Chapter 268
Chapter 268
[During the pioneer protection period, Sung JiHan entered the territory of the opposing race, the 'Join Tribe'. The 'Conflict Suppression' debuff is applied. All stats are reduced by 70 percent.]
[The 'Join Tribe' receives the 'Pioneer Protection' buff. They receive a buff that doubles their stats against intruders.]
[The debuff is lifted when outside the territory of the Join Tribe.]
[*Caution: You are the leader. If you die here, the entire race will be eliminated from the league competition.]
Step by step.
Sung JiHan continued to move forward, casually observing the messages pouring in.
"My body feels quite heavy."
He could only use 30 percent of his usual strength.
Until a moment ago, he could summon up to five divine judgments, but now even two seemed impossible.
Meanwhile.
"Intruder human? Is that the 4th ranked race?"
"To come here alone... how audacious."
"Let's tear him apart and feast on his flesh!"
"Do you not remember the last match? He might be a powerful being like an elf. Call our comrades who are outside!"
"Hey! The buffs and debuffs have already been applied, so why are you causing trouble against one person!"
Swoosh. Swoosh!
Some of the Join Tribe members who were flying in the sky came flying towards Sung JiHan like arrows.
Compared to those who had thrown filth at him a moment ago, the Join Tribe had become much faster.
They were clearly enjoying the buff that doubled their stats.
"I'll be the one to eat his eyeballs!"
The first one to come flying was a human with golden wings.
Sung JiHan slightly widened his eyes when he saw him.
"So, he was the one who ranked 1st in the Join Tribe in the future."
Although he couldn't remember his name, he was a quite powerful warrior among the Join Tribe.
However, in Sung JiHan's previous life, he had been defeated multiple times.
He would always say, "I won't fight you!" and escape in the sky whenever Sung JiHan approached.
"I need to instill fear in him earlier than before."
Sssss...
Eclipse rose from Sung JiHan's left arm.
Honwon Singong.
Samjae Muguk.
Hwangsocheongun.
"What...!"
The golden Join Tribe member felt the sword energy extending from the black sword and tried to block it with his own spear.
Crack!
The spear, along with his upper body, was torn to pieces and fell to the ground.
And...
"What, what is this...?"
"I must have been debuffed..."
Even the Join Tribe member who was following him from behind was sliced in one go.
With their upper bodies split and falling to the ground, they struggled to move their beaks and quickly logged out.
Sung JiHan swept away five Join Tribe members with his sword.
"What kind of power is this!"
"Indeed, he must be the 4th ranked race!"
"He's a formidable opponent. But since he doesn't have wings, let's keep our distance and restrain him from afar!"
"Never approach him!"
The Join Tribe members, the opposing race, were astonished by Sung JiHan's sword and showed a strong sense of caution.
"They have definitely weakened."
However, Sung JiHan, who had unleashed Hwangsocheongun, was not satisfied with his sword strikes.
Originally, he had intended to sweep away not just five, but also the Join Tribe members in the sky.
But the sword energy of Samjae Muguk did not reach that far.
"Still, he doesn't seem threatening."
Even if the opponent has buffs, Sung JiHan had debuffs on himself.
The basic difference in power was so significant that the gap couldn't be closed.
"Attack!"
Fissi-sik!
From the sky, along with wind attribute attack magic, arrows flew strongly, but...
Sss...
When Eclipse turned into a black whirlwind, all the attacks were sucked into it.
Blocked by the Dark Soul Wave, the resistance of the Join Tribe.
Sung JiHan saw that and put strength into his feet.
"Finish it quickly."
Zzz...
When currents flowed under Sung JiHan's feet, his figure quickly disappeared from the ground.
"Where did he go...?"
"H-Here!"
"Ahh!"
Seogeong!
For the Join Tribe, hell had begun.
* * *
"What, what is this? What the hell is he...!"
The leader of the Join Tribe widened his eyes.
Clearly, the system message said it was the Pioneer Protection Period.
But a being from the current 4th place 'Humanity' was mercilessly overpowering his fellow tribesmen.
"K-Keke!"
"This guy is stronger than an elf...!"
"I definitely received a 2x buff on my stats!"
Chiik!
Even though they received buffs from the system and became much stronger than usual.
Every time the faceless humanity swung his sword lightly, the Join Tribe couldn't resist and split in half, falling.
500 were summoned, but now there were barely 100 of their fellow tribesmen left.
The members of the First Guild of the Join Tribe flew to the leader with urgent faces.
"G-Guild Master. We should retreat for now...!"
"If the leader is captured, we'll be disqualified!"
"We'll do our best to stop him!"
"Ah, I understand!"
Only one person.
And even that person was retreating like this after being hit by a debuff, it was embarrassing.
But considering the fact that they were currently in last place in the Space League, they had to survive even if it was disgraceful.
"Humanity... We'll distance ourselves as much as possible from this monster race and regain our territory! We have to avoid last place!"
Flutter! Flutter!
The Join Tribe with golden feathers hurriedly fled.
"Ahhhh...!"
From behind, the screams of their fellow tribesmen echoed endlessly.
Pretending not to hear it, the leader of the Join Tribe, who was flying diligently, turned around.
Stab!
"Kuk...!"
As the golden wings were torn apart, he looked back with trembling eyes.
There, the faceless race, humanity, stood with red currents wrapped around his body.
"You're the leader."
"N-No!"
"No, everyone else is dead except for you."
"...What?"
The leader of the Jo'in tribe responded with disbelief.
"Go."
As the tip of Eclipse's sword trembled.
Silence!
His neck fell from the sky to the ground.
[Special achievement, 'Early Elimination of Competitor' achieved.]
[Obtained 1,000,000 achievement points.]
[Special achievement, 'Early Annihilation of Pioneer as a Solo Player' achieved.]
[Obtained 3,000,000 achievement points.]
Despite being in the pioneer protection period, he single-handedly annihilated the enemies, resulting in a tremendous influx of achievement points.
[Obtained 3941 planet points.]
[Reached the maximum of 100,000 planet points. Cannot store any more.]
[To collect more planet points, you must construct a base camp.]
The planet points had also reached the maximum.
"Now I have to go build a base camp."
While Sung JiHan finished his northern reconnaissance and returned.
-Today, while watching the broadcast, I became certain. The Jo'in tribe definitely lays the foundation for humanity.
-For real, Sung JiHan, who can only use 30% of his power, got roasted.
Viewers were giving various evaluations of the newly encountered race, the Jo'in tribe.
-But their flying ability is a scam, right? They're not a race to be ignored.
-Exactly. Just imagine if Sung JiHan wasn't there, they would have been devastated in the air, right?
-Well, even if you look at it, they're weaker than the dragon race or the elves, right?
-?? If someone saw this, they would think that humanity won, lol.
-It's not that humanity won, it's that Sung JiHan won, those two races...
The Jo'in tribe, with a larger build and wings, capable of high-speed flight.
Judging solely based on their race specs, they definitely seemed stronger than humans in the BattleNet.
But due to Sung JiHan's fight with them, it was difficult to obtain objective data about them.
-They're too strong, it's a problem. Can't analyze the enemy.
-Still, I hope he continues to be strong.
-For real... We don't need to analyze. I just want Sung JiHan to keep getting stronger and ride the bus until the end of BattleNet.
-That's why! Since he let our lowest-ranking race breathe the high air... he should take responsibility until the end, right?
While analyzing the Jo'in tribe, when they ultimately concluded that they could only trust Sung JiHan and move forward.
"Oh, Uncle's here!"
Sung JiHan arrived in the territory of humanity.
The people who were scattered everywhere for reconnaissance when they departed earlier.
Now they had gathered again in their respective guilds.
"Why is everyone gathered? Didn't we say we were going for reconnaissance?"
"Oh. We were also fighting giant insects and collecting points... but suddenly it reached 100,000. So we decided to return for now."
"I see."
After annihilating the Jo'in tribe, they obtained the maximum planet points.
It seemed that it applied to the entire race.
"But I saw a message earlier. The Jo'in tribe was wiped out?"
"That's right. JiHan, didn't you just say you were going for northern reconnaissance?"
"That's right. But when I saw the opposing race, I took care of them as well."
"We had a hard time even catching a few giant bugs, but Uncle wiped out an entire race..."
"Oh. They were quite weak. They seemed to be at the bottom of the rankings."
As Sung JiHan, who received such a harsh evaluation from the Jo'in tribe, walked towards the center of humanity's territory.
A message appeared before him.
"Would you like to construct a base camp?"
"I need 10,000 Planet Points."
"The human race eliminated the competing race, 'Joinjok'."
"If you invest an additional 10,000 Planet Points, you can utilize the Joinjok's pioneering characteristic 'Sky Hole' in the base camp."
"Would you like to invest more Planet Points?"
"Sky Hole? Does it have something to do with flying abilities?"
Anyway, Sung JiHan had made up his mind to utilize it in the human base camp.
When he pressed the example.
Kururur......!
The ground split open, and a modern high-rise building was summoned in no time.
"Oh. I was wondering what the base camp was about...."
"A building has been constructed!"
And at the same time.
The cracked ground was replaced by concrete flooring.
In the desert planet, it looked like a section of the urban area of Earth had been implemented.
"The Sky Hole characteristic is activated."
However, the building that was stuck to the ground like that soon.
Boooooom......!
It floated up into the air, becoming a floating base camp.
"The human territory expands further."
"You can detect indigenous life forms and enemy races faster."
"The enemy race can find the location of the base camp more easily."
The Sky Hole characteristic of the Joinjok has clear advantages and disadvantages.
"For now, expanding the territory is important."
Sung JiHan still thought that the benefits outweighed the disadvantages.
"Now, what should I build?"
With 80,000 Planet Points remaining.
While Sung JiHan was contemplating where to invest them.
-Customer~! The packaging of the bio-robots is complete! Shall I open the trade window?
He received a message from Artmu.
-Really? Do I need to prepare 10 billion GP?
-That's right! The bio-robots will greatly reduce the points required for your race's base camp construction. It's quite a headache to gather Planet Points... but they will greatly reduce the initial expenditure.
-Will they accumulate quickly?
-Even so, it's only been an hour since the game started... Haven't you gathered enough points to build a base camp?
-No. I wiped out a race and reached the maximum of 100,000.
-That's an absurd statement... It's probably the pioneer protection period. Is it possible to say such a thing?
Even Sung JiHan's message didn't make Artmu believe it.
-You don't need any more initial expenditure. Bio-robots.
-Wait, wait! Wait a minute!
When Sung JiHan tried to withdraw his intention to purchase, Artmu quickly stopped him.
-The usefulness of the bio-robots is not just that! If the base camp was really built as you said... resource collection! It can automatically collect resources!
-Resource collection?
-Yes! How valuable are the resources obtained from the planet development map! I greatly evolved our dwarves there!
-Good. Open the trade window.
If it was only used for a discount on Planet Points, Sung JiHan wasn't going to buy it, but if it had a use for resource collection.
Sung JiHan made the decision to purchase.
And so, the summoned bio-robot dwarves scattered around.
"Obtained resource, 'Seven Hearts of the Indigenous Species'."
"The vitality of the human race is slightly enhanced."
"...What?"
He came out with a reward that he never expected.
