The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 310

"What day is it now? Has the Space League match started?"

"No, it's in two days!"

"Fortunately, the timing worked out."

Inside the Void Training Grounds, it was not easy to grasp the flow of time.

I was worried that the match schedule had been skipped, but it seems that it wasn't the case.

Feeling relieved, Sung JiHan asked the staff,

"What happened to the people trapped in the Connectors?"

"Oh, well..."

"They are still trapped."

"Really?"

"Yes. And the situation is the same for the US national team. So, here's the thing..."

Director No YoungJun, looking troubled, glanced at Sung JiHan and spoke.

"There's talk of returning the Treasure of the Beginning to the king."

"Really? But I've already absorbed it."

"Is that so?"

"Ah..."

People sighed at Sung JiHan's words.

I thought I had to convince him somehow and wake up the players, but everything turned out to be in vain.

"But thanks to absorbing it, I think I have a way to deal with it."

"A, a way to deal with it?"

People looked at Sung JiHan in surprise.

The king of the Beginning who bewitched the world's top rankers in the game.

Sung JiHan has a way to deal with that?

"Well, it's not certain yet, but it's worth a try. Are the players' Connectors still in that room?"

"Y, yes."

"Then let's go see."

Sung JiHan took a light step forward.

Director No YoungJun and the coaching staff looked at each other with disbelief and followed him.

And...

"Now I understand. I can feel traces of life force."

Sung JiHan felt the energy emanating from the Connectors and raised the corners of his mouth.

The trickery of Gilgamesh, who treated the players as his pawns, using the power of the king of the Beginning.

After obtaining the Eternal Stats, it vaguely appeared before his eyes.

Swoosh.

Chains protruded from behind Sung JiHan.

Shoo!

They all flew towards the BattleNet Connectors.

"Ji, JiHan, if they break...!"

Director No YoungJun urgently shouted as the chains flew violently.

Clang. Clang.

The chains wrapped around the Connectors.

Shooooo...!

They extracted the life force embedded within.

With the complex rituals depicted inside, the life force disappeared.

Sung JiHan thought as he watched this.

"Gilgamesh, you haven't completely made everyone yours yet."

Other rankers at the pinnacle of humanity.

It was not an easy task to brainwash them, even for someone like Gilgamesh.

It might have been possible in the game map 'Toosung,' but in the real world, it required a complex process to make someone completely on your side without the support of the Holy See.

"So even though I went in and out of the training room, the players were still trapped in the Connectors."

If I had made them loyal like in Toosung, there would have been no need for the players to be trapped.

Instead, they might have come out and pledged their allegiance to Sung JiHan, or they might have refused to participate in the BattleNet if he didn't release them.

So, inside the Connectors, Sung JiHan dismantled Gilgamesh's ritual, clumsily following the domination code.

And then...

Zap...!

Electricity surged from the BattleNet Connectors.

Chiik...

One by one, the doors began to open.

"Oh, oh...!"

"No way!?"

The staff, who had been worried only when Sung JiHan took out the chains, looked at the place with surprised eyes.

And...

"Uh... ugh..."

Players started coming out one by one.

Although they were dizzy and staggering, their bodies seemed to be in good condition.

"The players have come out!"

"Please check their condition!"

The medical team that had been waiting in advance was deployed.

Sung JiHan began to release the remaining connectors in succession.

"Oh... my head."

"Uh, I remember becoming Gilgamesh's chains... but what happened after that?"

"King? King... I forgot..."

Most of the players were released like that, leaving only two connectors.

"Who's left?"

"Only Yoon Sejin and Ha Yeonju!"

"Among the trapped players, the two with the highest level are taking a long time... Could it be that Ha Yeonju is also the Prime Sponsor Seat of the Beginning?"

"I heard that's not the case..."

Although Korea won the Champions League final.

Among the national team players, there were not many who could be called world-class.

Led by the outstanding player Sung JiHan.

Except for Yoon Sejin and Ha Yeonju, who are currently trapped, and Yoon Saea and Sofia who have already come out.

Most of them were not even selected for the Space League national team.

"The strong players are taking longer to hold on."

When Coach No Youngjun thought that way.

Chiiing...!

As another connector opened, Ha Yeonju came out with a tired face.

"King, king... I'm really bored. What kind of king is this in this day and age?"

"Ha Yeonju, are you okay?!"

"Yes, ah... Did Mr. JiHan release it after all? Thanks to that, I survived."

She glanced at Sung JiHan, who was focusing on Yoon Sejin's connector with the remaining chains.

After bowing her head in that direction, she came out with the support of the medical team.

Only one player remained like that.

When Sung JiHan's divine power gathered completely in Yoon Sejin's connector.

Flash...!

There, a golden light sparkled.

* * *

"Uh, ugh... Golden..."

"Don't, don't look at me!"

"Avert your gaze!"

Now, the players who cause a game just by seeing the golden light.

Both the coaching staff and the medical team also sat down and avoided eye contact.

And.

Within that, Gilgamesh's voice flowed out.

[Even after writing the annihilation code, my avatar... You really won, as expected.]

"It's nothing. Your avatar."

[I only consumed one precious root.]

While saying that, the golden light shone more intensely.

[You, who receive my sponsorship. Unlike others, it won't be easy to remove your loyalty.]

Indeed, as Gilgamesh said.

Unlike other players, Yoon Sejin, who cannot be resolved by extracting the life force.

"My brother's Prime Sponsor Seat is Gilgamesh, so that's why. He's picky."

But there is still a way.

Sung JiHan extended the divine power to the eternity inside.

[The seal of the stat 'Eternity' is temporarily released.]

As the seal was released.

Based on the energy of life that flowed in like rushing water, Sung JiHan wrote the domination code on the connector.

When he used it on Gilgamesh's avatar before, he didn't have enough power to complete even the structure.

"But this time, it seems to be working until 'ji'."

Since he was already doing it, he thought about writing the rest of the characters as well.

However, no matter how much energy of life he used, it was impossible to write the characters corresponding to 'bae'.

Still, writing up to 'ji' seemed to have a significant effect.

The alcohol formula within the connector that bound Yoon Sejin began to disappear.

And...

"No, you wrote this code too...!"

Even the intense golden light was gradually being absorbed into the pattern.

"For now, I should step back."

Just like when he used it on the avatar, Gilgamesh showed a weak side towards the domination code.

The golden light, as if fleeing, quickly disappeared.

And...

"Chiiiiing...!"

Yoon Sejin's connector opened for the last time.

There, Yoon Sejin, with a pale face, revealed herself.

"Ah, Dad!"

Upon receiving the message that Sung JiHan had returned, Yoon SeA hurriedly came from Sword Palace and saw that sight.

However...

Before she could support Yoon Sejin...

"Master...!"

He staggered and kneeled before Sung JiHan.

"...Dad?"

"From now on, I will serve the Master...!"

Sung JiHan frowned as he watched Yoon Sejin, who was about to bow.

"Is it because of the domination code?"

The domination code that was only written with one character.

Its effect was outstanding.

"Who is this uncle?!"

Yoon SeA rushed forward and grabbed him, but...

"The 'Witch of Emptiness' says to leave him as he is."

"The 'Witch of Emptiness' says that Sung JiHan taking care of him would be better, as he is always being brainwashed."

"The 'Witch of Emptiness' emphasizes that Sung JiHan must deliver her message."

In front of her eyes, the message from the cold-hearted seat of the Witch of Emptiness appeared.

After Shizuru, even Gilgamesh.

To be subjected to it not once, but twice.

If it was frustrating, should she just leave him as he is?

"Well, we can't just leave it like that! Uncle, can't you release him? Can't you?"

"...Yes, I will release him."

Sung JiHan, who had maintained a moment of silence, raised his finger again.

Like Sung JiA, he had briefly entertained similar thoughts, but...

"But that doesn't mean I'll treat him like a toy."

Sung JiHan had no intention of playing king like Gilgamesh.

So, he released the domination code.

As Yoon Sejin tried to submit in some way, she suddenly stopped.

Thud.

He sat down and let out a deep sigh.

"Ugh... I have no face. Brother-in-law, I'm always indebted to you."

"How are you feeling?"

"My body is fine... And... Gilgamesh disappeared from the supporting seat... He ran away. Is that code that my brother-in-law used his weakness?"

"I canceled the supporting seat."

"Yeah... There won't be such a thing again."

To the point of abandoning the supporting seat, it seems that Gilgamesh is weak against the domination code.

Sung JiHan nodded and looked towards Director No YoungJun.

"Director, please contact the United States. We need to free their players too."

"Ah, understood!"

The match with the World Tree Union was only two days away.

For humanity, the strength of the US national team players was absolutely necessary.

And.

"I heard that there are already planes waiting at the US military base."

"Is that so? They are well-prepared."

Upon hearing the news that Sung JiHan had liberated the national team players, the US had already finished their preparations for departure.

"They just need to come, so they're asking them to come as soon as possible. They said they'll give anything in return... The US limousine is already here too."

"If we take the limousine, won't we be late? Let's just run."

"Run..."

"Yes."

In response to Sung JiHan's words, the coach, with a blank expression, muttered to himself.

"Ah, when we captured Shizuru before, Japan was also running around..."

Sung JiHan had become much stronger since then.

It seemed that using an airship would be much faster than riding in a car.

"Alright. We'll go to the Pyeongtaek US military base..."

"Understood. I'll go ahead."

Whoosh!

As soon as he said that, Sung JiHan disappeared.

Everyone in the stands looked dumbfounded, staring at the spot where he had disappeared.

* * *

Two days later, at the BattleNet Center in New York.

"They, they've all been liberated...!"

"Thank goodness. Thank goodness! We can participate in the Space League!"

When Sung JiHan liberated the US players from the BattleNet Connector, the US staff went wild with excitement.

"My lord!"

Meanwhile.

Sung JiHan came out of the connector and frowned at Balan, who was kneeling in front of him.

How many times have I heard that voice of Lord?

Unlike the Korean national team, the US had many players who had chosen Gilgamesh as their supporting deity.

Therefore, it required writing many domination codes to release them.

"That Gilgamesh... He definitely put a lot of effort into the US national team."

Compared to the Korean national team, the US national team had significantly higher average skill levels.

Perhaps because they had more talent.

Gilgamesh's influence extended much further here as well.

Sung JiHan wrote and erased domination codes for each of them one by one.

"Th-thank you... Sung JiHan, please forget what I said earlier."

"Thanks to you, I almost became dominated. I'm alive."

He released the loyalty from the US players.

"Now, there are only three hours left until the Space League match!"

"After the medical team checks their condition, they should go straight into the game..."

"Is that possible?"

As soon as they came out of the connector, they had to go back in again.

Some of the US national team players hesitated, perhaps because they had developed trauma, but...

"I'll go."

"This is our job. Of course."

Most of them willingly agreed to go back into the connector.

The coaching staff of the US busily started their preparations.

And there, the director of the Earth national team, Davis, approached Sung JiHan.

"Player Sung JiHan. It seems too late for you to return to Korea and participate... Can you do it here?"

"At the US center?"

"Yes, we will provide the best convenience from our side."

"Understood. We don't have time, so let's do that."

The battle against the World Tree Elves, with only three hours left.

It would have been impossible to go to Korea and play the game.

Sung JiHan decided to play the game at the New York BattleNet Center, where he had spent a long time in his previous life.

And so, in the Space League match where he participated in the US.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our goal is only one."

The representative of the World Tree Elves had a stern expression.

"To be the number one. Today, we will execute it without fail."
