Level 1 Player

Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Imoogi

‘By the way, this is really good.’

Psychometric – Hero Rank

-Active skill book

-You can browse past information contained in things.

– Provides holographic images and sounds.

– Information older than one month cannot be viewed.

-Past information of magical objects cannot be viewed.

At first I thought it was too expensive.

However, the ability to access information from the past gave tremendous power to information warfare.

In fact, without psychometry skills, the case would have ended in a line that greatly humiliated Minister Lee Hang-gu.

No, maybe he didn’t even know that Minister Lee Hang-koo was the subject of the work.

However, thanks to his psychometry skills, he was able to find out the truth, and he was able to completely bury Minister Lee Hang-gu.

‘This will be used a lot in the future.’

It may not be helpful in actual battle, but from the perspective of Hyunseong, who lives in a modern society where information is a weapon, psychometry skills were the best spy and attack weapon.

Wow!

Then, Hyunseong’s smartphone vibrated.

It was Shin Yoon-ah.

“Yes, Yoona.”

-Can we meet now?

“Yes, anything is possible.”

-Then please tell me where you currently live. I will go there.

“Oh, wait a minute.”

Hyunseong quickly searched for a nearby coffee shop.

Currently, Hyunseong is staying at a motel.

We couldn’t make an appointment to meet in the motel room.

“I think you can come to the small coffee shop near Sangdo Station.”

– I’m leaving right now. We’ll be there in about 30 minutes.

“all right.”

Hyunseong got dressed and got ready to go out.

30 minutes later.

Hyunseong and Shin Yoona met at a coffee shop.

“I’m going to ask you straight up. Is this the work of Minister Lee Hang-gu’s scandal, Hyunseong?”

“Why do you think so?”

“Because the only person who can do such a thing is Hyunseong.”

The confrontation between Hyunseong and Minister Lee Hang-gu was widespread among key government officials and officials of the Players’ Association.

On the surface, it was Hyunseong’s victory.

However, Minister Lee Hang-koo did not lose much, except for the fact that he lost his face.

Minister Lee Hang-koo’s connections were too strong to be fired just because he had friction with the player.

Crucially, Minister Lee Hang-gu informed the upper management that he would publicly apologize to Hyunseong.

Unless Minister Lee Hang-gu was an idiot, there was no way he would repeat the same mistake as last time.

Government officials thought that the matter would end with Minister Lee Hang-koo’s apology.

But suddenly, there was an incident where Minister Lee Hang-gu’s corruption ledgers were made public.

Minister Lee Hang-koo is not the only one affected by this incident.

Large guilds, including members of the National Assembly, were also hit hard.Government officials were convinced that it was the player who disclosed the corruption ledger of Minister Lee Hang-koo.

And the person most suspected of being the culprit was Hyunseong.

There is no evidence.

But the heartache was enough.

“Government officials are reacting sensitively.”

The player is the foundation that supports society and is an indispensable element in maintaining the state.

But there are so many risk factors.

The player’s force is so powerful that it threatens modern weapons.

All kinds of extraordinary skills look like magic.

The establishment recognize the need for the player, but do not want them to threaten their power.

In addition, if a player engages in a crime or attacks civilians, even if there are unavoidable circumstances, the punishment is quite heavy.

“I think you should be careful because Hyunseong is suspected of what he did.”

“What if it turns out that I did it?”

Shin Yoon-ah’s expression hardened at Hyunseong’s question.

“You could be arrested for house trespassing and theft.”

“I will be subject to aggravated punishment according to the Player Special Act.”

“If that happens, you have to put public opinion on your back.”

“I would love to do that. But I’m not the culprit, so I don’t think he needs to worry about it.”

Shin Yoon-ah smiled bitterly at Hyunseong’s words.

Through a conversation just before, Shin Yoon-ah was convinced that Hyunseong was the culprit.

“be careful. The establishment don’t want players to have power. But this should have been enough warning.”

If you touch it, it won’t budge.

This incident forced government officials to treat Hyunseong a little more carefully.

This is because he overthrew Minister Lee Hang-gu by using the secret book and public opinion, not force.

I don’t know how the heck they found the corrupt ledger of Minister Lee Hang-gu.

But it may feel like a stronger fear.

Because it was obvious that they would think that if they did something wrong, they could end up in the same situation.

How many politicians are pure without a single particle?

“There must have been a lot of enemies. He must have become more vigilant about Hyunseong. So, for the time being, you’d better be quiet.”

“Well, it has nothing to do with me, but it’s better to stay calm because the times are confusing. I don’t want to be suspicious either.”

“You thought well. It is better to avoid unnecessary doubts.”

After that, Hyunseong and Shin Yuna had a conversation about everyday content.

Even the episodes during this second cataclysm were overflowing with stories to tell.

Actually, Shin Yoon-ah had a lot of things she wanted to ask Hyunseong.

Shin Yoon-ah also made various efforts to dismiss Minister Lee Hang-gu.

But it was practically impossible.

There is circumstantial evidence, but no physical evidence.

However, Hyunseong quickly dismissed Minister Lee Hang-gu.

I wondered.

How in the world could Hyunseong, who has no connections with the government or the Players Association, oust Lee Hang-koo?

He wanted to ask.

But I endured.

I didn’t want to bother Hyunseong for nothing.

* * *

Korea overcame the Second Cataclysm relatively quickly.

Other countries also began to gradually regain stability as they conquered the dimension gates one by one.However, instead of finding stability, some countries were sinking deeper and deeper into the chaos.

Aaaaaaaaah!

A series of bombardments fell from the air.

The gun barrels of the distant artillery units continued to fire shells at the same target.

It was an expression of his will to deal with monsters even if he gave up the city’s infrastructure.

However… … .

Aaaaaaah!

The monster survived.

The rankers’ total attack failed.

bombing failed.

Neither the players nor the army exerted any power in front of the gigantic Imoogi that covered their entire body with jet-black scales.

Opinions were raised that nuclear bombs should be used, but they were not accepted.

Using nuclear weapons in one’s capital was the same as destroying the country.

In addition, on the outskirts of the city, millions of civilians who had not yet taken refuge were trembling in fear.

The players raised their weapons again.

The army also overhauled the barrel.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

At that moment, an acidic breath that melted everything came out of the Imoogi’s mouth.

The players’ bodies melted helplessly.

The gun barrels of the artillery units melted and the shells that had been stacked exploded in a chain.

The wings and engines of the fighters quickly melted and crashed in succession.

Players and soldiers fighting to defend the capital with one shot of the acid breath were wiped out in an instant.

Annihilation of elite players and armies.

The state leaders were greatly embarrassed by this sudden situation.

And he chose to run away.

Once out of the capital, the players and troops scattered in the provinces were arranged to engage in the second battle with the Imoogi.

However… … .

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Unfortunately, Imoogi’s breath did not stop even after melting players and troops.

It continued to spit and destroyed everything in the city.

The air defense shelter melted without the national leaders even having time to escape.

Acid breath in gaseous form flowed into the shelter, which lost its original function.

The body of the national leaders melted without even having time to escape.

Kyaaaaaaa!

Imoogi let out a roar of victory.

The city once called Pyongyang has disappeared from the ground.

* * *

Wow!

“uh?”

While we were talking for a while, Yoona Shin’s pager started vibrating loudly.

“I have to get up first.”

Shin Yoon-ah jumped up from her seat.

Wow!

Before Shin Yoon-a could check the details of the call, Hyunseong’s pager also rang loudly.

“I will go with you.”

“I would love to do that.”Hyunseong and Shin Yuna got up from their seats.

Then he moved towards the Headquarters of the Players Association.

“One Jindo dog has been dispatched.”

“What the hell is going on?”

“I will contact the headquarters.”

While Yoona Shin was calling, Hyunseong opened an internet browser on her smartphone just in case.

Hyunseong could see the reason for the call as soon as the internet browser opened.

It was thanks to the article that came out on the portal main page.

-Pyongyang is gone!

– The collapse of the North Korean regime!

– What is the possibility of Imoogi, a monster that cannot be graded, going south?

-Can Korea stop the Imoogi?

Hyunseong read the articles one by one.

The content didn’t matter.

All articles were condensed into the title.

‘This is more serious than I thought.’

Countries with low player level or weak military power often fail to block the dimension gate.

In such a case, the suppression begins with the help of other countries.

The dungeon suppressed like that will share ownership with other countries.

In the case of small countries, there were cases where their dungeons were completely colonized by other countries.

But North Korea was not such a weak country.

North Korea is economically one of the poorest countries.

However, the military power itself is one of the top 20 military powers in the world.

The level of players is never low.

This is an era in which the number of high-level players possessed is regarded as national power.

North Korea’s dictatorship has invested heavily for high-level players, and it has paid off.

However, the capital of North Korea disappeared overnight.

Because they couldn’t stop a dimensional gate that suddenly appeared in Pyongyang.

‘Isn’t it supposed to be legendary?’

The highest level of dungeons in existence is the hero level.

Monsters were also at the end of the hero grade.

Perhaps the leaders of each country are unaware of the fact that there are monsters higher than the hero level.

However, Hyunseong was aware of the existence of the legendary grade through his unique skill.

‘If it’s really legendary, it’s a big deal… … .’

Maybe you have to deal with it with a nuke.

* * *

There is an emergency in Korea.

The disappearance of Pyongyang occurred after the second cataclysm was over and it was barely finding stability.

The Korean government had no choice but to be very nervous.

The Imoogi was also an Imoogi, but it was difficult to predict how the North Korean army, which had lost its leadership, would move.

China and Russia were equally perplexed.

China and Russia have strengthened the defenses of their border areas and deployed their troops to the full.

However, at present, China and Russia were not in a situation where they could be concerned about the Imoogi.

This is because they could not dungeon all the dimensional gates that were opened in their own country.

China and Russia suffered massive damage from the Second Cataclysm.

Because the territory was so wide, there were many newly opened dimensional gates.Since there are many dimensional gates, so many monsters appeared.

In a situation where even domestic problems could not be solved, foreign problems arose, and China and Russia had no choice but to pay attention.

If the Imoogi invaded their own territory, they had no choice but to divide and defend the few troops and players.

The eyes of Korea, China and Russia were focused on the movement of Lee Moo-gi.

* * *

Imoogi roamed North Korea wildly.

If they headed south, South Korea was very nervous, and if they headed north, China and Russia issued emergency alerts.

The movement speed of the Imoogi was incredibly fast.

Traveling close to 100 kilometers a day, it devastated the entire North Korea.

The North Korean army, whose central government had collapsed, collapsed helplessly in the attack of Lee Moo-gi.

The North Korean army, who did not face the Imoogi, was equally perplexed.

The dimensional gate opened in Pyongyang could not be sealed.

The dimensional gate from which the Imoogi came out constantly vomited out monsters belonging to dragon species such as Wyverns and Drakes.

The monsters that escaped the dimensional gate ran rampantly, committing indiscriminate slaughter.

That was the beginning.

The military and players who could not handle the rampaging monsters were scattered.

In fact, from the moment Pyongyang disappeared, the North Korean military had no chance of winning.

This is because rankers and high-level players were annihilated while fighting the Imoogi in Pyongyang.

Without rankers and high-level players, it was almost impossible to hunt hero-grade monsters with the army alone.

To make matters worse, other dungeons also caused problems.

Hunting was not done in the dungeon due to the riots of Imoogi and hero grade monsters.

Naturally, as time passed, the monsters in the dungeon became saturated, and some of them caused a monster wave.

Normal and rare grade monsters poured out of the dungeon.

From that moment on, North Korea was no longer human territory.

It has become a world ruled by monsters.

Eventually, a large number of refugees and remnants began to flow into South Korea.

* * *

An emergency call was issued.

The targets were players directly under the association including Hyunseong, rankers, and high-level players.

The government placed the summoned rankers and high-level players at the forefront.

It was to prepare for Imoogi’s southward movement and to defend against monsters flowing in from the North.

However, as the Imoogi did not descend south and only time passed, the rankers and high-level players began to complain more and more.

“How long do I have to deal with only these little bastards?”

“That’s it. Been playing for over a week already. What the hell is the loss?”

Rankers and high-level players are like walking businesses.

They were less than level 200, and only low-level monsters were being hunted.

It was like slaughtering a chicken with a cow knife.

Although the government paid the allowance, it was only pocket money for rankers and high-level players.

As the dissatisfaction of rankers and high-level players grew, another problem emerged.

High-level dungeons located in South Korea showed signs of causing a monster wave.

It was due to the fact that both rankers and high-level players who had to clean high-level dungeons were placed in the border area.

In the end, the government divided the high-level players into two groups after much deliberation.

It is divided into upper and lower groups based on level and combat ability.

The upper group stood in the forefront and blocked the monster from descending.

The subgroup cleared high-level dungeons through rotation rotation between the metropolitan area and provinces.

The government even mobilized military transport helicopters for the mobility of subgroups.The upper group was dissatisfied, but the lower group cheered.

“Now I’m going to try hunting like a hunt.”

“Goodbye to this stuffy place.”

However, the cheers of the subgroup did not last long.

With the Second Cataclysm, the number of high-level dungeons has increased tremendously.

The number of dungeons was too large for the subgroup to handle.

As in the beginning of the Second Cataclysm, a forced march was held in which you had to keep your eyes closed while moving and hunt monsters all day long.

“I’d rather be on the front line.”

“It never gives me time to rest.”

Despite the fact that the subgroup was pilgrimage to the Breaking Down dungeon, as time passed, more and more high-level dungeons began to show signs of causing a monster wave.

The dissatisfaction of high-level players rose to the throat.

Although the city is inevitably following the government’s instructions, the dissatisfaction of high-level players has been enormous.

To prevent the second cataclysm, he could not rest and traveled around the country.

The second cataclysm was finally over, and while we were enjoying our freedom, an emergency call was issued again.

The top group had to risk the opportunity to level up and financial loss to stay on the front line.

Hero-grade monsters in North Korea often crossed the border.

However, it was at the level of growing beans in a drought, and most of the monsters crossing the border were normal and rare.

I couldn’t get experience, and I couldn’t get any items.

For the top group, it was like wasting money and time in the air.

The dissatisfaction of the subgroups who were hunting in the dungeon that matched the level was also not formidable.

The subgroup had to clear a set dungeon by traveling all over the country all day regardless of their will.

In preparation for the invasion of Imoogi, the burden of the lower group was bound to increase as the upper group at the forefront did not participate in the hunt.

There was, of course, no time to rest.

Some argue that the number of the upper group should be reduced and the number of the lower group should be increased.

But in the end, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut when I was asked what would happen if Imoogi went south.

It was the Imoogi that annihilated Pyongyang and devastated the whole of North Korea.

If the number of the top group was reduced and Imoogi went south, a huge disaster could have occurred.

Between rankers and high-level players taking huge losses… … .

Aaaaaaaaah!

‘It’s amazing.’

Hyunseong was bursting with admiration as he watched the battle of the top group at the forefront.

Aaaaah!

A normal grade monster attacked Hyunseong.

Scratch!

Hyunseong gently swung his sword to clear the monster.

front line waiting.

Hyunseong had no major complaints.

Because you can get points regardless of the level of the monster.

Of course, the achievements were messed up.

But that’s something to fix later.

Hyunseong was hunting monsters at the forefront with players directly under the association.

The border between North Korea and South Korea is quite long.

Of course, it is impossible to cover all of them with rankers and high-level players alone.

Other than that, it was the players directly under the association who took on the role of covering the region.

Hyunseong was dealing with monsters that crossed the border with familiar faces.

Kyaaaaa!Lee Soo-young, who was portrayed as a snow wolf, ran wild at the forefront, and Seo Tae-cheol supported the rear with wide-area skills.

Hyunseong ran wild at the forefront and swept away the monsters with his skills.

He did not forget to use the space to retrieve mana stones and items.

‘How long do I have to be like this?’

Hyunseong muttered to himself as he wiped away the monsters.

There were no major complaints, not at all.

Even if the achievements were mixed up, it was not common to receive items to sell through the sale of unique skills.

With the help of her older sister, Hyeon-ji Choi, she was replenishing goods by purchasing a warehouse in a private house near the forefront, but she had no choice but to be conscious of people’s gaze.

‘Isn’t it okay if we hit first and go up?’

northward.

Wouldn’t it be possible to restore North Korea’s territories as well as catch lepidoptera and eat pheasants and eggs?

However, the South Korean government, whether cautious or timid, was only giving orders to keep the border area tight.

* * *

Doo doo doo doo!

A fierce battle was taking place on the border between North Korea and China.

China had a large territory.

So many dimensional gates were opened during the Second Cataclysm.

As they have not been able to clear all of the dimensional gates in their country, the Chinese authorities have deployed a large army in the area along the border with North Korea.

The plan was to block the insufficient number of players with military firepower.

The dimensional gate created inside the city requires the help of the player.

That’s the way to quickly dungeon the dimension gate with the least damage.

If an army is rushed in and bombarded, even if the dimension gate is turned into a dungeon, no infrastructure remains.

In that respect, the border area was an area where the Chinese authorities could deploy troops without any hesitation.

An area where the natives do not live.

territory of another country.

A place where no damage to facilities or human life occurs no matter how much bombing is applied.

Aww! Aww!

The shells exploded in succession, causing a powerful explosion.

Normal and rare grade monsters were oxidized before they even came near the Chinese army.

thud! thud! thud!

The Red Drake, who appeared after hearing the binge, shrieked and rushed towards the Chinese army.

Aww! Aww!

Kyaaaaaah!

Red Drake’s scream echoed along with the bombing.

Red Drake continued to run towards the Chinese army despite being damaged by the bombing.

Whik!

At that moment, the Chinese rankers who were guarding their positions along with the Chinese army came out.

Puff puff puff puff!

Skills flew in succession.

Koo!

Red Drake, who had already been torn apart by the bombardment, could not withstand the fires of the rankers and fell to the floor as it was.

The power of modern weapons is so powerful that it is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Due to its geographical location, it cannot be used to prevent damage to facilities and people, but the firepower of modern weapons that ignores such things is strong enough to turn the land into a sea of fire and turn the mountains into powder.

There are even a small number of rankers dispatched to prepare for the invasion of Imoogi.

The border area of China was like a fortress.

The Chinese army was full of confidence.Even if the Imoogi attacked, he was confident enough to block it.

Wow!

The siren sounded and the highest alert fell.

“what’s the matter?”

Chinese ranker Wu Yuan asked with an annoyed expression on his face.

“It is said that the Imoogi is moving towards this place at a high speed.”

“okay?”

Interest grew on Wu-an’s expression.

Imoogi.

A non-gradeable monster that destroyed Pyongyang.

However, the Chinese government already knew the class of the Imoogi.

It was thanks to the existence of a monster discriminator.

Dungeon levels vary.

Even in dungeons of the same grade, the levels and grades of monsters appearing vary widely.

For that reason, in the early days, there was a fairly big problem in blocking a dungeon that suddenly overflowed.

Those who made an outstanding performance at that time were the players who got a special job called Monster Differentiator.

Those who find out the grade of the dungeon through the eyes of job skill discrimination and find out the name and level of the monster.

Usually, the importance is quite low, but when new monsters appear, it is a necessary occupation group.

For that reason, the government made monster detectives directly under their respective associations.

He became a kind of civil servant.

The Chinese government dispatched a monster identification agent to the North Korean region and attempted to determine the level and level of the Imoogi from a distance.

However, it was a failure to figure out the level.

However, the grading was successful.

Legendary rank.

It was a new class of monsters that had never appeared before.

Wu Yuan had been waiting for this opportunity to come.

That’s why I volunteered for this boring mission.

‘If you succeed in hunting, the first achievement is unconditionally displayed.’

Wuyuan had a total of three achievements.

Achievements increase stats.

Among them, the first achievement raises the stats considerably.

Wuian has the normal achievements, but never got the original achievements.

‘You should definitely get it this time.’

Woo-an’s heart swelled with anticipation.

So did the other rankers.

There is only one reason why Chinese rankers volunteered for missions that could neither level up nor earn money.

It was because of the expectation that he might get the first achievement.

* * *

Shoo woo woo woo!

The fighters were launched.

The artillery was also prepared for long-range fire.

As soon as it was confirmed that the attack direction of the Imoogi was in the friendly camp, the Chinese army boldly decided to attack first.

If a battle had no choice but to take place anyway, the battlefield had to be North Korean territory.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Bombing and shelling began.

The gunfire of modern weapons was focused on one Imoogi.

Chinese rankers, including Yuan Yuan, hoped that Imoogi would not die.

If the Imoogi dies, the first achievement is also lost.

The hopes of the Chinese rankers, including Yuan Yuan, had reached the sky, so the Imoogi began to advance at a faster pace.

The bombardment and shelling did not stop and continued to pour.

At the same time, the rankers finished preparing for battle.

A total of 181 rankers were deployed in the border area.

20 9-person parties were dispatched.

In addition, more than 3,000 high-level players who completed the 4th job change were placed.

China is full of confidence.

This is because they thought that their own rankers had a far superior ability to those of North Korean rankers.

The Chinese rankers thought the same.

In North Korea, they were bragging about being a ranker, but China is different.

If the North Korean rankers were Chinese, I was sure that they would have stayed in the middle or lower ranks among high-level players, let alone rankers.

China is a great country.

It also has the largest number of players in the world.

Rankers from countries with a population of less than 30 million and those from China with a population of over 1.4 billion are of different quality.

The Chinese believed so.

Also, realistically, there was not enough energy to pull out more rankers.

Kyaaaaaaah!

The scales were broken and the bleeding Imoogi roared violently and rushed towards the Chinese army.

“let’s go!”

“Let’s show the greatness of Chinese people!”

The Chinese rankers drew their weapons all at once towards the Imoogi that was rushing towards the Chinese army.

“Victory! Hast! Burning fighting spirit!”

The only buffer buffed the rankers.

Healers are fully prepared to pour heels at any time.

“Thunder Storm!”

“Chain Lightning!”

“Fire!”

“Giga Flare!”

The long-distance dealers who received the buff blasted the powerful thunder and flame skills at the Imoogi at once.

Tankers and melee dealers also activated their job skills and rushed towards the Imoogi at great speed.

The moment when the Chinese rankers and Imoogi clash… … .

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Imoogi let out another ferocious roar.

And at that moment… … .

-You have been caught by a psychic fear skill peer.

– The body engulfed in fear becomes rigid for 10 seconds.

The same message appeared in front of all the rankers.

Of course, the content was slightly different.

– Resist peer skills. Stiff time is reduced to 1 second.

– Resist peer skills. Stiff time reduced to 3 seconds.

– Resist peer skills. Stiff time reduced to 2 seconds.

– Perfectly resisted peer skills.

Depending on the skill resistance of the rankers, the physical stiffness of the peer was applied differently.

There were also rankers who completely resisted peers.But it didn’t matter.

Kwajik!

Imoogi’s sharp teeth devoured the bodies of tanks and melee dealers.

Aww!

Imoogi’s huge tail swept the ranged dealers and healers.

In the battle of life and death, not even 1 second, but 0.001 second can not be vigilant.

The moment the peer skill caught on, the match was already decided.

The rankers who perfectly resisted the peer were fortunately saved.

However, most of his colleagues had already been killed.

Among the Chinese rankers, the number of players who perfectly resisted peers was only eight.

No matter how ranked, 8 people could not work together to face a legendary monster.

The surviving rankers chose to escape to live.

At that moment, the Imoogi’s magical power fluctuated and summoned a jet-black thunderbolt and a storm.

Aaaaaaaaah!

Imoogi’s skills exploded continuously towards the fleeing rankers.

Some escaped and some blocked.

But in the end they all ended up the same.

Fragile! Kwajik!

Eight rankers who survived Imoogi’s skills and teeth died.

Of course, even if the rankers died, there were still more than 3,000 high-level players in the Chinese army.

The moment China’s high-level players and the military are about to counterattack… … .

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Once again, the roar of the Imoogi erupted.

The bodies of high-level players and soldiers caught in the peer became rigid.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Imoogi’s acid breath was sprayed over the heads of high-level players and soldiers who had hardened.

The high-level players and the Chinese army melted powerlessly.

Humans could not stand the acid that melted even the tank’s armor and barrel with their bare body.

A scene of massacre unfolded.

It was the moment when more than 3,000 high-level players and 200,000 Chinese soldiers deployed on the border between China and North Korea were slaughtered.

* * *

The whole world turned upside down.

Conflict between the Imoogi and the Chinese army.

Annihilation of Chinese rankers and Chinese troops.

The UN has released photos and videos taken by satellite and unmanned aerial photography to governments around the world.

The whole world went into shock.

Of course, at the time of the incident, the ranks of the rankers deployed to the border with China were not very high.

If we had to compare it with the rankers deployed on the Korean border, there was a difference of at least 10 times.

Korea mobilized all the top rankers.

In contrast, China allocated a party of 20 rankers and one buffer.

Of course, it does not ignore the power and buffer of the party of 20 rankers.

However, compared to Korea, which was preparing similarly, the level was definitely lowered.

China has a lot of players.

But to be honest, there were only a lot of heads, but the level wasn’t that high.

China boasts of having thousands of rankers.

However, that is because the ranks are selected by ranking by local government.In terms of world rankings, the number of people who could be called real rankers was quite small compared to the population.

The skill of the rankers selected by the local government based on a sober evaluation was only at the level of Korea’s top high-level players.

In Korea, players who could not even be ranked in the ranks were proud to be ranked.

Of course, since there are so many players, there are also many real-time rankers with skills that are on par with Korean rankers.

The problem is that they are currently concentrated in Beijing.

But even so, the unilateral massacre of thousands of high-level players, including 200,000 soldiers and Chinese local government rankers, was a tremendous shock and horror.

Even if Pyongyang was suddenly attacked, China was well prepared.

But it was wiped out.

It can’t even resist properly.

The scene in which rankers and high-level players harden like stones in one shot of Imoogi’s peer was truly shocking.

That’s 3,000 people.

After completing the 4th job change, 3,000 level 300 players were annihilated without being able to deal with just one monster.

High-level players are capable of hunting hero-grade monsters if they form a party.

Even though there were 3,000 such people, they were unilaterally slaughtered.

China has become a collection of portraits, Korea and Russia are tense, and geographically distant countries are also starting to be strongly wary of the appearance of the Imoogi.

Because there is no law prohibiting the appearance of legendary-grade monsters such as Imoogi in your country.

* * *

‘It’s amazing.’

When Hyunseong read an article about the disaster that took place on the border with China, his mouth widened.

Frankly, he never even imagined that the Chinese border would be opened.

Even if the level is a little lower, isn’t there a lot of brains?

Even if 3,000 people use the skill once, that’s a whopping 3,000 times.

However, they could not even resist properly and were annihilated.

It was because he could not stand the Imoogi’s peer.

‘I have to be careful.’

After watching the battle scene between the Chinese players and the Imoogi, I felt the dangers of the mental skills.

‘I was going to buy the Feral Instinct skill… … .’

It seemed like it had to be delayed one more time.

After purchasing Psychometry, the empty point balance was filled up again.

So I tried to purchase the Feral Instinct Skillbook.

But the moment I saw the video of China’s defeat, I changed my mind.

‘You can’t give up on your first achievement.’

Upon hearing the news, the Korean government began to select Imoogi destroyers in preparation for the battle with the Imoogi.

Of course, it was chosen from among the rankers.

However, even if you are not a ranker, if you have high resistance to mental skills, your chances of being selected are high.

‘What would be better?’

Hyunseong opened the purchase window and started looking at resistance-type skills.

From passive skill books that increase skill resistance in a wide range, to passive skill books that increase the resistance of certain types of attack skills such as fire, thunder, and ice fields… … .

However, what Hyunseong needed now was a passive skill book that would increase his resistance to psychic attacks.

‘This is the best.’

Unyielding Spirit – Heroic Rank

-Passive skill book

-Resistance to mental skills is greatly increased.

– The skill effect is amplified according to the psychic stat.

-Seller: Stuff

-Sales price: 29,999,999,999 pointsThere were only two options.

This is a fairly poor option for a hero-grade skillbook.

But the reviews were pretty good.

This is because the basic psychic skill resistance increase was quite high, and the amplification efficiency linked to the psychic stat was good.

The best purchase reviews even included the content that tanks were essential to learn.

-Passive Skillbook Unyielding Spirit – Would you like to purchase a hero rank? Once purchased, items cannot be refunded or exchanged.

-[Yes No]

I chose yes.

Tuk!

A skillbook with a purple exterior that exudes an old-fashioned atmosphere came into Hyunseong’s hands.

-Passive Skillbook Unyielding Spirit – Do you want to master the hero rank?

-[Yes No]

As soon as I grabbed the skill book, a message came to mind.

Of course I chose yes.

‘I don’t think much has changed… … .’

The passive skill book, it was also a mental attack and defense skill, so I couldn’t feel it at all.

‘You can apply for the test and check it out.’

Verification of unyielding spirit will be done by the Players Association.

Hyunseong headed to the test site.

* * *

“What kind of thing is this that makes people disgraceful?”

A ranker who finished the test came out of the test area with a high voice.

The ranker’s face was as red as red.

He seemed very excited, but he quickly calmed his excitement and exited the test site, perhaps conscious of the waiting people around him.

There were quite a number of people who supported the Imoogi Killing Squad.

There were quite a few applicants among high-level players who were not ranked.

The reason was simple.

first achievement.

Those of the high-level players were aware of the existence of achievements.

Legendary level monster Imoogi raid for the first time in history.

There was no way I couldn’t give up an achievement.

You can get achievements just by participating and getting a spoon.

Of course, there will be others who have applied for other reasons as well.

He may have been greedy for the items the Imoogi would spit out, or he may have applied for honor.

Waiters came in and out.

‘The pass rate for this is considerably lower than expected.’

Although the top players in Korea are taking on the challenge, there were not many successful applicants.

Literally, most of them were eliminated, and successful applicants were coming out at the level of beans sprouting in the drought.

“Mr. Choi Hyunseong.”

Finally, Hyunseong’s name was called.

Hyunseong got up from his seat, held out his player registration card, and put his finger on his fingerprint reader.

“You have been confirmed. You can go inside.”

At the words of the guide, Hyunseong entered the test site.

The inside of the test site was a simple closed room.

There was a mirror in the back room.

‘It’s like the interrogation room you see in a movie.’There are probably people who are staring at this place outside the mirror.

-Are you ready for the test?

Hyunseong nodded at the voice heard through the speaker.

-Then let’s start the test.

-You have been caught in the majesty of the Queen of Mental Intimidation Skills.

-10 seconds into a state of confusion.

-Passive skill Unyielding spirit is activated.

– Perfectly resists the Queen’s Majesty skill.

Messages popped up and disappeared in an instant.

Also a hero level skill.

The rice was well worth it.

“Are you done?”

– Yes, you passed the test.

At the leisurely question of Hyunseong, the speaker announced the acceptance.

“Then let’s go.”

-Thank you.

Hyunseong, who passed the test, left the test site with a light heart.

‘He’s a really unknown person, Mr. Hyunseong.’

Shin Yoon-ah’s eyes, who looked at Hyunseong’s back, moving away through the glass, were colored with deep curiosity.

And a new test partner appeared.

Yoona Shin asked a question in a free voice.

She replied that the opponent was ready, and Shin Yoona activated the Queen’s Dignity skill again.

Fortunately, the Imoogi, which devastated China’s borders, did not go wild any further.

In the international community, there was an argument that an allied force should be formed to deal with the Imoogi.

In response, China conveyed to the international community its position not to worry about the affairs of other countries as it will solve it on its own.

It was kind of a fight for self-esteem.

In this situation, countries that are interested in North Korea’s territory that have lost their owners began to appear one by one.

It has turned into a monster heaven, but it is enough to drive it away.

It was obvious that the underground resources and numerous dimensional gates possessed by the North Korean territory would bring tremendous economic benefits.

In particular, in the case of Japan, it began to carry out all sorts of remedies, such as sending a special envoy to the United States and amending the peace constitution that had failed in the past.

China was also preparing to claim sovereignty over North Korea using the North Koreans and Koreans who had flowed into it.

However, from the perspective of the Korean government, it was absolutely unacceptable.

If other countries are greedy for their own territory, who will stand still?

The territory of the Republic of Korea as stated in the Constitution is the Korean Peninsula and its annexed islands.

From the perspective of the government of the Republic of Korea, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea was merely an armed group illegally occupying the territory of the Republic of Korea.

North Koreans are also objects to be protected by the South Korean government.

The reason North Korean defectors can acquire South Korean citizenship is that North Koreans are also recognized as South Korean citizens under the Constitution.

Of course, this is not the case in reality.

North Korea is a member of the United Nations and officially participates in the Olympics, the World Cup, and the Asian Games.

However, that is just another country’s position, and from South Korea’s point of view, North Korea is only its own territory that must be restored unconditionally.

The Constitution stipulates that the president has a sincere duty for the peaceful reunification of the country.

It means to restore North Korea in a peaceful way.

However, in reality, it was not an easy mission to restore the North Korean region through peaceful means.

Since the first cataclysm, South and North Korea have not had a single physical clash.

Rather, the mood of reconciliation prevailed and they exchanged moderately.They did not just declare the end of the war, but it was as if the war between South Korea and North Korea had ended.

However, just because the relationship between South and North Korea has improved was not enough to talk about unification.

To achieve unification, long-term planning and exchanges of at least several decades were required.

But suddenly things changed.

It was an opportunity to peacefully restore the lost North Korean region.

The North Korean regime and military have collapsed.

North Koreans are suffering from monster attacks.

China and Russia are unable to move quickly because of the dimensional gate blockade and the disposal of weapons in their own countries.

It was the best timing for the Korean government.

Public opinion was also full of aspirations for the restoration of the North Korean region.

The army is already ready.

The extermination squadron, which was made in preparation for the unforeseen Imoogi’s southward descent, has also been completed.

Coordination with allies, including the United States, has also been completed.

After all preparations were made, the government of the Republic of Korea decided to advance north.

* * *

Droooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Army troops, including tanks and armored vehicles, crossed the armistice.

From the sky, fighter jets entered North Korean airspace.

The battleships crossed the coastline and advanced north.

The battle with the monster has begun.

The players and the military teamed up to sweep away the monsters.

South Korea is one of the top 10 military powers in the world.

The level of the players is also quite high.

Normal and rare grades, as well as hero grade monsters, were swept away indiscriminately.

South Korea’s military quickly began to retake North Korean territory.

And Hyunseong was also in that rank.

‘It’s fine.’

Drake, who put Hyunseong on the brink of death, died in vain due to the bombardment of the army and the pincer attack of the rankers.

Hyunseong supported the battle by using ranged skills from the rear.

Even though it was simply providing long-distance support, the points came in.

In the case of medium and low-level monsters, the number of monsters was enormous, and in the case of high-level monsters, there were many points given per animal.

In fact, this was a privilege that only Hyunseong could enjoy.

Because other players were not properly calculated experience due to the 20-level rule.

Hyunseong easily sucked the honey.

Opportunities to hunt comfortably with the help of the military and high-level players were never common.

‘I hope it doesn’t take too long.’

Although the bulk purchase was over, items were still being sold continuously.

Although he piled up an abundance of inventory in the subspace, the longer the monster subjugation was, the more anxious he had to be.

Was it because of Hyunseong’s wind?

The players and the military retaken the territory of North Korea at a very fast pace.

It took less than a week to reach the Yalu River.

China expressed its displeasure with the South Korean army’s advance north, but there was nothing it could realistically do.

This was because they were pushed back for a cause and did not have the means to occupy the North Korean region in reality.

Of course, you don’t know what nonsense you’re going to say once the situation in your country is stable.

This is because he had a history of showing his greed for the Korean Peninsula by carrying out all sorts of remedies, including the Northeast Project.

But China was the only country that liked to see China grow bigger.In the international community, South Korea’s occupation of North Korea was taken for granted.

* * *

“Damn Breads!”

“We need to mobilize the army to wipe it out right now.”

“Why should the Koreans lose the land of the Korean-Chinese who became Chinese people?”

Party leaders in China vomited strong anger.

“But it is difficult right now. First, we need to promote internal stability.”

China is a multi-ethnic country.

However, it is different from the case of voluntarily coming together to form a single nation like the United States.

People who refuse to belong to China and want to be reborn as an independent nation are forcibly suppressed under the guise of a unified China.

That caused a lot of trouble even before the Cataclysm.

After the cataclysm, the country of China was on the verge of being torn into pieces.

However, all the problems were resolved and the stability was finally restored.

This time, however, the second cataclysm came again.

First, we need to solve domestic problems.

That way you can look outside.

“Imoogi must be dealt with on its own.”

“Of course. If the People’s Republic of China gets help from other countries to deal with one monster, it will be a shame that will go down in history.”

“It would be good to mobilize the rankers from Beijing.”

“Isn’t that a bit hasty decision? Wouldn’t it be a big deal if a legendary monster like Imoogi appeared in Beijing?”

“But isn’t it difficult to deal with Imoogi as local government rankers?”

“Are you having a hard time? If we bring all the top rankers of each local government, not just gossips, there is a lot of possibility.”

Party leaders in China have been arguing.

that time… … .

After taking a break, Imoogi resumed activities.

* * *

Aaaaaaaaah!

There was a huge explosion accompanied by an explosion.

This is because the Chinese military has poured out all the modern weapons it possesses to prevent the advance of the Imoogi.

They fired enough shells to turn the acid into powder, but did not do much damage to the Imoogi.

Through one experience, Imoogi recognized the power of the shells and took a defensive posture.

A pitch-black thunderbolt fell like rain, detonating shells in the air.

The shells that escaped the thunderstorm changed their path as the typhoon was wrapped around them.

For the Chinese military, it was a surprise.

The only remaining number were large monster mines that had been hidden in the ground beforehand.

But even that had no effect.

Hold on!

A jet-black thunderbolt struck the ground, and the great monster mine was blown up before the Imoogi arrived.

Whether it was the smell of gunpowder or the use of the detection skill, the location of the large monster mine was amazingly determined.

Now, only the local rankers in China were to be trusted.

High-level players did not mobilize at all.

This is because, from the experience of the last battle, he realized that high-level players below a certain level were of no help.

The top rankers selected from Shenyang, Changchun and Harbin rushed towards the Imugi.

Aaaaaaah!

The roar of the Imoogi exploded again.

The body of some of the rankers became rigid.Just because the level is high doesn’t mean you can’t get caught by the Imoogi’s peers.

The level of resistance to mental skills was more important than the level.

However, the central government has not yet made a decision, and the local government, in an urgent situation, shakes hands to bring the top rankers together.

Wheeik!

The Imoogi’s tail swung like a whip, swept by the rankers who had been caught in the pier and stiff.

Aww!

Rankers who could not get out of the rigid state were hit by the Imoogi’s tail.

Healers continued to heal, but about half of the people did not get up. he died instantly

The rankers were greatly embarrassed by this unrealistic sight.

It was because he did not know that such a large number of casualties would occur before the battle could even begin.

Rankers belonging to the Chinese local government were convinced of victory in their hearts.

They are not the best of the best, but the best selected and selected by each local government.

They believed that they could not be defeated.

However, as soon as the raid started, confidence plummeted.

But the raid had already begun.

Hold on!

Imoogi’s jet-black lightning bolts rained down on the rankers.

The surviving rankers calmly used defense skills and endured.

At the same time, he attacked the Imoogi with all kinds of skills.

Aww! Aww!

However, the rankers’ skills could not reach the Imoogi.

It was because of the storm circling around Imoogi’s body.

As the battle continued, the rankers began to get retired one by one and fall out.

Rankers with the remaining stamina and magical power continued the battle with all their might.

However, it was a mission that was close to impossible to defeat the Imoogi, which could not be helped even in a situation where everyone was intact, with a reduced number of people.

Aaaaaaaaah!

A powerful thunderstorm blasted the rankers.

With that one shot, the game was decided.

Most of the rankers were killed.

The surviving rankers had no choice but to admit defeat.

It was impossible to defeat the Imoogi with less than ten people.

At that moment, Plan B was activated.

The rankers started running towards the other side of the city.

Ranged dealers on the back of tanks or melee dealers used their skills.

Whoops!

A spear of flame burning with blue light flew towards the Imoogi.

Kwajik!
