The Return of the Legendary All-Master

Chapter 194



Chapter 194

The whole world was thrown into chaos.

“Huh? My gun’s gone!”

“Shit… What the hell? They said all the grenades and ammo in the supply depot are gone too?”

“Emergency! The tanks have disappeared!”

“The Air Force is in chaos too! They say everything, including fighter jets, has vanished all at once!”

Especially the military.

With the disappearance of all firearms, a serious problem arose in military power, making it impossible to even deploy troops to hunt monsters.

“Damn it… What the hell is going on?”

Commander Shin Pil-Ho pressed his throbbing head.

Monsters appearing all over the world.

The government had requested the military to deploy, but with the disappearance of all firearms, they were in no condition to do so.

‘The countdown in the sky was real…’

The talk about the world ending when the countdown reached zero.

Shin Pil-Ho had dismissed it as nonsense and hadn’t paid much attention to it.

But as soon as the countdown reached zero, a serious problem occurred, and he had no choice but to acknowledge the countdown.

“Commander!”

At that moment, Operations Director Lee Gi-Taek visited the commander’s office.

“What is it?”

“There’s a change happening among the soldiers and officers.”

“…Change? Explain it clearly.”

“Do you know the game called New World?”

“How could I not? But why are you suddenly talking about a game?”

It was a famous game that even he, the commander, had played.

Although he had quit at level 33, he couldn’t deny the technological prowess of New World.

But why was he bringing up a game in this situation?

Shin Pil-Ho frowned.

Lee Gi-Taek then uttered shocking words.

“Yes. They say they can use the system from New World.”

“…What do you mean?”

Use the game system in reality?

“Shout ‘inventory’ right now!”

“Inventory?”

Then, an inventory appeared in front of Shin Pil-Ho’s eyes.

It was quite meager since he had quit at level 33, but it was definitely the same inventory from when he played New World.

Shin Pil-Ho’s eyes widened.

Seeing his reaction, Lee Gi-Taek continued his explanation.

“The officers and soldiers who played New World are using skills from the game!”

“Is that true?!”

“Yes. Go outside and see for yourself.”

Shin Pil-Ho hurriedly got up from his seat.

He left the commander’s office and looked at the training ground outside.

“Kill them all!”

“We don’t need guns!”

“I have skills!”

There, the officers were fighting off the monsters.

Those who had devoted themselves to New World after work.

The officers, who had been called game addicts, were now playing the role of heroes.

“What the…”

***

At the same time.

The whole world was engulfed in chaos.

“Whoa, shit… Is this for real?”

“What’s going on… This is unbelievable.”

The users who had enjoyed New World were bewildered by the power that had come to reality, and soon they started hunting the monsters sweeping the streets little by little.

Those who were accustomed to the vivid battles of virtual reality adapted quickly.

Also, the community World Com was on the verge of exploding.

[What is this?]

– Seriously, monsters are everywhere…

– Wait, was the countdown about this?

– This is freaking creepy, what’s going on?

– What the hell are the New World headquarters doing?

– Wow… I’m speechless…

– This is not the time to be happy… Is this even possible?

– Seriously… Why are New World monsters appearing?

Countless people expressed their doubts.

A virtual reality game.

New World had become reality.

[Dungeons are opening.]

[Clear them within the time limit.]

To make matters worse, dungeons were also opening.

Dungeons opened in each region.

The dungeon portals were bigger than anything they had seen in New World.

“Crazy… What is that?”

Kim Bong-Goo’s older sister, Kim Bong-Ja, hurriedly picked up her smartphone and called someone.

The call connected shortly after.

[Yeah, sis.]

“Bong-Goo! Where are you right now!”

[I’m at a friend’s house right now. What’s the situation there?]

“You told me to stay home, so I did… What are all those things?”

[Monsters.]

“Monsters?”

[Yeah. Monsters from New World.]

“What the…”

Unlike Kim Bong-Goo, Kim Bong-Ja had never played New World.

Because she wasn’t interested in games.

[Anyway, stay home. Don’t go outside.]

“O-Okay… What about you?”

[I’m going to do some broadcasting. Contact as many people as you can and tell them to watch YouTube.]

“What…? You’re going to broadcast in this situation? Are you crazy?!”

[No time to explain. The channel name is HoneyTube! I’m going to broadcast clearing dungeons, so hurry!]

The call ended just like that.

***

The dungeons opened.

“Have you contacted our families?”

“Yes. They seem to be okay.”

“It’s a good thing we told them to stay home, as Brother said.”

Ha-Jin and Bong-Goo nodded.

Their families were safe.

They were originally far from the dungeon, so no high-level monsters appeared, and they lived in an area where the damage wasn’t that severe.

“Okay. Then let’s go.”

There was no entry restriction for the dungeons that opened simultaneously.

They just had to clear them within the time limit.

Jeong-Hoon, Ha-Jin, and Bong-Goo came out of the house.

Their mother stayed hidden in the house, aiming at the monsters nearby.

Bang!

The bullet fired by his mother pierced the head of a Black King Tiger in front of her.

Then, the other Black King Tigers roaming the streets all looked in the direction of the sound and started running towards them.

“So they’re Black King Tigers.”

Ha-Jin grinned and summoned his soldiers.

Ha-Jin’s soldiers, who had completed their 3rd class advancement, started slaughtering the Black King Tigers.

“Brother! I think the dungeon will be easy too!”

The monsters lurking near the dungeon were just Black King Tigers.

Jeong-Hoon smiled bitterly.

These guys were just small fries.

Of course, if he hadn’t been obsessed with growth after his regression, he wouldn’t have been able to handle even these small fries.

They approached the dungeon portal.

Near the portal, four men in their early 20s were watching.

The corpses of Black King Tigers were visible in the distance.

It seemed they had made their way here by defeating those Black King Tigers.

“Wow… This is just unbelievable…”

“Crazy… It’s a real dungeon.”

They were looking at the portal with shocked faces.

The dungeons they had entered countless times in New World.

Those dungeons were now appearing right in front of them in reality.

However, no one dared to enter the dungeon recklessly.

“The portal is too big…”

“What if we die if we enter carelessly?”

“What happens if we die…?”

What happens?

You say goodbye to this world, that’s what.

Jeong-Hoon passed them and stood in front of the portal.

[Lv. 150 ???]

Only the level of the dungeon was displayed.

‘If I remember correctly, this is a trap.’

Level 150 dungeons scattered all over the world.

Since it was level 150, many could challenge it.

Because of that, there were countless people who died after entering, relying only on their levels.

‘And then problems arise.’

Additional penalties.

It could cause all sorts of natural disasters, like additional earthquakes or tsunamis.

Moreover, each dungeon had a different time limit, and if penalties occurred consecutively, 1% of the entire population would die.

“Ha-Jin, are you ready?”

“Okay. Done!”

The broadcast setup was complete.

“Then let’s go in right away.”

Just as Jeong-Hoon was about to enter the portal.

“Wait a minute!”

The men who were watching from a distance approached Jeong-Hoon.

They were all men in their early 20s.

“Hmm?”

“We discovered this dungeon first, you know?”

They were all over level 200.

It seemed they had been playing New World diligently.

Jeong-Hoon tilted his head.

“So?”

There was no restriction on the number of people.

“So what? If you understand, get out of the way. This dungeon is ours.”

“…Sigh.”

Jeong-Hoon let out a small sigh.

To think they were arguing about turns even in this situation.

“You bastard, get out of the way while I’m being nice.”

Then Bong-Goo, who had deactivated his stealth, grabbed the man who had spoken by the collar.

The dagger in his right hand was touching the tip of his neck.

“Wh-What?!”

The man flinched as he felt something sharp against his neck.

“If you want to claim ownership, you can take it by force, right? Heh heh.”

It was a typical villain’s laugh.

“Don’t be ridiculous! We discovered this dungeon first!”

One of the men behind him shouted, drawing his sword.

“Oh? I’m a Specter, try me if you can.”

Bong-Goo scoffed and asked.

“Specter…?”

Only then did the man seem to check Kim Bong-Goo’s information and hesitated slightly.

“Stop.”

Jeong-Hoon raised his hand to stop him.

“Yes!”

At his words, Bong-Goo quickly stepped away from the man and returned.

‘…What was that?’

‘Treating a Specter like a toy…?’

‘Shit, he looks like a normal martial artist no matter how you look at it?’

They couldn’t shake off the eerie feeling.

“There’s no entry restriction. In other words, anyone can enter, right?”

“…Ah, yes.”

“Then let’s just go in peacefully. There’s no need for us to get on each other’s bad side.”

With those words, Jeong-Hoon entered the dungeon.

“Have some common sense. They said there would be penalties if we don’t clear it within the time limit, is this the time to be claiming ownership?”

Ha-Jin rebuked them.

“If you interfere, you’re dead.”

Bong-Goo made a throat-slitting gesture towards them and followed Jeong-Hoon into the dungeon.

“Sorry.”

Lastly, even Jeong-Hoon’s mother said a word and entered the dungeon.

“Uh…”

“Um…”

“Should we just hunt the Black King Tigers here?”

“Fuck… I don’t know either.”

The men looked at the dungeon and then turned away.

They had only stopped them because they felt like they were being robbed of something they had discovered first.

None of them had the courage to enter such a massive portal.

***

[You have entered the ??? Dungeon.]

Upon entering the dungeon, a familiar scene unfolded.

“Where is this?”

“The Starting Village?”

The dungeon was the Starting Village.

With the reality merge of New World, the original village had lost its function and was now being used as a dungeon.

Jeong-Hoon immediately started broadcasting.

[Number of live viewers: 0]

Unlike before, no viewers were coming in, even though they should be flooding in.

‘They must be preoccupied.’

It was okay, though.

This video would help clear the dungeons that had opened simultaneously.

[Lv. ??? Defeat the Demon Baruda.]

The condition for clearing the dungeon was to defeat the Demon Baruda.

However, Baruda was basically invincible.

Moreover, it had two instant-death patterns, making it extremely tricky.

‘I know how to break through it.’

He hadn’t been able to break through it at the time, but after that, similar dungeons appeared several times, and the method to break through it was revealed.

“Let’s go north first.”

Jeong-Hoon headed towards the northern cliff.

On the cliff, where there should have been nothing, a giant red jewel was resonating.

‘Destroying the jewels in all directions.’

That was the condition to remove its invincibility.

Jeong-Hoon pulled Anima’s bowstring and released it.

The arrow shot out and accurately embedded itself in the jewel.

Hum-

The jewel resonated strongly.

Jeong-Hoon repeatedly shot arrows, and his mother also fired her gun at the jewel, providing fire support.

Crack-

The jewel couldn’t withstand the powerful firepower and shattered in less than 30 seconds.

[Hmm…]

Then, a message echoed in his mind.

The Demon Baruda was currently asleep.

Originally, it would wake up after 30 minutes, but it stirred because they destroyed the jewel.

“Let’s go east next.”

Jeong-Hoon immediately headed towards the green jewel in the east.

Crack-

The green jewel was also quickly cleared.

Next was the gray jewel in the south.

Finally, he relentlessly destroyed the black jewel in the west.

[Interesting. You dare to disturb my slumber.]

After all the jewels were broken, the Demon Baruda fully awakened.

Whoosh-

A fierce wind swept over Jeong-Hoon.

“What a wind…!”

It was a powerful wind that even surprised Ha-Jin, Bong-Goo, and his mother.

[Master, it’s coming.]

‘Be careful.’

Mukho and Anima hurriedly advised.

– Is HoneyTube raiding a dungeon right now?

– It’s a dungeon that opened in reality, right…?

– The capsule is completely messed up… Instead, New World unfolded before my eyes. Damn it

– Did he just break the jewel?

– Yeah, he only broke the jewel

The number of viewers had already reached 25,000.

Even in this situation, quite a few viewers were watching.

‘This is good enough.’

As Jeong-Hoon checked the number of viewers, a small bat appeared in front of him.

The bat instantly grew in size and transformed into a hideous monster.

‘There it is.’

There was no reason to drag this out.

Jeong-Hoon leaped forward and threw the ‘Frozen Urese’s Curse’ potion, which he had purchased in advance from the Achievement Shop, at it.

“Ugh?! My body won’t move…!”

The cursed monster’s body instantly froze, and its movements stopped momentarily.

“It’s over if I destroy its heart in this state.”

With those words, he thrust his sword into its heart.
