Episode 110 Recruitment of Rankers. ‘Climbing the Tower of Trials’ (3)
[The 8th episode of ‘Climbing the Tower of Trials’ will be closed for a week due to the circumstances of the broadcaster.]
Documents requesting final approval of the break and a file containing the broadcast length were placed on the table. .
“Whoa.”
Director Kang Byung-chan pressed his temple with his index finger.
If you sign here, the program, which is the hope of the broadcasting station, will immediately take a week off, and sales and recognition will suffer a painful blow.
but.
‘Can not help it.’
You don’t know what kind of catastrophe could happen if this video was exported as it is.
With the deceased who only cries out to avoid unconditionally.
A female host with a crying expression.
And even PDs who are actually crying.
It was as if a midsummer night’s nightmare had been crammed into one video.
‘okay. I can understand this far.’
The swearing came out of my throat, but I was able to make up for at least one mistake later.
the problem is.
The point is that the person who directed this hell road proudly appeared to demand his share.
‘Did I put cement on my conscience and even coat it with diamonds?’
At this level, even Satan would shake his head.
“Seriously, ask for the performance fee. Are these words?”
Byungchan Kang opened his mouth.
“of course. It is written in the contract.”
“We… Ha. I don’t know if you know, but this holiday will take a lot of damage. Rather, it is a situation where we may have to claim damages from player Kang Jin-hyeok!”
Kang Byung-chan threatened, but Jin-hyeok didn’t blink an eye.
“well. I just did what the contract said, right?”
got an invitation
I gave you tips accordingly.
Now is the time to get paid for it.
There was no problem.
“Do you think that kind of coercion will work?”
“yes. I think it will work. Actually…”
Jinhyeok took a breath.
And the words that followed pierced the opponent’s lungs deeply.
“Didn’t he collude with Lee Jong-soo, the CEO of BJ Entertainment, and exploit the BJs, and say, ‘It’s written in the contract, so if you feel unfair, follow the law’? I know that Director Kang Byung-chan was the one who moved the incident behind the scenes.”
A fact that everyone knows.
Director Kang Byung-chan secretly contacted big BJs to make up for the deficit of the broadcasting station.
Hearing the story of making a lot of money, some BJs with no conscience joined hands with him.
One of them was Lee Jong-soo, the CEO of Entertainment, where Jin-hyeok belonged.
And Jinhyeok came here to ask for responsibility for what happened at that time.
‘Lee Jong-soo died in a mangrove tree, so he will pay for his crimes. Not you.’
It wasn’t even a grandiose cause to avenge fellow BJs who had to quit broadcasting, but I wouldn’t want to see the person in charge of getting their boats full with back money.
I was thinking of getting the Magic Stone as well, so it was well worth the time invested.
“ah! Don’t be in denial or anything. because you know everything This is not something I heard from anywhere, but I was one of the parties to the contract.”
“…!”
gulp.
Dry saliva ran down Kang Byung-chan’s throat.
If the other person is really one of the BJs who signed a slave contract, no words will be able to fool you.
Above all, the opponent is an S-class, not a bottom BJ.
Isn’t that also the most talked-about player in the world?
If I told a clumsy lie…
‘Damn it, my throat looks like it’s going to fly off.’
Kang Byung-chan felt his head spinning as if he had anemia.
He loosened his tie and fanned it with his hand.
I tried hard to roll my head, but I couldn’t come up with a sharp number that could get me out of this situation.
“…All right. magic stone. We will pay you right away. But can I just make a phone call before that?”
A phone call…
It looks like he’s trying to get advice somewhere or send an SOS.
well.
Whatever you do. whatever you plan
All of that will only result in tightening your neck even more.
Jinhyeok was already reading all of Kang Byungchan’s numbers from up there.
“Do by that way.”
It is enough to answer with a smile.

30 minutes later.
Kang Byung-chan and Jin-hyeok headed to a large warehouse located in the basement of the broadcasting station.
This place was once used as an underground parking lot, but after the arrival of the Tower of Trials, its use changed to a warehouse for storing various items, especially magic stones.
‘Precisely, it must be used to store things for tax evasion or lobbying.’
Jinhyuk looked around as if he was curious.
Like a facility built with state-of-the-art facilities, iris or fingerprints were required to pass through a single door. It is a tight security comparable to that of a military facility.
Let’s go through the security door a few times like that.
[Director ‘Kang Byung-chan’. Approval has been completed.]
Finally, the warehouse door opened and a mountain of magic stones appeared.
“Hoo.”
An exclamation flowed from Jinhyeok’s mouth.
I’m not exaggerating, to the extent that it really touches the ceiling of over 10m. The amount of magic stones in this place was beyond imagination.
My eyes were sore, so if I tried to describe it any more, it would only hurt my mouth.
Right then.
Kang Byung-chan, who was standing with a stiff face, cautiously opened his mouth.
“I heard from PD Choi that player Jinhyeok Kang is trying to absorb the magical power in the Magic Stone. Is what I heard right?”
“yes. I intend to use it for that purpose.”
“Then can I make a suggestion?”
Kang Byung-chan’s voice trembled slightly.
Can you feel how much you struggled for 30 minutes to get this word out?
cute.
What’s the point of staring at me like a puppy?
Jinhyuk smiled and nodded.
“Let’s listen.”
“As you probably know, the amount of magic stones we have… is beyond imagination. It’s the lowest-grade magic stone, and I have about 35,000 of them. We will provide it to Jinhyeok Kang player indefinitely. until 7:00 tomorrow morning. It means that we will provide you with everything you can absorb.”
Kang Byung-chan said as if he had a lot of heart.
However, in Jinhyeok’s eyes, the intention was clearly visible.
‘The magic crystal’s absorption rate is said to be atrocious.’
No matter how good the absorption rate is, it would take more than 5 minutes for a player to absorb one low-grade magic stone.
As long as there was a time limit of 7:00 in the morning, no player could absorb 500 million won worth of magic stones.
In other words, the piled up magic crystals were good bait.
In reality, it is said that absorbing 100 million won worth of poop all night long would be easy.
Kang Byung-chan waited for Jin-hyeok’s answer with an anxious face.
An opportunity to reduce the amount of losses by a whopping 1/5.
The face of the swindler, who desperately wants Ho-gu to put all his money in, is probably similar to that middle-aged man.
good.
Let me fish you if you so desire. well that’s difficult
“All right. until 7:00 tomorrow morning. I will only use as many magic stones as I can absorb.”
“Heh heck! Am I really?”
“What are you so surprised about? Like catching a hake?”
“Haha… that can’t be. I just meant that it would be nice to have a mutually beneficial agreement…”
“Yes. yes. Do you mind?”
This is where you hear the dog whistle.
Jinhyeok waved his hand as if it was annoying.
Kang Byung-chan was worried that Jin-hyeok would change his mind. I quickly ran to the door.
Of course, I forgot to add one more word.
“Just in case, the magic stone has an anti-theft spell on it. Putting it in the subspace inventory would be impossible.”
“Do not worry. Then I’ll see you in the morning.”
end with that.
thud!
The door is closed.
[Remaining time: 11h:59m:59s]
Only 12 hours left until morning.
The timer displayed on the screen started to decrease little by little.
However, despite the situation in which he had to absorb the magic crystal in a hurry, Jinhyeok was in no hurry.
Instead, I slowly opened the subspace inventory.
‘I definitely said that you shouldn’t put magic stones inside. Didn’t I say not to take out things in the inventory?’
Therefore, the condition is not violated.
“Our sweet potato. Come out.”
Jinhyeok stretched his palm out beyond the subspace inventory.
OK.
Waddling!
A reptile with black skin and yellow eyes walked out.
ancient species. It was sweet potato.
“mosquito!”
“Yes, yes. Were you very lonely being inside?”
Jinhyeok hugged the sweet potato and loved it fiercely.
Sweet Potato also licked Jinhyuk’s cheek with his tongue. This must mean it’s nice.
The cool touch and tilting of the head were insanely lovely.
“It’s nothing else. I called because I thought I was hungry.”
35000 magic stones.
Certainly, the amount is so large that the average player will run out of exhaustion after absorbing it.
However, if it is an ancient species that has just hatched from an egg and is spewing out an enormous appetite… The number
of magic stones here is by no means large.
Rather, it is insufficient.
“mosquito?”
Sweet Potato moved her head left and right cutely. At the word “feed,” the little tail waggled.
“okay. Everything in front of me is your mosquito.”
so.
“Eat them all and throw them away.”
Jinhyuk sighed coldly.
There was not a hint of sympathy or hesitation in it.
‘I looked like an idiot who didn’t even know the absorption rate
.
I’ll make you realize how stupid it was to the extent of pulling up the roots of the pillars of the broadcasting station.
***
The next day.
Director Kang Byeong-chan, on his way to work, continued to hum.
I couldn’t help but be excited.
Thanks to PD Choi’s advice, I was able to make up for a significant loss that was difficult to pass on.
In addition, the corners of their mouths stretched upward at the fact that they could take a shot at the cheeky kid who gave them a shot with a calm face.
‘Money is money, but this is more exciting.’
As long as you can’t be friendly with the other person anyway. Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to sleep comfortably at night?
It is said that after the 8th remission, when the vacation was decided, the Heukun Guild and the Chinese Guild will send a big ranker.
There was no doubt that the program would continue to walk on the solid road in the future.
“Oh, are you here? Chief. good morning.”
One employee bowed 90 degrees.
“uh. okay. Good morning to Deputy Park. Don’t sweat too much from the early hours and drink a cup of coffee at a time. haha.”
Although it was Kang Byung-chan, who was famous as a tiger.
As much as today, I burst out laughing with a benevolent face.
Light steps followed.
After Kang Byung-chan put down his briefcase in his office, he received a report from his secretary of the schedule he had to do today. And immediately headed to the magic crystal storage warehouse in the basement of the broadcasting station.
pounding! pounding! pounding!
My heart beat fast with anticipation and excitement.
‘Now then, how many magic stones did our celebrities absorb?’
Kang Byung-chan rubbed his palms and opened the door.
however.
“What the hell happened to this…”
Kang Byung-chan, who checked the inside, had to breathe in vain.
The gruesome sight inside is hard to believe.
“It’s nonsense. Where did all that much go!”
It is empty.
All of the 35,000 magic stones had disappeared.
All that was on the floor were fragments of debris that seemed to have been magic crystals.
“mosquito!”
A reptile lying around while holding on to its full belly with its short legs.
and.
“ah. Director, are you here? I’m sorry, but if there are any leftover magic stones, can I get some more?
Only Jinhyeok, who was smiling the brightest in the world, was left.
