Overgeared

『 The first legendary class! The first person to become a duke! The holder with the most medals in the National Competition! The master of the Overgeared Guild! The name of this brilliant person is Grid!! What’s the secret behind his level up that shot up forward 33 positions in the rankings? Are you curious? Do you want to know? Yes! I’ll tell you everything! In a while, Grid’s hunting video will be revealed on OGC Station! A live broadcast! You can watch it on TV, the Internet, or on the radio! Please use the OGC channel!! 』

OGC put a lot into this broadcast. They invested all their capital into advertising because they were certain it would be an unconditional success. As a result, OGC’s ads were repeatedly played in dozens of countries on the Internet, TV, newspapers, and magazines.

It was an excellent choice. The spread of the s to the whole world was enormous. OGC’s Internet channel became congested with users and OGC quickly secured more advertising funds than they invested. OGC had a festive atmosphere.

"This is completely the best...! It’s way more than we expected!”

“It has no choice but to succeed. We have secured a number of viewers that is comparable to the National Competition.”

"One billion views will look funny in a few days.”

"Bunny Bunny’s private station has also gathered millions of people.”

“This is Grid’s influence! He really is God Grid!”

“Everyone is wondering where Grid is hunting and how he’s raising his level so quickly.”

“They dream of becoming a ranker by obtaining the secrets to levelling.”

“Okay! Let’s do our best for a perfect broadcast! This is an opportunity for OGC to secure the world!”

After a while. The live broadcast of Grid’s hunting began. The number of viewers continued to rise, while the number of users logged into Satisfy decreased. It was almost similar to the time of the National Competition.

This was Lauel’s intention.

Reidan’s army had Jude at its head. Their marching speed was very fast. They crossed the hot desert as if they were running. The soldiers felt like they were going to die. The hot sun shone down on them and the desert was sizzling. Armed with heavy armor and weapons, they didn’t rest and marched as if they were running.

It was hell. They couldn’t deal with the hardships. The field work under Piaro and Asmophel’s mental education wasn’t as hard as this.

“Pant... Pant! Th... Thirsty! Give me a break to drink water, please."

“Pant pant! Aren’t we going to die?”

“Hah... I see my dog that died last year in that haze over there... She’s calling me over...”

"Seeing an illusion of a dog, not a woman... This guy has never experienced love...”

The limit. The soldiers were covered in sweat and on the verge of collapsing. There were some who wanted to kill somebody, some who wanted to go home, and most of them had tears in their eyes.

‘An army that can’t maintain its rank has lost its role as an army.’

‘They still have stamina but morale has dropped to the worst.’

‘Unbelievable... In this state, there will be those who run away. The army will collapse before they even fight.’
