Level 1 Player

Chapter 187

Chapter 187 the emperor’s illusion

The movements of McDwell and Kardoshi were immediately reported to Hyunseong.

The undead corps was monitoring 24 hours a day, so even if I wanted to know, I could not know.

‘This is the one I finally came out of.’

Hyunseong immediately ordered a large-scale withdrawal.

And he activated the gift he had prepared for them.

McDwell and Kardoshi ran wildly as if they were vomiting the resentment they had been holding back.

Once, all the undead that were monitoring them were smashed.

After that, he moved to attack Hyunseong and others who were conducting a rescue operation.

But it was already one step late.

“God damn it!”

“Everyone ran away!”

While McDwell and Kadoshi smashed the undead, all those who were conducting a rescue operation had fled.

‘I can’t give up like this.’

‘I’m going to put an end to it.’

McDwell and Kadoshi grinded their teeth and traced the traces of Hyunseong and his party.

Fortunately, the traces were not completely broken.

“let’s go!”

“Everyone, hurry up! We must catch them before the traces are completely gone!”

McDwell and Cardoshi chasing the flow of magic while chasing their minions.

The remaining magical power after using the space movement skill is highly volatile.

So we had to move as quickly as possible.

If you procrastinate even a little, even the traces that were left will disappear.

McDwell and Cardosi frantically pursued the trail with their men.

They do not even know that their actions are being reported to Hyunseong.

* * *

‘You are moving as expected.’

A faint smile appeared on Hyunseong’s lips.

While McDwell and Kardoshi held their breath, Hyunseong did not stand still.

Except for the undead, we built a system that can detect their movements.

‘No matter how high-level the detection skill is, it cannot detect objects that do not have vitality and magic power.’

In fact, there was no need to detect.

Beings without life are nothing more than inanimate objects, and objects without magic pose no threat to the player.

McDwell and Cardosi, apparently, failed to detect Earth’s electronics.

There was a high probability that even if you saw it with your own eyes, you wouldn’t know what it was doing.

‘Right now we only cover this area, but later in time we may cover the entire dimension.’

If you had the money and time, this would have been possible.

‘Let’s finish by setting up a monitoring network on all dimension gates.’

What if we installed a surveillance network on all dimension gates that are open in this dimension?

Players from the enemy dimension can notice the fact that they crossed the dimension gate.

What if a monitoring network that covers the entire dimension of this dimension, not just the dimension gate, is completed?

You can find out the enemy’s movement path in detail.

Earth already has such a system.

So, when a monster wave occurred or a new dimension gate was created, an immediate response was possible.

‘As long as the surveillance network is completed, effective guerrilla warfare is possible.’

In this dimension, the watch net will be used to monitor players from the enemy dimension, not the monsters.

just like now

‘come.’

Hyunseong looked at McDwell and Kardoshi.

The two approached to a distance that could be seen with the naked eye.‘The magnetic barrier is ready.’

What if McDwell and Kardoshi only lead their men to this place?

I could easily deal with them.

“There!”

“let’s go!”

McDwell and Kardoshi followed the traces of the rescue team and entered the magnetic barrier on their own feet.

‘It got caught.’

A satisfied smile appeared on Hyunseong’s lips.

‘It’s your failure that the rescue team didn’t notice that they left a mark on purpose.’

Hyunseong unlocked his stealth skill and revealed himself.

“There it is!”

“Catch him!”

McDwell and Kardoshi led their men and rushed to Hyunseong.

Hyunseong raised his horsepower and prepared for battle.

‘The exit route has been blocked.’

Level 1 players like Hyunseong, Lucia and Partisha, blocked McDwell and Kadoshi’s escape.

“You bastard!”

Mac Dwell raised his mana and cast his main attack skill.

No, I was trying to cast.

However, the moment he raised his magic power, it returned as a chain that bound his body.

“What is this?”

McDwell’s face hardened.

“What are you procrastinating on?”

Seeing such McDwell’s appearance, Car Dosi screamed in frustration and raised his magical powers.

“Gagging!”

But Kadoshi had to be like McDwell.

“Why magic?”

“It’s a trap!”

McDwell and Kardoshi had never experienced a magnetic barrier.

However, he soon realized that this sudden phenomenon had something to do with this place.

Until recently, it was possible to freely use magic power.

“You have to get out of here!”

At McDwell’s cry, Kadoshi and his other men turned around.

Fragile! Whoops!

However, it was faster for Hyunseong’s Black Lightning Magician and Book of Flames to arrive at them than for McDwell and Kadoshi’s party to get out of the magnetic barrier.

“Aaaaaah!”

A desperate scream erupted.

McDwell and Kadoshi used their men as shields to block Hyunseong’s attack and ran with all their might.

‘Now we can get out of this place a little bit more.’

‘If you just leave this place, I’ll show you the Jailbreak.’

Was it because of the sacrifices of his subordinates?

McDwell and Kardoshi had arrived at the edge of the realm of the magnetic barrier.

But there were already two guards.

Aww!

Lucia’s shield struck McDwell’s body.

“Gagging!”

Mac Dwell, whose bones were crushed all over his body, fell to the floor helplessly.

Whoops!

Partisha’s sword pierced Kadoshi’s heart.

“Cool!”

Kadoshi, who had his heart pierced, spewed out red blood.“Hey, can you do this?”

“Only to the natives of the colonies… … .”

McDwell and Kadoshi muttered with vain faces.

It was because I never dreamed that I would be subjected to such a thing at a level that was despised as a colony.

bum bum.

Lucia and Partisha slowly approached McDwell and Kadoshi.

And so easily the two of them stopped breathing.

It was too futile to say that it was the death of the king of the Principality, who had the second power after the emperor in the dimension of the giants.

‘finished.’

Of course, it wasn’t really the end.

Rather, it was closer to the beginning.

Because in the mainland of the giants ruled by a powerful emperor, there were still many powerful men of the ranks of McDwell and Kadoshi who had just died.

* * *

– His subordinate, McDwell, has died.

– His subordinate, Kadoshi, has died.

“uh?”

The emperor frowned at the message that appeared before his eyes.

‘You’re dead again.’

Three were sent, and one died.

Until then, it had just gone unnoticed.

It was busy during the siege, and although Bodfu was killed, McDwell and Kadoshi were still intact.

But all three were killed.

This was a serious problem.

‘This damn thing… … .’

Four kings of the Principality have already been killed.

This was never something to be taken lightly.

‘I have to prepare for the next siege… … .’

In my mind, I wanted to focus on the game after handing it over to the servants to take care of it.

But I could never do that.

He himself was the emperor.

It was their duty to protect the safety of the princes’ kings.

‘Looking at what I’ve been through four times, I don’t think he’s a normal guy… … .’

If I thought it was easy and kept sending only the princes, I could end up with a line portrait.

‘I can’t help it.’

The Emperor put down the mouse and keyboard and stood up.

-Everyone gather in Daejeon.

The emperor, who gave instructions to the princes at the cry of the overlord, headed to Daejeon.

After that.

The emperor declared his kinship.

* * *

Hyunseong further accelerated the rescue operation after dealing with the kings of the dynasty who had come over from the mainland of the giants.

At the same time he brought in a bunch of Earth’s modern electronic equipment to detect the dimensional gates.

Wow!

Thanks to this, Hyunseong was able to easily detect the massive invasion of the giants.

‘It’s coming in huge hordes.’

It wasn’t as small as it used to be.

Hundreds of thousands of giant players crossed the dimension gate at once.

‘Fighting head-on is a loss.’

Hyunseong issued a massive withdrawal order.

Are the enemies attacking you?

He didn’t have to take it head-on.After convening his subordinates, Hyunseong opened the dimensional gate.

After that, he left for the dimension of Partishia without any regrets.

* * *

The emperor was directly involved.

The size was great.

This is because the kings of the Principality to show themselves well to the emperor led the troops under their direct control and participated in the war on a large scale.

‘I’ll wipe it all away.’

The Emperor was planning to take this opportunity to completely eliminate the forces that were interfering with his game life.

Even if there is a limit to chasing colonies like this.

However… … .

‘Where the hell did these guys go?’

For this subjugation, the Emperor purchased a large amount of the Eye of Horus, a detection item, from the system shop.

It was to subdue all the native players who were engaged in guerrilla warfare by sweeping over the colony in a large-scale search.

However, even after scouring the entire colony like this, he could not find any native players who had waged guerrillas.

A week has passed.

A month has passed.

Six months have passed.

However, no matter how much they searched, they could not find the native players who had engaged in guerrillas.

Without resorting to the Eye of Horus, just in case, he created a unit composed of only those with creative-grade detection skills and searched the entire colony dimension.

Nevertheless, no results were obtained.

‘Damn it.’

He had a big heart and left his own family.

But the opponent to fight has disappeared.

From the emperor’s point of view, it was no different than being dishonored.

‘Did these children rise up to the sky, or did they fall to the ground?’

He spent three months on the search, but nothing came of it.

Then he had no choice but to draw this conclusion.

‘It wasn’t done by a native player.’

Level 1 players have the ability to open dimension gates.

The monarch player also has the ability to open dimension gates.

It was one of the two.

Either a level 1 player from another dimension has attacked your colony, or one of the lords from another dimension has attacked your colony.

Maybe it was both.

‘Somehow, I thought it was strange.’

It was almost an empty dimension.

As such, when a powerful enough to defeat the king of the dynasty suddenly appeared, he should have been suspicious.

The suspicion that guerrilla warfare may not have been a native of this dimension.

‘What do we do?’

The emperor was about to break his head.

He could not stay in the colony forever.

Everything here was lacking and poor.

To the extent that the emperor himself complained like this, the dissatisfaction of the princes must have grown considerably.

‘Should I go back?’

It was already six months.

Perhaps even if they were stationed for three years instead of three months, the enemy would not show up.

Unless they withdraw.

‘Let’s dig a trap.’

He pretends to be withdrawn and hides himself.

Then those who fought guerrilla warfare may reappear.

The emperor withdrew his troops in a large scale.

After that, he went into hiding, leaving only the elite.

A week, a month, and three months have passed since I went into hiding.

However, those who engaged in guerrillas never showed up.

It was as if they had given up on the colonial dimension.

* * *

‘I haven’t gone yet. Let’s see who wins.’

Hyunseong looked at the smartphone with an expression that there was nothing to lose.

The composition and number of the giants who passed through the dimension gate were recorded on the smartphone.

Hyunseong brought the natives who were rescued while crossing the dimension gate, as well as the native players who were acting with them.

Of course, there was no one to pass on the information.

However, Hyunseong had electronic equipment that was operated as a point by applying the jewel of alternating current.

The electronic equipment left in Lucia’s dimension absorbed Hyunseong’s point and was operating 24 hours a day.

Manastone was used as the power source for electronic equipment.

‘I’m glad I haven’t gotten caught yet.’

He used magic stones as a power source, so he thought there was a risk of getting caught.

So, there is even a device that automatically explodes when hit.

However, because of the use of the lowest level Manastone, surprisingly, none of the equipment has been destroyed so far.

‘I have nothing to lose anyway.’

Hyunseong went back and forth between the dimension of Partisha and the dimension entrusted to the necromancer Shizura, and was absorbed in hunting.

As a result, he steadily increased his stats.

On the other hand, the giants who came to the dimension of Lucia suffered great losses.

Inconvenience to amenities was not a problem.

The real problem was leveling up through hunting.

Lucia’s dimension collapsed too early in the hands of monsters.

Therefore, there were no monsters for high-level giant players to hunt.

If I had to say that it was a high-grade monster, myth grade was the end.

Even if the soldiers of the giants do not know, it is safe to say that there are no monsters that can be called nobles by hunting and raising their level.

‘It is the worst for a player to be unable to level up no matter how many other resources are available.’

There are many resources and slaves in the dimension of Lucia.

However, there were no monsters to urge players to grow.

‘The longer you guys endure, the less the difference between me and you guys.’

From Hyunseong’s point of view, the giants could stay longer or return without staying.

* * *

‘Damn it… … .’

The emperor frowned heavily.

– Withdraw all troops.

The emperor finally ordered the withdrawal of troops.

He wrinkled his face properly.

He made a direct relationship with his family, but he came back without any results.

The emperor ordered more thorough management of the slaves, leaving a total of 30 princes in the colony.

It was because of the concern that a player from another dimension who had been engaged in guerrilla war might re-invasion.

The emperor and most of his princes returned to the mainland.

A proposal was also made to move all slaves to the mainland, but was rejected.

This is because most of the slaves in the colony were engaged in mining, agriculture, civil engineering or construction.

What if all the slaves were moved to the mainland?

It would be like giving up the newly acquired expansive colony in effect.

It was an unavoidable measure because the population of the giants was not large enough to cover both dimensions.

‘I just wasted my time.’

The emperor returned to the palace and frowned.

I couldn’t make a hasty decision to withdraw because of my pride.

But it was kind of stubborn.

‘Let’s enjoy it properly after a long time.’The emperor left his home and set up a temporary game room in the field with his subordinates.

However, the temporary was only temporary.

Everything was uncomfortable.

Decisively, I couldn’t enjoy the game properly because of the princes who reported and asked for a meeting from time to time.

‘But not now.’

Colonial affairs were entrusted to 30 princes.

From now on, you can fully devote all your time to the game.

‘Red Dragon Guilds, from now on, say that you are dead.’

The Emperor plunged into the world of the game with his firm expression on his face.

* * *

‘It seems that you have no intention of withdrawing completely.’

Hyunseong saw the enemy’s movements and was convinced.

There was no change after the massive withdrawal.

‘Let’s start reconnaissance.’

Hyunseong opened the dimension gate and visited Lucia’s dimension after a long time.

‘There are quite a few strong ones.’

After a rough reconnaissance using the creation-grade stealth skill, Hyunseong finished his situational grasp.

‘Thank you.’

A bright smile bloomed on Hyunseong’s lips.

He left quite a few princes in the colony.

However, whether the enemies were headless, at least two princes were gathered, and there were cases where there were at most three or more.

‘Anyway, if you enter the realm of the magnetic barrier, it’s over.’

With Hyunseong’s skill, one of the princes could easily be subdued.

The two were a little fuzzy.

It is said that Hyunseong’s stats have risen a lot, but it may or may not be possible to subdue the two princes.

But that wasn’t the point here.

‘I’ll just have to come here once when I get back to the self-barrier cooldown after pounding in moderation.’

The cooldown of the magnetic barrier is quite long. once used?

You have to wait 100 days.

‘But if you can catch the princes in a hundred-day cycle, it’s never a loss-making business.’

What if the enemies continue to maintain this system?

It took a lot of time, but it was also possible to get rid of all the princes of the giants.

Of course, unless the opponent is an idiot, we will come up with a countermeasure.

‘However, no matter how much countermeasures are taken, it will be difficult to prepare for it unless you are aware of the existence of the magnetic barrier.’

The giants do not know about magnetic barriers.

The magnetic barrier was a taboo item in the dimension ruled by necromancer Shizura.

All kings and high lords feared the magnetic barrier.

Why not?

It’s something that can take away their power, even temporarily.

The king and the high lords, who had been growling at each other, gathered their strength as one.

After that, he attacked the family that had the book of bondage that could activate the magnetic barrier.

The family that had the book of bondage that could activate the magnetic barrier against the attacks of the king and the high lords was destroyed as it was.

Even if the magnetic barrier was a treasure of heaven, as long as there was a cooldown, it could not stop the attack of the kings and lords who joined forces as one.

‘Well, the only survivor of that extinct family came to Earth, so I was rather thankful.’

Magnetic barriers have strong power.

But what if it turns out that you have it?

He himself dies and his family perishes.

‘But that’s the story of that dimension.’

For the giants, the situation was different.

‘The information hasn’t leaked out yet.’

The giants thought that Hyunseong had removed the two princes by force, not that he borrowed the power of items like the Book of Bondage.‘Then let’s start slowly.’

Hyunseong summoned his subordinates through the Overlord’s Call skill.

At the same time, another large-scale rescue operation began.

* * *

“They have appeared!”

Prince Yorushi’s eyes twinkled.

“These guys have finally exposed their tails.”

“Go now.”

At the words of the other prince Sar Mie, Yorushi shook his head.

“Have you forgotten your Majesty’s majesty?”

“But isn’t this a great opportunity for the two of us to make a big ball?”

“If you know that you have violated the rules, you may be punished, not rewarded.”

At the end of Yorushi’s words, Sarmi also nodded.

The giants weren’t the only ones playing.

Naturally, he had dug a trap to catch the rat that had escaped to another dimension.

“Call me right away.”

“I see.”

Those with long-distance communication skills and those with long-distance space movement skills.

With these two, the princes could freely talk to each other.

Where is that?

It was also possible to move quickly.

All the princes who were stationed in the colony flocked to the area where Yorushi and Sarmie were located.

30 people in total.

The force possessed by the 30 princes was strong enough to surpass even the emperor.

“egg plant.”

At Yorushi’s words, the 30 princes cast their stealth skills and rushed to the scene of the incident all at once.

“Aww!”

“Kill the giants!”

“Rescue people!”

The scene of the incident was a mess.

The giant players were being unilaterally slaughtered.

‘Those cheeky bastards.’

Shush!

Thirty princes released their stealth skills and appeared all at once.

“die!”

And he tried to use his attack skills against the native players who were slaughtering giant players.

However… … .

Crisp!

The magical energy that was raised to cast the attack skill became a chain that bound the body of the princes as they were.

“What is this?”

“Gagging!”

“Why is everyone doing this all of a sudden?”

“Don’t use magic!”

“You have to get out of here right now!”

Among the princes, those whose heads were spinning quickly figured out the cause of the problem.

“Where are you going in such a hurry?”

However, it was not the time to go, even if it was at will when he came.

‘That’s great.’

A bright smile appeared on Hyunseong’s lips.

To be honest, it was a plan aimed at the two princes.

However, a large number of unpredictable people caught on.

‘You guys also wore their heads, this is it.’

The giants had an organically connected network and means of transportation.

Perhaps in order not to repeat the defeat of the last time, as many as 30 princes came all at once.

But that was their defeat.

‘No matter how many heads there are, they are meaningless in front of a magnetic barrier.’

However, the giants did not know about it.

So I came in a group like this.

That was their mistake.

Fragile! Whoops!

The Black Lightning God Magician and the Book of Flames covered the bodies of the princes who lost their power by being bound by the magnetic barrier.

“Aaaaah!”

“help me!”

“You can’t die in vain like this!”

The princes dispersed in all directions and fled.

But the escape route was already blocked by Partisia, Lucia and Cairo.

It is an operation that mobilized as many as four first-level players including Hyunseong.

Of course, there was no escape route for the princes to escape.

‘Not a single one is left alive.’

The existence of the magnetic barrier must not be discovered.

The reason why the family that had a magnetic barrier in the dimension where the necromancer Shizra was located was destroyed was because their existence was discovered.

What if security was maintained well?

Perhaps that family could rule the entire dimension.

As such, for Hyunseong, security was life.

* * *

The emperor was keenly absorbed in the game.

At that moment, a series of messages appeared in front of my eyes.

– His subordinate, Yorushi, has died.

– His subordinate Stecker has died.

– His subordinate, Sarmie, has died.

… … aftermath… …

“Uh, how did this happen… … .”

The emperor was at a loss for words.
