Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 206: New Golden Hunting Bonanza (2)

“Move to the Cunning Vampire Garrison.”

[You have moved to the Cunning Vampire Garrison.]

I found nothing special about this hunting ground in Mongolia, just like Japan, perhaps because it’s the same “Revival Legend.”

So, I quickly moved to the Vampire Garrison that Director Sok mentioned and met him at its gates.

“Oh, you’ve come here quickly.”

“Yeah. Honestly, I was anxious to come here.”

Of course, I wasn’t bored in the Sabre Steel Tooth Tiger Habitat. The more I hunted the monsters, the more EXP and levels I gained.

However, I felt disappointed that the levels of the monsters dropped to 800-900 to the previous 1200 in the Giants Graves.

That’s why I was so glad to receive Director Sok’s message.

Anyway, we skipped greetings and followed him immediately.

“By the way, there is nobody here.”

“Yeah. There are no Mongolian players who are competent enough to hunt here. So, Myongjin is going to occupy this place. In about 30 minutes, 100 security guards from Myongjin will come here to stay permanently.”

“Thank you.”

Anyway, I thanked him because he secured this hunting ground for me.

“You’re welcome. It is my duty. If they arrive here, I will tell them that you are hunting here now and message you if something happens.”

“Sure, thank you.”

After saying goodbye to him, I stepped straight into the Cunning Vampire Garrison.

Not long after entering the garrison, I encountered the cunning vampires.

This was my first time encountering them. I was confident in hunting them, but I acted cautiously because I needed to evaluate their abilities first.

At that moment, something unexpected happened.

Pop!!

The cunning vampire, my target, disappeared in an instant. Then it appeared right next to me. I smiled before I knew it because this confirmed that this was the best hunting ground for me as it didn’t require a herding team.

Anyway, the vampire appeared by my side, but I didn’t attack it.

Rather, I checked my health window and carefully watched how much damage the vampire would do to me.

“Blood Curse!”

[With the Forgotten Hero’s Cloak and 9 titles, you have 59% debuff resistance.

-You have completely defended against the blood curse.]

Just like normal magic monsters, the vampire also used debuffs against me.

However, the vampire’s debuffs were completely blocked even before being properly applied due to the items I was wearing.

But it continued to attack me.

“Blood explosion! Blood Storm! Blood Suck!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

It launched several attacks against me and even used its sharp nails to attack me.

One minute has passed since it started attacking me.

“Hmm. It’s okay.”

When the vampire used its characteristic blood-sucking skill, I lost more of my health.

And as the word bloodsucking suggested, it was able to recover through the blood it sucked.

However, my health was still almost unchanged.

Of course, only a single vampire was attacking me right now

Even if there were 100 or 200 vampires like this, it seemed that I could hold out without any problem. I was confident in hunting all of them.

Anyway, I finished the test and moved straight away using Blink.

“Blink! Blink! Blink!”

Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop

When I moved using Blink, the vampires also used teleport toward me.

By teleporting only three times, more than 100 vampires gathered in my attack range.

When more than 100 vampires gathered, I opened my mouth right away.

“Blizzard!”

Instead of using Ice Field or Thin Ice, which was my standard way of starting the fight, I used only Blizzard first because unlike before, I was wearing the +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword, and more importantly, they weren’t the giant monsters in the Giant’s Tomb.

In other words, because they were a wizard-type monster, their health was inevitably low.

Of course, their magic defense was relatively high, but I was still confident in killing them.

And things unfolded as I expected.

“Kheeeek!”

“Kuhhuk!”

“Keeeek!”

Numerous vampires collapsed helplessly.

They kept attacking me and tried to suck my blood as they were dying.

However, it seemed that even the health they drained through sucking my blood couldn’t save them from my attack, so they collapsed within moments.

I killed more than 100 vampires in an instant.

At that moment, a message rang.

[You have leveled up. ]

“Wow! This really is a bonanza!”

I exclaimed before I knew it because I was so happy.

This was the ideal hunting ground for me.

Of course, the 5% additional EXP and the additional 100% EXP gemstone I earned from the 4th anniversary event also played a big role in my successful hunting here.

At the Cunning Vampire Garrison.

“Blink! Blink! Blink!”

Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!

Wherever I moved using Blink, the cunning vampires also followed me using teleport.

And when more than 100 vampires gathered, I opened my mouth quietly.

“Ice Field! Multiple Thin Ice!”

Pasasasak!

Level 9 Blizzard did not need Ice Field or Thin Ice.

Just one strike with that skill was enough.

However, my other skills could not do this. Aside from the damage it provided, making the area around me an ice terrain increased my attack power considerably, so I laid down Ice Field and Thin ice.

And I used a different AoE skill instead of Blizzard, whose cooldown had not yet returned.

“Pouring Hail! Ice Storm!”

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter.

Puck! Puck! Puck!

“Kook!”

“Kheeek!”

“Blood Suck!”

“Blood Explosion.”

“Blood Suck!”

The cunning vampires screamed at my attack, but as if to show this place was level 1200 for a reason, they desperately struggled by using various skills.

In particular, they intensively used the blood sucking skill to recover by draining their opponent’s health.

But they collapsed one by one without holding out for long.

Watching them falling, I shouted for joy because this was the hunting ground I dreamed of.

The discovery of this kind of hunting ground made for me to hunt in was like a heavenly revelation, as if I should reach level 1200 as soon as possible.

But before reaching level 1200, something great happened to me.

“Confirm my reality actualization rate.”

[This is Lumen, Asirante’s reality actualization rate.

-21/100.

-Coins are required for a higher rate of actualization.

-Currently, Lumen, Asirante is using reality actualization as a preview.

-It is impossible to have a higher reality actualization than the current highest reality actualization achieved by a player who has reached level 1200.]

Until now my actualization rate did not move beyond 7%.

And for me, who had to use the preview, I had no choice but to maintain 7% all this time, despite having more than 100,000 coins because of the restriction that I could not exceed those with the highest actualization rate.

However, as I had done before, I tried to increase my actualization rate yesterday, and it increased from 7% to 8%, the first increase in a long time.

So, I used my coins unhesitatingly hoping that I could increase it some more, and my actualization rate kept going up until it reached as high as 21%.

This means that the guild leader of a huge guild enough to represent his region or his direct descent has achieved level 1200. Otherwise, it seemed impossible for me to increase the actualization rate to 21% at once, given that the number of coins required to increase by 1% increased by 1000 for every 10% band. Besides, coins were by no means common.

Of course, I didn’t like the fact that there were others who also increased the actualization rate as much as I did, but I felt satisfied about my 21% actualization rate in a situation where a group of monsters had appeared in reality.

Because of this increase, the skills I could use in reality also increased. Of course, it is needless to say that the power of those skills increased as well.

As a matter of fact, when I reached exactly 20% of actualization rate, another message rang.

[Congratulations! You have achieved a 20% reality actualization rate.

-You can manifest general-grade items in reality by using coins.

-Items actualized in reality can be transferred to others and used by anyone as long as they are not bound by restrictions.]

The ability to actualize the lowest general grade items into reality. Of course, it wasn’t free. It required an enormous amount of coins.

Whatever the reason, the fact that items with special abilities could be actualized into reality was tremendous. Moreover, even ordinary people can use it.

Anyway, it was true that I had still a huge number of coins even after achieving a 21% actualization rate, but I didn’t have to actualize the general grade items into reality right now, so I just focused on hunting because this was the best hunting ground for me.

It’s been exactly a week since I started hunting in this Cunning Vampire Garrison.

Suddenly, a message rang.

[The Cunning Vampires have recognized Lumen, Asirante, as.a predator.

-The Cunning Vampires will not preemptively attack Lumen, Asirante.]

[Over time, the predator status gradually diminishes until it is fully faded away.

-The predator status can be released much faster by hunting other monsters.]

A change happened as soon as the message appeared.

Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!

The Cunning Vampires who before teleported to me were running away.

“What the heck is this?”

Including the three Closed Betas, Revival Legend and all the other games that I have played until now, this was the first time that I watched the monsters fleeing from me like this.
