Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 341

Currently, the highest level hunting ground within ‘Revival Legend' was the level 1500 hunting ground. However, a level 2700 hunting ground was offered to me.

It was a whopping 1200 level difference. It was certainly something for me to celebrate because level 2700 showed how strong I was, but I didn't like it very much, for this was a really high-level hunting ground to make it fair for others. In other words, a normal level 1200 user would have been provided with a level 1200 hunting ground, but I was given a level 2700 hunting ground befitting my level.​

The message clearly said that the hunting grounds were provided according to each person's evaluated level, but the number of coins dropped was the same across all hunting grounds. In this situation, it was possible for a level 200 player to win first place in this event.

“Well, I have no intention of yielding first place to somebody else,” I muttered silently, then turned.

Dinner time at the Myongjin Shelter.

“What level is your hunting ground?”

“Well.”

I did not immediately answer my sister's question.

Then she narrowed her eyes and asked again, “Alright, I guess your hunting ground must be over level 2000, right? Ummm, level 2300 or level 2400?”

“Hahahaha!”

This time, I burst out laughing instead of answering.

She opened her mouth with a slightly startled expression at my response.

“What? Do you mean a higher level than that?”

Of course, the level 1500 hunting ground, which was the most powerful hunting ground available, startled her already, so this time she mentioned a level 2400 hunting ground which was a whopping 900 levels higher.

But even the level 2400 hunting ground was still 300 levels lower than the level 2700 hunting ground assigned to me.

So I shook my head, and shook it again, when she mentioned level 2500 and level 2600.

“Gosh, then level 2700?”

“Yep.”

I finally replied when she mentioned level 2700, and at that moment, not only my sister, but also my father and mother looked at me in big surprise.

Then my sister opened her mouth with a small smile, as if she wasn't surprised at all.

“Then it might be difficult for you to win first place this time? Are you finally going to experience failure?”

As she said, it was possible I could not win first place this time.

Obviously, everybody was given a hunting ground befitting their level, so this was a fair game on the surface, and the dropped coins would be the same across all hunting grounds, regardless of the level.

However, my reaction was different.

“Well. I feel like I'm going to win first place again.”

I really felt I could, and I intended to win.

Moreover, I was greatly anticipating the level 2700 hunting ground instead of feeling nervous or pressured.

The event ‘Collect More Coins Than Others' was supposed to start the next day.

That's why I was busy hunting since early morning today, and I finally got a message.

[You have leveled up.]

“…”

It was a message that said I reached exactly level 1300.

However, unfortunately, there was no other message that said I could earn an additional privilege like the reality actualization privilege I earned at level 1200 or that I could acquire new skills.

Nonetheless, I had mixed feelings because level 1299 and level 1300 were clearly different from each other.

“Alright, let me move on to level 1400!”

First of all, there was still one more day left until the start of the event, and I was not satisfied with level 1300, so I went back to hunting monsters.

The Chinese leadership led by President Xi were observing the situation closely in Beijing while Juyoung Hong was busy hunting in the Land of Titan.

“Oh my…he's become much stronger. He is not just stronger, but extraordinarily more powerful than before. How can he be so strong like that? This is obviously reality, right?”

As a matter of fact, President Xi monitored the situation in Osaka, Japan, as soon as enemies appeared there by mobilizing all his available resources.

So they could secure quite a lot of memory beads, which included the images of Juyoung Hong getting rid of the enemies.

President Xi watched the video again and again.

Of course, President Xi recognized Juyoung, so he provided Juyoung with the clues about the enemies, and tried not to cause any friction with the Myongjin Guild as well as Juyoung as much as possible.

However, Juyoung in the video was much stronger than what President Xi and other Chinese government officials had anticipated.

So President Xi started questioning before he knew it.

“Obviously, each of the enemies was far more capable than Smith. Then how could Juyoung handle them so easily as if he was fighting a child?”

Of course, it was true that Juyoung had a hard time fighting against Smith's party until the middle of the fight. But he could beat them completely at the end by using some extraordinary weapon.

“Man, were those roots really that thick from the beginning? And what is that white root?”

“…”

“…”

“…”

But none of the top Chinese government officials could respond to President Xi's questions because they didn't know the answer either.

They continued the meeting for a long time, but nobody could find the answer.

At last President Xi spoke softly, “Great. Even though Juyoung is far stronger than we expected, do we still have any chance of winning this time?”

They understood his point, so one of them said gently, “Yes, I think we have a good chance of winning this time. Given his capabilities, there is a high possibility that he will be given a level 2000 or higher hunting ground. And it is impossible for him to restrict himself significantly.”

“That's right. Even if he can restrict himself, he won't be able to do it more than 10%.”

“Good. But keep in mind that our competitor is not Juyoung Hong alone. Since we knew about this quest in advance, we must win the event by all means.”

“Understood!”

“Yes, sir!”

They wrapped up the meeting after a heated discussion about Juyoung Hong's extraordinary power. Of course, there was a reason why President Xi and the other top Chinese government officials had no choice but to be astonished by Juyoung Hong who they had confirmed was much stronger than they expected. Actually, they thought the baseline of Juyoung's strength was the time when he beat Smith a long time ago. But after he beat Smith, Juyoung became immensely strong after unintentionally devouring the parasite, not to mention the tremendous growth of the roots. After that, he succeeded in destroying the statue inside the Holdridge's headquarters, which made it possible for him to equip the items he had within Revival Legend in reality that would have normally cost him millions of coins.

In addition, by using North Korean leader Yujung Kim's conspiracy to his advantage, he obtained more than 14,000 stat points from Jihye Suh. Right before he participated in the event, he also obtained more than 100,000 coins instantly by exchanging the stone squirrels' undigested mineral masses for coins. As a result, he achieved as high as 85% reality actualization rate.

Since all these things happened in a fairly short period of time, President Xi and the other top Chinese government officials had no choice but to feel not only astonished but also in awe of his spectacular growth.
