Closed Beta That Only I Played - Chapter 426 - Dangerous Onlookers (3)
In the Myeongjin Shelter at that time.
A huge battle was taking place between the three main bases located in the center of the shelter and the West Gate invaded by the enemy.
Of course, the enemy only numbered a little over 100, but the Myongjin forces numbered in the several thousands or even 10,000. Moreover, there were some others who joined them in the fight against the enemy.
Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!
“Aim accurately!”
“Target them in the back!”
“Even if we simply draw their attention, we’re going to help our allies a lot!”

“Alright!”
“Understood!”
Around 2000 men wearing clothes looking like military uniforms fired shells from tanks and mortars at the enemy numbering a little over 100, while firing their rifles as well.
They had to end the fight as soon as possible, given the big difference in the number of forces. Although there was a saying that one powerful man could match 100, the Myongjin forces had an overwhelming numerical superiority.
But the enemy’s firepower could not be ignored at all.
“Soaring Pillar of Fire!”
“Biting Wind!”
“My body will be Solid Steel!”
“Pouring Thunderstorm!”
:
:
“Burning Whip!”
“Breath of Destruction!”
“Disaster of Black Flames!”
“Chains of Hard Sand!”
Despite the huge difference in number between the two sides, they were evenly matched. On the surface their batte was really fierce, but there was obviously one side that suffered more casualties. They were none other than the Myongjin people who were numerically superior to the Lucid Guild forces.
“Kheeeeh!”
“Khuuuuuuuk!”
Flop!
Flop!
Of course, it wasn’t because the Myongjin players attacked recklessly, convinced of their strength in numbers, that they suffered more damage. Obviously, tanks stood in front, and the healers and enchanters supported them, while the dealers between them kept attacking the enemy. In other words, they were in a good formation to fight against the enemy. And they launched numerous attacks that often hit their targets accurately.
Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!
[…]
But the problem was that the invaders who were attacked didn’t care at all.
Rather, they counterattacked ruthlessly as if they didn’t suffer any damage at all.
Not only the tanks but also the healers, enchanters and dealers were devastated by their counterattack.
In other words, even though the Myongjin players were numerically superior to them, their combat power paled compared to the enemy.
Anyway, the fight continued for some time like that.
“Hehehe!”
Umberto, the leader of the Lucia Guild, looked ahead with a smile on his lips.
Even though the Myongjin players launched a series of attacks, none of his guild members was wounded.
Was it because each of them was as strong as Juyoung Hong?
Of course not, for Juyoung Hong was like a monster that could even transcend the impossible.
In other words, there was a reason why they didn’t suffer any casualties.
They had the limited skills ‘Shared Life’ and ‘Single Blow.’
[Limited Skill: Shared Life.
-You share the health of one designated person.]
Sharing somebody’s health itself was not particularly great because it was not collecting everyone’s health and amassing it as a shared health pool, but designating just one person to share their health.
But the reason why this health showed such tremendous power was because of the other trait, namely, Single Blow.
[Trait: Single Blow.
-You will not suffer any damage unless it is a strike that instantly deals more than 100% of your current health.]
For example, if they had one million health, they would not suffer any damage from the enemy’s attacks unless they launched an attack that dealt one million health in damage.
What’s more, Umberto raised those with that trait by giving them EXP directly until they reached level 1200, and invested all stat points in health only. He also gave them all the items he could to raise their stamina and health. Because of that, the person with the trait could not do anything alone, but it didn’t matter to Umberto since he was simply a chess piece for him.
Of course, Single Blow had some restrictions.
[Trait: Single Blow.
– If you continue to suffer cumulative damage, your durability will be weakened and the incoming damage will gradually increase.
– Your durability will be recovered over time.]
First of all, Umberto checked the status of the guy who possessed the trait ‘Single Blow’.
[Trait: Current durability of ‘Single Blow.’
-94%]
After checking it, Umberto decided he still had lots of durability.
Of course, Umberto had no intention of saving that guy even if his durability was reduced to 0% because he existed for this purpose.
To him, the most important thing was to use that guy to reduce the possible damage as much as possible.
As a matter of fact, he had to save that card until now because it would not have worked out on Juyoung Hong, but this time he used it freely to attack the Myongjin players.
Of course, he himself was actively involved in the attack because he was the strongest player here.
In the Myongjin camp.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Chairman Hong did not give the Myongjin players any specific order. He was well aware that the stronger Myongjin became and the more attention his son Juyoung got, the more people looked up to them, but at the same time there were people who were envious and hostile like the Lucia Guild.
That’s why the Myongjin Shelter was attacked by the Lucia Guild.
But he made sure they had received training in the scenario of a possible enemy’s attack. Perhaps because of that, they fought well, but obviously, it was mainly the Myongjin players who suffered damage.
“Never step back!”
“Fill in the position of those who fell!”
“We must hold out until the end. That way, even if we die, our families can live under Myungjin’s protection!”
“Our death is not worthless! When Juyoung Hong comes back, he will take revenge on behalf of us! So don’t be afraid!”
“Alright!”
“Understood!”
“Thick Wall of Earth!”
“Thorns of Pain!”
“Spear of Solid Earth.”

“The Wind’s Spirits Biting Wind!
“Piercing Power Shot!”
“Triple Shot!”
Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!
Chairman Hong couldn’t even say anything to those Myongjin members who encouraged themselves and replaced the positions of their dead colleagues themselves without his order. For his order would mean telling them to sacrifice themselves.
Of course, Chairman Hong wanted to step forward and fight like others.
But if he stepped forward and got killed by the enemy’s attack, it would not only provoke the intense anger of their allies, but also raise the morale of the enemy.
In any battle, the best way to win was to kill the enemy’s leader.
That’s why he didn’t step forward and fight at the forefront. However, he opened his eyes wide, memorizing every scene of the battle, because he would surely take revenge for his subordinates.
It’s been 30 minutes after the start of the fight at the Myongjin Shelter.
Their fighting seemed like it would end fast at first, given the huge difference in the number of their troops, but it didn’t. As the fighting dragged on, the Myongjin players started to suffer more and more damage, and casualties started to grow.
Even though they knew that it was only them who was suffering damage, not the Lucia Guild, they didn’t retreat at all.
Actually, Suyoung Hong started launching even fiercer attacks against them because she was furious over Myongjin’s losses as the chairman’s daughter.
Of course, she was not reckless enough to charge at them alone because she clearly witnessed a group of Myongjin Players being killed instantly when trying to cover for her.
But tears still dropped from her eyes.
