All Master Returning to Bronze Episode 130

[The National Competition opening match has ended.]

The opening match that lasted a full 4 hours had come to an end.

It was inevitable since it was a Battle Royale format game with hundreds of participating players instead of the usual 100.

Moreover, since it was the National Competition, players didn’t play recklessly as usual but played cautiously and carefully, making the prolonged duration inevitable.

The results of the opening match conducted this way were surprising.

[The winning team is Korea.]

Because the winning team of the opening match was none other than Korea.

Shin-hyeok Choi one-trick team.

Legendary Shin-hyeok Choi cup, and so on.

It was more than enough to shock people who thought Korea was a strong team only when Shin Hyeok was part of it.

[Is this for real?]

Why are we in 1st place when I opened my eyes?

└That’s because…

└Probably…

└Yes~ I’ve informed you~

└But it’s amazing. Su-a Han is damn strong…

└Hmm, but for a dual class of Priest and Paladin, her fighting style and personality are a bit…

└She was crazy. I mean, is it real that she didn’t get pushed back in a head-on fight with a Berserker?

Especially the shock among Koreans was great.

1st place? Us? In such a situation, they focused on Su-a, the hero of victory.

A 20-year-old woman who just reached Platinum.

She was closer to a girl than a woman, and her prowess shown on the battlefield was shockingly amazing.

Not only did she eliminate dozens of players alone, but she also made it to the final two and ultimately won in a duel against Ellis Veronia from the United States.

Of course, it wasn’t all good points.

[Isn’t she a madwoman rather than a saint?]

I was really shocked when I saw her call Ellis an auntie;;

└Auntie (22 years old)

└But if she’s 20, well, that could happen.

└Most importantly, Ellis will always be 2 years older than Han Sua for life ㅇㅇ

└ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It was fucking hilarious how Alice immediately went into berserker mode after being called auntie ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Because Su-a’s appearance and words and actions in this opening match brought great waves and shock.

Eventually, people instinctively knew there was only one nickname for Su-a.

[Madwoman Su-a Han!]

└We can group her with Ellis Veronia and call them the Two Mad

└I agree

└I agree

└I agree

└By triple agreement, Su-a Han’s nickname is now decided as Madwoman. Bang bang bang!

Madwoman.

Su-a, who had proudly joined the Kwang Family along with Ellis from the aforementioned Kwang Family, was now-

“Shin Hyeok! I won!”

“I said you would win, didn’t I?”

“Hehe, that auntie Ellis was nothing special!”

“For someone who was nothing special, didn’t you struggle quite a bit.”

“…Hey! Just praise me right now!”

She was sticking right next to Shin Hyeok, wagging her tail enthusiastically.

Well, she didn’t actually have a tail, but Su-a was so excited that everyone watching felt that way.

Watching such Su-a, Shin Hyeok smiled and ruffled her hair.

“Good work.”

“…Hehe, yeah!”

Normally she would have yelled not to mess up her hair, but there was no need to complain about already disheveled hair getting more messy.

Most importantly, Su-a was in a good mood right now.

Winning the opening match was good, and defeating that annoying auntie who always conversed with Shin Hyeok on TV was also good.

Moreover, the energy from Shin Hyeok’s head patting was soothing her insides that were exhausted from the battle with Ellis, making her feel cool and warm.

Like a cat craving its owner’s touch, she purred and enjoyed the caressing for a while.

“I guess it’s my turn now.”

“Ah.”

“I’ll be back.”

“…Yeah. Absolutely don’t lose!”

“Of course. Keep watching.”

It ended when Shin Hyeok got up from his seat.

The opening match was over and it was time for the main event to begin.

Shin Hyeok moved to where the national representatives participating in the main event were warming up, lightly stretched, and put on his equipment.

He wore the Armor of Absorption, held the Arcane Spear and Holy Sword in each hand, and slung Admiral Chungmu’s bow on his back.

Since he was already wearing all his accessories, it didn’t take very long.

With all preparations complete.

[The National Competition main event has begun.]

A festival for people worldwide.

The first starting line Shin Hyeok reached after running relentlessly since his regression.

Shin Hyeok stepped onto it.

There are four types of games held in the National Competition.

Battle Royale.

Cargo Transport.

Conquest Battle.

Tournament.

The game held on the first day was Battle Royale, as seen in the opening match.

And Battle Royale was literally a place of shock, terror, and chaos where elites from each country gathered.

Since each one was composed of players positioned at the very top of Diamond tier, the powers they unleashed were all incredibly strong.

Battle Royale was where even such players would fall one by one.

A place where hundreds of Diamond tier players could pop out and snipe from anywhere at any time.

“Let’s go.”

“Let’s do it.”

“…Tsk.”

Right into that place stepped Shin Hyeok and the Korean National Team.

The composed Shin Hyeok, Geom-wang calmly tapping his sword sheath with his finger, and Yeom-wang clicking his tongue as if he didn’t like standing together with them.

But since all of them were a team for now, this fact remained unchanged, so they entered the Battle Royale together with the rest of the National Team members following them.

It was the official start of the National Competition.

Battle Royale assigns 4 people each to a total of 3 teams.

In other words, a total of 12 people from one country participate.

In that regard, belonging to a team inevitably means forming a standard composition.

A dealer, tank, buffer, and one remaining class.

Shin Hyeok’s team was formed appropriately from there.

“Vice-Captain, Mujeonggeum senior, and Kim Yuna senior. Please take care of me.”

“Haha, we should be the ones asking for your care.”

“Please take care of me, Captain.”

“Let’s fight!”

The Vice-Captain and Mujeonggeum who had fought at the end during the national team selection, and Kim Yuna from the priest class were Shin Hyeok’s members.

This team was the best among the currently available national team members.

Since Shin Hyeok was evaluated as weaker than Geom-wang and Yeom-wang, it couldn’t be helped.

Of course, things were different now, but no one knew that, and since the team assignments were decided when he sparred with Yeom-wang, there was no need to change them.

After finishing light greetings.

Shin Hyeok’s squad team moved quickly and cleared the surrounding buildings.

[Shin-hyeok Choi -> Murata Ryo]

[Shin-hyeok Choi -> Shimada Sakura]

“Clear, the remaining two are running away.”

“Phew, nothing for me to do.”

“I’ll check inside.”

Even though it was a huge map with hundreds of players scattered about, combat immediately followed, but there were no major problems.

It was a Japanese team, but since it wasn’t a team with king-level players, they could be dealt with without much difficulty.

When the situation became difficult, the remaining two fled, but they didn’t bother chasing them.

In the early stages when 4-person squad teams were swarming, a squad team with only 2 members left was just easy prey.

Even if Shin Hyeok’s team didn’t catch them, the hyenas scattered around would take care of them.

After completely clearing one suitable building, they built defensive positions around it.

The National Competition is slightly different from the Dimension Arena, which is played as individual matches.

In individual matches, you run around various buildings farming supplies, but when combined into squad teams like this, it’s better to hole up in one place and hold out rather than moving around multiple locations.

So they came into the game loaded with supplies to build defensive positions.

After quickly turning the building into an excellent forward base with those supplies.

“How’s the safe zone circle?”

“Not bad. We can at least catch our breath until the next circle.”

“Good. Then Mujeonggeum senior and I will go around the area farming.”

“I’ll leave it to you.”

Shin Hyeok left the base together with Mujeonggeum.

In Battle Royale, items that could only be obtained in Battle Royale were scattered everywhere, so farming these was also an important point.

This kind of work is usually handled by those who are quick on their feet and can easily escape if needed.

In other words, the versatile Shin Hyeok or Mujeonggeum, who was agile like an excellent swordsman, were perfect for it.

Of course, leaving behind the Vice-Captain, a tank lacking in combat power, and Kim Yuna, a priest even worse than him, and moving around could potentially become a threat where the main base might be raided while they were away—

“Muscal, Tarkan. I’m counting on you.”

—We receive your command.

“Leave it to me.”

Shin Hyeok had reliable subordinates.

With those two, most squad teams wouldn’t even be able to sink their teeth into the forward base.

Having completed preparations for the main base’s defense, Shin Hyeok took Mujeonggeum and began ruthlessly stirring up the surroundings.

—You damn bastards, get lost!

—Kraaaak! Boss! Another team is coming from over there!

—…Fuck, this place is done for. Abandon it and run!

—Wh-what about the supplies…

—Where’s the time to gather those!

Such chaos soon became a disaster for other squad teams positioned in surrounding buildings or facilities.

Shin Hyeok’s rampage was beyond what could be described as artistic.

Shin Hyeok never entered enemy territory.

He circled around causing disturbances, and based on those disturbances, he gathered other squad teams that hadn’t yet established positions.

Waiting for them to fight each other, he moved to another location and caused more discord.

“…Is this really okay?”

“There’s nothing wrong with it. Instead, if we get caught, we’ll see hell, but if we don’t get caught, it’s no different from there being no problem.”

“…Right, you’re the captain, so I just need to follow.”

A troubled expression spread across Mujeonggeum’s face, who had thought he would just swing his sword at the skilled professional’s rampage.

But for Shin Hyeok, this was natural.

‘To survive as a player from a minor dimension in the Integrated League, causing chaos is essential.’

Chaos was not a choice but a necessity for survival.

Especially since the number of players from Shin Hyeok’s dimension playing in the Integrated League was small, and among them, players reaching Shin Hyeok’s level were even fewer.

In other words, in a game where hundreds of people are thrown in, Shin Hyeok was alone.

For such a Shin Hyeok to survive, he had to create discord among other players and cause chaos to create opportunities.

“Wow, look at all these supplies. The storage is completely full. Let’s sweep this up first.”

“Hmm… Certainly. With this much, even if we move the base looking at the safe zone circle, we won’t have to worry about supplies.”

In that chaos, Shin Hyeok only took definite gains.

He would kill if he could, but he didn’t bother chasing.

Kill points were sweet, but the highest score was still being the final survivor.

Therefore, after gathering plenty of supplies needed for future survival, he gradually left the increasingly noisy battlefield.

“Let’s return now.”

“Let’s do that.”

The surrounding buildings and facilities had many supplies.

Especially since those who had tried to hold out using this place as a base had stockpiled supplies, just those alone were more than enough to fill their stomachs, so Shin Hyeok declared his return without regret.

Because players swept up in anger over the chaos Shin Hyeok had caused might soon call other squad teams from the same country.

Of course, he didn’t think they would lose, but one must always prepare for contingencies.

Above all, the biggest problem was—

Bang bang bang! Kwaaaaang!

“…It’s an attack.”

“Oh no.”

It was at Shin Hyeok’s main base, not where Shin Hyeok was.

Explosions and blasts erupting like crazy.

If it were directed at others, he would just be happy calling it fireworks, but when your own house is burning, that’s when it becomes UFC.

Quickly returning to the main base, the outline of the enemies finally began to take shape.

“It’s the Japanese team. It seems the survivors from the team we caught brought another squad team.”

“Japan? If it’s Japan… Oh no.”

The Japanese team.

It seemed the two Japanese players Shin Hyeok had killed and chased away before establishing the base had finally contacted and brought their other squad team.

And at the mention of Japan, Mujeonggeum’s face hardened.

The reason was simple.

“Shin-hyeok Choi! Come out and receive my sword!”

“Keisuke Muta.”

A man shouting from far in front of the main base with a Japanese sword at his waist.

Because Keisuke Muta existed in Japan.

Actually, there were often those who didn’t know the name Keisuke Muta, but there was no one who didn’t know the title that referred to him.

“Kwaewang.”

Kwaewang.

A member of the Five Kings and a samurai who wields the ultimate swift sword.

He was the first foreign king-class Player that Shin Hyeok had encountered.
