In the very center of the huge building was the statue that I saw in the photo yesterday.

But something was different. The red haze the statue was emitting was thicker than before.

Obviously, it wasn’t like this when I checked the picture.

In other words, there was not much time left.

At that moment, a man approached me. He appeared to be really old.

“Thanks for visiting Holdridge like this.”

At a glance, I realized that he was one of Holdridge’s top five executives.

So I shook his proffered hand and returned his greetings.

“You’re welcome. Thank you for inviting me here.”

After the meeting in the living room of the Myongjin Shelter yesterday, my family members and Director Sok concluded that it would be better for us to maintain a good relationship with the Holdridge Group for now, aside from the matter of the statue.

So I conversed with him with a smile on my face.

A little later I stood in front of the statue emitting a red haze.

“Whew!”

Of course, I was confident in breaking the statue. That’s why I flew here right away.

However, this was the real world, not the virtual world of ‘Revival Legend’, so I could not use my level 8 skills Ice Tornado or Ice Punishment, nor could I use my limited skill Savant. Besides, I was bound by a 65% reality actualization rate, so I was inevitably nervous.

Moreover, even if I disregarded the reward, I had to smash the statue unconditionally for the safety of me, my family, and those living in the Myongjin Shelter.

So I took a long breath and started attacking the statue.

At the top floor of the Holdridge Group’s headquarters.

A group of people, including the top five executives, gathered together to watch a video.

Then one of the top executives said, “Is it possible for Asirante to be unable to break the statue?”

“I don’t know. If such a worst-case scenario happens, we should implement Plan No. B right away. But I would like to see Asirante carry out Plan A successfully.”

Naturally, they did not trust Asirante completely.

So, they already prepared a new base far away from the United States because the statue emitting a red haze was no longer moving.

At that moment, the top executive who greeted Asirante and shook hands with him said, “Well, I think we can trust him for now. He is much stronger than we thought.”

He made a gesture, and something popped up before the other four top executives.

“…”

“…”

“…”

There was a momentary silence.

However, the man continued casually as if nothing had happened.

“Since my skill is still limited, I can’t see the traits from the beginning. I also can’t fully evaluate the rest of his abilities, but it’s still huge, isn’t it? In particular, Asirante’s main stat is Intellect because he is an ice=type wizard. That means his Intellect is higher than his stamina which is over 40,000.”

Those who remained silent expressed their opinion one by one.

“Yeah. Asirante has already proven it by inflicting great damage.”

“By the way, even disregarding his over 40,000 stamina and nearly 30,000 Willpower as a wizard, how come his agility is as high as 10,000?”

No matter how experienced they were, they could not help but be astonished by Asirante’s status window.

In the meantime, one of them expressed concern.

Of course, there were still people who were worried.

“But that’s definitely his status window within ‘Revival Legend’. It is too early for us to be reassured because we don’t know his reality actualization rate yet.”

“You bet.”

“I agree.”

“Let’s watch him first. By the way, shouldn’t we upgrade Asirante’s rating?”

“Sure.”

“I’m in favor.”

The top five executives stopped talking and focused on the screen where Asirante was attempting to attack the statue emitting a red haze. The most important thing to them right now was the statue’s destruction.

In front of the statue emitting a red haze in the huge building next to the Holdridge Headquarters.

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

…

I didn’t start with my strongest attack because if it failed, I would be in the worst situation. So when I saw that my attack did not even scratch the statue, I was not very agitated.

“Ice Spear!”

…

“Pouring Hail!”

…

The statue didn’t crack even when I attacked with Ice Spear, which was my strongest single-target skill aside from Ice Punishment. When even the strong Pouring Hail didn’t inflict any damage on the statue, I had no choice but to be startled a bit.

But I kept attacking the statue because I still had lots of skills.

After a while.

“…”

If I had been inside ‘Revival Legend’, I would still have had lots of options.

For example, I could use Savant that I could not use with my 65% reality actualization rate, and I could upgrade level 8 Ice Punishment with a functional skill ring.

In fact, with these skills I could break the wall perfectly, which the Mirae Guild players could not even scratch.

But this is the reality, not the virtual world. So I could not use such skills.

Of course, I had one more option. I could Ice Wave, which was my most powerful skill currently available.

But the problem was that if even Ice Wave didn’t work, I had no other skills that would work.

Moreover, I was worried that even Ice Wave would not work, given that all my attacks until now failed to make even the slightest crack in the statue. And I wasn’t the only one who got worried.

“No way! Even Asirante can fail?”

“If Asirante fails, who can we turn to?”

“Damn it. In the end, it seems like we can’t rely on Asirante in reality?”

“Whew!”

Since I had one more skill left, I took a deep breath before striking the statue again, which seemed to be emitting a red haze that was thicker than before.

Bang!

…

When I saw the statue didn’t crack at all despite my intense attack, I had no choice but to think these American bastards with the Holdridge Group really caused a big trouble.

Holdridge must have turned to all kinds of attacks to make even a little crack in the statue that didn’t throw out monsters like before. And it seemed like the statue developed resistance to such attacks, creating such a miserable situation.

Of course, I had another option. In addition to the exchanged coins that Holdridge collected so far, I needed to collect coins by investing tens or hundreds of billions of golden rings, even though one coin required as many as 1 million golden rings.

Tuk. Tuk. Tuk.

Obviously, the statue was shaped like a human.

Of course, there were no cracks in the statue itself.

However, the closed eyes of the statue began to open little by little, and started emitting red beams instead of a red haze.

And a message rang at the same time.

The statue has exceeded the threshold for accepting the energy of death.

-The statue has begun to emit the energy of death.

: When the statue opens its eyes fully, it will become impossible for you to destroy the statue.

You are now in the land where the energy of death overflows.

– You are not part of the undead clan.

– Your health decreases by 1 per second.

– Your combat power is reduced by 10%.
