Chapter 395. < Episode 123. Legacy of Barman (5). >
11.
A forest where everything is frozen as if an ice age had arrived.
Fire!
In the blink of an eye, the forest became a burning forest with flames rolling over.
A marvelous sight that you cannot help but be amazed at and dare not believe even when you see it in real time.
“It’s a change!”
“The forest has changed!”
But to the players in the scene, it was just a frightening sight.
“Monster changes!”
It wasn’t just the forest that changed, but so were the myriad monsters placed throughout the forest.
big!
All of the white-haired Ice Trolls, covered in ice armor, are Fire Trolls whose entire bodies are blazing.
thud!
Ice golems, which boasted a heavy weight, became fire golems that boasted a hot presence.
Fire!
The ice spirits placed here and there have been changed into fire spirits that heat everything they touch.
“Stop fighting! Stop fighting!”
“Everybody back off!”
In the face of that change, there was only one thing players had to do.
“Change the settings first!”
Preparing to fight against the changed world.
It was never easy.
It would be nice if you were just taking a break.
“Meanwhile, tanks buy time!”
However, for those who faced changes during battle, changing the item settings was a risky task.
There were people who didn’t even try.
“If there are fire-type mages, they will only get in the way, so log out!”
Those whose innate nature cannot be changed The opportunity itself to participate in battle did not come to them.
Of course, the opposite was also the case.
Those who do not need any change in setting and no change in essence.
For those who can freely use magic of all the attributes of a great mage, changing the forest was okay.
“Sorcerer goes into casting!”
Sose he was.
In front of the forest that suddenly started to burn, he just had to recite a new magic spell without making any changes.
“Blizzard and Ice Storm.”
The magic that will cool this burning world.
Eventually, the moment the magic casting ended, everyone shouted.
Sorcerer casting is over!”
“Everyone, don’t get caught up in it!”
It was a warning not to get caught up in wide-area magic, nothing special about it.
“never! It’s dangerous even if you pass by!”
However, the voices of the All-Star team members giving out that warning were higher than ever.
And those who were leaving were busier than usual.
“Because now I’m using an extreme cane!”
The reason is none other than the extreme staff in Soseo’s hand.
“Ignoring the basic 30% of magic defense!”
No matter what the target is, the magic power when holding the staff that makes you ignore a whopping 30% of defense is the feeling of hitting bones through flesh.
Not to mention, the person who held it was the one at the top of the group of wizards called the Sorcerer Wizard Guild.
“It has begun!”
The power of the blizzard and ice storm was revealed as a storm of ice and snow began to strike.
big!
The fire trolls, fire golems, and fire elemental beasts, whose momentum had been burning endlessly, began to show miserable appearances with screams.
“Wow, that’s awesome.”
“Dilryang is true?
“Even extreme areas will be easy.”
Even the same All-Star team members stuck out their tongues in front of that scene.
On the other hand, Gord smiled bitterly.
‘It’s bittersweet to have to give something like this to BJ Grand Mage.’
Now I have to hand over the precious thing that I got so hard to the BJ great mage.
In other words, Gord was convinced.
‘Still, there’s no way I could refuse it if it was an extreme stick.’
That his proposal would be an offer that BJ Grand Mage could never refuse.
12.
Kirik!
Park Young-joon appeared in the live broadcast room with the sound of the door opening.
“president!”
Upon his appearance, the staff asked questions as if they had been waiting.
“Have you seen the All-Star team video?”
“Right now, Soseo is going crazy with an extreme cane!”
The tone of urgency was evident in the voices of the staff asking questions.
It was worth it.
Everyone knows that the All-Star team wants a match-up against BJ Grand Mage to restore their honor.
In such a situation, Soseo, the best wizard of the All-Star team, got an extreme staff?
What that meant was obvious.
‘The All-Star team is holding each other properly.’
Regardless of whether or not the current story between the BJ Great Mage and the Undead Guild comes and goes, the All-Star Team does not give up, but instead grinds its teeth sharper and sharper in preparation for an opportunity.
Moreover, the tooth pulled out this time was too strong to just ignore it and move on.
know.
Park Young-joon calmly spoke to the concerned voices of his subordinates.
“Before the live broadcast, the All-Star team contacted me. I’ll give you an extreme stick, so fight for it.
“yes?”
The shocking information that did not suit his calm voice did not even bother his subordinates.
‘What are you giving me?’
‘Did I hear it right now?’
just freezes
Leaving the frozen subordinates behind, Park Yeongjun sat down in his seat.
Then he started tapping his right temple with his right finger.
Actually, there was nothing strange about the deal itself.
It was Park Young-joon’s plan to increase the ransom.
‘I thought he’d bring an extreme stick.’
But I didn’t know that such a powerful item would be presented.
‘I’m not going to negotiate.’
To be honest, there was no way for the Rising Star Channel to reject this offer.
If you refuse this offer, you will have to show off a weapon that goes beyond the extreme stick.
And in Park Young-joon’s head, such a weapon did not exist.
So, Park Young-joon did not worry about the rejection itself.
Tuk-tuk!
‘What do you like about the matchup theme?’
What I worry about is how to fight against the all-star team.
‘Excluding boss battles.’ Usually, if this is the case, the boss monster raid race will come to mind
, but it is impossible to go straight to the boss monster raid
when the current BJ Grand Mage or All-Star team has just entered the extreme zone .
‘It’s taking too much time.’
Even if it was possible, summoning the Guardian of the Fallen, the boss monster of the extreme zone, required considerable effort and effort.
‘The only ones worth catching are the spirit monsters, which are named monsters.’
In the end, the only card left is the spirit monster raid, a named monster that appears in small numbers whenever the environment in the extreme zone changes.
In fact, even for the spirit monsters, the hunting difficulty was not low compared to the moderate boss monsters.
There were not a few parties who were wiped out trying to catch it.
‘BJ Grand Mage must have the same thoughts.’
Of course, it was the BJ Grand Mage that was decided.
‘It’s almost time to come.’
And now, BJ Grand Mage will also read the email Park Young-joon sent and come to request a meeting.
ding!
At that time, a window appeared on the monitor that Park Young-jun was watching, indicating that an email had arrived, and Park Young-jun’s fingers stopped after checking the sender of the email.
13.
Roaring!
A forest that burns endlessly.
“Whoa.
Settled in the forest, Midas was clearly more agitated than the surrounding flames.
Whoa.
Enough to take a deep breath over and over again.
Panting!
“Master, are you worried about anything?”
To the extent that Lucky and Gold send a worried look at him.
couw!
– I understand what you mean, but I don’t think you’re out of your mind. It’s just kind of weird.
Conversely, Jackpot and Cane are contemptuous.
To that extent, Midas’ condition was not very good.
It had to be.
‘It’s an extreme stick!’
It wasn’t anything else, because the All-Star team gave me an extreme cane as a condition for an event match.
‘If I sell it, I can fold the game!’
If you put it on an auction house and sell it, it’s strange if you don’t get excited about giving out an amazing item that can be sold at a higher price than you can imagine.
“Whoa.”
‘Let’s relax, relax. I can’t show my crazy side to the boss.’
Of course, the excitement ended there.
Now, sooner or later, when the meeting starts and the boss appears in the chat window, I have to put on a more calm expression than ever before.
You’ve worked really hard.
And that wasn’t all.
‘And I have a lot to talk about.’
Currently, Midas needed a strong helper like an all-star team to capture the main scenario quest.
In other words, it means that we need to find a way to seek a better relationship than that based on this matchup.
It was a time when coolness was needed rather than excitement.
[Wharton connected.]
So, the moment a new person appeared in the chat window, Midas changed his expression.
With a calm yet slightly firm expression.
couw!
– Yes, you are right. I’m sure you’re out of your mind
While Jackpot and the wand stuck out their tongues at that expression, Midas greeted the chat window.
“how are you?”
Then came the answer.
– Wharton: Yes, I’m fine.
– Wharton: Did you get the mail I sent you?
Midas’ expression changed at that question.
“yes. I never thought that an extreme stick would come out.”
A look of shock.
– Wharton: It was a bit shocking.
The president responded to that expression, and Midas nodded and threw a comment.
“I never thought it would come out like this. It would have been difficult to get it. There must be other conditions, right?”
It was thrown as it was.
It’s like throwing garbage without meaning.
– Wharton: Yes, BJ Archmage put the conditions as expected.
‘huh?’
However, the answer came right away to the tossed words.
– Wharton: Do not sell to other players, let alone the Auction House. That was the condition.
‘uh?’
And at the answer that came out, Midas’ expression hardened.
‘what?’
The brain was, of course, white.
In the meantime, the boss continued to speak.
– Wharton: From their point of view, they are reluctant to set the price when a transaction is made.
– Wharton: So I entered into a non-sale treaty and accepted it.
That explanation made good enough sense.
The guilds with the extreme wand have increased the value of the extreme wand through collusion.
In such a state, there is no way to see a guy who suddenly jumps out and ruins its value, isn’t it?
It is common sense to put some restrictions on it.
– Wharton: BJ Grand Mage has nothing to sell for money.
Even more so, there was no reason for BJ Daemage, who is recognized as a rich man, to sell an extreme cane just for money.
In many ways, it is an unreasonable restriction.
‘What are you talking about?’
Of course, from Midas’ point of view, it was a crazy and crazy restriction.
‘Then what do you do with it?’
Constraints shatter the imagination of trying to enjoy some luxury by selling it someday, if not immediately, to buy a house, buy a car, go on a blind date, date, get married, give birth to a son and daughter, and even get pocket money when grandchildren appear later.
‘I don’t have anything to write about?’
Crucially, from the point of view of Midas, who had obtained Barman’s staff, there was really no reason to use the extreme staff.
It means that he is not even capable of eating even a little bit of flesh.
At that moment, a switch was turned on in Midas’ head.
‘Let’s do it.’
Let’s find a way not to eat this.
‘I’d rather have something else.’
In exchange for things you can’t eat or sell, let’s get something we can get our hands on, even if it’s just pennies.
“As expected, the staff of extreme is very precious and precious. I see you put restrictions in this way.”
– Wharton: The legendary items you get from now on have a different value than those you got earlier.
“Nothing. So, do you really need to go this far for such a valuable item?”
– Wharton: Yes?
Midas’ remark immediately raised questions from the president.
‘Whoa.’
In front of that question, Midas took a deep breath and continued.
“The person who gives this is uncomfortable, but can the person who uses it feel comfortable using it?”
Then, he said something he hadn’t intended to say.
I don’t really need it.”
Along with the words, Midas quietly picked up the staff that had been put down on the floor.
‘shit.’
The moment when the original plan to say, ‘It’s not polite to refuse sincerity, I’ll try to use it well’ while hiding the new cane, becomes a blank sheet.
‘I don’t know.’
On the white paper, Midas drew a new plan.
“Let’s not make it difficult for nothing, let’s go easy. It’s my wish for the all-star team to broadcast with me, so instead of granting that wish, the all-star team should grant my wish once when I need it later. How about a wish versus a wish?”
14.
– How about a wish versus a wish?
The moment that comment came out, I pulled back the hand I had placed on Park Young-joon’s keyboard for a while.
His hand, pulled back like that, was weak, but really weak, but trembling.
‘oh my god.’
That was about it.
‘Did you draw a picture like this?’
It was a surprise to turn down the irresistible offer of the extreme wand, and a surprise to have a card to turn down the offer.
However, if it had been this far, it was a category that everyone could think of.
Even if you do this and that, doesn’t it mean that the cause itself has been created?
However, BJ Grand Mage went one step further.
‘By holding the All-Star team in your hands, of course, you can keep the All-Star team in check in the future.’
Through the card of wish, he wants to turn the obstacles he originally wanted to get rid of into obstacles for those who attack him.
Of course, this wish card could only be used once, and the range or effective time it could be used was not long.
‘Anyway, it’s the end. After the all-star team, the next enemy is actually the 10th guild.’
But just as you don’t need to consider the idea of saving fuel at the end of a race, you don’t have to worry about range or effective time.
In many ways, it was like getting a trump card on the spot at an exquisite moment.
‘It’s really great.’
If you don’t shudder, that’s a strange thing.
It was only after the thrill stopped and the trembling of his fingers stopped that Park Young-jun put his hand on the keyboard.
– Wharton: That’s a good suggestion. It will be an offer that the All-Star team will never be able to refuse.
‘The All-Star team has no ability to pay more than this ransom. You’ll get a deal eventually.
After that, I asked the last question.
– Wharton: So what would you do?
Anyway, a fight with the all-star team is unavoidable, so it’s time to decide the event.
To that question, BJ Grand Mage answered without hesitation.
– It will be difficult for both sides to catch the boss mob right away, so let’s go to the named monster raid race. The one who catches the spirit monster that appeared the moment the forest changes the fastest wins.
It was, in fact, an absurd proposition.
Hasn’t it already been proven in the White Desert that no matter how great a BJ master you are, you can’t catch it faster than the All-Star team?
However, Park Young-jun did not worry.
‘If you see these words coming out, you have confidence.’
The BJ Grand Mage he knows is someone who never fights losing.
And he had never lost a fight before.
– Wharton: Yes, I will deliver it like that.
After finishing the meeting like that, Park Yeongjun stood up.
With a smile deeper than ever.
