Closed Beta That Only I Played - Chapter 427
Chapter 427: Dangerous Onlookers (4)
Even though Suyoung kept attacking them as one of the dealers instead of advancing forward, she shed tears because she was so upset that her power was less than 10% of her brother Juyoung’s.
But suddenly, a huge shadow loomed over her. At first she was stunned, not knowing how she got close to any of the enemy to see their shadow. But it wasn’t their shadow.
Wiggle, wiggle.
Something white and big appeared before her eyes. She knew what it was because she had seen it lots of times. She knew it was the White Root that usually accompanied her brother.
“How come you are here…?”
In fact, the White Root did not appear when Juyoung logged into ‘Revival Legend.’ The White Root appeared only when he was logged out. So she thought it would not appear because her brother was not on the earth now.
She looked around first, just in case her brother had already come back.
Although the fighting had stalled since everyone was overwhelmed by the sudden appearance of the huge White Root,she could not find her brother, who must be full of anger, anywhere on the battleground.
“Are you alone now?”
Wiggle, wiggle.
Instead of answering, the White Root just wiggled.
Watching it, she raised her hand, pointing at one enemy, then opened her mouth.
“Can you attack him?”
She just spat out such words because she was so frustrated at the moment.
She wasn’t even sure if the White Root would move as she wished.
Puck!
“Khuuuuuuuk!”
She could confirm that even though they were not exactly the same as the White Root that accompanied her brother, two brown roots of enormous thickness appeared and attacked the enemy she pointed at.
“…”
Of course, Umberto immediately identified what suddenly appeared before his eyes because the root in question was notoriously well known, and its owner was even more famous because of it.
But the problem was why it suddenly appeared here right now.
So he turned his head to the left and right before he knew it.
As a matter of fact, he could not say he had nothing to with the root in question at all because it was he who gave the order to make the Myongjin Shelter the “Land that Summons Monsters”, even though it was his subordinate Matthias that actually carried out the deed.
Back then he realized that the root in question moved like Juyoung Hong as if they were one body.
He knew that the root in question did not appear in reality when Juyoung Hong was connected to Revival Legend, but only appeared when he was not connected to it. In other words, the appearance of the root meant that Juyoung Hong was on the Earth now rather than moving to the area o o o as part of the ‘Advance Party.’
He began to tremble violently.
‘Damn it! Juyoung Hong obviously participated in the event ‘Advance Party’! I’ve searched for him everywhere, and even waited for more than 10 days just in case he could appear!”
He couldn’t bring himself to express his restlessness and anxiety, so he sneakily looked for Juyoung Hong while trembling. More precisely, he looked everywhere for an exit to ensure his survival, even though his chance of surviving was less than 0.00001%.
He knew that Juyoung Hong was stronger than all the players combined of the Myongjin Guild, and that his return to the earth at this moment would mean the failure of his surprise attack against the Myongjin Shelter.
Wiggle, wiggle.
The huge root was just wiggling by itself instead of attacking the intruders. What’s more, the battle had stalled to a lull and Juyoung Hong would not have simply sat idle if he had already returned to earth since several thousand Myongjin players had already been killed.
‘Has he not come back yet?’
He was not sure why the huge root appeared right now, but he just thought that Juyoung Hong was not on the earth at this moment. More precisely, he was convinced that Juyoung was not here.
At the same time, he turned his eyes towards the huge White Root.
It was none other than the White Root that protected as many as 10,000 ordinary people for nearly two months during the Borneche Expedition, and it was again the White Root that perfectly blocked the ‘Land Summoning Monsters’ in the Myongjin Shelter which sent out more powerful monsters more frequently as time went by.
In other words, the White Root was close to a monster just like its owner.
But its owner was obviously not here right now.
So Umberto was going to order his forces to resume attacking because he would not have a second chance like this if Juyoung Hong came back. He also thought that there was a possibility that the White Root would simply stay put while the fight was going on.
At that moment, however, Suyoung said to the White Root, “Can you attack him?”
Umberto could see her, who was on his must-kill list, talking to the White Root, pointing to one of his deputies with her finger.
At that moment, he earnestly kept his fingers crossed that the White Root would not listen to her because its owner was obviously Juyoung Hong.
But the White Root granted her request.
Puck!
“Kheeeek!”
He saw a huge and thick root erupting from under the ground where his deputy stood. Naturally, the root not only exited above ground, but also attacked his subordinate right away.
So Umberto shouted immediately, “Damn it! Kill that bitch! Kill her first”
Of course, there was no guarantee that only she could control that root of Juyoung Hong’s because there were some other members of his family such as his parents and elder brother here.
But Umberto could not give up here. He thought he had to continue fighting because he was convinced that Juyoung was not here, and that this was his last chance to destroy the Myongjin Shelter.
Anway, the fight resumed when he ordered his men to resume attacking.
“Stop their attack!”
“Protect her by all means!”
“Cheer up, everybody! Hang in there! Juyoung is fighting with us in our hearts!”
Those who belonged to the Myongjin Shelter knew the power of the White Root better than anyone else because they had seen its remarkable performance many times.
So they moved to protect Suyoung who was controlling the White Root right now.
But something eye-opening happened before their eyes.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.
As if to protect her, lots of roots sprang up from the ground around her.
She was not stupid enough not to have noticed them.
She instinctively knew that her brother’s root didn’t simply sit idle there because it could not recognize the enemy. Actually, the roots could fight for the Myongjin players as long as she specifically pointed to the enemy.
So she pointed straight to one place and opened her mouth.
“Attack that guy wearing a wolf mask in the 3 o’clock direction at the far end of this place!”
Puck!
She confirmed that a brown root sprang up from under the feet of the man she pointed at, and attacked him. Not only she, but also all the members of the Myongjin Guild saw it.
“Wow!”
“Cheer up, everybody!”
“We can win!”
