#825. Emergency
* * *
“…So you’re not coming out today?”
“That’s right.”
“The fuck does that make sense!?”
bang!
The man hit the desk.
Maybe it’s because the high-level players didn’t put up with their strength.
The tempered glass of the desk was cracked and dust fell from the ceiling.
However, not only the others behind the desk, but even the staff behind the desk were not surprised or shaken by the sight.
It seems like you’ve already gotten used to it.
I just grudgingly accepted it.
“I will deduct the cost of repairing the desk from your salary.”
“Give me a paycheck and say that! It’s been several days since my salary has been overdue, do you think I’ll be scared for saying something like that?”
“Then, do you damage it as much as the salary that is to be paid? Instead, if there are casualties, additional sanctions will be imposed for damages, so be careful.”
“Hey…!”
Maybe it’s because he’s from Midas.
Even in the midst of this, I clenched my fists while watching the staff who accurately calculated the repair cost for the desk.
The man eventually gnashed his teeth and withdrew from the desk.
I want to show courtesy to that cheeky employee. It was like a chimney, but this is the headquarters of the World Federation.
It wasn’t a place where even a high-level player could be reckless.
…That was an old story, too.
“Ibosho District A ran out of supplies?”
“Supplies should come next week. So, take care of it until then.”
“Are you telling me to starve for a week!!”
“There are many restaurants outside. Do you go out and buy something?”
“You mean that now…!”
‘Either starve or die.’
An employee sitting at a desk.
Leto sighed inwardly.
He wasn’t originally such an insincere person.
Rather, he was a competent player in the Midas Guild enough to serve as a window at the headquarters of the World Federation.
The problem was a few months ago.
It started with the disappearance of the golden lord.
The absence of the golden lord during the already fierce economic war was a fatal blow to Midas.
During the aggressive investment, the Seven Dragons counterattacked, and most of Midas’ major affiliates either collapsed or were absorbed into the Seven Dragons.
Midas, who had served as the World Federation’s trustworthy sponsor until now, had disappeared overnight.
If that’s the only thing though.
I could have survived somehow.
Even if not as much as Midas, other guilds are also losers of the present age.
He could have made any amount of money if he focused on securing funds by running high-level players around the dungeon.
The problem was the control of the Seven Dragons.
‘What if I get a dungeon byproduct? I can’t even sell it, and even if I sell it and exchange it for money, I can’t use it.’
Seven Dragons Group.
From finance logistics energy culture industry medical catering.
To oppose them, who controlled the wealth of the world, meant that all those systems were unavailable.
You must use cash only.
Get turned down at a luxury hotel.
Fresh food is not available.
You cannot use an airplane or boat.
In addition to that, etc. Due to the checks of the Seven Dragons, even if the World Federation had money, it was in a situation where it could not be used properly.
Even the funds weren’t properly managed, so even Leto himself was behind in his salary.
The aftermath of the collapse of Midas, which kept the Seven Dragons in check, was that great.
‘I don’t want to work…’
That’s why.
Why is Leto helpless?
No, he wasn’t alone.
Most of the guild members remaining in the modern World Federation were nervous, annoyed, or anxious, creating a dull atmosphere.
It was natural.
Most of them are high level players.
They are the ones who can easily exceed billions of dollars in annual salary and enjoy a luxurious life wherever they go.
It was because complaints about having to struggle without being able to eat properly or rest were piling up.
Especially since I’m being pushed back by the Seven Dragons.
‘It’s only a matter of time before the World Federation goes down anyway.’
Manmamun Gate collapsed by Swordsman.
A soulless eaten by a demon.
Midas lost his business.
Even that is not enough. Rumors are circulating that it was the hero guild that carried out this terror and that everyone was wiped out.
The current situation of the World Federation is a turning point for anyone to see.
No, it was more like a sinking ship with a hole already in it.
No one believed that only the remaining guilds and Lord Sword Masters could stand against the Seven Dragons.
That’s why the world federation has been fierce these days.
I wonder if it was the direct guild members.
The players who were recruited when the World Federation was established were contemplating who would get out of here first.
If you leave too soon, you may be sanctioned as an example, so I’m still thinking about it.
the moment one leaves.
The great escape without looking back was about to begin.
Even now, there are hundreds of people who have applied for long-term leave due to illness or the death of their parents.
‘It’s fortunate that the guild, which is still good, replenishes the number of people, but…’
Indeed, the collapse in the fight against the Seven Dragons, and the World Federation disintegrating in the air due to lack of funds or the escape of players.
Which of the two comes first.
And will he be able to collect his severance pay?
While I was working hard calculating in my head and handling my business.
Leto narrowed his eyes.
‘Who turned on the heating? Why is it so hot all of a sudden?’
Even though the weather isn’t very cold, I even grumbled that it was a spectacle when I had to save on facility costs.
He immediately felt something strange.
The temperature keeps rising because the heating is on.
And the sight of others staring out the window with their mouths wide open or their eyes wide open made Leto suspicious.
But the moment I followed them and looked out the window.
Leto understood perfectly.
Why is everyone making faces as if they’ve seen a pig flying in the sky?
“Two suns…?”
Are you even dreaming?
I rubbed my eyes a few times.
At the end of looking at the two suns still floating in the sky with a bewildered face for a long time.
Leto barely realized.
That one of them is not the sun.
If it was the real sun, there was no way it would grow rapidly while he was watching.
But at the same time he understood.
That must be the sun.
The bigger the flames, the hotter the air and the radiance that warms the skin beyond dazzling were something only the sun could have.
How can you be the sun and not be the sun?
Even while Leto was confused by the contradiction, the second sun continued to grow in size.
And finally, the moment when the fever reached its peak.
『Seventy-two types of twelve dragons,
seventy-two kinds of dragons, seventy-two kinds of martial arts, nine-yangjiseong
nuclear fusion bombs,
and nine yangjiseong nuclear fusion bombs』
Quaaaaa!
“…!!!”
the sun.
started to fall
The closer you get, the hotter the heat that is incomparable to before.
The moment Leto widened his eyes when he saw the fall of the sun, which was enough to burn the entire Athens as well as the headquarters of the World Federation.
Quarreung!!!
A huge thunderbolt erupts.
pierced the falling sun
Of course, the sun, which had great power, tried to continue the fall, ignoring the thunderbolt.
But it wasn’t just one lightning bolt that blocked the sun.
Kwareung kwareung kwaguaguawang!
two four eight.
The thunderbolts that soared in succession all over Athens, including the headquarters of the World Federation, joined the first one and struck the sun together.
Is it because of that persistent resistance?
The sun gradually slowing its fall.
So the sun finally stopped.
The moment when 32 bolts of lightning rose from the ground and pierced the sun at the same time.
■■■■■―!
the sun explodes
A terrifying shock and roar erupted from the distant sky and swept all over Asia.
Wow Jangchang!
“Ahh!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
glass is broken
A heat storm rages.
The mayhem that shakes the building.
In the midst of this, Leto, who instinctively screamed while lying face down behind the desk, raised his head after a while.
Then, after looking around, he opened his mouth in a daze.
“Is it over…?”
It seems like a typhoon has swept through.
He broke out in a cold sweat as he looked at the landscape that was all messed up.
Even though it exploded from the distant sky, it ended up like this.
If the sun had fallen straight down, the entire city would have evaporated, let alone the headquarters of the World Federation.
‘Thank you, Creator and Golden Lord!’
So he shut up.
The Golden Lord, who invested a huge amount of money when the World Federation headquarters was established, and the Creative Lord, who created a barrier.
If it wasn’t for the defense system the two made, it wouldn’t have been possible to block that sun.
But he didn’t know.
Even if the defense system had not been activated, the sun would have exploded in midair on its own.
…That explosion is just the beginning.
But after a while.
he found out about it.
Doo doo doo doo!
“Hey!”
Clouds of dust rolling in from afar.
No, the cavalry that causes the clouds.
And among the silver-haired warriors, there is a silver-haired girl who is driving a horse at the forefront, wearing a gorgeous traditional attire and a crown.
Because I was making it impossible not to know the current situation.
“Kyahahaha! All at full speed! Eliminate anything that gets in your way and loot
it.”
“It’s okay, don’t get hit!”
“And the probability that the swordsman will be angry is 99% and the probability that the engagement will be broken is 43%.”
“Oh yeah? Well, minus the loot. Anyway, you can’t be a member of the Silver Dragon clan and suffer the shame of being left behind by other clans, right?”
“That is 100% correct.”
long ago.
sweeping meadows and snowfields.
A horse-riding people who occupied Russia.
Only in a short-term decisive battle, the descendants of Khan, who boasted the best in the Seven Dragons in all fields, such as mobile occupation and plunder, rushed waving the flag of Bahamut.
Athens is in chaos after the sun exploded.
To be precise, towards the headquarters of the World Federation standing tall at the center.
They weren’t the only ones.
Koo Goo Goo.
A transport ship carrying the flag of Jormungand is approaching the port, cutting through the waves of the calm Mediterranean Sea.
What appeared as the air distorted was the flying spirit of the messenger squadron bearing the mark of Fafnir.
Also, an armored car with the flag of Apophis running down the road, albeit later than the silver dragon clan.
to the sky, land and sea.
Thanks to the high location of the headquarters, Leto could see the various forces flocking from all sides, and his eyes widened.
Because I finally realized.
everyone was concerned
had even expected.
However, the situation that was not prepared at all had begun.
That’s why Leto shouted in a tearing voice.
“It’s an attack by the Seven Dragons!”
“Aww!”
“Get your gear gear!”
“Emergency emergency!”
Are you fortunate in misfortune?
Leto wasn’t the only one who realized the situation.
Players who had been lethargic until a while ago immediately packed their weapons in this emergency situation and moved according to the predetermined arrangement.
They are also known as the elite of the World Federation.
Because they were high-level players who had gone through all the battles in the dungeon.
“Wait?! Where did the equipment go!”
“Shit, if the team leader and assistant team leader go on vacation, what will this district be doing!”
…The problem was that even though each of them had excellent responses, the world federation was in a mess.
In a situation that was already hectic due to a sudden attack, all the problems accumulated so far exploded all at once, causing chaos.
In the midst of them wandering around.
The final battle between the World Federation and the Seven Dragons, which were competing for supremacy in the world, began like that.
