The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 312

Three games are about to begin, just a moment ago.

"And... wouldn't it be better to lose all three games?"

Coach Davis gathered the players and brought up the topic of this game.

"C-Coach..."

"They promised to execute Sung JiHan. There must be some trick in the 5th game map. It's a 50% chance, it could happen anytime. We can't leave the fate of humanity to a coin toss."

"But then we'll end up losing..."

"Yes. But no one will die from losing. Especially Sung JiHan will survive."

For humanity, Sung JiHan now held more than 50% of the power.

In addition to playing a crucial role as a key player in the Space League.

Since he also earned points for humanity on a regular basis, it held a significant weight.

"A 50% chance, it's unsettling."

"Sung JiHan might be able to overcome the elves' tricks..."

"Yes. Didn't he also solve the brainwashing of the Seat of the First King?"

Even if they were unlucky enough to go up to the 5th game, the national team players believed that Sung JiHan would be able to handle it.

"Do we really need to take the risk?"

"If Sung JiHan were to be executed, it would be a terrible ending for humanity."

"I agree with the coach's policy. Do you remember the game against the Join Tribe? We lost to the 20th ranked race without Sung JiHan. It's better to just lose one game."

Still, in order to avoid any possibility, the players generally agreed with the coach's opinion.

"What about Sung JiHan... are you okay?"

And Coach Davis asked for the opinion of the person in question.

He devised this strategy to save Sung JiHan.

But if Sung JiHan wanted to go out, they couldn't stop him, so his attitude was cautious.

Sung JiHan listened quietly and asked him a question.

"How do you plan to lose?"

"I've already trained the second-string players. I will use a poisoned dagger to commit suicide."

"Ah..."

The national team players looked at Coach Davis in admiration.

Indeed, he wasn't just anyone as the coach of the national team.

When did he even prepare for something like this?

"Suicide..."

"Is there something bothering you?"

When Sung JiHan's words trailed off, Coach Davis watched him with anxious eyes.

"No. Let's do it that way."

Sung JiHan nodded soon and expressed his consent.

Actually, he wondered if it would be better to let the World Tree Elves commit suicide so obediently.

'On the contrary, it might be better for me to fail in my position. If I start losing here, it will be difficult for humanity to accumulate enough points to be promoted from the Bronze League.'

Sung JiHan thought it would be okay even if the plan failed.

Anyway, no matter what kind of scheme they concocted in the 5th game, he was confident enough to break through it.

And...

"Yes, understood!"

Coach Davis's face brightened at Sung JiHan's answer.

It seemed like the final decision was made with the permission of Sung JiHan, who was like a player under the coach.

The coaching staff and the players who were watching thought it was only natural.

"Whether it's the Korean national team or the humanity national team, Sung JiHan's influence is absolute."

"He's a player above the coach, after all."

And so, the three games began as planned.

At first, it seemed like the game was flowing according to Coach Davis's intentions.

Flash! Flash!

In this game, the majority of the 50 players who participated have started logging out.

- Wait... what is this?

- Why is Sung JiHan not appearing and committing suicide?

- Did the coach throw the game?

- Ah! It seems like he's saying he won't separate from the 5th game; if he's unlucky, Sung JiHan might be executed there.

- I see... it's better to lose than for Sung JiHan to die.

- But it's too frustrating to keep losing like this every time we face the World Tree Elf...

- Before that, we need to strengthen ourselves and win in situations like the 1st and 2nd games.

At first, the viewers were confused by the suicide of the representative team of humanity, but they quickly understood the situation and supported it.

"Oh... you're going to commit suicide?"

One elf, who flew like an arrow towards the surviving warrior in the human camp, urgently approached.

"We can't just let you go like that."

Then, he opened his inventory and took out a leaf, giving it to the surviving human warrior.

"Ugh..."

As a result, the poison quickly healed the human warrior.

Seeing that, the elf smiled brightly.

"Suicide, we'll do it."

He stabbed his own throat with the sword he was holding.

Thunk!

As a result, the sword pierced through the elf.

Shoooo...

The entire body of the elf split apart, but even so, it turned into dust and disappeared.

-Wow, what's with the speed of the elf?

-The map was too small... they were caught suiciding too quickly ㅠ

-But it's creepy how they immediately realize it and kill themselves on their side ㅋㅋㅋ

-Look at them eating leaves and dying ㅡㅡ

And thus began the parade of elf suicides, led by him.

Thunk! Thunk!

The elves who were rushing towards the human camp stopped their advance when the leading elf committed suicide.

They took out their swords and stabbed themselves.

-What on earth is this spectacle?!

-Can there be such a bizarre game? In 3 games, all players from both sides commit suicide...!

-Only one person survives. The player, Eungwooyeon!

-Humans win in 3 games!

-This means he automatically becomes the MVP of the 3 games... but the player himself is hanging his head in shame.

-There was no other choice! The elves died too quickly!

Thanks to the elves committing suicide in an instant, humanity won in the blink of an eye in the 3 games.

Coach Davis twisted his face when he saw the result.

"Crazy elf bastards...!"

What did they prepare for the 5th game that made them commit suicide so calmly?

And also.

"Why didn't the insane regeneration power of the elves work this time?!"

"I saw earlier that they only committed suicide with the sword. Could that be related?"

"It seems like it. The mages also took out small swords from their inventories and stabbed themselves in the throat..."

"Hoo, it's really nerve-wracking!"

Director Davis let out a deep sigh.

Even if it meant losing through suicide, he had tried to save the Sung JiHan, the greatest power of humanity.

Looking at the results of the first three games, it seemed like they would lose even in the fourth game.

"In the fourth game, instead of the elves... Can't we commit suicide faster?"

"...I will try my best."

Let's just die quickly somehow.

With that thought in mind, the representative team of humanity selected players with the lowest stamina, mainly from the magician line, and sent them out for the fourth game.

=The fourth game begins!

=This map is a dungeon map! 'Seven Caves'. This map...

Before the start of the fourth game, the commentators were about to explain the map.

"The opposing race, 'World Tree Elves 200', has been annihilated."

"The race 'Humanity' has won the fourth game."

"The fourth game is over."

Watching the game that ended in an instant, I was momentarily speechless.

=The fourth game... It didn't even take a minute!

=...Among the games I've commented on, I've never seen a game end as quickly as this one.

=I thought the third game was epic, but the fourth game surpasses it.

A super-fast Space League match that didn't even take 10 minutes combined for the third and fourth games.

"Crazy, today is really crazy lolololololol. Seeing them commit suicide against each other in the Space League."

"Oh no, I ordered chicken but it's over before it arrives?"

"There are still five games left. That's the main dish."

"Ugh, nothing special will happen in the fifth game, right?"

"The elves probably set a trap, but Sung JiHan will solve it..."

The fifth game, which they were determined to go through without committing suicide, was approaching.

* * *

The director's office of the Space League.

For the ban-pick of the fifth game, both team directors were summoned there.

"Hehe. Director, you've put some thought into it. We almost won, didn't we?"

Elf Dae SinGwan smiled and looked at Davis.

"It's not like there weren't races that used this strategy. During the league, around the second half, the races gave up on the game because they didn't want to be executed by our World Tree Elves."

"...It wasn't just us."

"That's right. As the league progresses, everyone knows the theme. Instead of going through all five games and being executed, let's just lose quickly. And for races that know that theme... we show mercy. We end the game in three games. However..."

Smirking.

Elf Dae SinGwan smiled even more.

"But humanity. You are different. You executed the elves, even sacrificing the great High Elf... The entire World Tree Elf Union will wither the sprout of humanity."

"Hah. The reality is that you guys were the ones trying to execute us and ended up being executed instead! High Elf? That guy came at us first!"

Director Davis raised his voice to refute Elf Dae SinGwan's words, but...

The smile on the elf's face deepened.

"Hehe... The weak ones who don't know the theme. That's the biggest sin. Today, let's start by killing the number one in the rankings."

Saying that, the elf took out the collected select cards.

Director Davis also quickly took out his select cards.

And then...

"The representatives of both races have collected all the select cards."

"The map selection right will be randomly assigned to one of the two races."

Ziiiiing...

A huge silver coin fell from the empty air on the table.

Thump. Thump.

When it collided with the table, the coin bounced off and spun around.

On one side of it, there was a drawing of a human, and on the other side, there was a drawing of a tree.

"Wait, is this for a coin toss?"

"The tree is an elf and the human is us..."

"After a suicide show, now we're doing a coin toss... ugh."

"Oh, please, let the human come out!"

The viewers all wished for the human to appear from the coin.

Thud.

On the top side of the coin that settled on the table was...

"Hehe, just as I thought."

It was a tree.

Flash!

When the tree appeared, the select card that was in front of humanity disappeared, and the elf's card remained on the table.

"Ugh...!"

"Well, then, why don't you say goodbye to your number one ranking? They say humanity will soon catch up."

The director Sung JiHan chuckled and toyed with the select card.

Director Davis sat down in his seat with a desolate expression.

The two directors, with their contrasting shadows.

The commentators sighed as they watched.

"Oh... Lady Luck is turning her back on Director Davis this time!"

"The World Tree Elf... They seem to have a kinship ceremony with elves of other numbers. Are they all on the same side?"

"It's significant that Director Sung mentioned the second half of the league. It seems like this isn't their first time participating in the Space League."

"How can a race like that be in the Bronze league?"

"I'm worried about what kind of map they'll bring out..."

And then.

"Using the select card, I choose the game map 'Sanctum Research Lab.'"

Director Sung JiHan took out the prepared map.

"The 'Sanctum Research Lab' map has special settings."

"Shall I load all the settings?"

"Four select cards are required."

"Yes."

In response to Director Sung's answer, the information about the Sanctum Research Lab map came to mind.

"Requirements for entering the Sanctum Research Lab."

"Only the top-ranked player of each race can participate."

Upon seeing this condition, Director Davis swallowed his frustration.

"Only the top-ranked..."

"Consider it an honor. It's not a place for races like humanity to enter. Originally. But your number one ranking is so exceptional that we've prepared a stage worthy of it."

In any case, now that they were summoned to the Sanctum Research Lab, the journey of humanity's top-ranked player was over.

Director Sung JiHan was satisfied with that.

And then.

"The Sanctum Research Lab..."

Sung JiHan smiled as he looked at the map name in the waiting room.

"Uncle... What do we do? It seems like they prepared this on purpose!"

"It's actually good, isn't it? The map name seems to have a lot to plunder."

"Hey, plunder?"

"Yeah. I'll be back. See you later."

He lightly waved his hand to the players who were looking at him with concern and finally made his debut in the Space League game after five matches.
