A dry land of death where suffocating heat heats the endless sand desert. It was one of those prohibitions never to set foot in, with countless victims killed by huge scorpions waiting for travelers beneath the sand.

But now, the desert has become the Golden Road for pioneers blinded by gold. By countless explorers and merchants, more people than ever before were stepping in.

“Wow... is Dwarf equipment that popular?”

Apple's story that orders are pouring in among merchants trying to get dwarf-made goods. When he said that there were many people who wanted to buy things even with a higher amount of money, Jae-kyun said with bright eyes as if he was envious.

“Wow..... Then you must have made a lot of money! It seems like there are a lot of stories in the news these days.”

The upper house that the couple is running as the same merchant. There weren't that many users who played as merchants, so it was a story thrown roughly as I guessed, but at Jae-gyun's words, the two said with a bitter smile.

“I don't make that much money like the news says. I have to be good at what I bring this time, so I should leave a little at the main exhibition.”

“uh? is it so? why?”

The media makes headlines about earning billions of won in gold from a single trade, but Apple and Lemon seem to be completely different. The two began to lament the difficulties of a small guild that could not tell others to Jae-gyun, who asked in puzzlement.

“First of all, this is because of economies of scale. Talking about it in the press or news is, in fact... it's no different than talking about one particular top.”

“If it's a certain guild... can't it be...?”

“that's right. It’s GM’s top.”

Based on the mighty capital of large corporations, it is an upper rank that boasts an overwhelming scale among the upper ranks created by users in an instant and rises to the top. Of course, it wasn't the traditional gigantic upper level that existed in Arcadia, but it was growing frighteningly fast. But Apple and Lemon didn't look so kindly on them.

“Really... I've heard that even large corporations can be petty and vicious, but it's really no joke.”

“yes? What do you mean?”

one month. In the short time when Sand of Forge was released to users and active exchanges began, GM's upper management company set up their own rules on an overwhelming scale and dominated the market.

“First of all, we recruited all of the high-level explorers and wizards specializing in freezing.”

“Oh, I know that.”

“But not only that, but they took away the person who was supposed to work for our guild. Well, I heard that we decided to give twice the amount we agreed to give.

Typical talent extraction. Those who lost their essential manpower overnight because they cleverly seduced the explorers and wizards they hired with great difficulty. The problem was not only that.

“Income from trading is important, but there are some users who are at the top of the list, right? The income from tickets sold by the top bus is also really tough, but they openly solicit customers and take away all the customers.”

You have to hire an explorer or wizard user, or if that doesn't work, you have to pay a lot of money and hire NPCs, but to cover the cost, you have to operate the top bus. However, several small and medium-sized companies, including Apple, are in a situation where no one wants to use the bus, so only flies are blown every time. Hearing the story, Jaekyun exclaimed with a surprised expression on his face.

“uh? We suffered from that too.”

“...is that so?”

“yes. They told me not to go there because I was going to a place where small and medium-sized businesses are concentrated, but somehow that must have been on purpose...”

Jaekyun muttered as if he finally understood everything. In response to his testimony, Apple sighed deeply with a dark expression.

“They do sabotage openly, but we don’t say anything.”

“why?”

“The GM Group in this world is huge, but... the GM Group that exists outside is even bigger.”

The GM Group exists both in virtual and real world. When you think of the retaliatory measures that you will be subjected to knowingly or unknowingly for doing something that interferes with the business of a large company. In their bitter situation, Jaekyun shut his mouth with a confused face, not knowing what to say.

“Hmm... I guess there's a lot to learn from human wickedness. You trample other competitors in an ingenious way.”

Tan scrawled something on the black scroll as if he liked it. El, who was looking at him like that, looked at him with a look of genuine disgust and said.

“What else are you writing that kind of thing, you bastard bat who ate everything from the ground up.”

“Oh that’s noisy. These things should be properly educated to the demons below. I mean, I think I'm going to be pushed back by humans.”

Tan writes down the things he needs to learn each time, perhaps feeling a sense of crisis at the appearance of a strong competitor. L, who had been looking at him pathetically, was grumbling when someone suddenly shouted in a loud voice.

“Supra Lord! Something is running from behind.”

“what....? where....?”

Explorer NPC hired as a mercenary at the top of the pie. Behind him, he pointed, was something speeding up, waving sand and dust.

“what....? Is it the top...?”

Soon after, the group began to be visible to the naked eye. It is not clear, but Apple tilted its head as if it was strange to see dozens of people riding camels. Jaeyoung asked him curiously.

“Why are you like that? What's wrong?”

“No... here in the desert, you should never run so fast because of scorpions.”

Scorpions lurking all over the sand desert.

Vibration is what they sense most sensitively, so the act of running quickly was tantamount to launching a wide-area provocation at the scorpions. That's why it's absolutely taboo no matter what. Apple and Lemon looked uneasy as they saw a group of mysterious people doing things against the common sense that anyone who crossed the desert would know.

And their anxious guesses soon turned into certainties.

“This... why do you think it’s coming our way?”

Those who are running in the exact direction where the top of the pie is. As soon as they got close enough to be able to tell who was who with their eyes, Jaeyoung noticed. The fact that those who have caught up now do not have carts.

“who are you....? What are you doing...?”

A desert where there is an unspoken rule to keep a certain distance from other merchants and move separately. But those who follow the rules as if they don't care about them and menacingly hover around the top of the pie. And then, when Jaekyun found a familiar face, he shouted in a surprised voice.

“uh? That person was that...?!”

An employee of the GM company who tried to entice Jaeyoung and Jaekyun to use the company. He stood there with a sneer on his face, and the others were slowly approaching the top of the pie, weapons in hand, with an air of hostility.

“Hey Apple? Were there bandits here in the desert?”

Jaeyoung asks because he has a guess. However, in response to his question, Apple shook his head with a stiff face.

“...Until now, I've never heard of such a case.”

However, those who approached clearly showed the will to plunder. The mercenaries hired at the top of the pie also tried to fight against them, but because they hired relatively cheap NPCs, it looked like they had no chance of winning.

“What the heck is this...”

Apple and Lemon look like they are quite taken aback by the unexpected situation they are experiencing for the first time. Jaeyoung told the two of them roughly the situation in a low voice.

“It's what GM's upper management team did.”

“yes?”

“I beg your pardon?”

“Over there, that person is the one who urged us to use GM.”

“Is that really...?”

The GM corps conducts all sorts of checks and sabotage against the small and medium corps run by users, probably trying to enjoy a monopoly position in the market. Until now, they knew that they were pressuring them knowingly and unknowingly, but they didn't think they would attack in this way, so Apple shouted at them in a voice filled with anger.

“Hey, you fucking bastards. What if GM is a big company? If you trample on me like this, do you think we can stay still? Just touch a single hair tip! I’m going to spread it all over the internet.”

Users approaching slowly with vicious momentum. Because they were completely outnumbered and outnumbered, the threats were uttered with viciousness. However, at those words, an employee at the top of GM spoke in a tone full of ridicule.

“Ha GM top? We are just a group of bandits, what are you talking about?”

“Stop talking nonsense! Do you think we wouldn't know that it was pulled off like that? Who else but you...”

“Isn’t that a dangerous statement? If you get sued for mentioning a large company like GM without any solid physical evidence, then it would be really difficult.”

Apple's face turned pale at his words of smirking and sneering. If he touches the top of GM, he, who is just an ordinary person in reality, will have to fight with a large company that is in charge of one axis of Korea, and that is so lonely and miserable.

No one knows and no one helps, and you have to endure the long years of suffering by wasting time and money in endless fights. That's why Apple and Lemon had no choice but to look at his ridiculed words.

“We are just bandits. I don’t know why the GM team came out here, but they said they were waiting to rob easy-going members like you.”

A GM employee smirking and sneering at the upper class for being insignificant. He looked at Jaeyoung and Jaekyun and said something mocking.

“Are there any Hogu who use this sloppy Merchant? I'm sorry, but I think I stepped on shit. Even if it's expensive, you have to find a safe place. Don’t you know the saying that cheap is expensive?”

“Let’s kill the master!”

“It is the moment to save the weak in crisis and bring justice to this land.”

He was satisfied with a face full of ridicule as if he had waited for this moment without even knowing who he was touching. There was no concern for him as he clearly outnumbered and outnumbered them.

“Hey Apple.”

“yes....?”

“It was the same last time, but the service is shit this time too.”

“.....”

Apple bites her lips with a dark expression, as if she has nothing to say at Jaeyoung’s words. In a situation where it wouldn't be strange to be annihilated right away, a look of despair appeared on his face.

“Would you like to take some investment at this time? It seems to be in need of a complete overhaul.”

“yes....? investment? What is that.....”

Apple asks with a questionable look when he suddenly brings up the topic of investment. Looking at him, Jaeyoung took off his mask. And muttered in a low voice.

“Kangshin. Lone Crusader Verheimer.”

Whoops.

Quaang.

“What is it?”

“What is this...?”

A giant hammer suddenly appeared. And when they see the torch burning in the hammer, they cry out in bewilderment. Jaeyoung said while looking at the surprised faces of Apple and Lemon.

“Didn’t you say that the GM’s upper management team was shit? Then I will invest myself, so where would you like to grow it properly? The largest caravan in Arcadia history.”

“That's what...”

“In the name of that Dex.”

Jaeyoung took off his mask and returned to his true form. Those who saw the nickname proudly displayed above his head were astonished.

[Lone Crusader Dex]

“De Dex?”

“Could that be from the Great Spear War...?”

That moment when everyone is shocked by the sudden change. Jaeyoung said with a more evil smile than ever before.

“Here... the hammer is out, you bastards.”
