Chapter 24 - 24 – Analyzing World Record Run

Chapter 24: Chapter 24 – Analyzing World Record Run

"Huff... It's finally over."

Max breathed heavily as he looked at the notification in front of him.

[Knight's Retirement mission completed.]

After throwing weapons for more than 20 minutes, Hutch finally arrived with the army from behind. When he was out of weapons earlier, the knights unexpectedly gathered the scattered weapons for him, making the chat speechless for a few seconds.

Not only that, but the knights also protected him and let him throw weapons in peace under Huh Ah knight's order. The commander was holding his arse because it was still hurt from Max's kick earlier. He also flashed a confident smile at him.

In the end, he defeated most barbarians and killed 164 barbarians by himself, according to the chat.

As a result...

[Mission completed.]

[16,400 diamonds have been donated!]

Max gained more than 15K diamonds at once.

— Nooooo!!!!

— Hahaha! That scream sounds beautiful!

— Tsk, only 164. Breeze should be able to get 200 kills if those knights don't interfere!

— Right!

— Still... Isn't he finishing the quest too fast?

— Right...

Indeed.

The main battle usually lasted for three hours before Hutch finally flanked from behind. Some good players who managed to get Hutch's acknowledgment managed to make it faster to two hours, but there had never been a time when the battle lasted under an hour like this.

But Max achieved it. Exhausted, he slumped on the ground and laughed.

With that, Max ended the stream.

[Stream Ended]

This time, he didn't immediately go out of his capsule but entered his Lobby instead. From what he had experienced before, staying in the Lobby wouldn't take much toll from his brain or body as long as he didn't move around too much.

Max sat on the chair in the middle of the grass plain. His lustrous black hair was brushed against the breeze, and a smile decorated his face as he opened Knight's Journey community forum.

The articles about him were posted. The newest one was about a compilation of his clips and the strange things he did in the game. Unexpectedly, the one who posted it was FreakingNoob, someone who created the first thread about him.

"He helps me a lot. I am glad he's staying even though he loves laughing at newbies."

Anyway, Max was happy he still got a lot of attention. In fact, he noticed that he had broken 500 viewers when he finished [Knight's Retirement] mission. His channel's followers had also grown to 114/500.

"This growth isn't normal, isn't it?"

There was no need to research the other newbie streamers to understand that he was doing too well for someone who only started streaming yesterday.

Even when the human population had passed 10 billion, and people watched streamers more than in Max's past life, this kind of growth was still impressive.

'Is this because of the system that I am doing pretty well? I still can't believe this is all due to my luck.'

Until now, the offer Max received from Biozone Entertainment still didn't feel real. But that was, without a doubt, not a dream, and he needed to work hard to get that bonus.

'With my current progress, I might finish the game in two days. The route I got skipped some missions due to me doing pretty well. What's left is the journey of the main character and meeting the heroine. I wonder which one I will get on this route. Or will this be the true ending without any heroine?'

Nothing was known, as Max was a pioneer of this new route. So, he only guessed based on the other routes that people in the forum already found.

'Anyway, let's focus.'

Max didn't visit the forum just to see his viewers' reactions to his previous streams. Indeed, it was satisfying, but he also planned to find a video of this duo fortress speedrun that became the main event in the program in a week.

Fortunately, such videos could be found easily. What Max chose was the world record run. But when he saw the name of who had gotten the run, he couldn't help but stop for a while.

"StoneSword... The chat also mentioned him earlier. So he's the current world record holder for the duo run? His partner is... LilyPixel? Is she a streamer? I don't recognize her name."

Not recognizing a streamer's name was normal. Not everyone knew each other, and more than a hundred thousand streamers in Punch alone were trying to go by.

But whoever this LilyPixel was, she must've had an impressive skill to be able to get a world record with StoneSword.

"Let's watch the run for now. I will note down anything that I can use for the program."

And with that, Max began analyzing the run and even forgot the time.
