Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 371 - Expected Ending (2)



Chapter 371 – Expected Ending (2)

Without caring about my reaction, however, President Xi continued, “They will never stop their destructive behavior. Of course, they will stay hostile towards us. As a result, Earth’s crisis will deepen even more. So much so that it can’t be compared to the confusion when monsters first appeared. And I think it’s you, Juyoung Hong, who will emerge as the hope of this earth at that time.”

“…”

“It is difficult for me and China to protect ourselves right now, but we will do our best to help you because you’re the hope of the Earth.”

President Xi instantly made me the protector of mankind, or Earth, with a few words.

Of course, at this point I seemed to figure out why he made such a statement to me.

His point was that instead of being conceited, I should get rid of those guys that he mistook for NPCs when they appeared in Osaka, for I am the guardian of the earth like Superman.

At that moment, President Xi made a conclusive statement.

“If everyone dies making clumsy attempts and only Juyoung Hong survives, wouldn’t it mean defeat for all of us?”

“…”

Of course, I could understand why he said that. As he said, they were extraordinarily strong, and I was the most powerful man on Earth who could stop them.

In fact, the Japanese Government and the Mitsuya Guild succeeded in locking them up in a certain area, but almost half of the giant city of Osaka was collateral damage.

What if these alien creatures appeared here and there around the world?

Indeed, as President Xi said, their appearance would create an unprecedented chaos that could not be compared to the appearance of monsters.

No matter how hard ‘Revival Legend’ pressed all of us to become stronger faster, we were not yet strong enough to confront these alien creatures.

I also understood President Xi’s intentions behind such a statement.

But it was President Xi, not somebody else, who spit out those words.

“Hahaha…”

I broke into an empty laugh before I knew it.

Watching me quietly, he opened his mouth.

“Don’t you think we should find a way to coexist as members of the same planet?”

I didn’t bother to take issue with his emphasis on the need to coexist.

With 29 allies behind me and 29 behind President Xi watching me closely, I didn’t have to tell him that I would step forward to get rid of these beings who threatened humanity only if I received compensation like I did for the Japan incident.

Obviously, President Xi and his men here must be filming our meeting with the Memory Bead.

Anyway, I glossed over the situation with a smile, and President Xi immediately declared that he would give up, apparently not wanting to cross the red line any more. He said he hoped he was in my good hands.

At that moment, a message rang.

[With your opponent declaring to forfeit the battle, Myongjin Team 1 won 1st place in Region 11’s ‘Strongest Guild Selection’ event.

-All members of the defeated team will be forcibly removed from the arena.]

As soon as the message rang, President Xi and the 29 people immediately disappeared as if they had evaporated.

Then another message rang.

[Congratulations! You have won 1st place in the ‘Strongest Guild Selection’ event.

– In return, you receive the following reward.

: All members of Myongjin Team 1 will obtain 1 billion Golden Rings.

: All members of Myongjin Team 1 will obtain 500 remaining stat points.

: All members of Myongjin Team 1 will obtain 20,000 coins.]

Obviously, this reward was smaller than the ‘Strongest Player Selection’ event.

Back then, even skill points were included in the reward.

Of course, I was alone then, and now there are 30 team members. The total reward is much larger this time, but I still felt it was a bit disappointing.

“Wow!!!”

“We’re No. 1!”

“Myongjin! Myongjin!”

“Juyoung Hong! Juyoung Hong!”

Unlike me who was so used to winning 1st place in any event or quest, most of those behind me hardly won 1st place, so it was natural they were so excited that they were shouting with joy

In particular, my team members included those who I selected on purpose to reward their loyalty to Myongjin even though they were relatively weak compared to others, so it was no wonder they were cheering so loudly.

Nonetheless, even they were over level 1000.

So, as soon as I first expressed the joy of winning 1st place, the message rang even more.

[All members of the Myongjin Guild selected as the strongest guild in Region 11 will receive the following rewards.

– 2000 coins that cannot be exchanged are given to all Myongjin Guild members.

(But these coins are not issued to the 30 members of Myongjin Team 1.)]

“Wow!”

I exclaimed at this message unwittingly, for even though the coins were not exchangeable and only numbered 2000, one tenth of 20,000 coins that our team members received, they were issued to all the members of the Myongjin Guild without any exception.

Considering the total number of people that Myongjin possessed, the total number of coins was in the hundreds of millions.

And the other team members shouted even louder than before once they noticed this huge number of coins. But then a message rang about selecting the strongest guild among the strongest.

[Your team has been selected as the strongest guild in Region 11.

-You can participate in the King of Kings battle in the future.

– Would you like to participate?]

As soon as the message rang, all their eyes turned to my father, not me.

For my father was the representative of my team, no matter what, even though I was the one who contributed the most to our team winning this event.

“Participate.”

[You have applied for participation in the event to select the strongest of the strongest.

– The Myongjin Guild cannot accept new members until the King of Kings event is over.]

This message was rather weird because it blocked Myongjin from accepting new members.

But everybody had no choice but to heartily laugh because it clearly suggested that all members of the Myongjin Guild would receive a reward just like the coins this time if we won in the next event as well

That’s why other players were blocked from joining us, the Myongjin Guild, who were the favorites to win

After that, another message about our departure from the arena rang. Then I felt myself being dragged somewhere, and soon found myself in the main base of the Myongjin Guild in Rodon Castle amid the tumultuous welcome of numerous Myongjin Guild members.
