Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 175 - Expected Results (4)



Chapter 175: Expected Results (4)

Ice Ball, Ice Bolt, Multiple Ice Arrow, or Ice Spear upgraded to level 6 this time were not strong enough as a single target skill. Of course, others might think it was powerful enough, and it was certainly quite powerful.

But while I was fighting against this guy named Edwin this time, I thought it would be nice if I had a stronger single target skill.

Above all, I didn’t need another AOE skill right now.

Why? It’s because I will reach Level 700 soon and will be able to equip the Ice Emperor’s guardian sword. Then, the power of my ice-type skills will increase and their cooldown would decrease.

“Let me obtain Ice Wave!”

So, rather than hunting, I chose to acquire more specialized combat skills. After that, I left for the hunting ground right away because I was really ready for the hunt.

I soon arrived at Kotum Castle’s teleport zone.

“Move to the Sabre Steel Tooth Tiger Habitat.”

[You have moved to the Sabre Steel Tooth Tiger Habitat.]

Soon after arriving at the Sabre Steel Tooth Tiger Habitat, I saw the usual Myongjin users guarding the entrance. They were back after the event finished.

It seemed that Director Sok took action as soon as the event was over. Otherwise, there was no reason for the users to loiter around in this place.

Tramp-Tramp-Tramp-

They already knew who I was, as usual. So they let me through easily.

I gently greeted them with a nod, passing by them.

When I stepped into the hunting ground, I opened my mouth right away.

“Blink.”

Although I had enormous stats during the event, there was only one thing that I sorely missed. It was none other than Blink with zero cooldown.

Since I normally used it all the time, it was a great inconvenience to lack it during the event.

During the event, I have always agonized over choosing between the status window with extremely high stats and the status window with the zero cooldown Blink which has lower stats.

Which one did I choose? Well, I didn’t bother choosing because there was no guarantee I would be allowed to choose what I wanted.

“Khuuuuuuuuuung!”

“Kheeeeeeeeeeeeeh”

Anyway, using Blink with zero cooldown, I quickly drove the herd of sabre steel tooth tigers charging at me violently into one corner, then attacked them with my trademark skills.

“Ice Field! Multiple Thin Ice!”

Pasasasak!.

“Pouring Hail! Ice Storm!”

After that, I used AOE skills in succession, starting with level 6 Pouring Hail.

Then I used one more skill because I needed to test it anyway in this hunting ground.

“Ice Wave!”

Icy waves formed in front of me instantly, with each wave spanning 3 meters wide.

“Kheeeeeeeng!”

“Keheeeek!”

“…”

Of course, I attacked the tigers on the ice terrain generated with Ice Field and Thin Ice. Although it didn’t last long, they were also fully exposed to the Pouring Hail and Ice Storm before I used the new Ice Wave skill.

Nevertheless, about 15 sabre steel tooth tigers that were in Ice Wave’s range collapsed with wild screams. All of them collapsed without exception.

Watching them fall helplessly, I had no choice but to exclaim, “Man, this skill is really useful!”

I thought it would be nice if it had a bit wider attacking range, but that was being a bit greedy. So I focused on hunting, satisfied with my current skills.

I kept hunting there for a few more days.

Four days later at the Sabre Steel Tooth Tiger Habitat.

Obviously, I thought it would be okay to move to a higher-level hunting ground, but I chose to keep hunting here because this place was good enough.

Besides, I was herding and hunting monsters much faster than before.

Moreover, my goal of reaching level 700 was around the corner.

So, I hunted persistently, and soon I heard the message that I had been looking forward to.

[You have leveled up.]

It was a message that I’ve heard a lot until now.

But I immediately raised my hands at this particular message because it indicated that I had finally reached level 700.

At the same time, I opened my inventory and selected one item, namely, the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

“Check the item.”

[+4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword (Myth grade)

-It is a sword containing the last determination of Asirante, the master and emperor of ice, who fought against the Sun God Morutu who burned and evaporated everything in the world.

-Increases magic attack power by (2950) -> 4150.

-Durability: 25700000/25700000]

To use the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword, I needed to satisfy the requirements of being at least level 700, having 7000 intellect and possessing 10 ice-based skills.

Among them, level 700 has been my only obstacle until now.

But finally, I could overcome that restriction, so I felt very elated and satisfied.

So, I immediately removed the staff from my hand and equipped the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword.

Pasasasak!.

Immediately, a sword of ice appeared in my hand.

“Hahahaha.”

I could not help but chuckle heartily before I knew it.

But as if they were not satisfied with my joy, I noticed some groups of sabre steel tooth tigers charging at me violently, so I swung the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword at them.

Although I have hardly used my level 3 Ice Weapon skill along with Ice Shield, I used it without holding back this time.

Puck! Puck! Puck!

Pasasasak!

Without using any technique, I just kept swinging the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword just like I swung the bloody club during the previous event.

However, its effect was much better than I thought.

Actually, it seemed even more powerful because of the frostbite debuff applied to the tigers right after I attacked them with the guardian sword.

What happened after that?

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

I just swung the +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword several times, which was enough to kill the sabre steel tooth tigers at once.

Its physical attack power was so effective that it was difficult for me to compare it to the magic attack power. Besides, a total of level 6 Ice Weapon was buffing it.

“Kheeeeeee…”

Watching the tigers sprawled out in various places, I felt very satisfied.

However, I had some questions.

Were they about this +4 enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword?

No, not really. As a matter of fact, I was immensely satisfied with it.

Aside from anything else, the mix of the immense physical attack power and the total level 6 Ice Weapon made me even think about switching to being a melee combatant in the future.

But I had some questions about this level 700 only quest.

There were level 100, level 300, and level 500 only quests, and of course, there were also level 700 and level 900 only quests.

But there was no such quest for level 1100.

Since I achieved level 700, the message about the limited quest should have rung.

But it didn’t ring this time, which was very unusual.
