Overgeared Chapter 744:
Chapter 744
“How did you know it was me?”
Jishuka’s eyes were shining brightly behind the mask . She was happy that Grid recognized her instantly . It was a happiness that couldn’t be satisfied even with her natural beauty and wealth .
“That . . . ”
“That?”
“ . . . I knew when I took a close look . Haven’t we been together for a few years?”
Grid didn’t answer honestly because he was concerned that he might be accused of sexual harassment . His roundabout words would cause anyone else to be suspicious, but Jishuka just laughed .
"You recognized me despite changing my voice and covering my face . . . ? Huhut . ”
“Huh . . . ? I’m not a stalker . Please don’t misunderstand . ”
“How interesting . ”
“ . . . ”
Grid was worried because he didn’t understand Jishuka’s mood . It was because he couldn’t assume she liked him, when she had topped the list of women that men were attracted to for the third year in a row .

Hidden Item .
Increases the maximum number of health potions and mana potions that can be held by one .
“Oh . . . ?”
The French trio had taken over Caroline and hunted numerous competitors so they obtained plenty of good stuff . It was natural that Grid would see great benefits from killing them .
Lululala~
Grid hummed with pleasure and handed the bow and arrows to Jishuka .
"The Red Phoenix Bow is more of a short bow than a great bow right? Use this as a replacement . ”
"Grid, you’re giving me this?”
Jishuka had been thinking of returning the bow that she received before to Grid . It was originally Grid’s item . Grid thought she didn’t want to be in debt to him and explained with an uncomfortable expression .
“I’m a cleric, so I can’t use the bow . ”
“Cleric?”
“Yes . ”
“ . . . ”
Jishuka naturally thought that Grid was a producer . Yet he was a cleric?
" . . . You’re not a magician or warrior? A cleric?”
“Yes . ”
“ . . . ”
Grid and a cleric . Was there any combination stranger than this? Grid shrugged at the confused Jishuka .
"I would’ve given it to you even if I could use the bow . Your archery is the best . Now drink this potion . ”
That’s right . Grid had already made up his mind .
"Jishuka, team up with me . Survive together . ”
“Yes . . . !”
Jishuka smiled and nodded vigorously . This was a terrible survival game where only three players could survive . She was relieved and happy that she could be with someone more reliable than anyone else .
***
One and a half hours after Battlefield started .
『 Now it’s hard to see a solo exhibition . 』
Most of the 166 survivors started teaming up . It was a natural phenomenon . As the number of survivors decreased, the participants in Battlefield could be identified relatively easily . They used their connections and ideas to hold hand with people of the same purpose .
『 Battlefield is an event designed to just every player’s abilities . . . It’s doubtful that the current flow is precisely what the S . A . Group wanted . 』
It was clear that a solo exhibition had been transformed into a team game . While there were people who thought like this . . .
『 Communication can also be considered to be an individual’s ability . Anyone who can get a competent and trustworthy team in this difficult situation has already proven their worth . I don’t think it’s a problem . 』
Teaming up was also an ability . There was many people who welcomed the situation . Generally, there were more of the latter .
-It’s a survival game of three people, so it isn’t strange to have teams of three .
-The ability to enter a good team or not depends on personal capabilities .
The Internet started to heat up . The 166 survivors were big names so the audience engagement increased . Who would be the last three among these strong people of each country? One person was for certain .
***
The moment Battlefield started, many people escaped to the underpass . The relatively weak judged that it would be easier to defend in the dark and complex underground rather than the relatively open ground . After escaping to the underground, they picked the right terrain, hid themselves and took the ideal defense posture . It was with the belief that they would be safe for a limited time, unless the map disappeared . But it was wishful thinking .
A disaster occurred . The identity of this disaster was Sword Saint Kraugel .
Dark visibility and narrow, complex terrain . From a general point of view, the underpass was a disadvantage to attackers . It was beneficial to the defenders that were established first . Other people didn’t go underground but Kraugel’s interpretation was different . Kraugel determined that it was possible to complete hunting in an enclosed underground space . The defenders lost items and lost escape routes in exchange for safety . He personally descended underground in order to knock down competitors who would be a potential threat . All the people he encountered died .
Words were lacking to express the godly talent . Therefore, he was praised as the sky above the sky . In a battlefield of control, Kraugel was invincible . While people couldn’t avoid his attacks, Kraugel neutralized attacks that came from all over the place . He was definitely beyond the category of a human . He was like an absolute figure in a movie .
‘Is it settled here?’
He succeeded in defeating the hundreds of competitors in the underground . He was the only one remaining .
Step, step .
Kraugel was the only person to kill over one hundred of the 1,500 Battlefield participants . To be exact, it was 127 people . This was in a record one and a half hours .
“Um . ”
Kraugel put all the usable items into his inventory and stopped as he was about to climb back up to the ground . The number of survivors had stopped at 166 for two minutes .
‘Are they starting to form teams?'
Given the size of the field, it was too early to see a lull in the 166 players remaining . Kraugel instantly realized that Battlefield was no longer a solo exhibition . Therefore .
‘I have to wait . ’
Wariness . What did he have to be afraid of when he was invincible? It was naturally Grid .
‘Grid is likely to have assembled the Overgeared members . ’
Kraugel was a person who appreciated Grid’s potential from the time when Grid hadn’t yet been acknowledged by the world . He was always wary of Grid . Control, speed, and communication were all considered . As a result of this calculation, he judged that he had low chances of winning at the moment . If Grid gathered the top talents of the Overgeared Guild then even Kraugel would suffer .
‘I will wait . ’
Kraugel hid in the darkness of the underground . He was prepared to wait until the number of survivors decreased further . In the meantime, he would knock down anyone who came underground .
***
It had been two and a half hours since Battlefield started . There were only 30 minutes left and the map had shrunk by a third compared to the beginning . The surviving 32 participants struggled while Kraugel also prepared to move from the underground .
“My Lord . . . !”
The plane containing the Mongolia representatives . As soon as he entered the Battlefield, he cast a wide area taunt and was honored to be the ‘first’ . . . No, Huroi suffered a bitter cup of hardships . He was watching Grid on the monitor . Since joining up with Jishuka, Grid’s team had focused on securing arrows and scriptures . On the other hand, the other survivors had teams of at least three to five . Kraugel was alone, but he was an outlier .
“My Lord is at a disadvantage . . . !”
If only he was competent! When he first logged onto Battlefield, he should’ve sworn at only one person instead of using a wide range provocation .
"If I did, I would’ve been by My Lord’s side right now! It’s an irreversible mistake!”
“ . . . Sigh . ”
The other Mongolian representatives sighed with relief at his words . If Hurio had survived and kept cursing, they thought that Mongolia would’ve been disgraced . They thought it was good that Huroi was eliminated early .
***
[After two minutes, this space on the mini-map will disappear . ]
Beep beep!
The intervals between the warning windows gradually shortened . The survivors found it hard to find a space to hide . The distance between each other narrowed until they could see each other among several small buildings .
"Now the real fight will start . ”
“There is no party greater than ours . ”
The 32 survivors were filled with confidence . In particular, the party of Regas, Pon, and Lauel were amazing . The strongest party that combined the best brain and best control . They believed that they could fight any opponent and win . In fact, they had consecutive winning streaks until now . No one could stop their momentum .
“Huhuhut . . . Even His Majesty can’t stop us . ”
Lauel gave a wicked laugh . In fact, the viewers recognized these three as candidates for the championship . They thought that even Kraugel couldn’t win . So far, the abilities that Pon, Regas, and Lauel showed were great . But they had a poison . It was Grid .
“Everybody listen!”
“ . . . ?”
The survivors gazed at one side after hearing a voice . There was a duo consisting of a man and woman . The man was shouting .
"From now on, I will make an item for anyone who surrenders!”
“ . . . ?”
Who was suddenly saying such nonsense? As everyone was feeling confused, Lauel paled .
“That’s cheating . . . !”
“I am the Overgeared King!”
“ . . . !”
The survivors started to shake .
