Chapter 56

Episode 56

– Humanity’s Great Depression!!

-Never-ending horror?! How long will the monsters threaten humanity…!

-Casualties continue to appear from all over the world!

– Closure orders are starting to appear in major European cities!

-The United Nations proposes an emergency meeting! However, difficulties are continuing due to the interests of officials from each country.

After talking with Hojun and Myeonghun, Namgung entered the fortress.

When I turned on my phone, the world was in complete chaos as the second monster wave had ended.

However, in Namgung’s eyes, the only feeling was that this chaos was more stable than ever.

‘Emergency meeting? If you can do something like that, it’s not chaos yet.’

By the time the third door opened, many small countries had already disappeared from the map.

“Well, there’s no need to compare it to your past life anymore. Now I just have to think about attacking monsters with the information I remember.”

The collapse of the country was prevented to some extent.

As a result of protecting the government system that almost disappeared and shutting it down quickly, many countries were able to maintain their system.

‘Current weapons such as military units may not be of much help over time, but it is meaningful for the military to be maintained.’

It’s not simply because of the unit’s weapons.

It was true that soldiers who were able to mobilize firepower were able to collect more heads in the beginning than ordinary people.

Because of this, the growth of soldiers was important.

‘The military of each country already has a system in place, so if the soldiers’ strength is strengthened, it will be much easier to protect each country.’

It was confusing, but there was still hope. However, it was a different article that caught Namgung’s eye.

-Apocalypseists appear one after another in each city!

-Frenzied citizens on the streets are indiscriminately attacking grocery and daily necessities stores.

-A press conference by Eira, the new director of the Australian aid organization STW! Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

-Aira Michelle Is she a revelator?!

-Promises salvation for the entire STW world amidst chaos! Review of national support that transcends the nation….

‘The saint is finally starting to move.’

Namgung looked at the familiar name and nodded slowly.

As a Revelator chosen by the mother of the Phase Breeze, she was a Revelator with powerful recovery abilities.

‘The launch of STW will be an opportunity to bring about another tectonic shift.’

At a time when Alek Traman revealed himself as a revealer and was gathering people and building up power, STW could not help but be a thorn in his eyes.

‘She is a tremendous healer who can not only recover from physical damage such as amputation, but also status changes such as poison and insanity.’

Naturally, many people wanted her to receive treatment, which caused a bigger impact than the fanaticism that Jin Wei was causing with the new drug.

“Hmm….”

Jinwei of the Alec Triad of the Supernational Alliance and Eira of STW.

“For the time being, it will be a three-way battle between them.”

They will start gathering people to increase their power.

‘Now is your chance.’

And when the world’s attention is focused on them, it will be the time to prepare their plans.

“But before that…”

Namgung raised his arms.

“We need to resolve this first.”

It was a chain wrapped around his left arm after meeting Wu at Ran’s Nest.

Crying….

When I waved my hand, I heard a metallic sound as the chain was wrapped around me, but unlike how it looked, I didn’t feel any weight.

Numbering??

Name: Wu’s Chain

Grade: ??

▶ Chain of rain. It has special powers.

‘As expected, there is no numbering.’

The good news is that you can see the chain information.

‘The fact that it has a numbering still means that it is an item approved by the authorities.’

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu been me me meadow….

Namgung gave strength to the hand wrapped around the chain.

Then the chain trembled slightly, but that was all.

There was no significant change.

“Hmm.”

Since the existence of Woo (无) was still completely unknown, there was no way to guess what his weapon was.

Since I didn’t know what kind of weapon it was, I had no idea how to use it.

‘Do you really need magical power?’

If so, it was an awkward situation.

He couldn’t check with Somin because he couldn’t use magical power and he couldn’t undo the chain around his wrist.

“What on earth is this?”

[Isn’t it written there? It’s called Woo’s chain.]

That was then.

In an instant, the room where Namgung was in became completely dark.

At the same time, the person whose voice was heard behind him walked towards him.

“Yor.”

[Make sure you understand. There are so many eyes looking at you. This is the only way to have a comfortable conversation.]

“It doesn’t matter.”

Namgung looked at Yor who appeared in front of him and nodded.

[Yep. The leap of growth you mentioned. As you said, I received it from my superiors. But I understand your intention… Is it possible to hatch a serpent egg?]

“No. I don’t know.”

[I’m still a helpless guy.]

“I don’t know how to hatch, but I know someone who does.”

[Who is that?]

“Druid.”

At Namgung’s answer, Yor looked at him as if he was dumbfounded.

[Surely you mean the revelator chosen by the widow of thornvine? Does that make sense? The one who was most opposed to giving me that elixir was the widow of Thorn Vine.]

He said as if he didn’t understand.

[I don’t know how, but did you ask for the elixir of growth that can evolve into an adult? It’s not that great of a thing, but it can be obtained naturally over time.]

Yor handed a small elixir to Namgung.

[It would have been better to ask for a rare or unique level item.]

“The value of an item depends not on its price or level, but on when and how it is used.”

[Well… it would be nice to be able to summon summons before others. But no matter how you think about it, it’s a losing business. Because the elixir of growth is an item that will soon be available to people.]

“Well… if you can hatch a serpent, it’s right to use it there, but there’s no rule that says you can only use the elixir of growth on summons.”

[…Hmm?]

At that moment, Yor read Namgung’s expression.

[Right. Even if it seems like there is no solution, you are the type of person who always prepares a solution and moves forward…]

Looking at the unique face he makes when trying to figure out something, Yor realized that his worries were meaningless.

[I guess I should save the fun of watching.]

“Anyway, I’d like you to talk about this more than Serpent’s Egg.”

Charring –

Namgung raised his arm and showed the chain wrapped around it to Yor.

[This is literally the chain that Woo used. Honestly, I didn’t know I was going to give this to you. It looks like he liked you quite a bit.]

“I guess he thought it was worth using.”

[What did he say to you?]

“He said he was someone who never existed from the beginning.”

[That’s not wrong.]

“What on earth is this guy?”

[That’s exactly what it says. One who does not exist, not absence. He is the only one.]

Yor said to Namgung.

[Do you know what the source of the world is? It is creation and destruction.]

“Could it be that the Aspects are in charge of creation and that being called Woo is responsible for destruction?”

[no. Both creation and destruction are the responsibility of our Aspects. To you, carnival may seem unreasonable and unfair, but if you look at it on many levels, appropriate destruction creates more powerful creation. We are coordinating it.]

“It seems to me that they are just playing games with humans?”

Yor smiled bitterly at Namgung’s cold response.

[Of course… if the same thing has been repeated for tens of thousands of years, change is necessary. I can’t deny that it’s entertainment, but it’s also an opportunity and a benefit for you.]

“So? “Then what is Woo (无)?”

[It is a void born between creation and destruction. Something abnormal that is not born from the source. A being whose status is different from ours. If the status is a being that protects the natural order, then this guy is a being that twists the curve.]

“I understand a little bit what he said now. “It means that you don’t exist.”

[okay. A regression that goes back in time is literally an inflection itself. The Aspects were convinced that you were a returner, so they sent you to him for testing.]

Namgung nodded slowly.

[There’s no way he could leave you alone when you’re standing at an inflection point.]

[But he let me go?”

[that’s right. I was really stabbed in the back. The Aspects will no longer be able to test you. Rather, it’s confusing.]

“It’s because I know you told Erica that I’m a regressor.”

[that’s right. Because there are people who wonder if you lied. It turned out to be fun. How can they take advantage of the fact that there are regressors in this way?]

“Well, it seems like their test was faster than I thought since it happened before I even got the egg, but… it doesn’t matter.”

[Even our phases don’t know exactly what that chain is. All I know is that Wu’s chain cannot be broken even by its phase.]

“Is it something I can use? What requires a different type of power, such as magical power or spirit power…”

[Well. If you can’t use it, there’s no way Wu would have given it to you. If you need magical power, you will have an opportunity to obtain magical power, and if you need spirit power, you will have the opportunity to make a contract with a spirit. Because he is the one who has observed all the festivals that we have not been able to see. You can know both the past and the future.]

“Hmm….”

[Maybe something will happen to you. At that time, you will know how to use that chain and what it is.]

Namgung nodded at Yor’s words.

[Still, be careful. Because it’s not very pleasant for Woo to show interest in you.]

“If you don’t want to be taken away by that guy, you have to be nicer to me.”

Yor burst out laughing, as if taken aback by his words.

[Boy. Do you think there is a person of stature who cares about the Revelator as much as I do?]

“I don’t care. “I cleared the dungeon at best, but you left behind a strange travel book to test me.”

[What is that….]

“The reward of the labyrinth. “If you’re going to care, shouldn’t you give me the proper compensation that I should have received in the first place?”

[Huh… Anyway, he’s a guy with no gaps.]

Yor looked at Namgung with an expression of shock at his words.

[They ask for a reward even after obtaining the Chain of Wu…]

“It means nothing to me if I can’t use it right now. “Hurry up and hand it out.”

Click –

He snapped his fingers and a reward box appeared.

[Well, what you say is not wrong. Even if you take care of this much, the Aspects will not say anything.]

“Of course you should.”

Namgung looked at the box and smiled strangely.

▶ The time of dawn has come.

▶ The festival is over and it is time for everyone to rest.

▶ The proxy family prepared a small gift for the participants at the end of the second carnival.

It was then.

“…It has begun.”

The voice of the Yasha echoing in my head.

▶ The proxy clan would like to support everyone participating in the carnival.

It was a notification that the proxy auction would begin before the red zone appeared.

[I heard your daughter is participating in the auction?]

“But?”

[Check.]

Yor smiled meaningfully, pointing to the reward box with his chin as if telling him to open it quickly.

Snap-

“This is…”

He checked the items in the box and looked at Yor with slightly surprised eyes.

[How do you like it?]

Namgung chuckled at his question.

“Now I’m finally working properly.”
