516. Eighth Return to Earth (1)

Return to Earth. Taesan’s eyes lit up.

There have been a total of seven returns so far, and all of humanity has been able to gather in one place by clearing all quests.

Then, there was only one thing to do on the next return.

earth clearance.

and the elimination of an open hole in the sky

.

“It’s faster than I thought.”

The wizard agreed with Taesan’s words.

“I also thought you wouldn’t exist until you reached the latter half of the 90th floor. But lately, a strange atmosphere has been going around.”

“A strange atmosphere?”

“A rift across your planet”

A huge hole in the sky.

“It’s growing little by little.”

Taishan’s eyes sank.

“Earth is neither our side nor that side. neutral ground. I’m looking at it that closely… up and down.”

The wizard had an ambiguous face, as if he didn’t know properly.

“Something is out of whack. It seems that it is not simply the intervention of the deceased, but I am not sure.”

“You guys don’t know either?”

“We also have a lot of work to do lately, so it’s impossible to know exactly. The damn thing has crawled so much I can’t afford it. So,

it would be better to organize the things that can be organized in advance.”

The wizard looked at Mount Tai.

“To return to Earth and close the cracks in the sky. That is the purpose of this quest.”

close the cracks in the sky

It was, in fact, the finishing touch. Taesan nodded.

“good. How am I supposed to close it’?”

Even in my previous life, there was a time when I closed the rift in the sky. At that time, they believed that they had won, but that

was a trick of the gods.

When Taesan moved to the twisted timeline with a piece of Ouroboros, he tried to attack the crack in the sky with all his might.

At that moment, a crack opened.

Something jumped out of there, grabbed the border and crushed it.

Probably a gatekeeper guarding the rift. The one who trampled the boundary line was probably an opponent of the high god level. It was questionable whether such an existence could close the rift guarded by it.

“You don’t have to worry about that part

. Because this time it’s not just you guys.”

“Are we not alone?”

“There will be people going to help you.”

The wizard said quietly.

“They will help close the rift in the sky.”

“A transcendentalist?”

“no. Transcendentalists can’t intervene in the first place. you know?”

Earth is a neutral zone. The fact that the Transcendentalist intervened

meant that Gosin could also intervene.

“So there will be a delivery book. I’m going to give them a useful card, so you can use it well.”

The wizard said without any change in emotion.

“No matter what you do with the delivery books, it’s up to you. Do what’s convenient for you. We won’t mind.”

words that mean something. Taesan affirmed.

“Don’t let that happen.”

“Well then, I’ll be watching from afar.”

“Are you leaving already?”

“Did you tell me? I’m busy. I have a lot of really dirty work to do.”

The wizard grumbled and opened the space. I gazed at Mount Tai while half buried in the space beyond.

“I don’t know what the outcome will be… but I’m looking forward to it. As always.”

“okay.”

The wizard left. Two days left. It was a time when I could afford it, and if I didn’t, I didn’t. Taishan opened a community.

The community was naturally noisy. People from all over the world were gathering and talking to each other.

However, there was little concern in their conversation.

Hope you can win.

And faith in Taesan.

they were seen the most.

After watching them for a while, Taesan opened a separate chat window.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: How is it going

?]

[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: Ah. Are you here?]

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: Taesan! You’re here!]

[Geum Joong-geun [Hard]: Brother. Are you here?]

A chat window where key players from each country gathered. Taesan wrote again.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: What is the total number of people now?]

[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: I’ll have to check the details, but… About 160,000. I think it’s about enough.]

[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: A lot.]

[Daniel Darmont [Hard]: Should I say it’s a lot…?]

[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: I expected less than 100 million. That’s enough.]

It was as Oliver said. If it was 150,000, it was enough to survive.

After that, we talked a little more. Hard Mode 25 million Normal Mode 65 million Easy Mode 80 million left.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: What floor did you reach?]

[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: There are differences from country to country, but the hard mode is from the early 80th floor to the late 70th floor. Normal is 90 floors. And in Easy Mode, clearing is right in front of you.]

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: No one has cleared it?]

[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: None. It’s a situation where no one wants to go out anyway. Now.]

Not going out was the correct answer. Even if Easy Mode went out to Earth now, all it could do was run away and die while running away. The correct answer was to stay in the labyrinth and wait for the other players to go out.

In the previous life, many people went out to the labyrinth alone without knowing that fact, and

met a death that no one will remember.

Taesan had no intention of seeing that figure again.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Don’t let me go out until I give permission.]

[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: Yes.]

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Then how far did the Alone mode players, including Lee Tae-yeon and Amelia Jun-hyeok, arrive? ?]

[Kang Jun-Hyuk [Alone]: I’m on the 69th floor.]

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: 76th floor.]

Many other Alone Mode players also mentioned the floor they reached. Overall, I had reached the 60th floor.

‘It’s faster than I thought.’

Black magic and magic bestowed by Taesan. It seemed that spirits and the like were certainly helpful. It wasn’t bad.

And when it was Lee Tae-yeon’s turn, everyone burst into astonishment.

[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: 83rd floor.]

[Kang Jun-hyeok [Alone]: Wow.]

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: …that’s terribly fast.]

83rd floor. It was also in the middle of the depth.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: Is it worth it?]

[Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: So-so. It’s very tough… but not to the point where I can’t stand it]

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: That’s enough. Don’t overdo it.] [Lee Tae-yeon [Alone]: Do I

look like someone who does

that ?]

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: That’s right.]

Tae-san smiled. Lee Tae-yeon has definitely changed, but the fundamentals have remained the same.

Amelia interrupted, as if not liking their conversation.

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: Taesan. you? What floor did you arrive on?]

[Oliver Kahn [Hard]: I’m curious about that too. Is it in the late 80th floor?]

[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: I think Taesan would have entered the 90th floor.]

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: The 90th floor? No matter how much Taesan is, that’s…]

[Kang Taesan [Alone]: 94th floor.]

There was silence for a moment. The community that had been noisy until now became quiet in an instant.

Taesan calmly moved his hand.

[Kang Tae-san [Alone]: I’ll be back in two days. Everyone get ready.]

* * *

The community was in an uproar. How will each of us position ourselves for this return and how will we respond? And what is the purpose of this return? Discuss and share each one of them.

Taesan turned off the community and opened the skill window.

[Special Activated Skill: Forced Reach]

[Mana Consumption: 5

[Proficiency Level: 1%]

[You can forcefully reach the target you desire. However, what you can aim for is limited, and you bear all the penalties and risks necessary to achieve your goal.] I know

what kind of skill multiplication is and how to deal with it.

However, forced reach is the first skill that Taesan also acquired. Before being summoned to Earth,

it was necessary to make a rough confirmation.

“Hmm.”

[You activated Forced Reach.]

Taesan set a goal in his head and activated the skill.

Smell.

borderline appears.

A stream of gray hides the figure of Mount Tai. And it doesn’t stop there. Gray continues to flow out and slowly begins to encroach on the space.

The boundary line fills the 94th floor.

And it goes beyond that.

Cross the floor and start climbing the stairs to another floor.

[Uh.]

For a moment, Bardray felt a sense of difference. The boundaries that Taesan was dealing with now were clearly different from usual.

Until now, it was alien and dangerous, but if it still felt like I was in control, it wasn’t now. The boundary line was spreading beyond Taesan’s hand.

“Is this how it feels?”

Taesan captured the boundary line. This experiment

gave us a rough idea of how to deal with

forced reach .

“It’s fine.”

If handled well, it can change the very outcome of winning or losing. What to do for the remaining two days has been decided. Thinking about and calculating the use of forced reach. Tae San’s head rotated at high speed.

Time passed in an instant.

And after two days, they began to return to Earth.

[Amelia Aerin [Alone]: Alright. Let’s go!]

[Kim Hwi-yeon [Hard]: Let’s all survive.]

Posts in the community go up at a fast pace. Among them, there was one name familiar to Taishan’s eyes.

[Lee Deok-soo [Izzy]: Ugh. It’s always scary.]

‘It’s alive.’

Taesan smiled. The space opened and Taesan’s body

began to escape from the labyrinth.

Step out.

I could hear the people’s exclamations and the breathing of determination. Many people’s eyes were focused on Taesan.

they are back to their hometown.

* * *

[Start a special quest]

[This quest is for all mankind.]

[Gather the survivors, create discipline, and establish order.] [This quest has no time limit.]

The quest has no time limit.

appear. The goal of the quest is to gather people first. The leaders of each country shouted.

“ruler! Gather everyone!”

“American players,

come here!”

People calmly followed their words. It was the eighth time, and people’s movements were very familiar.

Taesan watched it from a little distance.

fault.

“Taesan. long time no see.”

“Long time no see.”

Diana and Beldencia approached Taesan. When Diana saw Amelia and Lee Tae-yeon, she exclaimed.

“You’ve gotten stronger. conspicuously too. At that level, if we work together, I can’t be sure of victory.”

“Because everyone is working hard.”

Everyone was risking their lives to descend the labyrinth. They will grow slowly but surely.

After some time passed, everyone was in perfect order.

“It’s done.”

“It’s fast.”

It was over a billion people. No matter how

superhuman it is, it could take more than a day to organize it, but it took only a few hours. Kim Hwi-yeon said with a proud face.

“Everyone is used to it. Above all else, Taesan-nim is here.”

All players on Earth worship Mount Tai. As long as there is an absolute God, words cannot come out. Kim Hwi-yeon clenched her fists.

“It will be dangerous this time too, but if people join forces like this, we will be able to overcome it.”

As soon as he said that, a system

window appeared.

[Special quest completed.]

[Special quest started.]

[Guardians appear. Talk with them, coordinate your opinions, and join forces.]

“Huh?”

“tutelar?”

People are perplexed. They appear before their confusion subsides.

Kiyiying!

Divine light falls from the sky.

People blindfolded by blinding flashes.

“That’s…

“Aisle.”

Taesan murmured.

That golden pillar was a kind of passage.

Kiyeeing….

The light slowly fades and hundreds of these people come through the passageway.

they were warriors. And he was a wizard. From the armor they were wearing

, they could see what kind of melee they had overcome and what kind of enemies they had dealt with.

‘Strong.’

All of the hundreds of people were at a considerable level. The one who seemed to be the representative of the dog was conspicuously powerful among them.

“Ugh.”

“What is it?”

People are perplexed by the appearance of heterogeneous beings. Diana was also embarrassed, but her embarrassment was different from other people’s.

“Guardian…

Diana’s face was repulsive.

Hundreds of beings who appeared on Earth slowly approached Mount Tai. And the person who seemed to be the representative bowed down.

“nice to see you. great man We are the Guardians.”

Chunk!

Those standing behind them take their poses at once. A near-perfect posture with no gaps.

It was not a sum that could be achieved in just a year or two. The man

said silently.

“My name is Akrasian. Following the will of great people, I am here to help you.”
