Genius Archer Streaming Season 3 Episode 84
30. Okay, Again (1)
After the game, and even the meeting, almost half a day had passed.
Cheeeeek… … !
Only then did Heechul get up from the capsule.
“Whew.”
Since he used a capsule in his hideout during the competition, it was not his wife but his think tank team waiting for him.
“Wow!”
“Cookies! Cookies! Cookies!”
They all waited for Heechul to appear and waved their placards like fans.
“Haha. What is this… … .”
Even in the first victory, there was no era name like this.
Everyone at the think tank seemed incredibly excited today.
This victory is a much more valuable victory from the think tank’s perspective.
“I never thought I’d end it in the first era!”
“If it’s like this, isn’t it something we can do in the second game too?”
“of course!”
This match was won without using any prepared strategy.
The defensive tower control was actually just a stepping stone to go to 3 eras at the same time, but it won the game by itself.
“The players just fought well. Nothing special.”
“No, bro! But it’s amazing that you can make a decision right there!”
The think tank team was right.
In such big games, you usually play with a prepared strategy.
After all, it is done by people, so in big games like national competitions, the tension tends to be high. It is very difficult to control all the variables that come up in such situations.
However, Cookie took the risk and pushed forward to end the first era, believing in the players’ abilities.
It seems like you’ve successfully made a big decision on a big stage.
It wouldn’t be surprising if it was highly rated.
“Look, bro. Even the foreign media is praising him and it’s a mess right now.”
Gobspear, who is quick to get information from overseas, pushes the pad in.
Civil Empire is so popular in the West that game articles usually refer to English-language articles.
This article was published in ‘7chans’, an overseas gaming webzine.
[Spain got “Schooled” by Cookie the Commander of South Korea]
(Spain gets a real education from Korean commander Cookie)
The content of the article that described it as ‘true education’ was not an exaggeration.
In fact, everything from Spain’s reconnaissance strategy to cookies and think tanks had already been predicted.
Cookie’s strategy was always one step ahead of Spain’s.
It’s something that plays on the palm of your hand.
Cookie smiled cheerfully and liked it.
“Haha… … Yeah. That’s good. Things like this come out too.”
As a commander, this must have been the greatest honor. He looked away, embarrassed to read such praise.
“Oh. And there’s an article about Almond too!”
“almond?”
“yes!”
Heechul turns his head again, as if he is interested in the article about almonds.
[Hot Rookie Spotlight: AAlmond]
(Get to know the hot newcomer: Almond)
This is a series of articles that pick the best new talent of the season, which is usually posted on 7chans when there is a national competition.
Among them, Korean almonds were selected.
“This…….”
Heechul was already a promising commander under the original name ‘Cookie’.
It wasn’t unusual for an article to appear, but it was significant that an article about almonds appeared.
In particular, this series of articles on selecting new talents is never written except when the talent is really new.
“If I do this, I’ll automatically be nominated for the Rookie of the Year award.”
Heechul, who was reading the article, smiled and said.
“That’s right. It’s been a while since a Korean athlete was featured here… … .”
Since they have to win first to get noticed, no Korean player has been featured in this series of articles for a really long time.
Moreover, since this game is not that popular in Korea, the number of new players is decreasing.
“Anyway, it’s good news. The fact that there’s interest in our team in the English-speaking world means we did well. However… … .”
Heechul had some concerns.
“It will be easier to analyze.”
If articles like Almond’s new article, Heechul’s true education, etc. come out, it will attract the attention of other teams.
If that happens, other strong teams that did not consider Joseon as a rival at all will now be on edge.
Joseon’s victories so far were largely due to the complacency of the opponents, so while this attention was welcome, it was not something to be entirely happy about.
“That’s right. I don’t think Rome… … will underestimate me and approach the game with that in mind.”
Chi Seung-do added that he was a little nervous.
‘Rome is already the toughest opponent in this group.’
In a way, it was unfortunate that I met Rome so late.
They will be confident that Joseon will prepare something, and they will prepare something too.

‘If it’s the Antoinette I know, I’ll definitely prepare.’
Roma won’t be like the other two teams.
I will definitely prepare.
“I think so too. That’s why… … .”
Heechul gathered the think tank team together and asked them one question.
“I think we need to do some calculations on the possibility of advancing to the finals.”
“Demand for cases?!”
Everyone in the think tank was surprised and asked back.
Well, there are two rounds in each group.
It’s a bit premature to look for possible outcomes when the first round hasn’t even ended yet.
Moreover, at this point, calculating the number of cases itself is difficult because there are so many cases.
“We have to think about what scenarios we could take to advance, assuming Roma wins all their other matches.”
“… … !”
Chi Seung was amazing.
‘It’s surprisingly realistic.’
After all, being human, when we are intoxicated by successive victories, we tend to forget our own position for a moment.
But the moment Heechul came out of the capsule, he immediately returned to his original cool-headed strategist state.
“If you watched the Roma game, you know it’s hard to believe they won’t qualify.”
Everyone nodded.
Rome was strong.
From the civilization faction to the players and commanders, it was a team without weaknesses.
As Rome once was.
“Ultimately, there is only one spot left to advance to the main tournament. Find out the possible scenarios for getting this one spot. The case where we lose to Roma twice. The case where we lose once.”
“yes.”
The think tank went straight to the math.
Some may say that it is like kimchi stew, but this was a factor that Joseon, which pursued an unconventional game, had to consider.
The same anomaly is unlikely to work more than once.
You have to save as much as you can within the range you can afford.
Because there are games after the main event.
Heechul was already looking beyond that.
‘I can go… … .’
Not only Heechul, but everyone in the think tank, including Chi Seung and Mandu, thought the same thing.
Whether they win or lose to Rome, Joseon will cross the threshold to the main tournament.
They spend their days like that, burning hot.

next day.
Civil Empire Korea Branch.
There sat the passionate temple girl, Elicia.
She was quietly looking at something.
It was an interview scene.
[You showed us a huge ceremony at the end. Can you tell us what it means?]
This is none other than Almond’s interview scene.
This is a video uploaded separately on Almond’s channel.
It was a video that was uploaded without an embargo, saying that it wasn’t a match video.
In fact, there was nothing to say because the broadcasting rights for national competitions only applied to the game videos.
Elicia also didn’t ask to argue about this.
We ask ourselves whether we should do this too.
[Almond Interview Reveals Number!? Reporter’s Pupil Earthquake]
[Views 1.408 million]
The video uploaded last night has surpassed 1.4 million views this morning.
Elysia, looking at the number, mutters with a serious expression.
“Boss, shouldn’t we be doing something more?”
One interview video has more views than the broadcast video.
Isn’t this humiliating!
Meanwhile, the manager proudly patted his ample belly and raised his nose.
“Huh? You’re already doing it, Elysia. You’ve prepared a new user event and spread the word in the community. Didn’t you see that ReelPro ate it all up? Hmm. Hmm.”
“No! Not that kind of backstabbing!”
The manager is startled by the word ‘backlighting’.
“Oh, no. Back, back advertisement? They do it all! They do it all!”
“How about we make a video about the players too!”
“Players?”
The manager’s ears twitched.
It looks refreshing.
“No matter how fun the game is, if people don’t know about the players, it’s half as fun. Look at it now! The Almond interview video has more views than the full version of our national team match uploaded.”
“Ah… … That’s right… … But still, in terms of global views… … .”
“What do global views mean to us?”
“Ugh… … .”
This is the Korean branch.
Korea is where views matter.
It is a place established with the goal of promoting Civil M in Korea.
So the manager opened his ears.
“We’re not going to post the interview together, are we? What are you going to do?”
“That’s right. Even if we bring an interview, we’ll just end up splitting the views anyway.”
“yes.”
Simply claiming the right to an almond interview is like stealing the other person’s pie.
They were in a position where they had to grow the pie, but even if they took from the other side, the total size would be the same.
Elysia had an idea.
“I think… … How about something like this?”
I’m putting out a video about the League of Legends Cup.
To be exact, it is not the League of Legends Cup, but a video run by a team participating in the League of Legends Cup.
“Team documentary?”
This is a documentary video that adds a narrative to scenes of team members training or receiving feedback.
It’s surprisingly popular.
Many people become fans of the team after seeing this video.
“So, are you saying we should apply this team documentary to our national team?”
“yes!”
“You have to understand that we have 200 players. 200. If they only play as starters, they only have five.”
“ah…….”
Elicia became sullen.
However, the manager decides to look into it.
“But I don’t think it’s a completely absurd story.”
It seemed possible.
Even if we don’t light all 200 people, there seems to be a way.
“For example, filming only the command center in charge of the brain. Or the scene where the think tank team is struggling… … It would be fine to film the minimum number of players. Only the players who received attention in that game.”
“Oh… …! Right? I think this is good!”
Elicia takes out all the sports documentaries she used to watch and starts talking about this and that.
Meanwhile, the gap between the number of views for Almond’s interview video and the number of views for the full version uploaded video began to widen.
* * *
Zia woke up late.
Her eyes widen when she checks the number of video views.
“Why are the views like this?”
[Almond Interview Reveals Number!? Reporter’s Pupil Earthquake]
[Views 1.761 million]
Not only in Korea, but also overseas, the number of views was also very high.
“If we do well, we can reach 3 million.”
I’ve never had a day where I went over 3 million.
It seemed like maybe this bizarre interview video would get 3 million views.
“This month’s earnings might be almost covered.”
Because I couldn’t upload videos often due to the Civil Empire National Competition, I was thinking about holding off on this month’s earnings.
But, I didn’t expect the interview to get such a good response.
“You’re making people expect something like this again~”
While Jia was thinking happy thoughts.
Jiying.
A text arrives on her phone.
[Solid Card]
[Hello, customer. Notice of delinquency due to account freeze… … .]
Jia tilts her head.
“… … ?”
She looked at the monitor again.
A video of almonds in their prime.
And then I look at my phone again.
“Freeze? Overdue?”
Notification that your card payment is overdue.
Even the account was frozen and overdue.
These two pieces of information did not add up in her head at all.
“What─”
──Suddenly.
She suddenly got up from her seat as if something had occurred to her.
“no way.”
I got dressed right away and headed to the nearest bank.
It didn’t seem like something that could be resolved over the phone.
