#180
180. Just for once (4)
the next morning.
The opening ceremony of the Raid Festa has begun.
It was a place where the Mobius representative gave a speech and briefly explained the rules.
Here I could see the exact schedule of events.
Raid Festa is held over three days.
On the first day, the opening ceremony and the preliminaries for the three major events are held, the second day is the main round, and the third day is the upper round and finals.
And there were small mini-events in between schedules.
Originally, Mobius and Earth have different time flows, but it is said that the head office aligned the time axis for this Festa.
All special events are held in different places, so we had to split up after the opening ceremony.
Of course, Katio was roasted and boiled, so he was equipped with a portable communication device, so he could prepare for the unexpected. I immediately took a transportation bus and moved to the event venue.
On the way, I once again reflected on the things I heard at the opening ceremony.
One is that even if you die in a dimensional city, you can resurrect without deteriorating your abilities. However, once a hero is revived, he loses his eligibility to participate in the event. The two were that the recovery ability of the waiting room was not heard here.
‘… … .’
Did you say you would come back if you won the tournament?
Aaron’s voice rang in his ears. It’s not like it was said as a joke. After Aaron had a brief conversation with me, he immediately went back to prepare for the tournament.
‘I’m curious.’
In the individual event, Belquist went out.
I wanted to see the situation up close if possible. For this… … .
‘I have no choice but to finish it as quickly as possible.’
If you look at the schedule, the individual exhibition will be held the latest.
If we finish this qualifying match at high speed, we may be able to visit the site of the individual competition.
I’ll have to do my part first.
I looked out the window. The four-lane road was full of transport buses. All of them were heroes participating in random events. This event had a very large number of participants.
It has to be.
As rumors spread that Niflheim would participate in the individual and team competitions, more and more people gave up the event. On the other hand, a lot of applicants flocked to the random event that Niflheim was not participating in.
‘It seems that overall victory isn’t the goal.’
Looking at the fact that he gave up one event, it seems that he was trying to give excellent trainees practical experience.
It seemed that there was not much greed in the 5-star confirmation ticket.
‘I can’t say anything about this.’
This Festa was an event for non-rankers.
Right now, rankers couldn’t afford to spend time on trivial pranks like this. It was a time when he was busy with the groundwork for the World Raid. In other words, Niflheim gave up on this raid.
Rare ingredients rotted away anyway, so it didn’t matter if I filtered it once.
After a while the bus stopped.
All participants, including myself, were guided by a staff member waiting in the parking lot and entered the huge dome-shaped playground.
“You can wait here. The person in charge will come soon.”
The female employee who stopped us in the large auditorium quickly walked out.
“What are you going to do here?”
“I mean. It’s a weird-looking facility, but it doesn’t look like anything special.”
“Why are you so late! Call the person in charge quickly!”
buzz buzz.
The entire dome resonated with the noise of thousands of people.
I was leaning against the wall in the corner of the indoor playground.
‘There are too many of them.’
Only one of them can win a prize along with the prize.
It was a rather poignant event.
After waiting for a few minutes, a small dot appeared on the lectern in front of me.
He flapped his two pairs of wings, folded them, and sat down on the lectern.
[Heroes who participated in this event!]
said the person in charge.
Her black hair was braided long, and she was wearing a fitted women’s suit.
The red cheeks were swollen like puff pastry.
[Nice to meet you all! Everyone has the dignity of a hero. Thank you for participating in this shipyard royale that I was in charge of. Because you really have an eye for it. I was thrilled with the enthusiastic support.]
The fairy covered her mouth and giggled.
Behind them, the Moebius Temples are lined up with their hands behind their backs.
It was quite a unique landscape.
[If you’re going to say me… … .]
“Isel?”
Someone in the front said.
The fairy’s face, which had been wearing a soft smile, hardened instantly.
bang!
The fairy seemed to be flapping its wings, and moved in front of the man with a huge explosion.
Evidence of supersonic speed. It was a sonic boom.
[What did you just say?]
“Oh, no…”
[Have you compared this body to that kind of house elf?]
The fairy held out the employee ID that was hanging around her neck in front of the man as if threatening.

[Can’t you see this? This is a golden employee ID card given to me by the CEO himself! Don’t even compare it to the temporary slaves living in your house! If you don’t want the pot to break! okay? yes? Do you understand!]
The man blankly nodded.
The fairy snorted and stepped up to the podium.
[Oh Hong Hong! Heroes, this event resulted in a meaningful collaboration~reaction~ with a famous company. very honored. I hope you all enjoy it too. The masters will be watching too. An opportunity to prove your courage and ability. Fighting!]
The fairy shouted in a charming voice and began spinning in the air.
[Twinkle! Fairy Power!]
Flash!
A flash of blue flashed across the playground, and a hologram message appeared in front of my eyes.
[Raid Festa!]
[‘PlayerKnown’s BattleRoyale’]
[※caution!]
[It is not fake.]
[Collaboration~ Ration~.]
[Explain the rules of the competition.]
[A special hyperdimensional field is configured for the event.]
[One. Participants return all equipment and start bare-bones, acquire items and equipment hidden throughout the field, and fight until the last man standing.]
[2. The field gets narrower at certain intervals, and supplies including magic items drop.]
[3. Participants can form temporary parties for a common goal.]
[※Caution!]
[It is not fake.]
[Believe me.]
Below the message was a brief map of the field to be used for this tournament.
I quickly skimmed through the rules and maps.
[This is what popped up in front of everyone! The result of my excellent ability as a full-time employee! Play Unknown’s Warlord Royal!]
“…”
[Oh! I don’t know if there are people who say strange things, but the collaboration that was officially given permission to other game companies~ Reaction~ Lee Yong. Oh Hong Hong Hong!]
‘this… … Won’t it be copyrighted?’
Well, it doesn’t matter.
They say they’re fine
I don’t care what kind of lawsuit I get into.
The fairy, who laughed heartily for a long time, clapped her hands as if she remembered, and took out a jewel box from her bosom.
[Attention! This is a special prize for the winner of this event.]
The fairy opened the box.
On a soft cushion lay a stone that glittered in an iridescent light.
[What a top-notch Advent stone! Fools like you… … No, it’s an item that heroes can’t get even if they work hard for a long time.]
clap.
The box is closed.
I narrowed my eyes.
‘You came right.’
In fact, it’s nice to have a ticket, but it’s fine even if you don’t have one.
I came to this Festa to get that Advent Stone. I was wondering what to do if it didn’t come out as a prize, but it seems to have been the correct answer.
“Hwiyu, I’m glad.”
A light whistle was heard.
When I look around, a familiar woman is standing somewhere.
After thinking about it for a while, I was able to recall it.
She was a 4-star woman who made a fuss yesterday.
Other party members were also gathered next to him. It seemed that he had stepped out of both the team and individual events.
“As long as you get that Advent Stone, those bastards can break your nose. It’s Niflheim and whatever, it’s a waste anyway. Let’s see at the next event. I’ll make you lick my feet.”
The blonde haired female knight snorted.
‘… … .’
We’ll meet these guys soon.
I turned my head.
[As I said before, dying here doesn’t mean you’re out. The fact that it is revived with the great technology of our Mobius! Kill and die for the sake of those watching!]
“…”
[Then everyone, let’s start the preliminary round from now on. Everyone, please enjoy!]
The fairy smiled and went down from the podium.
Then he swung a leather whip at the employees who were lined up behind him.
[What are you doing, you non-regular slaves! Aren’t you working?!]
match!
Employees who had been baptized with whips scattered in a hurry.
Preparations for the event began immediately. The heroes were divided into several groups under the guidance of the staff. As there are only thousands of people gathered, it is to form a group. Dimensional gates appeared in various places in the circular playground.

[Pick Me Up! – Eh? Niflheim is a 4-star dimensional city?]

A broadcast banner floated to the right of the field of vision.
It was Amkena’s screen. Raid Festa was an event that gave BJs a lot of broadcasting distance. Most users pay attention to rankers who engage in raids, but the situation is a little different this time. Because none other than Niflheim is here.
‘It’s not here.’
In the broadcast, the site of the individual exhibition was being relayed.
I glanced over and dragged the broadcast out of sight.
You can’t tell the exact situation from the game screen.
It seems that the preliminaries are conducted with a small number of people.
I counted the people who were in the same group as me.
about twenty people. It is said that the higher the round, the more participants there are.
Calculating from the preliminaries, it was like boasting a competition rate of thousands to one.
First of all, there are too many variables.
You could get hit or miss, or get caught up in an unexpected accident and die.
Guys who are confident in their skills will go to individual or team events. Looking at the exit, the heroes exiting the playground stood out in their own way. It is not too late to apply for other events yet.
Of course, I don’t go.
Because I’m here for the overall win.
“Heroes from Group 18 of the preliminaries! Please return your equipment!”
In front of the portal in the corner of the playground.
The temple opened the door to the display case mounted on the wall.
“Do not take the items you own! If caught, they will be eliminated immediately. We will make sure to store them, so please take off your armor and equipment and put them in.”
The heroes took off their armor and gear and started putting them in the locker room one by one.
“As soon as you enter the portal, the preliminary round begins. As I said before, you will be resurrected even if you die, so don’t be burdened. Just do your best.”
“…”
I unwrapped the leather armor, bifrost, and dagger and put them in the display case.
I couldn’t take Bifrost anyway, even if I tricked myself. Because there are various security magic attached to it. You just have to go through the qualifiers and get it back.
“Come on, go in!”
Weiying.
A portal the size of me was spinning.
Other participants have already entered. I was last.
I said to the female employee standing behind me.
“If I finish this qualifier quickly, can I leave?”
“It’s okay for those who have finished their schedule to leave. This event is a long-term game, so…”
I entered the portal.
The light wrapped around her body with a unique sense of floating.
[floor ?.]
[This is a special field for events.]
[Goal – Survive until you become one!]
I opened my eyes.
I looked around. The place I was summoned seems to be on one side of a high-rise building. Broken concrete and bony steel frames were revealing their bare faces.
‘This field is also modern.’
It seems that the motif was a ruined city.
The time is late morning. A crescent moon shone through the shattered glass of the window.
‘There are 20 survivors.’
The odds are 1 in 20.
The mini-map of this field was drawn on the left side of the field of view.
The outer red color would be a no-entry zone. I was told that it gets tighter as time goes by.
‘First of all, weapons.’
I’m bored with my bare hands.
It is said that useful items are scattered all over the place.
After rummaging around for about 10 minutes, I found a rusty iron pipe. Its performance is poor, but it will serve as a substitute for a sword.
I came down the stairs holding an iron pipe.
“Look!”
3rd floor of a ruined building.
someone talked to me
Looking in the direction from which the sound came, a young man with a crossbow was approaching me.
“Nice to meet you! You must be aiming for the championship too, right?”
I nodded.
“It’s still early days. I don’t think we need to fight right away. How about joining forces? Isn’t it a good tactic to increase the odds of survival? Looking at you, you’re like a warrior. I’m from a rogue. ….”
‘Are you trying to make a party?’
indeed.
It’s not bad.
“Huhu, it seems that the mind is connected. I am Rahan…”
puck!
I hit the young man on the head with an iron pipe.
“100 million!”
puck! puck! puck!
Blood splattered several times from his head every time he hit the iron pipe.
[1Kill!]
Island island island.
I took the crossbow, bolts, and emergency medicine from the young man’s arms and went down the stairs.
