Episode 510 – Purge Day on Hell (3)
The members headed toward Pandemonium. Along the way, other scavengers offered themselves as guides, but the results were the same.
-Oh lol why are you guys so clingy?
-Isn't it because it's a rodent that it's being installed?^^
-Hahahahahaha!
-But if you look at it this persistently, isn't there something there?
-Are you trying to make me use coins somehow?
-Why did King Chi end up donating coins?
While the viewers laughed at him, the members slowly stopped walking.
“Wow, what is this…?”
"Hmm, it looks like some kind of barrier. It's similar to the pattern on the coin."
"That looks like the entrance. They're standing guard. I guess they can't get in anywhere else."
A crimson pattern rippled along the outskirts of Pandemonium. In the center of it stood a spot where two scavengers stood.
“Oh, no!”
As the members were scanning their surroundings, they heard a scream. Turning around, they saw a sinner rolling on the floor, trapped within a torn barrier.
“Please, please! I need the coins right now…!”
He crawled on the floor, pleading with the scavenger, but the creature didn't even glance at him, only nodding to the guards. The guards nodded back, their voices low and snickering.
“Wait, wait a minute!”
The prisoner ran frantically, but the barrier closed again. The guards taunted him with sneers.
"You can't stay in Pandemonium without coins. Simple, right?"
“You’d better stop brooding and hurry before you freeze to death.”
"Oh, you never know? If you come back quickly, maybe they'll give you a discount on the admission fee?"
"Oh, wouldn't that be better for us than handing it over to the patrolling guys? Even if you're a little short on coins, if you feel like you're going to die, come here first."
The sinner shivered. It was unclear whether it was from the cold or the rage at the ridicule. He didn't respond, but walked with difficulty, disappearing into the blizzard.
-Look at those rats spinning around lol
-Oh… I guess I’ll get kicked out when I run out of coins.
-What kind of accommodation is this? LOL
-Should we cut the guards first and then go in?
-Can I kill them? How do they get through the barrier?
-Could it be a barrier that only demons can pass through?
Viewers as well as members began discussing the entry method.
"Oh, I guess I'll have to use coins to get in. And since we're right in front of enemy lines, I guess it's better to go in without fighting, right?"
"If there aren't any others, wouldn't it be better to open the door and deal with them? Even if an alarm sounds, we have an invitation, so I don't think we'll be discovered."
"In situations like this, I'll just follow the trend. If I were to express my opinion, it would be a spoiler."
At the members' words, Lee Kyung-bok rolled his eyes for a moment and opened his mouth.
“Can’t we skip the entrance fee?”
“Yes? Really?”
“Are you trying to find a hole in the barrier?”
The others' eyes widened. Perhaps they were trying to find another entrance.
“No. I think we can get in if we leave one guard behind.”
“It’s not like we’re both saving lives or killing each other?”
“Keep the sentry alive…?”
"Ah! Our captain has brain hacking!"
Genome lightly snapped his fingers, understanding his intentions.
-Oh? Control the demon and open the barrier?
-Oh lol Those little rats can open the barrier lol
-But then wouldn't only the devils enter?
-Really? It only splits into devil shapes?
-Can't we just stick together?
-What kind of train game is this? LOL
Viewers laughed at him, but also reacted skeptically.
Even if Lee Kyung-bok manipulated the devil to open a barrier, it would be difficult for the members to follow him in terms of time and space.
The members who saw the chat reaction became serious, but Lee Kyung-bok just laughed.
“No, we don’t play with trains. Just go in.”
He was confident.
“We showed you once.”
This wasn't the first time I was using the method I was using.
* * *
Eclipse returned, burying the body of the sentry he had dealt with in the snow.
“It will probably be difficult to find.”
“Thank you for your hard work!”
“Ah, the captain is here!”
Everyone turned their heads at Genome's words.
“I waited for a moment, and it was quiet. I think it’s okay to come in.”
Of course, Lee Kyung-bok was right there beside him. It was the sentry he controlled who returned through the barrier.
“Then let’s deal with it now…”

“Oh, I’ll send you far away so you don’t have to move again.”
Lee Gyeong-bok ordered the sentry to run a considerable distance from the entrance. Decibel took aim at him and shot him the moment he stopped.
“Oh, well done. Shall we go in now?”
“Okay! Let’s start!”
Lee Kyung-bok lightly shook his hand and retrieved the Mekapermusae.
-If you pretend to be a student at a private academy, they'll understand lol
-Is this the Chuck Chuck Master…!
-I'm currently pursuing a PhD, so I guess it's a master's degree? LOL
-Free admission ready!
-Wow lol can it be done this way too?
Amidst the viewers' anticipation, Decibel pulled out her phase device. But she held only one device in her hand.
“Oh…! Okay!”
“Wow, this is really connecting!”
“It’s truly a purple wonder!”
“It seems safe. Let’s go in.”
Another device was installed inside the barrier by Lee Kyung-bok, who controlled the demon. When the members safely entered through the overclocked portal, viewers burst into laughter.
-WA! Free admission!
-Boundary shack lol Can't you do anything?
-This is the first time I've seen Hellbung play like this lol
-It's possible because there's the world's first brain hacker, Imariya.
-It's not the first time! It's not the first time!
-Ah haha it's completely different from what was shown in region 3!
-Black Company Special) Serious about cost reduction
-Another verification here!?
-Ah haha I don't want to pay haha
The members who entered the pandemonium swallowed their breaths.
“Wow, what is this!? It’s so big? No, the tower looked big from the outside, but I didn’t know it was so big inside.”
“Hmm… It looks like a ruined city.”
“Oh, right. It looks like a ruin.”
The jagged, thorny buildings caught my eye. Most of them were rusted and showed signs of collapse.
"What's that? A pillar? The thing around it looks like a vending machine?"
“No, I don’t think it’s a pillar. It’s moving.”
“It looks like some kind of large elevator. I think it’s used to go to the upper floors.”
"That's right! If you look at the directions, that's the mission point, right? Our destination is right there."
The only thing that looked normal was the cylindrical elevator in the center and the vending machines placed around it.
-What is a vending machine?
-Is this what Mammon Coin is used for?
-You can check it out if you go and see for yourself lol
-It doesn't seem like they've been caught, so they're just going to end the hell-forming?
The members started towards the center.
As we approached the outskirts of the city from the entrance, numerous markers began to appear on the minimap.
“Wow, is this really a city? There are quite a few people here.”
“You’d better be on your guard just in case.”
“Yes. The scavenger is coming this way.”
The members were on guard, but nothing happened that they were worried about.
“Oh, are you guests?”
“Please use the central elevator to go upstairs.”
The scavengers weren't as hostile to the members as they were outside, and the sinners didn't pay them any attention at all.
“Just a little bit more, just a little bit more…”
“Ahh…! Not yet? Not yet…!?”
Several prisoners sat on a device, connected to a tube, drawing blood. Beside them, like a gas station, a number indicating the amount of blood drawn and a coin were spinning.
“Wow, crazy… Are you selling your own blood right now?”
“Hmm… It seems like there’s a way to obtain coins internally.”
“I think there is another way.”
The members, who had been sulking, were puzzled by Lee Kyung-bok's words. Then, a beat later, a low whisper was heard.
“Oh my, what a surprise…! A vending machine?”
“Huh, what a strange thing…!”
Sinners with sunken, sunken eyes were mumbling something in front of the vending machine. Following their voices, something like letters engraved on the machine's display began to appear.
-Is it some kind of order? If I ignore the order, I get a coin?
-Wow;;; This is really weird
– Judging by their appearance, they seem to be sinners who have already sold their blood?
-What is it;;; Why am I so scared!?
-Really ㅋㅋ This is more horror-like than monsters ㅋㅋㅋ
The members swallowed dryly as they moved forward in the strange atmosphere. But before they could even take a few steps, something unexpected happened.
'what?'
The first to feel it was Lee Kyung-bok, who had a keen sense of smell. A dull vibration erupted from the center, carried through the air, and a beat later, a tremble was felt along the floor.
“Huh… an earthquake?”
“Did you feel it too?”
The moment the other members sensed him, beeping sounds rang out from the surrounding machines simultaneously.
<Price fluctuations. Price fluctuations.>
Then came the mechanical sound.
“Oh, ohhh! Ohhhhh!”
“Heeheehee! Heeheeheehee! Heehee!”
“Kkaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
“What? No! This can’t be happening!”
The sinners began to howl like animals. Some burst into laughter, others screamed.
-?????????
-Mammon coin price increase?
-Wow;; I guess I need to draw more blood.
-Vending machine orders are also taking longer lol
-Those who had this coin are in trouble lol
-What the heck lol was this really a coin market?
-Wow lol the price went up so coin mining got harder lol
-Ah, lol I was surprised by the voice acting.
“Yes, in fact, Pandemonium was said to be inspired by the cryptocurrency market.”
Everyone nodded at Genome's words. The beeping sound rang again.
But this time, the sound came from the center, not from each device.
<Warning. Warning.>
Large red letters appeared on the surface of the central elevator, large enough to be seen from anywhere in the city.
<Mammon Coins acquired through unauthorized means have been detected.>
<Transfer of Mammon Coins is only possible when the owner dies.>
The members looked at each other as if they realized what was said next.
“Wait, that’s us!? Isn’t that our coin Lucifer!?”
“Perhaps the wave just now was some kind of scan.”
“It seems like this wasn’t a mission that could be easily completed.”
The viewers also noticed the situation. The chat window began to shake rapidly.
-Huh? Lucifer set a trap?
-Lucifer kicks a punk here?
-I told you that opening your mouth is a sign of shame!
-Or is it because you came in for free?
-Oh? Is it okay if I pay the entrance fee?
-Hey, lol if you spent all that on admission, you would have been kicked out of Purge Day too
-Oh, right lol I think it got caught because there was still money left after paying the entrance fee
-So it was a part that took a while?
-Then it's true that I saved coins lol
-The price has gone up so it seems like it would be a huge profit lol
Meanwhile, a coin pattern with a map appeared in the sky above the city.
<Coins acquired through unauthorized means are not recognized as ownership.>
The members had a gut feeling when they saw the location and the phrase that appeared.
“Uh… is that our location?”
“Your Majesty, we must prepare for battle.”
“That’s right. We collected more coins when we came back, right?”
All the sinners who had previously ignored them were now looking at them. They all looked as if they might collapse at any moment, but their gazes were fierce.
“Ahem, so it’s basically like there’s a wanted poster for us.”
Lee Kyung-bok's lips curled up at the rapidly growing hostility. True to his word, the criminals immediately took action.
“That’s mine!”
“Upper floor, you can go upstairs!”
“If you’re not going to buy it, get out!”
The prisoners inserted coins into the vending machine and pressed a button. The small ampoules that followed were gulped down without hesitation.
Then, the gray dots on the minimap suddenly began to turn red.
-Look at your arms swelling up lol
-Are there guys whose legs change?
-What about the mutation that causes partial but not full mutation?
-Is it something like Leviathan's strengthening agent?
-The great devil of the magpie is here again?
-What the heck ㅋㅋ You're completely obsessed with coins, dammit
Then, with a loud bang, the mutating sinner's head exploded. Then, plasma blades began to cut through their bodies.
“7 o’clock, 3rd floor scavenger!”
“Okay, cut!”
It was thanks to the members that they weren't just watching.
“From now on, the whole city is the enemy.”
Lee Kyung-bok smiled as he watched the sinners rushing in and the scavengers arriving.
“Follow me.”
I didn't think it would be boring.
* * *
Meanwhile, the broadcast of Chunhachudong.
“Huh?! You used a portal there?”
"No, no, I think you usually pay an entrance fee! The Purge Day members are so bold!"
“Purge Day, not ordinary.”
“Right? You think so too, Huyu?”
The members who started the broadcast together expressed their admiration for Fuzzy Day's entry method.
“Hey, didn’t you say there was a limit to the number of times you could do brain hacking?”
“Yeah, three times.”
"Ugh, Purple-san! You wasted that precious opportunity on cost-cutting!? Seriously, even Houyu answered so calmly!"
"Natsu, Purple-san doesn't mind that kind of opportunity! He's that confident in his abilities!"
At his younger siblings' reactions, Haru smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly.
-Ah, is this the mindset of the world's first brain hacker?
-What should I say, if Harununi was a brain hacker, she would have tried to save this somehowwwww
-Aren't the other Purge Day members quick to accept it?
-Hey, hey, can't you tell just by looking at him? Purple is so trusted by the members!
The viewers were also laughing and enjoying the show. When a series of events suddenly changed the mood, everyone was shocked.
“Huh? What is this all of a sudden!?”
"Huh? A fight between the players and the entire city? Seriously…! The developers are so evil!"
“Well, it’s hell.”
"Ah! But still, still! Purge Day responded so quickly! Mr. Purple, 'From now on, the entire city is the enemy' Aaaah! Your voice is so cool!"
The members expressed their admiration for Purgatory Day's performance as he quickly entered the battle.
"Hey, Eclipse is still amazing! No, no, it seems even more nimble than before."
Aki's eyes lit up as he looked at Eclipse.
"When we faced each other in competitions before, you gave off the impression of a noble wolf. Now, the synergy and tension are incredibly high, aren't you?"
He couldn't help but look more at those in the same profession as himself. For the same reason, Huyu was keeping a close eye on Decibel.
"Mr. Decibel. I thought you'd be so tense and unable to focus, but you're so quick to change. You're a different person. You're adept at focusing and switching things up in an instant."
“Hey, it’s surprising that Huyu is praising you?”
Natsu smiled at Huyu and continued speaking.
"Mr. Genome? Right? I always felt like a coward because he was always in the rear! No, no, there's no law that says Artillery has to stay in the rear, right?"
“That’s right, Natsu likes flamethrowers.”
"Ah, right! That side is on fire in so many ways?! Mr. Genom seems to be quick-witted! The timing of his special bullet replacements is exquisite! Hmm, if it were me, I'd be really confused…"
“No, Natsu is impossible.”
"Huh? Huh, that should be comforting! I'm not that stupid!"
“I never called you an idiot.”
Haru opened his mouth to stop his bickering younger siblings.
"Come on, let's all focus on Purple's play! What do you think? I don't need words, right? You'll know for sure when you see it! Do you understand why I insist on being an engineer?"
The other members laughed and agreed with Haru's rave reviews.
"I wondered why you were like that, but now I understand a little. Purple, I can really feel why you became famous."
“Control, vision, and multitasking are all top-notch.”
"Hey, hey, isn't this a bit unfair? Blocking the beam is fine, that's one thing! But adjusting the angle of the reflection is weird, isn't it!? No, no, the other members are overclocking right now?"
-I burst out laughing because Aki hyung's feelings were exactly the same as mine.
-Huh? Is this the first time Huyu has given such a good review?
-This is truly god-level skill…!
-Well, I thought the name "Perfect Play" was arrogant. But maybe I wasn't the one being arrogant?
-Hey, hey, Natsu! I forgot one! Purple, you even pinged the minimap to plan out the route!
-Really? I had a feeling we couldn't surround them, but they even figured out an escape route!
Viewers agreed with the members' sentiments. Their attitudes toward Purge Day also changed.
-Actually, I was jealous because Haru Noona liked it, but she was so good that I fell for her toowww
-Etto, awe, perhaps? Mr. Purple is beyond human standards?
-Ah, this isn't the level of a Korean! Even for a Korean who's good at games, this is completely different!
-I realized why Haru wants to be an engineer. Damn, a perfect engineer is so cool!
-That's right, that feeling of perfection! I know only Purple can do it, but I want to try!
-It feels perfect… I wish I could experience it even once…!
The feeling I had after watching Lee Kyung-bok play was universal. One day, I saw that chat and clapped like a seal.
"Oh, that's right! Everyone! In Korea, they say 'Ganjinanda' means cool! I get the feeling? That's what it means, right?"
-Huh? Really? You call that cool?
-Ah, you can't feel this if it's not Purple C?
-Hey, that's perfect coolness.
-Hey hey, anyone can feel this www
This was a word that applied to Lee Kyung-bok, both in its original Japanese meaning and in Korean slang.
