SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 395

Ranking Match – Final (2)

The Road’s best ranking match that the whole world is watching.

This competition, which is held as an open tournament, basically meant to rank users, but also had an important in-game element.

That’s ‘reputation’.

I’m not talking about reputation values ​​applied to NPCs.

An individual’s influence is determined by the results of today and tomorrow.

Their fighting style, job combination, and equipment settings will be trendy, and there may be a lot of fan clubs and guild applicants.

‘So the apostles will have no choice but to have more children.’

And most importantly, in the case of apostles, the number of followers of the god they worship can increase.

Then, the number of apostles could be increased, and the range of power that those who attained divine status could influence on earth and in heaven would be larger.

‘Are you still hiding it?’

So, they would no longer be able to hide their strength and their last move.

If he hides his number in preparation for Rokhan and then loses outrageously, the ranking is the ranking, and the influence of the god who made him an apostle will also fall poorly.

Especially if the other party was also a person who received the throne of an apostle.

If the apostles of two gods fight and one wins, which side will people go to?

There would be no way they could not make that natural inference, so they would have no choice but to show their strength.

From the round of 32, the atmosphere has already started to heat up.

“Now it’s worth a look.”

After Rokhan set the mood, things went as he wanted.

The apostles immediately following him stared at him, but as they were defeated by one of the surprise moves, the expressions of the others became determined.

It’s unclear whether even if he hid his power anyway, it would work for Lokan.

And most of the opponents were ‘Apostles’ just like you.

Even if you hide your power, you can win unconditionally, so there were a lot of guys who showed their power openly from the start like Sorakan.

After all, doesn’t a full recovery happen every time the game is over?

He fought with no regrets and showed his everything without any reason.

“That… … .”

As Lokan watched the exciting round of 32 matches, he thought and stroked his chin.

They were the same apostles, but they sensed a difference between them.

It was just the existence of the item.

They came with their own set of equipment, but some had special equipment they had never seen, such as Sorakan’s wand.

And there was a clear difference in power between them.

“Is it a new thing?”

It is not an exaggeration to say that the match depends on the existence or nonexistence of the object.

An item that God gave directly to his apostles.

It was clear that its value would be at least comparable to that of a heavenly god or a demon god, or a set of weapons of the storm.

It means set item or high-class equipment.“If I ask you to make an item bread, won’t you?”

Slowly, I got greedy and thought about suggesting that we put on our own new equipment and fight, but the opponent couldn’t accept it.

You might think that you have your own odds of winning, but it is also clear that the probability of losing is overwhelmingly high.

“I hope it ends sooner.”

Rokhan’s eyes gleamed like snakes, thinking up to that point.

I looked at the item information of the Devil’s Tooth Belt again.

“There are no drop protection or non-tradable options, right?”

There were no options attached to the options that said they were dead and could not be traded.

If so, would it be possible to obtain it in some way?

Even if it was too much to use directly, it seemed that it would be able to do a lot of power-up by offering it as a sacrifice for the Demon’s Tooth Belt.

While he was shining such a ferocious gaze, the turn turned and Rokan’s game order came back.

“surrender! Surrender!”

“… … .”

The opponent I met in the round of 16 was none other than Hamel.

Mitty, who came out with him, was eliminated during yesterday’s match, but Hamel, as an apostle with the armor of a heavenly god, persistently survived and climbed up to this point.

Even so, the guy who used to be called the Holy Cockroach became an apostle of the heavenly gods and gave more powerful recovery, defense, and reinforcement buffs, so I could guess how absurd the opponents were and how hot they must have been.

But as soon as he saw Rokhan’s face, he cried out for surrender.

Fearing that Rokan might not even be able to surrender, he ran away from the beginning and declared surrender in the corner.

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”

The crowd booed. I was expecting a hot match once again, but surrender without even fighting?

It wasn’t that he couldn’t understand it as his opponent was Lokan, but it looked like it was leaking.

[Winner: Lokan, King of Violence]

But it has already happened.

The system declared the victory for Lokan, and the first match of the round of 16 ended in less than a second.

After that, another fierce battle ensued. In the meantime, in fact, there have been no cases similar to Lokan.

If you meet or meet with the same guild member, one side will surrender by surrendering instead of giving away information to others.

But it’s already the round of 16. It was impossible to produce a large number of strong men from one guild, so both the guild and the country were filled with different people. They bumped into each other with all their might.

[Winner: Lokan, King of Violence]

Then, in the last quarterfinal match of the day, Lokan easily won.

I couldn’t stop it if I ran and drew the Battle Ax down as if to show the difference in class, without using anything like a raging wind.

Even if he barely reacted and tried to block it with a scourge, his posture collapsed due to the tremendous force, and Lokan only trampled and immobilized the opponent, then inflicted a merciless slash.

Another apostle fell mercilessly and Rokan advanced to the semifinals.

Even the quarterfinals and finals were the next day.

“Ah, finally.”

As soon as the quarterfinal match was over, he spurred out of the arena and devoted himself to hunting, but his experience was not good enough.

It was due to an astronomical jump in the experience required per level up as it approached level 450.

I went all-in on hunting almost all night, but I had to catch it high to get about 10% of the experience.

Lokan, who returned to the village with a frustrated heart, was greeted with good news.

[His physical stabilization is over.][You can use Song of Fire and Ice.]

The stabilization of the body is completely finished.

The power of the two poles completely melted into Rokan’s body, waiting for an opportunity to coexist and show off their power.

“I’m running out of time.”

If I had had a little more time, I would have used this ability to scan the hunting grounds.

Unfortunately, it was time to log out.

He slept a little early, and after hunting all the time, he thought about making it to the finals in the ranking match, but he had a more important schedule, so he adjusted the access time.

It was also because even without writing a song of fire and ice, it was at a level that could easily be beaten.

Lokan, who once again looked at the title effect and skill effect, signed out with a promise for tomorrow, and took a deep breath until the fourth round of the rankings began.

***

[The first match of the quarterfinals in the ranking match. King of Violence Rokhan vs Golden Blind Cashman.]

“Cashman?”

Lokan awoke the next day and leisurely connected to The Road. Anyway, it was difficult for him to go out hunting until the quarterfinals started, so he had plenty of room.

And he checked his own opponent, which he had never thought of.

The strongest smart user Cashman.

Hyeonji, who poured at least billions on The Road alone.

He appeared in the quarterfinals.

“Is it like this?”

He was probably right on his own, as no one else remembered him using the ID of Cash Man to reach a high level except him.

But was it this skill? It was absurdly good to use the equipment with the sage, but the control was a bit immature, so wasn’t it just at the level of an intermediate strongman?

No matter how new the heavenly background appeared, the level of equipment increased, but it was difficult to believe that he was standing here only with pure equipment.

Perhaps he is also an apostle of something.

“Hmm, I need to sleep more.”

But that’s it.

Lokan stayed in the waiting room and closed his eyes again. This is because, when you fall asleep in the game, the fatigue of reality is relieved a little more.

When the ranking match was over, he stocked up as much as he could to run fast again.

[Goes to the arena after 5 seconds. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.]

After a while, Lokan opened his eyes again, about 20 seconds before he was moved to the arena.

Everyone cheered for Lokan, who appeared in the arena with a sleepy face, and the opponent was terrified.

“Smile?”

Lokan, who looked around him without any expression as usual, found a smile on the corner of his opponent’s lips.

How dare a cashman smile at himself, did he even go crazy?

As soon as I got ready by breaking my body, the host announced the start of the match.“Heh heh heh! Golden Scales!”

“… … ?”

With the start of the match, Cashman activated one skill.

A golden scale with a grand name.

A gigantic golden scale fell down in the middle of the arena.

“Do something odd. Come bombardment.”

Shoo… … .

You can’t leave it the way you want it.

Lokan shook off the battle ax as if it was bothering him, and emitted a large bundle of auras.

But Aura just passed through the scales.

In the first place, the golden scale is not an attackable target.

“Power: Golden Judgment!”

The moment Lokan frowned as if he was annoyed, Cash Man shouted once more and activated his proprietary skill using the golden scales.

When Lokan, who saw the golden energy shining around him, was complacent that he seemed to have seen it, a notification that showed the effect of the skill appeared.

[Golden scales trigger Golden Judgment.][Golden scales measure the object’s wealth.][Wealth is power. Grants a buff equal to the difference to those with more gold or coins.]

It was the technology used by the best Hyeonjil, who said he couldn’t even guess the actual amount.

A conditional special buff ability that measures the opponent’s own wealth and obtains a strengthening effect equal to the difference. The power of the golden god was expressed through the hands of the apostle Cashman.

[Golden scales grant you mysterious powers.]

“… … ?”

But he didn’t know. The fact that no matter how many flying and crawling dragons he used, compared to Rokhan’s wealth, he couldn’t even reach his feet.

The amount Lokan has in the inventory is different from the Cashman in units since the collection has just been completed.

The gap between the gold and coins, which differed by dozens of times, was widened beyond comparison.

It was a different way of strengthening from becoming a Majesty Master by raising the level. It just feels like the level has been buffed several times without touching the level.

“I don’t know what it is, but I’ll write it well.”

wiggle. Quang!

It wasn’t just a hit. Cashman was crushed by the battle ax that was lightly thrown like a catch ball.

It was crushed into a rice cake by the unstoppable power without even being cut by the sharp axe.

[Winner: Lokan, King of Violence]

The quarterfinals also ended so easily that it was futile.

And another quarter-final was held.

The winner was on the final stage with Lokan.

“… … Fight!”

“Wow!

A strange incident occurred with a shout announcing the start of the confrontation.
