Closed Beta I Played Alone

188. Another clue.

Emperor of China in the 21st century.

It was also a reference to President Xi right in front of me.

So, if the world hadn't changed like this, no, even if the world changed like this, without 'Revival Legend', even if I was a direct descendant of a chaebol representing Korea, I wouldn't have been able to face him, let alone stand alone.

As mentioned at the beginning, he was the emperor of the 21st century version of China.

However, since it is an assumption and the current situation is a reality, he did not hesitate at all and opened his mouth facing him confidently.

"Congratulations. He just didn't finish first, but didn't he put a whopping 9 in the round of 16? Meanwhile, President Xi is second.”

No matter how hard I try, it's a provocation close to a declaration of war that in the end the first place is mine.

Of course, even President Xi would not be unaware of it.

So he did not stop there and uttered one more word.

“By the way, there are 9 people in the round of 16… It seems really amazing that you have so many great talents in your arms.”

Clearly, the words uttered to evoke Xi's comments.

Of course, he didn't think it would work.

Especially since I know that President Xi has not always been on a smooth road to get to that position.

However, thinking that it would be more damage not to even try, I scratched his nerves with provocative words.

OK.

“Fufufu. Did you have a lot of tea? It was surprisingly difficult. not omnipotent. What’s more, there were some things that didn’t work no matter how much you manipulated them.”

It seems that President Xi had no intention of keeping it a secret in the first place.

He would be arrogant to be sure that we were the only ones who found it.

As many as 9 out of 16 people were from the Chinese side, and even though even 9 of them were comparable, it is absolutely not to be dismissed that they were all under President Xi, not the Yanghwa Guild or Incarnation Guild, which ostensibly stand shoulder to shoulder with the Chinese government. because it was

A situation in which steam is inevitable for a moment.

However, he continued the conversation with President Xi without saying anything.

Then the president hardened his face and spoke in a lower voice than before.

“How do you see this end, Ashirante?”

“……”

President Xi suddenly uttered outrageous remarks.

I was speechless for a moment.

Even if I knew there was no need to tell me.

For example, about NPCs that I learned a while ago through US Holdledge.

However, as if he had already anticipated my reaction, President Xi continued speaking with a nonchalant expression.

“You recently went to New York, USA. Then you must have heard of NPCs from those who smirk as if it were a big deal.”

“……”

He tried to manage his expression as much as possible.

Of course, I wasn't sure if the facial expressions were being managed properly.

However, President Xi still did not even look at me, and now he opened his mouth with a soft voice.

“Ashirante No, Hong Jooyoung knows what Bten, who had all the original technology for virtual reality, has left behind. Because Myeong-jin is not a local grocery store.”

I had no choice but to know

When I first heard his dad, I was quite shocked too.

as soon as.

[The 4th car is realized as a reality.]

And it has become a reality.

After that, President Xi's remarks continued.

“Then, if you think you know of course and move on, roughly everyone will think like this. [Ah! You are now becoming one with the world of ‘Revival Legend’!]”

“……”

Still keeping your mouth shut.But honestly, I thought so.

In fact, monsters appeared in reality, not to be exact, on Earth, and the realization rate is the ability and skill of ‘Revival Legend’, as well as using coins to implement items.

And now NPCs have also appeared.

“Whoops.”

Xi Jinping bursts into laughter.

I was a little annoyed by that look, no, I was impatient.

I don't know, because Xi's not.

And President Xi showed his superiority with no regrets, as if he was revenge for my provocations in the first place.

But that's why he stayed silent.

Rather, if I take an action that I am even a little curious about, it will be an action that makes President Xi happy.

Then, unlike before, President Xi looked at me and opened his mouth.

“ Hong Jooyoung is quite calm.”

"is that so?"

"Yes. It’s amazing for his age.”

Unlike before, this time he responded appropriately.

Whether this is true or false, we have to elicit more stories anyway.

However, President Xi made a different point as he did not want to get into the main topic easily.

“At this moment, I really envy Chairman Hong Sang-man. To have such a wonderful son… you will be reassured.”

I wanted to urge you to stop talking nonsense and get to the point quickly.

I wanted to grab even a chin there.

However, he ended the action with a slight smile on his lips.

And although my actions may not be the correct answer, President Xi clapped his hand to make sure it wasn't a bang.

"great! I guess I started the conversation, so I have to finish it, right? In that sense, I will give you one piece of information.”

All of his attention was focused on Xi's lips.

“In the United States, information about NPCs who are wrapped up in the illusion that they only know them… is wrong. Because they are not NPCs.”

“?”

Naturally, he naively did not believe in the saying that not only monsters but also NPCs appeared on Earth in Hold Ledge.

In other words, there was solid evidence that it was a video.

And the voice of a being called an NPC was also recorded there.

Moreover, the previous one.

Not only the video, but also the words the person who thought to be the NPC cried while dying in the US military remained in my memory.

as soon as.

[!@##$%%^&* %%#!*^!]

[How dare you invade our territory! Don't kill them all!]

[%#%!%!!^$^& @$*&^!#%!]

[Ugh! I die here, but we will never accept you guys!]

Apparently, the Earth and the world of ‘Revival Legend’ are merging.

In light of the situation, his words made him no choice but to infer his identity as an NPC.

And then President Xi opened his mouth again.

“To commemorate today's delightful meeting, I would like to add one final bonus. Not one.”

“?”

words I don't understand at all.

But Xi did not open his mouth any further, as he did not intend to make me understand.

Then.

“Then congratulations on winning first place. And please don't forget to provide information in good faith today. I withdraw from this duel.”

President Xi abstained after only saying his own words.

But there was nothing I could do other than look at the message that appeared in front of me in that situation.

[The opponent has abandoned the duel.

-Congratulations. I won 1st place in the event to select the strongest person in the 11th area.]

At that moment, President Xi disappeared in front of me and I was left alone.

In the meantime, of course, the message continued to ring.

[Lumen, congratulations to Ashirante on achieving 1st place in District 11.

- A reward is given for that.

: Acquire 3 billion Golden Rings.

: Acquire 20,000 coins.

: Acquires 400 remaining stat points.

: Acquires 2 skill points.]

20,000 coins.

Giving a whopping two skill points there had to be a huge reward to the extent that the others could not be noticed.

But the reward didn't come to me because my head was full of other thoughts.

"one? not one? what?"

First of all, it was not difficult to understand that NPCs are not NPCs right away.

But it didn't even make sense that it wasn't one.

And then.

[Proved to be the strongest in Area 11.

-Would you like to participate in the event to select the true strongest among the strongest in the total 40 districts?]

“I participate.”

First of all, I decided to stop worrying and compete there.

Because there's no reason not to.

[I have chosen to participate in the King of Kings.

- A message will sound when proceeding later.

-10 seconds later, it will return to its original position.]

“……”

The end of a pretty long event.

Of course it was easy.

To be honest, there was no situation in itself that could be called adversity or hardship.

No, if I were to pick out adversity and hardship, would it be that I met my sister in the round of 128?

However, the last meeting with President Xi caused a lot of trouble.

'okay. I don't know what one is right now, so put it off until later. But what if the NPC is not an NPC?’

I felt my body being dragged to somewhere while I was thinking about it, and the land of the 1500 level hunting ground Titan, which I was hunting just before, appeared.

However, he did not continue hunting as usual.

Obviously, I don't think President Xi's words are 100% true, but nonetheless, it's not something I'll pass on to myself.

That evening.

Myungjin Shelter small meeting room.

Now I can speak frankly.

I'm not stupid myself.

So, as soon as unexpected words came out of President Xi's mouth, he immediately activated the memory ball.

And as soon as the event was over, he got out of the Titan's site and handed it to Seok In-soo directly.

A few hours after that, I gathered in the small meeting room with my father and some other people like this.

First of all, they gathered and activated the marble of memory once again, and at the end of the video, Director Seok In-su stood up and opened his mouth.

"Hmm. Hmm. First of all, the memory marble brought by Jooyoung was checked over and over again when the strategy department played it several times. And it was decided that President Xi's words were not false information. Because at the end of the conversation, President Xi told us not to forget to provide information in good faith. The Department of Strategy is not sure if this was thoroughly intentional.

But if it were false, he concluded that he would not have said such a thing. No matter how much President Xi, there are only a couple of things that take him behind the name of Ashirante.”“……”

“……”

“……”

No one responded to the words of In-soo Seok.

Then his father opened his mouth.

“Then does that mean that the credibility of that statement is sufficient?”

"Yes. Of course, you don’t have to believe it 100%, but it’s not something you can ignore.”

“Then the NPC is not an NPC and not one…”

Daddy's low voice that blurs the end.

But no one, including me, said anything about it.

Because I really didn't know.

Anyway, the meeting that day ended with so many questions left.

In the midst of a meeting in full swing at the Myeongjin Shelter.

Beijing, China.

“Did you really need to disclose that valuable information to Ashirante?”

"Yes."

“Especially, behind Ashirante, there is a strong supporter named Myungjin who will support him.”

Upon hearing that President Xi had disclosed at least a small amount of information to Ashirante, his subordinates looked worried and said one word at a time.

But Xi opened his mouth as if he didn't care.

It's also an odd topic.

“What is the most valuable jewel in the world?”

“Aren’t you generally going to value diamonds as the most valuable gemstones?”

"okay? what. It could be. So what if I had all the diamonds in the world? Others know nothing of diamonds.”

“Yeah…”

“……”

“……”

At President Xi's words, this time most of his men were stunned.

If I had been so stupid that I didn't know that, I wouldn't have been able to be here.

"okay. It would be nothing but a useless burden. Because no one knows its worth. The same goes for information. There must be some clues in the market. Only then will those who move to get that information come out. Meanwhile, the value of information goes up.”

With those words, President Xi rose from his seat and moved.

Then he opened his mouth again.

“Isn't Ashrante enough as a starting point for that information? Moreover, if Ashirante gets lost or slows down while wandering in the information, that alone is sufficient.”

"Yes."

"all right."

His subordinates did not refute Xi's words at all.

next day.

Kotum Castle Central Square.

[Currently, there are skills that can be acquired.]

[There are currently upgradeable ice-based skills.]

Yesterday's events were quite shocking.

But he brushed it off.

It was clear that there was something that he would not know even if he devised it right away, and that meant that paying attention to it would be detrimental.

What's more, there were people who could specialize in such ingenuity.

So, without being bound by it any longer, I decided to step here.

Because there must be a skill to acquire using the two newly acquired skill points.
