Chapter 102. < Episode 33. Unexpected (1). >
1.
If you ask what is the most popular content on WordsTube, everyone will answer the same.
“The boss catching is broadcast in real time.”
It’s a boss monster raid live broadcast.
In fact, not only did it have the highest revenue compared to the number of viewers, but the influx of viewers was also qualitatively different from other content.
Advertising costs were also the highest.
“But, surprisingly, there aren’t many live performances.”
However, unexpectedly, there were fewer cases of live broadcasting of boss monster raids than expected.
Rather, the main thing is video, not live.
The reason was simple.
“Well, that is normal. It’s on a different level in the first place.”
Live broadcasting and video production have different levels of difficulty.
Unlike videos that can only be edited and uploaded after filming in the first place, live has many limitations.
“Nobody knows when the boss monster will appear right now, right? I can only guess.”
First of all, the most troublesome thing was that I didn’t know when and at what moment the live performance would start.
This means that advance notice cannot be given.
“But there’s no way we can advertise when we’ll catch the boss monster. Even if it does, it’s just calling the hyenas.”
No, giving advance notice was like announcing to the whole world that a boss monster would appear there.
Raid risk goes up infinitely.
For that reason, most of them announced the fact that they were live the moment they hunted the boss monster.
It’s like a guerrilla event.
It’s obvious, but in many ways, the number of viewers and the box office had no choice but to suffer losses.
– Is it today?
– There’s only one hour left.
From that point of view, BJ Grand Mage’s Centaur Night Raid had all the conditions for box office success.
– The Blue Stone Golem also looked like a huge guy, but that was just a warm-up… … .
– I heard you went to the golden smithy of BJ the other day?
– So, are you going to get Tunga’s wand?
First of all, the appetizer served before the main dish was different.
– I’ll finally see you live.
– I couldn’t watch BJ Grand Mage’s live because I didn’t have the right time to meet them, but I’ll watch them properly this time!
And the self-awareness he has accumulated so far is also different.
– More than that, what kind of monster is a Centaur Knight?
– Seeing that it was revealed in advance, it must be clear that it is a very special monster.
Lastly, even the live schedule was revealed accurately in a situation where the material was unique.
“president! 100,000 people logged in 10 minutes before the start of the broadcast!”
Opening 100,000 people.
It was thanks to that reason that a huge number of viewers logged on even though BJ Grand Mage hadn’t shown his face yet.
“A 100,000 opening is a 1 million broadcast, right?”
Moreover, in Words Tube Live, there was a rule that most live broadcasts with 100,000 openings had the highest number of viewers reaching 1 million.
“If we only shoot 1 million live, it will be our channel’s first, right?”
“The channel rankings will go up quite a bit, right?”
“I have to watch this while eating chicken, but I can’t because I’m an employee.”
It was natural for the live team staff ahead of the live as well as the other department staff who came to watch to show excitement.
But Park Young-joon was different.
Tuk-tuk!
He tapped his temple with his finger as if he didn’t like something.
“What’s the matter again this time?”
Seeing that, a polite subordinate asked a question, and Park Yeong-joon answered the question bluntly.
“My stomach was bloated as if the meal I had this morning was not good.”
The subordinate nodded at the all-too-ordinary answer.
The conversation ended there.
My subordinates focused on my monitor, and Park Yeongjun also focused on my monitor.
Tuk-tuk!
Since then, Park Young-joon has repeatedly shown a bad look, but no one has questioned the fact.
I’m not feeling well, what can I say?
‘I feel bad.’
In fact, Park Young-joon felt bad.
But, as he said, it wasn’t because of breakfast.
‘Why did you ask about time?’
BJ Grand Mage asked a question while announcing the live date.
Does it matter if the live broadcast time is different from what you expected?
When he was asked that question, Park Young-joon noticed.
‘Usually this is the case… … It’s a case where it takes a long time to attack.’
The fact that this boss monster attack is quite burdensome even for BJ Archmage.
‘Because tapping on a stone bridge takes a long time.’
In fact, the most important thing to keep in mind when hunting difficult boss monsters was not to rush, and for that reason, the live broadcast time naturally increased when facing difficult boss monsters.
‘Not a good thing.’
In addition, the raid broadcasting time was long, so there was nothing good about it.
The longer it is, the harder it is to attack.
It was hard to see something like that for a long time.
‘Live is 20 minutes, I like it. The best is 14 minutes and 12 seconds.’
Therefore, 15 minutes or so was usually evaluated as the optimal time.
That’s why most of the videos on the Rising Star channel are cut within 10 minutes.
‘If you don’t listen to about 3 songs, it’s meaningless after that. There’s no way BJ Grand Mage wouldn’t know that.’
Nevertheless, there was only one reason why BJ Grand Mage made such a statement.
‘You’re overdoing it.’
This boss monster raid is overdoing it in many ways.
‘Exactly, I overreacted.’
It was none other than Park Young-joon who suddenly brought up the story of an advertisement, so the BJ master mage overscheduled the schedule.
‘The pride of BJ Archmage was more than I thought.’
As a result, because of himself, the BJ great mage ran out of control.
That was the reason why Park Young-joon was not feeling well.
There was only one thing that soothed Park Young-joon’s stomach.
‘I’m glad I asked for an advertisement.’
It is said that one harvest was obtained from these maneuvers.
‘He’s also a pretty big guy.’
One of the subordinates said to Park Young-joon.
“BJ Grand Mage has accessed our channel.”
2.
[You have entered the restricted area.]
The moment you set foot in the restricted area for the first time in a long time, the black mist and wind colored the world of Midas black.
‘Looks like it’s gotten worse than before.’
In addition, the black fog wind was worse than when it came before.
If you stretch out your hand, you can’t see it very well.
– Oh my God, isn’t my screen weird right now?
– No, what are all these places?
Players who witnessed such a scene for the first time could not hide their surprise.
Those who knew even a little about God Wars couldn’t help but know how deadly this black world is for players.
– Wasn’t it a honey dungeon? What kind of dungeon is this?
– Wouldn’t it be easy to just move, let alone hunt monsters?
– Is it a dungeon full of monsters?
Moreover, this restricted area has been known as a secret dungeon flowing with milk and honey.
The fact that BJ Grand Mage did most of the leveling up here created such rumors.
Midas opened his mouth to such a reaction from the viewers.
“The black fog is less windy than the last time I came. At the time, I couldn’t really see anything in front of me. Are you lucky?”
king!
“Alas, Lucky can’t speak. Gold, it must have been worse last time, right? huh?”
“Master is right!”
It was, of course, a bluff mixed with lies.
– Oh my God it was worse than this? isn’t it gura?
ㄴ Goo, that’s what BJ Lucky said!
b What did you say?
ㄴ BJ Grand Mage is right. Last time it was worse, so my back was broken while raising BJ Grand Mage.
ㄴ Hey, I wrote a lot of bullshit.
However, viewers who had no way of knowing that fact simply believed the words and vomited chatting based on it.
‘Yeah, I have to make fun points like this.’
Midas swallows a bitter smile as he sees it.
Swoop!
The necklace around his neck pointed in one direction with such momentum as to fly away at any moment.
Midas’s head also naturally moved in the direction the necklace was heading.
All I can see is the black world.
But Midas could see clearly.
[Centaur Knight (Lv109)]
!Using Assault and Crush skills
!Activates Haste skill when HP is below 70%
!Activates Fire Step skill when HP is below 20%
Centaur Knight.
The existence of a guy standing proudly in this black world.
‘It’s terrible.’
After confirming the setup of such a guy, Midas destroyed countless plans prepared in his head.
‘It’s the most terrible situation I’ve ever expected.’
What remained after that were the worst cases for Midas.
‘The basic movement speed is fast, but here, of course, the crush skill is built-in.’
It is also true that the basic skills, rush and crush, were skills that had a great synergistic effect.
Charge, which shortens the distance to the target faster, and Crush, which increases attack power the moment they collide.
‘Haste added from phase 2 onwards.’
What if Haste is added in that state?
I can guarantee that no player below level 100 will be able to escape from that attack.
Of course, it won’t be easy to stop the madman from running amok.
‘The last phase is the fire step.’
What if that fire step is also activated?
‘It’s a skill suitable for a stage where the flames spread.’
Moreover, the restricted area where the wind blows blocking the view was the best place to spread the flames as long as it was ignited.
At the same time, it is impossible to estimate how much the fire spread.
Even more so, in order to get out of the restricted area, shouldn’t we also have to work to find a gap in the barrier?
‘There was a reason that six people were the condition.’
In many ways, the additional compensation conditions were understood.
For normal players, it was impossible to catch even if 10 people rushed at it, not 6 people.
‘There is no time to relax.’
It was absurd to be relaxed against such a Centaur Knight.
It was obviously fatal.
‘It’s a live broadcast after receiving an advertisement for the first time… … You
can’t miss it The criterion that separates a professional player from a star player is a star.
And the thing that most clearly reveals that star quality is fun.
In fact, in God Wars, it was difficult to gain great popularity just by catching it well with excellent abilities.
Rather, in the process, you have to communicate with the viewers, joke with them, joke with them, and induce them to respond.
It was like a star with excellent showmanship on stage who was loved much more than a star who could sing well.
No, there were quite a few who became star players with such showmanship and communication skills even without skills.
The problem was that those things were available when you could afford them.
‘I can’t help it. I’m going to grab each one.’
And the Centaur Knight, whom Midas was facing now, did not allow such leisure.
That was why Midas was the worst.
‘Advertisers don’t even have to ask. If I care about that for no reason, it’ll only get complicated in my head.’
In today’s broadcast, Midas will really have to focus only on hunting.
‘good.’
After making up his mind, Midas took a deep breath and spoke.
“First of all, I have a few things to tell you.”
At that, a question mark filled up the chat window, and instead of answering the question mark, Midas expanded his inventory and took out a bottle of potion from it.
– What potion?
– uh? It’s a silver mushroom potion!
– Silver mushroom potion? A 600 gold magic buff potion?
Then, after one shot of the potion, he took out a new potion.
One bottle, two bottles, three bottles, and four bottles.
– You’ve already drunk two thousand dollars’ worth of this?
– Why do you only dope when you say you have something to say?
After drinking four bottles like that, I started taking potions out of my inventory once again.
After Midas took out the potion, he put it in the palm of his hand and brought it to Lucky’s mouth.
little bitch!
As if Lucky had waited, he began licking the potion with his tongue.
This time it was five bottles.
– Wow, I spent a good 2,000 dollars for the potion this time too.
– How much do you spend on starting doping alone?
Then Midas handed the potion bottle to Gold.
Again, the number is five.
– No, how strong of an opponent are you spending over 5,000 dollars on starting doping alone?
– Wow, it’s the first time I’ve seen doping like this live since Azmo.
In front of this long doping, viewers poured out chatting that seemed absurd.
That was the moment.
“Originally, we leave time before and after the live broadcast, but this live broadcast was caught in a hurry due to various circumstances. In that situation, a pretty important promise came into being.”
While Gold was drinking the potion, Midas spoke to the viewers.
“For that reason, I will do my best to finish today’s raid quickly.”
At that, the chat window showed a reaction as if it was still difficult to understand.
– No what do you mean?
– Should I use my original power?
– Did you usually do it while playing?
Only one was different.
[Azmo sponsored 1,000 dollars.]
[Azmo: I know that situation well.]
Only Azmo understood Midas’ feelings.
[Azmo: I deliberately do not do my best to catch up while communicating with viewers in a relaxed way, but I can’t help it when I’m in a hurry. It’s okay.]
Only then did people know.
What is Midas trying to do?
Midas told them clearly.
“I apologize in advance to those who have been waiting for today’s broadcast for a long time. Today’s broadcast is very short. Sorry to those who ordered chicken pizza.”
The horse and Midas shouted.
“Mercenary fever!”
‘It’s done in 10 minutes.’
