The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 1 Episode 84
30. Power Suit Play (1)
The next day.
10 AM.
Three videos were uploaded to Almond’s Ollytube channel.
[Battle Rage EP.4 The Foolish Five Brothers]
[Battle Rage EP.5 Jansen!]
[Battle Rage EP.6 Yes. Almond has put on a power suit.]
News of the upload spread through the gaming community in an instant.
It was mentioned frequently not only in Kingchiman and Baera 31, which could be called his main communities, but also in communities covering other games.
It couldn’t be helped.
Currently, I was the only person who had matched Jeon-ja-pa’s record, and anyone who enjoyed games was bound to take interest in me at some point.
All of this was thanks to the viral success of the ‘Disassembly Analyzer’ livestream.
-That guy who matched Jeon-ja-pa’s record?
-Oh. There was an Ollytube channel?
-First premiere. Coming soon!
-Wow, he just uploaded this not long ago lol
-Less than a month and already this good damn lol
With all these people gathering, the first premiere had a viewership of 12,000.
If you thought 12,000 views on Ollytube was pathetic, you’d be right.
But having 12,000 people watching a first premiere was a completely different story.
It was like having customers lined up from the moment the store opened.
Especially the third video, ‘Yes. Almond has put on a power suit,’ was particularly popular.
It seemed like it might become another blockbuster video.
“Wait… how did I upload this?”
Juhyeok rubbed his eyes and asked himself.
[First premiere in 10 minutes]
I couldn’t believe the words displayed before my eyes.
I definitely drank heavily with him yesterday. My head was still pounding so badly that I couldn’t do anything right now.
How could I have made and uploaded a video?
“Besides, these are all from yesterday’s broadcast.”
All three uploaded videos were edited versions of yesterday’s promotion match broadcast.
Which meant they were videos I’d worked on the night before.
“Did I do it properly?”
At this point, I was worried I’d made something strange while drunk.
‘I need to check.’
The first premieres were scheduled sequentially at 10-minute intervals.
Right now, the first video’s premiere had just started.
[Currently premiering!]
* * *
[Battle Rage EP.4 Foolish Five Brothers]
The first video depicted the moment when Almond encountered the Foolish Five Brothers.
The footage begins as Almond confronts them in the Armory.
Whoosh.
A blade comes flying without warning, striking instantly.
From the start, it’s an intense sword combat scene.
Each time the blade flies, the camera repeatedly zooms in and out with perfect timing, creating an incredible sense of speed.
Afterward, Almond spots a sniper on the 2nd Floor wielding a bow.
Almond plants his sword into the wall and climbs upward. It looks like a scene straight out of a thriller film.
Finally, Almond reaches the top.
Crash!
He shatters the window and hurls his blade at the enemy.
The enemy’s shocked expression is captured in close-up as the blade pierces through simultaneously.
Thud!
The expression was directed like something out of a ridiculous horror film. It was a technique Seojia hadn’t seen in her videos before, but the effect was excellent.
-5:08 That Champion Goblin brat is legendary.
-5:09 That shocked expression is hilarious lmaooo
-5:08 Looks like a third-rate horror movie lololol
-5:09 The youngest of the Foolish Five Brothers lmaooo
Among the best comments, many mention this particular moment.
However, this scene wasn’t actually the climax of the video yet.
From 12:51, the arrow spam starts getting crazy
└For real, how does he even do that?
└No matter how much I practice, I can never pull that off. It’s crazy.
└Wait, is that even possible? lololol
The top-rated best comment in the video’s comment section points to that exact part.
As the video reaches that section, Almond’s insane firing rate is on full display.
Rat-a-tat-tat-bang!
The video plays at normal speed first, then slows down to show Almond’s detailed hand technique in close-up.
Then, boom!
The video resumes at normal speed, synchronized with the music.
Pow-pow-pow-bang!
The enemies moving in slow motion, the Foolish Five Brothers, all collapse at once.
‘…Wow.’
Even Juhyeok, who already knew everything, found his jaw dropping involuntarily.
The first video ended there.
The second video, ‘Jansen,’ was essentially a comedy piece.
Jansen in a power suit looked like a muscular pervert, and every time he delivered his lines.
[Mom! When I grow up, I want to be Almond!!!]
Text of enormous size erupted across the screen in bursts.
Almond’s panicked figure fleeing followed suit.
-Lmaooooo
-Why is Almond so cute lol
-Jansen!
-Crazy lol this guy’s insane
-That’s actually horrifying lol
-Jansen! This line never actually appears in the game but why does it fit so well lol
└For real lol there’s literally no scene where Jansen is mentioned lol
└Wow. I only realized it after reading this comment lol there’s actually no such segment.
└Lmaooo
Pfft.
Even though I’d already watched this video before, I burst out laughing.
The second video was quite entertaining as well.
But the best entertainment was surely saved for last.
[Now premiering!]
Now that some time had passed, I carefully clicked on that video that was currently premiering.
[Battle Rage EP.6 Yes. Almond has equipped the Power Suit.]
* * *
Almond walks across a desolate desert.
Not a soul in sight.
The area was already saturated with toxic gas.
Yet Almond walks leisurely.
[The Blue Zone is shrinking!]
Even as the distant Blue Zone shrinks once more.
“I can handle this. Let me farm a bit more.”
He mutters to himself. Farming in this toxic gas—normally that would be madness.
-Ah lol with the Power Suit you can farm all day!!
-Still gotta be careful from the third shrink onwards or you take damage
-For real, victory’s locked in at this point.
It was all thanks to the Power Suit.
The Power Suit’s gas mask function was still intact. It breaks down with prolonged use, but it holds up until the third shrink.
Almond was maximizing this advantage by farming until the very last moment.
[The Blue Zone will begin shrinking in 30 seconds!]
Only when the third Blue Zone shrink warning appeared
did he stop farming.
His bag was packed full of countless medical supplies.
“Now it’s time to sweep them all away, right?”
Smirk.
A confident smile played at the corners of his mouth.
-Let’s goooooo!
-gggggg
-Slaughter them alllll!
-Wooooooh!
-Yeahhhhh!
-Oooomen!
“Let’s move!”
Whoosh—
As I pushed off with my feet, my feather-light body shot forward.
Whoooosh!
The wind roar that only came when riding a motorcycle assaulted my ears.
-Damn lolololol
-Switch to first-person view bro that’d be insane
-Lmaooo
I want to wear a power suit too ㅠㅠ
-It’s like a completely different game now?
-Like that ninja running game, but first-person lololol
-Ninja running lololol
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Running, drinking energy drinks.
I just kept repeating this cycle.
By the time I’d grown accustomed to the speed.
Through the coarse sand dust that obscured my vision.
‘The Blue Zone!’
I could see the shape of the Blue Zone.
A translucent blue dome enveloped an entire region.
Inside there were still…
[47/100]
47 survivors, no doubt.
Swish.
I had already loaded all my arrows into the fingers of my right hand.
Crackle!
Static electricity flickered past in an instant as I entered the Blue Zone.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat!!!
Bang! Whoosh!
The moment I entered, gunfire erupted from all directions.
I could definitely feel this was an area where survivors were present.
‘Are they fighting?’
I followed the sound of gunfire and ran.
“There.”
With that final murmur, I drew back my bow.
-Huh? That’s way too far.
-You’d need at least 8x magnification to shoot that distance.
-He’s actually going to shoot that?
-Crazy.
-Is that even possible with a recurve?!
A recurve bow, depending on the archer’s strength, could actually fly far further than a compound bow.
Grrrrgh…!
I utilized the superhuman strength of the Power Suit to pull the bowstring back with all my might.
Power surged through my abdomen and lower back, causing the blue light surrounding the suit to glow brilliantly.
TWANG!!
For a bow, it was quite a loud sound.
Whoooosh!
An extraordinary sonic crack followed.
The arrow flew in a shallow arc──
-What the hell!
-Damn!
-Wow!
-No way!
-Is he insane!!!!
CRACK!
It struck the barely visible head.
The opponent apparently didn’t have a ballistic helmet yet.
[Almond → New Chest Monster]
[Eliminated!]
[46/100]
It became a kill log.
* * *
“Huh!?”
The other player firing his gun noticed Almond’s presence.
“A power suit…!?”
It was clearly visible even from a distance. The fact that Almond wore a power suit.
He was about to flee. Normally, he should have run.
But the weapon was a bow.
‘Wait… isn’t this doable?’
If I kill him, I can get the power suit. If the weapon were Hero-grade or higher, I would’ve run, but the weapon is manageable.
If I just take him down, I’m first place.
He aimed his gun at Almond.
At this distance, the gun had an overwhelming advantage.
Click.
The sight slowly aligned with Almond’s blue silhouette.
Whoosh!
He vanished.
“?”
But he’d already pulled the trigger.
Bang!
‘Damn.’
A hissing sound pierced the air.
‘Where!?’
It came from an entirely different angle. The moment he turned his head.
What he saw was an arrowhead already flying toward his face.
Thud!
His ballistic helmet was pierced.
“Gack!”
The impact snapped his neck backward.
‘What… what kind of bow is this strong.’
He rose again like a tumbler doll, moving his gun. Or rather, he tried to.
‘Another one?’
The moment he lifted his head back up, another arrowhead appeared.
Unless two people shot simultaneously, there’s no way an arrow could arrive like this.
Thwack!
His ballistic helmet was pierced again.
His neck snapped backward once more.
“Ugh…!”
A Hero-grade ballistic helmet.
It held up to this point.
I can hold out until here.
Thwack!
But there was one more arrow.
“Insane!”
With those final words, his name was etched into the kill log.
[Almond → NeedsRiceFields]
[Eliminated!]
[45/100]
A triple shot.
Three arrows had flown in succession, all striking precisely through the head.
One hit, then before he could even regain his senses, two more came flying in rapid succession.
And from a distance so far the opponent could barely see me.
-Are you insane, Almond!! Are you insane, Almond!! Are you insane, Almond!! Are you insane, Almond!!
-Holy molly!
-How did all 3 shots land!?
-You tricked me! Almond! This is a bug! You tricked me! Almond! This is a bug! You tricked me! Almond! This is a bug! You tricked me! Almond! This is a bug!
-I’m… I’m losing it
-Lost it again. Take responsibility!
[Sniper Rifle donated 10,000 won!]
[What… what do I do now?]
[Underwear Factory donated 5,000 won.]
[Looks like I need to make more panties today!]
[Knew It Would Be Like This donated 20,000 won!]
[Saw it in the bathroom, total jackpot]
“Thanks for the donations. The Power Suit is turning out to be way better than I expected.”
That kind of triple shot would normally be impossible. Without the Power Suit that channeled force all the way to my fingertips, it couldn’t have been done.
‘This is pretty good in multiple ways.’
Unlike firearms, which had little to do with physical specs, the Power Suit truly showed its worth when using a bow.
[Blue Zone is shrinking!]
Another notification arrived.
I checked where the Blue Zone was moving to.
‘The plaza?’
It was heading toward the plaza. As always, the Blue Zone kept moving to places far from me. But with the Power Suit, distance was no longer a handicap.
Rather, I had a hunch that the ‘plaza’ might be set as the final stage of this match.
‘I’ve won.’
First place this round.
[Wanna Try? donated 20,000 won!]
[Mission) 20 kills from now]
At that moment, a mission appeared.
[20 kills from now]
[200,000 won]
With 45 players remaining, I needed to rack up 20 kills from this point forward.
In other words, I had to eliminate half of them.
It was an unreasonable request, no doubt about it.
-Just give it to me now lol
-Wow, another 200,000 won donation?
-lololol throwing money away!
-You’re gonna do it anyway, why even make it a mission lol
-???: Wow! Thank you for the 200,000 won!
-Notice how he doesn’t set missions per kill because he’s scared lol
“Wow! Thank you for the 200,000 won!”
Almond echoed the chat’s prediction word-for-word and dashed forward.
To rack up 20 kills, I had to move with relentless efficiency.
