The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2

Chapter 621:

Chapter 621:

'As expected, there aren't multiple server management devices on a single server.'

No matter the rollback, such an important item wouldn't be mass-produced.

As Seong Jihan was thinking about the missing teeth, Id continued,

[...I don't remember at all, but it seems she subdued me and turned back time. That's why I don't recall my teeth being pulled out.]

Id believed Urd was the culprit who took his teeth.

"But why are the missing teeth so important?"

[Well... I need my teeth to complete your transformation into a light clan member. And for me to fulfill my duties as the White Administrator.]

Id seemed unable to mention the server management device, so he dodged the question.

"Is that so? They must have been quite valuable teeth. But you think Urd took them?"

"Hmm. If Urd did it, wouldn't she have killed you? Why don't you try to look at the situation more calmly?"

[Uh. Hmm... You're right. Indeed, she would have no reason to keep me alive...]

At Seong Jihan's words, Id gradually began to regain his composure.

[...Right. There could have been a malfunction, so I'll search for them again on my end. However, until I find them, there will be a setback in the process of making you a light clan member.]

What nonsense about making him a light clan member.

Wasn't the original plan to send him to Ark and use him as a slave for Id's main body?

'Considering that, he's someone I should get rid of, but...'

For now, he was drawing all of Urd's attention in Seong Jihan's place.

It might be better to let him keep running away.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan decided to ask about White Light while he had Id on the line.

"Anyway, I can't become a light clan member yet due to insufficient White Light. How can I obtain it faster? The current accumulation rate is too slow."

[White Light? Hmm... How was your trait implemented? Was it activating the Tower of Martial Gods icon in BattleTube?]

"Ah, that's changed now. The Tower content is clearly implemented."

[That's quite a useless ability...]

This side thought the same until Dongbang Sak came to his senses.

Still, compared to Id, who supposedly had the authority of protection, or Urd, who could reverse time, it was indeed an ambiguous ability.

What good would clearly implementing content do here?

[Nevertheless, you shouldn't allocate points to other traits. You must focus only on Tower content to obtain White Light.]

"Then how long will it take to build up my abilities? Isn't there a faster way to get it?"

[Hmm... Well, if more Tower-related videos are uploaded to BattleTube, the growth rate of White Light should increase.]

"From BattleTube?"

Somehow, this stat seemed closely related to BattleTube.

Didn't he gain more White Light when the Tower of Martial Gods had higher attention?

Now, if there were more videos related to the 'Tower' Seong Jihan operated, he could obtain more White Light from there...

"What's the connection between BattleTube and White Light?"

[Hehe. You'll find out when you become a light clan member.]

Seong Jihan frowned at those words.

This guy always said 'when you become a light clan member' for everything.

'But haven't I already become one?'

Didn't Id's main body in Ark say he was already a light clan member?

Yet for being a clan member, he didn't know anything.

Meanwhile, as Id was talking about BattleTube with Seong Jihan,

[Come to think of it... The ownership of BattleTube hasn't passed to Urd. It seems she definitely didn't take my teeth.]

He seemed much more relieved after confirming the ownership there.

"What's the connection between your teeth and BattleTube ownership?"

[Well... There's a deep connection. I can't tell you, though.]

"Why? Because I'm not a light clan member?"

[Hehe. You catch on quick...]

This guy, as expected.

He went on about 'light clan members' when he didn't want to answer.

[Hmm. It doesn't seem Urd took them, so I'll search for my teeth again...]

Realizing through the conversation with Seong Jihan that Urd wasn't the one who took his teeth,

He ended the communication, saying he'd look for them again.

'Well, he'll keep drawing Urd's aggro for a while.'

In that case, he should raise my White Light back to 200 in the meantime.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan turned on BattleTube, following Id's advice.

Then,

Ziiing...

Unlike before, the BattleTube screen didn't appear immediately.

Instead,

Flash...!

A sphere of pure white light appeared before Seong Jihan's eyes.

Then,

[BattleTube provides emergency support for the isolate.]

With this message, the sphere was absorbed into his body.

[Stat 'White Light' increases by 10.]

His ability score increased so easily, by 10 points.

* * *

'What is this?'

That Id guy said he'd know when he became a light clan member.

He didn't expect to gain White Light just by accessing BattleTube like this.

'Some people worked hard to gather stats one by one. But light clan members were given ability points just for logging in?'

In fact, Seong Jihan's recent route for obtaining White Light through Tower operation wasn't that difficult either.

Still, getting 10 ability points just for accessing BattleTube seemed too easy.

'I wonder if it gives points every time I log out and back in.'

He tried logging out and back in to BattleTube just in case.

But the emergency support message didn't appear again.

'Looks like it doesn't give points every time.'

Seong Jihan swallowed his disappointment after trying to reconnect a few times with no increase in ability points.

'By the way, "isolate"... Is that how they refer to light clan members?'

According to Id,

Ark was a facility for isolating the "lazy ones".

Even if they called themselves light clan members among themselves,

The official term was, after all, "isolate".

'But if isolates with only one trait manifested are this strong... How powerful are the normal ones who aren't like that?'

As Seong Jihan was pondering about these "normal" people who could have multiple traits,

[You could do it too, couldn't you?]

The Red Administrator spoke up from within the Blue and Red.

'Me?'

[Yes. You can expand your authority, can't you?]

'I could, indeed.'

Certainly, when White Light reached 100 and 200 respectively,

-You can expand your light authority one more level.

The opportunity to expand his authority had come.

He had intentionally ignored this message to become a light clan member, but...

'But if I expand my authority now, won't I be unable to operate in Ark?'

Clearly, only light clan members can operate in Ark.

If he allocated more traits, wouldn't he fail to be a "lazy one"?

Then, there'd be no point in increasing his light authority further.

However,

[When I dwelled in Hephaestus in Ark, I figured out the meaning of Urd's collection.]

'The meaning of the collection?'

The Red Administrator said something unexpected.

[Yes. The tree Yggdrasil in the western sector provides infinite vitality. I in the south become an energy source solely for Urd in Ark. And the Infinite Sword in the north becomes Urd's means of force in Ark...]

So there was a Yggdrasil in the west.

It seems all the collections have their roles.

Then,

"The collection positioned in the east must have an assigned role too."

[Right. The eastern collection's job is to break free from Ark's control. However, Urd hasn't found an authority capable of this so far... despite opening and closing numerous servers.]

"But are you saying the Blue stat makes this possible?"

[That's why Urd shows so much interest in your ability, isn't it?]

The Blue stat was indeed a special ability, but was it really capable of breaking free from Ark's control?

Seong Jihan had such doubts, but...

'Well, I should research it a bit.'

After all, the current trait of clearly implementing Tower content, apart from reviving Dongbang Sak, didn't have much use.

Gaining a new light authority seemed to have considerable merit.

'For that, I'll need to raise my stats anyway.'

Both operating the server management device, and trying to conceal it with Blue after gaining new light authority, all of these required White Light to grow.

'To gain more White Light, many Tower-related videos need to be uploaded, he said...'

Seong Jihan searched for "Tower" on BattleTube.

Countless Tower strategy videos appeared.

After Tower was officially incorporated as a game on BattleNet, the number of videos covering it had already piled up enormously.

However,

'There are already so many, but we need even more?'

It was going to be tough to gain stats.

Thinking this, Seong Jihan browsed his own channel.

There, he found,

-Tower is good, but... when will the Tower of Martial Gods open?

-I want to get the Red stat...

-We were so close, and suddenly Tower appears and everything stops;

-Close? I passed the cutoff but still didn't get the stat ??

-Is it really over now? Is there no way to get the Red stat???

Many viewers had left comments asking for the Tower of Martial Gods to be reopened.

They seemed desperate because they were close to getting the Red stat but couldn't.

'But I can't just reopen the Tower of Martial Gods.'

The Tower of Martial Gods, which was the final mission of the game type 'Tower',

And where the server management device was stored.

He couldn't open it to the public like before.

Instead,

'Hey, Red stat. It's not a big deal to distribute it freely like before, right?'

[It's fine. Hell has been upgraded, so we can distribute even more than before.]

'You upgraded Hell? When?'

[I experienced a complete Hell inside the main body. You think I'd just leave it at that? I immediately applied it here.]

He applied things so quickly.

Still,

'If we distribute more than before, won't just anyone get the Red stat? That doesn't seem right. Let's just give out the same amount as before.'

[What does it matter? This world is ultimately a simulation in Ark. It doesn't matter if my ability is spread out, does it?]

The Red Administrator, perhaps having realized something after seeing Ark's existence, suggested that it wouldn't matter if his ability was distributed more.

'Still, it matters to me. Even if it started as their simulation, I'm going to normalize it.'

[Normalize Server 4212...? How? Won't a created world disappear if they decide to abolish it?]

'I'll have to find a way during the next invasion.'

[...In the end, you have no plan, do you?]

'Well, that's true for now.'

Seong Jihan ended the conversation there and came down from the Tower of Martial Gods to Tower, then activated BattleTube.

"Everyone, it's been a while."

As he greeted, viewers rushed in instantly,

-Oh... Is this...

-The Tower of Martial Gods?!

-Finally reopening???

-No... It just looks like Tower;

As debate broke out over whether it was the Tower of Martial Gods or Tower based on the background shown on screen,

Swish...

Above the chaotic chat window, purple letters appeared.

['Black Administrator' is accessing your channel.]

The constant administrator.

A message saying the Black Administrator had logged in appeared alone.
