Overgeared - Chapter 445

Chapter 445

Randy's original Copy skill .  He could copy 30% of his master's stats and two random skills .  But now things were different .  Randy evolved the moment he reached level 240, being able to copy 35% of the master's stats and three skills! It didn't matter if the skills were only level 1 .

'Won't he be able to copy me perfectly someday?'

Grid appreciated the possibilities of Randy's development .  It wasn't a baseless overestimation .  Grid later found out that ordinary doppelgangers couldn't copy legendary skills .  In other words, Randy was different from ordinary doppelgangers the first time he copied Pagma's appearance .

"Pagma's Swordsmanship . "

A pet was classified as a monster .  The effect of the Efficient Hunting Sword inflicted additional damage on monsters, so Grid armed himself with it before calling Randy .  Thanks to that, Randy was running wild .

"Link . "

Pit!

Pipipipipit!

"Kyaak!"

"Kuwek!"

Randy copied Grid's appearance .  With the Efficient Hunting Sword (Copy) in his hand, he slaughtered dozens of pets .  The pets were much weaker than wyverns and couldn't stand up to Randy .

"Kuwaaaah~!"

A big monster, the two-headed hippopotamus, didn't lose its momentum and tied up Randy's feet .  It withstood Randy's attack with its very thick skin and then threw him back using its 3 . 5 ton weight .

Kuuong!

"Uh . . . !"

Blood emerged from Randy's mouth .  Despite the fact that he was wearing Triple Layers (Copy), his health was reduced by a quarter and his face distorted from the pain .

'I'm sorry . '

Grid knew Randy's heartbreaking story .  He sincerely sympathized with Randy . He wanted Randy to be happy, unlike the past .  But how could things in the world be easy? Grid always faced a major crisis and every time it happened, Randy experienced pain . In particular, ever since Randy learned the swapping locations skill, the number of times he was used as a bullet had increased .

Grid felt sorry .  However, there was no guilt .  Why?

'Happiness is victory!'

Randy had to be strong in order to fight and win .  That's right .  Grid wanted Randy to become stronger and obtain happiness with his own strength . In fact, Randy was a pet, so being strong was an important factor .

'I will keep pushing you . '

Did Randy happen to feel Grid's scary heart? Randy felt a chill as he avoided the second round of attacks from the two-headed hippo and used Revolve .  A counterattack triggered at the perfect timing .  The master of the two-headed hippo, the American Belatra was shocked .

"Piercing my Jeep's leather with a blow . . . !"

The two-headed hippo had one of the top three defensive power among the big monsters .  They were classified as tank-type pets and Jeep was over level 210 .  It was the pet that Beletra focused on the most after the wyvern .  The food was top quality and Beletra really raised Jeep with a lot of pampering .  Yet Jeep lost one-third of its health despite the hard work and love poured into it .

"What the hell is this doppelganger . . . ?"

As Beletra was in shock, Randy discovered that the weakness was its long body and short legs and linked attacks .  It was difficult and slow to cope with the attack because Randy had moved to a place where the two-headed hippo couldn't easily see .

"Kuwaaang!"

The two-headed hippo started to cry and the commentators spoke words of admiration towards Randy .

『 A pet using a counterattack . . . ! It's clear that Grid's doppelganger must be equipped with the same level of artificial intelligence as an NPC! 』

『 It's certain . Grid isn't just overgeared, his pets are over . . . No, they are really amazing . . 』

『 It's truly a top presence! 』

In the last National Competition, Grid won three gold medals alone and made South Korea ranked second .  This was a tremendous feat and most people predicted that Grid couldn't do it again .  But at this moment! Grid was going to break his record! 

The little demon wings spread open as the chubby legs and tails moved .  The commentators guessed that Noe was flying at a speed faster than any monster in the pet marathon and would catch up with the wyverns .

『 Don't tell me . . . Grid might really become a myth? 』

Everyone believed it was impossible .  But now it didn't seem impossible .  Grid was likely to win a gold medal in this pet marathon, and if so, Grid would've won four gold medals alone .  South Korea's current third place ranking would rise to the top, making Grid the unprecedented person who made a country number one through individual effort .

This was a solid record worthy of praise .

『 Um . . . Maybe Grid can even win gold in PvP? 』

『 Haha . . . Then Korea's 1st rank will be confirmed? 』

『 Haha, it's impossible . Isn't Kraugel participating in PvP? 』

『 Indeed, even Grid can't beat the sky above the sky . 』

The commentators laughed while Randy and the pets continued fighting .

"Shit! We're using up all our power!"

Despite the fact that they had formed an alliance, the other players were unable to defeat Randy . They became nervous and summoned new pets in order to attack Randy .  Randy's momentum shrunk after he consumed skills and stamina to defeat the two-headed hippo .

The monster tamers tamed monsters that were usually difficult to hunt . Randy was Grid's pet and had a high level, but he couldn't face all of them .

Chaaeng! Chaeng!

Randy was pushed to the defensive and couldn't attack .  The crowd and viewers booed as Randy gradually slowed from the wounds on his body .

"All players were working together!! Why isn't the referee stopping this?"

"It's really too much . No matter how great Grid is, 52 people concentrating on him . . . "

"Grid and the Overgeared members fought fairly when they met each other in the competition . What about these bastards? Don't they have a conscience?"

"Wow, Grid and the Overgeared members are trying their best for the purpose of the National Competition . They are a guild with a very high level of awareness . "

"They are different from the Seven Guilds . "

"Hey, you bastards! Do it properly! This isn't a pet marathon but a Grid raid!"

The anger of the crowd and public opinion on the Internet became the worst .  The referee couldn't overlook it anymore and was about to restrain the 52 players .

"It doesn't mean anything now . "

Grid muttered while the whole world was in turmoil .  The commentators were talking like madmen .

『 Noe has caught up to the wyverns! 』

『 This is despite departing five minutes late . . . ! Indeed, a memphis is the best demonic beast of hell! 』

『 The players made a mistake . They summoned several pets because they were obsessed with Randy . Due to this, they couldn't control the wyverns in the distance and the wyverns became confused . 』

『 Noe didn't miss this chance! 』

『 Ah! Noe just devoured the souls of the wyverns! Wow! Look at that acceleration! It's faster than earlier!! 』

There was no need to argue anymore .  Grid won the pet marathon .  Grid overwhelmed 52 pet specialists with just two pets .  Grid's pets were just incredible .

2nd . United States (4 gold, 4 silver, 5 bronze)

" . . . "

Kraugel was thrilled when he checked the rankings after the pet marathon . It was surprising that Grid alone could sweep up the blacksmith game and pet marathon, where the US had been expected to win gold medals .

'Grid, you are certainly great . '

How many people could prove they were the best in several fields? In that sense, Grid was special .  He was unique in many ways, including his combat abilities, blacksmithing skills, ability to use items, and his pets .  

Kraugel felt a lot of respect .  It was the fourth time that Kraugel had such feelings towards another player .  But he couldn't get lost in his appreciation .  Kraugel had to be composed .  He was now in the position to make Russia first and obtain the medicine for his mother . To do that, he had to win the gold medal in PvP . Even if he respected Grid, he couldn't show this when they met in PvP .

" . . . I must win this time . "

There were only two events left in the National Competition .  The individual 'carriage transporting' event and PvP .  There were no more events where the US could aim for a gold medal . On the other hand, South Korea and Russia were in a position to win a gold medal in PvP, making it likely that one of them would be ranked first in the overall rankings .

"Sigh . "

Kraugel let out a deep breath and started to examine everything Grid showed in this National Competition . In a survey, 92 . 3% of respondents predicted that it would be Kraugel's overwhelming victory in the PvP that was three days away .
