Chapter 310: The Battle

It was precisely because Seong Seungmin could not accept these things that he had left and started working independently.

And now, although he had only spent a short time with the other party, he could still tell that Joo Joowon was actually not much better than the wolf race.

This was not to say that Seong Seungmin cared much about hierarchy or status. On the contrary, he did not care about their offenses at all, because he genuinely regarded all of them as "beast pets" and did not consider them to be equal to himself in status.

This subconscious reaction was actually the reason Seong Seungmin did not have many doubts about Joo Joowon.

A person’s subconscious thoughts could not be faked.

So after finally breaking free from that kind of life, did he really have to invest himself into another force that was not much different from it?

Seong Seungmin was truly conflicted. He seemed to be able to feel the gaze from behind him, as if it were asking, "How are you going to choose?"

The psychological pressure at this moment was infinitely magnified, and sweat could not help appearing on the pads of his paws.

Joo Joowon stroked Byeol’s fur, which had puffed up, thoughtfully observing the way the other party dodged with ease. He did not look like someone who could not fight, yet he still only dodged without attacking. In other words, was he unable to attack?

A game restriction?

No wonder the game did not mind players refusing to shop in the game store.

Joo Joowon had previously wondered what would happen if game players were bribed or "invested in," allowing them to purchase high-quality goods from risk zones at low prices and use them to help themselves rise and disrupt the game’s balance. Now it seemed that the game had already imposed restrictions to prevent such situations from happening.

Or perhaps, even if it could be done, the price would not be low?

Looking at it this way, the design blueprints Seong Seungmin had provided should also have been against the rules?

The price did not match the value.

Then who would the game’s punishment mechanism fall upon? Would it give the player a chance to defend himself?

Joo Joowon could not help sighing. How did those scammers who deceived everyone and managed to thrive while everyone believed them actually do it? He even suspected that he had already fallen into more than one trap.

Feeling Joo Joowon suddenly sigh, Seong Seungmin’s heart tightened on the other side.

He understood that the other party was no longer planning to give him any more time to hesitate. Even if the other party had been unlucky enough to reincarnate into a world like this, that did not mean his own faction had completely abandoned him.

Putting everything else aside, dealing with him should at least not be difficult, especially since the other party also seemed to hold grudges.

Did he still have a choice?

Seong Seungmin could not help smiling bitterly. In the end, greed had caused all this trouble. When he had first noticed that something was wrong, he should have simply refused. Otherwise, he would not have ended up in such a difficult situation.

As a venture capitalist, Seong Seungmin had not completely assessed the risks properly.

Now that things had come to this, he could only...

Seong Seungmin’s gaze became firm. He no longer hesitated and directly fully equipped his mechanical battle armor, switching to combat mode. With one grab and one clench, he immediately pulled a long silver white gun out of the void.

Although he had made up his mind, using a high-powered cannon directly was definitely not an option. That kind of attack produced an energy reaction that was far too obvious, and the compensation demanded by the game would also be greater.

If he could save even a little, he should save it.

A strange mechanical sound suddenly rang out. In the next moment, the long gun in his hand rapidly changed shape, revealing the dangerous black muzzle hidden inside.

"Boom!!!"

Brilliant flames erupted from the muzzle along with the thunderous roar, heavily blasting into the completely undefended Lightning Struck Tree. The scorching temperature distorted the surrounding space, and a huge mushroom cloud slowly rose into the sky.

Joo Joowon, who was nearby, watched in some surprise and finally confirmed the other party’s profession.

A War Path Mechanic.

If he remembered correctly, this was already a Third Rank supernatural being.

Then why was his fate so easily influenced?

Joo Joowon was somewhat confused.

The pungent smell of gunpowder smoke spread in all directions together with the mushroom cloud.

A rain of flames whistled downward, turning the surrounding area into a sea of fire.

The high temperature and the airflow produced by the explosion had already completely destroyed the Boss.

The natural flammability of wood meant that when the Boss was surrounded by the flames, it could only become fuel that helped the fire burn even more fiercely. Its special attributes did not allow it to remain unharmed within the flames.

This was a dimensionality reduction attack from a high-level world. Its artillery fire was vastly different from ordinary flames. As a result, the lightning-struck tree was completely swallowed by it without the slightest ability to resist. In fact, it could not even be said to have resisted. It had not even had time to realize how it had died.

Seong Seungmin slowly walked out from the smoke. The silver mechanical battle armor covering his body remained as clean as ever, as if he had never experienced a battle at all.

Joo Joowon watched with secret alarm.

Although he had already learned from the information provided by the game that the increase in strength brought by each Rank of a supernatural being was vastly different, without witnessing it with his own eyes, even if he knew that higher Rank supernatural beings were powerful, he still had no idea just how powerful they could be.
