Episode 72
The crescent bear of the 3rd wave.
Even if we put aside the fact that it was Lv.150, the number was too high.
“Are you okay?! There’s too much!”
Yeo Min-ji quickly took a stance and shouted while firing the most damaging attack, Myung-kwon, at the abdomen of the rushing crescent moon bear.
“it’s okay.”
“Are you okay… …?”
There are too many numbers.
There were only a few hundred of them visible to the naked eye.
Even if the level and all abilities were not adjusted to 150, it would be more than enough to hunt this much.
Of course, they were somehow covering it up with items, but it wasn’t enough to hunt that many.
It was the same for Jeong-Hoon, but Jeong-Hoon still had one last trick up his sleeve.
‘Should I start using it?’
===
[Ability Boost Ring (One-time)]
-Type: Ring
-Rating: Epic
– Special Ability (1): When the ring’s magic power is drawn out, all of the wearer’s abilities are temporarily increased by 50%.
– Special Ability (2): Damage from all opponents’ abilities and attacks is reduced by 50%.
-Once used, the ring can no longer be used.
===
An item received by opening an unknown box.
To be honest, I wouldn’t say it’s an incredibly great item, but it was an item that Jeong-Hoon absolutely needed.
Because I knew that the same thing would happen right now.
Jeonghoon focused his magical power on the ring he was wearing on his index finger.
Then the jewel in the ring turned red and immediately released its power.
[All abilities increase by 50%.]
[50% damage reduction applies.]
[The time limit is ‘1 hour’.]
All abilities increased by 50% for 1 hour, becoming ‘225’.
“Ability boosting item?!”
Yeo Min-ji immediately recognized the change in Jeong-hoon’s demeanor.
You’ll get to watch up close as they use ability boosting items that are known to be nearly impossible to obtain.
Where on earth did you get such an item?
“It’s a one-time thing, so it’s not that valuable.”
Jeonghoon started hunting the Asiatic black bears that were rushing towards him, speaking nonchalantly.
“Let’s join too!”
Hajin, who was watching from behind, also drew his sword and struck the rushing crescent bear.
“Kuwoah!”
“f*ck! You don’t die in one go.”
Hajin continued to swing his sword while cursing.
At that moment, two crescent bears rushed at Hajin.
“It’s dangerous!”
Yeo Min-ji stopped the crescent bear heading towards Ha-jin.
So the hunt began, and as time passed, the carcasses of the Asiatic black bears piled up.
Of course, more than 80% of them were hunted by Jeonghoon alone.
Only when we had hunted about 400 to 500 of them did users finally join.
“Hey! We have to catch it quickly too!”
While Jeonghoon and Yeominji were beating up the remaining crescent bears, the users quickly joined in and took care of the remaining crescent bears.
[The 3rd Monster Wave has ended.]
[Current base damage: 0.256%]
The base’s damage is 0.25%.
The figure was over a quarter of 1%.
‘I think I can stop it for sure at this level.’
The last one was a boss of Lv.170.
[Gyeonggi Uijeongbu 1% damage! The siege ends!]
[Chungbuk Cheongju 1% damage! The siege ends!]
[Gyeongnam Geoje 1% damage! The siege ends!]
[Jeonbuk Gunsan 1% damage! The siege ends!]
[Gyeonggi Paju 1% damage! The siege ends!]
… …
As Wave 3 ended, countless notifications began to appear.
[All areas of South Korea except Seoul were completely destroyed.]
“What? There’s only one Seoul left?”
“Then, if we can’t defend Seoul, is the Republic of Korea finished… …?”
The users’ faces were filled with confusion.
I never dreamed that in the third wave, the entire region except Seoul would collapse.
‘Originally, Seoul should have ended too.’

South Korea will end without even seeing the 4th Wave.
It was the same in other countries.
Is it possible for an event comprised of PC room users to move this meticulously in the first place?
Jeonghoon knew that no country had successfully defended a siege during this event.
The event was a huge failure.
It becomes the cause of the Earth starting to suffer from all kinds of natural disasters.
“Are you okay?”
Yeo Min-ji approached Jeong-hoon and examined his body.
“Yes, I’m fine.”
Jeonghoon’s body was the same as before the battle.
There were no small details.
This is because I healed my body using intermediate healing that had been upgraded to epic grade.
Yeo Min-ji, who didn’t know that, stuck out her tongue.
“… … If it had been someone else, I wouldn’t have been able to endure it.”
Even if you use ability boosting items, it is impossible to handle hundreds of level 150 crescent bears alone.
Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
At that moment, applause filled Namsan.
And then, NPC Lingling appeared in the air as a hologram.
“I think it was a really good decision to take charge of the South Korean server. I never would have imagined that they would be able to completely block the 3rd Wave.”
The sudden appearance of an event NPC caused a stir among users.
“That NPC?”
“What, why are you coming out of there?”
“Is this siege over?”
Lingling burst into laughter, seemingly pleased with the users’ reactions.
“The siege isn’t over yet. I came here to make you a proposition.”
Lingling’s gaze was secretly directed at Jeonghoon.
Because he was the number one contributor to this siege.
[4th Wave Difficulty Increase]
A large holographic message appeared next to Lingling.
“Difficulty increased?”
“Are you going to make the difficulty level higher than it is now?”
Users muttered with bewildered expressions.
As if she had expected such a reaction, Lingling added.
“If you succeed, I will give you a very special reward. It is a reward you will never regret.”
Then, the rewards started to appear.
Starting with one level up from your current job rank, a skill book containing unique grade weapons, armor, and rare skills.
Even chests containing tens of thousands of gold.
When the rewards became visible, the users’ eyes lit up.
“Are you really going to give me that?”
“Wow… … This is crazy.”
“I’m a Rare, does that mean I can immediately upgrade to Epic?”
It was too tempting a reward to refuse.
Even without that, it is difficult to expect a high ranking because he joined late.
I decided that it would be better to raise the difficulty level and get some rewards.
“What do you think? Should I do it? By the way, those rewards are given out randomly.”
The users looked at each other and nodded.
“Do it.”
“Me too!”
“You absolutely must do it!”
When the majority accepted the proposal, the corners of Lingling’s mouth went up.
At the same time, Jeong-Hoon’s face hardened slightly.
Are you saying that this is how you’re going to make a bet?
“Okay. Then let’s get started right away!”
Lingling snapped her fingers and disappeared.
[The difficulty of the 4th Monster Wave increases.]
[The 4th Monster Wave begins.]
As the 4th Monster Wave began, a gigantic gate the likes of which had never been seen before was created.
A monster slithered through the gate.
[Lv.175 Dragonia]
A monster shaped like a giant dragon.
Users were left speechless by Dragonia’s majesty.
“Dragonia… …?”
Yeo Min-ji’s face also hardened.
Dragonia’s original level is 420.
Even rankers over level 400 were unable to recklessly challenge it, and the number of Dragonias defeated so far could be counted on one hand.
Such a dragonia appeared with its level lowered to 175.
“Why Dragonia… … ?”
Dragonia’s notoriety was well known to users.
The reason was because of the abilities he used.
‘destruction.’
Users who are annihilated will have only 1% of their vitality, magic power, and divine power remaining.
Moreover, recovery is limited to 30 seconds, so it cannot be recovered through potions or skills.
Literally a masterstroke ability.
So, it is said that if you do not have a skill to neutralize the ability, it is wise to give up on conquering Dragonia.
“But, wouldn’t it be impossible to use extinction…?”
The only good thing is that Dragonia’s current level is 175.
Even at level 420, I didn’t use Extinction many times, but at level 175, it was possible that I wouldn’t use Extinction.
“Yeah! I’m going to use the water to get the hang of it!”
Even if it’s Dragonia, it won’t be able to handle that many users.
They gathered together as a party and moved to attack Dragonia.
“You damn humans!”
Then, Dragonia opened her mouth wide and prepared her breath.
“B, breath!”
“Firewall! Firewall!”
You must not let Dragonia use her breath.
Even though the expedition is an expedition, you also need to be careful about defending the base so that it is not damaged.
The wizards quickly deployed a defensive wall with a 500m radius centered around Namsan.
And then Dragonia breathed the breath she had prepared.
[Dragonia uses ‘Breath’.]
The breath hit the defensive wall as it was emitted.
Wow!
The defensive wall could not withstand the breath and was shattered.
Still, it wasn’t ineffective.
Since it was a Lv.175 breath, it was absorbed to some extent by the overlapping defensive walls, and the remaining fragments were scattered around.
[The base is destroyed!]
[Damage: 0.261%]
“Attack!”
Since you just used your breath, it will take some time before you can use your next breath.
The users launched an all-out attack to pressure Dragonia during that gap.
however
[Dragonia uses ‘Extinction’.]
[All people’s vitality, magic power, and divine power are reduced by 1%.]
[Recovery is not possible for 30 seconds.]
Users were annihilated and had all their vitality, magic power, and divine power reduced to 1%.
Because of that, the skills I had prepared disappeared due to lack of magic power, and healing could not be recovered because it could not be recovered for 30 seconds.
The users’ faces turned pale.
“This is crazy!”
“You’ve been reduced to Lv.175?! Why are you using Extinction!”
Dragonia looked satisfied with the users’ reactions and sent out a shockwave.
Then, users with 1% life left could not withstand the shockwave and disappeared from that spot.
He is dead.
“damage!”
You are now under Extinction and must flee from Dragonia for 30 seconds.
“Then what about the base?!”
[The base is destroyed!]
[Damage: 0.282%]
As the Dragonia flew, the damage to the stronghold increased rapidly.
If things continue like this, we’ll soon reach 1%.
At that moment, a user stepped forward.
He was none other than Jeong Hoon.
‘Even if we’re extinct, it’s okay because 50% remains.’
Jeonghoon’s body is currently under the effects of the ability amplification ring.
Even though he was annihilated, Jeonghoon still had half of his life left as he was neutralized by 50%.
“Huh? You’re the martial artist that was with Yeo Min-ji, right?”
“What are you trying to do by yourself?”
The users who were running away from Dragonia looked at Jeonghoon with bewildered faces.
‘Dragonia, you can hunt well.’
Jeonghoon had experience in subduing Dragonia.
That’s why he knew better than anyone that as long as he was careful not to be exterminated, there was nothing he could do.
‘His weakness is his defense.’
Dragonia was not a real dragon.
A monster that failed to become a dragon due to mutation.
Although it has powerful abilities, its defense is weak.
Well, it’s just that their defense is lower than that of level 400 characters.
It was stronger than those in the mid to late level 300s.
However, the current Dragonia is level 175.
If it was Jeonghoon whose abilities had been amplified, I was confident that I could take his life in one breath.
“Let’s finish this quickly.”
Jeonghoon pulled the bowstring.
“What? You’re an inferior race.”
Anima took a quick look at the giant dragonia and then turned away.
“Nooooooh!”
Dragonia cried out in indignation.
Dragon Fear.
Dragon race can sense each other’s energy.
So, the appearance of Anima caused an explosion of inferiority complex.
“He’s a noisy guy.”
Anima raised her short arms and pretended to cover her ears.
“Let’s finish this quickly.”
Jeonghoon pulled the trigger.
Jeonghoon went through several trials and errors to conquer Dragonia and figured out its weaknesses.
He finally released the string he had been holding, and the arrow was fired.
The arrow fired hit Dragonia near her left chest.
“Kwaaah!”
Dragonia screamed as the arrow struck.
[Debuff, ‘All abilities reduced by 1%’ activated]
[Dragonia becomes incapacitated for 7 seconds.]
[All of Dragonia’s abilities are sealed for 10 seconds.]
One of Anima’s abilities is a random debuff that activates with a low probability.
“The odds are really low.”
Isn’t this the first time you’ve gotten a debuff?
Honestly, I even forgot that it had a debuff option.
Even after Uradon, black flames have not bloomed even once.
Even if it’s only 0.1%, isn’t that just really bad luck?
As Jeonghoon muttered softly, Anima blushed and screamed.
“Hey! This is great for a river!”
Anima evolved from Unique grade to Legendary grade, but has not been strengthened at all.
In fact, it was impossible to strengthen Anima at its current level.
In order to strengthen Anima, you need a Legendary Strengthening Stone, but the problem is that there is almost no supply of these Legendary Strengthening Stones, and the strengthening success rate is so low that no users even attempt to strengthen them.
Well, this problem will be solved sooner or later.
“Who said what?”
“Your expression was completely cursing me?”
“I must be mistaken.”
Jeonghoon protested again.
“You’re flirting in front of me… … How far are you going to mock me!”
The guy shouted at Jeong-Hoon with bloodshot eyes.
But Jeonghoon knew that it was directed at Anima.
Because the Dragons were considered inferior and were rejected by the Dragons.
“Stop making so much noise and just die.”
Jeong-Hoon let go of the bow he had been pulling, and the arrow was embedded in the same spot as before.
“Kwaaak!”
The bastard tried to scream and twist his body, but his body was frozen and he couldn’t.
Jeonghun shot arrows repeatedly.
When the nine arrows were fired, Dragonia fell to the ground.
