Episode 65. [Establishment of the company (1)]
After that, Kyung-hoon fought together with other awakened people.
Defeated monsters and saved people.
An awakened person with a proper weapon was different from before.
He was able to stop the monsters that attacked through firepower for the last time, and was able to end the lives of monsters that could not be penetrated by bullets.
Although it was not enough for the awakened people to deal with monsters on their own, if they moved together with special forces with sufficient firepower, they could easily deal with ordinary monsters.
And Kyung-hoon secretly defeated monsters that were difficult to deal with.
The domain of humans, centered around hotels, has gradually expanded.
After three days, the humans were able to reclaim a section of the city.
next day. A helping hand has arrived.
“It’s a helicopter! The army is here!”
One of the refugees in charge of reconnaissance was walking around the hotel and talking.
The sound of a helicopter rotor was heard from afar. Kyunghoon and Marcelo also looked out the window.
Combat helicopters were firing Vulcan cannons at the forest. Fighter planes passed by and dropped shells.
Flames rose above the jungle.
The sound of guns could be heard from the river side.
-Patrol boats are coming up the Amazon River. The damage appears to have been significant as the battle took place multiple times.
Eve, who was checking the situation with a drone, reported the situation on the river side.
“Are you finally here?”
Marcelo grumbled. But his expression was very bright as he spoke.
Kyung-hoon also looked relieved.
“I guess those who came out will be sorted out soon.”
The army had come to save this isolated city.
It was difficult to organize even the inside of Amazon.
Unless the entire jungle was burned down, an ordinary army could not deal with the monsters hidden in the jungle.
The army entered the city.
Parachutes came down from the sky and tanks came down from ships and came into the city.
The monsters that had been occupying the streets began to retreat into the jungle.
People in the city poured out.
People living in areas where humans recovered poured into the streets, while people from other areas waved their hands out their windows and climbed onto rooftops.
Although they suffered for several days and it was clear that they would continue to struggle, they immediately enjoyed the joy of being alive.
A festival took place in front of the hotel.
“Both of you come down!”
Sonya waved from the street.
Marcelo waved at me. Anyway, he also planned to enjoy the present.
“Let’s go down.”
He looked back at Kyunghoon. Kyunghoon shook his head.
Instead, Kyung-hoon threw him a cell phone.
“It’s a satellite cell phone. It has my direct number on it. Call me when things are in order.”
Marcelo, who picked up the phone with a puzzled expression, soon learned what Kyung-hoon meant.
“Are you leaving?”
“Yes. I finished my work, so I should go back.”
Marcelo looked regretful at Kyung-hoon’s words.
“Well, you shouldn’t run into soldiers.”
He greeted Kyung-hoon.
“I’ll be there soon. Thank you for saving this city.”
He was the only one in this city who knew about Kyung-Hoon’s activities.
Even though novel-like stories came out of the mouths of doctors and nurses, not many people believed them. Moreover, Marcelo, who was supposed to be with Kyung-hoon, denied everything, so the rumors died down.
“Why don’t you come down quickly? What are you doing?”
“Okay, wait a minute.”
Marcelo answered Sonya’s words again.
And when I looked back, the room was empty.
“Are you a hero after all?…”
He put the cell phone in his hand into his arms and left the room.
The black smoke remaining on the floor dispersed into the air.
The factory in Seoul the next day.
Omar and Jin Shawei were working in Kyunghoon’s studio.
Omar was carving the pattern as diligently as other times, but Jin Xiawei was lying on the table and groaning.
“Oh my, my head. Even if I am an awakened person, I guess there is a limit. I drank too much.”
Omar, who was carving a pattern, raised his eyebrows at her grumbling.
It was a smile that seemed unlikely to be noticed because it was far away, but it was impossible for Jin Xiawei.
“Don’t laugh! This is all a work accident. I need to get accident compensation from my boss.”
The jewelry bar built on the edge of Gangnam was more successful than expected.
It wasn’t a business bar where only men came, and it was a bar that even had jewelry on display.
I thought there would be a lot of women, but when I opened the door, I saw middle-aged gentlemen pouring in.
Of course, it wasn’t that women didn’t come, but her bar quickly became like a social club for the elite.
The secret to such incredible success was the liquor created by Jin Xiawei.
Thanks to the alcohol that gave off a strange feeling, people who visited once had no choice but to come back.
The alcohol she made was alcohol processed through alchemy.
It wasn’t as strong as the drugs I had made before, but just a little touch made it taste like it was on a completely different level.
Of course, she got scolded once in Hong Kong, but now that she has a good background, there was nothing to be upset about.
“Oh my gosh, Kyung-hoon doesn’t know the ingredients for a hangover cure. That’s the most important thing right now.”
She, who was lying on her stomach grumbling, stretched out.
“I can’t do that. I don’t have a boss anyway and I have nothing to do, so who’s going to say anything? Omar, let’s go out. They say a sauna is the best for hangovers.”
Omar shook his head. Thanks to being together for so long, Omar also got used to Jin Xiawei.
“Why is there nothing to do?”
At that time, Kyung-hoon’s voice was heard from behind her.
“It’s like this…”
Jin Xiawei sighed.
Omar, who was working, ran over and greeted Kyung-hoon.
“Thank you for your effort.”
Kyunghoon patted Omar on the shoulder.
“Omar, take a break.”
Hearing Gyeonghun’s words, Jin Xiawei looked at him with sallow eyes.
“No, why are you treated differently from me…”
Jin Xiawei’s eyes widened before she finished speaking.
I saw Kyung-hoon’s body wrapped in bandages.
“Where did you get hurt? You couldn’t have gone to South America, right?”
The whole world was buzzing with news from South America. Even in Korea, it was still covered as the main article.
Kyunghoon shrugged his shoulders.
“What about the potion? There was one. Could it be that you ate that and got hurt again?”
“Well, that’s how it happened.”
Gyeonghoon answered roughly and placed the items he had brought on the workbench.
It was a large icebox.
Jin Xiawei narrowed her eyes and glared at the box.
“It looks like something you shouldn’t open…”
But Kyung-hoon didn’t stop and opened the icebox.
Inside the box was a huge gallbladder buried in a bag of ice.
“No way…”
“That’s right. The main ingredient of the potion.”
“Did you get hurt that bad trying to save this?”
In fact, most of the injuries were caused by catching snakes, so she wasn’t wrong.
Jin Xiawei stared at Kyung Hoon. It was the expression of an older sister seeing her younger brother acting foolish.
“I can’t even rest like this.”
She sighed and sat down. She looked at the gallbladder with a disgusted expression and started working.
“You’ve made quite a bit of money. Now, give me a proper studio. Let’s hire more people.”
Jin Xiawei grumbled while working.
As she said, the jewelry bar’s jewelry sales were significant. Thanks to the spread of Al-Eum-Al-eum, sales of jewelry posted on the Internet also increased significantly.
But unfortunately, it wasn’t a lot of money yet. And the amount from the jewelry sale was just money to use in Kyung-hoon’s name.
-Purchasing from a pharmaceutical company seems possible. The amount is too large so some coordination will be needed, but it won’t take long.
But that wasn’t the only money Kyung-hoon had.
There were tens of billions of dollars made overseas as a result of this incident, and the EV funds that were carefully laundered and brought into Korea were enough to buy a small pharmaceutical company.
“Let’s sign a contract right away. There’s no reason to cut it like that.”
-All right. I’ll make a schedule.
After giving Eve instructions, he responded to Jin Xiawei’s words.
“We will soon be moving to a proper facility. There will be people to help us.”
Bringing in outsiders for security would take time, but now it was necessary to get things in place.
Since it was EV money, he couldn’t reveal that he was the owner right now, but it didn’t matter since it was just a potion manufacturing company.
“Okay. Then I’ll make it before the wounds are fully healed, so don’t get treated by a healing awakener.”
With some strange restrictions, she was fired up with potion making.
A few days later, Kyung-hoon met Yoon Hye-rin for the first time in a long time. We kept in touch by phone, but both he and she were very busy.
She had recently registered as an awakened person and had a very bright face.
He had let go of the fear of becoming an experiment and seemed to have forgotten about killing people.
“In the end, I succeeded. It’s all thanks to Kyung-hoon.”
However, the expression on Kyung-hoon’s face did not change. I was a little embarrassed because I was staring at Kyung-hoon.
The place where the two people were talking was the cafe in Gangnam where they had met before.
Hye-rin was worried that Kyung-hoon was hurt, but when Kyung-hoon said he was okay, she immediately started bragging about what she had accomplished.
The people in the cafe were excited when they saw her. Her beauty was becoming more radiant, but it wasn’t her beauty that made people stare at her.
“I think it will be difficult to go around with my face visible now.”
Kyung-hoon said while looking at the TV attached to the wall of the cafe.
The TV screen was filled with her face.
[Today, Dr. Hye-rin Yoon of Seokyeong University succeeded in extracting energy from the nucleus found in the body of a mutant for the first time in the world. It is said that it has currently been converted to 500KW level electrical energy and has continued to generate power for more than a week. A great event that could solve the world’s energy problems all at once…]
It wasn’t just Korean broadcasting stations. Main articles on the Internet and special reports around the world were filled with her articles.
The economic shock caused by the wave was reversed in one fell swoop.
-I think I will gain more than 5 times the profit from this project. Unfortunately, I didn’t get as much benefit as before.
Still, I was able to make a lot of profit again because I didn’t know the presentation in advance… or rather, I was able to set the presentation time.
Moreover, stocks that were falling were dangerous for Kyung-hoon and EV. There was a need to support the stock price before it was too late.
“All kinds of people were trying to get involved in this matter. If the Awakened Association and Baeksan Group hadn’t stopped it, it might have ended up being a joint announcement.”
[What’s even more surprising is that the doctor disclosed this technology without patenting it. The scientific community was shocked by this incident, and opinions are gathering to recommend her as a candidate for the Nobel Prize. Moreover….]
“I feel sorry for the Awakened Association because I didn’t file a patent. I succeeded anyway with Kyung-hoon’s help, so it’s not my place to say anything, but I hope Kyung-hoon knows that too.” Kyung-hoon nodded at Hye-rin’s words
. nodded. In any case, this announcement was only the starting point for future plans.
“Now, the next step is to set up a research institute. I will provide all the investment funds. Even the mutant monster research institute and production company will be created under your name.” “I am the face madam and Mr. Kyung-hoon is the actual
owner?”
Kyung-hoon nodded at Hye-rin’s words.
“Yes. I will give you as much data as possible for research. Let’s build the best company.”
Hyerin smiled at Kyung-hoon’s words. She had no intention of objecting.
