Chapter 241

Chapter 241. New rankers are always welcome.

Of course, Königs, it’s a situation I’m already well aware of, so there wasn’t much to see.

Title: The 9th place nickname seems to have solidified as a political officer.

But honestly, if you grab someone who was trying to desert by the collar and throw them into a punishment unit, isn’t that what a political officer does?

What else would it be?

A commissar?

Comments:

– [Hmm… undeniable logic]

– [Interesting]

– [Officer, this isn’t a retreat, it’s a counterattack!]

– [Interesting opinion]

Just them throwing around weird jokes and teasing each other with nicknames, I guess?

Originally, the ranker Königs had already been talked about a lot among the kids, so it was hard for any additional stories to come out.

But unlike him, this was practically the first time for the 10th place, Mona Lisa.

Through users who met him, various stories kept coming out.

Title: Isn’t the 10th place Mona Lisa that gold horse?

Besides, there was that thing before about faction trust and all that work, right?

Back then, he boasted about surviving because of his looks and got marked by the 2nd place, right?

He managed to survive somehow.

Comments:

– [Why, why, why, why]

– [Please look at him cutely] (Author)

– [The 2nd place probably just wanted to destroy the ship and ended up wrecking everything]

– [Did he go and beat them up with just patrol ships or destroyers?] (Author)

– [No, he went all out with a cruiser or above]

– [Then there’s no helping it]

Title: I’ve seen that guy before, he gets a crazy ship boost.

This is from a really long time ago.

Even back then, he was rolling with cruiser battleships and carriers?

At first, I just thought it was awesome because I didn’t know anything.

But now it seems like he gets more of a ship boost than even the 3rd place.

Comments:

– [This is the 10th place Goro]

– [Of course, he’s a ranker, so he must have done it really fast, you can build from level 6]

– [So how long ago was that exactly?]

– [If you’re a top-ranking user, you should be able to ride cruiser battleships or light carriers at least half a year ago]

– [7 or 8 months?] (Author)

– [Oh, then the timing seems off]

And the main topic of these stories was that Mona Lisa’s ‘ship acquisition rate’ was unusually excellent.

Even the acquisition rate of all kinds of large ships and high-class ships was too fast, so suspicions began to explode.

There were all kinds of suspicions mixed in, like whether it was some kind of buggy play.

Especially since the ‘Anomalocaris-Class Combat Aircraft Carrier,’ which played a big role in this event, was suspected of being obtained through a bug.

But us wristbands, not sure if it’s real or not, couldn’t do anything but watch.

Anyway, because of that, stories about reporting to the management kept popping up…

The gallery’s bait kept igniting, burning in all kinds of ways, reminiscent of the viral marketing commonly seen in pre-Korean times.

But that was just for a moment.

Title: The 10th place isn’t buggy play.

Because I gave it to him.

After my base got destroyed once and I lost half my fleet, I thought it was impossible and handed it over to a nearby user.

I saw that he was part of the Space Elf faction, so I thought it was good and handed it over after getting some resources.

So he stopped chasing me, and that guy got a huge ship, win-win.

Comments:

– [Oh]

– [Why is this surviving?]

– [The reason he’s being chased is because he took the carrier from Space Kanfu and kept it for himself, but actually, that carrier…]

– [Oh ho]

– [Wow, you survived this, congrats]

—————————————-

The former ranker ‘Moolim Geonjo’, who had been chased for months by the Xenobia Empire fleet, managed to hijack the ‘Anomalocaris-Class Combat Aircraft Carrier’. Thanks to his explanation post, the situation quickly calmed down.

Next.

Comments:

– [These jokers lololol]

– [It’s like they’re ready to kill over anything, it’s almost artistic]

– [Rank 10 got roasted]

– [Crying lol]

– [Wrong]

—————————————-

After a silent execution by users who watched the users who had become forest friends, a bonfire ceremony was held.

==========

Anyway, through browsing the gallery, I managed to get a clearer picture of the new rankers.

“So Königs is skilled, and Mona Lisa relies on ships? Hmm…”

“It feels like the Commander was split in half and combined.”

“…Is that so?”

Jessica wasn’t wrong. Even in the gallery, it was mentioned that ranks 9 and 10 seem like rank 3 split in half.

—————————————-

Title: But don’t you think ranks 9 and 10 are literally rank 3 split in half?

The structure is exactly like that.

Rank 3 has both physical skills and ship power.

Take away the physical skills, and you get rank 9.

Take away the ship power, and you get rank 10 lol.

Comments:

– [True]

– [Hmm, seems like it]

– [If you combine them, they’d hit rank 3, something like that]

—————————————-

Although the reactions were lukewarm, since they did come up, I nodded at Jessica’s words, thinking she wasn’t wrong.

Anyway, after roughly understanding the situation with the new rankers, I was about to get to my tasks when…

“Ah!”

A new message popped up with a *ping*, and I checked it, annoyed but curious.

—————————————-

<Admin Notice>

<The previous admins 'Sorin Monk' and 'Arto' have been removed from their positions due to insufficient qualifications.>

<Their positions will be filled by 'Königs' and 'Mona Lisa'.>

<We hope there will be no misunderstandings regarding the admin changes.>

—————————————-

“Ah.”

“Huh, the admins changed faster than I thought.”

“Right?”

Seeing that the armbands were replaced just hours after the event ranking was announced, I thought they were quite efficient. I decided to focus on my tasks, which, of course, were the fun and exciting base construction tycoon and resource gathering.

But just as I was about to concentrate, Jessica suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.

“Ah!”

I felt like I kept getting interrupted every time I tried to do something, so I wondered what the problem was. Jessica tilted her head and calmly spoke up.

“By the way, Commander, is there no ranking reward this time?”

“…Huh?”
