[Quest: Recapture Frost]
Frost fell into the devil’s clutches.
Recapture Frost.
That bravery will be rewarded.
─Current contribution: 0p
…It’s a quest!
The recapture of Frost, which began with the manifestation of the magic of heat.
at the same time.
A quest came to the mind of the players gathered in Frost.
That was enough to wake up the panicked players.
“How long has this been a quest?”
“The reward will be paid according to the contribution, right?”
“Let’s try crashing into it.”
“Everyone get ready. We will attack right away.”
Of course, the guild immediately rushes into a siege.
“Brothers. Can’t you just watch this?”
Even NetTuber players who came to Frost for the purpose of relaying.
This quest is for those who once enjoyed Arcana.
Because it was a quest that could not be skipped.
“I tried hard to hold it in, but I can’t stand it if I do this too!”
Wasn’t it Frost who had a considerable influence?
Marlon, who was like Frost’s mascot.
A situation where the residents of Frost, including him, had their heads hung on the wall.
The quest properly anointed the emotions he had barely suppressed.
Posts flooded the player community as well.
-I can’t stand quests hahaha I’m low level, but I’m going too
-Originally, the important thing in siege warfare is the quantity omg
-The level doesn’t matter, so let’s all gather together
-If you recapture it, will you have something to brag about? I’m going right away lol
Yes, the reasons were different.
The atmosphere changed in an instant.
“You are very cocky.”
without a moment’s hesitation.
Thanks to Ho-yeol who manifested magic toward the gate!
But why?
The players around Hoyeol were in a state of doubt.
It had to be.
That’s right, the magic that stretched out from Ho-yeol’s hand…
“…what is that?”
Because it was completely unexpected.
Frost’s castle gate is made of thick steel.
in order to break it down.
In other words, even pouring high-level magic with considerable power would not be enough.
But no matter how you look at the magic that Ho-yeol manifested…
Fluffy—
“…Hey, isn’t that [Light]?”
Basic skills in the basics.
The effect is just to light up the darkness.
Wasn’t it just [Light], which was just a sphere of magical power?
“…Did I press the wrong hotkey?”
“You madman. Where is the shortcut in reality?”
“No, I’m not kidding. It’s so weird that it’s a joke. suddenly.”
Fluffy—
not even one or two.
Magic sphere light flying towards the castle gate wall.
“…how high your magical power really is.”
A hundred of them seemed easy.
Do you have the energy to waste like that in this situation?
The moment the players were about to fall into embarrassment.
Light magic spheres clung to the gates and walls.
“…?”
And it was from then.
Fire-!
“…what what?!”
Pajijik-!
“Is the shape changing?!”
Whiiing-!
“Wait a minute, what?! What is that skill?!”
Marcelo, the chief wizard of the Mage Tower.
Even he admired it.
The ‘weird’ level of high heat of magic command began to reveal its true value.
To the point that I couldn’t even follow it with my eyes.
A continuation of the astute search interference expression process.
Of course, everything was visible as far as I knew.
“What level is Lee Ho-yeol…!”
expression of exploratory interference.
Aren’t those players who don’t even know the basics of magic?
All the players could do was admire.
“Surely, Sir Hoyeol…!”
It was nothing different from the Lion Heart Knights, including Harkon.
Aside from that insight, they were always knights.
Even if you recognize that it is an excellent level, it is natural that you cannot evaluate it beyond that.
“… such crazy.”
But in a situation where you know.
There was no such thing as a crazy sight…!
Shadow Mercenaries.
7th stone alkali.
he wrinkled his nose
“…!”
Magical traces from the blowing wind.
It was enough to make Alkari’s crooked spine twitch.
Alkari let out a laugh.
The stone rock kid next to him took a bet.
“Why are you laughing so badly? Inspiration?”
“Cluck. I think I know why the captain followed me.”
“what? Do you know why it’s annoying? What is it?”
Alkari looked at leader Kichi.
This kind of kitsch had a thoughtful expression.
Alkari answered on her own.
“well. At the very least, it would be better not to take part in this quest. No, it’s not just this mission. At least as long as that aristocratic ruler is keeping his eyes wide open. It would be better for you to kill that eccentric personality, Rock Kid.”
…Is this old man senile?
Rockkid made a puzzled expression.
However, Kichi’s thoughts were not very different from Alkari’s.
No, it would have been more than that.
That’s because I knew Kichi because I watched it.
‘… I’m afraid it’s like this. I told you not to meet again. Why?’
It’s not enough to manifest such advanced magic.
The fact that it even deals with swordsmanship.
On top of that, even the terrifying growth rate that went one step further.
So, Kichi’s face was bound to be complicated.
‘I can’t take that back now…!’
Lastly, to that personality that didn’t go hand in hand.
Intuition was telling me.
No matter how much I think about it, I think I got it wrong.

[Quest: Recapture Frost]
A quest that I have no reason to refuse.
Well, it felt like a bonus quest.
If you do the class quest, it naturally follows.
‘Is it a contribution system?’
─Current contribution: 0p
Valor is rewarded.
It will be rewarded according to the contribution.
Of course, aiming for first place in terms of contribution.
No such unrealistic goals were set.
‘It’s just a couple.’
Look at the number of players gathered here.
Besides, aren’t they guilds?
It was natural that he was good at many-to-many fights like now.
Of course, I also had the Lion Heart Knights and the Shadow Mercenaries.
Because their performance was not calculated as my contribution.
‘If I did, I wouldn’t have said anything.’
So, the conclusion I came to after understanding the subject was simple.
‘Let’s do at least one thing properly.’
In that sense, the top priority goal was ‘Investigation of Frost’.
I thought while interfering with the magic sphere.
‘It’s good that I practiced.’
I almost set fire to the magic tower lab, but anyway.
It was rewarding to have that possibility of use in mind.
Flame, wind, electricity, water…
The basic magic light of pure magic.
Magic of various attributes manifested from the sphere of magical power.
Could it be because of the simultaneous expression of various attribute magics?
‘I feel the consumption of mana.’
Newly unlocked stats.
I suppressed the activation of [Simmi] as much as possible.
Because it wasn’t the case right now.
But it was worth consuming precious mana.
The site of manifestation where various attribute magics interlock.
‘…found.’
Among them, I was able to find the most effective combination of attributes for attacking the castle gate.
Thinking about it again, there is no such thing as stupidity really…!
‘I can’t help it. This is my best.’
desperate struggle.
what is and what is not.
My own way to have no choice but to use everything…!
Fire (火) Ice (氷).
Frost’s castle gate was vulnerable to the combination of those two attribute magics.
principle or reason?
I don’t know about that. I wish you knew
There would be no need to consume mana like now.
But you don’t need to know any more.
‘You know how to get it right. Shoot and guess.’
As long as you get the answer right, it’s the same thing.
All that was left was to focus firepower.
I immediately manifested fire and ice.
through a series of processes.
The magic that spreads through the gates.
Indeed, it was rewarding to hit it even if it was filmed.
Jump-! Awesome—!
Because the gates that had been firmly closed began to crumble.
Exclamations erupted from everywhere.
For some reason, the players couldn’t help but be astonished.
“…You said you broke through the castle gate so quickly?”
“What is it? that skill? The destructive power is no joke!”
“…is it true?”
It’s like a heart.
I wanted to correct those evaluations.
‘To live without me…’
I struggled to attack the castle gate.
To mistake that simply for power virtue…!
But this lofty pride.
There was no way I could even budge on such a trivial circumstance.
“Ideal with Kyeong. I wasn’t even concerned.”
Of course, there was no such bird.
crumbling walls.
A ferocious force emanating from beyond.
Knock-!
Harkon, who told me, immediately put on the helmet.
“Sir Hoyeol. From now on, we will open the way.”
sereung-!
The moment when Harkon and the Knights of the Lionheart draw their swords.
Cuckoo Palace—!
The wall completely collapsed.
At that moment, the quest window flickered.

─Current contribution: 5000p
──────
Did the contribution increase by breaking down the castle gate?
‘Five thousand points.’
Since there was no comparison target, I couldn’t tell if it was high or low. But it wasn’t immediately important. After leaving the bonus quests and everything…
at the collapsed gate.
Frost’s demon soon showed up.
Indeed, it was enough to call it the Demon King’s Legion.
The ranks aligned with Oh.
Level of equipment worn.
It was as if they expected the wall to collapse.
to quick movements.
Demon King.
Yes, bright red skin.
If it wasn’t for the horns growing out of his head.
They were armed enough to be considered a human army.
It was inevitable that the momentum of the players would soften.
“…not serious.”
“I think it would be better not to approach it hastily.”
“Keep your distance.”
It was completely different from the demons I had seen so far.
The guys were methodical.
The resounding demon’s voice.
“Kill them all! Never let them in!”
Some are on the offensive.
Some are on the defensive.
It even seemed to have a specific operation.
however.
So what?
I trimmed the clothes that had been blown away by the wind.
more carelessly.
“It’s funny.”
For me, for Grandfel.
It means that even every demon is just the same garbage.
The image of the Demon King’s army is also just a collection of similar things.
It was just a piece of garbage that had been well separated.
furthermore.
“Jesica Enoch.”
“Your captain.”
“Come with me to break their ranks from the front.”
“All right.”
If you look at it systematically, this one doesn’t lose either.
‘Not just the Knights of the Lionheart, of course.’
I turned my head.
Kichi, who met my eyes, immediately opened his mouth.
“…In a way that we can assist the Lion Heart Knights as much as possible. As you have done so far, each of you will take care of yourself. you all know? Let’s start.”
Even the Shadow Mercenary Corps, which was formed through a relationship of absolute power.
So, this was the sound of confidence with a reason.
I followed them and declared.
“There is no time to waste.”
Another
class quest.
The final goal is to subdue the demon lord.
“Get out of the way. trash.”
*
There are a total of 10 castle gates in Frost.
As it was a large city, it was natural that the number of gates was also large.
That’s the present that came up with the quest.
It was good news for the giant guilds that had nothing good to compete with each other.
Especially the 1st and 2nd place in the guild rankings.
Shining and Unification.
The two guilds had no choice but to split apart.
“We are experts in this again. Aren’t we, Rocks?”
Arcana days.
Guild Shining that held the territory.
Shining had a lot of experience in siege battles.
The unification of the world was an experience comparable to that Shining.
Moreover, in siege warfare, the unification of the world had a clear advantage over Shining.
“We couldn’t have a better chance than this.”
That is the overwhelming number of guild members in the unification of the world.
Master Liuojunchun’s player ranking was only 14th.
However, the true value of unifying the world was in the number of guild members and their average level.
“charge!”
The unification of the world carried out a tactic that put the quantity at the forefront.
Their attacks poured into the gates.
Pouring mana at once and alternating with the back heat.
After recovering mana and stamina, switch again.
“Whoops.”
Liuojunchun smiled.
Yes, no matter how much you call it The Shining.
They would not be able to follow them in this siege.
Ryuo Junchun’s quest window flashed.
‘I’m sure the amount depends on this contribution.’
Frost was not in a normal situation right now.
It was unknown whether the lord would still be alive.
Liuo Junchun’s expectations grew.
‘…What if the lord is dead?’
Depending on his contribution, there was a good chance that he would become Frost’s new lord.
The lord of the big city Frost.
Even when arcana was just a game.
I dared to have a value that could not be measured.
‘I can rise to the overwhelming No. 1!’
Not only the unification of the world, but also oneself.
Junchun Liu confirmed the increasing contribution in real time.
‘Rox, you can’t even dream of it.’
As a guild master, Junchun Liu was receiving a lot of contributions to [Command].
But Shining can’t do that.
You can see that just by looking at Jesse Heinness.
Because Rox didn’t have the same commanding power as himself.
As I thought so, a desire welled up in my heart.
“Hahahahaha!!”
──────
─Current contribution: 120p
──────
Same time.
The fact that Hoyeol’s contribution has exceeded 5,000 points.
Because there was no way Ryuo Junchun could know.
He burst into madness.
“I’ll show you what my overwhelming contribution is, Rocks!”
Yes, sometimes not knowing is the medicine…
