49. Compilation of 4th round results
“Haha, haha.”
Seo A-rin took a deep breath.
“Arin, are you having a hard time?”
“Ha, Gwae, it’s okay. Actually, it’s more mental than physical….”
Ahn Sang-cheol nodded as if he understood.
The scene of them fighting each other with blood splattered was so spectacular that it was difficult to watch.
If there is hell, I wonder if it would be like this.
Because it was already a pure white space, it seemed even more stimulating.
It wasn’t a scene from a B-grade gore movie.
It was a reality that was actually happening.
Well, he was able to endure to a certain extent, but the problem is Seo A-rin.
‘There’s still an hour left until the end, but I wonder if I can hold out.’
Ahn Sang-cheol was worried about Seo A-rin’s mental state.
She is Ma Gyeong-rok’s business item and property.
If my sanity is causing problems to my business, I don’t want to see the CEO.
“I’m dying!”
“Where?”
Ahn Sang-cheol swung his sword at the gunman targeting Seo A-rin.
Cheaeng-!
After knocking the guy’s weapon away, I cut his shoulder.
The guy’s upper body was completely exposed.
“Mr. Arin!”
As he shouted urgently, Seo A-rin bit her lip tightly and thrust out her sword.
Phew!
The sword pierced right through the heart.
The trembling monster fell limp.
Ahn Sang-cheol looked at this with satisfaction.
‘Still, when I’m told, I’m good at doing what I’m told.’
If he neutralized his opponent, he had Seo A-rin finish him off.
‘Because Seo A-rin, who has no fighting ability, will not be able to survive if she does not do anything like this.’
It’s literally like being spoon-fed.
Still, her summons apply a protective shield, so it’s not like she’s helping for free.
“Ugh.”
When Seo A-rin was pulling out her sword with a horrified look on her face.
“Yaaaaaa!”
Another gunman appeared next to me.
Grab it!
After exchanging blows a few times, Ahn Sang-cheol pulled out his sword and cut his wrist.
“Ahh!”
At this point, I decided to cut his forearm and then slit his opponent’s neck.
‘You can’t just give it away. If I want to survive, I also have to set a record.’
Natural movement like flowing water.
The swordsmanship runes he received while becoming a knight made Ahn Sang-cheol a skilled swordsman.
Seo A-rin whined, took out her sword, and asked with a frown on her face.
“Bodyguard… How long will we have to fight like this…?”
“We still have one more hour to fight.”
“It’s so hard for me to even look at it… I don’t know why everyone is killing and killing like this.”
Although Seo A-rin clearly looked exhausted, she did not feel any sympathy.
‘Weak, weak. ‘Is this a flower in a greenhouse?’
It just feels pathetic.
Ahn Sang-cheol said, hiding his true feelings.
“If you’re tired, rest now. Didn’t you kill 50 people?”
“Maybe…”
“That should be enough to get you ranked. Leave the rest to me.”
“Thank you… really.”
‘Thank you.’
In fact, I was more grateful to myself.
It was an opportunity to set a record that I couldn’t achieve because I was spoon-fed.
Ahn Sang-cheol stood guard while holding his sword.
Even if you just stay still, people steeped in madness will attack you.
“come.”
Ahn Sang-cheol’s sword drew a graceful curve.

[Time remaining until round end: 00:10:21]
‘It’s almost time for this to end.’
Ryumin, who was looking at the progress window, swung his sickle sharply.
Suddenly!
The body of the player approaching from behind is cut in half.
‘There’s only 10 minutes left, but it’s not over until it’s over.’
You must accumulate as many records as possible to become number one in the entire district ranking.
However, it is difficult to kill just anyone.
‘Because they are not ranked simply in order of killing the most.’
No, it’s true that you have to kill a lot.
However, you should kill as many different people as possible.
Even if you kill one person multiple times, it only counts as 1.
That was the hidden ranking method for this round.
‘It means you shouldn’t kill like that guy.’
Ryu Min’s gaze was directed at none other than Hwang Yongmin.
“Die! Die, you bastards!”
He is beating to death people who were once his friends with his bare fists.
Immediately after resurrection.
‘The round is almost over and you’re still doing that in that spot. ‘I don’t know how many times I killed the same person.’
Cleverly, Hwang Yong-min lured his friends to one place and killed them.
Taking advantage of the fact that he was resurrected from the place of death, he chose a place for the grave.
‘I can’t believe they took turns killing five of the group’s friends at that location.’
I don’t know, but Iljin guys will have a hard time surviving this round.
If you die right after being resurrected like that, you won’t even have a chance to set a record.
‘Hwang Yong-min, who only killed the same people, may also be eliminated because his record is low… … .’
I didn’t worry about that.
The color of Hwang Yong-min’s nickname was darker than I expected.
This means that he killed not only his friends but also several other people.
‘It looks like he killed other players while waiting for resurrection.’
I can’t believe he has that much potential even though he hasn’t even been able to change jobs and has a penalty.
‘Well, I survived until the 5th round in the last episode.’
It looks like you killed 30 people, so you should pass this round without difficulty.
‘There’s nothing to say about me.’
Ryumin walked holding a sickle.
He scanned the players with eyes as if searching for prey.
Nicknames are all red.
No matter how much I look, I can’t find any fluorescent colors.
Nearly a thousand players committed murder without exception.
‘Is it wrong to call it murder? In 10 minutes, everyone will be resurrected without exception.’
The reason people were able to kill with such ease was probably due to the fact that they were resurrected.
‘The atmosphere steeped in madness may have played a role.’
Ryu Min also joined the atmosphere and cut down people.
They were people I had never met, but that was why I was able to cut them down.
‘If I stay still, I’ll die.’
If I don’t set a record, I will disappear.
However, I have no intention of missing out on the first place reward.
Because I have to grow somehow and reach round 20.
‘I don’t know how strong the final boss is. So you have to be as strong as possible.’
The reason for murder was not simply resurrection.
survival.
People are fighting for survival.
It was a familiar thing to modern people living in a competitive society.
‘Starting from this round, players will lose their aversion to murder.’
Although virtual, these players have already experienced dozens of murders.
Would you feel repulsed if you actually committed murder in real life?
‘I will act more freely from now on. The lawlessness zone is accelerating.’
They point their swords at each other and kill ordinary people to prove their superiority.
That is the future of players.
‘It may not be true in all cases, though.’
Any player who has not lost their humanity will feel guilty and sorry for the murder.
Ryu Min didn’t feel the same way.
‘That’s why I’m killing him as painlessly as possible right now.’
However, the player who attacked first was killed without mercy or anything else.
‘Because there is no mercy for the guy who attacks first.’
And once a player was killed, he would never be killed again.
Even if you kill it more than once, it doesn’t count.
‘That means I remembered the nicknames of all the players I killed.’
Remember the nicknames of hundreds of players?
It was difficult, but not impossible.
‘You can memorize the nickname as long as you remember the core keywords simply and clearly.’
This was also possible because of the high intelligence stat.
‘I killed that guy, and that guy too.’
I busily rolled my eyes as I passed the players.
Ryumin’s target is a player who has never been killed.
However, most of them were killed by Ryumin.
‘I don’t remember that guy. ‘This is my first time.’
As soon as he saw the first player, he immediately swung his scythe.
After breaking his head in two, he left to find his next target without looking back.
‘There isn’t much time. ‘We need to build up as many records as possible.’
At that time, in order to win first place in the entire district, we turned on the light in our eyes to find and slaughter prey.
A pillar of light came down from the sky and blocked all movement.
Time is up.
[Kihehehe! Did everyone have fun killing?]
The players, each trapped in a pillar, sent a cold look towards the angel.
There’s no way you can enjoy it when you kill the same person.
I also looked with resentment at the angel who gave me this disgusting quest.
Angels are just guides.
[Oh, look at that dirty blood. The once neat space has become a complete mess?]
“…….”
[Anyway, thank you for your hard work killing each other. I’ll save some dead people before I see the tally results.]
Even before the angel spoke, the system was already reviving the dead.
‘You’re talking as if you’re saving someone’s life. Even though I don’t have the ability to do that.’
While Ryumin was laughing at the angel, the players were resurrected and, without exception, were trapped in the pillar.
Hwang Yong-min’s friends, who had been killed for three hours, were also able to survive this time.
“Hwang Yong -min, a dog!”
“f*ck you, you bastard! I’ll kill you, you bastard!”
“A bug that’s worse than breakfast and lunch!”
Although he was busy swearing at Hwang Yong-min in the pillar of light.
[Quiet, quiet! From now on, I will explode the heads of those who talk loudly.]
“…….”
[It’s a bit quiet now. Now that everyone has been resurrected, let’s take a look at the results. ah! Before that, we should first look at what the sub-quest for this round was, right?]
“Subquest?”
“Was it there this time too?”
[Of course there was. So you thought it wasn’t there? Are you stupid? Giggling.]
“…….”
The angel who had chosen the human opened a quest window as if to show off.
<Sub Quest>
└Defeat the district representative within the time limit
└If successful ▶ Receive lowest level magic stone drawing ticket
“Kill the district representative?”
“Was this a side quest?”
[that’s right. You stupid humans. For reference, there is only one person in our area who has completed the sub-quest. It is a black scythe.]
“Uh, the black scythe?”
“Come to think of it…….”
“Not long after you started, you killed Hwang Yong-min and took over as district representative, right?”
“Oh, I see.”
The people who criticized Black Scythe for killing Hwang Yong-min licked their lips with regret.
‘If I had known this would happen, I would have killed Hwang Yong-min… … .’
‘shit. I never thought it would be beneficial to be the district representative this round.’
However, this news was new to Hwang Yong-min, who had actually died.
‘My, I died? To the black scythe?’
Could this have been the reason why the film cut off in the beginning?
Hwang Yong-min, who realized that he had died and was resurrected, urgently looked at the skill window.
‘does not exist. ‘I don’t have the leadership that was a temporary skill.’
Even though the opportunity was used up, there was clearly a leadership skill left in the skill window.
But now, there is absolutely nothing.
‘Has the authority of the district representative really been passed over? To the black scythe?’
Is this what it means to help you avoid becoming a target?
Are you saying that you will take the representative ticket yourself?
Hwang Yong-min looked at Ryu Min in bewilderment.
Ryu Min didn’t even give me a glance as if he wasn’t interested.
[Now, shall we look at the aggregate results? Oh, are you curious about what criteria were used to rank them before that?]
The angel revealed the rules that had been hidden for so long.
[The ranking method is the order in which various humans were killed. Even if you kill the same person multiple times, the count is recorded as 1.]
“They were various people?”
“Wasn’t it okay to just kill a lot of people?”
[Could it be that simple? Hehehe, let’s see the results right away.]
As the angel flapped his wings, the results window appeared.
★ 4th round results tally ★

[Black Scythe took first place again?]
‘Thank goodness.’
Meanwhile, Ryu Min sighed in relief at the relatively comfortable first place.
The players were looking at Ryumin with somewhat disgusted expressions.
“Killing more than 700 people….”
“How on earth is that possible?”
“Aren’t there about a thousand of us?”
“So you killed 70% of them by yourself?”
“You’re crazy, you’re crazy.”
Like the people shaking their heads, the angel couldn’t help but be amazed.
[and! Did he kill 722 people by himself? Incredible? For reference, the 521st place record in our district is 30 people. Below that, it is a line of extinction.]
“ah…….”
“ah……!”
Sighs flowed from the mouths of half of the players.
These were players who could not kill even 30 people.
“Oh, no. I don’t want to be destroyed!”
“Are you really going to die this time?”
“Ha… I should have killed you a little harder.”
While half of the players were sighing with regret.
Ryumin was looking at the reward message.
