Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 181

If I overwhelmed the Lotz Clan right from the start, I may be besieged from all sides because although the other clans wanted the Lotz Clan to be struck down, they would not be willing to see another dominant force emerge.

So, I intended to deal with the Lotz clan fighters with just the necessary force required.

After I decided how to fight them, I opened my mouth to the nine members of the Zaltz clan behind me.

“Don't heal or buff me.”

Obviously, I will be the primary target for the Lotz clan combatants.

However, if the healers and enchanters got involved, they would be the Lotz fighters' first target, not me, because the basics of group fighting was to target the back line.

Of course, even if the members of my group die, it would not impact me at all.

However, since I did not intend to be a bystander, I gave them such an order.

“Yeah!”

“Okay!”

Since they already agreed to follow my orders unconditionally, no one disputed it.

Anyway, I launched the attack first because I didn't want to waste time on this fight.

Of course, I attacked with Ice Field and Thin Ice first.

“Stop him!”

“Fire Field!”

“The Roaring Land!”

“The Fire Spirit's Fury.”

I noticed about 20 users among the 100 combatants of the Lotz clan, including Yosif.

The rest of them were all NPCs belonging to the Lotz clan. Of course, this did not make the fight more favorable to me.

During the level 500 only quest, I fought a number of NPCs and users, and keenly realized that NPCs were better at fighting than most users.

Of course, it didn't mean that the 20 users were weak fighters.

As if to meet my expectations, they immediately responded to my first strike.

They resorted to the same skills to destroy my ice-type skills.

And then they started using more skills.

“Tie them, Sticky Roots!”

“Bursting Flames!”

“Pain Thorns!”

“Wind Storm!”

“Dancing Flames!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

Regardless of whether they were users or NPCs, all of the opponents were high level.

That's why their attacks were very strong.

Of course, I had something I could rely on to withstand their fierce attack.

[You are wearing the +4 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword.

-Due to the determination of the Ice Emperor that even the Sun God could not melt, the damage incurred by fire-type skills is reduced by 30%.]

Honestly, I didn't have to wear the guardian sword because my willpower was over 10,000 and my armor was also top quality.

Although it was a weapon effective against the fire-type attacks, I was satisfied with it because it also served as a good defense.

Anyway, I moaned at their attacks.

“Argh!”

I even stepped back slightly as if I had been affected by their powerful attack.

“Great! Keep attacking him!”

“This guy Asirante is only human, after all!”

Given their elated reactions, my pretense seemed to have paid off.

Of course, I also attacked them.

“Ice Spear! Multiple Ice Arrow! Ice Wave!”

First of all, I used Ice Spear and Multiple Ice Arrows to check out their strength, then resorted to Ice Wave which was my strongest instant damage skill.

“Kuuuuuuuuuuuh!”

“Kheeeeeeeeeeeeh!!”

The first two players of the Lotz clan at the forefront were immediately killed by Ice Wave. But on the surface, it seemed that I was struggling desperately while the Lotz clan combatants were pushing me into a corner. So, even if two of them fell, the rest didn't care at all. I could see they were going out of their way to attack me more intensely.

‘By the way, they are really strong,' I murmured to myself while fending them off.

Even though I had more than 17,000 stamina and wore top-notch items, I realized my health was depleting rapidly.

However, I was still fine because my health was basically too high.

Anyway, I tried my best to give them the impression that I was struggling to defend myself desperately, so that I could gradually counterattack without them paying attention.

While the Lotz clan combatants and the Zaltz clan fighters were engaged in fighting, Antoine, who participated in this quest as a member of the Hantz clan, felt something strange while monitoring their fight.

“Hum…”

Of course, at first Antoine also thought that Asirante was in a very disadvantageous situation because no matter how strong Asirante was, his opponents were far from weak, and even the NPCs in the Lotz clan were level 1000 or higher. So he didn't think it strange at all that Asirante was struggling to defend himself desperately.

However, it was the Lotz clan fighters who were suffering real damage.

In other words, it was the Lotz clan combatants who were taking the offensive, but ten of them were already killed, with only 90 left.

On the contrary, the Zaltz clan, which had only ten combatants, had not lost a single member.

In other words, the Zalz clan fighters who included Asirante, suffered no damage at all.

Of course, if Asirante, fighting against them alone, fell, then all the combatants of the Zaltz clan would fall soon after and the Zaltz clan would vanish. But Asirante didn't fall at all, even though he seemed to be struggling desperately.

‘No way! He can't be putting on an act!'

Antoine himself was the leader of one of the top five guilds in France, so he was confident that he had a discerning eye, but he never thought that Asirante was now pretending to struggle in a defensive position on purpose.

However, when he recalled the fact that Asirante was responsible for helping Korea, which nobody previously paid attention to, win the 4th Anniversary Special Event, he became convinced that Asirante was now trying to deceive the Lotz clan fighters by deliberately trying to look weak.

So he decided at that moment that he should help the Lotz clan.

If Asirante was now pretending to look weak on purpose, it would be a fait accompli that the Lotz clan would be eliminated by playing into his hands, which would determine the fate of the next strongest clan, namely the Hantz clan.

If the Hantz clan were really included among the three clans to be eliminated, he would never receive the reward for this quest.

Antoine looked around to evaluate the situation.

None of the Lotz clan fighters doubted Asirante's behavior.

Watching them, however, Antoine decided not to help the Lotz clan fighters, for he judged that he didn't need to make Asirante his enemy to receive the quest reward which was not that big.

Now, the Lotz clan has only 70 members left?

I thought there were now only 70 left, which was still far more than the Zaltz clan fighters which only numbered ten including me.

However, given the whispering among the Lotz clan fighters that I could hear, I realized that many of them also felt something strange.

Of course, I fully understood their feelings because I never fell despite my apparent collapse. In the meantime, I got rid of 30 of them, to their shock.

So I quietly opened my mouth.

“Use limited skill Savant!”

[Among the strength, agility, stamina, willpower and intellect that Lumen, Asirante currently possesses, the most outstanding stat is intellect.

-Current intellect: 21850.

-For 30 minutes, your intellect is doubled to 43700.

-After this period of 30 minutes, Savant will go on a 10 day cooldown]

“Ice field! Multiple Thin Ice!”

Puck! Puck!

Pasasasak!

Pitter-patter! Pitter-patter!

After using my limited skill Savant, I laid Ice Field again.

Then I used an AOE skill right away, which I had not used for a long time.

“Blink.”

And I penetrated into the enemy using Blink.

“Khuuuuuuuuuuuk!”

“Kheeeeeeeeehe!”

“What the hell is this damage…”

The battle was literally hell for them.

When I changed my attack method and inflicted heavy damage on them all of a sudden, the battlefield turned into a mess in an instant with the Lotz clan fighters falling into great confusion.

Of course, while I was in the thick of fighting, I didn't lose my sight on Yosif because he was a central fighter of the Lotz clan.

Anyway, my second round of fighting with them began like that.

“Damn, we have been completely taken in!”

“You bet! He fooled us completely.”

“Then, isn't it time for all of us to join hands with the Lotz clan to fight him?”

“Are you crazy? Can't you see him fighting them alone?”

Hearing that, one of the users who was a member of the 3rd largest Altz clan, turned his eyes at Asirante.

“…”

He said nothing. Of course, the quest reward was important to him, but he didn't want to jump into the fire with an oil barrel on his back because he knew what would happen if he confronted Asirante.
