That was right. There were hundreds of gigantic roots that sprung up from the ground. The tip of the roots were all pointy and sharp just like the tip of a wooden spear. These tree roots suddenly appeared and loomed over Philip Village.
Then, the notification rang for the people inside Philip Village.
At the exact same moment, the ears of the members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys started to elongate and become pointy.
Wow
A 15% increase in all five of our basic stats? Plus a 15% increase in AGI? Isnt this too fraudulent?
For these rankers that stood above all the other rankers, percentage increases were bound to have a tremendous effect on their strength and power.
Meanwhile, the viewers who were watching the tree roots growing all over Philip Village spoke in wonder.
On the other hand, PD Kim Daeguk of ATV broadcasting station was told that their ratings were already close to 60%.
C, crazy… ! What the hell are those tree roots? Hahahahahaha!
He was smiling happily. But at that exact same moment, they heard the voice of Genie, the guild master of Legend Guild. Genie and ATV were connected since they were currently on air and doing a broadcast.
PD Kim Daeguk was caught in shock.
What in the world does she mean by that?
Right now, the viewers wanted to see the power of those tentacle-like tree roots. But they were requesting interruptions in the broadcast?
W, what do you mean?
Genie calmly explained to PD Kim Daeguk after he had asked her to clarify her words.
PD Kim Daeguk was left speechless. Yes. That was right. Minhyuks name was not written on that list. Even Genie and the rest of her guild members did not know that Minhyuk would come here so she did not write his name on the list.
PD Kim Daeguk was now in a bind. Currently, the people that the viewers wanted to see the most were Black Mage Ali and the Frying Pan Killer.
But you want me to take them out from the broadcast?
If he did that, then the biggest highlight of the scenes would be taken out and the rest of the scenes would naturally become dull videos. It was important for them to maintain what the viewers wanted if they wanted to maintain their high ratings.
PD Kim Daeguk couldnt let the chance slip away so he asked her
What do you want?
He asked because he was not a fool. Genie fell silent for a while before answering.
His eyes widened in shock.
25 billion.
Should we really ask for 25 billion, Father-nim?
They will have no choice but to give it to you.
It was none other than Black Dragon who spoke for the request in profits. He spoke those words as soon as he came inside.
He was an outstanding businessman. After all, he was the chairman of Ilhwa Group both in name and in reality. And this was not just because he was being good to themselves, doing this would be for the better. Currently, ATV had only signed with Legend Guild and not Black Dragon and the Boys. To compensate them, Black Dragon tried to reap and induce profits in this way.
In fact, the profits that he would reap from Black Dragon and the Boys would be given to Share a Love Lunchbox. This was so he could help the needy and hungry children, elderly and boys and girls all over the country! To some, he would appear to be a greedy man. But he had no greed for money. He only believed that one should not live their life at a loss.
Black Dragon and the Boys and Legend Guild would only appear to look like people who were blinded by money on the ATVs side. But it would never be on their side. It was only natural that they increased the profits that they would receive in due course. This was none other than the Chairmans Management Secret.
Of course, several billion would be deducted from the 25 billion to be shared among everyone including Minhyuk, Black Mage Ali and the Legend Guild. But the only question was if Genie would be willing to do this then would the broadcasting station lose so much money?
Then, at that moment
His words sounded like he was telling her to I beg you, dont cut off the show!. Genie turned back to look at Black Dragon in surprise.
Black Dragon. He is a Legendary Class in Athenae and he is also the chairman of Ilhwa Group.
Prince Argon hurried back inside the village with the knights. And with his return, the Royal Shop had opened!
Wow. Th, this is crazy!
What the hell? A 40% HP and MP recovery potion? Its only 3,000 points!!!
Who the hell is this elf?
What the hell did Minhyuk do?
The members of Legend Guild were all bound to be shocked by the content of the shop.
And there were even the tentacles that surrounded Philip Village! The tree roots accurately flew straight as they stabbed through the bodies of the Silver Wolves.
Stab!
After stabbing the Silver Wolves, the tree roots wriggled and flung them far away.
Arent the tentacles extremely strong?
They had a hard time leaving some scars on those Silver Wolves but just one stab from the roots had killed them.
Minhyuk also pulled out the Saints Sword.
Saints Protection!
Uwooooooooo!
Kyaaaa!
In just an instant, the tide of war had turned. In addition to the items that they had purchased from the Royal Shop, their stats had also risen sharply with their Holy Power stat. The members of Legend Guild literally flew around the battlefield. The demons and demonic beasts couldnt dance around anymore as they fell down one by one.
And at that moment
Vwoooooooooooooom
The number that Legend Guild had successfully hunted was about half of the numbers of the marching enemy troops. But if they kept on fighting? Then, Legend Guild would have definitely been pushed back in the end.
Then, at that moment
Keu, keuaaaaaack!
Crow, a bounty hunter and the best dealer in Legend Guild, shrieked loudly.
His body was suddenly pierced through. And the being that stood in front of him was none other than the Slayer of Failure, Conir.
Be careful. The Slayer of Failure is much stronger than any of the mobs that I have ever seen. Whats worse is that Minhyuk-nims Holy Power will not have much of an effect on him since he is a chimera.
Minhyuk nodded his head.
The knights of Cordis Empire jumped in. However, something extraordinary happened next.
Pipipipipipipipi
With Conirs fast movements, more than five of the knights fell down.
Get away!
Minhyuk shouted to them. It would be better if the knights of the Cordis Empire returned as safe as they could.
The members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys surrounded him. However, they were extremely nervous that their mouths had run dry.
Then, Conir muttered
Hungry
Minhyuk tilted his head in confusion. When he looked at him closely, he felt like he was looking at himself. His expression, his eyes and his words, he looked exactly like him from before. He knew that he was feeling an intense amount of hunger right now.
...What the hell.
Even though Commander Rufel had ordered for a retreat, he still had a deep smile hanging on his face.
Conir, the Slayer of Failure, was his most powerful chimera. Among all of the chimera that he had, he was the strongest. He was someone that could never be killed. However, Conir only had half an hour to remain invincible. In that 30 minute time frame, Conir would slaughter as many as he could before returning back to him.
He was a weapon that was exclusively designed for slaughter. But it wasnt the demons nor Rufel who created Conir. It was the humans. And the power that created him was none other than hunger.
The Sun Guilds, the strongest guilds after the four great guilds they had the wild ambition of sweeping the enemy with the troops that they had built from behind once Legend Guild fell down. For that ambition, they did not lend a helping hand towards Legend Guild.
But they were bound to get flustered.
Re, retreat?
W, were in trouble!
The Sun Guilds had even hired talented mercenaries. But the enemy was already retreating?
Lets hurry up and go now! Lets hunt the rest of the troops.
Right.
They urgently moved. And Elf King Gorn, who saw this scene, could only say
Really pathetic.
His expression looked solemn and sincere.
Dont I have this expression on my face? So my words should definitely come from the heart!
The heads of the Sun Guilds had nothing to say. Some guild leaders couldnt even raise their heads in shame. Some were even heartbroken.
With just one word, Gorn had given all of them a punch to the gut!
Gorn continued to watch the situation with his thousand-li eyes. He could see the man who saved his son. That man had also created such a miracle in this desperate situation.
Im willing to do whatever that man asks of me.
The members of Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys stared at Conir, who was walking along, vigilantly. Conir, someone who was covered with bandages all over and only had his eyes visible, could give goosebumps to anyone who saw him.
Everyone held their breath as they focused on Conirs each and every movement. Each and every one of them prepared their best one-shot skill as they watched his slow movements.
Genies whip was covered in fire. This was her most powerful skill that could give her a 170% additional attack power.
On the other side, Lockes double-handed axe was also filled with curses. It was the power that would cause the opponents skin to rot as soon as it touches their body. This was none other than Jeffrits Curse.
Abel also prepared his Mortals Death. It was a power that could allow him to stab his dagger straight into his chest in a blink of an eye before exploding.
Minhyuk was also preparing his Splitting Sword.
Right now!
Genie sent the signal.
Dash
The first one to move was Abel. He rushed straight at Conir who was standing in the middle. Since he was an assassin class, he was bound to be the fastest when launching an attack.
Shwaaaaaaaa!
Just as when he was about to stab the dagger straight into Conirs chest Conirs sword moved. Abels dagger was easily blocked by his sword.
Abel was shocked. He had confirmed Conirs strength through his Monster Analysis but this force was too much. It was almost nonsensical.
It seemed like this was the power of his AGI that was at x3. He could instantaneously move to defend himself.
Shiiiiiiiing
Conirs sword moved smoothly and gently. Then
Pipipipipipi
Several cuts were drawn on Abels body. And
Spurt!
Spurt!
Blood spurted out all over his body.
Keoheok!
Goddamn! Jeffrits Madness!
Locke slammed his double-handed axe straight down on the ground with all his might. At the same time, two powerful red lines stretched out from his axe before flying straight towards Conir. The moment these lines hit something, their body parts would immediately rot and would be unusable for the next 20 seconds.
But Conir moved away swiftly. His movements were as light as a feather.
Dash
He had escaped from the attack with just a light leap. At that moment, Khan suddenly appeared behind him. He grinned as he struck out without missing a beat.
Caught you. Giants Fury!
This skill allowed him to hit his opponent from above. With both his arms crossed together, his attack could have as much as 200% additional attack power.
Right at that moment
Conirs bandage loosened. The bandage wrapped around Genies neck.
Keop!
Conirs body was drawn from the bandage that he had wrapped around Genies neck. With this movement, Khans fist slammed into nothing but air.
Hundreds of afterimages of the soldiers swords, Black Mage Alis Fire Field, Minhyuks Splitting Sword, Ascars Hundred Weapons. All those attacks rained on Conirs body. However, Conir held his sword as he danced around like a ghost.
You crazy son of a bitch! Go to hell!
Locke couldnt help but scream out curses.
Conirs movements were truly horrifying. He looked like a ghost as he moved his joints around. It was literally creepy.
Then, something more extraordinary happened.
The guild members looked on in horror. This was a skill that could nullify and cancel a huge number of attacks in an instant. They already knew that he was strong, but they did not know that he was this strong.
They gulped as they watched Conir trudging along.
