Closed Beta I Played Alone

Chapter 62

62 episodes. The opportunity came sooner than expected (2).

Gil-Young Lee, an executive of Seongchang and the leader of the second team out of a total of five boss monster raid teams operated by Seongchang, was a little worried.

Here he is, as he usually does, when he hunts alone, threatening to chase him away.

Of course, if it was Lee Gil-young's original personality, it was natural to kick him out as always.

However, in a recent executive meeting, it was mentioned that Sungchang must somehow increase his size in order to survive among large corporations. Because I promised to do it, this time

Gil-young had no choice but to hesitate.

Hunting against long-rooted tree monsters in this abandoned tree field is in itself a very clear proof that you are strong.

Especially when hunting alone.

And I thought that the fact that Gil-Young Lee was alone could be a treasure for not joining the guild.

So, having organized his thoughts, Gil-Young Lee approached the user who hunted alone with a smile on his lips and opened his mouth.

"Hello. My name is Gil-Young Lee, who is the captain of the second team among the boss monster raid team of the Sungchang Guild. Sungchang is… you know?”

Of course, the light has faded with the advancement of large corporations with great names, but Seongchang is a mid-level guild with its own reputation.

So, Gil-Young Lee opened up a conversation by referring to the Sungchang Guild.

“Of course I do.”

And fortunately, when the desired answer came out of the other person's mouth, Gil-Young Lee quickly opened his mouth again with a smile.

"haha. I'm glad you know the spear. By the way, I don’t know if you know, but soon, the boss monster here, a long-rooted old tree, will appear here.”

“Oh, is that so?”

"Yes. So can you give up a seat for a while until we get the boss monster? It won't take long. And since you were taking the first place, if you would like to proceed with the boss monster raid with us, we will accept it as our party. of course active

Depending on your wealth, we will guarantee you a certain amount of ownership of the items dropped by the boss.”

Gil-Young Lee, he was confident.

He has the power of the second raid team he is captaining.

So he decided to offer him a signing after showing his overwhelming power by pulling Iza into the party.

Moreover, Gil-Young Lee wanted to check the level of interest with his own eyes.

That way, he can decide what kind of treatment he should treat later.

If he's not stronger than he thinks, he'll just have to give him death in return for his troublesome hard work.

Anyway, Gil-young Lee hoped inwardly.

He replied that he would do a boss monster raid together.

And Gil-Young Lee received it.

He answered that he wanted to do the boss monster raid.

But not together.

So, Gil-Young Lee asked again, wondering if he heard something wrong.

"I beg your pardon?"

“I’m going to do a boss monster raid. by myself Didn't I just tell you before? I was getting a seat first. So the priority is mine, isn't it?"

“……”

Without realizing it, Gil-young Lee opened his mouth wide and only blinked his eyes.

Because he wasn't wrong.

So he almost uttered, 'Are you crazy?'

Whether he's crazy or not, it's clear that he's strong enough to hunt alone in the deserted fields here.

Of course the experience is very low.

Anyway, Gil-young Lee cleared up his embarrassment and opened his mouth.

"Hahaha. All right. We'll be waiting behind you. If there is any danger, I am ready to put it in immediately. So, don’t worry and proceed with the Boss Monster Raid.”

Boss monster raid alone?

impossible.

never.

But Gil-Young Lee didn't think this was bad either.

Scenarios that intervene in dangerous situations and save lives are always effective scenarios.

And Gil-Young Lee also thought of other scenarios.

A scenario where if your skills are really bad, you leave the boss monster to die as it is.

So Gil-Young Lee smiled and stepped back.I'm thinking of watching a funny comedy.

And it was the same for the 2nd boss monster raid team members of Sungchang.

‘Check item.’

Looking back at Lee Gil-young, the leader of Seongchang's No. 2 raid team, he went to check the items she received from her father and brother.

[+3 Ring imbued with the energy of the Holy Ice (Legendary)

- Higher than any other mountain, the sacred Ron-Amer mountain that no one allowed to step on.

It is a ring specially crafted by the legendary blacksmith, Crack, from fragments that accidentally fell from the snow on the sacred Mount Ron-Amer.

-It consists of a ring, earrings, and necklace, and the more you wear it as a set, the more effects you get.

-When wearing 2 sets: Increases damage to boss monsters by 3%, reduces damage received from boss monsters by 3%.

When wearing 3 sets: Increases damage to boss monsters by 7%, reduces damage received from boss monsters by 7%.

- No wear restrictions.

-effect.

: Damage of all ice-type skills (2%) -> 3% increase.

: On snow and ice terrain, combat power (2%) -> 3% increase. (Arbitrarily created terrain of snow and ice, such as an ice field, is also applied. When fighting on snow and ice terrain, the above options are applied overlappingly.)

: Intellect increased by 250.

-Physical Defense: (100) -> 150 increase, Magic Defense: (200) -> 300 increase.

-Durability: 825000/825000]

[+1] Earrings imbued with the energy of the sacred ice cap (Legendary)

- Higher than any other mountain, the sacred Ron-Amer mountain that no one allowed to step on.

：

- No wear restrictions.

-effect.

: Damage of all Ice-type skills (2%) -> Increases by 2.2%.

: On snow and ice terrain, combat power (2%) -> 2.2% increase. (This also applies to arbitrarily created snow and ice lands, such as ice fields.)

: Intellect increased by 250.

-Physical Defense: (100) -> 110 increase, Magic Defense: (200) -> 220 increase.

-Durability: 710000/710000]

[+1 A necklace imbued with the energy of the sacred ice cap (Legendary)

：

A set item called a ring, earrings, and necklace imbued with the sacred snow from my father and brother.

Except for the set options related to the boss monster, which I thought was outrageous, the options I had were short.

When enhanced to exactly 0, all ice skill damage is increased by 2% and combat power is increased by 2% on snow and ice terrain.

And 250 Intellect.

In short, it cannot be said that it is high.

It's only 2%.

Even if you wear it all as a set, it's 6%.

Of course, except in the case of me, if you somehow find accessory reinforcement stones and make 3 reinforcements, which are safety reinforcements, there are three 3% each, so a total of 9%.

And for me, an increase of 9% was enough.

Because the base is different.

Moreover, in recent years, the hunting method that basically lays out an ice field.

That is, the attack power is increased to 18%.

Of course, there is a disadvantage that the frequency of use of ice blasting decreases as much, but that was not a big problem.

An 18% increase in attack power is enough to fill the void of ice blasting.

Moreover, if the situation is urgent, it is sufficient to use the ice prison to detonate the ice.

Anyway, in my mind, I wanted to make all 3 enhancements each, but the problem is the legendary level.

Up until upgrade 1, only Golden Ring was required, but it took 31 hours of cooldown to go from upgrade 1 to 2.

A day and about half a day.

So, first of all, I made 3 enhancements to the ring.

And before attempting to strengthen the +1 Ice Emperor's Guardian Sword, I was thinking of making 3 enhancements for the Brave Fighter's Bracelet, which is another legendary item, including earrings and necklaces.

plan of course.

Rather than the Ice Emperor's guardian sword, which cannot be used for a while anyway, I wanted to make this ring, earrings, and necklace with the energy of the sacred ice cap into 4 and 5, rather than 3, which is a safety enhancement.

In general, the higher the enhancement level, the greater the amount of options that increase.

So, there was a good chance that if you succeeded in strengthening 4, damage and combat power would increase by 1% instead of 0.3% or 0.4%.

But all of this is a situation that only time can solve.

So I hunted hard.

Just because you're impatient doesn't mean the cooldown will decrease faster.

And the holy spear and the boss monster faced with that situation.

I thought that was enough for now.

By wearing the set of 3, in addition to a 7% reduction in damage dealt and received damage to boss monsters, exactly ice-type skill damage is increased by 7.4%, and combat power is increased by 7.4% when fighting on snow and ice.

And all of this is applied redundantly.

Kuooooooooo!

Anyway, he showed up at the moment when he was determined to fight in his own way.

A tree so huge that I can understand why the leader of Seongchang's raid team No. 2, Lee Gil-young, used the term "old tree".

However.

“Ice Field! And superimposed thin ice!”

Passionate!

Even though I have a lot of self-confidence right now, I was too much to be scared by my size.

And, decisively, I have no intention of unconditionally defeating the boss monster in a one-on-one basis.

Boss monsters aren't boss monsters for nothing.

However, to some extent alone, it is about fighting a boss monster on an equal footing.

That look was enough.

Since that was impossible in the first place, I organized a boss monster raid team and moved it.

Like a spear of 50 people in the back.

The seat where the 2nd boss monster raid team is located in the castle spear in the back.

When the long-rooted old tree appeared, Captain Lee Gil-young said so much that only 40 people around him could hear it.

I'm standing in front of the boss monster, but I still can't hear him as a recruiting candidate.

“Everyone get ready. If the author's skills are better than expected, he will rush to protect him, and if he dies in an instant, the target is a long-rooted old tree."

"Yes."

"all right. But do you really need to do this? If you are strong, it is essential to accompany experience. Isn't it literally foolish to deal with boss monsters alone, regardless of the strong and the weak?”

"Yes."

At Lee Gil-young's words, the guild members belonging to the No. 2 raid team spoke one word at a time.

of course you're right.

But as Gil-Young Lee, he had no choice but to do this.

No matter how much he washed his eyes, he couldn't find a strong man, because Ham Ji-sang, the leader of his rival Raid Team 3, had already brought several people to the spear like a sweet potato stalk.

Of course, there is also a voice saying that the leader of the raid teams 2 and 3 should be changed.

So, Gil-young Lee opened his mouth with a bitter smile.

The current situation in which you have to expect crazy people as your subordinates say is really scary.

"done. At most, 1-2 minutes. waiting."

And the battle soon unfolded.

Gil-Young Lee, however, looked ahead, shining her eyes in anticipation.

“Ice Field! And superimposed thin ice!”

Passionate!

Of course, being the leader of a single boss monster raid team is strong as well, but it was important to look at the situation as a whole and have a good eye.

He was also important for leadership.

When you catch a boss monster, things don't always go as expected.

As much as that, Gil-Young Lee was confident that he was not behind anyone in his experience.It's not for nothing that I'm the leader of the second boss monster raid team of Seongchang.

So it seemed

The ice field, which had to be destroyed in an instant by the long-rooted old tree, endures.

And the trunk of the long-rooted old tree, which boasts tremendous defensive power, is clearly scratched by the low-level magic Ice Ball and Ice Bolt.

Of course, unlike normal monsters whose only means of attack are roots, the old tree wields the branches attached to the body for attack.

puck!

The figure of an ice-type wizard swept backwards without being able to respond to the attack unfolded before his eyes.

Seeing that, Gil-Young Lee tried to run right away.

After ordering heels from healers.

Because the ice field has not already been broken by the attack of the old tree, and just by making a large scar on the trunk and branches with low-level magic, it has proven enough that it is not inferior to just one attack.

Moreover, it was natural for him to suffer fatal damage from that one shot as an ice-type magician.

However.

"uh?"

"Huh?"

“Can you hold on to that…? A wizard?”

Not only Gil-Young Lee, but everyone here is a member of the Boss Monster Raid team.

Having dealt with that many boss monsters, I could tell at a glance that the appearance in front of me was not normal.

Moreover, it wasn't even the first time or two I've encountered a long-rooted old tree.

And there were more scenes that made everyone unable to keep their mouths shut.

puck! puck! puck!

“Ice Spear. Multiple Ice Arrows. And an ice prison!”

A continuous attack using the branches of the boss monster, a long-rooted old tree.

And an ice-type wizard who endures the attack and responds equally.

“……”

Boss Monster Long Rooted Old Tree.

First of all, the attack method was originally an attack using roots, like the long-rooted tree, which is a monster that appears here.

But with a huge root that boasts enormous thickness and strength.

In addition, it was possible to attack using the branches attached to the huge trunk, which is not possible with normal long-rooted tree monsters.

In other words, the long-rooted old tree was a boss monster that was quite difficult to attack in both the ground and the sky.

The items that are given there are also great.

That's why other giant guilds greedy for boss monsters almost threw away long-rooted old trees.

The reason why Seongchang sent the 2nd raid team under special management instead of the 3rd, 4th, or 5th raid team was because the long-rooted old tree was so strong.

However, all 50 members of the 2nd raid team, including Gil-Young Lee, who is well-known for her experience and abilities, were opening their mouths without realizing it.

Clearly still beneath the ground, giant roots 'boom! thud! thud! The ice field did not break even when it made a sound close to the roar of thump!', and there are so many branches attached to the body that it cannot avoid or defend against them all.

that.

Without the help of a healer or a supporter, it was also an ice-type wizard.

Furthermore.

Woo Ji Jik! Woo Ji Jik! thud!

Everyone had eyes and ears, so they had no choice but to see and hear.

The large branches on the trunk of the long-rooted old tree were broken by ice-based attacks as they were.

In other words, it is the long-rooted old tree, which is the boss monster, that is suffering from the loss.

That's because the Ice-type wizard did not step back and took all the attacks.

No apparent damage.

“Can I... can you pinch my cheek?”

"me too..."

In that way, Gil-young Lee and 50 other people just stared blankly in front.
