Chapter 393
China Match 1.
=Uh...!
=Yoon Se-ah, the player, looks different from usual.
=This, is it the appearance during undead transformation...?
=If it's undead transformation... could it be...?
=Sung JiHan, were you in the waiting room!?
=Yoon Se-ah! She's charging in alone!
As soon as the game started, undead Yoon Se-ah charged into China's camp alone.
"Oh, undead transformation...!"
"Could it be that Sung JiHan was in the waiting room?"
"Why now...!"
"Support! Try to counter with divine power!"
Knowing the power of undead transformation, the Chinese national team tried to resist her in any way possible.
Bang! Bang!
Yoon Se-ah, amplified by the power of void, completely devastated the enemy camp.
-Oh, undead transformation...!
-Sung JiHan came out? Wow.
-Why did China ban Sung JiHan all of a sudden?
-Huh? But why didn't China ban her?
-Is information leaking?
-But even if Sung JiHan didn't come out, it seems like a victory lol.
Even though she was banned, Sung JiHan still had the ability to influence the game.
Even though she didn't participate, she showed a significant presence that shook the first match.
=Match 1, ends!
=The power of undead that was shown in the USA match is revealed once again!
=Even if Je Gal-heon has become stronger, he still can't match this power.
=Today's match was the most important one to determine the top team in Northeast Asia... It seems like the result will be good since Sung JiHan played, right?
=Yes, that's correct. We were worried because Je Gal-heon became stronger, but we can let go of our concerns!
After the first match ended in victory, the commentators couldn't hide their excitement.
In the most important China match of this regional league, Sung JiHan appeared.
Now there was no need to watch the game anymore.
-Oh... Sung JiHan... Why is she coming out...
-She didn't appear in the regional league until now, why today...
-It's useless even if she's banned.
-Just turn off the TV. It's going to be 3:0 anyway.
-Since it turned out like this, they should just unban Sung JiHan and let her play.
Meanwhile, in China.
After the loss in the first match, the viewers left in disappointment.
If even undead Yoon Se-ah couldn't win, what hope is there?
On the other hand.
Chi-iik...
Yoon Se-ah, who came out of the Battle.net Connector, approached Sung JiHan and spoke.
"Uncle, this undead transformation... has it become stronger?"
"Oh? Did the void grow stronger during that time?"
"Yes. I can be more active in the Space League as well."
Swish. Swish.
Yoon Se-ah, mimicking shooting an arrow, showed the sensation of completely annihilating the Chinese team in the first match.
"Uncle, if I keep getting banned, I'll be the MVP of this series."
"...Ji-han. I don't receive the effects of undead transformation, right?"
"Because you don't have void, it only works in-game."
"I see... That's a shame."
Yoon Se-jin, who was completely overshadowed by Yoon Se-ah's performance, seemed disappointed as he tasted his food.
"If you're going to get banned in the second match as well, should we do the same as before?"
"Sure."
If Yoon Se-ah ends the game like this, she won't be able to follow Gilgamesh's prophecy to appear in the China match.
'I have to figure out a way to make it happen on their side.'
If she keeps getting banned in the game, how can she come out?
If she has something she wants to say, she can make it happen on her own.
With that in mind, Sung JiHan renewed the eternal blessing he had given to Yoon Se-ah.
And the second game begins.
=Uh... They didn't ban Sung JiHan! Instead, they banned two players ranked 1-10!
=What is the Chinese coach thinking? By doing this, Sung JiHan will be released from the ban...
=Even if Sung JiHan gets banned, if Yoon SeA becomes Undead, they will lose, so is he hoping that two players from the top 10 will be affected?
=It's statistically unlikely that only the two of them will get banned...
=But from China's perspective, their win rate is so low that they're resorting to this gamble!
"The Chinese coach changed his strategy."
"Banning two players from the top 10... Are they hoping for a miracle?"
The second-ranked team in the world is resorting to a ban card, relying on luck because they have no other cards to play.
As the players looked at the ban card the Chinese coach revealed, they couldn't help but laugh.
And...
"Oh, China's ban. It worked quite well!"
"Yoon SeJin and Yoon SeA both got banned!"
"If Sung JiHan wasn't there, the second game would have been difficult."
"But..."
"We survived, right?"
If Sung JiHan wasn't there, it would have been a ban card that could have brought a perfect victory to China.
With one rank 1 player surviving, the effectiveness of that card was as good as nothing.
"I'll be back."
"Yeah. Hurry up and come back~ We're getting ready for the third game."
When Sung JiHan plays, the national team game will be over in less than a minute.
Yoon SeA thought that and was preparing for the next game, but...
"No, it might take a while."
"Huh? Is Uncle going out?"
Sung JiHan nodded.
If he just crushed the Chinese players with force, the game would be over in less than a minute.
But to hear the secret that Gilgamesh promised to reveal, it would take some time.
"He wouldn't just tell him that. He must have done something in the game."
Sung JiHan was confident that Gilgamesh wouldn't stay quiet and lightly tapped Yoon SeA's head.
"Uh, I mean, I'll rest."
"Yeah..."
Whoosh!
Sung JiHan entered the Battle.net connector.
Yoon SeA watched his back and thought.
"...Even if it takes a long time, won't it be a 2-minute cut?"
The difference in power was overwhelming.
One.
"Uh... It's really not ending..."
As Sung JiHan said, the game didn't end right away.
* * *
The second game map, 'Daesurim'.
A dense forest filled with giant trees.
Among the game maps on Battle.net, it was famous for having a long playtime.
This vast forest had so many hiding places.
When the survivors of each team hid and engaged in guerrilla warfare, the game would drag on.
But...
-How long do you think it will take?
-5 minutes.
-1 minute.
-No, won't it end in 30 seconds if I swing my sword once?
-It's the Daesurim map, so it won't end that quickly. It takes time to find the kids in guerrilla warfare.
-So I think Sung JiHan will probably not waste time and end it, even if he's annoyed.
-Is there a bet on this? LOL
If Sung JiHan is playing, no matter how long the Daesurim map is, it won't take long.
The outcome of the game was already decided, so the viewers were interested in how quickly he would win.
And so, the game began.
"Let's go to the Chinese camp first."
Whoosh!
As soon as the game started, Sung JiHan immediately headed into the forest.
Originally, it was a map that took a long time to find the opposing team's location.
"Here."
As Sung JiHan expanded his senses, he immediately detected their whereabouts.
Thud!
Sung JiHan stood in front of the Chinese players.
"No, they found us already..."
"S-Sung JiHan..."
"Ugh... is it already the next match?"
"Why didn't we ban him..."
Players flinched and slowly backed away.
Among them were people who accepted Sung JiHan as their supporting Sung JiHan.
- Estimated time for a 1-minute cut.
- I wonder how it feels to be killed by your own Sung JiHan lol...
- It's good manners to just finish it quickly.
- Let's just split them up quickly.
Now, when Sung JiHan extends his sword, everyone expects it to be the end.
"S-Sung JiHan..."
"H-He's finally here!"
Among the Chinese players, the five with their ears slightly sticking out stepped forward trembling.
"..."
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"What do you expect us to do if you leave the camp?"
In the midst of the sudden players' actions, even the same team was confused.
"Wow, it's the King! He will judge you...!"
"I humbly submit myself to the King of the Beginning! I will offer my body...!"
Thud!
Players who took out daggers from their inventories stabbed themselves in the chest.
"Ugh..."
"I-I'm starting the summoning ritual..."
When the Chinese player at the front spoke like that,
As blood flowed from the spot where the dagger was inserted, they began to draw a magic circle.
As the blood of the five flowed, the magic circle was gradually completed.
- It's slow...
- Is it another Gilgamesh seeing how his ears are sticking out?
- Seems like it.
- But why is Sung JiHan just watching?
- It's manners to wait when transforming or summoning.
It took quite some time until the magic circle summoned something.
"...When will it end?"
"W-Wait...! The blood..."
After waiting for the completion, it's really something else.
Sung JiHan furrowed his brows and spoke to the Chinese player behind them.
"Everyone? Please give some heals to your teammates. They're lacking blood."
"Yes, yes. Great Heal!"
Following Sung JiHan's words, the Chinese players gave heals again.
Under Sung JiHan's tacit approval, the magic circle was completed through the collaboration of the Chinese players.
"It's... done...!"
Shooooo...
Inside the magic circle, the golden tower slowly began to rise.
It was a miniature version of the Babel Tower seen before, the Golden Tower.
Whirr. Whirr.
After rotating once...
[Sung JiHan. Become mine.]
Swoosh!
Dozens of blood-red chains sprang out from within and flew towards Sung JiHan.
'The Heavenly Chain of Gods. But why is it so weak?'
Is it because the sacrifices are weak?
To block it, it's an easy task to block the blood-red chains.
Sung JiHan hesitated whether to block it right away.
"No... I have to hear what you're saying."
He extended one arm.
And then...
Swoosh!
Chains wrapped around his right arm all at once.
Of course, the crimson chains of the Babel Tower were aiming for Sung JiHan's body.
"Don't go anywhere else."
Sung JiHan moved through space, immediately blocking the movement of the other side.
The chains could only settle on his arm.
Shhh...
As the chains wrapped around his arm, they began to emit a golden light.
"Hey, it tickles."
[It tickles... This won't do any harm to you.]
"Did you really think it would be possible with such an offering?"
[I wondered. I didn't have high expectations either.]
Flash! Flash!
As that happened, the golden light of the chains grew stronger.
In Sung JiHan's mind, a single image began to be engraved.
"This is something I recently saw."
Gilgamesh, a god hidden in darkness, emitting a crimson light all over his body.
And when that light reached the sky and touched the Babel Tower...
Aaaahhh...!
The already powerful strength of the god began to noticeably amplify.
"...Did the Babel Tower have that much power?"
Sung JiHan had seen a star full of holes before.
When he was summoned to the Babel Tower by Dong BangSak, who told him to give up his soul.
He had said that if he gave up his abilities, he would receive one of those towers instead.
At the time, he had simply ignored it.
"I didn't know it had such a strong power..."
Although he had seen it through Gilgamesh's eyes.
The god connected to the Babel Tower was emitting at least ten times stronger energy than before.
The gap that seemed difficult to close even when he was just a god...
When connected to the Babel Tower, it was becoming much wider.
The god showed off his amplified power like that, and the image disappeared.
[Did you see it?]
From within the chains, Gilgamesh's voice could be heard.
[Even if it's the Babel Tower, it can't amplify its power like that. To strengthen a god ten times... It's impossible.]
"..."
[But how is it possible? I was very curious about that. So, I separately investigated the Babel Tower. I put all my effort into it.]
Swoosh.
The screen changed again.
The destroyed tower, lying on the floor of the star full of holes, entered Sung JiHan's eyes.
Was this something Gilgamesh found in the star?
[And then, I discovered one fact.]
"...What is it?"
[This tower had enormous data engraved on it. It contained the records from when humanity entered the BattleNet and was demoted until its destruction.]
Records from when they entered the BattleNet and until their destruction.
Sung JiHan furrowed his brow.
Weren't those the events he experienced in his previous life...?
[And within this data, I was ultimately defeated by a god... and you, Sung JiHan, were the last one to survive among humanity.]
"...Me?"
[Yes, Sung JiHan. Let's join forces.]
Gilgamesh's voice had always been confident, but at this moment, it seemed to lack strength.
[With the Babel Tower in the sky, no one can defeat a god... You and I must cooperate against him.]
