This Is Not a Game - This Is Not a Game chapter 147

struggle

Although his recent foreknowledge was wrong, the trust Bruce had built up over the years was not so shallow that it could be shaken by at least one failure.

“I do not guarantee. It’s not even a relaxed situation to worry about side effects in the first place. The frequency of opening portals is increasing, and the number and quality of monsters are increasing proportionally. No matter how severe the side effects of this drug are, they will be less than the damage caused by monsters.”

“If Bruce and Cassim say so.”

“Well, I can’t help it because there’s no other alternative.”

When Bruce stopped the start, other users also expressed their approval.

When everyone agreed, Yoosung opened his mouth with a satisfied smile.

“Then, shall we begin negotiating the price now?”

* * *

The competition to secure the drug ended surprisingly blandly.

The reason was the limitations of the drug’s performance.

It has an effect that is perfect for mass-producing talented people, but on the contrary, it can be said that it is everything.

I don’t know if it’s an elixir that gives you decades of internal energy immediately after taking it, or an elixir that gives you a special skill. Buying a drug with this effect for tens of thousands of won costs more harm than good.

In addition, the fact that the amount of medicine produced was much higher than expected, and Yoosung and the users were able to reach an amicable agreement.

“The price is 2 million won per bottle. Delivery time will proceed as written here. If you have any objections, please tell me now.”

“… … .”

“good.”

Yoosung came down from the podium with a satisfied smile.

With just the first transaction, they secured enough funds to cut the production period of the gynoid in half.

Considering the future sales volume, it should be able to cover not only the Gynoids but also the funds needed to remodel Dragonia.

‘What’s left is to wait? Once you figure out how much you can shorten the period… … .’

“for a moment.”

Yoosung, who was approaching Sophia, stopped at the voice behind him and turned around.

There was Isaac, who held out his hand with a bright smile.

“Come to think of it, I haven’t even properly said goodbye yet. formally introduced. It’s called Isaac Cloud. It’s the same user, so you can call me by my first name.”

A sweet smile and a friendly voice.

However, instead of holding Isaac’s hand, Yoosung looked into his eyes.

The face is smiling, but the eyes are not smiling at all.

In fact, even if it wasn’t for the eyes, I didn’t want to take Isaac’s outstretched hand.

‘Trying to sell something whose stability has not been verified, thinking about making money when the world is in danger, when do you start quarreling and pretending to be friendly?’

This is no ordinary handshake.

He’s clearly hiding something.

“Are you saying you don’t even want to shake hands with me?”

Yooseong narrowly opened his eyes at Isaac’s blatantly disappointed expression.

I don’t know what he’s going to do, but he can’t do anything dangerous in a place like this.

Judging that if he was going to do something really dangerous, other users would step in before the situation got serious, Yoosung reached out and grabbed Isaac’s hand and shook it up and down.

Amidst the strange tension flowing, Isaac’s mouth slowly opened.

“I saw a video that was active in the United States. I couldn’t believe it was someone who had been a user for less than a year.”

“I’m a bit on the fast side of growing up.”

“Growing up fast. Is that all?”

“Then what else could there be?”

“Well, I could have done something like manipulation. Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not talking about you, but TV stations and new tubers. I meant that I might have exaggerated my skills by editing the video more stimulatingly in order to increase the viewership rating or the number of views.”

He said so, but Isaac’s face was blatantly ridiculed, as if to say, ‘I know the truth.’

It’s an obvious provocation, but it’s just as effective.

If you just step away from here, other users will see you as a manipulator blinded by your reputation.

‘I don’t care how other people see me… … .’

It doesn’t fit with your personality to avoid the fight you’ve been walking on.

Yooseong, who organized his thoughts, spoke with a blatant sneer just like Isaac.

“Would you like to try it?”

“No, it’s not even necessary.”

“Don’t do that, check it out. I was just wondering how strong the other players were.”

“Hmm, is that so?”

Isaac immediately continued, as if he would not give him a chance to escape, with a look in his eyes that seemed to be caught well.

“Since there are people’s eyes, it’s a bit awkward to fight directly, but Kang Chang-seok’s shadow world has too many restrictions, so let’s try to fight as it is now.”

“good.”

Awesome!

As soon as Yooseong finished his words, the sound of bones twisting resonated.

Yoosung with a relaxed smile and Isaac with a faint expression on his face.

I could tell whose hand it was coming from just by looking at their faces.

Isaac’s lips twisted.

‘Look at this?’

I knew Yooseong’s muscular strength was exceptionally strong, but I didn’t know it would be this much.

I was expecting it to be in the early to mid-1000s, but at this level, I didn’t know that it would be in the late 1000s, or maybe close to the 2000s.

It is unbelievable that the strength of a user less than a year old.

But the bewilderment was only momentary.

‘It’s surprising to have this level of strength, but let’s do it anyway.’

Strength fighting isn’t my specialty, but that doesn’t mean I can’t do it.

In the first place, even though he knew that Meteor’s power was strong, he proposed a strength contest because he was sure that he could win.

His pure strength is in the mid-1,000 range, but if he uses the power of skills and items, his muscle strength can instantly rise to the upper 2,000 range.

‘I can easily subdue a monkey that goes wild without even knowing the subject.’

A cruel smile crept across Isaac’s lips.

Since the users were watching, I couldn’t cross the line, but I thought I’d let the bones go at least gold.

However, that confidence did not last long.

Kwajik!

A sound that can’t even be compared to before.

Isaac’s hand, twisted unsightly as if it had been put in a press, was red hot as if it were going to explode at any moment.

He didn’t groan, but his pale face told him how much pain Isaac was in.

On the other hand, Yooseong’s face was calm as if nothing had happened.

‘To be stupid.’

Currently, Yuseong’s strength is 3,561 points.

Even purely in terms of strength, it is more than 500 points higher than Isaac, but with the option of both arms of the Tyrant, up to 99% of the impact can be alleviated.

From the moment Isaac suggested a contest of strength, it was as if the match had already been decided.

‘Users are watching, so it’s about this… … yes?’

Yuseong, who was about to finish, stopped moving due to the magic power transmitted through his palms.

palms, arms, and shoulders.

Realizing that if he stays like this, his magical power will spread throughout his body, Yuseong hurriedly draws out his magical power and energy from his heart and short circuit to push away Isaac’s magical power.

‘Did this bastard turn?’

A small tendon sprouted from Yoosung’s forehead.

I don’t know why he did this, but Isaac crossed the line.

Meteor, with his eyes half-opened, operated a non-geukil one-way ball, converting magical power and spiritual power into inner air, and then discharged it with all his might.

A total of 2,100 points.

With the effect of 50% of the inner air power of the Mugeuk Ilwon Gong added, the inner air with a power of 3,150 points instantly drove away the mana that invaded the body and poured into Isaac’s body.

“Cuck!”

Isaac, who was shivering, fell to the floor in agony.

Isaac, who was bleeding from his mouth and nose, raised his head with a distorted expression.

Yuseong, who felt the unusual atmosphere, tried to step back, but Isaac moved even faster than him.

As soon as Isaac’s hand touched the scabbard hanging from his waist, a pure white flash fell towards the crown of the meteor.

An absolute speedy sword that is as fast as a beam of light.

But there were beings that moved faster than that.

“I think this is enough for a contest of strength.”

At some point, Bruce approached and grabbed Isaac’s sword.

Isaac struggled to get the sword out, but it didn’t even budge, as if it were held firmly together by the black glue held between his thumb and forefinger.

“Let go! Let go of this! this dirty… … .”

“Do you want to die?”

As soon as a shaky voice escaped from Bruce’s mouth, Isaac trembled as if struck by lightning.

There was a moment of silence, and Isaac, who had returned to his youthful appearance from a savage face, opened his mouth, wiping away the blood with a handkerchief he had pulled out from somewhere.

“Hmmmm, sorry. It wasn’t intentional. As you know, Bruce, am I not a bit hot-tempered?”

“Not intentionally. Well, hit that.”

“Han Yuseong. apologize to you too I was just going to test it out a little bit, but I think I was overly enthusiastic about it.”

“I don’t know if pulling out a knife and splitting a person’s head can be called compassionate, but hot-tempered, it could be. I will forgive you.”

“… … Thank you.”

Isaac walked out of the conference room without looking back.

His face was not thick enough to remain in front of others even after showing the ugliness of being pushed by someone who had been a user for less than a year.

After confirming that Isaac was leaving, Yooseong let out a light sigh to avoid being noticed by others.

He pretended to be calm on the outside, but the feeling of exhaustion was not light, perhaps because he poured out all his energy at once.

‘This is triple (三中).’

Instantaneous output was above himself, but Isaac was superior in all other areas.

Even though he poured 3,150 points of internal energy, it did not give a big blow, and the sword he threw while injured was so frightening that he had a momentary premonition of death.

Isaac might think he lost, but Meteor thought the opposite.

‘It’s not some kind of boy’s cartoon, how can a stronger guy appear as if he’s been waiting for it to become a little stronger?’

The self-confidence that he had gained from his recent successes hit rock bottom in an instant.

However, Yoosung was able to recover his energy immediately.

He may be pushed aside by personal force, but he has Gynoid and Dragonia.

If those two things are completed, about three times is enough to deal with.

“thank you. If it wasn’t for Bruce… … .”

bang!

Isaac appeared through the cracked open door.

Twisted eyebrows and straight lips.

While everyone was nervous about the unusual atmosphere, Isaac’s mouth, which had been tightly closed, opened.

“I need help.”

“help? Did you wear any internal injuries?”

“Ha, turn on your smartphone right now and go to any site.”

“What the hell is going on… … .”

The moment I turned on my smartphone and accessed the portal site, an article that appeared at the top caught my eye.

Yooseong inadvertently read the article aloud at the shocking content.

“… … An all-out invasion of Europe?”
