Episode 357

Lloyd exhaled a deep sigh as he watched the crazed followers climbing up the floors, a sigh so heavy it seemed to shake the earth itself.
Well.
The earth would have been shaking regardless of whether Lloyd sighed or not.
That was meant metaphorically, of course.
Their foundation was being destroyed in real time.
“Shoot! Go on, shoot!”
“Hmm, this is pretty good? Maybe we can make use of the frying pan?”
“Let’s hurry! If you don’t work hard, who knows what’ll happen!”
“Never, ever touch him.”
A Forward Base had appeared near their base.
Near. Right in front of the Outer Wall.
Four teams’ Forward Bases had been established there.
But they couldn’t go destroy them.
Four teams were pouring in, after all.
Each one carrying at least a single frying pan.
“Hold the line! Madness!”
“Why us! Why!”
“Haha, hahahaha. Hahahaha.”
The leader laughed, unhinged.
From beside him. Was he supposed to be listening?
The enemies had pushed all the way to the front of the bedroom.
It was a standoff now.
When the enemies swung their frying pans, they got hit.
What even was this.
Why were they holding those things at all?
It was obvious.
“We’re not going to manage destroying that Forward Base, are we?”
“No.”
Lloyd gave a definitive answer to the laughing leader’s question.
It wasn’t a situation to speak hopeful words into.
Since the enemies had built their Forward Base right in front of the Outer Wall, if they pulled back now and took the escape route to destroy it, it would be quick enough.
The problem was that the source of all this was standing in front of the Forward Base, looking down at them and beckoning them forward.
“Give up! Hahaha! Let’s just give up! Damn, there’s no way around it.”
Lloyd recalled something as he listened to the leader’s bitter laugh.
A famous saying from Last.
It wasn’t an old maxim, but it would be cited many times in the future.
Lloyd muttered that saying blankly.
To survive in Last, remember two principles.
First principle: never, under any circumstances, touch him.
And the second principle.
“Never forget the First Principle…….”

* * *

-LMAOOOOO Lloyd just LMAO did he just say that?
-Two principles you must always remember LMAO
-This is ridiculous though
-Even I’d find it ridiculous LMAO why are all the attackers holding frying pans
-They’re probably all watching Bang Ju’s stream too

After hearing from Baek Do-yul that the enemies had surrendered, Seo Jun turned his steps from the Forward Base toward the enemy’s Main Base.
“Everyone? Please leave absolutely no trace of the Hunter Team in this world.”
A gentle voice and ruthless content.
The man who’d brought the jackhammer and started the work of erasing all evidence began their task.
Once the construction barrier device disappears, durability drops, so the work shouldn’t be too difficult.
He climbed the Stairway of the Main Base.
As he climbed, Seo Jun received greetings from looters and special forces clinging to the walls beside him.
They were all clapping.
Applause of respect directed at Seo Jun.
He wasn’t clinging to the concept so much as thinking it would just be fun to see this.
It was slightly ridiculous.

-LMAO Bang Ju’s noir vibe sometimes LMAO suits him so well
-Why? He’s almost never serious?
-But he’s serious when he fights. And he just looks cool
-It’s because he has a handsome face LMAO
-Is even this about appearance supremacy! Filthy world!

Unaware of the viewers prattling on, Seo Jun lowered his voice.
Then, standing right in front of the enemy’s bedroom door before Ryan, who was there last, he leaned in and whispered in his ear.
“Aren’t you going to attack? Even now?”
This was provocation—will you really not do anything?
If you kill him here in an undefended state, it’s war.
So is that what you’re afraid of?
That’s what Seo Jun asked.

-Kyaa!
-Lowering his voice and “Wanna join the Hunter Team?” performance!
-Is he reacting to the chat, or is he not?
-LMAO Provoking the mafia boss they reluctantly cooperated with just this once by lowering his voice Kyaa!

But Ryan was formidable.
He laughed without showing the slightest hint of discomfort.
“Hahaha! Let’s do it next time.”
He’d handled it flawlessly, making him a difficult opponent for Seo Jun as well.
Seo Jun decided to let it go and entered the bedroom.
“I apologize!”
The leader of the Hunter Team shouted loudly.
Public opinion says he’s lightweight and funny, but not actually a joke—that’s what people say about him.
“I rather suspect that the donation might have been a touch presumptuous on our part.”
Certainly, his attitude right now wasn’t one of submission.
He was bold.
“Who made the donation?”
Seo Jun didn’t need anything beyond that information.
He just needed to target that one person.
Now that they’d entered Tier 4, there were plenty of useful features.
For instance, a List that shows who’s connected to the server, or a Compass that points toward just one specific person.
Yes. How much would items like these actually help in a Raid?
But for those who’ve enjoyed everything the standard route has to offer, items like these are necessary.
“Tell me.”
If they told him, the Hunter Team would find peace.
Emotionally, it seemed like it would be Lloyd, the youngest, who was stirring up trouble, but what Seo Jun needed was a justification.
He was a Streamer, after all.
And the Hunter Team’s leader answered.
“That would be difficult for us.”
At that moment, Seo Jun caught a shift in Lloyd’s eyes.
It was definitely Lloyd who’d made the donation.
But if they’re going to resist like this.
“Are you going all the way?”
“Haha, shouldn’t you be cautious too, Seo Jun? We defended well, but the Slayer…….”
“They’ll be too busy recovering. Tier 3 has been fully under your control during all this time.”
Besides, even if they did recover, they wouldn’t have the capacity to look elsewhere.
“Well…… but the civilian teams!”
“Will they come?”
“They might, right?”
The Hunter Team’s leader was confident.
Seo Jun let out a quiet laugh and nodded.
“Fine. Let’s play this all the way.”

-What civilian teams are coming LMAOOOOOOOOO
-After watching the video of that guy cleaning everything up with a frying pan in 5 minutes, there’s no one crazy enough to charge in
-If all the remaining teams, or rather all teams except Ha Yun-ho’s team, pile on, can Bang Ju even win?
-Can he win? The frying pan’s already shown up, right?
-FR LMAO

“Alright, let’s demolish it all. And from now on, try your best to run.”
Seo Jun killed each unarmed Hunter Team member one by one in sequence.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
They accepted their deaths with composure, kneeling.
Whether they spawned somewhere hidden or randomly didn’t matter.
He’d find them all.
Seo Jun exited the bedroom.
“Yun-ho?”
Seo Jun had told the looters and special forces teams to leave, so they went, but Ha Yun-ho’s team had not.
“Yes?”
“Give me all the resources that came out of here.”
“Yes?”
“I’ve got another Tier 4 item I need to make.”
“…….”
“Quickly.”
“Yes!”

-Yun-ho… are you the hyung LMAO
-Wow he’s really a thug Bang Ju LMAOOOOO
-Why even do the Raid?
-But he brought two other teams LMAO

* * *

Since their base was already ransacked anyway, the Hunter Team went outside to rest.
Their thinking was that it didn’t matter whether they went in now or later.
Seo Jun first crafted the item to check the List, then gave them rest, saying he figured this would happen.
They’d all worked hard, after all.
After exiting the Capsule, Seo Jun learned that the community and Trabol were ablaze with one topic.
“Curious, everyone?”

-How could we not be?
-There’s no one to explain it but you, Bang Ju
-No one’s stepping up, what about Smoke Screen Analysis?
-This is a streamer quote right? “Worst person on earth”…?

“Wow, how’d you know? I’ll see you in two hours.”
Seo Jun was genuinely impressed.
There were far too many capable people among the viewers.
“Precognition is an ability I’ve never even tried, you know. You’re amazing. Thanks, chat!”
That viewer was subsequently destroyed by the chat for the next two hours.
And while that was happening, Seo Jun rested and read community posts for entertainment.
He’d reached Tier 4.
Now truly no one could stop him.
First, what needed to be done was punishing the Hunter Team.
And then after that?
‘Hmm…….’
To win, they couldn’t just be good at fighting.
They had to show peak performance across every domain.
How could they do that?
Other teams would concentrate intensively on one field per team.
Was there any way for those who’d been just fighting continuously until now to catch up?
“Ah.”
He understood.
The way to win.
“I’ll just have to keep stirring things up. Continuously. Since I won’t die anyway.”
He’d tell his teammates to work hard while he continued to interfere.
No one could stop him, after all.
It was simple.
And the fact that people predicted this was funny.
Slightly different in method, though.

[So what do we do now?]
==
Bang Ju’s gonna cause absolute chaos, so what do we do?
We’ll probably stay quiet as Hunter Team fans just today, but from tomorrow it’s gonna be a real mess
==

-You gotta stop Bang Ju
-We’re doomed LMAO
-If Bang Ju gets caught just once, he’ll swear he won’t do it again. Then someone will show up claiming they’ll catch Bang Ju. Then Bang Ju will toy with that guy, suddenly blow up his base and send him back to the stone age
└Ah LMAO saw the whole stream
└FR LMAOOOOOOO saw it

* * *

Two hours later.
The plot hook about Smoke Screen Analysis was still burning without being extinguished.

[Why isn’t he showing it?]
[Can’t he just give an explanation? That’s all we wanted anyway?]
[FR the hack suspicions are only from a tiny minority, just give us the explanation!]

And two more hours passed after Seo Jun re-entered the game and started hunting the Hunter Team.

[The Hunter Team’s so pathetic LMAO]
[Here’s a Seo Jun story: is there a streamer who suddenly took a Hiatus today out of fear he’d ask them to do Smoke Screen Analysis?]
[The frying pan is invincible and Geomsin is a god!]

The Hunter Team went through their daily routine of collecting resources while bearing their retribution, with the mindset that they’d suffer just this one day, only to meet Seo Jun and have it stolen; meanwhile, Seo Jun’s team repaired their base; and finally, the manager of Last Game’s operations was in deep thought.
Seo Jun’s team had restored their base.
Finally, the Last game operations manager was caught in a dilemma.
“Can I just upload the edited footage of this Smoke Grenade play? I really hope that streamer would just tell people. It’d be great content for the broadcast!”
From an operations standpoint, once you grant any request, it sets a precedent for similar requests, so the best strategy was just to keep doing what they’d been doing.
But now viewers were constantly flooding the chat demanding to see Smoke Screen Analysis because they were frustrated.
This wasn’t something that could be ignored.
The only best option was for the person who performed it to demonstrate it directly.
And then it happened.
“Nice!”

[Well, I’ll explain. Since you people are obviously going to keep talking about it anyway.]

Seo Jun, having found the Hunter Team one more time, began his content.
The operations manager’s face brightened as he watched the stream.
Honestly, he was curious too. He wanted to hear the proper explanation himself.
And.
Seo Jun used a Smoke Grenade.
In the screen where nothing was visible even a step ahead, Seo Jun moved busily about.
Then the smoke cleared and the screen showed four corpses.

[That’s how you do it! I showed you, so stop asking.]

-LMAOOOOOOO that’s the worst guy ever honestly
-The streamer is SO unhelpful!
-So what are you viewers gonna do about it
-Riot
-Right, Bang Ju doesn’t even see chat anyway~ super annoying?

“…….”
Public sentiment exploded.
In fact, this kind of public outrage in Seo Jun’s chat happens fairly often.
The streamer scratches the broadcast.
But if someone who’d never watched Seo Jun’s stream saw such a massive wave of chat.
“Yeah, I’ll upload it, right?”
The operations manager began drafting the official site announcement right away.
Finally, the edited footage was released to the world.

-Wow wait
-LMAO when the smoke clears you can actually…… wow…… that’s……
-Now stop taking your Hiatus and come out to explain Smoke Screen Analysis
