Chapter 182: Recruitnt Announcent
[**【Lord of Storms】 Raid has been opened!**]
[[Server maintenance for updates will begin in 5 minutes. We ask all users currently enjoying ‘Reverse Planet’ to log out in a safe location]]
“Wow···!”
“Oh!”
“Finally, a new raid opening update!”
-New raid dropped????????
-Kia~ This is it~~
-Server maintenance world ssage????
-Insane????????
‘Anonymous Viewer 62’ donated ‘1,000,000 won’!
[^^]
‘D_US’ donated ‘1,000,000 won’!

“Whoa!”
“What is this?!”
-Two million won just like that????
-Burning a million won just to send a smiley face?
-Two million won with two spacebar presses ????;;
-Chairn, it won’t even be an inconvenience, so please just buy us one ice cream
Jeong Nayeon, Chloe, and Cha Seongcheol, who had been watching the system ssages appearing before Baek Woohyun together, let out gasps of admiration. They had inwardly expected this to happen, but rely expecting sothing and actually seeing it evoked different feelings.
Especially since not only was a new PVE content—a new raid—unveiled, but even that rare world ssage appeared.
The viewers seed to share similar impressions, as the chat went wild and donations exceeding two million won poured in.
“···Ahem, but with this much, I think I can say this definitively.”
-?
-What are you going to say now
-Gasp! Could it be!
-The ti I’ve been hiding has passed~
After so ti passed and the atmosphere cald down sowhat.
Cha Seongcheol, who had cleared his throat and gathered attention, spoke in a calm tone. Of course, the playful viewers imdiately tried to derail him, but he brushed that aside and his eyes glead with an utterly serious expression.
“Wasn’t there a lot of talk last ti about the pet system update? About whether it actually originated from Hackphysical’s story.”
-???? There was
-They just said it might be and got labeled as hack fanboys
-But honestly the circumstantial evidence was too clear????
-????????
It wasn’t the first ti sothing new was discovered while Baek Woohyun was progressing through PVE story and server maintenance was conducted to update it. Previously, ‘pets’—an elent that hadn’t existed in ‘Reverse Planet’ before—were discovered and server maintenance was conducted at the sa ti.
Back then, as Cha Seongcheol said, opinions were divided and there was quite a commotion. The circumstances seed plausible in many ways, but people questioned whether it could really be true.
“As the ‘Hack Tour’ content panel, we naturally leaned toward the theory that server maintenance and updates occurred because Hackphysical was progressing through the story, but···.”
“Because he got the 『Lightning Wolf』 as a pet, the pet system was updated! You can clearly see the cause and effect!”
“···Haha. We thought that way. Unfortunately, we couldn’t give a definitive answer. After all, there was a possibility it was just a lucky coincidence.”
-Would’ve just gotten torn apart if you’d said it
-Because not all the hack haters had died yet ????
-Amazing fact) Even now hack haters are desperately surviving saying Hackphysical is a bubble
-Haters really are brainless
‘????’ donated ‘1000 won’!
[Hackphysical is a bubble though???? ‘Unbelievable’]
However, as Cha Seongcheol had suggested, things were different now. He could say it definitively. That the pet system update also originated from Baek Woohyun’s play.
Because when Baek Woohyun opened the 【Lord of Storms】 raid, just like with the pet system update, a server maintenance notification world ssage appeared.
Even if you dismissed it as coincidence once, the sa thing happening twice made denying it even less convincing.
“It’s different now. The second one appeared. The sa thing—new elent discovered followed by server maintenance world ssage? Ga over. Lock them all up!”
-Who are you going to lock up ????????????
-It’s about ti even the hack haters admitted it
-???? They’ll definitely co up with so weird logic
-Wait so does that an the faster Hackphysical’s story progresses, the faster updates co?????
“Hmm?”
Cha Seongcheol, reading the chat from one viewer, narrowed his brow with a contemplative expression. It was an interesting enough question to warrant that.
So many major developnts had co one after another that he hadn’t thought about the future, but it certainly seed quite possible.
Wasn’t there a famous saying? ‘Sothing that happens once may never happen again. But sothing that happens twice will definitely happen again.’
“Whether updates speed up according to Hackphysical’s story, huh···. That’s a question I never even imagined. What do you two think?”
“Hmm···. Perhaps···?”
“Of course it would, right?!”
-What more could they even update
-Maybe they’ll go straight to the next raid?
-No way ???????? …Or maybe?
-Fact is Hack Tour can torture the developers ????
‘Story Enthusiast’ donated ‘1000 won’!
[Am I the only one concerned about the otherworld the doppelganger ntioned? Doesn’t this an sothing bigger than a raid is coming?]
“Ah, right! There was the otherworld too! They said sothing about connecting passages, or it was already open!”
“Oh! Could the next story progress with them invading from Earth to the otherworld? Like unveiling an entirely new region?”
While the panelists and viewers chatted about all sorts of topics, Baek Woohyun, having exited ‘Reverse Planet’, entered the studio. With so much to consider, his face was sowhat heavier than usual.
It would be difficult for anyone but Jeong Nayeon to tell, but that’s how it was. Well, it was inevitable—the uncomfortable topic of ‘otherworld’ had suddenly been thrown at him when he’d only been focused on the raid.
“Ah, you’re here! Hackphysical! Good work!”
“Good job, Woohyun!”
“Good work!”
“···Yes. Good work to all of you too.”
-Hack ha~
-Ended it great today too
-When will you do the raid!!
-Now that Hackphysical’s here the broadcast will end, sha
“The broadcast isn’t over yet?”
“No! We’re still going!”
At Baek Woohyun’s question, Cha Seongcheol nodded. It was an extrely prompt answer, as if worried Baek Woohyun might mistakenly think the broadcast had ended and make so error.
“Perfect. Then I’d like to make one announcent on the broadcast, if that’s okay?”
“Of course! Absolutely fine!”
“Of course!”
To Baek Woohyun’s request for permission, Cha Seongcheol and Chloe readily agreed. After all, the ‘Hack Tour’ content was, by nature, programming and broadcasting created for Baek Woohyun.
As long as it wasn’t sothing bizarre that couldn’t be shown on broadcast, they could give him as much ti as he needed.
“An announcent at this ti— ah, could it be?”
“Right. That.”
When Jeong Nayeon sent him a look asking if her guess was correct, Baek Woohyun answered lightly. Her guess was right.
Now that the unveiling of new raid content was imminent, he planned to publicly announce what he’d been conducting alone since the SSR Cup.
Naly, recruitnt for the 【Lord of Storms】 raid party.
“Starting now, I’ll be conducting recruitnt for the 【Lord of Storms】 raid party.”
-Knew it????????
-A raid party is essential for raids obviously????????
-???? Going straight to apply right now
-Even so, applying is; Ban the guy above please

The full opening of the 【Lord of Storms】 raid. And Baek Woohyun’s raid party recruitnt on top of that.
The impact of these two major pieces of news hit the ‘Reverse Planet’ community deep and hard. It was an entirely natural result, given that all users couldn’t play ‘Reverse Planet’ due to server maintenance anyway.
All they could do was check the community, so when everyone added their two cents and chattered away, it inevitably beca a hot topic.
⊙ It’s a public raid anyway, why all the fuss?
(Picture of a green frog with many question marks)
It’s not a first clear raid, just a public raid
Why all the fuss about it? Really don’t get it
-This guy really doesn’t know
??[Author] Really don’t know;; Tell
??(Well you see··· con)
??[Author] ???? Bastard!
-Tsk tsk··· Should I tell you?
??[Author] ???? Tell
??(Well you see··· con)
??????????????
So people who didn’t know about Baek Woohyun or the ‘Hack Tour’ content wondered why there was such a fuss over just a ‘public raid.’ And understandably so—public raids conducted in story mode had low difficulty and weren’t even recognized as first clears.
The image public raids had held until now was just a show conducted to reveal raid chanics at best.
⊙ To the guy who asked why all the fuss about a public raid earlier
I’ll tell you why ????
At Hackphysical difficulty it’s not a public raid, that’s why
You know story difficulty varies according to compensation percentage, right?
Lower is harder, higher is easier
But what’s Hackphysical’s compensation percentage?
“0 percent”
The public raid difficulty is hell
Might be the hardest of all existing raids
-Ah so that’s why ???????? Finally understood
??(Well you see··· con)
??Don’t put that con on my comnt, you’ll die
-Saw a difficulty calculation posted on Reverse Ti, it might be harder than mythic difficulty
??[Author] ????? That’s insane ????????????
-Basically clearing this is the sa as a first clear
??Even a first clear you can only do once ????
??Mythic difficulty first clear ???? We did a Hackphysical difficulty first clear!
However, Baek Woohyun’s 【Lord of Storms】 public raid, as the previous post showed, existed in an entirely different realm from previous public raids.
Wasn’t his story difficulty commonly called hell difficulty? A difficulty with absolutely no compensation that only he could attempt.
If a public raid was conducted at that difficulty—also called Hackphysical difficulty—it was hard to even imagine how difficult it would be.
That’s why so many ‘Reverse Planet’ users were chattering about who should be party mbers and who wasn’t skilled enough.
‘This is a chance! A real chance!’
‘If I can just participate sohow!’
Of course, no matter how difficult it was, there were plenty willing to try. Especially amateur broadcasters confident in their skills.
For them, Baek Woohyun’s raid party recruitnt announcent was truly a golden rope—no, a diamond rope—descending from heaven.
The ultimate rope with the possibility of ascending to the heavens if they could just grab it!
The ‘Hack Tour’ content was currently the hottest ‘Reverse Planet’-related content in Korea, with its na known even overseas across the sea. Ten-million-subscriber iTuber Chloe Martinez was a panelist right now, and ‘Hack Tour’-related videos regularly appeared on her iTube channel.
On ‘Raddy It,’ the largest Western community, posts about Mr. Cheater could easily be found.
”Chance of a lifeti!”
It wasn’t unreasonable for many to think that way. Because it actually was, without exaggeration.
