The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 110: The Group Of Traitors (1)



Chapter 110: The Group Of Traitors (1)

In the 8th round, the mission unfolds with two distinct groups taking center stage.

First, theres the regular group, tasked with safeguarding the guild, and hiding within it lies a covert faction of traitors. 

Naturally, the objectives of these two groups couldnt be more divergent.

The primary aim of the regular group is to ensure the safe passage of the guild to their intended destination. This is the well-known main quest of the 8th round. 

Simultaneously, the sub-quest revolves around unmasking and neutralizing the traitors lurking within their midst.

But if you join the traitor group, the quest will be completely different.

As expected, a new goal appeared before Ryu Min.

[Player Black Scythe joined the traitor group.]

[Main quest and sub-quest are combined into one.]

[The 8th round quest has been changed.]

ROUND 8

Objective: Hinder the guilds progress to the destination

Success Reward: ????

Failure Retry with a 20% reduction in stats and debuff

Three consecutive failures Annihilation

While the regular group aims to safeguard the guild, the traitor groups mission is diametrically opposed. Their purpose is to obstruct the guild from reaching their intended destination. This quest operates discreetly, within the shadows, amidst the masses. One could even liken it to a struggle between the minority and the majority.

It might sound like an impossible task.

However, theres no need for Ryu Min to take on the entire regular group by himself. All he needs to do is prevent the guild from reaching their destination for the quest to succeed. Theres no necessity to turn all players into enemies.

In the end, its only the otherworldly guild that needs to be eliminated.

A swift assassination of the otherworldly merchants is sufficient,  but surviving the players retaliatory onslaught after that is a different matter.

But I dont feel sorry for what Im going to do. If they discover a traitor they will eliminate him without hesitation.

For the regular group, traitors are their targets, in other words, the players are the ones who turned Ryu Min into their enemy.

No, did I turn them into enemies by choosing to be the traitor?

The reason Ryu Min didnt mention the sub-quest in his prophecy becomes evident here. Pursuing the sub-quest would be futile.

You want to kill me, the Black Scythe, and claim the sub-quest reward? Thats cute.

How would people react if they found out that you the traitor you need to deal with is Black Scythe?

A lot of people would give up on the sub-quest without even trying it.

By the way, do these people belong to the same traitor group as me?

Where Ryu Min currently resides is a gray space distinct from the starting point. Alongside the message that he had become a traitor, he had been transported here, with other individuals now visible in his vicinity.

They must be people who couldnt select the guild due to running out of time.

They must be bewildered by their sudden transition into traitors and the daunting task of turning hundreds or even thousands of players into adversaries.

It appears there are fewer than 30 of them.

Now, whether Ryu Min likes it or not, they must work together as members of the traitor group to complete the mission.

However, theres no obligation to cooperate if they have no intention of finishing the quest early.

Its unfortunate for them, but Ryu Min has no intention of concluding the quest prematurely.

Even with the penalty of stat reduction and a retry upon failure

Whats truly crucial is that failure results in annihilation after three attempts. Even if they fail once or twice, it only leads to a stat debuff, without any real loss.

This is the key point the fact that we have three chances.

The traitor group is sequentially deployed with dwarves, elves, and human guilds. 

This means that failing the mission allows you to experience all of them.

Its an opportunity for tremendous level growth.
