Chapter 28
One must become familiar with tools.
That was Hae-rang’s plan.
There were several reasons for choosing Full Phoenix in ‘Iron Fist’.
A martial arts style similar to his previous life.
A reliable one-hit kill blow.
And one more thing,
‘It was easy to adapt to since it’s bare-handed.’
In Iron Fist, each character has various weapons.
Not only long swords, but some pull out bazookas, and there are even characters whose entire body is a weapon.
Hae-rang had no intention of using such tools right away.
Even basic attacks like Heavy Punch and Light Punch needed time to use like his own body,
how much more so for weapons?
Now that ‘Break the Joint’ was settled for the time being,
Hae-rang was thinking of seriously trying to handle tools.
“Whew.”
Standing in Primordial Village, Hae-rang steadied his breathing.
From now on, whatever game he played, he would be holding tools or weapons more often than going bare-handed.
[There’s nothing like the jar game for damn annoying tools. Fuck. Just thinking about it makes my hands and feet tremble.]
That was Joint’s advice.
If he could handle the hammer currently in his hands like his own,
he would be able to easily adapt to any tool in capsule games.
“This is my token of gratitude for the viewers who stayed up all night watching.”
-????
-What are you talking about? You just cleared the game.
-Attention-seeking Heavenly Demon! You’ve been going back and forth all night? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-No way, you want to play this cursed game one more time? That’s hard for us too ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-This is straight up madness lololololol
-Is there a streamer who shouts “one more time” right after clearing the jar game?
“Don’t worry. One minute will be enough.”
After answering like that, Hae-rang closed his eyes.
And he drew out his treasured sword from his previous life, something only possible in ‘this world’.
Kiiiiing!
Heavenly Demon Divine Art.
When he fully opened the Heavenly Demon Divine Art that had reached Second Level, hot heat swept through his entire body.
The temperature of the real-world capsule would probably be similar.
If he continued the game in this state for long, overclock might occur.
However,
‘No problem.’
The time he declared to the viewers was 1 minute.
Since he bought a like-new used capsule, it could endure that much time.
He had already experienced this in ‘Break the Joint’.
Squeeze.
Energy that flowed from his dantian through his arms to his palms.
That energy soon settled throughout the entire hammer in his hand.
Like sword energy gathering on a blade, a bluish haze rose from the tip of the hammer.
‘This too would only be visible to my eyes.’
With this, preparation was complete.
A refreshing voice flowed from Hae-rang’s mouth.
“Challenge.”
Ding!
With a cheerful signal sound, a small screen was created in the upper right corner.
A count that could check how much time had passed in seconds.
At the same time, Hae-rang forcefully drove the hammer in his hand into the ground.
Crack!
Using the hammer that was driven deeper than usual as a support, he swung his arm vigorously.
It wasn’t hammering, but like a giant dragon’s claws tearing through space.
Whoosh!
He easily grasped the center of gravity of the hammer, famous for its extreme difficulty.
The more difficult something is, the more certain the reward.
Hae-rang flew forward at an unprecedented, dramatic speed.
-??????????
-Crazy, isn’t that a bug?
-He jumps that far?
-LMAOOOOOOOOO so fucking funny
-Like there’s a rocket booster under the jar!
-Stop right there. Hey Gwanjong. Check under that jar for cheats.
-What? Why did it become so different!
The chat window that had been quiet like dawn was instantly activated.
The ‘jar game’ that Hae-rang had shown so far was no different from other streamers.
When he seemed to climb a little, he would slip, struggle with controls, and sometimes repeat frustration.
The broadcast had nothing different except that the clear time was a little faster than other streamers.
But Hae-rang’s current appearance was truly at the level of heaven and earth turning upside down.
Kwak! Kwak!
Using the heaviest part at the end of the hammer to grip the edge of a small rock.
A section where even the tiniest error would result in smashing one’s head.
But Hae-rang’s hammer precisely hit that section as if it had a magnet attached.
‘Next.’
Hae-rang instantly passed through a section that would take dozens of minutes, or even hours, to navigate.
He raised his head and aimed for the next section.
Pabat!
Hae-rang leaped while alternately gripping the structures installed on the left and right.
Two consecutive running starts followed, and the jar Hae-rang was riding shot up like a rocket.
-Huh?
-Wait! That’s not the right route, is it?
-Why are you going that way? There’s no path there!
-Hold on. But if you go over like this…
The chat window’s contents caught his eye, but Hae-rang didn’t stop.
These were grateful beings who never spared advice and encouragement.
But this time, they were wrong.
Through practice, Hae-rang had explored every unnecessary nook and cranny, and soon created his own shortcut.
“Hup!”
Buwoong!
The hammer in Hae-rang’s hand danced.
The hammer that was difficult to handle and damn heavy, making it an object of resentment for streamers.
But in this moment, it became its master’s loyal famous sword.
Tak!
Soon his jar came to a stop in front of a purple desperate structure.
He had broken through Phase 1, called the Wall of Wailing, in one swift move.
-Wow! Damn, this quickly?
-This is a hack, right? This is a hack, right? This is a hack, right? This is a hack, right? This is a hack, right?
-Gwanjong Cheonma’s hammer… I couldn’t see it!
-Amazing lol going this way completely skips Hell Valley
-What about the streamers who suffered like hell in Hell Valley for years lololol
-For real, turned them into dogs chasing chickens in an instant lol
A gap that rose like a valley between the rocks.
There was a section called Hell Valley because it was damn difficult to conquer.
Normally, one would have to pass the initial structures and then conquer this Hell Valley.
But Hae-rang didn’t need to do that.
Using the shortcut he discovered, he could pass entirely over the large rock where Hell Valley was located.
-How much time has passed now?
-15 seconds! Damn lololololololol
-A section others suffer through for hours in just 15 seconds lol
-Is he a god? Is he Gwanjong Cheonma? Is he a god? Is he Gwanjong Cheonma? Is he a god? Is he Gwanjong Cheonma? Is he a god? Is he Gwanjong Cheonma? Is he a god? Is he Gwanjong Cheonma?
-Phase 2 in the blink of an eye. What did I just see?
-Where’s the blink of an eye? Use that time to watch Gwanjong Cheonma one more time!
Chat poured in at the miracle Hae-rang had shown.
He wanted to read each one and greet them, but there wasn’t much time.
Hae-rang climbed to the second phase and pushed his hammer to the ground as if throwing a ‘Bung-ta’.
“Ooh-ah!”
A familiar battle cry burst out.
At the same time, the jar Hae-rang was riding shot straight up.
-What the hell is that
-Gwanjong-nim’s Sergeant Jump is pretty good, huh?
-How many sergeant jumps?
-That’s originally a section where you have to spin around and grind like hell lololol
-The word ‘revolutionary’ isn’t enough. Where in the world is there such a strategy route?
-This game has been out for years and a new route just appeared;;
5 years.
5 years had passed since the crude PC game was changed to a capsule game.
Maintaining the same concept from when it was a 2D game, even the modeled backgrounds were utterly shabby.
Nevertheless, there was only one reason it was talked about by many people.
The damn insane difficulty.
But a newly appeared streamer mocked that difficulty with his whole body.
Kwak! Kwak!
-Wow! Phase 3!
-35 seconds! Lololololol He’s really going to clear it in under a minute?
-What’s the best record so far?
-2 minutes 30 seconds
-That was also a record set by a programmed dummy
-So you’re saying he’s faster than a virtual character with pre-inputted data?
-If he just clears this part, it’s complete!
It felt like Hae-rang’s movements were faster than the flow of time.
Every time the hammer stepped on a structure, it seemed like shockwaves occurred around it.
“Whew.”
Hae-rang, who had frantically swung his hammer, briefly caught his breath.
Considering the remaining time, every second was precious.
But he needed to organize his body and mind.
This final section of Phase 3 was the most important section for Hae-rang.
-It’s here! The Gap of Wailing!
-Ah shit, just looking at the screen makes my late-night snack come back up
-Hahahaha PTSD itself!
-‘That section’ that supposedly destroyed countless jar users’ keyboards!
When the Gap of Wailing appeared, the viewers acted like people whose seizure button had been pressed.
Perhaps it was a natural reaction.
This Gap of Wailing was the highest difficulty section of the ‘jar game’.
Moreover, below the Gap of Wailing was nothing but empty space.
If you fall, you drop straight down to Primordial Village.
If you mess up here, the carefully built tower you’ve accumulated so far would all come crashing down.
-What are you going to do? Gwanjong Cheonma!
-The standard way is to hook onto that protruding part below and climb up bit by bit
-But then you can’t clear it within 1 minute, right?
-You can’t clear it, it’s a physically impossible course
-You can’t even jump over here! It’s a structure with a cave in the middle of a cliff.
-For real lol unless the jar flies by itself
Before the chat could even finish, Hae-rang launched his hammer.
Twang!
For a brief moment, the chat window was flooded with question marks.
-????
-??????
-??
-???????????
Hae-rang descending diagonally downward.
But from any angle, it was impossible to enter between the Gap of Wailing in the middle of the cliff.
The developer had originally made this place for users to climb up from below by going around.
It wasn’t for nothing that users went around saying ‘Buying the address of the noble person who made the jar game’.
-It’s over
-GG
-It was a good match.
-Nooooooooooooo!
-Ah~~~~~~~ it’s ruined
-I want to go back~~~~
Negative reactions poured out in the chat window.
The jar that had been moving diagonally began to descend vertically under the influence of gravity.
A space that seemed reachable if you could stretch out your hand.
But striking the hammer or miraculously adjusting the angle was impossible.
That’s why it’s called the Gap of Wailing.
Kiiiiing!
At that moment, a strange ringing sound occurred in the jar game world.
The source of that ringing was,
the center of Hae-rang’s body as he fell toward the ground.
“Hap!”
While descending, Hae-rang let out a clear battle cry.
Then he spun his hammer in a large circle.
Whooom!
The hammer protruding from the jar rotated like a windmill.
It felt as if space-time had changed and a clock’s second hand was spinning thousands of times faster.
Then a miraculous thing happened.
Whoosh!
The hammer spinning fast enough to tear through the air.
Though it couldn’t actually cut through the air, it was sufficient to ‘change’ the surrounding atmosphere.
Exactly the effect Hae-rang had been aiming for.
For a moment, he overcame gravity.
In his previous life, this movement was expressed in four characters.
‘Void Step .’
A martial technique created by swinging the hammer, not using feet.
This was a skill he had never shown even in his previous life when he reigned as the Heavenly Demon.
Cutting through the air in the void to gain propulsion and create a momentary leap.
The distance climbed was only about one step,
but the effect was sufficient.
Thud!
Hae-rang, who survived in a section where he should have naturally fallen,
finally landed the jar he was riding into the cave.
He had placed the location called the Gap of Wailing beneath his feet.
-…?
-Huh
-What;;
-What did he just do?
-I clearly saw it with my eyes but I don’t understand
-Can someone explain this to me?
-Is there an invisible structure in that space?
-The invisible structure wailed.. thud thud thud..
-There’s space behind the void!
The viewers were so shocked that they were even spouting nonsensical jokes left and right.
Pababapark!
Cutting through the great upheaval created by Void Step,
Hae-rang finally broke through the finish line.
【Pang pang pang!】
【You`re an absolute genius!】
Pouring fanfare sounds and the developer’s congratulatory voice.
But no one was focusing on that.
Hae-rang, who had passed through the finish line via an unprecedented route.
Everyone’s gaze was focused on the screen at the far right.
【57.15 seconds】
Hae-rang smiled brilliantly as he raised the hammer in his hand high.
Meanwhile, the viewers couldn’t even type properly with their trembling fingers.
-This is insane
