Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 131
Advertisement
The manager of eight monster herding teams, Jinyoung Lee, who was always close to Asirante to provide full support, did not think Asirante was strange for standing blankly after getting rid of more than 100 monsters. The message that signaled the start of the 4th anniversary event and the selection of the 60 squad members also rang to him.
It was not just him and Asirante who received the message.
"I hear that the 4th anniversary event starts tomorrow. Did you hear that, too?"
"No, it's today, not tomorrow. The message says it starts now."
"Well, we will be moved to Ludon's arena in 24 hours, so it starts tomorrow anyway."
"Oh, if you consider that, you are probably right…"
Manager Lee did not pay much attention to what the members of the seventh monster herding team were talking among themselves because he was not included in the 60 members, be it today or tomorrow.
But Asirante is one of the 60, so Lee thought that's why Asirante checked the message so carefully because he might have received a different message compared to him or the members of the seventh monster herding team.
But all of a sudden Asirante launched an attack against a monster.
"Ice Rain!"
Lee was puzzled because Asirante suddenly attacked a regenerated monster using an AOE skill. Anyway, the eight monster herding team had already herded more than 100 monsters for Asirante to hunt, and he had never stopped moving because of just one monster before.
The members of the seventh monster herding team continued to whisper.
"Uh? He didn't even use Ice Field, let alone Ice Storm. How did he kill the monster with just one stroke?"
"He used Ice Rain, right?"
"Of course. The Ice Storm used by Asirante is completely different from Pouring Hailstone."
"How is it possible to hunt a monster with just one stroke of Ice Storm?"
"…I don't know."
They kept whispering about Asirante's new skill.
Manager Lee was sick and tired of such a conversation about Asirante because they talked about some other things about Asirante that he had never heard before, although he thought he knew pretty much everything about Asirante.
But Lee immediately used a Memory Bead because he was instructed to film anything about Asirante, no matter how trifling it was. And that's why he was so close to Asirante all the time.
"Wow!"
A 30% increase in my combat power.
Even though I didn't use Ice Field, I could confirm the majestic scene of the monster being killed with one stroke of Ice Rain.

So, I opened my mouth to Manager Lee.
"Let's move to the next monster herding team quickly!"
I had buffs that only applied during the event period.
Since I wanted to use the buffs fully during this period, I asked Manager Lee to move to the next herding team with me.
23 hours later.
I played the game while eating, sleeping, and taking breaks because I didn't want to miss something really important while being carried away with the 30% increase in combat power ahead of this important event.
Then I had a close conversation with my father, elder brother, and sister, and even exchanged text messages with Bora Yon of the Mirae Group.
[Kali: I still do not understand Chairman Hong's decision not to include you in his team.]
[Lumen: Well, I'm not competent enough to participate in the 4th anniversary event...]
Her ID was Kali. Since I sometimes communicated with her through messages like this after we exchanged IDs at the last meeting, I responded to her as naturally as possible.
[Kali: Well, I just don't know why he made such a decision.]
[Lumen: ....]
I suspected it for a long time, but she seemed to have a discerning insight.
[Kali: Anyway, I hope his decision won't interfere with your growth. I am really cheering you on.]
[Lumen: Oh, thanks.]
I ended the conversation with her who expressed some worries about me.
At that moment, some memories of our childhood came to my mind.
We were sort of bosom friends, and very close to each other. Of course, I can't remember when we started to become distant. But I shook my head.
In no time, I tried hard to shake off any idle thoughts about my faint childhood memories, for I should not be foolish enough to make the mistake of showing that I know her when I entered the Ludon arena.
"Check status window."
After shaking off my idle thoughts, I decided to check my status window once again before moving to the cafe in the central plaza of Northwood Castle which Daeyu's Chairman Suh decided as the meeting place of his team members.
[Name: Lumen, Asirante
Level: 453
Number of kills: 1284, Number of deaths: 0
Title: Only Closed Beta Max Level Achiever and 5 others.
Health: 1,873,000 / 1,873,000
Mana: 1,467,500 / 1,467,500
Strength: 1740 Agility: 1740 Health: 10930
Willpower: 6425 Intellect: 13280
Remaining Stat Points: 0

Remaining Skill Points: 0
Traits: IceMan, God of Enhancement, Mutual Growth.]
"Great! My new title is still one of the six I have."
Of course, the effect of my leveling up was also great.
Thanks to Mutual Growth, I gained the stat points unseen at level 453 before by increasing the stat points I gained from leveling up by as much as 2.5 times.
Moreover, the stats I gained were not only due to leveling up. I had no choice but to pay attention to my new title because it increased all of my stat points by 300.
Anyway, after checking my status window, I hurried to Northwood Castle.
Obviously, I was still a Daeyu member, so if I showed up later than Chairman Suh, I would undermine his prestige in front of the four veteran players with whom I was supposed to take part in the event.
As long as I stayed with Daeyu, I intended to act as Chairman Suh wished.
When I arrived at the cafe in the central plaza of Northwood Castle, the eight men except for Chairman Suh were already seated. So, I also sat down right away amid their fantastic welcome. In fact, there were many challenges against the No. 3 Captain team led by Chairman Suh, and I played a decisive role in defeating such challenges.
Of course, I didn't intend to show my extraordinary power from the beginning.
But their challenges interrupted me several times while I was absorbed in hunting, so I decided to act boldly because my ID was still Asirante on the surface, and I would be able to hide 30% of my power even if I showed everything except for Blink with zero cooldown. Indeed, the power of Blink with zero cooldown was enormous.
With 20 minutes left to enter Ludon's arena, Chairman Suh showed up, leading a group of men.
After that, he didn't say anything special except for mentioning that we should do our best and try to rank in the top 10.
At that moment, a message rang.
[The 60 men selected in each region for the 4th anniversary event are now being moved to Ludon's Arena.]
Shuuuuuuuung!
Along with that message, I felt like I was being dragged somewhere, and soon a huge central colosseum emerged. So much so that the arena located in the north of each city or castle looked like a toy compared to it. But I didn't care.
But I was surprised to find something really unfamiliar to me.
Although all exchanges between regions were blocked by the system, namely, by the channel or wall, there were all kinds of foreign users of 'Revival Legend' gathered around me.
Besides they used their own native languages.
"Где, черт возьми, это?" (Where the hell is this?)
"It's amazing."
"Peut-être que les plus grandes puissances de chaque pays sont rassemblées." (Probably, these guys are the users of other countries.)
"Apakah Anda mencoba bersaing dengan mereka." (Does this mean I have to compete with them?)
"但你為什麼聽到這個對話?" (Oh, how come I can understand what they're saying?)
I understood some English, Chinese and Russian conversations, but at the same time I could also hear and understand what they were saying with their own language.
And it was not me alone who could understand other foreign languages.
Even if the people here used foreign languages new to them, they could still get across their messages to each other without any difficulty.
Of course, it was possible that some of them knew other languages, but the number of people carrying out conversations here was too many for this to be the case for all of them.
I was really surprised at this strange scene, but there were not many who were as surprised as me. In other words, it meant that they were very familiar with this game 'Revival Legend'.
Of course, I understood the situation to some extent because the 60 people gathered here from each country were probably the top players who had a good knowledge of the game.
At that moment a message rang.
[I take my hat off to the 60 members from each country who have been selected through fierce competition.
-Since you have been selected as part of the 60-member group, you will each be given 2,000 coins.
Special rewards will be given to the regions that have users that rank in the top 10
-Exactly one minute later, the 60 members in each region will be moved to where the Tower of Glory is located, and you must defend the Tower of Glory to the end.
-The event will proceed until only one region is remaining.]
Then there appeared another message indicating the start of the event in one minute.

In a world where only wealth and power mattered, he was literally at the bottom of the food chain. He fucking hated it. Always having felt that he was destined for something greater than what was essentially a beggar’s life, Michael held hope that things would change with the arrival of the Day of Gaia’s Gift, which happened exactly halfway through the year. It was the day in which everyone that was fifteen years old was given access to the System and was given a ‘Class’ depending on your aptitude, two if you were exceptional and lucky. It was his hope that he was given at least one class worthy of becoming an Adventurer, which would help him start his path to a life of wealth, fame, luxury and pleasure. Being an orphan that never knew his parents and having no one that he cared for nor that cared for him, it was not surprising that these were Michael’s goals.
