The Crazy Demigod Returns - The Crazy Demigod Returns chapter 97
assignment
The New World wanted to make the entire Gangseo a complete nation.
Ultimately, the goal was to swallow Seoul and transform it into a pre-modern powerhouse.
After taking over the airport after the disaster, they were busy cleaning up the area around Bucheon and Gimpo, starting with Gangseo-gu.
Due to the environment, the spread of the news was relatively slow, and it was a new Korea that was gaining power at a crazy speed as if it had been written on something, so it happened like this.
There was no contact, no conversation. The movement that Shin Korea showed not long ago was clearly a precursor to an invasion full of enemies.
So, the New World side immediately sent a contact to the government forces stuck in Yeouido. that was just a few days ago.
“sh*t… Things would be a little better if their forces hit from behind… .”
New World’s actions over the past 8 months focused on killing all the awakened forces in Gangseo who would take a different route and gathering civilians to make it a nation.
I don’t know what they did, but they managed to unite the three districts without any bloodshed, and it was inevitable that they would be pushed back by Shin Korea, which boasts a huge number of people.
They couldn’t fill the area of Magok Station right away, and the number of them, who were packed across the river, seemed to be tens of thousands.
“Sibeol… It’s completely bean sprouts… .”
In order to overcome the situation, the help of the Yeouido guys is desperately needed.
I couldn’t help but swear.
“Anyway, the fight will end at the high level, but… .”
The damage received as the head count is reduced cannot be ignored.
Quality and quantity must be met at the same time to become a dominant force.
Awakeners of the 4th rank or lower would die enough from the power firearms they gathered from Yeouido like rats, and the pro-government awakeners, including the military, were also power that could not be ignored.
If Yeouido accepted New World’s proposal to make Seoul into a two-tier system by attacking from both sides, the situation could have been finished with some damage.
That is, unless the new Korea intends to destroy it.
A few days ago, a guild led by a high-ranking Awakener left as a contact point.
The fact that an answer that could have come in a few hours is delayed this much proves that the conversation is not progressing properly.
“Or you’re seasoning…” .”
“Director!”
As the predecessor of the gate industry cartel, New World is called by the company’s rank system.
One of his subordinates rushed over and called him.
“What!”
“The Great Lakes Guild has arrived!”
“The Great Lakes have arrived?”
Director Koh’s expression brightened noticeably as he watched the battle from the control center.
If it was the Daeho Guild, it was because it was the contact person who left for Yeouido to request support.
“Where are you now!”
“This is the B gate!”
There was no way that a high-ranking Awakener could not enter the target because he was afraid of the roadless environment or the river.
I don’t know why the new Korea side is gathering like dogs near Magok Station, but there is no problem with the members returning.
When he arrived at Gate B after receiving the report from his subordinates, the members of the Daeho Guild, who looked like they had suffered quite a bit, were quenching their thirst with water.
Contrary to expectations, however, the expression of the Daeho guild leader in the middle could not be said to be good even with empty words.
Isa Ko asked, approaching him, trying to erase the rising anxiety.
“Oh, how was it?”
“ah… Mr Go. that is… .”
“What!”
At the pressing words, the hesitant Daeho Guildmaster continued with a dark expression on his face.
“For the time being… I will keep an eye on the situation.”
“The situation… watch? These crazy bastards… .”
It was the worst answer out of the many expected scenarios.
It was best to help right away, and the most important thing was to keep them in check. Because refusing at all was the worst of the bad things.
The inside was clearly drawn.
“Are you saying we want to see each other lose weight… .”
It was a well-known fact that Yeouido forces claiming to be the self-proclaimed government were still bewildered.
Even though the world was like this, they were still thinking that they were something, talking bullsh*t about martial law and enactment of laws.
Rather, it could have been that the majority of the leaders were senile old men, not Awoken ones, that made this decision.
anyway it is Isn’t this an idiot-like choice beyond an idiot?
“Sibaal-!”
Director Go, who made a noise once, spoke without even looking at the subordinate who was with him.
“Whoa… Look up and look up.”
Here, too, there were noblemen who received reports and gave orders from a safe place near the airport. It was a hundred times better staffing than Yeouido.
The wires are still stuck. The enemies were not even approaching the nearest station, let alone Gimpo Airport.
A proper war hadn’t even started, so I had to do something.
Either run away or die anyway. Because it was one of them.
The Gimpo Airport Control Center climbed back up after coming out of the room.
The war situation, which seemed to be in a lull or not, was still going on.
* * *
The National Assembly building in Yeouido, where the Daeho Guild from the New World left.
The reason why the former government forces did not move even though they stayed here for several days and persuaded them was immediately revealed.
click-
A large meeting room in the Capitol.
The one who opened the door and appeared was Baek Kun-wu with a calm expression.
“Good idea. The decision took longer than I thought.”
President, Prime Minister, Minister, and high-ranking officials. At the words of Paik Geon-wu, who were now called ex-professionals, everyone just shed awkward laughter.
“ha ha ha… I wonder if this should be popping champagne, but unfortunately the situation is not going well.”
Words of hospitality that are not like the Prime Minister’s hospitality.
Her demeanor was clearly one of delight, but she did not hide her timidity.
Others have generally had similar reactions.
Seeing this, Baek Kun-wu’s expression was still blunt and calm.
Because I couldn’t understand why they reacted this way.
“I know you’re not in a relationship, so you don’t have to say hello.”
The reason why Paik Kun-woo is in the National Assembly building in Yeouido, not the battlefield in Gimpo. To find out why the Daeho Guild had gone back without any harvest, they had to go back a month.
“Isn’t it politics that yesterday’s enemies become today’s friends?”
“hahahaha, that’s right. And we are definitely not the government exercising the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea. You’ll find out someday that it’s normal behavior… .”
“politics? sovereignty? government?”
At the words that were spit out with a cold gaze, government officials who had been chattering coughed.
“Kh, hmm… .”
“Does a gang of thugs who can’t even function properly and go wild over martial law and laws that no one will know about, and even extort food from the citizens around them, have the right to say such a word?”
The government has been doing all sorts of shoveling right after the disaster.
They were about to take action months before they were sure things had calmed down.
As always, the voice of catching the clouds was put forward as a justification, but to say the conclusion, considering the current situation, it will gradually expand the jurisdiction centered on Yeouido and collect taxes.
It was, of course, an excuse and bullsh*t to say that it was protection, relief work, and maintenance of the government.
The target is, of course, only ordinary citizens.
“Hey, are you a thug?”
“If the government is to be maintained, of course, it is necessary to secure tax revenue… .”
“Seeing you still say those things, I must have lost my mind.”
Paik Geon-wu cut off his words as if he was noisy at the various reactions of being angry or making excuses.
“There is no more Korea. Government is all the more your delusion. I would have said it from the moment we first met.”
Money has become a piece of paper, and it is a world where there is not even a substance that can be used as currency yet.
It was a tax and robbing daily necessities was an act that was far from the norm and out of common sense.
The Yeouido faction insisted on legitimacy just for the reason that many former heads of government gathered there.
There was no way people would react to the stupid things they did.
Even those who initially responded that good is good started to reject it one by one after realizing the reality.
It was natural. It was the reality of ordinary citizens right now that they couldn’t even buy food or self-sufficiency, and there was no reason to bring food to those who couldn’t do their job even though they were in a hurry to clean their hungry stomachs.
Therefore, there was no way that Yeouido, where hundreds of thousands of people gathered for just the pretext of legitimacy, could function properly.
The members were politicians who had yet to put down their business cards, their trumpeters, and military personnel.
Inside Yeouido Island, which is filled with buildings and asphalt, there was no way to self-sufficient food other than hunting the rare mutant creatures.
As the situation continued, they eventually crossed the line.
The use of force against ordinary people.
And when Paik Geon-wu, who was devouring all of Seoul at the time, blocked it, the unpleasant first meeting took place.
“Once again, Korea has been ruined for a long time. This is also a land without an owner in the place called by that name in the past, and you are just a group of humans occupying it.”
Except for Paik Kun-woo, there are only a few awakened people in the 5th rank, who were members of the presidential security team.
“Because I am stronger than anyone here, and Shin Korea can wipe out this place in Yeouido right away… Can I take yours?”
There was no one with a big liver who could protest against the words he spat out with cold eyes. Even if I had that kind of courage, I wouldn’t have had anything to say.
“Prime Minister. no… Mr Park Gyu-tae Would you like to pay me that handsome tax?”
“Oh, no… !”
When he took off the title of Prime Minister, which he had been given at least in the past few meetings, and asked himself harshly, he, who until recently was no different from the second person in the country, lowered his head in a pitiful way.
“I don’t think that’s what the Prime Minister meant.”
In the end, former President Park Jae-yeol, who had been quiet, started to mediate.
Or, because he was like a fox, he could have intervened while keeping his mouth shut in anticipation of this situation.
“We have no intention of arguing with Shin Korea. So take your anger away.”
He seemed calm and relaxed, but Park Jae-yeol felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat. It was a world where the words of the man in front of me could be fully realized in reality.
‘I was complacent.’
Just because they used Yeouido Island as their territory didn’t mean they wouldn’t go outside.
The existing areas of activity include Yeongdeungpo, Gwanak, Geumcheon, and Dongjak.
Hunting mutant creatures and recapturing a large pantry were the main objectives.
After enacting the law to secure tax revenue internally, it was added to send military troops to rob people of food legally.
Then, when the daily necessities called face washing were not easily collected, the scope was subtly extended to Banpo and Seocho, Paik’s domains.
There were no borders, no signs, no declarations, so I didn’t even know it was territory at the time.
That was exactly what caused him to touch the sleeping lion’s nose hair.
“Yeouido, that is why it is called Yeouido Island. If we guarantee the autonomy of this place, we won’t be sending troops to Gangseo. As Paik Kun-woo said… Although we are mimicking the government, it is not of such a quality that we are sympathetic to their behavior.”
When legitimacy and legitimacy disappeared, most of the people here were mere ordinary people.
In order not to do that, Yeouido Island had to be fully preserved, and at least it was a possibility to promote the future.
It was better to cooperate with the quiet lion of Gangnam than the mad dog of Gangseo.
‘Currently, the author’s attitude is unconditionally the answer.’
Paik Kun-wu has a lot to say, but as if he didn’t bother to say it, he turned his head and looked out the window of the Capitol without replying.
After a while, the words that came out of his mouth were clear warnings, not agreements or opinions.
