The Return of the Legendary All-Master

Chapter 97

[Level Up!]

[All stats have increased by +1.]

[Bonus stat +1 has been granted.]

Along with countless messages about leveling up, the experience points gained were displayed next to them.

[43,782,982]

A whopping 43 million experience points.

“Crazy… 43 million.”

The number 43 million was also revealed to the viewers watching the broadcast.

– What the fuck?

– 43 million?

– No… Is that even possible?

– What the…

– 43 million is the amount of experience you get from clearing a level 200 dungeon 100 times!

– Even 100 times is generous… On average, you need to clear it 150 times to get that much experience!

– Is it even possible to get that much at once?!

Such reactions were natural.

Just by clearing one dungeon, they had received as much experience as clearing a level 200 dungeon 100-150 times.

With this, Jeong-Hoon’s level became 164.

“Wow… I leveled up by 5 just from here.”

Ha-Jin’s level became 169.

– Is it possible to get that much from the Ruined City?

– Isn’t it because they used cheat codes?

– It’s really amazing…

The Ruined City wasn’t a dungeon that no one had ever cleared.

It was a very high-difficulty dungeon for users under level 200, and you could only enter it by accepting a quest.

On the other hand, if you were over level 201, you couldn’t proceed with the quest and could only enter the dungeon.

And the experience points from the dungeon became very ordinary.

It became a very ordinary dungeon.

‘That means there’s no first clear reward.’

Naturally, the first clear reward went to someone else.

He didn’t even want it anyway, since the first clear reward for this dungeon was an Epic grade accessory.

More importantly, it was about the reward for the Epic quest.

“D-Did we succeed?!”

The Nameless Man greeted Jeong-Hoon and Ha-Jin with a touched expression.

“Yes. We succeeded.”

“Thank you so much! Thank you!”

A purple exclamation mark blinked above the man’s head.

It meant that the quest had been successful.

– Wow hahaha

– Wasn’t he emotionless before?

– After completing the quest, he became so emotional? Is he obsessed with capitalism?

– Ah lol Can’t miss out on quest completion lol

– So what’s the reward?

– Shouldn’t he give a good reward with that face?

– It was a difficulty that couldn’t be cleared without cheat codes lol

The viewers waited for the reward with anticipation.

“We’ll end the broadcast here.”

However, Jeong-Hoon had no intention of revealing the reward.

‘It’s enough to reveal that it gives a lot of experience points.’

The reward he was about to receive was an item that hadn’t been revealed in New World yet.

– ???

– ???

– No way, you’re ending it here?

– This isn’t right!

– Reveal the reward!

The viewers were outraged.

But Jeong-Hoon didn’t care at all and signaled to Ha-Jin.

“Everyone, I’m sorry!”

Ha-Jin, quick on the uptake, apologized to the viewers and ended the broadcast.

LIVE broadcast ended.

After confirming that the broadcast had ended, Jeong-Hoon finally received the reward.

[Quest completed.]

[You can choose a reward.]

[1. Ancient Recipe]

[2. Lv.10 Up!]

Two rewards.

Jeong-Hoon chose the Ancient Recipe without a second thought.

[You have acquired the ‘Ancient Recipe’.]

Done.

He had finally obtained the Ancient Recipe.

The reward for the Epic quest wasn’t just a simple recipe.

[Ancient Recipe]

– A recipe that allows you to develop new ancient alchemy.

It was a recipe that allowed him to develop ancient alchemy.

However, the recipe was written in an ancient language, and more than 70% of it was severely damaged, making it impossible to decipher.

‘Done. With this, I can prepare for the next plan.’

He would use the Legendary Enhancement Stone that Yeo Sunwoo would bring and this recipe to bring the future forward by 10 years.

“Wait a minute! But why aren’t you giving me anything?”

Ha-Jin was dumbfounded.

There was only one Ancient Recipe.

Only Jeong-Hoon, who had completed the quest first, had the right to choose.

Of course, if Jeong-Hoon hadn’t chosen the Ancient Recipe, Ha-Jin would have been given the right to choose.

‘I’m sorry.’

Jeong-Hoon apologized to Ha-Jin inwardly.

Ha-Jin had also formed a party with Jeong-Hoon, so he had indeed completed it first.

But since Jeong-Hoon was the party leader, the right to choose went to him first.

Of course, Ha-Jin would also receive a reward.

A typical Epic quest item.

“Ah, I’m sorry… I only have one. Instead, I’ll raise your level by 10.”

The Nameless Man made a generous offer.

A 10 level increase.

Of course, this reward was only offered to the first 1,000 people.

‘After 1,000 people, they’ll only get a 3 level increase.’

Yes, that’s right.

The reward for this Epic quest was also a 3-level increase.

The difference from the temple quest was that this quest would still give you a level increase even after the first few people completed it.

Although each user could only clear it once, it was a quest that could be undertaken at any time, which was why it became a national dungeon.

“Then I’ll gratefully accept it!”

Ha-Jin smiled brightly, seemingly satisfied, and received the reward.

* * *

World Com was on fire.

[Hey! Someone cleared the Ruined City!]

– And they even cleared it by accepting the Epic quest!

└ I saw it too lol Damn, I was so confused when the LIVE broadcast suddenly ended.

└ Yeah, so what was the reward lol

└ It felt like I was taking a shit and it got cut off lol

[I’m a level 182 archer.]

– Looking for people to raid the Ruined City with.

└ Honestly, even though it’s a one-time quest, the experience points are so tempting. You could probably level up 3-4 times just from that…

└ Ha… This is another honey pot.

└ The reward for the Epic quest seems to be pretty good too.

└ Anyway, we have to go and get it.

Not long after the post was uploaded, more than 100 users gathered at the entrance of the Ruined City.

It was all thanks to Honey Tube.

“Does anyone know the cheat code locations and monster attack patterns?”

“…”

However, it was practically impossible to memorize the cheat code locations and monster attack patterns just by watching the broadcast once.

At that moment, a mage raised his hand.

“I memorized about half of it, not perfectly though.”

“Really?”

“Yes. I have two smartphones. I watched with one and filmed with the other.”

“Wow, awesome!”

Many users flocked to the mage at the mention of filming.

Naturally, the mage became the party leader, and they formed a 5-person party based on level and class grade and entered the Ruined City.

“I filmed it too!”

Then others who claimed to have filmed it also volunteered to be the leader.

They formed 5-person parties and entered the Ruined City.

However, no matter how much time passed, no one could complete the quest from the Nameless Man.

It was because they hadn’t memorized it well enough yet.

* * *

A day later.

[Whisper/SaltySoup4Mom -> Hoon: I’ve arrived in Märchen Kingdom!]

Kim Bong-Goo hurriedly arrived in Märchen Kingdom and whispered to Jeong-Hoon.

He hadn’t realized it would be this hard to reach level 151.

“You’re here?”

Jeong-Hoon was waiting for him at the inn.

Kim Bong-Goo sensed that the gaze Jeong-Hoon was giving him while resting his chin on his hand wasn’t ordinary, so he hurriedly ran to him.

“I’m sorry I’m late!”

“What if you fell while running like that? You could have come slowly.”

“Huh?”

Kim Bong-Goo felt a chill run down his spine.

What was this guy trying to do by being so nice from the start?

“Bong-Goo, you’re pretty slow at reaching 151, aren’t you?”

“…Well.”

“Are you trying to make excuses?”

“No.”

“So, shall I help you level up?”

“It’s okay…”

“What did you say?”

Jeong-Hoon’s eyes changed.

Kim Bong-Goo hurriedly shook his head and forced a smile.

“No, sir. You’re offering to help me level up… Wow! I’m so happy!”

“I thought so.”

Jeong-Hoon took out a token from his inventory and handed it to him.

“What’s this…?”

“It’s a token I recorded with the camera. It contains all the methods I used to conquer the Ruined City, so memorize it and clear it alone.”

“A-Alone…?”

“Yes. If you form a party, the experience points will be divided.”

Actually, it was okay up to two people, but Jeong-Hoon didn’t tell Kim Bong-Goo that.

He thought that Kim Bong-Goo could clear it alone if he could find the cheat codes.

Of course, it would have been a different story if Kim Bong-Goo’s class wasn’t a rogue type, but he was an Epic grade Assassin.

It was more than enough.

Unlike Jeong-Hoon’s thoughts, Kim Bong-Goo’s mind had long since gone blank.

His thoughts couldn’t keep up with Jeong-Hoon’s words at all.

“A-Alone? Me, alone…”

He had seen it live.

He had seen how Jeong-Hoon had conquered the Ruined City with monstrous movements.

And he was convinced.

That he couldn’t do it.

“Yes.”

But Jeong-Hoon was telling him to clear it alone.

How long was he going to push him into the depths of hell?

Hong Hyun-Woo, you son of a bitch.

He cursed at the guy he had cut ties with a long time ago, not knowing what he was doing now, and took the token.

“…I’ll do my best.”

He couldn’t bring himself to say he couldn’t do it.

“Okay. If you do that, you should be able to reach level 160.”

“Yes…”

“See you in a week.”

“A week…?”

“Yes.”

Jeong-Hoon nodded and left the inn.

Kim Bong-Goo, left alone, sat blankly for a long time.

* * *

Whoosh-

The capsule door opened and Jeong-Hoon came out.

“Phew.”

He was thinking of taking a short break after finishing the Ruined City.

‘It seems like it’s taking quite a while to get the Legendary Enhancement Stone.’

It couldn’t be helped.

Currently, Legendary Enhancement Stones could only be obtained with a low probability from hunting boss monsters.

Also, there were crazy people who actively bought and collected Legendary Enhancement Stones.

So it would inevitably take time to compete with those crazy people and obtain them.

‘In the end, those crazy people will be the winners.’

The world of New World was still vast.

As you leveled up, new content would be unlocked, and the meta would change rapidly.

And in the process, the value of Legendary Enhancement Stones would skyrocket.

“Son!”

At that moment, the door opened and his mother came in.

“Yes?”

“Did you do a broadcast?”

“How did you know?”

How did his mother know that he had broadcasted?

“I just happened to see it.”

“…I see.”

“But it was amazing. How did you know there were cheat codes hidden like that?”

“I was lucky. I used to play games like bug finding, remember? The rules were similar to those games.”

Jeong-Hoon used to enjoy various games when he was young.

The experience had also helped him grow into an All-Master before his return.

“Aha.”

His mother quickly understood.

“Did you level up, Mom?”

“Yes. The guild is supporting me a lot, so I think I’ll be able to aim for my second class advancement soon.”

“Wow… That’s great!”

Jeong-Hoon grinned widely.

His mother was also growing very well.

He didn’t have to worry too much.

‘…I’m glad Ho-Yeong is taking good care of you.’

It seemed like things would be fine if they continued like this.

* * *

A text message arrived from Yeo Sunwoo.

[I got the enhancement stone. Can we meet now so I can give it to you?]

Finally, the Legendary Enhancement Stone was about to be in his hands.

Jeong-Hoon entered the capsule and logged in.

‘By the way, Mukho has been quiet.’

Mukho hadn’t said a word since he chose the Mark of Divinity.

Jeong-Hoon hadn’t spoken to Mukho either, thinking he would see who would break first.

He thought that Mukho would start babbling soon anyway.

But Mukho hadn’t said anything until now.

It seemed like he was sulking.

If he didn’t appease him, it would probably last longer.

‘…This is too comfortable.’

It couldn’t be more comfortable.

Jeong-Hoon had no intention of appeasing Mukho.

He felt alive without that noisy voice in his head.

[This is driving me crazy! Are you comfortable? Comfortable?!]

Mukho screamed.

‘You startled me… Please give me a heads-up next time.’

Jeong-Hoon sighed.

He had overlooked the fact that Mukho could read his thoughts.

[You’re a really bad owner! Do you know that? In terms of sentence, it’s 11 years!]

‘You’re surprisingly detailed in useless things.’

[Why won’t you listen to me! Why are you eating poop! Are you telling me to serve an idiot as my master? You’re an idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Cough! Cough…!]

Mukho coughed as if he was choking.

It seemed that he was very displeased with Jeong-Hoon choosing the Mark of Divinity.

‘Alright, calm down. There’s a reason I chose this.’

[Reason? Reeeaaaasssoooonnn?]

‘Anyway, just be quiet for a moment.’

It wasn’t the time to be talking to Mukho.

“You’re here?”

Yeo Sunwoo had arrived.

“Yes.”

Jeong-Hoon ignored Mukho’s voice and greeted Yeo Sunwoo.

“I hope I’m not too late.”

Yeo Sunwoo smiled awkwardly.

Ho-Yeong didn’t actively collect Legendary Enhancement Stones, so it seemed they had a hard time obtaining it.

“It’s okay. The important thing is that you got it for me.”

“Yes.”

Yeo Sunwoo took out the Legendary Enhancement Stone and handed it to Jeong-Hoon without asking how he would use it.

A brilliant green enhancement stone.

This was the Legendary Enhancement Stone.
