Steel Eating Player - A Player Who Eats Steel

Chapter 142 Suwon, Black Dragon Hunt 1

Lee Hyun-wook's press conference suddenly caused a big uproar.

– [Breaking News] Did you know the key method of attacking Steelein and Dragon? The truth is ...

First of all, unparalleled attention is focused on his 'clear attack method '.

It is not considered empty. His performance so far has been the foundation.

However, Edward Woods denied it directly.

– Slayer's spokesman said, "Steelane's claim was not reliable at all " and refused to cooperate

– How to attack more definitely than Dragon Killer? Is that true?

All kinds of media talk about it all day, and it becomes an increasingly big issue.

– Tight competition for command of dragon attack operations, Steel Line VS Dragon Killer, who won?

As a result, competition between the two sides intensified, and sparks began to fly everywhere even before the dragon appeared.

Some people are starting to take a more serious interest in this interesting fight ... ...

'As expected, gamblers gather after kissing it.'

Various betting platforms around the world began to raise this issue to the main page.

Competition between famous players is more exciting than anything.

That's how 'Steel Lane' and 'Dragon Slayer' do media battles over dragons ... ...

It is clear that the conditions must be very large, enough to withdraw money from all over the world.

'this ... ... Maybe make money? '

Lee Hyun-wook also asked Park Chul-soo to give a small amount as a bet.

At this rate, I didn't know that such a noisy situation would bring unexpected benefits.

However, as if Lee Hyun-wook wasn't the only one who had such thoughts, the board of directors began to grow even bigger.

***

" ... ... I still clearly remember that day."

The Dragon Killer, Edward Woods, was sitting in the study in the hotel suite. He looked into the air with an expression of excellence somewhere, and four cameras worked around him.

"Three years ago, a large monster spewing fire appeared in London ... "

"—Naga, it is the first appearance of an unprecedented creature. "

"Yes, it is an unbeatable disaster. "

He exchanged dialogues with the man sitting in front of him, who appeared to be a PD, as if he had finished his union.

"This time, you face the dragon for the second time. That's a bad relationship. "

"No, I think this is fate, not bad luck. That's the path I took. "

This happened before the dragon attack was filmed for promotional broadcasts.

After a while, when the shooting was over, PD smiled and handed the business card to the guild members.

"Then, I will come to film the preparatory process for the Slave Alliance starting tomorrow! "

From those words, I know that this isn't just a promotional shoot.

The whole big event will be made a reality program.

"Killer, I will support you! "

"Destroy, like steel! "

Shortly after the cameraman left the hotel room, Amanda Anderson approached with a worried expression.

"Boss, are you alright with this? Live broadcast ... Won't the strength of our team be seen? "

Edward Woods smiled at it. His smile was full of excitement.

"That's all, I have spoken well with platform representatives so that we can stop them properly at important times. "

"Ah, but ... to be honest, I rarely see battle scenes broadcast live, so I'm honestly worried. "

Scenes of fighting with monsters are usually brutal, so I can't appear on national TV radio. Although some internet platforms have licenses and services, large guilds are reluctant to follow the broadcast itself.

Because, the risk of power dissent is greater than the impact of publicity that can be obtained through broadcasting.

In other words, Edward Woods bet enough on this game to take such a big risk.

"Steelane provocation that can't be explained ... I honestly worry on one side, but it's better. "

He took a cup of coffee with a relaxed expression and looked out the window at Laputa.

"Steelane, he has done a good job so far ... "

Saying so, he turned and looked around his team-mates.

"If we choose the strongest player at the moment, there will be more handsome people than him, but the most famous player today ... and the most controversial player is Stilane, right? "

There is something sharp in his eyes.

"If we can defeat him in this attack, the reputation of our guild will skyrocket ... "

is one of the best guilds in the UK, but doesn't have much global fame. However, there is an opportunity to improve in a way that they can only do, called the Dragon Attack.

As a teacher, I cannot help but take advantage of this opportunity.

'Catch the first adult dragon, defeat the giant named Steelein ... ... '

A big event that will never happen again is held for the Slayers.

***

At the Laputa Order Tower, Lee Hyun-wook, Kim Se-hee, Park Jun-mo, and Lee Jeong-jun are sitting on the couch in front of a large TV.

– ... ... Guild attracts public attention because it has announced that they will broadcast the dragon attack process directly through the internet platform! In addition, the process of the future will be made into a documentary ... ...

"What? Direct and documentary? You will turn this situation into a TV show, what! "

After hearing the news, Se-hee Kim raised his voice and expressed his displeasure.

"Isn't that a sign that you will embarrass this boss and show off all over the world? "

To be honest, Lee Hyun-wook understood to some extent that it came out from the other side.

The guild founded by Edward Woods has a spiritual origin in the hunt for dragon castles in London. It was a guild gathered by the survivors at the time and built it with the fame and wealth they gained ... ...

In other words, for them, this dragon hunt will be a monumental event that will be recorded in the history of the guild.

It is a natural desire to use this case properly to increase the value of guild names.

However, using a situation where our country is trampled by the broadcasting world is rather arrogant ... ...

"Those kids, you say what solidarity is with your mouth, but in the end you will take care of me, right? "

"I mean! I don't know about documentaries made to be recorded, but what fight are you talking about directly? "

Lee Jeong-jun and Kim Se-hee made nasty comments on the Slayers Guild, one by one.

But undeniable, this disaster has been used as entertainment.

Maybe the whole city will be destroyed, and many people will die,

Even so, many watch the process while eating popcorn or chicken in front of the TV.

'Do the audience cry or feel joy ... ... Most of them enjoy it instinctively. '

This phenomenon is not just a problem now, nothing more than human natural instincts.

Even in the era before the game began, what was your view of war in a faraway country?

Not a few people see who will win and how, with a pretty interesting view.

It's a pretty troublesome fact, but a disaster that you don't feel is easily replaced by entertainment.

"No, what the regiment said a few days ago, and they are hypocrites even thinking of making a show, of course! "

However, if he really wants to make a show there, Hyunwook Lee will decorate the show well.

" ... ... The show will be a huge success. "

Hearing Lee Hyun-wook's words, everyone sitting in front of the TV turned their heads.

"Huh?"

"Yes?"

Everyone looked at their faces, wondering what they meant.

"And at its climax ... we will stand there. "

He rose from his seat and applauded.

"Come on, we begin to prepare again step by step for the perfect surprise show. "

Then everyone rose from his seat and began their respective missions.

It was preparation to achieve the perfect strategy designed by Lee Hyun-wook.

'The pride of the Dragon Killer seems to have been accidentally destroyed? '

Edward Woods, he is a good hero, but the pride of being a Dragon Killer is too strong.

First of all, his current identity is known when he captures the Red Dragon sub-form ...

'Just because I touched him, wouldn't he turn black like a criminal? '

Hyunwook Lee plans to take the entire Dragon Killer show.

***

Seven more days have passed since then.

Meanwhile, guilds attract attention by broadcasting from time to time.

– Attack Team Interview Episode 2, Walls of Wales, Armand Anderson is scheduled to appear

– The world's attention is focused on the introduction of 'Dragon Weapons' through broadcasts

Sooner or later, public opinion changes and prefers Slayers over Stiles.

In addition, the flow of betting sites also began to predict the dominance of Slayers.

Simply put, it is a kind of water vehicle.

'Okay, leaning more in that direction ... ... '

For Lee Hyun-wook who bet on him, that was a good thing.

Around that time, Lee Hyun-wook also received an offer to broadcast the attack process.

Representatives from the Internet broadcasting platform in Korea came and offered contracts on good terms.

They have convinced them that they can get tens of billions of dollars if they are determined and promoted.

However, Lee Hyun-wook firmly refused.

'Really dragon ... ... You can't make a work that will make you tired even if you focus all your attention on it. '

Then, there was talk of blocking filmmaking at the source because there was something on Steelein's side.

Maybe Internet broadcasters, who have been rejected, spread evil rumors.

– Slayers VS Steelein, world choices increasingly lead to Slayers ... ...

Looking at news articles like that, Lee Hyun-wook wants to lean sharper.

Two days later, the Killer Alliance established a front headquarters in the southern part of Suwon and began conducting garrisons.

Lee Hyun-wook and his men are still waiting in Laputa, waiting for the right time.

'There is no information exactly when the Dragon Gate will be opened. '

According to Donald Harris estimates, within 30 days of that time.

'Since that day, today is the 21st day, so the gate will be opened soon. '

Even without such information, the Slayers move on time like veteran players.

It is intuition that we have reached a certain threshold by using experience so far as big data.

– [Breaking News] Slayers Alliance mobilizes all attacking forces into the southern part of Gyeonggi Province (1 step)

In line with this atmosphere, emergency evacuation orders were issued earlier throughout the Republic of Korea.

The entire population of southern Gyeonggi-do who is expected to become a battlefield has no choice but to flee to the south.

In addition, tens of thousands of AMT troops surrounded the southern region of Gyeonggi-do and installed a blocking line.

The Slayers show also highlights the tragedy that will befall Korea rather than their publicity. A scene is broadcast about Edward Woods climbing a building and looking down at the Korean exit.

– ... ... This can really be a tragedy. We must end this disaster as soon as possible.

The anticipation that seemed like a big festival until a few days ago turned into intense tension overnight. To compensate for the atmosphere, the sky is also gloomy, giving rise to dark light.

Rumbling –

The city center in the southern part of Gyeonggi-do has stopped.

However, only the broadcasting industry throughout the world is still hot.

And 36 hours later, finally a strange event began in the Suwon area.

– warning! The invasion of 'Angra Mainyu Corps ' in the area will begin soon!

A warning system message that appears in front of all players in the area ... ...

Everyone's attention is focused on Suwon, and all players move to Suwon.

***

As a sign of disaster, the Korean Peninsula is still covered in dark clouds.

– Once again today, I think I will discuss this topic all day long.

– Yes. We don't know when the dragon will appear, so we are always standby.

– Hahaha- There he is. I can't even sleep because of this lately.

The preview program of the famous American player "Kill the Monster" also focused on the incident.

Tyrone Thompson, now ranked 5th in the ranking of US players, came out and commented.

– Now, if you look back, the Killer Alliance forces in Suwon are moving.

On the big screen behind them, a map of Suwon and the layout of the Killer Association appeared in their minds.

– A total of 1,561 players, more than 80% of whom are class B players or higher, which is an extraordinary level of strength. And most of them searched around Suwon, trying to find the gate first.

At that moment, the screen turned upside down and Steeleane's picture appeared in my mind.

– However ... ... Where is the power of Steelein, it hasn't been seen for several days.

– Well, judging by the reason, I think he might have given up on the initial search. Apparently, the Slave Alliance had more troops, so the initial response was practically abandoned.

When such speculation comes and goes on famous TV shows, public opinion that criticizes Steeanee is increasing.

I can't help but hate it for not making any cues at this interesting event.

Should I say that passive movements in boxing matches are the same as scoffing?

On the other hand, the place that most attracts viewers so far is the official broadcast of the Slayers Guild.

– [LIVE] OFFICIAL Slayers Dragon Attack (SEE: 11,194,551)

This is because it is the only channel where you can see the location of the dragon attack most clearly.

Now, Edward Woods appears directly on the screen, raising the audience's rating.

He stood on the roof of a building and looked at downtown Suwon.

"I— DS, if you are not busy, I will ask you."

Outside the screen, DS— Dragon Killer nods to the PD question.

"The dragon that will appear this time is a black dragon, what kind of dragon is that? "

This is a question written in the script, and this is a directive that will emphasize the appearance of a dragon expert.

"Well, as is known, the type of dragon depends on its color. The London dragon I killed was 'Red' and had the power of fire.

And the Black Dragon is indeed expected ... ... "

He paused for a moment, then tried to explain, when he heard a scream from somewhere.

"-Open!"

Which is open now ... ... Of course, there is only the gate.

The camera rotates and focuses towards the sound it sounds.

A man opened the roof door and ran in a hurry.

"Crab, gate ya— five, in one place, open at the same time! "

These are 5 double gates ... ... Has there ever been anything other than waves in history?

After hearing the news, all Slayers Guild felt tense and waited for orders.

"Boss, look at this. "

Then lieutenant Edward Woods brought the tablet PC.

The screen is connected to the camera from the Mana drone which is a few kilometers away.

Shortly thereafter, the broadcast screen was also diverted to the point of view of the drone camera.

woo woo woo–

Somewhere in the southern city center of Suwon, five gates were opened with a distance of about 500m.

Five flashing purple flashes ... ... something flowed out of it.

It was a two-headed ogre that first appeared, and there were six of them.

Elephants the size of buildings followed successively, and black-haired gnolls burned on it.

After that, a red-skinned troll wearing armor appeared in line.

This is just the opening, but the whole is beautiful to make you forget the main dish, Naga.

" ... Angra Mainyu Corps, that's all."

Edward Woods looked away from the screen and raised his head, and the camera took another picture.

It was a very urgent situation, but Edward Woods, who had a calm expression on his face, cheered in the broadcast chat window.

The spear he carried on his back ... ... the dragon's spear was slowly pulled down.

And turning around with a sad expression, he looked at the executives of the Slayers Alliance.

"Everyone, the time has come. From now on, dragon attack operations begin —"

But he cut off his voice, and a woman's sharp voice was heard.

"—He arrived first! "

This is not the worst NG.

NG that really ruins this amazing view ... ...

But the noise did not stop there.

"S, Stilane, he, he's at the scene! "

At that time, create a scene that can make you feel that the broadcast screen has stopped.

Edward Woods, alone on screen, did not move, and no one spoke.

The heavy silence that is often talked about, the atmosphere that suddenly suffocates, and things like that go round and round all over the screen.

'How can you do this so fast ... ... '

It was a very quick appearance, as if he already knew where the gate would appear.

As a result, their first strategy to destroy Stilane's momentum by pushing it from the start was in vain. There was a moment of silence among the Slayers executives who knew that fact.

" ..."

After a moment of silence, Edward Woods looked at the camera casually.

Now, the whole world is witnessing this situation. And that is a sight that will last a long time.

If he shows a sign of shame here, he will be the material of world banter.

"That was unexpected. This is Steelein's headquarters, Korea. "

He smiled casually. It's full of reflexes to respond to NG.

"Now! Don't forget, the goal is to become a dragon. "

"Oh, so you accidentally rushed in? "

PD asked and he did not answer. I just smiled brightly again.

"However, the dragon will not come out during the first eruption. And no matter how much Steel rain fell, he would not be able to handle the first eruption that fast. And vice versa ... "

He turned to look at downtown Suwon and frowned slightly.

" ... ... I'm afraid I'll get angry if I act too hastily. We have to move fast. "

It felt like he was a bit worried about his competitor, Steeleane.

But later, another scene is directed.

"I ... Boss, I got a message from which messenger."

Lieutenant Edward Woods walked over, holding which messenger.

"Yes? Who are you talking to? "

"I, that, that ... "

Not a single word was mentioned, but everyone, everyone who watched this broadcast knew it.

Steelein, he was the one who contacted the Dragon Killer.

" ..."

I don't know what that means, but because it's aired, I can't help it.

And the picture is very strange talking calmly alone without being broadcast.

– Beautiful— This is Lee Hyun-wook.

As such, his voice echoed in the Slayers broadcast.

– I will warn you first just in case.

" ..."

– Please stay away from the gate for a while.

"Yes? What do you mean? "

– I'm telling you not to get caught up in my attack.

"Um ... We know very well the firepower of Steelein, but I don't know if it will work this time too. "

Steel Rain, that's good, but not enough to kill a two-headed ogre or gray troll.

However, it is not possible to blow up as many landmines as on Ganghwa Island before.

"Maybe you tried dropping Mowglay from a low altitude, but to be honest ... "

– I warned you clearly. So, good luck.

Thus, which communication messenger ends.

one-sided notice ... ... suddenly entered, damaged the beautiful picture and disappeared.

Finally, Edward Woods's eyebrows twitched twice.

At that time —

"— Which detector to catch something strange! "

Another NG starts.

"It looks like which flight is very large, flying over the clouds!"

On the clouds, it turns out the sky is covered in dark clouds entirely.

" ... Yes? Could the Black Dragon have appeared? "

When one executive asked a question, Edward Woods shook his head.

"Isn't that Lee Hyun-wook's steel fleet? Ha— What is this? "

However ...

" ... ... No, not both. Much bigger to come. "

Hearing those words, everyone held their breath and looked at the north sky.

After a while ...

Go-oh-oh-oh–

That is nothing but what appears after penetrating thick dark clouds like a translucent curtain ... ...

"No, that doesn't make sense ... "

It is a floating city, Laputa.

Go-oh-oh-oh–

This heavy object appeared above the city center, in a visible area, with dark clouds buried in it.

The steel fleet stood tall around it, compensating for it.

It was like seeing an aircraft carrier, a frigate surrounding it, and an aircraft carrier squadron.

At that time, people all over the world realized it.

The famous Laputa always hovers in the sky.

Above all, it is an existence that can fly freely.

I've never moved this far, so I didn't realize it ...

The first long-distance flight of a transcendental object, the goal is ... ...

Aji Dahaka, it is a black dragon hunt.
