Chapter 13 Field Control

One.

Field control is actually not a new word.

It’s a word that has already been famous since the game, and there can be no field control in this world that is likened to a game-like world.

But the reason it wasn’t a big issue was simple.

Because there was no need to control the field.

When controlling the field, there must be some benefit.

It’s because you can’t stand at the entrance of the hunting ground like a game and kill all the users who enter.

In addition, it is not easy to control the field of reality like a game.

The field itself is very wide, and unless it is a field with only one entrance, the required manpower doubles according to the number of entrances.

Even if you block all the incoming users, the next problem is.

What is it that you gain more than others by monopolizing the field you have invested so much manpower and effort?

At best, it was a pleasant hunt.

no, it’s not even comfortable.

If you hunt hard, there are users who come in without knowing what is going on inside the field, and if you chase them out, it will be a waste of time and manpower.

Even the user association does not strongly sanction guild-level field control, but if certain damage continues one after another, it gives a warning or directly puts a bounty.

In the end, field control is just the romance of bad guys.

That didn’t mean it wasn’t there.

Because there was a control that could take advantage of it efficiently.

Field boss control right there.

There was often talk in the community, and most of the popular field bosses were actually guilds that preoccupied and occupied positions when they were respawned.

There was also the [Tidal Flat Crab] that Yoo Ju-yeon experienced.

Field control, which was applied only in certain situations, appeared for the first time.

“and. they’re crazy Just controlling the field itself? What are you going to do with the back?”

“I’m just going to raise the level and see.”

“no. Are you going to suffer like this?”

“Then what do you do? Do you come to level up and go to war? It’s a war guild. It could be that they’re deliberately arguing about it.”

The War Guild seemed quite famous.

“War? It’s a guild that is subtly involved in the news of PK-related accidents. The level of the guild members is high, and there are many classes with high grades. ah. I didn’t expect to control the field.”

Nearly dozens of players stomped their feet at the entrance.

If someone entered ahead of them, they were ready to follow, but there was no user who took the lead.

However, it seemed that he had no intention of moving to another field.

“that’s interesting.”

“At 15% EXP, it’s worth controlling. Because it has the drop rate and all stats.”

The reward for taking the risk has been added.

It’s not just a day or two, it’s a reward that can be obtained for as long as three months.

It was worth a gamble.

“how will we do it?”

There’s nothing you can’t do to get in.

The users guarding the entrance seem to be able to break through if Kim Sang-wook holds a shield and fires magic from behind.

But if that happens, it’s a real war with the guild.

It means that the feeling itself is different from users who are simply entangled and chasing after them.

“Will war with the guild make anything different? You’re already at war with Raider anyway, aren’t you?”

As I thought about it, I wondered if there was something different.

If you see traces of Yoo Ju-yeon on the radar, they send guild members to kill you.

Having a fight with a guild that is controlling the field doesn’t mean the end of the war.

“Either one or two doesn’t seem to matter much.”

“… … You’re really not crazy either.”

Hyeji Kim clicked her tongue.

Yoo Joo-yeon was also a bit strange.

“I’m not normally this confident person.”

He is a person who tries to avoid dangerous and troublesome things in everything.

Even on the way to a part-time job at a convenience store, if I see something bothering me, I go back.

However, if they get tangled up in it, they can die, or can they respond so casually to a problem that could kill them?

It’s never dull or anything like that.

how to say

this feeling.

“Do you feel like you can just win them all?”

Maybe it’s because the fraudulent nature of EX-class abilities is gradually being revealed.

It wasn’t too scary.

“Are you avoiding poop because it’s dirty? I avoid it because I am afraid.”

Kim Hye-ji made a decision.

It was a judgment that there was no need to waste time bumping into each other.

“Let’s go somewhere else. Not all fields are like this.”

A crowded field anyway and a field under control.

If you have to face one of the two, it’s better to pick out a monster that’s hard to see than to fight the user.

I walked through the crowd of people.

* * *

Looking at the community on the way back, field control wasn’t just like that here.

“There are quite a few guilds trying to control the field.”

“Upper guilds are worth controlling.”

Kim Sang-wook also helped.

Yoo Joo-yeon didn’t know much about the top guilds, but honestly, if it was their position, there seemed to be no reason not to control the field.

“I think it would be better to simply kick out the users and hunt comfortably rather than in a field where it takes longer to find monsters.”

Rather than finding greater gains by controlling it, the efficiency of hunting drops drastically when it is not controlled.

Besides, if you have grown enough to increase your strength, and if you can push out dozens of users who come individually, as a group, you don’t have to fight with them to see who attacks first when the monsters are spawned.

“Most of the D-level, C-level and higher fields show a lot of control texts. It’s not easy to control low-level fields.”

Besides, the top guilds were smart.

Most of them are high-level, so I controlled mainly high-level fields with relatively few heads.

Low-level users wouldn’t be interested because there was no damage to them, and users who complained about it could just be ignored anyway.

It was difficult to see that several guilds moving as if they had waited were simply sudden actions of a few guilds.

“Maybe collusion.”

Yoo Joo-yeon was amazed.

Things you only see in games finally appear in real life.

Although each guild competes with each other, they won’t mind joining hands when it comes to interests.

You don’t even have to communicate much.

As long as some guilds inform each other that I will control this place, there is no need to reveal it to each other.

Even the field itself is enough for each guild to control.

“It’s less risky because not all fields are controlled.”

Above all, users who were kicked out of control were not unable to hunt at all.

Right now, Yoo Joo-yeon’s party also avoided the seat instead of choosing friction, thinking that it was necessary to go somewhere other than here.

In fact, if you look, you will find fields that are not controlled.

The only problem is that when all individual users gather, more people gather than at the amusement park on holidays.

“If I make a mistake, I will be hunting for three months?”

A field control system is simply not a problem to be seen and tolerated in the short term.

If this is settled as if it were natural, even after the [resistance buff] ends, many users will feel uncomfortable hunting without even entering the controlled field.

“Someone has to step in.”

The answer is simple.

A hero who will fight against the cartel of those giant guilds needs to come out.

Yoo Joo-yeon said firmly.

“Someone will.”

“… … It’s a very modern word, so it’s selfish.”

“There is no need for us to go around dangerously while attracting attention, right?”

“That’s right.”

“I have to hunt.”

“I have to hunt.”

“You don’t want to play in a field that is half water and half meat, right?”

“I hate that.”

“Then it’s one of two ways.”

Hunting in a field full of users is difficult to find monsters in the first place, so it doesn’t seem like they’re hunting, and it’s very dangerous considering Yoo Ju-yeon and Kim Hye-ji’s skills.

Even if unintentionally, passers-by could get hurt.

Even if you go to the field on purpose, you should avoid it as much as a party that only goes to places where people are rare.

“Hunting users instead of monsters, or going to the controlled field and hunting.”

Hunting a single user does not give as much experience as a monster.

“You say you don’t want to go out?”

“Why come? Why? We will only hunt quietly.”

Yoo Joo-yeon had already thought of a method.

It was a pretty good method in my opinion.

“Let’s pick one of the weakest guilds out of the C-class field control guilds.”

“… … oh?”

“Anyway, there is a fuss about being called a Pico-Pass, but if you put on a robe and go in, won’t it come out on its own if you scare it?”

“Are you okay?”

Hearing the solution, Kim Hye-ji clapped.

Obsessed with the word field control, but in fact, the goal of controlling guilds is to hunt comfortably.

It means that there is no reason to have to fight to the end without a single entrant.

And the users of the guild probably don’t want to die either.

“If you look closely at Shobu, you can hunt comfortably.”

“that’s right. I’ll look for it right away.”

Kim Hye-ji hurriedly searched the community.

It was not difficult to find the guild under control for each field.

It was because the users who were enraged by the unprecedented situation of field control were quickly sharing that information as well, when the fields where the [Resistance buff] effect was already being applied were mapped and shared.

I soon found my target.

“uh! Let’s go here. brother. Turn the car around!”

The first priority condition was a guild that could communicate.

The second place is a field where users are unlikely to step.

In order to do that, it is good if the field boss is not spawned.

The environment in the field also plays a part.

If camping is difficult, I can’t hunt for a long time, so I usually find another place.

It also means that a guild that is controlling through bad conditions lacks the power to control fields under good conditions.

“and. Seeing that they are saying that they will control the field here too, it seems that the resistance buff is good.”

“Is this a guild you know?”

Looking at the name of the guild and seeing Kim Hye-ji with a smile on her lips, I became curious.

“know. These are naughty kids. I got into a fight a few times while hunting with my brother, but he ran away after getting hit by me a few times. Did you follow him around and harass him for a couple of weeks? I didn’t see it after one person was admitted to the hospital with serious injuries.”

“… … .”

What you say with a smile is scarier.

“But why did you get into a fight?”

Kim Sang-wook and Kim Hye-ji are not people who can get into trouble with others.

“When I usually hunt, I take off my hood because it’s frustrating, but when he saw me, he said let’s do it once after hunting? My brother hit me a few times with my shield, and he bothered following me around.”

“There are so many crazy people.”

“There are a lot of users who really think that he might be a kid with little socialization.”

Even in a game where anonymity is guaranteed, people like that would be rare.

It was amazing.

And I was curious.

How would those guys who live with that level of confidence deal with intruders who entered the field under their control?
