Chapter 248
Chapter 248
Hyeonu was inwardly in a hurry . No, it was truly urgent . He had heard that the other guilds were challenging to conquer Cruise Mountain one after another .
‘I can’t let them take the spotlight here . ’
[6th Main Scenario Ending—Cruise Mountain Conqueror]
Hyeonu started streaming right away without any waiting time . It was an expression of his desire to not let the finale of the scenario be taken by other guilds . “Hello everyone . I’m pleased to see you . Today is the ending point of the main scenario . I will smash the monument at the top of Cruise Mountain . ”
-4, 5, 6—he has stood alone in three consecutive main scenarios .
-Do you see Alley Leader sharing his things? He might share in reality, but he isn’t cute in Arena .
-‘Your main scenario is mine, my main scenario is also mine . ’
“Everyone admits that this is a table of food that I’ll eat, right? I don’t have to be dishonest since I will eat it all . ”
-I admit it .
-Eat it yourself .
-Who said what? Act alone . . .
Hyeonu invested a much shorter amount of time than usual in the opening; it took less than 10 minutes . It was really short considering that it usually took 20 to 30 minutes .
-It’s fast today .
-By the way, where is Tang-E?
-Let’s start with Guest Tang-E .
-Guest? Isn’t he the host?
-I know that the host of this stream is Tang-E .
‘These guys?!’
Hyeonu tried to hold back his anger . There was no time for him to get pulled along with the audience . “I won’t attract any aggro today . It is because my mother always told me ‘don’t quarrel at the table’ . I’m a filial son, so I will listen to my mother . ”
-Yes, the mama’s boy .
-That table is really different . It is a big deal if it is overturned .
Hyeonu silently climbed the mountain while ignoring the teasing of the viewers . He didn’t show any special reaction, so the viewers stopped teasing and focused on the stream .
-What will happen in the future?
-He will climb the mountain .
-Then?
-He has to climb the mountain?
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ . It is a bond that can’t be broken . ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Just like the audience said, Hyeonu was climbing up the mountain . However, Cruise Mountain was quite peculiar, and it didn’t look like he was climbing a mountain .
-This is a mountain, right?
-Is a mountain normally so flat?
-The mountain is like a staircase .
‘It feels like there is something nasty?’
Hyeonu glanced at the chat window and felt something was strange . He hadn’t known it when he saw Cruise Mountain from a distance, but he felt it when he was climbing it . There were too many hills . Yet when he went up further, a plains area appeared . Then at the end of the plains, there was a hill again . The two things repeated endlessly like a Moebius strip .
“Is it my mistake? Why are there so many hills and plains?”
-Yes, you’re not mistaken .
-It is real .
-It will show up soon?
-Ah, it came . It came . ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
The viewers laughed . They were looking forward to what they could see .
‘This . . . ’
In an Arena community survey, the worst field wasn’t an extreme zone such as a volcano or an iceberg but an open field with nowhere to hide . Hills and plains—these two fields had one peculiarity . It was a monster wave . Monsters constantly appeared in them .
During battles, other monsters would be attracted by the sound and smell of blood and then join in the fight . It was an infinite repetition of this pattern . There was no place to escape, and there was nowhere to hide . Either the monsters in the surroundings would die or the players would be logged out—the result was always one of these two .
Most resulted in the latter .
“Ah, seriously . . . This is frustrating . I liked that the mountain wasn’t too high . . . ”
Hyeonu wanted to deny the sight in front of him . There were three monsters approaching him . By the time these ones were killed, new monsters would appear .

“Still, what can I do? I thought the main scenario was bland, but it gave me such a dark thing at the end . It’s very good . This is called being hit in the back of the head . ”
Hyeonu smiled and pulled out the Mysterious Sky Sword .
“Tang-E, you can see that there is nowhere to hide, so there is no need to hide today . Can you see that over there? The top? We just need to go there . ”
Hyeonu’s left hand pointed at the top of Cruise Mountain in the distance . To be precise, he was pointing was at the place where a dark blue pillar could be seen .
“I understand, Master dude . Believe in Tang-E . I will carry you . ”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Tang-E is the carry ㅋㅋㅋ
-Where did he learn that? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ .
-Someone must’ve taught it to him ㅋㅋㅋ
“Hey, who taught you such strange words? Who did it? I will grab them and punch a hole in their head . . . ” Hyeonu focused on the strange word that Tang-E had learned, instead of the serious expression on Tang-E’s face .
Carry . . .
Tang-E would be the carry .
‘What damn jerk?! It is fine if you learn such a thing, but teaching it to Tang-E . . . ’
Tang-E smiled and replied like he knew nothing, “That man taught me . The frivolous man . Master dude’s friend . ”
‘Kwon Yeongchan, that jerk . . . ’ Hyeonu gritted his teeth .
There were many things he wanted to say to Tang-E, but he could only say short words due to the monsters approaching him .
“Don’t use it . ” Hyeonu left only this sentence as he ran toward the monsters .

As everyone knew well, monsters appeared constantly . If an ogre died, a troll would appear . Then if the troll died, a one-eyed giant would appear . If the giant died, there would be a giant monkey in its place . They appeared repeatedly . However, the situation wasn’t as urgent as it seemed . In fact, it was rather relaxed .
‘The experience is good, and my proficiency is rising . ’
Hyeonu’s magic power was virtually unlimited . This was due to the built-in effect of Hyeonu’s gauntlets, Memories of a Murderer . It restored physical strength and magic power by an amount that was equivalent to 5% of the damage inflicted on the enemy . The higher the level of the monsters, the higher the health . Of course, even if it was 5%, the value of the monster’s health was greater than the amount of magic power held by Hyeonu .
In addition, there was no cooldown time for the Mysterious Sky Demonic Art, of which the effects were changed due to the Book of Random Luck Enhancement . Hyeonu could use Mysterious Sky Range endlessly as long as his magic power supported it, and his control over it was strong . In short, this was a chasing hunt . It was a very thankful situation where the monsters flocked to him on their own .

-What is this? It looks like a person?
-Why is a person here?
-Is it a different guild?
-Who? How many guilds have come here?
‘Who came?’
Hyeonu checked the chat window even with a giant tiger’s paws in front of him .
‘Oh, really?’
A series of people were quietly approaching Hyeonu . His senses that were sharpened by Mysterious Sky allowed him to feel it . It was just that Hyeonu didn’t see them with his own eyes, so he couldn’t confirm their identity . The tiger attacked in a timely manner and created an opportunity for Hyeonu to observe them naturally . So he avoided the tiger’s paws and turned to the side .
‘Huh?’ Hyeonu saw them for the first time .
It wasn’t one of the large guilds that Hyeonu had recruited . They didn’t even have the emblem of a famous large guild .
‘How did they get here?’
Hyeonu couldn’t understand it, but he needed to urgently deal with the tiger in front of him, so he took his attention away from them .

“Tony, how long do we have to wait?” A woman in a pure white robe asked her leader, Tony . No, he was urged . “We’ve already waited for over an hour . Can’t we go now? We don’t have much time . ”
It was Rania who spoke . They had been observing Hyeonu’s battle for an hour while hiding, but they had no time left . They weren’t the only ones here .
‘In particular, New World . . . ’
If a bit more time passed, a large guild might appear to interfere with them .
“We have to go when we are certain . Don’t you know what happened last time? He is a monster . In addition, the money we took for this job is a big amount . If we fail, we can only suck our hands for the next few months . Is that still okay?” The man called Tony replied calmly to Rania’s words .
“He has already been fighting for an hour . Even a magician would run out of magic power in this situation . He hasn’t drank any potions, so it seems that he has run out of potions,” Rania stated .
In fact, Hyeonu had not drunk potions . They had overlooked one thing . During this one hour, Hyeonu hadn’t slowed down his hunting speed . No, he hadn’t even been hit once . The complex emotions in their minds covered their eyes .

‘Rania’s words aren’t wrong . ’
Still, there was nothing wrong with prudence . The money they’d spent to get near here was close to hundreds of thousands of dollars . Most of the money was in the hands of the Venom Guild . It was a condition to guide them to this place and Cruise Mountain . Nevertheless, it was well worth the money . They knew the exact way thanks to their connections with other large guilds and arrived comfortably .
‘By the way, why didn’t the Venom Guild take the commission? They must’ve received it before us . ’
The Venom Guild ranked first compared to Tony’s Team Shadow . Others might not know it, but Tony knew the Venom Guild was above Five Stars’ Team Hell . In fact, they were the best in the industry .
‘Well, thanks to that, we got the chance to make money . ’
Tony scoffed at the Venom Guild’s stupid choice .
“Let’s go now . Are you ready?”
Rania nodded at Tony’s words . They had used many boosters, including buffs .
“Let’s have a hot party tonight . ”
It would be a party stained with Alley Leader’s blood .

“Karen, have you really given up? You aren’t going to take this money?” Rose, the priest of the Venom Guild, asked Karen, the master of the Venom Guild . Her expression was playful .
“Rose, don’t mess around . Why are you asking again when you know it all? Why don’t you look at him? It is over when we get involved . It is bad luck . ” Karen frowned .
Alley Leader was a man who should never be touched . Someone who shouldn’t be mentioned or associated with—that was Alley Leader .
Crimson, the big man who saw the two people talk, scoffed, “Did you want to go? Are you an M? You should’ve said so earlier . ”
Unable to refute Crimson’s teasing or Karen’s irritation, Rose got busy making excuses .
“No, I was just kidding . Of course, I know . It is still vivid in my memories . Look, I have goosebumps just thinking about it again,” Rose said and held out her right arm .
Indeed, her right arm was full of goosebumps . She looked into space and spoke in a voice full of energy, “We can hunt to a certain extent . We can kill the black-maned lions . However, we are a party, and he is alone . ”
“It’s fine, we’ve received hundreds of thousands of dollars and can hold on until they show up . In a few hours, we’ll know that this is the smart choice . ” Karen patted Rose’s shoulder .
‘Team Shadow will hit Alley Leader in the back?’
It was a ridiculous notion . Could they really kill Alley Leader just because he had no magic power? Excessive greed was bound to bring disaster .
“You need to know yourself,” Karen said with her mouth twisting strangely .
