Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 339: Level 2700 (1)

At first, the roots were really small and thin.

Did the roots keep growing then? Well, I was not sure if I could really call it ‘growth’, but in any case, the roots kept growing and growing. In the end, each root grew almost as tall as a tree.

Tuk. Tuk.

So I said to the enemies, tapping the roots.

“They’re too big, right?”

Given that they were astonished by the roots, I thought it would be helpful for me to get their cooperation if I intimidated them even more using the roots.

At that moment, the leader, the tank, opened his mouth.

“Oh my… 0.01% chance of you beating me? How stupid you were! Your chance of beating me is definitely 0%! How can you predict the odds of beating me with a whopping 0.01%?”

I immediately responded, waving my hands, “Hey, don’t blame yourself too much. It’s good that you have realized it even now.”

Then the leader opened his mouth again.

“Die!”

“Uh?”

Obviously, the leader spat out that word because he was resigned to the hopeless situation he was in. So I had no choice but to tilt my head, wondering why he said that.

If he could kill someone with his words, he wouldn’t be humiliated like this.

At that moment, there was the noise of an explosion nearby.

Bang!

“Kheeeeeeeeeek!”

The source of the noise was the guy who was currently bound by the roots after attempting to run away from me.

Then the leader spat out the same word again.

“Die!”

At the same time another explosion was heard.

Bang!

“Kheeeeek!”

This time, the body of the guy who was lying next to the leader exploded.

Startled, I immediately moved next to the leader using Blink.

Then I lashed out with my right foot and kicked his mouth so he could not speak. action

But he was still smiling even when his mouth was smashed.

For some reason, I had a strong premonition that I would not be able to stop him by just breaking his mouth, and it turned out true.

Bang!

After all, he was killed like that.

“…”

I could not help but feel a bit empty at that, so I just stared at the place where he disappeared without a trace.

A little later, I clenched my fists tightly.

Then I gently opened my mouth.

“Yeah, come again! Let me greet you as an aggressor.”

I made up my mind like that because being a thief was much better than being stolen from.

***

At Mitsuya Guild’s stronghold In Tokyo, Japan.

“You really did a great job.”

“Thanks so much for your hard work!”

In the past we cursed and confronted each other, but after I agreed to get rid of the enemies holed up in Osaka, most of the Mitsuya Guild leaders, including Chairman Ryu Sechi, treated me politely. But this time, they were clearly more polite than before.

Of course, I knew why they changed their attitude like that.

Obviously, the Mitsuya Guild had a hard time fighting the monsters for several days.

But it took me less than 10 minutes to get rid of them.

And if I excluded the time I spent talking with them, it actually took me less than 5 minutes.

Anyway, I opened my mouth with a smile on my face, returning their extreme hospitality.

“You’re welcome. I wish I had helped you a little bit earlier. By the way, here you are.”

As soon as I said that, I pulled out a Memory Bead from my pocket and gave it to the chairman. Of course, if the dead guys had divulged some secrets I never expected, I would not have handed it over to him. In fact, I thought of keeping it to myself if I obtained any important information, even at the cost of souring my current warm relationship with the Mitsuya Guild.

However, the dead guys gave no valuable information.

So, I used two Memory Beads to get a recording for the Myongjin Guild as well, and gave the other one to the chairman readily.

Chairman Ryu Sechi received the bead and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. Obviously, we have agreed to exchange information, so I should give it to you.”

However, the Memory Bead this time, which was useless, reminded me of the agreement I made with them in the past because aside from other things, sharing the 1300 level hunting ground under their control was very important to me.

Moreover, I could claim credit for it in my future dealings with the Mirae Guild or Mongolia’s Tugal Guild.

“You bet. Once we have made an agreement, we have to keep it, no matter what.”

Anyway, Chairman Ryu Sechi responded to me with a pleasant smile, and we carried on a friendly conversation for some time.

When I said I would go back to the Myongjin Guild right away, the chairman insisted he wanted to treat me to dinner, saying that he could not let a benefactor like me live without any treats, so I had no choice but to stay the night in Japan.

The dinner party hosted by the chairman also included the chairman’s confidants.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Nico.”

“My name is Mitsuko.”

“Hello, I’m Sana.”

They were the chairman’s granddaughters, and they were all beautiful.

They greeted me gladly.

And I knew why they came out here with the chairman.

So I didn’t react to their welcome emotionally.

I just ate dinner with a smile plastered on my face.

Then the next day I moved to the Myongjin Shelter using Blink without any hesitation.

In the small conference room of the Myongjin Shelter.

Even though they could confirm everything in the Memory Bead that vividly recorded my fight from start to finish, they valued my opinion as very important because I was the one who defeated the enemies in Osaka. That’s why not only my father, brother and sister, but also Director Sok and others were gathered in the conference room.

They checked the Memory Bead silently, and when the video was over, I opened my mouth first.

“I could clearly talk to them, but even though I faced them directly, I was not sure if they deliberately refused to talk to me or if they unable to talk at all.”‘

Their deliberate refusal to talk to me was definitely different from being unable to talk to me.

If they were actually filled with vengeance, then it was plausible that they refused to talk to me. But in the case they were unable to talk to me, it suggested that they were restricted or controlled by somebody.

Anyway, I continued to tell them about what I felt while I was confronting the NPCs.

Then my sister singled out one scene from the video and opened her mouth.

“When the tall guy mentioned ‘their aura,’ it suggests that his group is not in the upper class of their society. Considering the implications of that word, it looks like the enemies this time are very strong, right?”

“…”

“…”

“…”

But I could say confidently that they were weak, and very weak at that.

But they were weak compared to me. They were still very strong compared to others.

That’s why the Mitsuya Guild and Japan were defeated.

Even when others didn’t react to my sister’s assessment, she continued, as if she didn’t care.

“Well, if we assume that they are somewhere between weak and strong, I would say we are very weak, right? If a large number of them attacked, not a small number like this time,, I’m afraid we will have to escape until Juyoung appears. Besides, if that person that they mentioned appeared, we might not be able to find the time to escape at all.”

Their silence lasted for a long time after she said that.

As she said, the level of these supposed NPCs I encountered this time was well above the average of those living on the Earth.
