Overgeared - Chapter 1058

Chapter 1058: 1058

-Really? As expected, the value of the options is the greatest .

For the last week, Grid had devoted himself to hunting in the jungle, the first gateway of the Ruins of the War God .  The followers in the jungle couldn’t easily stop him, Noe, Randy, Tiramet, the light elemental, and the Overgeared Skeletons .  Randy was particularly active .  The ‘doppelganger of the Mysterious Forest’, who could copy skills as well as the appearance of the target, evolved further with the development of Grid’s Swordsmanship .  

“Let’s take a break . ”

Once his stamina gauge flashed, Grid sat down and summoned Overgeared Corn .  Overgeared Corn confirmed that there were no women and ushered in Sage Time .  He started to lick Grid’s cheek in a humiliated manner like he was a prisoner kissing the feet of an enemy leader .

Noe laughed . “Overgeared Corn is swearing about how his master doesn’t have a lover . A man who walks alone without a woman is the most pathetic and unsightly person in the world . ”

Overgeared Corn responded like it was refreshing for his words to be heard .  

Grid snorted . “I’m a married man . You are the solo one . ”

Overgeared Corn gave up .  He bowed his head and cried .  Grid stoked Overgeared Corn’s mane, pulled out his portable furnace and anvil, and focused on the whisper .  He was contacting Chris .

-So, who is the lucky protagonist? 

-Vantner .

During Grid’s absence, Chris had carried out a campaign .  It was a campaign that said ‘make things for yourself . ’ The campaign was to keep the alchemy facility running non-stop while not putting the burden on the Overgeared Kingdom’s finances . The Overgeared members participated in it actively .  Hundreds of Overgeared members came to Reidan every day . They provided the materials and used the Production system .

Sometimes, they used the Transformation system . Other times, they used the Option system .  Of course, the Option system could only be used by a limited number of Overgeared members as there was a 48-hour countdown .  Well, the utilization wouldn’t be high even if there was no cooldown time .  There was a limit to the number of options that could be attached to each item, and there was a great risk that the value of the item would be slashed entirely if they ended up with the ‘coolness’ option like Iyarugt .

However, one lucky person had been born .  It was Vantner .  He was fortunate to have the best ‘Add Skill’ option added to his main weapon .  There was a celebration throughout the entire Overgeared Guild .  

The ultimate result in normal alchemy led to the facility’s experience rising by 0 . 01% percent . The best result in transformation increased experience by 1% while the best result in the field of adding options increased experience by 5% .

-A skill was added . . .  I’m jealous .

-I thought I was going to die from a stomach ache watching him .

Vantner was the lucky one .  Thanks to Vantner’s personality, he would probably boast about it for the next few years, making their ears sore .  Grid grumbled for a moment before smiling .

-Well, I’m glad that the experience of the alchemy facility has increased dramatically .

-Yes .  Grid, you guarantee 1% experience every 10 days .  If this luck keeps up, the facility will level up faster than we think .

The situation was optimistic, and the campaign had greatly reduced the financial burden .  The problem was the members who failed appeared one after another .  In the worst case, the number of members using the alchemy facility could plummet and the rate of experience gain would slow .

-It is too much of a strain on the guild members .  I will instruct them to increase the investment in alchemy at the national level, so distribute alchemy products to the members .

-Yes, I understand .

Chris was a top ranker .  Among the two billion players, his power was at the top, and he had great experience running a large guild .  Since he had many faithful subordinates and was a tycoon in the pursuit of founding a country, his actual pride was very high .  Yet he was like this in front of Grid . He faithfully followed Grid no matter the circumstances .

Was it because Grid’s power transcended Chris’? No, humans weren’t animals .  They didn’t simply give into power .  The biggest reason Chris followed Grid was his absolute trust in Grid’s nature .  As Grid gew up, Chris genuinely came to respect Grid’s attitude that abandoned his arrogance and looked around . Chris always felt the desire to stand at the top with this man .

“Then let’s start again . ”

Grid intended to be the first player to reach level 400 .  He recalled Overgeared Corn and got up .  Then a follower from a bush came upon him .  The follower used a bull-like rush similar to Bubat and instantly narrowed the distance to Grid .  The bushes and branches shook in response to the wind that blew belatedly .  By this time, the follower’s sword was already drawing a frightening arc .  The sharp end of the weapon headed toward Grid’s neck .

However, Grid didn’t respond .  He didn’t have to go out on his own .

Kyak kyak! Kyakyakyak!

“ . . . !?”

The Overgeared Skeletons dancing and laughter attracted the eyes of the follower, and the follower’s weapon naturally transferred from Grid’s neck to the Overgeared Skeletons .  The weapon ended up hitting Tiramet’s chest, not the Overgeared Skeletons .  Blood gushed out, but Tiramet didn’t blink . Rather, he scoffed and hugged the follower tightly around the waist .

“Nyahahahat!”

“Grid’s Sword Dance! Link!”

Noe’s claws and Randy’s swordsmanship turned the followers into rags .  The furious follower shook Tiramet off and tried to fight back .

Flash!

The light elemental temporarily destroyed the follower’s vision .  Grid’s basic attack slammed into its back .  One time, two times, three times, four times, five times, six times, seven times, eight times, nine times . . .  Alex's Quick Gloves, which increased general attack speed by three times, worked well with his transcendent status .

Previously, Grid was limited to the maximum speed and could only achieve six basic attacks per second . Now it was possible to go up to nine .  He was even in a no-buff state .  The follower kneeled down with a moan .  Grid didn’t even look at the follower who was swept away by the black flames and turned to ashes .  There was a smile on his face as he praised Noe, Randy, Tiramet, the light elemental, and the Overgeared Skeletons, “It was a great teamplay . Well done . ”

“Heh, this is no big deal . These low-level guys are ordinary food for the best demonic beast of hell . ”

“Grid becoming stronger means Randy is stronger . I’m happy . . . ”

Kyak kyak! Kya kya kyak!

Clack! Clack clack!

Flash flash!

Noe, Randy, the light elemental, and the Overgeared Skeletons clearly expressed their delight at Grid’s praise .  Only Tiramet was unresponsive .  The true blood vampire was still unable to understand the reality of being a human’s pet .  All the true blood vampires that Grid met so far had their noses in the air, so he thought it was right to give Tiramet time to adjust .

‘It will be different if we keep staying together . ’

Clack clack! Clack clack clack!

“Stop dancing,” Grid scolded the Overgeared Skeletons and moved deeper into the forest .  He planned to keep on hunting until the cooldown time of Ultimate Transformation ended .

***

The vampire cities and the Galgunos Temple were the exclusive hunting grounds of the Overgeared Guild .  Both hunting grounds had distinct advantages .  In the vampire cities, a large number of vampires appeared, and it was good for raising the Overgeared members’ skill proficiency . It was also possible for them to obtain jackpots like the vampire items and elixirs .  

On the other hand, the Galgunos Temple guaranteed overwhelming experience instead of fewer monsters and dropped items .  The high-levelled Overgeared members were using the Galgunos Temple while the low to mid Overgeared members were using the vampire cities as hunting grounds .  

“Wow, I’m going to die . It is so hard here . What about the Ruins of the War God?”

In the Galgunos Temple, Peak Sword returned the beautiful Iyarugt to his sheath and sat down .  He was still stunned .  Considering how Grid could play solo at the terrible Ruins of the War God . . . he felt more and more like a distant existence in the world .

Vantner replied with a grin, “The ruins aren’t a big deal for Grid . Well, I’m also going to move my hunting grounds to the ruins . ”

“You?” 

“I’m too strong because of the new skill attached to my weapon . It is boring here .  Huhuhut . ”

“Don’t drink a potion and tell me that . You will die . ”

“Hum hum . ”

It was hard .  In the Galgunos Temple, the frequency of the followers was too high .  Peak Sword, Vantner, Pon, Regas, Jishuka, and others of the 10 meritorious retainers hunted together, but the Overgeared members faced new crises every time .  Ibellin and Zednos, the strongest members after the 10 meritorious retainers, had died three times in the past 10 days .  Losing concentration for even a short period of time caused death, so the 10 meritorious retainers encouraged guild members to hunt in the vampire cities .

“Sigh . It is hard because we don’t have enough buffers and healers . ”

The healers were particularly problematic .  Due to the nature of Satisfy, they were forced to hire NPC priests of the Rebecca Church if they wanted healers .  However, the Galgunos Temple was too dangerous for the Rebecca priests . The priests became reluctant to go to the Galgunos Temple, and the healing drought in the Overgeared Guild became more severe .  At this moment, the drought was over .

“Please let us into the party . ”

“Eh?”

The 10 meritorious retainers were helping the guild members hunt while blocking the paths of other followers .  They were tired from the ongoing battle, but their eyes looked back .  Only one person had the title of Saintess .  Grid’s sister Ruby appeared in the temple with her friend and escort knight, Sexy Schoolgirl .  The moment they entered the party, the Overgeared members were perfectly restored thanks to Ruby’s wide-area heals, and the members were happy and surprised .

“What’s going on here?”

Ruby and Sexy Schoolgirl had joined the Overgeared Guild since high school and were two of the few light users in the Overgeared Guild .  They were studying, so their gameplay time was very low . Due to their low level, they were generally active in low level hunting grounds . Sometimes they were spotted in the vampire cities, but it was only sometimes .  Why were they in the Galgunos Temple, which had a great level of difficulty? Had they gained so many levels after not being seen for a while?

Sexy Schoolgirl raised a V sign to the blank Overgeared members .  “I’m a former university student who has transitioned to being a professional gamer . ”

“ . . . ”

The power of the Overgeared Guild . . .  The players they hoped would be their greatest power in the next few years were finally . . .

“Yes!” Vantner’s cry represented the joy of the Overgeared members .  All guild members welcomed Ruby and Sexy Schoolgirl, and the party’s hunting speed increased by four times .

“Look . That’s him, that person . ”

“The farmer of the Overgeared Guild!”

“The Seven Dukes . . . No, the one who made the Five Dukes of the empire bow their heads!”

“Piaro!”

A group of people flocked to Reinhardt’s granaries .  There was only one reason why tens of thousands of tourists came here every day .  It was to see the legendary farmer Piaro .  People didn’t forget the absolute supreme person who caused the proud dukes of the empire to bow .  The sight of the farming tools he used to smash Berith . . .

“Wow! Look at that! Piaro has started to dig up potatoes!”

“Ah! Ahhh! His hand plow is sexy . . . ”

The bright-eyed people gazed at Piaro with envy and respect .  Now Piaro was the hero and idol of all players, not just Grid and the Overgeared members .

Some people argued that Piaro should be Satisfy’s mascot and some of the Korean markets famous for rice created characters in Satisfy to meet with Piaro . It was said that Vietnam’s prime minister, a country famous for its rice noodles, also started Satisfy through a back door, but it was impossible to confirm this .

Piaro, who was responsible for the army and food, was one of the greatest powers of the Overgeared Kingdom .  It wasn’t easy for newbies to meet him .

“Huhuhut,” Aura Master Hurent laughed as he worked with Piaro on the fields .  He was thrilled to know that so many people admired his master .

Administrator Rabbit approached Hurent as he was humming .  “Look over here . ”

“Huh? Ah, yes . What did you need?”

“Please take this . ”

“Isn’t this the rainbow potato?” Hurent cocked his head .  Hurent couldn’t understand why the administrator was showing him a cart with dozens of bags of potatoes .

Rabbit explained to the puzzled Hurent, “Take it to the people and sell it . We shouldn’t miss this opportunity to sell to tourists . ”

“ . . . ?”

“Sell the potatoes . ”

“ . . . ”

“We can get five times the price for potatoes grown by the legendary farmer Piaro . . . No, it can be sold at 10 times the price . What are you doing? Hurry up . ”

“ . . . ”

On this day . . .

[Title: Today, I went to the Overgeared Kingdom and encountered Aura Master Hurent]

[He is selling potatoes . . .

ㄴafsij**’s comment: Then Huroi is reading a morals book . ]

There were posts in communities all over the world about sightings of Aura Master Hurent but few people believed them .

In the capital of the Saharan Empire, Titan . . .

“Don’t resist and accept it . It will be more comfortable for you . ”

Edan sat in front of the captured dukes and pulled out the Yatan Essence .  The irresistible demonic energy started to harass and manipulate the minds of the dukes .

Dark clouds hung over the empire .
