On the other hand, Ian was having a very strange experience entering the dimensional gate created by Iriel.

A new kind of system message was emerged that had never been seen before.

[You have entered the Temporary Open Zone, District 127.]

[For easy new Regional Testing play, temporary bonus to 99 'Horsepower’ stats.]

[From now on, 99% of the damage taken by all enemies in the Magic System will be absorbed.]

Ian narrowed his eyes.

‘What... is this? ’

Ian's head begins to spin rapidly.

‘Temporary Open Zone... plus testing? Something smells like honey. ’

So far, Kailan has been the only virtual-reality game that has found no bugs or system flaws in the use of numerous users.

However, other virtual reality games aside from Kailan found bugs or system errors, and Ian was a user who played many of them.

Was this a less open area? ’

Ian began to deduce one by one.

‘I think granting you an anti-horsepower for testing means you have significantly lowered the difficulty of the map for game QA…. ’

(QA stands for Quality Assurance, which is the task of testing and screening various things prior to the launch of the product to ensure the game has a certain level of quality)

Ian smiles as he looks at the new Horsepower stat in the Character Information Window.

This stat was clearly as powerful as it was within this margin, although it could be found elsewhere.

Ian also examined the stats of Kazar and the Tributes and Summoners.

And when I saw the words' Anti Magic Power +99 ’on all the information windows, I rolled my mouth up.

‘Will this allow us to reign in the throne for at least half a day? ’

The situation was definitely not normal to play.

Ian was clearly aware of it.

‘Khh, Kylan thought it was a really freaky game, but I didn't think he'd show you this loophole. ’

But Ian had no intention of getting out of here quietly.

On the contrary, I was going to destroy everything.

"99% less damage. Buff will kill the Demon King, right?" ’

If anyone saw it, they could blame it as a cheating player, but it didn't matter.

No matter how unfair, if the beneficiary becomes himself, everyone has to be God.

Ian starts walking, murmuring his nostrils.

A grim and bizarre map was creating a very frightening atmosphere, but it did not come into view.

‘Please let this anti-magic stat work properly...' ’

After a while, Ian was able to find the first monster in the Magic Cube.

[Rakum - Lv 205/Lesser Magic]

A giant dark-red rat shaped horse-drawer named Rakum, 205 levels up!

Ian looks around and cautiously fights the monsters.

‘If the anti-horsepower doesn't work, you have to do everything in your power to catch it. ’

As Ian's group approaches, Rakum rushes towards Ian, his eyes wide open, and Ian deliberately exposes one arm to Rakum's attack.

Kwang-!

Rakum bit Ian's arm like he was waiting....

[Under attack by lesser magic 'Rakum’.]

[It absorbs 9405 damage from powerful horsepower.]

[HP reduced by 95.]

Ian, who saw a system message that was blooming, clenched his two fists.

“Aja!”

And Kaisar, who was fighting Rakum, tilted his head and called Ian.

“My lord.”

“Why, Goshen. ”

Ian smiles and answers.

Caesar expressions that he doesn't understand English.

“Are you sure this is the place? The horses I know are not this weak. ”

Ian smiled and replied.

“Kazin, do you know what anti-horsepower is? ”

Kaisar nods slowly.

“Yes. I know about anti-magic. I know that every time someone takes more than a certain amount of damage from Margaery, it is called anti-magic. ”

Ian quickly shakes his spear and defeats Rakum, then slowly opens his mouth.

“That's 99 points for us now. ”

Kaisar looks surprised and asks again.

“…? Why? ”

Ian blew up the photon shop.

“Kuhahaha, how do I know that! Let's wipe this place out and think! ”

* * *

In the basement of LB's headquarters, there was a huge monitoring room occupying a vast level.

Kailan was a huge game, with over 500 people monitoring, and hundreds of computers were stacked in the monitoring room.

But even with over a hundred people in it, the monitoring room was always quiet because there was nothing to talk about due to the nature of the work.

But somehow, today was a very cluttered atmosphere.

And the source of the loud noise was the testing zone monitoring part in the corner of the monitoring room.

“Wow, I never thought there'd be a lunatic who actually broke through to the Matchmaking Quest at this time. ”

The part leader stares at the large screen against the wall with his hands on his forehead with a ridiculous look.

Nearby, dozens of people were staring at the screen together with their faces agitated.

“What should I do, Chief Partha? Shouldn't we call the server team and force them to shut down? Or even that user should be forced out.... ”

A direct report replied nervously with his eyes wide open.

“Ha, Joo-im Park. Would I be doing this right now if I could? Kailan is a virtual reality game, a virtual reality game! If you force a user out of that situation, it could damage their body. Of course, it's not very risky, but if you were to get hurt in any way by this, how much would it hurt the company? ”

Looking at the part where words pour out like quicksand, the woman called Park Juim bowed her head.

She worked for him for over a year, but I've never seen him this nervous before, who was always so gentle.

The part leader stared at the figure on the screen without saying anything and continued to sweat.

‘How the hell did that user already get a quest about horsepower? ’

Knowing that the user was this close to new content was, in some ways, the responsibility of the monitoring team in all departments.

And because he was the one who had to take all the responsibility, he was so worried.

He picked up the smartphone in his pocket and called somewhere.

“Ah, Team Leader! Can I talk to you for a minute? ”

Then you hear the voice of a man with a knife over the phone.

[Are you the head of the monitoring team?]

“Yes, it is. ”

You called me about the break-in, right?]

The part leader flinches for a moment.

It was because I didn't know it had already spread throughout the company.

Soon, he sighed and replied.

“Phew, yeah. We've already talked to the Content Management Team. That's right, that's why I called. ”

The reason the part manager called the content management team was not different.

It was because I wanted to know what the damned troublemaker could gain by sweeping the palace.

I needed to know that so I could discuss my options with the planning team.

He continued to keep an eye on the screen, explaining to his smartphone the route he was going on and what was going on in the horse system, and a moment later he heard the manager's answer.

[Well, the most fortunate part is that the monsters present in the horse system do not reward XP. This means that no matter how many users hunt, they can't experience it.]

The words brightened the part's face slightly.

“Oh really? ”

But at the same time, he asked a question.

“Then why is that user holding monsters like that? ”

A moment of static.

Soon, there was a serious voice over the smartphone.

[It's... probably because of the horseshoe.]

* * *

[You defeated Lesser Magic ‘Rakum’.]

[Gain 0 XP.]

[Gain 0 Reputation.]

[You obtained the item ‘Lesser Stable Stone’.]

Ian reads the system message, shouting with a fierce fist.

“There's another one! ”

Ian looks proud after seeing the stone that entered his inventory.

This‘ stallion ’was just as glamorous as it would make you do infinite nogada on a horse system that didn't give you any experience.

---------------------------------------

- Minor Stable Stone -

Classification - General Goods

---------------------------------------

This is the first enhanced content to appear in Kailan.

There was a reason Ian turned on the lights and swept away the horses even though he could not get the EXP and prestige at all.

Ian picked up a stone tablet and whispered to himself, using it for the "Judgment of the Spirit King" item.

‘Please... let's do it, please! I've already applied 15 of them, but this time it will work! ’

When we use the Horseman's Stone, Ian's spear flashes into the air, "The Judgment of the Spirit King."

Ian blindfolds his eyes with both hands and peeks at the reinforcement scene to peer between his fingers.

After a while, the message that Ian wanted rang out.

Whoo-hoo!

[You've successfully enhanced the 'The Spirit King's Judgment’ item!]

[The "Judgment of the Spirit King" item has been enhanced from the +2 River to the +3 River.]
