Level 1 Player

‘Isn’t it only connected to me?’

Maybe it was.

And if it wasn't, he might have given up on Hyunseong and chose the enemy player in front of him.

‘I have to be careful.’

Hyunseong raised his vigilance.

The Book of Immortality has a strong self-healing power.

Where is that?

He also has the power of resurrection.

But what if the source of existence that is the basis of resurrection disappears?

Those who have the Book of Immortality cannot exercise any power of resilience and resurrection power.

“What else are you?”

Enemy players roared towards Hyunseong.

phlegmatic.

At the same time, he rushed towards Hyunseong with his whole body covered in jet-black lightning.

Fragile! Whoops!

Hyunseong protected each other's body from the black magician and flame.

Aww! Aww!

Hyunseong and the enemy player collide one after another.

‘What is this?’

Hyunseong's face was horribly contorted.

The enemy player's stats were lower than Hyunseong's.

Of course, it is normal for the enemy player's skill attack power to be lower than Hyunseong's.

However… … .

‘Why are you so strong?’

The enemy player's strength and speed were exactly as Hyunseong expected.

However, jet-black thunderbolts of power beyond common sense erupted non-stop.

‘Even if the will of existence has taken away the power it has, it cannot be this strong.’

Hyunseong also tried stealing it, so he knew the limit better than anyone else.

Then there is only one answer left.

‘Did you give in?’

Unless you succumb to the constant temptation and swear allegiance to the will of existence, and receive its full power... … .

As the opponent's stats, he could never use an attack skill with this level of power.

‘What should I do?’

The one who lends power to the other is God.

No matter how much Hyunseong's level rises, he cannot win the battle with God.

‘I don’t think there is any pressure at all.’

It is said that God lends his power, but it is the enemy player who manifests it.

When Hyunseong uses the Overlord's Blessing skill, his combat power changes according to the stats of his subordinates.

Also, if he used excessive power over his ability for a long time, his body could not withstand it and in some cases self-destructed.

'It won't be much different from the Overlord's Blessing.'

Even though they were given divine power, they were equally constrained by their bodies.

‘Let’s try it.’

The enemy player did not overwhelm Hyunseong even when he was endowed with divine power.

There was a feeling that Hyunseong was being pushed a bit.

However, Hyunseong had all kinds of passive skills, including tolerance and territorial declaration.

‘You never know how many more people you will meet in the future.’

I thought it would be good to properly measure the fighting power of the clan that was endowed with divine power through this battle.

Hyunseong intentionally consumed his stamina to activate his passive skills.

After that, he even used the Yonginization skill.Aww!

As Hyunseong, who turned into Yongin, poured in an attack, the confident enemy player's face was distorted.

“My lord! Give me more strength!”

Hold on!

Simultaneously with the shouts of the enemy players, a jet-black thunderbolt began to emit a stronger light.

"die!"

The enemy player attacked Hyunseong fiercely.

Hyunseong focused on defense and aimed at the enemy's gaps in the middle.

The power to annihilate the source of existence.

It wasn't just the enemy players.

Hyunseong's skill Book of Flames also had the power to annihilate the source of existence.

Aww! Aww!

Hyunseong and the enemy player launched an onslaught at each other.

It was not easy to win because each had the power to inflict irreparable damage to each other.

‘I can win.’

But Hyunseong was sure of victory.

This is because, after receiving stronger powers from the gods, the enemy players' ability to operate their skills dropped significantly.

Naturally, the wasted power increased.

'I don't think I've ever been given this much power.'

If he had had the experience, he would not have shown the way he was swayed by power as he is now.

'It's no different from those who get the overlord's blessing and run wild as if that's their power.'

Hyunseong put his heart at ease and continued the fight.

As time passed, the war situation gradually turned in Hyunseong's favor.

‘It seems that there is a lot of strain on the body.’

He wasn't even hit by Hyunseong's attack, but his skin cracked and blood splattered.

‘It’s not about physical strength or mental strength.’

It was a matter of the durability of the body.

The opponent was endowed with powerful powers from God.

However, the body of the enemy player who used that power could not afford the power.

‘I can’t go far.’

The body, the vessel containing the power of God, showed signs of breaking.

‘There is no need to forcefully attack.’

Hyunseong was absorbed in the defense and waited calmly.

It was a natural choice, as it was obvious that the opponent would self-destruct if he waited.

“Ahhhh!”

Perhaps the opponent also felt it, screaming and pouring an onslaught.

Hyunseong held on calmly.

That moment.

percussion!

The opponent blew himself up and chose to run away.

He decided that he could not beat Hyunseong and started running away.

'Do you think I'll leave it alone? Fat, Deokgu.’

Hyunseong summoned two spirits.

He couldn't summon spirits when he was defending.

It was because of the power to annihilate the source of the opponent's existence.

When the source is destroyed, it was impossible to resurrect, no matter how the spirits, Tungi and Deokgu.

‘But if it’s a chase, it’s a different story.’

Tungi and Deokgu fired an onslaught from a distance.

Hyunseong narrowed the distance between Tungi and Deokgu checking the enemy players.

Scratch!

The Black Lightning God Magician and the dragon blood sword covered in flames pierced the enemy player's defense.Red blood spurted out, leaving a long cut on the back of the enemy player.

“Wow!”

The enemy player turned.

He realized that escape was impossible.

"this guy!"

The enemy player poured an onslaught towards Hyunseong with mad eyes.

In fact, from the point of view of the enemy players, it was just unfair.

He invaded another dimension.

The level of the players in the invaded dimension was too low, and they were engaged in a domination war effortlessly.

But suddenly, a dog bone that he did not know from where it came from attacked him.

The enemy player, who accepted the power of the gods, thought he would win without difficulty.

He did, but on the contrary, he was cornered.

Of course, from the point of view of the enemy players, it was inevitable.

“Why the hell are you interrupting my work!”

Hyunseong smiled faintly at the shout of the enemy player.

“Then why did you invade this dimension?”

The reason enemy players invaded this dimension was to earn his achievements and increase the dimension under his command.

Hyunseong's purpose was the same.

He wanted to save this dimension, earning achievements, and increasing the dimension under his command.

Their goals were the same.

However, the two had no choice but to fight each other because the methods for achieving their goals were contradictory.

The enemy player had to occupy this dimension and Hyunseong had to save it.

Scratch!

The Dragon Blood Sword cut off the right arm of the enemy player holding the weapon.

“Obedily surrender and come under my control. Then I will spare your life.”

Hyunseong recommended surrender.

‘If you bring him under your control, you will be able to learn about the secrets of God’s family.’

Hyunseong rejected God's temptation.

And he elevated himself to the same position as the gods.

However, Hyunseong knew very little about God.

‘I never know when I will meet someone like that again.’

This time it was easily overpowered, but the next opponent might be stronger.

As the saying goes that if you are tired, information about God and his family was the most important to Hyunseong.

"profit!"

The opponent bowed his head with a shameful expression.

The jet-black lightning that wrapped around his body disappeared, and his magical power subsided.

‘It’s surprising.’

Although Hyunseong personally recommended surrender, he did not think he would graciously listen to it.

‘I thought there was a high probability that I would resist until the very end.’

Well, there was nothing bad about Hyunseong.

This is because there is more information that can be obtained from a player who is alive than from a player who has lost their life by using a skill.

“Under your control, gagging!”

The opponent who was about to swear allegiance suddenly bent like a shrimp.

At the same time, the vitality and magical power of the opponent's body swelled like crazy.

Fragile!

A jet-black lightning bolt engulfed the opponent's body.

'Damn it.'

Hyunseong frowned.

‘Declaration of territory.’

Fragile! Whoops!

Hyunseong protected his body by using the Realm Declaration skill and raising the Black Lightning Shinma Ball and the Flame Book to the maximum.After that, I widened the distance with the opponent.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

At that moment, the opponent's body exploded as it was.

The power of the jet-black lightning that was created by burning life and magical power was processed into a real thing.

The black lightning mage and the book of flames were pierced in an instant, and a lightning bolt with the power of annihilation struck Hyunseong's body.

“Gagging!”

A jet-black lightning bolt burned the scales that covered Hyunseong's body and melted his skin.

“Ahhhhhhhh!”

Hyunseong let out a scream of pain.

Not only was the trauma serious, but the internal injuries were also serious.

His blood vessels burst and his bones and flesh melted.

Heart, brain, liver, lungs, stomach, all organs in the body melted.

The excruciating pain made Hyunseong unable to come to his senses.

The problem was that this pain did not go away and persisted.

The power to annihilate the source of existence.

Because of that power, the person who had the Book of Immortality was not able to show any resilience at all.

‘Are you dying in vain like this?’

Even in the midst of pain, Hyunseong was absurd.

I didn't know that the other party was going to commit suicide.

No, I didn't know that even if I self-destruct, the power would be this powerful.

‘What is a non-grade skill that can’t defend even one attack.’

Hyunseong has a total of three unranked skills.

These were the Black Lightning God Magician, the Book of Flames, and the Book of Immortality.

However, none of them could prevent the self-destruct attack of the enemy player.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Hyunseong twisted.

The terrible pain showed no sign of going away.

I wish I had fainted, but I didn't.

It was impossible to die.

Although the power of the self-destruct attack caused fatal injuries to Hyunseong's body, it was not enough to kill him.

‘As long as the Book of Immortality activates… … .'

It was a wound that could be healed quickly.

But the book of immortality showed no sign of it.

There was no reaction as if ignoring Hyunseong's injury.

“Wow!”

Hyunseong clenched her teeth.

‘Do I have to live like this for the rest of my life? Feeling the pain now?’

The high stamina stat did not allow the death of Hyunseong, who suffered injuries that would not be strange even if he died instantly.

The high mental strength stat did not allow Hyunseong to rest from fainting.

Rather, it allowed me to feel the pain inflicted on my body more vividly.

‘I can’t do this.’

I couldn't live like this my whole life.

However, there was only one way out of the present pain, and Hyunseong took his own life.

But Hyunseong couldn't die.

He had a loving family and had dimensions to uphold.

Even if he had to live with the pain of the present forever, Hyunseong had an obligation to maintain the present life.

“Wow!”

Hyunseong struggled to get up.

But the pain that covered his whole body showed no sign of disappearing at all.

'in action. Activate your power.’

Hyunseong gave an order to the Immortal Book with a strong will.

But the Book of Immortality showed no response.

The root of Hyunseong's body was damaged.

Naturally, the Immortal Book judged Hyunseong's current physical condition to be normal.

So, there was no way the passive skill Book of Immortality would be activated.

'in action. in action.'

For Hyunseong, it didn't matter whether Book of Immortality was a passive skill or an active skill.

The source has disappeared.

However, Hyunseong clearly remembered his normal physical condition.

Can't he activate the Book of Immortality, his power, just because the source has disappeared?

Hyunseong was never convinced.

No, he wasn't convinced.

‘You are my strength.’

Immortality, whether it was a skill or anything, was the power sleeping in Hyunseong's body.

Whether the source has disappeared or not, Hyunseong clearly imprinted his body that was still intact.

He has the power to restore the body and remembers the original state of the body.

Then, of course, he had to be completely restored to his full body condition.

“Wow!”

Hyunseong endured his excruciating pain and continued to issue orders to activate the Book of Immortality.

One day, two days, three days, four days... … .

Time continued to pass.

However, Hyunseong's steely will did not weaken in the slightest.

That was then.

Wow! Wow!

The Book of Immortality, which had not had any response in the past, began to respond to Hyunseong's will.

'uh?'

Hyunseong's face hardened.

‘It’s triggered.’

The Book of Immortality, which had not been moved in the past, responded according to Hyunseong's will.

Hyunseong was even more focused.

Wow! Wow!

The recovery rate was quite slow.

However, the book of immortality restored Hyunseong's damaged body.

The Book of Immortality, which received Hyunseong's strong will, showed a completely new power beyond its original limitations.

‘Is this the power of the Book of Immortality, which was reborn as a non-grade skill?’

It didn't seem like a power that came after being upgraded to an unranked skill.

If it were, the wounds on Hyunseong's body would have healed immediately after the injury.

'will.'

Hyunseong continued to give orders to the Book of Immortality.

He gave orders incessantly for several days without sleeping.

And as a result, the Book of Immortality responded.

‘Isn’t there a set path that I have to make my own?’

The power of unranked skills.

It was not given as fixedly as it used to be.

Whether it is a creation level skill or a general level skill, all skills have a predetermined power in the first place.

From the caster's point of view, it was nothing more than activating a skill that had already been completed.

However, the unranked skill was different.

The caster had to realize and create a new power by his own will.

Of course, this was Hyunseong's hypothesis to the end.

It may or may not really be.

‘But it is very likely.’

Hyunseong concentrated a stronger will on the book of immortality.At the same time, Hyunseong's body was recovering faster and faster.

After a while.

Hyunseong was able to get out of the pain that had been tormenting him for the past few days.

‘You must obtain power.’

Through this incident, Hyunseong drew new powers from the Book of Immortality.

Then it will be the same for other non-rated skills.

‘I don’t think it will be easy.’

After struggling for days and days, feeling the pain that seemed to stop breathing right away, I got only one skill.

But what about other unranked skills?

Perhaps it was never easy to obtain power.

‘Still, I have gained a lot.’

Hyunseong looked at the messages in front of him.

He also had achievements gained while saving the dimension.

But apart from that, there were new achievements.

[Unbelievable Achievement – ​​Creation Rank]

-You have defeated the family of God for the first time.

Achievement Reward: Title [The first to defeat the family of the gods - Creation level]

[Unbelievable Achievement – ​​Normal Rank]

-You have defeated the lowest rank of God for the first time.

Achievement Reward: Title [The first to defeat the lowest rank of God – Normal Grade]

[Unbelievable Achievement – ​​Rare Rating]

-You have defeated a lower class of the gods for the first time.

Achievement Reward: Title [The first to defeat a lower class of God – Rare Grade]

[Unbelievable Achievement – ​​Hero Rank]

-You have defeated the middle class of God for the first time.

Achievement Reward: Title [The first to defeat the middle class of the gods – hero grade]

[Unbelievable Achievement – ​​Creation Rank]

- You were the first to create power.

Achievement Reward: Title [First Creator of Power – Creation Rank]

In addition to saving the dimension and winning the dimension war, a total of five achievements came to mind.

Four were obtained by defeating an enemy player who was a member of the gods, and one was an achievement obtained because the Book of Immortality awakened a new power.

‘By the way, this is because he was an intermediate.’

That meant that there would be more powerful families of gods out there.

‘What if an opponent with similar or slightly lower stats to me became a member of the gods?’

It was obvious that Hyunseong, who had not properly awakened his powers, would be an incredibly daunting opponent.

‘I have to be careful.’

After acquiring a non-graded skill, he moved more actively with confidence.

It was because he had gained the confidence that he was well worth a try if he wasn't out of bounds.

However, the family of God was also added to this.

‘I don’t know what the hell they are doing, but there is a high probability that we will continue to bump into each other in the future.’

Hyunseong could come forward to save the allied dimension and bump into it, or conversely, the opponent could attack the dimension that Hyunseong occupied.

‘It’s a pity we didn’t get the right information.’

Since the enemy had self-destructed, he could not find out the information through the skill.

Well, although Hyunseong wasn't in a situation where he could try to get the information.

‘Was it really your will to self-destruct?’

The enemy player decided that there was no chance of winning and tried to surrender to Hyunseong.

However, he suddenly reacted abnormally and self-destructed.

Of course, all of that could be acting to distract Hyunseong.

‘But most likely not.’

In Hyunseong's view, the reaction of the enemy players was not entirely clear.

'It was as if the initiative of the body was forcibly taken away.'In the case of a lord player and a subordinate player, if the difference in power was large, the subordinate player could not easily refuse the lord player's command.

What about the relationship between God and his family?

‘There may be more coercion than the lord player and the subordinate player.’

It was not at the level of giving instructions, but the possibility that the body was forcibly seized and self-destructed could not be ruled out.

‘It hurts my head.’

I struggled so much against only the middle class.

What if it was upper-class or upper-class?

It's likely to have been quite stale.

‘I have to be careful.’

Along with that, I felt the need to awaken the power of the unpaid skills as soon as possible.

* * *

After returning to Earth, Hyunseong continued the dimensional war.

But he had no special accidents.

He didn't even meet a member of the god's clan or an enemy level 1 player with skills close to Hyunseong.

Hyunseong successfully led the dimensional warfare to victory, and as a result he is able to subjugate more than 30 dimensions under his command.

‘I got it again.’

As the dimensions occupied increased, Hyunseong's achievements continued to grow.

In particular, the stats given by the linked achievements obtained as the dimensions occupied increased were also quite salssol.

However, on the contrary, he was experiencing considerable difficulties in awakening the power of unranked skills.

If he's like the Book of Immortality, it's probably because he's never done it before.

However, he could not easily grasp cases such as the Black Lightning Shinma Ball and the Book of Flames.

‘Let’s focus on the present for now.’

Hyunseong made that conclusion and focused on dimensional warfare.

Meanwhile, time passed like a flowing stream.

‘It’s falling again.’

Hyunseong frowned at the falling system store sales.

He's been servicing online games for quite some time.

Naturally, level 1 players who got tired of the game often gave up on the game.

'New games should cover it, but it's not perfect.'

Although mobile games were also doing well, sales were showing a steady decline.

The cause was simple.

Because none of the newly released games could be called masterpieces.

To be honest, it was to the extent that I thought it would be a good thing if it was just a medium beat rather than a jackpot.

'Dangerous.'

Both foreign game companies and Korean game companies were not showing clear results.

People react dramatically to stimuli they feel for the first time.

However, it shows a somewhat blunt response to familiar stimuli.

It was the same with games.

The good news is that dramas, movies, novels, and cartoons are consistently doing well.

It was thanks to the various attempts made by domestic and foreign cultural products.

In particular, in the case of Korean dramas, they have been steadily making good strides, capturing the hearts of first-level female players.

But Hyunseong couldn't let go of his heart.

‘There are too few new user pools.’

Level 1 players grow significantly faster than other players.

However, it takes quite a long time to grow enough to invest the points you need to use for survival in games and other cultural activities.

Hyunseong also invested over a dozen years of time to get to where he is today.

What about other first-level players?

It took hundreds of years, not decades.

For this reason, there was no influx of new users, so the user pool had no choice but to decrease.

Although the servers of games that have been in service for a long time are consolidating and persisting, there may be situations in which the service is stopped altogether over time.

‘I need to take emergency measures first.’Hyunseong abolished the flat-rate system for games with declining sales.

‘Since it was a partially paid game in the first place, there is nothing to lose.’

At the same time, flat-rate flat-rate fees and partial fees also began to discriminate according to the performance of the game.

It lowered the price of unpopular games.

Then, the decrease in the user pool, which was gradually decreasing, could be delayed to some extent.

Of course, I also heard a lot of cursing.

- I'm going to do this right now!

-In the meantime, money has risen, so I ate a flat rate and sold items for a partial fee, and then immediately lowered my tail as the popularity fell.

- Do you think I'll play the game again because you're like this? Choi Hyunseong If I play the game you sell again, I'm not a person, I'm a dog, dog!

- I took a screenshot of you. Whether he really comes back or not, I'll keep an eye on him.

- Gentlemen, this is a consumer victory! Stop playing dog-like games for just one month! Then those games will be abolished as well!

All kinds of remarks erupted.

There were a few compliments, but most of them were insults.

There were voices that incited the game to stop for a month.

Despite all kinds of negative reactions, this temporary measure was successful.

‘Sales are flat, but the number of returning users has increased.’

Although the sales fell sharply with the abolition of the flat rate, a balance was achieved to a certain extent thanks to the returning users returning the gacha.

'But this won't last long.'

A new hit game had to come out quickly and attract users, but it wasn't easy.

Compared to the early days of online games, the amount of money flowing into the game business today is unimaginable.

However, few games were as popular as the early online games.

‘You are used to it.’

Numerous games came out.

It was never easy to catch the eyes of users who were accustomed to it and open their wallets.

‘It seems a little early, but I can’t help it.’

It was something that was planned anyway.

It was also an item that would surely be responsible for sales for at least a few years.

But yes, it is a one-shot.

1 year at the shortest.

At the longest, it will show its limits in two or three years.

No, rather than the limit, the lifespan of the item was only that much in the first place.

‘We should succeed in developing a truly masterpiece game within two years at the latest.’

It had to be made, even if it were to wield the whip of money and grind game developers to the millstone of work.

Level 1 player Yoo Jeong-yeop was once a gamer of WaX.

But at some point he lost interest and quit the game.

He often had access to X with me he had old thoughts.

But the game has changed so much.

After a lot of patches, WaX became a completely different game.

Yoo Jung-yeop, who logged in to recall his past memories, quit Baro and X.

He had a brief stint with X Mobile, but soon lost interest in it.

‘There are no fun games these days.’

I often enjoy new games these days, but I couldn't immerse myself in the rejection of the unfamiliar.

Also, he couldn't have as much fun playing the game as he did before.

Yoo Jeong-yeop continued surfing the web with a gloomy face.

"uh?"

At that moment, Jeongyeop Yoo jumped up from his seat.

It was because of the ad I just saw.

-WaX Classic, feel the emotion of the past again.

After seeing the ad, Yoo Jeong-yeop accessed the WaX Classic site at lightning speed.

And after he downloaded the game, he was immediately sucked into Aros.
