'This happened around this time?'

Reading down, Sanghyuk read on to see where the skirmish was at.

Gold Rush had numerous workers. There were two types of workers - young children being exploited for their talent in Korea and low-wage workers in China who were being extorted of their labor.

However, workshops in China just utilized the fact that labor wages were extremely cheap and made the workers do menial labor. Thanks to that, the number of workers was exceedingly higher on the Chinese side.

'First, Skies Above Skies should have discovered a secret path that leads to the underground hunting field of the Red Pyramid…… while Gold Rush should have realized that there is a secret path. They're probably probing each other at this point, right? And there were skirmishes here and there…… since both of the guilds are so large, the clash itself seems to have become a hot topic.'

'At this stage, no one ever knew that it wasn't just Skies Above Skies versus Gold Rush, but would become an all-out battle between Sky Line and Golden Line.'

Of course, this was on a much larger scale, but this didn't make it any different.

The reason why this became so big when it could have ended with a small skirmish was not that things that happened inside the game, but outside.

Of course, external sources of fuel didn't last that long. The external sources of fuel would all die down in 3 to 4 days anyway. However, just as the external supply of fuel became low, a new variable would occur under the Red Pyramid.

Thanks to that, Skies Above Skies and Gold Rush would clash even more intensely. The underground hunting field was the Red Pyramid was what was stereotypically known as a 'juicy' hunting field, so the situation turned for the worse.

'This battle of wits lasted for around two weeks more? In any case, that incident would happen in around three weeks and the scale became suddenly large. After that, the war between two guilds leads to the worst outcome, the war between lines.'

'Gold Rush…… Gold Rush…….'

'This is not an opportunity I should pass by.'

Sanghyuk continued his thoughts even after logging into the game.

Sanghyuk wasn't just thinking of mere personal revenge but about how to use this opportunity as a whole.

Sanghyuk knew too well what would be necessary once the war started.

'So there's around three weeks until the war actually begins? I have plenty of time.'

'War merchant! Let's make another identity through this war.'

However, they only went into proper actions 5 years into the game. There was no way they would appear now when it hadn't even been a year since the launch of the game.

Sanghyuk equipped the 'Shadow Duke of Falcon City' title on his postfix title and opened a new slot.

'As for the name… let's just go with Large Golden Mountain.'

He made the figure short in stature and chubbier. When he did, he got a stereotypical greedy-looking guy.

It was the icing on the cake(?) Just with that goat beard, a perfectly miser-looking guy appeared.

Sanghyuk immediately registered the setting on Large Golden Mountain.


The fourth if he included his actual self, but in any case, he liked both the avatar and the name.

He had almost sold out on skill books, but the income from maps was steadily increasing. The price of the map was way too overpriced compared to the skill book, so Sanghyuk was actually earning money doing nothing.

Sanghyuk set on a standard for the hoarding and entered that on two merchant NPCs.

Of course, he had set them up the same way.

Systematically, merchant NPCs had higher search speeds than users, and there were 6 of them doing it concurrently, so there was no way the users could catch up.

'War without these items is impossible. That means…… that this war cannot be won without me.'

The war merchant Sanghyuk was thinking of was a completely different existence altogether.

He made a suspicious smile and nodded.
He was realizing what others couldn't even possibly dare imagine.

Even while hoarding the items, Sanghyuk continued his marking bus business. He even increased his scale and did it twice a day, for a total of 12 people per day and lead them to the entrance of the 4th floor of the Cave of Giants, and the reactions of the people were explosive.

Doing that twice a day, that would mean 360 thousand gold.

Of course, he had no plans on turning this into cash. In fact, he was using all this money to hoard war goods.

When people watched Sanghyuk's stream, they gave quite a lot of 'star candy'. Of course, Sanghyuk didn't communicate with the spectators at all, but the viewers still gave him those anyway.

When Sanghyuk wasn't streaming, he was hunting black orcs in one of the top three most difficult hunting fields of Hellfire Desert, 'Blacksand Desert'.

The user known to have the highest level right now was level 49. Although One Soul users started being left behind and Double Soul users were rising, but the highest level was still taken by a One Soul user.

Even Sanghyuk had leveled up to 50 already. With that, the second hell zone that started at level 40 was now over.

Although it was incomparable to the third hell zone, it was still quite comparable to the second one. He still needed around 70% of the karma he needed to level up while he was in his second hell zone. Meaning, leveling up was still pretty hard.

However, Sanghyuk didn't think about that and just focused on doing as much as possible day by day.

Honestly, black orcs weren't monsters that gave a lot of karma or dropped expensive items. However, the reason Sanghyuk was hunting these black orcs was that it was the perfect monster to raise his skill proficiency in.

Proficiency, like levels, would also slow down when it was higher, so grinding at times like these was a good choice.

*Roaaaar!*
Another black orc collapsed on the floor with its neck half severed and turned into a spec of light.

Your proficiency in Mid-rank Sword Mastery has become 250. Requirements to advance has been fulfilled and it has changed into High-rank Sword Mastery.

Your proficiency in 'Elementalism [Low-rank]' has become 250. Requirements to advance has been fulfilled and it has changed into 'Elementalism [Mid-rank]'.

Two Soul skills reached 250 proficiency at the same time and became advanced versions.

Elemental Detonation showed their true might starting from mid-rank elementals.

'Anyway, it's about time it turns to the worst…….'

"Since it's almost time…… it looks like it's about time Large Golden Mountain came on stage."

The appearance of the war merchant Large Golden Mountain. This was the start of the war.
