The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 54
Episode 54. Misunderstandings are free (2)
Guild Gaon’s Analyst.
Nam Chul-min confirmed additional updates.
『New monsters are added.
‘Demon King’s Infantry’: Lv.350
‘Demon King’s Army’: Lv.400
‘Demon King’s Centurion’: Lv.420
‘Demon King’s Fighter’: Lv.420….]
“Whoa.”
To see the monitor and its update history alternately.
A sigh came out spontaneously.
A panoramic view of Frost in the video sent by the filming drone.
It was natural that the obscurity prevailed.
“Isn’t it the end of attacking the castle gate?”
Yes, I was struggling just to attack the castle gate.
The real thing started after the castle gate collapsed.
Look at the number of Demon Kings waiting behind the castle gate.
A level 350 monster.
Even if they couldn’t do it, it seemed like there would be a thousand of them.
A scale that cannot be compared to that of Count Ascura.
But at the same time, it was also understandable.
Nam Cheol-min looked at the update history again.
“…the demon king army.”
Devil.
If the boss monster is the king of demons.
Yes, it’s not strange that Frost fell.
Nam Cheol-min shook his head.
wear in-ears.
I told Gaon’s executives, including Nam Tae-min.
“Monsters are waiting behind the castle gate. That there is no time to rest. It would be better to make sure you manage your life force and magic power. Don’t dwell on the contribution quest.”
Support Jik─
At that moment, the monitor screen cut off.
Nam Chul-min’s sigh grew deeper.
“okay. We crash down to the last drone.”
Befitting the name Demon King.
They were clever.
It’s like they don’t want to give out their information.
The shooting drone was destroyed as it appeared.
“I still think it was cheap. fortunately out of misfortune. It’s because their ranged attacks don’t seem to be great.”
Nam Cheol-min now has only one sight left.
It was only a video sent by his younger brother Nam Tae-min.
however.
‘It’s quiet.’
Nam Tae-min was different from usual.
because he’s my brother
I could figure out why.
‘As much as I was excited, the shock must be great.’
For Nam Tae-min, Frost was a city of great significance.
To the extent that he could call Frost his hometown in Arcana.
Such Frost was trampled on.
That too vividly in real life.
The decapitated heads seen through the eyes of Nam Tae-min.
Nam Cheol-min was able to notice.
That his brother’s silence is a silent anger.
So, I added a word.
“Taemin, don’t get too excited. know?”
I don’t know if that’s possible.
In fact, it was to the point where even his own fingers trembled as he watched on the monitor.
Nervousness, anger, worry, anticipation….
Because of many complex emotions.
‘In this situation, maybe the only person who can be fine…’
…isn’t Ho-yeol the only one?
That’s when I think about what I’ve shown so far.
Because I couldn’t even imagine the nervous look of Ho-yeol.
I was curious because I thought so.
“…Would you like to make some progress?”
There are a total of 10 castle gates in Frost.
Gaon was quite far from the Hoyeol side.
Cheol-Min Nam was astonished when he accessed the Internet.
“…is this the siege I knew?”
Arcana’s common sense second to none.
His common sense as an analyst was collapsing.
*
Kugugu Palace─
The collapse of the gate was a signal flare.
Tadada-!
With Harkon Jesica Enoch at the forefront.
The Knights of the Lion Heart run out like a flash.
The Shadow Mercenary Corps follows him.
I watched the scene for a while.
‘strong.’
Although it was fleeting, I could feel the gap.
No matter how much the Demon King’s army was disciplined.
The difference in weight class could not be ignored.
Goo-!
Harkon’s sword that glows with sword energy.
As soon as Harkon swung his sword, the ranks collapsed.
Killed instantly in one hit.
It was because even the shield he lifted was cut off like tofu.
“charge!”
Tadada-!
The ranks of the enemy were disorganized.
The Knights of the Lion’s Heart didn’t hesitate at all.
Digging between the demon king’s army.
The number of the Demon King’s army was reduced in an instant.
Phew—
there was no hesitation in their actions.
Swag—
like a lion that caught its prey.
Kwajik─
like that lion’s heart.
Even with the momentum of the Demon King’s army several times over.
He didn’t even look shy in the slightest.
I was amazed all over again.
‘Wow.’
Indeed, the mighty power of the strongest knights in the empire.
Even the demon king’s army can’t keep up with them in many-to-many fights.
Yes, I should have been surprised.
‘Because the Knights of the Lionheart are amazing from the beginning.’
In that sense, the Shadow Mercenaries were unexpected.
There were only ten people in total, including leader Kichi.
But I could tell just by looking at it.
‘Each person is not normal.’
systematic movement?
As Kitsch said, there was nothing like that.
However, each of them was making fun of the Demon King’s army on their own.
Even the players who joined it.
“We will support you too!”
“Thank you, adventurer.”
“Healers immediately catch up! Stop arguing with the guild party and treat the injured first!”
Of course, the reason the players joined was because of their contribution.
Because it was the same ally on the siege side.
The act of helping an ally also seemed to affect the contribution.
There is no favor without reason in this harsh society.
Yes, there is something exchanged between them, so they are cooperating with each other.
I’m fast in my social life again.
‘I can save magic power.’
Anyway, I was benefiting from it.
Because I was able to take a step back and watch the battle.
Thanks to this, the mana consumed to destroy the castle gate was being regenerated.
In that momentary break, I calmly completed the subject matter.
‘…There’s no need for me to step out, is this?’
Above all, my strong back…
No, even if the level of my allies was high, it was too high.
Was it the last name of the emperor?
That alone would fill you with desire.
Aren’t they the Knights of the Lionheart with the goal of rescuing survivors and recapturing Frost?
It was only natural that their morale was incomparably higher than usual.
In addition, the fighting power of the shadow mercenaries exceeded my expectations.
however.
‘Just because I figured out the subject.’
It didn’t sound like he was going to keep his back.
That’s it, each one of those demon lords.
Because it was a waste of experience and contribution to me.
Of course, it is necessary to reserve as much mana as possible.
‘Thinking of the Seven Deadly Sins of Greed…’
Wasn’t it me who poured all my magic into defeating the helpless guy?
Even if he had grown up since then, his opponent was the Demon King.
Because the more thorough the preparation, the worse it was.
therefore.
“Knowing when to step in and when to back off.”
Even while conserving mana as much as possible.
You have to earn a significant contribution.
Even so, an action that did not go against the pride of Grandfel.
I spoke shamelessly.
“Such moderation must also be part of formality.”
…it’s getting more and more shameless. really!
Okay, let’s skip the lines that make your hands and feet tingle.
The important thing was that the action was what it was.
There is no greater riddle than this to the listener.
But not for me.
Yea I’ve done that a few times already.
I mean that kind of behavior.
There was no hesitation because the verification had already been completed.
It is natural that the series of processes is also extremely rapid.
A subject to explore that is more familiar to me.
and skilful intervention.
I thought while looking at the magic manifested.
‘Eat raw, that’s what I specialize in.’
Quad deuk-!
*
Frost was overflowing with things to see.
Even at the gates where the siege was going on, there were close to 10 of them.
High-ranking guilds, each attacking the castle gate.
On top of that, there are even star players who command celebrity-like popularity.
Even their appearances were already being broadcast on dozens of channels.
If so, among the many attractions.
Who is getting the most attention?
The answer to that is inside the laptop monitor.
It was shown as a real-time audience rating graph.
“…Chief! #1 in the same time slot!”
The news that broke out in silence.
The viewer ratings of the VBC channel exceeded 20 percent.
Considering that it is not terrestrial.
Its ripple effect is more than double, so it is not too much to consider.
But there was no fuss.
Even president Nam Jin-man, who couldn’t stop watching the ratings.
“Noisy. Let’s watch that first.”
“Oh yes. I’m sorry…”
He didn’t even pay attention to the ratings graph.
It was because I was so immersed in the studio situation.
Compared to terrestrial broadcasting, VBC is more flexible in programming.
It was Hyun Yong-seok, PD of Today Arcana, who was in charge of directing this special program.
It was all thanks to his strong insistence.
“In short, it’s a Lee Ho-yeol special.”
how many hours.
Recapturing Frost, which may take several days.
Hyun Yong-seok pushed ahead with organizing a special program highlighting only Lee Ho-yeol for that long time.
It was practically a gamble.
No matter how great Lee Ho-yeol was, there was always fatigue in everything.
If you turn the channel, a completely different picture unfolds, but how many viewers will continue to watch only Lee Ho-yeol?
There were many opposing opinions at the organizing meeting.
however.
“I knew it would be like this. I…!”
Because it was just rain.
Lee Ho-yeol.
His performance was so great that it made me not even think about touching the remote, let alone turn the channel.
It wasn’t a joke from the start.
Kugu Palace—!
The gate collapses in an instant.
The battle between the player and the demon army started.
The performers were amazed by the appearance.
“…Ho managed to capture the castle gate by himself!”
“It is truly an unbelievable use of skill.”
“The moment I speak, Harkon’s sword strike!”
“It’s a level players can’t keep up with. that one.”
“It looks like the shadow mercenaries are following right away. Expert, how do you see the level of the shadow mercenaries?”
“The evaluation of mercenaries in Arcana is simple. The only thing that can judge their ability is the commission fee. The shadow mercenary’s commission fee is at an astronomical level…”
“Ah! The moment I speak!”
A movement that had no choice but to stop explaining was captured.
Ho-yeol, who had been silent, began to manifest magic again.
Quad deuk-!
A memory that I forgot for a while at the same time as the familiar sound of the scene.
“Yes. When it comes to Lee Ho-yeol, that’s it!”
Boulders protruding from the ground.
When Ho-yeol was first exposed to the media in the past.
The skill that made Ho-yeol misunderstood as an alchemist.
“This is the skill that saved our Gaon and Inazuma from danger!”
Demonstrating stone pillars and stone walls.
Ho-yeol’s appearance in stopping the cavalry’s charge and assisting Gaon and Inazuma became a hot topic. In that sense, Ho-yeol’s actions made sense.
“I will assist a strong ally. Is that what you think?”
“Yes, it is. No matter how strong player Lee Ho-yeol is, the fact is that there is still a big gap between the player and the Arcana…” “
Ah! The moment I speak!”
However, this explanation was also cut off.
Because this time, it was captured that there was no choice but to do so.
The cast members who were watching the screen stuttered.
“…what kind of skill is this? Are you an expert?”
“I don’t know. I’m seeing it for the first time in my life too?!”
“Viewers. Do you believe!”
in the rising dust.
that showed up.
“It’s the real stairs! Player Lee Ho-yeol…!!”
Dozens of stone steps connected to the castle walls.
And the appearance of the players climbing those stairs.
That wasn’t all.
Shu Shu Shuk –
A ranged attack by the flying demon army.
Quadduk—
even a huge barrier that surges in response.
Even if it’s a step back from the front.
Hoyeol’s performance was too influential to be called a mere aid.
Yes, if I had to argue, this isn’t like an assistant…
“I’m perfectly ‘commanding’ the battlefield…!”
The appearance of a commander who perfectly controls and coordinates the war situation.
The cast couldn’t help but marvel again.
“The players, of course. Knights of the Lionheart. And to even lead the shadow mercenaries? You can’t even believe it when you see it. really!”
“Looking at it again, that outfit is a bit like a conductor…
”
“Isn’t this like the appearance of everyone putting spoons on the table prepared by player Ho-Yeol Lee? You can probably expect that he made a huge contribution!”
I couldn’t help but question it again.
Lee Ho-yeol who has such ability.
How could he have remained silent until now?
Are we still unable to guess even that class?
The presenter opened his mouth sincerely.
“This is the moment when you really wonder about the past!”
*
Quest window blinking without rest.
I checked the current contribution.
