System ssages didnt lie.
It was a players common sense.
So it was hard to believe that Lee Hoyeol could see through [Stealth].
[Stealth (Master): Hide yourself in the surrounding environnt. The farther away you are from the other party, the less likely you are to be discovered.]
The stealth skill proficiency had reached mastery.
Not only that, the description clearly stated less likely?
Even if it was a dragon that lived at the top of the Zero Mountain. Unless they signaled their presence first, it would not be able to recognize their existence from a distance of several hundred ters or more.
Because the aggro system is a different field.
Their purpose was to gather information.
It wasnt a surprise attack or anything.
Of course, there was no hostility between them.
He shouldnt be able to notice
He had a lot of experience, so he couldnt understand it even more.
Then, a thought suddenly ca to him.
Maybe it was natural that he couldnt understand?
Dark Dragon.
Even the dragons wouldnt have noticed his presence.
Then if it was a greater being than a dragon.
If it was the Dark Dragon.
Its possible for him to see through Stealth!
And that Dark Dragon was right in front of him.
The mont he made that judgnt.
The man beca aware of what he was doing.
!
To think that he was following the Dark Dragon!
This was an unplanned developnt.
Furthermore, it was also a judgnt for the sake of the monarch.
If he faced Hoyeol like this.
The arrow will be directed to the Master, not to .
Nod
So the man signaled to the special force.
At this mont, they would make an operational retreat. Ignoring the Dark Dragons warning just to get information about the Great Alliance? It was not worth it.
Sss!
The man stepped back and sighed in relief.
And then he realized once again.
At this mont, it was not that he had saved his own life.
It was all thanks to the Dark Dragons generous rcy.
If it wasnt for him.
He would have been in the sa situation as the mbers he had lost contact with.
When he thought of them, he wondered of the possibility.
Its possible that Lee Hoyeol is involved in their disappearances
If it was Lee Hoyeol.
He would be able to overco the powerful people of Union in a short period of ti.
But the man imdiately shook his head.
Of course.
Werent his moves being broadcast to the world live?
Even just a little while ago.
He was surrounded by reporters and caras.
Even if Hoyeol manifested a portal and moved through it, the ti fra was not right.
Above all, Lee Hoyeol had no reason to contact the powerful figures of Union. It was easy tell just by looking at the decisive rcy shown to them.
He is not a person with ordinary abilities.
In other words, he was not soone who would carry out a behind-the-scenes operation.
Then who the hell is it?
He was suspicious of the Great Alliance when he saw that they had summoned troops.
But it was understandable if the reason was because of Lee Hoyeol.
It would be the natural duty of the retainers to greet the monarch with a grand welco.
Thanks to this, his thought process was left in limbo.
A vibration snapped the man to his senses.
Bzz!
!
Those who went missing.
As if nothing had happened.
They had calmly returned to the gathering place.
What the hell?
Rather than feeling disappointed because his efforts were useless, he just didnt understand.
Master had been away from Zero Mountain for the connector.
Even though they disobeyed Masters orders, they returned as if nothing happened.
As a Five Star, their behavior is inexcusable.
He wouldnt be able to completely fill Masters absence.
But, even if just a little bit.
On Masters behalf, he should hold them accountable for breaking the rules.
Move quickly.
The man and the special force headed to the gathering place.
Without knowing that the Shadow rcenary Corp was the culprit that they had been searching for so long.

Squeak!
A rat hurriedly disappeared into the grass.
To bring back my initial intention.
It doesnt an that your speaking style has to go back to that ti.
Through the surrounding reactions, I realized the ripple effect of my big mouth.
You will give an eternal night, thats truly an impressive expression.
Dont nod your head like youre thrilled, Hisagi.
Hey, who is the person taking notes over there?!
Damn it, I was already starting to regret choosing this cave.
WIth Grandfels personality, he would just left a complint about being good at writing.
Id rather not say that.
Lets turn a blind eye.
I averted my gaze as the ssage appeared.
[Small Champions Sanctuary Under the Mountain]
[Recomnded level: 850]
[Collapse rate: 100%]
Soone would ask.
Why did I suddenly talk about rats?
The reason was clear and simple.
The small champion of the ssage was referring to the rats.
Its shape is similar to a labyrinth.
Where Hisagi pointed, there was a rat hole in the grass.
It was not a taphor, there was really a rat hole where rats ca in and out.
I was wondering how he discovered sothing like this.
But I was convinced when I saw Hisagis snake eyes.
Indeed, snakes are also the natural enemies of rats.
Hisagi was not a real snake, though.
By the way, this body stopped even if only for a mont.
Grandfel took a pause.
It wasnt a common occurrence.
Of course, its not because Im scared.
Level 850.
Although it was a fairly high level, instead of feeling intimidated in the face of ruptures and monsters, I beca more upright.
His obsession with dress-up.
Wouldnt these clothes crumple when entering the small rat hole?
Grandfel must be concerned about that.
Yes, it had been a while since I felt his humanity and it felt nice
But isnt your direction of worries too different from other peoples?
Hisagi, who had no way of knowing what I was thinking, continued speaking.
However, as a cave, it has a unique system. The mont you enter, your body will shrink in size. Even a small rat would look like a monster several ters tall.
I had felt it in the [Sea of Lava] where I encountered the sirens, but the caves of Zero Mountain definitely had so tricky elents. In each cave, there was sothing that couldnt be conquered with levels alone.
Thats why experience is important.
My level was only the size of a drawing paper.
Depending on what you draw on the drawing paper through the experience, the result would also vary.
In that case.
It wont be a bad challenge for you.
Zero Mountain.
In particular, the experience in the cave would be a great nourishnt for the players. Of course, that included Lee Hoyeol. By the way, I couldnt believe I was able to quickly shake off hesitation because of Hisagis words.
If my body gets smaller, I wont have to whine about the rat hole.
There was no more fear for Granfel, who no longer had to worry about his clothes getting wrinkled.
Without hesitation, I headed towards the rat hole.
I stepped towards the entrance of the cave.
Hisagi followed and continued.
Thank you for trusting and choosing .
No, if anyone heard it, they would think I made an important choice.
The reason I chose Hisagis cave was simple.
Simply because the recomnded level was the highest.
But perhaps because he was infected with pride.
He gave great aning to every action.
Its like watching Grandfel, Hisagi
Sincerely, I would like to decline any more alter egos.
I swallowed my lant and stepped forward.
[Youve entered the Small Champions Sanctuary Under the Mountain.]
.
.
.
Squeak!
The rats cry was deafeningly loud.
As soon as I received the entry ssage, I realized that my body had beco smaller.
By the way.
It was not called a sanctuary for nothing. Perhaps because it was a sanctuary built up by rats. It was sowhat sloppy, but it definitely overflowed with a reverent atmosphere.
I guess the Holy Land of the Goddess Church, Muon, has this exact atmosphere.
How could I compare the rats sanctuary with the shrine of the Goddess Church?
Talim might feel upset if he heard it.
But it really had that atmosphere, so I couldnt help it.
Thats magnificent.
Above all, the huge scale overwheld the sloppiness.
The actual size was probably nothing special.
In my small field of vision, it looked much bigger.
Hisagi was ready to attack.
Leaving behind, who was busy evaluating the aesthetic.
Setting up a base camp and differentiating the roles of the first and second forces.
This was a systematic strategy.
As expected, I still lack a lot of things.
If I was just going to stick to playing solo like before, this knowledge would be unnecessary, but I ended up taking on the burden of not just a guild but also the Holy War Allied Force. As this experience accumulated, the day would co when I would be able to use it.
Having finished his preparations, Hisagi said.
Then I will begin to take action. If you see anything lacking, please feel free to scold , Commander Lee Hoyeol.
Ill scold you if I have the right to scold you.
As I said, I was not familiar with parties or guild-level attacks. I couldnt make use of Grandfels excellent setup because the player-style strategy was clearly different from Arcanas tactics.
But again, I talked shalessly.
Then Ill watch, Hisagi.
Of course, that didnt an I would just stand back.
Even if I struggled, I must control my pace.
To put it bluntly, as long as I didnt mind using cheap tricks, I could clear the recomnded level 850 by myself. However, what I needed to look ahead was not the one inch ahead, but the near future.
Because there is no point in going forward alone.
Experience point?
It was true that I needed to wear this jacket properly.
But it didnt have to be in this cave.
There were plenty of ways for to gain experience.
Because I can enter the Arcana Continent.
So, I planned to step forward when I needed to and watch when I needed to. I spoke grandly, but as I said, just watching them benefited .
However
As expected, it was an underground place that was not recomnded to anyone.
Starting with the dragons at the top.
Everything in the Zero Mountain couldnt be judged by the level alone.
The sa was true for the 100,000 caves.
Squeak!
Loud cries ca from all directions.
Soon.
Giant rats appeared.
Hisagi-san! At this rate, the formation will be aningless!
Of course, it was aningless.
Rats the size of a house ca from everywhere.
There would be no strategic benefit in distinguishing between the front line and the back line.
Hisagi shouted, raising his spear.
One point breakthrough!
It was a judgnt that made sense.
Defense or a scuffle in such an open space?
It would be like a suicide.
But no matter how I looked at it, it was imbalanced.
Squeak!
Energy rose from all over the sanctuary.
This was probably the ability of Small Champion, the boss mob of this cave.
Thanks to the sanctuary, the giant rats morale seed to have risen sharply.
Is this a ho team buff?
On the other hand, what was the situation on this side?
Hisagis current level was mid-500.
He was 300 levels behind the recomnded level of the cave.
It was difficult even for Hisagi who was a ranker, so it must be harder for others.
Knowing that fact.
Neither Hisagi nor the other two were able to enter.
In short, the Great Alliance entered the cave because they believed in my abilities.
In that case, in order to live up to their expectations.
I naturally had to give my all.
Of course, killing monsters wasnt always the best option, right?
As I said, what I needed was moderate pace control.
My role was as a director.
My purpose was to raise the morale of the away team so that they didnt lag behind the ho team[1]Ho team in Korean refers to the team that is playing at their ho venue, field, or stadium in a sports match or competition. The opposing side would be referred to as the away team or guest team. .
Then first of all.
What should I do with the annoying buffs?
There were two thods.
Either destroy the sanctuary and pour cold water on the ho team.
Or give the Great Alliance a buff as great as the sanctuary buff.
What option was the best?
I didnt ponder it for long.
What players desperately needed.
It was not about catching fish.
It was a way to catch fish.
Small Champion, was it?
It seed to reign like a god here.
We had a small but great being on our side too.
Haiel.
Yeah,
Now was the ti.
It was a suitable battlefield for Haiel to unleash her abilities specialized in auxiliary skills.
Soon, Haiel appeared in the air, answering my call.
But, wait a minute
Why are you so big, Haiel?!
I suddenly thought of sothing.
Not for the players, but for {unique spirit} Haiel.
The mont you entered, you beca smaller.
Was the cave system not applied to Haiel?
!!!
Thanks to this, Haiels already gorgeous and irregular appearance looked even more noble and majestic. A murmur was heard among the players.
However.
W-Wait a minute What is that?
The halo is so strong that I cant see her face clearly.
But, that kind of existence in Arcana.
N-No way Isnt she the Goddess?!
Whaaat!?
No way, Haiel
The Arcana Continent, the largest religion.
Are you mistaking her for the Goddess of the Church?
Even if you cant see her face, saying shes the Goddess is too much.
By the way, why are you just listening, Haiel?
Even if youre Grandfels alter ego.
You dont need to be overly shaless.
No, what is that goddess-like gentle smile?!
