Chapter 182: Everyone’s Strongest Sword (2)

《Father, what are you doing? Clench your teeth and run!》

The urgent instruction conveyed through ‘Wave’ last night.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

No one knew exactly what the situation was, but everyone knew about the strange operation led by Jeong Yeongwoo to lure Japanese and Chinese people into the disaster and rescue them again.

Anyone in the Seoul area would know about the Strongest Sword.

So everyone became simultaneously afraid and curious about the dungeon space.

Something dangerous happened last night, but in the end, didn’t both Jeong Yeongwoo and his father come back safely?

And above all.

‘Jeong Yeongwoo will never die.’

This fact was deeply ingrained in everyone’s minds.

So who should form the recommended ‘2-person, 1-team’ advised by the council that first introduced the reset?

It was undoubtedly Jeong Yeongwoo07, who is currently serving as the active Joseon’s Strongest Sword and concurrently serving as the Gangnam’s Strongest Sword.

“What are you planning to do today?”

Finally, Songpa’s Strongest Sword, Oh Yeonhee, asked Yeongwoo on behalf of the gathered Strongest Swords.

And in the meantime, the elevator was descending back to the first floor.

Other Strongest Swords who arrived a step late had called the elevator from the lobby floor.

“Well... Even though something needs to be discussed to some extent, since everyone seems to have gathered here, should we advance the meeting time?”

As Yeongwoo spoke, seeing Seongbuk’s Strongest Sword who appeared through the stairs again, Oh Yeonhee spoke openly.

“It seems like everyone is thinking the same thing based on the situation, but let me speak first.”

Then, clutching the hilt of her sword with her right hand, she said.

“Please include Songpa in Yeongwoo’s team.”

At that, at once, Yongsan, Dongjak, and Seongbuk stood up.

“No, what do you mean?”

“Well... Since it’s an adjacent area to Gangnam, wouldn’t Yeongwoo naturally pay attention to it without you saying so?”

“Isn’t it right to prioritize areas far from Gangnam first? They will suffer the most damage, won’t they?”

The only one keeping silent in this place was Seocho’s Strongest Sword, Choi Namhee.

“......”

However, that didn’t mean she was just keeping quiet to maintain appearances.

‘No matter how much Jeong Yeongwoo is a monster, as a human, he can’t bend his arms inwardly. So, he won’t be able to help everyone.’

So the solution she thought of was.

‘The fortunate thing is that Gangnam and Seocho are geographically adjacent. So....’

To confront today’s mutants first and, if it doesn’t work out, flee to the neighboring neighborhood, Gangnam.

In other words, it was a plan to forcibly draw Jeong Yeongwoo’s intervention.

‘There might be civilian casualties in the process... But still, it’s much better than losing to the mutants.’

The fact that the area where the Strongest Sword lost to the mutants became a complete ruin could be clearly understood by looking at the now completely devastated Gwangjin-gu.

Ding!

Finally, as the arrival sound echoed from the elevator, this time, Dongdaemun’s Strongest Sword Jang Jeongho and Gangdong’s Strongest Sword Kim Juwoo appeared.

Then.

“Ha, fuck.”

Seeing the Strongest Swords who were already crowded, they chuckled.

Especially Jang Jeongho had dared to engage in a power struggle with Yeongwoo in their first encounter.

As much as he was such a person, he came to break his own pride....

‘Oh, they’re all the same bastards.’

As Jang Jeongho entered the corridor with a face as if he had eaten a bug, the Strongest Swords who were already there laughed and made remarks one by one.

“Isn’t the formal greeting a bit excessive?”

“Shouldn’t the people in the back stand by the emergency exit?”

And amusingly, Mapo’s Strongest Sword and Gwanak’s Strongest Sword Jo Sangik appeared through the stairs.

“Oh my.”

As soon as he entered the corridor, Jo Sangik briefly summarized the current situation.

He even wore a suit.

Although he was originally a person who cared about his appearance.

“Is everything alright? There was a bit of a commotion last night, wasn’t there?”

Eventually, Gwanak’s Strongest Sword, Jo Sangik, asked a meaningful question.

So Yeongwoo thought for a while.

‘Unless the high-risk mutants only fall in Gangnam, I can’t prevent damage whether we draw lots or I support the nearby areas first.’

Then what should he do?

He had overcome many obstacles so far, but this was the first time he faced a situation where the solution was ambiguous.

‘Actually, it’s simple as long as I do my job and don’t care whether they succeed or fail....’

In his frustrated mind, Yeongwoo suddenly came up with a solution that was not a solution.

“But why do I have to go and help?”

“...Excuse me?”

“Why all of a sudden...?”

At the sudden remark from the Strongest Sword of Joseon, everyone wore expressions as if they were having a nightmare.

At that moment, Yeongwoo refined his words and spoke again.

“Oh, I phrased that strangely. It’s not that I’ll be moving, but rather, you all can come to me, right?”

“......?”

The Strongest Swords still looked puzzled.

Then Oh Yeonhee from Songpa looked at Yeongwoo with an incredulous gaze.

“So, the person who needs help should directly come to Yeongwoo, right? With the mutants following behind.”

“Yes. That’s right. Even if we can’t defeat the dragon, everyone here has the ability to provoke it and bring it here.”

“Well, that’s...”

“Um...”

The Strongest Swords were speechless and just exchanged glances.

It wasn’t a completely unreasonable plan, but it was a strange plan indeed, much like Jeong Yeongwoo.

“But... if we lure the dragon across the city, wouldn’t there be tremendous civilian casualties?”

One of the Strongest Swords raised a fairly realistic question.

However,

“Anyway, since we have enough time to prepare now, the residents can evacuate in advance. Even if we suffer some damage, it won’t be worse than leaving the mutants unattended in the middle of the city.”

Yeongwoo also pondered and proposed the plan.

“......”

It was a statement that seemed to make sense no matter how you looked at it.

So, no one could refute it.

Then, this time, Dongdaemun’s Strongest Sword, Jang Jeongho, doubted Yeongwoo’s ability to carry out the mission.

“Even if we lure and bring the mutants, there will be more than ten of them... Are you saying you’ll deal with all those mutants?”

“Are ten or twenty of you coming? Anyway, it doesn’t matter. The more enemies there are, the stronger I become.”

When Yeongwoo said this, no one could make a weak argument anymore.

If they didn’t have confidence in themselves to stop the mutants by forming a team with the Strongest Swords from neighboring areas, they had to go to Jeong Yeongwoo themselves and request salvation by luring the mutants.

“If there are no objections, I understand that we’ll meet again around one o’clock. I’ll clean up Gangnam and be in Gwangjin-gu, so bring the dragon or whatever there.”

Interestingly, Gwangjin-gu has been so useful for two days already.

In any case, at the proposal of Yeongwoo, who was a top-notch human with confidence, all the Strongest Swords started to buzz.

“So, if that operation really succeeds, what about compensation for the mutants?”

“Oh, I didn’t mention it.”

Since it was a problem that had to be addressed, Yeongwoo waited and then gave an answer.

“All the spheres are mine. And I plan to bestow a golden rain on the area where the mutants are dealt with that day.”

“......!”

Most of the people present understood what Yeongwoo meant by ‘golden rain.’

Giving 30,000 karma to all residents in the area.

However, Yeongwoo’s purpose was not simply to provide a large amount of karma.

“When the golden rain is given, an enormous amount of karma will accumulate in each area, right? I don’t need much, so please collect ten million karma per area for the areas I helped.”

“Are you really saying that you are going to collect protection money from us?”

Daring to demand protection fees from the Strongest Swords of Seoul.

It was an unprecedented event.

However, Yeongwoo did not back down in the face of dozens of angry glares; instead, he raised his hand to his waistband and revealed Bastard.

“Oh... It’s not a protection fee. It’s the value of your lives. Do you understand?”
