Chapter 154. < Episode 49. Faster than anyone Different from others (1). >
1.
– Did you see the BJ Grand Mage subjugation quest?
ㄴ The rumors were so crazy that when I saw it live, it was more than a rumor.
ㄴ What kind of ridiculous firepower came out because you were really determined and only dealt with from a distance?
On the 3rd, when BJ Grand Mage finished the live broadcast of the subjugation team quest, the world did not spare high praise.
– In the meantime, I thought BJ Grand Mage was great, but after doing the subjugation team quest, I knew how great it was.
In that background, there was a stage called the Subjugation Team Quest.
There was no shortage of things BJ Grand Mage had shown so far to say that everything was great.
No one denied that fact.
But on the other hand, there was no one who could explain for sure how great it was.
– To be honest, I can’t even guess the boss monsters I’ve caught so far.
ㄴ I just have no idea what the boss monster hunting itself is like.
ㄴ Well, only a few players have ever hunted boss monsters.
How strong are the triple head trolls and how strong the pack of dark wolves are?
However, the subjugation team quest was different.
It was a quest that anyone could do.
There are plenty of indicators for comparison.
It was the small park rankings that peaked the atmosphere.
[Calculated as 219th in Small Park Ranking BJ Grand Mage!]
The Small Park Ranking, which evaluates prospects below level 200, raised the ranking of BJ Grand Mage.
[BJ Grand Mage rose 317th in the small park rankings!]
[The highest ranking rise in the history of the small park rankings!]
That was an unprecedented rise that would go down in their history.
[Small Park Ranking ‘Applying a more reliable comparison index’]
The reason for the unconventional background was that there was a comparable index unlike before, and people were surprised again by such an unconventional ranking of the Small Park Ranking.
– Wow, was it like this?
– It was really unbelievable.
At the same time, people are starting to have expectations.
– Party play with below-average players is this much, but how good is it if you play properly?
– I caught more than 2,000 Red Koblins when I did the Subjugation Quest with only that Secore… … .
– Even if you hold hands with a tier 1 guild… … .
And that anticipation immediately created rumors.
“There is a saying among the top 10 guilds that you choose a partner. Where will you join hands?”
“From what I heard, I heard that you are collaborating with the Undead Guild? Isn’t that a place overflowing with tanks and healers? Besides, Clown and Lucky are both the gods of Fenrir!”
“There are rumors that the Explorers Guild covets it. BJ Grand Mage’s move is the same as the explorer’s guild’s goal. How much more, if the two of you hold hands and manage that scenario, it will make a lot of money?”
It’s like changing from “I wish it would” to “I will”.
It is a very natural thing to say in the process, but Lee Hyuk-ju also helped.
“According to my information network, there are rumors that I am collaborating with the Abyss Guild.”
“Abyss Guild?”
“Yes, the Abyss Guild suggested the best member. As you know, BJ Grand Mage is not a player who moves with money. They say they’ve already finished all the preparations for the hunt for the Red Goblin chieftain. We even prepared a party for 40 people.”
“40 people?”
“This time, after building the same number as the subjugation team quest, we will show our overwhelming power.”
“Ah, that’s why you intentionally showed the subjugation team quest!”
“Yes.”
The moment when plausible rumors are completed in one minute.
“Hyeonu-hyung thinks so too, doesn’t he? Yes?”
Jeong Hyeon-woo, who watched the whole process, said with a smile.
“Yes, I think so.”
‘Yes, talk freely.’
With that laugh, Jung Hyun-woo tilted his head back.
Then the thoughts in my head came to mind one by one.
‘Because if there’s a rumor that I’m playing in a party, it’s fine with me.’
First of all, there was nothing bad about the rumors going around right now from Jung Hyeon-woo’s point of view.
‘The more I look forward to playing in a party, the greater the impact when I defeat the boss in solo play.’
It’s good to have an impact in many ways.
And I also felt confident.
‘It’s possible if I do well.’
If you do well, that proposition will stick, but it was true that a good opportunity was given this time.
‘Legendary Epic is…….’
Even this time, something unimaginable took place.
At that point, Jung Hyeon-woo did not go deep.
‘…. Let’s pretend it doesn’t exist. From my point of view, no matter how much I think about it, I can’t come up with an answer.’
It is impossible to imagine the first case of God Wars.
So Jung Hyeon-woo thought of the next thing.
‘Rather than that, what can I get this time?’
How much will you sell this prepared menu for?
‘I’m sure the boss will take good care of me.’
Jung Hyeon-woo got up from his seat to decide.
“Hyuk-ju, I’m going in.”
‘Now then, shall we have a meeting?’

[Truth of Golem]
– Skill Rank: F
– Skill Effect: Increases the summoned golem’s stats. The number of golems that can be summoned increases by one every 100 levels.
!Summoning 2 golems, obtains the title of ‘Those Who Have Tasted the Truth of Golems’
!Summoning 3 golems, acquires the title of ‘Those Who Seek the Truth of Golems’
Midas twitched as he confirmed his newly acquired skill.
Panting!
Then, at the sound of Lucky’s breathing, Midas turned his head to Lucky and said,
“Okay Lucky. In the meantime, I had a hard time tanking against kids who didn’t even match the level. You won’t have to suffer like that in the future. From now on, two golems will tank.”
king!
“Yes, so you can put your mind at ease and wipe out monsters with your shadow from now on.”
king!
Midas nodded in satisfaction at Lucky, who barked vigorously as if he knew.
“Master, I am too!”
couw!
Midas smiled even deeper at the appearance of Gold and Jackpot, who showed their presence with all their might, as if they would not lose to Lucky’s momentum.
‘I can do anything with these guys.’
More confident than ever.
It was worth it.
‘The tanking has been secured.’
When there is one tank and when there are two, the tanking ability is more than doubled.
‘If you get a fire golem or an ice golem here… … .’
In addition, the tactical range that can be taken through the Golem’s Truth skill was wider than expected.
‘…. My magic power will run out.’
Of course, in order to exert all of that 100%, it takes magic power equivalent to that.
‘It’s going to cost a lot of potions for a while. I’ve been writing a lot lately.’
Midas, who had a sullen expression on his face that made the smile he had earlier look colorless, he immediately raised his head.
‘Don’t think bad thoughts, let’s focus on now.’
Midas, who came to his senses, began to do his work.
For the meeting, I accessed a private channel created by the Rising Star Channel.
Then, a greeting came out immediately.
– Wharton: It’s been a while. How were you?
Midas responded to the president’s greeting with a very calm expression, unlike before.
“Yes, I was fine. Except for the fact that I got sick from doing too easy things.”
‘A moderate bravado is helpful in life.’
A question came to Midas who started acting like that.
– Wharton: What’s the topic of the next raid broadcast? Is it the Red Goblin tribal chief raid?
Midas was not surprised by that question.
‘As expected, everyone thinks the same.’
Given the circumstances, it was only natural that the next target would be the chieftain of the Red Goblin tribe.
‘But you wouldn’t have imagined that I would catch it as a solo player.’
That’s why Midas was confident that the President of Rising Star Channel would be surprised by his solo plan.
‘Be prepared to be surprised.’
That was the moment.
The moment Midas is about to make a surprise declaration while imagining a wonderful picture in his head.
– Wharton: Are you going to hunt the Red Goblin chief solo?
In the chat that followed, Midas made a surprised expression and even asked back.
“How?”
The moment when the acting becomes nothing in an instant.
Conversely, the president of the Rising Star channel posted a chat as if Midas was trying to make a smile of conversion.
– Wharton: Considering BJ Grand Mage’s progress, I didn’t think he would catch it as a normal party play. Above all, if you prepared for party play, you must have contacted other guilds in some way. But there was no hint of that.
The moment he saw it, Midas agreed.
‘Yeah, I didn’t do anything, but there’s no way they’d suddenly think I was playing a party.’
Because it was a valid logic.
On the one hand, I admired it.
‘But still, to say so confidently… … You must have connections with famous guilds, right?’
Doesn’t saying this mean that the president of the Rising Star channel has frequent conversations with quite famous guilds?
‘Because he’s really great. Well, that’s why he’s getting such ridiculous fees from big companies like Gamma Pharmaceuticals and Blue Bull.’
The moment when the ability of the Rising Star Channel President becomes new.
“Since you know it, there is no need for a long explanation. As you said, I play solo. Of course it’s not the normal way. In any case, hunting is definitely possible.”
So Midas shrugged his shoulders and continued talking as if he couldn’t help it.
“Everything else, please plan at your discretion on the Rising Star channel as before. You can also decide the reward as you like.”
– Wharton: Currently, a proposal has come from Gamma Pharmaceuticals.
In the ensuing chat, Midas looked at the contents of the chat window.
‘gamma? Not Blue Bull?’
At the word gamma restriction that came up again, Midas’s eyes turned grim.
as if doubting something.
As if struggling to figure out its intentions.
– Wharton: If it’s a decent offer, I’ll ignore it, but they suggested a blank check. That’s for solo play.
But at those words that followed, Midas smiled.
“Oh, then of course we should get a request from Gamma Pharmaceuticals.”
‘Hey, I’ve come this far. A blank check!’
Aren’t giants now offering blank checks to take each other?
It goes without saying that a smile comes naturally.
“That way, Blue Bull will bet a little more later.”
Midas, intoxicated with the joy, quietly threw the words.
Of course, Midas did not forget.
“Of course, other advertisers would be nice too. Because the boss will negotiate well. I will fully believe in you and follow you.”
‘Thank you boss! If I get a chance later, I’ll buy you a proper meal!’
Keep in mind that all of this is thanks to the Rising Star Channel!
– Wharton: Now that we’re a team, it’s natural.
Midas smiled in response.
‘Yes, it’s a team.’
It was there.
‘This much is good for meeting time.’
Conversation beyond this would be a no-brainer.
It was like that when I was a professional baseball player.
Conversations with coaches were enough to talk about skills and sexual expectations, but private conversations became a problem.
“Then please take care of it.”
– Wharton: I see. Then, please let me know whenever a definite schedule comes. We will prepare it so that it can be performed live at any time.
“yes.
the moment the meeting ends.
– Wharton: And I will send you the item you requested then. Sorry for sending it late.
After leaving the last word, the president of the Rising Star channel disappeared from the chat window.
Seeing this, Midas tilted his head.
‘What did you ask for then?’
3.
[Elf’s Robe]
– Grade: Legendary
– Wearable level: 109 or higher
– A robe made of elven hair. It has mystical power.
– Strength +148
– Stamina +66
– Intelligence +161
– Magic +77
– Movement speed +12%
– Blink skill available when
equipped It was a memory of the times.
‘Chul-soo hyung ate something like this and almost ended his career as a player.’
The memory that a popular senior at the time received a Rolex watch from a fan and later became a big problem.
The world was like that.
A gift that goes beyond common sense is always poisonous.
Even if it is a gift given with good intentions, if the recipient thinks it is expensive, there will inevitably be a problem.
‘No, but how did you get this?’
Above all, it was difficult for Midas to see this as a gift from good will.
‘There’s no way I bought it on the Rising Star channel. Could it be that Azmo gave me a gift?’
The situation is highly likely to have come from Azmo’s side.
Then why the hell did Azmo give this gift?
‘I heard that advertisements are gamma constrained?’
Even more so, wasn’t Azmo on the side of Blue Bull?
By the time he reached that point, the answer had already been decided in Midas’ head.
‘If you sell it, you can open a chicken restaurant instead of chicken, but… … .’
No matter how expensive it is, it is too big to just eat it like this.
‘There’s no point in pretending, so let’s just return it.’
If you eat this, you will definitely get sick, so you have to return it.
Panting!
Lucky approached the troubled Midas and sat down nearby.
And Gold and Jappat also saw the owner’s worried expression and came closer, revealing their respective presence.
couw!
“Master, no matter what hardships and adversities there are, you will surely be able to conquer them!”
At that encouragement, Midas smiled lightly.
“What are you worried about…. .
Then, a picture began to form in Midas’ mind.
At that moment, Midas secretly touched my headband,
‘Camouflage.’
In that state, Midas looked at the gold and recalled the newly acquired elven robe item.
‘Blink.’
Finally, Midas looked at Lucky and at the Jackpot sitting on Lucky’s head.
At that moment, Midas made a new expression.
‘…. Doesn’t it wear out just because you use it once?’
The expression on which he had no intention of returning it right away.
