Mincheol, who reached level 70, went down to his hometown for a while.
It was because of my parents’ nagging that the guy who had given up on the company didn’t even show his face.
Leveling up was a priority, but the alibi of going back to my hometown to rest was also important.
Mincheol had no choice but to go back to his hometown for a few days.
When I gave my parents some pocket money as a gift and showed them my retirement fund and the balance I had saved, I heard a generous response, “Take a good rest for half a year.”
‘Money is the best after all.’
It had been exactly two weeks since he was fired from his position as director when Mincheol returned home to Pangyo after a few days off in his hometown.
And on the same day, a notice was posted on the Wings Online homepage.
We are announcing that Wings Online will be completely free to play!
Wings Online has abolished the existing monthly subscription system and changed its payment system to F2P (Free to Play).
Instead, a new cash shop has been introduced. Various user convenience items and new skin items have begun to be sold on a large scale.
For Wings Online, which started out as a monthly subscription MMORPG, this was truly a cataclysmic event.
The notice comment section was a mud pit with users arguing and fighting.
– They said it was going to fail, it was going to fail, and it really is. It was the last pride of virtual reality MMOs… … .
– No, there really are a lot of losers lol. If it were a free game, the number of users would increase and it would be good, so what are you so dissatisfied with?
– Why are you shielding when you’re going to rip off more than the fixed fee with cash items? Haha. Did you release Napalm again?
– Do you think the Donipam kids will give you good cash items? They’ve been treated like this all along, and now they’re treating you like this again~ They’re just fools.
– No, when we sing the song about kicking out GM anchovies and changing the game, what about the kids who rebel when Napalm really does that? You guys… …didn’t you like anchovies?
– Yeah, don’t be a jerk~ It’s 100 times better now that you’re trying to change than when you were a corrupt anchovy bastard~
– No, to be frank, wouldn’t it have been better when there were anchovies? They openly sell cash items as soon as the anchovies come out?
– Just watch a little longer and if you get tired of it, go play another game. Why are you fighting? You Viewers! Is this all there is to a game?
– I can easily say that the only game in my life is Wings…
At the same time, the contents of Season 6, which will be updated in two weeks, were also announced.
– Season 6 of Wings Online coming in 2 weeks!
We have some huge news for you!
Adventurers, are you ready to embark on an adventure to the New World?
The reason users were agitated wasn’t just because it was free.
This is because the Season 6 update is a large-scale update that has never been seen before.
Guild power struggles such as occupation wars and siege wars have also been added, but the biggest change is the addition of the New Continent.
The new continent ‘Bethelos’ is discovered next to the old continent ‘Alpheria’ where users have been active, and the main theme of Season 6 is to embark on a new adventure to this new continent.
The anticipation of the new update and the anxiety about the sudden change in rate plan.
Amidst the two mixed together, a tense atmosphere hung over Wings Online.
of course.
“Yahoo! It’s a cash item!”
There were also users who liked it without any hesitation.
“… … .”
Oasis looked back at the owner, who was holding the cash item he had just purchased and was delighted.
‘Isn’t it a bit problematic that the user I really like is the former director? … ?’
Rather, Oasis had complicated feelings.
‘You got cut off because of that cash item… … .’
But Labo was just happy that the hellish leveling section was resolved.
“With this, you don’t have to worry about reaching the max level!”
Labo was delighted as he applied the experience boost item.
The effect of the experience boost is +25 percent to all experience points.
Separately from this, all users were given a free experience boost and 2 production skill probability boost tickets.
The problem is that this was applied separately.
In other words, the free experience boost +25% and the paid experience boost +25% are added together, so for the next two weeks, the experience will be +50%.
‘I’m crazy, I’m crazy! I’m just going to get to level 90?’
I was against the introduction of cash items, so I said something like that, but I was overcome with a strange feeling of, ‘This is why people use cash items.’
In addition to this, Labo also purchased one month of the ‘Contract of Trial’, which lowers the level limit of equipment items by 10, and the ‘Contract of Oblivion’, which allows the character’s bonus stats to be reset at will.
Of course I bought them all for Oasis too.
Oasis understood the experience and production skill probability boosts, but I was puzzled because I didn’t quite understand the other cash items.
“What exactly is the effect of this cash item?”
“It’s exactly as described. For example, the ‘Contract of Trial’ allows you to wear level 80 equipment even if you’re level 70.”
Labo tried wearing one of the level 80 pieces of equipment that was in his inventory.
Oasis nodded and said, “Aha.”
“The Contract of Oblivion allows you to redistribute the stats you’ve allocated at any time. If you’re bored, you can even put all your stats into Strength. You can just redistribute them again.”
“No, but he’s still a priest with no power… … .”
“That’s an example. Anyway, it’s a cash item that makes it easier to distribute stats depending on the situation.”
Oasis actually made a “Wow” sound when resetting and changing the stats.
“When hunting, you can change your hunting stats, and when PVP, you can change your PVP stats. Anyway, it’s convenient to have~”
“I see… … I see.”
There was no cooldown for stat resets and redistributions. You could change and invest at any time.
“… … .”
Oasis quickly reset and redistributed its status for a moment.
‘By any chance, if this is it… … .’
“Oasis? What are you doing~ Let’s go quickly.”

Labo called out to Oasis, who was lost in thought. Oasis, startled, closed her status window and ran over to Labo.
“Time is running out. I need to rush to level 90 while I get the experience boost.”
“Okay! Then where are you going today?”
“First, let’s go to the Dark Cult base.”
Labo said as he opened a portal to the base.
“It’s been a week since my last visit, so I’m going to go check how much resources have been accumulated.”
“yes!”
Labo entered the portal first, and Oasis followed suit.
* * *
Dark Cult base, Undertown branch.
entrance.
“Welcome, Your Excellency the Grand Marshal!”
The maid Alpha and the butler Beta, who had been waiting, bowed deeply.
As soon as he was promoted, his title changed. Now a general, Labo threw his head back arrogantly.
“Yes, the Grand Marshal has arrived. Go ahead and report the situation.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
As Alpha and Beta stretched out their arms, a system window appeared in front of Labo.
Dark Cult Base – Undertown Branch: Status
It’s already been about a week since my last visit when I was in my second job.
For a week, the golems have been mining resources one by one.
A sinister smile spread across Labo’s lips as he looked at the piled up stones, wood, and iron ore, which were more than he had expected.
“Okay, what should I make with these… … .”
After thinking about it for a while, Labo decided to invest all his resources into leveling up his barracks.
Once the legion forces were built up, something could be done.
When you touch the barracks in the Labo status window, an upgrade option appears.
Alpha, who was standing next to him, asked to confirm.
“Would you like to upgrade your barracks?”
“Okay~.”
“Yes, my lord. I obey your command.”
Immediately afterwards, the sound of construction starting to be heard from one side of the base.
When Labo poked his head out to look in that direction, he saw that the barracks, which were level 1, were being expanded by automatically flying in wood and stone.
“The upgrade will take 24 hours.”
“Okay, okay. I’ll be back in about a week anyway.”
Beta asked cautiously after hearing that it would be a week later.
“Then, Your Majesty. Would you like to use the reservation production function?”
“Huh? Pre-production?”
“Yes, it is a function that reserves soldiers to be produced after the barracks upgrade is complete.”
“Oh, now that I think about it, there was such a function.”
Beta opened the barracks production reservation window in front of Labo, who nodded.
“Here is a list of soldiers that can be produced in a level 2 barracks.”
Dark Cult Base-Barracks: Lv2
> Tier1
– Goblin Spearman: 1,000 infamy / 100 gold
– Goblin Archer: Infamy 1,500 / Gold 150
> Tier2
– Goblin Shieldbearer: Infamy 2,000 / Gold 200
– Goblin Wolf Rider: Infamy 2,500 / Gold 250
– Goblin Shaman: Infamy 3,000 / Gold 300
It was still just goblins, but the tech definitely went up as the barracks level went up.
After thinking about it for a moment, Labo reserved production for four Goblin Archers, five Goblin Spearmen, and two Goblin Shieldmen.
A total of 15,000 infamy and 1,500 gold were used.
‘For now, let’s stick to the basics and bulk up.’
Alpha and Beta bowed deeply as Labo ordered production.
“I will train the troops as you instructed, Your Majesty!”
“Okay~ You’re doing well.”
Leaving the base where construction was in progress, Labo and Oasis returned to Undertown.
* * *
“Now, oasis!”
Labo, standing at the entrance to Undertown, applauded.
“Today I’m going to do a scenario quest.”
“Scenario quest?”
Labo explained to Oasis, who was tilting her head.
“It’s a quest where you experience a story that follows the official history of Wings Online. It’s already season 5, so it’s pretty well-prepared~.”
“Oh, oh, oh!”
“All the quests that progress through the main stream of Wings Online are scenario quests.”
Oasis shouted with sparkling eyes at Labo’s words.
“Main story! I’ve never done it before!”
“Well, scenario quests are usually carried out in Snow White.”
There are also Undertown-only scenario quests for notorious users.
However, it was virtually impossible to proceed because the old people of Undertown had a warm(?) tradition of interfering with this quest.
It was common sense that notorious users were left untouched.
“We couldn’t get into Snow White in the first place, so it’s natural that we couldn’t do it.”
“to……?”
Oasis’s expression became pale.
“But we still can’t enter Snow White, right?”
“Hoo hoo. Oasis.”
Shh.
Labo, with the corners of his mouth rolled up, opened the cash shop and purchased an item.
“I was strongly opposed to the introduction of cash items, but… … .”
And he shared the item with Oasis.
“Now that I’m a user, I think this item is a really, really good cash item.”
Oasis opened his eyes wide and read the item’s description.
The Covenant of Absolution
– Only available to notorious users.
– Notoriety penalty exemption for the duration of the contract.
– Applicable for only one week per month. Resets on the 1st of every month.
“During the contract period… … Notoriety penalty exemption… … ?!”
The oasis opened its small mouth wide.
Notoriety penalty, i.e. inability to use normal cities and facilities.
That point is exempted!
“So, so, does that mean I can go out to a normal city to play?! Are you saying the guards won’t catch me?!”
“That’s it~ You can play the game just like a regular user. However, it’s a contract that only allows you to use it for one week per month.”
Labo reached out and ruffled Oasis’s hair.
“And you can get your mulberries in a week.”
“Wow, woahhh! Wooahhh!”
“Now, oasis!”
Labo stretched out his hand and pointed to the ceiling.
Towards the city that exists just above the underground city of Undertown.
“Let’s go play at Snow White!”
Oasis raised both arms and shouted with a face flushed with excitement.
“Hurray- eh!”
It was a face that really showed anticipation.
‘You look like a child going to an amusement park for the first time.’
Looking at Oasis jumping for joy, Labo thought to himself.
