The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player Chapter 38

38. End of round 3

★ 3rd round results tally ★

[All areas]

└1st place. Kill 3,631 Black Scythes (Lv30 Reaper)

└2nd place. Defeat 982 poop idiots (Lv13 Shaman)

└3rd place. Kill 963 Heavenly Horses (Lv13 Dark Knight)

[Applicable area ESKS45-5]

└1st place. Kill 3,631 Black Scythes (Lv30 Reaper)

└2nd place. Ahn Sang-cheol (Lv11 Knight) Kill 687

└3rd place. Seo A-rin (Lv11 Summoner) Kill 576

It was no surprise that people were surprised by the tally results.

“Black Scythe alone caught 3,600 fish?”

“Second place didn’t even catch a thousand fish at most?”

It was naturally expected that the Black Scythe would be first.

But I never imagined that I would catch this much.

furthermore.

“Look at your level. 30?”

“Wow… that’s crazy.”

“Did you get an experience bonus or something?”

Everyone clicked their tongues at the overwhelming level difference.

Except for Ryu Min, the person involved.

‘It is true that I received an experience buff. Unless you finish first in the entire district, I don’t even know if such a thing exists.’

First place in all regions will receive a special reward selection box.

The triple experience benefit can only be obtained by opening the box.

‘Second and third place in all districts receive much lower rewards. Not to mention the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in the respective districts.’

Still, it is better to be in the top 3 and receive additional compensation.

There is a clear difference in growth speed.

‘Plus, since the growth is high, there is a high possibility of being in the top 3 in the next round.’

As rewards accumulate, they grow like a snowball, and eventually become a different player from other players.

‘That’s why being ranked is important.’

Sure enough, [Cheonma] Ma Gyeong-rok was in the top 3 of the rankings this time.

[Shit idiots] were the same way.

‘That idiot is quite talented.’

Is it easy to get ranked if you have psychopathic traits?

While I was thinking about that, a message came to mind.

[congratulations! You have completed the quest as first place in the area!]

[congratulations! [You have completed the quest as first place in the entire district!]

[Currently, ‘Black Scythe’ is ranked 1st in the entire region and 1st in the region.]

[A ‘mid-level rare ring selection’ will be given as a reward for ranking first in the area!]

[A ‘Special Reward Selection Box’ will be given as a reward for ranking first in all areas!]

‘You’ve been given the option to choose an intermediate ring.’

The rewards received vary depending on the player’s level.

‘If another player had gotten first place, he would have received a lower rank.’

Ryumin, who confirmed that the reward had arrived, used it immediately.

[You can choose one of the following rare rings.]

[Please touch the reward you want.]

└ 1. Ring of Swift Wind

└ 2. Blue magic ring

└ 3. Ring of Resistance

Ryumin’s fingers moved without hesitation.

‘Choose ring of resistance number 3.’

[Ring of Resistance]

– Category: Ring

-Grade: Rare

-Effect: Luck +4, Resistance +35%

-Durability: 450/450

-Restrictions on use: Regular grade or higher

-Description: A ring that has resistance to status abnormalities.

For items given as a choice, information cannot be confirmed in advance.

‘You have to guess what kind of item it is just based on the name.’

I don’t know, but there will be very few people who choose the Ring of Resistance.

Just looking at the name made him look weak.

However, resistance could be said to be essential for survival.

‘If you are affected by a status abnormality, there is no answer.’

There are numerous abnormalities in the system.

Stun, root, sleep, fear, silence, freeze, bleed, burn, blind, slow, weaken, etc.

‘There are monsters that cause status abnormalities, and there are also cases that attach to the player’s skills.’

I’m not sure yet, but as the rounds progress, there will be more things to encounter.

And you will realize.

‘How important is resistance to survival?’

No matter how high your stats are, if you suffer from a status abnormality, you are dead.

Additionally, resistance cannot be raised through stats.

There are not many items with options.

In other words, it means that it is difficult to obtain.

‘Even if you don’t use it right away, it’s better to have it.’

It also increases your luck stat, so you should wear it.

Ryumin next used the special reward selection box.

‘There will be no 3x experience buff this time.’

just as expected.

[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]

[Please touch the reward you want.]

└ 1. Stat 50% increase buff (4 rounds only)

└ 2. 4,000 gold

└ 3. Information about round 4

There is no 3x experience buff that was always on the list.

In other words, there is no need to catch monsters.

It actually did.

‘Because the goal of round 4 is not to kill monsters.’

However, there is no need for a stat increase buff as an alternative.

Ryumin moved his fingers without hesitation.

‘No. 2, choose gold.’

As soon as I made my choice, 4,000 gold was in my hand.

There was no other choice.

[Now, humans? Did you check your ranking through a message? The cutoff line is 1,225th place.]

“Oh, angel! Wait a minute! There’s something wrong with this!”

“It looks like the system miscalculated! Please check!”

“That’s right. I’ve caught so many, but there’s no way my ranking is this low….”

Although players who did not make it to the rankings protested.

[Then, we will exterminate the bugs that did not make it to the top 1,225.]

Olive went extinct without any fuss.

With an evil smile that doesn’t match his appearance.

Passsss-

Of the 2,400 people who survived the wave, nearly half perished.

◀ End of ROUND 3 ▶

[All areas]

└Survivors: 214,007,550

[Applicable area ESKS45-5]

└Survivors: 1,225

[After a while, the soul is transferred to the body in the existing dimension.]

[Round 4 begins at midnight on April 1, 2022. Well then, see you in the next round. Congratulations on your survival.]

* * *

“hot!”

Seo A-rin opened her eyes and checked her surroundings.

‘I’m back. ‘I survived the third round.’

Is it just survival?

He even had a job as a summoner.

As I remembered, I used the skill again.

‘Summon a fairy.’

A small fairy appears with light and twinkles and wanders around.

It was a summon that applied a protective shield.

Even though I don’t have combat skills, I was able to safely beat the 5th wave thanks to this.

‘It was also big that the bodyguard drew attention from the side.’

I’ll have to say thank you later.

This wasn’t the only thing I was happy about.

We even achieved a record worthy of being ranked 3rd in the district rankings.

‘I can’t believe I’m ranked 3rd… … .’

Although it is a district ranking, a nickname is listed for the first time.

I also received a reward called a purple magic stone.

Seo A-rin took out the magic gem and looked at it as if she was curious.

‘Will Black Scythe like it if I give it to him?’

I don’t know what it’s used for, but since I received it as a reward, it must be useful.

I put the magic gem back into my inventory.

I was planning on going to the 4th round to find the black scythe and give it to him in return.

‘You should like it… … .’

What if you don’t like it?

What should I give you then?

‘I have to give you something. I think that way I will feel at ease.’

Seo A-rin was able to give even more to the benefactor who saved her life.

* * *

As soon as he returned to reality, what Hwang Yong-min did was to open the status window.

[Penalty is in effect.]

[All stats are permanently reduced by 50%.]

As always, the stats are cut in half.

‘ah… … ‘f*ck you.’

Regret appeared on Hwang Yongmin’s face.

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have ordered the relics to be destroyed.

At that time, my cell phone vibrated.

When I looked at the sender, it turned out to be a friend of Iljin.

“Uh, Seunghan.”

-Hey, are you crazy?

“What are you talking about?”

-Do you see this kid acting like a fool? Don’t you know that we’re all screwed because of you?

My friend’s voice was shaking with anger.

-How can you dominate your friends with leadership? Are you a human bastard?

“Hey! It was an unavoidable situation. If I didn’t do it, I could have been killed by the black scythe.”

-Why didn’t you just die?

“what?”

-He said that if he wanted to avoid his friends, he would go out and search for them.

“Hey! I feel unfair too, f*ck! My stats went down just because I was the district representative!”

-Are you the only one who fell? We were even taken advantage of by our friend.

“…….”

-If you hadn’t been greedy for the district representative in the first place, this wouldn’t have happened, you traitorous bastard.

Hwang Yong-min, who was speechless, remained silent.

-pup. You’re not even a real friend.

“hey…….”

-Do not contact me in the future. Don’t pretend to know whether it’s reality or another world. If I see your face, I might get so angry that I might kill you.

With those words, the phone hung up.

Looks quite pissed off.

‘Did I do that wrong? f*ck, I’m a victim too.’

It was unfair, but I still had to let go of my anger.

With that in mind, I tried to contact another friend, but he didn’t answer.

When I looked at CocoaTalk, I saw that I had been expelled from the group chat.

“Wow… these bastards don’t even care to listen to me and just abandon me mercilessly.”

A friend who doesn’t even understand you.

At that moment, ridicule came out of my mouth.

‘friend? There’s no need for that. ‘I live my life alone anyway.’

Although I was abandoned by my friends, I was not lonely.

Rather, his eyes were burning with anger.

‘what? If you see his face, he might get so angry that he might kill you? ‘Some idiot wants to try it with me?’

Hwang Yong-min made a promise to himself.

‘Okay, just try to meet next time. ‘I’ll kill them all.’

He decides to take revenge when he sees his friends.

* * *

“Nice to meet you, Director Ahn. You survived this time too.”

As the owner, Ma Gyeong-rok, spoke with a smile, Ahn Sang-cheol stroked the back of his head in embarrassment.

“I was lucky, haha.”

“The third round must have been a little difficult. Was it okay?”

“Yes. Because it was a weakened monster, there wasn’t much difficulty.”

“Do you have a job? What is your current level?”

“I’m 11. My job was as a knight.”

“A knight… it’s a really cool job.”

“For your information, Seo A-rin is also at the same level. Although her occupation is different as she is a summoner.”

“Summoner?”

Ma Gyeong-rok responded that it exceeded expectations.

“That’s amazing. It doesn’t seem like a common job.”

“I was surprised too. He changed his job and summoned a fairy. He put a protective shield on me and thanks to that, I was able to hunt safely.”

“That’s great. Just maintain a close relationship with the actor like you are now. If you like it, you can date him.”

“Dating, what are you talking about….”

“I’m saying this because it’s easy to find out your weaknesses when you’re in a relationship. I’m not saying that you should date her seriously.”

“ah…….”

Even when he was told to take advantage of his weaknesses, Ahn Sang-cheol did not think it was a big deal.

Because I have carried out even more severe orders.

“Shall we date?”

“Hahaha! It’s been a while since I’ve seen Director Ahn so embarrassed. If you’re in trouble, there’s no need to be like that.”

“Ah… yes.”

Ahn Sang-cheol breathed a sigh of relief.

“I don’t think Seo A-rin has feelings for me anyway.”

“Why, Director Ahn is so dependable and manly.”

“They still always address me with the courtesy of ‘bodyguard.’”

“Is that so?”

Ma Gyeong-rok shook his whiskey and laughed.

Making fun of Ahn Sang-cheol is one of my small hobbies.

“Anyway, what is this urgent report?”

“ah……!”

Ahn Sang-cheol, who remembered it later, bowed his head first.

“Let me first say I’m sorry.”

“why?”

“I failed to carry out the order to provide help to the Black Scythe. I also failed to convey the representative’s message.”

“Really? There must be a reason, right?”

Ahn Sang-cheol, who was nodding, reported in detail the activities of the Black Scythe.

Ma Gyeong-rok was not surprised when he was told that he did not need help because he was so overwhelmed that he could block the entrance on his own.

Because I was guessing based on the tally of 3,631 animals.

However, when Ma Gyeong-rok was told that a side quest had emerged because the artifact was broken, Ma Gyeong-rok could not help but be surprised.

“The sub-quest comes from breaking the relic? Our district protected the relic and received 2,000 gold as a reward?”

“Yes. It was a quest to survive for 30 minutes from a being called the Agent of Heavenly Punishment….”

Ma Gyeong-rok’s eyes widened when he said that the black scythe actually killed him.

“He sounds like a strong guy, but you killed him?”

“Yes. I defeated it with overwhelming skill, as if I knew the strategy.”

“…….”

I could tell just by looking at the aggregate results that I was level 30.

How majestic is the black scythe?

‘It’s almost ridiculous that I first got the Black Knight’s rune and thought it was a fraud.’

Because there were people whose very existence was a fraud.

“The Black Scythe did not need help in the first place. Even if I washed my eyes and looked for it, there was nothing I could do to help it.”

“I understand.”

Ma Gyeong-rok shook his head.

If the black scythe was that strong, Director Ahn would never have stepped forward.

‘Black scythe. If I get the chance, I’d like to meet you.’

It would be nice to know the true identity of reality, but there is no way to know.

However, you can’t even see it in this world.

It was just a shame that the areas were different.

“There is a reason, so I won’t hold you responsible.”

“I’m sorry.”

“by the way…….”

When it comes to the identity of reality, there are some people that come to mind.

“What were the results of tracking down those scoundrels?”

It was none other than Hwang Yong-min’s group.
