BJ Archmage - Chapter 390
Chapter 390. < Episode 122. Bounty Race (3). >
9.
Anyone can come up with a plausible plan.
And anyone can prepare a plan B in case that plausible plan fails.
However, there were not many people who could use the Plan B properly.
It was because most people did not accept failure easily.
In terms of stocks, even if the price falls below the standard you set, you cannot sell with the expectation that it will rebound someday.
In other words, more important than making a plan was to make a cool judgment.
Azmo was like that.
He was convinced when he confirmed that there was no full-scale war in the White Desert even after the breaking news that regen would not happen, and when he figured out why.
‘BJ Grand Mage’s intention failed.’
At least in this edition, BJ Grand Mage failed to achieve what he wanted and was defeated.
‘It’s just waste of money.’
The $7.77 million he gave became pocket money to fill the stomachs of others.
‘What money is, no matter what.’
Of course, $7.77 million was not that significant to Azmo.
Compared to the money I’ve spent on the God Wars game so far and the money I’ll spend in the future, I just spent a little more on drinks at my birthday party.
What was important was what happened next.
‘BJ Grand Mage will fail, and the Abyss Guild won’t just watch this failure while drinking wine.’
The story won’t end with one failure today.
Surely the Abyss Guild would drive this momentum and catch BJ Archmage’s ankle again and again.
‘It was almost caught at the last minute.’
I don’t know where the finish line of God Wars is, but it was a very bad timing for BJ Archmage, who is about to climb the level 400 hunting ground, which is the stage of superstars sooner or later.
‘Every time a monster reappears in the White Desert, it will prevent BJ Archmage from getting the number he wants.’
As long as the difficulty of the game is the same as the level of the players here, it was no different than falling into the abyss if you got caught once.
‘Shall we make a deal?’
So, Azmo remembered Plan B prepared for a day like this.
‘In the current situation, if I pull out that card, I can ask for more than 10% of the Rising Star channel.’
A very powerful card.
The time has finally come for Azmo, who was watching the live broadcast with a plan B prepared early on.
– It’s just… … was a player. player.
Azmo smiled bitterly at the comment that came with BJ Grand Mage’s crying expression.
Azmo didn’t think that expression was acting.
‘He seems to be genuinely angry.’
A person with a really strong sense of self-respect would get angry and despair more than anyone else in the face of real defeat.
It was then.
– Don’t be too discouraged. Good days will come.
When Merlin’s comment came out, Azmo’s bitter smile grew thicker while watching the broadcast.
It’s like hanging a crying child by the leg and knocking it over, then doing an armbar.
The crying stopped and the evil sound came out.
‘Because of BJ’s personality, he’ll explode.’
And if it was BJ Grand Mage, he might have properly declared war on Merlin here.
‘It would be better for me to declare war instead.’
In addition, Azmo was ready to gladly accept the declaration of war.
waited for it
‘The moment we declare war, we make a deal with the Rising Star Channel.’
May the gunshots that announce the start of the war sound.
And soon gunshots rang out.
– That’s right, like Merlin-sama said, there must be a good day. Well, now that I’ve completed the quest, I’ll move on to the next one. I’ll show you in good shape in the next quest.
huh?
Merlin’s gunshot went right through his heart.
10.
Now that I’ve completed the quest, I’ll move on to the next quest. I will show you a good figure in the next quest.”
When that comment came out, the world instantly fell into chaos.
– The quest is over now?
Does that mean that my life is over?
I don’t think it’s because of the tone.
A situation where the quest is certain to fail no matter who sees it, but the quest is finished? Shall we move on to the next quest?
Confusion is as shocking as being hit on the head three or four times in a row with a blunt weapon.
However, Midas, who uttered that comment, was different.
‘Ehh.’
He couldn’t really grasp the destructive power of his remarks.
No, apart from grasping, the thought itself of him was not in my head.
‘In the end, only the potion price was blown into the air.’
Of course, Midas had never once said the conditions for completing the quest with his own mouth.
From his point of view, completing the quest was just a matter of course.
Also, this live broadcast was not a quest, but a bounty race.
So originally, I didn’t even want to comment on the completion of the quest.
‘Still, I’m glad Merlin-nim supported me at the end.’
I just said that I wanted to show my sincerity to the eldest grandson who gave me a lot of money and supported me.
‘Okay, now I have to focus on the quest.’
“Then, today’s live will end here.”
Because of this, Midas shouted the curtain call of today’s live broadcast without hesitation and without much hesitation.
“Then, before you go, Luck…. uh?”
[The live broadcast has ended.]
Then, the live broadcast ended as if cutting it off with a single knife, without even having time to finish the additional comments.
‘Did you finish right away?’
Unlike usual, I had about 10 seconds to spare for the reaction of the viewers or the closing production.
‘Well, I failed in the bounty race today, so there’s nothing good about broadcasting more.’
Of course, from Midas’ point of view, it wasn’t a big question.
Write.
‘My money.’
And there was no room for questioning.
‘Oh my money!’
Considering the amount of money he spent to get a bounty this time, it wasn’t just that he was sick to the stomach, it was rotten.
There is only one thing that can soothe the inside in this state.
Tsk.
‘Because I broke the quest though.’
The only reward for this quest.
[The Dragon Slayer Sword will talk to you.]
Just in time, a notification was heard, and Midas opened the inventory window and took out the Dragon Slayer Sword.
– I saw everything. That’s great!
The sword that appeared immediately praised Midas.
– I thought you were a crazy idiot, but your skills are great.
With the four feet attached that there is nothing to attach.
Of course, Midas didn’t care.
“thank you. So, can you teach me now?”
‘If you give me dragon skin and Barman’s legacy, I’ll be treated like a nerd.’
The important thing now is to soothe the bitter stomach.
– good night. Even if you are lucky enough to pass the exam, passing is passing. From now on, I will bestow upon you the teachings of the Dragon Slayer.
At the words that followed, Midas had a slight doubt.
“Hey, by the way, what are Barman-nim’s teachings in detail?”
What is the teaching of the dragon slayer?
‘Couldn’t it be something like mental training? A state of mind or a state of mind. That’s what I mean when I am.’
Of course, it didn’t look like anything good would come of it.
– What lessons can a dragon slayer give you?
“What is it?”
– Just catch the dragon.
“yes?”
Midas tilted his head at the sword’s answer.
“No, did you catch that dragon?”
– As I said, the dragon you caught is just a mutant crocus with dragon blood. Did that dragon look like a monster that could eat even the gods?
Midas closed his mouth at the sword’s question that followed.
It was because he had nothing to question, but it was because he was cowardly.
‘Doesn’t just teach me that, in other words, I have to catch such a ridiculous dragon?’
I have nothing to do with dragons, but I will never teach you how to hunt dragons.
In addition, it was clear that the dragon mentioned here was a boss monster on a different level from the double-headed dragon that Midas had caught earlier.
‘The game is so dirty.’
A story that is never pleasant.
– Seeing that he kept his mouth shut, he seemed to understand.
“yes. Got it. So what should I do?”
– For now, follow my words and move. I have a place to go.
At the words of the sword, Midas raised his head.
Then, a pillar of red light, which had never been seen before, intensely caught Midas’ eyes.
‘It looks like he’s trying to guide me there.’
Midas, who confirmed that, moved right away.
“Guys, let’s go back now!”
king!
“Yes Master!”
Then, as if they had waited, Lucky and Gold Silver responded to Midas’ words.
couw!
And the jackpot, as always, rode on Midas’ head.
couw!
– Nice bird.
The sword reacted lightly to the appearance of Jackpot.
“is it so?”
– A wonderful bird that can urge and scold its stupid and slow owner.
“yes? I beg your pardon?”
– Literally. said the bird. Don’t play the master and do it properly.
couw!
– Well, that’s kind of hard to tell.
Midas made a puzzled expression at the translation of the sword that followed.
[A dragon only for war gives you a new chance.]
[Would you like to use the opportunity?]
Midas with that sullen expression heard a notification prompting him to receive a reward for reaching level 330, and Midas turned his attention to the notification.
‘Let’s get a reward on the way.’
It seems like we have to walk quite a bit anyway, but it would be better to collect rewards and organize stats along the way.
yes.
A hundred cards appeared right in front of Midas’ eyes as he answered right away.
While each one emits a brilliant light.
‘and!’
Midas vomited admiration at that fact.
‘It’s been a while since the light went out?’
The number of red card unique grade cards that caught my eye right away was well over ten.
‘if? there is!’
Of course, it would be disappointing if the golden light that decorates such a bright flower garden is missing.
‘Great!’
Midas, who finally found the golden card, smiled more happily than ever.
‘Yes, I spent a lot of money, but thanks to that, I leveled up quickly and received this reward, right? investment is investment. I never threw money in the trash.’
The feeling of being properly healed.
However, Midas’ pleasant smile did not last long.
‘Now then, what came out of Legendary… … .’
Soon, Midas, who checked the skill card that emitted golden light, lost his smile and opened his eyes wide instead.
[Dragon’s Eyes]
– Skill Grade: Legendary
– Skill Effect: Able to identify two fatal weaknesses of the target.
– Acquisition conditions: Achieve Dragon’s Eye B rank titles ‘Shooter’ and ‘Veteran Shooter’.
Dragon’s Eyes.
A skill that makes two targets visible with the Dragon’s Eye skill!
‘It’s a new skill!’
Like the fairway, it was a skill that had never appeared in the world before.
‘Wait, two targets appear?’
And, like the fairway, it was a very strategically valuable skill.
Until now, you only had to aim for one spot, but now you can aim for two.
It meant that Midas’ attack patterns would diversify.
Moreover, Midas still remained.
‘Then if you upgrade to Legendary Epic… … .’
Not one Legendary Epic Skill Cardbook, but two.
Of course, there was no hesitation.
[The Dragon’s Eyes skill has been acquired.]
After securing the skill, Midas immediately opened the Legendary Epic skill card book in the inventory.
Then, through the floating emerald light, he looked for the Dragon’s Eyes skill and checked it.
[Dragon’s Eyes]
– Skill Rating: Legendary Epic
– Skill Effect: Can identify three critical weaknesses of the target.
three places!
“wow! Wow!”
The moment he saw it, Midas vomited exclamation without realizing it.
couw!
The jackpot sitting on top of Midas’s head flapped his wings and cried out to keep from falling.
Wow!
– Yes, as you said.
And the sword that heard the words of the jackpot clicked his tongue and said.
– Your master is Mi… …
11.
“Crazy baby.”
Took!
Merlin, who emptied the wine in one go with the horse, roughly set the wine glass down on the table.
“The next quest? Are you saying all of this is a drawing he drew?”
After that, Merlin, who had been violently venting his anger, showed a genuine expression on the contrary.
“No, it can’t be. obviously a bluff yes bluff Act like the quest is over and wait for people to turn off their attention. That’s how I’m going to do the quest quietly next time.”
Then, as if satisfied with the explanation that came out, Merlin now put on a relaxed expression.
He looked at Emma with that expression and said.
“is not it?”
I ask you to agree with my words.
But Emma said Merlin’s words with a colder expression than ever before.
“BJ Grand Mage is not someone who is bluffing enough to be caught right away. Of course, you have to be prepared for such cases, but it is highly likely that the quest has been completed, as BJ Grand Mage said.”
Unfortunately, I cannot agree with you.
“Oh so I just dumped the money in the gutter?”
The money you sent and the wine you opened today are trash.
“What a wonderful thing.”
By the time Merlin is angered by that answer again.
I’m not kidding, I mean it from the bottom of my heart, but you did a good job.”
“what?”
Then Emma praised Merlin.
“You did well.”
“Did I just throw my money in the gutter?”
“Thanks to you, you found out that BJ Grand Mage completed the quest, didn’t you?”
At that, Merlin looked at Emma gently, and in front of that gaze, Emma raised her wine glass and said,
“And that everyone was fooled by his tricks. Honestly, it’s Gord who’s going to be the most angry right now, not us. From his point of view, it was like playing a clown. Clown play with no bounty or trophies.”
“I don’t think there’s a way to feel good about Gord’s personality.”
“God didn’t get there because he was good at the game, he got there through his skill. But BJ Grand Mage turned God’s skills into a clown game that didn’t earn a single penny. Moreover, God is now leading an all-star team, not a big family guild.”
“Is the seat dangerous?”
“At least it won’t be safer than yesterday.”
“Then I will move to avoid danger. Even if we don’t do anything.”
At Merlin’s words, Emma looked at the wine in her wine glass.
“A wine price of 10,000 dollars was cheap. Considering the cost of the bounty that forces a human named God, who will lead the All-Star team, to somehow kill the BJ archmage.”
After that, Emma drank wine.
Afterwards, Emma, who lightly rolled the wine in her mouth, swallowed it and continued talking.
“Deterministically, the results came from this race. Now BJ Grand Mage can’t do it alone. It’s like the real bounty race has begun.”
