Chapter 477: Chapter 477

Episode 477. Quest for Weirdness – Presentation (1)

Inside the Prototype Crack.

“Fuck. “What is this pattern again?”

“This is a bit embarrassing.”

“…Great monster! “Where have those kids gone?”

Each person was isolated.

At first, it was no different from a crucible of chaos. While there were players who calmly assessed the situation, there were also players who took steps to make threats.

“Ugh! surprise…!”

But fortunately, the confusion did not last long.

“…

Tiring.

News delivered through a ringtone or vibration.

It was emergency disaster information sent from AAU.

A question mark appeared on Leonie’s face.

“A signal is going off here?”

I was on the Arcana Continent just now?

I couldn’t believe it, but it was reality.

And it was the only solution to overcome this situation.

Shift the perspective to the real AAU.

“Players are accessing the link!”

“Hisagi Schreig Rox Leonie… Rankers are also sharing the screen one after another. “I think you can start quickly, branch manager!”

“Hmm.”

Park Min-jae, head of the Korea branch, cleared his throat.

And stood on the podium.

This is my first time meeting players like this…

‘Nervousness doesn’t suit me.’

Even in the past when I knew nothing.

It was Park Min-jae, who negotiated face-to-face with Rayman Sean.

Of course, that face was fake.

“This is branch manager Park Min-jae. “Let’s get to the point.”

Park Min-jae’s words and actions were still unstoppable.

Access the link like other players.

AAUs from around the world stopped when they saw Park Min-jae’s face.

“After all, the only person who can take on this role is our Mr. Park, right? “No matter how different the players are, most people won’t be able to withstand the pressure.”

AAU London Branch President.

Baker expressed his honest feelings.

Of course, Baker was not weak.

Overly brave or crazy in a good way.

Park Min-jae is just special.

“Sir, can this proceed safely…?”

Seong Hyun-jun carefully asked Yoon Soo-gyeom.

Okay.

Su-gyeom Yoon answered while adjusting his glasses.

“I hope so. “Very earnestly.”

The current operation began with one contact.

Nam Cheol-min, the analyst and brain of the grand alliance.

A phone call from him.

“…Are you talking about the crack inside the Arcana Continent?”

At first glance, it sounds absurd.

However, Park Min-jae knew how to see people and did not ignore Nam Cheol-min’s words. They immediately grasped the situation and quickly built infrastructure according to Nam Cheol-min’s opinion.

Hyeonjun Seong stuck out his tongue.

“Honestly, I thought that we had a place in a large alliance due to blood ties… but it is not normal to make a plan like this in such a situation. Nam Cheol-min too.”

Labyrinth, dungeon, wonder, etc….

For regular players, not [Explorers].

It is impossible to clear the trials one after another.

But if AAU themselves.

“I know. “I found the only move.”

Things change when we leverage collective intelligence.

Why is AAU treated like a scoundrel? It was because I knew what I knew, but I didn’t know anything about what I didn’t know. The prototype crack that players entered into such AAU?

“We will provide support tailored to the screen you send!”

Fortunately, this was something that AAU knew.

-So, in this labyrinth, you have to point to the left wall?

-…is it true? Because I’m crawling, the trap won’t trigger!

-You guys are crazy. It’s been a while since you guys are together?

Reality and Arcana Continent.

Players and AAU.

The first and largest joint operation in history.

It goes without saying, but there was unprecedented interest.

If you move your gaze for a moment, you will see SNS that are updated every moment.

Seong Hyun-jun swallowed dry saliva.

“…From the time I worked at Cosmo until now, I have been criticized on the Internet for being a monthly salary lupine. “I think it’s really the first time I’ve heard a compliment in my life.”

Yoon Soo-gyeom also took his eyes off for a moment and looked at the reactions.

– Finally, AAU has started paying for food too hahaha

– At times like this, I feel reassured haha

– I guess the old GM Jjambap is not going anywhere hahaha

That wasn’t an exaggeration. Based on the information provided by AAU, the players advanced through the labyrinth at breakneck speed. The level gap was not very important.

-it’s okay…!

Nam Cheol-min’s vision on the first screen shakes. Analyst Nam Cheol-min, who was only around level 100, seemed to have cleared the labyrinth safely.

“If it’s over there, it’s all stagnant water, right?”

These are the players who advanced to stop the great monster.

A determination to risk one’s life.

It means that you have the appropriate skills.

“You can use our support for more than that.”

That was actually the case.

Some players seem to have some leisure time.

Rather, it also brought news from the Arcana continent.

And one of them is this.

“But, sir, is this really credible?”

It was ‘Dragon Lord Dark Dragon Lee Ho-yeol’.

A hot class that no one was sure about until now. Based on the way he handled the Akshan wolf, some people assumed he was a demon hunter, but I didn’t believe him.

Isn’t this Dragon Lord a few more drinks away?

“It was definitely strange.”

Seong Hyun-jun continued after Yoon Soo-gyeom’s words.

“Right? You think that way too, right? No matter how many hidden classes we don’t know about in the Arcana Continent, the Dragon Lord is still a Dragon Lord. Just hearing that name makes it a crazy, fraudulent class…”

“No. “It’s not that that’s strange, it’s that I just couldn’t understand the fact that the general manager was a demon hunter.”

“…yes?”

Yoon Soo-gyeom’s eyes look like he finally understood.

“But if you’re the dragon lord, it’s understandable. From the enormous amount of magic power to the unexpected appearance of the Akshan Wolf, which was the last question about skill use!”

“Akshan wolf? What does that have to do with Dragon Lord….”

“If it’s a dragon, it’s possible.”

“…Yongeon?”

“Because the dragon is the king of all things and makes everything submit.”

“ah!”

After listening to this.

“Then the elder dragon lowered its head…!”

So far, he has consistently shown moves that only make sense if his class is Dragon Lord. It was the moment when Seong Hyun-jun nodded without realizing it.

-This is such a big deal.

Nam Cheol-min’s voice is heard through the chatter.

-It’s a dungeon. A live monster appears.

Dungeon.

I’m afraid to speak out.

Nam Cheol-min is seen on the screen raising his shield.

“If it’s The Dungeon, the only thing we can do is…!”

Dungeon structure.

Otherwise, all they could do was convey information about the terrain where traps might be installed. This means that from now on, players will have no choice but to use their own abilities to overcome the flocking monsters.

bang.

Nam Cheol-min blocks the surprise attack with his shield.

With that scene, everyone at AAU could feel it.

Damn, should this be considered a blessing among misfortunes?

“I guess it’s an instance dungeon, right?”

A dungeon where monsters with variable levels, not fixed levels, appear.

In that case, there was no need to worry about Nam Cheol-min dying unexpectedly right away.

Monsters around level 100 that match his level will appear.

but.

“…No, if this is the case, the problem lies with the rankers, right?”

The gaze moves to the screen of Nam Cheol-min’s younger brother, Nam Tae-min.

Indeed, Yoon Soo-gyeom’s guess was accurate.

The monster that Nam Taemin faced was not easy.

“It’s a bunch of level 650 Red Dracos…!”

Level 650 monsters form a line.

Because they were putting pressure on Nam Taemin as if they were hunting him.

Nam Taemin’s voice is heard.

-This won’t be easy.

…gulp.

Those who swallow their saliva at Nam Taemin’s words.

It had to be that way.

Immovable peak heat.

And if you exclude Oxidine, which appeared in the rankings out of nowhere.

Because those words came out of the mouth of Nam Taemin, who is number one in the rankings.

Seong Hyun-jun was overcome by ominous thoughts.

‘If you are Taemin, you might be able to break through. But…’

The dungeon was only the second stage.

There are dozens of stages mentioned in the prototype crack information. Moreover, didn’t they include [Wonders], which are considered unassailable content?

Nam Taemin also seems to know that fact.

-I hope you understand even if communication is not smooth from now on.

Everyone who was listening could feel it.

[Berserk].

At this moment, Nam Taemin said he was serious.

It wasn’t just Nam Tae-min.

The notoriety of the Arcana Continent Electric Dungeon that I had forgotten about for a while.

Someone muttered without realizing it.

“How many people like this can clear the dungeon alive…!”

No, it’s unfair. What am I talking about?

“I’m so sorry!”

Although I belatedly covered my mouth.

There was not a single person who rebuked that outrageous statement.

Even if it’s just a joke.

The severity of the threat players face.

It was because we felt it together.

-Oops!!

In a tense atmosphere.

Soon, the players battle.

No, the struggle to death has begun.

*

Nam Taemin remembered.

‘I hope you’re doing well, brother.’

If I had known something like this would happen, I wouldn’t have held it back.

How can we go around the cracks together when we have time?

I should have seen your fighting stance at least.

[The stat ‘wildness’ tightens your body.]

Barbarian’s unique skill [Beerse].

The rebound is slowly coming.

Reason was becoming clouded.

“…Damn it.”

It is an unavoidable limitation.

It’s not easy to handle sword energy and berserk fire at the same time. I wonder if Commander Ho-yeol would have said that there was no need to rush?

But…

Kwakakakak.

Nam Taemin pushed himself even further to his limits. He didn’t even pay attention to the warning message. I parried, received, and ignored the barrage of attacks and moved forward.

Somebody.

No, he knows me better than anyone else.

Even Cheolmin would say that.

Are you crazy because you want to die?

“…that’s right.”

Yes.

“I was so crazy because I wanted to die.”

The reason Nam Tae-min was being unreasonable was literally to cross the line of death. This was because it was to hold back the sword energy that was becoming more and more intense in the desperate struggle going back and forth across the firing line.

Squeak.

“…!”

A cool sensation beneath the shoulder blades.

At that moment, Nam Taemin remembered.

The teachings of Master Harkon.

-“The sword energy becomes thicker in the battle between life and death. There are no exceptions in any case. Even if Sir Hoyeol. No, even if you are the Commander-in-Chief, that is no exception.”

When I heard that, I had doubts.

Because I thought fever and life-or-death crisis were words that did not go together.

At any moment.

Because I have seen Ho-yeol’s appearance without losing his uprightness.

‘…no one is exempt.’

However, that thinking has changed a bit recently.

Because I witnessed it.

To be precise, it was because I was in charge.

The unknown smell emanating from Ho-yeol. Of course, it was unknown whether the owner of the smell was a direct threat to Ho-yeol. Because I couldn’t figure out what that smell was in the first place.

But one thing is clear.

To find out what it is.

In order to help Ho-yeol, who may be in danger as a result.

Quickly.

It was necessary to break down the wall that blocked one’s limitations.

Nam Taemin gritted his teeth and swung his great sword.

Nam Taemin’s pupil focus gradually began to blur.

Blinking vision.

[※Caution: The body is consumed by wildness.]

The side effects of berserk are simple.

Literally wild.

Going back to the beginning and not relying on weapons or equipment.

You enter the battle with a body engulfed in wildness.

Even when arcana was just a game.

Afterwards, Nam Taemin experienced side effects several times.

But this moment was different.

Even if it has been encroached upon by the wild.

Hold.

Nam Taemin’s hand was still holding the great sword.

Sword energy was blooming from the body of such a great sword.

The form of such sword energy is like…

breaking.

With the enemy right in front of you.

It was like the fur of a wild beast rising when it soars.

Nam Tae-min holding a great sword looks like a wild beast.

What that image meant was simple.

Nam Tae-min became one with the great sword.

We have finally knocked on the door to the unity of the new sword.

.

.

.

A social venue in space and time.

A place where some transcendents reside.

Parchment falls from the air.

“Examination of transcendental qualifications. His name is Nam Taemin. Are you an adventurer?”

But it wasn’t just one piece.

A shot out of thin air.

Another sheet.

Even with that, the astonishment did not end.

“…huh? You have two names, right? Now wait a minute! What is this long name?!”
