chapter 1
1 – Possess – 1
There was a strategy game with an interesting concept. It was a game to compete to see which would be stronger between magic and cannons.
The player has to lead an army to conquer the world. Depending on the player’s inclination, he can choose a <traditional> country that mainly uses swords and magic, or an <innovation> country that mainly uses guns and cannons. may be
Traditional countries are strong when using traditional weapons such as swords, bows, and magic, while innovation-oriented countries are strong when using gunpowder weapons such as muskets and cannons.
A country with a strong traditional tendency from the beginning and an innovative country that gets stronger as technology is upgraded. The balance is good and the game itself is novel, so it can be considered a god game in its own way, but there were fatal flaws.
That means that there are 1000 playable characters each.
In this game, you can play many characters from common soldiers to emperors, and their status varies from commoners to royalty.
In addition, since not all characters were playable from the beginning, and certain conditions were met, certain characters were unlocked, so it was close to impossible to clear all 1000 characters.
It’s close to impossible. I said it twice because it’s important. What do you mean near impossible? It’s not impossible.
[Title: Age of Gunpowder and Magic 1000th character clearing. Anyone come see it.]
Set the room title and turn on broadcasting. It was a broadcast without a microphone or cam, but people started flocking to it like bees.
[Awakening the 1000th character? Isn’t it Gura? I only beat two characters in 126 hours of play.]
[500 hours. The combat in this game is damn hard. I quit because it was difficult at the achievement rate of 3.6%.]
[It’s like fishing. It’s only been a year since this game came out, how do you beat the thousandth character?]
Although there were many voices who doubted that it was nonsense.
As soon as I started playing the game, doubtful voices started creeping in.
[And the clear rate is 99.9%, which really means that you have cleared 999 characters]
[Then is it really the thousandth character?]
[How many hours a day did you do?]
[After a few hours and leaving aside, this is genius… ]
In the meantime, a chat that comes up.
[Maybe he used a hacking tool or cheat?]
Block the people who talk nonsense. How hard did I work to get this far?
And when I started playing with my 1000th character, people started to freak out.
[Wow, what was the trooper just now?;; Dodging arrows with your hands?]
After pausing the game for a while, I also hit chat.
[An arrow shot with the same side in front is judged as a curved shot, not a direct shot. The details are in the strategy I wrote on my blog before, so please search.]
People who are astonished at being able to dodge arrows. And after about 30 minutes, the chat started to become noisy again.
[I tried it after listening to the host, but it doesn’t work. It is possible to even predict where the arrows will come down, but it takes time to give orders to the soldiers to avoid, so it is virtually impossible to see and avoid.]
[That’s why you need to catch the arrows flying quickly and issue commands quickly. If you’re even a little late, you’ll just get an arrow.]
[It’s strange that that happens. I also have a reaction speed of 0.25, but I can’t react as quickly as you.]
[Wow, how high is the reaction rate of the host?]
[Looking at it now, the enemy shoots at the same time, isn’t it just a reptile level?]
Everyone makes a big fuss. It’s not that difficult as long as you practice, but without even trying it tsk tsk.
[Wow, what’s the point of eating heavy infantry with light infantry in an instant? It’s twice the AI power difference, but it wins with almost no damage]
[I thought only the physical was great, but the brain was also good.]
[If you were born in ancient times, you would have unified the continent]
[I want this man.]
Ignore the chaotic chat window and continue clearing the game.
As the game progressed, people’s chatting started to become tinged with astonishment.
In fact, if it was natural, it was natural. I wrote a lot of simple strategies on the Internet, but seeing it as a strategy and seeing the actual clear video are inevitably different.
[Wow… What’s the point of putting cavalry through enemy artillery? ]
[Is that con possible? Isn’t this synthetic? It’s a scam, a scam.]
[These infantrymen obviously walk, but why do they seem to be faster than the opposing cavalry?]
That’s because you’re predicting the enemy’s movements, man.
If I know where the other person is coming, I should go there first. As a result, I get there earlier than the other person.
In the end, it’s all strategy tactics. If you excel in strategic tactics, your 1st Regiment will be worth as much as the 2nd Regiment of the enemy.
Why isn’t it in real life? It was a case of defeating many soldiers with few soldiers. It was all because of the excellent strategy and tactics.
If you preoccupy the terrain well, strategize well, and don’t make mistakes, you can overcome unfavorable battles to some extent. And the person who did it faithfully is called a great commander in later generations.
‘The Age of Gunpowder and Magic’ is the same. If you preoccupy the terrain, strategize well, and make no mistakes, you can get ahead of the enemy.
I continued to show error-free play and the game kept clearing.
And the moment I cleared the 1000th character.
“Whoa… It’s a world first.”
The chat window pops up as if it will explode the moment you mumble. And suddenly the screen starts to change.
[Congratulations on clearing all characters! As a token of gratitude, I would like to give Siu the right to play the beta of the next game first. Would you like to accept? Y/N]
The moment I read that message, I couldn’t help but be astonished. The game company sent me a personal message! It was also a message saying that the right to play the beta of the next game would be given back to me first. I was afraid that the message would disappear, so I quickly hit the Y button.
“What’s next? Beta play priority? You mean there was a perk like this?”
YYYYYYY
As I continued to hit it, the Y button glowed and the message disappeared.
“done! It’s a beta tester win!”
The moment I thought that and cheered, my head started to get dizzy and my eyes darkened. damn what Did your blood pressure suddenly rise because you were so happy?
dump. He had no bodily sensations, but only hearing. I heard the sound of my body collapsing. Damn, you didn’t hit your head, did you? If you get seriously injured, you can’t play Age of Gunpowder and Magic 2…
—–
In the Age of Gunpowder and Magic, there was an empire that ruled most of the continent.
How can such a great empire exist? If you ask me, the answer is only one. “Arcadia Academy”
This huge empire has built an academy to teach nobles in the capital, and in this academy they teach swordsmanship, magic, divine magic, and everything else.
Teachers are also at the level where only the best talents on the continent are gathered. As a result, the talents of the empire had an average level that was different from that of other countries.
okay. That’s the setup I’m aware of. But if there is a problem…
“Rochepole student. did it come out right? A Rochepole student.”
“Ah yes! It is me.”
I hurriedly answered. Yes. I became a student at the academy. And that, too, by being possessed by an extra called Charles Jean Rochepole.
‘Even if you possess it, it’s not the main character, it’s an extra… ‘
Charles Jean Rochepole was an extra character without a presence. It was to the point where I was ambiguous whether such a character existed or not. Swordsmanship, magic, archery, and divine magic, none of which excelled, a genius among geniuses.
Besides, the family name is insignificant. NPC itself.
‘What should I do… ‘
If you give up clearing and live here as an extra, you will be safe.
‘The Age of Gunpowder and Magic’ is a game in which you must clear all 1000 characters. If you are possessed by such a game, the way out is obvious. It means clearing with ‘myself’ instead of ‘character’.
In other words, if you conquer the world, you can go home. But is Charles Jean Rochepollo’s world domination even possible? Wouldn’t it be better to just give up and make a living here as an extra using future knowledge to make money and live well?
‘However… ‘
As a result, I miss the rabbit-like games I left behind at home with my family and friends. Living in a place without games for the rest of my life is like torture to me.
Because of that, I wanted to go home somehow.
‘okay. Let’s clear it without giving up.’
However, since the possessed character is a trash character named Charles Jean Rochepol, it is impossible to clear it with the straight attack method.
But it might be possible if you change the way a little.
