The Genius Blacksmith's Game
Dragon Exploration. (4)
Sejin checked how many keywords related to Hyunsu are currently trending through the supercomputer Ares.
[Increased by 53,000 as of the end of the Dragon Expedition. Most are positive regarding Hyunsu.]
Charararararak-
The post with the most likes in the community.
The article with the highest number of views in the newspaper.
The most shared posts on Starstagram were listed in front of Sejin.
– It is the Hyunsu hack. I, the developer, certify it with certainty.
'nucleus?'
Sejin was flustered.
However, as I read deeper, it turned out to be nothing more than a trolling attempt.
It was a post praising Hyunsu for his skill, not his nuclear weapon.
newspaper.
Master Hyun-soo becomes a beacon of light for the Dragon of Despair Expedition.
– How far does the praise for Master Hyun-soo go?
– U.S. President Benjamin is reported to have watched the Varga expedition with key figures at the White House.
– Achieved peak viewership ratings of over 41% at one point.
– Netizens acknowledge that he fully proved his status as the strongest.
Sejin, who was looking at him, asked.
What about Varga?
[Currently, there are 36,000 keywords for Dragoon Varga. Opinions are still divided on whether or not the raid will be possible.]
Sejin was surprised.
Hyunsu's keyword surpassed Varga's keyword.
Clearly, this event quest is intended to let the whole world see Varga.
Therefore, it is only natural that Varga should have more keywords, but Hyunsu easily crushed him.
Of course, in just two hours, keywords about Varga will take over the whole world again.
But now… … .
Is it Hyunsu's world?
For just a few hours, the whole world was going wild for Hyun-soo.
The same goes for Purum Co., Ltd.
Because the members of each team, who were watching monitors here and there, were staring blankly at Hyunsu.
at that time.
“CEO, the supercomputer Ares has added rewards for this quest.”
Sejin looked at Ares, the supercomputer he had been talking to just moments ago.
Ares is connected to over tens of thousands of electronic devices.
Let's check.
The notification received by user Hyunsu was written on the tablet PC.
[You have achieved the most remarkable result among the expedition members.]
[It is an overwhelming achievement that other expedition members cannot even dream of.]
[The reward has been changed to grant 1.3% to all stats.]
The dozens of stats Hyunsu had previously received were maintained, while all his stats were increased.
The Dragon Expedition lasted exactly 1 minute and 23 seconds.
It is an amazing reward considering the amount of time involved.
[The title Dragon Slayer increases by one rank.]
“Dragon Slayer?”
Isn't that the name of the sword Hyun-soo made?
It is also a title.
"Is it also a title?"
“Yes, do you remember when Hyun-su hunted the Bone Dragon in the past?”
Every one remembers.
At the time, Purum Co., Ltd. made a fatal mistake.
Hyunsu was made to obtain the Saint's Sword, which can recover HP and MP infinitely.
Of course, the Saint's Sword was recovered, but Hyun-su used that Saint's Sword to hunt the… … that was absolutely impossible to hunt at the time… … .
It was possible to hunt a Bone Dragon that was no different from the current Dragon Varga class.
“The title earned for hunting that Bone Dragon back then is Dragon Slayer. I suspect that Hyun-soo was inspired by that when he created the sword 'Dragon Slayer'.”
Oh…?
Sejin took an interest.
“What kind of effect did it have?”
It triggers the Fear status effect on dragons or dragons with a level lower than or similar to Hyunsu's, but since such creatures are rare, it is useless. What is noteworthy is that Attack and Defense increase by 18% against dragons or dragon-related targets, and there is a 10% chance that Attack and Cutting Power increase by 150% against dragons or dragon-related targets.
“……?”
It is a great effect, but also not.
“Since there aren’t many dragons to begin with, it won’t be very effective, but it suits Hyun-su perfectly right now…… That title has grown a step further…….”
Team Leader Kim hurriedly showed off an even more outstanding Dragon Slayer.
(Dragon Slayer.)
Unique Title
Grade: SS
Special Ability:
· Increases all stats by 1.5%.
· Depending on the situation, the Fear status effect can be triggered even against dragons or dragons with a higher level than you.
· Increases all Attack and Defense by 21% against Dragons or all beings related to Dragons.
· 25% chance to increase Cutting Power and Attack Power by 210% against Dragons or all Dragon-related beings.
· When a dragon appears or a named monster related to it appears, you will find out before anyone else and also learn its approximate location.
“……You’ve become much better. To think you can inflict status ailments on a dragon even if its level is higher than yours? And the power that used to activate at 10% and drastically increase attack and cutting power has been buffed up to 25%?”
Today, Hyunsu couldn't even reduce Varga's HP by 10% at best.
However, the Hyunsu of five minutes ago and the Hyunsu of today are completely different.
'Just a little bit at a time… …'
Hyunsu was getting closer to Barga.
***
Among those who watched the broadcast, there were also a great many users from the Kingdom of Hyun.
Before long, the country of Hyun had grown large enough to rank among the top five in population, even including the Parion Empire and countless kingdoms.
There were just as many users.
The users of the Kingdom of Hyun were moved.
I don't regret coming to Hyun's country.
Our Hyunsu is the best.
I can really feel a sense of patriotism.
After the broadcast ended, users of the Kingdom of the Strings recorded the highest number of concurrent users.
More than ever before, the light of login filled the royal castle of the country of Hyun simultaneously.
Those who logged in could see the users who had already arrived.
They were waving handheld flags adorned with the hammer and anvil, the emblem of the nation of Hyun.
“Wowwwwww!”
“Hyunsu, hurray!”
“Long live my idol!”
Although.
This expedition team was not a collection of high-rankers.
However, it made known the status of the country of Hyun to the whole world.
Even the number of immigrants from Hyun's country was rapidly increasing, and a significant number of users from other countries had come to support Hyun-su.
He appeared soon.
Hyunsu, who stood a whopping 184cm tall and was armed with a Hyunmu resembling a turtle, had a Twin Dragon Sword strapped to his back.
The black cloak of Halphas worn on the back and the splendid artifacts captivated the public.
The scattering of pollen and the shouts that made the world roar echoed throughout the entire country of the strings.
The return of the king and the return of the hero delighted the users of the Kingdom of Hyun.
Most of them went wild looking at their idol, Hyun-su, and harbored a huge desire to become like him.
Hyunsu is my dream.
To think I succeeded in attacking a dragon all by myself…
Everyone looks at his retreating figure with eyes of admiration.
Some users followed them, cheering as if at a fan meeting.
However, Hyunsu's current condition was actually not good.
A slight convulsion was occurring in his body, and his fingertips were trembling violently.
The battle with Bargawa was a tremendous burden for Hyunsu as well.
also.
I've become stronger… … .
It's been a few years since I last saw you…
Just as Hyunsu had grown, Varga had also become stronger.
I knew that in order to maintain balance, Ares itself requires NPCs and monsters to grow as much as the users do.
But I didn't know it would be this bad.
Hyunsu was confident.
It is the confidence that if I meet Varga again, I will overwhelm him unlike in the past.
But it wasn't at all.
The guy who was clearly in the 800s in the past appeared as ???, and it is estimated that his level has increased significantly since then.
Every cell in my body tensed up and contracted, and the moment I returned after the battle, the release of tension rather than the thought that I had dealt a blow to him overwhelmed me with a tremendous sense of pressure.
Nevertheless… … .
Hyunsu had to come here.
[Resell: Hyunsu, the users came to see you. You little brat.]
[Nell: The number of concurrent users in the Land of the Black Spirit has reached its highest level. The people of the Land of the Black Spirit are flocking to see Hyun-soo.]
Because I was the one who had to come even in such a situation…
However, in the end, Hyun-su barely managed to catch his breath as he walked, but he hit his limit.
He hurried to a place where no one could see him and collapsed.
“Ugh!”
Hyunsu emptied out everything that was inside him.
The place Hyunsu entered was a blacksmith's shop.
It was a place where dozens of blacksmiths were taught by a senior blacksmith.
What a disaster.
Hyunsu's face turned even whiter.
The sight of myself staggering, my face turning pale and cold sweat pouring down.
He tries to stand up again, but fails and collapses.
[Your stamina has been depleted due to exerting a high level of concentration.]
The problem is characters that are too much like humans.
If this story spreads, many people will be disappointed.
Where did Hyun-su go?
“Your Highness Hyun-su!”
"But you definitely went here?"
“Long live Prince Hyeonsu!”
The voice calling Hyun-su was still heard, and his gaze turned outside.
Amidst such commotion… … .
Five users located near the blacksmith were watching Hyunsu.
This is a big problem… … .
The users clearly made eye contact with Hyunsu.
They were flustered when their eyes met.
Hyunsu, vomiting and staggering, unable to even breathe properly, looked no different from a drowned rat.
Users were taken aback by his pale appearance.
However, the image of us fighting still flashes through my mind.
Hyun-su became a light and illuminated the world when a thousand users were in despair.
Then, a user said
“Hyunsu, are you there?”
“……There are only blacksmiths here?”
"Oh my, where did he go?"
I'm telling you, it's obvious they ran off to Hwajo.
Five users send other users back.
They made eye contact with Hyunsu and moved on.
“Where on earth did you go?”
“Hyunsunii!”
“Ah, Hyun-su, come out here, over here!”
They wrap Hyunsu in their own way.
Soon, a blacksmith approached and covered Hyunsu with a huge cloth.
It’s a child I’ve never seen before.
“…….”
There was no way they didn't know who Hyun-soo was.
Whenever he had time, Hyunsu came to the blacksmith's shop and taught them.
In fact, they were also familiar with Hyunsu.
“He’s a very young and handsome young man.”
“Please rest. We are busy with our own work.…….”
All the blacksmiths at the place pretended not to know Hyunsu.
only…….
Bang!
Taaang!
They greeted the king in their own way.
Showing his production method that he taught.
Hiding inside the tent, Hyunsu found peace and stability.
Ancient Dragon
Bahala must obtain three things from the old dragon and give them to Hyunsu.
The dragon's heart, the Dragon Heart Core.
Dragon's Cold Blood (龍血銀).
Finally, it is Myeolryonggang.
Bahala believed that if he gathered just these three materials, he could make a perfect Dragon Slayer Sword.
He was convinced that if it was the Hyunsu he knew, he would have sufficiently gained the dragon's scales.
However.
“The dragon scale? If it falls into human hands, it vanishes without a trace.”
The words of the wisest dragon to live for thousands of years.
[The Sword God's eyes see through the truth.]
[It is the truth.]
At those words, Bahala despaired.
