NOVEL WEB chapter 1137 - Difficult Advice (8)
As players gathered, the Dragon Temple lit up brighter than ever with the party member summoning effect.
As expected from the setting of being located in the deepest part of the secret realm, it had a mysterious atmosphere, but it was a dark place overall, but now it was as bright as the ground.
[Shield Soldier] More to come
Usually, the number of people who can enter a world is limited due to technical issues, but PlayerZ assumes large-scale battles on the field, so there is no limit to the number of party members.
Since there is a limit to the number of people who can enter certain dungeons, PVP arenas, etc., the number of party members is naturally limited.
Also, depending on the setting, there are limits to the range or number of people that some buffs and recovery skills can reach, so users used to decide the number of party members on their own.
However, in the Dragon Temple where we are, there was no limit to the number of people, only the permission of the dragon tribe.
Of course, that doesn’t mean there’s a limit to the number of players that can connect to a server and channel, and if they were to summon an unlimited number of players, it would interfere with the fight, so Yoo Sang-hoon would probably hold back.
“I think the enemy has noticed. They’re coming here.”
The party members haven’t been summoned yet, but the enemy realized something was going on here thanks to the flashy summoning effects.
Hongryong, the swordsman controlled by Yeom Jun-yeol, raised his sword and planted flame magic on the blade.
The bard also picked up his dragon-scale Celtic harp and began playing.
The noise of the enemy mixed in as soon as the performance wishing for good luck resonated.
Crunch!
The enemy broke the barrier that the NPCs had set up and invaded inside.
Hongryong jumped high between the fragments of the broken barrier.
The moment the dragon scales of the light armor were reflected by the light of Yeom Jun-yeol's magical power, the flames from the swordsman's blade covered the enemy.
'If you strike while floating in the air, the power increases, but it's hard to manipulate precisely, but you've grown even more in the meantime!'
Even if the swordsman is a good character, if the user controlling it is not good, it would not be able to exert this much power.
You can see this clearly just by looking at the fact that Andain, the heroine who was considered the strongest character in Plumago, was unable to exert her power when she was manipulated by a malicious commenter.
While doing it again, Yeom Jun-yeol, who had properly mastered the character manipulation, freely swung his magic and sword to cut down the enemies.
However, no matter how much Yeom Jun-yeol's manipulation skills improved, the character's performance was limited, so he couldn't handle the enemies that were rushing in.
Yeom Jun-yeol didn't even avoid attacks that he could avoid.
If I retreat, the blind priest who was playing right behind me, trembling with his hands and holding back his body as if he had fallen under the enemy’s control, seemed to think that the NPCs supporting him would be in danger.
‘Are you planning to kill even one Yeom Jun-yeol!?’
The enemy knew that the blind priest trusted Yeom Jun-yeol the most and persistently targeted him.
It seemed that if Yeom Jun-yeol died, the blind priest’s mind would waver and they could use this.
However, there was no way the situation would turn around now that my move had been made.
A ray of light shot out from the dazzling summoning effects that filled the dragon temple.
Kwaaang!
When the movement of the light stopped, I could clearly see its identity.
It was a shield soldier wearing a dolphin tube-shaped shield and a colorful rash guard avatar.
Yoo Sang-hoon swung his balloon-like weapon avatar to strike the enemy closest to Yeom Jun-yeol, and blocked all the attacks pouring down on Yeom Jun-yeol right there.
Starting with the appearance of the shield soldier, the summoned party members appeared one after another.
[The shield soldier is here!]
[I believed in Chairman Bang~!]
[Oh, seriously, turn on the broadcast and do some front-end work ㅠㅠ]
The fans who were making a fuss just because the shield soldier whispered to me went crazy.
I checked the stamina of Yeom Jun-yeol and myself and said.
“Come quickly.”
“Call me quickly.”
Yoo Sang-hoon, who switched to voice chat mode and started talking, didn’t give a single word.
Even so, Yoo Sang-hoon was very welcome and reliable right now.
He continued to summon party members while blocking the enemy’s attacks with his shield.
“I’m going to use an area-of-effect skill. Protect me!”
“What? You’ll be defenseless when you use that. I’ve been preparing for my career, so I haven’t used most of the skills of a spearman that are good for defense. If an enemy comes this way, I can catch two, but if there are more than three, it’ll be dangerous. Recite the spell while preparing to use a recovery item.”
Doshi-hu and Jang Nam-wook, who arrived almost at the same time as Yoo Sang-hoon, also joined.
As the three joined, the tension gradually disappeared from Yeom Jun-yeol’s face.
Yoo Sang-hoon changed the voice chat settings so that all players in the party could hear him.
Yoo Sang-hoon’s voice would also reach the ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) party members who were still being summoned.
“I changed the party type to a large-scale raid. I’ve created squads of no more than ten people per direction, and I’ll leave the command to the squad leader I temporarily decided. The enemy group is surrounding this area, so they’ll rush in soon. If you think you were summoned late, use your attack or evasion skills right away.”
Yoo Sang-hoon spoke at length, like Jang Nam-wook.
But it was also an easy explanation that anyone who played the game could understand right away.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than .net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
All of the people that Yoo Sang-hoon carefully selected and called were PlayerZ addicts, so they understood right away and expressed their agreement through the party chat window with ‘ok’, ‘okay’, and ‘yes’.
It was also a masterful thing not to use voice chat.
When raiding with this many people, they had to be careful not to mess up the order by limiting the number of people who spoke.
Then, the battle with the summoned players began at the same time as the enemy’s full-scale attack.
[This is crazy… … Wow… … ]
[Wow! There really are a lot of people ٩( ´◡` )( ´◡` )۶]
[Everyone, come quickly! (*^ㅅ^)ノ]
[Are we all going to fight together? I wish I could fight with you ★(*´◒`*)★]
[Please support spectator mode, please show me fighting in other places]
[Some people are connected after turning on the broadcastㅇㅇ Fighting the traitor's summons in the northwest water clock area]
[Looking at how everyone is immediately changing their skills, it seems like they didn't just place them? They just used any skill, but the weak point attack was still judged]
[This is the shield soldier placing the party member summoning positions according to the squadㄷㄷ]
[Isn't it crazy to create a squad and place positions while sending party invitations to dozens or hundreds of people, considering their jobs and levels?]
I went into battle while watching the chat window passing by.
My squad currently had Yeom Jun-yeol, Yoo Sang-hoon, Jang Nam-wook, and Do Si-hoo.
We were relatively low level compared to the users Yoo Sang-hoon called.
What we were dealing with now were the low level, fast-moving, low-level stragglers that the enemy had sent in a hurry.
‘The movement and stealth skills are high, but the killing power doesn’t seem that great. It would have been dangerous if it was just me and Yeom Jun-yeol, but there’s no enemy that can break through Yoo Sang-hoon’s defense.’
The purpose of our squad was survival and protecting the blind priest.
The blind priest said he trusted me and my friends, but he didn’t know what would happen if Yeom Jun-yeol or I disappeared as a link.
Knowing that, Yoo Sang-hoon, who was the best at defense, joined the same squad and moved in a relatively safe area with the goal of survival.
‘But I can’t just sit back and do nothing in a fight like this. Yoo Sang-hoon wouldn’t just survive.’
Whenever there were no enemies, Yoo Sang-hoon checked the situation and gave voice orders to a specific squad.
Every time, Yeom Jun-yeol’s gaze moved and naturally highlighted that squad, and exclamations erupted in the chat window.
Yeom Jun-yeol's fans were just happy that people came to help, but those who knew the game well were shocked and excited whenever they saw the names of the players who appeared.
[It's just a PJ All-Star match]
[I'd believe it even if you said it was a teaser for the World Championship main event]
[Aren't most of the players from the trailer video here????]
[Everyone here must be good at games! (*´ ワ `*)"]
[He's good at it, but he's also a loser]
[He came right away when I called him, so I guess he was just watching the broadcast and logging in to see the hidden quest being cleared in real timeㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
The players that Yoo Sang-hoon called were all players who had made a name for themselves on PlayerZ.
Yoo Sang-hoon didn't pick his friends, but as a game loser, he naturally ended up around similar losers because he rolled around in dangerous battlefields.
This was impossible in Plumago because it didn't have multiplayer and there were no users, but it could happen in PlayerZ.
Yoo Sang-hoon's comrades who stopped the other world in the port city of leap, members who formed a team for the World Championship, people who happened to meet in the field during an exploration and conquered the story together, and opponents who fought to decide the winner in the arena.
They were all strong enough to jump into a dangerous place they had never been to before and do their part, and they loved PlayerZ.
'And the number is increasing There are.’
They weren’t addicts enough to be connected in real time, but there were people who were watching the broadcast or who logged in in a hurry because they heard the news.
Yoo Sang-hoon selected among them and invited party members to form squads, and strengthened their power by swapping out squads that were severely damaged.
As a result, squads that could last long without swapping out and defeating enemies naturally attracted attention.
If there was a famous user in that squad, it was even more chaotic.
[The Berserker defeats the Floor Master again!]
[Is that Berserker the Berserker I know? I thought he only did PVP, so why is he here? LOLOLOLOL]
[I think he must have added BPB as his friend after a 1v1 before? He’s so famous because he did that during the broadcast]
[The teamwork of the Lava Sorcerer is crazy, how did he catch that]
The Berserker and Lava Sorcerer combo, who boast the most PVP participation and the most wins, also participated.
In fact, it’s safe to say that they’re a PVP with conditions in the world He is a contender for the championship and is competing in the competition. Is it okay for him to come now?
No matter how important the match is, it is natural for a gamer to not miss out on a hidden quest.
And there was someone who received just as much attention. That person was also a contender for the championship.
Also, for personal reasons his gaze went there.
That would be expected, since that person was a kid in our class.
‘Inseon-oh was watching this broadcast too. You must have met Yoo Sang-hoon in the preliminaries and talked to him, so did you add him as a friend in the game?’
The #1 raid leader on the adventure mode server.
Inseon-oh, currently known as the Land Spider or DUSK, also appeared at the Dragon Temple.
The situation was tilted heavily toward the players.
Reflecting this, the somewhat gloomy Dragon Temple BGM changed to cheerful and bright.
While PlayerZ’s fans were excited by the song they heard for the first time, Inseon-oh, who had finished a short conversation with his squad members, ran into the enemy lines.
