Chapter 24

Episode 24

– The monster attack that ended last night with the disappearance of the portal that appeared in the sky suddenly occurred again after midnight.

-Swarms of monsters appeared one after another from Seoul, Suwon, Gwangju, Gangneung, and Busan.

-Due to the sudden situation, the government quickly deployed military forces, but the city suffered a lot of damage.

-But even in the grim situation, there were hopeful reports. Reporter Lee So-yeon.

-yes. I am currently at Gwanghwamun Square. Seoul, which was attacked by the most monsters, suffered the least damage compared to other cities.

-What is the reason?

-Because there were heroes who stopped the monsters. We at NBN were the first to secure their identity information.

Namgoong slowly opened his eyes to the faint sound of the anchor’s voice.

“Are you awake?”

“…How long did I sleep?”

“About half a day. “How many have you caught?”

“well. I don’t know when it goes beyond 3,000…”

“3,000? “I really have nothing to say.”

Myung-Hoon burst out laughing and looked at him.

“I’m glad the underpass didn’t collapse.”

“Because the mall was divided into sections. “This was possible because it was an underground passage divided into several branches, not above ground.”

“But you know you almost died, right? There was a lot of smoke from the bomb. “I was so surprised to see that he had collapsed when I went to the entrance to the station that my brother had told me about in advance.”

“huh. “The ventilation system was already broken by the goblins before the bomb exploded.”

Although he said it casually, Myung-Hoon spoke with a serious face towards Namgung.

“older brother. It’s good to put your heads together and become stronger, but you also have to think about Somin. “Do not waste your life carelessly.”

“okay.”

Namgung clapped his hand in response to his words, but Myeonghun did not let go of his hand on his shoulder.

“Even if you don’t trust me, please leave these matters to me from now on. “Did you know?”

“Your life is important too. “You’re the hero who saved Korea, right?”

“…don’t say that. Because I’m embarrassed. “I know you did it all to fool your brother.”

Namgung chuckled at his answer.

“Is Alek Traman really going to contact you like you said?”

“of course. The first gate of hell has only opened. There are definitely people who have adapted well to the situation, so there must be quite a few people who go out to hunt goblins.”

However, no one succeeded in large-scale hunting against a horde of goblins like Hojun and Myeonghun.

‘Alec is the only one known, but if he killed over 100 goblins on his own… the rest of the Palmuseong would probably be at a similar level.’

Actually, that alone was a great thing.

However, considering the number of goblins that appeared all over the world, about 100 were literally a new bloodshed.

‘The power of the so-called Revelators was only that much, so the first Gate of Hell had no choice but to remain in place for several years.’

But now the situation has completely reversed.

The gates of hell closed quickly, and the sudden appearance of goblins created fear, but in the grand scheme of things, it ended with much less damage. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

‘Of course, you wouldn’t know that, but…’

What was important was not the number of damages, but that Ho-jun and Myung-hoon hunted far more goblins than Alec Traman, who called himself a revealer.

“When Alec Traman requests to contact you two, the rest of the Eight Stars will probably move as well.”

“All right. “I told Hojun to let me know if he gets a call.”

“huh. good job.”

Only then did Namgoong look as if he had been at a loss.

‘Now that the first hell gate is closed and the goblin wave is over, there will be some time until the second hell gate.’

In my past life, I could not close the first hell gate until the second hell gate opened.

Therefore, it was difficult to estimate the interval between opening the next door when the first door was closed.

I just hope I have some time to catch my breath.

“It’s actually a loss for the head.”

Namgung looked at the number of heads floating in his field of vision.

▶ Remaining heads: 31300

Although we hunted more than 3,000 goblins, we ended up using more than 8,000 heads.

‘There’s nothing we can do since we killed approximately 60 to 70 goblins with a 150-head bomb.’

Of course, I got a reward that I couldn’t buy with my head.

▶ Title: Goblin Ruler

Those who hunt numerous goblins can learn the agility of goblins.

Those who acquire the title have a significant increase in agility.

After winning the title, Namgung felt that his body had definitely become lighter.

“Hey brother. What’s important about the head? “My brother came back alive among thousands of monsters.”

Myung-Hoon said, looking at his regretful expression.

“know. Boy. Anyway, you can collect the heads again later. Instead, I achieved my goal.”

Namgung took out four runes and parchment from the squadron.

“Three lowest level runes and one low level rune. “If Gyeongin had been there, we could have gotten more, but it would have been difficult to use a bow in the chaos of bombs exploding.”

“I think the older brother who picked up the rune in the meantime is even more amazing, right?”

He chuckled.

“That’s the quest scroll you mentioned.”

“that’s right.”

Namgung looked at the parchment.

It was a scroll containing a quest that was dropped when more than 3,000 goblins were killed for the first time.

‘The color of beeswax is green.’

It was an advanced level quest.

Considering the 5th level of regular high-end rare hero legends, the high-level quests were not that high-level.

‘But we’ve only just finished the first step.’

In fact, based on his memories from his past life, the achievement of killing more than 3,000 goblins was something that could only be achieved after several years had passed.

“Let’s look at the contents of the parchment later when the kids come.”

“All right. While you were sleeping, Gyeongin and Somin contacted you. “It looks like he arrived at the hospital safely at dawn.”

“Thank goodness.”

“Gyeongin’s father is in the intensive care unit and cannot move yet. So I told him to stay there a little longer and then come back slowly.”

Namgung nodded at Myunghun’s words.

‘Sinchon is still safe.’

However, the important thing was that that safety could not last forever.

“What about Hojun?”

“Not yet. “Maybe it’ll take a while because I’m doing an interview.”

“…interview?”

“Kkkkkk. Aren’t you the hero of Gwanghwamun? You might not know it because my brother passed out, but it wasn’t a big fuss. “After taking out all the goblins in Gwanghwamun Square, the reporters appeared from nowhere… Ugh.”

“You must be annoyed by his personality.”

Myung-Hoon trembled slightly.

“If I have to crack it, I have to crack it. There’s no fuss right now. “Not only domestic reporters but also foreign media are reporting on the Battle of Gwanghwamun Square extensively.”

Namgung smiled bitterly at his words.

“I think the higher-ups are planning to use this guy as a face madam. If Alec wants to make contact, as you intended, he will contact Hojun first.”

“good.”

Hearing Myung-Hoon’s words, Namgung leaned a little more on the floor and spoke.

-The government established an emergency protection team to deal with this sudden phenomenon. They said that they want to prevent future accidents.

-Emergently convening experts in each field. Led by team leader Park Hyo-joo, a member of the Special Countermeasures Center established this year…

“Ah. I bought one at a general store. “There is no electricity here… so it runs on batteries.”

Namgung nodded slowly as the broadcast played on the radio.

‘Park Hyo-joo…’

He took a moment to catch his breath at the familiar name he heard on the air.

‘A team specializing in monsters will soon be formed. According to her past life, the first gate of hell has not yet been blocked, so it would take a long time after martial law was declared to create a dedicated team…’ Now that the

future has changed because of him, Namgoong thinks he will be able to watch her movements much sooner. did.

‘Park Hyo-joo, a change-maker.’

She was like the gatekeeper of the Republic of Korea.

The Chamak Unit, an anti-monster team led by her, was initially centered in Seoul and gradually expanded its territory to cover the entire Republic of Korea.

‘However, due to Choi Hwi-soo’s plan to create a command corps, the true evil collapsed and the Republic of Korea became ruins in an instant.’

But Choi Hwi-soo is no longer there.

With her position as the revealer of the Seven Serpents, her true evil unit may be able to do much more than in her previous life.

‘He’s one of the few trustworthy talents in Korea… so it’ll be okay for the time being.’

A lot had happened with her in his past life, but

in the current situation, there was no way she would know him, so Namgung didn’t think there was any need to come forward.

‘I hope you survive for a long time this time…’

Namgoong smiled bitterly as he remembered the face of the woman who was one of Choi Hwi-soo’s biological experiment subjects along with himself.

“dad!!”

It was then.

The door to the goblin cave opened, revealing my daughter.

“Are you here?”

“are you okay? “What about Uncle Myung-Hoon?”

“It’s over there. don’t worry. “Because they’re both fine.”

“Ugh. Do you know how surprised I am when I watch the broadcast? It was on the news that he was the hero of Gwanghwamun, and Uncle Myung-hoon’s face was right there…! “It was really absurd.”

“Did you see it? “This uncle’s skills.”

Myung-Hoon smiled and answered her question by folding his arms and showing his muscles.

“But Dad…? “We went together.”

“Dad had some other business to attend to.”

“Any other business?”

Namgung lightly tapped Somin on the shoulder and looked at Gyeongin.

“How is your father?”

“yes. Are you still okay? As you said, military troops are deployed…”

“Still, you’re anxious, aren’t you?”

“you’re right.”

Gyeongin’s father, Jeon Tae-ho, who was unconscious and in a coma, was barely surviving on a life support machine.

Fortunately, we were able to prevent the attack in Jongno, so we were still safe, but if even a power outage occurred, it would be an extremely dangerous situation.

“don’t worry.”

Namgung said as if he understood his feelings.

“You just have to save your father.”

“…yes?”

“There is a way to bring my father’s consciousness back. “It is possible to use the elixir from the Yaksha bundle.”

He folded his thumb and showed it to him.

“The price of the elixir is 400,000 heads.”

“4400,000 heads? “Now we have only collected a few thousand heads… when… that is impossible.”

After hearing the price, Gyeongin shouted at Namgung.

“It was like that a little while ago.”

At that moment, he threw the parchment towards Gyeongin.

▶ You have obtained an advanced quest.

▶ Hidden quest 『Goblin’s Gold Storage』 has been added.

▶ Now that all the goblins are dead, there is a rumor that an unclaimed gold coin warehouse is hidden in Yeouido.

“not now.”
