Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 18

Chapter 18: Terrific move (2)

I was walking on the road that would take outside Kotum Castle.

‘Hmm. Did they need to make a fuss over that?’

I forgot it. In fact, I could not help but forget it because so many surprising things happened for to even think about it.

But it seed that other users could not easily forget it.

That’s why I could hear a lot of chattering near the square while I was moving out of Kotum Castle. They were chattering about the guy who smashed the scarecrow at the training field. “It’s real! You saw it too. Just like a missing tooth in your mouth, one scarecrow was missing in the ranks of scarecrows spaced at regular intervals.”

“I know. Calm down. You’re right.”

“I’m saying it because you don’t listen to seriously.”

“It’s because you are saying the sa thing over and over again.”

“Whew… If you were there, you would be more excited than . It was amazing, man. Especially the guy brandishing the stick...”

As if he was disappointed by his friend’s lukewarm reaction, the man who was haranguing spoke with a sigh.

“By the way, was the guy really a beginner?”

“Of course he is. Basically, the training field is off limits to those Level 10 or higher. And there is evidence. He destroyed the scarecrow and disappeared as if he evaporated. Think about his level. He achieved Level 10 imdiately. That’s why he bounced out of the field.”

“Hmm. More than 50 people witnessed the scene, but none of them saw his face?”

“If you watch him wield the club, you will be so fascinated that you won’t have ti to see his face.”

“You bet. Of course, if you invest stat points at Level 100 or 200 in Power, Agility and Physical Strength evenly, you can wield the stick as good as him, but only those below Level 10 can enter! Below Level 10!”

While those who witnessed the scene in person were engaged in a heated argunt, I saw another man behind them opening his mouth carefully.

“... I think I saw him.”

“Really? His face?”

“No, not his face…”

“Then, what?”

“Well, it looked like he had white hair and white eyebrows.”

“White hair and white eyebrows?”

“No, what I an is not the gray hair from aging… Oh yes! He had white hair and white eyebrows as if snow had piled up on his face.”

“Um… did he? If he had had white hair, he would have attracted lots of attention.”

“You bet.”

They were half in doubt while listening to him.

Then the man, who said that he seed to have seen the guy’s white hair and white eyebrows, quickly murmured and opened his mouth, “I’m not sure either. I an he looked like the guy at first glance.”

Tramp, tramp.

I walked away, ignoring their chattering noise from the square. Then I lifted my hand and pulled out a strand of hair from my bangs to confirm. It was black, as expected.

‘What the heck is he talking about? My hair is so black.’

When the character was created by body recognition, iris recognition, and brain wave recognition, I didn’t make any changes or corrections, let alone the color of my pupils. Therefore, my hair must be black.

I actually confird with my own eyes that it was black.

So, I couldn’t help but laugh at the man who said out of the blue that he seed to have seen with white hair and white eyebrows, for he would never know that the guy was .

Of course, I had no intention of hiding my identity, and I don’t have to.

But for the ti being, I will because I’m a beginner who has just started playing the ga.

Moreover, I’m not just a beginner, but one with enormous potential in the days to co.

So, I don’t want to invite their possible obstruction or check because as they say, a protruding nail is a friendly touch.

So, if I decided to show up, I wanted to do so in a situation where nobody would dare challenge or touch .

Moreover, the protagonist is supposed to show up later.

So, I made up my mind like that and quickly moved to the outskirts of Kotum Castle.

Of course, there was a destination I had already decided to go to.

It was the golem habitat that users left deserted because of insufficient EXP for the level of difficulty during the third closed beta.

But it would be a very good place for now.

The golems here occupied a fairly large area and one dungeon.

Of course, the golems would pop out of that one dungeon into the habitat.

“It’s quiet, as expected.”

During the third closed beta, it was first released as a hunting ground for those at Level 250, but it was imdiately discarded.

I also avoided it for a slightly different reason because my goal at the ti was to achieve the max level in two weeks unconditionally. Therefore, I had no choice but to care about my EXP first. However, it had no rit as a hunting ground because of the stingy EXP for the hunting of Level 250 monsters.

In other words, it was a worthless hunting ground for .

So, I hunted there for a bit, then skipped it right away.

But now it’s perfect for to start hunting here for the first ti.

So I escaped the Teleport Zone of Kotum Castle and the Teleport Zone that connected the golem habitat here.

“I’m a spirit elent with the spirit of fire. I’m looking for a party.”

“Regardless of elental wizards above Level 220, we accept everybody. So, hurry up.”

“We buy large and small amounts of 5 golden rings for each Stone Golem.”

“Let bless the equipnt you are wearing. Since you’re dealing with the stone golem, go get buffs. It is already late when you are complaining that your equipnt is not durable. I only get 10 gold rings for my blessings.”

Of course there were other users in the safety zone around the Teleport Zone who were conducting business, resting, or seeking party mbers. And their activities were fully understandable because this ga, renad “Revival Legend,” was not a closed beta with ti limits.

Soon I passed by other users and moved into the golem habitat.

Then, the stone golems showed up imdiately.

I was glad to see them.

And the five stone golems that approached , sniffed here and there, welcoming . So, I opened my mouth right away pointing to the stone golem walking at the forefront.

“Ice Ball.”

Obviously the target was its legs. More precisely, the joint part of its knees because it was the standard way of hunting so that I could slow the creature.

For people like who preferred fighting at a distance, this kind of attack was ideal.

Soon, a huge lump of ice popped out of my hands and was shot at the stone golem’s knees.

Puk!

The hitting sound was not that loud, but its effect was aweso.

At first I thought it would be better to slow the stone golem even more by just casting a slight frostbite, but the ice lump smashed its knees.

Thud!

And the golem, whose knees were smashed, swayed and collapsed to the floor.

Of course, it was not dead yet, but it was almost dead.

In other words, one Level 1 Ice Ball had smashed a Level 250 monster.

“Wow, is this the power of Iceman?”

Over 2,000 Intellectual Power. It is definitely high.

Especially considering its Level, the level was unimaginable.

However, this figure was slightly lower than when I reached Level 300 in the third closed beta.

At that ti, since I was also a wizard fully devoted to Intellectual Power, all the items I chose to equip focused on Intellectual Power.

However, the Iceman trait I had this ti made Ice Ball much more powerful than that since Iceman increased the performance of all ice-type skills by 30%.

“Huhhh.” So, I laughed like a villain.
