Closed Beta I Played Alone

Chapter 25

Episode 25. Yet time passes. (2)

23 hours after I challenged the beginner’s light stick from 8 reinforcement to 9 reinforcement.

stood in front of the smithy.

Then he heard a message he had already seen several times.

[We have level 100-limited enhancement quests.

-Currently achieved enhancement level: 9 enhancement.

-There is still a chance to safely upgrade to a higher value.]

Saying it hurts.

Or say the body is sweet.

Until then, I only knew the meaning of the words, but I didn’t know what kind of feelings the words came from.

But this time, I felt it.

what that means

So, originally, I should have put the 9-strength beginner light stick into the event red reinforcement spear, not the original reinforcement spear, but I didn’t.

Because before that, there was something I wanted to confirm.

How much is the required golden ring, including the cooldown time you get when you use the god of reinforcement on the ice emperor’s guardian sword, which is a mythical item.

So I put the ice emperor’s guardian sword into the original reinforcement spear, not the red reinforcement spear for the event, and opened my mouth quietly.

‘Activation of the God of Reinforcement.’

[Activate the God of Reinforcement.

-100% chance to succeed in strengthening.

-Enhancement target: +0 Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

– Additional necessary conditions for reinforcement attempt: 850,000 golden ring

-Cool time created upon successful enhancement: 14 days]

14 days for 850,000 golden rings.

I thought that the golden ring and cooldown needed to go from reinforcement 0 to reinforcement 1 were a little long.

But looking back, I realized that it didn’t seem that long.

Because the items that try to strengthen are not rare or legendary, but rather mythical.

The safety enhancement itself is 0.

Anyway, as soon as I finished checking the golden ring and cooldown required for 1st upgrade with my own eyes, I removed the Ice Emperor’s guardian sword from the reinforcement window and put a light club for 9 reinforcement beginners into the event red reinforcement window.

‘Activation of the God of Reinforcement.’

[Activate the God of Reinforcement.

-100% chance to succeed in strengthening.

-Enhancement target: +9 A light club for beginners.

-Additional conditions required for reinforcement attempt: 175,000 Golden Rings, 1.37 million experience.

– Cooldown created upon successful enhancement: 16 hours.]

“?”

For a moment, I thought I was wrong.

Because going from 7th to 8th, a cooldown of 17 hours was created for about 240,000 golden rings.

And when going from 8th to 9th, about 500,000 golden rings and a 23 hour cooldown were created.

However, the golden ring required to go from reinforcement 9 to reinforcement 10 and the cooldown time generated decreased rather than increased.

Even more than going from reinforcement 7 to reinforcement 8.

Of course, others were created in additional necessary conditions.

That’s 1.37 million experience points.

However.

fuck.Unknowingly, a smile leaked out.

Because it’s time to focus on hunting.

In addition to learning new skills, being banned from hunting semi-forcibly was a great stress.

However, even after reaching level 9, giving up here is a very stupid thing to do.

However, looking at the 100 level of 1.37 million right now, there was something inevitably causing a lot of experience to be forcibly taken away.

level down immediately.

Of course, it’s like a squirrel spinning wheel, staying at level 100 again because of the level 100-limited enhancement quest.

But it was good anyway.

Because I can hunt with peace of mind.

And, crucially, the cooldown was only 16 hours.

‘By the way, I heard that the quest will end forcibly when you reach level 101… level down doesn’t matter, right?’

No matter how much you roll your head, it is impossible to guess.

So, after stopping for a while and logging out, I went to the ‘Revival Legend’ homepage and searched for the existence of a quest due to a level down.

However, there was not a single article that mentioned level down.

Of course, I fully understood.

It’s unlikely that you’ll get a level down while doing the enhancement quest.

Unless you deliberately level down.

So, after logging in again, I closed my eyes tightly and opened my mouth softly.

‘enforce.’

I have no intention of stopping here anyway.

However, I have no intention of leaving the god of reinforcement alone and relying on luck to try reinforcement.

So, I closed my eyes and activated the god of reinforcement and tried to strengthen it.

Then a message rang immediately.

[Level 100-limited enhancement quest has been enhanced up to 10.

-Congratulations. We succeeded in strengthening the double digits.

-The special reward given according to the enhancement level has been upgraded.][In order to activate the God of Enhancement attribute, the cooldown of 16 hours must be over.]

Although there were some four-legged sticks, this is the message that always sounded when trying to strengthen.

And another message rang out.

[The level decreases by 3 stages as the 1.37 million experience points decrease.]

“Check the quest window.”

As soon as the message sounded, the quest window was opened.

[Current Quest (1)

-100 level limited enhancement quest. (Proceeding.)]

‘Whoa.’

There is no choice but to try to strengthen it anyway.

So I did, but I had some concerns.

I wondered if the level 100 limited enhancement quest would disappear.

So when you reach level 100, you have to start over from the beginning.

Another item instead of a light club for beginners that has already been strengthened by 10.

However, I was able to breathe a sigh of relief when I saw the message that it was still in progress in the quest window.

Then there were other emotions.

The pleasure of being able to hunt right away.

I quickly stepped out of the forge.

And I ran straight to the teleport zone outside Kotum Castle.

“Moving desert anthill.”

The 23-hour cooldown gained while upgrading from 8 to 9 before attempting this enhancement.

During that time, I spent 30 minutes laughing and staring at the Ice Emperor’s guardian sword, learning various skills, etc.

However, there is still quite a bit of time left.

So, I glanced around the ‘Revival Legend’ homepage and drew a series of growth directions by pointing out where to hunt in the future.

A place where you can maximize the efficiency of your wide-area skills such as the newly learned ice field, pouring hail, and ice blasting.

And the place I found was a desert ant den.

It wasn’t there at the time of the 3rd closed beta, but it was a 300-350 level hunting ground.

It is a hunting ground that is surrounded by more than 100 ants in an instant if you forget to live in a group of at least 20 or more and move without properly organizing it.

The main evaluation was that it was not a very attractive hunting ground.

Maybe it’s because they live in groups, so the experience points they give aren’t that many, and the items they drop, including golden rings and japtems, aren’t good either.

However, it was definitely a hunting ground for a quick level up.

Although the amount of experience per animal was small, the amount of monsters that appeared first was enormous.

Anyway, it showed up soon after.

A safety zone larger than the safety zone of the golem habitat.

However.

soggy sogon.

Suk Duk Suk Duk.

Of course there was.

Users taking a break.

It’s like a party, as a group.

However, there were no so-called merchants in the golem habitat, or buff merchants who gave buffs for money.

A place where only a few users exist even though the set safety zone is larger than the golem habitat.

I could tell at a glance that it was an unattractive hunting ground.

However, since I had only seen one experience point, I did not mind and took a step towards the anthill.

Then a small voice came from within the party of 11 who were taking a break from some distance.

“what? Did you come alone?”

“I see.”

“It wouldn’t be easy to hunt alone here. Are you Goreb?”

“On that device?”

“right?”

“Leave it alone. He wants to die, so we don’t need to intervene.”

The current outfit that made my sister misunderstood.

But he didn’t care and headed straight for the ant den.

Of course, I’m thinking of hunting down here and getting items if I’m not enough.

There is a big difference between level 0 and level 100 and level 100 and level 200.

Anyway, as we continued to walk forward, he soon appeared.

5 ant dens.

“Hmm. There is a difference in difficulty in order.”

The entrance to the No. 5 anthill was the largest.

And it was also the place where the boss monster, the queen ant, came out.

First, we entered the medium-sized ant burrow No. 3.

This hunt was also a bit of a test.

Sasak. Sasak.Not long after entering ant burrow 3, I heard something tickling in my ear.

And waving its black antennae, the ants appeared.

“Um… At this point, I think it should be a giant or a giant modifier, not just an ant?”

The ants that appeared waving their two antennae were larger than expected.

It almost came to my knees.

Even the keratin that covered the body seemed hard.

And as if finding me, the ants rushed at me, waving their antennae back and forth rapidly.

They spread their sharp teeth as if they were going to cut me in two.

Taha.

Seeing that, I ran forward.

And as soon as a swarm of ants entered the range I assumed, I immediately shouted.

“Ice Field!”

Passionate!

An ice field was opened on the road where the ants were running.

[The movement speed of ants entering the ice field is reduced by 20%.]

Of course, 20% that can be dismissed as nothing more than that.

However, the ants, which were clearly faster than expected, were significantly slower than before.

And on top of the slow ants, he used the link skill that was most frequently used during the 2nd and 3rd closed betas.

“The pouring hail!”

larynx. poop poop.

“Hey!”

“Kek!”

“……”

hundreds of times? No, thousands of times.

used that much.

So I knew.

He showed more power than ever before.

Because the ants could not get out of the ice field, which was considerably wider than the original 10 meter area, probably because of my intelligence level.

As the keratin that seemed hard to block everything was broken by the pouring hail.

Of course, the damage the Ice Field itself had also played a part.

Moreover, it is the strongest.

Currently, the ants in front of me are level 300-350 monsters.

“Heh heh.”

In an instant, laughter erupted.

Because there was an anxiety that it might have stagnated too much.

Moreover, there was no promise as to how long he had to stay in this state.

However, as the strongest monster I have ever faced was easily swept away with one shot of my skill, the anxiety flew away.

“great. One more ice blast this time!”

A skill that was not used during the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd closed betas.

I was curious about its greatness.
