Overgeared Chapter 932:
“I am planning to increase the number of subordinate guilds under the Overgeared Guild . The leader of the guild should be one of Grid’s close aides . ”
They were lacking talents .
Lauel habitually grumbled about this, but it was from the blind perspective of someone at the top . The Overgeared Guild was full of people . It was no longer possible to maintain only two guilds because they had reached the maximum capacity of each guild . Just as large companies had affiliates, it was time for them to separate their guilds .
“It is a prudent matter, and I plan to implement it gradually . But I need to set up the Shadows group as soon as possible . Today would be good . As you know, it is the busiest organization, and it is urgent to recruit people . . . ”
“Do you want me to take care of it?”
“That’s correct . Can you do it?” Lauel’s attitude was cautious .
Currently, the members of Overgeared Guild One were treated as ‘knights’ under Piaro, and they received a compensation effect to their stats . Their stats would drop the moment they left Overgeared Guild One . Now, Lauel was forced to sacrifice Faker, who had been with them since the time of the Tzedakah Guild . Lauel felt sorry about this, and his heart was heavy .
Faker nodded with a calm expression . “I understand . ”
“ . . . ”
He didn’t present any conditions or show that he was upset . In fact, he would do anything for Grid and the guild . This was Faker . Faker’s cool answer made Lauel feel more like a sinner . “I’d rather you be angry . ”
Guilds had levels . The Overgeared Guild One, where Grid was the leader, had reached the max level . In addition to the knight buffs, all sorts of conveniences were provided . On the other hand, the Overgeared Shadows Guild would start at level one and wouldn’t have any conveniences . The disadvantages Faker would face weren’t just to do with the loss of stats .
Yet he responded like this? Lauel had expected it, but once it actually happened, he couldn’t help scratching his head . Faker kept speaking with his blank expression, “I was prepared to do this one day . Additionally . . . ”
Was Lauel mistaken about Faker’s lips curving upward? Lauel rubbed his eyes as he heard Faker’s words .
“In my grandfather’s country, there is a saying that a dog who attends Seodang (private schools for teaching Chinese classics) for three years will be able to recite Chinese scrolls . I am confident that I can develop and run a guild . Believe in me . ”
As the shadow of the Overgeared Guild, Faker had been working with Lauel for many years . He had observed Lauel more closely than anyone else had done and naturally learned many things .
“Thank you . ”
On this day, Faker left Overgeared Guild One and established the Overgeared Shadows Guild . All the assassin players belonging to Overgeared Guild One moved to the Overgeared Shadows, while some of those on the waiting list started with the Overgeared Shadows .
The largest ever assassin guild was created . They were a knife just for Grid and the Overgeared Kingdom .

“Damn these guys . Kids, stop aggravating him,” Grid begged, but the Overgeared Skeletons’ Ridicule didn’t stop .
Grid felt like a nasty villain .
‘If I think of the person called Galgunos . . . ’
Galgunos was just trying to send away the people invading his house, only for the crazy robbers to keep mocking him without knowing how to be grateful . It was enough to cause a discussion on morality .
“ . . . Well, people are villains . There is no need to think about the monster . Yes, this is it . Overgeared Skeletons, laugh to your hearts’ content . Keep going . His name is Galgunos . I will give him the nickname of Galgu . ”
The sound of the walls breaking apart got nearer . It meant that the ‘war **** follower who learned two secret techniques’ was narrowing the distance . Now, it was unavoidable . Grid was filled with an eerie sense of excitement as he held the Enlightenment Sword with the Blade Aiming at the Gods and light elemental floating beside him .
‘What is the level of the real intermediate boss?’
According to Lauel’s report, the Overgeared members had explored the Temple of Shadows and Galgunos’ Temple . They found that the ‘intermediate boss’ who appeared on the first floor of the temple was ‘war **** follower who escaped from the grave . ’
This ‘intermediate boss’ was dangerous . Their attack power and agility were comparable to Grid’s, their defense was similar to Vantner’s, and they had a health of at least nine million . They even possessed the skill of unconditional counterattack . It was one skill, but the skill was too fraudulent . The basic specs were also high, so it was advised to avoid a one-on-one fight .
Yes, Lauel and the Overgeared members misunderstood that the war **** followers who escaped from the grave were the intermediate bosses because of how strong they were . In fact, they were also a threat to Grid .
Then what was the truth? This powerful boss monster wasn’t the intermediate boss . Based on the number that appeared, they were elite monsters . They were below the second-grade war **** follower who was called by Galgunos . In other words, it was unknown how powerful the true intermediate boss was .
‘I can get a hint from the name . ’ Grid’s thoughts accelerated . ‘They can use two skills . The followers who escaped from the grave only have the counterattack, but the one approaching right now has another difficulty .
‘In normal dungeons, the difference between elite monsters and the intermediate boss is at least 30–60 levels . A monster’s stats scale up by level, meaning the difference with the player’s stats will be significant .
‘Now, the most important thing is health . It will be really hard if they have twice the health . If the combo of Blackening, Blacksmith’s Rage, Flash, and Linked Kill Wave Pinnacle doesn’t kill it, I have to be prepared to die . ’
His accelerated thoughts didn’t lead him to an answer . If everything could be solved by thinking, there would be no war or hunger in the world .
“Damn . I’ll find out soon . ”
Grid currently didn’t have any information . He didn’t know if the war **** follower who had learned two secret techniques was undead or alive like the war **** followers who escaped from the grave . Its secret techniques were also unknown . Basically, Grid didn’t know anything, and it was meaningless to think .
In this sort of situation, he knew from experience that it was better to just empty his head . Grid wasn’t prideful or arrogant . He was a veteran who hadn’t stopped playing Satisfy since the day he started Satisfy .
“Blackening . Quick Movements . Blacksmith’s Rage . ”
The wall in front of Grid collapsed, and a zombie in an old cloak appeared over the wall . The war **** follower who had learned two secret techniques was also an undead . Grid responded calmly . He struck the war **** follower with a basic attack from his sword . After doing so, he didn’t get a notice that the durability of the sword was reduced, that his health was lost, or that a fracture had occurred . Fortunately, it meant that the attack power of the intermediate boss was equal or lower than Grid’s attack power .
However, he couldn’t be relieved for long . Grid swung his sword at the war **** followers continuously . As a result . . .
[You have suffered 7,930 damage . ]
[The target has received 9,950 damage . ]
[You have been counterattacked by a mysterious technique . You have suffered 9,950 damage . ]
In two seconds, Grid dealt one attack and was hit by one . He was able to get a glimpse of the attack power and speed of the war **** follower . The problem was the counterattack skill possessed by the war **** followers . The war **** followers responded to Grid at a transcendent speed once they registered that they were hit . They returned the same amount of damage that Grid had dealt .
‘Up to here is like the war **** follower who escaped from the grave . ’
The health was still difficult to gauge . Only 10,000 damage was dealt, so the health gauge of the war **** follower didn’t go down . Grid’s brain worked more fiercely . ‘What will be the other skill?’
He would be at a disadvantage if this went on longer . It was the same with dealing with the war **** follower who escaped from the grave . The **** followers of the war **** were monsters who boasted the same specs as Grid’s buff state . This meant the fight had to be decided while his buffs were still maintained .
‘No, I have a bit more time to spare . ’
Grid unleashed fierce blows toward the war **** follower while turning his gaze toward his still dazed companions . These people who would wake up after 45 seconds were solid insurance for Grid .
‘I’m not alone . ’
Grid’s eyes flashed fiercely . He had many questions . The lich Galgunos was a servant of a great demon . Who was the great demon that he served? Where did he get the bodies of the war **** followers from, and why was he using the war **** followers as experimental bodies? The followers of the war **** were looking for the Sword Grave . What was waiting in the Sword Grave?
Grid had to pursue victory if he wanted to find the answer to all these questions .
“Ah . ” Grid, who longed for victory and had a passion for combat, noticed that it was time for a new challenge . He used the ‘illusion’ ability of Belial’s Power that he had ignored so far . Grid hadn’t used it because he thought it was out of the range of his ability . Now seemed like the right time .
A new resolution and a spirit of challenge were required in order to reach a higher place . Grid didn’t want to stagnate . He had to challenge it, especially when thinking of the demon king subjugation . Grid suffered every time the war **** follower counterattacked . The war **** follower’s health gauge was fine, while Grid’s health had fallen by half . Grid even started feeling gratitude for the +8 defense that his inner underwear gave him . He was that desperate .
“Belial’s Power . ”
Thus, he used the power he had been ignoring . No, he ‘challenged’ the power .
[The power of the great demon Belial summoned in the Rune of Darkness has been opened!]
[It is impossible for a human to digest all three of Belial’s powers . ]
[You are in a half-demon state . Your body has endured the pressure of immense power . However, it is still impossible for a human to digest all three of Belial’s powers at the same time . ]
[You can use one of Belial’s three powers of: Darkness, fire, or illusion . ]
[You have chosen the power of illusion!]
[The passive skill ‘Queen of Mocking and Violation’ will be maintained for 2 minutes, and Queen’s Distortion is now activated . Another magic will be activated if your intelligence exceeds 4,000 . ]
[Your intelligence is low . It is difficult to control Queen’s Distortion . ]
“Grid . . . ?”
One minute had passed since Grid alone endured the attacks of the war **** follower who had learned two secret techniques . It was time for Chris, Pon, and Regas to regain their minds . However, the three of them weren’t fully aware that the negative states had been lifted .
It was because they saw five Grids, not one . They were confused like they had been drugged .
