The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 391

"If it's a pure white color, does it have something to do with the white administrator?"

Sung JiHan, who had a rough idea of where the interference came from through the color of the message window.

"It seems like they're using me as bait to lure out the red administrator."

Is the red administrator they suspect ultimately a non-believer?

Although Sung JiHan didn't particularly like being used as bait by the administrators.

"But I still have to take what I can get."

I won't not receive compensation just because I feel bad.

Sung JiHan decided to pursue the reward.

The special condition that was released.

"The condition of '10 years of channel operation' for upgrading the comprehensive viewer evaluation will be lifted."

"The comprehensive viewer evaluation will rise to the 'famous' grade."

It was none other than the release of the special condition that was blocking the upgrade of the star buff.

"So that was the special condition?"

The condition was 10 years of channel operation.

If it hadn't been released like this, the upgrade of the star buff would have been a distant dream.

"Indeed, it seems that the white administrator is related to the Battle Tube."

Sung JiHan thought so while mainly looking at the messages from the white administrator that gave rewards related to the Battle Tube.

"The star buff will be upgraded."

"When the star buff is activated, all stats will be amplified by 100%."

"By achieving a 100% amplification effect, a special upgrade item will be created."

"Please choose one of the two items."

"Sacred Nova"

-Upgrades the effect of the star buff from the existing one.

-As the number of simultaneous viewers increases, the buff effect amplifies even more, and when the "Super Nova" mode is activated, the effect of the star buff increases by 10 times.

-However, using the supernova will make the sacred effect disappear.

"Regular Channel"

-If you continue streaming three times a week for five years.

-It will be scheduled as one of the "Regular Channels" of the Battle Tube, and you can gain the reputation of the Holy See when playing videos.

-However, the effect of the star buff will disappear.

Sacred and Regular Channel.

The answer was clearly there as to which one to choose.

"Sacred."

Although becoming a regular channel would allow him to accumulate the difficult-to-obtain reputation of the Holy See.

There was a fatal drawback of losing the star buff.

In peaceful times, he would have chosen the latter for greater development.

"But in a crisis situation like now, power is the most important."

Sung JiHan chose the sacred in the two upgrade options.

Then.

"The effect of Sacred Nova is added to the star buff."

"The buff efficiency increases proportionally to the number of viewers."

"Since it doesn't exceed the threshold, the stat amplification remains at 100%."

Sung JiHan, who immediately applied the effect of the sacred.

However, it seemed that the threshold was quite high, as the proportional buff amplification based on the number of viewers did not apply.

"That's settled...."

After organizing the epic quest rewards like that, Sung JiHan.

-Jihan-nim!! How come you didn't choose the racial bonus??

-Oh, stop bothering him; he seems to be thinking about it now haha

-Oh, I'm curious too! Let's see what bonus we get before we go idle!

-If we get four bonuses this time, can we become intermediate race??

-How long has it been since we became low rank lol

As expected by the viewers, Sung JiHan decided to open the racial bonus.

"Where should I look?"

This time, there are a total of four racial evolution bonuses.

Two for summoning the brain god and two for subduing him.

[Would you like to receive the racial bonus?]

Sung JiHan was waiting for the example to be pressed.

"Well then, let's open the racial bonus."

Thump.

As Sung JiHan received the reward, a message appeared.

[Special reward, 'Racial Evolution Bonus' is given.]

[Fire affinity increases by +1]

[Fire affinity increases by +1]

[Fire affinity increases by +1]

[Magic power increases by +3]

This time, the racial bonus that was triggered only had the fire affinity increased three times.

-... Why only fire affinity?

-Didn't you catch the brain god? It's not even +1 to brain affinity lol

-The fire mages are completely lucky.

-Since most mages learn fire attribute attack magic as their basic, only the mages benefited from this racial bonus.

-Regular people won't feel much this time....

-Does it mean they won't get burned? If the affinity goes up lol

Even the viewers who expected to receive a whopping four racial bonuses showed a bewildered reaction to this result.

Originally, the brain god was subdued, so why did they only receive three fire affinity bonuses that had no relation to him?

"It's confusing, but with the increase in affinity, it's definitely easier to use the stat advantage."

The stat advantage that had stopped growing at 60.

At that time, if it continued to increase, it seemed like the enemies inside wouldn't listen, so Sung JiHan stopped growing.

With the increase in fire affinity, controlling fire became easier, and Sung JiHan was able to control it freely.

"...It's unlikely that this is just a coincidence. They are openly pushing me to withstand the power of the red administrator."

Among the numerous affinities, it was difficult to see the increase of only three fire affinities as a coincidence.

It seemed that the intention of the administrators was also contained here.

"I have to use everything they offer, even if their intentions are obvious."

Once the domination of the enemies is complete, I have to take out the eyes from the black seal and increase my stats.

Sung JiHan thought this and logged out.

[Racial bonus obtained from Boss Rush. Giving wings to fire mages!]

[Are the administrators of BattleNet beings greater than gods? Speculating on their identity, which the extraterrestrial beings admire.]

[Sung JiHan, who obtained a GP with a 70 times payout through self-betting, is now the richest person on Earth?]

[Is Sung JiHan a decoy? The shocking story heard from the Sung JiHan channel with the installation of the Light's Eye.]

The Boss Rush that obtained four racial bonuses.

Even after the game ended, it became a global topic.

-The damage of the mages increased a lot, right?

-Yeah, the mages who focus on fire magic were almost twice as happy with the increase in damage.

-There were almost no mages who didn't learn fire magic, so the atmosphere among the mages was festive.

-But the warriors also have increased fire resistance, so it's easier to withstand fire than before.

-Really? Regular people don't seem much different from before lol

-Yeah, I had a lot of fun with health promotion, so I'm a little disappointed.

Unlike most of humanity who had benefited so far,

This bonus felt like it was mainly strengthened for mages.

Of course, due to the increase in fire affinity, all players had increased resistance to fire.

But compared to what mages felt, its usefulness was definitely weaker.

And.

-To the owner of the arena, the administrator... What is Sung JiHan doing with the Sung JiHan?

-Sung JiHan set up a trap by himself. This is going to be interesting.

-Now that the Eye of Light has appeared, the original information that should have been off the record is coming in as it is. LOL.

-Well, Sung JiHan is such a transcendent being, so isn't it just a problem related to him?

-No, no. The owner of the arena clearly told Sung JiHan that he would give him and humanity a chance.

-Then what happens if we miss the opportunity?

-Destruction? --;

Due to the Eye of Light, people who heard unfiltered information were busy making various speculations.

Meanwhile,

"Jihan! It seems like this time the racial bonus has an effect on me too!"

As usual, Sofia, who came to the penthouse to hang out, looked at Sung JiHan with excitement.

"Is the Flame Enhancement effect stronger?"

"Yes!"

When Sofia opened her palm,

Whoosh!

The white flame, the Flame, which used to seem weak and would go out quickly, was now burning intensely.

"I think this is about 70% of what it used to be. Is it compatible with the Fire attribute?"

"I see..."

Sung JiHan nodded his head and looked closely at the Flame.

The white flame, the Flame.

It was a complex flame that could feel the power of divinity, the power of enemies, and various energies at the same time.

Since the stat has increased to 60, almost twice as much as before, Sung JiHan wondered if he could find out something about the Flame, but...

"...I still don't know."

He still couldn't sense what other energies made up the Flame.

"Considering that Pithia gave it to me and took it back, there must be something significant..."

Should he look for clues somewhere other than the stat?

Sung JiHan looked at the Flame a few more times.

"Ah, it's getting hard to maintain now..."

"Yes, then let's stop here."

As the Flame went out, Sung JiHan decided to stop examining it for today.

Meanwhile,

"Hmm..."

Yoon Sae-ah, who had been watching Sung JiHan's boss rush game on the living room TV over and over again, stopped the playback after Sung JiHan finished examining the Flame and asked him a question.

"Uncle. Why did the racial bonus cause dissatisfaction? Was it because of that red administrator... because of his actions?"

"Probably."

"Well, even the Space Head Uncle only talks about uncomfortable things. It's like bait, the last chance... It's something meaningful."

Yoon Sae-ah looked at Sung JiHan with a worried expression and said.

"...How did you hear all that?"

"The uncle's broadcast is now fully aired."

"Oh, did it all come out?"

"Well, people are making all sorts of speculations right now."

The Eye of Light, which was accepted to maintain the Star Buff.

It caused the side effect of all information being revealed to humanity.

"But... well. But now that I think about it again, what's wrong with it being revealed?"

As raw information, such as the connection with the missing red administrator, comes out,

The number of extraterrestrial viewers has increased exponentially, and even the Great Seats have shown interest.

The more attention is focused on the Battle Tube, the stronger the Star Buff will become.

"I'm already riding a tiger... Above all, strengthening my power is the top priority."

Now, even if it meant attracting more attention, it was time to openly disclose information rather than hiding it.

"After the situation is further clarified, it wouldn't be a bad idea to give a briefing on the current situation...."

If the channel's growth is slowing down, maybe I should try it once.

Sung JiHan decided to go into full disclosure mode about the situation.

It was also a good opportunity to utilize the sacred attribute of Star Buff.

"I haven't fully organized the information related to the Red Administrator yet. I'll tell you all about it later."

"Really?"

"Yes. I'm even planning to do a broadcast openly."

"On BattleTube? Heh... JiHan, didn't heroes used to hide their powers?"

"That's for heroes from the old days. Nowadays, self-promotion is important, you know?"

When Sung JiHan casually mentioned it like that,

Yoon SaeA looked at him with a worried expression and eventually nodded.

"...Alright. I'll wait until Uncle tells me."

"Okay."

"Well then, let's put this issue aside for now and focus on the China War."

"China War?"

"Yes, it's happening in three days."

"Oh, really?"

Sung JiHan responded with a heavy tone.

It felt like he was becoming the bait for the Administrator's scheme.

Showing interest in the national war felt like interfering in a child's fight.

"Yes... Thanks to the racial bonus this time, Jeon GyeolHeon from China has become too strong, so I'm worried about the next match."

"Jeon GyeolHeon from China? Isn't he the Fire Mage? The one who draws the Eight Trigrams?"

"There must be a trigram related to fire, right? He's from an extraordinary generation."

"Hmm... Is that so? Stay strong."

"Ugh, Uncle, haven't you changed your mind about retiring?"

"Well, I did. But it's a bit too much to participate in the regional league."

Sung JiHan, who stood alone in an unrivaled position among human players.

Instead of the gap narrowing as time went on, it only grew wider.

Now, when others were competing, he felt a bit reluctant to participate in the national war.

"Of course, if Korea achieves first place in the world rankings, there might be achievements related to the Holy See's reputation...."

So he had thought about retiring from the national team.

But recently, the situation had become so urgent that he didn't have the time to focus on the national war.

"But... um, Uncle. If you have the time, could you just show your face at the BattleNet Center that day?"

"Why?"

"I saw last time that they didn't ban you in China."

"Well, they might not ban me. Since I rarely participate in matches."

Sung JiHan casually retorted.

"But other countries ban you just in case, and China didn't. The coach suspected that there might be a spy from China in the BattleNet Center...?"

"Is that so?"

"Yes, you don't have to participate in the match... Just drop by the center if you have time. If there's a spy inside, they'll ban you, and if not, they won't ban you even if you come, right?"

Do you want to find out if there's a spy or not?

"Well, the center is right next to my house."

I'll just show my face for a moment and then go to the training ground.

"Alright. I'll drop by for a bit."

Sung JiHan replied lightly, as if visiting a friend's house.

And three days later.

"...Mr. Sung JiHan."

To Sung JiHan, who came to the BattleNet Center just to show his face,

One of the staff members approached him secretly.

"I... came to deliver a message from 'that person'."
