General users begin their adventure at the ‘Twilight Port’, west of the New Continent, Bethelus.
Afterwards, you will explore the New World by crossing the continent to the east. In the process, you will grow by obtaining new dungeons, new territories, new resources, and treasures.
Towards the end of the season, you will reach the eastern end of Bethelos and encounter a new group of hostile NPCs, the Dark Cult, along with the final dungeons in the east.
“In other words, the dungeon west of Bethelos is suitable for level 80~90 players. This eastern end is where you need to come in a level 100 party.”
Labo led the party, speaking calmly.
The elaborately designed tropical forest was beautiful, but somehow had an eerie silence about it.
The forest was strangely quiet, except for the sound of birds chirping in the distance.
The group walked forward nervously.
“There’s a maximum level dungeon nearby, so there aren’t many wild animals. Don’t worry. There won’t be any surprise attacks.”
Labo explained and reassured the group.
In fact, this silence was also intended to make users nervous. People tend to be more nervous in quiet places than in crowded places.
Soon, a flat hill appeared in front of the group. Upon closer inspection, they saw a wide base surrounded by low stone walls.
The base was occupied by monsters that looked high level at first glance. They were guarding the surroundings with hollow full plate armor, holding weapons and creaking.
Living Armor Legion.
In the center of the base was a cloaked knight riding on horseback, along with two giant golems.
The knight’s horse was just armor, a living armor.
“This is the occupied territory at the eastern end of Bethelus. ‘Paradise Lost.’”
Labo said, examining the monsters.
“This is the largest and most important occupied area in Bethelos. If users occupy this area, they can use it as a bridgehead for conquering the final dungeon.”
There are no cities in the New World of Bethelus. Instead, there are a total of 10 occupied areas.
Users must occupy occupied areas and develop them to make them function as cities.
Develop the captured area, eliminate the threats in the area, and then advance to the next captured area.
This is the structure that expands the user base.
As the tenth and last of those occupied territories, it was naturally the largest and most important place, Paradise Lost.
“And here we eat.”
Aggle King took out his telescope and examined the monsters.
As an archer-type job capable of long-distance reconnaissance, it was possible to scan monsters from afar.
The average level of the Living Armor Legion was 99, and the golems and knights, presumed to be boss-level, were level 100.
“We’re all level 90… … Can we catch that?”
“of course.”
To be honest, Labo could have taken over on his own.
But with six subordinates, there was no reason not to utilize them.
“First, let’s split up into teams. Let’s see… … .”
Labo classified the roles of party members.
Oasis. Holy Priest. Pure Healer.
Rabbit. Illusionist. Sub-dealer and CC caster.
Cain. Black. Pure dealer.
Oldman. Warbringer. Diltang.
Aggle King. The shooter of Matan. Pure dealer.
Doctor. Poison Eater. Sub-dealer and sub-healer.
‘I guess I’ll have to try out different combinations… … I’ll just divide it up any way I want for now.’
After thinking it over, Labo gave instructions.
“Oasis, Rabbit, and Cain are group 1. Oldman, Uggle King, and Doctor are group 2. Each attack the north and south gates of the base to confuse the monsters.”
They were all hardcore gamers with a huge gaming savvy.
Each person reached an implicit agreement on how to distribute damage, tank, and heal just by exchanging glances without any specific instructions.
“Just cause confusion. They’re monsters that are difficult to catch at their current level.”
“you?”
When Cain asked with a nod, Labo grinned and drew his sword.
“I’ll go in alone and hit the boss.”
It may have sounded ridiculous, but Labo had already proven his abilities to all of them.
“In the occupied territory, if you just eliminate the boss monster, the subordinate monsters will fall on their own. If you distract them and weaken the base’s defenses, I will finish off the boss.”
So everyone was convinced and followed Labo’s words.
The guild members formed groups of three and headed toward the north and south gates.
Labodo, who had been watching the scene, slowly walked towards the east gate.
* * *
The north gate of the occupied paradise.
Two Living Armors stood motionless in front of the door, keeping watch over the surroundings.
Crunch.
One of them sensed something unusual. Then the Living Armor next to it also noticed something unusual.
A man in a rag coat, a girl in a white priest’s robe, and a woman in a bunny girl outfit with rabbit ears were walking toward them.
“Blessing of the North Sword! Aura of the Guardian Angel! Melody of the Favorable Wind! Fountain of Wisdom!”
Oasis gave buffs to all the members.
“Lure as many troops as possible out of the base.”
Cain placed his hand on the hilt of the sword and spoke in a low voice.
“… … Let’s first get a taste of a level 99 monster.”
Kuoooo!
A dull roar came from the empty helmet of the Living Armor. Immediately afterwards, two Living Armors began to run towards me.

Knock knock knock!
A heavy armored figure surges forward, threateningly treading the ground.
“Baldo: Sunset.”
Cain first tried to lightly throw a sword.
Tsuk!
However, the sharp blade that fell from above only scratched the Living Armor’s helmet and did not deal any real damage.
“My teeth won’t even go in… … .”
The Living Armors swung their weapons as they approached Cain, who was clicking his tongue.
“Sura.”
Cain calmly blocked the damage with his counterattack Sura, but even the counterattack Sura wasn’t very fun.
It was then that Rabbit, who had been standing behind, stepped forward.
“Glass-colored fascination!”
Rabbit used his skill, raised his white-gloved hand to his lips, and kissed the air with a kissing sound.
Stop!
One of the Living Armors that was striking down Cain stopped.
And then he turned the weapon around and struck down his fellow Living Armor.
Kwajik!
The attacked Living Armor hesitated as if it didn’t understand English, but after being hit a few more times, it started hitting its comrades as well.
The two Living Armors started attacking each other. Their HP was slowly dropping.
The rabbit covered his mouth and chuckled.
“I liked it so much that I rode the Welcome Magician tree.”
Illusionist.
A wizard class armed with various CCs and flashy tricks such as charm, reflection, illusion, and clone.
Thanks to the charm, the two Living Armors fought each other until their HP was completely depleted, and Cain was able to finish them off without much difficulty.
Kkudangtang!
Cain nodded to Rabbit in front of the pieces of armor that were crumbling away helplessly.
“It’s pretty good.”
“No problem.”
The rabbit smiled broadly.
“Then, shall we pull out as many as possible for the original purpose?”
Rabbit walked lightly to the front of the base and spread his arms.
“Mirror Welcome!”
Rabbit’s body became blurry and two clones appeared on each side, for a total of four.
“Now, lure them all!”
As Rabbit gestured forward, the clones ran forward.
The clones quickly crossed the walls of the base and struck the living armors placed here and there.
“Hoo… … .”
Looking at that sight, Cain felt a little amazed.
To be honest, Cain had been underestimating Rabbit all this time.
Labo and Oasis had fought swords directly, and Oldman, Uggle King, and the Doctor were notorious to begin with, but Rabbit knew nothing about it.
She wasn’t even a duel arena ranker, she was just Labo’s acquaintance.
However, freely controlling four clones was no ordinary feat.
Cain internally revised Rabbit’s assessment.
– I added two Living Armors to each clone, Rabbit! What do we do now?
“Good job, Alice. Just lead him this way.”
In fact, all of those clones were controlled by Rabbit’s support AI, Alice, but Cain couldn’t know that fact.
Clank, clank!
Soon, the eight Living Armor units that the clones had lured out ran out of the base and began running straight towards the group.
“It’s good that you lured them, but… … there are a lot.”
Cain muttered in a trembling voice.
Rabbit’s Charm is a good skill, but you can only cast one at a time.
Even if you stop one with fascination, what about the rest?
“Summon: Bisil!”
At that moment, Oasis summoned Bisil from the side. Then, she slammed her staff on the floor!
“We have no choice but to deal with it calmly and slowly! After all, our goal isn’t to eliminate them, but to buy time!”
“… … That’s right.”
Cain nodded and winked at Rabbit.
“Rabbit… … I said. You continue to lure out the monsters inside the base.”
“Continue? Isn’t that too much?”
“It doesn’t matter. I’m confident in my ‘defense.’”
Cain looked to the side as he prepared to use the Sura.
“You too?”
chuck!
Instead of answering, Oasis pulled out a beginner’s dagger and showed it to him.
Cain, who was snickering, shouted as he saw the Living Armor charging straight at him.
“Okay. Come on, tin cans!”
* * *
Occupied territory, paradise lost.
South Gate.
“Let’s come up with a strategy first!”
The doctor shouted in an excited voice.
“There are about 50 monsters inside the base! We need to lure out at least 20 of them so that the North Gate team and Mr. Labo can comfortably carry out their assigned roles!”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“But the average level of Living Armor is a whopping 99! Even if you are experts who have mastered Wings, this level difference, this numerical difference, is difficult to handle!”
“… … .”
“… … .”
“So I’ve come up with a plan! If we do this, we can effectively draw out the enemy and neutralize them! And if we kill more of them than the North Gate team, our pride will be… .”
The doctor, who had been talking for a long time, closed his mouth. It was because Oldman and Uggle King were looking at him with blank eyes.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I usually play solo, so I guess I got excited without realizing it because we had a party all of a sudden. Haha, did I just say what I wanted to say?”
Oldman and Uggle King, who had been quietly watching the doctor, each took out a hammer and a crossbow, and headed towards the south gate of the base.
“Hey, guys? Where are you going? You have to hear my plan before you go!”
Aggle King glared at the doctor who was crying out desperately.
“It’s just going to attract attention anyway. Is there a need to plan something complicated? Just go all out and bang!”
“Haha. Aesong-i, how is it that you and I have the same opinion?”
Oldman smiled contentedly and stroked his beard. Uggle King made a face of disgust.
“Shut up, No-ttang. Don’t treat me like you. I think I smell like Grandpa too.”
“Grandpa’s smell? What does grandpa smell like? Does Jim smell like that?”
“No, I’m not really flying, but I feel like I’m flying. You know, it smells like red ginseng candy… .”
“Red ginseng candy? How did you know Jim liked that?”
“… …Stop talking, stop talking.”
Living Armor entered the range of Aggle King, who was shaking his head.
Aggler King aimed his twin crossbows forward and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
“Rain of Arrows!”
The archer class’s #1 preferred skill, Arrow Bombardment! Rain of Arrows has been cast.
Toodoodoodoo!
Arrows poured down like a shower, covering the base and striking the Living Armors.
Living armors that detected the enemy poured out of the base.
Knock knock knock!
Oldman raised his hammer at the oncoming horde of Living Armor.
And, honestly, I took a look.
“Overturn everything! Tear the world apart!”
Cookies and cookies!
The impact of the hammer caused the ground in the area to collapse simultaneously, and the Living Armors that had been running towards them were all shattered into pieces.
“Hmm~ How refreshing! This is what a battle should be like!”
Oldman contentedly lifted the hammer and slung it over his shoulder.
“… … .”
The doctor was watching from behind, as if he was tired of the scene.
