The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 347

[Sung JiHan, Mission Failed!]

[Is the destruction of humanity inevitable? The rise of the doomsayers.]

[The bleak future of humanity. The opinions of the BattleNet theorists gained strength after the broadcast.]

[Among the final 10 countries, why was it Japan and not Korea? The list of surviving nations that was hard to accept.]

[The biggest victims of this broadcast are Baerun and Jack? Officials urge restraint, saying that games are just games.]

The special mission of Sung JiHan, which was broadcasted worldwide.

His BattleTube broadcast on the 25th, which had the lowest ratings in history, caused a huge controversy.

-Sung JiHan failing a mission, isn't this almost the first time?

-Honestly, even Abyss's owner was subdued, but they still didn't promote him because humanity is doomed, lol.

-But Abyss's owner was subdued, so why is humanity still doomed? -_-

-So... should we boycott BattleNet?

-Is BattleNet refusing to accept a game they don't want? Lol.

Sung JiHan did his best as Sung JiHan, but the mission failed even if humanity was destroyed.

As viewers watched this, they felt the irrationality of the mission and a greater sense of anxiety about the future of humanity than ever before.

-But it won't really happen like that, right...?

-Ah, come on, lol. Honestly, it doesn't make sense that Japan is one of the final 10 countries instead of Korea. We're the champions of the championship.

-But among the final 10 countries, except for Korea, they all remained in the BattleNet rankings...

-In that mission, Sung JiHan was ranked 7th. If Sung JiHan wasn't as strong as he is now, would that future have happened?

-This mission is just a game, don't get too immersed. Lol, poor Jack, he's being bombed by American kids, lol.

-But Jack's girlfriend is Chinese...

-They broke up after this broadcast, lol.

When people were fighting between "this is just a game" and "we need to be careful" while watching the future of destruction.

Sung JiHan, who logged out of the special mission, was checking the system messages.

[Level has reached 30.]

[BattleTube channel has grown to the "barely escaped anonymity" rank.]

[Gained 50,000 reputation for the Holy See.]

"Although there was no mission reward, I gained a considerable amount of reputation for the Holy See."

The special mission ended in failure.

But there were some gains.

Even though he was just standing still, the owner of Abyss had his level increased to 30, probably because he broke his head.

Due to the appearance of the Mokshin tribe, a large number of viewers entered the World Tree Elf line, and the channel rank grew.

The Holy See reputation rewards were pouring in.

With 50,000 reputation, it was a value that could raise the level of the Holy See shop.

At this point, it seemed like a decent reward for a failure, but Sung JiHan's expression was dark.

"...I never thought I would be in the realm of the Taegeuk's Lost Soul."

The owner of Abyss, who had overwhelming power, the "Taegeuk's Lost Soul."

Sung JiHan never expected that there would be fragments of himself inside.

"But why do I have so many there?"

Among the many Sung JiHans who challenged the Taegeuk Sword, even though they didn't have stats like the current Sung JiHan or eternal life.

There were several Sung JiHans who had much more spirit or emptiness.

Even if they were to face the current Sung JiHan, even if there was a difference of 2 stats, they would win.

Among the broken Sung JiHans, there were also several who were already well-grown.

"Clearly, this is the first regression back to the past."

While Sung JiHan was thinking about himself in the realm of the Taegeuk's Lost Soul.

Knock knock!

"Uncle! Mom has something to say!"

Yoon Sae-ah knocked on the door from outside.

"Mom?"

"Yeah! Uncle, it's me, Sae-ah."

After saying that, Yoon Sae-ah entered the room.

Sung JiHan let out a sigh...

In front of her eyes, a purple aura shimmered and revealed the figure of a small-sized Sung JiAh.

In the form of a statue, Sung JiAh was bound by several chains.

One of the chains that bound her body was clearly smaller than when Sung JiHan last saw it.

"The chains seem to have lessened."

"The owner of the Abyss released some of the chains that were binding me."

Sung JiHan recalled the time she completed this mission.

"If you choose the highest difficulty and clear it, the witch's chains will be loosened by three lines."

Although she couldn't clear it.

Perhaps because she dealt a valid hit to the owner of the Abyss, he loosened them a bit.

"He's the owner of the Abyss?"

"Yeah. Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

"What?"

She should know.

Inside the Taiji Mandala, Sung JiHan's power has become stronger.

"I wonder if my power inside the Mandala has been enhanced during this mission..."

I don't know if this is a good thing.

Sung JiHan said with a bitter smile.

"If you're going to repay me, then release me, sister."

"No. He has no intention of letting me go. Instead, he made me an offer. He said he would help me create a refuge."

"A refuge?"

"Didn't I tell you about it before?"

Ziiing.

A blue hologram appeared in front of Sung JiAh.

An object made up of circular shapes.

Seeing that, Sung JiHan thought of the refuge.

If the Void Ability is too strong, you can't escape, right?

On the other hand...

Yoon SaeA looked at it with an amazed expression.

"Mom, what is this?"

"It's a means for you and JiHan to escape from Earth. Even if humanity is destroyed, the two of you must survive."

"Uh, just me and Uncle? What about other people?"

"What about other people... Is there anyone else to take?"

"Dad..."

"That human won't do."

"Oh, then how about Uncle's girlfriend?"

"JiHan has a girlfriend? Really? Who is it?"

"No, no."

Seeing Sung JiAh showing interest in whether or not he has a girlfriend, Sung JiHan cut her off in advance.

Then she showed a disappointed expression.

"Still? Isn't it time for you to start dating someone? You're already 28."

"Mom, Uncle said he met a lot of girls, right?"

"What do you mean by 'a lot'?"

"He talked to me very casually about it."

"He was just showing off in front of his nephew."

"Is that so?"

When Yoon SaeA giggled, Sung JiHan furrowed his brows.

"Never mind. Let's think about it when we're out of the BattleNet. It's not the right situation now."

"That's just an excuse. Even during the Korean War, kids were born just fine."

"Sister... When was the Korean War?"

"The owner of the Abyss said that he would expand the refuge. If that happens, it seems that both of you can enter and a few more people can escape. So, find a partner before both of you perish."

"...What, like Noah's Ark?"

Yoon Sae-ah asked with a puzzled expression.

"Mom... you're not making a definite judgment that humanity will be destroyed, right?"

"You saw it too. The future of the special mission."

"That's just a mission..."

"No, think of it as reality."

Yoon Sae-ah hesitated to believe and Sung JiHan spoke sharply.

She then spoke to Sung JiHan about the main point.

"From now on, I plan to support Sae-ah more."

"Really? Weren't you cautious because of the Void?"

"That's right. But some of the constraints of the chains have been released, so I can now control the power of the Void together. And that was the condition set by the owner of the Abyss. Make sure to be prepared."

Preparation.

The destruction of humanity is certain.

If they are going to evacuate their family anyway, they will make them as strong as possible before that...

Is that what the owner of the Abyss thinks?

"Being prepared is too much... I'm also one of the top archers in humanity."

"Think from an extraterrestrial perspective. Being at the top among humans means nothing."

"Well, that's true..."

Even if they say they are at the top among the current human players, it's like comparing acorns.

Yoon Sae-ah quickly agreed with Sung JiHan's words.

"Then, JiHan. I'll ask Sae-ah for help. And just in case... don't challenge the owner of the Abyss because of me."

"Do you know who that guy is?"

"The owner of the Abyss? The giant with red eyes?"

"...Yes."

Did he not reveal that he is Sung JiHan?

He nodded at Sung JiHan's words.

"I don't plan to challenge him right now. I need to become stronger."

"...Hoo. Okay, got it. Don't push yourself too hard."

After saying that, Sung JiHan disappeared.

Upon hearing what she said, Sung JiHan had a subtle expression.

'...If it goes like this, does that mean I have insurance thanks to that guy?'

Sung JiHan's original goal was to save his family.

To save his family and restore the original world by escaping humanity from the BattleNet.

If one thing goes wrong, he wanted to at least save his family somehow.

And in the realm of Taegeuk's Manghon, 'Sung JiHan' expanded his influence.

He had already prepared to escape his family to another world, thinking that the possibility of humanity escaping from the BattleNet was zero.

If it's an unwinnable situation, is this realistic?

Still...

'...The power he didn't possess. I need to research more about enemies and eternity.'

Instead of thinking about defeat in advance, Sung JiHan decided to focus on the possibilities that only he had.

"Sae-ah, I'm going to practice."

"Okay, Uncle. But the league is in a few days."

"Really? Who's the opponent?"

"It's Mechan. The machine race from back then."

The machine race, Mechan.

In the previous life, they were the ones who consistently maintained their position in the middle ranks.

They are a formidable opponent to leave to humanity alone.

"I guess I should see the effects of the VIP membership this time."

Sung JiHan thought of the options of the VIP membership.

-If you possess a VIP membership, you will have a 50% chance of being excluded from the opponent team's ban list.

I have never activated the ban evasion of the membership I won last time.

This time it's 50 percent, so it must be different.

To the owner of Abyss, to Dongbangsak.

Since I've only been involved with top-tier players who I don't have the confidence to win against, it was nice to meet the species of the Bronze League now.

"I need to catch my breath after a long time."

Sung JiHan smiled at the thought of the Mechan race.

* * *

August 1st.

As soon as the moon changed, the Space League match of humanity began.

=It seems that we are welcoming the first day of August with the Space League match!

=Today, the race that humanity has to face is the "Mechan"!

=Mechan... currently ranked 14th in the league, they are in the lower-middle ranks.

=We, humanity, have already encountered this race once.

=Yes, that's right. It was during the Diamond Promotion Match when Sung JiHan participated... the "League Competition"!

During the League Competition, humanity played matches against the World Tree Elves, Mechan, and Urk.

On channel 0, they were replaying the scenes from that time.

The bipedal robot race, Mechan.

They were not a race that greatly impressed humanity.

-So they were the robot race back then. I remember it wasn't anything special...

-Yeah, the robots didn't go around shooting lasers or anything like that.

-They're just punching with state-of-the-art technology, lol.

They fought in close combat with their steel bodies without properly using any weapons.

Among them, there were robots that used magic, so robot engineers were amazed at what kind of hybrid they were.

-If Sung JiHan's ban is lifted, he'll just win easily, right?

-Was the VIP membership option a 50 percent ban evasion? It was a real scam, lol.

-I have to get my fix before the membership period ends.

-Please win again this time, so that we don't see a future where humanity is destroyed.

-Yeah... I want to live long, too.

People who have become more sensitive to victory or defeat scenarios after the scenario of humanity's destruction.

Viewers watched with anxious hearts whether Sung JiHan could actually evade the ban.

And then, the first game where both teams' coaches entered.

[Welcome, humanity's coach.]

On the other side of the table in the coach's room.

A steel bipedal robot, about the size of a human, bowed and greeted.

"Yeah. Nice to meet you too..."

[I heard from the World Tree Union. Humanity's first place is incredibly strong.]

The World Tree Union... Did they contact other races to ban the first place?

"Isn't the first place supposed to be strong?"

Still, Coach Davis shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed.

[So, we will ban the first place.]

The robot coach didn't hesitate and immediately banned the first place.

Banning the first place will be the basic strategy in matches against humanity from now on.

However.

[The player who is ranked first among the players in the ban list will be banned.]

"Oh..."

An unexpected message came to Coach Davis.

The ban evasion effect of the VIP membership, which had raised people's expectations, was activated right in the first game.

"Off to a good start."

Coach Davis raised the corner of his mouth.
