The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 237: 10th Wave (1)

In the past, Ryu Min had to gather information about the Player Haven executives to take control.

Nickname, habits, speech patterns, behavior, appearance, personality, profession, runes, and so on.

He collected and used all the information he could.

Even his current status as a member of Lostyak was thanks to the information he gathered back then.

For someone like Ryu Min, remembering the nickname of a Player Haven executive wasn’t a difficult task.

‘Soso Mukbang. He was definitely one of the eight Pleceva executives.’

He hadn’t been seen after being expelled from the team in later rounds, but in the early stages, he had certainly been one of the leaders of Player Haven.

‘To think that guy survived until this round.’

Ryu Min wondered if the guy had some skills, but it didn’t matter.

‘I should check him out.’

Ryu Min approached quietly and began reading the man’s thoughts.

Even though the guy had his back turned, just by looking at his head, Ryu Min could dig into his mind.

‘This guy…’

Ryu Min’s expression turned to one of rare surprise.

‘He’s under orders from the Archangel?’

Ryu Min hadn’t expected the Archangel to use such a low-level player without appearing directly.

But what surprised him more was the method.

‘So, if a player is sent to the Celestial Realm, their qualifications can be revoked…?’

This was the first time Ryu Min had learned that it was possible to revoke someone’s qualifications.

He’d never been to the Celestial Realm, nor had he ever faced assassination attempts from the Archangels until this round.

‘If I get warped to the Celestial Realm, not even I will be able to come back.’

He would be stuck, wasting time in the Celestial Realm until he lost his qualifications.

‘Losing qualifications…’

What exactly does it mean to lose qualifications as a player?

Does it mean losing all powers granted by the system, or just being excluded from the survival game?

‘It’s probably the former.’

Judging by the fact that the player would return to being a regular person, it must mean losing all the powers gained as a player.

‘It’s definitely a threatening method. I understand why the Archangels didn’t act directly.’

Ryu Min glared at Soso Mukbang with a wary look.

‘If he holds the book given by the Archangel and says the activation word, he can forcibly teleport me.’

That was why the guy kept glancing at Ryu Min, looking for an opportunity to send him to the Celestial Realm under the Archangel’s orders.

‘He must have been planning to strike during the chaos of the 10th Wave.’

Ryu Min didn’t care what grudge the former Player Haven executive had against him.

‘What matters is that he’s targeting me.’

Now that he knew the method, he could deal with it.

‘Killing him would be simple, but the problem is that he’s a party member.’

There was no way to kill a party member.

The only option was to wait until the round ended, but by then, the guy might strike first.

‘That can’t happen.’

Ryu Min came up with a plan and checked the remaining time.

[Time remaining until the next wave: 00:17:41]

He figured he had enough time to act before the wave began.

“Yamti.”

“Ah, Black Scythe-nim? Do you need something?”

“There’s someone you need to dominate.”

“Who?”

Ryu Min motioned with his eyes toward a specific spot.

“Do you see him? His nickname is Soso Mukbang.”

“Soso Mukbang…?”

Yamti’s eyes widened like a startled rabbit.

“That insignificant guy is still alive?”

“You recognize him?”

“Yes. He used to be an executive with me in Player Haven.”

“Dominate him. Since there’s no room, release Jeffrey from domination.”

“Uh, I don’t think that’s possible.”

“Why?”

Yamti sighed in embarrassment.

“I dominated him once before to extract information from him…”

Once a target is dominated and released, they can’t be dominated again.

In other words, the opportunity had been wasted.

Yamti lowered her head, feeling apologetic.

“…I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine. It was before you met me, after all.”

If domination wasn’t possible, another method would be needed.

A thought came to Ryu Min’s mind.

“You remember the four slaves you dominated earlier?”

“The Messiah members?”

“Right. Give them an order right now. Tell them to…”

After hearing Ryu Min’s explanation, Yamti nodded.

“Should I just suppress him, as you said?”

“Yes. But make sure to do it quietly, so he doesn’t notice. He might try to escape.”

Yamti wondered why she had to suppress Soso Mukbang, but she was a slave.

Whatever her master ordered, she would do.

“Understood. I’ll carry it out immediately.”

***

‘Damn it… I almost had a heart attack.’

Soso Mukbang felt a chill run down his spine after meeting Black Scythe’s eyes.

Just from that brief glance, he felt his body trembling, probably because of the big task ahead.

‘Surely he hasn’t figured it out yet, right?’

He glanced over, and luckily, Black Scythe was looking in another direction.

It seemed he hadn’t been caught.

‘Whew, I almost blew it before even starting.’

In just 10 minutes, the 10th wave would begin.

Just as the Archangel had foretold, he planned to act once Black Scythe and the others were distracted by the chaos.

‘Relax, it’s a simple job. Hide among the crowd, get close, touch him with the book, say the activation word, and it’s done. Simple, right?’

If he could pull that off, he’d send that annoying Black Scythe far away, to a place he could never return from—Heaven.

‘Alright. I’ll move when there’s about 3 minutes left…’

That’s when it happened.

Four men suddenly clung to him like leeches.

“W-what the hell?! Let me go!”
