Chapter 557 Technological Revolution (4)
Park Cheol-min blinked in silence.
The appearance of a man looking at himself in the situation unfolding in front of his eyes raised doubts about whether this was really real.
“I’ll tell you right from the point. I heard that His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry distributed swords as supplies to all members of his direct jurisdiction, but is that really true?”
man’s identity.
It was the royal dragon.
A person who is mentioned as the president of China and the best sword in the world.
As Park Cheol-min, he is not a person you can meet often, so it was embarrassing to face him directly.
And behind Wang Wi-ryong, there were people like Xiaolong, who had a world-renowned reputation.
The thought that their fierce eyes were watching each one of their actions made me feel the pressure so much that I could even feel the blinking of their eyes and the change in their expression.
Why the hell did you come to me?
I don’t know why, since we haven’t met each other, but I honestly answered Wang Wi-ryong’s question.
“… It is true.”
“Is it true that Miracle artisans checked the condition of the sword and praised it?”
“yes. We’ve known it’s great ever since His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry forged it himself, but craftsmen say it has the ingredients to revolutionize technology. But why are you asking these things?”
Wang Wi-ryong is an ally.
I don’t think hostility was included, but Park Cheol-min couldn’t help but be suspicious.
OK.
Wang Weilong sent a signal.
widely.
Xiaolong put something on the table.
It was covered with cloth, but the elongated shape was obviously a sword.
wickedness.
walked the cloth
Wang Wi-ryong said with a smile on his face that was revealed brilliantly.
“The name of this sword is Yellow Dragon. If you have even the slightest interest in mana weapons, you must have heard of the Yellow Dragon, which was painstakingly crafted by the best artisans in China. An ability that amplifies three or more stages even if it is the same skill. People say that Yellow Dragon is the best among S-class weapons because of the details that do not miss even its strength as a steel weapon. I will give you this sword.”
“yes???!”
I was astonished.
As described by Wang Wi-ryong.
The Yellow Dragon is a sword that represents the mana weapon market.
It could be said to be a treasure, but I couldn’t readily accept the fact that I was just giving it to myself.
Since then, my hands and feet have been shaking.
Park Cheol-min couldn’t come to his senses at the thought that the beautiful yellow dragon could become his.
“There is only one condition. Just give me the sword you received as a supply.”
Moment.
His expression hardened as if he had been splashed with cold water.
The Yellow Dragon was a very attractive condition.
Most would accept the deal, but the supplies Roman Dmitri gave them were a completely different matter.
“sorry.”
“… You’re going to reject the Yellow Dragon?”
“I know very well how great a weapon the Yellow Dragon is, but even though the sword I was given is a supply item, His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitri considered each individual’s characteristics and made it himself. It is a sword only for me, and it also has the symbolism of changing the name of the Korean Empire. How could you give me a sword like that? I’m sorry, but I’ll assume that the condition you just mentioned didn’t exist.”
“I understand the importance of symbolism. However, even considering the individual characteristics, I do not think that the Yellow Dragon is inferior to the sword. In the end, a yellow dragon will give you an advantage over a B-rated sword, and the world will see you differently just because you have a yellow dragon.”
“It’s such a great sword, why would you want to give it to me? Rather, I think the commentary’s suggestion proves the value of my sword.”
I was speechless.
If it’s a yellow dragon.
I thought the other party would accept it.
I ran to it in a month, thinking that I would somehow get the sword of the Heavenly Demon, but I didn’t know that I would run into such difficulties.
momentary silence.
Wang Weilong cautiously opened his mouth.
“Yellow Dragon plus 5 billion.”
“… .”
“Plus 10 billion.”
“… .”
“Plus 30 billion. No, tell me all the conditions you want. I’ll listen to whatever it is.”
“sorry.”
“Damn it!”
Wang Weilong’s expression twisted.
If you handed out a blank check and it was rejected, it was virtually impossible to purchase the sword in a legitimate way.
Park Chul-min stood up from his seat.
Then.
“sorry.”
As if there was no need to talk anymore, he left without regret.
* * *
Wang Wiryong could not give up like this.
Even if it wasn’t Park Chul-min, there were many people who had swords, and they went to the people in the direct control unit and offered to trade them one by one.
As a result.
“You can never sell it.”
“This sword is the symbol of the direct control. The moment you sell the sword, you will not be recognized by your colleagues.”
“I felt it while fighting this war. I will make this sword, which suits me perfectly, my soul mate. Would Chairman Wang Wi-ryong sell his companion no matter how much money he offered?”
“sorry.”
A series of rejections.
Everyone rejected the offer.
Wang Wi-ryong made an eye-opening proposal, but the members of the direct command realized how valuable Roman Dmitri’s sword was during the war.
It even has a symbolism.
In the days when it was called the Republic of Korea, he held a sword in his hand, and with it he blocked Roman Dmitri, cut down enemies, and changed the name of the Korean Empire.
In the first place, there was no one who gave up this important symbolism among the members of the direct control unit who decided to become a member of the direct control unit from the time when Incheon was at the bottom.
As Wang Wi-ryong, his stomach burned.
When I heard about the Heavenly Demon’s sword.
He believed that he too could make his dreams come true.
If you get your hands on the sword of the heavenly demon that the ancestors talked about, the sword of the heavenly demon that you use it will be the moment your dream comes true.
Emotions surged just by imagining it.
That’s why he prepared the conditions for a transaction of up to tens of billions of won to Huanglong, but he had no idea that all 30 members of the direct control team would coldly refuse the transaction.
continued refusal.
The last was Lee Tae-seong.
As his sword is of S rank, he knew that he could never be persuaded by an alternative like the Yellow Dragon.
still went for it
It felt like grabbing at least a straw.
As expected, it was rejected, but Lee Tae-seong heard limited information.
“If you want the sword of His Majesty Roman Dmitry, there will be a big event in the Korean Empire in the next month. On the spot, His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry said that he would exhibit and sell swords he had made himself. Would you rather buy a sword that is open to all than a sword made for someone else? Under the condition that Chairman Wang Wi-ryong suggested to me, I would be able to defeat many competitors and purchase the sword.”
Eyes flashed open.
Selling the sword of the Heavenly Demon!
I felt like I had found a way to live.
Wang Wi-ryong had never been acquainted with Lee Tae-sung before, but this time he grabbed his hand and spoke sincerely.
“I will never forget this favor. never!”
that day.
Orders have been given to Chinese leaders.
An order to raise as much surplus funds as possible.
Even then, people did not anticipate the consequences of China’s actions.
* * *
That time.
Subtle movements were also captured in the United States.
It wasn’t just an American thing.
As the Korean Empire rose rapidly, countries around the world showed interest in everything that happened in the Korean Empire.
the US leadership said.
“Anyway, the movements of Wang Wiryong are unusual. He suddenly went to the Korean Empire in person, and as a result of the informant’s confirmation, it is said that he visited all the members of the direct control unit one by one to purchase the ‘sword’ supplied by the direct control unit. As you know, that sword was the one that caused a stir recently at the Korean Empire Craftsman Association.”
“What the hell is going on in the Korean Empire?”
John Harrison gave a questioning look.
Park Cheol-min’s sword.
It was a hot potato.
Just as China heard the news of Chul-Min Park, the United States also knew that a single sword could shake the Korean Empire.
But they didn’t move right away like Wangwiryong.
I was watching because I didn’t know how great the sword of the Heavenly Demon was, but when Wang Wiryong moved, I thought I couldn’t just watch it.
said John Harrison.
“Right now, operate the information network to its fullest. Park Cheol-min’s sword Be sure to find out what kind of sword it is.”
“All right.”
a few days after that.
The informants succeeded in their mission.
Finding out the truth wasn’t too difficult, because Dmitry Roman didn’t bother to hide it.
however.
The informant’s words were shocking.
“Park Chul-min’s sword was only a B grade, but it was a perfect sword that completely changed the current mana weapon production system. The problem was that such swords were only issued as supplies. It seems that the reason Wang Wi-ryong was anxious to buy the sword for a large amount of money was to somehow preoccupy the sword and learn the skill.”
“… what is that?”
The meeting room turned upside down.
A sword that would change the mana weapon production system.
John Harrison was stunned by the fact that the Korean Empire had not only military power but also such technology.
I got goosebumps at the same time.
What kind of existence is Roman Dmitry anyway?
Since he appeared, the Korean Empire’s actions have completely deviated from common sense.
said John Harrison.
“There is no need to make a fuss just yet. Just because we noticed the existence of a new technology, the Korean Empire, which did not properly preserve its secrets, may have a special purpose. First of all, we should focus on finding out the identity of the technology as much as possible. If it is really that much technology, countries that are weeded out in the new era will not survive.”
“All right.”
It wasn’t just the US.
France Italy Spain etc.
What could have been a simple incident at first caused Wang Wi-ryong to make a fuss, and the whole world focused on the existence of the sword.
a day or two like that.
Time passed.
The truth of the sword could not be revealed, and everyone wondered what was going on in the Korean Empire.
Then one day.
[We are going to hold a technology presentation in the Korean Empire.]
One contact.
A place has been set up for the world to see the truth.
* * *
Last month.
Time passed like light.
Ahead of tomorrow’s technology presentation, Kim Joon-hyeok moved to look around the city.
“one-!”
hook!
“Douul-!”
hook!
Training Ground 1.
There, the training of the guards was in full swing.
The guards trained with Kang Min-ho at the head, and they mastered the martial arts of the guards and entered a completely new realm.
Whenever joint training was conducted inside the Korean Empire, people mentioned the Suhodae as the most difficult enemy.
Thoroughly specialized in defense, the sword method gave inconvenience to opponents.
and especially.
Kang Min-ho has developed by leaps and bounds.
He seems to have gained enlightenment during the last war, and he has something beyond the current A-rank.
Recently, there has been a lot of talk about Lee Tae-sung and his confrontation inside.
It is certain that Lee Tae-seong had the upper hand, but when Kang Min-ho was determined and defended, Lee Tae-seong was unsure if he would be able to break through.
took a step
When we reached the second training ground, this time we saw the members of our direct control dealing with Lee Tae-seong.
Caang!
Kakakakakang!
It was fierce.
The members of the direct control unit, who had learned the Sura swordsmanship, fiercely counterattacked, and Lee Tae-seong showed his presence in the fierce moment when his throat seemed to be flying at any moment.
His twin swords moved explosively, overwhelming the members of his direct control.
Lee Tae-seong, who overpowered the members of the direct control by himself, was also great, but the direct control members who dealt with Lee Tae-seong were not the same as they used to be.
only one month.
It wasn’t barely.
After the war ended and peace was restored, the soldiers of the Korean Empire developed day by day.
Same with other training grounds.
Not only the guards and direct-controlled units, but also ordinary soldiers underwent basic training, and everyone became a strong army to the extent that it would not be strange even if they were put into war right away.
This was because of the Roman Dmitri principle. Roman Dmitry clearly distinguished the troops fighting the war.
In case of emergency, ordinary people should also have the strength to resist, but for those who have established themselves as professional soldiers, support was provided to the extent that they did not have any problems in their livelihood even if they devoted themselves to training.
Of course, that cost a lot of money, but knowing Roman Dmitri’s plan, I wasn’t worried about that at all.
It was then.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Explosions were heard in the distance.
I couldn’t confirm it myself, but I knew it was the sound coming from the hundred-day magic training ground.
‘Everyone was surprised when the white-clad wizard changed his name to Kim Pan-seok. Because I couldn’t understand why he abandoned his reputation. However, I dare to guess that the change of name to Kim Pan-seok is highly likely to mean that he will devote himself to the Korean Empire. In fact, after abandoning the name Park Min-woo, Kim Pan-seok was more sincere than anyone else in training for 100 days. To the point where I didn’t do anything except training for a whole month.’
period of upheaval.
Everyone tried with evil.
Everyone knew that as the Korean Empire developed rapidly, there was no place for those who were weeded out.
continued to walk
Incheon was prosperous enough to be unrecognisable.
After the catastrophe was over, the city was quickly reorganized, and with the support of Roman Dmitry, what it had been trying to achieve was applied to Incheon.
People initially questioned whether Incheon was suitable as the capital of the Korean Empire.
However, now Incheon has turned into the busiest city in the Korean Empire.
solid walls.
A system that fits perfectly.
Kim Jun-hyeok ran wild on the stage of Incheon.
Roman Dmitri gave him wings, and he proceeded with the work for Incheon and the Korean Empire one by one.
tall.
I stopped walking.
The street of artisans was in front of me.
A sight never seen before.
took a step again
Looking around, I saw the craftsmen emitting hot heat, and the craftsmen were immersed in their work, ignoring Kim Jun-hyeok’s existence.
Park Gwang-deok’s actions influenced the entire artisans of the Korean Empire.
As the news that the people of the artisan association had sworn allegiance to the Korean Empire and were working with full support, artisans who had been living in seclusion began to appear one after another.
like that.
street is complete.
Just as there was a blacksmith’s street in Dmitri, a separate space was prepared for them in Incheon.
where we finally arrived.
There was a man there.
Appearing in the scorching heat, he expressed a strong presence with his white hair hanging down.
“Are you ready?”
his name.
It was Park Gwang-deok.
He, who had lived here for the past month, looked at Kim Jun-hyeok and said with a firm voice.
“yes. Perfectly prepared.”
Kim Junhyeok laughed.
Beyond Park Kwang-deok.
The battlefield-like workshop proved his efforts.
“Then let’s move on. Shouldn’t we prove our efforts at the upcoming technology presentation?”
technology presentation.
At the event attended by countries from all over the world, Kim Jun-hyeok’s heart began to pound.
