Chapter 19: The Great War I
The pillar of light was gone.
Kangou, who looks the same as Jaewoo in real life, wears a shabby beginner's outfit.
He is located in the middle of a bustling square.
"Vandals and healers of the Alhets Cemetery are invited. Must be at least level 100. Prefer the experience. We hunted for a long time. β
"Sell priestly robes, Robles Alice blesses. Please bid. If you don't know the market price, please don't talk to me. β
"Invite members to 'let's run' guilds. Must be at least level 50. Only available to active players!"
Cono scanned his surroundings.
"This is Jevin Square. β
During the six months that Jae Woo insisted on training his body, he was crammed with all kinds of information about Alth and filled his brain.
There's a lot of information in Alth's brain.
Therefore, he knew exactly where he was by looking at the statues in the square.
"The nearest training center to here has to be the Rain Training Center. β
Following his previous plan, Conou went to the training center.
Ever since he remembered Altan's geographical location, he had found nothing.
Character information. β
When he went to the rain training center, he checked his stats.
[Low Pressure 1 Kangou]
Job: Unemployed
Personality: Neutral
Job Title: Beginner
Fame: 10
HP & MP: 110/100
Stamina: 100
[Main Statistics]
Fitness: 11 (Physical Strength)
Psychological: 11 (The Power of the Mind)
Magic: 10 (Ability to use magic)
Awareness: 11 (Ability to use skills)
Points Remaining: 0
[Side Statistics]
No.
(Displayed when certain conditions are met.) These statistics will increase or decrease depending on the user's actions. οΌ
By looking at the statistics individually, you can determine more in-depth information about their features.
For example, the body exhibits muscle strength, agility, reflexes, etc.
Conou already knows the details of each of the major stats, so he doesn't need to look at them.
The bonus stats are also well distributed.
Usually, a person's primary stats start at 10, but his stats (physically, mentally and sensely) are higher.
This is due to the scanning.
Dream Gate encourages its players to scan their physical data and transmit it to the character.
This is because it turns out that the scanned characters are less stressful on the body than the normal ones.
Therefore, bonus points can be earned starting with scanning the character.
It's as if to say, "It's been done!"
"Although not many people do it. β
There are many players who customize the character instead of doing a scan. Because they will be cooler or more beautiful.
Conou is fit, able to earn bonus stats, and retains his well-trained body, so there is absolutely no reason for him to give up on scanning.
'I'm here. '
Kang'ou, who had already arrived, opened the door to the rain training center.
However...!
"Hu?"
As soon as he opened the door, something was felt on his face.
Ultra-intuitive. Definitely super intuitive!
Conou lowered his head.
This was due to the fact that a training sword flew towards his head.
"Oh?"
The old man who attacked him laughed.
"Wait, who is this old man who opened the slit?"
Con frowned.
"Try to dodge this step as well. β
The old man brandished his sword.
Conou felt that chilling feeling again.
He quickly drew a sword from his inventory, blocking the area where he felt cold. The old man then struck the place with his sword.
His super-instinct sensed danger and must have activated.
Duck
Their swords clashed.
Conou used the recoil to retreat.
"Even in the game, I can feel my super intuition. β
Conou thinks there's a good chance that his super-instincts won't work.
Since it's a game.
However, his super-instincts have been activated.
If it weren't for the old man in front of him, he would have felt like he would be running around with joy.
But the old man didn't even give him a chance to be happy.
"Haha. β
The old man laughed as he attacked Conou. His expression resembles that of a child playing with a toy.
Duck
Con Au combines his ultra-instincts and combat experience to stop the old man's attack. He also immediately learned about the current situation.
"It's an activity where the boss teaches you. β
As a rule, a person will accept the request of one of the instructors of the training center, and then by hitting a wooden doll about 100 times, will obtain the attached state, that is, tenacity.
However, when the boss appears, a special event is triggered at each training center.
"In the rain, it could be..."
"Damn," Conou cursed.
"Endurance (physical attack) event!"
Boss Wren (Rain) defeats players again and again and finally gains stamina!
"Damn, why?"
Why do I have to participate in endurance races!?
Probably any other event, but he has become one of the worst. He had no choice but to fur his forehead.
"Took a blow when I was still good. β
Rain approached the river and tilted his head like a gangster boss.
"I have to hold on for a while. β
Conou trusts his super-instincts and Alth itself.
Alth is truly an amazing game.
Each NPC has its own life, personality, history and family.
They're like a person.
These NPCs are completely different from the NPC among the warlords. These will only do what they are programmed to do, and all the results will be the same!
Therefore, nothing is fixed at Alth. There are only options. And countless results based on these decisions!
There must be a result, and that is that it will not be defeated by the rain.
"You stick to it, huh. β
The sword of rain did not stop.
Con Au barely dodged or stopped the rain from attacking.
"How's this?"
The more he did, the faster Rain's sword became.
Cono realized that at this rate, he wouldn't last long. Their abilities vary too much.
"I have to put an end to this. β
Conou decided to attack, not defend.
However, the rain is in line with his status as a boss and there are no vacancies. Therefore, his hyper-instinct, which leads him towards his opponent's opening, is silent.
Moreover, the sword of rain is indeed very fast.
Even if he knew in advance where the sword would come from, he could barely stop the blow of the rain.
At some point, he had reached his limit. He couldn't stop Wren's sword anymore. Eventually, he was beaten in the leg.
"Ahh β
Because it was a match, the pain wasn't great, but Conou lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Now the rain will hit him with enthusiasm. He was hit hard by all the troubles he would bring him!
However, even if he falls, he does not lose consciousness.
'Side!'
Rain gets a little careless, and Conou's ultra-instincts go to zero in his opening scene.
He's all in!
He had attacked when he fell, so he didn't have any power behind him. However, it does do come into physical contact with the rain.
thump
Kang Oh completely fell.
"Hmm. You're not bad. Rain said, looking at his side.
[You have been admitted by Rain the Lightning Swordsman.] Your fame has increased, and the rain will no longer attack you. ]
Oh!
Conou suddenly relented, promising that he would never be attacked again.
"Nothing. β
He really wanted to say, "You're a madman!", but he flinched.
It seems obvious that if he curses him now, he will only take a sword for his own trouble. Endure. Endure it.
"Oh, you're not fun at all. β
Rain quickly turned around and left, as if he had lost all interest in Conou.
[Secondary stats have been created to be unyielding.] ]
[The higher your tenacity, the better your ability to overcome your fears and the better you will be at dealing with enemies stronger than yourself.] ]
"Damn Yoshizawa!"
Once he was sure that the rain was gone, he let out the long-awaited curse.
"He just did what he wanted!"
He spat on the floor and entered the training center.
"Welcome. This is the Rain Training Center..."
"Enough. Please give me the task. β
Received the task from the instructor to resist Wu Gang (Kang Ou) hit a wooden doll 100 times and gained a tenacious sideways.
[Secondary status, toughness created.] ]
[The higher your tenacity stat, the harder it is for your abilities to drop.] ]
"You are very talented in martial arts. Do you want to be a student of our martial arts?"
That's what the piano teacher said to his parents. "Oh my, your kid is so talented!"
"No thanks!"
Cono immediately refused and left the training center.
Altan's gates were open as usual. Conou left through the city gate and entered the grassy plain.
Beginners are busy killing monsters.
Apple slimes, melon slimes, sick rats, slow-footed rabbits and other monsters...
Kang Ou approached the melon puree that was wandering nearby.
Then use his beginner sword to strike the opening indicated by the super instinct.
Morality!
The slime emitted red fragments.
In Arth, fragments of light are used instead of blood.
Obviously, the more shards, the larger the shards, the more damage the monster will take.
If there was a red light scattered as it is now, it indicates a serious hit.
Tongtong!(Means fat/fat)
The melon-colored slime glared at Conou and bounced back at him.
Tackle!
Conou moved away so as not to feel the cold and dodged the attack.
As a result, Cono took 0 damage.
Just like in real life, if he doesn't get hit, he won't get hurt in any way.
Avoid!Critical hits!Avoid! Critical hits!
By using his super instincts, Cono constantly repeats the maneuvers of dodging and attacking.
[You defeated the Melon Slime.] ]
"By targeting its weak spots, I took a heavy hit. And I can avoid the attack before it hits me!"
Ultra-intuitive.
In Alth, this skill is the best. It's also one skill he has only.
Super instinctive!If I use it well, then..."
Despite the fact that it was a working day, Jae Woo went to the dojo sword master.
"Didn't you say you couldn't come on weekdays?" said D'Obe as he looked at him.
"Teacher, please help me. β
"What?"
"Please keep in touch with me when I'm wearing an eye patch. β
Jae-woo thought he would say "Are you crazy?", but DeobΓ© just smiled and tilted his head.
"Blindfolded to fight. It's a classic. β
Blocking the view to train the senses of others is a classic training method for martial artists.
Jae Woo's goal is not to train his senses, but to complete a specific task.
"Okay, let's get started right away. β
"Yes, thank you. β
At first, Jae Woo spoke to Deaube with his eyes closed, but Deaube flinched.
Luckily, he wasn't lost by his super-intuition. He reacts naturally, moving his trained body in a super-intuitive direction.
While he gets used to fighting with one person, Jae Woo gradually joins more people into the fight.
That's a whole week.
During that time, he unwittingly fought several opponents at once.
"I think that's enough. β
Jae-woo visited Arth again.
Altan.
The capital of the Altai Empire, which once united the entire continent of Ars.
It was once called the holy city, Altaiin.
With the overthrow of the empire by the people, Altain is now the largest city on the continent of Alte. It is an independent city ruled by an elected mayor.
Although the empire no longer exists, there are still some huge structures that have been built to unify the entire continent.
This gymnasium is one of them!
It is shaped exactly like a gymnasium, but completely snow-white. If you look closely, they will also find other differences.
But it's still a target building with the same goal as the gymnasium.
Fighting matches!
The Bolshoi Fighting Competition, which starts on weekends, is a favorite sport of the citizens of Altain.
Arth's fighting matches are not a place of slaughter or slaughter, but a place to show their skills.
The famous gladiator was loved by the citizens of Altain and became a sports star.
Also, once every four years, the Grand Theater hosts the Laken Carnival, when the most powerful carnival will be decided.
When the time came, the strong and those who wanted to bear witness to the strong came here.
Of course, Conou has no interest in participating in a fight match.
There was another reason why he was going to the temple.
"Here, hehe. β
Cono reached the stairs below the gymnasium. A cold wind blew from within.
After he descended the mountain, he was touched by an arched passage.
"Are you a challenger?"
A man in a gladiator's helmet sits on a chair in the middle of the passage.
"Rakan's Pride Helmet was created by the master blacksmiths of the Altan Empire!
This helmet is powerful enough to bear the name of Rakan, the god of victory and war, and the owner of the helmet is Burkan, who is said to have never been defeated.
"Yes, great gladiators. β
Gladiator Master Burkan!
If possible, he wanted to be close to him.
"Follow me. β
Conou followed Buchan.
The flashlights that adorn the sides of the walls illuminate the passage like street lamps. And the passage goes farther and farther into the ground.
At some point, Burkan stopped.
At the end of the passage, there is a closed iron gate.
"As soon as this door is opened and entered, the battle against 100 soldiers begins. You know the rules, right?"
Fight against 100 soldiers! Fight, he has been lying in bed for two years, he has lost too much time, and now the gap between him and others is too big, and if he wants to improve himself quickly, he can only do this, no way, time is pressing.
This is what Jae Woo is seeking.
