I Regressed But The World Didn’T Fall Apart 53

The World Didn’t Collapse When I Returned -53-

053.

“I am Kangrim.”

With Lee Dohyuk’s declaration, the chat window explodes at an explosive speed.

-Extreme

-Extreme

-Kya

-Wow

-Sssss

-Shout!!

-The Advent of Godddd

-Rock

-Let’s go!

-Shout!!!

-I am Kangrimmm

-Trying to be witty lololol

-Rock

-HEEuuuM!

Most of the chat was filled with exclamations, but there were occasional questions directed at Lee Dohyuk.

Normally, as soon as the chat is typed, it quickly scrolls up at zero-point-something seconds, making it hard to read properly…

“Are you going to stream? Today, we might either have a situation report Part 2, or take a break. Did you see Anatol’s official? I didn’t say anything like that. Oh, I heard Mad Movie posted on the forum, but I didn’t confirm with Jian.”

Lee Dohyuk’s keen eyesight that reads each word accurately.

He even picks out the ones worth answering and replies.

-hahahahaha what’s this

-He reads the chat so well lol

-Insane eyesight damn

-Even in slow-mo, he reads everything and answers, this is a piece of cake

“Come to think of it, I’m pretty sure I mentioned before during the opening that it would be nice to call viewers by their nicknames…”

The advice Jian gave when he was considering starting his own broadcast.

Of course, the advice was given because no one could have predicted Lee Dohyuk’s broadcast growth to be this rapid.

[Current Viewers: 8,261]

‘What is this.. Time’s almost up.’

Therefore, let go of the nickname calling neatly.

And what viewers seeking in his broadcast isn’t such trivial kindness.

-Will he run for the top spot in the Apex 1?

-Kya

-Oe-oe-woo-woo

-Dojo squad, ready to go!

The monster rookie, insane physicality, appearing like a comet, taming the Ultimate Fighter, The Ultimate,

Truly an otherworldly feat···

Well, even if such grand words are put to rest for now.

Thump-thump-thud-thud-thump-thud-

[Iron Fist]

-Turn OFF the filter, GodP ON

-Trying to save some···.?

-What are you trying to save kekeke, stop it

-Hey, you say the game’s done for? From now on, this is the Iron Fist gallery!

-Ten kekeke

-It’s been a while since the game went bad, if you don’t strike back, you’re a loser..

Just 3 days.

In that short time, stirring up the entire Ultimate Fighter community, even causing many absolute masters of the Eolpa martial arts world to stumble, will Lee Do-hyuk show a different side at Iron Fist.

Will he, like at Eolpa, defeat numerous top players here?

Or will he be the one to face defeat?

“Hmm··· Iron Fist?”

-That ‘hmm’ ON

-Is that for real?

-Hmm.. Apex, is that for real?

-kekekeke

-Kya

-Exactly

“Is that for real..?”

[Current viewers: 10,768]

To see that, even though it’s not yet the main time slot, over 10,000 viewers have already tuned in to his broadcast, and the number is still growing.

Of course, what they anticipate isn’t Lee Do-hyuk’s defeat.

Hardly anyone really thinks it will turn out that way.

Hasn’t Lee Do-hyuk already shown too much until now?

Even if Ultimate Fighter and Iron Fist are slightly different games, ultimately they are the same genre of fighting games.

Moreover, it’s only been a few days, and many have already become fans of Lee Do-hyuk.

-Wow.. already (censor) trembling

-Here, have a snack~

-Farewell, Apex heavenly realm, mere students of the game yet to be touched by Sensei Do-hyuk

Thus, what viewers desired was for him to make all the masters despair, just like he did in Ultimate Fighter, and to show that there is something beyond the sky, even beyond that.

“I’ll give it a try.”

In one sentence, it could be summed up as, ‘How would this man fare in Apex?’

-Apex Celestial Realm Top———

-First Top ~~~~

-Huh?

-Grand Emperor Hyuk

-Huh??

**

Thud-

Skipping the opening of Iron Fist, Ido Hyuk quickly moved to the start screen.

[GET READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE]

“Oh.”

He was greeted by a fundamental phrase.

Just like Ultimate Fighter, Iron Fist had evolved from an arcade game in the past.

Ido Hyuk’s childhood preferences leaned towards Alpa, but he was also quite familiar with Iron Fist.

Thud- Thud-

[Hmm, seems familiar]

Once again, Ido Hyuk chose the same nickname as in Ultimate Fighter.

It wasn’t intentional, but it ended up becoming a name that symbolized him.

[#1774]

“Huh?”

As he completed the nickname setup, a battle code appeared.

It meant that there were 1,773 others with the same nickname in front of him.

When setting the same nickname in Alpa, there were definitely three digits.

‘This… isn’t this too many?’

That thought crossed his mind immediately, but there was nothing to be done about it.

From Noble mtl dot com

Who could he blame?

-hahahaha, so many

“I was the 710th, but now it’s increased like crazy.”

“That person at 0001 is so lucky.”

“I’m 1000 lol.”

“Nah, you’re lying.”

-This too must be the grace of Hmm.

Out of around 1,800 [Hmm, seems familiar], probably about 1,750 people changed their nickname after seeing Ido Hyuk.

After setting up his nickname, a clean interface appeared before him.

“Oh. There’s a story mode here too? I didn’t see that in Alpha.”

Unusually for a fighting game, Ultimate Fighter lacked a story mode, unlike Alpha, which had Iron Fist’s story mode at the top.

– As expected, the best game, Iron Fist.

– Well… Isn’t it abnormal for Alpha, a fighting game, to lack a story mode?

– True lol.

– I now realize how messed up Alpha really is…

Swish-

As soon as the story mode and Alpha were mentioned, the chat window sped up once again.

Lee Dohyuk scrolled up and down, reading through the chat messages.

“Aha. So that’s how it happened.”

According to viewers, Ultimate Fighter FD was the world’s first full-dive fighting game to be released.

The development speed was so fast that other competing games released their full-dive versions long after Alpha had been out.

Naturally, with the fast development speed came equally intense backlash.

The absence of a story mode, initial power balance mess, capsule optimization issues, poor sound, and more.

Yet, the effects of being the “first” and “only” were immense; Alpha reportedly sold like hotcakes after its release, boosting the company’s value to the top 5 game companies worldwide.

– Ugh… That’s why I shouldn’t have shown interest in the beginning…

– True… Should’ve ignored it like a painting…

– Ah lol Where did the update go?

Of course, if you sell a title like that and have a pile of problems, it’s only reasonable to address them in future updates.

However, Alpha’s developers made quite a different choice.

Initially, they actively addressed optimization, power balance, sound, and announced that the story mode would be updated soon. But after Iron Fist’s release gained overwhelming popularity, they gave up on additional updates, rather than planning to compete with Iron Fist and Jawung.

There was a behind-the-scenes story where Alpha’s developers attracted wealthy individuals to create a game that would be a hit using their technical skills, causing development resources to shift in that direction.

But that was only revealed long after Alpha had taken all the existing players and become a failure.

“If we talk about online battles, is Alpha like a ranked game?”

Anyway, what Lee Dohyuk chose was the ONLINE mode.

– Lol~

– Yeah, let’s go online.

– Dohyuk, if you have the physique, wouldn’t a story mode suit you?

– True, will Korea’s first ‘The Route’ come out?

“The Route? I am Groot?”

– Wow.

– What’s with the sudden ambush?

-?

– The unmistakable scent of MZ…

Lee Dohyuk asked as he looked at the chat window.

He deliberately came without looking up any information about Iron Fist.

Anyway, he was a complete novice at pool diving, a novice at gaming(?), a situation known to all viewers watching his broadcast.

There was no reason for him to bother looking into this and that and wrinkling his brows in front of thousands of viewers.

Ring-

[‘ApheedWaegeon’ has donated 10,000 won.]

-That route refers to the hidden route discovered at Iron Fist six months ago. A kind of Easter egg. However, due to its difficulty, it was only discovered by a user overseas six months ago, and it’s still too challenging for even Anatol and Beyond to surpass in Korea. The conditions for the hidden route are… Spoilers omitted below.

This is why his numerous SpeedWaegeons in his room are a nice alternative to Wiki.

-Kya

-The long 10,000 won donation + Spoilers omitted was nice.

-That guy who got punched a thousand won cut last time, kekekeke.

“Oh, it was you last time.”

He used to be ApheedWaegeon last time, but it seems he changed his nickname since then.

Thumbs up-

As a gesture of appreciation for the explanation, Ido Hyuk gave a thumbs up.

-What’s the benefit?

-Thanks for the like, Ido Hyuk!

-Is that pose from here?

-Kya, seeing the like from Daehwang Hyuk reminds me of Daehwang Hyuk’s like.

-Oh?

-Parallel theory, wow

Ido Hyuk’s uncommon reaction and the fluctuating chat window due to various situational reasons.

It was a timely explanation, and there was also a small sense of apology for cutting off the previous thousand won punch without mercy.

‘That hidden route… for now, let’s keep it.’

Even though it’s a difficulty level that Anatol and Beyond couldn’t even tackle, Ido Hyuk had no intention of thinking he could do the same.

But right now, it didn’t really attract him.

Still, he planned to remember it.

‘Maybe I can try it later.’

But that’s not for now.

First off, since he ranked first in the rankings yesterday on Alpa, he planned to immediately move on to online matches as an extension of that victory.

There was also a reason to quickly climb the ranks at the moment.

[Would you like to proceed with the tutorial?]

A tutorial-related notification popped up, but skipping it was a given.

Dudung!

It was Ido Hyuk who immediately dove into online matches.

Fortunately, unlike Alpa, there was no need for a required level.

-If it’s Master Ido, no need for a tutorial.

-Tutorial? Ah, Ultimate Fighter, right?

-Heh, kekekekeke

Boom!

And he met his opponent.

“Hmm…”

I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

[Hmm, who will win/KR] VS [Hmm, who will win/KR]

#1774 #1821

“Whoa! I’ve been caught!”

As Soon as I confirmed Lee Dohyuk, I examined the battle codes, and there was the sight of the opponent shouting almost like a scream.

“Oh no.”

I didn’t think of this.

An unplanned impromptu session, viewer participation.

It seemed like a sniper strike timed to the moment when the broadcast was on and the cue was being turned.

-hahahaha, LOL

-What’s with the double agents?

-One of them is going to die, OMG

-Look at that newbie LOL

-Weren’t you on a new account a moment ago?

-I wonder what the sniper’s main character’s level is

The showdown between Hmm, who will win, and Hmm, who will win.

Surely, only one of them will come out alive.

**

Lee Dohyuk stormed into the waiting room.

Bang-!

He lightly stretched his leg.

A sound of explosion in the air.

Of course, it wasn’t a movement beyond the speed of sound, so it must be a sound embedded in the game.

“A bit… slow.”

Compared to Ultimate Fighter.

Considering the difference in body specifications for each character, the character Lee Dohyuk chose is presumed to be a martial artist.

Although Lee Dohyuk has tried various characters in Ultimate Fighter, in the end, wasn’t Hoken the most familiar one?

That’s why he started with a character that looked similar in Iron Fist.

Whoosh- Taat!

A character named Kujo.

After moving his body a few times to check his senses, he understood.

Although the characters in Iron Fist also surpass human limits, the physical abilities in Ultimate Fighter seemed overall higher.

Even if it’s not a significant difference, it’s a distinct one.

“So that’s why the feeling is a bit different.”

Perhaps this is why Iron Fist quickly absorbed the popularity of Ultimate Fighter.

In the case of Ultimate Fighter, for low-ranked ordinary users, they seemed to struggle to adapt properly to the performance of the character I was handling.

“It’ll be different as I move up.”

Lee Dohyuk recalled the conversation he had with Anatol after turning off the broadcast yesterday.

How much time was allotted to him?

Was it ahead… three days?

Ido Hyuk needed to ascend to the supreme rank of Iron Fist, known as Shinjwa, within that time frame.

Of course, it wasn’t just about stopping there; he had his sights set on reaching the ultimate rank, Mulsin, now that he had started.

But what exactly was the highest rank?

“Isn’t there some kind of score here?”

If that’s the highest, then it must be ranked first.

In that case.

“Alright, Iron Fist. Let’s start with the top spot.”

It was not a difficult task at all.
