Overgeared - Chapter 347

The typical profit structure of BJs was through lunar balloons (goods received from viewers) .

In fact, the main source of income for BJs was advertising .

Brands advertised themselves through the BJ’s clothes or accessories . There were also banner ads inserted on the screen and video ads that increased sequentially according to the number of video playbacks .

A BJ’s advertising revenue increased dramatically depending on the number of viewers and video plays, so the popular BJs made millions of won as monthly revenue .

The pinnacle of this was Bunny Bunny . After his splendid recovery through the ‘Seven Guilds invasion of Reidan,’ the average number of viewers was 150,000 . The viewers were from all over the world . Once the broadcast started, there were a flurry of lunar balloons . The advertising companies also guaranteed him the best treatment .

“The new broadcast will raise my value even more . ”

Tadak . Tadak . Tadak .

Bunny Bunny sat in front of a computer for three days . He had his meals in front of a computer and reduced his sleep . He concentrated on editing the video while wearing thick glasses .

“Okay, very nice . ”

Bunny Bunny was very pleased with the 10 hour video that was gradually being completed .

Prince Ren marching off resolutely . A young knight struggling against the great swordsman, Chucksley . Grid appearing in a dramatic moment to overpower Prince Ren’s army . The Reidan soldiers, who turned the royal army into masses of experience . In the end, Prince Ren fell to his knees before Grid . Grid showed mercy to Prince Ren and reigned over thousands of soldiers .

As a bonus, the farmer who crushed Hurent…

The war footage of the Reidan army and royal army was a blockbuster . There were plenty of spectacular and stimulating sights to make the viewers enthralled . Thanks to Bunny Bunny’s great filming and editing techniques, there was nothing boring .

‘In particular, the finale is the highlight . ’

Grid looked down at the kneeling Prince Ren with a haughty attitude . The viewers would realize something when watching Grid say ‘I will forgive your sins . ’ They would know that Grid was a clever person who looked to the future .

‘The ones who mock Grid for only using items will be shut down . ’

Bunny Bunny liked Grid’s character very much . He showed a great dignity as a lord, while showing abrupt speeches and absolute force . He always appeared in dramatic moment and was suitable to be a protagonist .

‘His appearance is also becoming better . ’

His skeleton had been further refined by exercise . In particular, his sharp jawline was now visible . It was a subtle difference when actually looking at him, but it was different in the video . This was because elements on the screen could be changed significantly by minor factors .

‘I want to get closer to Grid in the future in order to obtain more opportunities to film . ’

Ttiring~

Bunny Bunny was putting the final touches on the editing when an email arrived . It was from Lauel . Bunny Bunny narrowed his eyes as he checked the contents of the email .



“He is as thorough as rumored . ”

Lauel had two requirements . First, pay 40% of all Grid-related proceeds to Overgeared . Secondly, delete the scene where Grid allowed Prince Ren to live .

‘The profit distribution is more than twice the average…’

Still, it was something he could afford . It was worth spending this much . But why did he want to delete the last scene that would imprint Grid’s charisma onto the public?

Why? Bunny Bunny worried about it for a long time before figuring out Lauel’s intentions .

‘Wasn’t Grid framed for killing Prince Ren?’

In such a situation, what if it spread that Grid released Prince Ren?

‘…Some people might think that Grid stabbed Prince Ren in the back . ’

It would be misunderstood that Grid let Prince Ren leave alive, only to chase and assassinate him .

‘It is a situation where the person who killed Prince Ren can’t be specifically pointed out . Well, the misunderstanding might be resolved if Grid tries to explain it . ’

However, it was a sensitive issue, so the public might be indifferent to the clarification .

‘Yes, there is no need to scratch at the surface . ’

Bunny Bunny was convinced and started editing the video again .

Then two days later .

The nine hour video of the war between Grid and Prince Ren was broadcasted by Bunny Bunny . The reaction was explosive . It exceeded even Bunny Bunny’s expectations .

-Wow… That knight called Laden has excellent skills . Not giving into the enemy until the end for his lord…

–A Named NPC? Ordinary players like us can never meet them…ㅋ

-Chucksley is the real thing . He’s a great swordsman .

–Ohh! Grid!

–Crazy; Look at Grid;;;

–Wow… I never thought he could match Chucksley… He’s even giving Reidan’s soldiers experience while dealing with Chucksley ㅋㅋ

–I can’t look away .

–I felt it since he hit the Red Knight, but Grid has really improved his control skills .



–I agree . There is no comparison to the National Competition or the golem invasion .

–What are those golden hands? ;;

–What Grid ㅋㅋㅋ Does he want to be a thousand-armed person in the future? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

–Grid oppa has used Blackening .

–I prefer the white version .

In the past, there were many people who expressed dissatisfaction towards Grid . Some even showed hostility . They couldn’t acknowledged Grid, who showed poor skills and only relied on items . But now it was different .

People felt attracted to Grid . Over time, the users saw Grid growing and ‘wanted to become like Grid someday . ’

–Eh?

The enthusiastic audience watching Bunny Bunny’s broadcast became quiet . It was due to Hurent, who won Prince Ren’s trust and led 2,000 troops . He repeatedly said that he would repay his grudge while moving through the Altes Mountains .

–Farmers?

That’s right . Farmers blocked their way . The viewers were disappointed .

–What is wrong with those farmers? ㄷㄷ

–Blocking the front of an army… Do they want to commit suicide?

–How poor… Pitiful .

That was the common belief . All the viewers were worried about the lives of the farmers . But what was the real scene? 2,000 soldiers were defeated by a farmer who used a legendary wide area skill . They should be worried about Hurent .

Puk .

“Eek?”

Puk .

“Huk!”

Puk .

“Heeeok…!”

“…”

At present, the number of viewers for Bunny Bunny’s broadcast had reached 300,000 . The first user to become a duke, Grid, and the prince of a kingdom were fighting . It was a hot topic that caused the audience interest to explode .

As hundreds of thousands of viewers watched, Hurent was defeated by a farmer . He was hit in the forehead three times by a hand plow and became a rag . It was a shocking event that would cause a wave beyond the legendary ‘5 second logout’ incident .

The world was in an uproar for a while . News related to Grid was played unceasingly in South Korea as well as the world .







“This war hasn’t revealed Duke Grid’s real power . Jishuka, Regas, Pon and the other Overgeared members didn’t participate . ”

“Grid’s actual power must be several times stronger than what was shown here . ”

Various media and public opinion was concentrated not just on Grid, but Grid’s forces . Numerous experts rated Grid’s power as two or three times what was shown . But they didn’t know . Two times? Three times? How funny . After merging with the Silver Knights Guild and obtaining Yura, Grid was 10 times stronger than what he showed in the war .

Even now .

Grid’s strength was increasing by leaps and bounds .

“Let’s build a temple for Goddess Rebecca in Reidan . ”

14th Pope Damian . The first user to acquire the status of pope was trying to start his first foreign activity after stabilizing the church .



***

The spacious fields of Reidan .

Hurent hadn’t been able to stretch his back for hours already . There was no time to breathe, thanks to Piaro’s thorough supervision .

“Don’t bend your knees when bowing your back . ”

Furthermore, Piaro had too many unnecessary requirements . Hurent was exhausted and he couldn’t bear it anymore .

“Don’t bend my knees when bowing my waist? Isn’t that too hard? It’s complete torture!”

“Hard work is the way you train your body . If it’s easier, your body won’t be trained and you might be hurt in the long run . ”

“…I see . ”

Hurent was confused . Wasn’t he a prisoner? But he was being trained rather than treated as simple labor . In fact, the rewards for the ‘★Hidden Quest★ Fun and Exciting Training!’ was of immense value .

“Why are you being so good to me? Do you plan to make me Grid’s subordinate? It won’t work . I will never be Grid’s subordinate . My goal is to make Grid kneel within four seconds .

Piaro explained to Hurent .

“In one week, I will be heading into Altes Mountain to do a mass-scale land clearing . My goal is to train you as much as possible by then to make you the best labor force . ”

“…Dammit . I knew it . You wouldn’t do this for no reason . ”

Hurent grumbled but followed Piaro’s instructions . He couldn’t help it when looking at the quest reward . The moment he was immersed in the rice planting .

“It’s been a long time, Brother . ”

A man with his face and name deeply covered by a straw hat arrived . He walked across the fields in a leisurely manner and gave a friendly greeting to Piaro .

“You have grown!”

Piaro was a crazy farmer who attacked people for no reason .

‘I don’t know who he is, but I feel sorry for him . ’

Hurent shook his head . The man with the straw hat . The foolish man who greeted Piaro was attacked . Piaro’s hand plow attacks were quick and irregular . Even an aura master couldn’t match it . Hurent predicted that the man in the straw hat would have his forehead struck by a hand plow .

However, the result was different from what he expected .

Chaaeng!

A beautifully shining white sword easily blocked Piaro’s hand plow .

“Heok . ”

That crazy farmer’s hand plow could be blocked? Hurent was astonished while Piaro cried out .

“You have far exceeded my past self…!”

There were only two people who had ever made Piaro feel thrilled . Pagma’s Descendant Grid and White Swordsman Kraugel . That’s right . The identity of the man in the straw hat was the 1st ranked user, Kraugel .

“I’m stuck at the last wall blocking my ultimate goal . I’m asking for a spar with you in order to break that wall . ”

The peak of two billion users and…

A unique existence who gobbled up all types of titles . He was trying to get ahead of everyone else .

And on this day .

It was the historic first meeting between Grid and Kraugel . It was a turning point for both men .
