SSS-Rank Mechanic Player - SSS-Rank Mechanic Player chapter 72
The ship was completely new with a fresh paint finish.
“Who is it?”
Taejeong was a bit nervous.
But he soon shook it off and started moving slowly.
The weather in Jeju was not very good.
Rain pouring down like poles and a dark cloudy sky.
Fortunately, there was no lightning strike.
“It’s completely destroyed here too.”
Like other failed welfare services, Jeju Island was also in a state of being devastated.
Since it had been neglected for more than 100 years, it was natural.
Nonetheless, there were still some buildings that looked intact.
Stone-walled houses and faded roofs, which are now rarely found.
It was a typical rural village scene.
Moving a little further, the area presumed to be the city center appeared.
Overgrown grasses and unknown trees on the half-destroyed road.
Once a city, this place has been transformed into a nature-friendly one.
“Where is this?”
-This is interlocking. This is where Jeju City Hall used to be located.
“Is City Hall the same as the Seoul Management Office?”
– If you look at it in a broad concept, you’re right. Do you see the group of Kamuras swarming in the sky on the right?
“Those birds over there?”
– Right below that was the airport. Until the middle of the 5th industry, it was the most popular airport used by Koreans.
“okay? Come to think of it, I remember what I learned at a glance. From the end of the 5th, it was closed due to the commercialization of flying machines.”
-That’s right. The military has been commercialized since the beginning of the 5th and civilian industries in the 6th. And at this point, modern physical science has advanced beyond recognition. Space travel, which had been staying at the level of the solar system, has changed to the extent that interstellar travel is possible. Humans call this point the breaking point of technology.
“It’s a breaking point… But why did all those things disappear? It is said that everything disappeared at one hour and the world changed. Is this possible?”
-Sorry, but I can’t give you an answer to that question.
“I thought so. So what era are we living in now? Is it the beginning of the 5th?”
-The standard is not clear, but it seems to be about the end of the 4th.
“Fourth round. The Stone Age has come. Well, it’s a thousand years and a hundred years… … .”
It’s been a while since I talked to Gerard and moved on.
Finally, the majestic Hallasan Mountain came into view in the distance.
I’m trying to get right to normal.
wheein-!
A gust of wind blew and the new model began to shake randomly.
“Suddenly, what kind of wind… … .”
I immediately tried to escape by increasing the output.
However, the wind is so strong that it just blows left and right, and I can’t control it properly.
Eventually, he had no choice but to end the flight and get down to the ground.
And the familiar writing you see.
[Hallasan National Park Management Office] (970m)
“970 m. Not bad.”
Looking at the writing on the stone tablet, it seemed to be about the middle point.
Since the summit where Baeknokdam is located is 1,950m, it means that it is halfway up.
After replacing the blaster with an exoskeleton leg, Taejeong started climbing the mountain.
* * *
Hallasan Baeknokdam.
A group of people gathered at Baeknokdam, which was half filled with water and looked mysterious.
The group, estimated at about 30 people, were all wearing fancy equipment, and they gave off an aura that seemed like they would do it one by one.
magic hunter.
They were foreign hunters with Japanese nationality.
Among them, this party, which was swollen as it was, was a team that was rumored to have a good reputation even within the archipelago.
Okinawa 3, Senkaku 1, Marado 1, Tsushima 2.
They picked only the islands that everyone avoided and went hunting, and they took three boats.
Fortunately, all returned alive without a single casualty.
So, in these worlds, they were called immortal.
Their leader, Ikujo, was a level 720 fighter.
“Is everyone ready?”
When he asked the gathered hunters, four hunters who looked like wizards nodded.
“We are done. What about the burial team?”
“You can go in right now.”
While the team members were on standby, Ikujou folded his arms and looked at the cave right in front of him.
He found this place three years ago in the summer.
He went on an expedition to Jeju Island every year and was collecting information about all of Jeju, and the place he found was the underground cave of Baeknokdam.
The first time he explored this place, he couldn’t find anything special.
It was just a dungeon with slightly stronger monsters.
However, during the third hunt, he found out that there was a barrier to seal in this place.
Afterwards, after researching in various fields, he was able to solve the barrier, and through that, he was able to encounter a monster he had never seen before.
They were a rare species.
A monster that is not registered in the World Encyclopedia.
They gave them the name Okane.
This is because the magic crystal drop rate for each monster reached 100%.
The problem is that the strength of each individual is second to none.
So they had to go over the gobi of death several times.
Then, what I thought was burial.
Collapse the cave itself, killing them all at once.
It was a very good idea.
There are a total of five caves in Baeknokdam.
They had just installed auxiliary magic circles in the four burrows, and now only the main burrows were left.
“Then let’s go in.”
At Ikujo’s words, the hunters began to enter the cave one by one.
Did you walk about 100 meters like that?
“Embed number 1, start.”
At the direction of the leader of the burial team, the burying team, which was preparing, began to drive the prepared magic stone into the ceiling.
Following that, an explosion magic circle was installed, and additional range magic was sealed.
The reason for the additional magic was simple.
You have to attack to get items and experience, but if you just destroy the cave, there is a high probability that you won’t get any results because you won’t be targeted.
The work went very smoothly.
There have already been several repetitions of training in their home country, and there was no particular threat until they reached the main square.
The magic circles were evenly installed at intervals of about 100 meters.
About 15 magic circles and magic stones were added like that, and they were finally in the main square, the deepest part.
Then, unlike before, a huge space was revealed, and the appearance of a large entrance came into view in front.
“Check the barriers and gather everyone.”
Following Ikujou’s instructions, the two hunters at the forefront headed for a large, dark cave.
Then he wanted to touch something in the air, and then he waved his hand and shouted.
“I’m stuck!”
“great. Bring the outer loop connected to the other oyster.”
At his words, this time a hunter from the rear came with a nameplate in his hand.
It was a remote communication device that could be activated immediately by injecting mana.
Before that, he called the second-ranked masseuse in the team to be in charge of disabling the barrier.
“How long will it take?”
“It will take a while since there are more sealing pillars than other places, but it will be over in 30 minutes. Rather, why are you leaving the exit side empty? It seems there are still some magic stones left.”
“I can’t control the cancellation of the magic circle. It’s obvious that everything will explode at once, but then it won’t be blocked before the monster crawls out. We should fill the aisle as much as possible and send it away.”
“Five. After all, you are the ace of our team. It’s nice to see you sometimes.”
“Son, you say all sorts of things you know. Oh yeah. You must have buried the detonator well, right?”
“don’t worry. I put it in a conspicuous place.”
“What? Then, what if someone touches you?”
“who? Are you Korean guys? It’s been a while since they left them here. Have you seen it at least once in the past three years?”
“It’s not like that, but just in case… … .”
It was natural for Ikujou to be so anxious.
It was because if you had no luck, you could be trapped here and never get out.
As if knowing his concern, the masseuse tapped his arm and smiled.
“I’m not an idiot, would I have just buried it?”
“then?”
“Everything has been taken. I just hung up the Japanese flag.”
“Five. She is also a thorough masseuse. Certainly, if you hang the Japanese flag, they won’t be able to touch it carelessly.”
“Of course. If you touch the flag of the Empire of Japan, something big will happen that day. And I know because I have some friends in Korea, but Koreans hate hurting others extremely. It must have been an obvious release device. What crazy bastard would try to touch it? In particular, these Koreans are people who treat money as if it were toilet paper.”
“Ohh. I never thought I could penetrate that kind of psychology. Massage, a guy like you has a very sophisticated corner. Sometimes, the meticulousness of it gives me goosebumps.”
“Whoops. What have you got?”
* * *
Top of Hallasan Mountain.
“scent. Kill the scenery once, kill it. Go away from most dungeons, very.”
Taejeong, who succeeded in climbing the summit by making a path that did not exist, was able to capture the mysterious panoramic view of Baekrokdam.
A vivid crater that cannot be compared with a photo, and a thick cloud of clouds below the mountain.
It was so spectacular and magnificent that the legend that the ancestors drank and played was not a joke.
“This is where the word ‘one picture’ comes from.”
After admiring the scenery for a while, Taejeong realized what to do and came down to the crater.
Then, he carefully inspected his surroundings and entered into reasoning.
“They said it was in the depths of Baekrokdam. Are you talking about the inside of the lake?”
The quest didn’t explain exactly where it was.
It’s just that it’s a deep place.
Then, of course, the first place to search was the lake.
“This skill is also used here.”
Upon entering the lakeside, Taejeong immediately summoned the navigator.
Then he dived right in and started exploring.
Contrary to what I saw from the outside, the lake was shallower than I thought.
I heard that the depth is about 100 meters, but when I dived, it was not even half of that.
Of course, the search had to end in an instant.
“For now, it seems that there is nothing here. Then it means that there is something somewhere in this wide area.”
The area of u200bu200bthe crater is incredibly large compared to the lake.
I thought it would take quite a while to go through them all.
But just being alone didn’t mean there was a number.
Immediately into action, Taejeong started to stir up the grassy crater while operating the booster.
Did ten minutes pass like that?
I found a suspicious oyster on the outer wall on the opposite side of the lake.
“Are you here?”
It was such an odd place.
This was especially true for oysters that fell downwards.
Doesn’t it look like it was made to go down?
He pondered for a moment in front of him, and soon summoned the Night Tugyeong.
It was meant to be explored.
So carefully, I step inside.
I felt something above my head.
I just raise my head and check.
It’s really strange that a flag is planted in the eyes.
A flag with a red orb in the center on a pure white background.
It was the flag of neighboring Japan, no matter who could see it.
“what? Is that a flag?”
His hand reached for the flag.
