Link (5)

Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho found the stairs heading downward. As they stood before them, a short cutscene began.

"The exit has collapsed, so it'll be hard to move the raw materials themselves."

"Then what should we do...?"

"It's better to just take the finished product. If we have diving suits, we could resume the exploration of the Missing Link secured by headquarters."

At the protagonist's words, Park Juho's character nodded in agreement.

― Oh, so you really do go out through the underwater passage, lol

― The finished product must take up less space, lol

― We might as well just make and wear them and secure two, lolol

As the viewers agreed, the protagonist operated the manufacturing device.

"It'll probably start manufacturing as soon as we put in the materials."

"If we do this, we can save time."

"We're in the middle of enemy territory. Let's move."

With the protagonist's words, the two moved to the stairs. Control was naturally returned to the player.

"It looks even worse down here."

"It's darker too."

Upstairs, a soft blue light illuminated the darkness along the walls, but this place was different. The light was dim, making the field of view narrow, and even distant objects were only faintly outlined.

― Did this collapse naturally?

― Or maybe monsters broke in?

― If it connects to the sea, it's highly possible, lol

― Oh, lol, it seems the elevator was smashed from below?

Viewers shared their opinions as they looked at the rubble. After going on for a while—

'Something's there.'

Lee Gyeongbok sensed a threat in the darkness. Judging by the impression, it was a different species than the monsters encountered so far.

"As expected, it seems there are enemies."

"Enemies?"

Park Juho's question was echoed by question marks in the chat. They had no clues about the presence of enemies.

"Can't you hear it? It makes a clacking sound, like blades colliding. It's coming from up ahead."

"... I can't hear it at all, but if you say so, I'll trust you."

Talking as they advanced several steps further, the game entered another cutscene, as expected. The corridor widened, and a plaza-like area appeared.

Before entering, the protagonist halted with a hand signal.

"What is it... That's!?"

"It's a Crab Claw."

With those words, the camera panned. It was a red hybrid creature, part crab with a hard shell and pincers, and part human.

― Ugh, look at those antenna eyes;;

― He looks like he'd be great at selling hamburgers, lol

― That's a real-life Mr. Crab, jeez

― So, does that make the Sea Witch a squid character? lol

― So Atlantis was actually Bikini City all along?

― Now all we need is some sponge rice, lol

While viewers imagined other characters, the Crab Claw looked around.

It staggered forward and bumped into the debris ahead.

"They really don't have good eyesight..."

But when a crystal embedded in the wall was knocked loose and fell, its movement immediately changed.

In a speed uncharacteristic of before, the pincer shot out and grabbed the falling crystal.

A shrill screech echoed from the friction between the sharp claw and the crystal. Realizing it was useless, the creature hurled the crystal away.

"Captain, what should we do? Should we deal with it?"

"... No, that shell's tough to penetrate. I heard you'd have to shoot it multiple times even with a gun. Plus, gunshots or lights might attract more of them."

The protagonist looked seriously at the crystal he was holding.

"We should be fine as long as we don't expose ourselves to the light. Let's proceed with caution."

"Understood."

From the conversation, viewers could tell what kind of play the developers wanted.

― So, they want us to stealth our way through here?

― Usually, stealth segments give you a detection range for enemies, but this one's the opposite, lol

― For real, lol, the player can control it

― If they make stealth too hard in a non-stealth game, they'd get complaints, lol

― Feels like it just has a hint of stealth added, lol

It was safe as long as you controlled the crystal's light while passing through. Still, Lee Gyeongbok expressed doubt at the chat.

"Wouldn't it be easier to just grab and go?"

"... There goes another cutscene dialogue rendered meaningless."

As Park Juho shook his head behind him, viewers laughed.

― Perpagogo's shaking his head too, lol

-???: That's not how you do it (tears)

― It's not even backseating at this point, the developer's crying, lol

― Let's take the boat! (doesn't), let's sneak by! (doesn't)

-???: I don't want to do it your way!

― But since it's Godple, it's fine, lol

At their reaction, Lee Gyeongbok quickly waved his hand.

"No, seriously, this strategy is super simple. Really, anyone can do this. Hey, even you could do it if you saw it."

"Me?"

That bold claim changed the mood in the chat. What kind of trick could it be?

Lee Gyeongbok smiled confidently and held up the crystal.

"So, if you watched yesterday's broadcast, you'll know: quest items don't break, right?"

― Oh, here he goes again!

― Hyung! Blocking with the crystal is not something ordinary people can do!

-???: You tricked me!

― Starting off with a lie already, lolol

― Purple: stomp stomp (doesn't even bother to hide anymore)

Grinning at the playful backlash, Lee Gyeongbok let out a dry laugh.

"No, I'm not blocking with it. This— Actually, let me just show you."

He approached the Crab Claw as everyone focused in anticipation and threw the crystal.

"You lure them like this."

The moment the Crab Claw was exposed to the light and turned toward the crystal, Lee Gyeongbok drew his sword, boldly climbed onto the creature's back, and swung at its stalk-like eyes.

Unlike the hard shell, the eye was cleanly cut.

"Watch out...!"

But that wasn't the end. Losing its eye didn't kill the Crab Claw.

On the contrary, enraged by pain, it began to wildly swing its pincers. Park Juho tried to shout out a warning, but ended up closing his mouth in surprise.

"Anyone who's eaten crab knows, right? Not every shell is hard."

As if he had already predicted this, Lee Gyeongbok calmly bantered while widening his distance.

Park Juho caught the meaning.

"You're telling me to target the belly?"

"Exactly."

Brief and to the point, but Park Juho and the viewers weren't convinced.

Wouldn't they have to charge right up to the rampaging Crab Claw to hit the belly?

"As long as you don't panic and stay calm, it's doable. The pincers are big, so there's more leeway than you think."

Lee Gyeongbok immediately demonstrated.

Slipping through the gap as the pincers sliced through the air, he slashed the creature's abdomen just as he described.

"See? It goes down easily. No worries."

True to its 15+ rating, the scene wasn't too gory. The Crab Claw, stabbed in its weak spot, collapsed backward in a death motion.

― This isn't supposed to be hard?

― For Godple, this crab really isn't tough, lol

― Is this that crab? Lol

― No, lol, of all the things Godple's shown us, this is one of the easier ones.

― There's no way an ordinary person could pull this off.

― Aren't the standards for ordinary people way too harsh?

Viewers found it hard to agree. But then Lee Gyeongbok picked up the crystal and handed it to Park Juho.

"Alright, now Perpagogo will demonstrate."

"Hmm..."

"Seriously, you can do it. Just copy exactly what I showed, and that's it."

"If I keep calm, I think I can manage."

Nodding, Park Juho took the crystal and set his sights on the next target.

"Lure, cut the eyes, slash the abdomen. Three steps."

Recalling the strategy, he composed himself. There was no need to rush.

Methodically, though more slowly than Lee Gyeongbok, he carefully followed each step.

"Whew..."

After barely dodging the pincers and stabbing the abdomen, Park Juho was finally able to breathe easy.

"It actually works."

"Told you, right? Everyone saw that?"

When Lee Gyeongbok asked with a pleased grin, the viewers laughed as well.

― It worked, but come on!

― Sure, godple makes it look easy, but Perpagogo also has good physical skill!

― I doubt any normal player could do it, lol

― Maybe Troopers aren't even up to the standard of an ordinary person?

― Huh!

― Actually, it's the ban that matters

― Perpagogo isn't an ordinary person! Definitely not!

― Trha, you and the Troopers...

― But Godple really made it a lot easier than it should be, lol

― For real, honestly, godple could probably just poke the abdomen in one step, no need to lure at all

Lee Gyeongbok clapped his hands, smiling at the chat.

"I'll try handling it in one move too. But since Perpagogo's playing along, I'd rather we clean things up together as a team."

"Yeah, I'll get faster as I get used to it."

The viewers accepted that decision readily.

― If you can take it down, you should!

― If you leave it, it'll backstab you!

― Sweep them all up!

There was no reason to leave danger behind.

* * *

Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho continued their exploration, taking stock of the situation.

"From the map, it looked pretty complicated, so I thought it'd take longer, but it's not so bad."

"It's probably because this is a story stage. A linear path lets you focus on the gameplay."

Although the cutscene map showed multiple possible paths, most had collapsed on the way down.

Thanks to that, they didn't have to wander.

"Oh, here's another plaza."

"Doesn't look like there's a Crab Claw."

Arriving at a newly opened space, they scanned the area.

"Huh? This passage looks undamaged."

"Maybe there's something we need to find here."

The round structure with connecting corridors was made up of rooms, just as seen at the entrance.

But inside, it wasn't furniture.

"What is this?"

"Did they store something here?"

The rooms contained cracked barrels. They didn't look like living spaces; aside from the barrels, there was nothing else.

― Maybe it's for growing plants?

― Oh, could be

― But for a cultivation room, there's no soil

― Also, there are way too many barrels

― Is the whole place just barrels like this?

Checking the other corridors revealed no difference. Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho headed for the closed stairway door, prompting another cutscene.

"The material storage shown on the map is below this. Don't let your guard down."

"Understood."

The protagonist inserted a crystal to open the door, but instead a hologram video was projected.

"What the..."

The protagonist's eyes widened, then darted to the opposite wall, where another slot appeared onscreen.

Apparently, they'd activated something else.

"Captain, humans!"

"Are they Atlanteans?"

Soon people appeared in the video. Both the protagonist and the viewers focused.

― What's up with Atlantis fashion?

― What's with the tight suits!?

― Aren't those diving suits?

― Yeah, looks like they just took off the helmets and oxygen tanks

― But why are so many people gathered?

― Is there a festival?

― Why's there no audio!?

Unfortunately, there was no sound from the footage. But that didn't mean they couldn't figure out the situation.

"Looks like something happened."

The people gathered in the plaza wore angry expressions. Some held signs.

― Upward arrows? What?

― There's a drawing of land too?

― Do they want to go to the surface?

― Oh, so they're protesting to be let out

Though they couldn't read the writing, the symbols made the meaning clear. The protagonist also read the situation, just like the viewers.

"Seems like they want to go up but can't..."

But the situation quickly changed. People in helmets appeared around the protesters, holding Atlantean-made firearms.

"These weapons look like the ones used by the Sea Witch."

Someone who seemed to be in charge said something, gesturing for them to turn back.

But the protesters didn't retreat. Instead, they waved their signs more fiercely.

"What the...?"

It happened in the blink of an eye. As the leader gestured, people began to drop.

― Wait, did they just shoot them?

― There's no blood though?

― Are those stun rounds, not lethal?

― They all drop quick, maybe tranquilizer darts?

Shaking his head, the commander gestured again, and the helmeted people began moving the unconscious protesters.

The video ended there.

"... No matter how advanced the technology, places where people live are all the same in the end."

The protagonist shook his head with a bitter tone.

"Let's hurry."

He inserted the crystal into the other slot.

The previously closed stairs opened, revealing an even darker area below.

* * *

Crab Claws were present below as well. Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho dispatched them with ease.

― Now they're just slicing through, lol

― It's expected for Godple, but why's Perpagogo so good?

― If it's input, it's never forgotten! That's Perpagogo!

― Oh, haha, total data analysis power, lol

― Perpagogo-style deep learning, crazy

As the viewers marveled at Park Juho's rapid improvement, Lee Gyeongbok smiled.

'That's all of them taken care of.'

There were no more threats detected. He relaxed and headed straight for their destination.

"We've arrived."

Opening the storage room door with a crystal, another cutscene played. The protagonist and Park Juho exchanged looks and quickly rummaged through the piles of boxes.

"This is it."

The protagonist found a box marked with the same material symbol as the recipe.

"Grab it and follow me."

"Yes, sir."

Each of them took a box.

"It's a bit heavy, whatever it is. It really would be tough to carry out just the raw materials."

Lee Gyeongbok described the weight he felt through synchronization for the viewers. Meanwhile, the protagonist opened a door and entered a shaft connected to the ceiling.

"It's a materials intake slot. I think I need to put it in here. Bring more materials."

"Got it."

After he left, the protagonist finished feeding the materials and looked around. That's when the room's details appeared onscreen.

"What is this place for?"

He looked curiously at the glass panels on the wall, some of which had fallen off. Below them were strange metal devices.

The protagonist didn't know what they were, but Lee Gyeongbok and the viewers figured it out.

"From the setup, this looks like some sort of control room."

― For real, looks exactly like a CCTV room!

― I bet this is set up just like the transit map, so you can always know what's going on, lol

― Bet the helmet guys from the video work here?

― The one from earlier giving orders must be the control chief

Park Juho arrived carrying another box. As he moved to insert more materials, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Captain, something's wrong."

"Hm?"

When the protagonist looked over, red letters appeared next to the intake slot. He frowned and scanned the area.

"Is there something else we need to do? Maybe we need to activate something..."

He examined the metal devices. There were several slots for crystals.

"There's not much time to think."

After a moment's thought, he inserted a crystal. As the device activated, the glass panels lit up.

"... What is this?"

He wasn't the only one surprised. Question marks flew up in the chat.

― What the? Why are there monsters!?

― I wondered what those barrels were for, jeez

― Did the Atlanteans create these monsters?

― Thought it was a cultivation facility, but it's monster-cultivation?

― Or maybe they captured sea monsters to research?

The broken barrels they'd found on the way down had once looked like this on record. Inside had been Deep Ones, sea Witches, and various monsters like the Crab Claw.

"What on earth were the Atlanteans thinking...?"

The protagonist shook his head, unable to understand. He pulled out the crystal and inserted it elsewhere.

Suddenly a keening sound started up.

"Captain?"

"Is this the sound Camilla mentioned?"

The irritating sound drew a scowl from the protagonist.

He tried to quickly remove the crystal, but a moment too late—static flickered across the glass, and the display changed.

― Oh? Is this real-time?

― Looks like it's showing the flooded floor

― The lower area is completely underwater

― It seems directly connected to the sea at this point

― Are they going to put on diving suits and go deeper?

As viewers speculated about the underwater scenes, something moved in the dark water.

"My god..."

"The monsters? Why are they...!?"

Swimming down the passage, monsters like Deep Ones and Sea Witches appeared.

In a sudden turn of events, the protagonist's eyes wavered, then darted to the crystal.

"The sound? Is it attracting them?"

"C-captain! All material intake is done!"

Looking back, the red letters were gone and the box could be seen moving up through the shaft.

Decisively, the protagonist sprang into action.

"We're escaping immediately. Just pick up the diving suits and go."

"Aye, sir!"

With Park Juho's prompt reply, the cutscene ended.

[10:00:00]

As the time limit appeared, the urgent situation came to an end, but neither Lee Gyeongbok nor the viewers seemed very worried.

― What's with this 10-minute escape?

― Oh, so you were supposed to sneak past Crab Claw again on the way back

― But they've already cleared out all the enemies, lol

― It's a free pass, I'm telling you

― The developers must be in tears again, lol

-???: Surely this will get the players' adrenaline pumping!

― Yeah~ no~ you just walk out and it's done~

Normally, the expected scenario would be to avoid Crab Claws while escaping before the monsters arrived.

But there weren't any left.

― Oh, lol, it was so hard to avoid spoilers

― This is supposed to be a cash-grab section, lol

― Spending players just dump everything into defense items and escape

― Honestly, even without killing them, perpagogo's bulletproof vest and Godple's physical skill would've made escaping easy, lol

As experienced players joked, Lee Gyeongbok playfully feigned regret.

"Come on, you can't do that. The developers intended all of this!"

"Are you really one to talk..."

Park Juho let out a dry laugh as the viewers responded immediately.

― Hyung! Where's your conscience?!

― You came in through a totally different route anyway, lol

― PlantWiki/Godple/Controversy/DeveloperBypass

― What's with developer bypass, lol

― How can someone with so much prestige in changing game genres say this?

"Hey, I had no choice—I needed to show viewers the no-spending strategy."

Unfazed by the flurry of chat, Lee Gyeongbok just joked along. He glanced at the dwindling timer and gestured to the audience.

"I'll leave the tense escape up to you all! We'll be out in no time."

That got the chat laughing.

― The magic spell: 'With the god-powers of King-level players', lol

― Come on, don't you know the recipe and the reality are always different?

― Another perfect shortcut emerges!

There wasn't any "developer-approved" shortcut—Lee Gyeongbok's route was the shortcut.

― It's common sense: shortcuts aren't made by developers; Godple makes them

― This guy is just a shortcut generator, lol

― Just playing normally, he's still so fast, lolol

― For real, it isn't even a shortcut, but he makes it one

Well, if you could do it, why not?
