The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 88: Round 6 Ends (1)

Hermes Feathered Helm comes with a unique option Invisibility.

Invisibility, as the name suggests, grants its user the extraordinary ability to become invisible. Its a skill particularly coveted by assassins, often considered the pinnacle of their craft.

When assassins reach level 20, they gain the skill of Invisibility. However, what makes this item truly remarkable is that it can be wielded by anyone, not just assassins, and its effectiveness remains consistent for all classes.

But, before you start thinking that Invisibility is the ultimate game-changer, theres a catch. This skill triggers the Perception skill, a common ability that allows individuals to detect concealed presences. In essence, while you can turn your body invisible, you cant muffle the sound you make.

Additionally, Invisibilitys effectiveness is limited by its cooldown period, making it less advantageous in combat situations.

So, why does Ryu Min hold invisibility in such high regard? Well, thats where the Rune of Concealment comes into play. This special rune, known as the Rune of Concealment, can be acquired in Round 9. It not only shields the user from Perception skill but also eliminates Invisibilitys cooldown, rendering it an incredibly potent combination.

Ryu Mins plan is clear: obtain the Rune of Concealment and pair it with an item possessing the Invisibility ability for a nearly unbeatable and broken strategy.

And thats exactly what will happen when Round 9 arrives.

For now, Ryu Min secured one of the two components of his plan. All thats left is to acquire the Rune of Concealment.

With Hermes Feathered Helm now in his possession, a message appears:

[Wearing Hermes Feathered Helm.]

[You can use the Invisibility skill as an option.]

[Temporary Skill Invisibility]

-Effect: You can completely hide yourself from your opponent. However, only the appearance is hidden and the effect does not apply to the sound.

The skill allows complete invisibility for 30 minutes, but any action, be it an attack or being attacked, dispels the effect. You can deactivate it at will, but it comes with a 30-minute cooldown.

This newfound skill, Invisibility, is now a part of Ryu Mins skill list. But as soon as he removes Hermes Feathered Helm, the skill vanishes.

Ryu Min acknowledges the value of keeping Hermes Feathered Helm, as Invisibility offers various strategic advantages. He doesnt have to wear it continuously; it can be donned when needed. And, should the need arise, it can be sold for a handsome sum, as items with skills as options are highly sought after, regardless of their grade.

Moving forward, Ryu Min faces a choice from a Special Reward Selection Box:

[You can choose one of the following special rewards.]

[Please touch the desired reward.]

1. Material Item Selection Ticket

2. 14,000 Gold

3. Information about Round 7

Typically, option 1 would offer either an experience boost or a stat boost. However, if neither of these options is available

This suggests that Round 7 has a unique quest that doesnt require either of these boosts. Other players might be tempted by the allure of extra gold (option 2), but information about Round 7 is paramount.

While the allure of gold can be strong, the value of information in Round 7 cannot be overstated. Its the kind of knowledge that can make all the difference.

But Ryu Mins biggest weapon is the experience and information from his 99th regressions.

In Ryu Mins mind, the choice is clear: option 3 is discarded, and option 1, the Material Item Selection Ticket, is chosen.

As soon as the choice is made, the Material Item Selection Ticket appears in Ryu Mins inventory. Without hesitation, he makes his selection:

[Please choose one of the following materials.]

[1. Broken Ironwood Branch]

[2. Bubbling Elixir]

[3. Tough Magic Shell]

[10. Angelic Golden Powder]

With ten options to choose from, Ryu Mins knowledge of material item uses comes in handy.

If you dont know the uses of each item, it will be meaningless what you choose. but for me

The decision is crystal clear to someone with his knowledge.

**Selecting Option 10.**

Upon obtaining the item, information unveiled itself.

[Angelic Golden Powder]

Category: Inventory

Description: Fine powder scattered from an angels hair. Its not dandruff.

Among the ten choices, this was the lone god-tier material.

Now, with just one more material, I can craft a god-tier item.

However, that remaining material wouldnt surface until after Round 8, so there was no need for immediate excitement.

ROUND 6 Ends

[Entire Area]

Survivors: 8,060,295

[Area C-ESKS007]

[Souls will return to their original bodies shortly.]

[Round 7 will commence at midnight on July 1, 2022. See you in the next round. Congratulations on your survival.]

Tap-tap-tap-tap-

As soon as his eyes fluttered open, An Sang-cheol sprang into action.

He made his way to the hotel room where the chairman was staying.

Click-click- thud-thud-thud!

Chairman!

While anyone else might have grumbled about the late-night intrusion

Click-clack- creak-

Ma Kyung-rok, the occupant of the room, opened the door with a puzzled expression.

Director An? Whats the matter that youve come rushing right after your return?

Um, can we discuss it once were inside?

Of course.

Upon entering, Ma Kyung-rok reached for the whiskey glass he had been sipping.

Before he could even suggest taking a seat, An Sang-cheol, his face radiating excitement, blurted out.

Chairman, my level has shot up dramatically.

Ma Kyung-rok swirled the whiskey in his glass.

Really? So did you level up by hunting alongside Black Scythe? Is it like he said? A six-hour-long hunting spree? Having received the same prophecy, Ma Kyung-rok was well aware of the situation.

So, how many levels is it? To the point that you came running so excited?

I went up from level 20 to level 34. Thats a whopping 14 levels up!

.

Ma Gyeong-roks hand, which was about to pour the whiskey, stopped in midair.

34? Are you sure?

Yes. It really went up a lot, didnt it?

Its worth getting excited about.

Ma Gyeong-rok asked, drinking his whiskey with a bitter expression.

But how did you gain 14 levels in 6 hours?

Black Scythe did all the hunting by himself. Our party members had a tough time keeping up.

But as a compensation, he took all the items, right?

Yes, but I dont regret sharing the items at all. I never imagined Id level up this quickly.

I find myself in the same situation. I never thought Director An would surpass my level

Chairman, what level are you?

29.

Ah.

An Sang-cheol decided not to say anything more. No matter what he said, it would make the chairman uncomfortable.

Is Seo Arin around the same level as well?

An Sang-cheol nodded discreetly while gauging Ma Kyung-roks reaction.

Hmm, Ive ended up with a lower level than Seo Arin. I need to step up my game.

Ma Kyung-rok, with a wry smile, refilled the whiskey glass.

Why dont you tell me, Director An? Did Black Scythe really hunt down the bosses so quickly?

Yes. He took out the Centaur in one hit.

So, thats why it was much quicker. Even though our team consists of five members, it wasnt as quick as that.

Having heard the prophecy, Ma Kyung-rok had naturally formed a party and targeted the Centaur first.

It took some persuasion to convince his party members, but they eventually hunted the Centaur successfully, securing the top spot in the area.

Is it true that it was in just one second?

Indeed. He used a skill Id never seen before, and the Minotaurs neck was sliced in an instant. It was the first time Id seen such a skill.

It should be a skill learned at level 40 since Director An is seeing it for the first time.

Ma Kyung-rok, who took pride in his skills as ranking 2nd or 3rd, couldnt hide his astonishment.

Killing the Minotaur with one skill in one second? Amazing.

There was no one who could boast of being able to kill a boss so quickly.

Is the gap between us and the 1st ranker this big?

Rather than being amazed, he felt bitter.

Can I become that strong when I reach level 40?
