Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Who is Asirante? (3)

At the Kusan Group.

“So, his na is Asirante, right?” Chairman Unki Chung asked.

“Yes. And this guy is the man who is most likely to have reached the maximum level during the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Closed Betas. Well, I’m more certain now from watching this video. I’m certain Asirante is the man who reached the maximum level in all three rounds of the Closed Beta. There is no other way we can explain his trendous power,” his chief secretary Taesun Lee replied.

Then, Sokyoung Chung, who once t the ice wizard identified as Asirante during the Scorpion King quest, opened his mouth.

“He has beco a lot stronger. Even when he was only level 131, I found it very hard to deal with him, and I feel it even more so now. Given his ability when he was level 131, he must have levelled up faster than anybody else, but it looks like him levelling up once is equivalent to others levelling up 10 tis or even 100 tis or even more.”

But nobody in the conference room refuted him because the current Asirante made it look like this could really be true.

“By the way, the fact that he revealed his identity openly…”

Asirante did not disclose his ID to the end when he was the 30th participant in the Scorpion King’s quest. So, they could not help but suspect his real motivations from openly revealing his ID this ti. They had the impression that Asirante freely revealed his identity instead of disclosing it reluctantly. Everyone in the conference room was smart enough to make such an inference.

“Isn’t it sothing like a show to demonstrate his real worth and value?” Chief secretary Lee said.

“Hmm…” Chairman Chung groaned at that.

Then Lee continued, “Maybe Asirante won’t be in a hurry. He won’t close shop before he ets a real custor who can appreciate his value.”

“Okay. Good. Anyway we have to win him over by all ans. He may be the most needed man when the server wall disappears, and the world opens up beyond this narrow land of Korea. We especially need him to prevent China and Japan from eating Korea up.”

“Got it, Mr. Chairman!”

“I will try to find the best possible solution.”

So, Daesung and the Kusan, who had already encountered Asirante, or more precisely, Lun, began to move rapidly.

But they were not in a hurry because Asirante showed no impatience or imdiate signs of movent given the way he acted toward the Sungchang Guild.

Besides, they could give him a bad impression if they hurried recklessly.

Of course, Mirae and Daeyu also began to move for Asirante was too attractive for them to sit idle even if it was highly unlikely for them to win him over.

In particular, Bora Yon of the Mirae Group recalled one person after watching the video.

She recalled none other than her bosom friend Juyoung Hong, even though the man in the video was wearing a robe and a mask. But she shook her head almost imdiately because she thought it was highly unlikely that Myongjin neglected such a valuable guy in a shallow outside their main house.

She felt that unless Myongjin was crazy, they would not do this because they knew the significance of “Revival Legend” more than anyone else.

So she shook her head more to erase the image of Juyoung overlapping with this man Asirante in her mind.

And what about Myongjin? Of course, they moved too.

Chairman Sangman Hong knew very well that a dam could fail even with a small leak.

At the abandoned field of trees.

‘Aren;t they being too prudent?”

It has already been a week since that family eting in the basent study.

I knew that rumors about had spread widely enough, but it was quiet, as if nobody was interested in .

Of course, I heard through my sister that Mirae, Daesung, Kusan, and Daeyu were racking their brains to find out more about .

Anyway, even though I was lost in idle thought, I didn’t stop focusing on hunting.

At that mont a ssage that I was looking forward to rang.

[You have levelled up.]

“Oh, Check status window.”

When I participated in Sungchang’s boss monster raid, I was level 264.

So, I had leveled up by 35 levels in the last.

If I leveled up one more, I would be level 300, the sa level which I achieved during the 3rd Closed Beta.

I could not help but be satisfied with this. Then my eyes turned to the Intellect stat which was almost 8000. Of course, I got this high number thanks to the items I had currently equipped including rings, earrings, necklaces and other options, but I especially benefited from the legendary Sacred Permanent Snow Spirit accessories that granted 250 Intellect.

When I equipped the set items, I imdiately knew why everybody was so anxious to obtain good items.

Since I could get more satisfaction when I achieved level 300 later, I invested all my remaining stat points in Intellect and closed the status window.

Then, I pulled out an item from the inventory.

“Check item.”

[Root (general)

-If you eat it, you will get one root.]

It was an item I obtained from the long-rooted ancient tree.

I’ve never seen such an unkind and blunt description like this in all the several gas I have played.

So, I asked my dad, brother, and sister about this because they knew I had hunted the long-rooted ancient tree. They also knew that Sungchang gave up on the items dropped by the boss monster.

But no one knew the aning of this description. Even Managing Director Insu Sok didn’t know.

Of course, this item was of the lowest grade with only a one line description.

Based on this, I could easily infer that it was not an important item.

It looked even more trifling when compared to the 11-line description about the stone squirrel’s undigested mineral masses.

“Hmm.”

I looked down at the root that looked like a dried fern about the size of my finger.

“It’s only a general grade tiem at best. If this thing was valuable, Sungchang wouldn’t have let have it.’

Sungchang decided to give all the items that the boss monster dropped. They didn’t even pay attention to the items as if they thought they were all useless.

Honestly, the item was too insignificant for to agonize over its use and efficacy for over a week.

So, I just put it in my mouth and chewed it. And after chewing this thing that was tough like rubber a few tis, I swallowed it.

Then I waited for one minute, two minutes, three minutes and five minutes, curious to see what would happen. But nothing happened until five minutes passed.

“What the heck? Check the Summoned Tree list.”

[Summoned Tree list.

-Currently, there is no summoned tree.

-You can acquire and use the summoning tree skill.]

“Check the Tad Monster list.”

[Tad Monster list.

-Currently, there is no tad monster.

-You can acquire and use the taming monster skill.]

“…”

It was a ssage that said I had nothing I wanted at the mont.

So, I checked the ssage and then trod forward with my right foot, then my left foot.

Then, I also tried jumping because roots were generally buried in the ground, absorbing moisture and nutrients to maintain the trunk of a tree.

So I wondered if there was so effect that would co from my feet or soles touching the ground, but nothing happened even though I jumped off the ground with both feet at the sa ti.

“Huh.”

Of course, I didn’t expect anything big because it was only a general grade item, even though it was an item dropped by a boss monster.

But I didn’t think that absolutely nothing would happen from eating the root.

I didn’t have to agonize over it because agonizing wouldn’t give an answer.

So, I checked the ti first because I was supposed to visit my main house tomorrow.

It was exactly past 1 am. I imdiately moved to the Safety Zone in the abandoned field of trees and logged out.

I wanted to hit level 300 by hunting for a few more hours, but I didn’t want to break my schedule because I could hunt after waking up in the morning before leaving for ho anyway.

As always, I logged out, brushed my teeth, and went to sleep, dreaming of hitting level 300 tomorrow and having new skills and items.

At dawn when Juyoung was still asleep. Sothing appeared on his soles. It was black and wrinkled and the size of a little finger. Then, it crawled around him like a caterpillar before disappearing back into his soles.

The next morning.

As soon as I got up early in the morning, I didn’t wash or have breakfast so I could access the ga imdiately because I really wanted to hit level 300 before visiting ho.

Since I concentrated more than ever before, I achieved level 300 in less than four hours.

As a result I received 3 skill points from achieving level 300.

This achievent alone was enough for to celebrate, for acquiring a new skill ant that I would beco stronger than before.

But this ti there was one more thing I was waiting for. It was none other than the level 300 only quest that could be an opportune mont to advertise my na Asirante.

And this was my original plan. The boss monster that I hunted with Sungchang wasn’t initially part of my plan.

Anyway, I moved to the Safety Zone in an abandoned field of trees with a smile and logged out.

I took a bath straight away and skipped breakfast even though I was hungry because I wanted to eat a warm ho-made al.

The mont I sat down on the bed to put on my socks, I found sothing unusual.

“Uh? What the heck is this hole?”

There was a small hole by the leg of the bed.

“Was it there from the beginning?”

But I didn’t really care because it was so small that I might not have noticed it before.

Anyway, I left the one-room studio while holding my 3G VR device.
