Chapter 43

Level 2 Player

War

“What kind of bastards dare!”

Lucas, the guild master of the Chabel Guild, issued a summons order to the guild members with an enraged expression. He summoned all guild members except for the minimum personnel residing in the guild building.

A total of 250 players gathered.

“I was hunting.”

“I was in the middle of eating.”

“I was dragged out while sleeping.”

“Don’t even talk. I was dragged out while showering.”

The Chabel Guild players who were suddenly summoned grumbled with faces mixed with dissatisfaction.

“It’s not a war, right?”

“Why are you scared? I’m rather excited.”

“Well, if a war breaks out, one can properly get a share.”

When all the summoned personnel gathered, guild master Lucas stepped forward.

“There are arrogant bastards who dared to touch our guild. From now on, we go to punish those guys!”

Lucas took the lead and 250 players followed behind him.

‘I don’t know who, but I absolutely won’t leave them alone.’

Lucas was in a state where anger rose to the top of his head. One party was wiped out. Not only that, even the investigation team of 30 who went to investigate lost their lives.

This was the same as a challenge to the Chabel Guild.

‘They’re not easy guys.’

He thought the possibility of it being a party composed of quite skilled people was high. Lucas was a possessor of an impatient and violent personality, but he was not a foolish person. Therefore, he knew better than anyone about the importance of information.

‘It’s not a party belonging to a giant guild.’

Guilds with a certain scale set each other’s areas and move. So unless in special cases, there is no chance of colliding in the hunting grounds at all.

‘Given their personalities, if the opponent belonged to a giant guild, they wouldn’t have touched them from the start.’

The ones who died first were guys with a strong thug tendency of being strong against the weak and weak against the strong.

‘The probability that the enemies are under 10 is high.’

Also, they probably aren’t famous strong people that everyone knows.

‘Is it the Allen party guys? Or the Yamamoto party?’

Lucas narrowed down the suspects.

‘Whoever it is, it doesn’t matter.’

Anyway, as long as they are active near this city, even if they have skill, the limit was clear.

No matter what kind of guys, they cannot overcome the numbers of 250 people.

‘They probably have quite a lot of points too.’

Since they defeated 40 players, they will unconditionally have points in the hundreds of millions.

‘If guys who die while fighting arise, the possessed points will increase more.’

Lucas outwardly pretended to be a loyal guild master who cherishes the guild members. But the inner heart was different.

The Chabel Guild members were also nothing more than prey that had to be eaten someday for Lucas.

‘Push with numbers to exhaust stamina and mana, then I finish it.’

Then he can easily recover the points and items the Chabel Guild members have earned so far.

‘Even without that, I was planning to cause a dispute and harvest points soon.’

Since they caused a dispute on their own, there was nothing bad from Lucas’s perspective. But he had no intention of letting his guard down and no intention of being ridiculously caught while being arrogant. Therefore, he scraped together all the remaining guild members while pretending to be greatly enraged.

Even if the enemy was hiding enormous skill beyond common sense, to create a situation where they have no choice but to win unconditionally.

250 players belonging to the Chabel Guild headed high-spiritedly to the place where the rescue signal came. When they arrive there, they were about to start the full-scale hunting.

Shushushushuk!

At that time, a rain of arrows poured from above the trees.

Puuk!

“Keuek!”

“Keuk!”

The arrows accurately targeted only the healers and mages wearing robes and holding staffs.

“It’s an ambush!”

“Block! Protect the healers and mages!”

The tankers raised their shields and the healers and mages also cast defense skills to protect their own lives.

“Die! Flame Storm!”

“Shoot arrows!”

Attack skills and arrows flew toward the tops of the trees. The assassins also quickly charged and surrounded the trees.

Hwareureureuk!

Kwaaaaaang!

At that time, a bright red flame soared from the completely opposite direction.

“Aaaak!”

“Save me!”

“Hot! Too hot!”

“There’s a mage on the opposite side!”

“Aak! My head hurts!”

“I can’t see anything! I can’t see!”

“My body is rotting!”

“It’s curse skills and decay skills! There’s also a dark-type healer!”

With two ambushes, chaos broke out in an instant.

‘A mistake.’

Lucas’s face distorted fiercely.

A whopping 250 players were gathered in one place. Naturally, he expected a situation where a battle breaks out while pursuing the fleeing enemy, but he didn’t expect a situation of being ambushed first.

Because they moved gathered in one group, the damage became larger.

‘It’s on top of that tree.’

Taak!

Lucas drew his sword and stepped forward.

Originally, he intended to step forward after appropriately consuming the subordinates. But this flow was dangerous.

Seogeok!

Lucas cut down the tree where the mage was as is.

Kuuung!

As the tree fell, he threw his body. He was thinking of cutting off the breath of the mage and healer.

“Huh?”

But there was no one on top of the fallen tree.

‘What is this?’

Kwaaaaaang!

At that time, a magic attack skill flew from behind the rock.

‘This time I won’t miss.’

He quickly threw his body and swung the sword.

Seogeok!

The rock was cut like styrofoam.

‘Gone again?’

But there was no one behind the rock.

‘Is it a space movement skill? Or a stealth skill?’

Lucas’s mind became complicated.

Hwareureuk!

Pueeeong!

In the meantime, the guild members of the Chabel Guild were being unilaterally attacked by magic attack skills and curse and decay skills.

‘I’ll kill them.’

Lucas flashed his eyes and ran toward the direction where the magic attack skill flew. This time he didn’t attack rashly. He sharpened his sense and concentrated on the flow of mana.

‘Shadow?’

A flow of mana was felt from the shadow created by the dense trees.

Hwiik!

Lucas swung the sword as is.

Pagang!

A large shield popped out from the shadow and blocked Lucas’s attack.

“Caught! This guy!”

Lucas flashed his eyes.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Blue light aura spewed out in streams from Lucas’s sword.

Kwaaaaaang!

When he exploded the aura, along with bright light, the shadow scattered and a knight holding a shield and wearing armor, a warrior holding a greatsword, and a mage and healer wearing robes popped out from inside.

‘These aren’t players.’

He thought the enemy was a player who learned stealth-type skills. But the opponent was not human.

‘Summons.’

Lucas grasped the situation in an instant.

“Kill these guys!”

Since the position was revealed, there was nothing to fear.

Hwiik!

Kwaaang! Kwaaang! Kwaaang!

Lucas continued the fierce attack while using attack skills in succession, and the other guild members joined after that.

“Don’t give a gap! These guys can hide in the shadows! I’ll hold the tanker and warrior, so aim for the healer and mage first! And find the summoner who should be nearby!”

Lucas raised his voice and shouted.

“Rat-like bastards!”

“I’ll kill them!”

The guild members of the Chabel Guild moved busily according to Lucas’s instructions.

Shushushushuk!

At that time, arrow attacks flew at the guild members of the Chabel Guild.

Peopeopeok!

“Keuek!”

“Aak!”

That wasn’t the end.

Puuk!

“Kulluk!”

“It’s an assassin!”

The Shadow Assassin aimed at the healers and mages and attempted active assassination. The guild members of the Chabel Guild didn’t just stand still and take it.

“Catch the archer and assassin!”

“Light Sphere!”

“Eye that Illuminates the Darkness!”

“Shackle of Binding!”

The guild members of the Chabel Guild entered a large-scale counterattack.

Kwaaang!

Pueeeong!

“Aaaak!”

“Here!”

“Disappeared?”

“Attack the shadow where mana is felt!”

“Find the summoner!”

The Shadow Summons and the guild members of the Chabel Guild engaged in a fierce close fight.

***

‘Overall the level is high.’

Jin-su who was watching the battle situation from a distant place coldly evaluated the combat power of the Chabel Guild.

‘It’s a degree where they can even go over to the next city.’

The reason they continue to stay in the starting city which is like a beginner village even though they have such skill was probably to hunt the same players.

‘They also seem to have abundant real combat experience.’

They quickly noticed the existence of the Shadow Summons hiding in the shadows. Moreover, as soon as they noticed the identity of the Shadow Summons, they moved to find the summoner.

‘The response is also quite skilled.’

The tankers received the attacks of the Shadow Archer or Shadow Mage with their own bodies and protected the healers and mages. The healers and mages also did their best to support.

The other dealers also poured fierce attacks from the best positions each could do.

‘There are many.’

He launched an ambush and even after that reduced a considerable number through counterattacks. Even so, the guild members of the Chabel Guild remained close to 200. The biggest problem was that the number of deaths was gradually decreasing.

Because of the tankers’ defense and the healers who actively use recovery skills and protection skills.

‘Since the skilled ones also have many numbers, it’s not easy.’

Hoping to resolve it with only the summons seemed to have been excessive greed.

“I think I have to join. You stay here.”

Jin-su said to Shin Su-a.

“Okay.”

Shin Su-a nodded her head with a bright expression.

“You also stay here. Or shall I reverse summon you?”

Jin-su said to Leo.

“Nyaaaang!”

Leo transmitted a strong refusal.

“If you go with me, you might die.”

The disadvantage of living-type summons is that if they die in the summoned state, they really die. It was a different situation from inanimate-type summons that can be re-summoned after cooldown if materials are sufficient even if forcibly reverse summoned.

“Kyakkyakkyak!”

At the words that they might die, Leo opened its mouth wide and burst into a sneer.

‘Does this guy have no fear?’

In his heart, he really wanted to take it and make it properly experience what a crisis of death is. But he really couldn’t do so.

“Just eat this and quietly watch.”

Jin-su took out a lot of meat chunks from the inventory.

“Meow! Ujeok! Ujeok! Ujeok!”

Leo transmitted the meaning of understanding and then immediately started a meat mukbang.

“Then I’ll be back.”

Jin-su said that and left in a flash.

“Sniff sniff sniff!”

Leo who was unfolding a meat mukbang in a daze tilted its head. Because a fresh blood smell pierced the nose from nearby.

“Nyaang?”

When Leo turned its head, the scene of red blood dripping from Shin Su-a’s tightly clenched fist entered. She clenched her fist so tightly that her nails pierced the skin.

“Nyaung?”

Leo looked at Shin Su-a with eyes of is that one crazy and then continued the meat mukbang again.

‘I’m still a burden.’

Although Shin Su-a who sent Jin-su off with a brightly smiling face, her insides were burning. She thought she was growing and helping Jin-su in her own way. But even in the previous battle and even now, she was only a burden that Jin-su had to protect.

‘Just watch. Next time I won’t just watch from far away like this.’

Not just casting blessing and protection skills on Jin-su and the summons before the battle is the end.

She will participate in the battle together and give help.

***

“Flame Storm, Flame Barrier, Flame Explosion.”

Hwareureuk!

Pueeeong!

Jin-su used magic attack skills and hit the backs of the heads of the Chabel Guild members who were pouring fierce attacks on the Shadow Knight and Shadow Warrior.

“Aaaak!”

“There are more enemies!”

“It’s a mage! Over there!”

The Chabel Guild members who were hit by Jin-su’s magic attack skills screamed and charged.

Taak!

Jin-su who replaced equipment through the inventory gripped the Bloodsucking Sword and Shining Longsword and ran forward.

Seogeok! Jwaak!

He swung the two swords and cut the necks of the charging Chabel Guild members.

Chwareureureuk!

The Bloodsucking Sword greedily ate the blood they shed.

“Be careful, they’re not ordinary skilled people!”

“Block!”

Kwaaaaang!

The Bloodsucking Sword full of mana was blocked by the tanker’s shield.

“Kill!”

Players aiming weapons charged from all sides.

Pueong!

Jin-su immediately kicked toward the shield, pulled his body back, and swung the sword.

Seogeok!

The players who charged to kill Jin-su conversely lost their lives.

‘There is no need to particularly bother dealing with the tankers.’

Jin-su avoided the tankers and aimed at the dealers or healers.

“Taunt!”

The tanker players cast taunt skills toward Jin-su. If a player is caught by a taunt skill, they momentarily lose reason and attack the user.

‘Would I get caught?’

With how much Mental Power stat Jin-su has, would he get caught by a taunt skill? Jin-su avoided the tankers and quickly eliminated the dealers and healers.
