Episode 480 – Helter-skelter (2)
There are no good sinners in hell.
The members who reached the conclusion immediately appeared before the sinners.
“What, what is it!?”
“All of you…!?”
“Did you kill Cerberus…?”
The sinners were astonished and immediately exchanged glances.
“Please, please save us!”
“These vile devils are treating us like slaves!”
“Please, take us out of this hell!”
The image of them boasting about the magnitude of their sins just moments before was nowhere to be seen. They cried and begged for help, as if they were the victims.
-As expected of scammers, you can see them cracking their teeth right away lol
-Ah haha it's already all gone haha
-???: Hey, don't be so annoying
-Be quiet!
-Yeah, no, you guys are being purged^^
The audience was dumbfounded. Decibel and Eclipse responded with actions instead of words.
“If you just save me… Kkeuk!”
“This, this is crazy!”
“Okay, wait a minute!”
The gun fired and a flying hatchet landed between his eyes.
As the sinners fell in an instant, Eclipse reached out, and the cleanly drawn hatchet returned to his grasp.
“It’s truly disgusting.”
“Ugh, that’s right. It’s totally disgusting.”
The chat window echoed the two's reactions. Lee Kyung-bok, watching from behind, furrowed his brow slightly.
'As expected, it won't just pass.'
Bubbles rose from the pool of blood shed by the sinners, accompanied by a tingling discomfort.
Soon the puddle began to bubble, and soon a dark red flame rose above it, forming a magic circle.
“Hey! Fire!? Fire!”
“Your body?”
“I guess it’s the story progressing.”
The background didn't change, but control was lost. As everyone wondered what was going on, the pillar of fire split open and a fierce demon appeared.
“Ha… what the hell is this?”
The devil looked at the dead sinners and showed his sharp teeth in disgust.
“Damn it! I still have a long way to go to meet my quota…! You useless idiots!”
At those words, everyone sensed the devil's true identity.
-Oh lol, I guess that guy is the supervisor.
-You're not angry because he died, but because you couldn't use him?
-I thought you only modified machines, but you also use magic?
-Originally, the devil's basis was magic lol
-If you use machines along with magic, it might be a bit difficult?
– Judging from what he's saying, he seems to be a middle manager too lol
-5252, is this a black company too?
-Why would the magic used by the devil be black magic?
-Is that black? LOL
The supervisor immediately turned his eyes, filled with black pupils, towards the members.
“These are unusable, so you guys should fill in some of the quota instead.”
As the overseer raised his hand, a magic circle appeared beneath the criminal's corpse. Soon, the corpse floated, and the scattered mineral fragments, as if drawn to a magnet, became embedded in the corpse.
“Minerals make up the body…!”
“Wow, it looks like some kind of zombie!”
“They’re similar, but they’re not zombies, they’re mines.”
“Those demons and mines are the ones we have to deal with in Area 2.”
The corpse's body was metalized in places, and its arms had transformed into blades. As soon as the transformation was complete, control returned.
-Your body is firm.
-Really? For a mob, it seems to have some defense?
-Doesn't it matter to King Chi?
-Ah haha I already prepared everything
-The scammers die twice!
Viewers weren't worried. Instead, they looked forward to the members' performances. Unlike before, hadn't they already completed an upgrade?
As the full-scale battle began, the members lived up to expectations.
“I’ll cover you!”
Decibel immediately replaced his magazine with armor-piercing bullets and struck the rushing mines. Eclipse then charged forward without hesitation, using a second boost, closing the distance between herself and the mines.
He put his shield forward and tried out the new feature.
“Hmm! This is useful!”
A bolt of electricity blasted forward, sweeping through the mines. Eclipse swung her spear at one of the paralyzed enemies, who remained unharmed.
"this…!"

But Mine's body wasn't cut off in one go. The spear got stuck in his body and got stuck.
The mine, made from a dead corpse, felt no pain, so it tried to counterattack.
This was a moment that made Eclipse and the viewers gasp.
-oh?
-What?!
-Close!
-Oh my gosh lol this isn't even at the level of a quick fix lol
-Really lol it's flying away like it's going to explode
-Plasma amplification what?!
Suddenly, the plasma blade expanded, splitting the mine in two. Lee Kyung-bok's overclocked drone was now connected to the Eclipse suit.
-Haha, is the buff effect certain?
-No;; But is it really this strong?
-What the heckㅋㅋㅋ This hyung's overclocking control is also awesomeㅋ
-Wow, look at the gauge increase rate lol
-What are you watching now?
Viewers were immediately surprised. The overclocked drone worked just fine, but further tweaking was required to maximize its effectiveness.
“It’s simple, right?”
It was a method of precisely removing bad sectors that appeared on the left and right, like the game of Cheonggi Baekgi that everyone is familiar with.
Lee Kyung-bok continued to eliminate without a single moment of rest and without making a single mistake.
"Mmm! The equipment is as light as a feather! Thank you, Purple Lord!"
Eclipse felt the change and expressed his gratitude. Unlike before, he cut through the mine quickly and powerfully.
“What the…!”
The supervisor gritted his teeth as he watched the mines fall in an instant. Soon, the creature extended its modified arm toward Eclipse. A bright red light rose, as if a blood vessel were pulsating.
“Wipe it all away at once…?”
The supervisor, who had been grinning wickedly, opened his eyes wide. Suddenly, the light surrounding the robotic arm disappeared.
“Stop the equipment! Huh? It’s working fine!?”
The genome whined at the sight. The EMP he detonated had precisely targeted the supervisor.
-Ah haha I was going to make that joke!
-You even stole the listeners' jokes?
-Please use EMP well!
-Look at the devil's butt lol
-Skill cancel is annoying, right? You can't do anything?
As the Overseer's surprise attack failed, the Mines found themselves in even greater straits. The creature crumpled his face, reached out, and drew a magic circle.
Along with it, flames shot up and the pillar of fire split apart as it had done at first.
“I will never forget this humiliation!”
It seemed they were retreating because the situation was unfavorable. The supervisor tried to hurriedly enter the pillar of fire.
"100 million!"
He stumbled sideways with a dull thud and a single scream. The viewers burst into laughter again at the sight.
-Oh my gosh lol what the heck is that body gag lol
-You can come in as you please, but you can't go out as you please^^
-When did this guy put up a barrier again? LOL
-Controlling barriers while maintaining overclocking?!
-???: Hehe! You can't run away!
-Isn't this embarrassing?
-Where did the devil Gao go? LOL
-I think it would be better to just die here with honor lol
A barrier drone was circling the pillar of fire. The supervisor quickly got up and tried to destroy it.
“Evil is evil!”
I had to block Eclipse's attack, which had suddenly approached me. I barely managed to block it with my robotic arm, avoiding complete dismemberment, but the force of the blow knocked me into the air.
And as if it had been waiting, a bullet flew in front of him.
“Okay, cut!”
As Decibel finished off the shooting, Genome clapped his hands lightly.
-Kya ㅋㅋㅋ So cute ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
-This is fuzzy daisy lol
-Look at how well it fits together lol
-Is it too much to sweep it all away?
-No lol this seems faster than region 1?
Viewers expressed satisfaction with the battle's outcome. Lee Kyung-bok also nodded in agreement.
“I actually finished it faster than Area 1. I didn't even have time to scan it separately.”
“Oh, right! I should have left one more to scan!”
When Decibel said that as if he was saying "Oh no," everyone burst into laughter.
"Hey, it's okay. They'll come out again anyway. And since you saw it, I'm telling you this: demons don't just use machines; they use magic, too. You can see the magic circle before that, so just be careful."
"It shouldn't be difficult, since there's a warning sign. Then let's head straight to the mission point."
At Lee Gyeong-bok's words, everyone nodded and moved their feet.
* * *
The four quickly dispatched the enemies that appeared.
-Look at the devil shake, lol
-Fire is fun as soon as the portal opens lol
-Ah haha, it's actually easier to predict?!
-???: Mine! Let's summon some mine!
-It really gets super powerful when you overclock it lol
-The scan is already finished, right?
The members, unlike at first, did not sympathize with the sinners, and it was because they had become more accustomed to fighting.
As soon as we arrived at the mission point, the hellaforming was completed like in area 1.
“Oh, it’s a base!”
“At first glance, it looks similar to Region 1.”
“I guess it’s a bit smaller in scale because it’s a mine.”
As the background changed, the members looked around and spoke. Genome clapped his hands to get their attention.
"Well, it's true that the scale has been reduced somewhat, but since this is a mine, there are additional facilities. Come this way for now!"
He continued his explanation, leading the members.
"You all remember the story, right? The reason we came here was to secure Hell Metal. So, as the missions progress in Area 2 and the number of Hell Forming areas increases, Hell Metal production increases!"
He soon stopped in front of a structure and raised his hand.
“The facility where that hell metal gathers is this ‘refinery’!”
“Is this a place where minerals are processed?”
“Oh? Can we write it ourselves?”
"Oh, here's the reserve amount. It's currently 10%? It's expressed as a percentage."
The members and viewers inspected the refinery and soon understood its functions.
“Ah, I can increase the basic stats of the suit here.”
“They’re plating the suit parts with hell metal.”
“They say you can also donate to the base.”
"That's right! If you donate to the base, the NPCs' specs will increase! Then, the NPCs' mission success rate will naturally increase, right?"
Players and NPCs could be strengthened based on their choices. Lee Kyung-bok smiled and looked back at the members.
“Let’s decide this autonomously, too?”
“Well, I understand. If you are a gentleman, you will make the right choice.”
“Then we’ll get things fixed and meet again?”
“Okay, let’s get started!”
As the members dispersed, Lee Kyung-bok immediately took action. He donated all of the Hell Metal he had stockpiled.
-Just post the old post lol
-I can't stand Agamem's behavior!
-5252, are you a donation angel?
-???: Me?
-What's the queue?
-What is summoning major shareholders? LOL
Lee Kyung-bok burst into laughter at the chat window's reaction.
"It'd be a lie to say there's no reason, but really, there's no reason for an assistant to raise their stats, right? I don't fight directly. It's more reasonable to increase the success rate of NPC missions."
-Oh lol that's right
-As expected from a perfect assistant, you're helping all of humanity?
-This guy's character stat is higher than his suit stat lol
-???: Is the suit still usable?
-King Ban-in is tight!
-But this member is better at increasing NPC efficiency lol
-Right, lol. The default for Purge Day is too strong.
After making that decision and waiting, the members came back one after another.
“Oh my, you all make decisions quickly.”
Finally, when Genome returned, the viewers flocked to him as if they had been waiting for him.
-Ah haha I see you're pretending to be worried
-If you're ugly, isn't it a self-upgrade?
-The ugly guy is from the back
-King Bro! Live alone and suck honey from the rear!
"No, Council members! Why do you want to know this again? Isn't this something each individual should decide and keep secret? Are you sure I'm right?"
Genome looked around at the members, keeping pace with him.
“Well, I guess we can’t keep it a secret, can we? You’re all watching anyway.”
"That's right. And really, isn't there only one choice? It's chivalrous to support the weak, and it's better to choose donation."
“Yeah, yeah, I did that too.”
But when Decibel and Eclipse immediately revealed their findings, Genome blinked. Soon, even Lee Kyung-bok nodded, and he let out a hollow laugh.
-Oh lol, did you donate everything?
-Did that punk swallow it all by himself? Lol
-The guy who came out right away lol
-Ugh, this guy is the eldest member of the crew?
The moment the viewers teased him, thinking it was an opportunity, Genome smiled with satisfaction.
"Oh! I have all the logs left! This is why prejudice is so scary. What did I choose? I chose to donate everything!"
“Wow, really?”
“Genome wonders?”
The members' eyes widened as Genome proudly revealed it.
"Ah! You guys shouldn't be like that! Why are you acting so disappointing again? Honestly, I don't know about the other members, but isn't this member guaranteed to succeed in player missions? If we're going to look far ahead and achieve Hell Metal Paradise, we need to increase the NPCs' mission success rate!"
-That's right lol
-Now that I think about it, it was Hell Metal that you were after?
-Self-interest is the best, not the cause, Imari ㅋㅋㅋ
-It ended up being ugly lol
-He drew a big picture in the end to go all-in on himself lol
-Choopic ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
When the viewers agreed and teased him again, Genome proudly puffed out his chest.
"No, what's wrong with that? Yeah? If I do well, our unit will do well, right? Then, humanity will do well, right? After all, it's for humanity, right?"
“Oh, I know this! The receiver will bring peace to the country!”
“But isn’t the order reversed now?”
“Oh, that’s right. The last one is Ji Dae-won, so it’s in reverse order.”
As everyone burst into laughter, Genome quickly waved his hand.
“Hey! Enough! Let’s go do the mission!”
* * *
The members looked at the map that appeared in the briefing room. Unlike Area 1, which had a canyon as its backdrop, Area 2's map was tilted downward, perhaps because it was a mine.
"Okay, we've already covered the concept of phases in Area 1, right? The first missions of this attack phase are these three."
“Exploring the mine, installing mining equipment, and blasting the tunnel.”
“There’s no devil mark this time?”
“Instead, it comes as ore. I think it’s the amount you can obtain by clearing missions.”
Not only the members but also the viewers looked at the map and shared their opinions.
-This time, the minerals are the measure of difficulty lol
-High risk, high return, right?
-Then let's blast the tunnel, okay?
-What the hell lol It's right to go to the mining facility lol
-This time the criteria are a bit vague?
-The minimum and maximum values are different, so the votes will probably be a bit divided?
-If you set it to the minimum, it's a mining device, and if you set it to the maximum, it's difficult to blast a tunnel…
The problem was that the mineral yield, the metric used for this purpose, wasn't a fixed quantity. It was listed from minimum to maximum, so the higher or lower values varied depending on where the standard was set.
"Now, members, please listen to our opinions and then make a decision. Of course, I know the details, so I'll keep quiet."
Genome appeared in the chaotic chatroom. The members looked at each other and opened their mouths.
“Uh, I think if it’s random, it’s right to look at it based on the minimum.”
"Hmm, that's a valid point. I think we should focus more on the substance than the numbers. The blasting will be noisier, so wouldn't it attract the enemy's attention?"
As soon as the two people expressed their opinions, public opinion in the chat room also shifted in one direction or another.
-If you think about the worst case scenario, isn't what Denunna said right?
-As expected from a student at Daehakwon!
-The minimum is stable bread lol
-What are you talking about lol It's better to listen to what Ekle says
-Really lol The hard part isn't the play reward.
-If you look closely, the noise level during installation may be higher.
-The blast from the night shift is bigger lol
-No lol what's funny now is that I'm not trying to find the easy way lol
-Ah haha, you don't know how to play it haha
The members and the chat room were split in half in opinion.
“I think…”
Naturally, everyone's attention turned to Lee Kyung-bok, the last person in line. And he had already made his decision.
“I think blasting is more appropriate.”
It was thanks to the fact that I had already finished the estimation with a new skill. Intuitively, the tunnel blasting mission seemed more fun.
It just took me some time to think of a reason to explain it.
"I think a wider range is better. If it's decided by luck, it'll be as fun as a lottery. But if it's decided by our own effort, we'll get more out of it, right?"
Decibel let out a short sigh at that explanation.
“Ah…! I see. It’s more fun when there are more variables.”
“Sir Decibel has changed his mind.”
"Okay! We're unanimous! Members, please begin voting!"
Genome simply snapped his fingers and posted a vote. Viewers immediately joined in and left comments.
-It's good to understand variables by range lol
-Minimum and maximum are not the problem, Imari lol
-Right lol It's more fun when there are various situations lol
-Are you crazy about fun?
-But if it's a purple coin, it seems like it will hit the max lol
-This guy always looks up, not down!
-Let's go to Ssakparadas with Max!
-Big people play in big waters!
The divided opinions of viewers were quickly united.
