Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 92
92angry player (4)
The vacant lot started to stir with the reveal of the nickname..
I closed my eyes for a moment and took stock of the situation..
First of all, the Elfnuna they talk about.
That's the nickname I used.
Without thinking much, I chose that because my character at the time was an elf..
and…….
‘I even wrote a compendium of stats.…….’
Was it around the third year??
I felt like it was a shame that I had to go through all the trouble to organize it by myself, so I saved it and posted it on the bulletin board..
As expected from a manga game bulletin board, I remember that the number of views did not exceed 100 even after a year..
however.
‘Why is everyone looking at me like I’m a rare name??’
Come to think of it, that woman earlier also told me that she was her fan and all..
Why?
The last time I joined that community was maybe 5 years ago..
‘…I became famous without even knowing it?’
Whatever the cause, I concluded.
I became famous.
We can gradually find out why it became famous..
Because we have gathered enough clues to deal with it right now..
“Ah, you misunderstood..”
Time of about 3 seconds.
After understanding the situation, I smiled brightly and waved my hand..
“I am his fan. If you read the nickname carefully, you will understand. It's not an elf sister, it's an elf nuna. It's snowing.”
It was a good thing that one spelling was changed due to duplicate nicknames..
Because I hate receiving unnecessary attention..
“Uh, now that I think about it…….”
“The nickname is different.”
Men who look at my nickname again after hearing my words.
“It's Elfnunna! Not Elfnuna!”
“What, was it an impersonation?…….”
“That can't be possible either. He said he was Korean so I expected a little bit.…….”
Soon they exhale as if they are exhausted..
Some people look at it with a slightly unsatisfactory gaze, perhaps because they feel they have been deceived..
“Haha, maybe if you're a fan.!”
The room leader, ‘Dark Man’, smiled and moderated the mood, and then gave some rules to follow in the room..
We must always call each other by their honorific names.?
There was nothing particularly worth remembering other than the fact that if you attract disruptive aggro, you will be kicked out..
“Well then, I'll just leave and you can talk freely. It doesn't matter when I leave.”
The atmosphere that welcomed new arrivals was short-lived..
People go back to their original positions and talk about random things here and there..
As I was wondering where to go, a white man approached me..
He was a player with the nickname Pink Guy..
“How many years has it been since Elfnuna??”
“Oh, I'm in my first year..”
Actually, it's been 5 months, but I thought it might be seen as strange if I said I came here too early..
However, the answer that came back was unexpected..
“really? You received the letter quite late.?”
“yes?”
“It is said that only a few people receive letters after gaining fame, and most of them receive them in the early stages when they make themselves known..”
“okay…….”
“Elfnunna, seeing as I've finally received your letter, it seems like you've been acting well. I started as a human and was carrying luggage first when I received a letter..”
“Ah, yes…….”
“Anyway, once it's been a year, it's only been about 70 days... … I guess you know what’s going on these days, right? How about there??”
I don't know if there was an incident worth telling, so I asked back as if I had misheard..
“70Day… What do you mean??”
I obviously just said it's my first year.
But why is it 70 days ago??
Pink Guy continued speaking with an apologetic expression on his face..
“Oh, if this is your first time, you might not even know that. The flow of time is different between that world and this one..”
“It's different?”
“yes. One month on Earth is about five months here..”
Simply put, it means a time ratio of 1:5..
As soon as I heard it, I had a strange feeling..
‘It's only been a month…….’
I'm glad that less time has passed, but I wonder if they've been reported missing..
There should have been someone looking for me other than the company..
Afterwards, as I was talking with the man named Pink Guy, I was able to hear various stories..
“How to get back? well. There are a lot of speculations... … I heard nothing is certain yet..”
Even players who came here much earlier have not figured out how to return..
The founder of Ghostbusters is a man who has been around for 20 years..
“5Isn't that amazing to have cleared that game a year ago.?”
“That's right.”
The more new information I hear, the more I feel defeated..
I feel like my pride as a person is being destroyed.?
Whatever it is, isn't it true that everyone here is an expert who reached the gate of the abyss before me?.
‘Even though they look stupid on the outside, they are actually great people.—’
“So, Elfnuna woke up in multiplier mode.?”
huh? How many times??
As I looked at him as if I had no idea what he was talking about, the man added..
“It's not like they broke the original version, and Elfnuna didn't break the remake version either. How many times did you use it??”
No, even if you say that, I don't understand.…….
A remake??
“Would you understand if I told you it was a pirated version? You know that. A game file that allows you to adjust experience points and drop rates, posted on the Stone Iven bulletin board 5 years ago.”
uh…….
There was something like that?
Soon Pink Guy spoke with pride that he couldn't hide..
“Oh, I'm not bragging, but I broke it by 50 times..”
How can there be so many people who have beaten this game?.
It was a moment when a long-standing question was resolved..
***
[Dungeons and Stones].
The game that took 10 years of my life to finally enter the final boss room..
While I was playing, I had many thoughts about how a game of this level of difficulty could exist..
but…….
‘You can set the maximum experience value to 100 times and the drop rate to 100 times the maximum.?’
Crazy, there are all these scams out there.?
Until now, I didn't even know the max level was 30..
Even if you catch all the monsters that come out of the labyrinth, level 11 is the limit..
‘Wait a minute, does that mean that if max level is 30, you can feed 30 essences to each character??’
To be honest, I can't even imagine it..
Isn’t this the level where you don’t have to give up anything or choose anything, you can just stick it all in?.
I felt like a fool thinking about the best combination while thinking about the synergy of each essence..
From what I've heard, it seems that even cracks, which are the key to growth, can be opened at any desired time.…….
‘If the drop rate was 100 times, the number items would just be pouring out..’
thirty integers.
And a super munchkin character armed with all kinds of Noble Phantasms..
Five such characters come together to form a party.?
It's a primordial dragon, a lord of destruction, and a leviathan that were caught after hundreds of tries. It's clear that if you hit them with a slap, they would have been embarrassed..
“So Elfnuna woke up several times.?”
“……I am also 50 times.”
“Oh, I see. It wasn't difficult?”
It's not that difficult.
With these conditions, I'm confident that I can clear it in one go no matter what kind of damn event happens, be it a dimensional collapse or something..
but…….
‘If I say that, it will be my loss..’
Just as a demon hunter came looking for me as soon as I gained fame, excessive attention can be poisonous. It's foolish to take risks by showing off someone..
Let’s not do anything flashy and just find out what we need to know..
“The person who created this place did a few times the mode.?”
“Oh, him? Don't be surprised when you hear it. You cleared it in 15x mode. It must have been possible since you were the original user..”
“15ship… okay.”
I thought it was something that should be surprising, so I pretended to be surprised along with it. For reference, Pink Guy said that the average value of the players is 60 to 80 times higher.…….
After hearing those words, the conversation of people laughing and talking far away began to stick in my ears..
“Haha, isn’t this a truly absurd world? I still haven't been in a crack. In the game, all you had to do was click.”
“Huh, that's right. If it's so hard to get into the crack, how can you get to the last floor?…….”
“I heard it was a game with a lot of Easter eggs, so I should have been more aware of those things..”
Players lament and compare the remake version they have played with reality..
It was worth it.
This is a reality version with a higher level of difficulty than the original..
“Phew…….”
A deep sense of desperation washes over me..
Seniors who beat this game before me.
Thinking like that, I was trying to console myself by saying that I should somehow find something to learn from rather than putting things down.…….
This is Won, doesn’t it look funny?.
“Elfnuna?”
“sorry. Just thinking about it…….”
After that, I continued talking with Pink Guy for a while..
In doing so, I learned things that are common sense that an average player would know, and I also became more aware of how this community works..
Also, one question was solved.
‘Remake… So, the game started to become popular again as the game went around, and my nickname also became famous?…….’
The conversation with Pink Guy was beneficial in many ways..
It was kind of fun too.
“Ha, if I eat just one slice of pizza, I won’t have any wishes… … . Elfnuna, is there anything you want to eat??”
“Coke and soup.”
“Gukbap? what kind of food is that?”
“It's the most efficient food I've ever eaten..”
How long has it been since we had this conversation??
***
After chatting a few words with other people, I left the new room..
Finally, Pink Guy asked if he could add me as a friend, and I politely declined. He was definitely a nice guy, but he didn't want to be friends..
Even though I was nice to you, I was too nice to you..
As if you were dealing with someone of the opposite sex you like..
‘Anyway, I think I know everything I need to know now.…….’
Even after returning to the room where the computer was, I read the bulletin boards and notices, cramming random information into my head..
So now it's time to achieve what you came here for.
‘Let’s learn about dimensional collapse..’
Tapping on the keyboard, I checked the timer written in the lower right corner..
What was initially 12 hours has already been reduced to 7 hours..
Even if you didn't log out, you had to hurry because they said the space would close when time was up..
[exchange]
Use the mouse to open the exchange page.
Here, a service was provided where information, goods, etc. could be purchased with ghost points and GP..
Simply put, it is possible to obtain goods or purchase rare items using GP..
but…….
‘It's probably best not to touch this either..’
I decided not to use this feature as much as possible..
In the case of goods, they must pass through reality..
No matter how complicated the brokerage system is,.
Even if the system appears to be quite safe,.
In the end, since real objects come and go in reality, there is bound to be a point of contact with me as a barbarian..
[Owned GP : 0]
Therefore, the option to recharge GP with real money is a pass..
Of course, you need GP to purchase information about dimensional collapse, but…….
it wasn't a big problem.
Because you can be self-sufficient here.
Click, click.
Use the mouse to apply [information] filters among exchange items. Then change the category to [Purchase Request].
Then, countless questions appear..
[20GP] Is there an easy way to get to the 2nd floor??
[100~500GP] I'm training a close dealer, and I'd like to know how to develop a strong deal from the beginning..
For easy questions, there was less GP offered as a reward..
but…….
[7,000GP] I would like to know about the special events for each staircase of the 4th floor of the Tower in the Sky..
[2,800GP] I would like to know exactly how the passive skill ‘Dragon Master’ is judged..
In the case of in-depth questions, the reward was large..
Therefore, they were sorted in descending order of price..
Because that's the most efficient.
[70,000GP] Here is a strategy for conquering the 1st floor tier monarch. no joke.
[69,000 GP] Please only talk to those who know more about Skull Island on the 6th floor..
1layer lord?
[I requested a 1:1 conversation with TacitRonin..]
[transaction is complete.]
[Owned GP : 70,000]
6Skull Island, a hidden piece element of the floor?
[I requested a 1:1 conversation with Bro_78..]
[transaction is complete.]
[Owned GP : 139,000]
There's nothing I don't know about this game.
