The last 8 games of the 1st round of Territory Conquest.
Since Team USA is a member of the group, a fairly acrobatic match was unfolding.
“They’re my kids, but they’re so perfect.”
VVIP room.
The Red Mage Tower Lord, James Piller, who had just finished work, stroked his chin and laughed out loud.
Dahlia is also Dahlia, but Sarah and Meili are also members of the Mage Tower belonging to the Red Mage Tower.
Since those three are showing their prominence in the game, it was natural for the owner of the tower to be happy.
“Hmm. Of course, I thought it would be a 1:7 composition. I guess Sara made some arrangements beforehand?”
“of course.”
Due to the nature of territorial warfare, in which 8 teams participate in battle at the same time, usually the strongest team is attacked intensively.
How to shed this concentrated attack is an essential victory condition for a strong team.
“I can tell just by looking at the movement. Sarah really rocked the other 7 teams.”
Kim Kang-in laughs meaningfully and Sarah Ceylon. I stared at the actual brains of the American team.
“What kind of move did you use to get the 7 teams scattered like that?”
Despite the situation where it is difficult to win even if we stick together, all 7 teams are not cooperating with anyone.
Thanks to that, the United States is currently contending for territories without being hindered by anyone.
This makes 54 territories owned by the United States. A whopping 1/4 of its 225 territories is owned by the United States.
“It must have been an altercation while negotiating with the other teams. It makes you doubt, breaks trust, and encourages betrayal. That’s how it naturally led to melee.”
Min Ga-yeon said with an expression of ‘I can see it.’
“Whatever it is, it’s over. I don’t need to see more.”
Min Ga-yeon sat down with eyes that had lost interest.
As it is, push the back of the chair back and lie down with the back of the neck clasped.
“well. I think there are still opportunities for other teams. There are teams coming out that want to cooperate.”
Kim Kang-in offered a hopeful opinion.
“under. You’re talking what sports commentators say.”
Min Ga-yeon smiled.
Standing on the side of the weak and giving hopeful words, it was just like a sports commentator.
“Of course, other teams will have opportunities. Even though the chance of seizing that opportunity is less than 1%.”
Less than 1% hope.
In other words, it is a miracle.
In other words, unless a miracle happens, the United States will not be defeated.
“With more than 50 domains, they have been condensed into one. No team can break through that.”
There are 225 territories in the territorial battle. It is impossible to conquer and protect such a vast territory with only 24 people.
That’s why there is a rule called ‘territory concentration’ in territorial scramble.
It’s a rule that allows you to combine areas in units of 10.
In this way, it becomes much easier to protect the ‘altar’, which is the center of the realm.
Of course, not everything that is concentrated is good.
Making 10 areas into one means that 10 areas will be taken away at once if another team loses them.
Rather, considering the risk of being taken away at once, it can be said that concentrating the area has a greater penalty.
There is also an increased chance that multiple teams will attack en masse, aiming for one shot.
Of course, it’s not just penalties.
To mitigate this penalty, there is another rule called ‘territory buff’ in territorial contests.
It’s a rule that allows you to receive a ‘buff’ if you fight in your own area.
It’s just a minor buff that increases damage by 3% and reduces damage when there is only one area.
If you combine 10 areas with area focus, the effect of the buff will increase significantly.
Increases damage dealt to opponents by 15% and reduces damage taken by yourself by 15%.
This 15% is unexpectedly balanced, so the penalty and merit of concentrating 10 areas are roughly balanced.
And this area concentration can be woven not in 10 units, but in 50 units.
If you weave 50 areas, the buff you get is 40% damage increase and 40% damage reduction.
When occupied, 50 areas can be taken away, so it gives a huge buff.
This is exactly the situation in the United States right now.
The United States has grouped 50 territories into one.
Thanks to that, the combat power of the already strong US team has increased significantly.
“Now, if all 7 teams come together, no one Dahlia can win.”
No team can stop Dahlia with such powerful buffs.
“Well, I don’t know if Kyle and Shin Ha-yul hold hands and attack again.”
And as Min Ga-yeon expected, the match ended with an overwhelming victory for the United States.
* * *
All eight games of the first round of the competition for territory, which is the schedule for the ninth day of the Olympiad, have been completed.
“here. Please check the artifact.”
I went to the workshop where the engineers from the Blue Mage Tower were waiting and handed over the artifacts I used today, Ma Jinseok, and Shinwoo Kang.
“hmm. Quite a twist.”
“yes. In many ways, because of the ‘buff system’ of Territory Conquest… … .”
“Tsk. It’s for the excitement of the game, but I don’t like it when the artifact is overworked.”
Territory buffs in Territory Conquest are a system implemented with ‘barriers’ and ‘artifacts for competition’ that are spread throughout the realm.
As much as that, of course there is no choice but to damage the artifact.
“Anyway, let’s get it perfectly tuned by tomorrow morning.”

“yes. Please.”
I left the three rings and went back to the bus where everyone was waiting.
“I am here.”
After that, after lightly conveying the artifact-related news to everyone, the bus departed.
“New leader. You sounded very devilish today?”
Senior Jin Hee-yoon, who was sitting in the seat in front of me, turned his body 180 degrees and looked at me while leaning against the back of the chair.
“Am I? I didn’t even use the 5th circle magic today?”
“no. no magic He said that his ability to shake people with his words was very devilish.”
Senior Hee-yoon wiggled his hands with a sinister expression as if imitating the devil.
It’s not a devil, it’s like a playful goblin.
“Wow.”
Ma Jin-seok, who was sitting next to me, pretended to throw up.
“You’re welcome, Evande.”
It seems that Jin Hee-yoon sunbae’s acting was accepted as being cute.
“huh. Shut up, Jin-seok, who was quietly carried today.”
“huh. Even Hee-yoon, who was sitting on the bench for 8 hours today, shut up.”
“Do you want to go back?”
“Do you want to die?”
An electric current bounced between the two eyes. Who’s even betting who can wear a dreadlocks face, her face is incredible.
After that, the usual bickering between the two seniors began.
Well, it happens all the time, so I don’t even care anymore.
“Did you have a nice day today?”
Soon-chan, who was sitting next to Hee-yoon, turned and turned his head toward me.
“what?”
“It was an art to play with other teams with words. Big. Who would have known that Germany would fall like this in the first round.”
“Well, it’s self-employed.”
Germany, currently ranked 4th, suffered the fate of being eliminated in the first round.
Germany’s failure was not to hold my hand because of pride.
“Anyway, I need to know your devilish way of speaking. Lightly evade the opponent’s attack, subdue the atmosphere at once, and immediately make a mouth-watering proposal!”
Soon-chan exclaimed with a loud ‘creepy’ sound.
“Honestly, in the first round, the opponent was clumsy. It happens because we try to tie all 7 teams together in the first round, where only 4 people can pass.”
In a game where only 4 players can pass, if all 7 teams form an alliance, will trust be built?
“but. If it were me, I would stick to Korea right away. Just like Italy did in Game 4.”
4 games in round 1.
The Italian team teamed up with the British team and went through to the second round very comfortably. It was clever in many ways.
“At this rate, you’ll be able to eat it raw even the second time?”
“no. The second round won’t be as easy as today.”
The winner of the 2nd match is 2 teams per group.
As it is a fierce match where 6 teams fall, it will unfold in a completely different aspect from the first round.
There must be a lot more variables, and the opponent won’t move the way I think.
“Tsasha. What do you eat raw?”
“Ah, sister. Why are you hitting me?”
As if the argument was over, Jin Hee-yoon slapped Soon-chan in the back of the head.
“If you’re put in the same group as England or America tomorrow, I think it’s because it’s all your fault.”
“Why is it my fault again?”
“You just raised the flag. Defeat flag.”
“No, what is the flag… … .”
This time, Jin Hee-yoon and Soon-chan started bickering.
It’s proof that the two of them have become that close, but… … .
“What kind of dog is he? If you just talk to someone, they fight.”
My shoulders trembled at Ma Jin-seok’s words. For a moment, I thought I was reading my mind.
“sister. Could you be quiet for a bit?”
At that time, Adela, who was sitting in the seat next to her and reading a book, said a word.
“Ah, you were reading our index book. sorry. I’ll turn the volume down.”
Jin Hee-yoon smiled with a kind expression on his face, as if asking when he had fought.
“Adela is a beast trainer.”
“What, naughty?”
As if he had heard it correctly this time, Jin Hee-yoon’s eyes shone brightly again.
“sister?”
“Oh sorry.”
However, one word from Adela quickly calmed them down.
Just like Ma Jin-seok said, he is like a real wild beast and beast trainer.
“hmm. I must hope that we won’t be in the same group as England and America in the second round tomorrow.”
Kang Shin-woo, who had been quietly holding the weight all along, spat out a word.
“It would be nice to be in a different group if possible.”
It’s an opponent to beat anyway, but there’s no need to fight from the second playthrough.
In the second round, it is best to be placed in a different group with England and the United States comfortably, and to compete in the final, which is the third round.
“don’t worry. If tomorrow we are in the same group as Britain and the United States, I will kill Soon-chan first.”
Jin Hee-yoon smiled brightly at the world.
* * *
and the next day.
“sister! I’m sister! I die! die!”
“You bastard! It’s not because you said that yesterday!”
Jin Hee-yoon was putting a headlock on Sun-chan with a stern expression.
“No! Does it make sense that I said something like that yesterday?”
Soon-chan shouted with an expression of regret for the world.
“Because of a bastard like you, my rank is… … !”
rank? What do you mean?
“It refers to the rank score of Hee-yoon’s game. Even if you always win there, you lose like lightning when someone on the team chats with the nuance of “Did you win?” It’s kind of a jinx.”
“aha.”
So yesterday, you set a flag for Soon-chan.
“hmm. It’s England… … .”
Looking at the match schedule that just came out today, Kang Shin-woo blurted his words meaningfully.
[Territory Conquest 2nd round 1 game]
[Korea, UK, Japan, China, India, Canada, Russia, Saudi Arabia]
Unfortunately, we ended up in the same group as England in the second round.
“Oh really. You’re doing too much! Treating a person as a criminal for making a joke… … Aaaagh! sick! It hurts!”
In my opinion, Sunchan is not even 0.1% at fault. Let’s just let the unfair Soon-chan sit there for a while.
“hmm. So what to do? First of all, there are about three strategies that come to mind.”
Senior Ma Jin-seok came out and approached senior Kang Shin-woo with a thoughtful expression.
Two eyes are focused on me.
It is the look of the eyes asking how to play the 2nd game.
“hmm… … I think… … .”
It was time to give my opinion.
“Hi! korean bro!”
Along with the sound of the door to the Korean team’s waiting room opening, a refreshing tone of bass was heard.
“It’s been a while since we had a direct conversation like this, right?”
A British handsome man whose charm is even though he has moderately grown blonde hair.
Kyle Ventia.
He smiled brightly and stood in front of me. Then he looked straight into my eyes and said:
“I came to make an offer. Are you okay now?”
