Closed Beta That Only I Played-Chapter 379 - Yum Yum (1)

In Irevulich Island in Russia’s Arctic Ocean.

Matthias, who made Myongjin Shelter the ‘Land That Summons Monsters’, flew straight from Barcelona, Spain to Russia at the order of the leader of the Lucia Guild to which he belonged. And the first thing Matthias heard was the voice of the guild leader who sounded very happy.

“Hahahahaha! Great job! According to the latest information, Asirante spends playing Revival Legend for less than 6 hours a day these days.”

“Oh, that’s good to hear!”

It was certainly not bad for Matthias himself that the ridiculously powerful Asirante’s growth was restricted, but it was done at someone else’s instigation. That’s why Matthias spoke bluntly, but Lucia Guild’s leader didn’t respond to him because Matthias had already done everything required.

At that moment, the Lucia Guild leader opened his mouth while mentioning something else.

“By the way, the Land that Summons Monsters is more powerful than I expected. I’ve underestimated it for so long.”

“…”

Mathias didn’t say anything this time as he also underestimated the events this time.

In other words, the monster appearances at the Myongjin Shelter clearly exceeded his expectations for the number of monsters, the frequency of their appearance, and their strength , the number of their appearances at a time, and their strength. But Matthias kept his mouth shut because he didn’t have to mention it here.

Then the Lucia Guild leader said, “Well, since we have already cornered Asirante, that’s enough. They probably won’t give up on the Myongjin Shelter easily. They invested enormous resources into building that shelter, and finding a new home for hundreds of thousands of people is no easy task. So leave them alone a little longer, so Asirante can’t go to sleep worrying about it so much.”

“Sure.”

Matthias replied like that, then shut his mouth. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

At the Myongjin Shelter in Gangwon Province five days later.

Matthias carefully moved to the vicinity of the Myongjin Shelter because what happened here was obviously beyond what he expected. In other words, as many as 1000 powerful monsters should not have appeared frequently early on like this.

Of course, Matthias had doubts about it a long time ago, but he was patient enough not to ask why until now because things were going on as he expected.

However, as the days went by, their frequent appearances in groups were way beyond his predictions, so he had no choice but to move to Gangwon Province where the Myongjin Shelter was located.

After he arrived at the place where he could see the Myongjin Shelter, which seemed to be in chaos, he put his hand on the ground and carefully opened his mouth.

“Come back to me!”

[…] 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

Matthias waited a little at first. But as there was no response after a few minutes passed, he broke into a cold sweat before he knew it.

He opened his mouth again.

“Come back to me! Ancient Monster Summoning Energy!”

[…]

A few more minutes passed, but there was no response.

Only then did Matthias know that even though he didn’t know the exact reason, everything was messed up.

***

It has been about two months since the monsters started appearing frequently in the Myongjin Shelter.

Shuuuuuuuuuuung Shuuuuuuung Shuuuuuuuuuuuung

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

Monsters still came pouring out from all directions endlessly, so the roots immediately attacked. Generally speaking, the monsters were knocked down with the roots’ single attack that pierced them like a stick.

But it has been about two months since the monsters started appearing. As a result, the monsters became stronger to the extent that they could withstand the root’s initial attacks. Sometimes they even tried to counterattack the roots.

Whenever I noticed them, I immediately broke into them using Blink with zero cooldown.

Then I shouted, “Blizzard!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

[Kheeeeeeeeeeek!]

[Khuuuuuuuuuuuk!]

Of course, if I didn’t have to intervene, it would take the roots a little longer to get rid of them, but in the end the roots would prevail anyway, as always.

But right now the roots had a lot of work to do because they were protecting the whole Myongjin Shelter.

So, while I was waiting in the middle of the shelter, I immediately intervened and got rid of those monsters quickly that tried to resist the roots’ attack.

After that, I went straight back to the middle of Myongjin Shelter and looked everywhere.

While I was absorbed into it, I let out a sigh before I knew it.

“Whew…”

The reason I sighed like that was because I didn’t know when I could stop them.

So much so that I thought hard about the possibility of abandoning the shelter here and moving somewhere else.

I felt that more stronger monsters would appear in the days ahead, and that at some point even the roots would not be able to get rid of them. When that happened, it would be impossible for me to defend the Myongjin Shelter even if I had Blink with zero cooldown.

As a matter of fact, I already began to see some evidence of that.

But we also had another problem with the relocation of the Myongjin Shelter.

“Even if we moved the shelter, there is no guarantee that the monsters won’t appear at the new location.”

Above all, these monsters appeared only in the Myongjin Shelter alone.

So, it was highly likely that they would also appear in the new location of the shelter.

As long as the guy who was responsible for this didn’t reveal himself, we would suffer the same damage as we did now. In other words, we were in a very troublesome situation.

When I was letting out a deep sigh like that, I heard a message from my sister through the earphones I was wearing. Her message was very urgent.

[Juyoung, where are you now?]

“Me? I am at the usual place where I always am.”

Unlike her sister, who talked to me urgently, I responded as quietly as possible.

Since she was so nervous and worried, I didn’t have to show the same reaction.

[Come down to the small meeting room now!]

“Why?”

[That guy is here!]

“Who has come?”

I was in the middle of the Myongjin Shelter, so it was impossible for me to identify each person entering the shelter, but I could still make a guess.

But to the best of my memory, I could not recall anyone who could cause her to sound so agitated.

However, I had no choice but to move immediately after she responded to my question because that guy had finally come.

[The guy who said he made the Myongjin Shelter the Land That Summons Monsters! He’s here!]

Of course, that guy might be a fake, but there was almost zero possibility that he was a fake, for no one was foolish enough to lie at the risk of his life.

In Barcelona, Spain at that time.

“Damn it! Damn it!”

Bang! Bang!

Mathias slammed the table, swearing over and over again.

No wonder he got so upset because he went to the Myongjin Shelter several times and tried to destroy the ‘Land That Summons Monsters’ he had installed.

It’s not because he felt sorry for Asirante or the Myongjin Shelter, but because he wanted to recover his trait ‘Ancient Monster Summoning Energy’ because that was the source of his strength. If he lost his trait, he would just be a nobody
