ACT 6 Game Exclusive News
“Dammit!”
Ha Myung-woo opened the door and entered the office violently
“How are youthe candidates?”
Ha Myung-woo shouted and threw the docue broadcasted yesterdayNo, the video itself wasn’t a proble was that the main character Ark was one of Global Exos candidates It was a probleets Once again, the reason for the exa Department of Global Exos to find theDepartment had no idea of where the master code could be found
‘According to the information, the master code should be closely related to the scenario of New World’
New World was a garees of freedom But even certain scenarios existed in New World And the scenarios proceeded according to the users’ growth If the users grew quickly then the scenario would progress quickly and if groas slow then the scenario would also slon
‘By hiding the e for ga luck and chance Park Woo-seong made it clear that the master code could only be found after several checkpoints are passed’
As the ned those checkpoints to be within the scenarios Therefore over the last 2 years the Planning Depart reports and videos froht relate to future scenarios And it was very i hidden in New World et their hands on it If information about the master code flowed into the hands of a user asn’t a candidate then Global Exos would be in an unbearable situation
“Thein New World If the person with the master code wanted then they could delete thousands of users’ information at once or they could deliberately cause systeame”
That hat one of the ga happened then Global Exos would be daed by several billion won But that was only a part of what the master code could do There was an even worst situation
“The New World syste which affects the syste could impact the users’ brain In the worst case scenario, the user would suffer serious brain dae”
Yes, that was the situation they were ers always existed since virtual reality connected to the brain Therefore all virtual reality games had safety equipment which double and triple checked safety New World was the same The problem was that the master code could even control the safety equipment If a person with the master code unlocked the safety device and restarted the system then hundreds of terabyte information would flood into the users’ brains It was a tremendous amount of information beyond the limits of the brain! Users who received such a boht become brain dead Then ould happen if a user who didn’t know about the master code obtained it? In the worst case scenario, they would have to discontinue New World and lose the billions invested in it Yes, obtaining the master code was like a life or death situation for Global Exos
‘Even if we have to use hundreds or thousands of personnel, we have to find it!’
But keeping this information secret was just as important If any of the other rival coet out of hand The second problem was if a rival company obtained the master code If the competitors knew the truth about the master code and the risks to users, Global Exos would receive a lot of criticis New World anyway Therefore it wasfor the master code So the staff decided to use the candidates
‘We can freely obtain inforh the candidates’
Ha Myung-woo also often turned on the broadcast at night to monitor news Fortunately, the war between users in theproblems But if any information about the e probleer, he couldn’t just let it pass!
‘Of all things, a video of one of the special ets…!’
“Where is Ho Myung-hwan? Bring hiht now!”
Ha Myung-woo shouted angrily At the sa Department and shouted
“T-Teae!”
“Huge? What could be bigger than this problem?”
“Huh? That’s…no, please look at this data The Public Relations Depart and showed me this It is truly a jackpot!”
Ho Myung-hwan explained in an excited voice

“What the, this is?”
When he woke up in the ined that it would beco in the defensive war, Hyun-woo had felt a huge sense of burden This as different fro on the outcome, two years of hard work and sweat could fly away The stolen goods, the real estate invested in Lancel village and the goods froold Tens of thousands of gold…… When converted to e price which reached hundreds of ant ae amount could fly away in one et any rest during the last two days He wasn’t able to sleep Although it was inside the game, Hyun-woo also had his life at stake
‘If I was defeated then I would really die of a heart attack……’
But luckily the war ended with Hyun-woo’s victory He had risked his life and protected his assets All the tension within Hyun-woo had been cut and he had fallen asleep and only just woke up Then he logged into the co about it and his mouth opened absentmindedly
-I really was thrilled!
-He was silent for a while after Seutandal rose but this really was a tremendous job
-As expected from Dark Wolf Dark Wolf really is the hero of New World!
-Dark Wolf, Dark Wolf, Dark Wolf!
Hyun-woo had logged into the auction site to exae The various bulletin board and infor about Dark Wolf That wasn’t all While it was rare for a non-celebrity to reach the top 10 in search rankings on portal sites, the Dark Wolf fan club had reached 3~4 in the search rankings It reached the extent that there were even fan clubs fron countries
‘What’s going on?’
Hyun-woo looked at the monitor filled with the name Dark Wolf with a stupid expression Of course Hyun-woo had expected quite a bit of interest after broadcasting the Lancel defensive war He hadn’t really been thinking about that when negotiating with the station However, the actual reaction was a dozen times more than Hyun-woo expected Hyun-woo looked at the monitor with a frozen expression Hyun-as soame Then one day there was an explosion of interest in Hyun-woo, no in Dark Wolf from Korea and the world He honestly didn’t kno he felt about it
Diririri
The phone then rang wile Hyun-asa stupid expression
“hello?”
“Is this Dark Wolf-nim?”
“Huh? Yes, but why?”
“I aayu”
“Ah! Reporter-nim, why are you…?”
Hyun-as still in a state of shock after just waking up so he spoke in a slurred tone Then Lee Yun-gyu hesitated before explaining
“That’s…no, I can’t tell you over the phone It involves a copyright proble station right away? Just tell the guards that you’re Dark Wolf”
Since Lee Yun-gyu sounded a little weird, Hyun-woo hurried over there When he arrived at the broadcasting station, a man quickly ran out
“Ah, welcoyu’
“Yes, hello?” But why do you need ? What’s the matter?”
“Problee problem”
“A huge problem?”
“I can’t talk about it here so please enter for the ”
Lee Yun-gyu guided Hyun-woo into the broadcasting station When he arrived at theHe was the teareeted the Teahed and said
“Have you connected to the internet today?”
“Huh? Ah, yes……”
“That is anted to meet you today”
“Because of that?”
When Hyun-woo tilted his head with confusion, both Lee Yun-gyu and the Teahed Then their eyes landed on Hyun-woo and they paused before speaking
“The results cas for the Lancel defensive war broadcasted yesterday Do you kno ly it was 35! When the broadcast started it was on 7 but the ratings had gone up to 35 before it finished!”
“……So?”
Hyun-woo scratched his head and muttered Of course, even Hyun-ho never watched dranificant as had no effect on hi about audience viewershi+p?
“This is the best audience rating since the gas had jumped from 7 to 35”
“……What is your point?”
Hyun-woo answered with an unirasped Hyun-woo’s hands
“Let’s sign a contract!”
“Huh?”
“Now all the users in the country who play New World…no, there is nobody in New World who doesn’t know about Dark Wolf Our station’s website and telephone line was paralyzed fro who Dark Wolf is The audience’s interest in you can’t even compare with that of a celebrity If Dark Wolf-nie jackpot!”
‘They broughtstation just to say this?’
Hyun-woo sighed and shook his head
“I’estion but I already said that I have no intention of appearing on the broadcast”
He didn’t want his face to beco to waste ti station The station had contacted him many times but he had always refused His ansas still the same, especially with the interest concentrated further on him There was no reason for him to accept the offer But the Team Chief also shook his head
“No, the request isn’t for you to appear on the broadcast”
“But you talked about a contract?”
“What I meant…you explain it to him”
“Yes, in the past I wanted Dark Wolf-nim to appear on the broadcast directly but I realized I had the wrong idea after looking at the broadcaster’s ratings”
Lee Yun-gyu explained to Hyun-woo
“The wrong idea?”
“It will be fine if Dark Wolf-nim appears as Dark Wolf”
“What are you talking about?”
“In fact, our tea why the video got such an absurd amount of interest While there was already interest in the Lancel war thanks to the Criest role is Dark Wolf’s mystery as an unidentified warrior”
“An unidentified warrior?”
“Yes, Dark Wolf-nied four tie of Silvana, the Seutandal war and now this incident The users have never seen Dark Wolf outside of those incidents”
It was natural He only transforyu s
“In fact, the audience was also interested in the users with you But their interest in those users weakened quickly Whenever you appear, the interest is only focused on Dark Wolf-ni about Dark Wolf-nim In addition, the users never knohat to expect when you appear in a video”
Yes, the psychology of the interest in Hyun-as si station cae ratings So if Hyun-woo appeared on the broadcast then it would actually pour cold water on the viewers’ interest
“But it is hard to give up the overwhelaameplay Since your face won’t be directly shown and it will be possible to maintain the interest in Dark Wolf, wouldn’t there be no burden on you?”
Hyun-woo felt refreshed by Lee Yun-gyu’s proposal Certainly there was no reason for Hyun-woo to reject The contract was no different fro the ‘Netherworld exploration of a wicked wolf’ video If Dark Wolf’s identity was concealed and the audience ratings increased then there was no need to worry about personal infor Furthermore, he didn’t have toall videos of his gameplay to Global Exos The station only required a 10 minute video once a week so he just had to pick a decent video of Dark Wolf It was a fixed income that would come in once a week It was an unexpected chance!
‘But……’
There was one proble the video Hyun-woo already had a contract with Global Exos to send his videos to thehts to all the videos Ark took That right also extended to whether the video could be broadcasted on TV> He hadn’t thought about that part when he had contacted the station about broadcasting the Lancel defensive war It wasn’t until thisthat he had worried about the contract If Global Exos decided it was a breach of contract then it would be a serious problem
‘If I sign another contract then I’ll be sued’
Anyway, he couldn’t blindly sign the station’s contract
“The offer is appreciated but I’ll have to consult so”
Hyun-woo sighed and replied but Lee Yun-gyu just nodded and said
“I’m aware of that Is it because of Global Exos?”
“Huh? How do you know that?”
“In fact, we got a phone call thisDepartment of Global Exos At first they called to protest about the video That’s why our contact with Dark Wolf-nim is so delayed”
‘Of course……!’
Hyun-woo felt his heart fall
