Insanely-Talented Player

Chapter 9



This truly unexpected statement caused confusion among reporters.

“Is there a fool who uses his guild’s children as meat shields and forces himself to attack the tower from day one just to gain pride and rewards quickly? “Not even a seven-year-old child.”

“Does that mean that Mr. Yoosung will no longer participate in the race with Geomju?”

“I thought everyone knew, but actually, I’m an asshole too.”

“And this race is like two assholes fighting like assholes hoping to be the one who wins. Either way, if I win, I’ll be an asshole. Shouldn’t I win and become an asshole?”

“wealth. Please be more careful with your words and vocabulary...

Yoosung answered without paying attention to those words.

“Is there anyone who can take me to the 5th tier tower?”

There was an SUV gliding across a dark street under a purple night sky. Yoosung glanced out the car window, leaving behind the reporter who was talking non-stop beside him.

Among the rapidly passing cityscape, a towering tower came into the shooting star's field of vision. It is a tier 5 tower with the Roman letter V engraved on it.

“Hey, reporter Park Dae-gi.”

“yes yes?”

After specifying the location of the tier 5 tower, Yoosung asked calmly.

“Can I read news articles on the tablet?”

“I’m here.”

Yoosung took the tablet given by the reporter and scrolled down the page.

At that moment, the news page of the portal site

was opened, and as expected,

more than 70% of the articles were covered with the race between the King of Heroes and the Master of Swords.

— Player Kang Yoo-seong “Geomju is an asshole, and I’m an asshole too.” Never-ending harsh words

— A battle between two self-respecting geniuses! Both Sword Lord and King of Heroes are targeting the top 5 tiers

— Top player Kang Yoo-sung's harsh words UN Secretary-General Kim once again expressed ‘deep concern over the act of ridiculing the player's mission'... Already 23 times this year with concerns - Even if it's rude, it's

too rude “ For

the King of Heroes,

the player’s mission is nothing more than a ridiculous object to be ridiculed, and it is extremely worrying and serious that world peace depends on a narcissistic sociopath full of self-aggrandizement and rudeness. A situation that needs to be accepted... uh. “They’re doing this to act as the Earth Defense Force instead of me.”

And after scanning the endless malicious comments below, Yoosung turned his head.

“Hmm, how did we end up in a world where people who are criticized are living well with both feet up?”

“I don’t know...

“I’ll live a long time too, right?”

“Well, honestly, I don’t think it would be surprising if you live forever.”

After the reporter inadvertently expressed his true feelings, I thought it was a mistake. Yoosung shrugged his shoulders without paying attention.

“Don’t worry, I think so too.”

At the same time, a message came to mind saying I was waiting.

“There is only one thing that will have the glory of victory!”]

[Under the clown monarch’s presiding, the monarchs each begin betting!]

[Many monarchs are racing to bet on you!]

『Please don’t disappoint me. Please stop.”]

[The Frost Lord...]

‘Is this it?’

I was finally able to understand what the sword master believed and entered the 5th tier tower alone.

This race is no longer just about the pride of the two players. As long as the gods who bless the players are watching the competition between the King of Heroes and the Lord of Swords on the first day, it will be Bae Soo-jin, from which neither side can back down.

We calculated what the winning side would gain and what the losing side would lose.

Just then the car came to a screeching halt.

Before I knew it, the tier 5 tower, the curtain of the tower blocking the sky, was casting a shadow that was blacker and darker than the night sky.

[Tower of War]

[5-tier battlefield (Battlefield) format A historical fortress siege and defense await. Number of players allowed to enter. Minimum 1, maximum 2. No stores] [Strategy goal:

Victory for the affiliated force

[Special note: Both players are of the same age. You cannot belong to a force. One player has already entered the tower』

“As expected.”

I could feel it as soon as I saw it.

What greeted him, as if he had been waiting for the meteor from the beginning, was a tower connected to Geomju in mainland China in the distance.

A single-wood bridge that exists for two people as if by fate. The monarchs must have had a hand in this.

Tower of War As its name suggests, an alien world that even the 4th tier tower could not compare to was waiting for the king of heroes.

And beyond that, the swordsman will be waiting for Yooseong.

[Entering the Tower of War...]

It is not a tower full of monsters, nor is it an arena where only a few people fight. So far, it's just a taste.

The real game has begun.

As I entered the Tower of War, I was greeted by a shooting star filled with darkness.

And in the darkness, I heard a very verbose background setting, like a medieval RPG game.

[Continental calendar 000-. The evil empire of Kabalis has launched a war of conquest and has advanced furiously, reaching the fortress of Pallas in the Kingdom of Rodea!] [The

outcome of the historical battle Battle of Pallas is in your hands.]

[The Empire of Kabalis and the Kingdom of Rodea . Fight for the cause you think is right!]

Players will choose either the Empire or the Kingdom to fight in the battle that will take place over the fortress from now on.

However, there was actually no room for Yoosung to make a decision.

[Notice: One player already belongs to the Kabalis Empire!]

[Defeat the invaders of the Kabalis Empire and protect the Kingdom of Rhodea!]

Because the sword lord has already joined the empire.

“Oh my god. “Communists are fighting for imperialism.”

But Yoosung didn’t really care. Even if he could make a decision before the sword lord, he originally planned to fight on the side of the Kingdom of Rhodea.

Otherwise, it was not a sense of justice to confront the evil empire and crush their ambitions.

‘Because the reward is better this way.'

The world of towers is not equal. But at the same time, it's not unfair.

The more unfavorable and low the odds of winning, the greater the reward when you win.

As the towers progressed, multiple players faced each other in one tower, and players had to constantly make decisions about which side to fight for and for what. Every time that happened, Yoosung also made a decision.

The one with better rewards.

That was it. No matter how disadvantageous and hopeless it seemed, it was no exception.

[Move to the inner city of Fortress Pallas in the Kingdom of Rodea...]

At the same time, the darkness disappeared and light swept through.

“It’s a player. A player has appeared!”

“Oh, I never thought the Lord would be looking down on us...!”

“—The Visitor has come to save us!”

The place where Yoosung was standing was a room filled with knights ready for battle within the walls of Fortress Pallas. Looking at the various objects and maps laid out on the wooden carving table, it looked like a strategy meeting room. That too would be a situation where the battle is just around the corner.

It's not a day or two thing. It didn't take long to figure out the situation.

“Who is in charge here?”

Yooseong asked without any hesitation. There was no time to look around in confusion and panic. Then the expressions of the knights stiffened.

“You are so cruel, my intruder!”

Afterwards, a loud shout rang out among the knights. When Yooseong turned his head, a large man was there, staggering around as if his armor was about to burst.

“Why can’t you follow the royal rules in front of the honorable commander of the defense of Fort Pallas, the honorable collateral of the royal family of Rodea and the 12th head of the Duchamp family of the Marquis Duchamp, no matter how much you call yourself an ‘invitee’?” “The number and type of defense

troops And the numbers on the siege side.”

“What?”

“How many soldiers here are of each type?”

“There are 5,000 conscripted infantrymen from serfs, and among them, the number of those who know how to use a bow is about 900...

“Sir Galla!”

A knight opened his mouth on behalf of the large garrison commander, but a shout came back. The knight quickly closed his mouth, and Yoosung looked at him and asked back.

“Look here. Captain. Do you think you will win this battle?”

“Although we are inferior to our kingdom’s military forces in terms of material power, there is no limit to our mental power! The men of the Kingdom of Rhodea have endless mental power, so they can win against ten times the imperial army...”

Puck!

As in the previous article, Duchamp's Muta did not finish his sentence.

“Kuh keuhuh!”

Before that, Yoosung's fist slammed into the garrison commander's breast armor, and the armor shattered. The armor shattered and Muta fell down, clutching his stomach. There was astonishment on the knights' faces at that sight.

“From now on, I am the leader here. “Does anyone have any objections?”

“How dare you attack the defense captain Duchamp’s unhittable ball…

Punch! Once again, the breastplate shattered and there was a gasping sound.

“Yes, I understand. Another friend who has an objection?”

Yoosung asked again. The knights in the strategy conference room held their breath and silence fell. “

Good. With this, the main enemy of the soldiers has been eliminated. Next is the knight there.”

“Yes, yes!”

Immediately Yoosung continued,

“Do you want to win? Tie these guys up and throw them somewhere until the battle is over.”

.......

The knight swallowed his breath in confusion, but his hesitation did not last long.

“I will ask again. The number and type of defenders. And the number of people in the empire.”

Sir Gala answered and Yooseong nodded. It was a gap that could be said to be hopeless, both qualitatively and quantitatively. This is not the only player that is there. Although they do not seem to know that fact yet.

Table After looking at the map placed above and hearing some explanations, Yoosung continued walking.

“Then, let’s take a look at the fortress for a while.”

.Thank goodness there is no wizard.'

Fortunately, there were no wizards or magic in this world. It was literally the era of knights and castles where swords and spears clashed. The

castle was high and there was no bastion where wizards or cannons could fire. The fortification style excludes the existence of siege magic or artillery.

‘Fortunately, Sword Master is not a firepower type player.'

I thought it was a hopeless gap, but the more information I got, the more the situation turned out to be not as bad as I thought.

Nevertheless, the actual view from the top of the fortress was not like that.

Boom, boom, drum.

The sound of drums was echoing.

It filled the horizon. What was filling up was literally a pitch-black army.

Imperial flags waving as if the bannermen were showing off, countless siege weapons, and even soldiers who were sobbing and ready to devour this fortress at any moment. No matter how calmly I tried to think about it

, It is a scene that is bound to be overwhelming. Not to mention the pressure the soldiers here will feel. It should have been so.

“It’s the player!”

“The visitor has appeared for our kingdom of Rhodea...!”

An undefeated warrior who leads an unwinnable battle to victory, an apostle who executes the will of God, a warrior of justice, and a monster. Although the way each world accepts the player is slightly different, the gist is the same: a visitor from another world with powers that go far beyond common sense

.

“The morale of the soldiers seems to skyrocket after hearing the news that the player has arrived.”

“Oh, that’s right. They also tell me that they eliminated the soldiers’ main enemy.”

“In addition, Duke Muta of Duchamp has been dismissed as the commander of the defense! The player will lead you directly!”

Lord Gala shouted again, following Yooseong’s words. A murmur arose among the soldiers again.

“The fat guy will be kicked out and you will take charge of us!”

“I guess God really cares about us!”

Every time Yooseong walked around the fortress for inspection and morale-boosting purposes, the expressions on the soldiers' faces came to life everywhere.

It was right then.

thud.

The ground began to tremble as if an earthquake had occurred. It wasn't that difficult to understand its meaning.

“The Empire is attacking...!”

Before I knew it, the seven-hocked wave that filled the horizon was rushing towards the fortress.

The battle has begun.

Waves of waves were coming from all directions.

Enemies to defeat. It was not an easily recognizable monster like an orc or an imp. But nothing changed.

Siege ladders and hooks were draped over the castle from all directions. The soldiers of the empire were literally crashing like waves crashing against the embankment. At the same time, arrows and molten metal were poured and stones were dropped to stop them.

Screams and shouts were mixed together, and the sound of iron clashing against iron was heard.

Yoosung was there too.

Above the castle, Yoosung stretched out his arms. As the cold magic swirled, a frost sword took shape in his hand. I just raised my head.

The sword was swung, and a storm of cold air swirled.

A literal magic that cannot be understood with the common sense of this world.

The sound stopped for a moment. Actually it was only a moment. Immediately after seeing the ‘magic' unleashed by the shooting star, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Rhodea became inspired and began to shout.

The breath of ice engulfed the imperial soldiers filling up the walls below. The flesh and bones of the enemy soldiers were frozen in the swirling cold. Yoosung stretched out his arms again.

Taang!

An arrow of ice struck, and then a monster rose from beneath Yoo Seong's feet.

“Let's eat.”

It was the shadow beast Black.

A beast made of darkness jumped down the castle wall. Among the endless crowd of imperial soldiers, the shadow's flesh and bones wriggled like a separate creature.

Sigh!

Jet-black skewers sprouted from the black cat’s body all at once. All at once, like hedgehogs spewing out thorns among the imperial soldiers rushing in like an ebbing tide.

Phew!

An indescribable hell unfolded.

After showing off his skills, Yoosung adjusted the hilt of his sword and remained silent.

Showing off the player's presence as soon as the battle begins. In a world without magic, the unusual abilities a player shows can itself drive a wedge into the battlefield.

An incomprehensible powerhouse that people in this world cannot understand. The morale of the Kingdom of Rhodea soared to no end knowing that the strong man was fighting for them.

In contrast, the Kabalis Empire side was not like that. The sword lord who was supposed to fight for them was nowhere to be seen, and fear was spreading like a plague among the soldiers.

Despite this, the empire's offensive did not stop. No, I couldn't stop.

No one dares to approach under the castle walls where the shadow beasts and shooting stars are. However, there was not just one wall they had to attack.

‘That's how you come out.'

The act of a player showing off his or her presence is a double-edged sword. At the same time as active. This is no different from obediently exposing your location to hostile players in the battlefield.

If a player knocks down a player from the tower, the player is thrown out of the tower and the strategy is a failure.

——The tower can kill the player, but the player cannot kill the player inside the tower.

‘At least in the current tier.'

Nevertheless, losing this match would be a humiliation worse than death for both of them.

Because he knew the meaning, the Geomju chose to remain silent. To be silent like a submarine and wait for the right moment.

A mountain of corpses spread out beneath the castle walls in the distance. And weapons were seen in proportion to the number of corpses. When Yoosung saw that, he had a hunch: The time had come.

“What is that...?”

“The swords are moving as they please!”

An immeasurable number of swords were already greeting their new master.

Hundreds of swords floated like living creatures and covered the sky.

After the silence of the thousand swords, the submarine finally appeared. It moved, and

torpedoes of blades began to rain down.
