Among the many pieces of advice Midas received during his time as a professional baseball player, this was one..
“As in all fields, there inevitably comes a time when things don't go as planned. without exception.”
There is no way in this world that flows like the heart..
He also told me how to deal with it..
“Without exception, there is only one way to deal with such a situation. Working hard and doing the best you can.”
This is advice that will rot and rot if you get stuck in a rut..
However, the driving force that drives Midas now was none other than that old advice..
‘No matter how things turn out, in the end the only things you can trust are your levels, items, and skills..’
Instead of feeling confused in the face of a future he could not easily guess, Midas focused on hunting..
[I hunted Tgar.]
[Fireball's skill rank has increased by one level..]
By constantly hunting Tgar, I gained experience and raised my skill rank..
He went further and did more..
“Lucky, block the right Tgar.!”
king!
“Gold, you left!”
“I receive orders!”
“The golem is the one in the middle!”
thud!
That was why he used his three companions to deal with as many as four Tgar at once..
According to Midas' original theory and considering Tgar's characteristics, it was an impossible situation..
Midas is already in a situation where he can kill Tgar in one go just by dealing damage alone without the help of Lucky or Gold..
All you had to do was find Tgar, position yourself at an appropriate distance, and start bombarding him with magic..
Moreover, doesn't Midas even have the eyes to distinguish between disguised Tgar??
“I kill the remaining one.”
‘From now on, I have to deal with more people than me..’
Nevertheless, admitting difficulties and inconveniences in this way was a practice in preparation for when fighting an enemy that is more powerful than oneself..
Just doing image training is completely different from experiencing it yourself, even though it is insufficient..
‘From items to abilities and skills, I have nothing to kneel against with most players, even if there is a difference in level..’
Above all, the character Midas itself was already an incredible character that could be compared to players 20 to 30 levels higher than him, regardless of his level..
No, I refuse to be compared to any player character that has ever appeared in God Wars..
‘But if it happens, I'm an asshole..’
Nevertheless, if Midas is defeated by a player of similar level, it will only be due to Midas' lack of ability..
Of course, Midas had no intention of becoming an asshole and doing nothing..
He was fully prepared and planned to face the threat that would come his way without hesitation..
“Everyone block it properly!”
king!
“Yes, master!”
In this way, Midas repeatedly whipped himself and continued the battle without rest..
[Your level has risen.]
In the end, I heard a notification.
[60Level achieved.]
Now, there is a notification that Midas said that everything is ready..
8.
60The first thing Midas did the moment he achieved a level was to switch items..
[Black Tgar's Robes]
- Grade: Unique
- Wearable level: Level 60 or higher
- A robe made from the shell of a Black Tgar. The surface is rough but very tough..
- muscular strength +17
- health +13
- intellect +47
- horsepower +33
- offense power +7
- +10 percent casting speed
- Additional options open each time you add a Black Tgar set item
!All stats when equipped with 2 set items +25
!Attack power when equipped with 3 set items +13
!Physical and magic defense +10% when equipped with 4 set items
!All damage +10% when equipped with 5 set items
Wearing the Black Tgar set item, a boss monster that appears in the Forest of Giants..
‘I bought something really expensive.’
In addition, the Black Tgar set was unusually expensive compared to the item level of 60..
‘Well, you have to upgrade your specs as much as possible to be able to survive in Tunga Kingdom..’
The reason is none other than the Kingdom of Tunga.
Players who hunt in the Giant's Forest are the strongest within the Giant's Forest, but the moment they enter Tunga Kingdom, they become the weakest..
In order to protect himself from the hyenas targeting him as the weakest, he had no choice but to upgrade his specs as much as possible, and the Black Tgar set, which could be said to be the maximum spec upgrade, was that expensive..
Also, starting from the Black Tgar set, the item options are slightly different..
Even if the items are the same, some items have a very high strength stat, and conversely, some items have a very high intelligence stat, and so on..
Naturally, even though the items were the same, the prices were different depending on the stats..
‘From now on, it's really going to cost a lot of money..’
Even this time, Midas didn't just buy the Black Tgar set for himself..
[Equip the Guardian with the Black Tgar Set..]
“Oh my god, master!”
Gold and Guardian were also given black Tgar sets..
It was the right measure to take to a guardian who would sacrifice his life at any time to protect his own..
‘That too twice.’
The right thing to do even if it makes you feel sick.
"To wear the same clothes as my master, it's just an overwhelming feeling.!”
Gold, who could not have known that fact, repeatedly expressed admiration as he looked at his new black clothes..
At the end of that admiration, I looked at Lucky and said something strange..
“As expected, the master knows what true loyalty is..”
At those words, Lucky glanced at Midas, then rubbed himself at Midas' feet and said:.
king!
He looks like he's asking for something too.
Midas said with an apologetic look on his face..
“Sorry, you can't wear it.?”
king?
Lucky, who looked disappointed and surprised, soon widened his distance from Midas and then let his tail hang..
Midas shook his head at that sight..
‘Lucky, if you match it, I'll starve to death..’
Midas shook his head like that, and the last notification was heard in his ears..
[A dragon meant only for war gives you a chance.]
[Would you like to receive a reward??]
That notification was the reason why Midas hoped to achieve level 60 so much..
“yes!"
‘Please, please, let’s just go to Legendary. Once that comes out, I will never criticize this game again, calling it a game of luck..’
The moment Midas responded to the notification with an earnest wish, 100 cards appeared..
The world that unfolded like that was plain..
In a colorless world, only a few lights were vaguely revealing their presence..
‘Fuck, then… … uh!’
At that time, Midas' eyes caught the only skill card emitting golden light..
Midas said, putting his hands together as if praying above his head..
“Please forgive me for my lack of faith.”
After confessing like that, I checked the skill card..
[recycling]
- Skill Grade: Legendary.
- Skill Effect: Realize the laws of nature and recover stamina equal to the amount of magical power consumed. Recovers magic power equal to the amount of stamina consumed..
recycling.
When Midas saw this, the smile on his lips slightly distorted..
‘What is this?’
First of all, the skill itself was something Midas had never seen before..
Even though he was Midas, it didn't mean he knew all the legendary skills..
In other words, that was the evidence..
Proof that it is not a skill that has been heard so well in God Wars until now..
If it was a really good skill, there's no way Midas wouldn't have known about it..
‘So, when you use magic, your HP replenishes, and when your HP decreases, your magic increases, right??’
In fact, it was not easy to say that the skill itself was good just by explaining it..
Of course, it wasn't completely ineffective..
‘It is for emergency escape..’
As Midas said, it was a skill that would come in handy in an emergency situation..
For example, in a state where magic power was low, wizards could not do anything even if they were attacked..
However, with this skill, magic power is restored to the extent that HP is reduced, giving an opportunity to turn things around..
Or, if your magic power was full, but you suffered a fatal attack and your HP was greatly reduced, and your life was saved, you could recover some of your HP just by continuing to use magic..
It is a skill that shines in a crisis situation..
‘Hey, if I’m going to write about something like this, I’ll just learn healing..’
Of course, it was much more economical to use healing skills to replenish stamina during that time..
Moreover, isn’t Midas a great mage??
Although not as good as priest-type healers, I was able to learn at least ordinary healing skills..
That would be more helpful for survival..
‘If it's going to come out, it's either an attack skill or something..’
This was the reason why Midas showed signs of disappointment..
As he complained, it would be better to have a unique level rather than something like this, so attack magic would be more helpful..
‘Or shield series.’
Or shield type magic.
‘Lightning Shield is a good additional option, but its defense power is a bit low. I'd rather use a mana shield because it has a lot of magic.……'
It was that moment.
‘mana shield?’
The moment the Mana Shield appeared in Midas' mind, his expression changed..
‘Wait, how does this happen??’
mana shield.
It is a skill that consumes magic power to create a shield. It is a magic skill that consumes magic power every time the shield is damaged, and is often used by wizard class players to escape a crisis..
Even if you run out of mana, the game is not over..
On the other hand, there were quite a few wizard players who didn't like it and didn't use it..
A wizard without magical power has no value, and most wizards suffered from a lack of magical energy..
Of course, that wasn't what Midas was thinking about right now..
‘If recycling is added here?’
What happens if the recycling skill overlaps with Mana Shield activated??
If damage is absorbed through the Mana Shield and HP is recovered a little bit each time magic power is consumed,?
When Midas reached this point, there was only one thing to worry about..
‘The Mana Shield skill card costs over $15,000..’
How to get money to buy skill cards?
‘You can get it right away by selling the items you previously wore at a low price, but doing so would result in too much loss.……'
After much thought, Midas came up with an answer..
‘This is not the time to waste your time. It's better to lose money than to lose 80 hours due to a game over..’
“Guys.”
Midas, who had made up his mind, spoke to Lucky and Gold..
“Let's stop here for today.”
Kiing……!
“master!”
At those words, Lucky and Gold looked at Midas with expressions and eyes full of regret, and Midas looked sorry to them and immediately pressed logout..
Soon, the images of Midas, Lucky, and Gold began to blur, and soon disappeared from the world like a mirage..
It was exactly 5 minutes later..
“Wow, fuck!”
Midas appears again.
“Rising Star Channel CEO, loyalty! Loyalty! loyalty!”
with cheers.
9.
Office of Rising Star Channel.
“We are always grateful for the support and help from Rising Star Channel.……"
There, Youngjun Park walked forward, holding a tablet PC in his hand and reading the text on the screen, as if he were practicing reading a script..
"......Of all people, I feel indescribable gratitude for gifting me this Mana Shield skill card. I won't forget to repay you for this..”
Finally, the moment he finished speaking, Park Young-jun stopped behind the seated subordinate and placed his hand on the subordinate's shoulder and said:.
“Okay, I saw it.?”
Instead of answering that question, the subordinate simply blinked with a surprised expression..
The subordinate soon came to his senses and said:.
“I never imagined that BJ Grand Mage would be this happy with the Mana Shield skill card..”
Park Young-jun, what he purchased as a gift for BJ Grand Mage was none other than the Mana Shield skill card..
There was nothing strange up to this point..
Because the Mana Shield has been recognized for its usefulness by wizard classes..
It was a gift that everyone would be grateful for..
The problem, as the subordinate said, was the reaction to it..
BJ Grand Mage, a man of great wealth, sent a long thank you via email for rescuing me just one skill card..
This means that the gift that Park Young-jun gave to BJ Grand Mage really pierced his heart..
“A top hitter predicts what the pitcher is going to throw and goes for it..”
As he spoke, Park Young-jun tapped my head with the tip of his finger and said,.
“And the best way to do that is to pass the ball over the fence..”
After finishing speaking, Park Young-jun returned to his seat and continued speaking while sitting on a chair..
“Only those who think and prepare for the next time after hitting a home run like that can make it to the Hall of Fame..”
Park Young-jun's eyes were already looking into the distance as he spoke..
A subordinate asked him a question.
“Next time?”
“Why were you happy??”
“yes?”
“Why was BJ Grand Mage happy with a skill card that was only worth the price of his potion? If you need it, you can just buy it yourself.?”
“That's right……"
The subordinate who was pondering the answer soon shook his head..
Park Young-jun gave the answer to that look..
“There is a high possibility that BJ Grand Mage is already in a position where he cannot join hands with the top 10 guilds or similar forces, let alone think about it. In any case, I would have abandoned the option of asking for help from the Explorer's Guild and taking refuge. He really meant to fight alone.”
“ah……"
“In that situation, even though we were lacking, he gave us a shield to help us fight. Then how would you feel??”
“I'd appreciate it..”
The moment the answer came out of his subordinate's mouth, Youngjun Park stopped talking about it..
As I said before, he was already looking at the next one..
“A live request will come soon. It's a live request for BJ Grand Mage's Tunga Kingdom debut..”
10.
The Tunga Kingdom consisted of five castles..
North, South, East and West, four castles and a central castle located in the center..
The first place players encounter after proving their qualifications in the city of Wei and crossing through warp magic was the West Castle..
aka West Castle.
West Castle was different in many ways compared to the city above..
The 30-meter high wall that completely surrounds the castle and the square-shaped buildings within it were full of strength rather than splendor..
But what was most different was the atmosphere of the players..
“Arrived.”
“This is West Castle.”
Unlike the city of Wiga, which was filled with the cheers of players experiencing warp for the first time, there was no cheering in West Castle..
“Don't relax. Because I don't know when I'll get hit.”
“Let's get together and move.”
Instead, it's just full of tension and caution..
Moreover, it was not a vague worry..
Many of the players experienced Game Over for the first time through PK here at West Castle..
It was a feeling of tension and caution created through already accumulated results and history..
It means that leisure and cheering are not tolerated..
[Arrived at Tunga Kingdom.]
A player appeared above that space..
With that fact, the vigilance and tension around me started to become more intense once again..
It was then.
A wolf and an armed Lizard Warrior appeared behind the player..
‘omg!’
‘no way?’
Those who saw it looked at the player who appeared in surprise..
“BJ Great Master Sada.”
“he came.”
The moment the typhoon predicted to arrive at West Castle appears.
‘How will it come out??’
‘Do you want to take control from the beginning??’
‘They say they're preparing for war, so it's probably not a good mood..’
It was not just a typhoon, but a typhoon filled with war clouds..
With the appearance of the typhoon, indescribable tension and caution began to spread throughout West Castle..
Through the tension, Midas raised his head, checked his surroundings, and then looked at one of the players who was looking at him blatantly. He then smiled and waved his hand in his direction..
come!
The expression of the player who was singled out for such a gesture hardened..
The atmosphere around us also hardened..
‘There are guard NPCs here, so you want to do PK? crazy!’
‘You're saying you won't even tolerate looking at me..’
‘Looks like they've been preparing for a real war..’
Some people turned their heads to see BJ Grand Mage's determination not to tolerate anyone targeting him or even glaring at him..
Of course, the player who was singled out was frozen in place..
‘Why the fuck did I just watch?……'
To the point where he felt a sense of resentment over the fact that he would become a sacrifice for the BJ Great Mage..
Of course, there was no way I would lose my footing..
Midas smiled brightly at him and said,.
“Come, we'll take as many selfies as you want..”
