The Player Hides His Past

Chapter 91: Blooming in the Swamp (8)

Its to germinate the seeds of the World Tree.

!!!

The confidence of not having anything to hide.

Hoyeols words shocked the faces of the guild masters.

The one who could answer.

It was Nam Taemin who had developed some resistance to Hoyeols shocking behavior while working with him.

Hoyeol-ssi. This progress is too fast By any chance, when you said the seed of the World Tree, are you referring to this huge rock?

Yes. Its not a rock, its the seed of the World Tree.

The World Tree

Was Hoyeol lying?

He knew it was impossible, but.

He didnt expect the World Tree to be suddenly mentioned.

Naturally, it was difficult to accept.

However.

There is no shame in not knowing.

A voice as lofty as her appearance.

Nam Taemin nodded to the spirits voice.

If Hoyeol-ssi says so, he must be right. I believe it.

Nam Tamin believed in him.

Leonie was confused in her head.

Is it okay to tell us something like us?

Before and after the Cataclysm.

Information about Arcana held power.

But suddenly, the word World Tree.

He said it with his own mouth.

He was basically telling the truth to strangers with his own mouth.

Actions came before thoughts.

Leonie hated giving meaning to such behavior, but

Doesnt it mean no one else knows?

Anyone was bound to feel surprised.

Hisagis thought was not much different from hers.

No, it was bound to be worse than those two.

Why?

If Hoyeol tried to hide it, he could hide it as much as he wanted.

No, if it were Hisagi, he would have hidden it.

Seed of the World Tree.

Just hearing about it, he could tell there were huge rewards involved.

Any player would have known that by intuition.

But Hoyeol told the truth as if it were natural.

Gaon and Berserker might be different. But he even told us.

Hed felt it in Hokkaido and the Yusra Kingdom.

Even if he thought hard about it, how could he fathom Hoyeols meaning?

Hisagi was just determined.

No matter what that cooperation is, Inazuma will do our best to help.

Nam Taemin and Leonie.

The two seemed to have nothing to answer.

They were waiting for Hoyeol to open his mouth.

Of course, Hoyeol didnt hesitate.

In order to sprout the seeds of the World Tree.

In order to do that!

Considerable concentration is required.

So, where should they start?

While listening to his words.

The three of them used Arcanas experience to roll their brain in their own way.

If they followed the normal course of action, they had to start with an investigation.

It would take quite a long time just to examine the huge seed.

It looks like the fight will be long.

Its worthwhile to be fully prepared.

If necessary, we have to build a camp

However.

Can you calm the commotion for a moment?

What do you mean?

At Hoyeols words, the faces of the three were again stained with shock.

Hoyeols words meant that a moment would be enough to sprout the seed of that huge World Tree.

I didnt even know the World Tree existed!

How far are you looking?

As expected, Hoyeol-ssi.

What did it mean?

Hoyeols declaration that they couldnt even make a guess of.

The reactions to it were different.

At this moment, the actions of the three guild masters were the same.

The seed of the World Tree.

Now that they were close to the loot.

Hoyeol and the three guilds had become public enemies.

Its coming!

Yeah, they had to fight the predators that came at them.

No, as requested by Hoyeol.

They had to put the commotion to rest.

[Poison Horn Rhinoceros: Lv.530]

[Ragged Beast: Lv.550]

[Bone Grave Keeper Golem: Lv.600]

Considering the level of monsters flocking.

If it was a single guild, it would have been unthinkable.

4th in the guild ranking, Bohemian alone suffered tremendous damage while dealing with only two monsters. But this wasnt just one guild.

Alright. You can just do it like when youre being clingy. Youre a professional, arent you?

Besides, Gaon and Inazuma.

They were two guilds that knew each other well enough to compete with each other.

Guild masters, as well as guild members.

They were well aware of each others strengths and weaknesses.

Were these two guilds coming together for the first time?

This was the first time such an unbelievable combination happened.

Enough to ignite the madness of the berserkers who were watching.

Knock!

After snatching a flying arrow with his bare hands.

Swish!

Hit!

Nam Taemin threw the arrow with his bare hands, using force.

Crunch!

It literally surrendered.

Clang!

Leonie cut the bone.

Barbarian and berserker.

If Nam Taemin and Leoni violently stirred up the battlefield.

Hisagi skillfully adjusted the speed of the battle with his spear.

Really, was it really their first time working together?

Those who watched were also excited.

We dont know what kind of talk came and went. Anyway, its a great combination. Against close to a dozen monsters, theyre not being pushed back.

With the exception of Shining and Union, arent Gaon and Inazuma the best guilds? Theyre showing a performance worthy of their reputation!

Berserker is no joke. Their guild ranking lags behind the two guilds, but as expected from the name Berserker. Their momentum on the battlefield isnt inferior to the two guilds at all!

Predator zone rupture.

As long as the battles never ended.

There would be a lot of things to see.

I never thought Id see Gaon and Inazuma team up in my life

The joke that made me curse on April Fools Day has become a reality

Rankers arent rankers for nothing

Even though there are a lot of mobs and the level difference is quite high, theyre not pushed back.

Unpredictable developments poured out.

Of course, the majority of the shares belonged to Hoyeol.

From his unusual emergence on the lotus leaf.

To swordsmanship revealed like a hidden dagger.

Not only hed signed a contract with a spirit.

He even united Gaon, Inazuma, and Berserk.

Knowing that fact.

Those watching couldnt help but look forward to it.

The player community was the same way.

I thought his purpose was just the spirit contract

No, if that was his purpose, he would have gone out of the rupture right away;;

Actually, experience or drop rate buffs are meaningless to Lee Hoyeol

VBC Studio.

Player Lee Hoyeol probably has a greater purpose.

Hes drawing a bigger picture. Thats what it means!

Thats right! There must be a reason why he gathered the guilds!

No, the whole world was starting to focus on Hoyeol.

PD Hyun Yongseok looked at the monitor with his hands getting sweaty.

He suddenly opened his mouth.

Ive felt this while working on broadcasting.

Yes?

Human beings are so cunning. If a stimulus gives you a lot of fun or thrill, you adapt to it. You can tell by looking at the dramas. Even if it is praised as a well-made drama, the viewership ratings are lower than those of the soap opera dramas.

Is that right?

But it means theyve adapted to the level of the soap opera.

Now that I look at it, thats true, isnt it? Now, the secrets of birth are the basics, and the siblings are betrayed by adultery and crime Anyway, it comes with a lot of settings.

Yes. You know it well. Thats why Im worried.

Worried? Are you worried about the broadcasting station?

Hyun Yongseok shook his head at the confused assistant directors reaction.

No, Lee Hoyeol.

Hed shown so many things so far.

Now Hoyeol wouldnt be able to satisfy the public.

Well, it was like that now.

If it were me, I wouldnt have been able to breathe properly due to the pressure.

He couldnt understand Hoyeols thoughts.

Hyun Yongseok tried to roll his brain.

Not only magic, high-level swordsmanship. Not only he proved the existence of the spirits, he also signed with a high-level spirit. Besides, he united Gaon, Inazuma, and Berserker together.

Days.

No, those were boisterous activities that could be talked about for weeks.

But, as you could see, humans were crafty creatures.

Werent they looking forward to it again?

Lee Hoyeol will show something even greater.

However, Hyun Yongseok thought coldly.

While developing Today Arcana, hed developed an eye for it.

There are so many things he showed us this time.

A performance that would go beyond those performances.

Even if this was Lee Hoyeol, it must be difficult.

Hyun Yongseok thought.

Of course, its the directors job to wrap up even that.

But it was an illusion.

S-Sunbae! Look at that!

H-Huh? What is it?

No, look at Lee Hoyeol!

At the urgent call of the assistant director.

He looked at the monitor again.

Soon, Hyun Yongseoks eyes widened.

W-What? That wasnt a rock?

There was no way Hoyeol needed a wrap-up.

*

As reliable as they were.

In this [Predators Swamp] rupture.

You wouldnt find a stronger support group than this one.

Rankers arent rankers for nothing.

Nam Taemin, who started the class quest in the recapture of Frost.

Without the class quest, he was already at the top of the players ranking.

Thanks to the rewards of class quests.

He was getting noticeably stronger every time I saw him.

A rival isnt a rival for nothing.

His rival was Hisagi.

There was nothing more I had to say.

Leonie, since the first time I saw her.

She was an excellent player who met Grandfels standards.

At some point, I had tried to move my body to try out Leonies swordsmanship.

Therefore.

I was able to access the seed of the World Tree without much interference.

It was bigger up close.

I didnt know where the World Tree was

It was so big that I wondered how the seed could roll all the way here. Seriously.

Here we go, nymph.

But I didnt hesitate.

I was worried about the aftermath and mana exhaustion due to its huge size, but

I had confidence.

Since the [Pentagram of Pure Knowledge] had knowledge about the World Tree.

The World Tree was just a plant.

As you wish.

Because the nymph had the blessing that could advance plant growth.

Me and the nymph simultaneously put our hands on the seed of the World Tree.

It was solid.

That was all I felt, but that didnt seem to be the case for the nymph.

I feel an extraordinary energy.

I didnt bother to answer back.

Wasnt she a nymph under my influence?

As expected, once she made up her mind, she had no hesitation.

Gooo!

Mana began to flow out of the nymphs body.

At the same time, the power of nature permeated the seed of the World Tree.

Sure enough, what I expected began to happen.

Crazy, look at the mana running out.

I was determined, but I didnt expect it to be this fast.

The seed of the World Tree was a giant sponge.

I felt like I was just dropping a few drops of water.

But I couldnt express it.

Even if I collapse from mana exhaustion!

My legs were shaking too.

Round and round it spun in front of my eyes.

I had no choice but to suppress it desperately.

This was a problem on a different level from enduring the cold.

Indeed, this obsession with formality was phenomenal.

I felt like I was going to faint when I touched it.

I was standing upright.

Damn it, method acting!

As much as the players were immersed in the battle.

I was struggling, too.

Of course, even the nymph right next to me couldnt notice it.

The nymphs {nature} ability was using my mana as if it were water.

It was replaced with a blessing.

No one knew.

My life was so sad

However.

!

Even if the spirit didnt know, someone did.

[The seed of the World Tree germinates.]

Yeah, the system knew my shitty life!

As soon as the message appeared, the nymph said.

Hoyeol-nim, thanks for your support!

I nodded.

And I checked the quest window.

• Seeds of the World Tree currently sprouted 1 / Unknown

I did it!

Dont ask me how the process was.

Whether it was a mess or skipped halfway through.

The important thing had always been the result.

I had no doubt that it would be possible.

This time I wasnt being brazen.

If we had to collect information about the World Tree and sprout the seeds of the World Tree following the normal standard. The Arcana continent would have been destroyed by demons before then.

Yeah, you did a great job this time. Lee Hoyeol.

I briefly praised myself.

I shifted my gaze from the message.

So this is the World Tree.

Slide

The seed slowly cracked.

Szszsz

A brilliant light began to emanate from between.

Hoyeol-ssi?

I-Is it over already?

As expected, Hoyeol-san!!

Those who were nearby began to witness the sight.

It didnt discriminate between players and monsters.

Even the life-and-death battles stopped.

They focused on the birth of the new World Tree.

It was the same with me.

The giant cotyledon becomes a stem and a base.

Its stretching roots held the swamp firmly.

As if the dampness of the swamp was a nourishment prepared for it.

You could even see the water level going down.

The World Tree was absorbing the water.

Then it began to sprout leaves from the branches.

At the same time, messages appeared.

[A new World Tree has taken root on the Arcana continent.]

[The Arcana continent blesses the birth of the World Tree.]

[The energy of life is swaying throughout the Arcana continent.]

A feast of constantly emerging messages.

Because it was a world-class quest.

The messages didnt just appear to me.

W-World Tree?!

No way, was that the seed of the World Tree?

How far does Lee Hoyeol know?

But I kept quiet.

Because I was carrying out the world quest.

A message came only to me.

[Your achievements resonate in the Arcana continent.]

[Life on the Arcana Continent speaks of your existence.]

[The title system will be opened.]

[You will acquire the title, Last Adventurer.]

Title system?

Wait, whats its effect?
