Closed Beta I Played Alone

210. After all, people should be good...

Inside Stage 4.

bum bum.

As before, he led a group of 10,000 ordinary people and proceeded slowly but nonstop towards the 4th gate.

As always, I'm with them all in the air at a glance.

That is, it looks the same as before.

But there was only one thing that was different from before.

There is a group of people following us from far away.

Of course they are the Borneche expedition team.

***

a day ago.

"Hey. Would you like to choose sooner? I have a long way to go.”

It wasn't just words, but because he had a long way to go, he frowned slightly and said intimidatingly.

OK.

“Ah… I see. But can I move along with Hong Jooyoung and the crowd from the back?”

“……”

Andrei's will to not give up on ordinary people so easily in the end, although he spoke back and forth.

That was clearly felt.

So he looked at Andrei as if glaring at him, and at that moment Andrei slapped his hand and opened his mouth again.

“I never doubted Hong Jooyoung's skills. The fact that they brought them all without a single damage proves that. However, in case of an unexpected situation…”

"great."

Of course, there were many other options.

For example, these people, even Andreiman, are showing how dangerously greedy they are right now.

And if it doesn't lead to that, to all of the Borneche expeditions.

But I endured.

He was obviously greedy and obsessive, but that alone wasn't enough to kill hundreds of people.

First of all, I made that decision and continued on to the 4th gateway.

***

today.

hooked. hooked.

[Greek!]

[Uh-huh!]

As before, it has been almost a week since we moved with a safe escort from our roots.

I was able to face the gate again.

Right through the 4th gate.

So I stopped the crowd of ordinary people and went to the 4th gate by myself, and soon a voice against me rang out.

[Goooooooo!]

roar.

And with that roar, the Minotaur wielding a huge ax revealed himself in a very threatening form.

It will probably be stronger than the Og of the 1st Gate or the Stone Golem of the 3rd Gate.

But somehow it seemed to be weaker than Rich in the second gateway.

Of course, it didn't matter if he was stronger than Rich.

Because I was strong enough to be compared to that Lich.

So, I rushed to Blink first.

After that, of course, I attempted an attack to create a battlefield that was advantageous to me.

“Ice Field. and superimposed thin ice.”

Pasha Sasak.

And then, as if I was not the 4th gatekeeper for nothing, the Minotaur slashed a huge ax at me with a quick reaction.

It's definitely faster than Owl or Stone Golem.

But I was faster.

therefore.

bang!

The minotaur's ax had no choice but to slash the empty space where I had disappeared.

Of course, he didn't have to avoid it.

With one hit of his axe, the ice field I opened was partially broken and cracked, but my own defense was not comparable to that of the ice field.

Moreover, the vitality of over 6 million is a bit difficult to say, but it boasted a vitality that surpassed that of a cockroach.

But unlike before, there were spectators now.

It's also a bit silly to think about.

So, if I ever struggled or had an equal battle against the Minotaur, it was extremely unlikely, but I didn't know if I could put that stupid idea into practice.

Greed sometimes leads to unexpected and non-ideal behavior.

Of course it didn't matter.

Moreover, although this is a secret that no one will be able to tell, honestly, I had a slight thought that they would lead them to that nonsense.

That way no one will question my actions of persecuting and oppressing them.

One step further, even death.As much as that, the Borneche expedition went further and Andrei did not like it very much.

But he brushed off the devilish thought.

He doesn't want to be the kind of person who kills the same person just because he doesn't like him for no other reason.

obviously not yet.

That said, I don't know what will happen later.

Anyway, not for me, but for the expedition to Borneche, I decided to fight the Minotaur, the gatekeeper of the 4th gateway, with all my might.

therefore.

“Retribution Ice!”

bang!

[Uh-huh!]

First of all, I put the most powerful attack into the guy.

After that.

“Ice Tornado. blizzard!"

hee hee hee.

puck. puck. bubbly bubbly. puck.

A remake of what was always used.

But it was a linkage that never disappointed me.

Of course, the opponent is the gatekeeper of the 4th gate.

jerk. jerk.

I wasn't swept away by the gust of ice tornado, and it ran towards me at a faster speed than the ogre or the stone golem that was the gatekeeper before him.

However, it is clearly a fact that it is significantly slower than the first.

Moreover, this was an extremely advantageous battlefield for me, with an ice field with superimposed thin ice.

So, as you did before, if you move around avoiding him and use Ice Spears or multiple Ice Arrows, winning is a breeze.

However.

“Ice Prison!”

The Minotaur was imprisoned in an ice prison.

of course.

bang! bang!

The Minotaur swung his ax at the icy prison where he was imprisoned, and each time the ice lattices of the icy prison shattered little by little.

But it didn't matter.

Because in the first place, I didn't think I could completely lock him in the ice prison.

At least to a level 5 ice prison.

Instead, he succeeded in locking him up for a while.

In other words, all that was left was a ruthless attack.

“Ice Storm! Ice Wave!”

puck. puck. bubbly bubbly. puck.

Punishment Ice, Ice Tornado, and Blizzard had one, two, and three punches, and after that, a small jab was enough, so skills that I didn't use.

But, he poured it on him without hesitation.

And when the ice bars of the ice prison break apart.

“Ice blast.”

Aww!

I didn't want to let him destroy it, so I destroyed it myself.

And after that, he generously poured down hail, ice spears, and multiple ice arrows.

OK.

thud.

dump.

Needless to say, the ogre who was the gatekeeper of the first gate fell faster than the stone golem of the third gate.

Moreover, the minotaur could not put a single attack on me, and while facing me, he collapsed without moving a few steps from his initial position.

Gatekeeper Death is too vain to be seen as a gatekeeper at the 4th gate.

And then the message rang.

[You have killed the gatekeeper guarding the 4th gate.

- The second gate will be open for the next 5 hours.

-There is a cooldown of 5 days to move to stage 4 again after moving to stage 5 using the 4th gateway.]

After checking the message, he opened his mouth in a loud voice.

So that not only the common crowd, but also the Andrei and Bornesh expeditions behind them could hear it.

“Take a break for 3 hours here and move on to stage 5!”

***

A group of ordinary people at the back of Hong Jooyoung.

And the Borneche expedition team located further behind the group of ordinary people.

However, there were no people so far behind that Hong Jooyoung couldn't see the battle with the Minotaur, the gatekeeper of the 4th gate, even though it was overshadowed by the crowd, so everyone was able to see the scene.

therefore.

“……”

“……”

“……”

No one could open their mouth.

Moreover, as they moved to the 5th gateway, the Minotaurs they encountered directly.

He should never have fallen so easily and so quickly.

Even more so for just one person.

But the situation was unfolding right in front of me.

The silence had to be quite long.

Until the general public lay comfortably on the ground at Hong Jooyoung's cry that he would take a three-hour break no matter how many times he had already experienced it.

After a while.

The camp of the Borneche expedition.

“By the way, are they the roots?”

"Huh."

“Is it a skill?”

“Yeah… isn’t it?”

"Hey! Would that be a normal skill? Maybe it’s a limited skill or trait.”

"right. right. But isn't it really a scam? Seedling at night. The scene where hundreds of those roots sprout up and make a wall…”

Burr.

One who trembles slightly.

But the other person opened his mouth as if squeezing, saying, "What's surprising about that?"

“That wall is not enough. not everyone has seen A monster approaching a group of ordinary people at dawn.”

At his words, everyone remembered what had happened in the morning.

Shuong. puck.

Shuong. puck.

Roots that attack the approaching monster as if it were a living wall and become a wall again.

Seeing more than a perfect living fortress, all of the Borneche expeditions couldn't help but giggle.

Especially since each of its roots has generated more power than any other user.

That's why, in front of the 4th gateway, where the three-hour break takes place, all of the expeditions of Borneche continued to talk about how Hong Jooyoung caught the minotaur so easily, and the roots that contributed to hundreds of people.

And in the meantime, there was someone breathing a sigh of relief.

Exactly Andrey.

'Damn it! It was good to be still. If you were greedy...'

shaking.

Andrei trembled slightly without realizing it.

***

3 hours later.

“Everyone moves to stage 5!”

"Yes!"

"all right!"

After the 3 hour break, the minotaur died and moved to stage 5 through the 4th gate that was open.

And the same thing happened as before.

With the escort of the roots, it moves safely as if taking a walk.

However, there was one thing that was different from before.

as soon as.

“If there is anything you want us to do or need, please feel free to tell us.”

Andrei, who clearly showed excessive greed.

But he didn't treat me badly or be rude in front of me.

Obviously, being greedy and treating me badly are two completely different things.

Andrei, who was polite, became more polite.

No, not just Andrei, but the entire Borneche expedition.

Of course, he didn't know why.

There are many ways to subdue your opponent, but the most effective from the past is to show the difference in power.

Especially with a gap that cannot be crossed.

So, I did not laugh at the appearance of the Andreina Borneche expedition team that suddenly changed their behavior.

Other than that, I never intend to share it with the general public.

Anyway, I moved the 5th stage to a more relaxed atmosphere than before, and although it took a full month like before, I was able to reach the 5th gate, the last gate.

and.

dump.

thud.

On the way, Andrei confided about the gatekeeper of the 5th gateway.

Frankly, it was unnecessary information.

However, knowledge was definitely a strength, and it was possible to defeat him more easily.

Then a message rang immediately.

[Congratulations. Successfully explored the new continent.

-It is possible to leave the New World using the 5th gateway.

-When using the 5th gate, the following rewards are given differentially in order.

: When escaping for the first time.-1000 coins, 100 remaining stat points obtained.

: When escaping for the second time.

-999 coins, 99 remaining stat points acquired.

: When escaping for the third time.

-998 coins, 98 remaining stat points earned.

:

:]

laugh.

As soon as I read the message, I couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Even if the reward is tight, it's really worth it.

In particular, after the 100th escape, the remaining stat points that could be obtained were all the same.

However, there were not many coins.

And at that time, with an additional ringing message, I seemed to understand why they did not escape through the wide open 5th gate and came back.

[The 5th gateway gives additional rewards when traveling with the general public.

- The following rewards are given for each common person traveling together.

: Acquired 3 million golden rings.

: Acquired a small amount of experience.

: Acquire 5 coins.

: Acquire 1 remaining stat point.]

“Hey…”

Of course, it was by no means a huge amount when considering each one.

But a thousand people.

Compared to 10,000 people, that was obviously a lot.

In particular, in the meantime, a small amount of experience and remaining stat points attracted attention.

It was so self-evident that a small amount of experience, reaching 10,000, would become a large amount of experience, and it meant that the remaining stat points would eventually be 10,000.

However, considering the shared growth that I have, that 10,000 is a total of 25,000.

And then, even though this alone was huge, a message rang as if there was still more.

[There is a hidden reward in this quest.

-1 person traveling with 1,000 ordinary people.

: Additional 2000 remaining stat points are acquired.

-1 person traveling with 5,000 ordinary people.

: Additional 20,000 coins are acquired.

-1 person traveling with 10,000 ordinary people.

: Additional treasure chests are acquired.]

[This is the number of people who are still alive today.

-10563 / 10563]

“Heh heh.”

laughter that comes out of nowhere.

But the laughter that I spit out at first and the laughter that I spit out now had to be different.

The first laugh I spit out was obviously a laugh of disappointment due to the compensation that was too salty, and this laugh is really a laugh of joy.

So, he opened his mouth to Andrei and the Borneche expedition.

“You go first. I'll go last. with the general public.”

“……”

“……”

“……”

Great consideration for conceding a whopping 1st place.

And I was so moved by it that both Andrei and the expedition to Borneche could not say thank you to me and kept silent.

He burst out laughing at the sight and opened his mouth again.

"haha. I am very sorry, but there is no need to be so thrilled.”

Andrei and the expedition to Borneche may take it as a joke, but I really regretted giving up first place.

Anyway, 1,000 coins and 100 remaining stat points.

However, the moment I step into the 5th gate, I pretend to be really crazy and if they arrest the public, there is a possibility that I will be dragged to zero.

Of course, even if there is only a 0.00001% chance of that, he made generous concessions because there was a huge reward that could not be compared with that.

After that, it took a little while, but at my prompting, Andrei and the Borneche expedition team started to cross the 5th gate with bitter eyes, and when they all escaped to the end, I also stepped into the 5th gate.

With 10,563 ordinary people.

In the meantime, I also thought that people should live a good life.

But not long after.

'Nope. Living a good life is not the right answer.’

It was not that he only thought of good deeds and saved ordinary people.

obviously had doubts.

Why are ordinary people forced to come here?

Of course, in the meantime, having my brother-in-law's father and mother here also played a part.

Somehow, as I was thinking about it, a twinkling light enveloped the entire crowd, including myself, and I felt as if I was being transported somewhere.
