< Destruction (1) >
What is the awakening portal?
Sang-woo looked back at what he knew.
1. Unlike general portals, if you pass through an awakening portal, you will gain system abilities and force awakening.
2. According to the Oracle, awakening portals only appear around the metropolitan area around the world.
3. Other than that, there is no other difference.
It was about this.
‘Is there anything special? I don’t think there is. Is it just as important as a symbol?’
Through the eyes of his alter ego, Sang-woo watched with calm eyes as the members of the Comet Guild arrested the fallen Black Messiah members.
‘It’s great to be a real religion. Making people blind like that.’
Sang-woo fell into contemplation.
Since ancient times, people have relied on the fear of the unknown by believing in the absolute existence of ‘God’.
And until now, the God most people believed in was ‘Jesus,’ that is, the God of Christianity.
But a cataclysm occurs.
All kinds of monsters close to the demons that appear in the Bible are pouring in from all sides, and people who perform unbelievable miraculous supernatural powers have begun to appear.
“Awakening is a disprove of the existence of God!”
Those who first witnessed supernatural powers believed that it was evidence of the existence of God, and began to believe in religion more fervently and take refuge.
But there was a downside to this.
“I don’t believe in Christianity.”
Yes.
Awakeners were not particularly faithful religious people.
Rather, it was revealed after the cataclysm that atheists were the majority, which shocked people.
“My God! Why are you forsaking us!”
“How I’ve been looking for you! Is this an ordeal too!”
“There is no God!”
And as such facts became known, faithful believers in despair turned away from their religion.
But the weak human heart in an extreme situation.
They needed a place to turn to again.
So they set out to find a new god and soon found it.
That is the absolute God called ‘System’.
‘I thought the system was just a tool, but some people didn’t. I just thought it was useful. For some people, life can be everything…. But it’s not too much. It was so blinded by the rest that it was swept away in madness and degenerated into a pseudo-religion. That’s Black Messiah…!’
To be precise, it’s ‘systemology’, but Sang-woo, like the Oracle who leads the anti-system, said ‘Black Messiah’.
Maybe it’s because they’re not nice guys, but I felt that the negative feeling of the word ‘black’ fits well with them.
However, these thoughts are all Sang-woo’s impressions of the Black Messiah.
As a matter of fact, they never interfered with Sang-woo’s work, so he didn’t feel much hatred for Black Messiah.
Sang-woo pondered why he didn’t have such bad feelings about Black Messiah.
‘Hmm, maybe it’s because I haven’t suffered any damage. If I had been weak and had been beaten by them, I would have gone mad. But I’m strong now.’
He thought it was because he hadn’t been beaten by them yet.
However, as I thought about it, I felt that my thoughts were very dangerous.
‘This feeling that it doesn’t matter as long as it doesn’t harm me… What if I leave Black Messiah alone and they harm my family?’
Then I would be very angry.
Thinking that way, I began to care about the Black Messiahs who were running around the world.
Pyongyang, North Korea, quite far from Seoul.
However, Sang-woo did not even like the fact that an unknown pseudo-group called Black Messiah was going back and forth on the same Korean peninsula.
‘Should I meet with that religious leader and tell him not to work in Korea? Either build a deal or wipe it out completely. But I’m not crazy about psychopaths or revenge, and it’s ambiguous that I’m going out on purpose. You were stabbed by your conscience, and you didn’t even see what bad things the Black Messiah kids did?’
In the end, Sang-woo remains unresolved and frustrated.
Then, all of a sudden, an idea crossed my mind.
‘If you think about it, you haven’t even seen Black Messiah normally. The first time I saw them this time was because they were aiming for the awakening portal. If so,
you can remove the cause of the problem.
Sang-woo came up with an idea that no one else could.
‘Let’s get rid of the awakening portal.’
If you enter the awakening portal, there will be a dungeon core, just like a normal dungeon.
If the portal itself was destroyed by destroying the core, Black Messiah, who had clung to it while talking about the Holy Land, would inevitably fall away.
‘If it’s not because there is no dungeon core, it can’t be helped, but it’s worth a try.’
Sangwoo immediately focused on the Overmind skill.
The state of each alter ego that comes to his image.
Among them, he focused his consciousness on the alter ego located in the Pyongyang awakening portal.
“Come guild officials, we will try to attack the inside of the dungeon a bit more. Please arrest all the suspects and contact the Hunter Association.”
“yes. Then we will wait outside for now.”
The people of the Comet Guild took the fallen Black Messiah members out of the portal for awakening.
The alter ego who was watching it, no, Sang-woo.
He moved one of his two alter egos to explore the inside of the dungeon.
‘To a place with high mana density.’
Upon receiving Sang-woo’s order, the alter ego immediately ran like the wind to the depths of the dungeon.
Baba Baba Baba Bak!
A new sight unfolded after slightly escaping from the place along the path in the forest and the clearing located in the portal.
The appearance inside the exposed dungeon was a mysterious form of civilization that had never been seen before.
It was a different form, not a modern city, but the honeycomb-like houses located on the far-high cliffs and the emerald-colored river below the cliffs were impressive.
However, all the buildings were in a state of disrepair, and the only ones standing on the road between the buildings and the cliff were monsters.
‘It looks like a mole.’
The majority of them were bipedal monsters with mole-like faces and hands.
However, it is ambiguous to even call it a mole. Its face is round like a slug’s mouth, and it has a double chin and sharp teeth, making it look very disgusting.
‘It looks a bit strong, but I think it will be a C-class.’
Sang-woo secretly flings his skills out of curiosity.
[Chain Lightning]
The mole monster was shattered on the spot when it was hit directly by a thick bolt of lightning that flew from Sang-woo’s hand.
And the lightning streak also bounced off the monsters next to them, putting them in the same situation.
Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
A sight that looks like popcorn made of meat.
Seeing the fragments of monster corpses flying everywhere, Sang-woo felt embarrassed.
‘You’re so weak… I’m sorry.’
For some reason, feeling sorry for the monsters, Sang-woo jumped over the monsters and directed his alter ego to the place where mana was gathered where the dungeon core should be.
how much time has passed like that
After jumping over a cliff and crossing a river, the alter ego was able to find a dungeon core resembling a giant heart.
‘found.’
The dungeon core was spitting out the mole monsters it had been waiting for while squirming on the surface.
Monsters standing up covered in sticky bodily fluids like the amniotic fluid at birth.
Looking at the monsters, Sang-woo moved the remaining alter ego in front of the awakening portal.
‘See if there are still people left inside the dungeon.’
The clone in front of the portal went back and forth to the entrance of the awakening portal to check if there were people left.
Fortunately, the people of the Comet Guild seemed to be busy controlling the Black Messiah members.
‘It’s over here. Then the only thing left to do is explode.’
Sang-woo immediately moved the alter ego in front of the dungeon core.
Now it’s time to splurge.
[Nuclear Body]
The body of the alter ego wrapped in the battle suit started to burn like the sun and melted the suit in an instant.
An alter ego in the form of a man made of flame.
‘Oh, success.’
In the joy that the Nuclear Body, which had a low success rate, succeeded, Sang-woo moved his alter ego for a while.
Suaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
It is an alter ego that flies at tremendous speed with strong flames emanating from its feet, as if it were itself the propellant of a rocket.
‘This is the taste!’
It was already burning, so he couldn’t raise his voice and shout, but Sang-woo flew around the sky screaming joy inside.
And playfully, I went in and out of the dungeon core’s body several times (?) with a Nuclear body.
Whoa oh oh oh oh-!
Faaaaaagh-!
A dungeon core engulfed in flames melts in an instant at super-high temperatures and gets stuck when a dungeon core engulfs a hole.
Sangwoo went back and forth as if erasing with an eraser several times.
He had some fun, but his excitement soon cooled.
‘It will take me a year to erase all this. Let’s finish now.’
already bothered.
Sang-woo used one of his self-destruct skills (?), body nuclear reaction.
[Body Nuclear Reaction]
A skill that induces a nuclear reaction by selecting either nuclear fission or nuclear fusion using the atoms inside the body.
In fact, the body nuclear reaction skill was a skill to create and use nuclear energy, but Sang-woo’s proficiency was low, so he could not lead the nuclear energy as he wanted.
Is that why?
This time, when the body nuclear reaction skill was used, there was a sign of an explosion along with a collision, as it had always been.
It started to seep into Sang-woo’s body, which had already changed like the sun through the Nuclear Body skill.
Yi Lee Yi-yi-
The bizarre sounds that cannot be heard by human ears spread everywhere, and the body of Sangwoo in the nucley body was burned so white that it could not be seen with the naked eye. And
then
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
It blew up everywhere with a huge explosion.
At the same time, Sang-woo lost contact with his alter ego.
He focused his consciousness on the alter ego in front of the North Korean awakening portal.
Then, it was confirmed that the portal in front of the alter ego’s eyes had completely disappeared.
‘it’s okay.’
When you are so satisfied
“Oh, chief! The portal… The portal is gone!”
One of the members of the Hyeseong Guild, who were distracted, noticed that the portal had disappeared and screamed.
At those words, the other members of the Comet Guild, who were unaware of the situation because they had been closely monitoring the Black Messiah members, also opened their eyes.
“what! It’s really gone!”
“Why did that thing disappear?”
them upset.
Their leader, called the team leader, was also visibly embarrassed.
“What is this…”
He went to the location of the portal quickly without communicating with the Hunter Association through his smart goggles.
And the leader who diligently scoured empty space and the floor.
“Mr. Fuck! Why did this disappear! How much does this cost!”
It has already been confirmed that it is a portal for awakening, and if you have successfully secured a monopoly and proceeded with the ownership lawsuit, now your position and solidity in the Comet Guild have been confirmed.
However, his future had disappeared right in front of his eyes.
The leader ran wild in place with his eyes wide open.
And that was the case with the other members of the Hyeseong Guild as well.
“My bonus….”
“My lady, this time I decided to pick up a new Lamborghini.”
“what? Do dungeons disappear by themselves?”
“I don’t know either. shit.”
while they are sad
Sang-woo, who looked at them through the eyes of an alter ego, felt a pang for no reason.
‘I must have saved a portal for awakening… I’m sorry, everyone.’
I’m sorry to say I’m sorry, but Sang-woo removed the cause of Black Messiah’s entry into the Korean Peninsula like that.
Of course, later, instead of the awakening portal, he paid off the debt by informing the Comet Guild of the bonanza dungeon.
But until then, Sang-woo didn’t know.
The fact that the act of removing the portal for awakening was the trigger that brought forward the scheduled future.
* * *
[The 10234th system installation portal has been removed.]
The moment Sang-woo removed the awakening portal.
That fact was known every minute to a certain man.
The place where the man is is a black space with nothing.
Even with his eyes closed, he was immersed in contemplation while listening to the system message that came to his mind. He opened his eyes when he heard that the awakening portal had been removed.
‘Hmm… Lucas must be doing his job properly.’
He opened a complex hologram window that looked very familiar and began to check the log records that appeared on the system.
He seemed different from the other system users.
And the list of people who went in and out of the destroyed awakening portal he soon discovered.
Among the characters who were nothing special, there was one person with exceptionally powerful specs.
‘Jeong Sang-woo – an alter ego…’
He stopped checking the system log and started to find records about Jeong Sang-woo.
Then, information about Sang-woo, no, Sang-woo’s alter ego comes to mind.
…[15:37:50 Using Windwork Skill]
[15:38:33 Using Nuclear Body Skill]
[15:39:55 Using Body Nuclear Reaction Skill]
…Surprisingly, the skills used by the alter ego are intact in his record. remained in
‘The body’s nuclear reaction? Did you have a skill like this?’
And he manipulated the log record and uploaded a video.
Then
kkwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The sight of Sang-woo using the Body Nuclear Reaction skill came out as a video in the same way as when Sang-woo himself used the Overmind skill.
‘This guy must have been the cause.’
And by comparing the time the system-loaded portal disappeared, the man was convinced that the cause of the portal’s destruction was Sang-woo’s alter ego.
But he soon closed his eyes as if he had lost interest.
‘It doesn’t make any sense at all.’
Yes.
He is the man who created the system.
A man who can control everything with a system.
A man who wants to become a god himself.
It was ‘River’.
