Episode 13 – War of Kings (4)

Episode No.13 - The Battle of Kings (4)

Li Chengguo was startled by the system information and muttered.

"Another new scene..."

It's certainly not a good time.Before we could complete the clearance conditions of the existing scenario, another scenario came up.

As soon as the new scene arrived I clicked on it.

[Main Scene #4 – King's Qualifications]

Category: Master

Difficulty: A

Clearance condition: Occupy the "Throne of Despotism" in Gwanghwamun.

Time limit: 8 hours

Compensation: 10,000 coins

fail:-

*Only those who have completed the hidden scene "Road of the King" can challenge this scene.

*The despotic king has absolute command over all other kings.

*There are other special clearance conditions for this scene.

The situation is not good.

Our group has not been able to win the 'flag battle' goal.The burden is doubled.I had to complete the scenes related to the throne while overthrowing the Tyrant King and capturing Changshin Station.

Said the intermediate ghost.

[Look at your confused faces.Please don't worry too much.The scene plays out slowly. 】

Although everyone was in a state of restlessness, Gwanghwamun was still silent.It's natural.The king who survived knew how important it is to listen to the ghosts.

[As you can guess, the fourth main scene is about becoming the only king to sit on the throne.Of course, being king doesn't mean everyone can sit on the throne.Only those who have proven their qualifications can sit there. 】

The intermediate ghost smirked.

[So, I will announce the first qualification. 】

【King's Qualification】

1. "The owner of the throne should be braver than anyone else."

- 'Despotic throne' never needs 'weak king'.To challenge for the throne, you must have at least one Black Flag.

(Additional qualifications will be announced over time.)

A black flag.It was disgusting from the start.

[Hoohoo, the motivation has been given.Now let's make up a funny story! 】

The mid-level ghosts disappeared.

Liu Shangya's expression was anxious.

"If it's a black flag...you need to occupy 20 stations?"

"Yes."

Our group has a brown flag.This flag can be obtained after capturing 10 stations.

"What do we do? To create a black flag, we need more than 10 stations. If there are empty stations nearby..."

"The condition arises because there are no empty stations."

"what?"

As far as I know, no king has achieved Black Flag at this time.

"Have you forgotten? There is more than one way to change the color of a flag.

The achievement value of the flag is increased when taking over the station.However, there is a way to earn achievement points faster.

"what……!"

That is to take over the banner of another delegate.

At this moment, a group of kings with banners gathered in Gwanghwamun.

I asked the members to calm down.

"Don't worry. I'm not surprised. We'll go as planned."

As planned, I said so.But it won't be easy.

The clouds of war hang over Guanghuamen.Before the storm came, it was a breathless tense atmosphere.Weapons could be heard being drawn and lines were being formed.

Action will begin shortly.

Those who used to compete for the chance to advance will kill each other with real swords.Those desiring a wider estate will snatch each other's flags to capture more sites.

Bite and kill each other for better items.It's about survival.

Li Chengguo stared at the surrounding buildings and murmured in a dreamlike tone. "It's scary. Is this really South Korea?"

"This is Korea. This is still Korea."

"My lord, are you not afraid?"

"I am afraid."

I did not lie.I'm really scared.

To be honest, I often feel that way.Even after reading "Inactivation Law", I am still an ordinary office worker.I didn't say it, but I always wondered if I could really survive.

Of course, my worries didn't last long.Because it is useless to think about it.It's the same in any world.

The golden only son working for Minosoft is already in the past tense, and the present golden only son lives in the world of "Inactivation Law".Whether I like it or not, death will come.more importantly……

"At least I feel alive now."

[The exclusive skill "Fourth Wall" has been activated! 】

I turned around suddenly and saw Li Chengguo looking at me with devout eyes.

"When I look at the representative..."

"attack!"

Before Li Chengguo finished speaking, someone shouted. 300 meters away, a king began to march north.

He's a king with a brown flag like me.It was too far away for me to see his face, but he was probably the king of a small area.

Almost at the same time, the warlord hiding in Gwanghwamun began to show up.Each team is equipped with excellent self-defense equipment.

The most striking of these is a man in an ornate dragon robe.I knew who he was without looking.

Our target, the tyrant king, the ruler of Dobong District and Seongbuk District.

It feels new to me.The tyrant king has the largest armed force among the seven kings of Seoul.Now that he has acted, so will the First Apostle and the Kings of the Three Kingdoms.

"Perhaps most people will go after the Siyin Zhanxie Sword."

In fact, the direction the kings are heading is the northern part of the ancient palace, which is where the Siyin Zhanxie Sword is located.I didn't see him, but copycats move over there too.

Some forces ignored any damage and headed straight for the museum.

This is understandable.

Since the eligibility of the despotic king is unclear, they thought it would be more advantageous to occupy a powerful item.If the item is the Siyin Slaying Evil Sword, it can immediately make up for the lack of achievement points of their banners.

Li Chengguo asked anxiously: "Shouldn't we go? The Four Yin Slashing Evil Sword is quite a good item."

"If we go in the past, we will only be directly defeated."

We are not many, and among them are many high-level patron stars.

"Go west."

I lead everyone to act.All the kings go to the ancient palace museum in the north, so the road to the west is relatively smooth.

In the historic Gwanghwamun, there are museums everywhere.News Museum, Korean Financial History Museum, Police Museum...

Yoo Sang Ah asked, "Aren't we going to these places?"

"We should steer clear of modern and contemporary exhibits."

An ancient relic is better.

Of course, just being "old" isn't enough.The hoe used by Iron Age farmers is also an eligible item, but it's only tier F.The emphasis is on having a relationship with a famous person or a legend.

"Let's go here."

We stopped at the Seoul Museum of History across from Kyung Hee Palace.

Yoo Sang Ah's eyes were shining brightly.

"What are we looking for here?"

"We have to find Jian Pingyi. It's a relic from the Joseon Dynasty, it's like a disc, but I don't know which floor it's on."

"Okay, I'll try to find it!"

"We have to find it as soon as possible. So spread out. Ji Yong, you go with Sister Shang Ya. And Li Chengguo—"

As I spoke, a sharp object flew out from behind me.I reflexively pulled my members to squat down.

The outer walls of the buildings were pierced by arrows.There is a trace of magic on the shaft of the arrow.

I have goosebumps.

【Powerful Magic Arrow】.

The man has learned the art of archery.who is it?

The sudden ambush complicated my thoughts.Is someone watching our group's movements?

"Everyone go in! Quick!"

A few more arrows shot over.

[Blade of Faith is activated! 】

I swung my sword and hit the flying arrow.

Fortunately, the attached mana is not high, so they are not difficult to block.The problem is quantity.

An arrow came and sliced ​​through my thigh.I retreated quickly and hid behind the bunker.

"Hahaha! Where did this novice king slip away?"

A voice echoes nearby. A group of men with bows and swords appears 500 meters away.

Can't see their flag.That is, they sent a separate force.Some kings are smarter than I thought.Is he going to take away Xiao Wang's flag while devouring the items?

[Exclusive skill 'Character List' is activated. 】

I used the skill on the leader.

【Character Information】

Name: Qiu Wangren

Age: 33 years old

Star Behind: The Last Hero of Huangshan

Personal attribute: third-rate actor (ordinary)

Exclusive Skills: Weapon Training Lv.4, Deduction Lv.1, Weakness Detection Lv.1

Star Trace: Baekje Kendo Lv.4, Sacrifice to Serve the Country Lv.2, Independent Troop Command Lv.3

Overall data: Stamina Lv.19, Strength Lv.19, Agility Lv.21, Magic Lv.15

Overall evaluation: If you meet an excellent sponsor star, no one can grow up.Due to the high degree of coherence with the sponsor, the power of this person's star marks is remarkable.

Damn, a beast is coming.I didn't expect to meet the owner of Huangshan Fa here.Those with actor attributes tend to cling to this type of sign.

"If you know the king's honor, surrender your banner. So no member of your syndicate will lose his life."

That pathetic flamboyance tells me why he's only a third-rate actor. 'The Last Hero of Huang Shan Fa' belongs to such a person.Even zodiac signs, it seems, suffer from the doom of bad teammates.

But the situation is tough.

The ranks of Star Trace 'Baekje Kendo' and 'Independent Troop Command' are too high.Given the numbers, it's going to be hard for me to take on everyone on the opposing team without improving my overall stats.

【Coins held: 68,150】

...should coins be used here?However, if I use coins to improve my overall stats here, the difficulty of the final stage of the fourth scene will be greatly increased.

This messes up my whole plan.

If I close my eyes tightly and spend about 20,000 coins...

"Isn't it your shame to persecute the king of a weak country in the name of the Three Kingdoms?"

Hearing this voice, I looked around and saw a familiar person approaching.

The incarnation of Uncle Jie, Zhu Wanjin made a fierce expression.

"What is the Queen doing here?"

"Your rude tone is like a subjugated lord."

The woman shot back with air, "Min Ji-won, the king of beauty. Why is this woman here?"

...She definitely didn't follow me, did she?

Do not.impossible.

Min Ji Won glanced at me.

[The character "Min Ji-won" shows a faint liking for you. 】

……Really?

"Shut up! The cowardly Silla blood is going to rule the Three Kingdoms now? I won't admit that a little girl like you is the king!"

A roar burst out from Zhu Wanjin's body.He may be a third-rate actor with little acting skills, but he has a big voice.

It's fun, by the way.Jiebo and Zhensheng Queen were born in different eras, but after becoming constellations, they were able to face each other like this.

I asked Min Ji Won, "Why did you help me?"

"Silla will not ignore weak countries."

"It was Silla that destroyed Gaya."

"...you also got a first-class degree in Korean history?"

"Any high school graduate knows that much."

Min Zhiyuan became a little melancholy.

"I don't know because I didn't go to high school."

It's natural.Min Ji Won has been an actress since she was a teenager.She became an actress at a very young age, learning things other than history.

"You're right, I can't buy people off with money. I'm just apologizing for my rudeness. That's all."

I know Min Ji Won's past as an actress and can feel the sincerity in her words.But it still surprised me.She is the embodiment of a very high self-esteem, and I didn't expect her to bow her head in front of me like this.

Gerber's avatar mocked our conversation.

"The king is moved by a private matter? That's why a chick like you..."

Min Zhiyuan's Hwarang leader stepped forward.

"Disrespectful! How can someone like you be the ruler of a country?"

Jiebo's gaze was drawn to Hwarang.

"Hwarang...? Interesting. Did you sign with that constellation?"

These words made Hwarang Chang's face turn red.I remembered that the star behind Hwarang Jang is Kwan Chang.

"Do you want to have your neck cut off like the star behind you?"

During the Huangshan Expedition, Guan Chang died of being cut by Jie Bo.

"shut up!"

Thank you for coming to help, but the relationship between the constellations is terrible.High coherence makes this especially bad.

There is a hierarchical relationship between the constellations due to their pre-living history.A man cannot stand against their king, and the enemy is also determined according to the historical record.For example, Japan's Kuroshima Michiso can never defeat Chu Mugong.Just like Guan Chang couldn't defeat Jie Bo.

Min Ji-won knows this too, with a bad expression on her face.

I started by saying, "If we can't beat the army, we can't win."

Baekje's army has slightly more armed forces.Jiebo is a general, and the more people he leads, the more powerful he becomes.Guan Chang is not his opponent.

At this time, Liu Shangya's voice sounded. "Only son! I found it!"

I looked back and saw Yoo Sang Ah running towards with a small disc.Has she found it?

Jian Pingyi.A relic like a wall clock gleamed in Yoo Sang Ah's hands.

At this time, I had an idea.

I glanced at Jian Ping Yi, followed by the avatars of Min Ji Won and Kwan Chang.Then I made a decision.

Maybe I can win without coins?

"Go on!"

[Character 'Qiu Wangren' used 'Independent Force Lv.3'! 】

Under the offensive of the Baekje army, the Hwarangs kept falling.Min Ji Won looked at me desperately, and I said, "I think we can win."

"what?"

"We will reproduce the Battle of Huangshan Expedition."

Many people know this, but the Battle of Hwangsan was a battle that Silla won.

appendix:

Tang Gaozong issued an imperial edict to mediate the battle between Baekje and Silla, but to no avail.

Silla: Generals Kim Yu-shin, Generals Kim Pin-il, Kim Chin-soon and others selected [-] elite soldiers.

Baekje: The general Jie Bo killed his wife and sons, since he realized the ambition of the dead country, he gathered [-] dead soldiers, and set up three battalions to wait for the original danger of Huangshan.

Jin Yuxin and others divided the army into three routes to attack the battalion. They were defeated in the fourth battle, and the soldiers were exhausted.

General Jin Pinri ordered his son Guan Chang to be an example for the army. Guan Chang went to the battle alone and was captured alive before Uncle Jie. Uncle Jie loved his young courage and survived.Guan Chang came to fight again, Jie Bo captured and beheaded, and returned the head with a saddle.

Seeing this, the three armies were generous and determined to die, and clamored to attack. The Baekje soldiers were exhausted and defeated.Uncle Jie died.
