Raid Control (2)
‘Western Country Free Pass?’
It was no wonder that Dex Sensitivity was surprised.
Only the Ascension Guild could freely use all of the hunting grounds occupied by the Western Kingdom.
“Where did you get this?”
“I picked it up. In Atogram. So I took the train to the West Country. If you help me, I’ll let you use this. “It’s not a bad deal for you either.”
Sirone spoke according to plan.
The reason the little witch handed over a physical item rather than an electronic card was to hide her identity.
Dex Sensitivity looked at the cards again.
‘It’s not impossible to pick it up if it’s in the form of an item. But that’s Yahweh 2?’
Isn’t it too elaborate to be a coincidence?
‘There is a dark side that I don’t know about. Insider traders in Geumhwaryun and Ascension. Is this the ship of ascension? No, maybe Yahweh 2 was the Western Kingdom and had infiltrated Geumhwaryun…
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t come to a conclusion unless I knew the context.
‘Yeah, it’s not something I care about. The problem is the Seoguk Free Pass. With this, you can raise your level in the most efficient hunting ground. The items you get there are bonuses…
After exchanging glances with Code Name Mafia, Dex Sensitivity looked back at Sirone.
“What are the conditions? “If you hand over this free pass to us, what should we do for you?”
“I want to get two items. Michelan and Donatello. “If you find this, I’ll give you a free pass.”
The mafia, who had an absurd expression on his face, laughed.
“ha ha ha! What nonsense? Michelan and Donatello? Do you know what the percent chance of getting a legendary item is? Plus, it’s at mythic level difficulty. This has nothing to do with level. It adjusts automatically. “It would be quicker to pay a large sum of money to buy it.”
According to Fermi, it is estimated that 12 of the four major legendary items have been released in High Gear.
‘It’s probably monopolized by a specific guild.’ If Geumhwaryun owns Raphael and Da Vinci, Seungcheon should have Michelan and Donatello.
Those who knew the internal situation would never hand over items to Dongguk.
Dex Sensitivity added.
“I know what you’re thinking. You want to equip all four legendary items. But it’s a dream. “It’s a feat no one has been able to accomplish in High Gear.”
“Let me hunt Ergos. “Once you try it, if you decide it’s impossible, you can give up.”
Sirone placed hope in his own senses.
‘As my sense of time became more sensitive, space opened up. Even in real life, the next second was Park Ji.’
Clearly, this place was different from reality.
However, it was ironic that a new world could be opened through the senses.
‘Perhaps…
the real world is also a simulation when viewed from a greater distance.
Shirone decided to focus on the goal at hand, stopped thinking and made a realistic calculation.
‘The combination of Sipok and Park Ji opened the doorway. To put it in high gear, it has the authority of a programmer.’
You may be able to control the raid.
“Let me do it. Because it will never cause any harm. “The lower the level, the better, right?” Myth level hunting grounds had difficulty adjusted according to the average level, so just being strong wasn’t everything.
“…Let me talk to you for a moment.”
Mafia and Dex Sensitivity returned to their colleagues and held a meeting for about 10 minutes.
Dex sensibility came to Sirone.
“Okay, let’s do it. But if we don’t see any hope in the first round, we’ll quit. “Because I don’t want to waste time.”
“that’s enough.”
The party of 8, including Yahweh 2, left De Mokrash and headed to the hunting ground.
Mafia asked.
“What level did you say you were?”
“Level 100.”
“Then, 10 selective options were opened. What options are you equipped with now?”
“Exo Barrier. Hawkeye. booster.”
The Exo Barrier creates a shield for 1 second, but consumes a lot of power.
The Hawkeye provided wide-area vision with increased speed, and the booster was a rocket engine.
“Hmm. It’s a level 70, 80, and 100 level option. Well, it’s efficient for single player. But it’s different at a party.”
Dex sensibility instructed.
“First, remove the exo barrier and change to constant speed driving mode. “Because you may run out of power while hunting.”
Constant speed driving mode, activated at level 30, can save power when traveling long distances.
“huh. “I’ll change it now.”
“When you arrive at the hunting ground, take out the constant speed driving mode again and turn on drone communication. “If you don’t know where the creatures are in advance, your party will be destroyed.”
Sirone nodded.
“What about the other two slots that provide infrared vision and reduce aircraft noise? Ah, articulation mode. Leave it at that. “This would be the best at level 100.”
“Well, they’re all auxiliary functions. But shouldn’t there be a turbo? just in case.”
“Even if level 100 uses turbo, it’s still there. This is the option most often chosen in duels. Rankers sometimes choose from raids. Besides, we are all above level 230. “I don’t expect any damage from you from the beginning.”
Codename Sona intervened.
“It’s better to focus on survival first. If you die, the difficulty level will increase. In fact, increased hearing will be more helpful for survival than drone communication, but if you provide drone communication, we
can change one option.”
“okay. “I am the guide.”
“yes. Haha, honestly, I don’t know. “I can’t believe you entrusted guidance to someone who is new to Ergos.”
Since they had nothing to lose anyway, the plan went ahead as is.
The place we arrived at was a huge 80-meter-high cave carved into a natural cliff.
‘Sanctuary of Ergos.’
Dex Sensitivity said.
“All creatures in High Gear change their patterns through genetic algorithms.”
This was a fact that Sirone also knew from the time he hunted metal rats in Iron’s hometown.
“The key is learning and evolution, but there is something called mutation probability. “Ordinary creatures have a mutation rate of less than 10 percent.”
Although creatures do not actually reproduce, data remains and is passed on to the next generation.
“But Ergos’ mutation probability is a whopping 50 percent. “It is impossible to predict how it will evolve with each generation.”
Sirone understood. “
It means you don’t know
what’s in this cave until you go in.”
“okay. This is why mythic-level creatures are impregnable. “Because there is no standardized pattern, you cannot memorize strategy and have to fight purely by intuition.”
Sirone, who roughly guessed the level of difficulty, went into the cave with his group.
-The raid begins.
As an event message appeared, the scenery changed and information from the outside world was blocked.
“drone.”
Sirone launched a small aircraft using drone communication, which is activated at level 40.
Dex Sensitivity said.
“The mafia will give instructions using wide area communications. “Other members, including you, have not added communication options, so you have to concentrate whenever instructions are given.”
It was clearly a luxury to include a communication function in the selective option, which was limited to three slots.
However, as the level increases, options that integrate various functions become available. A representative example is Magnan, which is activated at level 260 and includes most communication functions.
‘That’s why everyone says Magnan Magnan. ‘You can start playing in earnest from level 260.’
Without Magnan, which covers not only the Drone Hound satellite but also short and long distance areas, it would not be able to perform particularly well in large-scale guild battles or solar battles.
“Let’s go. Time doesn’t matter. You can try again as much as you like. However, if you die, you respawn outside the cave, so reducing mistakes is a top priority.”
In that sense, the role of a guide was important.
Sirone flew the drone into the cave and guided it to a direction where there were no creatures as much as possible.
‘It’s better to avoid fighting.’
The average level of the creature is set to be 50 levels higher than the average level of the party.
The difficulty level has been lowered thanks to Yahweh 2, but it would have been poisonous when dealing with Ergos.
‘Because the boss creature is 100 levels higher.’
If even one person dies, the probability of clearing converges to 0, so the party was cautious.
“Now.”
When the mafia selected a target and gave instructions, six people rushed in at the same time and destroyed the aircraft.
Kiik!
As the blood dried, the Mafia group realized that the rumors about Yahweh 2 were true.
‘Tactical perfection is understandable, but this guy… How does he know the way?’
For someone trying Ergos for the first time, it was difficult to even memorize the complicated maze-like path.
‘It’s this way.’
Sirone was feeling the code.
‘Every code has intention. Even if a creature’s pattern evolves like a living thing, when viewed as a whole, it is just a network. And the form of that network
is…
probably the designer’s intention.
‘It’s not cold.’
I could feel the operator’s feelings.
‘It works so that no matter how much you increase the difficulty, there is never a 0% chance.’
A fact that perhaps even the parties involved are unaware of.
‘I really like it. This world is in high gear. Users who enjoy high gear.’
In addition, the point where one can feel the designer’s intention was said to be Sirone’s level of granularity in reality.
‘you can do it.’
At that moment, the cave shook.
“come! “Everyone get ready!”
A machine’s voice was heard in the pitch-black darkness, undetectable even by infrared vision.
-Who is trespassing on God’s sacred land?
The Mafia gave instructions via wide area communication and Sona fired flashbangs into a pile.
A flash of light exploded.
What revealed its identity was its huge eyes.
-You insignificant creatures!
And it was a steel bridge that stretched out in four directions around the eye and held on to the cave.
“Close to Type C! It’s a mobile war! “Focus on dodging!”
As soon as the order was given, tentacles with steel claws flew in from behind Ergos.
bang! bang! bang! bang!
The party of eight scattered in all directions, and small creatures appeared from the crevices of the cave.
A fierce battle began.
The key was to hit the cave wall with its four legs, chase down the retreating Ergos, and hit the bullet.
“damn! too fast!”
The creatures were in the way, and no damage was done to the skeleton except the eyes.
At that time, Sirone jumped in alone.
“You idiot! “Following instructions…!”
The horse stopped and Sirone rushed towards Ergos, dodging dozens of tentacles.
“How?”
Bulletin boards were overflowing with information about people having special abilities over time and space.
However, the movement path seen by Yahweh 2 now was completely different from jumping through space.
‘How do you know the pattern?’
Also, the appearance reminded a specific user of a person who was thrilled while watching the broadcast screen.
“Operator…
-Kaaaaaa!
As Sirone closed the distance, Ergos fought back by shooting beams from his eyes.
Dex Sensitivity opened his mouth in a daze.
‘The pattern has already changed.’
Normally, it would take 20 minutes just to track Ergos to the end of the cave.
‘can do.’
He shouted with confidence.
“let’s go! Come on!”
Sirone was lost in thought as the seven people followed behind and destroyed the creature.
‘Why snow?’
The evolved form created in 50% of mutations is the eye.
‘Because it is the most suitable form for accepting photon signals. So…
why God?
Sirone had a hunch.
The secret of the outside world he longed for might be here.
“Yahweh2! Now! Destroy it!”
After a 7-kilometer chase, Sirone approached Ergos.
‘Not yet.’ Even if you destroy the Eye of Ergos here, you won’t be able to get Michelan.
A feeling close to certainty.
‘Probability is mathematics… but
what determines the probability is a quantum signal that is extremely uncertain in the mind.
Sirone’s eyes brightened.
‘Now!’
This point was Michelan.
When Suicide’s cold weapon pierced his eyes, Ergos’ whole body trembled as if he had been electrocuted.
?Kiaaaaa!
Amid the roar that shook the cave, the Mafia group confirmed the information in augmented reality.
?Unidentified item drop: Legendary level.
“…Nonsense.”
It was a 0.001 percent chance.
