Chapter 163 – Expedition (1)
The Great Monster Beserk.
Beserk is said to be the monster of the apocalypse called Cataclysm, and it is said to have been more overwhelming than any other monsters.
All the heroes in the world couldn’t have done it even if they joined forces, so the strength was indescribable.
However, in the end, Cataclysm was officially brought to an end as it was defeated by the Great Voice and the Seven Apostles.
Of course, the truth was the seal, not the church, but the known facts were so.
When Seo-jun, Uiseong, and the members of the Dream Team arrived at the Pro Hunter Association, a man approached Seo-jun.
He was a middle-aged man in his 40s with a familiar face.
It was Park Yoo-min, head of the Dungeon Management Department of the Pro Hunter Association, who had visited Seo-joon the other day.
“I was waiting. Come this way.”
Park Yoo-min guided Seo-jun and his companions as if he had been waiting for Seo-jun to come.
Park Yoo-min stopped walking when he reached the president’s office.
“Come in.”
Click.
Seo-jun opened the door to the president’s office, and there were sword stars, spirit stars, and demon stars.
And even Jung Ji-min and Lee Tae-beom, the president of the association, were gathered together.
“Did you come?”
Seo-joon turned his head at the sudden demonic voice.
And Seo-joon could see Maseong smiling calmly while holding a cane.
Her body still looked uncomfortable, but there was a clear difference from the last time she had no energy to speak.
The complexion of the face also improved considerably.
“Maseong-nim. Are you feeling well?”
Meanwhile, Seo-joon entered the office of the president of the association.
Following Seo-jun, the rest of the party entered the office of the president of the association.
Maseong said with a bright smile as if welcoming Seojun and the others.
“Of course. Thanks to you, I’m gradually recovering my health.”
Then Maseong limped and approached Seo-jun.
“I really… don’t know how to thank you.”
Maseong made an expression as if he had received a favor that could not be repaid.
From the point of view of Hagisa Maseong, it could be seen that Seo-jun saved his life twice.
The demonic reaction he was seeing now was probably a natural situation.
“Oh no. What have I done? It is thanks to Uiseong-nim’s good treatment.”
However, Seo-joon was just uncomfortable with that demonic nature.
‘If you do this, you can’t say that you accidentally destroyed the house…’
Because Seo-joon destroyed Maseong’s house in the first place!
“It is true that Uiseong made an effort… but without you there would be no Uiseong.”
However, Maseong, who did not know that fact, was just grateful and proud of Seo-joon.
Seeing such a demonic appearance, Seo-joon shook off his thoughts.
‘All I have to do is have Youngseong and I live in the Dream Team building.’
Then the Dream Team building would be cramped, but that’s okay if you expand it.
I was thinking of expanding the building anyway, even for the Atlas daily task.
But…
Come to think of it, the money to repair the Dream Team building had evaporated.
‘…… shit.’
Seojun let out a deep sigh.
Then I slowly looked around.
The Sword Star, the Spirit Star, the Devil Star, and the Uise Star.
Korea’s cataclysmic heroes, except for Amseong, were gathered together.
And Jeong Ji-min and Lee Tae-beom, the president of the association.
In fact, it was safe to say that all Korean hunters were gathered here.
A situation that hadn’t happened since the end of Cataclysm.
Seojun slowly opened his mouth.
“I would like to hear more about it.”
At the same time as Seo-joon’s words, the air in the room settled heavily.
Eventually, Lee Tae-bum handed Seo-jun a small piece of paper.
Seo-joon accepted and read it.
It was a short message stating that Beserk would be released soon.
When Seo-joon raised his head again, Lee Tae-bum said.
“This is a message from Amseong-nim to our Pro Hunter Association.”
Seo-joon was a little surprised at Lee Tae-bum’s words.
Amseong said he would leave Korea to investigate Jinrihoe.
At the end of the investigation, it seemed that something had been found out.
The question is, why did you leave it to the Hunter Association instead of Seojun…
‘What happened?’
Seo-joon put the matter aside for the time being because of a possibility that did not come to mind right away.
The important thing is that Beserk will be released soon.
And seeing the heroes gathered like this, I was able to guess the general situation.
“Is there no way to stop Beserk…?”
The Great Monster of the End, Beserk.
If Beserk is freed, the world will once again face an era of cataclysm.
Then countless people were sacrificed and no one could be sure what the result would be.
Whether it would be the end or another salvation.
no one knew that
And right at that moment.
“Wait a minute.”
Suddenly, Seoyoon shouted in a puzzled tone.
When I turned my head and looked, there was not only Seoyoon, but also Minyul, Suyeon, and Lee Ha-yoon.
Everyone was making puzzled faces.
Eventually, Seoyoon looked at Seojun and said.
“Besercrano? Are you referring to Beserk during the cataclysm?”
Seojun nodded slowly.
Then Seoyoon said with a look that she said something nonsense.
“Beserk is already dead. And then the cataclysm ended, and all of a sudden…”
That moment.
“I think the time has come for you to know the truth.”
Youngseong said to Seoyoon with a calm expression.
“The truth… is it?”
Seoyoon’s expression was still bewildered.
Spirituality began such a long story.
The truth that existed on the day the cataclysm ended.
The ugly mask that Jinrihoe has been hiding for a while.
The long story continued, and each time the team members were more and more tinged with astonishment.
#
“Three worlds…”
“How could that be…”
“I can’t
believe it…” After the long story of spirituality, each member of the team showed an expression of disbelief.
To be honest, it was an incredible story.
It was a story that could be dismissed as a low-level joke.
However, the person who brought up the story was Youngseong.
Besides, the heroes of cataclysm gathered here.
Their expressions proved that what they had just heard was true.
I couldn’t believe it if the situation was like this.
“Leader. Did you already know, Captain?”
Seojun slowly nodded at Minyul’s words.
Then, the faces of the team members became even more shocked.
They looked like they were fighting alone all this time.
Seojun had nothing to say.
Because there was also Seo-joon’s fault that he didn’t tell in the first place.
Seo-joon asked the heroes, leaving behind his teammates who were speechless.
“Then what happened in Greenland?”
According to Calia, Beserk was sealed away in Greenland.
It was also for this reason that the main body of the Jinrihoe, which was located in the United States, moved to Greenland.
So if Beserk was released, it was likely Greenland.
However, the swordsman’s answer was quite different from what he expected.
“It’s England.”
“yes? England?”
The answer to Seo-jun’s question came from Lee Tae-beom.
“Please take a look at this too.”
Lee Tae-bum handed a new piece of paper to Seo-joon.
When I received it and read it, it was scrawled in English in a fancy cursive.
‘Uh…’
I didn’t even recognize what was written on it.
When Seo-joon raised his head, Lee Tae-bum smiled and continued.
“This is a secret letter from the Queen of England to Korea. Briefly about the contents…”
Unbearable dungeon twists are taking place in England.
Please help me if you can.
Lee Tae-bum continued to speak.
“As Hunter Kim Seo-jun knows, Europe was in a state of confusion due to the runaway of the Distortion. But even that was gradually stabilizing…”
Seeing Lee Tae-bum’s speechless appearance, Seo-joon slightly lowered his eyes and looked at the secret letter.
A riot of Distortion.
And the Distortion, which subsides and then suddenly begins to soar in England.
“You think it’s the aftermath of Beserk’s release.”
As if answering that question, the voice of the swordsman was heard.
“It may not have been fully released yet. If that were the case, England would have been in trouble right away, without having time to write a secret letter.”
Receiving those words, Lee Tae-bum spoke again.
“Above all… For some reason, Jinrihoe is not taking any action. The Queen must have sent cooperation to Jinrihoe first, but Jinrihoe is not moving.”
“Also, it is questionable why it was sent in the form of a secret letter. Rather, we could send an official letter requesting cooperation from all over the world.”
Taebum Lee ended his speech with an expression of incomprehension.
Certainly… it was a questionable situation in many ways.
Above all, he did not know if it was right for Beserk to be released.
There was a message of darkness, but the authenticity was unknown.
I also wondered why England and not Greenland.
So, there was a need to investigate.
“So my grandpas and I tried to go to England ourselves. But for some reason, I can’t.”
The voice I heard was none other than Jung Ji-min.
The first disciple of Demon Star and the next hero to succeed the weakened Demon Star.
It couldn’t compare to the demonic castle in its heyday, but there was no doubt about its ability.
“Ryu Jin-cheol has disappeared.”
“yes?”
Seo-joon tilted his head involuntarily at the sudden words of Jung Ji-min.
“I can’t see where he went. I don’t know if he ran away because he was exposed to the fact that he was cooperating with Calia, but even after robbing the rest of the guild leaders… they didn’t seem to notice.”
Somehow, while Seo-joon passed out, various things seemed to have happened.
“In this situation, if the grandpas are away…”
A situation in which the hero of Cataclysm is absent.
In a word, he seemed to be worried about burglary.
However, even after saying that, Jeong Ji-min didn’t seem to be very worried.
“Well, as long as you stay here, there won’t be any big problems.”
Seo-joon only laughed awkwardly.
“In fact, the biggest reason can be said to be this.”
Eventually, Jung Ji-min looked at Seo-joon and opened his mouth.
“The Queen of England mentioned you directly, not us.”
#
Immediately after the story with the heroes is over.
Seo-joon summoned his teammates for a while.
The team members had dazed expressions, as if they were still in shock.
Seojun paused for a while and then slowly opened his mouth.
“What do you plan to do?”
At Seo-jun’s words, the team members began to come to their senses one by one.
And Seoyoon asked first.
“Seojun-san… Are you thinking of going?”
Seojun nodded slowly.
At the same time, the expression of the other team members hardened at the sight of Seo-joon showing a spleen expression.
If the preceding story is true, Beserk could appear in England.
The Great Monster of the End, Beserk.
This was never something to be taken lightly.
“I won’t force you.”
Even so, Seojun was adamant.
That’s why Seoyoon couldn’t understand Seojun.
What is the reason for risking one’s life in another country to help?
This is a completely different story from Italy.
Seoyoon had no choice but to ask.
“Why… are you leaving?”
And Seojun’s answer was truly spectacle.
“I have to earn money.”
Startle.
For an instant, silence fell.
Seo-joon said he was going to make money.
The thoughts in the heads of the team members began to spin furiously.
Going to earn money was a situation where money was scarce right now.
However, the problem was that before coming here, Seo-joon took about a trillion from them.
A staggering amount of 3,575 billion combined.
Still, going to make money means spending all that money…?
“……!”
“……!”
“……!”
“……!”
The faces of the team members began to be colored with astonishment for an instant.
They looked like they were really crazy.
and.
“……!!!!!!”
Geomseong, who was listening to the story, felt as if he was facing Beserk
because he knew that Seo-jun had ripped off 100 trillion from Jinrihoe!
“What is this…?”
The swordsman was literally looking at Beserk.
And it didn’t end there.
“Poop.”
Seoyoon suddenly burst into laughter.
Starting with Seoyoon, each member of the team burst into laughter.
“Hagi-sa, if you think about it, I’m broke.”
“I need to earn more money to buy the elixir from my brother.”
“The Queen would be able to move the British budget, right?”
“Looking at it now, the UK’s annual budget is 1,200 trillion won.”
Eventually, each of them looked at Seo-joon with burning eyes.
And the heroes looking at those disciples.
“……” ”
……” ”
……”
“……”
The astonishment of the heroes was ascending one after another.
“Why am I the only one…”
Only Uiseong was sane.
I don’t know if I know the feelings of such heroes.
Seojun smiled and said.
“Then let’s all go make money together!”
#
The headquarters of the Jinrihoe, Greenland.
There is humility, mercy, kindness, diligence, and patience.
Five of the seven apostles were gathered together.
And above it was a great voice wearing a black hood as if to reign.
An atmosphere that sits down heavily.
The apostle of humility took a step forward and opened his mouth.
“It’s a report that Kim Seo-joon has left for England.”
The Great Voice slightly turned its gaze to the Apostle of Humility.
Along with the apostle of humility, the rest of the apostles lowered their heads and lowered their gazes.
【Isn’t the reason why I couldn’t see my fate because of Beserk?】
The will of the great voice was heard again.
【Lebanon and Alice must have failed to stop the queen after all.】
Dragon Slayer Lebanon.
The Dark Witch Alice.
These two were none other than Britain’s representative cataclysmic heroes.
I couldn’t figure out why the name was mentioned to the great voice.
The great voice only opened its will.
【Progress of liberation?】
“About 10%… progress.”
After that, the great voice did not open up any more.
The suffocating silence descended once again.
how much time has passed
“……Are you suddenly presumptuous?”
In the meantime, the apostle of patience took a step forward and opened his mouth.
The great voice looked at the Apostle of Patience.
The Apostle of Patience lowered his head and said.
“I think we need to prepare for Kim Seo-joon.”
“patience!”
“What kind of rudeness is that!”
At the words of such an apostle of patience, the other apostles raised their voices and shouted.
For what the Apostle of Patience had just said meant little more than the plan of the Great Voice.
The Apostle of Patience was well aware of that fact.
However, from the point of view of the Apostle of Patience, who faced Seo-jun directly, there was nothing he could do.
‘…… I can’t measure it.’
A Hunter with unimaginable potential.
As a direct example, the Apostle of Temperance lost his pulse and was beaten.
Fortunately, he was able to save his life through negotiations, but because of that, an unprecedented situation in which the ceremony was postponed occurred.
Who can scratch the plan of Jinrihoe?
That had never happened before in history.
However, Seo-joon carved a wound beyond the scratch.
The Apostle of Patience could not shake off this feeling of uneasiness that crept up in a corner of his heart.
The great voice took no action.
Literally didn’t show any action.
“Keugh…!”
Even so, the Apostle of Endurance could not come to his senses from the terrifying pressure felt throughout his body.
How much time had passed like that?
【It’s not that I don’t know your intentions. Patience.】
The will of a great voice was heard.
【However, the road has already been completed.】
The great voice turned around and saw.
And then when you want to leave the seat.
【I’m going to do it myself this time.】
A shocking will flowed beyond that.
