#Episode 256, Worries behind the scenes
The world was shocked.
From the appearance of the apocalyptic monster, every channel in almost every country reported breaking news.
The emergency system was put into effect regardless of day or night.
The living disaster was no longer the sad news of a distant neighbor, but a crisis that had not yet arrived.
That’s how the world watched Han Seong-jun’s eccentricities and the bizarre interactions between monsters.
-What the… F*ck… .
Many anchors had fatal broadcasting accidents, but viewers were not aware of them.
This is because the visual impact was more intense.
People couldn’t even easily organize their feelings.
What is clear is that a hero has once again saved the world,
There were too many questions that followed.
What kind of beings were those who were summoned?
What it means for group actions like rituals.
Also, what is the identity of the energy that was absorbed as if it were an offering?
How was it possible to make hundreds of thousands of monsters bite each other with just one shout?
-Han Seong-jun didn’t seem like he was going crazy? Did you see the eyes? I was laughing to myself and it gave me goosebumps.
-ㄹㅇ I felt uneasy just looking at the screen. It seems like I’m having a hard time learning the black magic series.
-That’s black magic.
-That’s right, what’s right? What are you doing?
-People who were suddenly summoned. That’s just human sacrifice.
-Han Seongjun did not kill, but decided to ‘live’ on his own. There is also an analysis that it is just an illusion because there is no trace left after death.
-Gaesol haha The giant died at the end and the monsters bitten each other, right? Is it all an illusion?
-That’s an illusion system.
-Why are you using the illusion of a group dying for no reason, you idiot?
-It’s mulberry tea.
-lol
-Again.. I’m screwed. Anyway, the Earth Defense Force bastards in the corner of the room. You don’t have to worry about anything. Anyway, you saved the world. Just look at the facts. It’s a bit weird.
-Of course you should be worried. I don’t know what will happen if Han Seongjun suddenly decides to have a bad mind.
-So you’re saying that we should at least burn them at the stake in advance? Take action. Is Han Seong-jun confused about whether it is a monster or a person?
All uncertain speculations gathered together and a heated debate broke out.
The good news is that the visible flow of demonic energy was very small, so the scene itself in the video was a much purified version.
Of course, the shock of the superhumans at the scene, who felt the energy directly, was indescribable.
The leader of the death squad, Casas, was no different.
No, he was blaming himself in addition to the shock others were receiving.
Anyway, anything that I haven’t heard directly from the Chairman is just speculation.
‘Others may not know, but I should have trusted the Chairman unconditionally… .’
When I’m in a relationship, I’m always criticized for being insensitive,
Casas was better at catching the same man’s eyes than anyone else.
When he made eye contact with the chairman for a moment, he expressed a one-dimensional sentiment that he could not fully understand.
unrest,
doubt… .
The worst imagination bloomed from doubt.
A slight contempt born of the imagination.
At that moment, Casas felt that the chairman’s rather fearful eyes flickered for a moment.
And oops.
I felt sorry for that moment.
‘… ‘Why did I do that?’
“ha… .”
After that, you never looked at me again… .
But the past cannot be undone.
They had to move again.
The giant gathered a considerable range of monsters,
Hundreds of thousands were separated from this place by the appearance of one hero,
This is because many areas were still being trampled by monsters far away.
Casas shook his head to shake off the bitter memories, and then shouted with magic.
“Everyone probably has a lot of questions, but the fight is not over yet. What matters now is that we are alive and that there are still a lot of monsters left. What happened today was when I returned home safely. At that point, it’s not too late to talk about it. “March right away!”
***
“March—!”
Bouncy!
The death squad began to move, banging on shields and the like in various places.
Gu Chang-su was also swept up in the group of death-defying troops.
With Han Seong-jun also leaving, Gu Chang-soo had no intention of participating in the death squad, but Gu Chang-soo lost his focus and walked along with the person in front of him, lost in thought.
Everyone was surprised, but
It would have been nothing compared to the shock of the players who were familiar with Legion Commander Ellahan.
‘I’d rather be convinced if I were the owner of the system. What is this… .’
You can attempt to attack Ellahan only after those who have fully farmed until the end of Chapter 4 have set spec limits and created a team of 40 or more people with voice chat.
It was a boss that could only be conquered if a group of secondary players who did not enter the engineering team blocked some of the elite monsters that flocked to it.
‘But how… ‘You can tear that guy to death by yourself, right?’
The unknown summoning skill used by Han Seong-jun did not come as a surprise to Gu Chang-soo, who was still accustomed to ‘game-style’ thinking.
In fact, no matter how advanced you are or how ranked you are, how can there really be any old people in such a massive game that is only 2 years old?
I simply mastered the training route and farming method faster than others, but there were endless talents and characteristics that I had not yet seen.
Also, Han Seongjun was an NPC.
There was no information that something similar to General Han Sang-cheol’s talent had been discovered, so I had no idea whether there would be a separate type of talent that only certain NPCs could acquire.
The problem is that he is a character who did not even exist in the main story.
Until now, I thought it was a change that was possible because the reality of Lost Korea was going as it should.
Now that I look at it, I think that the very existence of ‘him’ may have been an inflection point.
I am afraid because it is such a vague entity, but I am also excited because it is an unknown entity.
Gu Chang-su lifted his tiptoes and looked around.
‘also… !’
There seemed to be about a dozen people with light green character names.
Would the player have really joined the deadly force to save the country and the NPC?
Seongjun Han must have already attracted the attention of players.
And because of what happened today, it will only get worse in the future.
It’s just that I was late in understanding it.
Gu Changsu smiled triumphantly.
Among the players, he was probably the first to start increasing intimacy with Han Seong-jun.
But I had no intention of letting down my guard.
‘Let’s just stay still…’ . ‘Where should I start?’
More information was needed about Han Seong-jun.
Gu Chang-soo first slowed down his steps to get out of the death camp.
As he was reversing the movement of the formation, someone grabbed his shoulder and he half-drawn his dagger reflexively.
Sreung!
I was wary of whether it was one of the players I had just seen, but when I turned around, I realized that it was an NPC that Gu Chang-soo knew well.
‘Park Tae-kwang… ?’
“hey. “You were the one who threw Han Seongjun when he came earlier, right?”
Gu Chang-soo didn’t know what to say, so he kept his mouth shut for now.
“… … .”
And I got really nervous.
Although he is a character inferior to Kwon Ha-seon in terms of class, we have already experienced that Kwon Ha-seon has a power that surpasses that of the original work.
Taekwang Park asked again.
“How do you two know each other?”
This time, Gu Chang-soo couldn’t keep his mouth shut, so he asked again.
“What kind of relationship are you there?” .”
“ah… I’m friendly. “He is officially an assistant to the head of the Political Affairs Headquarters.”
There was a slight feeling of condescension, but there was no way for Gu Chang-soo to know what it was without watching the news.
The important thing is that you are friends.
‘What kind of character was Park Tae-kwang… ?’
Gu Chang-su looked back at his memories and cautiously opened his mouth.
“Then maybe… , Taekwang Park?”
“uh… ? “Did you hear what I said to Han Seongjun?”
“yes. He’s my best friend whom I rely on a lot… .”
“Best friend? haha! “He says that?”
“… Isn’t it?”
“Nope. Right. Haha!”
Gu Chang-su laughed along and thought.
If all humans first met and formed relationships virtually, interpersonal relationships wouldn’t be so difficult.
***
Han Sang-cheol and his gang, who took control of the guard headquarters less than half a day after infiltrating-
Afterwards, over the course of about two days, they attacked major corps, headquarters, the Ministry of National Defense, and the Ministry of National Security, and eliminated all officers and generals above the rank of colonel.
Although North Korea’s superhuman strength was by no means poor, the combination of Han Sang-cheol and the Red Square monsters was truly invincible.
However, simple control and rule were separate issues.
North Korea, faced with a sudden upheaval, was in a state of temporary suspension.
The headquarters building in Pyongyang, where only the interior has been somewhat cleaned up.
A little while ago, I watched the disaster situation unfolding in Korea on video with Hansang Railway executives.
Immediately after my son disappeared from the screen,
Han Sang-cheol stood up alone and approached the conference room window, leaving behind his subordinates who could not easily speak to him.
‘her… , they treated the demon guy like a subordinate… .’
Han Sang-cheol lowered his head with a bitter expression.
I thought you were just taking that guy and taking care of him.
Even though he was only at a low level, he was the head of a Japanese family.
If I had known that would be the case, I would have at least told you in advance.
It already happened… .
More than that, I couldn’t understand how my son kept following a path I hadn’t even told him about.
“Whoa… .”
Receiving the offering from the demon family itself was not something to worry about.
… … What an encouraging thing.
but.
‘That’s only when you can handle it on your own.’
Moreover, until we met in front of the Blue House, my son did not contain any demonic energy.
If he had accumulated that much magical power in that short of time, something must have gone wrong.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t a problem I could help with.
Of course, advice was available.
Because it’s something he himself once experienced.
But for the same reason, I knew that advice wouldn’t be of much help.
‘I’d be lucky if something went wrong with my body… .’
There are many ways to protect the body, but it is not easy to overcome the magic that is wrapped around the mind.
“… Are you okay?”
Gong Ha-gyun approached from behind and examined Han Sang-cheol’s feelings.
The image of Im Tae-seong gesturing to stop him was also reflected in the glass.
When Han Sang-cheol was trying to control his emotions or was lost in thought, their actions were always divided into two parts.
Han Sang-cheol smiled and turned around.
“What do you mean? “Is there anything I wouldn’t be okay with?”
Gong Ha-gyun was embarrassed and stuttered.
“No, that’s true, but… .”
In fact, looking at the results alone, it was something to be proud of.
The general’s son saved thousands of people in desperate times and was not even injured.
But somehow it was shocking,
When I put my mind to it as a parent, it was a worrying scene.
“You’re a grown adult. “If she wasn’t hurt, her father wouldn’t care about her.”
“yes. I’m glad you’re safe. I was worried when I saw the scene where Charybdis was harpooned in one blow… . I think it’s really great. “Your son.”
Han Sang-cheol’s henchmen here, including Gong Ha-gyun and Lim Tae-seong, knew of the existence of Charybdis from the beginning, so the scale of estimation was bound to be more certain.
“… it’s okay. “Now stop talking about him.”
Contrary to his indifferent words, the reason why Han Sang-cheol told him not to mention it further was because thinking about it over and over again would only increase unanswered worries.
Han Sang-cheol, who was heading back to his seat, winced and looked back at the road window.
“!”
“Why are you doing that?”
Despite Gong Ha-gyun’s question, Han Sang-cheol walked closer to the window without answering.
Although his subordinates could not see it, Han Sang-cheol could not hide his happy smile as he watched the dot gradually grow larger in the distant sky.
Whether it helps or not,
First of all, it was because of the child who came to visit his father.
