Chapter 33 A small ball fired by Jaeyoung (1)
A lich and a group of high-ranking undead suddenly appeared. Their attack in the middle of the night brought great confusion to the estate of the Duke of Bergen.
“Stop! If we are deprived of this far, we will be completely isolated!”
“Where the hell did Duke Go go!”
“Ughhhhhh. help me.”
Undead popping up from everywhere in the castle. Because they were preparing for war, the army the duke had built was quite strong, but those who could already be called heads had turned into loyal undead led by Jaeyoung, and their resistance was soon suppressed.
“Kids, take it easy and destroy everything.”
“Geuuuuuu”
tight. bang. coogu palace.
At Jaeyoung's words, the good undead go around destroying property. The Undead, which had increased enormously while dealing with the Duke of Verhen's army, quickly turned the Duke of Verhen's territory into ruins.
[The territory of the Duke of Bergen is in great confusion.]
[The production function is reduced by 85% and the military power is reduced by 98%.]
[The feared people of the territory begin to leave.
]
“We are all going to die!”
“help me! I want to run away!”
Regardless of whether it was a guard or a knight, everyone ran away leaving their weapons behind. Looking at the scene, Jaeyoung hummed.
[A phenomenal achievement. You single-handedly destroyed the territory of the Duke of Bergen.]
[You have obtained the title Vicious Necromancer.] [
The secret plan of the Duke of Bergen has completely failed.]
[ You have obtained a probability of 14000.]
Confused.”
It was obviously a rich and prosperous manor with a noisy atmosphere until the afternoon, but it turned into a den of the undead overflowing with skeletons and zombies overnight. As a result, users including general NPCs could not keep their mouths shut in absurdity.
“What is it all of a sudden...?”
“Geuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...”
One user who went to the general store where he stopped every day to sell japtem and saw that a group of ghouls making bizarre cries greeted him. stood
“Goooooooo!”
And the ghouls approaching him as if they were aiming for prey. He murmured as he felt death from the sharp claws wielded by the ghoul.
“Haha... fuck.”
Chew.
A user who didn't even get hit by a few hits, but instantly fell into a gray light. Seeing the gray bodies of players on the floor, Jaeyoung exclaimed without feeling guilty.
“Rise of the Dead.”
Wood deuddeuk-
“Geu uh uh uh...”
The user who had logged in with a bright face until just now. He started walking down the street as a ghoul and steadily smashing things he could see around him.
“Hey... Is it good to be a necromancer like this? If I had known this would happen, I would have played as a necromancer.”
one-man corps.
If only the corpse and mana were supported, the ability to control the undead without limit. Jae-young, who personally experienced the tremendous efficiency in a large-scale war, licked his lips as if he was really sorry.
“How much probability has been consumed so far?”
Although it is a powerful power, it is not Jae-young's own power, but borrowed power. That's why the more he tried to overdo it, the more he could be placed in a situation where he would consume more probabilities than he had acquired by assassinating the duke.
“Um... Wait a minute. Let's see... The duke was killed, the entire army was disbanded, the territory was half destroyed... no, this was completely destroyed... considering the people who died...
” Tan muttered while scribbling as if calculating something. He thought about it for a while, and then he said to Jaeyoung with a twinkle in his eyes.
“It will be roughly 42284 probabilities. Hogang... No, customer.”
Tan, with a smile on his face, holds out his hands as if asking for a quick answer. Jaeyoung glared at Tan and asked.
“You just saw me and called me Hogang.”
“Um... did I? Haven't you ever?”
Tan smiles innocently, as if saying ‘Satan doesn't know anything!' with bright eyes. However, Jaeyoung shook his head firmly.
“no. It's too expensive. Cut it down a bit.”
Tan's expression distorted in an instant at Jae-young's request to be shaved. He sighed and touched like a counselor dealing with the truth.
“No customer. Do you know what kind of onion market this is? This place is strictly a reconnaissance system! If you use as much force as you need, you have to make the right probability.”
“You are a good customer. You should give me a special discount. Give me a service coupon or something.”
“Huh... I think that makes sense now...”
“If you don’t pay the price, you’ll only deal with Cheon-gye from now on?”
“...40,000!”
“35000.”
“39990.”
“36000.”
“39980...?”
“...Are you calling that a negotiation?”
Shot down the price by what 10 units. Seeing this, Jaeyoung said sternly, not being ridiculous.
“36500. I will never give you more than that.”
“Turn it off... Ah! okay. 36500! Do it.”
At that, Jaeyoung and Tan held hands. Then, the sticky power of darkness quickly escaped from the body. At the same time, as if it had never happened, Jaeyoung's body, which was left with nothing but a skeleton, began to return to its normal human form, and many of the undead instantly returned to normal corpses and skeletons.
[Skill skill has ended.]
[Accounting for the duration and player's actions begins.]
[Probability 36500 consumed.]
[Negotiation with the devil has been successfully completed.]
[Transcendent achievement. Became the first human race to devour the Demon King.]
[The title Demon King has also been acquired.] [
Negotiation skill proficiency increases significantly.]
[Negotiation skill increases to 7 ranks.]
“...This is it. what is it?”
I don't know how great this is that the negotiation skill, which used to be F rank, rises vertically to rank 7 and is even given a special title, but it must have been a great thing when I looked at it objectively.
“Ah-oh! If that's the case, it's totally worth it! This is the only thing you get after all this fuss?”
Tan keeps grumbling as if he is very unsatisfied with the deal. Jaeyoung looked around and pretended not to hear what Tan kept grumbling about.
“First of all... I think things are going to get very noisy from now on, so I’m going to take a quiet dive.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I’m going to be away for a while, so take care of yourself and stay calm.”
Says the connection is closed. El tilted his head, but Tan waved his hand as if he was used to it.
“okay. I've said it before, but without you, we can't do anything?”
“log out.”
Jae-young turns translucent with the starter word for ending the connection. The last scenery he saw before he disconnected was the estate of the Duke of Bergen, whose surroundings had completely turned into ruins.
* * *
A large-scale air raid by the undead occurred in the territory of the Duke of Bergen. And as a result, rumors about the thoroughly destroyed territory quickly spread to users through Arfandia.
-trot. Destroyed by the undead in the territory of the Duke of Bergen in the Maroon Kingdom.
- A necromancer who commanded the undead. A blitz analysis of his identity!
- Appearance of special monsters for another main scenario?
Provocative news articles that come up quickly as if competing soon after. The reaction of people who saw these articles was absurd itself.
-what? Are you starting again?
-The beginners' village was also destroyed, and the developers seem to have heard something interesting.
- Fuck this!!!! Do a little bit!!!!!! dead again!!!!!
-Wow... I'm dead too, but the undead are really strong, right? Totally out of balance.
- But what really happened? A special monster for a real event?
People who admire the insane management skills of a game company that gets rid of the village when they are bored to the extreme of users who accidentally died while in the estate of the Duke of Verhen. And while the reactions of people expecting a large-scale event were mixed together, the employees of Arcadia Co., Ltd. were again on fire.
“What is this situation! Why was the estate of the Duke of Bergen destroyed again!”
bang.
A conference room where team leaders and department heads from all departments are gathered together. Inside, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han let out a roar, unable to hold back his anger. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't understand how long it had been since the novice village was gone and that something like this would happen again.
“I looked at the data log... 6 hours ago in real time, around 1:00 am, an intruder broke into the home of the Duke of Bergen.”
“intruder?”
“yes. So we checked it out... and something is wrong.”
Seeing the face of the head of the data analysis team looking confused, executive director Kwon Myung-han hurriedly identified the culprit behind all these incidents written in the report. Then, he asked with a similar expression to the team leader.
“Legion of Death Lich Argamer...? What kind of dog is this again!”
Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, who was flipping through the reports while fluttering, jumped up from his seat and shouted, as if he couldn't hold back his anger.
“This is a monster that existed in the setting hundreds of years ago! Have we ever developed a guy like this? Why the hell are monsters that we don't even know come out and play around like this!”
“That's also us...”
The settings that were hidden in the already completed game that they had never made. Because of the accidents that occurred due to those settings, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han was gradually losing his composure.
Superficially or in terms of the operating company, they are merely subcontractors of the original developer. It wasn't all their intention, but ordinary users who didn't know that were swearing excitedly.
-From my point of view, the developers here are sadistic perverts who just like to tease.
-You guys aren't operators, you're just town breakers, you damn bastards.
-You guys are worse than the nukes.
-Are you deliberately wasting time killing users for fear of lack of content? Be honest.
Arfandia's user bulletin board is already blazing hot. Seeing the overflowing with cursing at the company and management, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han shuddered.
“check it! From now on, don’t overlook anything related to the Duke of Bergen, and analyze all the recorded data logs!”
Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han, who even shows determination as if declaring war.
He thought that this should not happen any more. A situation where users are losing trust in game companies. Of course, there were people who thought it was funny, but most of them reacted coldly, saying, ‘Is this an operation?'
“No one thinks of leaving work on time until they come with me with a clear reason for this. okay?”
Everyone in the meeting room turned pale at the proclamation of Kwon Geun-han to go to the end, but in the end, they had no choice but to come out without expressing any objection.
* * *
When Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han is running around. Somewhere on the continent of Arcadia, there were people who were interested in this matter.
“Heh heh.... What made you come all this way so early in the morning?”
An old man with a benevolent impression, dressed in pure white. He asked, looking at the beautiful girl standing in front of him with tired but dizzy eyes, probably just woken up.
“I saw the revelation... somewhere on the continent of Arcadia... there must have been a tremendous amount of dark energy emerging.”
A little girl who looks terrified. The old man's expression changed at her words. He believed her words more seriously than anyone else.
“Hmm.... Wasn’t there anything you could know about the place? Even the smallest clue is fine.”
In response to that question, a girl holding her head frowning as if thinking about something. Then, as if squeezing out the memory, he said with difficulty.
“Surely... the dying man... cried out for the last time. It's the Duke of Bergen...”
The girl cried as if she was having a nightmare. As if feeling the pain himself, the old man said while gently stroking the woman who was trembling with fear.
“It's okay. Do not be afraid. Our glorious God has warned us through you. Everything is just an illusion... You are safe.”
When the old man was stroking and comforting her for a short while. Someone entered cautiously and said politely to the old man and the girl.
“His Holiness the Pope and the holy woman, Egudiel, the Holy Knight, have come as they have been called.”
Egudiel, the highest ranking holy knight who was summoned by the pope from early morning. As he prostrated himself awaiting orders, the old man looked at him and said,
“The saintess has received a revelation. Thoroughly investigate who the Duke of Bergen is and what happened to him, and find traces of darkness.”
Holy Empire Saint.
Like Arcadia's staff, they began to take an interest in the work of the Duke of Bergen.
