BJ Archmage - Chapter 124
Chapter 124. < Episode 40. Illusion (1) >
1.
– Thank you for giving me a good opportunity. For this reward, we have an elf’s boots in mind. Please answer when the story is finished.
call and bet.
Park Young-joon laughed lightly at the reaction of the other party, who was so plain.
That laugh was proof.
‘Is there still a lot of stake?’
Evidence that Park Young-joon clearly grasped the intentions of the other party.
‘If you come out like this, I’ll be grateful.’
And the evidence that tells you that the best scenario among the various scenarios that Park Young-joon thought of unfolded.
It was true that the side with the higher stakes had an advantage in the game.
‘Those who rely on stakes are called Hogu in other words.’
In other words, it also meant making more money.
After thinking so, Park Young-joon immediately spoke to his subordinate.
“Send an email to BJ Grand Mage.”
“Mail? What mail?”
“Let’s have a meeting.”
Afterwards, the subordinate nodded and asked again.
“What should be the topic of the meeting?”
An out-of-the-ordinary conversation.
“Like the last time, let’s announce the boss monster raid in advance and write a live broadcast.
“yes?”
However, Park Young-joon’s words stopped the subordinate’s speech.
While Park Young-joon tilted his head at the sight, the subordinate opened his mouth with a firm expression.
“excuse me…. Isn’t that asking too much?”
“swarm?”
“It was such a mess the other day because of the advance notice, but if you ask for one more time…. Aside from rejecting it, I thought BJ Grand Mage would be offended.”
It was a fair opinion.
The relationship between Rising Star Channel and BJ Grand Mage was clearly the BJ Grand Mage.
Let him suffer like this again! Asking for a favor is an ordinary office worker going to the chairman and changing the company like this! It’s no different than saying.
“It’s not like BJ’s great mage has a good personality, right?”
Moreover, judging from BJ’s actions so far, his personality was closer to the other side than to the good side.
Park Young-joon answered the concerns of such a subordinate.
“don’t worry. Rather, from the perspective of BJ Grand Mage, the moment we bring out the contents, we will praise you.”
“A compliment?”
Park Young-joon confidently said to a subordinate who asked back with an expression of disbelief.
“Do you want to bet? I could bet my salary that BJ Grand Mage would make this offer first. Maybe you should suggest a live meeting with us first?”
It was then.
“The president, BJ Grand Mage, requested a live meeting.”
Prior to the words of another employee, the subordinate who was talking to Park Young-joon made an expression that saw something hard to believe.
And Park Young-joon said with a smile that was thicker than ever.
“Accept the request.”
2.
“Do you want to give a preview of the next boss monster raid?”
The question uttered by Park Young-joon immediately came up on the chat window, and the BJ master mage who saw it said with a surprised expression.
– How did you know?
At that answer, the Rising Star Channel staff looked at Park Young-joon with a surprised expression, and Park Young-joon said in their eyes.
“There was a time when I was BJ Grand Mage’s partner, and I need to know this much without saying it anymore.”
In the words that followed, BJ Grand Mage now spoke out her feelings.
– and!
What a surprise!
He vomited out such feelings.
Seeing that, Park Young-joon continued his momentum.
“And the monster you want to catch is probably a multi-headed troll.”
In the conversation that followed, BJ Grand Mage did not open his mouth any more.
There was no need for that.
“I have already aligned the story with my sponsor, Gamma Pharmaceuticals. He said he would give you elf’s boots as a reward if you proceed under the same conditions as the last live broadcast. Of course, success is the condition this time, not attempt, but as soon as BJ Grand Mage gives an ok sign, we will proceed.
Because BJ Archmage had one thing to say to Park Young-joon, who knew all the scenarios of BJ Archmage.
– That’s great, really. I couldn’t have imagined that you expected and prepared that far.
Admiration.
– I have nothing more to say. Thank you for your support this time and in the future.
and thanks.
The meeting ended like that, and BJ the Great Mage disappeared from the screen.
And all the staff in the left room looked at Park Yeongjun.
He was so shocked that he was speechless with an expression on his face.
One of the dogs barely spoke.
“It’s also Wharton.”
At those words, Park Yeongjun only smiled instead of answering.

“Ah.
After the live meeting with the Rising Star Channel, Midas let out a short breath.
At the end of the sigh mixed with various emotions, Midas smiled lightly.
‘also.’
At this meeting, Midas intended to announce the boss monster raid in advance once again.
‘You must have noticed everything.’
However, the president of the Rising Star Channel saw through everything perfectly.
Furthermore, the president of Rising Star Channel brought up the word multi-headed troll.
It was a reference to the triple-headed troll.
‘I’m guessing, but it’s great. Being able to imagine such a thing itself.’
It’s not really knowing the contents of the main scenario quest, it’s just the result of guessing, but thinking that far was enough to be called great.
And in line with that, he had already received a completely new request.
‘Elf boots.’
It’s not just an ordinary item, it’s one of the legendary items, the elf’s boots!
It is an item that is evaluated as the most valuable item among the legendary items that can be obtained here in Wood Village.
Retrieving it as a reward for a quest means that in many ways, a lot of tricks and efforts were put into it.
‘It’s an item this time too.’
Crucially, like the previous revolver skill, this reward was only good for Midas himself.
The fact that such a request was brought after negotiations with the advertiser means that a considerable effort was made for Midas.
‘There is no surprise.’
Anyway, one thing is for sure, there was no surprise party.
Isn’t the Rising Star channel anticipating all of Midas’ plans?
‘I have no choice but to do my best.’
In other words, from now on, Midas has to win the hearts of viewers and advertisers with his own ability instead of a surprise show in the next boss monster raid.
‘I have to practice for three days to bring out 100% of what I have.’
Midas shouted in such determination.
“Let the hunt begin!”
“Yes Master! I will gladly burn this body for the great legend of the master!”
At those words, as if Gold had waited, he appeared in front of Midas and ignited his fighting spirit.
Panting…….
On the other hand, Lucky, unlike usual, just stared at Midas as he stayed where he was.
“Are you lucky?”
Midas looked at Lucky with a question about that fact and was able to find it soon.
“ah!
The exclamation mark above Lucky’s head.
![The Dignity of the Beast]
!Evolved after winning 101 battles against 3 or more monsters at the same time
!
Midas smiled at the signal that the time for evolution had come.
‘Yeah, it’s better. Now, let’s leave all marketing and preparation to the Rising Star channel and focus on hunting.’
4.
Troll Forest.
Unlike other hunting grounds, the hunting level section that appears is level 20.
That’s why the players hunting here also used a different method from other hunting grounds.
It was the way that three or four parties of level 110 and level 120 shared information about trolls with each other while being hit by groups.
To put it simply, the smaller trolls were hunted by a level 110 party, and the larger ones were hunted by a level 120 party.
If not, the level 110 players would have no choice but to slow down the hunting speed.
Of course, that was obviously a loss for level 120 players.
Still, most suffered the loss.
Because those level 120 players also received such consideration when their level was low.
On the one hand, for level 120 players, reducing the number of trolls in this way was advantageous for smooth hunting.
In other words, the troll monster was that strong.
Even 1 vs 1, you have to judge the troll’s size level.
How do you deal with two of them? I’m not worried about how to run away? enough to have to worry about.
big!
Aaah!
But now, a player was dealing with two trolls at the same time.
Reckless no matter who sees it.
But none of those who saw the spectacle thought it was reckless.
That the player is Midas and no one else.
“Yeah, Lucky, you’re doing great! Hold on a little longer!”
The actual war situation itself did not show any signs that the player was at a disadvantage.
king!
A situation where Lucky is dealing with one troll and the other troll is colliding with a golem.
In a situation where aggro was perfectly managed, Midas, the key dealer, was perfectly positioned at a distance of 60 meters.
There seemed to be no problem unless a new variable appeared.
“master!”
Aaah!
Then Gold brought another troll from a corner of the forest.
It was a chilling moment down the spine from the point of view of the moment when three trolls suddenly became.
Just as one troll and two show completely different fighting abilities, two trolls and three trolls also have completely different fighting abilities.
The emergence of unexpected serious variables.
“I brought you!”
Gold, who worked in such a situation, shouted brightly at Midas as if to praise him.
“hey!”
Midas shouted at the gold.
“good job!”
Well done.
It is an unbelievable sight from the viewer’s point of view.
“Now then, let’s go to real dealings.”
But an even more absurd sight unfolded the moment Gold brought the troll.
right!
When the trolls reached three, Midas snapped his fingers as if waiting.
Then the ground shook from side to side.
And immediately, the ground, which shook from side to side, began to shake greatly up and down.
Kwalung!
A shock wave was activated, shaking the bodies of the three trolls who had gathered at once.
big!
big!
big!
Immediately, three screams erupted, and the bodies of the three trolls stiffened like statues.
The moment the shock wave’s status effect is activated.
“For the lord!”
At that moment, the gigantic gold rushed forward and slammed the troll with all its might.
Quaang!
The troll’s body, stiffened by the attack, collapsed like a domino.
bang!
And hit another colleague and fell together.
thud!
Just like that, the three trolls fell one after another like a domino.
In the meantime, Midas’ hand poured out magic without a break.
Dismissed!
Starting with Lightning Bolt, Midas, who spewed out 3 magic arrows at once, shouted for skill casting once again.
“Fireball and Iceball and Fire Spear!”
At that moment, the trolls who woke up from the electric shock began to rise from their seats one by one.
big!
big!
Big!
The three trolls stood up, once again unreservedly displaying their ferocious nature.
On the other hand, casting for Midas is still in progress.
But at that moment, Midas shouted at the fist-sized sphere of light next to him,
“Chain Lightning!”
Then, the familiar vomited a stream of lightning at the trolls who stood up in place of Midas.
Dismissed!
As soon as the thunderbolt that flew like that was pierced into the body of one troll, two streams of thunderbolt were emitted from the troll’s body and dug into the bodies of the two colleagues next to it.
[The trolls go into a state of electric shock.]
Once again the trolls hardened like statues.
“You guys!
Then, as Gold waited, he did another full blow to one of the trolls, and the trolls fell helplessly like dominoes once more.
[Casting is complete.]
And Midas heard a notification that the casting was finished.
when attacking.
Midas did not miss that moment.
‘Quickly and accurately.’
He threw the fireballs in his hand at the golden targets that glittered on the chests of the fallen trolls.
Perong!
The fireball thrown like that flew incomparably faster than usual and hit the golden target.
‘Guys with fastballs play baseball with this taste. Just throw it and it will stick!’
At that fact, Midas smiled in repentance.
[The troll was killed.]
In the midst of the attack, one troll died without even being able to attack.
K-King!
And right away, Lucky expressed his will to make a life-and-death decision toward a new target.
“Berserk!
Heeing!
At the same time, as if Midas had been waiting, he turned on the madness switch in Gold’s head.
Now, one-sided violence was carried out against the trolls, who were outnumbered 4 to 2.
[The troll was killed.]
In the end, one of them collapsed in the one-sided violence.
Now there is only one left.
big!
It was the moment when the sound the troll made seemed more pitiful than ferocious.
“It’s no joke.”
And desperate breathing came from the mouths of the players huddled together watching the scene from afar.
“Hunting three trolls at the same time.”
“That’s a solo kill too.”
“Solo kill? It’s a party of 4 with BJ Grand Mage, Lucky, Gold, and Golem?”
“It must be five people. If that’s the case, you’ll need to include your familiar.”
“Even if you do this and that, there is only one player, right?”
It was already proven in the Twin Head Troll Raid that BJ Grand Mage’s strength was outside the standard.
“I have never caught a boss monster, so I have no idea what kind of monster it is, but now I can feel it.”
However, there are not many players who have faced or plan to deal with boss monsters.
Because of that, it was not easy to feel how great it was in reality.
“Yes, it is a really great monster.”
It was for this reason that players felt more intense surprise and fear at the sight of BJ Grand Mage catching an ordinary troll.
It was around that time.
“There’s a rumor that they’re going to catch another twin-headed troll?”
“what?”
“This time, notice in advance.”
One person threw a word and some people reacted to that word.
“why?”
“I don’t know why, but there’s no reason not to. Because the ripple effect last time wasn’t a joke. If we do it one more time, the number of viewers will increase, right?”
“Ah, this is nonsense. Does it make sense to catch the same boss monster one more time?”
A story that would normally make you shake your head.
“Maybe because of the scenario. Catch the boss monster twice can there be a quest like that? Or maybe you were supposed to get an item from the boss monster but didn’t get it.”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m not sure, just a friend from the guild told me about it.”
“If it was the old guild….
However, the identity of the player who uttered the story gave the story credibility.
“Did that kind of story come out of the Explorers Guild?”
The player Chutan is talking about is that his former guild is the Explorers Guild.
Such Chutan continued the story.
“Exactly who is planning it?”
“plan?”
“If BJ Grand Mage gives advance notice once again and attempts a twin head troll raid, let’s interrupt him.
At the words that followed, the left turned their heads and looked at the BJ great mage.
BJ Grand Mage, who saw it like that, had already finished hunting.
The moment when a normal party can hunt three trolls faster than they can catch one.
The players who confirmed the far-off combat power turned their heads and looked at Chutan and said.
“Are you saying you’re going to do something crazy even after it’s broken like that?”
“Hey, that’s suicidal.”
“If you attack BJ Grand Mage, your personal information will be stolen!”
Chutan said in such a reaction.
There is no reason to attack BJ Grand Mage. In the first place, the boss monster didn’t belong to anyone. Whoever attacks first gets it.
“what?”
“If BJ Grand Mage makes a prior notice, he will definitely be looking for the boss monster on that day. What if someone hits that boss monster first? Is there anything you can’t do if you make up your mind?”
“Yeah….
“Above all, if you fail, you have nothing to lose. If you hit it first, you can catch it, otherwise you can shake your hands and leave. right? This is not an ill-mannered act, it is a normal boss monster fight.”
In front of those words, the players’ expressions changed.
Chutan delivered a decisive blow to them.
“If you really give advance notice, this time there will be at least 1 million viewers. More than that would be of interest. What would happen if you intercepted it there first? Who is he? there will be a sound And anyway, it’s a blow to the BJ Archmage. If you’re going to catch the two-headed troll anyway, it’s better to catch it when the merit is better, right?”
Low risk high return.
In response to that fact, one of the players said with a determined expression.
“So how many people gathered?”
