Chapter 686
Chapter 686
“Cunning guy.”
Unlike the viewers, who were focused on who received the buffs, Lebron was focused on Hyeonu’s actions. Hyeonu was now adjusting the situation using Tang-E’s buffs. Lebron had received Tang-E’s buffs before, so he knew how powerful they were. Getting stronger through buffs meant they would use less magic power when killing the same monster.
‘It isn’t just a high force… he also does things like this.’
In the case of the emperor and Lebron, combat power was all they had. There were no pets like Tang-E. Naturally, taking actions similar to Hyeonu’s were impossible.
“Aren’t I helping from here? People who support you even from far away are true friends.”
“Friends? Nonsense.”
Lebron scoffed at the words. Hyeonu turned to look at where the fierce battles were taking place.
‘It looks good.’
The large-scale battles were spectacular. It was definitely fun to watch.
‘I found them.’
Hyeonu found his acquaintances in the midst of the spectacular scene.
‘There are no problems.’
New World stood out. They were unchallenged. They were a bright light in the dark blue demon world. They lit up the surroundings like a lighthouse at dawn.
-New World is really the best.
-It is because the compatibility is overwhelming.
-There is no real answer to the monk troops.
-Perhaps the demon world is an unprecedented treasure for New World.
The viewers acknowledged it. Every time they saw New World, it clearly showed that they were different from other guilds. They used the upper hand of their attributes compatibility and showed an unrivaled hunting speed.
Hyeonu smiled deeply at the promotion of New World and turned his head to search for others.
‘The Warriors are the same.’
Next was the New York Warriors. The New York Warriors were the first to be seen because they were fighting near New World.
‘Sure enough, she’s had a lot of experience receiving the buffs. She makes good use of it.’
Reina received Tang-E’s buffs and stood out from the crowd. She was overwhelming compared to everyone around her. The sight of her using the white-blue ice like it was her own limb made it impossible for anyone to take their eyes off her.
‘The front line is being pushed back.’
At this moment, the smile disappeared from Hyeonu’s face. The players were adjusting the tempo but it was a bit strange for them to be pushed back at the start.
‘Is it a bit lacking in firepower?’
They were preparing for a long-term war, so the firepower in the short-term seemed to be lacking. Even if all the players gathered here were rankers, the monsters in front of them were among the top monsters currently available in Arena.
“Tang-E, you’re going to have to step out.”
Hyeonu chose Tang-E as the answer to fill in the lacking firepower. Tang-E’s magic could show sufficient firepower over long distances.
“Heung… How much do I have to do, Master dude?” Tang-E responded to Hyeonu’s words with a slight laugh.
“Leave enough magic power to use your buffs approximately 30 times.”
He decided to leave enough magic power. Of course, even if it was exhausted immediately, Tang-E could restore his magic power right away. The amount of magic power needed to use the buffs would recover quickly.
‘It is just in case.’
He left it for ‘what ifs’.
“30 times? I understand. Then can I use it all in one blow?” Tang-E asked one more time. If the initial question was about how much magic power to use, this question was about how to use the magic power. He was free to use it as he wanted, but he still asked. It was because Hyeonu’s insight in battle was better than Tang-E’s.
“No, try to use it separately as much as possible. Just use enough to deal moderate damage to the monsters over there.”
Hyeonu thought about the power of Tang-E’s magic and soon came up with a method to use it.
“Additionally, you can only use lightning magic. Don’t use the rest. Understood?”
Then he decided on a magic. Lightning magic. Tang-E had only one spell to use in today’s battle.
“What are you saying all of a sudden, Master dude? How can I just use Lightning?” Tang-E asked with an expression of disbelief.
It was necessary to adjust the power of his magic. Naturally, less magic power was consumed, so he could use the three attack magics more often. However, Hyeonu prevented it.
“It doesn’t have high efficiency. Tang-E, don’t you already know? Lightning magic is overwhelmingly strong.”
Hyeonu naturally knew that Tang-E’s Lightning magic was ridiculously strong compared to others. Tang-E was wearing a total of three items. Two of them had the effect of dealing additional lightning attribute damage. It was natural for it to be strong.
“Groan… I understand. Then I will do so.”
Tang-E was convinced by Hyeonu’s explanation and summoned a golden orb straight away.
‘Since fancy magic like before is impossible… I should imitate that.’
Tang-E was thinking about how to use Lightning magic. Then he witnessed the magic used by the magician players. It was like summoning dozens of long spears and inserting them into the body of a demonic creature.
Tang-E injected a moderate amount of magic power into a golden bead, the heart. The heart was the engine of a car and Tang-E’s magic power was high quality petrol. The heart used magic power as fuel to cast powerful magic.
10 golden spears each measuring around 5 meters in length appeared in the air above Tang-E’s head.
“Master dude, watch carefully.”
Tang-E created powerful spears and showed a confident expression as he looked at Hyeonu. Then he soon turned to look at the battlefield.
“Here! There! Here! There!” Tang-E shouted frivolously. Unlike Tang-E’s actions, the golden spears shot toward the battlefield with a bloody momentum. The appearance of the missile-like spears attracted the eyes of the magician and priest players who weren’t directly involved in the battle.
“What is this?”
“Whose magic is that?”
“Who would use magic like that?”
“It is a nuisance, a nuisance.”
They expressed surprise at the magic that suddenly came flying. There were two reasons. They were surprised by the powerful magic and then again surprised when the magic was fired toward someone else’s battlefield without thinking about it.
“What? Tang-E?”
“Sigh… Why is he like this?”
“I can endure it since he is cute.”
“Who would say anything to him?”
After confirming that the one who cast the magic was Tang-E, they turned away without much reaction and looked toward the place where the magic aimed. Tang-E was a pet, not a player. It meant he wasn’t an existence that could be measured by their standards. Crucially, Tang-E’s master was Alley Leader. No one had the courage to say anything to Hyeonu, who had the NPCs called the emperor and Lebron behind him.
The golden spears attacked the demonic creatures. The demonic creatures weren’t fatally injured, but they felt pain. It was due to the power of the spears that Tang-E fired. Naturally, the demonic creatures were in a state of confusion and started to run wild while complaining of the pain. The moment the giant demonic creatures went on a rampage, the formation of the demon army started to become chaotic.
The front line was instantly restored to its original state.
“Well done, Tang-E. You are the best. Let’s do it up to here.”
Hyeonu confirmed the series of processes and patted Tang-E on the head while speaking words of praise.
“I am this much. Master dude.”
Tang-E smiled and posed at Hyeonu’s compliment.
“The more I see him, the more I want him. He is great in many ways.”
The emperor smacked his lips together as he watched Tang-E.
“I don’t know how they bonded, but I have to say that he is very lucky. Don’t you think so, Your Majesty?” Lebron spoke with a pleased smile from the emperor’s side.
“I hope I can have such good luck.”
The emperor looked at the friendly Hyeonu and Tang-E with strange eyes. Lebron felt the emperor’s gaze and his expression stiffened.
“I don’t know what Your Majesty is thinking, but… I want you to consider that the weight of the throne is never light.”
“The weight of the throne… that’s right. The throne is never light. Those who aren’t qualified can never sit down on it.”
The emperor turned his head toward Lebron.
“However, if you are qualified enough… isn’t it a throne that anyone with the qualifications can sit on ?”
The emperor’s eye curved in a smile.

“How much magic power do you all have left?”
“30!”
“I have 50!”
“I have 25!”
Reina’s expression stiffened as she checked the remaining magic powers of her colleagues. Their magic powers were lacking. It wasn’t by a little bit, but by a lot.
“How many potions do you have left?”
“Two bottles!”
“One bottle!”
“One bottle!”
Their potions were also on the verge of running out. At best, there were one or two left. It was an amount that was hard to sustain a long battle.
‘Still, we are in good condition.’
The New York Warriors were in good condition. Tang-E constantly buffed Reina. Based on this, Reina protected the entire team to some extent. There were already many guilds who had retreated due to a lack of magic power. Some players were even forcibly logged out.
‘I have 10 bottles. I can hold on for around 30 minutes…’
Reina felt Tang-E’s buffs continuously coming in and saved more magic power recovery potions than her teammates. Thanks to this, she had 10 bottles remaining. This meant it was possible to hunt a bit more. However, this was just a story for Reina. Her teammates could only last for 10 more minutes.
“Should we quit slowly?”
“There are too many monsters. Right now, there are less than 100 people left.”
“Let’s use all the skills that can be used and drink all the potions.”
The players, except Reina, expressed their opinions. Reina had a lot of potions left, but it was different for the others. It was better to retreat than for a lot of people to die. Then, after restoring their magic power, they would be able to join the hunt again until they ran out of magic power once more.
“You rest in the rear. I will join New World and use up all the potions I have.”
Reina had no intention of falling back now. It was the same if she fell back now or fell back after consuming all her magic power recovery potions. In any case, the team members had no way to restore magic power in the subsequent battles. Once all their magic power was exhausted, Reina would be in a situation where she couldn’t use it even if she had the magic power recovery potions.
“Is this okay?”
“Don’t overdo it.”
“It is a good choice to just retreat directly.”
Most of the team members respected Reina’s choice. They couldn’t afford to support Reina. At best, they could only hold on for five or ten minutes.
It happened at this moment…
The body of a giant demonic creature blocking the front of the New York Warriors exploded.
“What?!”
The sudden explosion startled the players of the New York Warriors. At this time, a large red box fell from the air.
“What is this?”
One of the players of New York Warriors took advantage of the brief time generated by the mysterious explosion to open the red box. It contained high grade recovery potions.
