< Episode 151 >
A huge door that even looks desolate without any decorations.
On the tightly sealed door, there was just one number, 0, written in large letters, but no one knew what it meant.
“…Area 0.”
A sigh flowed from someone’s mouth, and there were no lawmakers who did not share the emotion behind those words.
The source and center of Luna.
No matter how proud they are of their power, they cannot recklessly approach District 0.
No, with a few exceptions, most of them were the first to approach Area 0.
“I didn’t know you would come here.”
As someone mumbled, it was because District 0 was recognized as a sanctuary even in Luna.
Rumors abound.
Starting with the rumor that there is a residence of the mayor whose identity is veiled, there is also a story that there is a huge artificial intelligence supporting Luna, and a story that the ancient phantom beast is sealed and transmits power, and so on.
Numerous rumors have been expanded and produced, and rumors about District 0 have long been a mystery to Luna as a whole.
At that point, you’ll want to check it out, so those with power and power secretly tried to approach, but no one was allowed to approach Area 0.
Even who had the authority was a thorough secret, and now a fragment of that secret is about to be revealed.
“There are a lot of rumors.”
With a light word, Byron stepped forward and stood on one side of the door, and the Chairman stepped out on the other side.
Uh.
The door cried as the two of them took their seats on opposite sides, and one side of the ceiling opened and light poured in.
– Check access rights. commander, chief of staff.
The expression of the lawmakers strangely changed at the extremely hard sound of the machine.
“Think about what Luna’s foundation was originally. How could this part not be corrected?”
Someone asked at the words of Byron.
“…are Area 0 recognizing this entire Luna as a military base?”
His eyes flashing with intelligence vomited a question, and upon hearing that, Byron laughed.
“Good insight. Yes, it is.”
Giing.
The light disappeared before I knew it and the door I identified began to slowly open with a huge driving sound.
“Area 0 recognizes Luna as a military base, not a city. You know what that means even if you don’t tell me.”
“I guess it means that the city does not fear the sacrifice of its citizens.”
The faces of the lawmakers hardened all at once.
I don’t know what exactly is in Area 0, but just because the Oracle exists, there will be something comparable to it.
Almost nothing remains of the knowledge of the Great War, but there are still some things that have been handed down roughly, one of which is the personality of a base controller.
The base was controlled by excellent artificial intelligence, and the soldiers focused on combat.
However, if such artificial intelligence is still alive and recognizes the city of Luna as a military installation, what will happen in case of emergency?
The Great War was a time when each other did not cover the means and methods to kill each other, and there were no restrictions on artificial intelligence.
only efficiency.
Efficiency, which does not cover any means and methods to obliterate even one enemy, was the greatest value of artificial intelligence.
However, if such artificial intelligence is connected to Luna, it will not fear the sacrifice of its citizens to defeat the enemy.
No matter how much Luna is a place where people’s lives are taken lightly, it is natural that a city can be established only when citizens exist.
“It’s okay if a few hundred people die, but…”
“······If the scale of the Great War is as it has been handed down, the units of the numbers must be quite different. They say they will replace any number of allies in order to win.”
And the city councilors will be no exception to that sacrifice.
The sense of superiority that they are special, the fear that even they cannot do anything about it, the obsession with power, the longing for life, and so on.
All kinds of emotions came out, and at that appearance, Byron made a disgusted expression.
These people are the highest level of Luna.
The city, which was built one by one from the ruins with their own hands, continued to prosper, but if you ask if the process was entirely due to the power of Byron, it is not.
You cannot build a city on your own, and you have received countless help.
Byron’s cause to create the cradle of humanity that was driven to the brink of destruction and to prosper again was the sympathy of many people, and the surviving powerful people and forces did not hesitate to help Byron.
The skills and forces you have, and sometimes even your life.
All for the prosperity of mankind.
And such help has been passed on through generations, and most of the current city council members are the descendants of such people.
So time passed and Luna settled down and prospered, so Byron was able to shed a satisfied smile, but those who built the city like Byron did not remain.
All that remains are their descendants.
A lot of time passed and there were a lot of people who didn’t even know the face of Byron, but it was natural to pay for their efforts, and Byron was not a person who ignored causality.
A fair price was given, and the pride in blood and the mighty privilege in hand turned into greed at some point.
The noble ideals pursued by the ancestors were diluted, and only those who were full of greed remained.
The struggle and strife to hold a handful more power began, and Veyron, tired of the sight, chose to retire.
But the irony is.
Even in the midst of that, Luna continued to develop, and it rolled well without any problems.
Those who were full of greed became a form of checking each other and did not try unreasonable policies.
The city continued to expand, and there was still a strife between members of the council to take advantage of it, but that’s why Luna was able to develop in a balanced way.
It was an unexpected result for Byron, who was planning to wipe out all the lawmakers, and eventually Byron went into hiding.
‘But that’s it.’
Byron, who had lived through years that ordinary people could not even imagine, had some extraordinary talents, and through those talents, he foresaw misfortune and could no longer stay still.
The answer that Beyron had been thinking about was the Oracle.
Goo Goo Goo.
Looking at the huge door that was now wide open, Veyron, stroking his right arm, stepped forward.
“egg plant.”
I took a step towards the deep darkness that looked like the entrance to hell.
***
A large office with no decorations except for work, giving a stark feeling of desolation.
The panoramic view of Luna through the tempered glass that occupied the whole side was gorgeous, but the owner of the office had no time to pay attention to it.
There were dozens of holograms floating on top of the huge desk, and I was distracted just looking at them one by one and paying for them.
Uh.
Every time the hand of the man, Odin, passes by, the hologram document disappears and a new document emerges.
Odin’s ability to quickly process documents that even an elite businessman would get tired of is worthy of being a model for businessmen, but there were still too many types of documents.
Uh.
The god who gave him strength was supplying him with power endlessly, and the body that reached the level of a superman doesn’t know how to get tired, but mental fatigue is unavoidable.
“······after.”
Odin, who had been looking at the papers for a long time, sighed lightly and buried himself in a soft chair.
Click.
Odin took off his glasses and set them down on the desk, pressing his fingers gently to his temples.
“Too many. Although I brought it upon myself.”
As if he wouldn’t tolerate a short break, Odin, who had a tired expression on his face, smiled as he looked at the newly emerging documents.
Dynekov.
Luna is also one of the largest companies in the top five.
The business area was spread throughout Luna, and quite a few companies boasted a mighty prestige to the point of bowing their heads on their own, but in other words, there are four more companies the size of Dyne Corp.
They were constantly clashing for their own interests, and the strife between conglomerates transcends the common sense of ordinary people.
Injecting industrial espionage is basic, and terrorizing the other party’s business is just personnel.
In the shadows, a bloody bloody struggle was taking place every day, and if it really went wrong, they didn’t hesitate to mobilize a private army to wage a local war.
Since he was in charge of and running a department of such a large company, his authority was strong, but there was a lot of work.
“It’s okay up to that point.”
But Odin is an outstanding elite.
He was a talented person who rose to the top of a large company in a short period of time without any special foundation, and so far he has been able to handle his work without much difficulty.
In the meantime, leveling up and even running a guild, so Odin’s abilities are far beyond the common sense of ordinary people.
However, Odin had no choice but to stick out his tongue at the current situation.
perish with the player.
Due to the Hindel Bionic incident, the awareness of the player and the destruction that was revealed to the surface changed the game of Luna’s high-ranking officials, and in the end, Luna’s high-ranking officials had no choice but to reverse their previous decisions.
Players were no longer subject to oppression, and they were allowed to come up to the sun.
Although various restrictions are attached to it, it is a measure that is different from the change compared to hiding in the shadows without a single identity.
The players who had survived so far had finished adapting to Luna in their own way, so there was not much resistance.
I don’t know what it was like, but first of all, it showed the appearance of adapting to the order of the city, and that’s how the players started to move in earnest.
to prevent destruction.
Based on the knowledge the players had, they started attacking everything that had even the slightest doubt, and the Congress and the National Guard could feel that their decision was not wrong as they watched the things that were revealed.
The things hiding in Luna’s darkness were just as dangerous.
It was the first time I knew that there were so many secret societies working secretly in Luna, and I counted the number of talented people hiding themselves.
Ominous relics were destroyed or sealed, and innumerable sacrifices were made to defeat the demons that had almost been summoned in reality.
Naturally, the status of the players had to rise, and Odin was special among them.
He was a shaman who had reached the level of a superman, and those under his command were formidable.
Odin was able to put himself in the lead of the players as he wished, and was content with things going according to his plan, but he couldn’t help but add more work.
I want to jump out right now, remove destruction, level up, and build a feat, but I can’t get out of the office.
“······Still, the urgent thing is almost over.”
The hologram documents are terrifyingly emerging as if he can’t afford to take a break even for a moment, but most of the big issues have been resolved.
Soon the time will come when Odin can move in earnest, and then it won’t be difficult to outrun its competitors.
“after.”
Odin put his glasses back on with a light sigh and straightened his posture.
That time when I was going to continue my work again while staring at the documents like that.
Uh.
The terminal on the desk let out a short cry, and Odin, his eyes widened, reached out.
“What is it?”
– A guest has arrived.
“customer?”
– Fixer John Doe is requesting a meeting. What should I do?
“······Let it in.”
Odin’s face hardened at the sudden visit of an unexpected person.
