Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Region 0 (3)

The monsters that appeared seemed to be very hostile.

And as expected, the orcs nearby charged at me.

I spammed Ice Ball and Ice Bolt at the heads of the orcs.

I didn't have to use other skills even if I could because I could easily smash the heads of these orcs.

Of course, there were numerous orcs, so they kept charging at me, not caring at all even if their fellow Orcs were killed before their eyes.

But my Ice Ball and Ice Bolt cooldowns were already back.

What's more, my Ice Bolt, let alone my Ice Ball, did not disappear even after killing only one Orc and penetrated through more of them.

Puck! Puck! Puck!

The Orcs charged at me in single file when I attacked them while stepping back little by little. Seizing the momentum, I spammed Ice Bolt at a group of orcs and it penetrated the chests of four or five orcs in a row.

Those Orcs froze, and fell to the ground right away in their running postures.

“Hahahaha,” I chuckled at that fantastic scene.

As a matter of fact, I've recently been hunting using AOE skills only.

Even if I tried using a single-target skill, all I would use was Ice Spear and Multiple Arrow.

With those skills, I could sweep away the monsters I had already herded. By the time I herded them again, the cooldowns of those skills were already back.

When I thought of that, I naturally recalled those days when I hunted by using Ice Ball and Ice Bolt only like I did now.

At that time, I had Ice Weapon and Ice s.h.i.+eld, but I rarely used them.

Moreover, during ‘Revival Legend', I could hunt very easily due to the 1000 remaining stat points I received from my t.i.tle of the Only Closed Beta Max Level User, but I really had a hard time hunting during the 1st, 2nd and 3d Closed Betas called ‘Forgotten Legend.' But the thing was that I sometimes thought that it was more fun back then because I went at it like crazy for a reason.

And I really felt great joy when I received even one golden ring.

‘Man, what the h.e.l.l am I recalling now?'

At that moment, I unwittingly trembled at the thought that I beautified my hard times as beautiful memories.

If someone asks me if I'm willing to go back to those days, I would say I have no intention of doing so. I love the present 100 times, 1000 times, even 10000 times better.

Anyway, they were simply my old memories, so I stopped thinking about them and continued to hunt the Orcs with a smile on my mouth.

In Region 0, a message rang whenever I successfully hunted an orc.

[You have acquired 11 points.]

[You have acquired 15 points.]

[You have acquired 9 points.]

It was very small compared to the 200,000 points that I first earned.

But it was because there were only orcs.

I have no intention of hunting only Orcs for 30 days.

Moreover, there were other messages.

[You have acquired 5000 Golden Rings.]

[You have acquired 7500 Golden Rings.]

[You have acquired 6000 Golden Rings.]

I never thought that I could receive more than 5000 golden rings for simply hunting orcs that level 5 beginners hunted.

Actually I had never received even one golden ring at that level.

Of course, there was one thing I felt regret about.

It was none other than EXP.

If I were given a lot of EXP like golden rings, this would be heaven to me.

And Pablo, who said he was punis.h.i.+ng me, must have been an angel with a weird character.

Anyway, there was a possibility that I would receive EXP as a reward after 30 days, so I felt I didn't have to feel disappointed at this point.

So, I constantly spammed Ice b.a.l.l.s and Ice Bolts at the orcs.

Given my 7% reality actualization rate, there was no chance of my mana running out no matter how many Ice b.a.l.l.s and Ice Bolts I used.

The next day, I took a break and slept well because this event would last 30 days, not just one or two days.

In the meantime, I discovered a couple of strange things about Region 0.

First, the monsters here did not resp.a.w.n.

Once the orcs were killed, that was it.

So, only a few orcs were left in the s.p.a.ce where many of them used to populate

Secondly, the s.p.a.ce where these orcs resided wasn't infinite.

In other words, a message rang while I was moving in one direction, hunting the orcs.

[You cannot leave Stage 1 until you hunt all the orcs.]

Judging by that, I could figure out what kind of place Region 0 was.

Stages existed here, and I could only move to the next stage only after hunting all the monsters in the previous stage first.

Anyway, since I started hunting late at night yesterday, I drove the remaining orcs into one place before going to sleep because I didn't know if I might have to sleep at a late hour with the appearance of lots of hostile monsters if I progressed to the next stage now.

Then, I got up and had cereal as breakfast as usual, then accessed ‘Revival Legend' to get rid of the remaining orcs.

At that moment, a message rang.

[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared Stage 1.

-As a reward for clearing Stage 1, you have received 50,000 points.

-As a reward for clearing Stage 1, you have received 100 remaining stat points.

-You have received additional points to your score at the end of the test because you had 0 deaths while clearing Stage 1.

-Stage 2 will open in 10 minutes.]

“Wow!”

More than anything else, the remaining 100 stat points caught my eye.

Honestly, I liked this better than the messages announcing my level-ups because I knew my level would just go up and up anyway. That being said, I desperately wanted to reach level 1200 as soon as possible.

Anyway, there was something that I could know for sure from the message.

Namely, this place was heaven, and Pablo was really an angel to me.

So I waited for ten minutes, longing for the second stage to open quickly.

Soon a new monster, which was not an orc, appeared.

It was none other than a wolf, a Gray Wolf, which was far harder to kill compared to the previous orcs.

“Khhhhhhhhhang!”

“Kaaaaaaaaang!”

As soon as the wolves noticed me, they showed their sharp canines and charged at me.

But I used my skills immediately.

“Ice Ball! Ice Bolt!”

Puck! Puck! Puck!

“Khhhhhhhhhang!”

“Yip!”

My Ice b.a.l.l.s and Ice Bolts were still very powerful. So much so that they smashed the heads of Gray Wolves with just one stroke.

In particular, my Ice Bolts penetrated through three of them, killing them on the spot.

Nonetheless, I found it hard to stop all the Gray Wolves with Ice b.a.l.l.s and Ice Bolts only.

First of all, there were so many wolves out there.

At that moment, I missed my AOE skills, but I currently could not access them.

As a result, I had no choice but to allow one Gray Wolf to bite my ankle.

I frowned because of the possible damage.

But I felt something strange.

“?”

“?”

It didn't hurt at all.

Even the Gray Wolf that bit me with its sharp teeth seemed confused because I didn't seem to be wounded at all.

At that moment, I realized that I had underestimated my stamina and health too much.

Actually they were very high.

I can say confidently that n.o.body has a higher stamina than me because even the tanks that have stamina as their main stat would not invest all their stat points in stamina.

Anyway, I lifted my right leg which was being bitten by the wolf and struck it towards the ground.

The Gray Wolf was jostled by the impact.

“How dare you bite a human?'

Puck! Puck! Puck!

While using Ice Ball and Ice Bolt against the other Gray Wolves, I kicked the Gray Wolf with my right leg endlessly. I fought the wolves for more than 12 hours, leaving only a few Gay Wolves far away from me.

“Hmm…”

Unlike Stage 1 where I hunted the orcs, I had to agonize for a moment this time because of the sudden increase in the level of difficulty.

Of course, if I had full access to my abilities, I was confident I could hunt any monster.

However, the only skills that I could use with my 7% reality actualization raate were Ice Ball and Ice Bolt.

“Well, let me check first anyway.”

Since I had no intention of idling for 30 days, I charged at the remaining Gray wolves.

And it took only a little time for me to easily hunt them.

[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared Stage 2.

-As a reward for clearing Stage 2, you have received 100,000 points.

-As a reward for clearing Stage 2, you have received 1 trait shard.

-You have received additional points to your score at the end of the test because you had 0 deaths while clearing Stage 2.

-Stage 3 will open in 10 minutes.]

“Uh?”
