Chapter 263

Yoo Jonghyuk’s attribute evolved and the game flowed smoothly like water .

[The participant ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ has killed the helper ‘Founder of Humanity’!]

[The participant ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ has won the ‘Living Legend’ title!]

The constellations hadn’t yet adapted to the game and weren’t able to follow Yoo Jonghyuk’s movements . The constellations were inferior to Yoo Jonghyuk in terms of utilizing game items, understanding the terrain and the extra buffs .

[The participant ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ has started to write a new myth on this Mythical Battlefield!]

[The participant ‘Yoo Jonghyuk’ is raising his name in the rankings of the Mythical Battlefield!]

Victory or defeat was decided in an instant .

[The time limit for the first game is over!]

[The winning team will be determined based on the pointed obtained during the time limit!]

[The winning team of the first game is the ‘Yoo Jonghyuk – Kim Dokja Industrial Complex . ’]

We got a total of six points . In addition, the sentence we took away from the opposing team meant we had two sentences .

『 The flower of the story blooms in the cruel Demon Territory . 』

Jang Hayoung stared at the sentence we had obtained several times before looking up blankly . “…We really won?”

“Yes . ”

I also didn’t feel it was real . No matter the situation, we obtained the first victory against the mighty constellation… it wasn’t a level to be elated by the fact that things went ‘as planned . ’

[The Demon King of Lust and Fury is looking at you with interest . ]

[Many constellations are cheering for the Yoo Jonghyuk – Kim Dokja Industrial Complex!]

[You have obtained 100,000 coins each as a reward for the first game!]

I was able to see Yoo Jonghyuk approaching from a distance . I wanted to say something nice but Yoo Jonghyuk opened his mouth first . “The messages were sent by this person . ”

Before I could ask what he was talking about, Biyoo popped out of Yoo Jonghyuk’s arms .

[Baaat!]

Biyoo seemed invigorated as she swung the Uriel doll like it was a toy .

[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ insists that she didn’t do anything!]

Biyoo threw the doll into the air and entered my arms . I stroked her head a few days before asking Yoo Jonghyuk, who had grabbed the doll .

“Where the hell did you go?”

“I went to the vicinity of Melledon . ”

“Why there…?”

“There was an item I had to obtain . ”

“Item? What is it?”

“You don’t need to know . ” Yoo Jonghyuk’s expression was somewhat dissatisfied as he stared at me . “In addition… I thought it would be helpful to start at an unexpected position for the selection . ”

“It was a good judgment . ”

In the first round, the spawn location different depending on where you were when the game started . Yoo Jonghyuk hadn’t departed from the same place as us and was able to farm items using a completely different route . This made it easier for him to aim at the enemies .

[Hahaha, something amazing happened . However, the game isn’t over until it ends!]

I heard Bihyung’s voice from the air . His expression seemed somewhat excited because we won .

[5 minutes later, the second game will start!]

It wasn’t the time to be drunk on victory . This game had a total of three rounds . I looked over at my weary party members . The bodies of the dead Samyeongdang and Osu were revived again .

“Now we just need to win one more time . The game is over if we win two rounds first . So everyone, just try a bit harder…”

I tried to cheer them up but the condition of my party members wasn’t good .

“Samyeongdang, why do you look like that?”

Samyeongdang had turned into a wooden gong and was making a rattling sound .

[That… I spent too much of my probability . ]

In this game, death didn’t mean the disappearance of the incarnation body . However, the thing that remained unchanged was the number of resources consumed .

“Osu?”

Yiiip!

Just like Samyeongdang, Osu died in the last game and he was now almost as small as a guinea pig . It seemed they had overconsumed their probability and energy in the last game . The constellations of the same rank had significant differences in level due to the quantity and quality of their accumulated stories .

It was Han Myungoh who opened his mouth . “I-I can’t do it anymore . ”

Han Myungoh had run away safely until the end of the first game . He was like a lizard as his cut off leg slowly grew . Nevertheless, his face had aged 10 years during this short period .

“It’s fine . You’ve worked hard . ”

No matter how much their power was suppressed, the opponents were still constellations . He had faced the status of a constellation for more than an hour and any normal incarnation would collapse .

The small consolation was that the Breaking the Sky Master was unharmed .

Woof woof!

In the first game, the Breaking the Sky Master helped Yoo Jonghyuk hunt one of the constellations . Me, Yoo Jonghyuk, Jang Hayoung and the Breaking the Sky Master . Now there were only the four of us in the team . Understandably, four wasn’t enough to win the game .

Then Yoo Jonghyuk opened his mouth . “I will try to call additional power . ”

“Do you have any constellations?”

“I don’t know if reinforcements will come in time . I’ll just put them on the list for now . ”

I had no idea of who he would call . Did Yoo Jonghyuk have any connections during this period?

Yoo Jonghyuk continued talking, “We have to change our plan in the second round . Our positions as well . ”

“Why? Can’t we do it like the last round?”

At Jang Hayoung’s question, Yoo Jonghyuk glanced at me and silently shook his head . I ended up answering instead . “Yoo Jonghyuk’s attribute is powerful but it isn’t invincible . ”

“…It seems almost invincible . ”

“It was because the constellations didn’t know much about this game . ”

From the second round, the penalty on stats would be slightly released . The constellations who had looked down on us would start to collect attributes and skills related to the game and would narrow the gap using an enormous amount of coins . Yoo Jonghyuk might have Ruler of Amusement but there was a limit to him alone .

I pondered for a moment before declaring to the party members . “I have an idea . ”

***

“We have decided to cooperate with the Bercan Industrial Complex . ”

[…Are you telling me to join forces with Papyrus?]

“It isn’t the time to cover hot water with cold water . ”

A deep sigh emerged from Duke Melledon who resembled a rhinoceros . All the constellations on the battlefield had been destroyed by a single incarnation . They were caught off guard and hit in the back or had a sword piercing their feet . There were even constellations who fought against him one on one and were defeated .

“We can’t let them win this time . You should know this . ”

[Don’t worry . I was careless in the last round but this time will be different . ]

Founder of Humanity, Manu gritted his teeth as he raised the Primitive Spear .

[I have learnt enough about this game . ]

In fact, messages had been coming from the air for a long time .

[The constellation ‘Founder of Humanity’ has purchased the ‘Special Game Talent’ skill!]

[The constellation ‘Thunder Eating Bird’ has purchased the ‘One Week Game Master’ item!]

The dokkaebis were grinning widely at the suddenly buying binge .

[Oh my, constellations! Going to this extent…]

The constellations didn’t like this expression on the dokkaebis but the more important thing was their pride, which had been crushed by the incarnation .

[Let’s go . ]

The game started and the constellations moved in unison . The influence of the attributes and items was great . They used the terrain to cover their actions and were fully aware of how their stigmas and skills were applied to this game .

The all-rounder of the team was the incomprehensible incarnation . If they killed him, the game would end .

[Over there . ]

The Thunder Eating Bird glide and created strong winds . Amidst the wind-swept bushes, the owner of the sword was revealed . It was Yoo Jonghyuk .

“Now!”

The moment that Duke Melledon gave the signal, four constellations rushed at once .

[It will be different from before!]

The Founder of Humanity swung his spear, followed by a ray from King Oedipus . Yoo Jonghyuk couldn’t avoid the attack and blood flowed from his forearm . The shadow of General of Vanara split up and pursued the gap revealed by Yoo Jonghyuk . A sharp rod brushed past Yoo Jonghyuk’s side . There was the sound of flesh being hit .

Now the power of the constellations was limited to 30% . That damage that Yoo Jonghyuk received was different from before . However, Yoo Jonghyuk held up well despite the constellations’ onslaught .

[…What? Why isn’t he dead?]

Duke Melledon felt it was strange and used a skill to figure out Yoo Jonghyuk’s physical state . Surprisingly, Yoo Jonghyuk still had more than 70% of his health remaining .

“T-This guy’s health is a bit strange . Don’t tell me…!”

Then the screams of the constellations were heard from the rear .

***

The enemies probably believed that Yoo Jonghyuk was an all-rounder .

“Breaking the Sky Master!”

The Breaking the Sky Master flew forward at my signal . Like a spear of light dividing the space, the Breaking the Sky Master penetrated the torso of the Thunder Eating Bird who was aiming at Yoo Jonghyuk . The battered bird fell down and the Breaking the Sky Master tore at the bird’s torso with her fangs .

As soon as our position was exposed, the nearby constellations started to run this way . There were a total of three constellations rushing over . The long distance damage dealer Jang Hayoung received an agility penalty so there was no chance of winning when it was close combat . Even so, the situation was different this time .

“Kim Dokja, buy me 10 seconds . ”

“Understood . ”

Jang Hayoung took a stance, his left hand forward while his right fist was pulled back to his shoulder as he started gathering strength .

[Jang Hayoung has used the points earned to unseal a specific skill . ]

[The helper ‘Jang Hayoung’ is preparing the ultimate . ]

In this game, stigmas and skills over a certain power level were treated as ‘ultimate . ’ In addition, the ultimate could only be released with points obtained in the game . Jang Hayoung used the points we had just earned as an assistant .

[The helper ‘Jang Hayoung’ has activated Breaking the Sky Force Punch Lv . 10!]

There was the sound of a cannon bursting and a mighty wind was created as Jang Hayoung’s fist tore through the space . The wind crushed the ray of light coming from King Oedipus and blew away two of the running constellations .

Breaking the Sky Force Punch . I had seen it in Ways of Survival . It was a technique made out of boredom by the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint who pursued the path of the sword .

…I didn’t know she could make such a powerful technique when bored .

[The helper ‘Jang Hayoung’ has killed the helper ‘Thunder Eating Bird’!]

[The helper ‘Jang Hayoung’ has neutralized the helper ‘General of Vanara’!]

I thought it would be a success just defeating one constellation . Yet one constellation died and one suffered a fatal wound .

“Didn’t I say that I was a hard worker?”

Jang Hayoung laughed despite obviously overdoing it . Even Jang Hayoung would find it hard to achieve such rapid growth . Maybe he made a deal with the Unidentified Wall .

[Kill him!]

The enraged constellations ran in a messy manner . Jang Hayoung also ran towards them .

“Kim Dokja! Go! Do it according to the plan!”

If I tried to save Jang Hayoung here, the time would be delayed . This time, it was me who had the ‘sentence . ’ Shortly after I ran towards the gorge, a scream was heard from behind me .

[The helper ‘Breaking the Sky Master’ has been killed!]

[The helper ‘Jang Hayoung’ has been killed!]

…Shit . Fortunately, Yoo Jonghyuk was still in good shape . Whether he was a tanker or all-rounder, Yoo Jonghyuk was Yoo Jonghyuk .

I went down to the bottom of the canyon and dark fog started to pour into the vicinity . I had calculated this . If the fog had begun, the ‘monster’ would soon appear here .

Then a constellation was felt from above the rocky terrain .

[You are quick, Demon King of Salvation . ]

It was an unexpected move . Melledon’s side should be tied up with Yoo Jonghyuk . How did they already reach here? The moment I saw the shadow on the canyon rocks, I realized what happened .

There was the shadow of a giant mummy and a goddess with a pointed scorpion tail . They were constellations of the Bercan who hadn’t been seen in the last game .

‘The Last Pharaoh’ Cleopatra and the ‘Scorpion Goddess’ Serket…

Surprisingly, King Oedipus of the Melledon camp could also be seen . I smiled bitterly . “…I see . You have decided to join forces?”

Serket’s tail swelled up and fired a stinger towards me . I was about to avoid the attack when old bandages released by the Last Pharaoh wrapped around my ankles . Close range damage dealers were vulnerable to long range damage dealers . My movements were limited so it was obvious that I would die like this .

King Oedipus seemed ready to finish things . I reflexively curled up . A powerful storm swept over my body .

I could hear the laughter of the constellations . It was a laugh that was convinced of my death from this blow .

[You have converted the points won in the last game!]

[You have unlocked a certain skill with the points!]

I slowly raised my body in the dust . The laughter disappeared from the constellations’ faces as they saw me .

[The constellation ‘Poked Out His Eyes’ is astonished!]

[The constellation ‘Scorpion Goddess’ has wide eyes!]

The white fur wrapped around me protected me without a single scratch .

[The exclusive skill ‘Bookmark’ has been activated!]

It had been a long time since I used the third bookmark . I had been hesitant to use this bookmark for quite some time . I didn’t think it was polite to my dokkaebi .

[Your understanding of this person is very high and the skill abilities are strengthened!]

[The exclusive skill ‘Beast King’s Sensitivity Lv . 10 (+1)’ has been activated . ]

I felt the warm of Biyoo curled up in my arms . The third bookmark, Beast Master Shin Yoosung . I looked up at the constellations on the canyon with the white fur wrapped around me .

[The participant ‘Demon King of Salvation’ will receive the position compensation effect . ]

I didn’t have the same attack power as Yoo Jonghyuk . Nor could I learn things quickly like Jang Hayoung . However, I had something better than them .

“I’m sorry but I’m the all-rounder in this game . ”

The Demon King Selection would end in the second round .
