Chapter 233
Shortly after the league ended, Mascherano threatened his teammates, who wanted to rest, and accessed Arena .
‘Today, we will break through . ’
He didn’t know how Alley Leader did it, but in order for Red Bull America to move to the next area, they needed to kill the monsters called the purple ogres .
“Today, we will kill them using any means,” Mascherano declared in a solemn voice . However, he only received cold gazes and criticism in return .
“You previously guaranteed our rest time . This is a garbage dealer . ”
“It is your fault that we can’t kill them, Mascherano . ”
“You really don’t have a video of this monster among the ones Alley Leader sent you?”
The other professional gamers of Red Bull America were furious with Mascherano who limited their rest .
“Why are you doing this? We watched all the videos together . In any case, we have to kill them before we can move onto the next area . It has already been three days . Aren’t we gamers for Red Bull? Didn’t the New York idiots kill them? Shouldn’t we keep up?” As always, Mascherano deflected the accusations of his team members with a soft attitude, then he cleverly changed the topic .
“They’ve already moved onto the next area?”
“We can’t lose to the idiots of New York . ”
Red Bull America competed against the New York Warriors . The reason for that was simple . They were part of the same American League, and the two teams were first and second respectively in the league .
The New York Warriors were number one of course .

“Everyone, I’m going to follow them now . Of course, I’m not going to stab them in the back . I just want to let you know how scary this place is . ”
Hyeonu was watching the dozens of Red Bull professional gamers, including Mascherano, as they walked .
-Yes, I don’t believe it .
-He is still dreaming of fishing . We won’t get caught anymore .
-Give it up and reveal the true level here .
“Everyone, if you don’t believe me, then believe them—Red Bull America . Yes? Don’t you know? They are Red Bull, one of the leading teams of the United States . ”
The perspective of the stream had changed . The display of Hyeonu’s surroundings was synchronized with his vision, and the viewers could see what Hyeonu saw .
-Is it the real Red Bull?
-Isn’t that Mascherano?
-Guys, are we being cheated once again?
-He even invited Red Bull? Are they all trying to deceive us?
The viewers who saw Red Bull America decided they were being deceived once more . They wondered if Alley Leader had invited Red Bull America, one of the best teams in the world .
‘I’m going to have to talk to Mascherano . ’
It was the minimum courtesy . Mascherano was someone Hyeonu knew, but politeness should still be maintained .
-To Mascherano: Mascherano? It is Alley Leader . I’m streaming right now, and I accidentally came across you . Hyeonu carefully sent Mascherano a whisper . Of course, the voice that was sent to the stream was turned off . It was so that the viewers couldn’t hear it . However, the viewers didn’t feel it was strange as it was common sense for a person to remain quiet when following someone .
-From Mascherano: Huh? Me?
Mascherano instinctively turned his head at the whisper he abruptly received .
-To Mascherano: Stop . Don’t look for me!! I am streaming . Please pretend you don’t know . I have my reasons for this .
When he heard Alley Leader’s urgent whisper, Mascherano managed to prevent himself from turning back, stopping his head to look at the colleague next to him instead .
“What are you looking at? If you have time to watch me, why not try doing a simulation against those monsters? If we are destroyed like last time, we will be sleeping in a coffin today, not a bed . ”
It was Alley Leader’s secret yet Mascherano was forced to hear such spiteful words .
“Sigh . . . ” Hyeonu sighed with relief as he saw it from a distance .
His stream would’ve become a mess if Mascherano made contact with him .
-From Mascherano: I understand . Now I’m on my way to hunt the purple ogre . Please help me if it becomes dangerous .
‘Help him?’ Hyeonu shook his head at Mascherano, who asked something so natural . Hyeonu was currently streaming, so it was undoubtedly impossible for him to just pass by if Mascherano was in a crisis . After all, more than 10 million viewers were watching .
-To Mascherano: Absolutely . I’ll show up at a dangerous moment .
Mascherano smiled as he received Hyeonu’s answer . “We will unconditionally kill it today . No, it isn’t unconditional . It is certain . ”
After Mascherano’s confirmation, his fellow players looked at Mascherano like he was crazy .
“What are you saying all of a sudden?”
“What is this confidence? Did you get a sudden realization?”
“He seems to have received a whisper . Who is helping? Is it Alley Leader?”
Mascherano nodded with a face full of confidence . The other players cocked their heads at the same time .
“Did you learn that Alley Leader is coming?”
“Alley Leader is behind us . ”
“What?”
Mascherano’s players tried to turn their heads, so Mascherano quickly opened his arms and wrapped them around the neck of the two players standing on both sides of him . The gazes that were aimed at the surroundings naturally turned back to Mascherano .
“Alley Leader is streaming . He discovered us by coincidence and is now following sneakily . He must have his reasons for doing so . Just think of it as having an invincible bodyguard . Don’t worry about it too much . ”
Everyone nodded . An invincible bodyguard—there were no other appropriate words to describe Alley Leader in the current situation . They had nothing to be afraid of with him behind them .
‘This is an opportunity . ’
In fact, today’s hunt was just to gain experience with the purple ogres . Mascherano actually had little idea of reaching the field beyond the purple ogres . The purple ogres were too powerful . In fact, one purple ogre didn’t matter . The problem was . . .
‘The biggest problem is that three of them appear at once . ’
The issue was that there were no melee players who could face three purple ogres simultaneously .
If they had Reina, then they might be able to do it even if it was very tiring . However . . .
‘There is also the league schedule . . . ’
There was a complete conflict . Red Bull rested when the Warriors played, and the Warriors rested when Red Bull played . Mascherano barely managed to make time in his schedule for his last visit to Reina . At this time, a huge opportunity arrived because Alley Leader encountered Red Bull America .
There was a chance for them to reach the next field without Reina .
***
“Everyone, the battle seems to have begun,” Hyeonu whispered in a low voice . It was as Hyeonu said . Mascherano and Red Bull America had started the purple ogre raid . They were going against three purple ogres .
-Isn’t this completely different from the lions just now?
-Did the ogres look so scary before?
-Look at those ugly faces . You will die if you get hit .
-Hey, what is with those clubs . . . ? I think they’re the size of five poles put together?
Viewers were overwhelmed by the appearance of the huge purple ogres . The black-maned lions and the mountain harpies were huge and gave off overwhelming pressure, but the purple ogres went beyond that . It was like watching boss monsters .
“It seems ridiculous, but they aren’t boss monsters . Then what are they? They are named monsters . That’s it . ”
-What? It is a named monster?
-What are you talking about, Mr . Streamer? How is that not a boss?
-Are you lying again?
The viewers denied Hyeonu’s words . How could such monsters only be named monsters? They should at least be boss monsters .
“It is true . Didn’t I tell you? This is a very difficult place . The purple ogre doesn’t count as a boss monster . ”
It was true .
The title ‘Solo Raider’ wasn’t activated when Hyeonu fought the purple ogres in the past .
“Oops . Right when I’m speaking, Mascherano just fired a strong pure energy at the abdomen of one of the purple ogres . He was hit in return, but isn’t the important thing that he hit the monster?”
Hyeonu forgot the concept of following them secretly, and the viewers also participated in it .
-Oh, isn’t it dangerous?
-The healer’s divine power must be exhausted . The heals are stopping .
-The tankers and damage dealers are still fine .
-The magicians seem to be running out of magic power . They can’t use CC or high-grade magic?
Then the situation reached the climax . Out of the 12 players, there were three priests and two magicians . Consequently, they didn’t have the power to continue fighting the purple ogre as before and fled the battlefield .
“Did you see? This is the beginning of the Balder Mountains . Level 100? That is an insult to the Balder Mountains . ”
-Stop the white noise and save them quickly .
-It isn’t too late to bluff after saving them!
-Save Red Bull!! Save America!!!
-Save the stupid Mascherano!!!
The viewers urged Alley Leader, who was too relaxed despite the urgent situation . Nevertheless, Alley Leader wasn’t in a hurry . His body remained motionless as he moved his mouth .
“Do you know that Mithrilman? I admire Mithrilman . He is a paid hero . Isn’t he the perfect hero in this day and age?”
The viewers realized something after hearing Hyeonu’s words . Why wasn’t Alley Leader moving? It was because the ones protesting were the fans of Red Bull America, not the viewers .
-Hah . . .
-He is being like this . . .
-Red Bull fans, what are you doing? You have to use a gold coin tribute .
The quick-witted viewers noticed it and gave advice . Red Bull fans had to use gold coins if they wanted Red Bull America to be saved . Only give and take could save Red Bull .
-Red Bull Master has gifted you 100 gold coins .
-Fire Bull has gifted you 99 gold coins .
-Wonder America has gifted you 123 gold coins .
Hyeonu stared at the chat window . He couldn’t keep his eyes off the emoticons in the shape of gold coins that kept rising .
‘Is this the power of Red Bull America?’
The gold coins were great . He could feel it without looking . His bank balance was becoming a bigger number .
-You got it, so get to work, this Alley Leader!
-Mascherano is about to die!! He will die if he is hit one more time .
“Wait a minute . Really wait a minute . My energy was charged, but my equipment isn’t here . I will use my final weapon . Tang-E, come out . ”
Tang-E appeared in the magic circle with his paws raised as he shouted, “I am here today . ”
The atmosphere was good, but it was only temporary . Tang-E was unable to bear Hyeonu’s gaze . His ears turned hot and used buffs as he moved into Hyeonu’s arms .
“Then I, Alley Leader, will come out now . ”
