sun spring water (1)
The 21st to 29th floors of the Tower of Trials are the realm of two great powers.
Empire and Moorim.
This means that only players with permission to move the floor from both factions can cross this floor and go to the 30th floor.
And of course .
Jinhyeok and the players belonging to the Goin Corporation were free to cross the floor free from that restriction.
Currently, in a secret underground bunker located in Washington, USA, players belonging to the Titan Guild were gathered.
"Whoa..."
"Hmm ."
A long sigh continued in the conference room.
Lying on a soft chair was a man with a strong body with long blonde hair.
It was 'Snyder', the leader of the internal attack team of the Titan Guild and an S ranker.
In addition, on the other side of the screen, rankers of Japan's 'Samurai' and China's new guild 'Chunhon' were seen, including the Olympus Guild, which suffered a major blow to its image due to the attack on the 20th floor.
Everyone was in the meeting to discuss an important matter.
Snyder broke the heavy atmosphere and opened his mouth.
"In the end, you need the permission of player Kang Jin-hyuk to climb the 20th floor safely."
Yes.
Each guild also wanted to monopolize the tower's various resources and numerous guilds.
faster than anyone else.
However, that dream had to be abandoned by a huge force called the Goin Corporation.
then .
The next best thing is to align with that force and aim for the position of the second person.
"It will be difficult to convince you with anything. If you have the right to go to the top of the tower, even if you give it a billion dollars, it will be a loss."
"Well, even if it were me, I wouldn't share it with anyone. Unless it's an idiot, anyone would."
Reading information is common sense among common sense.
Kang Jin-hyuk, who was no one else, could not have known that.
"Or, how about recognizing Goin Corporation as an equal relationship at the national level?"
Extraterritoriality and full autonomy.
In a word, we promise to treat them the same as the head of a country.
Due to their enormous capital and lobbying, the 7th guild already enjoyed such powers, but Jinhyeok, who was not so interested in power struggles outside the tower, didn't even care about such things.
"Certainly, that could be a bit glamorous."
"Because I can't stay in the tower forever."
Everyone nodded, saying it wasn't a bad suggestion.
After fighting in the tower, you must return to reality and lead a life outside the tower.
Although it is kimchi soup, in the distant future, all floors of the tower may be attacked.
Considering that time, the conditions raised by the 7th guild now would not be light at all.
Because it meant that an individual would have state-level power in his hands.
"Funny!"
As soon as the words were finished, someone interrupted.
Anger and jealousy were oozing from his hardened face.
Master of the Gandhara Guild.
'Nirasha'.
He is an Indian ranker who gave up everything to become stronger after being defeated by Jinhyeok in the Empire.
"Nirasha-san doesn't seem to like it."
"Of course! Everyone is bragging about that scumbag as if it were anything, but he's a complete scammer! Besides, what makes a guy who only knows how to hit other people in the back of the head because he's pretty? If you guys don't want to get big one after another, keep my words in mind. Sun."
Nirasha was nicknamed the Ice Witch because she was usually cool and cold.
By the way, I'm so excited that I don't even use my name.
It seems like a lot of stuff has piled up.
"I heard that India lost a lot of rankers, and that was true."
Yang Chi-an, who has been representing Cheon-hon, clicked his tongue.
"It's foolish to try to err on the side of personal feelings. In fact, how many times did player Jinhyuk Kang save us from a crisis? He is a benefactor, not a competition. He is a hero who gives grace."
Takeshi, a false prophet of the Samurai Guild, also defended Jinhyuk.
In fact, the biggest reason for holding this meeting was because of Takeshi's future poetry.
"In the future I saw, there must be player Jinhyuk Kang."
For the future of mankind.
If I had to pick just one person, it had to be Jinhyuk.
Takeshi drew the line on behalf of the samurai.
"Everyone is right. You can't give up the profit of the whole guild just because your guild is sad. We will proceed with the meeting with player Jinhyuk Kang as scheduled."
"Let's see. This decision. You will surely regret it."
Nirasha let out a cold smile.
"Regret? So, are you saying that taking that side is the way to not regret?"
Snyder asked, seemingly absurd.
"Well. You'll find out in a little while. Who was in the wrong line?"
'Apostle of Balance.'
'Thousands of ages', a combination of 'Hinduism' and 'Vedas' created by Shiva and other great divinities of India.
and.
One of the apostles they finally chose a few days ago was Nirasha.
"You are so proud that you were chosen by divinity. Even if you don't sarcastic, this work will be completed successfully.
At those words, everyone's eyes turned to one side.
One corner of the conference room.
A person with a slightly unique atmosphere was sitting there.
one at a time.
If Jinhyuk rejects this offer... .
Then you can use this card.
Three days have passed since the attack on the 20th floor was over.
The request from Ragnarok is to obtain materials to protect Yggdrasil.
Among them, Jinhyuk took on a special item called 'Sun Spring Water'.
"Hmm..."
Jinhyuk, who was walking along Seokchon Lake, stroked his chin.
It was good to enjoy the holidays outside the tower, but now that we are about to go to a troublesome place, there are many things to think about.
'I'll have to sort out the attack method first with a little bit of tension.'
The spring of the sun exists in the labyrinth located on the 23rd floor of the tower, and it was difficult to obtain the key to enter it.
Moreover, even if they succeeded in entering the interior, the gate guardian who guards the labyrinth also did not take damage unless it was a specific attack pattern.
'It means that Thor and Loki didn't entrust it to me for nothing.'
In the first place, the two didn't even know the exact location of the sun's spring water.
By the way, Yoosung Cheon, when is this idiot coming?
It's been an hour since I said that stray cats only feed me.
I wish I could have eaten something like this by hungry cats... .
But that's when I thought so.
Boo woo woo... kkiik.
The black Mercedes-Benz S-Class stopped next to Jinhyuk.
It was also equipped with bulletproof, and it was a special vehicle that looked unusual at first glance.
rumble!
When the door opened, a man with handsome blonde hair appeared.
It's a familiar face
Because I've already seen it several times through the media.
'Snyder' of the Titan Guild.
An S-class player with long-range sniper skills.
smile.
Snyder, who had a soft smile in the world, pulled out a business card from his pocket.
"Nice to meet you. Player Jinhyuk Kang, I belong to the American Titan Guild..."
"Videos from Bellemos Labyrinth. I enjoyed watching them. The ability to control boss monsters from a distance is really excellent."
" No, did you see that?"
Snyder put the business card back in with a humble face.
"Because I tend to carefully check the trends of the top rankers."
"It's really an honor. I never imagined that player Jinhyuk Kang would be interested. Haha. Am I just shrugging my shoulders?"
"So, what's going on with a large American guild so far?"
"that is ."
Snyder looked around.
It was so early that there weren't many people, but there were people jogging from dawn.
You run the risk of being noticed if you keep talking.
It's not anyone else, especially if it's Jinhyuk.
"Why don't we go somewhere else and talk? We've chartered a floor of the hotel."
"I'm sorry, but there is someone waiting. It's going to be difficult to leave."
"I can't help it. Then... I'll tell you the gist of it quickly."
After thinking for a moment, Snyder spoke quickly.
"I heard that the Goin Corporation currently has the authority to move the floor from the Empire and Moorim."
I knew it.
I thought I'd get the story out.
After all, it was only a matter of time before the large guilds came in contact with the 20th floor.
"If you want to pass through the upper floors you must be aware that the seeds are not eaten at any cost, right?"
"Anyway, would you have brought a penny from our side? If you give us what we want, Primary God, we will guarantee you a blank check, extraterritorial rights, and a visa that allows you to work freely in any country."
Snyder added a little bit more.
"If possible... it wouldn't be a bad idea to get citizenship from a powerful country that can contain player Jinhyuk Kang."
1st or 10th or 100th.
Simply write in numbers and submit, and they will be converted into dollars.
The other two powers were also too many privileges for an individual to have.
It is enough to take it without even thinking about it.
But.
That's a story for ordinary people anyway.
"Hmm. I don't care if it's money other than coins. And there won't be a force that can touch me right now, so the rest will be the same."
All of those things felt meaningless to Jinhyuk.
"Ha, but...!"
"For example, if I commit a crime in the United States can you arrest me there?"
Short and light questions.
However, the weight of the question was never light.
Even if the Titan Guild's power is mobilized, will they be able to subdue the monster in front of them?
No, not just the Titan Guild, but even if all the rankers of the large guild gathered three days ago were mobilized?
It won't be easy.
The results could not be definitively put into words.
"Jinhyuk Kang I already know that the player is great. There was also a strong recommendation from Takeshi-san."
However.
"According to the official tally, the deceased corporation consists of only about ten people. Do you really think that you can maintain the maximum power with only these people?"
"I think you're misunderstanding something..."
Jinhyuk smirked.
"The reason we have a small number of people is because there is no need to increase the number."
few elites.
If each person has hundreds of thousands of capabilities, there is no reason to inflate their size.
" "
Snyder kept her mouth shut as the words were muffled.
Swordseong, Cheonyuseong, and Saint Teresa who saved Amsterdam, whom everyone is reluctant to face one-on-one. There was even a silver-haired ranker called Elise.
Each member of the Goin Corporation was unmatched.
'I didn't expect to be naturalized in the United States, but... There is no room for negotiations at all.'
no.
It's not over yet.
Didn't you prepare a hidden card to stimulate your opponent for such a time?
"I can't I didn't want to do it this far "
Snyder nodded towards the Benz.
OK.
rumble.
The door opened, and someone appeared.
" !!??"
Jinhyeok's eyes flashed with a smile.
The person Snyder brought was never meant to be here.
