A rumor circulated among Hunters that the reading restrictions on MirWiki is lifted.

Originally, access was limited to Single Number Hunters, but now it is said that any registered hunter can access it.

Hyun SeungAh, a member of Single Number hunters, posted on Hunternet for the first time.

Hyun SeungAh: Everyone! Did you see that?? Information on the Outer giant has been uploaded on MirWiki! Access restrictions have disappeared! Try it. Try it.

She didnt say that 10 Essence was needed to access information, and that there was no proper strategy.

As a result, many people lost 10 Essence and started complaining.

Han ChaeRim: Oh my god, Im going crazy. Who ate my essence?

Bae KangMin: This is not normal. Who lifted the access restrictions?

Lee HyeongJong: There is no proper information other than the outer giant was released.

Cha HwaYeon: SeungAh, are you kidding me now? No, it didnt write the strategy! Why would you want me to look at this?

Hyun SeungAh: kekekeke¹laugh Who told you to press yes? Temptation.

Cha HwaYeon: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The Hunternet free bulletin board was divided into those who read the information and those who didnt.

Because of the huge fee of 10 essence, lower-level hunters had to wash their hands off²Not join.

However, when they heard the information, they were all stunned.

To cut it off at the most important part.

Kangmin Bae noticed one part of the message.

Bae KangMin: Partial Considering the meaning of this sentence, I dont think the system has cheated. Because it said it was only partial information.

Park SeongHo: Then the completed version will be uploaded later, right?

Kim HyungSeok: But who wrote this? Seems not to be human.

Hyun SeungAh: I dont even know where the server is and theres no way anyone knows, right? God knows where.

Kim HyungSeok: A god.

Hwang SeonYoung: Even if its not a god, wouldnt it be a demigod who made a contract with the first awakened hunters?

Park SeongHo: So, who?

Hwang SeonYoung: The manager of the infinite library.

Park SeongHo: The demigod that advised the awakened to read books? Thats too obvious.

Hwang SeonYoung: No. He was the first demigod to offer a helping hand to the Awakened. Do you happen to know? Maybe theyre giving us information to help us this time as well. At that time, he was rejected.

Kim HyungSeok: I dont think I should say it here Ill write a secret post.

The story of the First Awakened and the demigod was well known, but it was still a delicate topic for discussion on the free bulletin board.

For a while, Hunternet was on fire with information on outer giant.

And it completely exploded when someone discovered that they could comment below the content.

The comment section of the Outer Giant was overflowing of hunters protesting against the author who they didnt even know who.

Kim KyungBaek: 1st place.

Hyun SeungAh: Oh, 2nd place!!

Bae KangMin: Lets not play ranked. Were not children.

Han ChaeRim: 3rd place not, give me back my essence, you scammer!!

Hyun SeungAh: kekekeke There are so many victims.

Cha HwaYeon: Hyun SeungAh, Lets see what Im going to do later.

Hyun SeungAh: But if I dont do this, you wont look after me!!

Kim HyungSeok: Im going crazy.

While the Hunters were doing so, Yoo Ji-Ha was playing in the dream, fiddled with his ears.

Whos cursing me?

He has never done anything insulting, so its strange.

Yoo Ji-Ha vowed to live by giving more to people.

***

Well

Yoo Ji-Ha stopped while walking in the garden with Beom.

The Status window is having a problem.

The essence suddenly increased to 325.

What is this? Is there an error?

The status window was very accurate and there was never an error.

Other stats are the same.

Just in case, he invested 10 Essence in endurance, and it went up by 1.

Where in the world did it come from?

Where did he get the essence?

The only thing he did was to record the Theradrones fight against the outer giant and play in the garden.

Somethings off.

He went back to the hut and opened the Infinite magic book, but nothing changed.

Yoo Ji-Ha then realized while scanning the passage that he had stopped in the middle.

I dont want to leave it like this.

After bringing a feather pen and ink, he wrote the attack strategy.

The method is to process ether stone into a mirror and reflect the monsters beam. If you control the direction well, you can return the brilliant beam to the Outer Giant. The power is enough to blow the shoulders and arms of the outer giant in one shot

This should be enough.

By the way, he should use the 315 essences somewhere.

Beom climbed over his shoulder and patted his left ear.

Huh? Lets go over there?

Wow. 

According to the childs will, he went to the Solar Apple.

[You can evolve solar apple with 100 essence. Would you like to pay? YES/NO]

I can raise this level.

In addition to stats, characteristics, and skills, it would be possible to raise the buff level of garden crops and animals.

With that in mind, he felt that 315 essences were never too many.

Because what sells the most is the stamina potion

It seemed to be better to evolve the solar apple first.

When he selected YES, the whole solar apple shone, and it became much bigger and lusher than it used to be.

Ji-Ha evacuated for a while when ripe fruits fell.

Yes, thats it.

[Solar apple LV2: When combined with Stamina Potion, recovery amount is increased by 30%, duration reduced to 70%.]

He put the fallen fruits in his backpack.

Now there are 215 left.

He doesnt need to fight so it is meaningless to invest a lot in stats.

The Blessing of the World Tree cannot be upgraded, so he turned to other characteristics and skills.

Good writing skills, I dont need this yet.

Alchemy and ancient magic require a lot of essence, so it was impossible to upgrade them now.

All that remains is plant-friendly and animal-friendly.

Lets raise animal friendly skill.

100 Essence was reduced, and animal friendly rose to LV2.

Now, Yoo Ji-Ha can exert influence over larger animals from a greater distance.

While the people who were looking at MirWikis outer giant went wild.

***

Hyun SeungAh was staring at the laptop screen with the guild members with bloodshot eyes.

Its been hours since theyve been watching at when the item will be updated.

And it was finally updated.

It did

What? I have to pay an additional 10 Essence to see the complete strategy? Isnt this crazy?

Its a complete robbery, a total swindler.

Who designed it, its very vicious. Its not even DLC³Downloadable Content extra content players can download after purchasing a video game.

Hunters around her said one word at a time.

Obviously, she paid the fee, but why dont it show her everything?

Unbearable, SeungAh closed her eyes tightly and clicked YES.

Essence can be earned again, and she was going crazy because she wanted to see it right now.

Finally, the completed strategy was released.

It was also strange that the outer giant was shooting a beam and block it with an ether stone shield.

Ah.

Shooting rays? Youre going to block it with an ether shield?

What? To think of making an ether stone into a shield.

It would be ridiculously expensive.

Even if its expensive, if you can catch an outer giant, its a profitable business. It says you can inflict fatal damage in just one shot?

But is it okay for people to see this? Now everyone knows the strategy.

I know.

While the hunters were muttering, a new message appeared on SeungAhs status window.

[You have obtained the completed strategy for the Outer Giant. Increases attack power and critical strike attack power by 15% in dungeons where Outer Giant is the boss.

Huh.

Those words came out.

When they saw SeungAh was trembling, everyone comforted her.

Cheer up. Essence is a bit expensive, but you can earn it again.

We will help you.

Uh Am I the only one who can see this? Did you not get a message saying that itll give an additional buff?

When SeungAh asked that question, everyones expressions changed drastically.

What buff?

It is saying that attack power and critical strike attack power increases by 15% in the Outer Giant Dungeon.

Really?

Thats awesome, its great.

I cant help but also see this.

I dont know who it is, but its awful.

Not everyone can catch an outer giant.

However, there were quite a few hunters who thought that one day they would be able to catch an outer giant.

China would not able to monopolize the outer giant forever.

Usually, dungeons intensively opened in one country are bound to spread throughout the world.

In other words, this buff is essential in order to attack the dungeon of the Outer Giant in the future.

The hunters, who realized that, was in alert.

As soon as Kim HyeongSeok received the information, he called the ether stone processing plant.

Turn one line into a joint. Yes. As for how to shape it, do you know the Buckler? Oh, you know that circular shield? Make it thin. Ill send you the drawing later, so lets make a sample first. Right Now.

He hung up and called the security team.

Call the government and.

HyeongSeok, who was trying to give instructions to detect, block, and cut the line related to the outer giant going abroad, paused for a moment.

He was wondering if this is right.

The person who made this system and MirWiki must have had a purpose to benefit the Hunters widely.

Now that theyve figured out a way to attack the outer giant a little bit easier, should Korean hunters monopolize it?

Thats what China did. The same goes for other countries. But

Should we be doing the same thing as them?

Normally, he would have given instructions to block the data without hesitation.

However, after meeting Yoo Ji-Ha, his mind has changed a bit.

What choice would he have made if he generously gifted his talents and time to the hunters?

Chief? Team leader.

A smiling face of Yoo Ji-Ha flashed into his mind.

HyungSeok let out a sigh.

No. I called the wrong number, so keep working.

click.

He threw the phone on the desk and sat down on a chair.

This would be right.

Strangely, he felt at ease.

HyungSeok smiled bitterly as he watched the number of views of the item Outer Giant increase.

I dont know who you are but youre hoarding essence very well.

***

Cough.

In the evening, while having dinner with Beom in the hut, Yoo Ji-Ha was startled by the change in the status window.

Whats happening all of a sudden?

Essence was increasing exponentially.

In the end, it stopped around 2,000, but sometimes it would go up by 10.

Where did this essence come from?

The only thing I did here was to write a little while playing.

In the middle, he was surprised to see the carnivorous plant, but all he had to do was check whether the crops in the garden were growing well.

Even though it was a garden that overcompensated for his actions, he could not think that it would give him 2,000 Essence.

Then what?

Is it also because of this?

The attacking method of the outer giant written in the Infinite Magic book.

It was clear that this was somehow connected with the essence in some way.

He doesnt know if the outer giant has appeared in real life, but he thought that if he let others know about his strategy, they would be able to catch it more comfortably.

At the same time, he was worried there would come a situation that required a lot of essence.

Even if I tell them, there is a problem.

He is not afraid to help people, but he didnt want to reveal the whole secret of this garden.

Its like the last line of deterrent.

Should I say that I went into the dungeon and saw the Theradrons fighting the Outer giant?

While thinking about this and that, Beom grabbed his pants and pulled them.

Wow.

Why? Go to the cave?

Only the night sea was waiting for them if they went there, so why is that?

When he and Beom with a glowstone torch went out to the night sea, Theradrones were gathered on the beach.

An unexpected situation welcomed them.
