Closed Beta I Played Alone

Chapter 61

Episode 61. The opportunity came sooner than expected (1).

Abandoned wooden field infested with long-rooted tree monsters.

“Ice Field. and superimposed thin ice.”

Passionate!

I hunted as usual.

Of course, he did reveal it to his family.

But I decided that it wasn’t a reason to change my lifestyle.

So I was still immersed in hunting.

This abandoned wooden field is still an attractive hunting ground for me who is not even level 250.

Experience is also experienced, but for the only reason that no one is looking for it because it is difficult to hunt even users of the 400-500 level, which is an appropriate hunting level.

But now it was.

It’s the older sister who uses the ID of Transcendent Beauty.

“Wow. Wow. Wow.”

constantly pouring out admiration.

Of course, the admiration did not end there.

“Where is the hunting method that eats raw food like this! this is a foul Foul!”

A modest party between the family in the basement study.

It was less than 11 pm when the party was over, so I logged on to the game.

Even my older sister who drank quite a lot.

Anyway, I hunted until a little past 1 in the morning with my older sister, who followed me around like that.

And immediately logged out.

Not tomorrow, I’ll be busy today.

next day.

Obviously, a big thing happened yesterday, both from the family’s point of view and from Myeong-jin’s point of view, but the atmosphere was not bad.

No, it was rather good when I saw it.

Especially since my father said that it was the best choice for me to get rid of the person named Kim Seong-han, so I would no longer have any regrets or regrets.

Anyway, after having breakfast like that, we gathered in the basement study once more.

Because it is not a matter of simply passing over my abilities with ‘Wow!’.

And yesterday I had the first thing I said.

as soon as.

[If you give accessories that have not been strengthened up to Normal, Rare, or Rare grades, you can immediately upgrade to the minimum safety enhancement of 3 Enhancements. Legendary rank is probably only possible up to 1 and 2 enhancements straight away.]

Growing together with Ice Man also aroused great interest in the family, but the only thing that drew the greatest interest was the character of the god of reinforcement received in exchange for achieving the maximum level during the 3rd closed beta.

So it was briefly explained.

with the words above.

That is, only the Golden Ring was needed to upgrade the accessories of the Scorpion, which is a rare grade of 400 level, up to exactly 3.

So, maybe level 400 or a lower level of normal or rare-grade accessories can be strengthened by 4 or 5 only with Golden Ring.

But first, he mentioned only 3 reinforcements, which are safety reinforcements.

That’s just because it’s huge.

Because unlike weapons and armor, it was difficult to even go up to level 3, which is the 100% safety enhancement level for some accessories.

Unlike weapon or armor enhancement stones, accessory enhancement stones only come from boss monsters.

In particular, it required 3 weapon enhancement stones to upgrade from 0 to 1 even for a normal grade sturdy long sword obtained at the beginning.

Of course, to upgrade from 1 to 2 requires more reinforcement stones.

In other words, because of the accessory reinforcement stone, it was rather difficult to strengthen the normal and rare grade accessories up to 3, which is the safety enhancement.

Because there were not enough accessory enhancement stones to use for rare or legendary grades.

But I was able.

As long as you have a Golden Ring, you can make up to 3 reinforced accessories of general or rare grades as if they were printed in a factory.

Moreover, it does not require a long time separately.

So, I decided that if I only upgraded to at least 3 accessories, it would be a huge boost to Myungjin.

It is possible to raise the sense of belonging and loyalty to Myungjin by providing enhanced accessories as a reward to those who have performed outstandingly as a member of Myungjin.

And I understood my intentions, and as soon as I said those words yesterday, my dad and hyung were especially happy and welcomed me.Anyway, in the underground study, we all connected to the game together like yesterday.

Except for her mother, with her father, brother and sister.

Abandoned wooden field.

In exchange with my father, I was handed a total of 510 accessories that were not reinforced correctly.

Most of them were common and rare, and occasionally a mixture of rare and legendary.

Of course, that wasn’t all.

Exactly 300 million Golden Rings were also handed over.

Of course, he refused at first.

Because there are too many

Because the total Golden Rings required to upgrade the Scorpion King’s accessories from 0 to 3 were less than 300,000 Golden Rings.

Even more so, considering that most of them are 510 common and rare grades, it was fully expected that a total of 100 million Gold Rings would not be required to go all 3 enhancements.

Of course, considering other rare and legendary ratings, it may take more, but it was definitely not going to exceed 150 million Golden Rings.

But at my refusal, my father said firmly.

“Even if you have the Golden Ring, you can’t find it, however, as an accessory reinforcement stone. And to make more than 500 accessories for 300 million gold rings up to 3 reinforced safety? It is even more beneficial for our Myeongjin. Moreover, Jooyoung has no intention of imposing any loss on you. Jooyoung makes you stronger

This is beneficial to all of us.”

And it didn’t end there.

It is a legendary-grade accessory that only 3 of the 510 accessories existed.

My brother pointed at it and said.

“Perhaps it’s better than the Scorpion King ring and earring set I’m currently wearing. That is for Jooyoung to use.”

“……”

I had no intention of doing anything for the benefit of my family.

I honestly don’t even need to take it.

So far, I have never felt that I was lacking in anything.

Moreover, despite the fact that he wrote that he was not sparing himself, he had accumulated close to 200 million Golden Rings in his pocket.

because of the quest.

“Yes. I will write well.”

I did not refuse any further.

Did you know that it is the sincerity of your father and brother?

I can give it back in a bigger way later.

Anyway, I took 510 accessories and 300 million Golden Rings and moved to the teleport zone in this abandoned wooden field.

“move. Ferrero Castle.”

[Go to Ferrero Castle.]

The cooldown of the god of reinforcement of 14 days, which was used for the +1 Ice Emperor’s guardian sword, has already ended at 3 o’clock this morning.

So I moved right away.

’cause it’s not something to drag on.

Soon after, Ferrero Castle appeared, which was much larger than Kotum and the pioneers’ cities of Ani and Assirante.

It’s definitely the first place I’ve been to.

However, it was not difficult to find the blacksmith because all the huge towers and shops for skill acquisition were all gathered in the central square.

And as I approached the smithy, the message that had always been ringing rang.

[Please select the item you wish to enhance.]

In that message, he took out one of the accessories he received from his father, put it in the reinforcement window, and opened his mouth softly.

‘Activation of the God of Reinforcement.’

[Activate the God of Reinforcement.

-100% chance to succeed in strengthening.

-Enhancement target: +0 Bracelet made from salamander’s scales

-Additional condition required for reinforcement attempt: 30,000 golden ring.

– Cooldown created upon successful enhancement: None.]

Rare grade accessories.

If it was 30,000 golden rings, it wasn’t bad.

The Scorpion King’s Noble level is upgraded from 0 to 1, because it costs about 50,000 Golden Rings.

And so, starting with a bracelet made of salamander’s scales, I went into strengthening.

Except for 3 Legendary grade accessories.

1 hour later.

I didn’t know it before, but I realized that it was difficult in its own way to continue to activate the god of reinforcement one by one.

However, he succeeded in making a total of 507 accessories up to at least 3 reinforcements in one hour.

And some common and rare-grade accessories went beyond 3 enhancements and made up to 4 reinforcements and 5 reinforcements.

All the accessories were strengthened until just before the cooldown was created.

Because that’s what I can do for my dad or hyung.

Nevertheless, a total of 200 million Golden Rings were not consumed.

In other words, it is a huge benefit to me when I consider the Golden Ring worth over 100 million in an hour and 3 Legendary-grade accessories.

Anyway, I quickly exited the forge and moved to the abandoned wooden field.

And he handed over all the items that he tried to strengthen to his father, who was still standing.

The three-strength Scorpion King’s ring and earrings that I had worn before.

’cause I don’t need it now

“Wow. this is real Isn’t that a complete scam? And if you get paid enough for this and say that you can strengthen it, you will soon become a chaebol.”

All of the more than 500 accessories were reinforced by 3, and the other 200 accessories were reinforced 4 or 5.

Of course, there were times when I imagined what my sister had said.

But he quickly shook his head.

Because I had no intention of making a strong person for nothing.

Enemies that have been strengthened by the items that I have strengthened that much appear?

Of course, I’d still be stronger, but I still didn’t like it.

Moreover, I have never felt the lack of golden rings myself.

And after that, I talked about this and that with my dad, my brother, and my sister.

In general, about 2 stations per person.

I didn’t get any direct help or support from Myungjin, but I honestly didn’t want it.

Rather, as always, it was better to hunt alone in a hunting ground where there were no people like this.

You don’t even need a supporter.

And the conversation continued all the way to the basement study after logging out together.

Just about me coming straight into the house.

But this I refused.

As soon as I enter the house and the name Ashirante is known, there may be some who have doubts.

As much as I live outside the house, Kim Seong-han’s group recognized me as a son who was brought out of the house.

In other words, considering the views of others, it was judged that it was more advantageous.

And it wasn’t long before it was decided to follow my opinion.

Anyway, that day, I ate at home until lunch and moved to the studio with the help of the driver.

While Hong Jooyoung left.

Hong Ki-young looked at her father, Hong Sang-man, and opened her mouth.

“Anyway, shouldn’t Jooyoung be protected?”

Hong Ki-young’s worrying question.

To that question, Chairman Hong Sang-man opened his mouth as if nothing special.

“do not worry. You have already taken action.”

Chairman Hong Sang-man did not just kick out Hong Jooyoung in the past.

The studio where Hong Jooyoung lives.

The owner, who was always resident in the studio, was a bodyguard belonging to the secretariat of Myeong-jin.

And Chairman Hong Sang-man gave a different order this time.

To secretly change the owners of Hong Jooyoung’s adjacent rooms and the upper and lower rooms.

“Anyway, Grandpa was right.”

“……”

Chairman Hong Sang-man was speechless for a moment at Hong Ki-young’s words.

Because it was Jooyoung that the previous president thought more terribly than his son, Ki-young, and his only granddaughter, Soo-young, while he was alive.

He said he would become a great figure without end.

“okay. I see.”Chairman Hong Sang-man also nodded and acknowledged Hong Ki-young’s words.

Because it is absurd to see it and not admit it.

4 days later.

“The pouring hail. Ice Spear.”

In fact, I even told their leader to come if they would come.

First of all, I ignored the monster and turned my gaze to a place where I felt popular.

with everything fully prepared.

However, when he saw the group that appeared shortly thereafter, he knew at a glance that they were not.

Because their movements were not considering combat at all.

As if there was someone here.

And the crowd seemed to be a little surprised when they saw me.

“uh? Is there anyone hunting here?”

“So. Besides, if you’re alone… you’re pretty strong. right?”

“of course. What kind of place is this?”

“Are you aiming for boss monsters like us?”

“a. you’re one one person. How can one person catch a boss monster?”

“Then should I kick you out?”

“Originally, it should be. Hunting alone here means quite strong. Hmm.”

“What are you worried about? The boss will figure it out. Furthermore, it could be that you belong to a competing guild that came to check out the boss monsters here.”

“Ah-oh. Damn it. Why is the boss monster competition getting so intense?”

“It’s all about Mirae, Myeongjin, Daesung, Gusan, and Daeyu, as well as large corporations making a fuss.”

“Chip. What could they do to risk their lives in this game?”

“How would I know that?”

“Anyway, sir. I don’t know how our holy spear got pushed and pushed and came to this place, which is reputed to be a beggar boss monster.”

Sung Chang.

There were other words, but the word “sacred spear” was clearly heard in my ears.

They were the ones who made me feel greed for the first time, because it was a haven, a resting place, and a refuge.

By preventing the Holy Spear Guild from even watching, let alone attacking, boss monsters that appeared on the field that were not owned by anyone.

Of course, I fully understand it now.

Because Myungjin is doing the same.

No, all guilds are doing that.

So, I’ve long since forgotten about the petty grudges of that time.

I was too busy to go on my own to dwell on it.

However, this time seemed like a good opportunity.

Not to use as a starting point for spreading the name Ashirante.

Of course, that’s why the attack on the Holy Spear Guild that appeared in front of you?

Of course I have no intention of doing it.

It’s still valid that you forgot even the slightest grudges and didn’t intend to make any useless enemies.

Unless it’s an A-grade quest, for example, ‘Light a lamp of hope for the Salte clan.’

That said, I’m going to try it this time.

A test to see how much power the legendary-grade accessories we received from our father and brother.

Of course to the boss monster.

Of course, believing in me was greater than believing in that item.
