Returner of the Colosseum - Returner of the Colosseum chapter 93

＜ Episode 93. A step forward (2) ＞

After staring blankly at the status window for a while, I sat down in a chair.

That stat window that went beyond three digits.

It felt so strange.

‘A day like this will come.’

Than having all the perks turned on when I finally played the promotion match.

My base stats are higher.

‘How much is it if I turn on all the perks?’

I immediately took out a piece of paper and a pen and calculated my stats when the bloody enhancement perk was turned on.

30 percent of the star system in reverse and dimension.

30% Blood Enhancement Perk.

Breath of Thunder increases strength and agility by 15%.

Up to 5 percent of the moon’s echo, assuming there’s a full moon there.

[Strength: 203 (+5) (+88)] [Agility: 203 (+5) (+88)] [Strength: 183 (+5) (+70)]

[Spirit: 168 (+5) (+64)] [Intelligence: 56 (+22)] [Magic Power: 137 (+5) (+52)]

“under. hahahaha······.”

I got goosebumps for an instant.

Turn on all perks.

His strength and agility were over 200.

‘it’s crazy.’

After entering the Colosseum, I was thrilled with the amazing high stats I saw for the first time.

Cú Chulainn, who is said to be the strongest in the upper league?

I don’t know how many stats he has because I haven’t met him, but if I fight after turning on all the perks, he probably won’t be my opponent.

Because it was an enormous stat enough to go up to the high league right now.

‘Let’s stay calm.’

I hurriedly took a deep breath to calm my excitement.

Nonetheless, my heart, which had once started beating wildly, did not calm down easily.

senior league.

I couldn’t even go to that threshold.

Because I’ve been looking there for a while.

However, as soon as I thought of the Transcendence League, I calmly sank as if I had been covered with cold water.

‘It’s not the end just by going up to a higher league.’

You can go up to the higher leagues?

but what?

Nothing has been accomplished yet.

The Colosseum is a place where you never know what will happen.

How many players died at my hands even with high stats.

‘It is said that they have experience of the first round up to the higher leagues, but there is not too much information from the higher leagues onwards.’

The biggest problem there is.

What kind of missions are available in the High League and Transcendence League?

What are the conditions to become the champion of the Transcendence League?

There was no information.

A completely unknown world.

‘This is not the time to be like this.’

To survive in such a place, it would be advantageous to have higher stats than others.

So I had to find a way to raise the stats here.

Raising stats through training is now almost impossible.

If you wear the curse set and train, you will have to climb, but at most you can raise 1 point per month.

Even if you assume that you raise it by 1, you can only raise 12 points in a year.

‘The efficiency is too low.’

In the past, I would have devoted myself to training even if my efficiency decreased by crying and eating mustard, but not anymore.

Playing Coach System.

and blood absorption.

Because there were two new weapons.

‘The number of points coming in as a playing coach keeps increasing.’

It was 763 points in the first month,

In the third month, it was 2,684 points.

But this month.

‘I’ve already received over 5,000 points.’

The rate of increase was staggering.

At this rate, it seemed that in the next few years, more than 100,000 points would come in every month.

‘Is there any way to further shorten that period?’

I tapped the table with my index finger.

In the end, it means that the players in Team Fighting have to grow.

The training method has been perfected to the point where there is no place to touch it anymore.

‘All that’s left is items and skills.’

Is it really right to invest my earned gold in them?

I scribbled down the investment-to-efficiency ratio on a piece of paper.

How much gold will I have to invest per person, and how many points I will earn.

But my troubles didn’t last long.

‘There is no answer if I invest alone.’

Gold can be exchanged, and I am confident of earning a lot afterwards.

However, the loss was so great that no profit came out.

It was then.

bang!

“Ahn Woo-jin!”

The door to the office opened violently, and Aserian gasped in.

To the extent that I was startled without even realizing it.

Her eyes were wide open and her face flushed red.

“……What are you doing?”

Anxiety crept in for a moment.

It was the first time I had seen Aserian so flustered.

“Ahn Woo-jin…”

“yes.”

“Ahn Woo-jin…?”

“…?”

Aserian was so embarrassed that she couldn’t easily stop talking while only calling my name.

So I decided to calm her down first.

“For now, calm down. What the hell is going on?”

“What happened?”

“yes?”

“Ahn Woo-jin’s stats right now. You suddenly went up a lot…?”

ah.

Was that why you were so surprised?

I let out a sigh of relief.

I thought something big was going on.

“Ah yes. I used the points I had saved up until now.”

“The points you saved up?”

“yes.”

Then, Aserian quickly blinked his eyes.

It seemed that he didn’t understand what I was saying.

“With the accumulated points… you raised your stats to 110?”

“yes.”

Aserian made a blank expression with his mouth open.

I laughed at her reaction.

but.

It means that I have accumulated almost 900,000 points, but who would think that such a crazy person would exist.

Right now, I wouldn’t believe it if I heard that someone recently raised their stats by collecting 900,000 points.

Because I know how hard it is, no, it’s close to impossible.

“Sir, you’re not saying you haven’t used any points since you entered the Colosseum until now, right?”

“That’s right.”

“oh my god······!”

At my words, Aserian exclaimed.

I was so surprised that I couldn’t speak as I covered my mouth with both hands.

“oh my god······. What the hell were you thinking? Then what will you do if you die…?”

“Because it’s difficult to raise a stat beyond 80.”

“Ah, no matter how… Do you have a second round of life? How could that…”

“…”

I was heartbroken at Aserian’s words.

Because I’m actually living a second life.

So I was contemplating what to answer, but Aserian shook his head.

“Eh. what nonsense It’s ridiculous to say you went back in time. Anyway, really… you’re amazing.”

Fortunately, Aserian himself seemed to think that it made no sense.

‘also.’

I could see it again from the look.

A situation where even she, a goddess, thinks that time regression is impossible.

So I couldn’t get rid of the awkward feeling.

Why did the king bring me back?

What the hell was it for?

well, anyway.

“I was lucky.”

I couldn’t tell you honestly, so I had to express it in one word.

“Then what about those… skills? I thought you bought it by exchanging your points for gold until now.”

“Ah, I was lucky enough to get a lot of expensive items during the game. I bought skills by selling them to an intermediary exchange.”

“and. I’ve only imagined it, but it turns out that this is actually possible… I thought that if it was Ahn Woo-jin, he would definitely go up to the high level, but… I never thought you would rise to the level of a high-ranking player in just 5 months…”

Aserian’s slender shoulders trembled.

Looking very excited.

Of course I got it.

If a team with a top player is viewed as a mid-level team, it is classified as a large-level team the moment a high-level player appears.

‘It’s a terrible probability.’

Out of 1,000 players who came out by random draw, one was wondering whether or not to rise to a higher league.

Even if I take Team Fighting as an example right now, there are 264 players, but I am the only top player.

Among such a small number of top players, only one out of 100 would rise to a higher league.

Probabilistically speaking, about 100,000 people have to be drawn randomly to get one.

‘If the number of active duty soldiers in Korea is 600,000, there are only about six.’

The number of 4-star generals was 7, including the land, sea and air forces, so it was a smaller percentage of atrocities.

It must be that Aserian is so excited to enter a place that is so difficult to climb, since I have only been in the higher leagues for about six months.

It was when Aserian, who had been immersed in joy for a while, returned to his usual form.

“Have you calmed down?”

Aserian looked embarrassed.

“Hmm, hmm. Excuse me, because I’m so distracted. You must be busy, but I’ll leave.”

‘Let’s talk about it soon.’

“Aserian-sama. I have something to tell you.”

“yes?”

“Do you have any intention of investing gold?”

“Investment? To Ahn Woo-jin?”

Aserian raised his eyes.

“no. To the players on Team Fighting.”

“hmm. I think I need a detailed explanation.”

I explained to her what I had envisioned.

“The training system is already complete. I think this is a matter that time will solve.”

“Yes.”

“Then, the only thing left to strengthen is equipment and skills. That’s why, I’m wondering if you don’t want to invest in cheap yet cost-effective equipment and skills with good synergy in your current teammates.”

It was an extension of what I was thinking earlier.

Technically speaking, Aserian and I felt like partners or collaborators.

It’s a very obvious fact that if I earn a lot of points through the playing coach system, she will benefit too.

If I invested gold alone, it wouldn’t be profitable, but if she gave me gold together, it was quite possible.

“hmm······. I know what you meant. But wouldn’t the damage be too great if I did that?”

After thinking for a while, Aserian shook his head.

Like me, I thought there were too many things to lose compared to investment.

“There is a workaround for that. We don’t buy equipment, we rent it.”

“You say you rent it out?”

“yes. I buy equipment with good efficiency and rent it only when I play in the game. Of course, if you die on the pitch, you will lose your equipment, but it’s still far less expensive than buying everyone a pair.”

“ah······.”

“And it is literally an investment. Right now, you will lose money at first. But don’t you know In the end, thanks to the support of equipment and skills, it would not be a loss if even one of them could rise to a higher league.”

At my words, Aserian nodded.

I’m the only top player in Team Fighting right now, so you should know better.

That the points I earn are more than all the rest combined.

“If Aserian-sama is willing to invest, I will also offer 10 million gold.”

Thinking that Aserian showed some interest, I threw the odds.

“・・・・・10 million gold each?”

“yes. The faster the team grows, the more points I get.”

Aserian, who had been pondering for a while, nodded.

“Um… that’s good. Ahn Woo-jin said he would invest such a large amount of money, but as the owner of the team, I cannot be left out.”

‘it’s okay.’

I clenched my fists.

This is the amount of points coming in through the playing coach.

It will be exponentially faster.

After an agreement with Aserian to invest gold in players to match items and skills.

A new building has been created in the farm called the Special Arena.

It was a building that could only be created by taking the existing arena level to max level, and it was built by Aserian at my request.

‘very good.’

Unlike the arena where there is only a ring to fight, in the special arena, jungle, desert, swamp, and all kinds of terrain could be realized.

In a word, sparring can be done more like a real battle.

I almost lived in a newly built special arena.

In the meantime, all the training time to raise stats was changed to a sparring schedule.

It’s almost impossible to raise stats through training now.

in the middle of the jungle.

Hiding among the thick grass, I quickly jumped at Chang-beom and swung my dagger.

visor! visor! Chae Chaeng! hooked! hooked! hooked! hooked! hooked!

“Huh, huh. Get on, time! brother! sigh! Wait a minute…!”

Dozens of times to slash the shield and stab the dagger into his abdomen.

When I let go of the grip that was holding my shoulders tightly to prevent him from running away, Chang-beom Chang, whose legs were loosened, fell down.

This is the 20th death today alone.

From noble mtl dot com

Joo Chang-beom, who was still bleeding and did not move, stood up trembling after a while.

All of the knife marks on his stomach had disappeared before he knew it.

“under. Woojin hyung. I can’t stop my brother from breaking through.”

“Why can’t you stop it?”

“The movement is so deceitful. It turns so fast that I can’t keep up with it.”

From noble mtl dot com

Joo Chang-beom shook his head.

Every time he nodded, sweat dripped from his forehead.

“Then would you just die if you met an assassin like me?”

“That’s not it, but…”

“Huh, I guess I’ll have to explain this time too. There are two workarounds. First, the center of gravity shifts quickly. Even if you learn this, you won’t be able to change direction as much as I did, but at least you’ll be able to hold out your shield at the right timing.”

At my explanation, Joo Chang-beom’s eyes shone brightly.

There was a hint of tenacity not to miss a single word.

“It’s because the center of gravity shifts quickly…”

“The second is spatial cropping. No matter how hard you train, you will eventually meet players who are faster and nimble than you. When that happens, I block the space they must pass through.”

“Are you blocking the space you need to pass through?”

I started to show him a demonstration after I woke up the head of the head of the head of the head.

“here. Or here. It doesn’t matter where you stand. Because there is an angle blocked by the shield, you must attack by digging into this space. So, are you here? I’ll dig in there, so would you like to stick your sword in this way?”

“yes!”

I moved as slowly as possible and burrowed into Chang-beom Chang’s arms.

Then, it clearly showed how Chang-beom Joo’s attack, which flew to the point I had taken, blocked my movement.

“ah! That’s how you block them!”

“Of course, in the middle of a fierce fight, every moment will keep changing which space to block at what timing. To figure that out, you basically need to be able to predict how your opponent’s moves will lead. It will take a lot of training to use in the real world.”

“yes!”

“Today’s Dalian ends here. Could you tell Go Geon-ha to come in after seeing him?”

“oh! Thank you for your hard work!”

At my words, Joo Chang-beom exulted and left the special training ground.

It seemed very happy that the next person’s turn came in the moment when they were exhausted from the intense sparring.

What I teach my teammates here is how to deal with various weapons such as swords, swords, spears, bows, and daggers.

And it was a way to deal with various styles such as assault, ambush, and infiltration.

Because of that, I was able to practice various weapon techniques and styles, so it was good, and the team members were able to learn how to deal with various weapon techniques, so it killed two birds with one stone.

“after······. Is it my turn already?”

At that time, Go Geon-ha sighed and appeared from one side of the special arena.

A face full of fatigue.

‘I’ve been working hard lately.’

As Dalian time is greatly increased.

The other players were grinding out tremendously.
