The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - Chapter 130 (Part 1)
Chapter 130: Sharing (Part 1)
Mid-August has passed.
During this time, Ma Kyung-rok steadily took care of the trash as planned.
“Already, nearly 300 trash have been taken care of by Ma Kyung-rok.”
Yet, there were still many vermin left in Player Haven.
Those who would surely harm ordinary people if left unchecked.
That’s why Ryu Min had the chairman work hard to create a wanted flyer.
Of course, it was a bait using Photoshop.
‘It’s easy to catch a fish because the fish’s brain is the size of a pea.’
In a warehouse different from where Ma Kyung-rok operated,
Ryu Min used a trace-erasing skill, and five corpses disappeared.
Like Ma Kyung-rok, Ryu Min was also focused on cleaning up the trash.
‘Although I can’t gain dark magic, I can plunder items.’
On the floor where the bodies had vanished, items extorted through torture by Ryu Min were plentiful.
Magic stones, unique material items, store equipment items, and various miscellaneous items.
Even such filthy criminals had a lot of items, having survived up to the 8th round.
‘I should create some unique equipment by combining these up.’
Currently, there are unique materials on the market but no unique equipment for sale.
Because no one knows how to make them.
‘Since not enough unique design blueprints have been released yet.’
The real drop of unique blueprints starts from the 9th round.
No one has found a recipe yet.
‘No fool would post unique equipment for sale, even if they don’t know how to use it.’
Would anyone sell such precious unique equipment just to make some money?
Ryu Min had no intention of making and selling unique items.
He was wealthy enough, with PP’s stock soaring, ensuring wealth for three generations.
The reason Ryu Min was making unique equipment was one.
To distribute them to potential future allies.
‘It’s better for me if they survive.’
He decided to make items for Min Juri and Christine first.
Equipment with agility for Min Juri and intelligence-based unique items for Christine.
‘Ah, I should also make something for Ma Kyung-rok so he doesn’t feel left out.’
And for Russell, Seo Arin, Ahn Sang-choel, Heo Taeseok, Jo Yong-ho, and Yamti as well.
‘There are so many people to take care of…’
But then he realized it was impossible.
There weren’t enough materials to take care of everyone.
Ryu Min decided to only take care of those he would bring to the 20th round.
‘I should at least take care of Min Juri and Christine for now. The rest… I’ll think about it later.’
Just thinking about it was exhausting.
Then, a call came from Ma Kyung-rok.
“Yes, Mr. President.”
-Prophet, do you have time?
“Now?”
-Yes. I have something to give you.
“Something?”
-I’ve been collecting items for you, Prophet.
“Items? Ah, did you extort them from criminals before killing them?”
-Of course. It would be a waste to just kill them without taking the items.
It turns out Ma Kyung-rok was doing the same thing as Ryu Min.
-I’ve collected a lot of useful items, so you can come and choose.
“Ah, thank you. You could have kept them all for yourself, but to save some for me…”
-We keep receiving invaluable information from you. It’s only natural to have some give and take.
Ma Kyung-rok spoke kindly, but Ryu Min knew there was another meaning behind it.
He wants to keep me tied to him materially to continue receiving information about the next rounds.
It’s almost like a bribe.
Anyway, it worked out.
He had been in need of materials to make unique items.
Considering how many Ma Kyung-rok had killed, there should be enough materials.
“Where is it? I’ll come right now.”
Ma Kyung-rok waited in a hotel room, sipping whiskey with the night view as his companion.
He glanced at the floor, covered with items extorted over the fortnight.
‘The Prophet would be surprised, wouldn’t he? Or maybe he already knows through prophecy.’
He wasn’t too surprised during the call, so it’s likely he already knew.
‘Does he also know I plan to give him all the items?’
Though he said to come and choose, he planned to give everything if the prophet wanted.
That way, he could continue extracting information in the next rounds and beyond.
‘It’s like a debt.’
Ma Kyung-rok smirked, unaware that he was actually the one being played by Ryu Min.
Knock-knock-
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, Mr. President.”
Hearing Ryu Min’s voice, Ma Kyung-rok hurriedly welcomed him.
“Welcome, Prophet.”
“Calling me to a hotel room at night, people might misunderstand.”
“Ha-ha, what a joke. Please, this way.”
While Ma Kyung-rok laughed, his lips twitched slightly.
‘He’s grown a lot, hasn’t he?’
Though he outwardly praised, Ma Kyung-rok somewhat still underestimated Ryu Min.
If it weren’t for the prophecies, he would be a nobody, his combat ability seemed negligible.
Even he himself admitted he couldn’t win against Me in a fight.
‘How does the Prophet fight, anyway? Just barely surviving based on future information?’
He hadn’t considered this before.
“Prophet, a sudden question… How do you fight?”
“Me?”
Ryu Min, who had been reading his mind, responded cheerfully without a hint of panic.
“It’s a secret.”
“A secret?”
“I need to have at least one secret. If I spill everything, how will I make a living?”
“Ah, you make a good point. Ha-ha.”
Ma Kyung-rok hadn’t expected him not to answer.
‘Even if his combat ability is as such, I shouldn’t underestimate his cunning nature.’
Though he mentally guarded himself, he was almost open-hearted.
Letting him into his personal space was proof enough.
“Is this from the criminals you extorted?”
“Yes. Quite a lot, right?”
Though Ma Kyung-rok smiled, he was unaware.
Ryu Min had also extorted quite a collection.
“Choose anything you need from here. You can have it all, regardless of the number.”
“Ha-ha, then…”
Ryu Min confidently selected items, primarily unique material items.
“Hm? What do you plan to use these for…?”
“Mr. Ma, haven’t I mentioned before? Seeing prophecies, I come across various information.”
“Yes, but what does that have to…”
Instead of answering, Ryu Min demonstrated.
Ryu Min opened the crafting window and placed the unique materials on it.
Pressing the combine button with expert-level armor as the main ingredient,
With a flash,
The materials disappeared along with the light, and a splendid item was born.
Ma Kyung-rok’s eyes widened in astonishment.
