Episode 236
“Chloe, are you working overtime today?”
“I can’t help it. I haven’t figured out what it really is yet.”
“Ugh! I hate it! Absolutely disgusting! Do you know that the team leader is a completely evil boss? Look at the shade under Chloe’s eyes!”
When Hana pointed a finger at Chloe, Hyukjin shrugged.
One such was lying on a chair on the other side of the main control room.
Dozens of black cables are connected along the head and waist of the chair, so if it hadn’t been placed in the main situation room, it would have been the backbone of an armored magic weapon.
“If you look so pitiful, could you help me? I already helped once.”
“What would you say to someone who just came from work?”
“Look at the shadows under the eyes.”
“Jjomsaeng! devil! Evil!”
And Hyukjin watched Hana raise her upper body and scream while data was being transmitted from the cable connected to Hana’s suit.
In the first place, the briefing that Hana had to report was because she was extracting and analyzing the list of information and codes she collected in virtual reality.
“What about Chloe Information Analysis Team’s report?”
“Uploading now.”
“Is there any abnormal trend?”
“yes. Not yet.”
When Hyukjin asked, Chloe knocked on the keyboard and said.
As she said, the analyzed information began to emerge on the screen in the situation room one by one.
Currently, Oracle is observing in real time through Thousand Eyes instead of controlling the Akashic Records after the main stream is activated.
Moreover, now that the Akashic Records are out of Oracle’s control, the data collection by Hana and other GMs can be said to be a fairly important part.
The importance of information could not be overstated.
Although GMs had the inconvenience of having to run on their own, and the hassle of extracting data separately in the process of washing the manager code usage record.
Regardless of the method, I didn’t know that I could directly or indirectly get involved with AC in this way, but I could say that it was quite fortunate for the current Oracle.
This is because the world created by the Akashic Records has already reached a stage where nearly one-seventh of the world’s population is involved, and even if they try to stop the service and destroy the Akashic Records, they can’t do that easily.
“What about the results? Have you picked up anything?”
“Not much. It’s not very rare, though.”
Pooh!
Hyukjin turned his head and asked, and Hana blew his mouth.
Her face was full of boredom.
She looked like a female cat who was buried in a chair and didn’t even think about getting up.
And Hyukjin clicked his tongue at Hana, which melted like slime, while turning his head toward the front of the situation room to check the information.
“This is…”
“Isn’t it really a big deal?”
The information from the information analysis team was filling up the display board before I knew it.
“Access country code unknown. age unknown. name unknown. Even the level and character are all unknown. There was nothing I could check with the admin code. As if someone had deliberately blocked it…”
“…Is it the Akashic Records?”
“Perhaps?”
At Hyukjin’s words, Hana responded calmly, putting a pod behind her head.
If it wasn’t for that, there really wasn’t any goodness to infer.
admin code. Something that allows the GM in the game to exercise power that defies the laws of the Akashic Records.
Hana, dispatched by Hyukjin, investigated traces related to the Akashic Records from Goseong Agilante, and was able to achieve its intended purpose.
It was because all traces of a specific user among the users who had entered and entered Goseong Agilante had disappeared.
Moreover, it is self-evident that traces of such users will remain as those who entered and entered Goseong Agilante had already been broadcast live through the switch’s live streaming once.
The funny thing is that from the time Hana arrived, the records of the Akashic Record had already been erased, and the more she went down and down in pursuit of her disappearance, the more she had to go through extraordinary things.
Yes, like a child using a herd of sheep to keep their precious things from being taken away.
Or like a mischievous uncle holding a toy over his head and trying to keep it out of his reach.
The base of the old castle Agilante, which Hana had to break through, was to the point where the term “human demonic realm” was overshadowed.
“Unknown user. It must be a hidden class.”
“…bingo.”
Then, Hyukjin’s eyes became sharp as if sharpening a knife.
* * *
Unknown user.
A user whose information is all hidden in a veil and cannot be caught by Thousand Eyes, a program developed by Hyukjin.
Their importance could be said to be very high as the main program, the Akashic Record, was directly involved and their actions were reflected in the AC as logic.
In a word, it was irregular.
Because they changed the behavior of the Akashic Records according to their own actions, not according to a standardized system.
It was for that reason that Hyukjin referred to them as triggers.
“How are the specs?”
“Class specificity. body reaction rate. The character’s control and reflexes are insane. It is an unimaginable movement if the brain coordination rate is less than 90%. Maybe even more. And…”
“And?”
“The jawline is sharp. good ratio. The slim fit that is revealed over the white robe and the voice is cool. It’s just my style.”
“what?”
“It’s my style.”
“…What is he saying now.”
As Hana flushed, Hyukjin shook his head.
It was a start again.
I was going well, but suddenly a man is my style. How did the extreme serious love paranoia flare up again?
For example, this 25-year-old mother-of-a-kind solo vomited the spirit of running a dating simulation even to the subject to be investigated, unlike having excellent work handling skills and specifications.
In other words, he had a bizarre habit of picturing his old age in his head as long as he had a partner he wanted to be okay with.
‘That’s strange. With a sharp jawline… A slim fit that is revealed over the robe?’
As Hana continued to speak, Hyukjin tilted his head.
It was because there was a little gap with what he knew.
Clearly, it was speculated inside Oracle until Hana investigated the main actors who broadcast the live streaming of Goseong Agilante.
Moreover, the only man in a robe among them was a Finnish Englishman named Gematak, and was far from the man Hana described.
It was because there was no way that an alchemist dressed in a bachelor’s uniform embroidered with gold patterns on a red background would suddenly change into a white robe, and there was no way that his distinctive lagging voice would suddenly become a man of the road.
“Mr. Hana. Aren’t you mistaken?”
“yes?”
“I know that five people, including a user named Damian, have entered the old castle Agilante. None of them were wearing white robes.”
“Uh… is that so?”
When Hyukjin asked, Hana tilted her head.
It seemed that he was puzzled by his words.
However, considering that what he saw was not a lie, and that he measured it using the Thousand Eyes manager code, he could hardly call it an error.
So Hana recalled the moment of investigation in her head for a while, while nodding her head and talking to Hyukjin.
“There were two of you?”
“two people?”
“yes.”
Then, Hyukjin’s head also tilted to one side.
“There are two unknown users detected in the admin code. The first of these is the user Damian you mentioned. He is about 185 cm tall and has a big body like a bear. The skin is charred as if it has been tanned, and the exact features of the equipment are unknown due to the nature of the equipment, but it has clear features and a muscular body. But…”
“But?”
“After the Goseong Agilante was attacked, the whereabouts of a user named Damian became obscure for a while, and at the same time, an unidentified user appeared in the administrator code. It’s like stalking. That’s the user I was talking about. the second one.”
“…what?”
As Hana spoke with her index finger on her lips, Hyukjin’s face contorted again.
If it was unexpected, it was unexpected.
The reason Hyukjin sent one in the first place was to collect even a little bit of traces of Damian, who had disappeared after the Goseong Agilante’s attack.
However, it is not enough that the person who pursues Damian exists among the users, so that user also has the same characteristics as Damian?
Of course, it was impossible to determine exactly whether it was a user or an NPC because it was a person who could not be analyzed.
It was because it was something that had not been assumed in his hypothesis.
“Summarize. In the first place, the user Thousand Eyes tracked down was Damian, the user who attacked the old castle Agilante. Obviously, he is a famous streamer whose playing situation in the game is recorded live. Right?”
“yes.”
“By the way, such a famous streamer disappeared for a while after attacking the twisted dimension, and the record was not detected even with the admin code?”
“Yes.”
“And… while the unknown user named Damian became vague, another unknown user was caught following Damian with the same stance as us. What do you think this means?”
“That’s right…”
Hana blurted out at Hyukjin’s words.
It was because when I put together what I just said, one thing came to my mind.
It’s just that it’s never a good thing for Oracle, and even for her, ‘Could that be?’ I just didn’t say it because it was what I wanted to say.
“Due to the unknown user, the user I was with was also not searched… or…”
“Or?”
“The number of unknown users… is increasing…?”
“Yes, it is.”
Then, Hyukjin’s eyes shone sharply.
“Hana.”
“yes?”
“I’m sorry, but I need to go out again.”
“Yes eh eh eh eh?!”
When Hyukjin spoke in a serious tone, Hana screamed and opened her eyes wide.
It was the expression of a new employee who seemed to have been confirmed to work overtime 10 minutes before leaving work on time.
“That one! Do you know that even if you think about it, it is nonsense?”
“I can’t help it. The first assumption can be overlooked, but the second assumption cannot be overlooked. You know that?”
“It doesn’t even sound like that…!”
“I’ll give you a special vacation, so go out. Right Now.”
“…”
At Hyukjin’s words, Hana stood up with a crinkle between her brows.
It was a face that seemed to contain many things.
“Make sure to keep that promise.”
“okay. Chloe?”
“I am ready. you have control.”
Whoa!
At the same time, Hana was buried in the chair as it was connected to the cable.
