Overgeared - Chapter 547

Chapter 547

"Weeeeeek!"

Food and shelter .  They were the basic elements of human life and a source of human pleasure .  It was hard for humans to live when they lacked food and shelter .  They were beings that desired a bigger and nicer house, more expensive clothes, and more delicious food .

However, Grid boldly gave up on this .  His desire to be stronger was larger than his desire to eat good food . Of course, it wasn't that easy .

“Cough cough! Damn Idan! How can the beef sirloin he cooks taste like shit?”

The bathroom in Idan's restaurant .  Grid was tearful and had a runny nose .  It was the aftermath of vomiting up the garbage food .  The terrible thing was that his stats didn’t go up despite eating such trash . Grid felt resentful of this world that was filled with the concept of probability . It was enough to make him tremble .  

“But in the end, I’m the one who chose to eat Idan’s food . . . The result might be bad, but I feel no regret about my choice . ”

He couldn’t look serious talking while he was still vomiting .  However, Grid had pride in himself .  He maintained his patience and perseverance until he got the results he wanted . He was now aware that this wasn’t something everyone could do .

“Well . . . The good news is that my empty stomach is resolved . ”

His stamina had been restored to normal .

Spit spit .  Grid left and headed straight to Pangea Castle . He lay down on the bed in the room assigned to him and logged straight out .

***

"Ugh . . . I still feel sick . ”

Shin Youngwoo’s complexion was pale as he left the capsule . The taste of Idan’s food was still lingering in his mouth .

“It should be okay if I eat something sweet . ”

He only gave up on good food in Satisfy .  Now he was craving a sweet potato latte .  It was warm, soft, and sweet .  If he bought one on the way home after a morning jog, all his fatigue would melt away .  It was a luxury that he wouldn’t have even thought of when he was poor . Now it was nothing for Shin Youngwoo to spend 6,000 won on himself .  He donated 3,300 won to Uni X, so how could he hesitate to buy a 6,000 won beverage?

Compare it .  Originally, Youngwoo was only stingy with others . He wouldn’t have bought a 800 million won car if he was stingy with himself .

“I will go eat . ”

Youngwoo stretched for a long time in the garden and entered the elevator . Then he headed to the famous cafe chain store on the first floor of the building .

"Welcome . "

A panoramic cafe .  It was a cozy space comparable to a cafe in the city center . A cafe employee greeted him with a bright smile and Youngwoo ordered a sweet potato latte . He sat at the sunny window seat and made a gentle expression .

‘The buildings of the guild members will soon be completed . ’ 

Six high-rise buildings were currently under construction next to Youngwoo’s building .  They were buildings owned by Yura, Jishuka, Pon, Huroi, and Vantner .  Youngwoo felt like a new person .  He felt happy that his former debt-ridden self was now a landlord and that his colleagues were doing well .  His heart was happy enough to fill the world .

The employee handed him his drink with a soft smile, before asking with an anxious expression . “I’ve seen the news . The Overgeared Guild is having a hard time these days . Is it okay?”

"?"

The Overgeared Guild was having a hard time?

‘Aren’t we doing well?’

Youngwoo was speechless and the employee explained to him .

“I heard from the players that belong to the Eternal Kingdom . I heard that Bairan and Patrian are completely isolated by the enemy . It’s so sad . I would’ve fought for Overgeared if my level was a little higher . "

“ . . . The players?”

Youngwoo realized his mistake .

‘That bastard Aslan gave quests to kill Overgeared!’

Lauel had said that Overgeared could block any enemy attacks even if Grid wasn’t there .  Become strong in the East Continent and return . At the time, Grid had obediently nodded .

‘I didn’t expect the players to intervene . ’

He was still stupid .

Kkuok!

He jumped out of his seat . He was running to the elevator when he stopped in place . It was because the cafe owner had just brought out a cake that looked good .

“I will eat well . ”

He couldn’t resist a free meal! Youngwoo collected the cake and boarded the elevator . He pressed the button for the penthouse and pulled out his phone .

" . . . No . He’ll just tell me not to worry . ”

Youngwoo had thought about contacting Lauel .  He changed his mind and pulled out a business card from his wallet, calling that number .  The call was set at the cost of the receiver . The reason?

“Bunny Bunny? Uh, um . . . What is turn on the translator in English?”

It was an international call!

*** 

Bairan .

The small city adjacent to Winston was originally under the jurisdiction of Marquis Steim .  After gaining big achievements in the north, it was given to Jishuka and then Grid .  Yura wanted to protect it .  Bairan was a territory that Jishuka, a founding member of Overgeared, brought as a gift .

Yura only brought herself to Overgeared .  In addition, she wasn’t able to do much after that . She just helped in the Tiramet raid . From the standpoint of Overgeared, wasn’t she worthless?

‘I need to prove my worth . ’

It wasn’t just a one-dimensional desire to look good for Grid . It was natural to contribute to the organization that she belonged to .

Step .

Yura stepped onto the wall of the small fortress .  She pulled out a yellow hair band and tied up her long black hair .  The souls of thousands of enemy players watching her flew away for a while .  Slim limbs and a perfect face . The proportions of Yura’s body were so unrealistic that they wondered if she was made by God .

“Wow . . . Her face became smaller after her hair was tied up . ”

“She’s better than NPCs . That’s a real person?”

"So pretty . . . "

People from various races exclaimed .  Skin that was whiter than snowflakes .  The gleaming lips and eyes that charmed anyone who saw them .  It was natural for people present to be attracted to her . Pon saw the reactions of the enemies and laughed .

‘They’ve lost their minds . I admire her beauty every time I see her . ’

Pon only cared about becoming strong in the game . But in reality, he was a man who couldn’t live without women .  For him, Yura was a really desirable woman . But he had already given up on Yura . He had no intentions of becoming rivals with Grid .

"According to the report, there are 10,000 enemies . Half of them are players . ”

On one hand, it was encouraging that the players were incorporated into the army .  It was because the kingdom’s army system made it easy to send in spies .  Of course, it wasn’t weak enough to sneak in the Overgeared members . But Pon’s personality was moderate and he had a variety of contacts .

"This is interesting . The average level of the kingdom’s soldiers is 180, and the players are 140 .

"Considering that most of the nearby hunting grounds are low to medium level, it’s natural that the players’ levels are low . But I didn’t expect the level of the kingdom’s soldiers to be so high . ”

"I agree . The average level of the soldiers that are attacking Patrian is only 160 . Why did they send this army here instead of Patrian?”

“It’s because Bairan is closer to the capital than Patrian . From the kingdom’s point of view, it’s more convenient to have a base in Bairan . ”

“I see . Tsk, they wouldn’t have dared attack Bairan if Marquis Steim had taken our side . Doesn’t he know that he became a marquis thanks to Grid?”

“You have to understand the position of Marquis Steim . His essence is a loyal subject of Eternal . Even if the king killed his brother, it isn’t easy to betray him . More than anything else, war is scary . He’s afraid his precious people will be swept away by it . I respect his heart . ”

Yura was a former member of the Yatan Church and familiar with slaughter . She was always covered in the blood of the enemy and got the nickname of Blood Witch .  But at that time, she was just acting faithful to her role .  Unlike Lauel, she didn’t regard people as tools and appreciated Marquis Steim’s heart . She knew that a man who cherished his people had value .

'A talented person who is essential for Youngwoo’s kingdom . ’

They would win the war without putting pressure on Marquis Steim .  Yura pledged and pulled out a sword .  Yes, it was a sword instead of a gun .  It wasn’t a bayonet with a blade at the end, but a pure sword that was 1 meter in length . Pon tilted his head to one side .  

"A sword? Isn’t a Demon Slayer’s main weapon a magic engineering gun?”

"The sword can also be used as a primary weapon . A Demon Slayer has the same level of Gun Mastery and Sword Mastery . ” 

The reason she chose a gun was because the former Demon Slayer did so .  She thought that a gun was a better weapon than a sword for a Demon Slayer .  But she changed her thoughts since the National Competition .  She had suffered in close combat since her days as a black magician .  She didn’t want to be afraid of enemies approaching anymore .

In addition, a crucial reason for her selection of the sword was Grid .  Grid couldn’t make a gun alone .  He needed the help of magic and alchemy .  On the other hand, Grid could make a sword alone .  Using a sword meant it was easier to receive a weapon from Grid .

Thus, Yura chose the sword .  This was a great choice .

Black magician .  She formulated and arranged magic with quick responses that were beyond common sense and displayed strong combat capabilities . Her ability to calculate in real time combined with swordsmanship made her as deadly as the thorns on roses .

"Whenever the cooldown time of my basic skills return, I will open the gate and act . ”

“ . . . Huh?”

"The enemies are level 200 . If I go out and kill 100 people, we will be able to win the win if this keeps repeating . ”

“ . . . ”

Her brain resembled Lauel, while her personality was like Grid . Pon was confused by this crazy tactic and tried to stop her .

"No, this won’t work no matter how strong you are . Your stamina is a problem, and the fortress . . . ”

He was too late . Yura had already jumped down the wall and ordered the soldiers to open the gate .

Kiiiiik!

“What?”

"Opening the gate themselves?”

“Are they crazy?”

The kingdom’s soldiers and players laughed as they watched Bairan’s gate opening .  They had 10,000 people, while the other side had 2,000 . Bairan should be closing themselves up like a turtle, not opening the gate .

“Hahaha! Bairan? You can’t fight and now you want to surrender? Keeok!”

They expected to enter with no blood shed . Then the bodies of the excited players started to turn grey one by one .

Peeng!

Peng! Pepepeng!

It was a grey feast of grey-colored pillars rising to the sky .  Yura was at the center .  Her expression was unchanged while the sword supposed to be for destroying demons was now taking human life . She was a grim reaper that was as beautiful as a goddess .

“The female version of Kraugel?”

Yura used Image Sublimation in the midst of the bombardment of arrow and magic . Pon couldn’t help having this thought as he watched Yura moving through the enemies like lightning .  She was the former 5th ranked user . She was also a genius, and now she was a legend .

***

“Crazy . . . What are these people?”

The fortified city of Patrian .

The players of the Eternal Kingdom turned white .  Every time Jishuka fired an arrow, dozens of allies died . Hundreds of soldiers were stopped by Vantner and Toban’s shields . Every time the Overgeared members entered the battlefield with Regas in front, the army was ravaged .  For the ordinary and low level users who couldn’t deal with more one or two soldiers, the Overgeared members were transcendent .

The second day of the war .  The high rankers quietly watching the Eternal soldiers and ordinary players shrink back stood at the crossroad of choice . Should they give their strength to the Eternal Kingdom and strike Overgeared as planned, or stand back?

'I would’ve added my strength if the Eternal Kingdom was a bit stronger . ’

‘The number of troops isn’t high, so I’m reluctant to help out . ’

At the start of the game .  Most players chose the Saharan Empire as their starting point .  The empire had a wide range of infrastructure that made it easier to enjoy the game .  The Eternal Kingdom compared to the empire? It was a village located in the north of the continent .

The awareness level was third-rate .  As a matter of fact, the number of players belonging to the Eternal Kingdom was small and the quality was low . It happened when the high rankers decided to leave the battlefield .

"Reinforcements have arrived!”

A voice roared out on the battlefield .  Everyone's attention naturally turned that way .  Then the players of the Eternal Kingdom regained their color .

Jeff, Ralph, and Bubat .  The masters of the former Seven Guilds led their guilds to intervene in the war . Bubat, who had the strongest CC and a reputation for being unrivalled on the battlefield, smiled with satisfaction .

"I can’t miss an opportunity to mess with Grid . ”

Bubet wasn’t a member of Eternal and hadn’t been given the quests to kill Overgeared .  But that didn’t matter to him . Grid had frustrated him several times in the National Competition and the Reidan invasion, so he only dreamt of revenge .

"Let's go! Wipe out Overgeared!”

"Waaahhhhhhhh!"

The appearance of the powerful army enhanced morale .  The high rankers noticed this and also joined the offensive . Jishuka’s beautiful face wrinkled .

"The puppies have become dogs . ”

It was a bit dangerous .
