< Black Messiah (1) >
The so-called pot-bellied nature of Koreans.
This is used in a bad way, but in a different way, it means that they are a passionate nation.
Is that why?
People were so enthusiastic when the name of Jeong Sang-woo was widely reported in the overseas media, saying that the strongest hunter in history had appeared.
[Korea’s first S-class hunter Jeong Sang-woo!]
Sang-woo’s own fan club, which he doesn’t know much about, even prepared a huge placard when they prepared it.
It’s a really long picture.
It was then.
A sub-
space opened in the living room, and through it, Guard No. 3 and his younger brother Ji-woo jumped out.
“brother!”
Ji-woo hurriedly found Sang-woo.
Sang-woo, who was lying on the sofa in the living room, looked at Ji-woo with mischievous eyes.
“why.”
“Brother, look at this. It’s a hit!”
Ji-woo made a fuss and opened a hologram window through his smart goggles.
Light emanated from the smart goggles attached to the ears, creating a hologram screen in the air.
“What is this?”
Sang-woo checked the image that appeared on the hologram screen while questioning.
Floating there is a familiar platform image.
“youtube? uh?”
It was a channel that Jiwoo had created for the purpose of uploading videos of himself and Sangwoo.
What she claims is that she is a PR agent for Sang-woo or something.
Anyway, it was quite popular in the state of securing hundreds of thousands of subscribers before.
But the number of subscribers was strange.
[Subscribers: 2.31 million]
“You say you have 2 million subscribers already?”
“huh. Do you like it? Hehehe. After the typhoon news broke this time, it suddenly jumped up. Almost 2.5 times?”
Sang-woo was puzzled.
“It wasn’t like this when I was in the media before. what.”
“I guess it’s because it’s been reported all over the world that he has a high chance of being the strongest in the world. And look.”
When Jiwoo refreshed his browser, the number of subscribers marked as 2.31 million had changed to 2.32 million.
“It is still increasing in real time. Awesome, right? The comment response is also very good. If you look at the best comments here, oppa says he’s very handsome and cool.”
“Hmm, what’s interesting?”
Sang-woo speaks softly.
It was a bit strange, but actually, when I saw the fans gathered outside that house, it didn’t seem like being popular was that good.
‘It’s nice to like me, but how can I live if I’m like that all the time?’
So it wasn’t that exciting.
And seeing Sang-woo like that, Ji-woo responded that it was strange.
“Ah what is it? Aren’t you happy brother? Why is it so popular?”
“Fine.”
“why?”
“Are you tired? See you today. Even when you left school today, you had to come as if you were hiding in a subspace because of the people gathered there. How tired it is to think that it will be like this for the rest of your life.”
“okay? I didn’t really care. He is a strange brother.”
“Have you ever seen such a proud and strange brother?”
“…the personality is strange. Anyway, stop playing with the sofa.”
Ji-woo, who instantly turned Sang-woo into a strange person, went into the room as if steam had leaked.
Even in the middle of it, he looked happy while checking the comments running in real time.
“Ehh… I don’t know who’s taking that.”
Sang-woo mourned the future of his younger brother, who will live alone for a while with a sigh.
He regained his concentration, which had been briefly broken, and started to finish his work.
‘When using clone technique, a very small amount of mana inside the body swirls and scans the entire body. This mana escapes to the outside while remembering the data of my current body condition. Afterwards, it combines with the mana present in the atmosphere and expands exponentially, resulting in materialization and materialization. Being born like this is an alter ego…’
That’s right.
In fact, Sang-woo seemed to be sitting on the sofa and doing his job, but in fact, he was doing his job in the most comfortable state.
His job was to check and clean the dungeons inside the portals that were still remaining for the restoration operation in North Korea, which he was focusing on recently.
In addition to that, I was researching and practicing the biggest task I was facing right now, which was more important than anything else.
However, he was struggling to implement the skill himself, so his concentration was briefly broken.
The reason is simple.
Because the alter ego skill was too difficult.
‘If you look at the process, it’s simple, but the movement is so fine and complicated that the difficulty of implementation is crazy. Ha… to use this without system help. It was really the lottery among the lotto that I got the clone technique.’
Only then did Sang-woo realize his great luck.
‘Well, I haven’t realized an aria called the Archmage yet.’
Aria, the current co-representative of Heritage and a great sorceress who uses magic itself similar to the source of all skills from another planet.
Sang-woo, who lacks academic knowledge about magic, faced great difficulties in realizing it himself, as even she was still having difficulty reproducing the clone magic skill.
‘First of all, the best thing to do is to copy all the mana movements and reproduce them as they are… But I don’t know how to remember my biometric data as mana.’
Seodang-gae 3 years is said to recite the wind.
Even Sang-woo, who lacked the basics and relied heavily on the system, succeeded in reproducing the mana movement of the alter ego skill several times because of the mana control trained through mana breathing and storm core mana engine.
However, perhaps because he did not properly understand the principle hidden within it, the clone technique he implemented himself had never been successful.
‘How do you read biometric data? What kind of function is there to store data inside the intangible state of mana that I don’t know about?’
Sang-woo thought that there was something he hadn’t figured out yet.
That’s why Sang-woo was still training and using the skill.
And the look of Sangwoo like this.
It was very different from before.
If he was Sang-woo before he went through a body change, he would definitely
say, ‘Ha… let’s just leave it to the system. Nothing special.’
You’ll fall into the same indolence.
Because with his indolent mental strength, he couldn’t have endured such a blessed worry.
But is it because he also grew up once while going through a body change?
‘The system has changed my life. As much as that, the system has now become an indispensable necessity in my life. It’s to the point where I can’t remember the 20 years of my life that I lived without the system. But… I don’t want my whole life to be mortgaged by this system. I’m grateful, but I’ll have to take care of my life myself from now on.’
He did not take the warnings about the system that Oracle had informed him of, and after serious consideration, he decided to stand on his own.
That’s why I was training like this to be born again myself, not for three days.
‘Illuminati Lucas Anti-System Black Messiah… In addition, you don’t know when an alien race called Cranid will invade again, and even the system is unreliable. It’s not a safe situation at all.’
And from the point of view of a simple ordinary person who was busy earning and living day by day, he realized the current trend and vaguely knew what he had to do.
That’s why I’m still training.
Of course, his habits haven’t changed that much, so he was training in the most comfortable posture, ‘lying down’.
So, from the outside, it looked like he was lounging on the sofa.
‘Oh, that’s frustrating. I must succeed today!’
However, even after that day, Sang-woo could not succeed in recreating the clone technique.
[The level of the alter ego skill has risen.]
Although the level of the sorcery skill he did not aim for has gone up.
* * *
Korean passion heats up quickly and cools down quickly.
But this time, interest in Sang-woo did not fade easily.
< No more field monsters in North Korea >
< Opening of North Korea's first general hunting dungeon, 'Ghost Badger Dungeon' in Gaeseong > < Can North Korea be reunified as South Korea now? >
< Smooth portal cleanup speed >
It was because Sang-woo’s alter egos continued to remain in North Korea and were clearing the dungeon.
Moreover, the Korean Peninsula has always been divided.
Koreans’ interest in the fact that it will be unified for the first time did not know how to stop.
And another reason was because of interest.
“North Korea is a bona fide land.”
“Sibeol, all large guilds have occupied the country, so shouldn’t we go to North Korea and eat at least one dungeon?”
“Even if it’s a really stupid dungeon, if you eat just one dungeon, the estimated annual profit from it is at least 10 billion won. This is a business that remains unconditionally.”
“Let’s go to North Korea!”
Looking at the field alone, the North Korean region is almost completely restored.
Hundreds of dungeons without owners.
Because of this, the interest of hunter industry officials in North Korea reached its peak.
They worked tirelessly day and night to organize and build their own raid team. Since then, small and medium-sized guild hunters, excluding about 10 domestic guilds that participated for the first time, began to go north by applying to the country to participate in the restoration operation.
‘Dungeon Rush’ started like that.
Hundreds of thousands of hunters every day crossed Panmunjom and jumped toward the portal spread across North Korea.
Because of this, incidents and accidents have not ceased in North Korea.
“We took over here first!”
“What are you talking about? We just went out to see the dungeon core. Fuck off!”
“These c-bar roms!”
Disputes over ownership of dungeons were
common
. I won’t write this well bye.”
“Keuhuk…”
PK around items that rarely drop in the dungeon also occurred frequently.
This situation occurred because there was no control in North Korea due to the absence of the Hunter Association and the guards who manage and supervise the dungeon.
Besides,
“Stop it!”
“The seed bee is another slut.”
“Kill them all!”
Overseas hunters secretly invaded illegally along the coastline.
Since they had no access records, they did not hesitate to commit illegal acts and crimes.
Because of this, Korean hunters had to run away or fight unconditionally when they found Japanese or Russian or Chinese hunters.
That’s why accidents happen all over North Korea without time to rest.
But even there, there was an exceptionally peaceful place.
“Chief, are you okay here? It’s a fantasy-type monster dungeon that’s hard to find in Korea, but I saw a golden goblin before.”
“Hmm… yes, but it’s vague because it’s so CD-level and small mobs.”
Hunters open the hologram keyboard and diligently record the data while filming monster corpses scattered throughout the dungeon and around it as if it were a fair.
A falling star-shaped mark was clearly embedded in their hunter suits.
They were the Comet Guild Hunters.
But did they, who were clearly hunters, forget their duty?
Even though they were inside the dungeon, they didn’t have to worry about being attacked by monsters.
“…I don’t think there is anyone who can be called a boss mob. Uruk is the strongest.”
“I think we should record Uruk as the boss. The difficulty level should be set to low level.”
“Yes, I understand. Oh Sang-woo. Are you done?”
At that time, a series of hunters appeared next to the members of the Hyeseong Guild who were recording the data.
Those who were covered in monster blood were Sang-woo, or his alter ego.
One of the expressionless clones opened its mouth to reply.
“The dungeon has been cleared. Let’s go.”
Compared to last year, he was much more human, but his alter ego spoke and moved mechanically.
And the people of the Comet Guild followed them as if they were accustomed to it.
Yes.
The comet guild hunters were now following the alter egos to secure the exclusive dungeon for the comet guild.
