BJ Archmage - Chapter 226
Chapter 226. < Episode 73. Finding the hidden BJ Grand Mage (1) >
1.
Land of pioneers.
This stage, prepared for players who reached level 200, boasted the widest stage among all the hunting grounds players had ever encountered.
It took about a year just to move the map.
In addition, players here mainly hunted in instance fields that appeared for quests.
A structure that makes it difficult for players to meet and recognize each other in many ways.
“Oh, it’s really wide.”
“It’s wide, it’s wide, stop talking like that and look for the kids! It’s already past the appointment time!”
“No, why are you angry?”
“If you weren’t late for pooping, we would have moved together!”
“Did you want me to finish it?”
Because of this, it took a lot of effort and effort to meet each other when the group fell apart.
Of course, even on such a stage, no one could find Midas located in the most remote place, where only those who could receive special quests could reach it.
In such a place, Midas was doing his last check before the battle of solitude.
What Midas’ gaze reached was none other than gold.
“I just don’t know what to do with the master’s new grace.”
If you roughly crush it and throw it on the floor, you’d think it would be a rag, but Gold’s appearance in a grayish-brown poncho was the look of a wanderer that would come out of a Western.
Compared to the strong and cool appearance of the ice knight who used the ice knight’s body as a base and carried a black ice helmet set and a black claymore, it was not very cool.
Compared to before, it’s worse.
Of course, no one dared to say such a thing if they confirmed the identity of the item Gold was wearing.
[Wanderer’s Poncho]
– Grade: Legendary
– Wearable level: 198 or higher
– A poncho for those who freely wandered the land of pioneers. Allows the wearer freedom.
– Strength +355
– Stamina +339
– Intelligence +66
– Magic +109
– Increases movement speed by 33% when equipped
– Increases physical attack power by the same amount as movement speed increase
Wanderer’s Poncho.
If the wearer of this item attacks while moving, physical attack power increases by the amount of movement speed increase.
The amount of increase also included the amount of increase through other items.
Even if you wear elven boots or receive haste magic, your attack power increases.
Of course, there was a condition that the attack power increased when moving.
It was a pretty difficult condition.
‘If I can use it properly, there is no more terrifying option than this.’
However, if the conditions are satisfied, the power is enormous.
‘Rocketman wore this and set a new record in the land of pioneers.’
The Abyss Guild’s melee dealer, Rocketman, showed its power in the Land of Pioneers.
‘4 minutes and 35 seconds to catch a bunch.’
300 maned hyenas encountered in the pioneer land and 1 white maned hyena leading the hyenas.
A total of 301 hyenas were killed in 4 minutes and 35 seconds.
‘Still a record that no one has broken.’
Of course, among the record breakers were Merlin and the best members of the Abyss Guild, but his performance was so overwhelming that everyone who watched the record-breaking video chose Rocket Man as the MVP.
In other words, it means that even Merlin is so enormous that it makes his presence pale.
“I’ll show you a look that suits the grace you’ve inherited!”
At that time, Silver, who was standing next to Gold, spat out words in response to Gold’s words, and Midas raised his head to confirm Silver’s words.
Such silver was originally wearing a set of items that gold had worn.
A swordsman set that is of a lower rank than the Rocketman set worn by Gold, but is a dream set for players.
‘I never thought I’d put a Guardian wearing a Swordsman’s set and a Rocketman’s set next to me.’
It was a spectacle to see the dream sets of melee dealers gathered like that.
Perhaps even the Swordsman himself or Rocket Man himself could not have imagined it.
Nevertheless, Midas’ expression was not good as he looked at the wasteland ahead of him on a full-scale hunt.
‘It’s not easy though.’
It was obviously a great power, but the group of maned hyenas they faced were also not normal.
First of all, the group number was three hundred.
Moreover, maned hyenas, unlike ringed monkeys, had excellent mobility.
It means that he has the ability to properly utilize the vast stage of the land of pioneers.
‘If you don’t deal with the boss, the hunting difficulty will increase dramatically.’
Here, while the white maned hyena, the leader, was alive, the maned hyenas showed very colorful tactical and strategic patterns as well as increased stats.
In a way, the group suddenly split into groups of 10 and attacked, or the scattered group gathered in one place in perfect order.
The problem was that the white-maned hyena itself was also very strong.
‘It’s not easy to catch the boss.’
And it was very fast.
After receiving buffs and maximizing movement speed, even melee dealers who used skills had a hard time catching up.
The most troubling thing was that I had to do all of these things not just well, but better than everyone else.
‘Fortunately, it’s not a competition.’
That was the only comfort Midas could have in the face of all the difficulties he was facing.
If I had to compete with normal players, trial and error would have become a dark history.
‘It must have just been bitten and chewed while the bubbles came out.’
The hyenas wandering around the world would have clung to it and chewed up the existence of BJ Grand Mage without leaving even a bone.
“good.”
At that point, Midas had no further thoughts or worries.
Instead, he slapped me on the cheek and said after making up his mind.
“Come on guys!”
With those words, Midas stepped in.
Then a notification sounded.
[You have entered the no-pioneering area.]
Midas A notice announcing that he had entered a stage that no one in the world could come to and know.
2.
The maned hyena boasts a body size that is twice as large as that of ordinary hyenas in real life.
Krrr!
Cuckoo!
About 100 of those maned hyenas were breathing hard and baring their teeth at the enemy.
On the other hand, the number of those facing such a group was only 20 at most.
The situation is so tense that you forget to even make a face full of tension and fear.
However, there was no tension to be seen on the faces of the 20 players.
“It’s not long now.”
“I think the master casting is coming to an end, but it will be finished.”
There is only one free space.
“How many did you catch?”
Even the players facing the herd of maned hyenas at the forefront among them, those who had the urgent task of cutting off the heads of the maned hyenas with their shields and slashing them with knives, were talking with their backs facing each other.
“Twenty-seven. you?”
“thirty. After all, I am faster.”
“Yeah, I hope it’s fast. I sincerely pray that you get a game over sooner than me.”
“Hey, until a week ago, we were fighting each other on the kill and buy broadcast, but now we’re on the same team.”
“Twenty eight twenty nine.”
“uh? Did you mean it on purpose?”
While expressing overflowing composure with their whole bodies, their fighting ability did not shake in the slightest.
Proof that they are not mediocre players by any means.
It was then.
Whiy!
A shadow began to fall over their heads with the sound of the cold wind.
Players on the battlefield who saw it stopped talking.
On the contrary, with a more nervous expression than ever before, he only pays attention to the feelings around him.
Cuckoo!
And at some point, they hit the attacking hyena with a sword in their hand and began to fall back.
“Fall!”
Holding the shield like an umbrella and blocking it over the head.
At the same time, the dark clouds that rose above their heads vomited out what they were holding.
Blocks of ice the size of a child’s body.
Whoo!
That alone was already terrifying, but even more terrifying, the front of those ice blocks was extremely sharp.
Of course, the physical destructive power it creates right before it hits the ground is indescribable.
Fu-wook!
The tough maned hyena’s skin that touched the ice was mercilessly crushed like downy hair.
Even if he avoided it, it wasn’t the end.
Whoa!
The chunks of ice that fell to the ground shattered at that moment, and the resulting fragments flew in all directions.
like a grenade.
wake up!
More than 100 hyenas, who were fierce and pierced the sky, turned into pitiful dogs at once.
“It is great power. It seems to be twice as strong as the wizards who applied for the guild I was in before?”
“Because of course, I raised my stats tenaciously while hunting for titles through the Explorers Guild.”
“It’s like post-Azmo.”
Those who watched the scene clicked their tongues and turned their eyes to the person who made the scene.
A sharp-eyed woman with long, blue hair radiating a blue aura all over her body, escorted by three people from afar.
Example of a character name.
He was the guild master of the Jungwon Guild and was evaluated as Post Azmo.
“I never thought being on our side would be so reassuring.”
Everyone was tongue-tied at the sight of her creating a scene worthy of that nickname.
It was then.
[The white mane hyena has been killed.]
While the maned hyenas were being slaughtered by Yehwa’s blizzard, everyone heard a notification that the leader had been captured.
“already?”
“how?”
Everyone was surprised by that fact.
Shortly thereafter, the three players crossed the clearing battlefield and headed to Yehwa.
Soon after arriving near Yehwa, one of them looked around and said,
“As expected, it’s destructive power worthy of the former Small Park Ranking No. 1.”
“It’s nothing great. I wasn’t the only one who took first place in the small park rankings, right? Killer Dog, you are amazing.”
The character name of the person talking to Yehwa is Ayeon.
Of course, rather than his name, he was a more famous player with the nickname Killer Dog, which means that he bites and hangs on a target until it dies.
In addition, he was also a talented person who had achieved the 1st place in the prospect ranking of the Changseong Guild and the 1st place in the small park ranking.
Of course, that was in the past.
“It’s worthwhile to pay a large sum of money to the Changsung Guild.”
Because the Jungwon Guild paid a large transfer fee to the Changsung Guild and recruited him.
It wasn’t just them.
“Of course, others do too. I can definitely feel the reward I paid for it now.”
Each and every one of the members who are now here were talented people who were at the top of the small park rankings until a month or two ago.
Those who were already receiving the best treatment in their own guild.
Those who could receive the best treatment no matter which guild they went to.
Some of them have already gathered enough fans and supporters to get enough treatment on their own without the help of the guild.
Yehwa gathered them.
“At this point, I don’t think catching the BJ Archmage would be a chore.”
The reason is none other than to catch BJ Grand Mage.
“Well, considering the money I’ve spent so far, it might be an overpay.”
Of course, looking at the current power, it was too much to catch BJ Grand Mage.
Of course, Yehwa’s paintings were bigger.
Considering capturing BJ Archmage and recruiting him to our side, this is worth paying.”
What she wanted was to catch and tame, not kill.
And that was the reason they came together.
‘If it goes as planned.’
If Yehwa’s plan is to capture BJ Grand Mage and tame him to become a team, then the midfield guild will no longer be a guild with a lot of money.
It was not a vague plan.
While recruiting those gathered here, Yehwa explained her plan to recruit BJ Grand Mage.
Once you’ve swung the whip, you’ll present a carrot, and what kind of carrot you’ll be presenting.
‘If we can become a team that loves BJ Daemado… … .’
Those who heard the plan had no choice but to think that the midfield guild had no choice but to recruit a BJ master mage.
Naturally, those present here imagined what would happen after that.
‘I can also aim for a spot in the 10th guild.’
The appearance of the midfield guild that goes beyond the 1st tier and competes with the 10th guild.
It was a merit that was not lacking to be willing to abandon the stable path and bet.
Everyone was so sincere.
Whatever the case may be, through this work, they have given up a stable path and a guaranteed profit.
“So who is the BJ Grand Mage now?”
Everyone was keenly aware of BJ’s every move.
“As far as I currently understand, it doesn’t seem like you’ve received the Pioneer Quest.”
“It remains in the stage tree forest?”
“I guess so. There is no way to come to the Land of the Pioneers without taking the Pioneer Quest. And there is no way to secretly receive and proceed with the Pioneer Quest.”
And in order to figure it out, Yehwa spent a lot of money and placed observers everywhere.
“It looks like he’s trying to level up as much as possible in the stage tree.”
“It looks like you read our trends.”
“I guess so. The moment you come over here, you will have no choice but to fight us.”
Yehwa, who was talking, raised her staff and said.
“Moreover, I put Ara’s staff, which has never been revealed to the world, as a bounty, so there’s no way I can avoid a fight. I wonder if BJ the great mage becomes a dog with a tail down.”
At that, everyone nodded.
Then he smiled.
‘This is for sure.’
‘I can catch it.’
A smile at the fact that this hunt could not fail.
Yehwa also smiled and said.
“How much did our record come before that?”
One person answered that question.
“Four minutes…. Oh, there is one left.”
Immediately upon that answer, the players turned their heads toward the battlefield, and as soon as they checked one survivor, an archer in the distance drew the bowstring.
ke row!
[The group of maned hyenas have been killed.]
It was only after seeing that the last one was killed that the record came out.
“Four minutes and thirty seconds.”
The moment a new record is achieved.
But no one was happy about that fact.
“Could it be reduced further?”
“Maybe we can reduce it to 3 squads.”
Because everyone gathered here had the confidence that they could produce more than this result.
In front of that fact, Yehwa threw a word.
“I wonder what kind of preparation BJ Grand Mage will prepare.”
3.
[The Black Hyena has been killed.]
Upon hearing that, Midas turned his head to check the battlefield.
thud!
The first thing that caught Midas’ eyes was the presence of three blaze golems.
As always, beings that boast an overwhelming presence.
K-King!
The next thing that caught my eye was, of course, the gigantic Lucky and the same gigantic shadow clone.
It was impressive to see him overwhelm the black hyenas rather than being intimidated.
“For the Master!”
For the Master!”
And, as if not to lose to Lucky and his alter ego, Gold and Silver, who were in a miniaturized state, were defeating the black hyenas with the advantages of different items at the forefront.
In that situation, it was the familiars who were positioned on both sides of Midas that revealed their presence anew.
[The Familiar uses Fire Arrow.]
[The Familiar uses Ice Arrow.]
Unlike usual, the Familiars were now using Midas’ magical arrow type magic and attacking the black hyenas around Midas.
Fire!
And between the rolling flames, the spirit warriors were doing their part.
So everyone was performing 100 percent of their respective roles.
It was great.
But Midas couldn’t be more pleased with the sight.
‘It’s over 10 minutes.’
That the battle had already started for over 10 minutes.
‘Even with the best performance.’
Moreover, the fact that everyone was 100 percent active made Midas’ expression even harder.
In other words, 100 percent performance means that more than this is impossible.
Of course, the ones he was dealing with were not the maned hyenas, but the stronger black hyenas, but honestly, it didn’t matter.
‘It took too long for Lucky and Gold to catch the black hyena leader.’
It also didn’t matter that it took a lot of time to catch the black hyena boss.
The important thing is that Midas confirmed his limits.
[Magic power has decreased to 30% or less.]
Above all, it was a problem that he had already used more than half of his magical power in this single battle.
[You have defeated the group of black hyenas.]
[Your level has risen.]
[You have completed the quest conditions.]
Therefore, the moment the battle ended, Midas’ expression showed signs of worry rather than joy.
‘It must be more difficult than I thought.’
A situation that faced more challenges than expected.
However, the game God Wars did not give Midas a chance to rest.
king!
“Master, someone is approaching! It doesn’t seem like an enemy, but it’s dangerous, so hide behind me.”
As soon as the battle ended, Lucky and Gold announced the appearance of a new being.
Of course, Midas knew.
‘It must be a survivor.’
The next quest title is Survivor Of course, that Survivor will come.
It was as expected.
Midas turned his head and saw a man.
And the information above the man’s head was also visible.
!Ara’s disciple
Midas who saw this let out a long sigh.
‘It’s a difficult road ahead.’
