Apocalypse Needs Old People Episode 095

64. Daphne (5)

“What kind of person was your mother that she made a middle-aged dating simulation… … .”

I don’t know how that person got into that game and got possessed, so I have nothing to say.

‘It’s a strange thing.’

As far as I remember, he wasn’t interested in that kind of thing.

But Banggu Seok-yeo didn’t seem to doubt me anymore.

Even if he was a country that only opened its mouth to say nonsense, he seemed to think that he would not sell his mother out for something like this.

“Huh? Wait. You’re trying to conquer the illegitimate child right now.”

“yes.”

“No, then… that tomb… this… … .”

The corner lady looked shocked and horrified as she remembered whose grave I was digging up and who was standing there, and then she looked at me as if she realized something.

“That’s why I asked you last time if you knew Luna Moon’s face! The portrait really is your mother’s face. She kind of looks like you…?”

Suddenly, Banggu Seok-yeo tilted her head and said.

“But that’s strange. We’re not the main body, but the game karma. So how can you and Luna Moon look alike?”

“There’s nothing strange about it. I just used the kerma from the scan of my face to target the illegitimate child.”

Safe Zone Kerma is basically a system where you scan your face and then add various kermas on top of it.

There are many gamers in the world who find it annoying to change their faces, so surprisingly many players use their original faces.

Of course, it wasn’t because I was lazy, I just wrote it as it was because I had to do an oriental kerma for the bastard’s strategy.

When I conquer other areas other than the Illegitimate Child area, I have white hair and dark circles under my eyes… exactly the same kerma as the current Unicorn area player, and since that kerma is the most representative, other players will remember me by that face.

Now that I think about it, Korean players tend to mod their devices a lot.

The corner lady, who had probably been through a lot of trouble, was looking surprised.

“What? So, that’s the actual face right now?”

“however.”

“That’s ridiculous, to have that kind of face with your personality… It’s a real shame to waste your face.”

“… … .”

Doesn’t this kid even look in the mirror?

Even if I feel sorry for your face, your karma is a million times more painful.

While I was thinking about that, Banggu Seok Yeobo said something unexpectedly useful.

“Then I guess the Unicorn Zone impersonator is impersonating you because he copied your character.”

“hmm.”

Although that guy is not an impersonator but the real ‘me’, it is worth considering that he is also ‘me’ but possessed in a different karma than me.

Why are they both ‘me’ but their karma is different?

‘When I asked him if he was from a parallel universe, he avoided answering.’

In that case, the closest thing to the correct answer is ‘the parallel world me who picked a unicorn at a convenience store’.

But judging by the strange amount of information and number of titles.

And since you told me ‘I opened up more quickly than you’.

He is definitely not someone who was possessed in the same time zone as us.

But it doesn’t seem like he was possessed in the past like the minor players.

I have come to one conclusion.

‘This is not the first time.’

At least the dopamine addicts in the Unicorn Zone have played this game ‘more than once’.

So many titles and information.

This makes sense given the information we got from previous episodes.

Why are you acting like an adult alone, that guy and me?

I don’t know if there are two dopamine addicts existing at the same time.

Well, it’s not like I can figure it out just by thinking about it now.

‘In some ways, it’s a better thing.’

At least if the opponent is ‘me’, it will make me happier than other players.

I want to enjoy this world for a long time.

For that reason, it would be good to properly understand ‘why we were possessed’.

If there is a purpose for which we were captured, then isn’t it possible that when we achieve that goal, we will be returned to the real world?

Since what I want is an unlimited supply of dopamine, not a return to reality, I need to understand the ‘possession’ and be able to control it.

I think the ‘logout’ system exists for that purpose.

“Anyway, I’m going to check on my mother and your sister. I’m also going to try logging out.”

Then Banggu Seok Yeobo was startled.

“What do you mean you’re going to try to log out? Are you going to die?”

Now that I think about it, I explained the system opening rights and points to you guys just to show off that I did all this for you, but I never explained that my system was additionally opened and that there was a ‘logout’.

“There is a ‘logout’ in the system.”

“What?! My system doesn’t have that?”

“I have it in my system. I did something called an additional opening.”

“So that’s why you were able to open the system. Wow… We were both in the same situation, but why are you the only one standing out? Your physical strength as a former area conqueror is nowhere to be found.”

‘Come to think of it, that guy addicted to Pamin also said that I was faster than him… … .’

I think it’s because I started in the cola zone.

If you started in the Unicorn Zone or another zone, you wouldn’t have known Luna Moon’s true identity or that Daphne was a player.

If I hadn’t gotten Luna Moon’s ring, I wouldn’t have inherited the Snow Giant’s powers, and I wouldn’t have been able to persuade Shin Eun-jo.

‘I wonder if it’s a coincidence that I started in the cola district.’

It was my will that made me choose cola.

An inexplicable feeling of uneasiness remained somewhere.

For now, I guess I should finish talking about logging out.

“Anyway… the fact that ‘logout’ exists as a system means that ‘login’ is also possible. It’s definitely different from dying and returning to reality. It has to be different.”

“Should it be different?”

“I plan to come back once my questions about my mother are resolved.”

I thought that she might look at me strangely for thinking of returning to this world, but surprisingly, her face was calm.

“That’s… the same for me.”

“You too?”

“As I said, I want to live a long life.”

Oh… Now that I think about it, I said that if this guy was the main body, he wouldn’t have lived long.

“I want to return to this world as soon as I can confirm that my sister is safe. If it’s possible to return, I’m also in favor of logging out. How do I log out? Is it something I can do?”

“hmm.”

Because the system only says that all players must open the system for the logout function to be activated.

It was unclear whether the logout function was only available to players who had additional unlocks, or if it was a function that was open to all players once everyone had the system unlocked.

First, it would be faster to achieve the minimum condition for logging out, which is ‘opening the system for all players’, and then check how the logout is done.

“There are conditions for opening the logout system.”

“condition?”

“All players must open the system.”

“What? I don’t even know how many people are possessed… Is it possible to open them all? I heard that opening the system costs a lot of points or something.”

“So that’s what I’m saying.”

I held up two fingers to the corner lady.

“There are two ways to open the logout.”

“Two?”

“One is… … .”

He said, folding one of his outstretched fingers.

“I’m using other zone system open players. I wouldn’t have enough points if I did it alone.”

At those words, Banggu Seok-yeo crossed her arms as if she was thinking hard.

“I don’t know if Shinjo would cooperate, but I wonder if other zone players would want to log out after spending so many points. I know we have a purpose for returning to reality, but… I don’t think the game addicts who played in the safe zone would want to return to reality. Taejeong seems to like living here better, too.”

Taejung definitely said from the first time we met that he was glad that we could conquer this world together.

As I thought about it before, since it seemed like they only gathered those types of people and had them possessed, I didn’t think there would be many players who would cooperate with me in logging out.

Tibalom in the knife area or the dentist who doesn’t even know what this game is would probably be cooperative with me in getting back to reality.

“I do know a few players who might be willing to cooperate, although they aren’t many.”

“The points that can be used to purchase system opening rights are also created through additional openings.”

That’s right.

The problem, more than the points, is this additional opening.

I don’t even know how to do this additional opening.

I don’t know if I can help other players unlock more.

But fortunately, I had a second option in mind.

“If you don’t have enough points, you can try another method.”

“Is there another way? What is it?”

I said, folding my remaining fingers.

“Kill everyone except the system-opening players.”

“……huh?”

“If only the players with the system open remain, the logout will also open. Since all players have the system.”

“Why are your ideas so wicked?”

“I’m just being efficient.”

“Yeah, well… that might be faster than opening it up. As long as I’m safe, that’s fine.”

This guy is starting to think more and more like a sociopath.

“But how are you going to contact players from other areas?”

“The day you graduate from the military academy, you will be transferred to a different district.”

Then, Banggu Seok Yeo-bo opened her eyes wide.

“Are you going to… a different area?”

“There is no other way.”

“But, there are still 6 years left until I graduate from the military academy?!”

“I’ll go out after I grow up a little more. Going to another area would be completely different from how I’ve been in the Cola area so far. If we leave the area now, we don’t know how Shin Eun-jo will change.”

“ah…….”

Even if it’s not Shinjo, we don’t know what might happen while we’re out of the area.

Daphne died just today, and there was that bastard Radu who had tried to poison me not long ago, Meursault was unstable, and Anton had probably attempted suicide.

I had to stay in the area for a while because the NPCs might cause trouble.

And the difficulty level of our area is always low.

NPCs in other areas can be difficult to deal with on our own.

So, at least you should move after your body has grown to a certain extent.

Seventeen years old.

That will be the day we leave the area.

and…….

‘I guess I’ll have to open it now.’

When I open the system the message still flashes.

[There is 1 message from the game developer. Would you like to confirm it?]

Now I am ready to open this message.

As long as you know that either my mother or father is involved in game development.

I was confident that I wouldn’t be surprised if any message was left.

After sending Banggu Seok Yeo-bo back to her room, I opened the message.

Contrary to what I had expected, I couldn’t help but feel agitated.

As soon as I opened the message, a video appeared before my eyes.

At the top of the video, there was a title that read:

[Dopamine Addict 1st Play Highlight Video]

…no.

What the heck is this?
