How to Survive as a Player Chapter 249

#249

“Is it possible to obtain the fear immunity skill?”

“It wouldn’t be unreasonable to embody ‘Beusbrihel’ with a psychic skill to stimulate fear. “Mock battles will be helpful for training if we materialize the appearance of monsters using the same principle.”

Certainly, Baek Do-hyun’s mental skills had many areas that could be helpful in training. As he said, if ‘Beusbrihel’ can be implemented in any form, the performance of simulation training will be greatly improved. You will also be able to acquire fear immunity.

“haha… The ruling empire also gritted its teeth.”

As Li Jeong said, at this point, everyone should have gritted their teeth. He looked at Baluch and saw that he was no different from others. The shiny red eyes beneath the robe looked like they had been put to the utmost care.

“Now is it my car? Maybe it’s because everyone said so many great things earlier, but it feels quite burdensome. Hmm, first of all… Unlike you, the Magic Empire has no intention of doing anything to the Alliance. However, if it is a power increase for your allies, leave it to me. “We plan to mass-produce our country’s magic weapon, the ‘Giant Soldier.’”

“How many units of the Colossus have been completed so far?”

“About 100 units are prepared. If we focus only on manufacturing during the remaining three months, we will be able to complete approximately 300 units. Of course, supply of materials will be an issue.”

“In that regard, we at the Black Empire will help to the best of our ability.”

“Oh, I’ll help too. There is a lot of the ore we requested last time around our empire. Zenka, are you okay?”

Along with Se-hyeon, it was Lee Jae-young who stepped forward to help Baluk. Jaeyoung Lee, who may have already had a history of dealing with Baluk, turned to Zenka and expressed his intention to help. And Zenka nodded her head without saying anything.

“Yes, I would be grateful if you did.” However, even considering the supply and demand of magic stones, we do not plan to use many aircraft in the mock battle. It seems like it can only be used as a performance understanding step… “Are you okay?”

“Yes, it doesn’t matter. “As long as you produce it perfectly.”

“Don’t worry. “I promise to complete everything in the name of my country.”

A young voice that did not match the tone of voice conveyed a stubborn meaning. Sehyun also nodded his head in agreement without asking any more questions.

In addition, Tyra, Hume, and Ryoma stepped forward to help procure supplies and train other empires. Of course, he said that everyone would participate in the mock battle.

The recording stopped when all the stories were finished.

Click-

Sehyun pressed the stop button on the recorder placed in the center of the round table to retrieve it.

“The video recorded today will be sent to the entire empire by tomorrow. “You will be flooded with calls, so I hope you can handle them well.”

In the past, people who would have left as soon as they finished speaking were now sitting with stern expressions and looking down at their desks. The reason was understandable.

“… “Is your Grand Duke really a U-class vassal?”

The question everyone was curious about came out of Tyra’s mouth. Sehyun nodded his head right away without any hesitation. He had no intention of hiding it in the first place.

“yes. In addition, I am the first person the guide mentioned.”

“Then, it will be your Grand Duke who selects ‘Mugu’.”

Everyone was thinking about what happened ‘that day’. The time when Bill Will gave his final guidance.

【Currently, only the final achievement of the Tower of Trials remains. Our guides call the final floor of the Tower of Trials the ‘Last Gate.’ Please take a moment to look at your achievements window here. Most road players probably don’t have more than one achievement. Of course, you don’t have to worry. The achievement only needs to be achieved by one person. And here we have a ‘first achiever’ who has already achieved two achievements.】

‘The first achiever’. Unfortunately, Sehyun was the only person who could fit that contradictory statement.

[Strike the Tower of Tests. (99/100)]

[Building an imperial alliance. (498/100)]

[Raising a U-class vassal. (1/1)]

As Bill Will said, there was only one final achievement left for Sehyeon.

【The thing at the ‘Final Gate’ of the Tower of Trials is an ‘armor’ containing the essence of the goddess. It is the only weapon that can kill ‘Beusbrihel’ and is also the final reward for the achievement. However, equivalent strength is required to pull out the weapon. This is why the training of U-class retainers was encouraged. To put it briefly, only a U-rank vassal can obtain the weapon, and one of you has already raised that U-rank vassal.】

Perhaps out of consideration, Billwill did not specify the ‘first achiever’ until the end.

“… Did you say that once you open the ‘last door’ there is no turning back? “That’s a really scary story.”

Tyra spoke with a long sigh and an anxious feeling. Everyone probably feels the same way. The fact that you only get one chance made me think about a lot of things.

【Once the ‘final door’ is opened, the events that follow become irreversible. From the moment the weapon is drawn, the barrier will only allow approximately 12 hours for maintenance. Therefore, the ‘last door’ must be opened exactly 3 months later, before the barrier expires.】

The opening of the 100th floor of the tower had to take place three months after all maintenance had been completed. That was the last moment the guides hoped for.

【We know better than anyone else the hard work you have put in to get to this point. At the last moment, our guides will fight alongside you. I promise that we will risk our lives and stand together at the end.】

The guides also prepared to face death. In the end, just like in the beginning, the guides stayed with the road players until the end. So sick of it.

“… Stop getting up. “It’s going to be busy starting tomorrow, so we should all go back and rest, at least for today.”

After a long silence, it was Sehyun who stood up first. However, soon after seeing Baek Do-hyeon, he sat back down. One by one, they shook off their heavy expressions and stood up from their seats.

Se-hyeon and Baek Do-hyeon were the only ones left where those who disappeared without seeing them off were. It wasn’t anything else, it was to hear from Baek Do-hyun about mental perception skills.

“So do you feel like saying something now, Mr. Baek Do-hyun?”

“Was it something I could have chosen? “You talked about the contract like that, ha.”

“Okay, okay. Let’s talk quickly and go. “Isis is waiting outside.”

Baek Do-hyun frowned at the tone that seemed to soothe a child, then sighed and belatedly gave a short answer.

“Everything is controllable.”

“What do you mean?”

“It means that I have gained the skill to dominate any living creature.”

Sehyeon’s eyes widened silently. The surprised gaze quickly disappeared.

“Does resistance or blocking not work at all?”

“okay.”

“What are the odds of it being eaten by ‘it’?”

“It worked.”

“How do you know? “Don’t lie, right?”

“Because this is something we have checked several times inside the tower. And Isis said so too. That it would work for ‘it’. However, the time is ridiculously short.”

“How much?”

“It varies from creature to creature, but the time to control a ‘part’ of it within the tower was about a minute. You’ll have to try it, but assuming it controls the entire body, 15 seconds. No, it could be shorter than that, around 10 seconds.”

Approximately 10 seconds. Nevertheless, Sehyun could not ignore those 10 seconds. A means to subdue ‘Beusbrihel’ was now available. Baek Do-hyeon’s eyes were full of confidence.

If Se-hyeon knew Baek Do-hyun, he would never say the word ‘confidence’ as long as there was even 1% uncertainty. So at least I knew this was true.

The hard work he put in to acquire the skill has finally paid off. I don’t know what he experienced in the tower, but it was probably not an easy time.

“Wouldn’t there be a cost or side effect? “Aren’t you going to die?”

“Why don’t you fix his passing habit? “If you’re going to talk nonsense, I’ll get up.”

It would be nice if it were just useless words as he said, but from what Sehyun had experienced so far, Elix was a place where the law of equivalent exchange was uniform. Excellent skills came with some side effects.

And most of the side effects were physical damage or deterioration.

“I will contact you soon about a mock battle, so don’t bother answering. Please go carefully.”

“Just get in touch.”

In the past, the man would have just waved his hands and walked away because it was annoying, but now he was constantly talking back. Se-hyeon watched Baek Do-hyeon walking away with her chin resting on her chin, and only got up when the sight of him got further away.

In his hand was a video recorder that he was handling. Starting tomorrow, Elix will face another upheaval. As such, the work he has to do in the federation will increase significantly.

What Sehyun provided was just an excuse. There are probably many empires that were unable to contact the Federation because they had no excuse. The purpose of this time was to provide them with an opportunity to join the federation.

If you want to survive, you will stick, if not, you will hide. Anyway, it was good. The more important issue was that there was at least one person who showed the will to fight.

“It’s going to be busy.”

Sehyeon soon took heavy steps and left the throne room.
