The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 183

The fragment of a destroyed star, with gold embedded in the Seal of Chaos.

It appeared as rough and rigid metal.

It looked too ordinary to be called a fragment of a star.

Sung JiHan had doubts about whether this was really a fragment of a destroyed star.

[You have cleared an epic quest.]

[A reward will be given.]

[You have obtained 1,000,000 achievement points.]

[The level cap has been increased to 50.]

"That's right."

When the quest clear notification appeared, Sung JiHan was able to feel relieved.

"It took a long time to form a team, but it was easy to break through once we descended."

The process of breaking the seal stone at the bottom of the Chaos Rift.

It wasn't a process that took a long time, so Sung JiHan thought it was cleared easily.

However, no player other than him could clear it.

The aura of death that spewed out from the Chaos Rift was so powerful that no player could survive in it for long.

"But I remember there was another reward...."

Achievement points and a level limit increase of +50.

It feels somewhat lacking with just that.

As Sung JiHan was pondering, wondering why there was no additional reward.

[Fragment of a destroyed star that has been demoted to the Bronze League.]

[NO.4212 'Humanity' and the synchronization rate of the extinct race is over 50%. You can absorb the fragment of the destroyed star.]

[Will you absorb the fragment of the destroyed star?]

*Caution* There may be unexpected side effects.

Demoted from Bronze and a star with a synchronization rate of over 50% with humanity.

"Were they also a low-level race?"

Sung JiHan thought so and pressed 'Yes'.

With the income he just obtained, he felt somewhat unsatisfied, so he decided to endure the side effects.

Then.

Shuuuu...!

The small piece of metal, the fragment of the star, was instantly sucked into Sung JiHan's body.

"This place...!"

"It's warm."

"This body, it's similar to our race...!"

The intense voice of the original soul began to echo like a hallucination.

Unlike those who were merging into chimeras while howling.

Each one revealed a strong presence.

"Take this body away!"

"Yes... I can't stay trapped in this cold prison forever!"

"Hehe, hehehe... I'll use it for a year first!"

"Where! I'm first!"

The foreign energy that entered Sung JiHan's body.

It spread into four branches in an instant, trying to take control of him.

For an ordinary player, it would be an intense possession by the original soul that would happen in an instant.

But.

"...Are these guys crazy?"

To Sung JiHan, who gained a soul, it was an attempt that had no effect at all.

He had already gained control over his body, naturally controlling the energy that sprouted from the seed of life given by the elves.

The resistance of the original soul was easily overcome.

[Hey, wait a minute....]

[Why isn't it moving....]

[Ha, no, no. Hey! Just kidding. Hehe. I'm grateful for saving me by using my body!]

[Yeah, yeah! I won't eat you. Instead, give me another body! We'll give you information! We'll show you how our star was destroyed...! We'll show you the end of the world!]

"Enough."

Hasn't Sung JiHan already seen the end of the world himself?

He couldn't release these dangerous guys to other humans just to obtain that kind of information.

Sung JiHan completely crushed the foreign energy inside.

"How...how did you withstand that...!"

"I, who will become the Holy Seat...!!"

With that, the group of souls left, leaving behind their final testament.

Sung JiHan quickly suppressed the rebellion and looked at the broken seal stone with a dissatisfied look.

"Absorbing this won't give me any real gains."

It would be better to just quickly break the battlefield of chaos.

While he was making that judgment.

"The abilities of the stars, the fragments of the destroyed star will be obtained and strengthened."

"The growth speed of the star's spirit will increase."

"The 'candidate for the Holy Seat' of the extinct race will indirectly experience their deep emotions until the end."

"You can invest 10 ability points in the star's spirit."

"What...?"

Sung JiHan widened his eyes.

Achievement points of one million or an increase in level limit were trivial.

He was given something that could be called a true reward.

* * *

December 15th.

The atmosphere of the rehearsal expedition, which had started off well, was gradually fading.

-Oh, another failure?

-Sung JiHan, stop tripping us up, seriously ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-No...if the sky and the earth are reversed, it's always a disaster.

-Did you add a flying magician and prepare items?

-The warriors keep falling because they're not used to it ㅡㅡ

-And because you added a magician, our defense has weakened....

Even on the first day, I thought I would clear the game within a week because I almost finished it.

But even after two weeks of continuous progress, there was no sign of clearing.

As expected, the biggest problem was how to deal with the reversal of the sky and the earth.

Whether using flight magic or preparing shield bindings to withstand the impact of falling to the ground.

Because their hands and feet didn't match, there were many casualties.

And at this timing, the flying race attacked.

If more than half of the main force is destroyed here.

In the end, the main force couldn't hold out before achieving 10,000 points.

Many methods were devised to solve this, and among them, there was an opinion to ask Sung JiHan to use the Heavenly Reversal.

-If I save the main force, I will run out of energy. I can't use my power unlimitedly either.

Sung JiHan expressed his reluctance to do that.

In fact, what he was doing now was already equivalent to 500 people.

It was too much to ask for more in this situation, even if they were bus passengers.

So the Battle.net Federation couldn't demand more from Sung JiHan and focused only on finding the cause.

"I analyzed it and found that the Asian players were the first to die. We need to adjust the player ratio by region. Focus on regions with better control."

"Asian Sung JiHan has a lot to say about taking the bus, haha."

-But the Chinese warriors seem to die quite easily....

-That's racial discrimination!

-What racial discrimination? I'm Asian too.

A cleverly orchestrated trolling by the People's Assembly.

Their actions so far have only given the impression of "they die quickly," but they haven't been clearly caught or exposed.

However.

The upper echelons of the People's Assembly, who were actually responsible for the incident, were struggling with how to handle this issue.

"The movement of global public opinion is not to be taken lightly. If it becomes known that we ruined the game, we will face a strong backlash..."

For 15 days, a live broadcast of chaos spread worldwide.

During these two weeks, Sung JiHan was receiving all the spotlight alone.

He was the strongest player responsible for humanity's expedition.

Even if he single-handedly overwhelmed the enemy race with overwhelming power.

In the end, he was an unfortunate warrior whose allies kept dying and failing the game.

-...sigh.

In the past week, with the expedition force dwindling to less than 10 percent, every time the message for withdrawal appeared after 15 minutes.

His eyes filled with frustration, he looked into the empty space and let out a short sigh, which became a hot topic.

-ㅠㅠㅠㅠ You sighed again ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Sorry, Sung....

-But something... It's cool to see you like that after sweeping the enemies as usual, hehe....

-That's just the basic image, isn't it? Kekekeke

Continuing to show the image of the last surviving warrior of humanity.

Sung JiHan's channel, which gained a surge of fans worldwide regardless of age or gender.

Already having a large number of subscribers, his channel was once again experiencing rapid growth during this opportunity.

"If what we did is exposed in this situation, there is a concern of strong condemnation worldwide."

"Wouldn't it be better to stop the suicides now...?"

"I can't sleep these days because I'm worried about this being exposed."

The moderate faction of the People's Assembly suggested covering it up at this point.

"Oh, should we surrender to such criticism?"

"Did we make such unreasonable demands to the waiting guild in the first place? Didn't they make absurd accusations of sexual harassment against King TsuChong? "

"King TsuChong was wrong! He did the same thing in our country...!"

"That's right! Be careful with your words! Are you going to insult people from the same country by believing their lies?"

The hardline faction, which constituted the majority of the People's Assembly, had a strong attitude.

"Let's send people to the waiting guild again! If we let Wang Lin join, we will definitely support them so that they won't die."

"...Are you suggesting that we admit we are the culprits and negotiate with them?"

"Who said that! We can indirectly talk about different support than before. We can even offer more flying magic scrolls. Let's just be subtle."

"That's right. If the People's Assembly doesn't have any power, they won't be able to clear the mission either. It's just a matter of supporting each other. Do we have to be dragged around by the guild of a small Eastern country?"

"Fine...."

The moderate faction couldn't oppose the majority opinion.

They simply said.

"Then we will send a negotiation representative. We can't have a repeat of last time."

"Hehe... King TsuChong said he wants to retire..."

"No, are you causing trouble again?!"

"Fine, do it on your side!"

And so, the negotiation team dispatched to the waiting guild.

Unlike the previous King TsuChong, they showed a certain level of courtesy.

"So... if we accept Wang Lin, will you provide substantial support to the expedition force?"

"Yes, that's correct. We will also include an apology for the past incident."

"Hmm...."

Upon hearing an attractive proposal from a female executive of the People's Assembly, Lee Ha-yeon considered it.

[Owner, how should I respond?]

Sung JiHan informed him of this.

Because the Ongeon faction did not show any signs of attempting suicide, Lee Ha-yeon, who did not expect trolling from the Inminhoe faction, thought.

[The proposal itself is fine, but...]

He felt attracted to the conditions they presented.

However.

"I can't just let it go like that."

Sung JiHan had no intention of accepting whatever conditions they proposed.

"Now, should I bring this to an end?"

He had collected a total of six fragments of the star.

The level limit did not increase here, but he could add additional points to the most important Mu-hon.

His Mu-hon stat had reached 200 without him realizing.

"The experience of the alien race was quite novel."

The profoundness possessed by the candidate of the extinct race.

Experiencing the enlightenment they possessed was actually too short.

After erasing the soul, only about a minute remained.

He could only briefly feel the experience of them using their most powerful abilities.

Among them, there was only one warrior who used power like Sung JiHan.

Since it was mainly mages, supporters, and archers, there were many parts that he couldn't relate to.

"But the feeling of controlling a different race's body broadened my perspective."

A race with three arms.

A race that looked at the world with four eyes.

A race with wings.

The experiences they had gone through were completely different from what humans could feel.

Although their profoundness only briefly brushed past Sung JiHan.

The feeling itself of exerting power as a different race.

Paved the way for the growth of his Mu-hon.

So, using all the additional points he had saved up, his stats were now back at 200.

"You can no longer enhance the power of the 'Fragment of the Doomed Star'."

After confirming this message yesterday.

Sung JiHan had made up his mind to end the game in the chaos battlefield.

And before ending the game.

He planned to show the Inminhoe faction, who had made an unreasonable attempt, a taste of their own medicine.

"Battle Market."

He opened the Battle Market and bought the item he had been thinking about.

[First-person perspective sensory sharing ticket]

An item that allows the user's perspective and senses to be shared through video, which can be relayed to the Battle Tube.

A disposable item, with a time limit of 30 minutes per ticket.

A ticket that allows everything he sees and hears to be shared.

To completely capture the sounds of the Inminhoe faction gossiping among themselves.

The existing BattleNet relay system was not enough.

He had to fully capture Sung JiHan's senses.

"Thank you, Inminhoe."

Thanks to them, the game didn't end too quickly.

He was able to absorb the stats from the Fragment of the Doomed Star to the fullest.

So, he should repay them.

Sung JiHan smirked as he looked at the ticket.
