Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 260
Advertisement
[Super Beauty: You have never hunted with someone else, right?]
[Lumen: ...]
What my sister said was true. I have never hunted with other people until now.
Looking back, it was natural that I hunted alone because I was lacking in EXP, and I could not afford to party and share EXP with the party members.
Besides, there was no hunting ground whose level was so high that I had to form a party to hunt.
'Check status window.'
Anyway, I opened my status window first without responding to my sister.
Then, the status window that showed my investment of 1800 remaining stat points yesterday appeared. More precisely, it was a status window that showed an increase in Intellect by 1800, Stamina by 1800, and Willpower by 900.
However, since I entered the level 1300, level 1400, level 1500, and level ???? hunting grounds in one day, all my stats went up by a further 600.
Of course, Mutual Growth did not apply to these stat points just like the all stat point increase that titles usually granted because they were not increased due to items or skills.
In other words, in just one day, my Strength, Agility, Stamina, Willpower, and Intellect increased by 600.
Of course, the other players also received an increase in all stat points, even though it was not as big as mine. They all received an increase of 300 stat points in all their stats.
It was natural that there was a huge gap between the other players and me because I obtained this kind of remaining stat points very often ever since I obtained the Mutual Growth trait.
'Man, I'm really strong.'
I felt like I got used to it because I always moved alone and looked at this kind of status window. Moreover, just before this quest, I moved as the Constellation Hunter who was more powerful than I was now.
So, I thought other players could easily hunt the monsters here. Besides, the players here were not ordinary users, but the elite players of each guild.

"Hmm. Hmm."
First of all, I cleared my throat a couple of times.
Obviously, it wasn't my intention, but I looked arrogant to them. Even if it was not to the point of arrogance, they might have gotten the impression that I looked down on them by saying, 'How come you can't hunt these monsters?'
But I didn't apologize.
Rather, I opened my mouth in a strong voice.
"The time given to us is exactly one month. After this one month, our monopoly on the hunting grounds of level 1300 or higher will also be broken, and the double buffs for golden rings, items, and coins that we currently receive will disappear. So, I'll lead you because I want to make the most of this opportunity."
This 'Revival Legend' is not simply a game for us to enjoy or blow off steam like any other game. Obviously, it was a game where our survival was at stake.
So, I had no intention of enjoying the party hunting in a carefree mood from the beginning.
Nor did I have the intention of keeping in pace with other players in a relaxed manner.
Of course, I could have hunted alone in a situation like this, but the current party included my family members including my father and mother.
Besides, there were elite players of the Myongin Guild full of loyalty to the company.
So, even if it hampered my progress, I had no intention of abandoning them.
Rather, I was thinking of moving with them as much as possible.
"..."
"..."
"..."
First of all, everybody remained silent when I declared that I would take the initiative to lead them.
In no time, my father, the current leader of the party, opened his mouth.
He referred to me as Asirante, not Lumen or Juyoung.
"Good. For one month, I'm going to entrust my position as leader to you, Asirante. Please take care of us."

Since I never thought the 19 players would have difficulties hunting the monsters in this level 1300 hunting round, I didn't consult with my father beforehand about taking over his position as leader.
However, my dad handed over the leadership position to me without any objection.
Of course, I could fully understand my father's action because he also knew that it was more beneficial to the party as a whole if I took over.
In other words, there were a total of 14 players including myself from Myongjin among the 20 players here.
So in the end, most of the remaining stat points, EXP, items or coins they would obtain by hunting the boss monster under my command would belong to Myongjin.
That's why this was an opportunity that my father, the head of the Myongjin Guild, could never give up. Anyway, no one was against my father's decision, so I took over command.
After that, I said, "Please follow me by all means. I have no intention of helping you or caring about you. Our target is the boss monster here. However, as for the single healer, please take care of her!"
I was sure that my dad, brother, and sister would follow me well.
And the other players would have no difficulty following me.
But I had no choice but to take care of my mother, the only healer.
So, I asked them to take care of the healer, making a nonchalant expression to not give anything away.
After that, I turned around and penetrated into the group of crocodiles.
"Kheeeeeeeeeng!"
"Kahhhhhhhhhng!"
These crocodile monsters looked like normal crocodiles with short stubby legs supporting a large body. But, unlike what their appearance indicated, they were actually very fast.
They moved very quickly, snapping their jaws to attack me.
But I liked their swift movements because it made it easy to herd them with minimal effort. Of course, they didn't know they would be killed by me.
When they gathered to attack me, I made an ice terrain using Ice Field and Thin Ice.
After that, I used level 9 Blizzard and Ice Rain.
I didn't use Ice Tornado on purpose, because just like Blizzard, it was a heavy-hitter, and so it was much more efficient to use both skills separately rather than together given their long cooldowns
Of course, I didn't stay idle while using Blizzard and Ice Rain.
"Ice Weapon."
[You have used level 3 Ice Weapon.
: Cold ice energy is embedded in the +6 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword.]
Puck! Puck!
"Kheeeeeeeeen!"
"Khaaaaaaaang!"
The Ice Emperor's guardian sword showed tremendous power when it was +5 Enhancement, but it was now +6 Enhancement.
Moreover, the Ice Emperor's guardian sword was equipped with level 3 Ice Weapon by default.
And it could also be reinforced by its user's Ice Weapon skill.
In other words, the Ice Weapon skill, which originally could not pass level 3, was now applied to level 6 on the Ice Emperor's Guardian Sword.
Perhaps that's why the crocodiles hit by my +6 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword screamed in pain. And the various chunks of ice that appeared on their bodies where they were struck was just a bonus.
Anyway, I easily killed more than 15 crocodiles and moved straight to the front.
And this time, I herded together over 20 crocodiles. Of course, the cooldown for Ice Field, which was upgraded to level 7, was not back yet, let alone level 9 Blizzard.
But it didn't matter because level 3 Thin Ice's cooldown was back already, which alone was enough for me to generate an ice terrain, albeit a weaker one.
After that, I used my hidden skill right away, which I had saved until now.
"Ice Tornado!"

Glitched! Uplift Arc
[Winner of the April 22 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] In 2202 the System reached Earth. Thankfully it had learnt from previous uplifts and implemented an introductory arc to acclimatise the new participants rather than chucking them in the deep end. The previous practice of just dumping unsuspecting beings into a System designed for the growth of the multiverse had led to catastrophic and sub-optimal results. The return on investment was abysmal. That old trope was so over-cooked - after nearly extinguishing itself through negative returns new policy was required. That was 356 trillion local years back. Now over 5600 successful uplifts had joined the ranks of the multiverse. But the System was always learning, always growing. Still there were glitches. Mostly minor. Mere irritants really. Sometimes even they were catalysts, triggering a fresh expansion. Soon the System would understand why. Our Earth was 7912th. - Ascend - Battle - Challenge - Dominate - Expand - Gro... - Glor... - Where’s the eff word? - Glitch... File corrupted. ---END SYN---
