Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 419: Fashant, Incarnation of Spirit King (1)

Since I was lacking in control, it was important for me to strike first, so I had no choice but to opt for the ranged jobs. For the same reason, I had to choose a job offering lots of AOE skills less affected by control, and that’s why I chose the wizard series rather than the archer among the ranged jobs. action

In other words, that’s the reason why I was an ice-type wizard with more AOE skills than single-target skills.

So it was me who was the result of the evolution of the phrase ‘No matter how hard you try, you won’t get anywhere,’ when it came to studying or games.

For that reason, when I obtained Mutual Growth, I immediately chose stamina as the stat that would grow together at 100% with intellect.

[Fire Spirit’s Wrath! Wind Spirit, give the enemy the Wind of Death! Biting Wind!]

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

But I didn’t bother to dodge his attacks.

Instead, I attacked with equal ferocity while leaving myself fully exposed to his attacks. If I was hit with a single strike, I returned with the same single strike. In other words, my attacks were proportional to his attacks, just like how I retaliated at the start.

And that kind of attack method had never seen me losing to the other party.

“Blink! Blink!”

Shuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuuung!

If I felt his attack was stronger than I expected, I avoided his attack using Blink with zero cooldown because it was the stupidest thing to not use a skill I possess.

Of course, I didn’t use Blink with zero cooldown only to avoid his attack.

I moved close to him using Blink with zero cooldown and wielded the +8 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

Puck! Puck!

[Kheeeeeeeek!]

The sword itself was already so powerful, so the stab attack with level 3 Ice Weapon added to it wasn’t just a normal stab attack.

“Ice Wave! Ice Spear!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

The closer I got to him, the easier it was for me to attack him, so I could stab him much faster than before. Of course, he counterattacked since I used the same tactics repeatedly.

[Ice Hand!]

A giant icy hand rose from the air right away, trying to grab me.

[…]

But I already escaped its range using Blink with zero cooldown, then moved to the ground this time.

“Ice Field! Multiple Thin Ice!”

Pasasasasasak!

An ice terrain was created in an instant.

At first I thought it was useless because I was floating in the air like him.

But I realized I didn’t have to think so.

I’ve never met an opponent with a longer striking range than me, regardless of whether it was an archer or wizard. In addition, my trait Ice Man and the +8 Enhanced Ice Emperor’s guardian sword was equipped with an option to increase the performance of all ice type skills, which definitely included the striking range.

Anyway, I launched an attack on my enemy from the ice terrain.

“Ice Rain! Pouring Hail!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!

He was obviously some distance from me.

But, as expected, I succeeded in attacking him despite standing far away, which startled him because he must have suffered a little more damage than before, no matter how small the increase was.

So it was no wonder that he started counterattacking even more fiercely.

[Soar! Wrath of the Land! Wake up! Earth Giant!]

Obviously, he was mighty and strong, but I was much stronger than him.

The more I fought him, the calmer I became. But he got more and more furious while fighting. While fighting against him, I even felt as if I got better at control. In other words, I fought really well as much as I wanted.

In addition, I felt proud of myself because I came up with the idea of creating the ice terrain and taking advantage of my superior attack range rather than fighting in the air, something I could not think of in the past.

Of course, his attack this time was quite unusual, so I used Fly again and reset to Blink with zero cooldown. If he managed to smash Ice Field, it would not be a big damage to me because I could lay it out again when the cooldown was back.

[….]

But nothing happened. My Ice Field wasn’t smashed, nor did it even crack.

“?”

[?]

Generally speaking, when words such as wrath or disaster were added to the skills as their modifiers, their impact was much stronger and powerful. In that respect, I expected Wrath of the Land to be pretty powerful, let alone Earth Giant.

But his attacks didn’t bring out the intended results.

Seeing his shock, I knew something went wrong.

But I seemed to vaguely know what happened.

It was the roots that were always around me, which were underground.

I could not explain this situation without factoring in the roots.

But I didn’t have to explain to this guy about the roots, so I opened my mouth with a smile.

“I heard that you’re the incarnation of Spirit King, but it seems you don’t know how to control the spirit of the land. If that’s the case, are your legs just for demonstration”

[Damn it! Fire Spirit, burn yourself and make this place a fiery hell!]

Obviously, my provocative words seemed to have pissed him off.

His body started to become covered in fierce flames, but that’s what I intended.

Since he was full of anger, he would not think of retreating. The moment he felt he was driven into the corner, my level 10 Ice Breath would deal a fatal blow to him.

***

While Juyoung was engaged in a fierce battle with Fashant, the ruler of the 7th Royal District and the incarnation of the Spirit King, something was going on in a shabby building in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Several people were talking inside the building. But nobody knew what this building was. The shabby building housed the general headquarters of Antalagos, the top agency in the information industry that produced only the most credible and reliable information in the world. Of course, there were underground passages connected in all directions under the building.

In any case, the leader of the Antalagos Information Guild, Oliveira who had a cool mustache, was briefed about the latest status of the quest while sitting on a chair inside the shabby run -down building.

“It’s only been five days since the quest started. As of today, there are 3,651 survivors. Oh, two more have just died.”

“Really? Over 70% of the people have already died?” Oliveira asked, as if he was shocked by the shocking report.

His deputy continued, “Didn’t you expect it? In fact, there were so many amateur players among them, and you expected they would not last several days. But the current survivors are well-prepared guys, so the number of deaths will decrease a lot in the coming days.”

“Hmm…”

Oliveira didn’t say anything, and just stroked his moustache. After a while, he said, “You’re sure Juyoung Hong is going to come back safely, right? Even if all others die, he will survive, I think.”

“Absolutely. I would even bet on the possibility that Juyoung Hong will win if he fights all the users of Revival Legend on earth by himself. As you know, all the possible debuffs don’t work against him. Besides, he knows his own weakness, but he has overcome it completely, so his power is so terrific!”

Oliveira just smacked his lips at his confident reassurances because he totally agreed.

They talked about the participants a little more.

Then Olivera changed the topic at the end of their conversation.

“By the way, what about that crazy guy?” he asked all of a sudden.
