How a Calamity Necromancer Retires - How a Calamity Necromancer Retires chapter 126

“What happened?”

PMT has been making a lot of money by deliberately losing consecutively in Phase 1 of Meat Golem.

However, after the last money was delivered, the broker who gave them orders suddenly disappeared.

Embarrassed, Kang In-hyeok and PMT tried to keep in touch, but the broker was unable to reach them. In the end, PMT, who entered the game without receiving any orders, had no choice but to lose narrowly to Meat Golem as usual. There was no contact.

“You still can’t reach me?”

Kang In-hyeok nodded and said at the words of his anxious colleague.

“uh.”

“Hey, didn’t you get caught? Then we will be in danger too?”

Then Kang In-hyeok shook his head and said.

“That won’t be it. If it’s really caught, there’s no way they’ll leave us like this.”

“is it?”

“Besides, don’t be too anxious. I said it back then, but isn’t this a nationally recognized game? In tournaments hosted by private companies, match fixing must be caught and fined to disqualify players, just like famous game pro gamers did in the past.”

This was one of the biggest reasons PMT, including Kang In-hyuk, accepted match fixing.

Punishment for match fixing in private competitions hosted by private companies is nothing more than a cotton bat.

“Yeah, right? Whoa. Glad then.”

At first, he succeeded in calming his colleague’s anxiety, but in the end, the problem now was that he could not get in touch with the broker.

Kang In-hyuk bit his lip and said.

“It’s not enough yet.”

At best, if they even manipulated the match illegally, they should pull and eat as much as possible until they get caught.

That’s when Kang In-hyeok was in trouble.

Wing~!

Kang In-hyeok’s cell phone rings and a phone number he has never seen before appears on the screen.

“hello.”

When Kang In-hyeok answered the phone, the other person spoke in a calm voice.

-Are you Kang In-hyuk?

“yes. you’re right.”

– I have contacted you because I have something important to offer you. Can I meet you for a moment?

* * *

“… Match fixing?”

“yes.”

Hearing that he had an important proposal, the man he met bluntly suggested that they fix the match.

‘He’s not the original broker.’

If the original broker had sent it, he would have given instructions on how to play the next game, not match fixing.

‘What do we do.’

It’s not the broker you’ve been waiting for, but it’s certainly welcome that another broker contacted you.

Kang In-hyeok needs more money.

But the question was, could you trust him?

‘They said that if the tail is long, it will be stepped on. It’s better to continue with only one side if possible. Besides, you don’t even know if this guy is a real broker. It could be someone sent to find evidence of match fixing.’

In the end, Kang In-hyeok, who couldn’t trust the man he had never seen before, spoke.

“I don’t do match fixing.”

The man said, widening his eyes.

“Are you sure?”

“yes. As the leader of the PMT, unfair practices such as match fixing are absolutely… … .”

But then.

“Puhahahaha.”

The man suddenly burst out laughing and said:

“Oh, sorry about this. It seems that the prior explanation was too insufficient.”

“What are you talking about?”

The man said with a relaxed expression.

“Can’t get in touch with your broker?”

“Uh, what is that… … ?”

“That’s because we kicked them out. Of course, I am well aware that they and the PMT were match-fixing. But suddenly, I burst into laughter without realizing it.”

“ah… … .”

Kang In-hyuk finally understood the situation.

The old broker was out of touch because he was kicked out by a new match-fixing organization.

“Anyway, I’m sure you’ll accept the offer. You have to make money.”

At those words, Kang In-hyeok was silent.

“… If you accept, how much money will you give me?”

“As per our instructions, 3,000 per player whenever the match results come out.”

At those words, Kang In-hyeok said with an absurd expression.

“Only 3,000?”

“why. Is it too little?”

“The previous broker gave me 100 million won, but only 3,000! It’s a risk, but at least it’s too little!”

Then the man smiled and said.

“Then, today is the end of your career as a player, would you mind?”

“yes?”

“Anyway, the match-fixing we’ve done so far wasn’t done with other guys. We have nothing to do with this. I must have already secured the evidence, but if I hand it over to the prosecution, my qualifications as a player will be suspended and I will have to vomit the money I have been eating… … .”

Kang In-hyeok, who was at a loss for words at the man’s threat, spoke.

“Ha, but… … .”

“There is no but. There are only two choices. Are you going to work with us while earning even 3,000, or are you going to be investigated by the prosecution?”

‘sh*t!’

Kang In-hyeok realized that he was completely caught in a single shot.

‘I have no choice but to do this!’

Although the money is small, it is much better than being taken to the prosecution right now and completely deprived of the opportunity to earn money.

After deciding that he had no choice but to accept the offer, Kang In-hyeok began to shake his head quickly.

To earn more money, even if it’s just a penny.

“I will accept your offer.”

“hahahaha. Well thought out.”

“Instead, there are conditions.”

“condition? Kang In-hyeok doesn’t seem to be in a position to set conditions right now.”

“There will be nothing to lose. Are you saying you’re giving 3,000 to everyone on the team, including me?”

“By the way.”

“Then why don’t you just give each team member 2,500 and give the difference to me? If you do, I will keep the team in check and make sure there is no noise.”

At those words, the man who opened his eyes wide and looked at Kang In-hyeok for a long time burst into laughter and said,

“hahahahaha! Kang In-hyuk, you were an interesting person, right? You have a lot of greed.”

“I should earn a little more while I can.”

“great. I will do that for you.”

At those words, Kang In-hyeok smiled brightly and said.

“thank you!”

Even if you steal 5 million won from each team member’s share, you will be able to get the same amount of money as the money you received before.

“Let’s do well, Kang In-hyuk.”

“All right! Trust us and we will not disappoint you!”

* * *

The operation was simple.

Just like them, putting Koreans as brokers, mixing foreigners brought from Venezuela with some Koreans behind them, making it look like an international organization is working secretly, and then waiting for them.

That’s how I stabbed Kang In-hyeok with money and made him lose consecutive games in the league and waited for them… … .

“Are you still not in touch?”

I’m already monitoring the every move of all the team members, including Kang In-hyuk, but I can’t see any movement from them to reconnect.

“yes. Not yet. Since they are so cautious, I wonder if they are examining the situation.”

“Then it’s fortunate, but if you completely give up and go to sleep, it’s difficult.”

hmm.

After thinking about it for a while, I said to Park In-gwi.

“They did the match fixing to make money from illegal gambling, right?”

“you’re right.”

“Then wouldn’t the poison rise if you deal damage? If you suffer financial damage due to some unexpected result, you won’t notice something strange right away because you’re the ones who have been fixing the match.”

Park In-gwi nodded and said.

“Perhaps.”

“Avoid… … .”

I said with my eyes shining.

“Shall we use the draw?”

Usually, there is a clear win or loss, but there was a draw in the Skeleton League.

If neither side can clearly beat the other, a draw will be decided under the judge’s judgment.

However, it is a competitive structure in which you have to beat your opponent somehow to get a victory bonus to make money, and especially in raid matches, attacking meat golems is the key, so most teams have been aggressive, so there has been only a case of a draw against meat golems so far. never had

Of course, the payout for a draw is so high that it cannot even be compared to a win or loss.

“Did you pull out a list of illegal gambling sites around the world?”

“yes. I found all the famous and old sites.”

If you can’t identify who your opponent is, just attack them all at the same time.

“Join all of those sites and bet on a tie between PMT and Meat Golem. It’s difficult to eat and run, so the site can’t stop paying dividends, but if you do, it’s at a level where you suffer great damage.”

Park In-gwi, who understood my words, said with a smile.

“Then the organizations that run the site will suspect that someone manipulated the draw using PMT.”

“yes.”

Those who worked before that and those who didn’t will all move after realizing that someone took a huge amount of money by fixing the match with PMT.

They showed interest in who the person who stole their money was and whether they could directly manipulate the match.

Then I’ll sort them out.

“Which game shall we draw?”

“Of course it’s a meat golem. Are you still in the first phase of the PMT?”

“That’s right.”

“Everyone would have bet on a win or a loss, but if suddenly there is a draw and someone bets a lot of money on the draw and wins a lot of money, both the illegal site and the illegal gamblers will suffer a lot, right?”

Of course, those who legally bet money on Toto will also be harmed, but when such people later punish PMT players for match fixing, the Seron Group apologizes for negligence in management and compensates them financially.

“Of course.”

“good. Proceed right away, I have no business with the wallets of illegal gamblers. Make money and get revenge. Match-fixing is worth doing, right?”

* * *

“Win this time! PMT!”

“If you’re going to lose anyway, lose quickly!”

Although receiving both support and criticism from people, Kang In-hyeok’s spirit was elsewhere.

‘To draw?’

The new broker ordered Kang In-hyeok to draw.

But a draw is easier said than done.

To deliberately stage a draw that only happens once in a while.

Naturally, Kang In-hyeok tried to refuse, but the broker said.

The operation team has already recruited people, so they plant bombs on both arms of meat golems without anyone noticing, and as soon as PMT’s skeleton self-destructs nearby, they will detonate the bomb and disable both arms. Destroy the appropriate amount to create a situation in which neither the skeleton nor the meat golem can inflict critical hits on either side, and then wait.

In the end, Kang In-hyeok accepts the offer by crying and eating mustard.

‘sh*t. let’s do it! Let’s do it!’

Kang In-hyeok said to his colleague.

“Attack the right side with 4 skeletons!”

Here, the instruction to attack the right side means to intentionally lose four.

Upon hearing that, the colleagues immediately sent 4 skeletons, and sure enough, the 4 skeletons were destroyed in an instant.

‘good. Moderately damaged.’

At that time, Kang In-hyeok, who checked the remaining time, confirmed that the promised time to explode the bomb was approaching.

Kang In-hyeok started manipulating the console to do this work himself.

‘You’re going to succeed! must!’

The two self-destruct skeletons that were put in there.

The self-destructing skeletons charge into both shoulders and explode the moment the meat golem leans down to swing its arms.

coo king!

“Chur uh uh!”

At the same time, the secretly planted bomb explodes, and Kang In-hyeok succeeds in knocking off the meat golem’s shoulders and dropping its arms as planned.

“yes!”

Although it had the ability to recover, it took time, so the meat golem’s arms were sealed until the end of the match.

“Oh oh! Has the operation changed?”

“Will I win this time?!”

“By the way, was the self-destruct attack really that strong? It seems that something is much more destructive than usual?”

Kang In-hyeok left behind the crowd and operated the console to pass the time.

“Avoid for once! I’m going to avoid it as much as possible and aim for an opening!”

While the Meat Golem, whose arms were smashed, resisted by swinging its legs, the skeletons of the PMT spread out and start wasting time.

“what are you doing!”

“Finish quickly!”

Hearing the cries of such people, Kang In-hyeok thought.

‘I can’t finish it, you bastards!’

This match must end in a draw.

Kang In-hyeok looked around at the remaining skeletons and thought.

‘I think there are still too many left.’

There are currently 10 skeletons left on Kang In-hyuk’s side.

To be honest, at this level, a phase 1 meat golem without arms was enough to try.

As such, what Kang In-hyeok needs to do now is to induce a draw as naturally as possible by reducing the number of remaining skeletons.

‘How can I reduce the number of skeletons more naturally… … .’

But then.

The meat golem, which was swinging its legs, must have lost its balance due to the absence of its arms, and it must have fallen to the side and crushed two skeletons.

‘uh?’

Then, struggling to get up again, one more skeleton is smashed.

‘Oh oh! Lucky!’

I had to reduce the number of skeletons, but it was destroyed in such a natural way.

Of course, unlike Kang In-hyeok, who was so cheering, the audience was angry.

“what!?”

“What are you doing to someone who has lost both arms!”

Of course, Kang In-hyeok ignored the audience and shouted.

“At this rate, we won’t be able to deliver a critical hit because there aren’t enough of them!”

The team members nodded their heads at Kang In-hyeok’s words that if they lost a little more, they could make it a draw.

“good! Let’s do our best until the end!”

* * *

The Meat Golem, which lost both arms and could not be restored, and the PMT, which failed to properly hit due to the few remaining.

In the end, the match ended when both sides were unable to completely deal with each other and wasted time, and the referee came forward and declared a draw.

“Ahh!”

“Crazy, are you even going to a draw now?!”

Of course, the audience booed.

And I thought among those audiences.

‘It was nice to see you.’

It was also not easy to draw.

At best, both arms were incapacitated, but too many skeletons on Kang In-hyuk’s side were left behind.

So I immediately took control of the meat golem and pretended to be a coincidence to take down a few more skeletons.

That’s how the perfect draw was created by the collaboration between me and PMT.

I said to Park In-gwi, who was behind me.

“How are the sites?”

“There was an uproar on the bulletin board of an illegal gambling site, asking how a draw came out here. I wonder if the game is rigged… … .”

“There are many more questions about illegal gambling. What about our dividend?”

“The site with the lowest payout was also 21x. Famous sites in Europe were 26 times as many.”

The amount I bet per site varies by site size, but averages in the billions.

In that case, it was no different than saying that the site management had to vomit tens of billions of money.

“It’s salty. ah. Anonymity guaranteed?”

“Of course, I signed up by bypassing my identity. You don’t have to worry.”

“okay.”

I said with a smile.

“Are you feeling sick? Let’s see how long you can hold out.”

* * *

“… The damage is too great.”

The boss of the International Awakened Mafia organization said while looking at a report on an illegal gambling site, one of its flagship businesses.

“What the hell are these PMTs?”

Suddenly, after a draw, they were completely annihilated in 10 minutes in the next game, and they were showing a move that could not be grasped.

Of course, as the probability of all of them is extremely low, the dividend was high, so the damage to the site was not the only one.

“26x in a draw, 17x in a loss within 15 minutes. Does this make any sense?”

Like an illegal gambling site, everything is used because it is a subject of gambling, from the time it takes to lose to how much damage it takes to win or lose.

Even if someone was aiming for this, the amount of betting several times the usual amount was drawn or lost within 15 minutes, and the damage increased.

Boss said with a cold expression.

“How are these guys still active? Wasn’t Han Ji-hyeok caught?”

Even more so, the organization holding the meeting was an organization that directly manipulated the match by enlisting the PMT, so the absurdity was indescribable.

Then one of the executives, Alex, said.

“… It definitely had a tail attached.”

Alex is an S-class Awakener sent to Korea by the organization for match fixing.

“That tail, is it not Han Ji-hyeok? No matter how you look at it, it looks like the result of manipulation.”

At that, Alex said with a firm expression.

“The tail that was attached at that time was not Han Ji-hyeok, but an awakened person from another organization, and when we mistook it for Han Ji-hyeok and disappeared, they enlisted PMT and manipulated the match, are you saying?”

“okay. No matter how you think about it, this makes no sense.”

Alex thought about it for a moment and then said.

“The problem is serious.”

“Of course not serious.”

As an international criminal organization with S-class executives and SS-class bosses, their annual sales are staggering, and frankly, the damage they have suffered so far has been acceptable.

However, if variables outside of their control continue to occur in this way, the profitability of the business will inevitably suffer.

Of course, since it is an illegal site, it is enough to just close it and eat and drink, but the problem is that the amount is very ambiguous.

Closing an illegal site will inevitably lead to customer churn, and it will take a considerable amount of time to restore it to the same scale as now, but it is not a huge amount to accept, and it is an ambiguous amount that causes considerable profitability deterioration to ignore.

“I will look into it.”

“Make it really clear this time.”

“All right.”

Alex, who left the conference room, said with a cold expression.

“How dare you make fun of me without knowing the subject?”

Alex said, holding back his boiling anger.

“If it’s not the real Han Ji-hyeok… You’ll have to be prepared. I will show you hell.”
