Shincon’s One Coin Clear

Episode 152. Shax’s Floor (3)

[9-3 Great Age of Pirates: Find the door and enter.]

Stage on the 27th floor Great Age of Pirates was one of the dimensions Shax conquered.

A case like the Endress Express, which was Salomon’s home dimension and stage.

However, there was no land in the Great Pirate Age stage.

This is because the Shax ‘plundered’ the land of the continent.

“You’ve done an outrageous thing by plundering the land.”

– Could something like that happen on Earth?

“Maybe.”

Although there is no land, the nature of the animal called human has not changed.

human attributes.

being a social animal.

Humans had a habit of trying to connect and unite with each other even in the absence of land.

The medium was a ship.

Humans began to live in the landless world of the sea, calling gigantic ships the territory of the country.

Of course, there are very few common wooden ships.

He created a boat by adding magical processing to materials found in the sea.

In the days when the land existed, the materials cut down from the land trees were treasures that could not be compared with anything in the Great Pirate Age stage.

A huge ship is coming soon.

And the player randomly lands on one of the ships.

This is the same aspect as Endress Express.

Players become shoplifters who have invaded the country.

In the Great Pirate Age stage, humans without a pass passed as slaves.

Of course, if caught, the harsh situation could not be avoided.

Even though Taeyang was a petty thief, he proudly took the lead and looked around.

With that confident attitude, the natives of the stage walking around did not doubt the sun.

I could see the horizon and see a large group of ships filling up about half of the horizon.

“… … You mean there’s a door on one of these ships? You can find it and go in.”

He said that the stage of the Sharks is represented by the two words ‘plunder’.

It was the same with this stage.

At first glance, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with looting.

However, in fact, it is a structure that has no choice but to plunder naturally in order to survive.

People who live on solid ground have compassion, but people who live on constantly shaking water are bound to be different.

Of course, it is not such a simple classification as hard or shaken.

On land, either through farming or through hunting. Or you can live by collecting.

But the sea is different.

Except for limited farming in the few sea currents that meet the conditions, the rest have no choice but to supply food through hunting or gathering.

Humanity began to grow through the agricultural revolution.

The Cognitive Revolution and the Agricultural Revolution gave humanity the concept of ‘surplus wealth’, which made it possible for strangers to share food they could eat tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

However, surplus property was a dream word for humans without land.

Of course, the kindness that sprouted in the hearts of humans when there was land quickly faded.

“I fight for food, fight with the kids who hear it and run to it, and fight with the guys who want to take revenge on their colleagues. really. You made the stage horrible.”

The sun shook its head and laughed fiercely.

***

A well-made stage also satisfies the devil’s desire to show off as a work of art.

The Great Pirate Age stage was like that.

The Sharks’ Great Pirate Era stage was famous for being as large-scale as Chimeries’ signature stage, the Endress Express.

When the Great Pirate Age stage was first introduced, many demon kings showed favorable reviews.

At the time, as the front-line players eventually beat it up, interest in it cooled, but the evaluation that it was a well-made stage still remained unchanged.

‘I haven’t changed… … .’

The Sharks looked down the stage.

What is the definition of a well-made stage?

It is a stage that is fun to watch and brings out the player’s ability to the limit, and the process is always punctuated by fierce battles.

In fact, it is not easy to fill all three courses.

If you pursue the fun of watching, there is a limit to drawing out the player’s ability.

Even if you design a stage that brings out the player’s abilities to the end, it is difficult to make the process punctuated by fierce battles.

For example, the soul training ground stage brings out the player’s abilities to the limit, but the intense battles are intermittent and boring to watch.

And now.

The stage, which was the pride of the Sharks, looks good only after taking off the business card of a well-made stage.

why?

Because the sun was chopping up the Sharks’ stage like a steak and chewing it up.

In other words, it meant that the players were being attacked helplessly without being able to bring out their abilities to the end.

Actually, it’s a shame for the Sharks.

Yoon Taeyang came up with an overwhelming specification and broke everything, but how did the demon king block the sun with the difficulty level set for the 20th floor stage without the devil directly stepping out?

Sharks, who watched the stage while smelling the smell of the sea in the air, swallowed a bitter smile.

‘Of course, the other demon lords won’t take care of his circumstances.’

The stage of the Great Pirate Age, which I thought would take a long time because it was on a huge scale, progressed quickly.

The process was flexible like water and elastic like a spring, to the point where Barbatos could not hold back his admiration.

“I know how to use strong force, not just force.”

It is not a battle judgment at the level of instinctively securing a retreat route, familiarizing yourself with terrain features, and using them.

It is a tactical judgment that sees the battle situation itself from a wide perspective.

“I thought they were just blindly hunting, but they seem to know how to coordinate the forest ecosystem.”

The group that should be caught and broken is definitely broken, and the moderately weak guys only press down on the children.

When faced with the head of a huge group, it enters into battle without hesitation and smashes it with overwhelming force, reducing useless battles.

The group of suns, which began to gather in just 12 hours, grew into a huge cartel in less than a night.

“Hoo.”

Taeyang made the series of actions very easy, but Barbatos knew it was not an easy task.

Distinguishing between what needs to be broken and what needs to be embraced with generosity.

The task of making moderately weak forces obey with overwhelming charisma.

To completely control a large group with only small battles.

Words seem easy.

But that is an illusion.

“When you do something very well, it seems easy.”

The sun was like that now.

‘No.’

Barbatos’ repeated praises only angered the Sharks.

‘To think I have to suck my fingers while watching a guy like that.’

Shax looked impatiently at Barbatos.

Of course, Barbatos seemed unwilling to leave.

‘Did you hit it hard?’

Of course, it only happened in the Sharks’ head.

Most demon lords treat each other as equals, but even so, the difference in rank cannot be completely ignored.

Barbatos was an 8th rank demon king.

Now, he looks like a ‘fashion hunter’ wearing a suit with a serious look, but at the time, there were few demon kings who didn’t know what Barbatos was doing in the battle for the rank.

In addition, the Sharks and Barbatos did not have a good match.

I am a stork.

Barbatos is a hunter.

There was a very high possibility that bad results would come out if he dared to attack.

Sharks selected the ‘Moon’ of this stage as the most powerful and exclusive ship in the stage.

The ‘door’ was arbitrarily determined by the Sharks according to the number of stages.

Of course, the difficulty level is selected according to the level of the players, but this time, thanks to an irregular named Yoon Tae-yang, I selected the most difficult difficulty.

“But it’s not enough.”

The Taeyang party, which quickly gathered numerous ships, quickly gathered information.

It goes without saying of Ran’s ability to gather information using wind magic, but it was Salomon and Messiah that stood out on this stage.

This is because the sea fog became Salomon’s hands and feet and moved to block the sun, freeing the Messiah’s movements.

Even though it was raining, it was difficult to move, but it was a very suitable environment for Taeyang and his party to gather information.

Enough to figure out the final destination in just two days.

Taeyang, who grasped the location of the door, did not rush immediately, but chose another option.

It isolated the Adolph Mothership while quickly capturing and destroying satellite ships around the target ship, the Adolph Mothership.

Taeyang’s party circled around the Adolph mothership and cut off all the fishing boats of the Adolph mothership as well as the fishing nets.

Of course, the Adolph Mothership had stockpiled food that could last for quite a long time.

but.

“Seafarers are bound to be sensitive to these issues.”

The sun grinned.

Since ancient times, the people who have been most sensitive to issues such as food have been sailors.

In fact, what Taeyang did had to be sensitively accepted by any person, not just a sailor.

On land, wild boars are released daily on farms, chasing people who come to work in the fields, and threatening those who go hunting with weapons.

threat to livelihood.

What Taeyang did was, in effect, cut off all production activities that could be done on the Adolf mothership.

Barbatos nodded.

“It’s the move of a good hunter.”

When the timely provocation was added to this, the humans of Adolf Mothership eventually chose war.

But it was no different from a rabbit coming out of a rabbit hole choking on smoke.

why?

It was because the gap between them and Taeyang’s party was as wide as the rabbit and the hunter.

On the Endress Express stage, Taeyang, who burst into admiration for the strength of Corps Commander Koh Young, overpowered Adolf, the best warrior on the Great Pirate Age stage, in just three moves.

Taeyang and the others cleared the stage.

Of course, other players who were scattered throughout the Great Pirate Age stage cleared the stage thanks to the sun.

“The stage loses its meaning because of one player.”

Shax repeated admiration in admiration, gulp gulp, and squirmed as he writhed.

And Barbatos, who hardened his expression even more.

‘I’ll definitely need some checks.’

***

Naturally, the official grade I received after clearing the Sharks floor was S.

It was to the point where Taeyang himself wondered if there had ever been a floor that was so overwhelmingly cleared.

– The Great Pirate Age stage was definitely good.

Hyunhye muttered in an excited voice.

it was good.

Because there are over 20 achievements obtained only in the Great Pirate Age stage.

However, the part that Hyeon-hye was good was not a story in terms of results.

In this layer, there was a big step forward in that Hyeon-hye’s strategy and Tae-yang’s ability to perform were a perfect fit.

“At this rate, it must be much sooner than we thought.”

-that’s right. The 36th floor will come soon.

36th floor.

It was most likely that Byullim was tied to the stage near the 36th floor for some reason.

“Now then, let’s move on to the next stage.”

– Calm down a little. You don’t know it, other players will need a break.

Salomon and Ran Messiah were of course stronger than players of the same class, but not as strong as the sun.

I have no choice but to get tired of following the tempo of the sun.

Of course, being able to serve one serving while following the tempo of the sun was great in itself.

Just looking at Taeyang’s specs now, he was at a level where he wouldn’t kneel compared to KK at the time of the 50th floor.

Clan Yuri Maximov was still a Class A clan.

It was because the guild deliberation hadn’t finished yet.

The guild deliberation was postponed for five days after the clan war, and the results were announced, but Taeyang and his party broke through three floors in just four days.

This was an incident that caused quite a controversy even in the integrated shelter.

Some argued that there was a connection between the sun and the devil.

“That’s not very wrong.”

However, the claim didn’t make much of a difference.

Right now, it is the yard where some of the clan chief executives of the A-class clan signed a contract with the demon king from the empty space of the gate of the S-class clan Changchun.

If you didn’t want to climb the dimensional labyrinth, you could talk softly, but if you were going to climb, of course you had to be quiet.

There was one more surprising fact about the integrated shelter.

“Pacca joined Agrippa?”

“yes. I thought what was going on because I left the clan the other day, but I never thought I would have joined an S-ranked clan. I was also surprised.”

It was a sad message delivered by Yoon Taek, an officer of the flame.

“Wasn’t it almost to the point of hating people just by looking at what he was saying? Well done.”

“I don’t even know what happened. I tried to find out, but it was not easy.”

“are you okay. What do you think? It won’t be a hindrance when we go up right now.”

It was when Yoon-taek left the inn and Tae-yang was left alone.

“Hello, player Taeyang Yoon.”

Just then, Dantalian appeared in the Clan House.

in a translucent form.
