Chapter 591 – The Great Counter 1

While everyone was breathing, the silence flowed again.

The words that Ian had said, everyone had realized what they meant.

Ian who jumped into the middle of the Devil Army was a situation that no one would be able to divert their eyes from.

Each of the users in there were creeped out while looking at Ian, and curiosity was filled in their minds to see the situation progress.

Although the Devil Camp was still in an advantageous situation, it looked like it was just a matter of time before Ian could break off the momentum.

Even the stormy scene that Ian had shown was huge enough to overwhelm the rankers of the world.

Surely Ian’s skills were great, but it was so overwhelming that the atmosphere had changed.

As the eyes of Ian met with the High General, a little more time had passed.

And at that time.

The silence was broken with a heavy voice.

And that was the voice of the High General of the Devil Camp.

The No.1 ranking Warrior class user Kai of the US server, the High General of the Devil Camp.

He opened his mouth very slowly.

“You look like a friend who uses his head.”

The voice of Kai was very calm.

And in his voice, the undeniable admiration could be heard.

The things that Ian had shown, he was feeling excited with them.

And his admiration was only for the fights that Ian had done, and not for the battle ability of Ian’s.

On the contrary, Kai who was witnessing the true power of Ian was getting a boost.

And Kai wasn’t looking down on Ian or something.

It was just related to the disposition of the gameplay.

“Head huh… I’m a bit upset about it being expressed like that. It’s not head, it is called ‘strategy’ my friend.”

Seeing Ian accept his words with a smile, Kai too smiled.

And again spoke to him,

“I feel like fighting you right away, but…”

Kai’s gaze went back to the battlefield from Ian.

And in the place he was looking at was the assault captain of the Celestial Camp.

Kai’s mouth opened again,

“I don’t think that friend will stay still.”

“Huhu.”

Ian smiled really pleased.

There was no way Ian could feel bad.

He right away felt like a ‘God’ who was controlling the battlefield.

The battlefield was called as the ‘God’s Word Board’ and Ian was currently controlling them.

All the pieces on the board were moving according to the plan he had woven.

Kai’s words hadn’t even ended.

“And honestly, I feel rather good after a long time.”

At the unexpected words from Kai, Ian’s face showed interest.

“Why so?”

Kai smiled and replied to him,

“I don’t see much sense in attacking and trying to win over you.”

“…?”

“The High General Kai has won over Knight Ian… it’s not that I didn’t win over you.”

* * *

The High General Kai, a famous user in the US server whom everyone knew.

He was also at the topmost position in the warrior class rankings with an overwhelming lead, and he was the best player in the field.

He loved PVP so much, he had the nickname of ‘fighting dog’.

So the users of the US server knew well how serious the words of Kai were.

And the other servers could think of it as just a buff.

And Ian too could see the seriousness in his eyes.

‘Well, I’m meeting all the unusual guys in here.’

When the words of Kai are relayed to self, even with the win buff, there was no way that Ian would be able to fight with him.

And that kind of thought process was something that Ian too didn’t understand.

The in-game buffs, the position and the movement’s, Ian thought that they were all the part of a user’s skills.

Unless one was using a bug, Ian thought that ‘winner always win’.

But apart from that, the character of Kai was very interesting for him.

Surely he had become the High-General of the Devil camp, which meant that he had sufficient skills.

‘Why am I looking forward to seeing the kind of skills that he has?’

In fact, Ian was going to make a situation that Kai was hoping for.

Face to face, with the exact same buff.

Even if Kai wasn’t wanting it, he was still going to create the situation.

‘The High-General buff is 100 percent, and the generals buff is 70 percent…’

Anyway, the promotion of a general had a limit.

In general, no matter how many kills were done in a general’s position, one couldn’t become a High-General.

But on the battlefield, there was an additional buff concept called ‘Win buff’.

‘And if I have the general buff along with the win buff, I can fight with the similar stats buff.’

Ian thought about this and that and looked at the battlefield.

The battlefield which was initially looking favorable for the Devil Army was now balanced and looking fierce.

After a while.

[The battle is over.]

[Celestial Army Knight user ‘Ian’ turn.]

The turn of Ian had come, and he moved again without any hesitation.

And for that turn, he couldn’t do anything other than going straight and warp to the friendly side.

[Moved one space ahead.]

[The ‘Knight’s Sprint’ effect has been applied, and increasing the attack by 2%.]

[Moved one space ahead.]

[The ‘Knight’s Sprint’ effect has been…]

Ian was walking by the Medical aide of the Devil camp, and when he was reaching the last space.

The very moment.

“…!”

Ian’s eyes narrowed suddenly.

An unexpected message had come in front of his eyes.

[You have stepped on the last space of the Devil Army.]

[Successfully broke through the Devil Army!]

[The unique ability of ‘Knight’, the ‘Golden reverberation’ effect has been activated.]

[Warp to the rear of the Celestial Army.]

[All the vitality lost will be restored.]

[All the stamina consumed will be restored.]

In the God’s Word Board, the stamina meant the movable distance.

In other words, the effect of the ‘Golden reverberation’ being triggered, the turn of Ian was back.

And Ian who read the system messages twice had no choice but to call in.

‘Keu, it is working because I worked hard.’

Wheeing-!

With a low resonance, the golden waves rose around Ian.

Chuck-!

At the very same time, Ian had been moved to the Celestial camp side.

And exactly three faces ahead of him, a familiar face had caught the attention of Ian’s.

“Yo, it has been so long.”

Spoke Ian as he looked at the eyes of the man who was standing in front.

However, the expression of the man who met the eyes of Ian, wasn’t as satisfied as he looked at the face of Ian.

“Ha… it is always a bad thing with you.”

The Devil camp’s knight was a Korean Server Devildom ranker.

The face of ‘Irahan’, was distorted.

* * *

Irahan had the skills to do much more than Ian.

But the difference between buff stats was high, and Ian wasn’t a weak opponent.

Even with the same knight rank, Ian had the buff along with the ‘Knight’s Sprint’ buff.

And the buff too was beyond the limit due to the ‘Golden reverberation’ which he had just obtained.

Going five spaces ahead was the sprint, but as the stamina was placed back, he had eight spaces to move.

And the attack that would have risen with the sprint would be around 31 percent buff.

Irahan wouldn’t even be able to touch the collar of Ian, he would probably die in an instant.

With the fire-throwing arrow of Ian’s, he turned into a burnt barbecue.

With the buff that Ian would get, the arrows of Ian were like nuclear bombs.

[The Devil Army Knight, ‘Irahan’ vitality has been exhausted.]

[The knight user ‘Ian’ has won.]

[User ‘Irahan’ has been summoned outside the battle.]

And as the activities of Ian had continued, and the morale of the Celestial army was high.

“Wah!”

“That was crazy, awesome!”

Starting with the very least soldier, and getting a ridiculous six kills in three turns.

And by that time, the overseas user had started shouting for Ian God.

– Jesus, Ian God!

– Magician. Ian God!!

The word ‘Ian God’ which had belonged to the Korean Server was spreading quickly among the netizens of the whole world for the Celestial camp.

The word ‘Ian God’ could be heard without any exception on almost all the channels which were watching the ‘God’s Word Board’.

– Which country is Ian God from?

– Don’t know, maybe a Korean server user?

– Keu, surely Kailan’s start country.

– Dammit! I’ll use You-cast from today. I’ll collect the battle of Ian God and see them until I go mad!

After a while…

The heat had faded away temporarily.

No, it would be right to say that they were holding their breath rather than saying they were losing interest.

Ian raised a 3 kill again, and all the users were aware that he was going for a promotion of rank once again.

System messages started to come once again.

Tring-!

[The Knight user ‘Ian’, added 3 kills to the battlefield.]

[The conditions have been met.]

[The position of user ‘Ian’ rises to ‘General’.]

Ian who was pleased to see the messages smiled and the others on the battlefield were waiting to see his choice.

But unlikely his choice, when he was promoted to the officer.

The users were able to predict the position that Ian was most likely going to choose.

Ian’s tendency to combat had been revealed, and everyone knew what position would be able to carry his tendency.

[You have been promoted to a ‘General’.]

[Choose the career title.]

[Selectable positions: Assault Captain/ Defense Captain. Which position would you like to choose?]

And the system messages come onto the battlefield again.

And after a while.

Once again the choice of Ian was beyond the understanding of everyone.

[The knight user ‘Ian’ of the Celestial Army has gained the position of ‘Assault Captain’.]

[The combat stats of User Ian will be reset.]
