75 – Cheonhwa (1)

Day 2 of the T.P. Bae Streamer League.

Before the game began in earnest, the broadcasters took the time to briefly explain the highlights of yesterday’s game and players to keep an eye on.

This is because after clips and GIFs of yesterday’s game spread through various communities, the number of people watching this streamer league increased rapidly.

Of course, the biggest contributor to the sky-high viewer ratings of this streamer league was definitely Eugene.

This could not be said to be Eugene’s personal opinion or a minority opinion held by some malicious viewers, but rather a fact acknowledged by everyone.

Otherwise, there was no way the broadcasters from before until now would only talk about Eugene, leaving all other streamers alone.

“First of all, I think that if we want to win this league, the most urgent task is to come up with a countermeasure against Soma.”

When Saime said that in a very serious tone, Rion asked back.

“Yes? What do you mean by that?”

“That’s literally it. Looking at it very objectively, Soma-sama was a strong candidate to win this tournament and was a dark horse, so it meant that we had to find a way to deal with Soma-sama no matter what.”

– If you look closely at Saime Jumma, it looks like a small spring haha

– ㄹㅇ If you listen to what he says, he is a fanatic himself haha

-It is said that his obsession with her with her with Soma became stronger after he sent her a love call and got rejected ~

Viewers blatantly laughed at Saime’s remarks, but he continued speaking in a steadfast tone.

“I’m sure you all remember Soma’s first match, the annihilation match against Kim Geum-jjok. In that match, Kim Geum-jjok was brutally cut down by Soma.”

“Ah… It was definitely a disaster yesterday.”

“The only reason why Mr. Kim Geum was defeated by Soma yesterday without even being able to raise a hand or foot was because there was no means to keep Soma in check. He brought [Shimochi’s Curse] As a counter, but it had no effect on Soma.”

– Catastrophe ㅇㅈㄹ haha

– Master tier (get beat up like a dog by a newbie who just finished the placement test)

– Yesterday, after Kim Geum’s game ended, he didn’t turn on the broadcast. He said he was too scared of what people would say to him.

“In my opinion, Soma is at a level where there is no rival in terms of physical strength among the streamers participating in this tournament. In other words, if he goes head-to-head in a one-on-one match, he is bound to lose.”

“I want to say that it’s really absurd, but… “It’s a little sad that I can’t refute that statement.”

Rion muttered in a tone of absurdity at Saime’s words.

“Did I mention Soma’s unique skill, [Master of the Sword]? There really isn’t a clear downside to this unique skill. This may be the reason why Soma has openly used this unique skill in front of everyone.”

“Originally, the characteristic of the unique skills of the reinforcement series is that they do not have any notable advantages, but they also have no clear disadvantages. This is especially true since it has been revealed that the unique skill called [Master of the Sword] Is simply the ability to summon a sword to a specific location.”

“If the group wants to beat Soma and win this tournament, they will have to find a way to block Soma’s unique skills. Otherwise, I’ll have to find a way to tie Soma down for a while. In my opinion, that is the minimum condition to defeat Soma.”

As she said that, Saime put a wry smile on her lips.

“Of course, this is assuming that such modifications really work for Soma-sama.”

****

As Saime said, almost all teams that faced Eugene brought with them at least one means of keeping him in check.

However, in the end, it was all useless.

This was because the team that met in the quarterfinals, ‘Hogwarts Korean Branch’, and the team that met in the semifinals, ‘Preaching the Word from the Administration Class’, both suffered cruel defeats to Eugene.

None of the strategies or tactics had any effect.

In the first place, the difference in basic skills was so great that Eugene was able to destroy everything from the front just by swinging his sword.

– No technique is of any use in the face of overwhelming power.

-They keep rolling their heads for no reason and their heads explode in front of Soma’s seat. LOL

– At this point, I think the genre of this game has changed from 3v3 to boss raid. Am I mistaken?

– Has the ability to change the genre of all games he plays into raids haha

That’s how Eugene’s team, Group C, was able to defeat all the teams that stood in their way and advance to the finals.

“Okay then, the long-awaited finals of the T.P.P. Streamer League! A showdown between ‘Group C’ and ‘Strong and Strong Morning’! “Let’s start now!”

As soon as Saime shouts, the field transforms into the playground of a quiet school.

[The designated map is ‘Midnight High School’, and the game format is ‘Siege War’.]

[Goal: Destroy the opposing team’s base.]

“Siege?”

Poppy, the leader of the team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’, lights up her eyes as she sees the system log indicating that the game format has been designated as a siege.

Unlike team battles or annihilation battles, where the outcome is determined only by head-to-head confrontation between each other without any special variables, in siege warfare, it was possible to make up for the skill gap between users through strategy or tactics.< Br﹥

“We’ve already started a siege, so why not go with Plan B this time?”

“Surely… I think it would be more effective to go with plan B rather than plan A.”

As the rest of the team nods their heads in agreement to leader Poppy’s words, viewers laugh as they see it.

-Plan A? Plan B? What movie are they filming? Haha

– Are you really going to plan A to maintain security? Haha

– Fact) No matter what strategy you come up with, it will all be reduced to a modification in front of Somajwa

However, whether the viewers laughed or not, Poppy and other members of the ‘Strong and Strong Morning’ team maintained a serious look.

That doesn’t mean they don’t have eyes.

Through yesterday’s game, they clearly realized what a terrible monster Eugene was.

If you want to ‘win’ with Eugene, you must have at least the level of skill of a 1st division professional gamer, otherwise you will definitely lose.

That was the conclusion they reached after holding an all-night meeting yesterday.

So then what should I do?

What on earth can we do to win the championship by beating Eugene, who is no different from destroying the ecosystem of the streamer world?

In the end, there was only one conclusion that the team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’ came to.

“Let’s go!”

“If we do what we practiced yesterday, we can win!”

With such enthusiasm, they start running towards the center as soon as the game starts.

Sure enough, when team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’ arrived at the center, Eugene was already waiting for them with his arms folded.

It doesn’t matter what ingenious plan they have prepared against you.

The confidence itself to destroy it from the front!

Looking at Eugene’s appearance, Poppy was secretly impressed.

He knows it too. The fact that Eugene is fully qualified to act that way.

But at the same time, Eugene is still a beginner at Thousands.

In this game, there are many ways to neutralize your opponent other than fighting!

[Unique Skill – Subspace Prison]

[Isolate one enemy and one ally in subspace with a radius of 10 meters.]

Paat-!

“… !”

The next moment, Eugene realized that he was standing in a space he had never seen before.

However, it was faster for the opposing team members trapped with him to activate their skills than for Eugene to understand the current situation.

[Unique Skill – Inviolable Sanctuary]

[A sanctuary will be installed within a 10 meter radius. It is impossible for any being within the sanctuary to take hostile actions.]

[Attack power stat temporarily switches to 0.]

[It becomes impossible to use all skills temporarily.]

[Temporarily, the amount of damage received from each other becomes 0.]

“… Oh my.”

Looking at the message window that appeared in front of her, Eugene realized that they had beaten them to the punch.

Yes. This is the strategy established by the team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’!

It is impossible to deal with Eugene head-on.

They did not forget the fact that Kim Geum fought with Eugene from the front and was ultimately defeated.

However, the condition for winning this match is not killing Eugene, but destroying the opponent’s base.

In other words, no matter what method they use, if they can get Eugene out of this battle, their victory is confirmed!

– Jol-Ryeol

– Wow haha I was so surprised, but I didn’t know they would fight so fiercely haha

– Since you can’t win from the front, it’s understandable that they came up with such a plan… This is a bit haha

Viewers who were hoping for a hot clash between Eugene and team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’ posted dissatisfied comments, but Poppy paid no heed to such public opinion.

“The world of competition is cold and cold. Hearing such words in a real swordsman match like this is nothing short of a high praise.”

-Anyway, your spout-opening skills are really great haha

– Okay… You guys won. At least try to beat Somajwa…

With Eugene trapped in subspace, the only people left on this battlefield are Ecclesia and Yuria.

Aside from Ecclesia, Yuria is just a puppet.

Since it is an entity whose combat power approaches almost 0, if she can actually subdue Ecclesia, she will be able to survive this siege.

“… I see. I have figured out roughly how things work.”

Meanwhile, Yuria, who was embarrassed by Eugene’s sudden disappearance, glared at the members of the team ‘Strong and Strong Morning’ in front of her.

As far as Yuria knew, her owner was not someone who would disappear in front of her without a word.

In that case, those people in front of her must have done some kind of trick.

When Yuria glares at her like that, Poppy just laughs, thinking that Yuria is just cute.

“What? Why don’t you try it with us? But I don’t think it will hurt at all if you get hit by those fern-like hands, right?”

Yuria sighs and looks at Poppy’s playful tone.

“… Let me ask you one thing. Is my master getting tired of this situation right now?”

“Um… No? As far as I know, once subspace is formed, there is absolutely no way to interfere with it until the skill is released. So Soma-sama is not looking here right now.”

“Is that so? I’m really glad about that one.”

Truly.

While saying that, Yuria walked towards her Poppy.

And-

“… Huh?”

Poppy couldn’t believe her own eyes.

Yuria, who had looked like a cute doll just a moment ago, had now completely transformed into an adult.

And in Yuria’s hand her her, the holy sword was held.

“Because I can change into something like this without being discovered.”

Piing-!

“… !”

The next moment, Poppy saw her right arm fly away with a sound as if her thread was being pulled.

Even Poppy, a streamer who reached the master tier, cut him down at an unrecognizable speed!

“So, please, keep this a secret from your master.”

Yuria smiled and added her words.

“It seems like he prefers me to be a little girl rather than an adult.”

It was indeed a statement that could cause misunderstanding in many people.
