Chapter 940

“Your Majesty, why don’t you try and participate in the Infinite Battlefield?” Carron said.

Minhyuk, listening silently to him, piped up, “Even if I participate in the Infinite Battlefield, there’s no player in there that would accept a duel with me.”

Minhyuk was also very interested in the Infinite Battlefield, where players could bet as much money as they wanted on a match. The other side would then bet the samount, and whoever won would take everything.

Many players have distinguished themselves and made a nin the Infinite Battlefield. Even the skilled ones with excellent control could obtain much more gold in this place than doing quests or hunting monsters.

The only problem was that if he had set a condition, an opponent with a similar set condition would be chosen randomly. Only after they had given their approval would a match be set. And just like Minhyuk said, if someone saw Minhyuk’s nthere, they would never approve of it. Who would even dare to fight the Supreme?

“Ah. I completely understand what you’re concerned about.” But Carron shook his head. “You must have missed it since you have been so busy. There has been much improvement in the Infinite Battlefield since the update two months ago.”

Minhyuk’s concerns were a problem that many rankers faced. Yes, none of them could fully enjoy the Infinite Battlefield.

“Players are now given the right to create their unique nickninside the Infinite Battlefield. They can also change their classes and choose one among the dozens of new classes available there.”

“Dozens of new classes?”

“Yes. Players would often have the urge to develop a new class every once in a while, right? Let’s take Your Majesty as an example. If you choose the swordsman class, all your skills as a Food God would automatically be modified and applied as a swordsman’s skill. You will also be given the basic skills of a swordsman fit for your level, like Enchant. If you choose the swordsman class, then you will also be able to use Enchant. However, using only those basic skills wouldn’t be the right choice.”

Minhyuk listened to Carron’s explanations intently.

“This is because you will only have the effects of Enchant. And what about the other outstanding players? Of course, they would have something more. Their transformed skills would have far better effects than Enchant alone.”

Minhyuk nodded in understanding as Carron continued, “Anyway, the point here is that you can choose a new class and change your nicknto hide your identity in the Infinite Battlefield. And there’s one more important thing. Let’s say this is the Infinite Battlefield of the past. If your opponent is ‘Minhyuk. Level 643’, would your majesty accept it?”

“This assumes that I’m a regular player, right?”

“Yes.”

“I will never accept it.”

Yes, that was right. No one would ever accept him as an opponent. Of course, the system would match him with someone at a similar level. However, no one would want to fight Minhyuk head-on by themselves.

“Because of that, they have updated it so players participating in the Infinite Battlefield can lower their level.”

“Lower my level?”

“Yes. For example, if a player at Level 600 lowered their level to Level 300, all their stats and skills would be lowered to match Level 300.”

“But even if you do that, a ranker would still be a ranker, right?”

Rankers weren’t called rankers for nothing.

“Many people think that way. However, the desire and urge to win, even if faced with a ranker, is the essence of the Infinite Battlefield.”

Minhyuk felt like his participation was becoming more and more tangible the more Carron, who was very reliable and trustworthy, continued.

“Also, players going to battle rankers of the slevel can also choose to use the High Risk, High Return option. This option would also allow the players to match with players with a 10-150 level difference with them. However, if the player bet 10,000 gold for the match, the chosen opponent would have to offer a higher gold. This compensated for their higher chances of winning against the player who initiated the match.”

Minhyuk momentarily pondered this option and realized that it could be pretty amazing. The fact that one could choose to match against opponents who were 10-150 levels higher than them would either mean that they were confident or that they had huge pride backing them up.

“There’s also this. If you win against opponents with a higher level than your current level, you can obtain special points called Infinite Points after winning ten consecutive matches. It is a testament to how one continuously fights and wins against those with a high winning rate. Simply put, it is a special privilege given to those who achieve something others don’t dare to do. The most important thing here is that you can gather and accumulate Infinite Points and use them to buy various things in the Infinite Store like artifact materials, gold, or cooking ingredients.”

Minhyuk looked like he was now very, very tempted. But then, he thought of something. Then, he said, “The Infinite Battlefield also has disadvantages, no? Say, if I choose another class, then I wouldn’t be able to get much benefit. As a Food God, I do not have many attack skills. I don’t think I will be able to have any clear advantage when fighting against players of the slevel if I choose to take on a new class there.”

Of course, his current attack skills would be transformed. However, Minhyuk was concerned about whether he could match players' skills around a hundred levels higher than him and win with just the Food God’s skills.

Then, Carron said, “I think the Food God class is the best class among all the existing PVP classes when the level is lowered.”

Minhyuk immediately perked his ears up and focused on Carron.

President Kang Taehoon was delighted when he heard Player Minhyuk decided to participate in the Infinite Battlefield.

“A powerful and influential player, considered the Supreme, will participate in the Infinite Battlefield.”

Of course, Kang Taehoon was aware that the Food God’s level would be lowered so he could participate in the PVP matches. In the other’s eyes, the Food God class seemed to be a class that would never be able to exert any shocking power in PVP. However, this was only the case because no one knew the exact advantages that the Food God had.

“The class with the highest stat for their level in Athenae is none other than the Food God.”

That was right. Among all the players in Athenae, the one with the highest stat-to-level rawas the Food God. The Food God had around 1.5x more stats than the general players.

Why? Initially, the Food God had a skill called Food God’s True Worth, which allowed him to raise his stats by eating. Minhyuk, who only looked for delicious things to eat every single day, experienced a high increase in stats compared to other players, even without meaning to.

“This is good.”

President Kang Taehoon could already see it. He could predict that the somewhat dull events held for the Infinite Battlefield would becvery interesting this time.

***

The Infinite Battlefield also had a ranking system. This ranking system was determined by one’s total wins and winning rate. Even lower-level players could becrankers if they had excellent skills and control.

Logan, who ranked 1,320th in the Infinite Battlefield rankings, had been active since the early days of the Infinite Battlefield. He also boasted a high winning rate, with 11,375 wins out of 13,313 matches. It was so high that it was enough to make him shine. Logan was also a BJ and had a relatively stable number of audiences he had attracted with his funny comments and ability to overwhelm and defeat his enemies.

“Bros, I really can’t get a good match today.”

Countless viewers jumped in to comment when they heard Logan sigh.

[You crazy bastard. Kekekeke. Can you really do it like this?]

[Hey, where’s your conscience...?]

[Don’t you think expecting a match with your high winning rate is too much?]

Logan smacked his lips. Indeed, his winning rate was truly too high. He could only either find players who bet low or fight against someone with a higher level than him.

Ring!

[You have a match! Please check your opponent for the match!]

The notification for a successful match rang. Logan immediately went to check who he was matched with.

[Nickname: Captain Rice

Matches: 0 Wins: 0 Losses: 0

Bet Amount: 10 platinum

Class: Assassin. Level 341]

Logan’s eyes grew wide. “B- Bros! This is a pushover, right? We got a pushover, right?!”

The guy that he matched with had 0 wins and 0 losses. However, the bet amount made Logan think his opponent was a pushover. It was in platinum!

[Wow! It's a real pushover. Guaranteed!] ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt

[Those people entering the Infinite Battlefield for the first twould always think that their skills in hunting monsters would work for PVP. Lol.]

[The bet amount is huge!]

[Maybe he’s a chaebol?]

Logan immediately realized that he would be able to film sfun and exciting content today. He had already imagined the title of his ZTube video. It would go like this: ‘I showed a newbie who knows nothing about what the world is like.’

Logan and the viewers felt like the opponent was too cheeky and pretentious.

‘Is there really a player who will bet ten platinum for their first match alone?’

The bet amount of ten platinum presented to Logan right now was truly too high. In fact, it was an amount that he could only see once a month.

Of course, there was also a chance that the opponent was a famous ranker. But inside the Infinite Battlefield, it wouldn’t matter if one was a ranker. If they challenged others recklessly like this, then they would suffer. Why? There was a vast difference between high-level rankers and Infinite Battlefield rankers, who specialized in doing PVP.

“I’ll make sure to do a good job in comforting him. Haha!”

Logan immediately agreed to the match. All that was left was to obtain the other party's consent.

‘Con, fish. Bite! Bite! Bite! Bite!’ Logan desperately prayed.

[The opponent has approved the match!]

[The Infinite Battlefield begins!]

A flash of light engulfed Logan. When he opened his eyes, he appeared inside the Infinite Battlefield. The Infinite Battlefield would appear in different forms.

‘So, it’s a desert this time.’

Logan chuckled. Just like he told the viewers, he intended to cut down the player who knew nothing about the Infinite Battlefield and comfort him immediately. He boasted, “Gosh. He made a huge mistake in his first match in the Infinite Battlefield. I’ll make sure to go easy on him.”

[Lolololol.]

[You’ll go easy on him?]

[He sounds kind, but he doesn’t look like it. Bwahahahaha!]

[Yep! He’ll cut the opponent down in ten seconds. Kekeke!]

“Ah, bros! I’m not that kind of person.”

At that moment, Captain Rice’s figure appeared in front of Logan. He was dressed as an ordinary assassin, with his face covered with a mask. Captain Rice was constantly changing the weapon in his hands.

“Dagger.

“Longsword.

“Axe.

“Dual sword.

“Oh... this is fascinating.”

[No. pfft. Lololol. This is his first time!]

Inside the Infinite Battlefield, one could equip whatever weapon they wanted and use any equipment they had. They could also transform their weapon and equipment into whatever form they wanted. Just like how their character was adjusted, their artifact’s abilities would also be changed and tailored to the level that they were currently in. Of course, God-rank artifacts could exert much stronger power even if transformed.

“But since I’m an assassin, then I should use the dagger,” the man said as he stood before Logan.

At this point, Logan understood that the man did not use a dagger and was not an assassin-class player.

‘He’s full of mistakes. Well, anyway, he’s just a newb.’

Players would always have this thought in mind, ‘I think I will be good in that class?’

But the reality was different. Their chosen class would be less powerful than the one they had played for years. This was especially the case for assassins, a class that required a high amount of control.

“Please catfirst. I will be as gentle on you as I can.”

“???”

“And... Please don’t feel too heartbroken even if you lose. This is the only way for you to learn.”

“Ah. Thanks! I will accept your kindness wholeheartedly!” The man answered cheerfully.

Meanwhile, Logan firmly believed that he would be teaching an Infinite Battlefield newb today.

Flash–

“...?”

Logan could not see where his opponent went.

Spurt–

Then, blood spurted out from Logan’s side.

‘What the hell... is this...?’

[Your HP has dropped below 75%!]

Logan could not understand what just happened. Even if the players of Infinite Battlefield had good artifacts with them, there had been no case where they could deal this much damage with a basic attack. Besides, he and his opponent were clearly on the slevel. To put it simply, this amount of damage should have been impossible.

The flustered Logan finally found out the reason. ‘Stats...?!’

If the opponent possessed incredibly high stats, the story would be different.

Logan was a fighter-class player. In reality, he was also a practitioner of mixed martial arts and was versed in various martial arts used worldwide. He could not be easily dealt with. So, he tried to move to defend himself from his opponent’s attack.

Flash– Flash, flash, flash– Flash–

A fierce battle ensued.

‘Are you tellingthis is his first tbeing an assassin?! No. Wait. This...!’

“Gnawing Assassination.”

Unfortunately, before Logan could finish the thought, blood spurted out all over Logan’s body as his opponent stabbed him with his dagger thirty times in just two seconds.
