Chapter 8
"There are more people here."
Arriving at the harbor, Hanbit looked at the bustling crowd.
The crowd was several tis larger than when he first logged in.
"I told you, it spread all over the community in a day. There will probably be even more people."
-RP related businesses are flocking here.
-It's annoying to see them swarming around;
-But no one has cleared it yet. lol
The viewers' chats were sharp.
Businesses that make money with all kinds of things related to RP.
It was because their perception was not good in many ways.
Hanbit, looking around, asked Yeonwoo, "Do you have so gold?"
"I do, a little. I even made so microtransactions."
"Really? Then are you strong?"
"Nah, not even close. There's a limit even if you spend money."
Since cash transactions were active in RP, the currency was also fluid.
Of course, does that an you can beco incredibly strong by pouring money into it?
That wasn't the case either.
"You're saying it's no use even with high-rank items?"
"Item rank is important, but rank is absolute. To overco this difference, you need to have at least Hero-rank or higher."
Level and stats are basically involved in the criteria for equipping items.
No matter how much money you spend, you can't go beyond the current level of rank.
"How much is Hero-rank?"
"Looking at recent transactions... a rank 5 Hero sword was sold for 100 million won."
"...100 million?"
His eyes widened at the unbelievable price.
Hanbit recalled the item grade explanation again.
[Normal-Advanced-Rare-Hero-Unique-Epic-Legendary-Mythical]
'It's the fourth one, and it's 100 million won?'
Even though it's rank 5, the grade was closer to the middle.
It was too surprising that such an item was traded for a huge amount of 100 million won.
Questions about other grades sprang up in Hanbit's mind.
"How much is Unique grade and above?"
"There are no items for sale there. It's better for the advanced party to use them themselves."
Unique, Epic, Legendary, and Mythical ranks higher than Heroic.
As the nas were unusual, they seed to be quite precious.
Recalling the treasures in his mory, Hanbit asked another question.
"Are there no classes?"
"There is no class system, and usually people are classified according to their skills. Weapons are also worn accordingly."
-Are you really a newbie? lol
-You're so bad at living up to your nickna;
-There's no class system, but we just call ourselves that. lol
-So I'm a warrior, but I carry a staff. It's so much fun to only use basic attacks.
-Are you a pervert?
This system was sowhat similar to the world in his mory.
Even there, it felt like classes were divided according to detailed skills.
The difference was that you could use weapons relatively freely.
Although it wasn't easy to use archery with a sword.
"Anyway, you have so to spare, right? Can you lend 70,000 gold?"
"Of course, but does a fishing rod cost 70,000 gold?"
"It's worth the price."
"...I don't know what it is, but I'll give it to you for now."
[Player Roper has requested a trade.]
[Do you accept? (Yes/No)]
Hanbit imdiately pressed 'Yes' on the trade window that appeared.
It was a typical ga-like system, so it was strangely refreshing.
Tring-
[You have received 70,000 gold.]
'This should be enough.'
The currency unit in this different world ga.
Hanbit, who occasionally glanced around, checked the prices of items sold in stores and stalls in the city.
Fortunately, the value of the goods had not changed, so it was not difficult to convert the currency.
"I'll pay you back soon."
"Eh, it's fine."
The two of them continued walking while conversing.
Soon they arrived at a low cliff on the outskirts of the harbor.
There, a fisherman was looking out at the sea.
[Fisherman Eldrock]
A familiar na appeared above his head.
Hanbit approached and spoke to him.
"Old man."
"Hmm?"
The old man opened his eyes slightly.
Next to the mat he was sitting on, there were over 10 fishing rods laid out.
"I want to buy one of these."
"What? There was an accident?"
"I know you can hear . I'll give you 50,000 gold, so please sell one."
-Black Dragon...
-Attacking the elderly.
-He said he can't hear well;
-This is a bit...
Perhaps it seed rude, as viewers started throwing out criticisms one by one.
However, the old man's expression changed in an instant.
"50,000 gold? No way. You have to give 100,000."
-Old man?
-We were fooled;
The viewers were taken aback when he revealed his true self.
Fisherman Eldrock.
Hanbit knew how much this old man loved money.
"100,000 won't do. Let's make it 60,000."
"That's not even the cost price. Make it 90,000."
"Then let's make it 50,000."
"This kid? Does he think I'm an old man who can't even count!"
The price war that started proceeded at a rapid pace.
In the end, Hanbit was the victor.
"Here's 70,000 gold."
"This young lad is sly..."
The old man's appearance as he shook his head as if he was fed up was exactly the sa as he rembered.
Back then, they had even exchanged insults while learning to fish.
"Take it quickly and get the hell out!"
"Yes, thank you. I'll co again."
"Don't co!"
Leaving the old man who was throwing a tantrum behind, Hanbit left.
In his hand was an iron fishing rod.
[Modified Fishing Rod]
Rank: 1
Grade: Advanced
Description: A fishing rod that has been modified by adding a special device. It's uncertain whether the condition of the fish caught will be good.
Briefly summarized item information.
Yeonwoo, who was looking at it, asked, "What is this? A modified fishing rod?"
"It has one added function. That old man from earlier is really serious about fishing."
The job of the old man who made this was, after all, fishing.
It was an item he made out of frustration with fish that wouldn't get caught.
"So you're saying you're going to catch the Bomb Sli with this?"
"To be precise, I'm going to fish it."
Turning his head, Hanbit looked in the direction where the forest was visible.
Then, shouldering the fishing rod, he said.
"Let's go."
* * *
"No matter how much I think about it, I think I brought you along for good reason."
The mountain near Edlen.
Yeonwoo, climbing the sloped path, nodded his head and spoke to himself.
"What are you talking about out of the blue?"
"Where else would there be soone who fishes monsters in the forest with a fishing rod? You're fully qualified to be a clown. You're perfect for streaming."
"..."
-Kekekekeke
-Passing the clown audition.
-Passing from the nickna alone.
-Failing with the face.
-He's needlessly handso for the character, really.
-Let's change it to an orc.
-That's a bit much;
Viewers agreed with Yeonwoo's opinion.
Hanbit didn't agree with the clown part, but the steam itself was more interesting than he had thought.
Perhaps it was because he didn't have the weight of responsibility yet.
'It should be visible soon.'
Shaking off his distracting thoughts, Hanbit carefully examined the forest.
When he walked a little further, he ca to a cliff where the mountain path abruptly ended.
'This is perfect.'
Hanbit nodded his head in satisfaction after examining the terrain.
"Is this the place?"
Yeonwoo, who was following behind, asked, looking around.
Quickly pulling his arm, Hanbit said quietly, "Don't raise your voice. It might run away."
"Hyung, you know what a Bomb Sli is, right? Running away isn't the problem."
-Lol fr
-Should just call it a bomb, excluding the sli part.
-It explodes even if you touch it from afar.
-No, it explodes even if you make eye contact with it.
-A real tofu minded monster.
-A useless goat that gives neither materials nor experience points.
[Bomb Sli has donated 1,000 won.]
[Yeah, it's over when I explode~]
Perhaps because the monster was infamous even among the viewers, the chat window sped up.
The Bomb Sli, which explodes no matter how carefully you try to catch it.
Indeed, its unique characteristic seed to be the sa here as well.
"I know. It's a tricky one."
"It's beyond tricky; you can't even get materials from it. That's why no one has been able to clear the quest yet."
"That's because the hunting thod is unique. If you catch it properly, it cos out."
"But..."
Yeonwoo tried to say sothing but closed his mouth.
Co to think of it, there was no need to question Hanbit's actions.
He was a person who would sotis say silly things, but he was different here.
Should he say that whatever he said, it wasn't nonsense and he showed results?
Aside from reading web novels, he was originally a person who was well-versed in unusual things.
"Okay. I'll quietly focus on filming. Show sothing interesting."
"What fun."
Hanbit gave a hollow laugh at the strange expectation.
He didn't have any talent in that area, after all.
Right now, he was just focused on the goal at hand.
"Hmm."
Hanbit approached the cliff and looked down.
The height was about 4 ters.
It was the perfect spot for fishing.
"Found it."
[Bomb Sli (Lv.1)]
He spied a single dark brown sli a little distance away.
Seeing it like this made him feel a bit pleased.
Whirr-
Hanbit lightly wound and unwound the fishing rod's line.
It explodes just by looking at it, explodes even if you touch it, and has the eccentric characteristic of not even leaving behind materials.
However, there was a small error in that information.
Slide-
The sli started moving slowly.
Another Bomb Sli wriggled around it.
Hanbit moved his position little by little, waiting for them to gather together.
'...I need to get used to the sensitivity.'
Even though virtual reality is a scientific revolution, it is different from the actual body.
That sense of incongruity hindered detailed movents.
'But it's like this because it's level 2.'
He could guess the reason.
The 1 million won level 1 gear and the 5 million won level 2 gear.
Just by looking at the price, he could feel the difference in performance.
He was just grateful to Yeonwoo for giving him such an expensive gift.
Tring-
[Cuckoo has donated 1,000 won.]
[Breaking news. Those bastards with no conscience are entering the forest.]
The content of the ssage popped up with the alarm.
Yeonwoo, who was concentrating with him, frowned as if on guard.
'They ca at a good ti.'
Hanbit, who had anticipated this early on, wasn't fazed at all.
He had noticed the group following from afar since they left the city.
Since the stream was on, it wouldn't have been strange for a few people to be attached to them.
"Hyung, what are you going to do? It doesn't seem like there are only one or two."
"Yeah, that's a big deal," Hanbit, replying soullessly, turned his gaze to the forest.
Bushes rustling here and there.
Among them, one group was quite fast.
Rustle-
The footsteps of those ahead slowed down little by little.
Perhaps they were trying to observe the situation through the stream.
'Should I surprise them a bit?'
A fun thought suddenly occurred to Hanbit.
He moved his finger to the system window and said, "I'll turn off the stream for a mont."
