Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 222

Chapter 222: Last Limited Quest (5)

Of course, there was a message about greed, but I didn't care because regardless of the temporary storage or greed, everything I earned is going to be mine after returning to the start with a 100% achievement rate.

Moreover, I had another reason to achieve 100% while I was moving.

[You have killed the desert bug.

-You have acquired 1 skill point.

-It is stored temporarily, and you will receive it at the end depending on your final achievement rate.]

“?”

At first, I thought I received a stat point because all I needed to kill the desert bug was Ice Ball. In other words, it was a very weak monster.

Of course, another message rang as well.

[The Forgotten Hero's Cloak fails to defend.

-By killing the desert bug, your greed has increased by 3.]

I didn't care much about the message announcing that my greed level had increased because I had already become quite greedy from the reward of one skill point. It was as if my greed had instantly increased by 10 or 1000.

“d.a.m.n it! Unless I achieve 100%, it all means nothing!”

In other words, even if I achieved 99%, 0.99 skill points is not equal to 1. It was basically zero.

Moreover, I had many skills that I could not upgrade only due to a lack of skill points.

I also wanted to learn other skills related to increasing strength, agility and the like, even though I was an ice-type wizard, but I could not because of insufficient skill points.

So, while shouting loud, I kept moving my feet that got stuck in the sand while using Ice Field and Thin Ice as a means to speed up whenever their cooldown was back.

While Juyoung Hong, or Asirante was busy like that, a live stream was being broadcasted on Youtube, the platform with the most viewers in the world. Normally, since the broadcast was only running for under an hour so far, it should not have so many viewers. But it was the opposite. Not only was the t.i.tle of the program stimulating, but its contents also far exceeded the viewers' expectations, so the number of viewers quickly increased to hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands.

Therefore, the broadcast became known not only to the general public, but also to the governments and large groups around the world instantly. Of course, among them was the Strategy Department of Korea's Myongjin Group.

Knock! Knock!

“Director! Right now…”

“I know. Please calm down.”

Director Sok nodded, calmly responding to a member of the Strategic Department who hurriedly rushed to his office because he knew the reason for all this commotion.

As a matter of fact, Director Sok was also watching the live video broadcast on Youtube in real time. So, after giving a simple instruction to that employee, Director Sok turned his gaze back to the video. The man in the video was holding a fireball in one hand.

“As you can see in the video, all the governments of the so-called powerful countries have known this all along. Besides, they created an organization called NW among themselves. But so far they've been silent about it for their own vested interests.”

If what the man in the video said was all talk and no action, Director Sok would not pay any attention to him. But the man was showing several photographs of the actual NW meeting, which even Sok had only heard of.

Of course, among the partic.i.p.ants were those high-ranking officials who frequently appeared in newspapers and televisions.

“What? Is this all manipulated and fake? Actually we here at Asant Group also thought like that. Then, let's watch this video. I can't tell you from which country, but we have obtained this video secretly by hacking.”

As soon as the man finished talking, another video was shown on the screen.

A swarm of bats suddenly appeared in a square. Of course, even if it was during the day, it might not be unusual for a swarm of bats to appear in a plaza with lots of people because lots of strange things happened these days.

However, it was not something usual at all considering that the bats were almost as large as an adult human and immediately attacked humans to suck their blood.

Moreover, the people who were bitten by the bats soon turned into something like mummies.

After that, tanks and soldiers appeared in the square to deal with the incident.

However, among those soldiers ,there were some who wore unusual attire.

They were clad in ordinary clothes, not military uniform, but since they were standing among the soldiers, they stood out.

What came next was their attacks. Obviously, they didn't have guns in their hands, nor did they hold flamethrowers. But they produced fire, water, and wind.

The ground that was still was suddenly shaken and swallowed the giant bats.

It was just like a movie.

When the shocking video was over, the man appeared on the screen again.

“Do you still think it's like a movie? But that actually happened in the Taj Mahal, India! Do you think this stuff in my hand is fake?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he tossed the papers to his right, and immediately threw a fireball at them. And in no time, the several pieces of paper started to burn.

Obviously, he was showing the same abilities as those in ordinary clothing in the plaza did.

“Our Asanta hacker group couldn't just ignore this incident. So, we thought we should publicize this to you, although many higher ups in the world already knew about it. Your world will soon be overturned. But we, the Asanta hacker group…]

The Youtube live broadcast ended immediately.

Nevertheless, Director Sok could not leave the place for a while.

Then he uttered quietly, “Hmm. I wonder why they revealed this information so late. Perhaps it's because they are hackers, or they simply decided not to care about the consequences. But if they really think that there will be no consequences…”

As soon as he finished uttering these words, Sok stood up from the seat right away.

At the Land of Endless Greed.

“Check status window.”

[Lumen, Asirante's current status.

-Current achievement rate: 39.22%

-Remaining time: 18: 01: 22]

Even though I was trying my hardest, I had not even achieved 40%. I realistically had only six hours left, since I needed 12 hours to return to the starting point.

In other words, it was impossible for me to achieve 100% no matter how hard I tried for the remaining 6 hours.

Of course, I beat the highest record recorded by the Myongjin users a long time ago.

Moreover, I could obtain a meaningful reward with only a 50% achievement rate because I was lucky enough to acquire one more skill point while moving.

So, I currently have a total of 2 skill points in temporary storage, and I would receive at least one skill point if I achieved only 50%.

In the past, I would have stopped at that level because aside from the one skill point, 50% of the various rewards I obtained while moving was still very significant.

Besides, my real reward would be determined based on my final achievement rate. “No. I don't have to be content with just 50%. If I proceed at the current speed, I can achieve 80%, right? Aside from skill points, why don't I achieve 80% so I get more of the other rewards? Let's go!”

Although I kept rea.s.suring myself, I had already decided that I should achieve 70-75% to have some leeway. But all of a sudden, I was occupied with achieving 80%.
