The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 331

[Oh. Sung JiHan! What's the matter with you contacting me first?]

The person Sung JiHan contacted was the deceased star's seat, Calain.

Because the player receiving support couldn't contact the seat first.

Sung JiHan followed Calain's channel that subscribed to him in reverse.

[Pain vs. Joy. How can we extract more death energy from the target?]

[Effective torture methods by race - Dragon race]

[To create the strongest undead, I tried kidnapping the new race.]

The channel of the deceased star was filled with grotesque videos.

"Ugh... If this wasn't BattleTube, I would have to mosaic everything."

"Sir. Can I take a quick nap...?"

"Yes, go ahead and rest."

Even Yoon Se-ah and Lee Ha-yeon, who had developed some resistance to cruel scenes because of BattleNet, couldn't watch the video uploaded by the seat of the deceased star until the end.

Not only were they cruel, but the scenes of relentless experimentation were also chilling.

It made them feel instinctive disgust as humans.

However, it seemed that there was a lot of information worth investigating if it was related to the necromancer class.

"The subscriber count is over a million."

Calain's channel boasted a considerable number of subscribers.

While Sung JiHan was watching the channel, Calain sent an additional message.

[By the way, you started BattleTube...]

"Oh. That's why I contacted you. Can I write a post on the official member bulletin board? It's about VIP card authentication."

[Hey. Are you satisfied with just writing one post on the official member bulletin board? If you become my head, we can even merge. How about it? I'll promote you!]

"If I become your head, won't I merge into one existence? Then my channel and everything will disappear."

"No! It might not be like that~ Who knows if you'll transform into a powerful Sung JiHan and the seat of the deceased star will disappear! Let's do it, let's do it!"

"Enough."

"Oh. I see. Then how about a temporary experience? Just for 10 days, I'll be in your head! After 10 days, I'll definitely separate!"

"I said enough."

What a ridiculous temporary experience.

At Sung JiHan's firm refusal, Calain expressed his disappointment.

"Tsk... You're too much. What level are you?"

"370."

"No, my alt character isn't even 300... How did you level up so fast? At this rate, you'll become a seat soon."

"Maybe you're not sincere about your alt character."

"What are you talking about? I take charge in most games! I quickly surpassed the level-up phase of Hell after 300... Hey, if you become a seat, we can't merge!"

"Oh? That's good news."

"Ugh... If the possibility of becoming a seat and losing the chance to become a head disappears, there's no point in helping you."

That's true.

The reason the seat of the deceased star showed favor to Sung JiHan was because he was the optimal candidate to become the "head."

If Sung JiHan refused to become the head and advanced to the seat, there would be no reason for Calain to support him.

"I guess I'll have to receive a fee for writing the post. Give me one of the glass bottles you obtained from the Seat Research Institute. Not the regeneration potion, something else!"

"How did you know about that?"

"Hehe. As the seat, I've been watching what our heads are doing!"

Are you a stalker?

While contemplating whether to cut off the supporting seat, Sung JiHan took out the glass bottles he obtained from the inventory.

"I haven't figured out exactly what the others do yet, except for the regeneration potion."

The contents of the glass bottles contained the energy of life and various other energies mixed together.

Sung JiHan had tried eating some of them himself and carefully examined the energy inside a few others.

But when he ate the contents of the glass bottles, he only sensed a slight increase in the eternal power within him.

He couldn't obtain any significant results.

"Among these, I should give one with the weakest life force."

Sung JiHan chose the lowest quality item among the glass bottles he collected.

"How do I send it?"

[Oh. Are you really giving it? Wait a moment...!]

Just when Sung JiHan thought the message from Calain had been cut off.

A new window appeared in front of Sung JiHan.

[Sponsor Seat 'Seat of the Dead Star' demands an offering.]

[Please place an item.]

After the message ended, a black mist swirled in front of him.

Sung JiHan also put the glass bottle in.

Then, as the black energy disappeared, a message arrived from Calain.

[Oh...! Hey. Is this something useful? Hey. You gave me something good!]

"Oh? I don't know what's useful, so I just gave you one. But what is it used for?"

Sung JiHan, who naturally lied, asked about the usefulness of the glass bottle.

[Hehe... This is probably the purified energy of the World Tree. It will increase the maximum limit of vitality.]

"It increases vitality. It seems to have had a similar effect to the fruit of the World Tree."

"That's the effect ordinary players feel. This one is so well purified that it can be applied to the level of a Seat."

"Is it purer?"

"Yes. I haven't seen other glass bottles, so I don't know if everyone has the same purpose."

Purified energy of the World Tree.

So, by consuming this, eternal power increases.

"I should set aside some time later and consume all of it."

Maybe I can even raise the Eternal stat from 2 to 1.

When Sung JiHan decided on the purpose of using the glass bottle.

"It's too much for me to just post one message on the bulletin board. I'll upload a related video!"

"Oh. Really? Thank you."

Calain, who was very satisfied with the contents of the glass bottle, said he would even upload a video.

"So, participate in the Arena quickly. I'll upload a video related to that."

"Understood."

Regardless of the number of subscribers, Sung JiHan planned to participate in the Arena for the purpose of leveling up.

Sung JiHan immediately applied to participate in the Space Arena.

"Will you participate in the Space Arena?"

"I am a rookie of the Space Arena. I will receive rookie benefits."

"I am a VIP member. The Arena participation fee is exempted."

With the rookie benefit, the Arena participation fee, which was 700 billion GP, was discounted by 30 percent.

But VIP members were exempt from all of it, possessing a powerful effect.

"I belong to the Master League."

"I belong to Arena 'Master - 1' area."

"I will be matched with players from the Master League...."

"The match has been made."

"You will be summoned to the Arena in 24 hours."

"That was fast."

As soon as he applied to participate in the Arena, the game matching proceeded quickly.

Sung JiHan informed Calain of this fact.

"I did it. It's in 24 hours."

"Oh. Really? Where were you matched?"

"Master - 1."

"Master 1? There are a lot of alts there... It would have been nice if you were assigned to 2."

Even though Calain said that.

"Okay. Then let's go watch the video of 10 trillion GP."

Sung JiHan immediately fulfilled his promise.

***

Space Arena.

One of the places where GP moves the most on Battle.net.

Those who have become penniless after failing in betting were wandering around like ghosts, searching for a big win.

-Is there no big win anywhere?

-I've gathered GP as a collateral for a planet... Where should I bet? Please, save me... If I fail this time, all 100 million of my clan will die!

└ You're the reason they'll die lol

└ This guy is a real ruler of the throne, huh -_-

Whenever the arena opens, there are often betting-related posts on the official member bulletin board.

What caught the attention of these people recently was a post by the Sung JiHan, the Seat of the Dead Star.

He recommended betting on a low-ranking species player, stating that consecutive wins were expected, and attached a video of betting 10 trillion GP.

And the official members who immediately reacted to this post.

[Did you see the post recommended by Death Star?]

He recommended a low-ranking species player, and in the video, he bet 10 trillion GP.

This player has a VIP membership and seems to be somewhat skilled.

But still, he's a low-ranking species...

Do you think he's worth betting on, members?

└ I subscribed and took a look because Death Star invested, but he's just average in the low-ranking...

└ Betting on a low-ranking species is a 100% loss. It's difficult to overcome the difference in class. I didn't see Death Star like this, I'm disappointed this time.

└ Honestly, this player seemed okay. He seems to have talent. But he was assigned to Master -1, which is where all the high-ranking seats' alts are. The betting difficulty here is the highest.

└ That's right. If you mess up, you suddenly bring the main seat's seat power.

└ I'm just investing 100,000 GP for fun. I realized I've never bet on a low-ranking species lol

Most of the evaluations were generally negative despite having a VIP membership, probably due to the limitations of being a low-ranking species.

The only slightly positive evaluations were predictions that he wouldn't achieve high scores since he was assigned to Master -1 in the arena.

"Are you going to survive because of the low-ranking species?"

Sung JiHan smirked and said, and the Shadow Queen responded.

"Well, actually, there's no case where a low-ranking species survives. In the Space League."

"Really, none at all?"

"Well... that's right. The longer you survive in the Space League, the more the species evolves. Even if the survivors want to stay in the low-ranking, they end up evolving to the intermediate or high-ranking due to the species evolution effect."

"I see."

"Since there are occasional evolution bonuses as special rewards in the arena, it's good to give it a try. Even the alts of the Seats are participating with that in mind."

Sung JiHan's eyes sparkled at those words.

There are such bonuses in the arena?

"Let's try to rise to the intermediate level once."

As the human species grows, it will eventually become a "+1" for Sung JiHan himself.

Since he was participating anyway, Sung JiHan decided to take advantage of the special rewards in the arena as well.

"Owner. The number of foreign subscribers has exceeded 3,000! And the views on the videos of the battle with the World Tree Elves are skyrocketing on the foreign side. Maybe because they're strong opponents... I'll continue to upload videos focusing on that side!"

Most of Sung JiHan's videos were of foreign species that he would just skim through or not even play.

But the video of the battle with the World Tree Elves had gained quite a few views.

-He's not weak for a low-ranking origin, huh?

-Did he even overpower the High Elves? Should I bet a little?

And a few replies from foreign species who started running.

"Yes. Recently, I've been focusing on videos, so please give me some requests."

Sung JiHan entrusted the video organization to Yi Ha-yeon and...

[Summoned to the arena.]

I was forcibly summoned to the arena.

[Would you like to broadcast a live video to the extraterrestrial race?]

When I turned on BattleTube, a new message appeared.

When Sung JiHan pressed "yes," the chat window split into two.

"Oh, it's an arena... It seems different from regular games."

"This time, you won't be cut off in 10 minutes, right?"

"Who knows? If it's a 1:1 match, you might get devoured even faster."

The Earthlings were naturally expecting Sung JiHan's victory, but they were also anxious that the game might end too quickly.

"100 million lives of your fellow beings are at stake. Just win one game! If you win, I'll even sponsor you!"

"100 million villains eventually bet on the lowest rank, lol."

"To dominate the lowest rank race... Your race living on the stars is pitiful."

"But if that gambling addict loses his star, he'll find a good owner, right? Haha."

"Watching the live video, the human race doesn't seem impressive. They can't even win one game."

Even while watching Sung JiHan's live video, the extraterrestrial races showed skeptical reactions.

"Oh. But still, the number of extraterrestrial viewers is quite high."

Although there were only 3,000 subscribers, the number of simultaneous viewers quickly reached 5,000.

"Hmm... But even if it exceeds 5,000, the Star Buff doesn't activate."

The Star Buff activates only when the total viewership exceeds a certain threshold.

Even though Sung JiHan managed to attract quite a few extraterrestrial viewers, the Star Buff remained inactive.

And then...

"Matching the opponent..."

"The Prince of the Three-Headed Six-Arms is matched."

Sigh...

A massive figure appeared on the other side of the arena.

With three heads and six hands, the giant figure wore armor and looked down at Sung JiHan.

"The Prince of the Three-Headed Six-Arms is still here?"

"It's so annoying, the sub-character of the Holy See, lol."

"Aaaah, why is he here on my planet? T.T"

As soon as he appeared, the chat in the extraterrestrial chat window already seemed to have accepted defeat.

And the three-headed giant...

"Lowest rank..."

Looking at Sung JiHan, he removed his armor and weapons himself.

"It's not worth wearing equipment for someone like you."

The three-headed giant was left in only his underwear.

He slowly approached Sung JiHan, spreading his six hands wide.

A light touch, as if swatting a fly.

But the power contained within it was definitely not to be underestimated.

However...

"You did well not to wear armor."

Sigh...

Eclipse emerged from Sung JiHan's hand.

"Not wearing it gave you an excuse for losing."

Crack!

The three-headed giant flew through the air.

And a brief message appeared.

[Winner: Sung JiHan.]

The first match ended in an instant.
