Chapter 170: Golgol
‘What should I do?’
Jeong Nayeon quickly racked her brain after seeing viewers fighting over whether to impose tier restrictions or not, even donating large amounts.
Since the numbers were what they were, she couldn’t satisfy everyone, but she needed to reach a conclusion that as many people as possible would accept.
After all, the decision-making power was essentially in her hands right now, so she couldn’t help but worry.
‘I can’t completely impose or remove tier restrictions. Then—’
“Alright! I’ll decide for you! When selecting teammates, no tier restrictions! When selecting the opposing team, Platinum and above only! How’s that?!”
-Half and half, not bad
-Ah~ Are you Solomon?
-But this really is the best option;
-Good good, this is it
‘Bronze=Silver=Gold=Platinum=Diamond’ donated ‘10,000 won’!
[I support this]
Jeong Nayeon’s choice was a gentle compromise. You could say she mixed both sides’ opinions and blended them together.
However, if you looked at it in detail, it was roughly a 4-to-6 conclusion that leaned more toward lower-tier viewers than upper-tier viewers.
In any case, the most coveted spot as Baek Woohyun’s teammate beca a situation where everyone had to compete regardless of tier.
Of course, that didn’t an upper-tier viewers openly expressed dissatisfaction. They just grumbled lightly with so disappointnt.
After all, their numbers were relatively small to begin with, and as one viewer’s chat suggested, they too knew this was the best option.
It was inevitable since the panels of the ‘Hack Tour’ content were personal broadcasters whose viewer count directly correlated to profits.
“First, shall we pick one person to be on our team?!”
-Please
please
please
please
please
-Ah ???? This has to be
????
-Everyone move aside, I want to be alone
-You must respect
I have never once escaped Bronze until now [Read more]
‘Life Achievent Complete’ donated ‘10,000 won’!
[I really hope there’s a bug and nobody gets selected]
-When I’m asking nicely, everyone stop chatting, hyung doesn’t say things twice
-What can you do if you don’t talk? ????????
-The fact is I’m definitely getting picked
-Tricky is hacking ???? Tricky is hacking ???? Tricky is hacking ????
Since even the tier restrictions were decided, there was no reason to hesitate any longer. Jeong Nayeon imdiately announced she’d pick one teammate first, and the viewers went wild.
When tens of thousands of viewers hamred out chats simultaneously, they moved so fast that people couldn’t even properly see their own chats going up.
So even typed again because their chats flew by like that, and with those enthusiastically spamming added in, the chat window was absolute chaos itself.
‘I’m Silver’ donated ‘1,000 won’!
[They say if you pay an entry fee you get picked better!!]
‘Challenging Challenger’ donated ‘1,000 won’!
[I’ll tell you what it’s like from a Challenger perspective so everyone wait ????]
‘5-Number Mage’ donated ‘10,000 won’!
[If I pay ten tis the entry fee, is the probability ten tis? Please]
The donation side was just as noisy in its own way.
They were making entry fee jokes while firing off donations one after another like performing so rain ritual to increase their chances of winning.
For the panels of the ‘Hack Tour’ content, this wasn’t bad at all—in fact, it was sothing they should greatly welco—so they didn’t particularly stop it.
“Wow! There are so many applicants…!”
-Stop joking around, everyone leave
-Damn ???? Guess I should give up ????
-Cut out those guys subtly acting expectant while saying it won’t work!
-Isn’t this like an all-ti high for viewer participation requests? The class is insane for real;
“The reaction is… much more than I expected?”
“Haha. After all, one-on-one education from Hackphysical is an opportunity any PVP user would definitely want to grab.”
Cha Seongcheol shrugged his shoulders and spoke to Chloe, who was blinking in surprise.
“Probably many pro players would want to do it too if they could.”
-If he even caught Nikki, I agree
-What if I’m a pro weak at 1v1? I applied for this too ????
-He’s the talent DH Empire is officially trying to recruit
-Praying for Hackphysical’s pro debut, Day 53
Even at Cha Seongcheol’s seemingly excessive claim that pros would seek out an amateur for teachings, viewers didn’t object and agreed.
If he’d made such a claim without any track record, he would’ve been beaten down, but Baek Woohyun had already shown far too much.
When he broke Battler’s winning streak record, he achieved an overwhelming victory against another World Class pro player, Nikki Lee Yeonu.
Following that, he received a public recruitnt offer from DH Empire, which Battler and Nikki belonged to, and other pro teams also secretly sent recruitnt offers.
“The person selected for the sa team is… ‘Gold Cries Golgol’!”
-Ugh, a Gold player
-Why can I see the tier in the nickna?
-I searched their match history and they played tons of gas but stayed in Gold ????
-Pure-blood Gold ????????????
“As you all know, don’t say bad things about the winner! You’ll get banned!”
Jeong Nayeon sent the training room code to the first winner while also recruiting people to join the opposing team.
Since only Platinum-tier and above viewers could apply, the montum was relatively weaker, but it was more than enough to pick five people.
Well, even if just over 1 percent of the current viewers applied, it would easily exceed several hundred people, so there could never be a shortage of participants.
“Ooh- They’re in!”
“Who am I? The one-in-several-hundred man!”
-One-in-several-hundred nonsense ????????
-Look at him spouting bullshit since his face isn’t visible in protection mode ????????????
-Did only cheerful people co
-The other three are subtly avoiding? ????
After the training room code was sent to the five people who would be the opposing team, people soon began appearing one by one in the training room that had only contained Baek Woohyun and the ‘Hack Tour’ panels.
Among them was soone who let out quite an impressive shout, but that was just a common case. Human types are that diverse.
“Everyone! Please pay attention for a mont! Now you will beco one team and—”
Cha Seongcheol, who stepped forward as the panel representative, skillfully gathered the opposing team mbers in one place and led them to discuss role assignnts and such.
He was trying to help them, since they could only do sothing against Baek Woohyun if they checked each other’s builds and ford combinations.
It was obvious what ending they’d et if they just charged in without even doing this.
“Hello! Please treat
well!”
“Yes, hello.”
The last person to appear was the lucky one who broke through competition of one in tens of thousands, ‘Gold Cries Golgol.’
He wore a mask due to privacy protection mode being applied, and judging by his voice, speech pattern, and body type, he seed to be a young man.
Of course, even that could be hidden through voice changers and avatar changes.
‘Nobody who cos to viewer participation goes that far to hide themselves.’
Privacy protection mode alone made it possible to hide one’s identity quite reliably.
Therefore, there was no reason for an ordinary civilian to employ various additional ans to hide their identity on top of that. Unless they were a criminal.
Besides, if they were such a person, they wouldn’t have participated in the first viewer participation content of ‘Hack Tour,’ which required appearing before tens of thousands of people.
-I should have been there!!
-If you’re Gold, be satisfied with your tier and yield ????
-Don’t you feel sorry for Bronze and Silver?!
-I’m Platinum but Bronze Silver is a bit much ??;
“As I said before, no bad words!”
“Haha! It’s fine. I understand everything! As one of the viewers myself, I know how it feels!”
‘Gold Cries Golgol’—Golgol for short—stopped Jeong Nayeon, who was trying to restrain increasingly bitter viewers before they went too far.
He defended them, saying he too had failed to enter viewer participation gas many tis, so he fully understood their feelings.
Naturally, the chat window began overflowing with praise like ‘magnanimous person’ or ‘great Gold guy.’ He reversed the atmosphere by not blocking them.
……Occasionally there were also things like ‘you think we care if you understand?’ but anyway.
“Let
check for a mont.”
“Yes! Please do as much as you’d like!”
Swoosh.
It was around then that Baek Woohyun, who had been listening to Golgol and Jeong Nayeon’s conversation from the side, intervened.
After simply obtaining Golgol’s permission, he reached out his hand, and the transparent threads that smoothly erged from his fingertips naturally wrapped around Golgol’s entire body.
Truly befitting the build na ‘Puppeteer,’ it was a sight of him handling a person-sized puppet nad Golgol.
“Whoa?!”
-Whoa is ????????
-I’m curious what it feels like to be controlled
-Physical control abilities aren’t easy to experience ???? Too few people use them
-Control
too!
Then Baek Woohyun finished his checks by controlling Golgol as he pleased, moving his arms and legs or making him jump in place.
The checks went very smoothly thanks to Golgol not resisting at all and complying with his control while being surprised by his body moving on its own.
At the end, despite not being a physical enhancent ability build, he threw punches several tis at a speed almost comparable to one.
Though Baek Woohyun’s expression, which had shown control unbelievable for moving soone else’s body this ti too, was puzzled.
“Hmm…”
“This is a really strange feeling. Oh, should I relax more than now? I saw you do it before in ‘Hack Disciple’!”
“No, it’s fine. You don’t need to do that.”
Baek Woohyun answered in a nonchalant manner to Golgol, who was blatantly appealing that he’d watched all the ‘Hack Disciple’ content too.
“The current build is a bit different from back then. This ti I excluded various buff effects and put power strictly into control only.”
“Ooh, I see!”
“So just following along as you are now is enough. You don’t need to use ability skills separately either. I can activate them.”
Baek Woohyun’s assertion was true.
In the past, against Awakeners with ability resistance, he could only guide them at a basic level, but now he could forcibly move them too.
In other words, if he set his mind to it, he could force movents according to his intentions into their bodies. You could call it perfect educational guidance.
“What build do you mainly use?”
“‘Rock Giant’ build!”
“‘Rock Giant’ build. Let’s see… Mm, not bad.”
Baek Woohyun nodded after checking the ‘Rock Giant’ build information.
Based on the correction system, the build consisting of one main attack skill, one ranged check skill, one defensive skill, and one ultimate was quite good.
The fact that it was a build made with relatively close combat in mind was also good for him. That could be called perfectly his specialty.
“Ready!”
“The one-in-several-hundred man! Ready to sortie!”
-Why is that several-hundred guy so funny ????????
-His energy was super high during the eting too lmao ????????
-These kinds of people make viewer participation fun
-Ah ???? His face isn’t revealed anyway so he can throw jokes freely ????
While Baek Woohyun was rolling Golgol this way and that, the opposing team, which had finished simple coordination under Cha Seongcheol’s guidance, approached confidently.
Led by the self-proclaid ‘one-in-several-hundred man,’ they exuded considerable confidence. The thought of ‘maybe we can win?’ showed in their movents everywhere.
It seed to be because the most fearso opponent, Baek Woohyun, wouldn’t directly participate in combat and would devote all his efforts only to assisting the viewer.
In reality, if Baek Woohyun stepped back like that, it would beco a 4-versus-5 structure, so their confidence wasn’t entirely groundless.
“Woohyun?”
“Good. We can start.”
“Okay. Then I’ll link the custom match right away!”
-Is it finally starting, my heart is pounding
-How many kills can the viewer participation team get
-Rather than the panel side, the viewer controlled by Hackphysical seems to be the problem ????
-Spoiler) Golgol goes crazy
