episode_0295

The eight-legged monster that was rising from the bottom of the glacier cliff was in despair as it looked at the approaching ship.

-thud..!!

[Number 102. Obtain 150 essence points.]

[This creature was first discovered by an unlucky team. First Collection. The initial acquisition amount is doubled.]

[Returning team: 770 points]

[Noisy Team: 460 points]

“Wow.”

We turned things around by scoring 300 points in one go.

As expected from Aphrodite, grade A collections brought a lot of points.

“They give a lot of points… By the way…”

I looked under the boat.

“What is this ship..! How did they summon such a large energy vehicle…! what! It’s different from the information I saw!”

The cries of the enemy team that had lost their prey were heard from underneath the ship.

I agreed with what he said and nodded.

‘That’s right, why did a ship come out of the spirit sphere?’

My curiosity arose when I saw the huge sailboat below me.

The first thing I thought of after using the Spirit Dragon Fist was that the enemy team was riding a bike. As it passed in front of me, all I could think was that I wanted to ride something similar.

‘Could it be… that thought became reality?’

It was an incident I didn’t expect.

‘Is it because Cheongryong traveled with me to read a lot of newspaper articles from around the world? Since when did I become able to use things like this?’

Cheongryong was just an ordinary spirit who liked stories.

I didn’t expect much and took her with me with the intention of using her as a house cleaner.

But I can’t believe I have this kind of power.

“Is it because we spent a lot of time together..”

It seemed that Cheongryong was now too strong to be used as a cleaner.

Even Hyeonmu, a member of the spirit race, could be seen to be surprised.

“Ooooh.. So now I’m going to become a spirit that makes stories come true. Blue Dragon.”

The magnitude of that feeling is such that it feels like Hyeonmu is truly envious.

I can’t believe that that small, young water spirit has grown so much.

Now, I thought I could just throw away the janitor… no, just use it as a janitor in a different sense.

For the purpose of cleaning up enemies.

“Good. I am collecting other collectibles like this.”

As Cheongnyong became stronger, I also went from being a twig to a captain of a ship.

It happens to be a world made of snow and ice. There were limitations to moving on foot.

I thought that if I had a vehicle like this, I would be able to find collectibles more quickly.

“Aphrodite, where is your next collection?”

“Just move along the glacier cliff on the right.”

“Okay.”

The boat moved according to the direction I thought in my head.

Perhaps because one of my abilities was piloting, moving the huge ship wasn’t much of a problem.

We crossed the snowy area and moved to the coordinates given by Aphrodite.

“The end of the glacier cliff. A huge movement is captured in the sea. And the enemy team follows.”

“Ugh..! I will follow you to the end and get back what was stolen!”

As Aphrodite said, a bodysuit man on a bike was following my sailboat, muttering something to himself.

He was tracking me, but the distance was gradually increasing.

It’s truly a car.

As the distance grew further away, I felt like I wouldn’t have to worry so much about him.

“Hmm.. Under the sea.. I wonder if I can dive..”

In my head, I saw Cheongryong’s face nodding.

“Okay, it’s diving mode.”

My first horse, Suryongseon, went straight into the sea.

-Bubble bubble…

As I entered the sea, a dark polar sea world unfolded where light was consumed.

“There it is.”

“Wow..”

A huge monster with an emerald shell.

It is similar to a giant crab.

Of course, the difference was that it had wing-like fins on its back, allowing it to swim freely in the sea.

“For a crab, it’s very beautiful.”

“The inhabitants of this planet call it the Onyxwing Crab. It is so rare that it was even called the king of the glacier world in the past.”

“If you catch it, I’ll give you a lot of points. great! Go hunting by yourself..”

It was then.

-Shuung..boom!

An explosion occurred in the crab in front of me.

“Shhh..! This time I will take it! Number 33!”

“That guy.. didn’t give up.”

“Platinum level is certain as far as grit is concerned. Looking at the fact that he made it to the 3rd round, he seems to have potential.”

The guy appeared in a small submersible.

I smiled at the guy who followed me like a stalker.

‘I will never lose a hard-hitting fight.’

The body suit man and I headed towards the crab monster where the torpedo exploded.

I crashed straight into the Water Dragon Ship just like before.

-thud!!

I leisurely looked straight ahead amid the huge shaking.

“Oh.”

“It is a shell shell with considerable defense.”

I headbutted it with my water dragon ship at the same time as the torpedo shot fired by the full body suit, but the crab monster was fine.

-Krrr..

“Ahaha..”

-Whoop!!

Rather, the crab monster, which had grown horns due to my headbutt, immediately swung its pincers.

It was an incredible speed in the water.

“Ugh!!”

There was no escape because of the strong water pressure.

-pop!!

In the end, the dog swayed and the front part broke.

“No! My water dragon ship..!”

I escaped from the water dragon ship while watching it being destroyed in half by one single blow.

“It’s so hard that I need to enchant it to ignore defense…”

“It’s my car!”

A full body suit man intersecting with the sunken me.

He quickly approaches the crab monster.

The small submersible was released and began to strangely attach itself to his sniper rifle.

“Steyr gun mode for warships. Output 55%..79%…88%..”

-Jiiii..!!

Sea water swirls around the gun barrel.

A tingling black electric shock occurred.

Due to the charging energy, the current became stronger and even a water whirlpool formed around it.

-Snap…

“100% confirmed. Come on! Shot!”

-Jiyuuung!!

A yellow line of light continued through the dark sea world.

A monster grab that penetrated the torso.

The two tongs trembled and blood foam spewed out from the mouth.

“Crazy…”

“That weapon has Aegis space battleship level power. No matter how strong the biological carapace is, it will not be able to withstand the weapon firepower developed through space science.”

[Number 9. Obtain 300 essence points.]

[This creature was first discovered by the Noisy team. First Collection. The initial acquisition amount is doubled.]

[Returning team: 820 points]

[Noisy Team: 1190 points]

Seeing a giant crab with its stomach pierced by a single beam of light, I had no choice but to grit my teeth.

***

-Shoot…

I escaped from the cold, frigid sea.

“I will chase you until the end!”

The guy in the bodysuit also followed me to the ground.

“Why do you keep following me?”

“That’s for our team to win. From what I can see, you are number 33. I feel like I know where all the strong collectibles are. If so, I will follow you until the end and interfere with you.”

He tried to follow me around as if he wasn’t full after eating the 300-point monster crab earlier.

“If you keep following me, I will just stay here.”

“Heh.. It’s actually better. As an ace, I believe that if I just stop you, my noisy teammates will keep the score on their own. Stay here with us until the game ends.”

“Eh..Ace? No way.. you are number 8?”

“Now do you know that I am Ace? There are no eyes to see.”

“…”

I didn’t know until now, but this guy is number 8. He was the ace user of the noisy team.

“Number 8… You seem confident… I’m not the ace of our team.”

“No, you are right. Before the game started, the administrator said that user number 33 was the ace.”

“What?”

When did I become Ace..?

“….No way.”

It seemed like Angel Convo was stripped of his ace position because he didn’t do much.

‘Damn… I never thought the Ace number would change during a ranked match.’

I couldn’t help but frown.

The body suit man saw that and laughed.

“Hehe… I guess Team Annoyance’s strategy starts with marking you at number 33.”

“It’s the same here.”

“Of course.. But I trust my team. I gave all the new equipment to my teammates, so you will lose.”

The body suit man was confident and reloaded his sniper rifle.

So that even if I attack, I can pull the trigger at any time.

[30 minutes remaining. The noisy team is ahead.]

This cannot be done. No matter what happens, you have to get away from him and score points.

Then… without him knowing…

It’s stealth!

I immediately made it transparent and hid myself.

“It’s no use. Even if I can’t see you, I’ve saved all your scent and presence. It’s going left.”

“Such a crazy stalker..!”

They’re chasing me again.

No matter where I moved, he followed me like Aphrodite.

“Go away! I don’t like men!”

“Huh? I’m not a man. It’s a woman.”

“Wait.. what?”

I ran away and stopped when I saw the bodysuit man.

And then I turned and looked at the guy who was like my shadow.

“A woman..? It’s funny. Just looking at it, you don’t have breasts!”

“He’s a pervert that lives up to his title. How rude is this to a woman you meet for the first time?”

Bodysuit put his hand next to his black helmet.

Then the helmet disappeared and a face was revealed.

“Wow..!”

It’s a woman. With short purple hair and purple eyes, she looked like a female agent of some organization.

“You have to do this to believe it. It’s duller than I thought.”

“How do you know when your whole body is covered..”

Up until now, I thought it was a body suit man, but now I see that it was a body suit girl.

If the stalker is a woman… it might feel better than you think…

I thought about it.

“Keuhum..Keuhm.. I was rude earlier.”

“The tone of your voice changes a lot. You really like women. I don’t know if I like men that much. But… If you live like that, won’t women hate you?”

What I’m curious about is… it seems like there are more of those number 8 girls than there are of me. I received several questions at once.

“Well..well.. he probably understands that and likes me.”

“You’re confident. It’s selfish and a bit emotional. I don’t like something. Yes, you. Don’t you say you truly like a woman and then throw her away when you don’t see her in front of you?”

“…Hey. The person swearing is right in front of me.”

“Oh, I see. sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt my pride. Because I was talking. We went that far.”

“…You’re so talkative, but then men get tired and run away.”

“So there were no men? Hmm.. I thought I loved it in some way.”

I don’t know anything else, but I know one thing for sure.

This bodysuit girl number 8 has mental problems.

Of course, those problems and shortcomings seemed to be covered up by his outstanding persistence and skills.

If you look at her strengths like that… she seems like a pretty attractive woman…

A beauty who lacks something by 2%…

I might be a little drawn to it because I want to make up for that lack.

“If this continues, the noisy team will win. Received 40 points and advanced to the next round. Finally, I have a chance to upgrade to Diamond. And that’s after overcoming a team that had the misfortune of winning back-to-back games. I’m so cool… And… that’s how I… became famous… and grew…”

It’s noisy… really…

First of all, I tried to have a conversation, spilling half of the 8 words I spoke.

“Hey, number 8.”

“Huh? why? Are you trying to run away again? Isn’t it impossible?”

“Because I won’t run away. Together.. no.. why don’t we compete fairly like before?”

“What~ are you challenging me? You lost the Onyx Wing to my sniper gun earlier. Do you want to experience the same thing again? Of course, you can show it again if you want.”

“It’s still 1:1. Instead, I’ll find the collection for you. To be fair, you can help with one thing.”

“You can get everything if you just follow along. Well, let’s listen to it first… um… what is it? Which one? It’s not like you want my body or anything, right?”

“No.”

“Then?”

“Please lend me some weapons!”

“Weapon..?”

Girl number 8 was puzzled by my words and looked at her sniper rifle.
