The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 329

Sung JiHan's BattleTube channel.

There, scenes of one-sided massacre were being shown.

Whoosh!

"What, what's happening!"

"This is... Dragon Breath?"

After rising to the Master League, Sung JiHan only matched with alien races.

As soon as the game started, a huge fire was shot from the sky.

With such a one-sided attack from afar, the game ended.

Viewers commented on this.

- "It's already over? I saw the notification and went to the bathroom for a moment ㅠㅠ"

- "Did you see the big thing? Even when I'm taking a dump, I watch it on my phone ㅉㅉ"

- "These days, regular matchmaking games take at most 10 minutes ㅋㅋㅋ"

After the battle with the Seat of the Holy See in Gangnam, Seoul, Sung JiHan matched in regular BattleNet games for a week.

By the matchmaking system, he was matched with strong players even in the Master League.

But the result was always Sung JiHan's complete victory.

- "Even if they're aliens, they'll be opponents for Sung JiHan? You caught the Seat of the Holy See too."

- "Is that for real? ㄷㄷ"

- "Yeah, the Sword King himself said that the Seat of the Holy See appeared in Gangnam."

- "If he even defeated the Seat of the Holy See, other guys will just be easy wins when he meets them ㅋㅋㅋㅋ"

- "Ah, the screen is getting dark."

- "Is it already over... ㅠㅠ"

Before the viewers' conversation could fully develop, the channel closed as the game ended.

Games in the past week had always been like this, so the viewers were feeling frustrated.

Meanwhile.

"I finished so quickly, I leveled up."

Sung JiHan, who came out of the game, examined his growth trend.

Normally, when reaching the Master League, the speed of leveling up was supposed to be much slower.

But with the VIP membership and various buffs, Sung JiHan's growth speed was still quite fast.

"Level 360..."

Sung JiHan looked at the ability section in the status window.

Name: Sung JiHan

Level: 360

Affiliation: Master League - Space 3

Soul: 299

Void: 150

Enemy: 17

Eternity (Incomplete): 2

Many ability stats had grown.

However, Sung JiHan furrowed his brow while looking at them.

"Soul is still stuck at 299."

The soul, which had been increasing even without investing any remaining stat points, remained unchanged at 299.

When it reached 299, there was no movement or growth.

In a state where there were no remaining points to invest, Sung JiHan had no choice but to leave the ability of the star alone for now.

"The void shouldn't be raised any further."

In a way, raising the stat Void was the easiest.

With the owner of the arena not reclaiming it, just wearing the Void Processing Facility on his face caused the stat to steadily increase.

However, this ability should not exceed its limit.

Originally, the limit was 200, but it greatly increased through the VIP membership.

"But the exact increase in the capacity limit is not shown."

In addition, the VIP membership will be reclaimed after 6 months.

Until a way to dramatically increase the capacity limit of the void is prepared, investing in this ability was absolutely not allowed.

"The Eternal Stat doesn't even blink."

An incomplete Eternal Stat.

After reaching 2 initially, there was no growth at all.

It was an ability that could infinitely draw the vitality corresponding to Eternal 2, but perhaps because the effect was good, there were no remaining points to invest and there was no intention to increase the stats.

"Among the four stats, there was only one ability that could actually be raised."

As long as the Unhoned didn't increase, there was only a small amount to invest from the remaining points given.

Sung JiHan invested all the remaining points he had accumulated and raised it to 17.

Certainly, due to the concentrated investment, the power of fire became stronger than usual, and it became easier to input the code.

However, Sung JiHan couldn't be satisfied.

"I have to break through the wall of Unhoned 299 to become stronger...."

Refusing the owner of the arena's proposal and the existence of Abyss holding Nuna Sung Ji-ah captive.

To fight against him, who possessed the power of a higher-level Holy Seat, Sung JiHan needed stronger power.

There was only one ability that could currently be grown.

He had to break through the limit of the Unhoned quickly.

"I need to study more about the Complete Annihilation."

When the Complete Annihilation is completed, the Unhoned that increased in stats.

The first Complete Annihilation, the Iron Blood Cross, was in a state where the analysis was roughly finished after obtaining the Longinus' Spear.

Although he tried to apply it in his own way from the second one, the complete mastery was difficult to say.

In addition.

"The third Complete Annihilation, the Radiant Flash, has a vague method of operation."

The Radiant Flash, a fire attribute Complete Annihilation.

This referred to the state where power was temporarily restored before dying, and it didn't fit well with the martial art structure called Complete Annihilation.

In addition, the activation condition was unclear whether it had to be before dying.

Even after Sung JiHan thought of the name, he couldn't grasp the method of operation of this martial art.

"It won't be difficult to promote to Master League, but if I can't continue to grow, challenging the owner of Abyss is impossible. I have to break through the wall of Unhoned no matter what."

While Sung JiHan was thinking about the Unhoned that stopped at 299.

Smart.

"Come in."

"It's me, Owner."

Iha Yeon, who was outside the room, came in as soon as the game was over.

* * *

The state of Lee Ha-yeon, who entered the room, was clearly not good at a glance.

Her eyes were swollen compared to a week ago, and her face looked gaunt.

However, her eyes were still shining brightly.

"Ha-yeon, did you not sleep?"

"Yes. Watching alien channels through Owner-nim's BattleTube is a whole new world..."

"Ah, there really is everything..."

Behind Lee Ha-yeon, Yoon Se-ah entered the room together.

She also looked tired, but unlike Ha-yeon, it didn't immediately show on her face, perhaps because she was a high-level player.

"A proposal I saw recently was 'For just 10 million GP, I will help a resident escape from the BattleNet.' I wanted to experiment if it was real."

"That proposal, was it real?"

"No. The ending was that the portal led to the World Tree Elf Laboratory."

The World Tree Elves.

Were they really doing such things?

"What's scarier is that the World Tree Elf who left a reply saying 'Since you maliciously tarnished the honor of the World Tree Union, I will never let this go.' in that video."

"Why?"

"The alien who uploaded videos on their channel once or twice a week hasn't uploaded anything for 100 years since that reply."

Were they silenced?

Indeed, the influence of the World Tree Elves is tremendous.

"There were many other interesting things I wanted to see, but Ha-yeon unni said to focus for now."

"Yes, what's important now is increasing Owner-nim's subscribers."

Ha-yeon let out a deep sigh.

"When I first looked around the alien BattleTube through Owner-nim's account, it didn't seem too difficult to increase subscribers. There were plenty of contents overflowing in the alien world, and although there were powerful players, they weren't as powerful as Owner-nim. It was rare for someone who wasn't a powerful player to defeat a powerful player. It seemed like there were endless contents to create. However... there was a fatal problem with BattleTube."

"A problem?"

"In BattleTube... there is too much racial discrimination."

"Racial discrimination?"

When Sung JiHan looked puzzled, Ha-yeon explained further.

"The races in the BattleNet that interact with aliens are at least intermediate level in terms of evaluation... They don't treat the lower-level races properly. They don't even think about looking for their contents. So, I thoroughly looked for broadcasts from lower-level races. But the subscribers didn't increase at all."

"Is that so?"

"Yes. And even if I watched, it was mostly self-deprecating videos of the lower-level races. It felt like they were saying, 'As expected, they are inferior races...'"

"I see, I understand."

Based on Ha-yeon's analysis, the Shadow Queen in Sung JiHan's arms suddenly spoke up.

"Not just anyone can watch the alien BattleTube. As a player, you have to be at a level where you can interact with alien races. And the races that have reached that level are usually intermediate or higher... They are the ones who have climbed up by trampling on the lower-level races in their own leagues. For them, the lower-level races are inherently objects of contempt."

"Really? Then isn't it strange that I, who am from the lowest level, have over a hundred subscribers?"

"I see... I didn't pay much attention because the number was small. It's amazing that you, who are from the lowest level, have gathered over a hundred subscribers."

Alien viewers of BattleTube who treat the lower-level races as insignificant.

It wasn't easy to gain their attention through normal means.

"Moreover, because the races are so diverse and the living ecosystems are so different, their interests are all different... It's even harder to gain the interest of aliens with the restriction of being from the lowest level."

"I see."

"However, there is one common interest that can bring all these players together."

As she said that, Ha-yeon drew a circle with her finger.

"Right, it's GP."

"No matter how high you climb, it seems like GP is still lacking. Videos related to GP are all explosively popular."

"When you climb up, the amount of GP required for resurrection increases. And there are maps with strange penalties that require 10 times the resurrection GP, so if you're unlucky, you could die while playing the game. GP is like a lifeline for surviving on Battle.net."

Even if you climb up to the top league, the need for GP actually increases, like the shadow of the Queen of Shadows.

In the ecosystem, even for different species, the common concern is how to earn GP.

"So, I have an idea..."

"What is it?"

"It's called Space Arena!"

Yi Ha-yeon's eyes lit up.

"Didn't you participate in a game before, sir? It's a place where you can bet on all kinds of games on a universal scale!"

"I heard you quit gambling before, but when I looked up information about the arena, your eyes changed..."

"I quit! I had no choice but to do research for your subscribers this time!"

When Yoon Se-ah excitedly nodded her head next to her, she quickly refuted.

"At the end of this month, there will be a match for players in the Master League in the arena. If you, sir, go out there and win as a player from the lowest race, you will start to receive attention from those who are looking for players to bet on."

"Space Arena... It's where those who are blind to betting ultimately gather. If you show your skills there, whether you like it or not, you will start to receive attention. However, due to the structure of the arena, it's difficult to continue winning streaks..."

"Why?"

"If you continue winning streaks, the arena will match you with stronger opponents. But the level jump is too high, so most people end up losing after a maximum of 5 consecutive wins."

Sung JiHan raised his head and looked puzzled.

When he participated in the game map in Space Arena before.

He had easily achieved a winning streak.

So, did he not meet the hidden existence, the 'Remnants of the Deity', and absorb his power?

"Maybe it was just easy because it was a game map."

Thinking that way, Sung JiHan asked the Queen of Shadows.

"Do you also receive experience points in the arena?"

"Is it because of leveling up? There will be plenty of experience point rewards. However, if you lose, the penalty will be significant... If you're not fully prepared, your level could be greatly reduced."

"That's fine."

If his level goes down because of losing in the arena.

How will he face the powerful enemies he will encounter in the future?

Sung JiHan focused more on the rewards for winning than the penalties for losing.

"Let's participate in the arena. But just participating might decrease the level of interest."

"What if we also include a large self-bet? If the player himself places a bet, the level of interest will be even higher. Of course, at first, we might not even know if it exists, but once you start winning streaks in the arena, the frequency of mentioning you will increase along with the large self-bets. 'Have you seen the player who came out this time? He made a huge GP bet on himself.' Like that. And also..."

While spitting out ideas, Yi Ha-yeon explained how to attract attention.

Her tired face came to life, and ideas began to explode.

Even though he quit gambling, he couldn't completely get rid of his interest in betting.

"Uncle, wouldn't it be nice to prepare and upload the video of your victory in the arena? It can show how you dominated the arena missions."

"Hmm. Should I upload that first?"

Accepting Yoon Se-ah's suggestion, they decided to organize and upload the old videos.

[Subscriber 'Lue Investment Representative Octain' sponsors 1,000,000 GP and sends a message.]

[An extraterrestrial existence. Will you accept the sponsorship?]

"...This, the octopus from back then?"

One of the hundred or so subscribers.

Sent a sponsorship right away.
