Chapter 54

Episode 54

“Ninagawa Erika is a returner… She’s not an easy opponent. “Because not all of Biwol’s assassins are easy to overlook.”

Jin Wei suddenly seemed to be convinced that she was a regressor.

It was a hasty decision.

It was probably a mistake I wouldn’t have made under normal circumstances.

But the world has changed, and a strange power exists that can overcome human limitations.

The anticipation of the new power he would gain by carrying out his mission had dulled his cool-headedness.

“good. That aside. “Let’s take care of what needs to be settled first.”

Is it because of the regressor’s information?

Unlike before, Jin Wei spoke to Nangong in a friendly manner.

“I’ve been interested in you from the beginning. “I had some doubts, but now that it’s clear that he’s a revelator, we can have a more in-depth conversation.”

“My request is not that difficult. Get all your men out. “If anyone catches my eye, I will kill them all from now on.”

“I guess you heard about my plan from Chen Xun? “If it’s my plan, I can collect the heads easily.”

“If it’s the head, it’s enough to catch the monster.”

“Listen carefully. We will also hunt monsters, but the danger will increase as time passes. Then…”

Boom –

Namgoong’s fist hit the roulette table, and the table’s legs shook! It broke with a sound.

“If I had been working for you, I wouldn’t have done something like this. “I guess it’s not a bad idea, right?”

“….”

“If you’re going to do shit, go do it on your own land. “If you want, I will put medicine in your men’s mouths and take them to the boat.”

There was silence for a moment. As the two looked at each other, none of them avoided their gaze.

“Heh.”

In the tense atmosphere, Jin Wei’s low laugh changed the atmosphere.

“As expected, Chen Xin deserves it. It’s not just because he’s a revealer. I’m curious about what’s next for you. “You were with a National Intelligence Service agent, right?”

“It’s not that big of a deal. If you’re curious, you can do some research. Unit 711. “It’s gone now, but it’s where I was.”

“Hoo… Seeing that you’re talking so casually, I guess you’re confident?”

Jinwei asked him.

“You are great, but are the rest of your subordinates really as strong as you? “I think they would make great shackles for your ankles.”

“There are only a few members of the unit left, but not all of them are following me. If you want to do it, do it. “If you kill them, you die too.”

“Then what about your daughter?”

Kwaang—!!

At that moment, Nangong’s sword dug into Jinwei’s shoulder.

“Tsk!!”

Due to the tremendous impact, his body, which was sitting in a chair, was pushed back and he fell to the floor.

Namgung slowly twisted the sword stabbing from above him and applied strength.

Loud…! Kkeuddeuddeuk…!!

With the sound of bones grinding, his sword slowly dug into Jinwei’s shoulder.

“I’ll kill you here.”

“Kukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk… I thought there would be no weaknesses but that is not the case. Is there a good response? “Now you’re a little more human.”

Jin Wei looked at Nangong with an expression full of joy, as if he didn’t feel any pain.

“He was supposed to be with me, but he couldn’t have done it without investigating. I don’t like gambling either. “A safe transaction is better than a risky game.”

“okay?”

The vitality that had bloomed for a moment disappeared in an instant.

Creepy –

Rather, Jin Wei sensed something was wrong with his reaction.

“Jinwei. “He is the adoptive son of Lin Chan, the former triad mountain lord, but he rose to the position of mountain lord in an unusual way.”

“so?”

“My real name is Jin Xiong. From Hong Kong’s largest slum, Kowloon Walled City. By blood, I have one younger brother. Jinyan. Currently attending the Chinese University of Hong Kong. “Unlike your brother, you are steady.”

“You…”

Jin Wei saw the look in Nangong’s eyes as he spoke to her and was convinced at that moment.

I shouldn’t have touched it.

‘For sure… it kills.’

At that moment, his younger brother’s face flashed through his mind. Although he was from a slum, he was recognized for his skills and became Lin Chan’s adopted son, whereas his younger brother was not.

Gulp –

There was no lie in his eyes.

“You knew each other’s weaknesses. good. That’s actually better. Wouldn’t it be a much more reliable transaction? ha ha ha!”

Jinwei smiled awkwardly as he pushed away the sword stuck in his shoulder.

“So let go of this? Now let’s talk about something more constructive. Okay, let’s take out all the factories that were planning to build in Korea. “All you have to do is find a place.”

Sigh –

As Nangong retrieved the sword, Jinwei poured the potion on his bleeding shoulder.

Cheeeeeek…!!

After the smell of burning smoke passed for a moment, his wounds instantly healed.

“….”

Namgung glanced at the five rings on his fingers.

‘Five-colored ring.’

It was a gift given by the person handling the bonfire to his revealer during the free quest.

Each ring had a socket, and if you put an alchemy stone inside it, it was a treasure that could immediately use alchemy without any other tools or techniques.

‘Is there only one alchemy stone still embedded? In that case, we won’t be able to create the Lower Five Waters.’

Namgung thought as he looked at the remaining four empty rings.

‘Before it’s all filled…’

He made a silent declaration that Jinwei couldn’t hear.

‘I’ll have to kill him.’

But before that, I had to get what I needed.

One of them is Lower Five Waters.

It was a potion made with a special alchemy formula that could be learned when two alchemy stones were filled into a five-colored ring.

An item that makes the user invincible for a certain period of time.

If you only read the description, it was a fraudulent item, but in my previous life, it was dismissed as a virtually useless item.

‘Because it lasts at most 5 seconds.’

Moreover, it was also a double-edged sword in that it actually caused you to fall into a status abnormality once the duration was over.

‘In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that production is impossible now.’

The materials needed for production were not currently available, so they had to be purchased from a Yaksha bundle.

Even in his previous life, Jin Wei had created Haosu at most once.

“I would like to request a production.”

“request? “What is it like?”

“I think it would be good if it was a potion that could nullify attacks and protect against status ailments.”

“Hmm… there is something like that.”

“Can you produce it?”

“no. It’s impossible. “If my alchemy level is a little higher, I can make something similar… but I still don’t have enough heads to buy the alchemy stones.”

“How much do you need?”

“20,000 heads. At first it was 10,000 heads, but when the second door opened, the price of the alchemy stone also went up. It seems that the price rises more as time passes. That means it is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.”

Jin Wei shrugged his shoulders and said to him.

“So we needed a way to collect additional heads. Tsk, I don’t even know that…”

“If you’re saying it’s reasonable to kill people because of the head, then stop talking nonsense.”

“…Any suggestions?”

“I will give you 10,000 heads. The remaining 10,000 heads belong to a guy named Ryeojin who was assigned to me by Chen Xin. “That will be enough.”

“No. You can’t calculate it that way. Even if I buy an alchemy stone, what are the ingredients to make a potion? “I also need a head to buy it.”

“You take care of that arrangement. “With the second door over, it would be much more beneficial for you to be able to learn a new alchemy technique.”

“That’s not enough. I put a lot of thought into making Berserker’s recipe. “We couldn’t retrieve any of it.”

“I will connect you for you.”

“what?”

“Ingredients needed for alchemy. Most of them are related to monsters. is not it?”

Jinwei showed interest in what Namgung said.

“What if we could collect it directly from monsters? “It will be a great benefit to you since you won’t have to waste unnecessary heads.”

“···Is that possible?”

“of course. However, to do so, a special process is required. In other words, we need an expert who can dismantle monsters.”

“Dismantle the monster? It’s hard to believe. “I can’t believe there is someone who can do that.”

“how is it?”

Jinwei slightly frowned at Nangong’s words.

“…Do you mean to invest?”

There was silence for a moment, and Jin Wei slowly nodded, as if making some calculations.

“I will do that. But one more thing. “What about compensation for other damages, such as the factory and medicine manufacturing machine that you destroyed?”

Ssssssssssssssss—!!

At that moment, spirit soldiers appeared behind him and surrounded Jinwei.

“Jang Gil-su from Majang-dong.”

Wow!!!

In the black smoke, three swords were aimed at his limbs, and As’s ax was aimed at Jinwei’s neck.

“We can just go find him.”

“…Are you saying that pointing a sword at someone’s neck is compensation?”

Jin Wei looked at the spirit soldiers surrounding him and asked in confusion,

“So. “Is there any greater compensation than this?”

“what?”

“Don’t use your head to get even a small amount of money. “Because that’s enough to pay for my life saving you right now.”

Gulp –

Namgung looked at Jinwei’s uvula trembling and spoke as if warning him.

* * *

“…dad!!!”

Namgoong, who returned to Seoul from Yeongjong Island, hugged Somin as she ran towards him.

When he felt his daughter’s warmth, he felt like his cold heart was slowly melting.

‘It’s been a really long day.’

Namgoong lightly brushed Somin’s cheek and raised his head while holding his daughter once again.

“Good job.”

“There is nothing to call it hard work. “When I came back, Hojun had prepared his defenses well.”

“What about the former player?”

“I am currently resting at the base. “I guess I’m tired because I stayed up most of the night hunting.”

“Well, it was a forced march after I left the hospital room. Good job. Kyung-in, what about you?”

“I’m fine. Thank you for your hard work. mister.”

“It’s okay. “Just a little while ago, this guy was stretched out next to the former player, but when he said his brother was coming, he crawled out.” Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Gyeong-in scratched his head in embarrassment at Ho-jun’s words.

‘From now on, it would be better to give stamina runes to the two people first.’

Unlike Hojun and Myeonghun, who had a military background, the two people, who were close to ordinary people, were bound to have a hard time.

“But who is that child?”

“This is a kid I met while working on Yeongjong Island. “It looks like he’ll be staying with us for a while, so take care of him.”

“Hmm. All right.”

Myung-Hoon nodded, looking at Seong-Woo, who was standing behind Nam-Gung, with a very nervous face.

“How old are you?”

“…I’m seventeen.”

Seongwoo answered in a crawling voice, still with a wary look in his eyes.

“Kyungin, I’m the same age as you. Please help me in the future.”

“All right. nice to meet. “It’s called a riot policeman.”

Gyeong-in extended his hand towards Seong-woo.

“…Oh my friend?”

Seongwoo, who had been cowering a moment ago, was gone, grinning and holding Gyeongin’s hand.

“Don’t show off.”

“Oh yes.”

However, after hearing Namgung’s words again for a moment, he shrugged his shoulders and nodded.

“Hello, brother! I’m Nam So-min! I’m doing great!!”

“ha ha ha. hi.”

Somin smiled friendly towards the voice actor who held out his hand in an awkward posture and shouted, folding their hands together.

“dad! Is it okay if I show the voice actor a tour of the base?”

“Let it be so.”

Somin, who was quick-witted, took Seongwoo and Gyeongin down to avoid the spot.

“Captain, how were you yesterday?”

In response to Hojun’s question, Namgoong told him about what happened last night.

“Wow… were the Triad guys really involved? The Cheonilhoe guys are also big players… but they’re on a completely different level, right?”

“Cheonilhoe has ended as of today. Chairman Shin Tae-hwa died. “The National Intelligence Service decided to take charge of the remaining remnants.”

“Is Shin Tae-hwa dying?”

“huh.”

In response to Namgung’s calm response, Hojun did not bother to ask who killed him.

“It’s nothing for us to worry about anymore. “Anyway, all the remaining triads in the country decided to withdraw.”

Namgung gave Myeonghun a note with a number written on it.

“Still, they will often come into the country for transactions. This is the number of a guy named Chen Xun, one of the Triad executives. “Keep it with you so we can communicate as needed.”

Myung-Hoon nodded.

“So what should we do now?”

“When the third door opens, it will be completely different from before. “Now it’s not just about opening a portal and hunting down the monsters created inside.”

“…then?”

“The crust will change and a new terrain will be created. The first island of monsters to appear in the center of the Arctic Ocean.”

Namgung spoke in a low voice.

Red zone.

“We are beginning preparations for an attack there.”
