Martial God Regressed to Level 2 - Chapter 187

< God of War Returned to Level 2, Episode 187 >

“Mom… … Are you alive? really?”

Yoon Se-ah asked in disbelief.

It was still vivid in my eyes that Seongjia, who used the sacrifice, was petrified and eaten by the darkness.

So when Yoon Se-jin said he was going to explore North Korea, I didn’t have high expectations… … .

“No, it’s still too early to judge. The ring just reacted slightly.”

“How did you react?”

“When I cleared the fourth dungeon, the ring itself vibrated strongly.”

At the same time, Yoon Se-jin took out her necklace with the Aegis ring on it and showed it.

“It wasn’t the vibration I felt when clearing the dungeon. It was a movement from the ring itself.”

“uh… … that ring. The color has changed a bit.”

“okay… … I couldn’t see it, so I didn’t recognize it.”

The ring of Aegis, which used to shine in pure white, but now has a hint of dark purple.

“Can you give me a minute?”

“okay.”

Seong Ji-han took over the ring and carefully watched the traces of light.

It felt similar to black magic, but something slightly different.

“Ariel. Do you know anything about this aura?”

[well… … I don’t even know that much. I don’t think it’s shadow energy.]

“Hmm… … .”

Ariel, a shadow elf, didn’t know more than this, perhaps because the magic power remaining in the ring was too small.

‘It seems to be a little different from the energy of death seen on the battlefield of chaos… … .’

When Seong Ji-han couldn’t judge the energy like that.

Yoon Se-ah, who was watching closely from the side, snatched the ring.

“Oh this… … I think it has something to do with the Void?”

“vacuity?”

“Yeah, I’m Boyd Archer. I am familiar with the power of the void.”

Saying that, Yoon Se-ah took out her bow and launched a void arrow.

A transparent arrow that shimmers in purple light for a moment and then disappears.

“Look at me.”

When Yoon Se-ah waved her bow, the arrow that had disappeared reappeared.

“Really?”

Indeed, the power she felt from her arrows was similar to the energy of the ring.

When Seong Ji-han clearly remembered that this kind of energy was empty.

Flash!

The light of the ring and the Void Arrow resonated.

A sound leaked from the ring side for a moment.

= Yoon… … .

The voice cut off after saying only ‘Yoon’.

But that alone made it possible to figure out whose voice it was.

“uh!? this… … mom!?”

“… … okay. Your voice is clear.”

Is your sister really in North Korea?

I couldn’t stay still until I heard the voice.

“Brother-in-law. I will also help clear the dungeon.”

“no… … It’s fine right now. You have to clear the dungeon with the ring, but it’s not that you lack power to clear it. Rather, we need more support.”

“Is that so? Lack of support from the Federation Investigators?”

“The investigation team’s support is fine, but the problem is that there are not enough players with the support gift ‘Search’. Exploring the dungeon core was not as easy as I thought.”

The scope of exploration was different depending on the gift level.

The gift grade of the searchers dispatched to Korea was B to C, so it took more time than expected to discover the dungeon core.

If you do one thing there, it took time to organize the dungeon-related data and upload it to the federation.

There was a reason why the sword king didn’t make any progress even if he personally went out and wiped out the dungeon monsters.

“If you are a player with Search… … Shall I try to get one?”

“This voice… … Are you the guild master?”

“yes that’s right.”

Perhaps because it was Christmas, Lee Ha-yeon put more effort into dressing up than usual.

I quietly listened to the conversation and intervened in this topic.

“I heard that the Reasoning Guild secured a lot of people with search skills in the past, but they were just teasing them because they had nowhere to use them. I’ll borrow some people over there.”

“Isn’t it bothering you from the opposite sex? I hear you keep asking me to come back these days.”

“It’s okay, Master. If it bothers you, you can contact other teen guilds. A guild that has secured people with search skills isn’t just for the opposite sex.”

Lee Ha-yeon replied with a relaxed face.

A seat makes a person.

Maybe it’s because I’ve done a lot of business with world-class giants while being the guild master of the standby guild.

The teen guilds in Korea didn’t look too worried anymore.

“Then let me ask you a favor. Oh, and those with excellent search skills are scouted here. Because it’s a GP, you can use it as much as you like.”

“Your owner. I think B class is the best in Korea… … .”

“B grade is the best. Didn’t the level of the support gift increase last time? Difficulty level lowered.”

“Yes, that’s why they say B-class is the best. There may be more talented people abroad, so I will try to look abroad and scout A-class.”

As long as Sung Ji-ah’s voice came out, don’t rely only on the alliance’s support group.

Seong Ji-han decided to set up an investigation team in the guild on her own.

It’s a GP, it’s completely piled up because there’s no place to use it.

There.

“Say that the Akashic Page will also be supported for those with A-level abilities. Then it will be a little more appetizing.”

“Ah, the Akashic pages… … ? The price has been skyrocketing these days… … .”

“I have it right now.”

Seong Ji-han decided to use the Akashic Page he had obtained from Shizuru.

“If you’re going to write Uncle Akashic Page, can I ask someone I know?”

“who?”

“Brother Sophia. I heard that it was raised to Search Ability A because of the lowering of the difficulty level.”

Sophia’s older brother was Kristoff, who often appeared as a commentator during Battle.net international matches.

It was uncertain whether he would accept the offer because he was in a firm position globally in the Battle.net industry.

“okay. Let’s ask.”

“huh. The Akashic Page makes me greedy.”

I decided to use the Akashic Page as bait.

“… … Thank you for your support.”

“It’s my sister’s job, so of course. But can I really not go?”

“okay. Wiping out the inside of the dungeon is easy.”

“All right. Please feel free to contact us if you need any help.”

At Seong Ji-han’s words, Yoon Se-jin slowly nodded.

“of course. I hope the opening match ends soon.”

“Ah, the opening game… … ! I completely forgot about it because of my mother’s work. What game is going on? Ariel. Do you know anything?”

Yoon Se-ah asked Ariel, who was knowledgeable on Battle.net.

Even though she is subject to the limitations of the tutorial, she still told me everything to the best of my knowledge.

OK.

[Opening match? that’s up to you to decide Just think of it as a normal fighting and killing game. Befitting the nature of Battle.net. but… … .]

“Just?”

[I can really die now.]

“… … really die? in the game?”

At Ariel’s words, Yoon Se-ah asked with a stiff face.

“Like the last time the owner had a promotion match. Are you saying the penalty could be death?”

[okay. Killing the enemy’s core players is the best way to drop the opponent’s race to a lower rank than yourself.]

“That’s right, but… … .”

“Dying in a game… … I can’t believe it.”

Maybe it’s because I’ve been playing Battle.net as a game for 10 years.

Despite Ariel’s words, the listeners couldn’t realize it.

Except for Sung Ji-han.

‘A lot of players died during the opening match… … .’

to those who don’t believe it.

The event that made me realize that real players were dying was the catastrophe of the opening game of the Space League.

The World Tree Alliance has been waiting with a trap dug since the first game.

Humanity went over there and suffered greatly from the start.

‘I’ll pay you back this time.’

The opening game is just around the corner.

For this day, I deliberately stopped growing at platinum this year.

Seong Ji-han’s eyes sank coldly as he thought of the opening game.

* * *

[Enter the sword king standby guild!]

[Standby guild recruiting search talent. 5 to 10 times the previous annual salary is basic. Even an Akashic page for those with A-class abilities?]

After the meeting of Christmas.

The waiting guild was looking for someone with search skills right away.

You generously invest the money you’ve earned so far and offer great conditions.

People flocked to the guild.

-Wow, the conditions are crazy… … ?

-Give me the Akashic page? I heard that this is over 500 billion these days.

-ㅇㅇ These days, as training gifts are in the limelight, each guild says it’s worth it to make a guild for the 2nd division.

-Giving it to a searcher… … Isn’t there a huge reward for clearing the dungeon?

-Yes, there seems to be something. The Sword King has been running dungeons for a while now, right? After that, this kind of investment came in… … .

People wondered what the hell they saw in the dungeon exploration to make such an investment.

-Rather than that, the opening match entry spring??

-There was a list of 2000 people.

-Recruiting 2,000 people hahaha What kind of game are you recruiting so many people for?

-When are you coming next year really hahahaha

More than that, what became the hottest topic was the Space League opening game that was just around the corner.

Earth finally enters the main game after a long tutorial of 10 years.

Humanity is optimistic rather than worried about the world after the tutorial.

I wanted to see the opening game soon.

Meanwhile.

[Jihan! I heard the story from Se Ah!]

Seong Ji-han was receiving a video call from Sophia.

“Ah, you mean exploration?”

[Yeah~ My brother said that he never did anything like search until now… … I was interested in talking about the Akashic Pages! Oppa, come and see!]

[Nice to meet you, player last name. This is Kristoff.]

Then, as if he had been waiting, Kristoff brought his face into the video call.

He looked at Seong Ji-han with bright eyes.

[As a fan, it’s an honor to meet you like this! Thank you for keeping the secret so far even though my younger brother talked about his search ability.]

[You are quiet. that’s too much You can talk to Jihan! We’re going to be a family.]

[I have a girlfriend with the last name of the player… … My brother is young, so his thoughts are short. I’m sorry.]

[No, that’s… … ! Oh, I can’t tell you.]

[…] … Player last name anyway. I heard from Sophie, but I couldn’t believe it, so I’ll ask again. Do you really intend to support the Akashic Page?]

“Yes.”

Sung Ji-han nodded.

“But this is not for sale. You should use it to strengthen your abilities.”

[Of course! ability to explore… … I didn’t intend to use it because it looked dangerous. I think it would be fine to use it under the protection of the Sword King. I’ll have to take a break from my commentary work.]

Even though he has a solid position as a commentator in the Battle.net industry.

Christopher was showing a forward-looking attitude, probably not wanting to rot his support gift.

“Then are you coming right away?”

[ah… … Still, I’m going to finish this opening match commentary. This is something I really wanted to do as a commentator. Did the Sword King also participate in the opening match? Wouldn’t the schedule fit even if you finish and go?]

“Yes, there is plenty of time.”

[But what a pity! If the player’s castle had become Diamond, everyone would have been able to participate in the game… … .]

With the opening game of the Space League approaching.

Information about the opening match began to be released little by little by the system.

Among them, what stands out is the conditions for participating in games 1 to 5.

[Only Diaryers and above can participate in the Space League.]

When this condition came out.

A lot of people couldn’t hide their regret.

– I’ll hug you, too.

– Seong Ji-han can’t go to the opening game!

-The things I couldn’t level up because of Shizuru come back as a boomerang like this.

-What about the delayed level up because of the People’s Association?

-Anyway, it’s not helpful, really lol

One of the strongest players on Earth, Seong Ji-han, couldn’t play.

[Still, 100 platinum players were supposed to be included in the player lineup as a reserve. Wouldn’t there be a chance?]

Let’s say that with Sofia next to me with a sad face.

Sung Ji-han smiled slightly.

“I feel good.”

[feeling… … What?]

“Yes. I think I will receive the MVP for this opening match as well.”

No, I can’t go to the game. What are you talking about?

You have to play to get an MVP.

Christopher had a puzzled look on his face.

“I will give you a present because you are coming to Korea. Bet me the MVP.”

Seong Ji-han spoke with a confident face.

[No, even an MVP should be able to play in the game… … .]

Is it okay to trust this person and go to Korea?

Christopher felt uneasy about whether he had made the right choice.

and after a few days.

on channel 0.

= Everyone! The day has finally arrived… … !

The opening day has arrived.
