Chapter 39: Homunculus (1)
It was the third day after Junwoo disappeared.
There were stories about Junwoo on TV.
"It turns out that Dark Star's garrison in Gwanggyo Mountain is for Dark Star Guild Master Linqiao's quest. We don't know what kind of quest it is, but we'll let you know as soon as we get news."
Due to the rumors in the media, people were conscious of the Dark Star's stationing in Gwanggyo Mountain, both internally and externally, because of the guild master's quest.
"In the process, Dark Star killed producer Lee Junwoo and 11 other people in Gwanggyo Mountain for private security. The body of producer Lee Junwoo was hard to recognize due to the flames. The rest of the bodies were returned to the bosom of the bereaved family. Two bodyguards of the survivor, Junwoo Lee, are currently being investigated by the Daehan Guild."
The news reported that Junwoo had passed away.
"Darkstar expressed an unusual apology immediately after causing the incident. It is said that nothing will happen in Korea, and he will return quietly as soon as Guild Master Linqiao's quest is finished."
Another channel was talking about the kidnapping of Junwoo.
"Some say that the Dark Star came to Gwanggyo Mountain to kidnap producer Lee Junwoo. What do you think?"
"If Lewis was kidnapped. There's no reason for Dark Stars to be stationed there. They'd have left Korea already if they kidnapped them because Korea is also a dangerous area, right? It's hard to be a dark star if you cooperate in Japan and China. For them, Yunnan is actually the safest place. There are over 10 million criminals out there. And isn't Lewis already dead?"
The kidnapping and the Dark Star's presence seemed to be something different.
Had they been kidnapped, Darkstar should have hurriedly returned to Yunnan.
But they stayed in the same place for three days.
Choi Jin-man, who was watching TV, seemed to understand how the current situation was going.
Choi Jin-man was a member of the Mantis Guild who helped Junwoo catch the goblin leader.
In his opinion, just as the goblin leader had disappeared, it was clear that Junwoo had also disappeared.
Jinman Choi drew a picture in his head.
Dark Star came to kidnap Junwoo, and Junwoo, who was in crisis, disappeared.
"at that time Something has succeeded."
It was clear that he had learned a skill or gained something from the leader.
Choi Jin-man killed the leader and thought of Junwoo's face with a light smile.
"certainly alive."
Choi Jin-man hurriedly went to his guild Boogilma and explained what happened to Junwoo.
"So Did you learn the disappearing skill of the goblin leader?"
"I don't know if that's a skill, but definitely It will be related. The goblin leader had been hiding in another space for a certain time. That's what Junwoo Lee is doing now."
"Hiding in another space If the goblin leader hid, did he come out two or three days later?"
"Sometimes, it comes out in one day at the earliest."
"Seeing that there is no news for the third day Well, let's say you learned the disappearing skill of the goblin leader. When do you think Lee Junwoo will come out?"
"Perhaps when the food runs out."
"Then it will be at most two months. Well ."
Boogilma opened her mouth while thinking about it.
"By the way, If everything you say is true. But it's not good for him to tell him this."
"Yeah?"
Boogilma said while pointing at the mountain drawn on the map.
"This is where Junwoo Lee disappeared, but if they find out why he disappeared, will he withdraw?"
"I won't withdraw, but Shouldn't we announce that Junwoo Lee is alive there and push them away before Junwoo Lee comes out?"
"Who pushes it out?"
"Yeah ."
Choi Jin-man was speechless.
"Even from above, the point is to avoid friction. Nationally, clashes with them are costly, so you fight the biggest criminal group in Asia to save someone alive or dead? That's not meant to be "The power loss is too great."
"But he will be waiting ."
"Let's wait too. I hope they go quietly That's the best."
Jinman Choi looked at Boogilma with a sad face.
"Is there no other way?"
"no. It's not just about dealing with Dark Stars. The Busan and Gwangju Smashsters have also started encamping on Mt. Gwanggyo, and followers of the Dark Star from Yunnan, China, are also gathering. If this goes on, an all-out war will be a state of subversion. It should be avoided."
"ha all right."
"Don't rush your name for nothing because of a small relationship. Stay still, Jin Man-ah. It's best to just hope that they will go away from Korea calmly."
"Yeah brother. Let's go."
"Yeah, go. Don't tell anyone what's going on today, and if you have kids you want to join, join them too."
"Yes, I will."
As Jinman Choi left the room, Boogilma picked up the phone and dialed in.
"Brother, there is good information. Is it true?"
"What are you talking about out of the blue?"
"Probably the information that Dark Star will like very much."
"What?"
"It's Lee Junwoo."
The Mantis Guild Boogilma told the Smashster boss in Busan what he had heard from Jinman Choi.
And the boss immediately delivered it to Darkstar.
"Thank you, brother."
"If everything goes well, please take a look behind us. It's hard to sell drugs in Busan these days."
"Don't worry about that. And you know it's a secret, right?"
"Is Junwoo Lee alive? don't worry."
Kwon Do-hyeok announced the fact to Boogilma with a satisfied smile.
Takane looked at the calendar and spoke.
"It will be a long game. Any news from the Master?"
"I still have to tell you. Even though youtube."
Hyeyeon Jeong produced an animation.
A video was uploaded to the Lewis website.
The video started with an explanation of the goblin leader.
The Garak Trico Goblin Leader disappeared when his stamina ran out.
It was a fact known to those who knew.
Junwoo caught the goblin leader in the video and got a scroll of disappearing items from the goblin.
Junwoo, who was being produced in the underground workshop, scrolled through the Dark Star's raid and disappeared somewhere.
The video ended with Junwoo squatting in a small space waiting for people to come.
[Chance Kim: Wow, if it's true, we should get rid of the Dark Stars.]
[asdf2: Cheers!]
The comments were favorable, but there was no significant change.
Neither the government nor Korea tried to move, dismissing it as a conspiracy theory.
With a grudge against Dark Star, the Chinese and Japanese guilds expressed their intention to cooperate, but Daehan only delayed the deadline.

Late in the evening, on the 11th day after Junwoo had disappeared, a light flashed from the building in front of Mt. Gwanggyo.
The gathered light quickly turned into a massive fireball.
And it flew towards Gwanggyosan as it was.
It was a blazing fireball that could be seen with the naked eye even from a distance.
A fireball with a diameter of 10m flew toward Mt. Gwanggyo. At that moment, a star the size of a small bowling ball fled and collided.
Pop!
An explosion occurred, and remnants of the flame fell to the ground.
Watching the fireworks fall was quite spectacular.
The person who blew the flames was a female student in a Bundang Upbringing School uniform.
A smile was drawn on the pretty face of the girl.
"Awesome. Who is this Mana?"
The girl who was sitting with me hurriedly said:
"This is not the time to admire. You must run away."
"This is more than I thought. You mean there are 7 more monsters like that, right?"
"Let's run away. It's scary."
"I don't think Daehan is embarrassed for nothing."
"Oh, little!"
"I got it."
The two girls hurriedly ran to the rear.
At the sound of the explosion, Japanese Yuma rubbed her sleepy eyes and came out the door.
"Are you finally going to have a fight?"
"Go in and go to sleep."
"Is it over already?"
"yes."
Takane climbed up the building and looked in the direction of the fireball.
Zhao Ming said, standing next to Takane.
"Can I follow you? sister."
"Be patient. Clear mana is like a child."
"After all, young children are not cheap. I can't stand it next time, what should I do? sister."
"Be patient. This is the enemy camp. I will stop this kind of prank, so I won't come out of bed."
"after ."
Zhao Ming sighed and went downstairs. She was upset when she woke up to an attack while sleeping.

It was the 14th day after I had been sent from the warehouse.
Junwoo looked down at the woman's body made of iron on the workbench.
Everything was designed to perfection as much as the time was put in.
[Are you sure you want to complete the Eumeria blueprint?]
"Yeah."
In response to Junwoo's answer, light radiated from Eumeria's body.
Additional materials in Junwoo's items poured out and permeated into Eumeria's body.
His white skin was covered with iron.
His blonde hair grew, and his eyes had long inner eyebrows.
A woman's body made of iron was wholly transformed into a woman's body.
[The degree of completion of this blueprint is 99.8%.]
Outwardly, he looked like a perfect human being.
Although his eyes were closed, he had an oriental and beautiful appearance.
Then Eumeria slowly opened her eyes.
It had bright brown eyes.
Eumeria smiled brightly when she saw Junwoo looking down at her.
"Hello, Master."
It was the birth of the first homunculus created by Junwoo.
