Closed Beta That Only I Played

Chapter 451: Second Kuhana (2)

“Given its performance, don’t you think we can rely on it?”

One man opened his mouth, pointing at the Land of Despair that was still expanding.

Then, the red-haired man who boldly commanded the attack on the Heblock Guild members opened his mouth.

“I think we can. We created this Land of Despair by sacrificing Kuhana as an offering. So Juyoung Hong will never be able to stop this.”

“But I heard that this kind of debuff doesn’t work on him at all…”

“That’s right. Back then my colleague also told me that he witnessed the Royal District rulers’ privileges not working on him at all.”

“I know.”

“Really?”

The members of the 19th Major District, who were cultivating the seeds of despair on Earth that they had obtained via the owner of the Royal Districts sacrificing Kuhana, were a little surprised at their leader’s response.

But they nodded immediately after they knew why.

[You are now in the Land of Despair.

-You belong to Kuhana.

: All stat points increase by 50%.

: Your health and mana increase by 50%.

: Your passive skills’ performance increases by 50%.

: Your active skills’ performance increases by 50%.

: After you use the skill, its cooldown decreases by 500%.

: Your combat power continuously increases by up to 50%.

: The auto-recovery of your life and mana is greatly increased.]

They obtained the Land of Despair that buffed them up by offering the whole of Kuhana as a sacrifice. And the owners of the Royal Districts also belonged to Kuhana. So they would receive a tremendous increase in stats and skills.

For the stronger a person was, even a 1% increase would dramatically increase their power.

“The other rulers of the Royal Districts have also recognized Juyoung Hong’s monsterful power. They were clearly concerned that he could destroy them. And that’s why they used such extreme methods such as sacrificing Kuhana.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Those who came from the 19th Major District could not dispute their leader.

Why? Because they had also witnessed Juyoung Hong’s monsterful power when he destroyed the rulers of the Royal Districts.

In any case, those vanguard members who killed the Heblock Guild members hid deep into the Land of Despair, preparing to make this place their second Kuhana.

They were ready to make this second Kuhana a heaven for those who belonged to Kuhana and a hell for those who did not.

The next day.

At my father’s call, I went straight to the small meeting room without accessing Revival Legend. Then I took a seat right next to my brother and sister.

“What’s the matter?”

As soon as I sat down, I asked my sister sitting next to me.

“Well. I just got a call from Dad that I should come to the small meeting room urgently. Do you know why, brother?”

“Well, I don’t know the details, but I heard vaguely that something unusual happened in Australia…”

Since my brother and older sister didn’t seem to know the details, it was obvious that this was their first time hearing about it.

So I waited for a moment, then Dad and Director Sok entered the small meeting room together.

“Thank you for coming here. But I will explain to you in detail after we play the video first.”

As soon as Dad sat down at the head table, Director Sok opened his mouth and played a video right away.

The screen was full of red and black land, nothing else.

While playing the video, Director Sok said, “The place you are looking at now is Australia. We obtained this video about 30 minutes ago. Starting off with the center of Australia, more than 50% of the land has been changed to red and black land as you can see in the video. It’s called the Land of Despair. In particular, according to the data sent by the Antalagos Information Guild, it’s not a simple group that appeared there by passing through the expanded passage connecting Kuhana to Earth, but the whole of Kuhana. The whole of Kuhana is moving right now, and the starting point is Australia.”

The extended passage, which was supposed to expand more over time.

But I never thought that Kuhana itself would move through the expanded passage as a whole.

Director Sok continued, “That place called the Land of Despair causes a tremendous debuff. And those debuffs are huge. At the same time, we confirmed through those who were killed while confronting the enemy in the Land of Despair that the debuffs were serving as buffs for those belonging to Kuhana, not Earth.”

Everybody in the small meeting room began to whisper all of a sudden.

When Director Sok was done explaining about the debuffs called Land of Despair, the small meeting room became a little noisy because they had never seen such debuffs.

Obviously the debuffs in question were fundamentally different from the typical debuffs they had experienced until now.

If the debuffs served as the buffs for those from Kuhana, it was certain that their combat power would increase tremendously.

But that did not affect me.

So I asked Director Sok another question.

“Is it possible for the Land of Despair to move beyond Australia to other continents?”

“I’m not sure about it yet.”

“Hmm… let me go and check it out.”

Of course, I didn’t have to because it happened in Australia.

But they were my enemy.

In the end, I would be killed by them if I didn’t kill them first.

In other words, just watching without doing anything was not a good choice not only for the Australians but also for me. action

So I decided to fly to Australia to check with my own eyes what’s going on there.

I didn’t have to delay my departure for Australia because I had already made my decision, so I departed from the Myongjin Shelter right away. I stopped over in the Philippines, Indonesia and East Timor before arriving in the Tiwi Islands, one of the northernmost islands in Australia.

The people there were already visibly uneasy.

“Did you hear about it as well? The Land of Despair has already reached Daly Waters.”

“What? It means they’re not far from this place!”

“Correct. It will reach us in about three or four days if we just consider the distance. But considering that they are expanding their territory at an increasing pace, they can reach us much earlier.”

“Damn it! Then, shouldn’t we get out of here right away?”

“That’s why people are making a big fuss everywhere. I arrived here at this island by escaping mainland Australia, but if the Land of Despair crosses the sea, we are not safe here, either.”

“By the way, if the Land of Despair can cross the sea, the entire earth will eventually be covered by it, right?”

“…”

“…”

“…”

“Shit! I wonder if our Earth will be ruined. Those who have raised their reality actualization rate will only see their combat power decrease, but the moment ordinary people step on the Land of Despair, they will die immediately….If that’s the case, all the ordinary people have no other choice but to perish, right?”

“Hey, stop bullshitting! What did you say? Those who have achieved their reality actualization rate will see only their combat power decreasing? The thing is it will go down to the point that they can’t fight at all. To put it simply, the Land of Despair is going to maim them! For example, if your capabilities are 100, it’s going to go down to 20, 10 or even 5!”
