BJ Archmage - Chapter 146

Chapter 146. < Episode 46. Upgrade (2). >

4.

BJ Grand Mage’s Fire Snake Raid Live.

The aftermath of the live broadcast, which was unexpected in many ways, was also more than people expected.

– Did you see BJ Grand Mage live this time?

B Awesome!

It seems that one of the best ever came out!

It was bigger than expected.

– It’s a live broadcast, but I heard that it ended with only highlights?

ㄴ I honestly thought I was going to do a live performance for over an hour, but it just ended.

First of all, the broadcasting time itself was short.

– Grab the fire snake, show the Add One skill, and show the jackpot.

ㄴ It’s that short, but it’s hard to see a satisfactory live.

Even so, the content was richer than any star player’s live broadcast.

Viewers feel like they got their time for free.

– More jackpot than that. Don’t you think it’s a lot stronger than you thought?

ㄴ The combination with Lucky was awesome.

ㄴThat’s right, it was no joke that Lucky flew and moved the moment he leaped.

ㄴ The trend is Lucky & Jackpot!

On the one hand, because the live broadcast was short, viewers could not talk much during the broadcast.

As such, viewers came to talk about it in the community.

Naturally, the mentions became frequent.

– More than that, it was a shock to fire 5 tridents.

– Basic 2 shots with item effect and 3 shots with Add-One skill. In the meantime, reset the skill trident with replay.

– The revolver was applied.

– The last was Thunderbolt.

– There’s also Inferno here, right?

– Even if you turn that combo, 20% of the boss monster’s blood will just blow away?

And there were enough stories to share in the game that unfolded like that.

– Rather than that, Azmo said he would give you a gift, but didn’t BJ Grand Mage ask for an elf’s robe?

– The actual scale is different.

No, not enough, to the point of overflowing.

For that reason, the story of BJ Grand Mage was being talked about even after a day.

“Hyung, didn’t you see BJ Grand Mage’s live yesterday? Ah, the live ended yesterday. Yesterday we talked about that for 3 hours! My brother should have seen it then! Ah, my brother is really unlucky.”

As soon as he went to work in the capsule room, Lee Hyuk-ju started talking about the live instead of saying hello.

At Lee Hyuk-joo’s words, Jeong Hyeon-woo frowned and waved his hand as if he was annoyed at talking any more.

Jung Hyeon-woo, who was passing by Lee Hyuk-ju, found something and spoke up.

“Is the Blue Bull drink full?”

“Maybe because of yesterday’s broadcast, everyone bought one. And the Blue Bull kids got it cheap with a discount.”

“okay?”

“And like you said, I think that effect is good.”

“As I said, cost-effectiveness is different from expensive ones like Gamma.”

In response, Jung Hyeon-woo smiled lightly inwardly.

‘Still, it doesn’t seem to have the effect I advertised.’

It may not be all thanks to BJ Grand Mage, but it will still feel good from the advertiser’s point of view.

It was also a good feeling from Jung Hyun-woo’s point of view.

‘Yeah, I’m going to spread it like this, but the partnership should last for a long time.’

Of course, I wasn’t drunk on that fact.

‘In order to do that, I have to raise the power eventually.’

Rather, Jung Hyeon-woo properly saw what he would face.

‘Because now, if we move on to the next stage, the difficulty level will increase.’

If you upgrade your weapon, you will now graduate from Wood Village and reach the next stage.

‘Because of the party play, there are now cases of forming a party of 30 people.’

The next stage to face like that was where the battle with a larger group of monsters took place.

Where more firepower than this is required, as well as tactics.

‘If I insist on playing solo even there, I have no choice but to go with the Azmo style.’

There was no time to relax.

‘The money saved is quite good. If necessary, invest boldly.’

There was no room to spare.

‘Because now I can draw as much as I invested.’

And there was no reason to save.

“Okay, I’m going in.”

“yes.

“Rather than that, the Blue Bull drink.”

“Ah, would you like one?”

“Oh, did you get anything for free as a promotion?”

“yes?”

“No, it’s fine without it. Do some setting.”

So Jung Hyeon-woo headed for the capsule.

5.

An unknown pub in Wood Village.

“oh!”

It was inside the tavern that Midas met the NPCs.

“It’s you!”

The NPC Zuga, who found Midas in the bar, showed a happy expression and asked a question.

“How the hell did you find me?”

Midas gave a short answer to that question.

“I heard that you are here.”

‘I came just because I could see it.’

Of course, there was no reason to run around to get information from Midas.

‘Coming to think of it, the other kids must be dying for this too.’

In other words, in the case of other players, it means that they have to find Zuga by repeatedly talking to NPCs.

Considering the size of Wood Village, it was a long way off.

‘very good. The game should be a bit more difficult. It’s okay.’

This is something that should be welcomed by Midas.

“So what?”

“Indeed, I discovered the power of a nameless god here. It was like the time on the Golden Plains. Someone borrowed the power of a nameless god to infect the underground maze of Wood Village with monsters.”

The brief explanation of the situation erased NPC Zuga’s laughter.

Then Midas brought out the fiery serpent’s crystal to him.

“I got this in the process.”

“This…. Is it the fiery serpent’s decision? Huh, if it was the fiery snake I know, there wouldn’t be such a decision, right?”

Soon, NPC Zuga thought of something and opened his mouth.

“Perhaps this is the power of the fiery serpent to overcome the power of the nameless god.”

“What does that mean?”

“The power of the nameless god is very powerful. heterogeneous at the same time. The moment those who worship the gods accept its power, its existence shakes.”

At that explanation, Midas nodded heavily, recalling the guardian Natarsa.

“If such power enters the body, dissonance is inevitable in some way. In order to overcome such dissonance, we have no choice but to gather strength. This decision is likely the result of that.”

While Midas nodded again at that explanation, NPC Zuga carefully observed the fiery snake’s decision and said,

You are lucky.”

yes?”

You are lucky. If even this had been melted by the power of a nameless god, nothing would have been obtained.”

Then NPC Zuga spoke.

Won’t you give me this decision?”

Midas didn’t worry about that question.

In the meantime, I have received quite a bit of grace from Zi Ga. If you want, I will give it to you.”

showed pure kindness.

Of course, the inside was different.

‘Yes, take it and make a good item.’

The NPC Zuga, who had no way of knowing Midas’ intentions, said with a smile.

“Thank you. It looks like you can use this to put special power into your weapon.”

“A special power?”

To that question, Midas pretended not to know and responded with a surprised expression.

“Yes, special powers.”

[The quest has been completed.]

[The level has risen.]

At that moment, a notification was heard.

“There are a few things I need before that. save it.”

[A new quest has been created in the main scenario quest list.]

Midas laughed at the notification and said.

“Yes, you can. So, what can I get you?”

“You will save…. .

6.

Forge located in Wood Village.

“Oh did you get it?”

There, Midas replied to the NPC Zuga who welcomed him again.

“Ah yes. I have saved you.”

Midas’ voice as he spoke was different from the last time.

had to be different.

Midas had to travel around Wood Village to proceed with the quest this time.

It wasn’t just a tour either.

[Upgrade]

– Quest level: Main scenario

– Quest content: Hunt 300 slimes, 200 trolls, and 100 werewolves and collect the crystals!

– Quest reward: Weapon enhancement.

!After completing the quest, you can proceed with the quest ‘Asara’s Secret Deal’

Hunt a total of 600 monsters and get a crystal!

‘Anyway, like a trash game, the difficulty of the quest is so damn right. Why are you making me do this kind of labor?’

Remembering the battle he had fought to complete that quest, Midas sighed briefly.

And then he made up his mind.

‘I upgraded, but it’s not a big deal, just try it. I go to the headquarters of Alpha Company and overturn the table.’

Of course, that wasn’t going to happen.

“I managed to get them all.”

The NPC Zuga, who had no way of knowing Midas’ intentions, received quest materials from Midas.

After that, in one place in the smithy, he started putting the things he received into the brazier that was already boiling.

Farr!

Then the color of the flames in the brazier changed to black.

“Give me your weapon!”

Seeing this, the NPC Zuga shouted, and Midas gave the weapon in his hand to that cry.

That was the moment.

In Midas’ mind, the games he had been playing so far came to mind.

‘Wait, isn’t this reinforced?’

And I also remembered what reinforcement means in that game.

‘Isn’t that failing?’

The moment he remembered that, Midas was startled and pulled back Tunga’s black staff, which he was about to hand to NPC Zuga.

“Oops!”

Because of that, NPC Zuga missed the staff Midas gave him and dropped it on the floor.

“My hand slipped.”

While Midas’s face turned white at the words that followed, NPC Zuga stood in front of the furnace holding the staff that had fallen to the floor.

Midas said to him.

“Is the weapon suddenly destroyed or something like that?”

To that question, NPC Zuga put the staff in his hand into the furnace and said.

“Don’t worry. The probability of that is not high.”

“Isn’t it high? So are you saying there is?”

“Nothing is perfect in this world.”

What the fuck are you talking about now!

Unknowingly, the moment Midas was about to spit out those words, Pew! A short but powerful roar erupted from within the furnace.

‘Did it explode? no way?’

At the ominous sound, Midas swallowed the words he was about to spit out and turned his head toward the brazier.

And Midas could see.

Whoa…….”

His own weapon, which had become something completely different.

7.

One of the values of a star player in Warstube was that it had a trickle-down effect.

Some of those who subscribed to the channel to watch star players naturally came to watch other players’ videos.

“The editing team contacted me saying that the rookie videos that were uploaded the other day will have to be edited again! Take down the video for a moment!”

“An hour before Alice’s live! Stand by!”

“for a moment! for a moment! Alice asked for some time?”

It was for that reason that the office of the Rising Star Channel was so busy.

However, in the midst of that busyness, Park Young-joon was calm.

Sitting in his seat, closing his eyes and thinking about something, he didn’t even breathe.

An atmosphere that is not easy to approach.

“Hey…

One of his subordinates plucked up courage and carefully asked him a question.

When should we send the elf’s robe to BJ Archmage?”

Park Young-joon did not answer that question.

I just tapped my head with my fingers as usual.

Seeing that, the subordinate swallowed the words and turned his back.

‘What are you thinking about… … .’

I knew that this is a peculiar habit of Park Young-joon when he was troubled.

However, he had never seen Park Young-joon worrying so seriously since his subordinates joined the company.

While the subordinate turned his back, Park Young-joon still tapped his head.

In line with that rhythm, the contents of the conversation just before appeared in Park Young-joon’s head.

‘Gamma Constraints.’

Exactly 30 minutes ago, Youngjun Park contacted Gamma Pharmaceuticals.

It wasn’t anything special.

The deal with Blue Bull is over and the advertising spot is vacant.

To put it more simply, it was an offer to contact me if you are interested because the billboard for BJ Grand Mage is empty.

Gamma Pharmaceuticals showed interest in such a proposal.

The problem is the content of the proposal.

‘If you accept their request, I’ll get you anything you want.’

You decide your reward!

Gamma Pharma They presented a blank check to BJ Grand Mage.

‘…. I have a plan.’

Of course, there was no possibility that it was a proposal out of pure intentions.

First of all, the first problem was that he did not say what the contents of the request were while making such a proposal.

‘If I take the bait, I’ll let you know then.’

Guess what the intention was.

Of course, Park Young-joon had this situation in mind.

‘It’s a win-win.’

That’s why I knew that this proposal was a winning move made by the person behind Gamma Constraints.

‘I didn’t expect to write the winning number so quickly… … .’

That was the reason for the concern.

‘It’s better to throw the odds while you can than to hold out until the stakes run out. It’s not normal either.’

As long as the opponent throws the number of wins, when Park Young-joon, who is facing it, must also prepare for the match.

‘The key is the difficulty of the quest to be presented from the other side.’

Among them, what Park Young-joon had to figure out was the difficulty of the condition set by the gamma constraint.

‘You have to keep in mind the number of cases. The number of all cases based on the power of the BJ archmage… … .’

Park Young-joon is worried about that.

“Here, boss.”

A subordinate came to Park Young-joon again, and Park Young-joon patted my head.

I’m thinking about it, tell me later.

“Hey boss, well…. .

However, instead of stepping back, the subordinate spoke again, and Park Young-joon stopped tapping his head at that fact.

Then he looked at his subordinates.

He made an expression that he would give me overtime if I said something like, “Give me a corporate card for dinner today.”

A subordinate said to Park Young-joon.

“An email came from BJ Grand Mage.”

“email?”

“They say there has been a change in power.”

In response, Park Yeongjun tilted his head and asked back.

“change?”

“Yes, it is called rapid change.”
