Chapter 142

-I’ll drop into a crowded area alone and thin out the competition as much as possible, so everyone else can farm in the meantime.
-What if you die, Seo Jun?
-That’s unavoidable. Still, don’t worry too much. I really do know the game inside out.
-Someone who knows the game is about to execute both Lyupo Meta and Gandhi Meta simultaneously…

Seo Jun had spoken so confidently about executing the Lyupo Meta and Gandhi Meta at the same time.
Rumi had asked for the reason. What advantage was there in doing both simultaneously?
Seo Jun answered that it was simply more fun.
And he added that if he alone didn’t die, this approach would be far more stable for securing the game. But looking at it any way you could, the latter seemed hastily improvised.
Of course, not dying meant that any meta would be stable.
Rumi was still awkward with Seo Jun, so she couldn’t point out such things.
So she privately pleaded with Alpaca and Wind Sword, but strangely, Alpaca was in a “it’s fine either way” stance, while Wind Sword went even further, bordering on blind faith.

-Just like you said, we’re going to be completely favored, Seo Jun!

‘Whatever happens, happens.’
Rumi made a mental note to try harder to get closer to them, thinking exactly that.
Still, she had explained all the basic things. And hadn’t she herself said not to worry too much?
Though she had doubts, given that before the Class E players’ match he’d said they just needed to catch enemies—which made trusting him difficult.
And inside the plane.
The three team members besides Seo Jun had decided to skydive last among the twenty-four participants.
Their objective was to go to unpopulated areas and farm items.
The calculation was that even on a shrinking map, with so few people, anywhere that wasn’t a popular spot would be peaceful.
And Seo Jun had decided to head to a place where people would jump in large numbers.
So Seo Jun jumped first.
“I’m going. See you later.”
“Yes. Don’t forget to control your speed! If you’re not sure how to control it, just fall horizontally! If you don’t know, use the radio!”
“Got it.”
Seo Jun descended vertically. He gradually became a point in the distance.
But you could see that he was rapidly closing the distance with the other players who had jumped earlier.
“Wow, he’s incredibly fast.”
“Looks like Seo Jun will pass them soon!”
Rumi asked after hearing her teammates’ conversation.
“Isn’t the parachute not going to open? Aren’t you worried?”
“Why would we worry about Class A Seo Jun?”
Alpaca replied.
“Ah!”
Rumi accepted that.
Now that she thought about it, that was true.
She acknowledged it coolly.
She’d been thinking about it wrong all along!
‘He must have a way to control his speed even when falling first!’
And then.
From far away, she thought she heard a bang sound.
It was as if a point in the sky—someone—had failed to deploy their parachute and crashed straight into the ground.
‘Must be my imagination.’
But Rumi shook her head and brushed it aside, speaking cheerfully.
“Let’s get ready to jump too! We’re about to leave the Safety Zone.”
How dare she doubt a Class A player! Rumi swiftly banished the devil lurking in her heart.

* * *

“Ah! He’s defeated Dokkaebi!”
Arin shouted, continuing immediately.
“His bare-handed combat skills are absolutely insane!”
The broadcast camera, the observer, had been tracking Seo Jun. From the start until now.
“We should check other teams at various key spots, but I can say with absolute certainty that the fight we just witnessed was worth every frame the camera captured!”
And Bangju spoke excitedly as well.

-lol
-He’s just demolishing bare-handed combat fights ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Is this a semi-professional boxer? Is this a semi-professional boxer? Is this a semi-professional boxer? Is this a semi-professional boxer?
-Dokkaebi’s mental state is completely shattered
-How is he thrashing him like this…
-This guy fights really well.

“Seo Jun caught everyone’s attention with an impossible landing right from the start, and then immediately provoked and fought, making it impossible for the camera to look anywhere else.”
As Bangju got excited, Arin seemed to catch the same mood.
“Right, Bangju. How could we look anywhere else! He’s giving us such good material!”
The rule that parachutes don’t open above a certain speed is the game company’s way of making fall speed control part of the skill category.
“Arriving first on the ground is quite an advantage. But if everyone just falls vertically and opens their parachute, what’s the point, right?”
The intent is to control falling speed as close to the terminal velocity as possible.
“But ah, this doesn’t sit well with him, does it? How dare the game company try to hold back someone like me? So Seo Jun dropped straight down.”
“Truly, the man of 995 points!”
“And then he won a bare-handed fight without taking a single hit!”

-Is this commentary?
-Is this casting?
-Lol what
-Rio’s always like this!

Their teamwork was excellent.
The other commentators looked uncomfortable. Wasn’t this too biased toward one side, no matter how entertaining?
“Haha. Now we should explain the situation of other teams, but it looks like the fight still isn’t over.”
“Right. Looking around the building, Dokkaebi’s teammates are rushing over! To wake him from unconsciousness! One of them is already entering the building and heading up!”
The positions of team members can be checked at any time through the minimap. As long as they’re not unconscious, they can communicate through the radio.
Bang!
“Seo Jun killed one as soon as he saw the reinforcements! Immediately! He’s like a hunter!”

* * *

-Why is it so cool how he takes out two and casually climbs up ㄷㄷㄷ
-He just waits and shoots as soon as they appear. Every shot is a headshot ㄷㄷㄷㄷ
-Even with a gun hero in the Major League, he’d be good. His aim is insane
-But he’s a swordsman, what are you talking about
-Are you a Kaell fan?

Bang!
The moment Seo Jun killed Dokkaebi, the screen rapidly switched.
“Wow! Because of Dokkaebi, an entire team is annihilated by Seo Jun! Now let’s quickly check the status of other teams, shall we?”
Since it was official broadcast, they needed to show all the streamers.
Arin, who had been distracted by Seo Jun’s fight, refocused, and Taeyang began his commentary.
“Except for the Camp, everyone is farming peacefully. First, I can see Seo Jun’s teammates who went to the outskirts of the Safety Zone.”
The observer looking down at the terrain from above zoomed in on one location.
Seo Jun’s team members were busy farming. Since they hadn’t gone to a popular spot, they had to search more buildings.
“Considering that the other five teams went to popular spots, this is a really good choice.”
“It’s because there’s no competition, right?”
This time, the observer moved to the largest building nearby.
“Right, your assessment is correct. Only one team went to the Hospital. So this is the best situation. They get to monopolize the popular spot comfortably.”
The Hospital is currently one of three popular spots within the Safety Zone.
Items, especially consumables, spawn there most frequently and in the greatest variety.
“And now we can see the Airfield. Just like the Camp, two teams are there. But no fight has broken out yet.”
The Airfield is also a popular spot.
Items spawn generously, and light aircraft can be used right away.
With the Camp included, five squads have dropped at a total of three spots.
“Now, for those viewers unfamiliar with our Ground Zero, let me clarify one important thing.”
“Oh!”
“In Ground Zero, weapons other than handguns receive special treatment and are extremely difficult to obtain. In regular fields, they’re essentially impossible to find.”
“You mean submachine guns, shotguns, and sniper rifles, right?”
“Yes, exactly. Such weapons have powerful destructive force. Having one puts you several steps closer to victory.”
“Where can you get them?”
“First, there’s Air Supply. They fall from the sky at random locations. And the second method is going to the Underground Bunker connected to these three spots and opening the Secret Room!”
The biggest feature of this map is the massive Underground Bunker.
The town and military facilities formed around the Oasis in the middle of the Great Desert were connected underground.
And the Underground Bunker exists within, with the Safety Zone currently generated centered on the location of the Secret Room.
“The storm range is intentional. Even if the Safety Zone shrinks once more as time passes, at that scale the Secret Room must be included within it, at the center.”
In short, target the Secret Room.
“Everyone is preparing to descend underground. Because they’ll have to fight. And that preparation includes…”
The observer instantly teleports back to Seo Jun. Then floats upward, showing the entire Camp.
“…naturally, eliminating potential threats from behind as well. The moment the hunter becomes the hunted.”
Squad Leader Rain’s team from the Camp was approaching the building where Seo Jun was.

* * *

Seo Jun created an Inventory window in mid-air, reached out, put the Frying Pan away, and pulled out a Bandage.
‘Too bad there’s no First Aid Kit.’
He wrapped the bandage around his arm—it recovered a tiny amount of health. Then he tore it with his teeth.
But since his health didn’t recover, he checked the chat.
Should he wrap it somewhere else?

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Please ㅋㅋㅋ Every time you show your hand like this we’re embarrassed, Bangju…
-You were so cool just a second ago ㅋㅋㅋ
-I hope the commentators didn’t see this!!!
-Ah ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ You just press use while it’s in the Inventory ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Ah.
The moment Seo Jun saw the chat, he realized what he’d just done, rapidly assembled an excuse, and spoke shamelessly.
“I was trying to make you all laugh. I know everything.”
If they were going to make you use it that way, why did they bother implementing bandages properly—he only complained about that internally.
Since there were only two bandages, his health recovered only a minuscule amount.
“Hmm. At this rate, one hit will still kill me.”
It’s a bit critical. No other healing items in the building or among Dokkaebi’s teammates’ bodies.
Slowly.
‘Considering the time, they should be arriving soon or already on their way.’
Seo Jun walked toward the edge of the rooftop. It was a fairly large three-story building, but there was no railing.
As expected.
There were two people in front.
Bang!
Seo Jun immediately picked up the loaded gun and fired at one of the people approaching the building.
Then he retreated slightly.

[Seo Jun –> Larva]

-Another headshot ㄷㄷㄷ
-He shoots the moment he sees them. What are those reflexes!
-Isn’t that a disadvantage for them?
-So calm lol

“It was above! Just get into the building quickly!”
It seemed like they’d been trying to enter the building with minimal noise.
But wasn’t it obvious that Seo Jun wouldn’t be left alone and that they would come this way?
‘I should thin them out as much as possible to make it easier.’
Seo Jun didn’t walk forward again. They’d be alert. Instead, he moved to the side.
To check if there was another person.
‘There is.’
In a brief moment, as someone rushed toward the building, his arm followed the person’s head, and so did the gun barrel.
Bang!
He pulled the trigger. The good thing about a rooftop is the open view.

[Seo Jun –> Keyboard_is_good]

-Seriously, is his aim insane!
-Is he actually Special Forces? Mafia? What are you, really!
-He uses guns better than swords, huh ㄷㄷ

He stumbled down with a thud.
“Another headshot? What? Does he have a sniper rifle or something?”
“Only two left, and, haha, we’re done for.”
“He’s a pretty good shot, isn’t he? But it’s okay, Rain. Thanks to farming the Level 3 Helmet and Level 3 Vest, we can manage even with just two of us underground.”
Hmm.
Seo Jun heard the conversation of those entering the building. Since there was no other source of noise, he heard it clearly.
“I’ll take the lead. Let’s finish this quickly.”
“Yes, Bull.”

-Level 3 Helmet? Seems bad
-They have full farming though? ㄷㄷ
-The Camp had good spawn luck this round
-No, that’s bad luck. A Level 3 Helmet spawned so another helmet can’t spawn at this spot. If that didn’t happen, they wouldn’t both get eliminated by Bangju at once
-Anyway Bangju seems doomed? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The Level 3 Helmet that luckily spawns at the Camp and a few fields is the highest defense, excluding the Level 4 Helmet that can be found in supply drops and the Secret Room.
The Vest is the same.
Were they Class A players too?
They seemed to be top-tier users.
‘This isn’t just critical—it’s very critical.’
Right now, this situation is especially difficult for Seo Jun. If he can’t kill in one shot, he dies.
And not only is there a helmet preventing one-shot kills, it’s Level 3?
‘I don’t know exact numbers, but I’ll have to land multiple shots.’
Seo Jun fired the gun into the air, then jumped off the rooftop.
Bang!
He masked the sound of his descent with the gunshot.
His health was reduced to the limit.
But that was no different from before.

-Farm the dead bodies
-There might be a First Aid Kit

He didn’t respond. He couldn’t afford any stray noise.
Seo Jun immediately entered the building.
If he farmed bodies outside and the enemy looked out of the building for even a moment, it’d be over.
Boom!
An explosion sounded from above.
The enemies were entering while throwing grenades.
Seo Jun moved to match that sound.
And then.
He climbed to the second floor and turned the corner of the hallway—the enemies appeared.
Bang!
“Huh?”
As he shot Rain in the back of the head, who was following behind Bull, Bull immediately turned around.

[Seo Jun –> Butterfly_Effect]

But Seo Jun was already hidden behind the wall.

-Kyaa! Three down!
-Does this guy’s hand ever shake?
-Seriously, isn’t the National Intelligence Service trying to recruit him? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-But what’s Bangju going to do now? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Even if he hadn’t fired many shots, 100% accuracy, 100% headshot ratio—those are impressive numbers.
And Seo Jun’s repositioning was clean.
But that was the limit.

-Bull’s coming
-Full-farmed Class A is a bit scary lol
-Bangju’s slowly retreating back?
-Running to the third floor ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-This is rough ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The viewers predicted Seo Jun’s defeat. The gear gap was too large. His health was hopeless.
And Seo Jun thought the same. So he climbed upward.
‘Should I try?’
He had something in mind. But he wasn’t sure if it would work.

-lol Even if he smacks him with that, a helmet prevents stuns~
-Bangju’s desperate for a sword in this crisis ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ But he doesn’t have one?
-Sword Saint (holding a Frying Pan)

Seo Jun held a gun in his left hand and grabbed the Frying Pan in his right, then spoke.
“Haha! Don’t you all worry too much.”
He was speaking to the viewers, but really meant it for the enemy to hear.
“Were you there?”
Bull gripped the handgun with both hands, ready to aim precisely at any moment, and approached slowly.
And at a small distance, he stopped with the gun barrel pointed at the wall.
‘What’s he trying to do here.’
It was intuition. Bull knew Seo Jun was preparing something.
But it didn’t matter. Once he emerged, no matter what he did, Bull would just shoot.
A Level 3 helmet and vest were invincible—he could take hits.
And the enemy appeared.
‘Now!’
Bang!
Bull smiled with satisfaction. He fired the bullet at the legs—impossible to defend against and difficult to dodge.
Anywhere it hit would be fatal given the health pool anyway.
‘It’s over.’
But right after.
Clang!
A strange sound echoed through the hallway.
