The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 238
Episode 238
– Hello viewers. [Connect Broadcast Seat] delivers news from Connect over the past week. Let’s start now.
A broadcast about Connect was being broadcast on a regular channel that was not a comprehensive program.
After talking about various things for a while, they changed the topic.
– The news we will cover this time is about the urban warfare that took place in the Brennan Republic. Among them, the Battle of Rayson, in which many players are known to have participated, became a hot topic. Reporter Kim** introduces related news.
– The siege of Leisen City, which attracted a lot of attention due to the confrontation between the Four Ripple Association and the Purple Guild, ended just two days ago. Many experts and communities were predicting a landslide victory for the Ripple Association. What was the result?
A video of the siege of Lei Son City was broadcast on the screen.
– As you can see, the result was a landslide victory for the Purple Guild. Only 5 top rankers of the Purple Guild almost massacred 1,000 Ripple Association players…
From then on, the broadcast showed the results of the battle and follow-up information.
The community that watched the broadcast was ablaze with various stories.
-Celebration! Purple Guild wins by a landslide! I believed it!
└To be honest, I was a little worried, but after watching the video, I wonder why I was that way. After all, you can’t trust the words of self-proclaimed experts.
└I thought the difference in numbers was unavoidable-0-; Rankers are really different.
└I knew it would turn out like this from the moment the Heardbojap Association came out. Why bother picking a fight with the Purple Association, which is running so well haha
– I got goosebumps ever since Dohyeon came out riding a horse alone. The idiots who attacked 5 to 1 were really fed up when they knocked out the second jig knight!
└Where are all the analysts hiding who say a player can never beat a knight one-on-one?
└I gained hope after seeing Dohyeon. Even players can beat NPCs if they try hard!
└└Yes, no.
└└Anyone who has ever sparred one-on-one with instructors in the Free City without any skills will know how absurd that is. The instructors aren’t even knights. Did you encounter a knight in the territory? Just think of him as dead.
└Aren’t Bae Do-hyun and the Purple Guild Rankers too strong? I don’t think it’s at a level that regular players can compare to.
Even after 1 year and 3 months since logging in, the existence of knights was still known to players as an insurmountable wall.
Of course, any melee class player over level 50 can use the Mana Blade (sword technique).
If we use the Mana Blade, the symbol of a knight, and various skills, how are we any different from a knight?
Many 2nd job advancement players who had such thoughts were only able to realize this after directly mixing swords with knights on the battlefield.
Expensive skills that players cherish.
That’s just a variation of the sword technique that any NPC knight who wields a mana blade can use.
Would an ordinary person be able to beat a professional athlete if given the same physical abilities and equipment?
When power armor is added to the mix, knights, especially armor users, are like monsters to the player.
But Bae Do-hyun broke that.
In addition, with the scene of Kim Il-woo and Manninger kneeling the opposing knight during the siege, it was natural that there was an uproar in the community.
* * *
The siege of Leisen City ended with a landslide victory for the defenders.
The Purple Guild’s rankers who showed off their true skills were literally overwhelming.
Although there was a cheat named Bae Do-hyeon, other guild members such as Kim Il-woo and Han Seo-hyun were also great.
Not only did they wipe out the players of the Ripple Association, but they even took down the enemy knights.
Even finishing the battlefield was their responsibility.
As the battle on the walls gained momentum, the enemy command abandoned its troops and attempted to flee.
Bae Do-hyeon, who had noticed this in advance, chased them with Il-woo by stepping on a telekinetic platform, and Seohyun’s phantom black hawk ‘Muk-i’, which had become huge, caught the back of the enemy line with Seohyun and Linda on board.
In the end, the enemy’s leadership was captured by the Purple Guild and the urban battle ended.
The Tenba family achieved the best result by not only protecting the city of Leisen, but also annexing the city of the Zeredu family that had gone to war.
Since the head of the family and other leaders were captured and the troops were wiped out, the Zeredu family had no choice.
Cluck, cluck, cluck.
Bae Do-hyeon and his party were running through Gwando again.
The number of people in the group had grown to about twenty people.
This was because other guild members from the Purple Guild had joined.
“Tsk. “I expected it, but I never thought it would run away so quickly.”
Linda licked her lips with regret.
This is because the executives of Saebyeol Guild and Ripple Association, including Lee Sang Kim, were missed.
They stayed at the enemy’s main camp throughout the battle, not even coming near the walls.
And as defeat deepened and the main camp showed signs of retreating, they left the battlefield using teleportation magic.
Even though their guild members and association members were still fighting on the castle walls.
“it’s okay. Now let’s not worry about those little brats. Anyway, killing them once doesn’t mean much damage to them. “It might have been better for me to run away.”
Ilwoo’s words also had a point.
If they had not run away and fought to the end, taking care of the members of the association, they would not have lost their trust even if they had lost their lives.
But they chose to flee, and that would be fatal for the fledgling association.
The players will not trust the leadership, but the Connect nobles who watched the battle will also not treat them as anything more than mercenaries.
“Still, I don’t like it. It reminds me of my old boss who only told me to do things and didn’t take responsibility. “If I meet him next time, I will absolutely blow his head off.”
Ilwoo just shrugged his shoulders at Linda’s sharp tone.
“pack saddle. “Who will we be dealing with this time?”
When Manninger asked, Bae Do-hyun said with a grin.
“The opponent for this city war is…”
* *
* -Purple Guild. Pajuk’s 6th consecutive victory in the Brennan Republic civil war!
-King Maker! We will show you properly. Purple Guild’s scary run!
-Brennan Republic Civil War. Thanks to the Purple Guild’s performance, the Gallegos-McGregor alliance gains victory.
One month after the Lei Shen City Urban War.
The Purple Guild’s performance, led by Bae Do-hyeon, was dazzling.
Although it was not a large battlefield, he participated in five urban battles between small towns where voting rights were at stake and won all five times.
Depending on the situation, the Purple Guild’s rankers, numbering from 5 to 20 people, showed off their skills to the fullest.
The double-digit rankers defeated the knights in a fierce battle as if they were no match for knights from local cities.
Even though the three-digit rankers in the middle and lower ranks of the guild could not overwhelm the knights, they at least proved that they had the skills to deal with them.
In the Brennan Republic, the Purple Guild began to be called the Knights rather than simply mercenaries.
Naturally, not only did the ransom and treatment go up, but the Purple Association branch of the Brennan Republic was swarmed with envoys from each family looking for them.
The First Players Association also began activities in earnest.
Immediately after the siege of Leisen City ended, the association released the group quests recommended by the association.
-Purple Association recommended quest revealed!
-Once again, the predictions of various experts are completely wrong! The association kept its promise.
-Purple Association. Negotiations completed with all forces in the four kingdoms. The choice is left to the guild and players!
After the association’s notice was issued.
Many experts predicted that the Purple Association would provide quests biased toward one faction.
It was thought that quests would be organized around forces that had similar or friendly routes to the First Guild.
And those who dislike the Purple Association unanimously argued.
That the association will try to manipulate players to suit their tastes.
However, the association’s actions were completely different.
The association has negotiated with all powers that have expressed their greed in the current line of succession to the throne.
And the powers uniformly accepted the Purple Association’s proposal.
In any case, their view of the association was no different from that of the Mercenary Association.
Just as the Mercenary Association does not sign exclusive contracts with specific kingdoms or forces, the Purple Guild also opens its doors to everyone.
And as promised to the players, they were promised a considerable level of compensation and treatment.
Each faction that observed the Battle of Leishen City recognized the players’ abilities and potential.
Naturally, the players cheered.
Although various conditions had to be met in order to participate in the association quest, it was of a different level from the compensation that an individual or guild could obtain.
Of course, there were some who were not happy about this situation.
-Real Players Association. “The Purple Association is defrauding players. He criticized the Purple Association, claiming, “Giving people a choice is nothing more than a deception!”
Some experts say that the Purple Association’s quest is nothing more than a show of force.
Players who follow the Purple Guild’s choices. Is this truly freedom of choice?
Some major media outlets began to criticize the Purple Association.
The reason was because of the Purple Guild.
Regardless of the association’s quest, the Purple Guild began activities in specific camps in each country.
The 100 guild members were divided into groups of ten to twenty and intervened in territory wars in each country.
The result was victory in 18 battlefields except one.
In one place where they could not win, regular knights appeared on the small battlefield, causing the war to grow, and the territory war ended with no winner or loser.
In the process, the perception that one would win by following the ‘Purple Guild’ naturally developed.
In the beginning, there were many people who participated on the opposing side of the Purple Guild, but now, a month later, no one was on the opposing side of the Purple Guild.
This was the reason why opponents of the association and some media criticized the association.
But the players’ reactions were completely different.
-Why are there articles criticizing the association? Shouldn’t we rather praise him?
– That’s right. Thanks to the association, the quest rewards are good. It’s not an association quest yet, so there’s no black cow playing alone?
-It’s not wrong to criticize the association. Honestly, it’s true that everyone follows the Purple Guild, right? It’s like there’s no choice at all.
└I caught you! Go away from the Purple Association spies~
└There are still those who put the Purple Association and the Purple Guild on the same line. An association and a guild are completely different organizations. This means that the Purple Guild is not the rattle of the association.
└The above is correct. If I were Kim Il-woo, I would have given all the association quests to the guild’s advantage. It’s a huge deal that the other side can also choose. Isn’t this the same as expressing your will not to involve the guild in the association?
-Purple Guild gangsters. Letting people choose the opposite side and then destroying everyone if they go to the opposite side, how is that any different from a gangster, you bastards!
└What is this XX? Isn’t it natural to meet an enemy in a war where people die and die? If you feel unfair, fight and win.
└Anyway, there are people everywhere who tell you to give them two if you give them one. If they let me choose a side under good conditions, that’s fine. What more do you want? It was your ‘choice’ to turn the Purple Guild into an enemy, you fucking idiot.
In this way, Raoul and Kim Il-woo’s strategy worked well.
Showing players the benefits of making their own choices without taking away or forcing them to choose.
Thanks to this, the association gained a reputation for fairness and players were moving in the direction they wanted.
‘Of course, this is all because of power.’
This move would not have been possible if there had not been a Purple Guild that could overwhelm other players.
And to achieve this very result, Raoul has invested generously in them for over a year.
There was a bigger gap between Purple Guild members and regular rankers than they thought.
Acquiring skills.
Bae Do-hyun provided Purple Guild members with the know-how that helped him rise to the top in his past life.
Additionally, the most skilled players, whose faces ordinary players rarely see, taught them sword and weapon skills.
Not only did they provide the highest quality equipment made by processing by-products from the dungeon, but they also provided high-quality information and quests that the general public could not know.
The Purple Guild members were already becoming as strong as the First Knights.
‘By the way, it’s time for a response…’
Unless the Delamian-Boyd alliance is stupid, they will understand the reason for the increased power war.
So wouldn’t you want to somehow get rid of the thorny Purple Guild?
And the moment they reveal their claws.
‘I’ll put an end to this pointless power war.’
Bae Do-hyeon’s eyes fell coldly.
