Closed Beta I Played Alone

Chapter 7

Episode 7. A bankrupt game company.

It’s been 1 week since the 3rd closed beta started.

“How can people give so much?”

Obviously, there were quite a few on the first day.

Wherever I go, I can easily meet people.

However, as time passed, it became apparent that the number decreased sharply.

So I had no choice but to worry.

I thought that the game company would go bankrupt because it was judged that there was no marketability.

Of course, he did not stop hunting in the meantime.

Indeed, as I predicted, the 3rd Closed Beta max level was 300, and the deadline was still only 2 weeks.

So, the meal time is 5 minutes.

I had no choice but to reduce the amount of time I slept to less than 2-3 hours a day.

Otherwise, reaching level 300 in two weeks seemed far away.

Of course, it is only natural for the governor to feel tired and tired after a week of continuous marching like this.

But even then, there was a reason I couldn’t stop.

After two weeks of closed beta, your memory and concentration will increase exponentially for the rest of your vacation?

no.

There was a bigger reason than that.

It’s just that it’s fun nonetheless.

“Kukk. Ice Field! pour out Hail!”

He didn’t stop like that, and he concentrated on hunting.

While ignoring the majority of users swearing at the game company for being so serious about what kind of closed beta it is.

One hour before the end of the 3rd Closed Beta.

“Suppress my enemies. Ice Prison!”

bang! bang! bang!

“sign. liver. porridge. is.”

“this. forest. to. field. uh. On. ruler. Is. fat. Ah. me. go. Ji. pond. One. all.”

“huh! Let’s see who survives. ice field. There is superimposed thin ice!”

You have entered the cursed forest that gives the most experience in the 3rd Closed Beta.

And he fired ice-based magic against the cursed Ents who were the lords of this place.

Of course, a hunting ground more specialized for fire than my ice type.

But it wasn’t a huge crowd.

Because the cursed ents were so slow.

There it was slower because of the frostbite derived from my ice family.

He used a wide-area skill hail over the ents who were soon trapped in the ice prison and the ents showing a slow pace.

Then, with the screams of short-haired horses, the cursed ents fell helplessly.

And the message rang.

The long-awaited message.

[Level has risen.]

dump.

Clearly, until just recently, he filled his entire body with tension and immersed himself in hunting.

But, as if it had ever happened, there was no choice but to collapse without strength.

Because this is the message that announces the last level 300.

“Whoa.”

let out a long sigh.

day? No, two days.

I haven’t slept for exactly two days.

Because it took a while to reach max level.

So when I died, I went to hunt.

I don’t know if I’d given up from the beginning, let’s live when we die like this, and if the 3rd closed beta ends at level 299 or level 298, there is nothing worse than that.

“Soundbite.”

He squeezed his knees and stood up.

Cursed Ents will respawn soon.

And quickly escaped the cursed forest.

Whew.

it was quiet

Of course, the end time of the 3rd closed beta with less than an hour left.

Therefore, it was understandable that there were no users in the hunting grounds.

But it wasn’t even in the city.

Clearly, in the 1st and 2nd rounds, despite the fact that there were quite a few people who were trying to strengthen them by testing the luck of the items they had before the end, and those who wanted to find the most efficient skill tree.

“Check game user.”

-Currently, there is 1 game user.

“……”

1 person.

I had no choice but to keep silent because the system knew who was talking.

Then he quietly opened his mouth.

“Phew. This game can’t even be opened and will be ruined.”

And as soon as I finished my words, my body moved to the first wheat field and the message rang.

A message announcing the end of the 3rd closed beta.

[-Forgotten Legend’s 3rd closed beta has ended.

：

：

Thank you again to all users who participated.]

At the end of the first and at the end of the second, there was a message announcing the next closed beta.

But this time it wasn’t.

That is, the third car is the last.

Of course, if it’s a normal game, all that’s left now is the official opening.

However, I was very concerned that the message said that there is currently only one game user.

It is unreasonable no matter how you look at it to officially open with this number of users.

Soon, a small island that I had set up, blocked by water on all sides, appeared.

“Virtual reality connector is closed.”

– Terminate the virtual reality connection.

First of all, the connection was terminated because it was over.

Then he got up from the bed, drank a glass of water next to him, and threw himself back on the bed.

Utilizing the obvious memory and concentration?

I was too sleepy to even think about it.

Since 2 weeks ago, I only slept 2-3 hours a day at most, but since 2 days ago, I haven’t slept at all.

Coul.

So I fell asleep.

In my head, I thought that it would be good if the game called ‘Forgotten Legend’ would open normally.

months later.

20XX University Scholastic Ability Test.

It was easy.

all the problems.

Of course, some problems that require creativity took a little time, but it wasn’t a big deal because of the knowledge I had in my head.

In addition, a second foreign language was selected.

It is in Russian, which boasts the lowest level of difficulty, so the number of applicants is the lowest.

Of course, I memorized the entire dictionary in Russian, including English, Arabic, and Chinese.

So, it was possible to choose Chinese and Arabic as a second language, but I wanted to stand out.

that others avoid.

Of course, the reason this was possible was that after completing the 2nd closed beta, I had a lot of preparation for the SAT, so there was quite a bit of time left during the 3rd closed beta.

So I turned my attention to a foreign language.

Because there is nothing that looks more cool than speaking a foreign language fluently.

Anyway, I finished all the exams in a shorter time than others and even finished my second language and returned home.

And the follow-up shop.

Of course, the perfect score came out.

In addition to textbooks, EBS, and other famous study materials, the genealogy and problems given by the instructors at Daechi-dong, Gangnam, were completely put in my head without making any mistakes.

But it wasn’t as enjoyable.

because it’s completely gone.

The homepage of ‘Forgotten Legend’ itself.

“Hmm. Shouldn’t you have done it beforehand?”

In the past, the seeds would not have worked, but now it is different.

When I told my dad, it was enough to take over the game company.

Billions of dollars is a very small amount of money.

But there is a saying that curiosity kills a cat.

So, I was afraid that all the things I had gained through my intervention would disappear, so I could not get my hands on it prematurely.

First of all, the exam in front of me was more important.

Then it broke before I even tried to use it.

Not long after the 3rd closed beta ended.

Of course, I am very fortunate that the knowledge I had accumulated in my head did not disappear in the meantime.

“after. great. Because I can dig it up again later.”

Secret.

It was unclear if this was only happening to me or if there were other cases like mine.

Moreover, it is not something of a nature to be told to others.

So, even though there were people all over the world who would recognize my words, I didn’t tell anyone.

And that’s how I got into it.

Seoul National University, Department of Business Administration.

Even as a full senior.

Up until this point, I thought everything was perfect.

Not only did he have tremendous knowledge, but he also mastered several foreign languages.

But it didn’t take long to find out that it was a mistake.

“Adam Smith is known as the father of economics and is the author of [The Wealth of Nations], the basis of classical economics. He attempted to shift the field of observation of economics from the interests of the rulers to the interests of the class.”

“……”

I stared blankly at the professor above the church.

I’m so numb that I don’t know how time flies.

Then the class was over.

“Then next time we will talk about land and capital. Please prepare in advance.”

“Yes.”

“all right.”

Motives to respond to the professor’s words.

But I couldn’t.

Because, obviously, even though I was admitted as a senior, I did not understand the professor at all.

thud.

Instantly, he dropped his head on the desk.

‘I was stupid. I was so stupid. A second language wasn’t a problem!’

Considering the circumstances of my family and my older brother and sister, my career path is, of course, business administration.

Then I had to prepare.

Rather than being buried in the SAT and a second foreign language, about business administration to learn at university.

But then I hadn’t even thought about it.

Because I got the finish line through the SAT.

So, if I did well on the SAT, I thought that everything would have a happy ending.

I never thought that a new world like this would unfold.

“Jooyoung, let’s go eat.”

“right. It’s time to eat, but what do you think?”

popular person.

In college, I am very popular.

Gold spoon No, because I was born with a diamond spoon in my mouth.

Plus, being smart enough to enter Seoul National University is an added bonus.

“Nope. I have something to worry about. You guys go first.”

“okay?”

“okay. Anyway, take it easy. You don’t like the look of your face.”

“Hahaha. okay.”

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the words of my friends who had come to college and made an acquaintance.

’cause there’s no choice but to

I bit my friends and sat there for a while longer to think.

Especially since the midterm exams are just around the corner.

will definitely be blown away

‘Fuck! Fuck!’

A swear word came out of nowhere.

Then, without realizing it, I picked up my phone and searched for ‘Forgotten Legend’.

Just once.

Because I only have one more chance.

Then you will be able to put all the knowledge you need in the future into your head.

But nothing came out.

So I got up from my seat.

for vacation.

I couldn’t afford to take the midterm exam in the current state.
