The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 122 (Part 1)
Chapter 122: God Tier (Part 1)
God Tier.
As the name suggests, items of this rank hold the highest value among all items.
“Especially weapons, helmets, armor, gloves, and shoes. If all five types are matched to God tier, they exert an immense set effect.”
One of these kinds has come into Ryu Min’s hands.
[You are combining God tier items.]
[The item will be converted to one suitable for your current job.]
[Combination successful!]
[You have created ‘Thanatos’s Black Armor’.]
Thanatos’s Black Armor.
It’s an item that Ryu Min had made even in the previous regressions.
He looked at the item information with a smile.
[Thanatos’s Black Armor]
– Category: Armor
– Rank: God
– Defense: 2,000
– Effect: +1 to all stats per level, 67% chance to deflect the enemy’s attack upon being hit.
– Durability: 20,000/20,000
– Usage Restriction: Master rank or higher
– Description: A cuirass made using the divine power of Thanatos, the god of death. Grants additional effects when worn as part of the set.
– Thanatos’s Apparel Set Effect (1/5)
– 2-set effect: ?????
– 3-set effect: ?????
– 4-set effect: ?????
– 5-set effect: ?????
“An increase in all stats per level. As expected of a God-tier item.”
Moreover, there’s a high chance of 67% to deflect attacks when hit.
It’s useful in critical situations where one must face either a significantly powerful enemy or multiple enemies at once.
Truly an option befitting a divine item.
It’s only natural for Ryu Min to have a smile on his lips.
“Moreover, God tier items have set effects, making them synergize better the more you collect.”
He would have to gather materials again for the next God-tier item, but it wouldn’t take too long.
He couldn’t guarantee exactly when though.
“At least, it won’t take as long as 8 months this time.”
The reason can be understood from an additional message that came with making the God tier item.
[You are the first player to combine a God tier item.]
[As a reward, you have obtained ‘Condensed Ether’.]
Condensed Ether, a core material for God-tier items.
A difficult-to-obtain item was easily given as a first-time reward.
“With this, making the second God tier item won’t be difficult.”
Ryu Min wore the item with a satisfied smile and opened his equipment window.
[Weapon – Death Scythe]
[Helmet – Demon’s Ring]
[Armor – Thanatos’s Black Armor]
[Gloves – Ogre’s Gauntlet]
[Shoes – Phantom Step Boots]
[Necklace – Beads of Eternity]
[Ring – Red-Eyed Skull Ring]
Excluding the Bead of Eternity, all equipped items are of Unique rank or higher.
“Status.”

[??? : Unlocks upon reaching Lv99]
“Even without the buff from the Rune of Slaughter, to exceed 500 in stats.”
That means, with the Rune of Slaughter’s buff, it could exceed the 1,000 mark.
And with Min Juri’s Blessing, it could even surpass 1,600.
“To think it’s this much at level 80. Incredible.”
If he had received the Human Guild quest reward in the 8th round, he would have reached level 84.
“It must be because my clone, not the main body, arrived at the destination, so it wasn’t recognized as completing the escort.”
That’s why he didn’t receive the experience points for completing the Human Guild escort.
“Anyway, for level 80, this is a significant amount of stats, especially compared to other players.”
For other players to reach level 80, they would need to surpass 15 rounds.
“But the 15th round is called the devil’s section due to its difficulty.”
Only fewer than 50 people will survive.
And that’s on a global scale.
“Before then, I should secure at least 3 God-tier items.”
But it might be possible to reach the max level before that.
(T/N: Ohhh sh*t he said the thing xD)
* * *
As the round ends and players wake from their daze, most go back to sleep.
The mental exhaustion from traversing to the otherworld carries over to reality.
However, there’s always someone who moves as soon as the round ends.
It was An Sang-cheol.
Beep- Bang!
“President!”
As usual, he looked for Ma Kyung-rok’s hotel room as soon as he woke up in reality.
Ma Kyung-rok narrowed his eyes at his appearance.
A subordinate entering the president’s room at will?
Without even being called?
“An Director? What’s the reason for always coming like this? I didn’t give you the master key for this.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“It’s nothing to apologize for, but what brings you here today?”
Unlike usual, Ma Kyung-rok was curious to see An Sang-cheol’s excited expression.
‘What good news could it be?’
Has he finally started something with Seo Arin?
That would be great.
To grab and hold onto it this time.
But contrary to expectations, what came out of An Sang-cheol’s mouth was disappointing news.
“I’ve reached level 40! I’ve finally advanced to Expert rank!”
“Ah… Is that so? Good for you, Director An. You’re killing your superior.”
“Eh? A-Ah, I’m sorry.”
“Don’t even say sorry. I know you’re not doing this on purpose.”
Ma Kyung-rok turned away bitterly, and An Sang-cheol belatedly realized his thoughtlessness.
He really hadn’t considered this.
“I’m sorry. I was too happy and forgot to consider the president’s feelings….”
“I wish I could quickly reach level 40 too. But I’m only level 38, how is this possible?”
Ma Kyung-rok vented his frustrations.
“And recently, I even lost my rank for the first time. Well, lost isn’t quite right since it sounds petty. I should say I didn’t rise.”
