Chapter 180
Ha-jin and Kim Bong-Goo, who had been absorbed in the gold and jewels, also came over to look at the treasure chest.
"Brother... did this come out of the box?"
"Yes."
The items looked extraordinary at first glance.
Jeong-hoon first took out a ring.
===
[Ring of the Dark Guardian]
- Type: Ring
- Grade: Legendary
- Special Ability (1): Grants the wearer a temporary 20% increase in attack power.
- Special Ability (2): Increases the damage of all dark attribute skills by 10%.
- Special Ability (3): Increases the wearer's curse debuff resistance by 50%.
- Special Ability (4): Restores 5% of health and mana for each enemy killed.
===
"Ha-jin, you take this."
"M-me...?"
"Yeah. We went through a lot together, so I should give you something this good."
The first ruler of the City of Archer was said to have wielded dark attribute powers.
That's why they used this Legendary grade ring very effectively.
Although Ha-jin was a warrior, this ring would be a great help to him as he walked the path of the Dark Lord.
"Wow... thank you so much."
Ha-jin accepted the ring with a touched expression.
A Legendary grade ring, no less.
In terms of real-world value, it was said to be priceless.
As they say, it's important to choose your friends wisely.
"Yeah. I'll be counting on you in the future too."
"Call me anytime you need help! I'll come running no matter what!"
"Make sure you keep that promise."
Next was his mother's turn.
This time, Jeong-hoon took out an item called the 'Eagle Eye Monocle.'
===
[Eagle Eye Monocle]
- Type: Monocle
- Grade: Legendary
- Special Ability (1): Increases accuracy by 20%.
- Special Ability (2): Allows the wearer to see the enemy's weak points and increases critical hit damage by 20%.
- Special Ability (3): Increases maximum range by 20% and allows for clear vision even in dark places.
- Special Ability (4): Detects hidden enemies (maximum range 150m).
===
Although his mother had Tracking Shot, it was a skill that could only track enemies within 100 meters after hitting them.
On the other hand, this monocle was a cheat item that allowed the wearer to identify enemies within 150 meters just by equipping it.
It was a perfect item for his mother, the gunner.
"Mom, take this."
"Oh my... this is so much better than anything I have."
"Right?"
"Are you sure I can have this?"
"Of course."
His mother had no expectations.
No, wait.
There was one thing.
For her to live a long and healthy life.
"Brother, what about me?"
Kim Bong-Goo held out his hands with sparkling eyes.
"Wait a minute."
Jeong-hoon chuckled and took out a piece of equipment from the treasure chest.
===
[Shadow Cloak]
- Type: Cloak
- Grade: Unique
- Evasion: 20%
- Physical Damage Reduction: 5%
- Magic Damage Reduction: 5%
- Remaining Durability: 100%
- Special Ability (1): [Passive: Perfect Stealth] Available
- Special Ability (2): Increases movement speed by 20% while stealthed.
- Special Ability (3): Increases the damage of the first attack by 50% while stealthed.
===
It was an item with good stats, but unfortunately, its grade was only Unique.
"It's not Legendary...?"
Kim Bong-Goo's face was filled with disappointment as he checked the item.
He had been expecting a Legendary, but it turned out to be a Unique.
Jeong-hoon looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
"I can upgrade this to Legendary. If you don't want it, just say so."
He pretended to put the cloak back into his inventory as if to say he didn't care.
Kim Bong-Goo hurriedly waved his hands.
"Absolutely not! It's a great item. I was just wondering why it wasn't Legendary!"
"Really? Then use it well. If you work hard, I'll upgrade it to Legendary later."
"Really?!"
"Have you ever seen me lie?"
"Brother! I'll follow any order from now on!"
"Even if I tell you to die?"
"Uh... that's a bit..."
Jeong-hoon chuckled and took the cloak out of his inventory, handing it to him.
Kim Bong-Goo, who received the cloak, put it on with a touched expression.
"Wow! It looks awesome!"
But to Jeong-hoon, it didn't look good at all.
'The stats are good, but it's definitely not fashionable.'
The cloak was long enough to reach his ankles, and the collar was thick, making it look like Dracula's cloak.
Jeong-hoon looked away from Kim Bong-Goo and put his hand in his pocket.
There were two items left.
===
[Grip of the Ruler]
- Type: Gloves
- Grade: Legendary
- Defense: ? (Adjusted according to the wearer's level)
- Evasion: ? (Adjusted according to the wearer's level)
- Physical Damage Reduction: 10%
- Magic Damage Reduction: 10%
- Remaining Durability: 100%
- Special Ability (1): Increases all stats by 10% when equipped.
- Special Ability (2): Increases the attack power of all weapons by 10%.
- Special Ability (3): Increases the proficiency of all weapons by 10%.
- Special Ability (4): [Active: Ruler's Grip] Available
===
'I'll take this one.'
A Legendary grade glove.
Just by wearing it, all stats would increase by 10%, and weapon attack power would also receive a 10% boost.
And there was also the active skill, Ruler's Grip.
[Ruler's Grip]
- Type: Active
- Grade: Legendary
- Pulls the desired enemy towards you.
- Reduces the defense of the enemy touched by 10%.
It was a perfect skill for Jeong-hoon, who enjoyed using martial arts.
'Then what about the last one?'
Jeong-hoon took out the remaining item from his pocket.
[Highest Grade Experience Elixir]
- Type: Elixir
- Grade: Legendary
- Grants a large amount of experience when consumed.
It was an experience elixir.
And it was the highest grade.
A very precious elixir that could drastically increase one's level with just one sip.
"Oh my... it's two whole grades higher than the ones I've had before."
"Wow... a Legendary grade elixir?"
"How much will our levels increase if we drink this?"
His mother, Ha-jin, and Kim Bong-Goo's eyes widened at the appearance of the elixir.
There were a total of four elixirs.
Just the right number for the people present.
Jeong-hoon intended to share the elixirs with everyone.
"Jeong-hoon, you can have them all."
His mother quickly refused, sensing Jeong-hoon's thoughts.
She knew how precious the elixirs were and couldn't accept them so easily.
"It's okay, please take it."
But faced with Jeong-hoon's firm attitude, his mother eventually accepted the elixir.
"I'll drink it gratefully."
"Yes."
He then handed the next elixir to Ha-jin.
"Is it okay for me to take this...?"
Ha-jin accepted the elixir with trembling hands.
"Yes. If I take them all myself, I'll have to stream alone again."
"...My friend! I love you!"
"Don't get too clingy, it's gross."
"Haha, okay!"
Finally, it was Kim Bong-Goo's turn.
Kim Bong-Goo's eyes were filled with anticipation even before receiving the elixir.
"Now, show me your talent."
"Vroom vroom! I'm your one and only steed, brother! Please fill up this Bong-Goo truck with gas!"
"The maintenance costs are quite high, aren't they?"
"I apologize for consuming so much gas!"
Kim Bong-Goo shouted loudly, maintaining his attention posture.
"Okay. You pass."
Jeong-hoon readily bestowed the elixir upon him.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!"
Kim Bong-Goo's grin stretched from ear to ear as he received the elixir.
"Then can I take all this gold and treasure?"
"Of course! Take it all."
"I always thought you should have it, brother!"
All the gold and treasure went into Jeong-hoon's possession.
He planned to exchange one-third of it for cash to give to his mother and use the remaining two-thirds for future content.
* * *
"What?! It's already over?"
Altair asked in disbelief.
"Yes! The foreigners have just received the surrender of the Rogue' City!"
The informant nodded with a bright face.
"How could this be..."
That damn Rogue' City was defeated without a fight.
The foreigners reportedly overwhelmed the residents with brute force, without any tactics.
Even Markus was instantly beheaded without putting up any resistance...
'Jeong-hoon... what on earth did you do?'
What did he do to make the foreigners go so crazy?
Not long after, the foreigners flocked to the sanctuary of the City of Archer.
"I brought the head here!"
"No! I'm the one who beheaded him!"
"Bullshit! Don't be fooled! The one holding the head didn't kill him!"
What was going on?
Altair gaped at the swarming foreigners.
"Slowly! Speak slowly!"
But the users, as if they couldn't hear Altair's words, were busy claiming that they were the ones who beheaded Markus.
* * *
Jeong-hoon returned to the sanctuary of the City of Archer.
However, the sanctuary was overflowing with users, making it impossible to enter.
"Wow... I don't think we can complete the quest."
"I agree."
Ha-jin and Kim Bong-Goo clicked their tongues.
"It's okay. I'm going to wait until all those users leave before completing the quest."
Jeong-hoon stood at the entrance of the sanctuary, observing the users.
He wanted to see how the gold rewards for the event would be distributed.
"But how are they going to give out the gold? Don't they have to reveal their faces?"
If he revealed his face, many eyes would inevitably follow him as he continued to enjoy the game.
But Jeong-hoon nodded nonchalantly.
"It doesn't matter."
Jeong-hoon handed 200,000 gold directly to Altair and asked him to distribute it to the top 3 contributors.
So when they completed the quest, they would receive gold according to their ranking.
"Oh... the NPC is very kind."
"He has to be."
Jeong-hoon had saved Altair's life, identified the spy, and even intervened in the war to ensure their victory.
So such a request was nothing.
"Hmm, we won't get any, will we?"
100,000 gold.
A whopping 1 billion won.
Ha-jin asked with a hint of expectation.
"Nope. Zero chance, so don't get your hopes up."
Jeong-hoon dashed his hopes instantly.
The event was about suppressing the Rogue' City and beheading Markus.
Although Ha-jin, Kim Bong-Goo, and his mother had wiped out the shadows, their contribution would be significantly lower than other users.
* * *
"Huh? Contribution 0.23%?"
The user who handed over the head was filled with confusion.
"Is the reward insufficient...?"
"No... that's not it."
Upon receiving the reward, his level increased by 1, and he also received a Unique grade item.
But that wasn't the reward he wanted.
Contribution.
He needed contribution points to receive the 100,000 gold.
But the contribution shown next to him was only a measly 0.23%.
It was the same for other users.
Everyone's contribution was in decimals.
"Wow... damn, they're ranking us based on these contribution points."
"Mine is 0.08%... is this even real?"
"I have 0.009%."
"Quiet, everyone. Those who didn't even fight have zero."
The users received their rewards one by one and compared their contribution points.
After a long while, when most of the users had completed the quest, Altair shouted to them.
"Now! We will rank you according to your contribution points!"
The users tilted their heads at his announcement.
"Ranking?"
"Wasn't Honey supposed to calculate the rankings?"
"Did they bribe the NPC or something?"
"Wow... they really did a good job making it suspenseful."
"I admit, HoneyTube's event planning is top-notch."
The users realized that the NPC had been commissioned by HoneyTube.
At the same time, they waited for the rankings to be calculated with nervous anticipation.
The top 3, who would receive the gold, would be determined based on Altair's ranking.
"Now! I will announce the 3rd place first!"
Altair placed a pouch containing 30,000 gold in front of him.
3rd place would receive 30,000 gold.
The users clasped their hands and prayed.
It was a more nerve-wracking moment than ever before.
