The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 174

Suddenly, a fire fell from the sky, causing chaos among the 500 players.

"What, what is this?!"

"Quick, block it! Barrier!"

"What should the warriors do?"

Perhaps because the team was hastily formed, their coordination was completely off.

Before they could even assume a defensive stance, the players were swept up by the flames.

"This won't do."

Sung JiHan quickly planted his phoenix flag on the ground, granting the team the "Blessing of the Phoenix" buff, and leaped up with his dark eclipse sword.

Nameless Divine Art.

Shadowy Divine Technique.

Dark Soul Whirlpool.

As the eclipse transformed into a massive black vortex, it absorbed the flames.

Relief washed over the players' faces.

As expected of Sung JiHan.

When they were on the same side, he was the most reliable player.

However...

"Hey, what's coming from the side?"

Swish! Swish!

Accompanied by the sound of the wind splitting, giant creatures descended from the sky one by one.

"That, is that... a dragon?"

"But it's not that big, is it?"

Ten creatures in the form of winged lizards, resembling dragons.

Surrounding them from all sides, they opened their mouths simultaneously.

And then, another wave of fire breath poured out.

Unlike before, Sung JiHan found it difficult to block, as it came from all angles with precision.

"Aaah!"

"The barrier... it broke!"

With the ten breath attacks, the player team crumbled from the outskirts.

"I can't block them at all."

Breath attacks.

Although they were powerful, the initial impact from falling from the sky was overwhelmingly strong.

Compared to the first attack Sung JiHan blocked, the ten breath attacks were weak.

But the players, who were not in sync, were thrown into disarray and half of them were wiped out.

"I have to save whoever's left."

Sung JiHan reduced the absorption ability of the Dark Soul Whirlpool and instead expanded its size.

Then, the flames that were pouring down on the outskirts were all sucked into the black whirlpool.

"One of them is quite annoying."

"One, the rest are still at the level of bugs."

"But we're still hatchlings, so we don't need to take risks. Let's retreat."

"Understood."

Powerful voices from all directions were automatically translated into each person's language and echoed in their ears.

And then...

Swish! Swish!

The ten young dragonkin who had been shooting breath attacks from all sides...

Suddenly flew up into the sky and disappeared.

They effortlessly eliminated more than half of the human forces and disappeared without a trace, taking advantage of their flying race's characteristics.

But...

"Where do they think they're going?"

Sung JiHan didn't just let them go.

He pulled out the phoenix flag from the ground and threw his spear into the sky.

Nameless Divine Art.

Heavenly Thunder Divine Technique.

Divine Judgment.

A massive hole was torn open in the sky.

A powerful beam of light, crackling with lightning, struck the fleeing group of dragonkin.

"Absolute Barrier!"

"Disperse!"

The translation of the powerful voices could be heard from all directions.

Aaaah!

Although the Haecheoling 10 were using powerful defensive magic urgently,

they couldn't completely block the Heavenly Judgment, and two of them melted away while still stuck on the spear.

-Oh...

-As expected, he did it all by himself.

-At this rate, aren't the remaining humans just baggage?

-For real, if we had just let the Haecheoling group chase after them, they would have caught them all.

The viewers exclaimed in admiration at his one-shot, one-kill, but

"Only two...?"

Sung JiHan himself felt disappointed that he had only managed to kill two.

The Absolute Barrier wasn't completely useless; it had managed to block the electricity that was being emitted around the spear,

minimizing the damage to just two.

"Dragons are indeed strong."

In the Space League, the planet of the dragons was in the top ranks.

Their species itself had far superior specs compared to the elves, but

strangely, their record against the World Tree Union was not good, and they always ranked 6th.

Of course, they were overwhelmingly dominant in battles against planets other than the World Tree Union.

"Earth has never won against them."

Humanity was always miserably defeated by the breath.

This time, the result had to be different.

Sung JiHan made up his mind.

"Scoreboard."

He opened the scoreboard.

1st - NO.259 Blue Dragons - Kill Points 9243

2nd - NO.796 ?? - Kill Points 4451

...

9th - NO.4121 ?? - Kill Points 1130

10th - NO.4212 Humanity - Kill Points 100

The unknown species appeared as "?" for those not encountered.

Below 10th place, there was no ranking on the scoreboard.

In the end, humanity was in last place.

"Why do we only have 100 points...?"

"Ah, wasn't it because Sung JiHan killed two dragons? So it was measured as 50 points each, right?"

"Well, it doesn't make sense to exchange points with them at a 1:1 ratio."

"Wow, but what about the 9000 kills...? Are they here, those guys?"

The surviving players followed Sung JiHan and opened the scoreboard, discussing among themselves.

"There were a total of ten dragon groups. If we assume that each species is summoned with 500 points per individual..."

"That's right. But then, even if we add up the points from 1st to 10th place, it's only 5000 points... How did the dragons have over 10,000 kill points?"

While people were analyzing the new map like that, changes occurred on the scoreboard.

"Oh! NO.4121, who was above us, disappeared."

"And right below, a new team from a new planet was added."

"Ah, so it keeps changing like this..."

The battlefield of chaos, where the eliminated team was immediately replaced by a new team.

While people were trying to understand the structure of the rotating map,

[Rehearsal Entry Celebration, Special Mission.]

[Conquer the Battlefield of Chaos!]

[If you achieve 10,000 kill points, the entire species will receive a growth bonus for 5 years.]

[If you achieve 10,000 points, participating players in the rehearsal will receive +7 stat points, and the species MVP will receive a special individual reward.]

[Clear the mission before the tutorial ends!]

A special mission appeared for all players.

"Oh, they're giving us a mission too..."

"Growth bonus and stat points..."

"The rewards are amazing!"

Players who were sensitive to stat points 1 and 2.

But to give them all +7 remaining points...

People couldn't help but be amazed.

"But how do we get 10,000 points...?"

"The dragons had 9,000 points earlier."

However, the conditions were extremely difficult.

10,000 points.

It was a number that could only be achieved by killing 200 Haecheoling.

"How many of us survived?"

"I think it's around 150 people..."

As humanity, more than half of us disappeared with just one collision.

10,000 points was a number that we couldn't dare to be greedy for.

But still, it was disappointing that we didn't get an additional stat +7.

"But we have Sung JiHan, so..."

"Even if Sung JiHan survives alone, wouldn't it be worth 10,000 points?"

"That's right. This place is where only Platinum is summoned, after all."

Among the survivors, the talk of trusting only Sung JiHan started to spread.

-Wow, we should ask for help, 500 people are trying to ride the bus together lol

-Sung JiHan suffered as a bus driver in the national team, and now here too ㅠㅠ

At first, the viewers were dumbfounded by the players' stories.

-But even if they're here, will they be helpful...?

-For real, it might be better for now if all 499 people die and Sung JiHan plays solo.

Realistically, the talk of whether they needed them or not started to spread.

"To be honest, it would be more comfortable without them."

The mismatched players who were hastily put together.

Rather than fighting in the chaos battlefield with such a mismatched team, it would be much more comfortable to just die and play solo.

Moreover, the score might be better if they fought in this state.

But...

"The chaos battlefield I know has a system where if the number of survivors falls below 10 percent, they are expelled."

The unique characteristic of the chaos battlefield map made it impossible to play solo.

When I played this map in my previous life, no matter how hard I tried to survive alone...

If the number of survivors of the species fell below 10 percent, the species itself was forcibly expelled.

I don't know how the rehearsal will differ from the official map.

But I didn't think that penalty would be completely absent.

"For now, let's try to work together as much as possible. Don't rely too much on me."

"Ah, understood!"

"Yes! We should also be helpful!"

Upon Sung JiHan's words, the survivors prepared for battle once again.

"Supporters, raise your hands!"

"Warriors, come here!"

"Archers, gather here!"

They formed their formations and tried to figure out how to survive in this chaos battlefield.

"Summon Brain Cloud."

While the players were preparing, Sung JiHan rode the brain cloud and scouted the surroundings from above.

A black land stretching out without anything.

But when humanity had formed a certain formation...

Kururur...!

One side of the eastern land shook and collapsed.

"Krrrr...!"

From within, a chimera emerged, with the fusion of various animal bodies.

"Normal monster army that appears in the chaos battlefield."

The easiest and easiest to gain points in the chaos battlefield, chaos monsters.

Sung JiHan informed the people of the enemy's invasion.

"Chimeras are coming from the east. Let's respond."

"Yes!"

Then, a player unit headed towards the eastern formation with skillful movements.

Since they were at the level of Platinum, it seemed like they had entered the realm of professionals.

They quickly overcame the initial confusion and moved confidently.

"Not bad."

With this, they wouldn't be easily wiped out.

"I will land in the middle of the enemy first, so please take care of the emerging enemies."

"Understood!"

"We'll do our best!"

With the sound of shuuuu, Sung JiHan descended to the ground like a meteor.

With a crackling sound, electricity spread across the ground.

"Kieeeek...!"

All the chimeras burned.

Now, he was almost officially recognized as the second-ranked warrior in the world.

In the battlefield where Pleitene is participating, he was taking down enemies as usual.

When Eclipse drew a line.

Chiiiiing!

The bodies of the Chimeras were torn apart simultaneously.

When the Bonghwanggi was planted on the ground, a red current enveloped the earth.

Sung JiHan, who was fully demonstrating the skills of the One-Man Army.

- As expected, the game is so fun, lol.

- It feels so refreshing.

- If you watch while having a beer, all your stress will be relieved, lol.

- The Chimeras barely even come out. How many tens of them are there?

- Yeah, he'll definitely stop them.

The viewers felt catharsis from Sung JiHan's power that they haven't seen in a long time.

They didn't pay much attention to the monsters that were slightly coming out.

The Chimeras being easily slaughtered by Sung JiHan.

Even if those small fries managed to escape, can't the Platinum guys stop them?

However.

"What, what is this...!"

"The barrier is broken!"

"Why is it so strong?"

The small fries were no match for Sung JiHan.

"Kuuk...!"

A warrior whose shield flew away from the Chimera's punch.

Even though the support's defense buff was stacked, they couldn't handle the Chimera's attack.

"The arrows aren't sticking...!"

"It's aiming for the eyes!"

"I shot it in the eye, but the arrow bounced off!"

"What kind of crazy monsters are there?!"

Sung JiHan made it look so easy to slaughter the Chimeras, so they seemed easy.

But when they actually opened the lid, it wasn't a joke.

The attacks didn't work, and the warriors were either flying away or turning into minced meat with a single punch.

The formation that Pleitene had gathered was collapsing in an instant.

"No...!"

Sung JiHan lost his words as he looked back.

It's strange.

These small fries are getting beaten.

In the past Space League, everyone was happy when they encountered Chimeras because it was an opportunity to earn points.

Sung JiHan realized what the problem was as he saw the human team crumbling with eyes that said they were helpless.

'...There are too many low-level players.'

The level range of Platinum is from 100 to 200.

Perhaps because they were matched as a party, the level range was all over the place.

On the other hand, the Chimeras had to be at least level 180 to be considered worthy opponents.

At the low-level stage, the Chimeras were no different from boss monsters.

Before Sung JiHan could help, there were less than 50 members left in the human team.

[The survival rate of the team has dropped below 10%.]

[You will be expelled from the map in 15 minutes.]

They were given a definite expulsion sentence.

But maybe because it was a rehearsal map.

They weren't immediately expelled, and they were given 15 minutes.

'...I should be satisfied with confirming 15 minutes today.'

Now there was no need to take care of the team.

Sung JiHan raised his weapon and advanced forward.

Now that it had come to this, he thought it would be better to kill as many monsters as possible.

"Ki, kieeek...!"

"Kik, kik!"

While sweeping away the Chimeras like fallen leaves, he continued to advance.

He was able to reach even the cracks in the ground where monsters were popping out.

'The cracks are still emitting light.'

The ground's cracks that emitted a purple light and poured out monsters.

Sung JiHan, who was planning to settle down here and kill monsters to end the game.

[The Rift of Chaos has been discovered.]

[The Epic Quest has been unlocked.]

He widened his eyes at the sudden message.
