I Regressed But The World DidnT Fall Apart - Chapter 27
I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 27
Transcendent Hunter’s Streaming -27-
027.
“Oh? Black Oak-nim, what’s this?”
“A raid? Nothing special. Just a place we’ve set up for our viewers to watch comfortably.”
Black Oak’s explanation that it was nothing special for the viewers’ convenience.
However, with 2,400 viewers, it was hard to believe it was nothing special.
“This wasn’t even part of the original plan.”
Moreover, the raid was not something discussed in advance when talking about the collaboration today.
The raid involved moving viewers directly from Channel A to Channel B.
Unlike the hosting method where only the broadcast screen is displayed, this method allowed for chatting and donations, moving viewers entirely to the new channel.
Yet, it was not something the streamer could force; viewers had to agree to the raid and press the join button to be moved.
However, in Black Oak’s case, most of the viewers watching his stream agreed to be raided.
It was more like they had no choice.
-What the heck, LOL
-What will happen if I turn off the broadcast?
-LOL, Doraetman (T/N: Internet slang)
Since Black Oak even turned off his broadcast, directing viewers to Lee Dohyuk.
“Well… If you’re offering, I’ll graciously accept.”
Understanding the situation, Lee Dohyuk expressed his gratitude to Black Oak.
Black Oak was largely responsible for promoting the collaboration and even directing viewers like this.
In many ways, he was a grateful person.
“hehehe. Don’t be overly grateful. I’m also taking care of my YouTube channel sweetly in return.”
Of course, Black Oak wasn’t just being taken advantage of.
Lee Dohyuk and Jianne’s [It Kills Two] play was only uploaded to his YouTube channel since neither of them had one, bringing in considerable revenue.
-Nice
-The views are picking up after a long time
– It seems like he’s been bitten by the King Algorithm.
– If it’s just that much with a relay mosquito, it’s impressive.
– He really poured it on, lol.
Listening to the sound of MangTube, Black Oak’s YouTube channel had a surprisingly high number of views.
The most recent video had already reached 170,000 views.
Black Oak, who planned to split two days of gameplay into four videos, was determined.
“Well, today’s content should obviously go up on Do-hyuk’s YouTube channel.”
Although it was a joint broadcast, the core of this content ultimately revolved around Do-hyuk’s Valhalla play.
Black Oak was merely there to sprinkle some seasoning on the side.
Therefore, uploading today’s video on his own YouTube channel would be against the norms.
In other words, today’s joint broadcast was something Black Oak couldn’t do as a live streamer or for his YouTube channel.
However, despite the circumstances, there was a reason why he pushed Do-hyuk to the forefront in today’s joint broadcast.
“Hmm. You have to show your best when you can.”
At first, that wasn’t his intention.
Back then, Do-hyuk was just an ordinary guest who attracted attention with his physical appearance on the first day.
He planned to utilize that for his broadcast content, aiming for a win-win situation where he could gain recognition through Do-hyuk’s channel.
But the next day, after watching the boss battle in “It Kills Two,” Black Oak felt something.
“Oh, this guy. He definitely stands out. And in a big way.”
Recalling that moment, the excitement he felt back then still sent shivers down his spine.
It was more than just a thrill; it was a chilling feeling.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but think.
If Do-hyuk hadn’t been playing “It Kills Two,” but a massive online game like Legend League or Bastion Knight, or even something like Soul Like or Stylish Action game…
How many viewers would he have had?
Moreover, Do-hyuk wasn’t just good at realistic modes like “It Kills Two.”
Didn’t he experience firsthand in Ultimate Fighter 1:1?
“Winning the lottery for sure, but…”
What he thought was K-Lotto turned out to be a feeling of winning the Powerball jackpot upon closer inspection.
Just like how bees can’t fly if they take in too much honey, the ecosystem of streamers is similar.
If he tried to hog Do-hyuk’s first-broadcast aggro, who had a high chance of becoming a top-tier company in the future, he might end up with a bitter image of being greedy rather than sharing.
In that case, it was better to openly support him, leaving a friendly streamer colleague position for himself.
[“Do-hyuk’s” broadcast has been selected as a trending broadcast with a sudden increase in viewers!]
– Wow.
– Viewers are steadily increasing.
– Sss.
[Current viewers: 5,617]
– Hey, isn’t this guy the Axe Murderer?
– What’s this? A viewer bot?
– Nope, Black Oak shot it.
– Oh, saw it on Aitube.
– Hi.
– Do-ha~
– What kind of broadcast is this?
With the choice of Black Oak, Lee Dohyuk has been breaking viewer records from the very first episode.
He was even selected for the rising viewer category, steadily gaining more viewers.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Lee Dohyuk, starting today’s broadcast. So, what kind of show is this…”
– It’s a show with people.
– So far, we’ve talked about zombies lol
– From now on, we’ll talk about the guys from Hongcha-guk and Vikings, yup.
“If you watch, you’ll understand.”
With those words, Lee Dohyuk pressed the start button for the game.
**
Bang!
He closed his eyes, then opened them again after a few seconds.
The scenery had changed.
Though his body didn’t move, Lee Dohyuk wasn’t surprised.
A situation he had experienced several times in It Kills Two.
From Noble mtl dot com
In front of him, the story of Rise of Valhalla unfolded.
“In the year 793, a terrible calamity struck the sacred land of Northumbria. The cursed name, Vikings. Led by the slaughterer Ragnar, these foreigners invaded the church, defiling it with rape and massacre, covering Northumbria in pillage, arson, and murder…”
Ragnar Lodbrok.
In the past, a legendary Viking ruler who was said to have ruled over Sweden and Denmark.
Lee Dohyuk was quite familiar with this Viking Ragnar.
A former comrade with a barbarian concept who taught him axe skills (or rather, Lee Dohyuk watched and learned) and hailed from Iceland, known for being the homeland of direct descendants of Vikings, claimed to be the reincarnation of Ragnar.
“…But the nightmare that started in Northumbria eventually met its end there. Ragnar, leading the Vikings who avoided the storm tearing through the air, arrived at the coast of Northumbria. Here, Ragnar faced the final battle of his life against the king of Northumbria, Ælla II…”
“…Finally, his giant spear was shattered, and his impenetrable armor was stripped off. Snakes rushed at Ragnar, coiling around his neck and squeezing. The legendary Viking who had claimed countless lives finally sensed death and left a warning. ‘If the young boars understand the old father’s death, how will they squeal?’ It was a dreadful prophecy…”
Rise of Valhalla
– Kya
– Pff pff
– K
– Watching this, Vikings are seriously badass.
– That’s true.
– Is that ethical? Moral? Who knows
– Ah lol If we go to Valhalla, is that heaven? What’s that about?
– Lol
As the story ended, his vision darkened once more.
Lee Dohyuk felt control returning to his body.
Huff, huff.
As his vision brightened, rough breathing could be heard from all around.
The visible ground of the beach covered with sand.
A white mist emerged with each breath.
Looking around, individuals with well-trained bodies were seen.
Each of them carried different weapons.
Spears and shields, long-handled two-handed axes, a single-handed axe and shield, and more.
Leading the way, Idohyuk held a short-handled axe in each hand, having chosen the dual axes.
“Who wishes to become Odin’s warrior first!”
At that moment, a cry was heard.
A massive man standing in the center of the ground.
Thud.
The man shouted loudly and drove his two-handed axe into the ground.
His axe sparkled as it caught the sunlight.
Surveying the surroundings, the man asked again.
“Is there no one? Come forth, young ones!”
-Yorund Ll Gangjine
-Forces surging
-But without mercy?
-Kekekekeke, it’s too intense for a tutorial.
The man’s name was Yorund Hlunfast.
He was a tutorial NPC prepared for the players.
Idohyuk had also received relevant explanations from Black Oak beforehand.
According to the players of Rise of Valhalla, depending on the weapon chosen, Yorund would guide them in parrying, striking, shield techniques, and combat.
But that was when in game mode.
Most games that support both modes usually treat the reality mode as for skilled players.
Valhalla was no different, so Yorund’s role was slightly different.
“Only those acknowledged as warriors can become warriors!”
Exactly the role of judging this ‘acknowledgement of a warrior.’
If one does not receive his acknowledgment, the game will not progress, as the qualification to become a warrior is still lacking.
Since one couldn’t even defeat a single Saxon soldier, the reality mode was just a wake-up call, a kind gesture from the developers to switch to the game mode.
In other words, receiving Yorund’s acknowledgment was like a basic qualification to enjoy Valhalla in reality mode.
“Well, I shall go first. Everyone.”
With those words, Black Oak stepped forward.
Rise of Valhalla also allowed multiplayer mode.
Not only for two players but up to eight in a party.
Although adding one more player didn’t make the game easier, usually, due to the lack of help from the NPC Viking warrior 1, it made Valhalla multiplayer even more challenging.
-Dd
-What?
-Dual axes?
The chat went wild upon Black Oak’s appearance.
The reason was the equipment in his hands – the dual axes.
“Hoho. What’s 1 divided by 1?”
“-2, evil spirits.”
“-hahahaha, the twin axes of Black Op?”
“-Daggering back and forth.”
Twin axes.
Twin swords.
What are the characteristics of dual-wield weapons?
First of all, stylish.
But as difficult as hell.
That’s why Black Oak’s dual-axe play in the [It Kills Two] shown by Ido Hyuk received so much praise.
Handling dual axes that not just anyone can, he managed them more impressively than anyone else.
But Black Oak is challenging that?
“-hahahaha, laughing already.”
“Surprisingly, he might handle it well; Black Op is talented in his way.”
“True.”
“Everyone, you all know I defeated knights even with a sword and shield setup, right? It’s just that the sword and shield have turned into axes!”
With those words, Black Oak raised two axes with overflowing confidence.
Compared to Ido Hyuk, his talent might be like a firefly in front of the sun, but still, a firefly is a firefly.
Black Oak isn’t lacking in talent.
He even once attempted the Real Mode Challenge of Rise of Valkyria!
“Two axes! Ah, it’s been a while since I’ve seen a novice wielding weapons with both hands!”
“Hmm. A novice, really? Let’s go!”
Haaap!
With a shout, Black Oak rushed towards Yorund.
Training to handle dual axes?
He had practiced it to his heart’s content in his private room before starting the broadcast today.
And next to him, there was Ido Hyuk’s dual-axe play playing.
Of course, calling it a tutorial··· no, he said that a lot.
What? Just dodge roughly like this- swoosh- thud- zip- smack- is that it?
But even in such a talented tutorial, Black Oak could grasp the essence.
Why are dual weapons strong?
First, it’s the unexpectedness coming from the weapons being in both hands.
Black Oak reached out his left hand first.
Then, about half a beat later, he swung his right hand.
“Hah!”
Yorund breathed out heavily and exerted force.
In an instant, his bicep swelled.
Clang!
The axe held in his left hand was blocked first.
Yorund’s hefty axe blade directly blocked Black Oak’s attack.
Unable to push through, Black Oak’s left hand was completely thrown back.
However, Black Oak was not standing still.
The dual axes were truly ‘dual’ axes.
Although his left hand was blocked, he still had a one-handed axe in his right hand.
This was indeed the superiority possessed by the two weapons!
The relentless onslaught from both sides was truly the flower of the dual axes!
Black Oak’s right hand moved swiftly.
Thud!
···However, slower than Yorund’s axe handle.
“Oof!”
Suddenly, the hurled axe handle struck Black Oak’s head.
Although protected by a leather helmet, the force contained in the axe handle toppled Black Oak over.
Due to the nature of virtual reality, pain in the head area was not felt, but instead, a dizziness that shook the brain was experienced.
“Ugh···”
Black Oak groaned as he sprawled on the ground.
-hahahahaha
-3-second cut hahahahaha
-Hmm, interesting. Will he really? You saw it correctly!
-hahahaha, the dual axes are intense.
Laugh-filled chats poured towards him.
“You should go suck your mother’s milk some more!”
Yorund spat out, seeming pleased with himself.
