The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 194

Joint 1st place in the Space League.

Among the 20 planets participating in the league, 10 teams tied for 1st place and 10 teams tied for last place.

The effect of this was significant.

[Being in the top ranks of the league grants a favorable GP exchange rate.]

The price of GP exchanged on Battle.net also dropped.

[Currently, the existing dungeon portals have disappeared in large numbers. Dungeons will only be generated in the bottom 5% of countries.]

The dungeon portals that were generated in the bottom 10% of countries have decreased dramatically to 5%.

This means that out of the approximately 200 countries on Earth, dungeons will only appear in 10.

In fact, it has become easier to manage than during the previous tutorial.

-Wow... Is this the effect of being in 1st place?

-Are you kidding?

-Sung JiHan saved us, seriously;

Until the next Space League match, we can enjoy the benefits of being joint 1st place for a considerable period of time.

People enjoyed the festive atmosphere for a while.

[Points in the Space League will be calculated daily.]

[League points can be obtained not only through official league matches, but also through Battle.net games.]

[The league will expand. A Master League and Grand Master League will be created above the Diamond League.]

[In future Battle.net games above the Master League, matchmaking will be done with races within the Space League.]

After a day passed, another change occurred on Battle.net due to the announcement.

The points that determine the ranking in the Space League are not only from official league matches.

They can now also be obtained through the performance of players in regular Battle.net games.

And due to the points being calculated in this way, the ranking of humanity has changed immediately.

[Humanity has dropped from joint 1st place to 8th place. World Tree Elves - 71 jumped up to 11th place in one go.]

["Elf execution, it's actually beneficial!" Coach Davis, who had been advocating for dismissal, claimed that he was right after seeing the changes in the league.]

[Dungeon portals have changed their range back to 10% of countries. However, the disappeared dungeon portals will not be generated again.]

-Among the 10 races that lost in the opening match against the Elves, are they the ones who earned the most points then?

-Yeah, they earned 202 points alone. We earned about 100 in a day, lol.

-Still, if you win in the league match, you get 10,000 points +. The score difference is still quite large...

-If the points you earn daily accumulate, it will be huge in the end, right?

-Yeah, did Coach Davis really make the right decision? Wow.

"If we hadn't been executed yesterday, we could have earned more points, Elves."

"Yeah. It was a good decision to kill them."

The living room of the penthouse.

Yoon Sae-ah muttered to herself while looking at the points displayed in the Space League ranking.

500 points per day in the league.

There were only six planets that obtained more than 200 points.

The planets ranked 1st to 5th and World Tree Elves - 71, who became 11th.

Considering that other races couldn't even earn a maximum of 150 points in a day, it was clear how strong the World Tree Elves were.

Meanwhile, Sung JiHan recalled his memories while looking at the points.

"The races ranked 1st to 5th are probably the Elves and the Dragonkin of the World Tree Union... The amount of points they earn is different from before."

In the previous life, the Elves of the World Tree Union received at least 240 points.

And when the players advanced to the Master League and Grand Master League later on.

The daily point acquisition reached almost 500.

Compared to the fact that humanity barely reached 200 points in the last moment, it was an enormous number.

So people lamented that they couldn't earn more points than the Elves in the opening match.

However, for those numbers to be generally low...

"There might be a connection with the execution of the elves..."

The power of World Tree -71 has been greatly destroyed, so did they have to relocate the players on the five planets?

The exact facts are still unknown, but Sung JiHan judged that this would have a significant impact in the future.

Currently, the amount of points gained is only a few tens of difference.

But later, when the league's final settlement comes, this difference will become enormous.

"Uncle, by the way, what is the existence of the Holy See? Did it appear in the prophecy? "

As Yoon Sae-ah looked at the newly added Holy See slot after the tutorial, she tilted her head.

Ariella, who was watching TV on the sofa, answered instead of Sung JiHan.

"The Holy See is the ruler of the planets recognized by BattleNet. Specifically, it is a player who has achieved level 777."

"So, it's a senior in BattleNet?"

"To call it a senior, you can see it from that perspective... Anyway, the Holy See supports players according to their own purposes. Mainly supporting those who can be useful and also benefiting themselves."

"Really? Hmmm... I can be useful too, why don't they support me?"

Because Sung JiHan was so outstanding last year.

Yoon Sae-ah's growth was also remarkable.

To the point where she could confidently say she was "useful" herself.

However...

"Your gift, isn't the grade still low?"

"Yes, it's C grade. I have to meet an 'appropriate' Holy See to be promoted to B."

The promotion condition of the perpetual waiting list that was opened after the tutorial.

To upgrade to B, she had to receive support from the Holy See.

"The Holy See doesn't know everything. Maybe they judge based on the gift grade of the player they support. If it's C grade, they won't pay any attention."

"Oh... really? I'm doomed then?"

Yoon Sae-ah made a perplexed expression.

The Holy See selects the target to support based solely on the gift grade.

The perpetual waiting list with grade C was immediately filtered out.

"If the supporting Holy See doesn't appear, I'll talk to the Shadow Queen."

"Oh, really? Is this how you get a job through connections?"

"Well, don't expect too much. Even I can only make suggestions to the Queen."

"But at least I won't get rejected right away and I can submit my resume. Do you have a Holy See, Uncle?"

"Me? Yes, I do. The Brain Throne."

"Wow... The Brain Throne of the Divine Throne? That god was also a player?"

"Ah, not only players become Holy Sees. Becoming a Holy See with level 777 is just one way."

"Really? The universe is vast indeed..."

While Yoon Sae-ah and Ariella were having a conversation about the Holy See,

Beep. Beep beep.

The sound of the doorbell rang from outside the living room, and Yoon Se-jin came in.

After the opening match ended, he had a meeting with the BattleNet Federation's exploration team to prepare for dungeon exploration.

He approached Sung JiHan with a serious face.

"Brother-in-law... Can you help me a bit?"

"What's the matter?"

"With the victory in the opening match, the dungeon portals in North Korea have disappeared in large numbers. As a result, the Abyss, which gains power from the dungeon portals, has also weakened..."

The Abyss, the upper-level dungeon created by the gathering of dungeon portals.

Originally, Yoon Se-jin planned to gradually weaken the Abyss by systematically clearing the outer dungeon portals.

But due to the victory of humanity in the opening match, the plan was accelerated.

"So, should we explore the Abyss right away?"

"No, it's too early for that. It seems like we need to first remove the four giant dungeon portals around the Abyss. But the investigation team of the Federation says they need more power and don't seem to want to proceed with the investigation right away."

"If we have Maehyeong, we should have enough power, honestly."

"Maybe it's because it's the first time entering the giant dungeon portals. They seem to be cautious..."

Giant dungeon portals summoned from the four cardinal directions around the Abyss.

They still maintained their large scale, not disappearing even after the opening battle victory.

Until now, they were easily eliminated.

But this time, there seems to be a significant difference in size, so the Federation investigation team is taking a more conservative approach.

"Understood. I'll go too, then."

"Oh... Are you sure it's okay?"

"Yes. I'm your sister, so it's natural. And I've also reached the maximum level."

After winning five games in the opening battle, Sung JiHan reached level 200.

Now, until the January promotion battle, he couldn't level up anymore.

There should be enough time.

Sung JiHan decided to help Geomwang and find his sister.

"I'll join right away."

"Brother, Dad... I'm also in Platinum. Can't I participate?"

"We don't know what might happen in the dungeon portal. It would be better if you waited at home."

"Okay. I'll be one serving if I get diamonds. Just quietly level up and wait. I'll be back soon."

Although Yoon Sae-ah had exceptional skills.

At a time when they didn't know what might come out of the giant dungeon portal, they had to minimize the risks as much as possible.

"...Okay, I understand."

Disappointed by their refusal, she reluctantly nodded as if she had regained her appetite.

She wasn't a child who would throw a tantrum just because she also wanted to find her mother.

"Then I'll be back."

"Yeah, come back~"

Three days after Sung JiHan joined the investigation team.

[Sung JiHan. Joins the dungeon investigation team! It is revealed that he will devote himself to dungeon exploration until the promotion battle.]

[With reinforced power, the investigation team challenges the giant dungeon portal for the first time. Will North Korea be liberated?]

The attention of everyone was focused on the movement of the investigation team, challenging the giant dungeon portal for the first time in the world.

* * *

The dungeon exploration itself proceeded quickly.

"With Sung JiHan joining, it's like a walk in the park."

"It feels like we're on an outing, not a dungeon. Hahaha."

The Federation investigation team, who were worried about what might come out of the giant dungeon portal.

Once they entered, powerful monsters that were stronger than the previous dungeon portals would occasionally appear.

Thud!

The sword pierced the ground.

Mumyungsin Gong.

Myeolsin Gyeol.

Mangwibongshin.

When Mangwibongshin revealed its pattern, most of the ghost monsters that dominated the enemy were instantly sucked into it.

"Wow...! The ghosts are all gone!"

"I never thought I would see Sung JiHan using his power up close like this...! It was a good decision to support the investigation team!"

Sung JiHan was already a player who received global attention.

But after leading the opening battle victory against the elves, his status had risen even further.

At the moment when 20 percent was about to be executed, the situation completely turned around.

Now, not only the general public, but also Battle.net officials and players would say that they were Sung JiHan's passionate fans.

"Red Lightning is coming out...!"

"We have to take a picture of this!"

Click. Click.

Phone cameras going off from all directions.

Ignoring the investigation that the investigation team told him to do, Sung JiHan only frowned and took pictures.

"Hey. When are you going to explore the dungeon core?"

"Uh, well..."

"It still hasn't been found. Haha."

"It still hasn't been found? What's the grade?"

"It's a B."

Although the supporting gift exploration B was enough to have an effect up to the regular dungeon portal.

It seemed ineffective in the giant dungeon portal.

"It seems like the grade is a big problem. Christoph needs to join us quickly."

The commentator of channel 0, Christoph.

Thanks to Sung JiHan's popularity this time, he immediately took a long vacation and boarded a plane to Korea, saying he would repay the favor.

"Well, it seems like he's bringing a lot of luggage... But it's not as dangerous as I thought."

Swish. Swish.

The White Sword of the Sword King, freely cutting through the dungeon, directly piercing the ghosts.

Aaaaaa...

The enemies turned into smoke and disappeared in an instant.

Honestly, the giant dungeon seemed like something the Sword King could handle alone.

The problem was the exploration.

"Well, since we know that B doesn't work, let's try something else."

"Understood..."

And so, on the third day, the giant dungeon portal that couldn't be removed because the dungeon core exploration wasn't happening.

One evening.

"Sung! I'm here! Um, sorry..."

"JiHan! I'm here too!"

"Sophie insisted on coming too, so I brought her... Is it safe here?"

"It's safe."

The situation changed when Christoph and his group joined.

"It seems like it's here?"

Christoph's exploration, which clearly showed its effectiveness even in the giant dungeon portal.

The dungeon core, which had been a struggle for three days, was revealed in an instant.

And after breaking the dungeon core.

Boooooom...!

"No... the ring...!"

Yoon Se-jin's ring, vibrating intensely.

The ring was completely tainted by the void energy that Yoon Se-ah had discerned.

And within it.

A familiar voice to him, his sister's voice.

=Yoon Se-jin... I will... curse you...!

It sounded so eerie that it sent shivers down his spine.
