ACT 9 Truth of the World Trees

A remarkable event took place in Selebrid a few days ago!

He heard an excited voice as soon as he turned on the TV. It was the voice of the female reporter in charge of the game scoops.It was the weekly corner that dealt with events in New World. This week the corner was on the monsters attacking Selebrid.The male reporter was an actual gamer and described it with a serious expression.

As everybody knows, Selebrid is the capital city of the Schudenberg Kingdom where most users started. A large number of guards are concentrated around the palace, in the city and even in the suburbs. As a comparison, not even a dragon would be able to break into Selebrid.

But didnt an event which tore apart common sense occur?

Thats right. Surprisingly dozens of monsters managed to break into Selebrid.

Lets see the footage.

Soon after the screen changed and the Selebrid square appeared.There were merchants leisurely strolling the streets, lovers dating in front of the fountain, people enjoying a nap on the benches.it was indeed a peaceful scene.But at that moment, an area in the square distorted and a gate appeared. And dozens of monsters with terrifying appearances exited.

Ugh, w-where is this?

There are foreigners. So many foreigners.!

All of them are enemies. Kill!

The monsters looked around and began to wildly attack the users.Fortunately, the emergency signal went off and the guards were able to handle the mobs with no problems. However it left a deep wound in Selebrid who prided themselves on not allowing monsters to invade.The screen returned to the studio.

A truly shocking scene. What is going on?

Its difficult to say at the moment. The senior magicians immediately mobilized after the incident to investigate the gate but no official announcement has been made. I can only guess that the gate the monsters came through is connected to another dimension.

The female reporter asked with a surprised expression.

A different dimension? Other dimensions exist in New World?

Of course. Although it hasnt be officially announced by the publishers, typically users know that there are several dimensions including middle earth.

Thats right. That must be why so many users are interested in this incident.

Yes, so far there have only been rumours but the different dimensions were confirmed for the first time. Opinions are also mixed on whether this might cause another Event Quest like the one in Jackson. But the production company Global Exos..

Hyun-woo never expected that it would appear on TV.Hyun-woo was the main cause for the monsters attacking Selebrid.While facing Duke in the woods near the valley village, he had created the dimensional gate using the Dimensional Movement Powder to get rid of the Nakujuk.Yes, that exit for that gate was Selebrid. He had gathered the Nakujuk and the pushed them through the gate.He had forgotten about it until it suddenly appeared on TV.Ark smiled wryly and sat in front of his computer.He wanted to confirm the situation in the auction.

-The auction is complete. Death Engraved Stick: 11,100,000 won.-The auction is in progress. Magaros Deluxe Alchemy Tools: Currently 9,000,000 won..

He received the best profit from the Netherworld items.As expected, they sold at exorbitant prices.No, to be honest he hadnt expected that much for the Death Engraved Stick. He put it on the auction for 5 million won but the price went up to 10 million won in 1 day.The auction climbed so quickly that he even started to expect 20,000,000 won. But afterwards it only rose by 100,000 won and eventually it ended up being sold for 11,100,000 won.

There arent that many users raising Necromancers.

However selling 1 item for 11,100,000 won was clearly a jackpot. On the other hand, Magaros Deluxe Alchemy Tools wasnt rising by a huge amount but it was rising steadily.There were still three days before the auction finished so he might end up receiving even more than the Death Engraved Stick. He expected it to sell at a higher price.Unlike the Necromancer, there were plenty of users raising alchemy.

I might receive 20,000,000 won even with the handling fee.

Hyun-woo currently had 12,000,000 won in his bank account. He spent around 6,000,000 won every month so he had saved quite a lot. If he added this income then he would have 32,000,000 won.But for Hyun-woo it was strange to have money. He felt more uneasy.Money was a truly mysterious fellow. Whenever he gathered a little bit it always seemed like he needed more. Hyun-woo also felt the same.He started having many thoughts once he gathered some money.

If Mother becomes a lot better in the future then she might be released from hospital. When the time comes Ill have to move to a more sanitary house for her.. And I should really put aside money for a game unit in case the entrance examination suddenly ends.

But when he compared it to his past, they seemed like happy worries.

Anyway, my income is unstable so I cant spend money recklessly. And I need to make more profit after thinking about my plans for the future. In addition, I spent 3,500 gold this time to create a store. Most of my spending is in investments. For the meantime I should tighten my belt.

Hyun-woo was moving the mouse when he suddenly stopped. He saw an unexpected message.

-You have received an instant purchase request.

Plated Gauntlets of Corrupted Hatred: 4,000,000 won.
