Sword Pilgrim-Chapter 243

Episode 243

『Pilgrim’s Road』

Firewood A hit game that has been in development for over 10 years has been released.

When it was officially released after an open beta, people were naturally enthusiastic.

Unlike normal games, it was the first virtual reality game endowed with extreme realism.

As soon as it was released, Pilgrim’s Road sold like hot cakes, and capsules that would increase the level of immersion in the game were in short supply despite their high price.

high quality. The pilgrim’s path, with the motif of a somewhat antique pilgrim, lit a fire in the hearts of men who were complacent in the peacefulness and boredom of modern society.

A pilgrim carrying a weapon and going on a pilgrimage.

The unique charm of calling out to the God of Arms and turning the defeated into your own weapon has never been seen in any other game.

The part emphasized by the development team also captivated the hearts of gamers.

[The world in the pilgrim’s path is a real living world.]

All NPCs have artificial intelligence that is no different from humans.

They actually think and live with different values and selves.

That was pretty attractive.

The Pilgrim’s Road had a very high degree of freedom, and it was also a game where anything was allowed.

As soon as it was released, people were enthusiastic, and the number of simultaneous users was spread all over the world with an enormous number of 10 million.

“Where did you start?”

“Of course it’s a sword! Aren’t men swords? Haven’t you seen the PV video? Who was that dark-haired aristocrat? You are so fucking cool.”

“Hey Carpe dude. Was it Colliers? Besides that person, Queen Carpe is also very pretty. So I started with a sword.”

“I started with a sword because the dragon knight Brans was so cool, right?”

“what? he’s a connoisseur Not a sword.”

“Oh really?”

“Hey, are you ignoring the window? Didn’t you learn that the best weapon is a spear?”

“What are you sick of? A man is a shield!”

Users who started with different weapons left for the battlefield with their own weapons in their country.

Some started at training centers in each country and built the foundation, while others went to monasteries to become pilgrims.

But most of them went to the battlefield for quick pleasure and experience.

They evoked a continental wave.

continent terra.

The people of Terra called them messengers of the gods, or players.

Because even if they died, they didn’t die.

Because there was no other way to kill them than to make them into weapons.

Click.

Callius, who had been grooming and caressing the sword for a long time, soldered the sword.

I was deep in thought listening to the story of a man kneeling by a campfire.

“I am not such a bad person as someone called by God!”

The man’s name was Saber.

As the name suggests, he was the one who chose the sword.

“Why did you choose the sword?”

“When I first started, they told me about the circumstances of each country and weapon… Carpe is small and difficult now, but geographically it is safe and has great potential.”

at the time of start.

center of the pilgrim’s path.

Users knew that the Dragon Demon War was taking place in the empire.

They are forced to choose.

Is it close to the danger or a little far away.

A man named Saber chose the latter, believing in the potential of the sword and choosing to grow slowly.

“And to be honest, I picked Queen Carpe because she was so pretty.”

“…I get it.”

Colius held back his life.

“Are you not killing me?”

“Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t die even if you killed me?”

Players don’t die when killed.

After a certain amount of time, it comes back to life.

It is exactly the character in the game.

An inexplicable feeling of doubt came over him.

“That’s true, but once you die, your experience and items drop and you can’t even come in for a day. And if you become a corpse, your account will be deleted and you will have to dig a new character.”

As if he didn’t want to hear any more, Colius waved his hand and issued a congratulatory order.

However, Saber was hesitant for some reason, but it was absurd to know the reason.

“Can’t you give me a quest or something?”

“what?”

“Oh no. That… I was wondering if you would ask me to do something or something like that… haha.”

“does not exist. go away.”

The author clearly judged himself as an NPC and requested a quest.

Wake up juseomjuseom and say.

“Is it because I don’t have good feelings?”

muttered and left.

Callius was dazed for a while and couldn’t get up from his seat.

I just stared blankly at the bonfire lighting up the night and the stars in the sky.

Without giving her time to cherish her daughter’s pain intact.

The world has changed in an instant.

when he is in agony

A voice was heard after a long time.

[It’s obvious why the gods did that.]

It was Stella.

[They said they were in a hurry too.]

“Is that so?”

[Otherwise, I wouldn’t intentionally create followers like that. If you increase the confusion, those who shouldn’t appear will appear and those who have been hiding will come out.]

“What is the purpose of the gods?”

[You know that.]

Callius closed his eyes.

With the appearance of users, he became a character in the game in an instant.

However, he did not consider this place to be a simple game.

Rather, they are being used.

“Delete your account….”

When you become a corpse, your account is deleted.

it means death

Even if you become a game character, if you become a corpse, you will never come back to life.

This is because it becomes a weapon.

God must have called them in hopes of an advantage.

To the god, the number of believers is a good number to increase strength, and their deaths are also good nourishment for the god.

It’s just confusing.

Is this God’s will? Or, I wonder if it was the will of the game company.

“It’s dizzy.”

Are Shin and the management team together?

Or are they other beings?

‘I thought the purpose of the gods was just to tear down the wall.’

Who would have known that that bastard’s wall was real? And this world is a game.

I didn’t know it would have such an outcome.

I didn’t know that this could be possible.

Colliers was frankly causing a lot of agitation about this.

just meet god

If the story didn’t go well, I wanted to find out if there was a way to defeat God and return to the original world.

I felt like I would feel refreshed if I knew why I had to come here.

But right now.

A large number of players appeared.

After hearing the story, it is said that the game has been released and is in operation in the real world.

If so, wouldn’t there be a way for you to return to your original world?

It was also something that made the method that was opaque come to have its own certainty.

It has been 5 or 6 years since I started working here. Now, what were you originally?

I wasn’t sure if it was real or a dream.

“Whether it’s a game or not, there’s something.”

My head is very complicated, but the work to do has not changed.

He digs it up and regains his original daily life.

First of all, that’s all.

“stellar.”

[Say.]

“How did you access the system and hand over your shard as a quest reward?”

In the meantime, I didn’t ask because I thought it wouldn’t mean much even if I heard it.

But now I had to know.

have their own world

There was a world that I was originally in, and the game I made was even released.

But wasn’t he confined here and became a Colius?

I wanted to know the reason for that.

And the secrets of this world too.

I had to know.

[Because we fought knowing that we would lose.]

“What are you talking about?”

[I knew that if I challenged God, I would be defeated. So I left a little fragment of me behind. There is only one reason it went to you.]

“Did you fight even though you knew you would lose?”

[huh. At that time, before fighting the Sword God, I left a fragment in a place like a lake. The gods always look down on the world that way.]

“Why did that come to me?”

silver sword.

[Because you’ve learned what I’ve hidden.]

That’s not an accurate answer. But I guess I know what you mean.

‘Stella doesn’t seem to know much about the systemic part.’

I guess I’ll have to come back to this part later.

What he has is a fragment.

Not the original Stellar.

just a small fragment

‘Perhaps the original is in the hands of God. If it’s not that, I’ve eaten it.’

So, what should Colliers do now?

What should I do?

What should I move for?

He couldn’t help but worry.

This is because the concept of the world itself has been changed by a series of events.

“stellar.”

[Yes.]

“What must I do to become a god?”

[I should gather followers.]

The players fell from the sky.

It was in the form of a weapon, but it changed into a person and fell down.

but none of them.

‘There is no sheath.’

It’s also the reason why he’s not a perfect god, but maybe that’s not the only reason.

Tens of millions of users en masse infiltrated the world. The power of the gods will become stronger and stronger.

The number of users will gradually increase, the dead accounts will die, and new accounts will appear, usually repeating the same thing.

The more that happens, the more the power of God will increase.

‘I can’t just leave it alone.’

at this time

There is only one thing Colius can do.

intercepting them.

making yourself known.

‘A guy named Saber did that.’

The main names were shown in the PV video, and there was also Colius in it.

“First of all…”

Callius rose from his seat.

I have someone I need to meet.

“Where are you going?”

When Fatalite asked, he answered.

“To the Empire.”

the saintess there.

“I need to meet Ailena Junice.”

They are also challengers.

Originally, he was a person who lived in the same modern society as himself. I was curious to see how they would react.

‘I don’t know if I can talk now.’

That he was also a person who had the same current life as them.

* * *

Same time.

dragon and horse And in the middle of the empire where the three-way war between humans is taking place.

There were those waving swords and spears with the apostles.

“Saintess, take me!!”

“Junis, please swear at me just once!”

“prize! Reward!!”

I don’t care about war.

There were only players who were passionately interested in the saints.

“Dog fuckers don’t get out of here right now!!”

Junice spat out curses, and the more they did, the more they went wild.

“Junis-nim’s fan club! I am a Penny S member! Please shake my hand just once!”

Junice immediately kicked him.

“Hey! prize!”

The user who died instantly with one kick from her disappeared after a while.

“…they don’t seem interested in war.”

Saint Ailee, who looked at the situation miserably, was no different.

“Wow, so pretty. Is this a saint?”

“Please be my bride!”

“Take me! Whoop!”

“Hehe, let’s go for a good impression!”

All sorts of sexual harassment afflicted the saints.

They were ridiculous, but they had no choice but to grit their teeth and put up with it.

Because the war has begun.

After the dragon and the horse, the apostle. In addition, there are now players who do not die until they are made into corpses.

In a war that is confusing in many ways.

There were also players who grew up eating experience points like bean sprouts.

They were called rankers.

Some of them have been able to keep close to the saints.

of course.

It didn’t lead to anything good.

hook!!

The player who stabbed the back of the person he was fighting with smiled.

“Cuck! Why me…!”

“Oh sorry. I need a better sword.”

The presence of players is a blessing from God.

It was a disaster at the same time.

All kinds of ugly and dirty things happened simultaneously.

Many die and repeat killing.

The continent was being buried in great chaos.

There was no one to stop it.

“It’s a piece of shit.”

Except for one person.

Callius, who led the dragon, shouted toward the battlefield where players were rampaging.

“Break your breath.”

Fifteen ironclad dragons emitted gray breaths at once.

immediately.

[Uoooooooooooo!!]

The gray army appeared and ran across the battlefield.

It was a time of brutal slaughter.
