I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner - Chapter 606



606 – There Is No Safe Place

It’s a problem that doesn’t really have an answer even after I come forward, so I’m thinking of leaving it to the residents this time.

Little by little, through all the twists and turns, our shelter was forming its own small society.

“The meeting starts in 10 minutes.”

This time, an unknown C-class hunter came running with a slightly flushed expression and spoke.

Although it was a meeting that had been confirmed a few days ago, I couldn’t help but have some expectations.

This is because key personnel among the world’s first barrier magicians who closed the Orc Gate visited our shelter.

Are you here to share your know-how? If so, it would be surprising.

This is because it is not easy to gather opinions as the barrier magicians all have different affiliations.

‘Once the meeting is over, are we going to test merging with Geomryong… I feel strangely nervous.’

Since the advance party showed up early, the appearance of the Orc corps commander would not be far away.

The growth graph was explosively upward, but I was still lacking.

“Well, before we start the meeting, let’s start with a brief self-introduction-“

Everyone showed antipathy to the first words of the unknown A-level hunter who was in charge of hosting the meeting.

“Hey, Mr. Hunter. Where have you come to play?”

“Hehe, I’m not in a very relaxed situation, so rather than introduce myself, I’ll just keep things brief.”

The person who calmed down the sharp reaction was a large middle-aged man.

“Now, let’s start calmly.”

This is Cha Mu-yeol from the White Knight Guild.

He was in charge of the guard of the barrier magicians and seemed to be in a very good mood at first glance.

After hearing that Kang Yeon-soo, who was thought to be dead, was alive and well in our shelter, he quietly disappeared to a place where there were no people.

‘Cha Mu-yeol did care about Yeon-soo.’

“Even if we don’t introduce ourselves, we do at least share simple information. I heard that there are a lot of questions about our shelter. Even if you tell them to stop contacting you, they won’t listen, so ask them everything when you get the chance.”

Yeonsu raised his physical condition to 80% in just one week.

With that alone, he boasted an unrivaled presence among the thirty or so hunters gathered here.

I’m still not sure if she’s made any progress since she dealt with Escaron, but it’s clear that she didn’t have any aftereffects from being stabbed by Maeng Seong-yong.

“Heh…”

When Yeonhee heard the words ‘our shelter’ come out of Yeonsu’s mouth, the corners of Yeonhee’s mouth slowly turned up.

Yeonhee really likes Yeonsu.

After living in the same space for almost a week, the two became closer.

The reason she follows someone so much is because she cares for Yeonhee without receiving any benefits.

Of course, it wasn’t just the friendship between the two that made Yeonsu stay at our shelter.

Bringing her back the next day.

As soon as Yeonsu came to her senses, she ran to me and said this.

“I want to repay my debt somehow. Skeleton. No, Ilwol.”

“Just…?”

I wondered if it was really necessary to do that to a monster, but her eyes were sincere.

I laid out a somewhat vague condition to her, asking her to protect Yeonhee in the future, and after half a day of discussion, she accepted it.

Of course, Yeonsu did not leave the White Knight Guild.

All existing activities will remain the same, but the only thing that will happen is that the headquarters of the activities will be moved here.

But that alone was enough to bring mental stability to the 2,000 residents staying at our shelter.

As if it was a lie, after she woke up, the Orc raids on our shelter also subsided.

It was around that time that the troops began to move back and forth over 1km.

Whenever Yeonsu had time, he would fly to their base and show mercy to the orcs by giving them rest.

I realized that Yeonsu’s attitude was more forward-thinking than I thought, and I placed one more condition.

[Take me with you when the gate closes.]

“······ Oh my god?! A skeleton that writes Hangul?!”

The look on Kang Kang-soo’s face when he saw the words on the note I held out was truly a sight to behold.

It was rare in her entire life to see such a surprised expression, and even thinking about it again makes her shoulders shake.

Anyway, I joined the gate closing team led by Kang Yeon-soo and Cha Mu-yeol.

“Me?”

“Just?”

Yeonhee decided to join flexibly depending on the situation at the shelter.

Yeon-soo didn’t tell others that he had subdued Maeng Seong-yong, who had gone crazy, but seeing as the other team members didn’t raise any big questions about me, it seemed like he had appealed to me that he was helpful in some way.

Cha Mu-yeol, Kang Yeon-soo, the barrier magicians and the supporters who support them. And me.

Of course, just because a team is created doesn’t mean it will start working right away.

The memory of being treated harshly by Maeng Seong-yong still shackled their steps.

“Before we begin planning to close the gate, I have a few questions.”

Cha Mu-yeol looks around Yeon-hee’s room again.

Our house underwent a complete renovation.

All the collapsed walls were blown down, and it was reborn as a box-shaped space newly built with ‘stones of darkness’.

It goes without saying that this also had help from non-awakened people, including Director Park.

“The materials used in this building… And the amazing means of maintaining hygiene can be utilized in other bases as well?”

The war with the Orc army has already entered a long-term phase.

We have to survive somehow, and to do that, solving basic food, clothing, and shelter was a priority.

In that respect, our shelter had quite ideal conditions.

It is surrounded by a river to the north and a low-level dungeon inhabited by edible monsters to the east, south, and west.

In addition, the distance to the major bases of the large guilds concentrated in Seoul was close, and it was also advantageous to retreat via the main road if necessary.

However, other than the location conditions, the decisive factor was the existence of [Border Sanctuary].

“It cannot be used. Unless there is someone with the same ability… I already told you that.”

After hearing Kang Yeon-soo’s answer, Mu-yeol glanced at Yeon-hee and nodded.

Yeon-su knows from Yeon-hee that it is a miracle that only she can perform this amazing ability, but she says that she must not tell others about it.

“Because superpowers that even I can’t handle may be targeting Yeonhee. A summoner who can summon the highest level of air defense facilities? The strongest people in the world will be drooling.”

“Tick, tick, tick.”

Both Yeonhee and I agreed with her opinion

“I know that this is a miracle caused by Hunter Lee Yeonhee’s high-ranking summons. But aren’t the number of summons continuing to increase? I asked because I thought there might be other possibilities. Let’s not be too sensitive.”

“This side is bound to be sensitive as well. The maximum number of people that can be accommodated right now is around 3,000. It is already more than 70% full, and with the internet becoming active again, refugees are continuing to pour in.”

It’s a bit of a strange conversation flow.

Kang Yeon-soo is the representative of the White Knight Guild, and Cha Mu-yeol is an executive-level member of the same guild.

The idea that such training would take the lead for the benefit of our shelter was a picture that was difficult to understand for those who did not know the inside story.

But Cha Mu-yeol quietly nodded and showed that he understood everything.

“Then, let’s talk about closing the gate in earnest-“

“No, shouldn’t we first analyze the cause of the failure?”

“It’s not a failure. Only we succeeded. You have to speak clearly-“

The barrier magicians who had been quiet got angry and came forward.

They still seemed to be carrying the excitement of closing the gate in their hearts.

It must be acknowledged.

As many as two gates were closed.

If you think about the number of orcs pouring out of a single gate, no matter how you praise their achievements, there will be no shortage.

“On a Mahayana level, I think it is appropriate to reveal the secret techniques of the late Hunter Geum Jae-hyeon. Also, the supply and demand of cardinite and the recipe for the alchemist’s elixir.”

The important hidden agenda of this meeting was whether to disclose several hidden secrets, including the method of closing the gate.

Common sense suggests that for the survival of humanity, it would be right to disclose it transparently and inform people around the world, but the attendees at the meeting seemed to have a slightly different opinion.

“If you proceed without skilled barrier magicians, it may lead to side effects-“

“No, that’s something you can handle.”

“What you’re saying is that we just want to make public the research we’ve devoted our whole lives to. Do you think we can easily receive it? The president is also inside the belly of a monster, so who can force us to do that?”

“VIP isn’t officially dead yet.”

“I heard the gate opened at the Blue House? Dozens of chimeras with teeth or cavities attacked? That’s bad luck. Would you have survived that?”

“That can’t be possible, since everyone knows what kind of people the VIP security guard is made up of.”

“Isn’t the hotline broken on the first day because an Orc war general stronger than the Chimera appeared?”

‘Hmm… I feel dizzy.’

I took out a notebook from subspace and revealed the alchemist’s recipe that I had written down in advance.

Of course, this recipe is ‘Kilbad’s’ production method, and even if you follow it exactly, it will not be the ‘Alchemist’s Elixir that Touches Death’ that I created.

Nevertheless, the effect will be certain.

“Ohhh?! Is this the alchemist’s elixir recipe?”

As I used telekinesis to levitate the paper in the air, silence fell over the conference space, filled with only the sounds of taking pictures and writing.

“What about the recipe for the herbal medicine pill? I heard you have to take it together for it to be effective?”

“That is at the discretion of the Ilseom Guild.”

Where Cha Mu-yeol’s gaze was directed, a bald-headed man dressed as a monk sat calmly and received the sudden attention.

Doyeon of Ilseom Guild.

He is a person who is evaluated as the next most talented person in the guild after ‘Hyeon Il-hwan.

“We also disclose everything. However, there is a condition.”

“I will do whatever is possible.”

“First of all, it’s about supplies-“

After listening to Doyeon’s story, Ilseom Guild had also established a base where the main camp was.

If you only think about defending against monsters, the location is better than our shelter.

However, there were difficulties in food supply and, crucially, Ilseom was divided into two factions and the civil war was not yet over.

“Isn’t this the time for a family fight? Why on earth are you doing this? Joong-gil just left it alone?”

From a third party’s perspective, it was a very leisurely group.

If you see him doing this while blocking the orcs, you can see that his abilities are really good.

“···’Geomsin’is currently having difficulty in his activities. Please give us some strength. He will have the strength to stop Hyun Joong-seop from running wild.”

Hyun Joong-seop.

Hyun Jung-gil’s younger brother, called Geomsin.

The moment his name came out of Doyeon’s mouth without a title, I was immediately struck by what kind of state Ilseom was in.

The conclusion didn’t take long.

If Ilseom’s base on the outskirts of Seoul collapses, it will also deal a blow to the center of Seoul, which is already barely able to block it.

It would be beneficial in many ways to provide moderate support and allow Ilseom to continue to act as a shield.

Recipe for elixir and herbal medicine pill.

And the story of releasing the supply of cardinite was also concluded.

Even barrier magicians can no longer just hold cards.

“It takes this much resources to close one gate?”

“The technique is surprisingly not complicated…”

“Well, in the end, it’s based on quantity, right?”

“No… No. If you try it yourself, you will understand, but it is like maintaining balance on a well-forged blade. It should not be taken lightly.”

The barrier magicians shared the method of closing the gate, but were confident that they were the only ones who could do it.

“Well… We are detecting disturbing movements on our side.”

While the main agenda was being passed with moderate exchange, an A-class hunter who had not uttered a word opened his mouth.

“Oh wow, where are you in the guild?”

“My name is Manor Guild Hong Soon-won.”

“Ah, that’s right. What do you mean by disturbing movement?”

The deputy guild leader of the Manor Guild, which is considered the best force in the city where Cha Jin-hyuk is located.

‘A place more than three times larger than Cheonsudan. If you look at its size alone, it’s comparable to the Guardian Guild.’

From noble mtl dot come

However, everyone reacted indifferently, as if he was not a person worthy of interest among the hunters belonging to the five major guilds.

“A force calling for independence has emerged.”

“··· Self-reliance? What do you mean?”

“This is a group that claims that the destruction of this world has been decided, so we must go beyond the gate and leave in search of a new home. In fact, it is a new religious group. They have not taken any radical actions yet, but the speed at which their power is increasing is astounding.”＜ Br＞

────?!

‘What is that again?’

The Blue Eyes organization alone gives me a headache, but another religious group has appeared?

‘With Nam Yong-seok’s black religion disappearing, will other religions proliferate?’

It is not the law of preservation of evil, and there is no real answer in this crazy world.

“That’s crazy. Non-awakened people can’t even enter the dungeon?”

“In fact, I would say it is an awakeningist group.”

“That’s not necessarily true. I guess it’s a side effect of the evolution tree spreading…”

The Hunter of the Manor Guild said that, ironically, the religious group called ‘The Dependent’, which advocates ‘self-reliance’, claims that even non-awakened people can safely enter the dungeon.

The low-level dungeon where we supply shelter food is probably the destination they are moving to.
