Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

Chapter 166

# 166

166. Reason for not giving up (2)

[X month XX day]

The document started from the date.

I continued reading the text below.

[I received a strange file from a person named Loki.]

[It has a lot of difficult words. I didn’t know what it meant, but I read it to the end. Looking at the data he organized and analyzed, he seems to be a great person.]

[Wouldn’t it be better to use this ability for something other than games?]

[Anyway, I decided to imitate this person and keep a record of my play. Because it looks fun.]

“This is...”

[It seems like he left his play as a diary.]

I laughed blankly.

Is there anyone who writes something like this these days?

Also on the cell phone.

‘I received a strange file.’

The ‘diary’ seemed to start from the time I sent the strategy document.

[X month XX day]

[Clear the 15th floor. Han almost died.]

[It’s because of Aaron. It was twisted while trying to save him.]

[That guy works hard, but his skills don’t go up.]

[Useless guy.]

‘...Oops.’

I cheered Aaron in Niflheim.

[X month XX day]

[Clear the 20th floor. Han killed the dragon by himself.]

[I heard that being born with 1 star is bad? Isn’t the strategy strange?]

[Anyway, it seems like you did well, so I gave you a statue of a war horse. Han was also delighted.]

‘...’

[X-month XX]

[Han was dispatched to Niflheim.]

[I looked into Loki, and he seems to be a better gamer than I thought.

] I don’t know why you’re interested. Why? Thank you for your help. I thought about folding it, but it seems to be fun in its own way.]

The diary was written in quite detail.

Facility expansion, hero summon history, etc. Most of them matched my memory. It must mean that it was written without omission. It was unexpected.

[X/XX day]

[I was scolded by my mother to stop playing games.]

[X/XX day]

[Clear the 25th floor.]

[Kishasha is also useful. It was good to invest the price of rice. I’ll only eat ramen for a while.]

Of course, most of the content could be skipped, but Amkena’s impressions of Pick Me Up would be quite valuable information.

It makes it easier to understand the play style later.

As I was reading the diary, I stopped at one point.

35th floor. From there, the tone changed a bit.

[X month XX day]

[Iolka died in the 1st party on the 35th floor.]

[I thought Han was going to die in the last dungeon.]

[I’m glad he’s alive. However, it seems to be sad that a colleague died. I gave him a statue of a war horse to comfort him.]

‘...’

[It’s called artificial intelligence, but it feels strange.]

[Could an artificial intelligence this sophisticated exist?]

[It really seems to be alive.]

[I told my co-worker that he was sane . I was scolded a lot for this. He said he was addicted to gaming and advised him to quit. I don’t really want to quit.]

[Maybe I’ve gone crazy.]

[For some reason, the heroes felt close.]

I looked back at Issel.

Isel sighed with a complicated expression as if he was looking at the same part as me.

‘I wonder if he’s suspicious.’

I couldn’t imagine.

A guy who is just a gamer.

I was in a daze and shook my head.

You can admire reality, but you won’t believe it’s real.

It seems to be just a momentary emotion. From then on, things went back to normal.

[X month XX day]

[I don’t think this should work.]

[X month XX day]

[I was robbed by Han in a mock battle.]

‘....’

[5th floor strategy video check]

[05 : 35 – Han Gather the members and have a meeting. After that, the formation is determined. Build a barricade and start defending against goblins from three directions.]

‘Tactical post.’

If you create a facility, you should write it.

If my hero’s field of view is two-dimensional, Master’s is more like a three-dimensional multi-viewpoint. You can look down from above and see different parts of the battlefield at the same time.

‘I don’t want much from the beginning.’

The basic plan is made by me.

All you have to do is give the order at the right time.

Amkena still lacked the skills to attack independently.

maybe someday That is if you keep working hard.

In my experience, the process was more painful than enjoyable.

It will no longer be a game to enjoy.

“Isel. If you told me not to abandon the master, of course there must be a countermeasure? Can you touch the mock battle system? I want to change the map.”

I turned my gaze to the desk.

The map of the plains was almost complete.

“When the mock battle begins, print out the map as it is. Leave the center blank, three fortresses in the east, two bases in the west.”

I put on my coat and left the room.

Amkena was watching the replay after an unfortunate loss to a low-level bot.

Isel was following me with a firm expression.

If this guy belongs to Mobius, what he’s doing now is directly against the company. Because the company’s top executive, the director’s plan, has been turned upside down.

‘Have you already decided?’

If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have shown the document.

I untied the scabbard and handed it to Isel.

Since the sword itself is a mass of interference, it would be helpful.

[I’ll give it a try!]

“If it doesn’t work, don’t. There are other ways, so don’t overdo it.”

Isel disappeared with the light.

I passed the darkened stairs and headed to the first floor. There was a tactical post next to the space-time gap. When I opened the door and entered, I saw a familiar table and chair.

The difference from before is that the map on the table is being transformed.

A map that does not exist is being created. While the field was being formed, I looked at the Amkena’s control panel. Amkena seemed to be watching me who had suddenly entered the tactical center.

‘I haven’t done it for a long time.’

I muttered while looking at the sky.

First of all, give and take. Even if I know your thoughts, the basics will not change.

[Master ‘Han(★★★)’ proposes a mock battle. Do you accept it?]

[Conditions – 1 ‘Warring Horse Statue (5000G)’ per board]

[Yes (optional) / No]

[5000G is automatically deducted!]

Amkena accepted right away as if he had waited, and the warhorse statue was placed on the table.

I shoved the statue into a suitable place and shook my hands.

The map was complete. I take the hero formation. Amkenaga is on the monster side.

‘I’ll have to induce a strategy.’

Even if it’s a joke, if you repeat it, you’ll understand the meaning.

Of course, the mock battle continues after the third round. Until the perfect strategy comes out.

I cannot clear it alone.

It was like that when I was a master. I couldn’t talk directly, but I used to think of mission strategies with Siris and Yurnet. The means of communication at the time was also mock warfare.

[Babaram!]

[Let’s start the mock battle!]

[Type – 1 VS 1: Confrontation with AI]

The mock battle is composed of monster formations that are overwhelmingly advantageous, probably because of Issel’s help.

If you take the time while defending, you win the game. On the other hand, I had to attack the base and the fortress at the same time while splitting up my meager forces.

‘Notice.’

What does mock war mean now?

What can you do to help us.

If you don’t notice, Loki has no choice but to appear. If you have any concerns, you can send an email to consult. The ways were endless.

Of course, among those methods, the number of excluding the Master was missing from within me.

‘I’m curious.’

What will this guy be like in the future?

Shall we give up the game after being condescending?

There is no possibility at all. Then I would be like a dog chasing chickens.

Or...

‘A new ranker will appear in Pick Me Up.’

Climbing the tower vertically at terrifying speed.

The difficulty of the account is not the only drawback.

The harder the climb, the steeper the slope, the more the heroes grow and overcome their limits. Otherwise, they cannot survive.

Again, I don’t expect much from you.

You just have to stay where you are without giving up.

If that’s the case.

‘I do the rest.’

Of course it’s not free.

Wouldn’t you have to pay the minimum ticket price?

I laughed and waited for the mock battle to begin.
