SSS-Class Ranker Return

Nothing is impossible (2)

Time passed quickly as Lokan locked himself in the training ground and beat the scarecrow.

One day, two days, three days, four days... … Ten days passed in an instant.

‘Time is fast.’

Not only did the strategy of 'Take care of the squirrel' suddenly known, but people who had already reached level 10 and escaped from Pocket City appeared one after another.

Thanks to word of mouth, the number of new users increased, but thanks to the game company separating the tutorial town under the name of Pocket City, there were no problems with access or being hit by people.

Pocket City itself is like an instant dungeon, so everyone is not gathered in one place, but rather separate spaces like channels. Therefore, even if we started together, in most cases we could not meet in Pocket City.

Therefore, it was said that each individual had to overcome the pocket city and move to the main continent.

Still, there were some who were in the spotlight across all pocket cities. Those who show great adaptability from the beginning and go ahead, and one person who has stood still for a fortnight.

It was Locan.

Except for a few who started late without any information and were caught, Lokan was beating the scarecrow in the same way as in the beginning at the training ground that was almost annihilated.

People looked at him, mocked him, and pointed his fingers at him, but he didn't stop.

Even if someone complained, I ignored it. After all, if you show off your strength in this safety zone, you will be dragged away by the guards and suffer hardship.

In the meantime, the ability level went up evenly and steadily.

[Strength has been increased by 1.]

[Strength, Dexterity, Stamina, and Stamina have reached their maximum increase. You can no longer increase your stats at the training ground.]

[Unbelievable achievement! I applaud you for your efforts that persistently tormented the Scarecrow without knowing giving up.]

[You have acquired the title ‘No Oh Oh Hyukga’.]

[Awesome achievement! It is not an exaggeration to say that you are the best seller in the village, who can easily break a scarecrow in one minute.]

[Acquired the title ‘My Neighborhood Cheonha Jangsa’]

[Nooooohyukga][Unique]

You, who overcame things that were impossible with hard work! Your challenges are endless.

[Hold Effect]

-Experience required to level up is reduced by 10%.

[My Neighborhood Cheonha Jangsa] [Rare]

You easily break scarecrows, and you are the best merchant in the village.

[Hold Effect]

-Strength +5

And finally, the stats rose to the maximum that could be raised at the training ground.

It wasn't as blissful as people think. Because he was only at level 5 and was able to destroy a scarecrow in less than a minute.

People thought it was because he had leveled up by beating the Scarecrow, but Lokan had not yet used any spare stats. If you invest in spare ability, it will be difficult to raise that ability further.

Thanks to that, Lokan finally achieved the title he was aiming for.

It's not the kind of title with an initial bonus, but the effect itself was great.The title ‘No Oh Myokga’ reduces the experience required to level up by a whopping 10%. Users who obtained this title in their previous lives stood out, causing a training ground syndrome a few years after the release of The Road.

He was buried at an appropriate level because he was too late and not in a situation where he could make the game a business, but Rokhan had a crush on his amazing pace of growth and a fighting style similar to his own, and had a chance to hang out with him.

This secret was also heard when he quit the game because of his wife's annoyance.

No, there was still one more secret.

“I want to use the advanced training ground.”

When there was nothing more to gain from the training ground, Lokan offered the advanced training ground access to the NPC who was always watching him.

If he didn't get the access to the advanced training ground from the unknown chest, he would be able to get it after beating the scarecrow for three more days and then going through a few quests. Lokan was able to reduce his toil thanks to this.

“Follow me.”

He looked bewildered at Rokhan's abrupt offer of access to the advanced training ground, but he soon regained his composure and led him to the hidden secret training ground as programmed.

“Now that you have this, you know the rules, once you get out of here, it’s over.”

profit... … . Koo!

The NPC who pushed Lokan in closed the heavy iron gate and locked him in. If you want to get out, you can knock on the iron door three times to open it, but then you're done. You will no longer be able to get access to the advanced training ground or use the advanced training ground again.

Since it was something he already knew, Lokan checked his condition first.

‘I have enough food.’

If you were lucky enough to get a food box and money bag from an unknown box, you were lucky. Thanks to that, I bought a bunch of bread with the best value for money and kept them in my inventory.

It had already survived ten days, but it seemed that this ship could hold out longer.

New scarecrows appeared in front of him.

“This is it.”

The so-called moving scarecrow. In the training ground outside, if you were dealing with the guys who were fixed in place, you had to roll around with the guys who were moving and even counterattacking.

Its attack power is also great, and if you hit it, you can die. And at the moment of death, the right to use the advanced training ground was equally disqualified.

But Lokan wasn't worried. Rather, I wished they were strong enough to make them nervous.

“Please hold on a long time.”

To get the title and additional stats, he was only beating a scarecrow that he couldn't compete with, and even his senses were rusting.

Restarting The Road was to feel the thrill of battle, so it didn't matter if the opponent was strong.

“Come on, toys!”

Lokan, who relaxed lightly, ran towards the moving scarecrow like an animal.

* * *

1 month. The world was turned upside down in that short period of time.

There was only one reason for the change.

There have been several virtual reality games in the past, but it was because of The Road, which even had the modifier ‘This is the only real thing, the first’. A great game appeared.

At first, due to the high account fee, only a few played out of curiosity, but as the video of the play spread by word of mouth, the number of new users rapidly increased.

Along with that, the dedicated connection capsule was also sold out. Quantity could not keep up with demand.

The top-end products were very expensive, as high as 15 million won, but the rich continued to send messages to the game companies saying they would like to purchase even more if the quantity is sufficient.

That was happening all over the world. The Road was a game that was released not only in Korea but also around the world.

Still, what is surprising is that no one has yet met foreigners. Since the game company only gave the answer, 'We will meet when the time is right', speculation has given rise to speculation and has spread through numerous rumors.

But in fact it didn't matter. Rather, comments about who is ahead and who is the strongest have swept the internet.

Humans are not animals that like to rank, and the game does not provide a ranking system yet, but online, each person was selecting the highest number based on their own standards.

According to that record, the level of the user group who is raising the level the fastest is about 50. Most of them were also Koreans. The gamers of Korea, called the battle nation and the game nation, were doing a great job this time as well.

On the other hand, there were quite a few users who behaved unusually. Because it was a game with a lot of freedom, there were a lot of people who enjoyed other content besides combat and leveling up.

Among them, the ‘training maniac’, which was one of the most famous ones, reappeared 20 days after it disappeared.

It was Locan.

“Whoa! It was close.”

Rokhan obtained everything from the advanced training ground and reappeared.

He had been rolling for decades, and his appearance was a mess, but his expression was supremely bright.

Reach level 10.

He was forcibly expelled after meeting the final training requirements of the advanced training center.

But, luckily, Lokan showed his wits at the last moment and obtained the additional stats to the maximum.

The increase in additional stats was determined purely by luck, so it is impossible to just hit it. Moreover, it was difficult for Lokan to unintentionally raise his stats due to the title effect.

So the trick that Lokan came up with was the 'curse'. He was afflicted with the 'Curse of Weakness' by using a magic scroll obtained from an unknown chest on himself.

The effect of the Curse of Weakness is a decrease in all stats. It is a curse that can cause quite a bit of trouble if you are in a normal battle. However, since Lokan was raising his additional stats, the additional stats increased more easily as his stats decreased. And he finally managed to reach the maximum extra stats.

So Rokhan got everything he could get from the advanced training ground and came out.

In addition to the additional stats, there was only one thing that I got from the advanced training ground.

He was able to get one title this time as well, just as he got everything from the training ground and got the title of Noh Oh Hyuk.

But even Lokan didn't know what this was. Even those who had won the title of no-oh-oh-yeok in the past did not see the end at the advanced training center.

And surprisingly, the title that Lokan had won was familiar to him.

[First][Indomitable Will][Epic]

You have an indomitable will that never gives up!

No one can break your will to never give up under any circumstances.

You are the first to win this title.

[Hold Effect]

-Resist all negative psychic effects.

-When HP falls below 5%, all stats increase by 50%

‘Indomitable will’!

This was the same title as a proprietary patent for Rokan in his previous life.

Although the title Lokan obtained in his previous life was of a lower unique rank than what he has now obtained, it was combined with the other skills he used to produce the highest efficiency.

It was after meeting this title that Rokhan earned the title of King of Violence.“You can get this here. This time, I won’t have to go through that hardship.”

In the past, of course, I got this title after a lot of hard work. With his health lowered to 0, he delayed death in a special way and killed several opponents stronger than himself.

Even so, the only way to get a unique-level title was to get a higher Epic rating from the beginning this time, so it was a huge harvest indeed.

'Are you really a jerk?'

I was really excited to see if the character was really created this time, something I had never done in my long game life.

At that moment, a quest window appeared in front of Lokan. Some of the quests were the first quests that even Lokan, who knew everything, saw them for the first time.

'This '

[Finding the traces of the storm][Quest]

Found the traces of the storm that wrathed the world long ago. Find the rest of the trail and continue the upkeep of the frenzy.

- Completion of advanced training center. (completion)

'Amazing, Great.'

But I knew. How great is this quest that doesn't even have a reward.

Isn't the first requirement to complete the advanced training center?

I don't know if it is recognized as a completion by raising all stats to the limit like Lokan, or whether just entering and exiting is recognized, but it was clear that the rewards would be huge if the only condition for completing the first was a quest that could obtain an epic-grade title.

Knuckle!

Then there was a sound that broke the atmosphere. The empty stomach is hitting the bottom.

‘Oh, it was an O-ring.’

I opened my inventory, but it was empty. He ate all the bread he had bought with all the money he had, and was in a state of emptiness with no equipment, but Lokan was not worried.

Because I reached level 10.

As far as he knew, there would be no such thing as being hungry.

“I want to go on an adventure into a wider world.”

Moments later, Lokan spoke the promised sentence in front of the mayor of Pocket City.

They don't even hear about it before level 10, but those who have achieved level 10 can escape the pocket city through the mayor.

“If it were you, it would be fine. Then please take care of yourself.”

It's actually the first time they've seen it, but perhaps because it's reputation is [Friendly], the mayor looked at Rokhan with trustworthy eyes.

And with those words, control of the body disappeared just like in the tutorial. Instead, an image flashed before his eyes.

It was a video of his character getting on a village merchant's wagon and heading somewhere.

With this, we said goodbye to Pocket City, and it was the beginning of the main game.
