Chapter 862
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Today is my first live stream in a long time, so I will communicate a bit with the viewers. Please post any questions you have in the chat.”
Kalen turned on his live stream and didn’t proceed with any special content. He communicated with the viewers. He made it a priority. It was natural. This was the strength of the Venom Guild and the viewers’ expectations were the same.
-Show us what it looks like around you.
-Where is this?Right now.
-Show us some NPCs.The monsters.
-The bone dragons are cool. Show us the bone dragons.
The viewers had many requests for the Venom Guild. Recently, there had been more A-World video uploads than the live streams, so the communication wasn’t good. Therefore, they tried to resolve their curiosity when an opportunity like this came along.
“My surroundings? I don’t think there is much to see...?”
Kalen shrugged and changed the screen of the live stream. It wasn’t toward him and the other Venom Guild members, but to show the surrounding scenery.
-Eh?Isn’t this that city?
-That’s right, it is a city.
-Why is the Venom Guild here?
-Why else would they be here?The undead army has taken over the city.
The viewers saw the surrounding scenery that Kalen saw and grasped the current location of the Venom Guild. It wasn’t difficult to find out. It was because it looked familiar.
“That’s right. We are currently leading the undead and staying in the northern cities.”
Kalen appeared again in the viewers’ eyes.
-Yet what is this confidence?Aren’t NPCs and large guilds now gathering to take back the cities?
-His confidence has been good since committing himself to the undead army.
-You can do this if you haven’t experienced a lot of fear.
-Isn’t it over when they die?
The viewers clicked their tongues at the Venom Guild’s reckless actions. In the minds of the viewers, the Venom Guild was like a flame in front of the wind. It was a flame that would soon disappear.
“Hey, why are you saying that? Everyone, if you say too many negative things... won’t we become too weak?”
Kalen smiled softly and answered the viewers’ questions. “It isn’t as bad as you think, everyone. Don’t we have our own secret weapon?”
-A secret weapon?
-Is it the bone dragons?
-Relying on just the bone dragons?
-Don’t you think they will be broken by Alley Leader and the NPCs?
-It will be even worse with New World present.The compatibility isn’t good.
The viewers shook their heads at Kalen’s words. There was no trust at all. To be honest, the reality was that they felt the undead army would be pushed back. The power was too overwhelming. The number of NPCs that made up the army wasn’t small and the number of players gathered was many times greater than that. There were many NPCs, players, and people using divine power. It was much higher than the average rate.
“Thank you for caring about us, but I really don’t think we will lose that easily. We really have a hidden power.”
Kalen had a really confident expression. He had something he believed in.
-Is this real?
-I really don’t think you can stop them.
-If it wasn’t for Raccoon being obedient last time...
-Alley Leader and Raccoon did it all.
-Even in the East Continent right now, Raccoon is doing everything alone ㅋㅋㅋ
The viewers were taken aback by Kalen’s continued confident remarks. It was natural since the Venom Guild was a guild where famous rankers were gathered. They weren’t just ordinary people, but those who were quite high among the rankers. The viewers were gradually persuaded as the Venom Guild continued to speak with such confidence.
“I honestly don’t think we will lose unless Lebron or the emperor appear on the battlefield. That is the situation right now.”
-Is this the mindset of not losing?
-What?This confidence?
-Did all of the Venom Guild complete their fifth class advancement?
-What?Really?Is there something to believe in?
The viewers were now curious about it.
Why? What did they believe in that they kept saying things like this?
“Everyone is wondering why I am so confident, right?”
-I am naturally curious.
-Did a large guild join the undead army?
-One won’t work, unless that one guild is New World.
-Then what is it?
The viewers couldn’t come up with a proper answer to Kalen’s question. They said whatever came to mind, but as they spoke, they weren’t convinced that what they were saying was correct.
“It is because of that NPC right there.”
Kalen turned and pointed to something. He was pointing to someone wearing a black robe. He appeared to be around three meters tall and the silhouette seen through the robes looked quite solid.
-Who is that NPC?
-That appearance is full of strength.
-He does look strong.
-By the way, it is said they can win unless the emperor or Lebron is here...is he saying that the NPC is of that level?
-Is there such an NPC in the undead army?Then?
The viewers were amazed.
Lebron and the emperor—they were NPCs who weren’t easily seen. Absolutely not. Yet there was an NPC with such a level in the undead army? It meant the undead army wasn’t as bad as it seemed.
“Of course, that doesn’t mean the NPC is as strong as Lebron or the emperor. They aren’t on the same level, but this NPC is just a step down.”
Kalen had heard from Hyeonu about how powerful the guardians were. One on one was a defeat, two against one was weak. Three against one was an equal match or dominant.
-This or that.It is the same thing anyway.Players can’t mix in anyway.
-No raid.Even tanking isn’t possible.
-Honestly, how to fight them if you are beaten to death in two or three blows?How to defeat a monster that kills in one blow?
-Then he deserves to be confident.I admit it.The war is worth fighting.
The viewers heard where Kalen’s confidence came from and immediately acknowledged it. It was worth having self-confidence.
-Lebron will be in the East Continent and the emperor will be in the imperial palace...won’t the war last a long time?
-The price of potions will go up tremendously again.
-I thought I could barely get it...
-Still, I’m glad that the equipment prices will drop a lot.It happens every time there is a war.
-Is it because the level rises quickly?It seems like the equipment is released in bulk.
Light and darkness coexisted in a war. The level up was fast and material items and finished items often dropped. This increased the volume released on the market and reduced the price of high level equipment. However, the demand for potions increased, so the price of potions rose by a ridiculous degree.
It wasn’t even a situation where large guilds could make money from selling expensive potions. Most of them didn’t have enough potions for their own needs. The problem was the lack of potions and there were few people generous with them.
“Additionally, there are four more NPCs like this.”
-Four more?
-Isn’t that completely crazy?
-Isn’t the undead army better than the god tribe?It is really worth going there.
-This war is worth seeing.
The viewers were once again surprised to hear there were a total of five guardians. They thought positively of the future of the undead army.
Five NPCs who possessed a certain level of strength. They thought this was enough to risk their future.
***
Four days had passed since the Venom Guild resumed streaming.
The imperial army and adventurers, led by Hyeonu, arrived near the city they set as their destination. To be precise, it was a field near the city. It was a terrain where there was no inconvenience even if a large number of people were gathered. They also couldn’t be raided in the surrounding area.
“We will gather by guilds and build formations. We’ll be staying for quite a while, so I recommend that you set up your camp as comfortably as possible,”Hyeonu said to the guild leaders and key executives of the guilds who were sitting around him.
Then he left first.
-To Kalen:Is the live stream turned on?
Hyeonu sent a whisper to Kalen as he moved. Now it was just before the war would break out. It was a situation where they had to actively exchange their opinions.
-From Kalen:It will be on in a few minutes.Are you here now?
Kalen already knew that Hyeonu had arrived near the city without Hyeonu saying anything. It was impossible not to know. It was because there were more than one or two people who moved with their live streams turned on.
-To Kalen:Yes, I think the battle will probably start in an hour or two.Get ready.
-From Kalen:So fast?You’ve been traveling for over 10 hours...
-To Kalen:So why not start faster?We’ve already moved for 10 hours, so we have to move harder.
Hyeonu handed over important information while chatting with Kalen. Of course, it was information that Kalen would find out for himself a few dozen minutes later. However, these few dozen minutes made a big difference. He could prepare more thoroughly during that time. It wasn’t an ordinary advantage.
-To Kalen:The battle will be fought over three days as predetermined.
-From Kalen:I remember.Fight for three days, rest for a day, and then fight again.
-To Kalen:That’s right, please take care of it.Please use the guardians appropriately.
-From Kalen:I understand.Please take care of it as well.
The conversation between Hyeonu and Kalen ended here. It was because Hyeonu started streaming.
“Hello, everyone. I am Alley Leader.”
Hyeonu started the live stream and immediately revealed his screen without any waiting time.
-Hi hi.
-Hi Alley Leader.
-Does the war begin now???
-What time will it start?Can I eat before I come?
The viewers poured in as soon as Hyeonu’s live stream began. It was as if people had been waiting for Hyeonu’s live stream to turn on.
“Welcome, everyone. The war is about to begin. It is just around the corner. It is about to start. However, enjoy your meal in a leisurely manner. I’ll delay it until you come back after eating.”
Hyeonu focused on the fast rising chat window.
-Aren’t you worried that there is a very strong NPC on the other side?
Then he selected some of the ones he could answer.
“I’m not worried. I don’t think it will be that hard. The war will be over quickly. It won’t last long. It isn’t something that can be won just because of one strong NPC. This is a war.”
Hyeonu responded to viewers with an expression that was several times more confident than Kalen. He was incomparably confident.
-Look at this self-confidence.
-Perhaps the emperor is coming to the battlefield?
-Or some other powerful NPC?
-Liu Shei borrowed NPCs from the temple...is he believing in that?
The viewers started discussing with each other to find out where Hyeonu’s confidence came from. Yet once again, they had no answer. Hyeonu had too many secrets.
“I believe in myself. It isn’t about trusting others. The items and skills I’ve gained by rolling like a dog so far. I believe in that.”
Hyeonu proudly bluffed. The degree was so severe that it seemed unlucky.
-That... it is like that.There is a lot that has been built up.
-If you are strong, then you can say things like that.
-If I did that, they would ask me why I was bluffing.
-It is true that it is a bluff.
-He can’t beat that NPC.
The viewers were dumbfounded. However, it wasn’t terribly wrong, so there was nothing to refute.
‘Additionally... the relationships I’ve built up are a strength.’
The final words he didn’t say. Hyeonu believed in them the most right now.
