71.
New raid dungeon, Trinity.
Trinity Dungeon, which consists of a total of five underground floors, was divided into a middle boss area and a final boss area.
The mid-boss needed a magic dealer, and the final boss needed a melee dealer and a tank to attract aggro, so it was necessary to mix the jobs appropriately. Still, the lowest difficulty level, Normal, wasn’t that tough, so it was worth beating with the team that Drink some water shared.
[Guild] Drink some water: Still, at this level, it’s at the level of personal satisfaction.
[Guild] Drink some water: Lorem dungeon was of otherworldly difficulty ㅋㅋ
[Guild] I’m sleepy: Lorem…
[Guild] I’m sleepy: It came out last year, right?
[Guild] Harn: yeah
[Guild] Harn: Abyss raiding took 48 to 49 hours ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Guild] TheHunter: Very difficult
[Guild] TheHunter: crazy enough was that the number of people allowed in is limited to 8 people.
[Guild] TheHunter: much tougher too
[Guild] Seasoned crab sauce: That’s the level of difficulty there.
[Guild] Seasoned crab sauce: trying to start with just 8 of us breaking that level ㅋㅋㅋ
[Guild] This is Dorahee: I saw it in the video.
[Guild] This is Dorahee: The graphics are amazing and the gimmick is flashy and complex.
[Guild] Drink some water: If I’m sleepy and Rahee are planning to go there, try reinforcing your equipment more and challenge it yourself.
[Guild] Drink some water: But honestly, I haven’t been there even once since I got pucked ㅋㅋㅋ;
[Guild] Mocha Bread: Lorem is really…
[Guild] Mocha Bread: It’s a place, where only those who want to go, go
[Guild] Monster Born from Capitalism: This is from last year, and the difficulty of Lorem was so bad that it got criticized.
[Guild] Monster born from Capitalism: They say this denture was made rather easily
[Guild] Manaolingnam: I’ll have to go to find out
[Guild] Manaolingnam: I think it will be somewhat easier than Lorem, yeah
Due to the nature of raids that require group play, the difficulty inevitably increases as the number of players is small and the number of instant death gimmicks increases.
In the case of the newly released Trinity, I don’t know the gimmick yet, but the maximum number of people is 6 in the Normal and 12 in the Abyss, so I can see that it is not a bad difficulty level to defeat.
[Guild] Crazy Hunting Friend: I have enough dentures.
[Guild] Crazy Hunting Friend: I might die a little bit until I memorize the gimmick
[Guild] Crazy Hunting Friend: It’s worth doing because once you know everything, you can beat the deal
[Guild] Drink some water: true
[Guild] Drink some water: I need to memorize the gimmick before the abyss rises next week
Raids all have different gimmicks for each difficulty level.
In all raids, gimmicks are changed and added slightly depending on the difficulty level. Still, you can adapt much faster if you memorize even a low-level gimmick than if you go into the abyss without knowing anything at all.
10 minutes before the dungeon opened, Yoo Chae logged into the game as previously mentioned.
[Guild] Drink some water: Aren’t you going quickly?__
[Guild] Mocha Bread: I thought you weren’t coming;;
[Guild] Harn: Create a party with Drink some water, let’s go
[Yoo Chae: Hyung]
Yoo Chae, who completely ignored the guild chat, ran to my side as I stood in front of the dungeon entrance and sent a separate message.
[Yoo Chae: Are you going to play tomorrow too?]
[I’m sleepy: yeah]
[I’m sleepy: I have to memorize the gimmick so I guess I’ll keep doing it]
[I’m sleepy: Why you asked]
[Yoo Chae: Mmm]
[Yoo Chae: I think I’ll be a little late tomorrow.]
[Yoo Chae: Something happened;;]
Something happened?
There have been several instances in the past when Yoo Chae said that access was delayed or difficult due to work, but this time the meaning was different.
Is this something related to Hero Professionalism? If Chae Yoo-jeong and Yoo Chae were the same person, there was a certain possibility that that would be the case.
Even though he said he was taking a break from competing, Chae Yoo-jeong was still part of the team anyway, so there would be things he needed to do. It’s time for the team to gather together and have a meeting...……………
I asked the question as naturally as possible.
[I’m sleepy: Will you be coming really late?]
[Yoo Chae: A little?]
[Yoo Chae: I think it should be past 7 o’clock]
[I’m sleepy: What are you doing that you can’t come until 7 o’clock?]
[Yoo Chae: I sorta live alone]
[Yoo Chae: My family called me]
[Yoo Chae: But it’s a bit far away, so it takes time to get there ㅜㅡㅜ]
“.......what.”
I didn’t expect that he would bring up the topic of his family in this situation.
I thought he would just come up with another excuse and get away with it, but I was rather flustered when I got an understandable answer.
[I’m sleepy: oh;;]
[I’m sleepy: I can’t help it if my family called me too]
[Yoo Chae: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[Yoo Chae: I’ll tell you separately, so don’t worry]
[Yoo Chae: Still, I will try my best to come back quickly><]
[I’m sleepy: Don’t overdo it]
Is this real...? Or is he lying so that I don’t suspect anything?
If I had been certain that Chae Yoo-jeong and Yoo-chae were the same person, it would have been easier to find physical evidence, but since this was not the case, I felt uneasy about it.
When I was with Chae Yoo-jeong, I was suspicious of Chae Yoo-jeong, and when I played games with Yoo Chae, I was suspicious of Yoo Chae, so I started to get tired little by little. I have never been so suspicious of people in my life, so I’m not used to it.
[Party] Drink some water: 1 minute left
[Party] Drink some water: Anyone who hasn’t come to the discord yet, please come in quickly.
[Party] Drink some water: Get ready to go
[Party] I’m sleepy: Yes
For now, let’s deal with the raid first.
It won’t take long because it’s normal, but the goal is not simply to clear it, but to memorize the pattern, so you’ll have to keep repeating it until tomorrow.
***
[Drink some water: Abyss stage, as announced in advance, on 2 PM this Saturday]
[Drink some water: 2 PM]
[Mocha Bread: Phew, I guess I won’t wake up early this time]
[Staric: 3 days left]
[Harn: There is no change in the number of people, right?]
[Harn: Is it true that Gilma-nim is also joining in?]
[Drink some water: yeah]
[Drink some water: I will do it this time]
[The Hunter: But total deal calculation]
[The Hunter: Someone will have to take charge of it]
[The Hunter: Anyone possible?]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: I can do itㅎ]
[Harn: ?]
[Mocha Bread: ??]
[I’m getting lazy: Are you saying you can?]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: The reaction is too muchㅜ]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: I’m really fast in calculation]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: Let me pose a problem]
[Harn: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[Harn: What is 478 multiplied by 212?]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: 81534]
[Mocha bread: ??????]
[Harn: It’s completely different]
[Park Seungkon-ssi: But it was fast]
[The Hunter: Fuck ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[Bright Clouds: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]
[Manaolingnam: You must be crazy fkㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋ]
[Staric: I will do it..]
[Drink some water: okay...]
At night, after 9 p.m., I stayed at school and was working on assignments with my classmates. To take a breather, I drank coffee and checked my phone.
“Sunbae-nim. Are you going to stay longer?”
“We’re going to be leaving now.”
My juniors who were working on an assignment together asked me questions as they cleared their seats. I looked up from my phone and smiled at them.
“I still have a long way left. It’s late, so be careful.”
“Okay, then we’ll go ahead first.”
A junior who made eye contact with me smiled and greeted me.
As the juniors left, Kim Dae-seok, who was holding his head and groaning, came towards me, dragging his chair.
“You’re smiling from ear to ear.”
“Why are you trying to cause a fight again all of a sudden?”
“Tell me honestly. Is there another reason why you turned down the woman Eun Hae-seong offered to introduce you?”
How long do I have to worry about the introductions I received during vacation? I looked at Kim Dae-seok pitifully, and when I turned my head away without saying anything, he grabbed my arm.
“Right? Things are going well with you and Solji, right?”
“Who is Solji again?….”
“The first year junior who just made eye contact while saying hello! Don’t you even know your junior’s name?”
“What is it that a first-year student lacks that makes her like a returning student? Why are you so interested in your junior?”
“Seniors should take care of juniors, otherwise who will take care of them?”
“That’s called a Kkondae (1).”
When I slapped Kim Dae-seok’s hand away, my phone vibrated at the right time. The person on the phone was Seo Tae-young.
“Who are you calling old?! How old am I to be called an old man?”
I left Kim Dae-seok, who was upset as if he were stabbed, and came out in the hallway and answered the phone.
-Hello?
“Hyung, how are you? Did you get there safely? “
-I got there safely. Is it okay to call now?
“I guess it’s okay? why?”
Seo Tae-young, whom he had just met at the wedding, had been contacted separately.
As expected, Seo Tae-young coughed in vain and opened a speech with a sensation.
-It’s not that great. Ji-han, at that wedding… cough, you met Chae Yoo-jeong, right?
“We met. But nothing happened.”
-I know that. Chae Yoo-jeong always brags about exchanging numbers with you.
“......”
How should I answer this?
-I’m glad that you two have become friends because I’ve always liked it whenever you’re mentioned, but... I’m worried because he seems so excited these days.
“Worried? What are you worried about?”
-I guess Chae Yoo-jeong had an interview scheduled recently. That interview then surfaced this time, hmm………….
Seo Tae-young, who took a moment to think about what to say, continued.
-I think your story came up there.
“What?”
-Of course he didn’t reveal your name or username, but should I say that it reminds me of you? This is difficult to explain. I’ll send you a link so you can check it out yourself.
I had a slight headache in my head. therefore… Chae Yoo-jeong was interviewed, and he was talking about me?
‘What on earth are you doing?’
Anyway, there wasn’t a day that went by without an accident. A deep sigh came out.
“If you send me the link, I will check it and talk to Chae Yoo-jeong.”
-Okay. Resolve it between the parties. Don’t be too stressed. Actually, it doesn’t have much content, but I thought you should know it, so I told it to you.
Well, if Seo Tae-young hadn’t told me this, I wouldn’t have known. Because I don’t go to game sites and I don’t know what Chae Yoo-jeong does.
“I understand. Thank you for telling me.”
-Ugh, I’ll stop the call now.
As soon as I finished the call, Seo Tae-young sent me a message. The moment I clicked on the link, a window for a Jang game website opened, with a Chae Yoo-jeong interview banner hanging on the main page.
[<Interview> LVS team player ‘Gamgack’ about to return after a one-year hiatus]
When I clicked on the banner, the interview page appeared. A photo of Chae Yoo-jeong being interviewed while wearing the LVS team uniform appeared at the top.
As I scrolled down and read the interview, I burst out laughing after seeing it near the end.
Chae Yoo-jeong, you damn bastard.
