Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 297 - Delay (1)



Chapter 297 – Delay (1)

[You have the title ‘Quest Master’.

-Upon clearing a quest, you will acquire an additional 100-300 remaining stat points depending on the quest’s difficulty.]

Of course, I was waiting for this message.

Then another message rang.

[The quest you have cleared is a regular quest.

– Your title ‘Quest Master’ does not apply to this quest]

“Ugh.”

I had no choice but to sigh regretfully because I did not expect that my Quest Master title would not apply to regular quests. I felt even more regretful when I recalled that it worked even during the limited quests. Of course, I could somewhat understand it because I could challenge the general quests and the limited quests only once. However, a regular quest could be challenged at regular intervals, as the word ‘regular’ suggested.

Actually, I challenged the level 400 regular quest twice.

In other words, if the title Quest Master applied to regular quests, it would definitely be a scam. That’s why I didn’t regret it long.

Moreover, the message did not end there

[You performed overwhelmingly in the level 1200regular quest.

-Lumen, Asirante’s total activity: 85%.

– As a reward, you will receive the following items.

: 1 billion golden rings.

: Additional 400 remaining stat points.

: Additional 5000 coins.

: An additional 1 skill point.]

I received additional rewards during my two challenges of the level 400 quest for performing exceptionally. So, I aimed for additional rewards this time as well.

Not only did all of my God of Enhancement restrictions disappear during the quest, but only I could use the items I enhanced to +15 enhancement, so things worked out in my favor.

So although I was not surprised that I received an additional reward, I could not help but be surprised that the reward I received was far better than I expected.

Even excluding the 5,000 coins, which could not be discounted, I even received a skill point.

‘Then, have I obtained a total of three skill points from one quest?’

Yes, I received as many as three skill points.

At that moment, I heard my father talking to our team members.

“Thanks, everybody. Everyone, and especially Juyoung, did a great job.”

“You’re welcome. I could fight well because everybody here fought together. Thanks to all of your considerations, I could explore the plains on my own for over three days.”

“Well, we can’t deny the fact that we won first place because of you.”

“That’s right, young master!”

“Wow! Myongjin! Myongjin!”

When my father praised me and the others, they cheered and waved their hands. The atmosphere became even more bright when my mother, sister and Director Sok heaped praise on me.

Moreover, there was another reason why the atmosphere could not be better.

We could win first place again on our next challenge as well.

To be honest, I felt many times that my God of Enhancement trait was inferior to Mutual Growth and IceMan because of its long cooldown, especially considering I received it due to being the only Closed Beta max level achiever

However, all such restrictions disappeared here, so God of Enhancement could fully display its strength.

What’s more important was that I could enjoy the tremendous effects of items in the next level 1200 regular quest, for I was not restricted from selecting God of Enhancement again during my next challenge

In other words, I was guaranteed 1st place as long as I could keep using God of Enhancement.

Since my team members also knew it, they were all broadly smiling as well.

At that moment, a message rang.

[After 10 seconds, you will be moved from the Last Shelter of the Jaya Plains to your original location.]

“Let me host a small party to celebrate our victory today.”

“Great!”

“Okay!”

My father hosted a small party for us.

In fact, the other teams of the Myongjin Group other than our No. 1 Team were not even listed in the top 50, let alone the top 10. The highest they got was 61st place.

So, my father felt rather embarrassed to hold a large party just to celebrate the victory of the Team No.1 members only.

Anyway, we headed back to the main base of the Myongjin Guild. I immediately logged out and attended the party.

The next day.

“Check status window.”

[Level: 1167

Number of kills: 11492, Number of deaths: 0

Titles: Only Closed Beta Max Level Achiever and 10 others.

Health: 4,687,000 / 4,687,000

Mana: 3,282,000 / 3,282,000

Strength: 7828 Agility: 8125 Stamina: 33972

Willpower: 23236 Intellect: 45955

Remaining stat points: 1800

Remaining skill points: 3

Traits: Iceman, Mutual Growth, God of Enhancement.]

As a matter of fact, I didn’t level up even once during the level 1200 regular quest that lasted for one week. To be honest, I thought that I would rather go hunting than participate in the quest before it started. I only had to level up 33 times to reach level 1200, so I felt even more tempted to stay away from the quest.

However, as soon as I checked the status window, I thought that it was good that I challenged the quest because I obtained a lot even though I did not level up once.

I was especially satisfied with the amount of coins and golden rings that were not shown in the status window.

“Great! I’ve obtained more than enough!”

Anyway, I invested all of the whopping 1800 remaining stat points, including the 1400 from the double rewards, in Intellect.

As soon as I did so, my Stamina increased by 1800 and my Willpower increased by 900.

“Wonderful!”

I exclaimed before I knew it.

But I had one thing to do before I moved to my familiar hunting ground.

I had a whopping 3 skill points in my status window, and I already had an idea how to use them.

“Move to Kotum Castle.”

[You are now moving to Kotum Castle.]

Obviously, there was no more recruitment of new users.

However, this was just a recent change, and there was a huge influx of new users until that point because of the rampant rumors about Revival Legend. As a result, when I got there, there were still quite a lot of users in Kotum Castle, widely known as the area for beginners.

I passed by them and moved to the huge tower in the central square.

Of course, I had to brush past quite a few users several times because it was so crowded, but I didn’t care.

[Currently, there are skills that you can acquire.]

[There are currently ice-type skills that you can upgrade.]

I agonized over the upgradable skills a bit because I had lots of skills I wanted to upgrade.

However, considering the reality actualization rate, it would be foolish for me to upgrade them blindly, for higher level skills require a higher reality actualization rate.

“Search Ice Punishment!”

[Level 8 ‘Ice Punishment’. (Active, requires 3 skill points, requires 55,000,000 golden rings.

: Inflicts powerful ice punishment on one target.

: Level 8 and level 9 Ice Punishment exist.]

This was the skill I agonizingly passed over in the past when I had to select between it and Ice Tornado.

I was especially conflicted since I lacked single-target skills compared to AOE skills.

Of course, even if I acquired it, I would definitely use it less frequently than my AOE skills.

And to be honest, this skill was not the best for hunting.

Nevertheless, I thought it would be better to have a skill that could inflict powerful damage.
