Not enough.
As soon as he heard that answer, there was one thought that immediately popped into Midas’ head.
‘If the difficulty level of the quest is so damn right, that kind of sound comes out even after I spread it like this?’
The level of difficulty of this quest was incomparable to anything he had ever faced.
‘How much?’
Before imagining the difficulty, Midas recalled the days he had suffered.
Then I imagined a scene that suffered even more than that.
‘No this isn’t it. all right Does this make sense?’
The moment that imagination materialized, Midas immediately stopped imagining it.
‘Maybe I’m mistaken.’
Instead of a terrible imagination, I had another imagination.
‘It’s not something else that’s lacking… … Yeah level!’
happy imagination.
‘It could be because of my lack of level.’
NPC Ara’s remarks came because the quest performance level was not reached!
‘Common sense, this is correct! All right!’
Midas, who had come up with a plausible answer, said to NPC Ara with a look of having found some composure.
“It seems that I am unable to carry out the assigned task due to my lack of ability. Yes? So, can I practice more?”
‘Is it because the level is not enough? Is it okay if I come after leveling up?’
To Midas’ earnest wishes, NPC Ara answered.
“It’s true that you’re lacking in ability, and it’s true that you have to train, but you probably won’t be able to do it alone. My teaching will come in handy.”
[New quests have been updated in the Main Scenario Quests]
and an audible notification.
It was a death sentence.
[Teachings of Ara]
– Quest Grade: Main scenario
– Quest Level: Below level 229
– Quest Content: Learn new abilities by receiving Ara’s teachings before destroying the Altar hidden in the Land of Pioneers.
– Quest Reward: Skill Card Book (Ara)
! Upon completion of the quest, you can proceed to ‘Black Gold Valley’
and what appeared in front of you was the execution.
‘Under level 229… … shit.’
Level is not an issue.
“Of course my teaching will not be the solution. It just increases the odds a little bit. The being you have to face from this moment on is a very powerful being.”
coo-ooh!
As if responding to NPC Ara’s words, the bigger jackpot let out a fierce cry in one direction, letting us know that there was a huge threat there.
“ah…. .
Seeing this, Midas let out a deep sigh.
Panting!
Midas said to Lucky, who approached and rubbed his hair as if to comfort his owner.
king!
“Okay Lucky. This game is garbage.”
The complaints ended with that.
“What should I do anyway?”
In the end, things happened, and the way to overcome the game difficulty once set in God Wars was impossible unless the creator of this game, Kim Min-soo, came back alive from the grave.
In this situation, all Midas can do is just bump into him.
“I am taught by Ara.”
To that end, Midas first bowed his head in front of Ara.
Seeing that, NPC Ara nodded and then said.
“I will teach you one thing.”
Along with the words, NPC Ara lightly stroked the staff Midas was holding in his left hand.
through!
Then, the wand began to move like a snake and wrapped itself around Midas’ arm, starting with the wrist.
‘uh?’
NPC Ara continued talking while Midas was surprised by the sight and looked at his empty left hand.
“What I will teach you is how to deal with the great spirit that remains in this pioneer land.”
At the same time, a notification sounded in Midas’ ears.
[You have acquired the Great Mental Skill (temporary).]
Along with that notification, a skill window appeared in front of Midas’ eyes.
[Great Spirit (Temporary)]
– Skill Grade: Legendary
– Skill Effect: Embraces more powerful magic while accepting the Great Spirit. Greatly increases all magic attack power. Instead, skill cooldown, casting time and magic consumption increase. You can use both hands freely while using the skill.
great spirit!
‘Isn’t the skill effect the same as Ara’s three?’
It was not much different from the item options related to Ara that Midas had currently secured.
Therefore, Midas’ question was one.
‘Does this overlap?’
Will this option be applied together with the set item effect of Ara that Midas has?
‘If?’
And if it overlaps, what does that mean?
‘Crazy.’
To Midas, who is still pouring out unbelievable firepower, this is the equivalent of attaching tomahawk missiles to both sides of a winged tiger.
It was something beyond common sense.
Something that will make your mind go crazy with joy.
‘wait for a sec.’
Of course, Midas did not forget.
‘Even though they gave me this ridiculous skill, they said it wasn’t enough?’
Giving these great skills isn’t about making the game easier to eat raw.
On the contrary, it is proof that the difficulty is so high that it is difficult to progress the game even with this skill in the future.
At this point, Midas had no choice but to draw a new scenario.
‘Maybe it’s not just the difficulty of one quest this time… … .’
Perhaps, by clearing the main scenario quest, all the difficulties of the game itself might increase.
‘Could it be that the game was in normal mode until now, but is it going to be hell mode? Ay no way… … .’
Of course, Midas soon denied that imagination.
‘Then it’s a big deal. It’s okay.’
If that really happens, things won’t get sorted out just by complaining that it’s hard to play the game alone.
However, Midas’ expression, which denied that imagination, showed no signs of softening at all.
That’s how Midas said to NPC Ara with a firm expression.
“What kind of training should I do?”
‘First of all, let’s make sure to get the skill.’
The moment NPC Ara lightly waved at that question, the sand around Midas began to move and began to take on the shape of a hyena.
[Survive for 10 minutes.]
That was enough.
“…. You are enduring it.”
Midas started training.
8.
The best prey for those who wanted to become famous was the boss monster.
pioneer land.
Level 200 Now it was the same on this stage where he had to prove his worth.
The sweetest fruit players could eat here was, of course, the gold hyena, the boss monster.
Moreover, the uniqueness of the pioneer land gave more symbolism to the gold hyena.
“Catching a gold hyena doesn’t make you a star player, but all star players have caught a gold hyena.”
The basics of the basics you must have to become a star!
For that reason, the efforts of professional players to catch gold hyenas were indescribable.
“If you graduate from the pioneer land without catching the gold hyena, the sponsor won’t even give you an opponent. You have to catch it even if you have to play three times and three times. The competition is bound to be huge.”
The competition was just as high.
First of all, it was not easy to enter the gold valley, the stage where the gold hyenas appeared.
“Gold hyenas appear in Gold Valley once a day, and 12 teams can enter Gold Valley at once. Entry is only possible for those who have the qualifications to enter.”
In order to enter Gold Valley right away, you have to clear related quests, and these quests used to be randomly generated.
“Even if you just get the entrance qualification quest, you can earn 10,000 dollars.”
It’s like you can get a lot of money just by getting the entrance qualification quest.
“When it gets worse, it goes beyond that. If there is competition, that is.”
Even that, the minimum amount was around $10,000, but it was often traded for more than that.
Of course, as I said before, there were 12 parties who were eligible to enter, and there was only one gold hyena in front of them.
“The selected kids compete again. The blood won’t dry.”
In the end, there is only one party that can qualify to become a star and graduate.
“And if you somehow stand in front of a gold hyena, then your blood will dry up, not your mind.”
Even if he qualified by doing so, the gold hyena boss monster he faced was not an easy monster.
The first challenger has a 52.3 percent chance of succeeding in hunting.
The success rate of the second challenger was also very high, with a mere 67.7 percent.
“Honestly, wouldn’t it be much weirder to go through that process and not have much to do?”
In fact, that’s why hunting gold hyenas was even more valuable.
It goes without saying that a truly talented person survives in a fierce competition, not just luck.
It was also natural that he deserved to be in the spotlight.
– We are the first challengers! Shout out!
– Wow!
– Louder!
– Wow!
It was for this reason that the 25 players belonging to the tier 1 guild, the Blue Buffaloes Guild, were more excited than ever before the battle with the Gold Hyena.
– 5 people got game over.
b This is good enough.
ㄴ Re-suzy this time?
b threes. The first time was 8th place, the second time was 2nd place, but it failed.
ㄴ Finally, after three attempts, the Buffaloes Guild gets a chance.
ㄴ Look at the number of viewers exploding.
And it was for that reason that it received an indescribable amount of attention.
A riotous atmosphere in many ways.
In such an atmosphere, people were now only interested in one thing.
– Can you catch it? If you catch it, great!
Will the members of Blue Buffaloes be able to become new stars?
– If you don’t catch it, you really fall into the abyss.
Or will it remain as a mediocre stone that just crashed on the floor again.
To see it, more people started to come to Blue Buffaloes’ broadcast.
– Phase 3 has entered!
– Over 5 million real-time viewers!
The atmosphere also started to rise steeply.
– Got it!
– Knocked down!
Eventually, the world could see the moment the blue buffalo put an end to the third phase of the gold hyena.
– uh?
– what?
A different game.
9.
“The boss is in trouble.”
At the words of a subordinate, Park Young-joon showed a tap on the head with his finger instead of answering.
That was enough.
“ah.
‘You saw it.’
That subordinates don’t have to deliver the breaking news they brought.
Leaving behind such a retreating subordinate, Park Young-joon was full of worries in his head.
What filled Park Young-joon’s head was an incident that happened exactly 1 minute and 10 seconds ago.
The moment the blue buffalo hunted the gold hyena, the gold hyena’s body turned black.
‘Black gold.’
The new black gold hyena that appeared like that immediately annihilated the blue buffalo guild, which had become a mess.
What was even more surprising was what happened next.
‘After that, everything will be wiped out.’
After the Blue Buffaloes, players with the right to challenge one after another challenged, but there was no winner.
As a result, the boss monster raid ended with the word failure.
‘When the last 5 guilds remained, they were united.’
Even though 101 players from the last five surviving guilds attacked jointly, the result was a failure.
That’s how strong the Black Gold Hyena was.
Something that has never been possible in God Wars.
But the moment it happened, everyone who was watching it knew it right away.
‘It’s a BJ master mage.’
The cause of all these situations is none other than BJ Grand Mage.
Already, the God Wars-related community was referring to BJ Archmage, not the players from the failed Blue Buffaloes.
Of course, as time goes on, he will start asking for answers from BJ Archmage instead of just mentioning them.
Moreover, this incident was not just a simple incident.
‘BJ Archmage started to change the game itself called God Wars.’
So far, God Wars has never faced a new change within the game.
There was no concept of so-called updates.
But now the update has been made.
If such updates are made in all directions, the existing common sense or methods accumulated so far will become outdated.
Even more, God Wars wasn’t just a game.
A huge market has been formed based on this game.
‘Related stocks must be damned.’
Because of this, Park Young-jun could be sure that Wall Street traders would be the first to scream at the sudden appearance of uncertainty.
‘I’m afraid my phone will be fucked too.’
And I could be sure that Park Young-joon’s phone would scream as much as they did.
Ugh!
As I was sure, the phone started to vibrate, and text messages began to pile up like heavy snow in real time.
However, Park Young-joon sent only one look at the phone and did not pay any more attention to it.
Tuk-tuk!
He bangs his head repeatedly and just stares at the monitor in front of him in silence.
At that time, a change occurred on the screen that Park Young-joon was watching.
A new article was posted on the SNS that Park Young-joon was watching.
[President of Rising Star Channel, please answer the phone. I’ll give you anything just for
answering the phone.] I’ll pay the price if you let me talk to you, nothing else.
Something that would make ordinary people laugh.
However, Park Young-joon, who saw it, couldn’t help but laugh.
‘Now I have to talk.”
Because the owner of the SNS he was watching was Azmo.
