Chereads / Sleeping Ranker / Chapter 6 - Episode 006

Chapter 6 - Episode 006

[Recognizes the iris.]

[Player Hyunseong, would you like to access Idea?]

This is the phrase I saw after about 16 hours.

2AM.

Hyuna logged in during the day and is now sleeping. This means that there is no one to interfere with.

I just don't have that damn narcolepsy skill

« Connect. »

With those words, the landscape changed and the connection was successful.

The landscape was the same as in the past year. A beginner's village where there is still no one.

Now is the time to leave this place.

« Should I purchase skills or items from the DP shop? »

But Hyunsung shook his head.

« Because if I spend more time here for no reason, I may get narcolepsy again. I'd rather buy an item after completing the tutorial. »

Because it has a cooldown, it's better to live quickly, but then, try again with the skill while you're asleep.

All you have to do is just blow the day away.

Besides, the day changed as midnight passed, so it wouldn't be strange if I was drowsy right away.

In that case, it would be better to break the tutorial and live to your heart's content.

Then then.

[You slept for 58 hours and 32 minutes with the Narcissism skill. Apply as a skill

all.]

[Strength 11, reflex 13, stamina 9, mana 6, intellect 19 increased.]

It was really random, but I liked it.

The total has gone up by a whopping 58. In terms of level, it's a whopping 11.5 up. I couldn't possibly feel bad.

'Let's distribute the remaining stats after the tutorial is over.'

I didn't buy the skill right away, so it's not too late to look at it and distribute it.

So Hyunseong saw the door in the center of the village that he had not seen in a year.

The door to the tutorial. Just touch that door and you can start the tutorial now.

'You always said the first button is important.'

It reminded me of something my father once told me.

I write my father's words that the beginning is always important

And this is the beginning of Hyeonseong and the tutorial that will be the Star Tri.

I put my hand on the door with some tension and anticipation of what kind of test it would be.

[Are you sure you want to go to the tutorial?]

The answer was obvious.

« Yes. »

As soon as he answered, Hyunseong's body was sucked into the door.

And the landscape has changed.

It was moved to a space that could be called a pure white space.

A space where you try to test something even if you pretend.

Whatever comes out, a message appeared the moment I thought and expected it.

[A quest is created.]

[tutorial]

-Choose a weapon and hit the scarecrow to destroy it.

– No time limit. no failure.

-Reward: The selected beginner's weapon will be presented.

This is an exhausting tutorial.

I didn't search for what kind of test I was going to take on purpose, and I didn't even ask Hyuna.

A sigh came out.

'Actually, I'm stupid for expecting a tutorial.'

Hyeonseong sighed a little and chose the most common weapon, the sword.

Hyeonseong, a certified 2nd dan in Daehan Kendo.

Of course, there is a difference between modern kendo and the swordsmanship used in games, but a familiar weapon is still good, isn't it?

Besides, I always used a sword when playing games in the past.

'Looking at the skills, it's like a hybrid job, so it's better to hold a familiar sword.'

Besides, most of the abilities were even, so I thought it would be convenient in many ways to hold a sword.

So when I selected a sword, a scarecrow appeared.

At the same time, a mark indicating the start appeared above the scarecrow's head.

« Let's get this done as quickly as possible! »

As soon as the start started, he drew his sword and swung his sword towards the scarecrow.

After all, clean feet like a Jewish man!

At the same time, the scarecrow was cut down like a sheaf of straw at once.

Incredible speed in less than a second.

And the message popped up.

[You have cleared the quest.]

[Compensation will be paid.]

[You can move to any town you want.]

[You have acquired the title 'Monster Rookie'.]

[You have achieved a new record. Would you like to leave a record? (Anonymous registration is possible due to the effect of non-professionals.)]

I broke one tutorial, but 5 messages appeared.

Bewildered Hyunseong read each one step by step.

« By the way, the monster rookie you just picked up is just like that, so what's a non-professional? »

The information came to mind.

[No Professional (Legendary)]

-Description: You haven't broken the tutorial in 1 year! Are you absent? It's a pro too!

-Effect: All rankings, nicknames, etc. can be registered anonymously, all stats +10

[Monster Rookie (Only)]

-Description: A title given to users who cleared the tutorial at once.

-Effect: Increases all experience points by 10%.

« Five. »

It seems that the non-professional was obtained when I changed my job last time.

All stats got +10 from that effect, so stats seem to have increased.

Besides, it is possible to register anonymously. It seemed better than expected.

'Actually, what I want is to make money by selling items rather than fame. Besides, if you show that you achieved 1000th place while secretly working as an unofficial ranker

Would you be surprised?'

With that in mind, this new record was also registered anonymously.

It was definitely a convenient feature.

Also, when you become famous, you are not the only one who suffers from headaches.

Just like a lot of insects entangled in a colorful flower.

'But I'm more attracted to the effect of the monster god, who is far below the rating.'

Increases all experience gain by 10%.

For Hyunseong, who has a 5-fold difference in experience from a normal grade job, it is an option like rain in a drought.

When I saw the effects of the titles, I was curious about the titles I've gotten so far.

I wanted to check out the titles I've earned so far.

'List of titles.'

[Title List]

[The 10,000-hour rule (only)]

-Description: After completing 10,000 hours in one field, you are a true pro!

-Effect: All skill experience points are acquired by an additional 10%.

[No, I didn't even start, but I changed jobs?

new Year)]

– Description: A title given to users who changed jobs before the start of the tutorial.

– Effect: Residual stat +50

[Are you a legend? I'm a rookie (Shin)]

– Description: A title that can be obtained when changing to a new class job.

– Effect: All stats +30 (including special stats)

[Professional Sleeper (Legend)]

– Description: You are a true sleeper after 10,000 hours of sleep! I really didn't know if it would break.

-Effect: You can sleep whenever you want, all stats +10

'In addition to acquiring an additional 10% of all skill experience points, the rest is complied with. In addition, the new grade title includes special stats, so when a new stat is added, the basic +30 is added.'

It was definitely good that the new rating was good.

If you look at the other options, it is just + all stats, but only the new grade title contains special stats.

It looks like you've drawn the lottery.

I've seen all the titles now.

It's time to leave this damn place.

[You can move to any town you want.]

Hyunseong pressed the message.

Then the central continent map of Idea appeared.

Since the size of the idea was wider than the earth, the continents were different for each server, but Korea, the game powerhouse and the country that developed the idea, was the central continent.

The area that Hyeonseong chose was none other than Deha Village.

Among the villages that beginners can select after clearing the tutorial, monsters are the most difficult villages.

'It also gives more experience points.'

It was hard to see that Hyunseong's level right now was actually level 1.

Due to various titles or things like that, the overall ability was a whopping 333. A level similar to 62 if you hit it with simple level calculations.

Of course, the actual level of 62 would be higher due to various effects such as titles and items. But with simple calculations, it's already level 62.

And there was another reason for choosing Deha Village.

'There is an orc village nearby.'

Orcs are usually level 30 to 40 monsters.

In other words, a monster that is difficult to catch even when a beginner is dead and awake.

However, near the village of Deha, there are not only beginner hunting grounds, but also orc villages. Even if you accidentally get caught up in your death, there is no such thing as a loss.

Thanks to that, it was safe to say that there was no one who chose Deha Village.

'The best hunting ground in the game is a hunting ground without people.'

The time of light-up has arrived.

« ha. »

Deha village guard Hansen sighed as the ground went out.

Another guard next to me might have asked, but he didn't. Because I knew the reason well.

« Damn it, why is this in my town?

Aren't strangers coming? »

« Hansen, you're not asking because you really don't know, are you? »

« Shit. »

Hansen knew well the guard Smith who was standing next to him.

Acidic slime that can be said to be the specialty of Deha Village.

The beginner monsters in other villages are rabbits or deer, and if the difficulty is a little higher, they are foxes, whereas the beginner monsters in Deha Village are mountain castle slimes.

It is also a very acidic slime.

Destroying nuclear weapons is difficult, and the attack itself is difficult to avoid.

Acid cannons that spit like cannons were never at a level that beginners could avoid. Besides, if you hit the acid gun, not only the durability of the equipment but also the hair melted, so who would want to come here?

« No, but isn't it too much? There is still an orc village here, but a stranger with a fairly well-known name is likely to come! »

« You didn't even know that. »

« Okay. »

Likewise, the orcs were different from the orcs of other regions.

Unlike ordinary orcs, orcs have red fur. Unlike ordinary orcs, they were more ferocious and powerful. Of course, the experience was excellent, but on the contrary, the items were poor.

Where is the user who will take it and hunt it?

then then

A ray of light fell from the center of the village.

« Uh, huh? »

« Are you sure that light? »

It's been so long since I've seen the light that it's fading now!

It was the light that a stranger had come here.

The other villagers also saw the light with anticipation, but they all returned to their seats with disappointment.

The guards Hansen and Smith, likewise, showed signs of disappointment.

« Ttttttt, I liked it because it was a foreigner who came here after a long time, but I am a beginner. »

« That's it. No matter how immortal they are, they are pitiful. »

Both were negative.

The only monster a beginner could catch here was acid slime, but since it was never a monster that a beginner could catch, it was not unreasonable for the two guards to feel sorry for them.

But then.

« Hey, do you know where the monsters are in this area? »

The beginner stranger who was summoned earlier spoke to Hansen.

After thinking for a while, Hansen nodded and answered.

« If you keep going over there, you will see acid slimes. But I recommend not going. »

« Yes? »

« Acid slime is a difficult monster for beginners to catch. »

« Yes, I know. »

« What? »

« No, I came here. »

« Oh, no. Besides, the acid cannons they fire are as fast as cannons, so it's hard to dodge! Besides, if you hit it, it even melts your hair! »

Hansen even gave a warning, but the young man nodded and said thank you.

« Thanks for the advice. Then I'll see you later. »

After saying hello, seeing the stranger running in the direction Hansen had pointed out, Smith shook his head and clicked his tongue.

« You look young, it's perfect. »

To Smith, he just seemed like a young man who had given up on life.

Hansen nodded his head with a bitter expression as if he was thinking the same thing.

The stranger clicked his tongue, wondering if there were any circumstances of his own.

« Ttttttt, strangers seem to be having a hard time as well. »

« That's it. »

Meanwhile, a young man, no, Hyunseong, who came to Deha village, followed Hansen's guidance.

At first, I thought about getting skills and items from the DP shop, but I wanted to check my control first.

'Isn't it a bit like a novice monster to check the controls?'

It must be difficult to be a low-level monster.

I wondered if I could feel control against such a monster, but what about it?

Wouldn't it be the same to get a sense of the principle of movement or hunting once?

As I was thinking, I found the acid slime that Han Sen spoke of.

A slime with an almost transparent body.

'I can see the nucleus, but it won't be easy to hit that little thing.' It was definitely a monster that a beginner would find difficult to catch.

But that doesn't mean Hyunseong will back down.

If I had just retreated to something like that, I wouldn't have chosen this town.

« Churp chump! »

The acid slime made a strange sound and spit out acid cannons.

The saliva-sized acid cannon flew like a bullet, but not as quickly as Hansen had warned.

'For beginners, it's as fast as a cannon'

You can see it.'

However, to Hyunseong, who has high agility, it seemed to fly just like a paper airplane.

Hyeonseong, who lightly dodged and rushed to the acid slime, grabbed his sword and lightly stabbed the nucleus.

« Quiyik! »

[You hit the vital point. A critical hit will occur.]

[You have killed Acid Slime.]

[Acquire experience points.]

only one room.

It was a natural result given Hyeonseong's ability.

However, Hyunseong frowned as if he was not satisfied.

« Is this too easy? »

The experience points were satisfactory, but it was so trivial that it made me think that I had to catch a holy slime. I thought it would be better to catch the orcs from the start.

« I must go back and ask where the orc village is. »

Still, I tried to hunt while catching acid slime when it was a low level section where leveling up was easy, but I was still not satisfied with this level of monster theory.

Rather, it's fun to beat the orcs who have high experience points from the beginning, and the level up will be quick, so it's one stone or two birds.

Not long after that, we were able to reach the village post again.

« Oh, I'm sorry, but do you know where the orc village is? »

I was puzzled as I saw the guard whose impressions were wrinkled in an instant at his words.

What's wrong?

« Why do you ask the orc village? »

« Of course you ask to catch an orc, right? »

nonsensical question. However, Hyunseong responded kindly.

Don't look at it like NPCs in other games you've seen on the internet. Because of the excellent artificial intelligence, NPCs are more human than humans, so you have to be careful with your words.

But what came back was a decisive answer.

« You shouldn't think like that. »

» Yes? »

« You look young, but you shouldn't give up on life like that. »

« Hansen is right. I need to try harder to live. Stay strong and it's not a big deal, but get it. »

« You will receive mine. »

I just asked the orc village, and I was given a few coins along with cheers to cheer up.

Next to him, Hansen also handed him a coin.

It was absurd to see it, but it was Hyunseong who could not refuse to put it on.

« Go, thank you. »

« Yeah, I'm talking like a nephew. Don't even think about acid slime, and with the money we gave you, go to that general store and buy scrolls to other villages. »

« Yeah, stay strong. »

« Yes, yes. »

Hyunseong looked at the coin he handed to him with such support.

[Title: You have obtained the 'Begging King'.]

[The Begging King (Rare)]

-Description: « Real begging is getting the other person to give you money before you even beg! That is true begging! »

-Effect: NPC's favorability +10%.

« What is this… …

It was nice to receive the money, but for some reason, he felt uncomfortable.
