Chapter 46

Finally out.

Since the free bulletin board and strategy bulletin board are free, the number of views is incomparable to that of the information bulletin board or paid videos.

Currently, just by roughly looking, the number of views that are particularly high on the information bulletin board reached about 5 million, and even if you calculate it at 5 won per view, the amount is a whopping 25 million won.

Of course, it was the number of views accumulated over several months, but it was certainly not a small amount.

In addition, if this system is activated, the possibility of good information being released for free increases. Interesting articles will pour out, and the number of users who want to read the posts will increase accordingly.

Then, it was not impossible to exceed 10 million views.

If you achieve 10 million?

Since Illusion will pay a cumulative 50 million won, that would also be a considerable side income.

Should I upload something from time to time?

What kind of articles are popular?

I checked a few posts with particularly high views.

Hmm.

And also those with low views.

Definitely different.

Articles with high views had characteristics.

Information about Illusion, or casual talks.

The contents were all different, but they were all easy to read.

Before I knew it, I found myself reading to the end, and after reading to the end, I would smirk or exclaim in admiration.

It was then.

Another announcement was posted on the website.

[The website service will be terminated in 5 minutes.]

[The maintenance time is…….]

25 minutes had already passed.

Muhyuk came out of the website and entered the Capsule.

He tried to connect to Illusion.

[Death penalty is not over.]

[3 minutes 27 seconds remaining.]

He stared blankly at the decreasing time.

[3 minutes 24 seconds.]

[3 minutes 23 seconds.]

[3 minutes 22 seconds.]

It was really slow.

Wow…….

It was driving me crazy.

Could the time of waiting be so slow?

It flowed so quickly when I was focused on something, but now it felt like it had stopped altogether.

Eventually, Muhyuk couldn’t stand it and came out of the Capsule, wandering around the room for no reason to pass the time.

He drank a glass of water and went to the bathroom to urinate.

And when I connected again.

[Death penalty is not over.]

[0 minutes 11 seconds remaining.]

There were still 10 seconds left.

Still, it’s a relief.

Because 10 seconds passed faster than I thought.

[Welcome to Illusion.]

As soon as I logged into the game, I looked around.

The Guardian Guild wouldn’t find me, would they?

Just in case, I put all the items except the sword in my inventory.

After equipping a few shabby armors I had, I headed to the promised place.

Hamil Empire Square.

I arrived there, but Sungminwoo was not yet visible. Muhyuk looked at the items he had put in his inventory one by one.

Defense is definitely lacking.

In any case, Muhyuk’s stats are focused on strength, agility, and stamina. Among them, it is especially focused on strength.

However, because the strength was too high, agility and stamina were relatively low. It was a bit of a difficult problem for someone who had to deal directly with monsters.

Hmm, should I focus on the bow from now on?

Whether I swing a sword or shoot an arrow, the damage is similar anyway.

And it’s safer.

I looked at the Reinforced Skeleton again.

The defense is much better than Muhyuk’s, and the HP is also high. It was enough to block the monster’s attacks at the front.

And I shoot arrows from behind?

It was earlier than the original plan, but it wasn’t bad.

I could focus more on commanding.

Command and ranged attack.

The time will surely come when I have to focus on both.

I was going to postpone it because the sword’s options were so good, but my thoughts changed as I got involved with the Guardian Guild.

Maybe I’ll run into those guys again.

Before long, they might find out my identity.

If I have to fight then?

After all, the best thing to do is to shoot arrows from behind with the Skeleton in front. The moment I step forward, I will be surrounded by them and unable to avoid death.

Muhyuk turned on the auction system.

I should change my items this time.

I excluded only what I needed.

[Heavy Boots]

Never lose your balance in any situation.

Defense 2

Agility+1

Usage Restriction: Agility 15

Durability 73/75

The defense is low, but since I’m shooting arrows from afar, I don’t have to worry too much.

Rather, the option of not losing balance is important, so I decided to continue using it.

[Quick Necklace]

Movement Speed+2%

Attack Speed+2%

Usage Restriction: Agility 15

Durability 70/85

[Groian’s Ring (Growth)]

Wisdom+7

Knowledge+3

MP(100)

MP Recovery Rate+20

Durability 100/100

Usage Restriction: Those who have passed ‘Groian’s Test’

[Black Gilding Ring]

Reaction Speed ​​Increased by 0.5 Percent

Durability 50/50

Usage Restriction: Strength 10, Stamina 10

[Battle Gloves]

Attack Power 10

Strength+2

Durability 70/70

Usage Restriction: Strength 20

[Ring of Wisdom]

Wisdom (2) Increase

MP Recovery Rate (10) Increase

I have to use all of this.

There were only 3 rings.

I can use up to 10 anyway.

Other items…….

There was nothing I particularly needed.

Let’s sell everything.

I immediately designated most of the items I had been using, such as helmets, armor, and belts, for immediate sale.

Since they weren’t expensive anyway, I listed them a little cheaper than the market price. Of course, I reserved items that I was reluctant to list for immediate sale.

Then there were only two left.

Skull Staff and Soul-infused Longsword.

What should I do with the Skull Staff?

Later, when I can summon a Mage, I can hand it over to the Mage.

But…….

Rather than that, it was more profitable to sell the Skull Staff and buy two staves with similar magic damage with the money.

Yes, let’s sell it.

The method is auction.

The time is 48 hours.

The starting price is 100 Gold.

I just have to wait for this.

The problem was the Soul-infused Longsword. It was too good to sell through the auction system.

After checking the time, Muhyuk judged that there was still time left until the appointment time, and hurriedly went to a nearby auction house.

“Welcome.”

“I want to entrust it to a public auction.”

At that, the eyes of the guide NPC changed.

“Can I check the item?”

“Here.”

I handed over the Soul-infused Longsword.

“……!”

The NPC’s expression changed.

“This way…….”

I followed him to the 7th floor.

As a result of meeting and talking with the person in charge here, it was concluded that it was sufficient to go to a public auction.

No, it was more than enough.

“The public auction will be held in 3 days.”

“What time is it?”

“It’s 5 p.m.”

“Then I’ll see you then.”

“Okay. You must entrust the item now. Of course, I will write a merchant’s contract.”

“Okay.”

Merchant’s contract.

This contract, which is made in the temple, is a contract watched over by the god of merchants, and you will lose your life if you break it.

It was truly a 100 percent reliable contract.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes.”

I went to the temple with him and wrote a merchant’s contract.

After entrusting the Soul-infused Longsword to him, I headed back to the square and decided to get an MP recovery rate item that I had been thinking about.

Let’s see.

I looked through the auction house again.

Not bad. This and.

I focused on buying rings that increase MP recovery rate.

This, this too…….

I didn’t spare any money on buying items.

MP recovery rate was essential.

Thanks to that, the minute recovery rate of MP increased rapidly.

Okay, that’s enough.

When I turned off the auction system, I saw a user waving his hand in the distance.

“Here!”

It was Sungminwoo.

As I approached with a smile, he tilted his head.

“Hey, you…….”

“Why?”

“Why are your items like that?”

“Ah, I just put everything I was using up for auction.”

“Huh? Why?”

“I’m going to buy a new one.”

“Ah, really? Then what about hunting?”

“Um, just a moment.”

I opened the auction system again.

I made it so that only bows were listed through detailed search.

I currently have about 2,300 Gold.

The best one.

Then one bow caught my eye.

[Pegasus Short Bow]

Attack Power 81

Strength+2

Additional Damage+5

Durability 120/120

Usage Restriction: Strength 40, Stamina 25

[Immediate Sale Price: 150 Gold]

The options were really excellent.

Of course, bows have higher damage than swords in the first place. 81 is only about 60 in terms of swords.

Nevertheless, the other options were so excellent that there seemed to be no problem using it up to at least the mid-50s level.

If you push it a little, you could use it enough up to level 60.

One thing that bothered me was the usage restriction, which was 25 for stamina and a whopping 40 for strength.

It was a stat that even users in their mid-50s level would find difficult to handle.

If you found a few hidden pieces and raised your stats, you could somehow handle it, but those users would use better weapons in the first place.

So even if you listed it for 150 Gold, it wouldn’t sell.

But not for Muhyuk. Even though he took off the armor with 1 strength and the long sword with 3 strength, he was able to handle the usage restriction.

Fortunately, it’s exactly 40.

The consideration was short.

[Would you like to purchase?]

[Yes/No]

When I pressed yes, the Gold was deducted and the short bow entered the inventory.

As soon as I turned off the auction system and took it out, Sungminwoo approached with shining eyes.

“Oh, what, did you just buy it?”

“Yeah.”

“Let’s see!”

“If you want.”

As Muhyuk smiled and held out the short bow, Sungminwoo reached out.

[‘StrongFist’ wants to check the performance of the short bow. Would you like to allow it?]

[Yes/No]

With permission, his exclamation burst out.

“Huh, huh……!”

He was surprised by the damage from the start.

“This, crazy!”

Even the options.

“You…… can you even use this?”

Finally, even the usage restriction.

“Yeah, barely.”

“Heo, your stats are completely monstrous?”

“You know.”

“Ah, I know. Then.”

It must be the effect of two Dungeons and the title.

Sungminwoo accepted it that way and moved on.

“But how much is this?”

“150 Gold.”

“Heo……. That’s awesome.”

“Not bad, right? Let’s hunt first.”

“Ah, yeah. But is it okay if you only have a weapon?”

“It’s enough.”

“Hmm, I can’t be a tanker either.”

“Ah…….”

I realized it then.

This guy doesn’t know my job.

It was natural since I hadn’t told him. I had forgotten that fact. He probably thinks I’m an archer right now.

But if I reveal that I’m a Necromancer?

He will bombard me with various questions.

But I thought it was okay with Sungminwoo.

Because he tends to keep his mouth shut.

I trusted him that much.

“I can do it.”

“Huh? How can you?”

“I’m not an archer.”

“Um? Then?”

Muhyuk was about to speak but closed his mouth again.

It was because there were many users around.

“Let’s go first.”

“Uh, uh.”

I led Sungminwoo to the west gate.

I left the hunting ground and went a little deeper.

There were users here and there, but it was a distance where they wouldn’t be heard if I lowered my voice.

“I’m a Necromancer.”

“Huh? What did you say?”

“My job is Necromancer.”

Then I summoned the Skeletons.

Kilik, kiririk.

The Reinforced Skeleton, Sword Bone, and Bow Bone that appeared.

Sungminwoo’s mouth dropped open.

“Wh, what the hell!”

He looked at Muhyuk with a shocked expression.

“Are you crazy? What kind of stats did a Necromancer raise like that?”

“Lower your voice first.”

“Is that important now!”

“It’s important.”

“…….”

“Keep what I say a secret.”

“That’s obvious.”

Muhyuk smiled softly.

“Yeah, actually, I found out a hidden piece of information.”

“Hidden information?”

“Yeah, summons are affected by stats. To be more precise, should I say that summons have about 20 percent of my stats?”

“What……?”

“You said you were a Spirit Fighter, right?”

“U, uh.”

“It’s a fact that applies to spirits too.”
