    Episode 148

    To enter the next village in the Marchen Kingdom you must use the portal located in the north.

    And the people guarding the portal were Marchen royal knights.

    They were all people who had become friends over drinks at the banquet.

    “Oh aren’t you a hero?”

    ===

    [NPC Information]

    -Nickname: Ferner

    -Level: 175

    – Occupation: Knight of Marchen Kingdom

    ===

    Perner recognized Jeong Hoon and welcomed him warmly.

    “Are you feeling okay?”

    “Haha I thought I was going to die at the time but I’m fine now!”

    “thank god.”

    “Are you leaving now?”

    “yes.”

    As Jeong-Hoon exchanged a few words with Perner all eyes suddenly turned in this direction.

    “huh? hero?”

    “NPC talks to you first pretending to be friendly?”

    “There are cases like that.”

    The waiting users were looking at Jeong Hoon with curious eyes.

    ‘Stop! ‘Only those who qualify will be able to pass so get in line!’

    It was surprising because it was clearly an NPC who gave instructions to them in a harsh voice.

    Perner recognized the situation cleared his throat and returned to his seat.

    “…How did you become friends with the NPC?”

    A user in front of Jeonghoon asked with curious eyes.

    He was a level 205 archer who had completed the 3rd round.

    “You can proceed with the Marchen Castle quest.”

    “Wangseong…?”

    “yes.”

    There’s a quest in the castle?

    I visited the Kingdom of Marchen after hearing that the castle which was previously impossible to enter had recently been opened.

    However there were no NPCs anywhere in the castle that gave quests.

    “next!”

    I wondered what the hell he was talking about but before I knew it it was my turn.

    The archer had no choice but to go through the portal.

    Next it was Jeonghoon’s turn.

    “Where are you going?”

    “This is Rheas.”

    “okay. I wish you luck.”

    “thank you.”

    Perner showed courtesy as a knight.

    Jeonghoon received his greeting and went through the portal.

    * * *

    That time.

    Hajin and Kim Bonggu were busy subduing the Bone Lord Wyvern.

    Lv.220 Bone Lord Wyvern.

    However unlike regular bosses since it was a raid boss its vitality was seriously high.

    It took at least one day to subdue it once.

    Actually this is also short.

    There were many punitive forces who had not slept for several days and failed in their attempts at subjugation.

    “…Bonggu let’s take a break and then do it.”

    “yes….”

    As the subjugation progressed Ha-jin began to talk to Kim Bong-gu.

    On the other hand Kim Bong-gu was still polite to Ha-jin.

    Their faces were tired.

    This is because I defeated the Lord Wyvern one after another without stopping.

    In this way we succeeded in raising each other’s levels one by one.

    The problem is when do I reach level 201 and do the 3rd job change?

    “That guy Hoon… How on earth did he raise his level to 201 so quickly?”

    “Brother Jeonghoon is a monster. monster….”

    “I agree.”

    “Whew but that doesn’t mean we can’t go in alone does it?”

    The number of elixirs you can obtain when hunting one Bone Lord Wyvern is fixed to 5.

    No matter how many people there were they did not drop more than that.

    As a result elixirs were taken in the order of the contribution of the subjugation team but from 6th place onwards one had to be satisfied with only the experience of subjugating the Lord Wyvern.

    “Shall we just do it together?”

    “…Wouldn’t we have to stay up all night for at least three days?”

    “I’m going to turn. Does it make sense to ask us to do the same thing? How on earth did that guy Hoon catch this?”

    It was amazing to see in the honey tube video but after defeating the Lord Wyvern I saw in person Jeonghoon was just at another level.

    “…That’s what I meant.”

    Kim Bong-gu sighed deeply.

    Just because you can do it doesn’t mean others can do it too.

    “Wow I can’t say no to that.”

    There is a saying that New World begins at level 201.

    Leveling is so difficult why start at level 201?

    This is because explosive growth can occur depending on how you set your direction from then on.

    Wouldn’t Jung Hoon be able to achieve that explosive growth?

    That’s why you need to level up even faster and follow in Jeonghoon’s footsteps.

    ‘If we work together with Hoon we will be able to achieve explosive growth.’

    This is not the time to rest like this.

    Hajin stood up.

    “Where are you going?”

    “I want to at least hunt wyverns while the punitive force is rescued.”

    “Wyvern hunting…?”

    Kim Bong-gu’s complexion turned pale.

    How long has it been since the defeat of Lord Wyvern ended?

    Now just looking at the wyvern makes me want to puke.

    “okay. “If you reduce your rest time and focus on hunting you’ll level up a little faster.”

    Either way Hajin dragged Kim Bong-gu to subdue the wyvern.

    ‘Ah… this person wasn’t normal either.’

    For a moment she thought Hajin was a refuge but she felt resentful of herself.

    * * *

    Free City of Rheas.

    Rheas was a city with a slightly different concept from the cities of the Middle Ages.

    Instead of having a lord each territory was ruled by a representative of an occupation and free people living in the city had to pay taxes at regular intervals.

    “Reasura….”

    Also the center of Rheas was called the ‘City of Peace’ so the rulers made an agreement and did not belong to any place.

    The central area was a city with developed commerce and industry and it was no exaggeration to say that merchants actually held real power.

    Users and NPCs were walking around on that street.

    “Where are you going?”

    “I am the city of archers. you?”

    “I am a thief.”

    In this way users who arrive at Reas receive the necessary items from the center and head to the city of each occupation.

    This is because you can receive quests and experience hunting grounds necessary to grow from level 201 to level 250.

    [If you’re here please restore me first!]

    Mukho continued to tease Jeonghun as if he had been waiting for this moment.

    “I understand calm down.”

    A light stone obtained from Birsin.

    However there are conditions to use the stone.

    ‘If you want to place a request with a blacksmith who can touch stones you need to build up trust.’

    If you try hard enough you will be rejected.

    As the colleagues looked at the destroyed Reas they talked about their experiences one of which was the story of being rejected by the blacksmith.

    [Are you sure you’re not leaving right away?]

    When Jeong-hoon did not give a clear answer Mukho asked in an anxious voice.

    This quick-witted guy.

    “huh. “If you want to request it you need to raise your trust level first.”

    [under….]

    “Good things come to those who endure.”

    [What does that mean?]

    “It’s a proverb in our country.”

    […I’ll endure it a little longer.]

    “good idea.”

    The place Jeong-Hoon headed to was the ‘Warrior’s Holy Land’.

    In order to enter the warrior’s shrine in the warrior city you must take some kind of qualification test.

    “for a moment.”

    Two warriors guarding the entrance to the city blocked Jeonghun.

    ====

    [NPC Information]

    -Nickname: Lukes

    -Level: 230

    – Occupation: Barbarian Warrior

    ====

    [NPC Information]

    -Nickname: Ram

    -Level: 230

    – Occupation: Barbarian Warrior

    ====

    All of these are barbarian warriors.

    He was a barbarian himself carrying a huge ax on his back and roughly covering his rugged muscles with monster skin.

    A question mark was blinking above Luke’s head.

    [General Quest: City of Warriors]

    -Restriction: Users with strength over 250

    -Reward: Unlock access to the Warrior City

    -Description: Pass Luke’s test to gain permission to enter the city.

    The condition for receiving the quest to enter the city of warriors is to have a strength level of 250 or higher.

    Even if you are not a warrior you can enter by simply completing the quest.

    And Jeong Hoon achieved that figure.

    [Detailed abilities]

    -Strength: 283(+28) -> 311

    -Agility: 276(+29) -> 305

    -Health: 270(+29) -> 299

    -Defense: 261(+25) -> 286

    -Wisdom: 251(+25) -> 276

    -Horsepower: 400(+40) -> 440

    -Holy Power: 400(+40) -> 440

    -Spirit: 246(+27) -> 273

    Abilities increased after reaching level 203.

    The bonus stat was evenly distributed between magic power and divine power making it 440.

    Additionally with all stats exceeding 250 you can now complete all city entry quests.

    Jeonghoon immediately accepted the quest.

    “What do you want to pass by here?”

    The corners of Luke’s mouth turned up with a smirk.

    “yes.”

    When Jeonghoon nodded his head he grabbed the handle of the ax that Lukes was carrying and swung it.

    Boom-

    Jeong Hoon used divine techniques to avoid the axe.

    bang!

    Thanks to this the ax stuck in the spot where Jeong-hoon was standing.

    An aura was flickering at the tip of the axe.

    “Then just withstand my attacks 10 times. “If you hold out I will allow you to enter.”

    “great.”

    Number 10? I like how simple it is.

    “How arrogant!”

    Lukes screamed and focused his magic on his legs.

    [Lukes uses stomp.]

    He jumped up from his seat rushed at Jeong-Hoon and struck down the ax with all his might.

    [Lukes uses a downward slash.]

    Boom!

    Before he knew it Leviathan was in Jeonghoon’s hand.

    He lifted Leviathan at an angle and let Luke’s ax fall.

    Squeak- Boom!

    “how?!”

    Luke’s pupils trembled in embarrassment.

    It was an attack meant to be avoided but I never thought he would raise his sword and throw his ax to the side.

    He wasn’t even a warrior.

    Mutuga.

    They were the same type of guys who had no strength and could barely stand in a corner and just throw punches.

    “I thought it wouldn’t be fun if I just avoided it.”

    Jeonghoon said pointing the tip of Leviathan’s sword at Luks.

    At that moment the corner of Luke’s mouth went up awkwardly.

    “This is an arrogant bastard. Okay let’s do it like this. “If you inflict even one wound on me with that sword I will let you pass immediately.”

    He added one option.

    I will definitely educate that damn martial artist.

    “Oh that’s nice.”

    Jeonghoon nodded his head and unfolded his divine law.

    He arrived in front of Lukes in an instant.

    “What!”

    I couldn’t even read the signs properly.

    Lukes urgently picked up the ax and tried to push Jeonghoon away.

    However Jeong Hoon’s sword was one beat faster.

    [Type 1: Activates standing.]

    Suddenly.

    Using the first sword of annihilation he cut off Luke’s shoulder.

    “Keuheuk!”

    Rooks groaned and swung his axe.

    Jeong Hoon spread the divine law to distance himself from him and put Leviathan in his inventory.

    “It’s over.”

    “Did I lose….”

    Lukes touched his shoulder with his hand.

    He laughed in disbelief as he saw blood on his hands.

    An exclamation point was blinking above his head.

    [You have completed the quest.]

    [The entry restriction to the City of Warriors has been lifted.]

    In the first place Lukes could not be Jeonghoon’s opponent.

    Level 230.

    That means the detailed abilities are similar.

    On the other hand Jeong Hoon’s strength and agility have long since exceeded 300.

    “Let’s go in.”

    As Jeong-Hoon took a step Ram who had been watching from the side stepped aside to avoid him.

    Only after he disappeared did Ram check on Lux’s condition.

    “Hey Lukes. Are you okay?”

    “…I really lost right?”

    “okay. “You lost.”

    “To someone whose level is lower than mine…?”

    “okay.”

    “…I guess I’m dreaming now.”

    Lukes could not easily accept that he had been defeated by a landslide.

    * * *

    As a city of warriors there were various other warriors inside besides these people.

    Among them the ruler resided in the warrior’s shrine.

    The Warrior’s Holy Land was also a place that users with the warrior profession must visit.

    The shrine was located in the center of the city and pointed to a very magnificently built temple.

    There were countless users walking around in front of it.

    “Hey did you get the quest?”

    “huh. “I finally woke up after two weeks but the next quest was even more extreme.”

    “That’s just the way it is. Still you have to break it to be able to create a relic.”

    “Ha… It’s really fucking annoying.”

    “If you don’t your firepower will drop and it will become difficult to hunt monsters. “You have to do it no matter what.”

    “That should be it….”

    I entered the sanctuary while listening to the users’ conversations.

    And in the sanctuary there were more than 10 NPCs giving quests to users but only one NPC was watching the whole situation as if he was bored.

    [NPC Information]

    -Nickname: Werd von Rudheim

    -Level: 350

    – Occupation: Head of the city of warriors

    ===

    A handsome man in his early to mid 30s with silver hair and impressive red eyes.

    That person is the head of this city and the sword master.

    It was Werd von Rudheim.

    Jeonghoon walked past the NPCs with blinking question marks and approached him.

    “Mr. Berd.”

    When Verd called him he looked at Jeonghun.

    “hmm? “Who are you?”

    “Do you know anything about this fragment?”

    What Jeong-hoon took out was the ‘old warrior’s mark fragment’ that he had received from Isaac’s wife Charlotte.

    “…Where did you get this?”

    At that moment a question mark blinked above Berd’s head.

    It was a red question mark.
