Overgeared Chapter 383:


Chapter 383

The key to firing quickly was the resilience of the bow . It was the reason why a drake’s tendon was one of the materials necessary to produce the Quick Fire Bow .

Drake . The strongest pet that a player could tame . It had excellent combat power and was difficult to hunt due to its high intelligence . In the first place, they were hard to find because the population was low . Even if they found a drake, players were more inclined to tame them than hunt them .

For these reasons, it was difficult to obtain a drake’s tendons, and the price was very expensive . Despite only having a small number of users, the minimum price was 10,000 gold each . Grid might be wealthy, but it was a huge burden to invest a lot of it into expensive materials .

‘I have to be satisfied with this one . ’



[Spiral Quick Fire Bow]

Rating: Epic

Attack Power: 215~249 Firing Speed: +17%

Accuracy: -30%

* Every time you shoot an arrow, the firing speed will increase by 1% . This effect will only be applied up to 50% .

* It is difficult to control the trajectory of the arrow .

* If you hit the ‘desired target’, you will gain additional Bow Mastery experience .







Honestly, Grid wasn’t satisfied . However, this was the best of the five bows that Grid made .

‘It is enough if it increases the experience rate of the mastery skill . ’

Anyway, his intentions were achieved . Grid would raise the level of Bow Mastery by controlling the trajectory of the arrow .

‘There is a lot of work to do before the National Competition . ’

He needed to raise the level of his newly learned skills while attacking the Behen Archipelago . he also needed to figure out his deficiencies while doing it and create new items . There were 40 days left in real time until the National Competition started, and Grid planned to increase his gameplay time even further .

The only space where he could prove his worth was in Satisfy, which he devoted his life to .

『 Which country do you think will win the 2nd National Competition? 』

It was the latest international news .

Once the anchor asked a question, the experts in each field came up with enthusiastic answers .

『 The United States will be first . The average level of the US team participants is the highest of all the participating countries . 』

『 The United States has many top rankers such as Zibal, Asuka, Lauel, Box, and Black Teddy . Unlike last year, I don’t think Hurent is participating, but the power balance is much better than other countries . 』

『 But won’t Lauel act as a variable? Isn’t Lauel one of the closest people to Grid in Overgeared? During the competition, it’s possible that he will help South Korea, not the United States… 』

『 The Overgeared members aren’t young three year olds who can’t distinguish between different matters . They know that the National Competition is classified as a different area . 』

『 In the first place, there’s no need to be concerned . Helping other nations is a violation of the rules and they won’t be able to escape severe punishment . Not just Lauel, but all the other Overgeared members will keep this in mind . 』

It was logical . In fact, the Overgeared members were going to fight for the honor of their country in the National Competition . Grid was destined to face Lauel’s smarts, as well as competing against the members such as Pon, Regas, and Faker .

『 Who are other contenders apart from the United States? 』

『 Canada and France have the most top rankers next to the United States . 』

『 What about South Korea, who have Grid and Yura, or Russia, who has Kraugel? 』

『 The 2nd National Competition is very different from the 1st National Competition . There are more events and some rules have changed, so it’s impossible for a few players to raise a country . South Korea will be in the top 15, while Russia will be in the top 18 . 』

『 Isn’t South Korea still too high? Isn’t it a country without any rankers except for Grid, Yura, and Peak Sword? 』

『 Of course, on the surface, South Korea is classified as a weak team . But Yura is a variable . If she obtained a unique hidden class as rumored… 』

In the 1st National Competition, South Korea was classified as the weakest . Most of the participating countries looked down on South Korea . Compared to that time, the evaluation of South Korea in the 2nd National Competition was very good .

The reactions of the Korean people varied .

–Why are they ignoring South Korea? Did they forget Korea’s third place last year?

–I agree . Even last year, Peak Sword didn’t participate .

–Yura was just a normal class .

–But this year, we will get a better ranking because we have Peak Sword and Yura, who has a hidden class .

South Korea can be one of the contenders for victory .

–Are the people from the Patriotic Association bombarding the message boards?

–What was the reason why Korea could get the 3rd ranking last year? Grid was too good .

–Correct . South Korea is still a country weak in Satisfy . Last year, Grid won all three gold medals for South Korea . This year and last year, the overall power of South Korea is too weak .

–Don’t you think that Grid can win three gold medals this year? Of course . He is God Grid . But the problem is that the value of the gold medals this year is very different from last year . In last year’s National Competition, there were nine events . But now there are 21 events .

–Peak Sword? In other countries, Peak Sword is just an average player .

There were also skeptics . As it happened, most Koreans shared negative opinions like this . Peak Sword was irritated .

“It’s so funny that I have to sit down . ”

The Patriotic Association’s headquarters in Seoul . Peak Sword accessed the Internet as soon as he logged out, and now his expression distorted .

“They are underestimating God Grid and South Korea . And what? I only have average skills in other countries? These guys, do you know Peak Sword?”

Peak Sword’s enthusiasm grew . He had to make South Korea the winner of the 2nd National Competition…

“…It seems too fanciful . ”

Peak Sword thought realistically . He would make South Korea enter the top 10 rankings of the 2nd National Competition . Step by step, he was hopeful that one day, South Korea would raise its status in Satisfy .

Up until this point, people around the world, including Peak Sword, were unaware of something . This was just the opening of the legend of Grid and the Overgeared Guild .

Grid, Grid, Grid, Grid, Grid, Grid, Grid!

This name was heard if the TV or radio was turned out, from phones, in the newspapers, on the Internet and even when neighborhood aunties gathered together . There was only talk about the National Competition and Grid everywhere in South Korea .

It was enough to drive Go Jimyung crazy .

“Damn Grid!”

Go Jimyung .

A player of the KBO League .

He once had the reputation of the best hitter in South Korea . However, since last year, he entered a relationship with the leader of the girl group Farina and his performance fell, as well as being caught up in a series of accidents .

It wasn’t just a level to be dropped from the team, but an exit from the league itself .

“Grid…!”

In the Young Ladies High School’s Satisfy tournament, Go Jimyung was asked by his girlfriend to defeat Ruby . He risked breaking the rules to kill Ruby, but failed due to Grid getting in his way . In the aftermath of that, he was pushed to his current crisis . He had been branded as garbage by the public and his girlfriend broke up with him .

Go Jimyung considered the cause of this to be Grid . It was the typical blaming everything on others .

“I won’t forgive you . ”

Kwaduduk!

Go Jimyung went somewhere . It was to call the chief of the big gang ‘Poisonous Wave,’ who lived in the back world of Seoul .

“We’ll check on the building and sleep at Grandpa’s house . ”

Youngwoo’s parents and sister went on a family outing after a long time . Of course, Youngwoo didn’t go with them . It was because he was busy preparing for the National Competition .

“Please stay healthy . ”

As soon as his family members left, Youngwoo logged straight back into Satisfy . There was someone waiting for him .



***

000-0 Street, XX Neighborhood, Geumcheon-gu .

Grid was a famous resident of the area . It was also a place where people constantly went in order to meet Grid . But due to the opposition of the residents, the district council designated it as a out-of-bounds area and the defense was tight .

As a result, Grid’s neighborhood changed into one that was good to live in . Grid’s popularity in the area skyrocketed .

“Why does a poor area like this have the same defense as the palace?”

The person in charge of distributing drugs for the Poisonous Wave gang, Kang Cheolgyu . He was known as one of the Five Fingers in Seoul due to his excellent punching skills . Go Jimyung was a senior from his hometown, so it was easy for Kang Cheolgyu to accept the request to **** someone .

The problem was reaching the target’s house . It unexpectedly took him two hours .

“I will charge another 500 million won . ”

Kang Cheolgyu had a sly smile on his face . His eyes were looking at the 800 million won car in front of the target’s home .

‘Grid . Grid…’

More Koreans set up Grid as a hero, but Kang Cheolgyu thought it was ridiculous . The hero of their country was a gamer? Kang Cheolgyu wasn’t able to understand the psychology of people who were so enthusiastic about a gaming contest .

“Drink alcohol over playing games, stupid people . ”

Kang Cheolgyu waited for Grid’s door to open . He planned to aim for the moment when Grid left the house . For 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours… 10 hours passed, but Grid’s door never opened .

‘What?’

Grid wasn’t coming out? It was a cold autumn night . Kang Cheolgyu was weak to the cold, so his complexion gradually became worn down .
