Chapter 393: Monarch (1)
NET Media had hit a home run twice in a row with its exclusive contract with Unknown, also known as Kai. The result of that contract had been the entertainment shows "Battle of the Bir Plains” and “Dungeon of the Absolute.” As expected, both programs had become unprecedented hits and thanks to that, NET Media had firmly secured its place as a top game channel.
Naturally, there was no way they would pass up the war content that all the players were focused on. They hurriedly scheduled a new program and even brought in a famous ranker to sit in the commentator’s seat. That commentator was none other than the solo player Clark, who was active in the Black Market guild under a hefty salary.
“I see, so Clark, you're saying you expect Rashion to win, correct?” Do Joo-Wan, a handsome anchor hosting the show, smiled as he asked the question.
“Well, saying I expect them to win might sound arrogant but it's not wrong,” Clark responded with a confident voice. “You may not know this, but it's actually much harder to attack than defend.”
“I suppose that's true. Defenders only need to block the enemy’s offense.”
“Exactly. Now take a look at the fortresses Rashion Kingdom has locked down.” As Clark pointed, a 3D map appeared on the broadcast screen. “The north gate, Siris Fortress in the east, Ontarina Fortress in the west... They’re all natural fortresses known to be impenetrable.”
“Oh! That must be a nightmare for the attackers.”
“One versus a hundred. In other words, it’s a territory where one soldier can easily hold off a hundred enemies. And the Aldebaran players? Honestly, they can’t be compared to the Rashion army who leveled up while steadily growing strong on fertile lands. The same goes for the skill level of the players as well.”
“As expected of you, Mr. Clark. You deliver commentary with the ease of a true ranker. It’s truly an honor to have you with us today.”
As the compliments continued, Clark puffed his chest with pride.
Just then, Xao Lin led the Black Dragon army, and stepped forward to the front lines.
“At this very moment, the Black Dragon army appears to be constructing siege weapons on the spot under Xao Lin’s command. What are your thoughts on this?”
