I Am Stuck In A Beta Test For 1000 Years - Chapter 11

011

Chapter 11. It’s So Hard to Think of a Title

A level 14 Swordswoman would not be able to reach Ksenja’s level, but players would have an upper limit.

For example, Char.

He could barely defeat monsters of the same level in his first testing, but with the experience he accumulated from constant practice and dying over and over again, he was able to bring Zin’rokh back to life after 177 rounds. In the end, he could even dominate him.

This was growth.

Firstly, he was too familiar with it. Secondly, he understood his opponent too well.

There was not much to talk about when it came to fighting. In the end, it was just like playing cards. You have to solve the problems that the other party threw to you. If you could not solve it, you would take damage.

However, it was different for players.

As long as the players’ brain was normal, they would improve.

Since the players were still newbies, they could not help but feel a deep sense of awe and respect for Ksenja who had killed so many monsters.

“She’s so powerful …”

“Mom, can I be as strong as her?”

“Silly, I’m afraid you can’t. You’re a militia and she’s a swordswoman…”

…

Among the group of players, only Apple Pie’s body was trembling slightly.

The female thief twisted her legs uneasily and stared at the broadsword that was covering Char and Ksenja.

“What are they doing behind there?”

The more she could not get an answer, the more her imagination ran wild.

In reality, she was a good girl. She was quiet and gentle, with excellent grades, and had never used vulgarities before. She was a model student. Other than her flat chest, there was no other flaw.

However, under this calm appearance, she was a pervert who had been suppressed to the extreme.

In every sense, she yearned for excitement more than anyone else.

The feeling of being chased by the boars had been deeply imprinted in her mind, and the increased secretion of adrenaline and the suffocating pleasure could not be dispelled.

People would always associate an unforgettable feeling with something, and for her, this intense stimulation was linked to Char.

Suddenly, Ksenja pulled out her broadsword. The swordswoman in light armor was like a tiger. In a few breaths, she had cleaned up the remaining monsters as if they were melons and vegetables, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.

Char stood up and waved at the players.

“You guys can come down now!”

Apple Pie took the lead and rushed down, using her superspeed to arrive in front of Char. Her eyes were burning like a torch.

“Brother, what did you two do just now?”

Char was slightly taken aback, and then he smiled mysteriously.

“It’s best if children don’t ask about it.”

“I’m an adult.”

Apple Pie puffed out her chest.

“I just came of age a month ago.”

“Psychological adulthood and physical adulthood are two different things.”

Char ruffled her hair and turned to Ksenja.

“Hmph…”

Apple Pie wrinkled her nose.

…

A hundred Enchanted Wild Boars helped seven people complete the quest, but there were nine people present, not including Char.

“Either none of us complete the mission, or two of us leave the mission for the others to complete.

“We might not be able to gather 30 monsters in the future,” Char said.

Everyone looked at each other. After a few seconds of silence, a level 2 Militia named Moonlight stepped forward.

“I think it’s better to have two people give up, in case someone wants to go offline or something.”

“Who’s going to do so? Are you going to give up?” Someone asked.

Moonlight drew a beautiful arc with his long sword and coldly glanced at the man, who immediately shut up.

“I think I’m pretty strong. If any of you give up, I can help you later,” he said.

No one said anything. Char raised an eyebrow and was about to say something, but Apple Pie suddenly raised her hand.

“Me. I’m only here to play anyway.” She turned to Char. “Bro, look at how obedient I am. You’ll carry me, right?”

“Count me in.” Air Conditioner stood up and smiled indifferently. “It’s a small matter,”

Char nodded and crossed out their names, allowing the other seven people to complete their missions first and receive their rewards.

The light of leveling up flashed on the seven of them, and they still had a lot of experience left.

In terms of money, this was probably the most money they had received in one go since they entered the game. Each person received three silver coins.

A quest that earned them three silver coins could only be found a few times before they left the village.

Many people looked at Char with eager eyes, but he just shrugged and acted like he did not know anything.

“I’m sorry, everyone. The mission ends here. I’ll have to complete the rest of the mission with these two.”

The originally lively atmosphere froze for a moment and quickly became stiff.

“That’s not right, big brother.”

Moonlight jumped out with a frown.

“You didn’t say that giving up your spot was such a good thing. If you had said it, I would definitely have given up my spot!”

“It seems like both of them are good friends with you. Aren’t they deliberately setting us up…” Someone mumbled.

“Yeah. More people mean more power. What can’t we do together?”

There were unkind, neutral, and also some who spoke good words.

The people who were speaking at this moment were undoubtedly cunning foxes who had played many games. They would take advantage of everything to get what they wanted.

Although some people felt that this was enough and did not want to be greedy, they could not help but have no opinions and let others lead them.

When they heard that there was an advantage and someone was fighting for benefits that did not belong to them, their minds became active as well.

They just wanted to stir things up.

Even though Char had never interacted with players before, he was used to such things.

The United Holy Empire that the Paladin, Laurentia, was in had many such talents. Compared to them, the players were childish and cute.

Char was excited when he thought about how the players would be defeated by the Paladins of the United Holy Empire and then turn around.

Finally, there was some fun to watch.

“Alright, since you want to follow, then follow me.”

Char nodded with a normal expression.

He had 10000 ways to pass through the rotten forest, including blood sacrifices.

“You two go back.”

Air Conditioner gave his two underlings a look, and the latter two immediately understood.

Char’s aura as a boss was too deep for the two of them, and they did not want to disobey him, so they nodded and left.

As for the remaining five people, they all revealed victorious smiles, while Moonlight showed a hint of disdain toward Char.

He believed that he could see that Char was most likely an insider who had gotten some information from somewhere, which was why he was ahead of everyone on the first day of the server opening. “Fantasy World” was said to be closed for 1000 years. As long as he was accused of “Sneaking Data”, he would never be able to clear his name.

How to stand on the moral high ground and direct the country. How to mobilize the power of many people … As a media person, he knew everything.

‘So what? You’ll still lead us to complete the mission, won’t you?’

Before he knew it, Char had been labeled as someone who was easy to talk to, and as time passed, people would think that he was easy to bully.

…

The group set off again. Ksenja walked to the front without a word, and the monsters that were left behind were scared away by her aura.

The reason why the hundreds of boars dared to rush forward together was that the one driving the train was the Apple Pie, which made them lose their minds.

It had been a long time since they had encountered a monster, and the Moonlight was a little boring. When they looked up, they saw Ksenja beside Char.

Ksenja’s butt was shaped into an alluring shape by the close-fitting light armor, and it made people’s imaginations run wild when looking at it from behind.

His thoughts became active again.

“This guy seems to have mastered the technique of gaining favorability with NPCs… Although this game is open to all ages, who wouldn’t want to be in close contact with an eye-catching NPC?”

He thought to himself as he moved closer.

“Bro, how did you manage to get a favorable impression of her?” Moonlight squeezed through Air Conditioner and asked Char.

“Well, just do what she likes.”

Char laughed, not hiding anything.

“Just treat the NPCs as humans. Do whatever they like and try to make the things that they hate disappear.”

‘What nonsense?’

Moonlight rolled his eyes in his heart and continued to ask curiously, “Then… Then what about the one beside you?”

“She… She’s afraid of the dark, so you can do some things right now.” Char pointed at the glowing Fern on the tree.

“Use that thing to make a light stick and keep the brightness of the entire team above a certain value. Ksenja’s favorability toward everyone will increase. If it exceeds friendly, you can ask her to teach you [Power Slash]. Here, you can ask Air Conditioner about this.”

“Really?”

Moonlight looked over suspiciously, and Air Conditioner showed him the skill attributes.

[Power Slash level 1: The basic skill of a swordsman, Slash with medium strength.]

The level 1 Power Slash was AD*1.75. These numbers would not be written out and would be discovered by players. However, to Char, it was like a multiplication table.

“How did you know all this?”

“You’ll know when you explore more.”

‘What’s so high and mighty?”

Moonlight snorted in his heart. With a grateful smile on his face, he went to the roadside and rubbed a layer of fluorescent Fern on his sword.

The others followed Moonlight. For a time, the five of them walked through the dark, rotten forest with glowing sticks in their hands, and the haze was mostly dispelled.

Char coughed, and Ksenja glared at him unhappily. However, under Char’s pleading gaze, she turned around patiently and gave a polite smile to the people behind.

“Yo! The lady smiled at me!”

“It’s really useful! It’s really useful!”

‘Well, I did it.’ Moonlight thought.

He had already started to think of writing a post to make use of the power of public opinion to make Char spit out more stuff.

The title would be ‘The closed beta testing was just a joke. How many lies has the Illusionary Workshop told?’ There were only benefits and no harm in digging deeper…

Moonlight’s mind gradually opened up, and he had already left the game.

Suddenly, his wild thoughts were interrupted by the flapping of wings.

He raised his head and looked for the source of the sound alertly, but he saw nothing.

At that moment, the four people in front suddenly accelerated!

“What’s going on? Why are you guys running?”

Moonlight also wanted to speed up, but he bumped into something.

The sound of the sword hitting the ground became louder and louder. He got up from the ground and saw what was in front of him with the help of the fluorescent light from the sword. He suddenly shivered!

It was a headless corpse, its body bloated from soaking in the water, and there were fern and vines growing on its muscles…

A tentacle with thorns extended out of his neck, like a hand as it unyieldingly reached out.

“What… What kind of monster is this?”

Moonlight’s sanity value dropped rapidly as he hurriedly got up to escape.

However, when he turned around, he saw an even more terrifying scene!

The players around him had long been pounced on by the headless corpse that had appeared out of nowhere.

The reason they did not make a sound was that a head with wings was already covering their whole faces…

The sound of flapping wings gradually rang out, and in the blink of an eye, Moonlight was devoured by the heads with wings.

“Brother, why are we running? What will happen to the talkative Moonlight?” Apple Pie asked curiously. Her face was red, and her breathing was uneven.

“Didn’t I say that as a player, you should have the awareness of being a cannon fodder…”

Char stopped and leaned against Ksenja to catch his breath.

“Besides, the way to please an NPC is to make the things she hates disappear, right, Miss Ksenja?”

Ksenja rolled her eyes at him.
