The Divine Genius’s Game Broadcasting Chapter 372

Episode 372 – Second Missing Link (8)

Local users based in the European channel, members of the 'Guilty Pleasure' alliance, could not believe their eyes.

“What, why are there so many?”

<I wondered why the channel was saturated…>

Wow, they're all gathered here.

The sight of countless sailing ships filling the sea was a strange sight to them.

Of course, it was natural for this many people to gather when conquering a world boss, but at least that didn't happen on this channel.

That wasn't the only thing they couldn't understand.

“Is that the Korean flag?”

What? Are all these people Korean?

<There is a separate Korean channel, so why…?>

<And it doesn't seem like we're even in the same guild?>

Players' nationalities could overlap. Originally, World Bosses were more often participated in groups, such as alliances, legions, or guilds or fleets, rather than individually.

But this was the first time a single nation had existed without a guild unit. Why were these people gathered together when they weren't even part of a guild?

But even that wasn't what surprised them.

“Wait a minute, are those guys… tearing apart the Kraken’s tentacles?”

Oh my goodness.

What on earth are Koreans thinking about?

Wow, this is truly the land of the movie "Old Man." They even eat octopuses alive and tear apart krakens.

Their attack method was a fresh shock to them. The union leader and members relayed what they had witnessed to those who hadn't logged in via chat.

Hundreds of Koreans are connected? On a European channel?

Koreans are tearing apart the Kraken? What the heck?

[It's too insincere for a lie made up to get you to log in…]

[Do you think that makes sense now?]

The response that came back was one of skepticism.

The union leader felt wronged, but soon let out a hollow laugh. It was certainly a sight you couldn't believe unless you saw it for yourself.

“Huh, what’s even more surprising is that I haven’t even told you yet.”

<So! Why on earth does that method work!?>

<We set off right after hearing the news, but the Kraken's health has already decreased by that much…>

<In fact, it is the best strategy that has been released so far.>

The Union leader thought about it for a moment.

"I wonder if there's some kind of event going on in Korea. I wonder if we can join in…"

The attack seemed to be going smoothly.

While I could contribute here, I also had the potential to be a distraction. It was already too late to claim the top spot in the contribution rankings.

<Shouldn't it be time to start preparing for phase 2 now?>

Why doesn't it stop?

<Maybe… you don’t know how to use the 2nd phase strategy?>

But as the attacks continued, they began to express their concerns.

“Oh my, you really don’t know? I should go and tell you!”

The Union leader reached a conclusion and set a course.

If you go into phase 2 without preparation, the damage will be severe.

* * *

Lee Kyung-bok was satisfied as he watched the Kraken's stamina dwindle.

“Good. Everyone is doing a great job!”

Another tentacle was broken.

Not only his fleet, but other fleets also became more proficient and their speed gradually increased.

-Wow haha I tore it (it's true)

-Is conquering the world bosses always this fast?

-Oh, don't you know? Even Godple can speedrun world bosses?

– Speedrun expert Smer Su-beom lol

-Who the hell does this strategy? LOL

The viewers were equally satisfied. Lee Kyung-bok was checking the route, aiming for another tentacle.

'Oh, are they other players?'

I could sense the energy approaching through the divine. I thought it was targeting the world boss.

'It feels better than I thought, doesn't it?'

The energy he felt from them was stronger than he'd expected. So, instead of setting off immediately, he waited for their arrival.

-Huh? Someone's coming!

-European Ebung appears!

-Huh? Are you a pirate?

-The world boss battles are all neutral so it's okay lol

-Is it too late? There's almost nothing left, right?

-5252, there's nothing left where the Black Fleet passes!

-The locals will probably be really confused lol

Viewers also confirmed their approach. But soon, a question mark appeared in the chat room.

[STOP!]

[NO! NONONO!]

[Don't Attack Kraken!]

It was because of the speech bubble floating above their sailboat. Lee Kyung-bok, as well as the viewers, widened their eyes.

“Oh, you want me to stop now?”

-What is it? Why is it like that?

-Aren't you doing that because you want to make the most of the remaining portion?

-Do I have to speak in English?

-Huh! Let's spread the word and summon!

-Is this machine translation? LOL

-No interpreter?!

While Lee Gyeong-bok was wondering what to do, a member of the fleet spoke up.

<You seem to be French. I speak some French, so would you like me to interpret for you?>

“Oh? Is that so?! Then I’ll call you up to the deck.”

Their flag was the French flag.

When Lee Kyung-bok called him, the viewers burst into laughter.

-The interpreter came out right away lol

-Ugh! As expected, it's the pervert's turn lol

-Are you really jealous of standing next to Godple?

-This is why people have to learn!

The fleet member who claimed to be an interpreter immediately translated Lee Gyeong-bok's words and displayed them in a speech bubble.

[Why are you telling me to stop?]

[Oh! You speak French?]

[You need to prepare before entering phase 2!]

[The Kraken body appears when HP is at 20%!]

Lee Kyung-bok and the viewers who received the content opened their eyes wide.

“Oh, there’s a second phase too. I guess I need to prepare something separately.”

But Lee Kyung-bok wasn't overly worried. If something had seemed off, he would have instinctively sensed it.

-Oh lol the other fleets are leaving too

-Look at how perceptive the listeners are lol

-I'm watching the whole broadcast!

-Hahaha it was so close hahahaha

There was no need to issue separate instructions. The other fleets monitoring the broadcast ceased their attack.

But there were some who couldn't do that.

[WORLD BOSS]

[Kraken – 20%]

The screen changed as health reached 20% with a loud bang.

Everyone was wondering what was going on, when they heard Park Joo-ho's voice.

<Oh, it was too late to cancel the order.>

Mobile users failed to cancel the commands they had entered. While the damage from the bombardment was minimal, their remaining health was so low that they met the criteria for Phase 2.

The screen was a bird's-eye view, a bird's-eye view of the sea surrounded by gigantic, swaying tentacles, and beneath them, a dark shadow slowly began to spread.

“Wow… something big has arrived.”

Lee Kyung-bok let out a small gasp as the sensation pierced his entire body. The shadow inflated in an instant, then grew to the size of a small island.

Then, literally, a huge shape appeared above the water, like an island rising up.

It was a monstrous creature, a cross between an octopus and a squid. Four bright yellow eyes were embedded in its head, and its vertically gaping mouth was larger than most caves.

-ㅁㅊ It's the world boss;;;

-Now that I look at it, the tentacles are so cute, right?

-???: Looking at it again, she looks like a fairy!

-You're saying I have to catch it with a cannon?

-What is this ㅋㅋ It's telling me to destroy an islandㅋㅋㅋㅋ

While viewers were thrilled by it, European players were gloomy.

[Oh no! It's too late!]

[Ah… This will take longer than phase 1]

[The original strategy was to sprinkle oil first!]

Lee Kyung-bok blinked at their chat.

“Oil?”

Why is oil suddenly mentioned in the strategy? Surprisingly, some viewers even posted comments agreeing with the idea.

-ㅇㅇ You need to buy oil among the trade goods and bring it.

-Huh! You can use that as a weapon too!

-Originally, before going to phase 2, you should pour oil in the center and then set it on fire when it comes out lol

-It's standard to catch it with dot damage lol

-I thought if I spread oil again, the US military would come haha

-???: Pakshi! Do you want to taste democracy?

-US military, f*ck lol

They were experienced players who already knew the strategy. Other viewers questioned him.

-Why are you telling me that now?

-It's a gold medal so this is correct lol

-That's true, and this is also a pay-to-win method, lol

-How much oil would it take to burn something that big? LOL

Lee Kyung-bok understood the situation.

Meanwhile, the 2-page cutscene ends and the Kraken begins its counterattack.

“Everyone, step back for now!”

Lee Kyung-bok quickly gave instructions. At the same time, the Kraken's tentacles moved.

-What? What are the wave heights?

-Isn't the speed really fast?

-Hey! It's falling!

-???: Get out of here! Get in the corner!

– King Bang Bakery's famous quote that appears only when you go to the Gwangyeokgi areaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Tall, fast waves, raging waves, engulfed the sailboat. This was the Kraken's first attack pattern.

“The smaller ships will just sink due to the knockback.”

Lee Kyung-bok quickly analyzed the situation.

Other ships that failed to evade were overturned and sunk to the bottom of the sea. The ships with higher speeds managed to barely hold on.

-No, what the f*ck, if we do this, we won't be able to fire!

-Immediately. Charged.

-It's not like I'm paying, but I have to avoid the waves and aim for another place?

-You're doing a rotation while avoiding the wide area attack, lol

-Something is bubbling?

-Hey! Here we go again!

The Kraken's attack pattern didn't end there. Black ink poured down on the sailing ship, which had barely managed to survive the rough seas.

<This is an abnormal condition! Those affected cannot sail!>

Park Joo-ho shouted in surprise.

Tentacles sprouted around the sailing ships, which had turned black from being covered in ink, and wrapped around several of them at the same time, lifting them up.

Then the Kraken swallowed the ships as if they were snacks.

"Wow, the tidal wave is fine, but I'll have to be careful with this one. It seems like a wide-area instant death attack."

-No lol why are you amazed!

-This guy ㅋㅋ He likes it because it's difficult ㅋㅋㅋ

-???: Huh? Look at this?

-???: Did you destroy one fleet?

-This is a spreadsheet lol

-Difficulty expert smear action lol

When Lee Kyung-bok showed interest, viewers burst into laughter. But not everyone was able to laugh.

[In this case, the number of people is meaningless.]

[We need a high-grade sailing ship and a raiding party armed with Atlantean equipment!]

[Can you please log out others so that our union can help you connect?]

European players suggested it.

Their judgment was that it would be difficult to complete Phase 2 with the current raid and non-paying settings alone.

-This definitely needs some help from the payers.

-Really lol You can't tear the main body with a hook

-It was difficult to even approach it in the first place!

-If you got through phase 1 without paying, you did well lol

-Even if you leave Phase 2 to them, haven't you already taken the contribution ranking?

-How do you beat the world boss without spending any money? lol

Viewers were disappointed, but also sympathetic. Wasn't the first phase alone impressive enough?

Lee Kyung-bok said to him with a smile.

“Can you please interpret for me?”

“Oh, yes yes.”

He said as the interpreter prepared to take the chat.

“It’s okay. You don’t have to do that.”

Question marks appeared in the chat window, and the interpreter hesitated, but soon wrote down his answer.

"These people came to me for me, so I can't send them away. It would be unfair if some were to leave and others were to stay."

Both the viewers and the participants were satisfied with those words.

-5252, Are you prioritizing the listener over the strategy? LOL!

-Another fool who only knows the listener…!

-Ah haha stop being so annoying!

-It's a real monster, a monster!

[Just light…!]

[I have no regrets about this time!]

[Perfect consideration is so good, isn't it?]

[But I'm worried that if we just rush in, the broadcast will become a bit loose.]

[I will take up the gun and go out first!]

Both the broadcast chat window and the fleet chat window quickly popped up. Lee Kyung-bok waved his hand and said.

“No, you don’t have to go out! I can wake up quickly.”

It wasn't just a matter of consideration.

“Instead, you just need to cooperate a little.”

Lee Kyung-bok had no intention of delaying the broadcast.

* * *

Lee Kyung-bok has finished preparing for the attack.

“Okay, then let’s go!”

The sailing ship began to move forward with a confident voice, but there were only two of them.

The sailing ship that followed it was also the smallest sailing ship of the three-star class.

-Is this really possible?

– Even though I was listening to the explanation, question marks kept popping up lol

-If it goes according to plan, it doesn't make sense lol That's why it works lol

-If you follow perfect common sense, it will be a 100% success.

-This guy said he'd do it anyway!

-Ah hahaha just take a look first haha

Viewers, though puzzled, didn't hide their anticipation. They knew from experience that in such situations, "witnessing" is easier than "understanding."

At Lee Kyung-bok's approach, the Kraken lashed out with its tentacles. A towering wave of waves surged toward the sailboat, seemingly threatening to swallow it whole.

“Don’t be afraid, just think of it as surfing!”

Lee Gyeong-bok turned the key in an excited voice. The sailboat turned and tilted as it rode the waves.

-Ugh!

-Should I move on? Should I not move on? Should I move on? Should I not move on?

– A man who flirts with waves lol

-Wave-pushing manㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Whatchamacallit;;; Isn't it almost vertical?

-The captain who surfs on a sailboat is coming soon!?

-This won't go over lol

Even the storm had an end.

Lee Kyung-bok safely completed his detour and moved forward again. But the Kraken, as if waiting, sprayed ink.

“The pattern is obvious, right?”

Lee Kyung-bok was not surprised.

Instead, he smiled leisurely and turned the sailboat.

“Get out to the outskirts!”

The scope could be inferred from the shadows cast beneath the ink covering the sky. The sailboat narrowly escaped the shadows.

However, that only applied to Lee Gyeong-bok's sailing ship.

-It's disconnected!

-You can see the tentacles coming out right now lol

-Immediately. Intake

-???: You have to eat it all!

-Kraken Shack is so greedy lol

The small sailboat behind stopped dead in its tracks. Soon, the tentacle-wrapped sailboat headed toward the massive mouth.

“It’s going smoothly!”

Lee Kyung-bok wasn't worried at all. In fact, this was exactly what he wanted.

As the sailboat attempted to approach again, the kraken lashed out with another tentacle, causing a commotion.

'It's important from here on out.'

Lee Kyung-bok focused as he watched the waves fill his field of vision. The information gathered in the slowed time began to align in his mind.

The rising waves, the tilting angle of the ship, the gun barrels rising upwards, and even that perfect timing.

'just now!'

The cannon fired with a roar. The shells fired at a high angle flew into the sky.

'Good.'

That wasn't all.

After completing his detour, Lee Kyung-bok immediately turned and drifted. With him, the cannons on the other side headed toward the Kraken.

“I said I could do it, right?”

A word thrown lightly with a smile. At the same time, a barrage of shells rained down on the Kraken.

-Oh? Ohhhhhh!

-Is that right? Is that right? Is that right?

-Hey lol, you really got this right?

-Let's go!

The audience watched in excitement. The shells, fired into the sky, were falling down.

At the intersection of falling shells and advancing shells, there was a sailing ship that the Kraken was about to devour.

[Quoi?]

[C'est dingue!]

[I did it again lol]

[I really can't believe it lol]

[This works lol]

[Look at the locals being surprised lol]

Beyond the countless floating speech bubbles, shells collided.

Then a huge explosion occurred on the ship, accompanied by a deafening noise.

The tentacles that had been holding it disappeared without a trace, and the Kraken's body sagged, perhaps due to the shock.

"Now! Now! All fleets, fire!"

Lee Kyung-bok wasn't surprised by his stamina depleting. He had already anticipated the outcome, so he immediately gave instructions.

The waiting sailing ships immediately opened their guns.

-Wow lol

-(Gemalcon)(Gemalcon)(Gemalcon)

-I tried translating the local chat and it said 'What?' and 'That's ridiculous!' lol

-It turned out to be a French gemalcon?

-How on earth do you come up with such thoughts? LOL

-Using shareholders' assets as weapons. That's what makes a black company (nods)

Meanwhile, the chat room erupted in cheers. Lee Kyung-bok's strategy was similar to the previous raid on the pirate island fortress.

It was a mobile gunpowder depot that concentrated the gunpowder held by the fleet members on a single sailing ship.

-This is the first time I've seen the towing function used like this lol

-No lol I don't usually think about turning my ship into a bomb lol

-This is harder than the pirate island raid lol

-Kraken Shack, you tried to eat it without knowing anything?

-Is this the perfect popping candy?

-Popping candy f*ck lol

-It kind of burst out of my mouth lol

The method was similar to that used in the Pirate Island raid, but the difficulty was even higher. They had to precisely position the gunpowder depot to be hit by the ink, and use the turbulent waves as angle adjusters to complete the timed bombardment.

At the viewers' admiration, Lee Kyung-bok laughed and then quickly turned his head away.

“It’s more fun than you thought, right?”

The participant who gave the sailboat used as a bomb, the interpreter was there,

“Ugh… Mr. Perpago… I think I understand how you feel…”

He lay flat on the deck, groaning. Lee Gyeong-bok offered to pay for the repairs, but he preferred to board the ship and inspect it himself.

Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy sailboat surfing(?).

“Does this make sense…?”

As if in sympathy with the exhausted man, a hawk came up to him and rubbed its head against his.

Viewers expressed laughter and envy at the sight.

-3-star sailing ship repair costs to conquer Godple? Can't you stand this?

-Honestly, shouldn't I be paying for this?

-I'm really jealous ㅠㅠㅠ

-Me too! I want to be comforted by Permusae too!

-Paradise Pavilion ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ

-Interpreter, you are the winner today!

-Mom! I'll study hard! Mom! I'll study hard!

-Are you studying hard to pass the exam? Lol

While Lee Kyung-bok was laughing, a new message appeared before his eyes.

[WORLD BOSS CLEAR!]

[The great monster 'Kraken' returns to the deep sea thanks to the captain's efforts!]

[1. Purple Fleet (47.2%)]

[2. Purple is a fleet of hook experts (3.4%)

[3. Perpago's Logic Circuit Fleet (2.9%)]

…

As soon as the attack was successful, the contribution ranking appeared.

-No, what the heck lol

-You ate up almost half of the Godple fleet by yourself?

-The fleet that is the weakest group but has the best performance is next!?

-But among them, about half of them were for phase 2, so I did it all by myself lol

-The captain who defeated the Kraken alone is here?!

-Isn't that basic common sense?

Viewers cheered at the clear rankings. Amidst this excitement, European players cautiously chatted.

[Wow, I don't know how to express this.]

[I've been playing this game for a long time, but this is the first time I've seen a strategy like this.]

[If you don't mind, could you tell me what you do?]

The exhausted interpreter quickly relayed the message. Lee Gyeong-bok responded with an awkward smile.

"Oh, it's hard to explain at length, right? Just say I'm a streamer who broadcasts in Korea."

-Oh my gosh, so many things were omitted!

-But if I try to explain it, there are too many achievements, which is another trap lol

-Really lol Where should I start talking lol

-From the root bark?

-???: Sit over there. I'm going to tell you a really cool story.

-Interpreter! Tell them I've been a streamer for four months!

Instead, viewers filled in the requests. I was keeping an eye on the interpreter, wondering what to do.

<I think it would be helpful to add an introduction to the PerTube channel. If they're interested, they'll check it out.>

Park Joo-ho's voice was transmitted through the voice channel, and viewers immediately agreed.

-It's a spread of efficiency!

-I can't resist this promotional opportunity lol

-Seeing is believing right away lol

-Korean manufacturer lol

-Europeans have discovered new continents, but this is the first time they have discovered a new species, right?

-Pertube is really new world level lol

Rather than a detailed explanation, you can just see it.

It was something viewers had already experienced.
