BJ Grand Mage-Episode 97
97fury.
1.
There were three main sources of income for professional players in God Wars:.
One is income based on the number of viewers or video views..
Another is paid sponsorship from viewers.
The rest is advertising revenue.
Among these, the proportion of advertising revenue was growing exponentially over time..
The reason was simple.
“Boss, you've been glued to the phone these days.?”
“What should I do? These days, any company's marketing department is pouring money into God Wars advertisements..”
The era has become the era of God Wars..
In that era, the enormous advertising market for all kinds of sports, including soccer, baseball, and golf, as well as the entertainment, music, and movie industries, naturally had no choice but to flock to God Wars..
“Still, it's not possible for just anyone to rush in like this.?”
“Yes, it is possible because he is a BJ master..”
In such a situation, it is natural that advertisers are on fire with the appearance of a blue chip called BJ Great Mage..
Park Young-jun smiled bitterly at the words of his subordinate..
“So I tried to get ads as late as possible..”
“yes?”
The subordinate tilted his head at Park Young-jun’s next words..
Receiving advertisements is a symbol of a star player, but putting it off?
“Right? A BJ master is not a person who is obsessed with advertising costs because he or she is in dire need of money. If you ask a question like “Would you like to buy a Mercedes Benz,” you are a person who thinks of stocks, not cars. He doesn't need to rush to set up an ad. Then, if he holds out until the end, his price will naturally rise..”
“Oh, I see..”
However, the subordinates had no choice but to be convinced by Park Young-jun's continued explanation..
At the same time, a new question arose..
“Then why am I getting ads now??”
According to what Park Young-jun said, wouldn’t it be okay to move a little later??
Youngjun Park answered that question..
“The value of BJ Grand Mage's name has grown much faster than I expected..”
“ah."
All subordinates nodded at the irrefutable answer, and Park Young-jun smiled at that sight..
Wow!
Park Young-jun's smartphone rang once again, and Park Young-jun chuckled at that fact..
“Okay, now let’s prepare for the showcase. There are 3 hours left until the time announced by the BJ master.?”
“yes."
“Then go as planned. First, upload the Biltgar video and announce the live schedule in advance..”
After hearing those words, a subordinate asked a question..
“What should the live broadcast title be??”
“Since I'm going light anyway... … Post it as ‘warm up’.”
2.
- A video was uploaded to the Live Star channel..
- This is a Biltgar Raid video.!
- Ah, I finally see this..
The public's reaction to BJ Grand Mage's new video posted on the Rising Star channel was quite hot..
However, compared to the value of BJ Grand Mage's name, the heat was not satisfactory..
- Isn’t it too late to release this video??
- Please upload the Catch Me If You Can Show instead of this one.!
- Show me how to catch Abbat.!
No matter how bright a lamp is, it gets drowned out in the presence of other flames that are already burning hotly..
After the Biltgar Raid, the hotter issues created by BJ Grand Mage actually blocked the enthusiasm for the Biltgar Raid..
It's no wonder there are complaints.
Rising Star Channel responded to the complaints of BJ Grand Mage fans..
- uh? A live broadcast notice has appeared on the Live Star channel! The hunting live will be broadcast 20 minutes after the video is released.!
b who?
ㄴ Is there any player worth posting live announcements on the Rising Star channel??
No way?
ㄴ Yes, only BJ Lucky!
They said they would soothe their regrets through a live broadcast 20 minutes after this video was released..
Those who found out about this started to spread the word by claiming to be trumpeters..
The same was true for the capsule room..
“BJ Grand Mage live announced!”
Lee Hyuk-ju quickly informed everyone who came out of the capsule, and everyone was interested in that fact..
“live? hunt?”
“I can see it this time.”
In such a situation, Lee Hyuk-ju said after checking the people around him one by one:.
“Ah, Hyunwoo, it must be a shame..”
“Why Hyunwoo?”
“You can't see this live, right? Oh, just wait for 30 more minutes. These days, people are really into gaming..”
Lee Hyuk-ju's next words left the audience with a faint smile..
“When I see Hyunwoo, my stomach hurts.?”
“Still, Hyeok-ju takes care of Hyun-woo just because he drank a coke..”
It was then.
“So what is the live title??”
“Warm up.”
“warm up?”
Everyone relaxed after the explanation that followed..
“Just looking at it, it's just an event-style live performance. Well, the Biltgar Raid video was too late.."
“I heard that it recently appeared in the Stone Tree Forest, so I'll show you how to kill a small golem..”
“Still, I'm curious. I'm not just going to catch it normally.?”
A title that doesn't give anyone anything to look forward to..
Lee Hyuk-ju said about that fact.
“This is a rumor I heard through a special route, and there is talk of something big being prepared..”
Of course, no one believed Lee Hyuk-ju’s words..
“Again, the snout twitches again.”
“Hyeokju, anyone who sees that guy will think that he is a guy who gets beaten up by the BJ master..”
at least for now.
3.
- Administrator: There is 1 minute left until the reveal. Please play well as usual.
Midas, who sees the administrator's chat above the chat window, has marked the chat window as hidden in the settings window..
‘1minute.’
Then, I set the internal timer for 1 minute and closed my eyes..
‘I feel a tingling sensation inside my stomach..’
Then, even though it was a game, I felt a thrill inside my body as if I was on the mound of a real game..
That was about it..
The meaning Midas gives to today’s broadcast and the tension felt through that meaning is.
‘Yes, this is the stage where fate is decided..’
That's because today's stage was not a stage where Midas' own fate was at stake..
To be honest, the stages Midas has faced so far have only had his own fate at stake..
Even if he fails, only Midas is ruined, and the others do not suffer any losses due to the failure..
‘Because it’s not just my fate that’s at stake.’
However, this place was a showcase created by the CEO of Rising Star Channel..
However, if the correct result is not obtained here?
In that case, the Rising Star Channel, which worked hard to create this position, is also taking a risk..
What was lost like that was not something that could be easily recovered..
‘How much money do you have?.’
Moreover, there is no way that the person behind this game called God Wars does not know the size of advertising revenue..
Midas knew that, regardless of the risks, the merits of this showcase were enormous..
‘After winning big here, I use that money.……'
He had already made an investment plan in case he had money..
‘Purchase Tunga's Staff and receive Triple Casting, a special option for Wiga's White Staff..’
Tunga's Staff, an item exclusive to level 89 Legendary Wizards.
‘12ten thousand dollars.’
The price is beyond common sense, $120,000.!
‘There's nothing you can't live without if you get the right advertising fees..’
That was the reason Midas closed the chat window earlier..
In order to pour all of your senses, concentration, and mental power solely into battle..
For a more perfect hunting.
In that state, Midas opened his eyes..
king!
“Master, we are ready.!”
Then, as if they had been waiting, Lucky and Gold revealed their loyalty..
Midas' eyes turned to the question mark above their heads..
[Lucky]
![guv]
!Evolves when hunting boss monsters with a higher level than you.
!Strengthen abilities and acquire new skills when evolving
[gold]
![Suuijin Bae]
!Loyalty increases to level 6 when protecting the owner against a boss monster of a higher level than oneself.
!When loyalty rises to level 6, abilities are strengthened and combat abilities are improved.
!More intimate conversations are possible when loyalty level rises to level 6.
!New skills can be acquired when loyalty level rises to level 6.
Midas, who checked the evolution quest of the two, confirmed what he had in his hand..
[Blue Stone Golem Summoning Stone ]
- This is a summoning stone that can summon the hidden boss monster Blue Stone Golem. Can only be used in Stone Tree Forest.
That was it..
‘1It's a person.’
The moment he checked it, Midas' body clock told him that one minute had passed, and at that fact, Midas erased all the complexities and incidental elements in his mind..
I screamed with my mind filled with only one scenario I had prepared to hunt a blue stone golem that I had never seen before..
“Hello, this is BJ Grand Mage. We will start live broadcasting from now on..”
With that cry, Midas threw the blue stone he was holding onto the ground..
Then I heard a notification.
[Blue Stone Golem Summoning Stone is activated.]
[Blue Stone Golem appears.]
With that notification, the blue stone thrown by Midas stopped right in the air..
Kukuku!
Then, with a harsh roar, the stone trees were uprooted and began to be sucked toward the blue stone..
About a hundred stone trees were crushed into small pieces and bunched together, and the lumps began to take shape..
Eventually, a golem with a gigantic height of 10 meters and an incomparable figure appeared..
An amazing sight just to see.
thud!
In that amazing scene, the moment the golem struck the ground with its two long arms and the rock-like fists at the ends, the golem's entire body began to glow blue..
[Achieved the Blue Stone Golem Witness title..]
The moment the Blue Stone Golem first appears in God Wars..
At that moment Midas shouted.
“From now on, we will start the Blue Stone Golem Raid.!”

“1It's a minute ago!”
At the shout that came from the live broadcast room, all employees began to busily check their roles..
The same was true for Park Young-jun..
He spoke into a microphone to a separate chat room with advertisers..
“1 minute before live. Everyone, please prepare and ask questions if you don’t know anything..”
The words immediately turned into text messages and filled the chat window, and then naturally a response came out..
- When is the boss monster raid schedule??
- What are your future plans??
- Are there any plans for collaboration with other guilds or players??
A fairly systematic question was asked, and Park Young-jun smiled and said,.
“Today I'm just giving you a quick taste. So, there is no need to give a definite answer today. If you're going to put an ad in the future, just prepare how you want to put it..”
Just taste it first..
Those words turned into text and filled the chat window, and Park Young-jun smiled after seeing it..
‘I have no intention of signing a major contract here anyway..’
Park Young-jun, of course, had no intention of signing a long-term contract at a low price early on with a card that had the potential to grow even bigger in the future..
‘Here it's gun by gun, you just get a few by the number..’
What we are targeting today is single contracts, not long-term contracts..
‘And that’s only at the major level.’
Even if the amount was large, the intention was to boldly cut off contracts from non-major companies..
“Live begins!”
At that moment, the live broadcast began, and Park Young-jun turned his attention to the live broadcast screen rather than the chat window..
Then, a close-up of the BJ master's face appeared, and he immediately greeted the viewers..
Park Young-jun smiled and said in response to that greeting..
“To be clear, BJ Grand Mage does not receive advertising for money. I hope you take into account that I barely managed to persuade you to make this position..”
There were several responses in the chat window to the words I entered in the meantime..
But no one paid attention to the answer..
- From now on, we will start the Blue Stone Golem Raid.!
At that moment, all officials from the Rising Star Channel live broadcast team stopped..
"uh?"
Everyone just stared at the screen with the same blank expression..
Their time stopped for a whopping 10 seconds..
At that moment, a chat came up on the chat window that Youngjun Park was viewing..
- This is a warm-up? really?
5.
stone tree forest.
“uh? What is that?”
“It's a blue golem.!”
Everyone looked surprised at the 10 meter tall blue golem that appeared there..
It hardened as it was built..
I couldn't help it.
‘What on earth is that??’
‘Is it a bug??’
It would be strange if normal thinking were possible in front of the Blue Stone Golem, which was revealed for the first time since the God Wars service..
In such a situation, the only one who could move properly was Midas..
‘First, open the distance.’
Midas, he quickly gained distance from the bluestone golem..
It was a smart move.
As a wizard, his specialty is long-distance attacks, there is no need to stick to close-range attacks from the beginning..
Moreover, distance equals time..
The longer the distance, the longer the time to think, and Midas used the time gained by increasing the distance to prepare his strategy..
[Blue Stone Golem (Lv99)]
!When HP decreases, recover HP by eating stone trees.
!If HP is below 60%, self-immolates into 3 creatures.
!If HP is below 20%, self-immolates into 10 animals.
!Destroys 1 hour after summoning
‘The phase feature was obtained..’
First, I put into my head the details of the visible blue stone golem's phases..
‘Characterized by alter ego. If you miss even one, the raid will fail. The given time is 1 hour. Typically, it is a type of treasure goblin that will go away if you don't catch it. Meaning specialized for escape and survival.’
Of course Midas knew.
‘In that case, the priority is to check the movement speed and attack speed before the phase is activated..’
The information you see is not everything.
In addition to the information that seemed to be Midas' idea, it was also important to obtain information about movement, such as attack speed, movement speed, and attack range..
‘Here I have to show my potential.’
Above all, Midas did not forget that this stage was a showcase, and a very important showcase at that..
‘Just as you need to show potential, not results, in front of major league scouts..’
For example, when major league scouts come to recruit players for Korean professional baseball, what they want to see is not whether or not the player produces results against the batter or pitcher he is currently facing..
What was more important was whether or not the skills and characteristics this player showed in the game could translate to a higher stage like the major leagues..
This stage was like that..
What advertisers wanted to see wasn't immediate firepower..
The question was whether BJ Grand Mage could show the same performance as now on a higher stage in the future..
In other words, it is meaningless to only show firepower..
‘good.’
“Lucky, gold! The hunt has begun!”
The raid for that has begun.
