Chapter. 11. Wizards of Wizards (9)
****
Speed Wagon. Dana Elisha Hyacinth.
Recently, she had a problem.
“Beep. Target eye-facial recognition. [Negative emotions 43% / Positive emotions 36% / Unidentifiable emotions 21%]. Radish water. I will give you water. Master’s water intake. Water is essential for the human body. “I will give you water.”
“…Haaa. “Thank you, Genie.”
Dana sighed as she accepted the cup of water barely handed to her by the broken Housing AI ‘Genie’, her last remaining personal asset.
He lost his foundation and all the people he worked with, and was barely able to escape to Area 47 through Dom’s rescue team. she. Normally, she would have had to fight against the bitter cold on the outskirts of the dome like other refugees, but thanks to the special treatment given to her by the people here, she now occupies a small but private room in the warm administrative medical wing.
A bustling city overlooking the window and a feast of bonfires surrounding it.
“…You look like a princess trapped in a tower.”
As she thought about that, she smiled without realizing it. The problem is that she is playing the role of a prince. The princess who is trapped in the tower made of 0 and 1 is the professor who brought her here, and she has to watch him struggle to get out of a reality that she cannot even touch.
No, I won’t just watch. At least I don’t want him to feel like he’s struggling alone.
“How did I meet such a unique person from beginning to end?”
She was watching a video recording of the professor playing that had been updated about an hour ago.
A life as cheerful, crazy and authentic as always. If it weren’t for his situation as a prisoner, it could be considered a reward for his hard work so far.
While she was happily watching and chatting with the people in District 47, what caught her eye was a note the professor had left for the people outside.
=========
Urgent.
* List of all hero units currently active in and around the empire. Includes outline of appearance and features (photos must be included). The hero units that survived the 2nd era are asked to have faces when they grow old through an aging program.
* All maps of March World circulating in the community. Regardless of country or region. From the capital to the back alleys of the neighborhood.
* Summary of fierce battles in the history of medieval and modern warfare. Everything left on record.
* Among the videos left by a person who was broadcasting as a wizard, there is a book he read at the Magic Tower. Was it [Understanding Magic]? If you have a scanned file of that, that too.
* Cultural characteristics and history of each race in each country. Everything there is. If possible, the location and characteristics of major groups.
* Is it [GG Restaurant Travels]? There was a chef player who just ate and analyzed recipes. Divide that person’s video by dish.
* Location of major items in World 3 (I know there aren’t many because Emperor Tian Liu cleared the field. Just what was revealed)
* Highly profitable mine
* Trade center
* Natural disaster area

As I was writing it, I ended up asking for some kind of data mining.
I know I can’t give you all of this. But I’m doing this because it’s really necessary.
Without you guys, I keenly felt the empty space in my knowledge. Let’s pretend to save someone’s life and ask for something.
To be honest, if it weren’t for me that happened in District 30, everyone in the area would have died.
I have to pay it back then. I know that I can’t go farming right now anyway and I’m stuck in the basement of the dome, so I’m just running the manpower generator. Or they are working on a communal farm. It is obvious that all survivors protected within the dome area are mobilized for the wartime supply system. Then, while you’re busy pedaling, search the community with your free hand.
If I go out, I get a big kick out of it. Jeongmohae Jeongmo. I have a lot of money now.
My friends, if it weren’t for the war, I would have remained a single, unemployed internet ghost in my 40s.
I trust and entrust you with a deep and wide surplus like that of yours.
# The great hero of humanity and the savior of your lives, an unreasonable being – Professor Park Baek.
=========
“Phew!”
Ah really. It’s so characteristic of him that he writes with such force as if he’s asking me to look at it and makes me giggle too. I watched it several times, but I couldn’t help but smile every time I watched it.
What do you think is the attitude of someone making a desperate request?
What was even more interesting was the reaction of the people in District 47 who were watching the broadcast together.
=========
– Noru Drug: Hi, indeed. It’s not like they’re putting people in the air like this, so they’re blatantly setting up fishing grounds…
– Nutria Gena: That’s right, we’re second to none when it comes to what we have surplus, so it’s a shameful people!
– Holly: Um… isn’t that an insult? Is it good?
– Noroo Drug: Holly, I don’t know about you, but that’s just praising us as people who know ‘pungryu’ in this barren era where people devote their whole lives to just surviving and making money. Ah, I had an unproductive day today too. Isn’t this the ‘true’ humanity that distinguishes us from animals?
– Jokass: That’s right. Among the many community chat rooms, there are few that are as purely irritating and non-productive as ours. As proof, everyone who had skills or knew how to do something was dragged to an improvised production line, but most of our kids are working on the power generation line, right?
– Holly: Hehe. I’m at the hospital.
– Whales Are Flying: Farming…. I do it like a ghost…. There is no corner of District 45 that I haven’t touched…. Sheep…. I can’t believe I became incompetent in an instant….
– Heungan Mandu: Oh, not me. Even if you are in the Air Force, you are on the outskirts considering your military experience.
– Roru Drug: Woowoo! What a needlessly talented bastard! You don’t even deserve to be in chat room number 47!!
– Jokass: A capable bastard who sits down and pulls the trigger while pedaling so that we, the incompetent ones, don’t have blisters on our feet! They will pay you well and feed you well! Woooo! go away!
– Heungan Mandu: Don’t even talk. The rumor that the front lines were setting up gun barrel production facilities and rolling out machine gun batteries was true. The gunfire never stops for more than five minutes. In the past, dozens of mounted heavy machine guns that would have cost 5 million shillings are melted down and turned into scrap metal every day. It’s been three days since I came here, and I’m already having trouble hearing. So all machine gunners had pin signals inserted into the skin under the backs of their hands. Since I can’t hear commands because I’m deaf, I give orders by feel. I also had the procedure yesterday.
– Jokass: ….The whole world is a mess. Anyway, let’s get the competent and busy guys out of the way and help even the incompetent among us. I also downloaded the general strategy and hero unit list to the connection.
– Noru Drug: All hero unit affinity unlocking methods revealed so far have a list of farming routes and items most optimized for affinity. Oh, not all hero units. They don’t treat ugly guys.
– Jokass: If I list them all one by one like this, there will be no end. Unless someone steps up to the plate and collects and selects information, all we can do is dump a pile of type. Who is very knowledgeable in professional information….
– Noroo Drug: Yes. I’ve always been doing this kind of work…
– Highway Nacho Man: If it’s a professor’s job, is there someone who will turn on the lights and rush in? Ah, I think I know~ I really think I know~~~
– Speed Wagon: …I was going to do it anyway.
– Highway Nacho Man: Yes~~~
– Noroo Drug: Wow! Professional staff!
– Jokass: Wow! Jesu!
– Heungan Mandu: Wow! Miss Dana is now awkward because she doesn’t use umseum font!
– Speed Wagon: The way people spoke was because of the Internet before the war. At that time, whether in games or on the Internet, there were many strange people who would attack you if you revealed that you were a woman. After the war, I deliberately did not reveal it to protect my identity as an intelligence merchant. Now that it’s all revealed, there’s no need to be awkward, right?
– Jokass: Wow! Even polite words! Watch and learn, Noru! Doesn’t it look true just by looking at the letters?
– Roru Drug: Jokka.
– Roru Drug: If you hang an ax blade in front of your head, I’m willing to be honest.
=========
People who act so passionately for just a ‘favor’ that doesn’t cost a penny. These are people with a passion that is rare these days, or almost extinct.
But passion is passion and ability is ability.
The professor said he would take care of it if you gave him everything, but even just a small city with its intertwined characters, history and culture, from a group of petty thieves to the feudal lords and the divisions between the heirs, could be written in two thick books, so how could he give them all of that?
When a professor’s video is uploaded, you need to look at the background and situation, predict the future direction, and summarize the necessary information. This alone is a lot of work to do.
‘…Still, it would have been worth it…’
The problem is that the time ratio between GG and reality is 5:1. Five hours there is one hour in real life, which means that the professor’s video, which is automatically uploaded based on a day in the game, is additionally uploaded every 4.8 hours, 4 hours, and 48 minutes.
Time limit 288 minutes. Within that vast sea of information, the necessary information must be predicted, selected, organized, and delivered.
Even if Dana is an expert in this field, it is a physically impossible time.
If there had been more people, she would have stepped in to divide the labor, but the people in the chat room in District 47 alone were not enough. It’s not like everyone just sits still and does this. Because each person has to do the work assigned to them by the dome.
At the moment when I was thinking about such a problem, ‘she’ came. With a somewhat perplexing solution.
Knock knock!
“Sister~!”
“Dana~!”
“….come in.”
Whoosh!
The women who had been visiting her frequently since she entered the administrative ward here came into her room again today without fail.
“Wow! sister! “What is all this?”
“I’ve put it away, so can you please not touch it? You know what we talked about in the chat room. Information that the professor said was needed. “First of all, I organized and extracted the necessary information that can be used immediately.”
“That… already this much?”
“Everyone is desperate, so I can’t be the only one playing around.”
A girl so lively that you can’t help but smile just by looking at her.
Holly. Her real name is Holly Grace. She is the bane of Gideon Grace, the owner of the Marketplace.
It is said in the public that he stays in the administration ward because he is weak, but that is the only apparent reason. In reality, there have been so many kidnappings and assassination attempts that he was left with a large donation in the administration building, one of the most secure places in the dome.
“Holly~? Unlike other patients like us, Dana’s body is really weak, so if you bother her too much, she might leave right away. “If Dana, who is already weak physically, ruins the results of her hard work just because she’s bored… wouldn’t she end up overworking herself even more?”
“!!!”
Hurry!
“Would you like me to cut some fruit for you, sister? coffee? Dad said coffee is for working people…”
Haaah. This kid too.
“I’ll just accept your heart.”
I wish I could just leave, but if I do that, those bulging eyes will well up with tears. Dana was not cruel enough to treat people like that.
Still, Holly was pretty good. Just think of it as a little noisy beagle.
The problem was the woman dressed as an unsettlingly pretty nurse who came in next to him.
“Let’s see… Elven culture, Elven race, common skills, current interests of the empire and conflict risk areas… Wow! “You found a lot in a short time?”
“Because I have received a lot from playing around.”
“Well… from that perspective, I didn’t find much. As a result, we were unable to organize even half of the information that might be immediately useful.”
Her appearance made me feel more like a model dressed as a nurse rather than a nurse. The appearance of a woman who knows how to take care of herself to shine better and attract the attention of others. She had a small face with a lot of expression, and the curves that showed through her clothes were amazing. She was a lively woman that anyone would fall in love with when they saw her.
“Hmm…. If we were sorting them in order of importance, wouldn’t it be better to leave out the distribution of monsters in the Blue Line Mountains? If an elf were to act as a guide over there, he would guide you to the border of the area much more accurately than the information floating around on the Internet. Oh, you can leave out the information about the 7 Princes. Were there 7 princes, 14 princes and 3 princesses? During the early aristocratic war in March World, he went too far in the power war and was poisoned. “The only thing alive now is a fake put forward by the 1st prince.”
“That’s… definitely. Yes.”
Gorgeous and natural appearance. A much more in-depth knowledge of GG than she has, as she has been receiving information from GG for a long time. That face that no one in the wasteland knows.
In terms of influence in the wasteland, she is a woman who is almost as powerful as President Young, and even Dana, who has a strong background in intelligence, cannot easily treat her carelessly.
“Levitt. “Are you here to talk about that today too?”
“then! As the number one person in the industry, I guarantee it! “I guarantee that I will be able to make up for all the man power you lack in your worries right now!”
Rabbit Princess. Real name unknown. Currently, he has the most stable clear seed in the 12 worlds and is, in name and reality, the world’s idol with the most well-known name and face in the wasteland.
This woman, sitting on her hospital bed and bobbing her legs, is a tycoon whose annual broadcasting income is equivalent to the Dome’s entire defense budget.
Why on earth would a person like that wander around here and there, dressed like that, with a girl ten years younger than me?
“Rabbit. “Wouldn’t it be possible for you to create a shelter with a security level equivalent to that of the executive branch?”
“I used a private security team, but there were some among them who had different feelings. I don’t even want to worry about that. Also, apart from security, there is no place where the power supply is as reliable as here and there is no error in the connection between GG and the server. For pros, even a 1-second difference in commas can have a big impact on their play. Even on paper, I am a ranker who receives support from the dome, so I can at least receive support for the playing environment.”
“Uh… what about clothes?”
“If you wear casual clothes in an administrative building where only researchers and doctors go, won’t you be noticeable? Then, rumors arose that Rabbit was staying in the administration building, and fans who wanted to die poured in, forming a mountain of poor fans’ corpses in front of the laser turret… Ugh! “It won’t happen.”
“Maybe that’s too much to think about…”
“I’m talking about experience. A common occurrence that happened frequently in the 12-building shelter I previously built with my own money. People in the wasteland don’t have a place to turn their hearts to. Most of them are mentally and physically weak. Once I established myself as an idol in the hearts of those people, the brakes disappeared. After blowing up a few shelters, I decided to just move in and live here. Hmm… honestly, the nurse uniform here came out pretty. Isn’t the style nice? “If you just tweak this a little bit, you can tighten your waist line nicely.”
As she said that, she proudly pressed her slim waist with her thin fingertips and suddenly bent down to face Dana.
“So have you thought about Dana? huh? huh?”
Dana’s face showed concern at Rabbit’s words. Yesterday, she barged into the hospital room saying she had come to meet a new guest, and as soon as she made eye contact with Dana, she screamed and made a suggestion.
It may be an immediate solution to her support for professors, which cannot be completed at this point, but it is a solution that is too unfamiliar to her.
“A broadcast. And that’s the kind of broadcast where all of my personal information is revealed. I have no talent for that. I’m not that good at talking and I’m not that expert at GG play…”
That’s right. As soon as Rabbit Princess, the undisputed No. 1 broadcaster in the industry, met Dana, she said, ‘Do you ever want to try broadcasting?!!!’ It was.
“Uuuuuup! If you are a non-expert, follow what the experts say! Of course, I am brilliant and agile, and like a cat, I boast of agile and lethal play – but! If that were all it was, it wouldn’t have been this successful. There is only one thing that I have contributed the most to get to this position! That’s right…”
Cheeoeook!
“me! It means I’m pretty! Because she is not just pretty, she is the perfect image of a woman who is cute, lovely, humorous, intelligent and sexy! A beauty that seems to have been specially created by God! Perfect acting skills that can suit any taste! Plus, a title that a man can’t resist, ‘a woman who’s good at games’! “I was able to stand at the top of this vast wasteland because I was a perfect woman and actress who could handle everything from a sexy lady to a girl crush!”
Rabbit, who was speaking as if making a declaration with one leg on the bed and one hand on his chest, reached out and grabbed both of Dana’s hands.
“In my opinion, Dana Elisha Hyacinth is truly a perfect gemstone! Yu-myeong Information Merchant, a name that everyone in the wasteland has heard of at least once! What a beautiful woman whose true identity is such a slender, cold, and intellectual image! Regardless of man or woman, there is nothing sexier than the sight of someone working professionally at their job! There is no need to start acting or do something big like broadcasting. All you have to do is be who you are and do your job. Are you saying that viewers will flock in like a cloud? All you have to do is ask them to do what we can for the hero who saved the wasteland. Wouldn’t it be great if you added a teardrop to it? Mmm, romantic! “Does it make your heart flutter just thinking about it?”
Rabbit, as if he has no intention of accepting any disagreement, summons several small drones using the remote control and begins to settle down.
Dana hurriedly opened her mouth as she felt like she would proceed as is if she did not give an answer right away.
“There are some serious flaws in that assumption. The assumption itself is a proxy for the wasteland entertainment market that was a blue ocean at the time, and you are the only example to use as a sample, and more than anything…” “More
than anything?”
“…..I’m not as pretty as you….”
Putting aside all excuses, the reason Dana has been delaying answering until now.
Soft silver blonde hair that waves as if silver threads were spun, large eyes, delicate features, a neckline as elegant as a deer, and a deep collarbone that continues from there. A slim waist with no trace of flab, and a bust and hips that clearly show off their presence as if to deny it.
Even if she is competent, unlike her, who just sits in the corner of her room surrounded by electronic devices and scribbling about the community, as a professional broadcaster she is the best gamer of this era, and since GG requires players to do everything themselves, even in real life, she can cut down a platoon of variants in an instant with two daggers. She was such a great female warrior.
As she is also a woman, she feels intimidated by the presence of a woman in front of her who everyone recognizes as the standard for beauty in this era. Every time I lay eyes on that vibrant beauty, I look back at my pale and impatient self and think, ‘That’s only possible because she’s that woman.’ A thought would creep into my mind.
[professor? Oh, I saw it once last time. I became interested in what kind of person plays like that. I got lost after being chased by red-eyed researchers, so I showed them the way to the ward. I even held their hand. I was wearing different makeup and a mask, so I don’t think they recognized me.] Dana said
Rabbit was twisting his hair . Every time I thought of those words, I felt like bitter water was rising inside me.
I got interested. They said
that the two of them ran through narrow and crowded alleys to avoid people chasing them and
even held hands.
Even though she knew that Rabbit enjoyed her reaction, Dana couldn’t stop the uneasy assumption, ‘If she shows interest in the professor…’
Of course, this is just her opinion.
Holly’s face crumpled mercilessly after hearing Dana’s crawling answer.
“Wow, that’s unlucky.”
“I know yeah. “Isn’t it especially true that someone has something natural that they worked so hard to cultivate, but they themselves don’t know about it?”
Holly, who was carrying a peach with almost half of its flesh peeled off, nodded furiously, put down the tray, and whimpered and brought over the wall mirror that was hanging next to it.
“Hey~ Sister Dana? “Can you please look here for a moment?”
“It’s okay if it’s Holly comfort. I just wanted to say that I don’t live up to Rabbit’s expectations, but I don’t particularly have any sense of entitlement about his appearance-” “
Quick!!!!”
Dana followed Holly’s words and turned towards the mirror, seeing Holly’s powerful appearance like never before.
“First, look at the person reflected in the mirror. What does it look like?”
What does it look like? It’s the same as always. A woman in her early 20s who doesn’t know how to decorate and is dull and lifeless.
“First of all… your skin is very pale….”
“Yes~ I have skin so white and transparent that it looks like it will stain if you touch it, like a princess who has never seen sunlight before~” “
Also…. her eyes aren’t that big. “
You have beautiful eyelashes that are so long you could use them as umbrellas, a cute nose, and cherry-like lips that contrast with your white skin and give off a color so pretty that you want to steal them~” “Oh,
well. … You’re too skinny to be feminine, and your body doesn’t look that good….” “You have a
body with clear curves even when wearing only hospital underwear without wires, and you have a delicate, thin style that you’ve never had to take care of in your entire life. “Yes~”
As Holly sang, Dana’s pale face turned bright red each time she denied her shortcomings one by one.
“Ayuu~ It’s cute! Miss Dana Elisha Hyacinth! Only you don’t know, but everyone in the world knows – a girl with incredibly rare natural attributes! Pretend you’re being fooled just once and turn on the broadcast. Are you just saying that you are collecting GG strategy big data for the public interest and all you have to do is work? “Do you say hello sometimes?”
“Just… just the way you work?”
“then! All you have to do is organize the materials to send to Professor Park like you are doing now! “I just work in silence and when I’m done, I turn off the broadcast!”
Something you have to do anyway. I just show others how I do it. Even if it’s only temporary, the number of informants will increase by nearly a dozen?
“It would certainly be of great help if the number of collaborators increased even a little, as we have lost all of our informants and cannot obtain quality information, but…” Taking advantage of the
opportunity for Dana to be slightly swayed by her continued temptation, Rabbit quickly got on with the job. .
“Holly! I’ll prepare the camera, so just help me with my basic makeup! The base is soft and the lips are provocative for a bit! “You know the feeling, right?”
“Yes, sister!”
“Now wait a minute! “I’ll do it myself…!”
Although he struggled to avoid the two sudden attacks, he could not escape the strength of the excited high school girl and Rabbit, a superhuman who dismembered a rabbit with his bare hands at the age of seven.
“Hey~ standby- cue!”
Rabbit grinned at Dana, who froze as soon as the red lights on the five drone-type cameras came on to indicate recording.
“Let’s see… Speed Wagon Hmm. The nickname is too dry. “I put a cute name in the title of the broadcast and gave it a slightly provocative taste…”
Rabbit grinned at Dana, who was trying to concentrate on work with her bright red face buried in documents.
Tiring-!
New! [Broadcast of the sickly beautiful girl Dana~♥’s GG official strategy book production!]
If it’s a girl crush, it’s a pure appearance that’s rare in this era full of women who crush skulls with real hammers + If it’s a GG person, ‘Who dares say [official]!’ A title that will make you run away in anger.
“Hehehe. Umm~ The couple is of one mind. Rabbit Princess said she was very happy that the two lovers were featured on the live broadcast together~”
The timing was good.
A situation where everyone has to dedicate a day to labor for survival, as if it were the beginning of destruction.
The dome had a duty to provide entertainment for people to keep them productive and not collapse in exhaustion and fear.
Broadcasting, the only high-tech entertainment of this era, is naturally the first priority.
If they had eyes, they would realize the enormous potential that a new broadcaster named Dana has.
‘What will they think if Professor Park comes out?’
My long-time Internet friend was a sickly beautiful girl, but she became my lover and suddenly became a world star?
In a situation like a cheap light novel, Rabbit felt his expectations rising to the limit.
Rabbit Princess. She was an ambitious woman.
She intended to dominate entertainment, an activity that is inseparable from human life.
‘Someday, if I keep clearing and secure the coordinates of GG’s server room. If ‘Rabbit Entertainment’, which was created with not just the coordinates but the money it has raised so far, secures sufficient force to reach there and runs Gedreutz’s game…!’
Wanting to be happy Wanting to be happy is a human instinct. Some people may say that entertainment is of no use when people are starving to death, but if we look at the causes of death in the wilderness, isn’t suicide always competing for 12th place?
If people don’t eat, they dry up and die.
People die when they run out of blood.
People die if they do not have happiness to look forward to tomorrow.
She didn’t think there was much difference between these three.
So I wanted to become the person who spreads the greatest happiness and rules over this ruined world. Exercising the greatest influence at GG, which can be said to be the pinnacle of entertainment in this era, was clearly in line with that dream.
There must be some reason why she was born with such beautiful looks in this era of blood and violence. At least I hope there is.
‘Hey~ Miss Dana? Please work hard and contribute to growing our market~ So that more people can pursue happiness and live?’
A small private hospital room in the administration.
There, a somewhat strange and extraordinary conspiracy was ripening.
