Chapter 58: One Month Later
Lets go a little further.
Kim Doha and the cameraman walked through the corridor of the officetel, stepping over the dismembered zombies.
As they moved forward, violently pulsating blood vessels appeared on the ceiling of the corridor, resembling earthworms.
Kim Doha pointed at the ceilings blood vessels and spoke.
These are the blood vessels stretching out from the nucleus of the rift, the gochi. If we follow them, we will find the gochi.
The cameraman briefly zoomed in to show the blood vessels and then followed Kim Doha, who was moving ahead.
Following the path of the ceilings blood vessels and climbing the stairs, they found a massive gochi in the middle of the way to the upper floor.
Thump-thump-thump-thump
It was of a tremendous size that could comfortably accommodate two adult men, and thick blood vessels protruded from it, pulsating like a heart.
This is the gochi. If we defeat this guy, we can exit the rift.
Kim Doha drew his sword without hesitation and slashed the gochi.
Screeeeech!
A spine-chilling scream came from the gochi.
Simultaneously, a crimson wind swept them back into the original room of the officetel.
The world, once filled with red as if under a filter, was back to normal.
Shining in natural colors, the world made the viewers feel as if their eyes were clearing.
Srrrng-
With a stylish motion, Kim Doha sheathed the sword he had used to slay the gochi.
He waved his hand with a smile.
Thats it for the rift raid strategy. I hope everyone can safely close the rift. Good luck.
The video ended like that.
Kim Doha did not particularly try to show off.
The fact that he had rolled around on the floor, doing his best while fighting zombies, was proof of that.
However, the effect of the Heavenly Blessing that made him shine brightly in the crimson world and the graceful appearance of the glowing blade synergized to make him look like a hero straight out of myth.
The reactions of those who saw the video were explosive.
-Crazy LOLLLLLL
-What? Why so cool?
-Wow LOLLLLLL, he's fighting so romantically...
-He just wiped out five mutant zombies by himself LOLLLLLL.
-Their skin is so tough, but he just sliced them as if it were nothing LOLLLLLLL
-Did they script this with the zombies? When the doors opened on both sides of the corridor, and the mutant zombies came out, I got serious chills LOLLLL
For real, LOL, but he handled it so well...
He rolled between the zombies. LOL, such skill.
Doesn't feel like he's overly strong, but he's just good at fighting LOL
The first comments to pour in were mostly those expressing admiration.
The impression that the video gave of Kim Doha was so strong that people were overwhelmed and left comments.
And then, the next wave of comments began
-I thought he'd be really strong since he's ranked #1, but he's not that much?
-How did he solo close a D-rank if he's like this? It would be different if 10 attacked at once.
-Seeing him roll to dodge mutant zombie attacks, he honestly doesn't feel that strong...
These were the not as impressive as I thought? type of comments.
In fact, this was also a positive sign. It meant that the impression Han Miin intended had been received.
For a minority of powerful ability users, especially those within the top 100 ranks, this video felt like it was truly worthy of the number 1 spot.
Among those with a competitive spirit, they would soon ignite a fire in their eyes and look to find and seal the rifts.
In the end, this was a good thing.
Of course, Ciel still didnt smile much.
The barrier surrounding the land of hope that enveloped D-Mart had gradually expanded, now covering a much larger area compared to the beginning.
D-Marts expansion had even slightly included the neighboring building.
Thanks to this, the construction work on the nearby officetels had almost reached the final stage.
The nearby survivors had all been rescued, so it was now time to consider moving on to the next neighborhood if they continued the rescue work.
Every time people saw Baek Jihun, they were amazed at how quickly his abilities were developing.
The days when the Land of Hope expanded were, of course, the days when I had intense sex with Baek Seonah and Jinah, but that was obviously a secret.
Over the past month, my primary task has been sealing the rifts.
Riding Ciel, I quickly found the rifts and mobilized Serena to seal them in one fell swoop.
The highest level of the rifts we had found so far was a Class C, which required fighting against 30 mutant zombies and nearly an army of hundreds of regular zombies.
Class D, with 10 mutant zombies, seemed suddenly easier in comparison.
If this was the trend, then how many zombies would come out in Class B and Class A?
But at least against a Class C, the White Knight Serena was a cheat code.
She single-handedly massacred 30 mutant zombies.
It was an expected outcome.
The mutant zombies couldnt even make a scratch on the White Knights armor, and the blessed Zweihander of the White Knight cut through the zombies as smoothly as pudding.
After sealing the Class C rift, a thought came to me.
If there are rifts above Class B, I must find and seal them, even if they are far away.
Class C already involved an army of zombies; what would happen if a Class B or higher rift opened?
The annihilation of nearby survivor groups would be a given, and it was certain that zombies would spread to other areas.
In other words, Class B and above would be disasters that everyone would have to combine forces to stop.
So, I gave a warning to the community in advance.
If a rift of Class B or higher was found, we needed to form a team of strong ability users to seal it and to not touch it recklessly but report it to the community.
Fortunately, there had been no news of Class B or higher being found yet.
It had been about a month since I started sealing the rifts.
Serena, Ciel, and I. The three of us roamed various regions, sealing dozens of rifts.
And, of course, all of these contributions were credited to me.
As a result
Ranking.
Ding-!
