< The Undead Master, and... (1) >
Sang-woo was taken aback.
‘Why is he doing this?’
What is she who is bad at expressing emotions?
I wondered.
But that’s it.
I didn’t bother asking.
Instead, he hugged Woohyun tightly.
I believed you would tell me when the time came.
Pat Pat –
Warm and wide arms of Sang Woo.
In it, Woohyun recalled a similar feeling to being in this arms.
It was wide and hard…
‘…Dad.’
It was the same feeling when my dad hugged me.
Only then did he know what he had seen in his dream.
‘Dad mom.’
It was the parents who had forgotten.
Missing father and deceased mother.
Those who can no longer meet again.
‘Still, I’m glad I met you, even in a dream.’
I felt like I was going to cry, but Woohyun held it in.
I just wanted to feel that feeling in my father’s arms again.
That’s why I dug deeper into Sang-woo’s body.
And Sang-woo just patted her like that.
Just like that… Woohyun falls asleep again in Sangwoo’s arms.
It wasn’t until some time had passed that Sang-woo became proud of his second awakening.
* * *
The fact of Sang-woo’s awakening was also conveyed to Woo-hyeon and Raven.
Woohyun was naturally delighted, and so was his master, Raven.
-Congratulations. disciple
Raven sincerely congratulated.
-Haha what? It’s all thanks to Master.
Sang-woo turns it into the master’s ball.
Raven just looked pretty like Sang-woo.
-Then, does that ability level exceed 1000?
-yes. Yes?
-haha. Then I’ll have to run towards the goal of 2000 again. It wouldn’t be too hard to get there. I can’t afford to neglect training.
Raven spoke seriously.
The figure of 1000 was reached after training and fighting for over a year.
If so, it seemed that he would have to put in that much more effort even if his growth was accelerated because of his alter ego.
From a common sense point of view, that is.
However, Sang-woo goes beyond common sense.
Sangwoo replied with a smile.
-Ay, I think it will be filmed at around 2000.
-hmm? Dude, are you saying that’s possible?
-yes. What is the realization I got this time…
He explained the realization he had gained to Raven.
It meant that if the body was coated with mana particles, its abilities would increase.
In other words, without having to catch monsters and waiting for their stats to rise randomly, as long as they had mana, they could freely raise their physical abilities.
A really groundbreaking way.
But Raven was puzzled.
-It’s mana coating… It seems possible, but is it possible to maintain the coated mana particles without disappearing?
-yes.
– Um… that’s strange. The way mana naturally flows. There must be artificial manipulation such as magic and aura to make it stand in place. And the power manipulated in this way is only temporary and difficult to maintain permanently. But is it really possible to implement it into the body?
-is it so? I’m not sure. I guess I just did it.
-…her.
Raven is lost.
Just do it.
In fact, if Sang-woo’s enlightenment had been so easy, everyone in the world would have heard about it and surpassed their limits.
-Anyway, that seems to be your own realization. To make your realization mine, I must make the same effort.
-Ah, you need to realize something with this much. Just imagine that mana particles gather in your body and coat each cell. It’s really simple.
Why is this easy thing so hard?
Besides, isn’t Raven a genius in swordsmanship, having been born in Tibern’s Empire’s guardian sword?
Sang-woo was frustrated.
-ha ha ha. disciple I’m already old. Even if you know your realization, understanding that realization is another matter.
-Hmm, is that so?
– Geniuses like you aren’t common.
Sang-woo felt embarrassed when Raven praised him as a genius.
-Are you a genius? no way I’m really stupid.
At that, Raven shrugged.
-If it’s not, then it’s not.
Although he replied that way, Raven had long felt that Sang-woo was a genius.
‘Having the skill of being an alter ego is also your talent. disciple.’
And it was his disciple Sang-woo’s own ability to use that skill to get to where he is today.
Because Raven didn’t think that even if others had the skill of alter ego, no one would be able to use that power as well as Sang-woo.
And Raven’s thoughts were just as proven.
Because Sang-woo has already broken through the second limit with his own strength.
In addition, with this, Sang-woo had not yet learned only the space attack of the Stormbringer sword method and the ‘God of Storm’, which was the final skill that even Raven had not yet mastered.
In every way.
‘I’m proud of you.’
I was grateful that Sang-woo became his disciple.
If there is a god of fate, he wanted to thank the god who guided him to himself.
That’s when Raven was soaked in emotion.
Sang-woo realized that he was different from others through Raven’s words.
‘Am I a little different from others?’
The days when I was addicted to games rather than studying.
There was nothing special about it, but I earned my tuition and pocket money on my own.
And from the time of awakening, he obtained the strongest skill ever, called clone magic, and used that power like a game to achieve growth faster than anyone else.
‘Come to think of it, I’m not without talent either.’
The same goes for playing an online game ranker.
The same goes for digging into and mastering computer languages to the point of programming macros by myself.
In fact, Sang-woo had some sense.
he just didn’t know
-all right. Well, since you have talent, you must be Master’s disciple.
-yes. ha ha ha.
-Anyway, Master. Now I have to move slowly. Because you can’t make fun of yourself.
-I get it. go go
-yes. If anything happens, talk to the alter ego waiting in the mansion.
After speaking, Sang-woo opened the subspace and jumped in.
In order to commit an alter ego to a full-scale hunt.
‘shall we start.’
The place where Sang-woo appeared after passing through the sub-space was outside the Raven territory.
There, already the corpses of the hideous Cranids were spread all over the floor.
Those are corpses created by his alter egos.
In fact, while he and Raven were talking, many of Sang-woo’s alter egos were already hunting.
It was to secure skill training and ability points through hunting as usual.
‘But now it’s different.’
Of course, things have changed since then.
The point was that you no longer had to expect stat growth only with the monster absorption skill.
It was because of Mana.
[Magic power has risen by 0.001.]
When the system message that the magical power increases comes to mind, mana also increases, although there is no notification.
Sang-woo poured this finely grown mana into his muscles.
OK.
[Your strength has increased by 0.001.]
Your strength has increased.
he laughed
‘This is it. Hehehe.’
It absorbs abilities with the monster absorption skill and replaces the absorbed mana with abilities.
There are 40 alter egos.
Excluding the alter egos for security at Sang-woo’s mansion and the alter egos for the Mantis Shrimp Works, an alter ego for standby at the monster dismantling workshop, about 30 egos remained, but these alters were enough.
Because the alter egos who displayed 90% of the abilities of the 1300 units were literally warriors of one-for-a-thousand, or one-for-one.
It wasn’t even a task to wipe out dozens of monsters per minute when using those alter egos to hunt.
‘Nodaji, nodaji.’
The 6 clones attacking the 2nd floor of Odin’s Tower were so aggressive that the hunting efficiency was not so good, but the rest of the clones went on a rampage on the planet Tibern instead.
크아아아아아아아아아-
키에에에에에에에엑-
사방에 퍼지는 죽어가는 몬스터들의 비명 소리.
The corpses of Cranids in the form of bugs stood out the most.
Cranids in the form of locusts, bees, spiders, and beetles.
I tried taming with beast training, but they were mass-produced monsters that were not very useful.
Nevertheless, like other monsters, they died giving Sang-woo stats and mana.
[Stamina increased by 0.001]
[Magic power increased by 0.001]
[Regeneration increased by 0.001]
[Vitality increased by 0.001]
……
Stats that increase exponentially.
Sang-woo laughed evilly as he converted the mana that came into it into his abilities.
‘Ability level 1500 Gazua!’
Sangwoo was in the mood to hit 1500 ability points today.
* * *
River, a man who was immersed in darkness like an abyss.
[Code OX983ALKQ… AJDM76 has unlocked the 2nd growth limit limit.]
He wakes up to the system’s unusual notice.
‘…it’s normal. I hear it often.’
Jeong Sang-woo, who has a rare skill called alter ego.
It was unusual, but from River’s point of view, it was just one of the ‘users’.
It’s just the fastest-growing top-ranked user these days.
That’s why he dismissed it as something that frequently pops up in the notice of unusual matters that he hung in the system.
Rather, the more users like Jeong Sang-woo, the more it benefited River.
This is because some of the mana collected by Jeong Sang-woo is absorbed into his own.
In addition, all the combat experiences Jeong Sang-woo accumulated were converted into data and transmitted to him through the system.
‘Rather, I learned the value of clone magic. He’s a grateful guy.’
A clone technique that creates a mana organism with the same ability as itself.
Using this alter ego, River had already started an endless fight with ‘the existence’ he was trying to challenge.
Because of that, I didn’t have the energy to pay much attention to Jeong Sang-woo.
River closed his eyes again to fully focus on his alter ego.
So, on the other side of the universe, a huge war was going on between a man who transcended human beings and an unknown being.
And… that meant the final day that Lucas feared was approaching.
* * *
After breaking up with Master, Lucas moved to clear up some suspicions.
He doubted his eyes.
After being mana-jammed, Lucas was looking for Tron Industries, where Elisa, who took over as Tron’s new CEO, had been secluded, to find out about the device that must have been made by Tron’s.
But what
“…it’s gone.”
A factory operating in full automation.
It was very dreary with all the equipment there stopped.
Most of the important equipment was not working, and even after searching the main control tower, all data was deleted.
How did this happen?
Lucas immediately tapped his smart goggles.
Then I called the intelligence team.
-Yes, Chairman.
“Let’s find out where Elisa Lon, the representative of Tronsa, has disappeared right now.”
-Yes, I understand. By when…
“Right now!”
Lucas shouted and hung up the phone.
‘…until Elisha.’
His complexion became serious.
In fact, he doesn’t even know what Elisha was like in the future he knew.
The important thing is that artificial intelligence with powerful powers like Elisa has disappeared.
It was very dangerous.
Humanity’s power has already become very strong due to the Awakener program, but if a transcendent being like Elisa made a wrong move, it could have broken the current flow she was making.
The current history that Lucas has made through the Awakened Program and Enlighten Group Black Messiah might become meaningless.
‘I need to get rid of the variable.’
Lucas was nervous.
* * *
Meanwhile at that time.
Israel was in an uproar.
A coverage drone, which was covering the scene from the air, conveyed the atmosphere of the scene.
-…This is what the scene looks like now. As you can see, Jerusalem has been ravaged by undead monsters that have suddenly sprung up! It is expected that the number will be counted in the tens of thousands… Chijijik…
Suddenly, the drone’s camera shakes and the screen becomes dizzy.
and after some time
bang!
The screen went black as if the drone exploded.
It appeared to have crashed due to an attack by an undead monster.
Because of this, the news presenter hesitated for a while, perhaps at a loss for words due to the sudden situation, then continued the process.
-…The on-site relay was temporarily suspended due to the shock. As much as that, the Jerusalem area is currently in a state of abigyuhwan, and the Israeli government is in the state of mobilizing the military. Travelers who are traveling near the Middle East, including Israel, should be careful about safety
.
Is it because it is such an issue?
Individual YouTubers were on-site reporting while taking risks, aiming for issues, so it was possible to watch the scene live in real time.
-Are the
numbers
of
undead
real
?
Breaking news! Famous Iraqi YouTuber Malik went missing after going to Israel!
└ Yes, it’s dangerous, but why?
└ It’s
self-employed
.
A huge undead monster rose from among those undead monsters.
Coooooooooooooooooooooo-!
A bipedal body with two rigid legs.
A long, hard tail that supports its body.
There’s a giant reptile’s head.
It was the Class A monster Megalosaurus.
And a man stood on top of it.
A dark-skinned man with black, curly hair that was grown haphazardly and fell down to his shoulders.
In contrast to him, his white smile.
It was Ramos.
