Return of the Archmage

Chapter 12

Crack hair.

It literally means to break the cracks.

There’s nothing wrong at first glance.

Cracks are widespread in the world, and there’s not enough users to handle them.

In addition, cracks begin to change when they exceed a certain amount.

Evolve to a higher level or burst in addition to nearby cracks.

Monsters trapped in cracks come out into the world.

Therefore, the number of cracks within a certain range is controlled unconditionally.

That’s why I think it’s something to be thankful for.

Nevertheless, the state identifies and sanctions crack hair as a serious problem.

It is not just a special law for South Korea.

It’s the same everywhere in the world.

It is the same except for countries that are not part of the international community.

All cracks in the territory are owned by the state, and even if they belong to the nation, they cannot be targeted without the user code allowed by the state.

Or, after applying for a target, most of the income earned from the crack should be paid to the state.

The word harsh cannot come from users.

Except for that, international law also states that it doesn’t matter which country you work in, regardless of nationality.

African-American users can also target cracks in Korea without discrimination from Korean users after registering as Korean users.

Thus, crack shedding is considered and treated as a more serious problem by the disaster management department, i.e. by the user management headquarters.

In a world that welcomes foreign users without restrictions, without discrimination, and accepts foreign users, there is only one meaning to break the cracks without registering users.

“There is a high probability that the user has been kicked out of the country. Don’t let your guard down from the moment everyone gets into a rift.”

“Yes.”

In particular, it is often used to target non-registered users and take away other users’ code to avoid taxes paid to the country.

That means they don’t want to pay taxes, but they don’t want to be identified.

Why don’t I like it?

There’s a good chance of being chased.

It is highly likely that users have committed serious crimes that should not have been committed in the country.

Such a person enters the country and breaks the cracks to raise funds.

What do they do when they have money and a safe haven.

You can’t bathe yourself for a fresh start with a new mindset.

“There should never be user-related crimes in Korea.”

The massacre caused by hunters is a bigger disaster than the one in which monsters pour out due to cracks.

Monsters run wild regardless of Pia, but users penetrate human psychology and commit murder they want.

Users need several times as much effort to hide.

The longer that time, the more civilian damage will rise to square.

That is why we must prevent it.

The system is well-equipped.

To find something strange and prepare for a disaster.

That is what the disaster response department should do.

Especially in this situation where such things are increasing, we should pay more attention.

“Entering.”

Lee Hyunhwa. Level 54 Dealer.

She and an average of 50 terrorists entered the crack 10 minutes ago.

6.

It’s a dark forest.

One of the most difficult terrain and backgrounds for users to hunt.

In a thick forest where even the moonlight cannot penetrate, humans are only appetizing prey exposed to monsters.

But Lee Hyun-hwa was not nervous.

Her level is 54.

As an agent performing a national mission, the equipment is just as good as the rankers.

It means that level 2 crack monsters can’t do anything about it.

In addition, he is the ace of disaster countermeasures for no reason.

She is good enough to come in alone if it was to target the crack.

‘Large up.’

However, as soon as he entered the crack, he lowered his posture and even stopped breathing.

Although there are 64 level dealers and 6 users in the 50s.

Because what they’re dealing with isn’t just 20 level monsters.

Unknown enemy minimum estimation level 50. Unidentified personnel.

I don’t know how many.

It is safer to go around a level 1 crack, but choosing a level 2 means that it is that large.

It’s not to mention the power of two to three level cracks a day.

So nervously, he moves forward with a signal.

Users of the terror team who took out weapons do not make a sound and expand the siege network.

If you find even a small trace, you maintain the tension to continue the battle.

Traces were soon discovered.

A monkey lying on the floor with its throat cut off.

‘Red Monkey, he died with a sweet knife.’

He is a neat expert.

Also

Doubts turn into conviction.

Among the three users who reported their position, there is no level of user to show this level of ignorance.

Red Monkey’s leather must be at least level 40 to cut so smoothly as tofu.

Evidence followed suit.

The scattered Red Monkey’s body wasn’t the only one she found.

‘……!’

Six Red Monkey bodies killed by the same method.

Lee Hyun-hwa’s expression, which she was observing, hardened.

I thought of it at the same time.

Can I kill six Red Monkey alone in one place with a knife?

Even if she’s over 50 levels.

He shook his head.

I can do it if I’m told to. It’s just this neat and difficult.

50+ level users who are good at swordsmanship.

At least equivalent to her.

For now, it is clear that the user who is in the second-level crack is not a reported user.

Lee Hyun-hwa, who made rapid progress with confidence, soon discovered it.

a vast open space

The only moonlit lake in a dark forest.

Three users who face a giant bear that is well over 4 meters tall.

And I looked.

With two users backing down.

Pot-

A user who’s going fast.

Whoo-hoo!

With a sword with light flame properties, it penetrates into the bear’s arms without hesitation.

At the same time, Lee Hyun-hwa gave a signal.

They are not saints.

When the enemy is off guard, that’s the chance.

A team dedicated to terrorism, which does not even make a sound of footsteps, will surround Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung, who have fallen behind.

“Huh?”

“Who are you?”

The two who overpowered it more simply than I thought.

Before I think something is wrong, I approach the bear and Lee Hye-sung.

Lake bear.

A semi-boss-class monster that’s hard to see at level 29 crack.

It is not a threat to Lee Hyun-hwa, who is over 50 levels.

When the enemy is at least distracted, he overcomes it.

Three terrorists, including her, rushed in.

But they had no choice but to stop running.

Lee Hye-sung’s sword was buried in the neck of the lake bear.

Bang!

There was an explosion from the sword.

The lake black ended his life without being big.

“Hyesung!”

Han Seo-young shouted behind the falling lake bear and Lee Hye-sung looked away.

“Huh? Who?”

An awkward look got entangled.

At the same time, Lee Hyun-hwa lowered her weapon and pulled out her badge from her arms.

“I’m Lee Hyun-hwa, disaster management department at the user management headquarters. I look forward to your cooperation.”

When the first team dedicated to terrorism opens its mouth, it completely overpowered the enemy.

However, Lee Hyun-hwa tried to talk without doing so.

Nevertheless, none of the users of the first team dedicated to terrorism could raise an objection.

Lee Hye-sung’s face in the moonlight.

It matched Lee Hye-sung’s face on the tablet.

Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung, who are already surrounded.

It wasn’t long before confidence cracked.

***

“…I’ve had a lot of excuse.”

The conversation went smoothly.

The user management headquarters has never fired at allies.

It is only terrorist groups that wield weapons at users who have no resistance and actively cooperate in identifying their identities.

“I never thought I’d meet a terrorist team in my life. It’s also a potential terrorist. Wow. I’m glad I followed you. Right, Seoyoung?”

“I can’t believe it when I see it in person, but people who don’t know Hyesung are suspicious when they just look at the data.”

Of course, I didn’t shoot, but I can’t deny pointing a gun at him.

Entrance without notification of the crack in the application is strictly treated under actual international law as attempted murder.

It is a national institution that cannot be avoided.

Doubt alone was too much to deal with.

“Level 8 and level 29 of the lake bears.…. What family are you from?”

Despite the fact, Lee Hyun-hwa straightforwardly asked questions.

The grand prize is Lee Hyesung.

Answer with a shrug.

“It’s none of your business, right? I’m pretty unpleasant right now. If you are a member of a national institution and you are a level 50 user, you are so weak that you can’t even check your signs. Less than a month after I came, I almost went to God’s arms before the damn lizard cub.”

The circle was made and as it is inside the crack, the weak mana was scattered to catch the monster’s scent.

Nevertheless, it failed to catch users approaching it.

It’s still this weak.

What if they fought the men who showed up?

I might have been able to run away with one of my bodies.

I’m not sure about one thing.

Lee Hye-sung, who has been caught by Dragon Road for 20 years and has felt lethargic, hates such feelings the most.

“I’m sorry. I think there was a misunderstanding because it was a result that could not be seen in the code grade. As soon as the appropriate compensation measures are taken…….”

“That’s enough. Make it up to me now.”

And to those who offended him, Lee didn’t have to speak up.

Inside a crack crowded with 50-level users.

Lee Hyun-hwa’s forehead wriggled as she looked confident even when she could not be guaranteed her life.

It was a reasonable doubt that could have been done to prevent a major accident.

She is also not a self-conscious person.

I don’t kill because I don’t like it, but I can overpower it.

“Tell me.”

But it didn’t.

Lee Hye-sung smiled and said, “We waited for Lee Hyun-hwa, who asked with our eyes met.”

“Level 3 Crack Entrance Authority. Upgrade me to level 3 code. I’m not asking you to make up for it, but the results of our party so far are enough, right?”

“…….”

“A team dedicated to terrorism, which has been in a rift with the intention of killing raw users, will know better. In order not to get this misunderstanding, you should have recognized the bud of users and given them the authority not to get it wrong.”

That’s true.

However, it is a demand that ignores the procedure.

It’s right to say no.

The problem is that Lee Hyun-hwa, the ace of disaster countermeasures, is a person who can’t even control the team leader.

“All right, I’ll listen to it on my authority.”

“……!”

The head of the first team dedicated to terrorism took a step forward.

Lee Hyun-hwa raised her hand to block it.

“However, prove it to me as much as I can overpower myself.”

At the same time, he raised his guard with the other hand up.

Members of the terror team shook their heads.

When Lee Hye-sung took the sword, he kicked his tongue.

Poor user must be a piece of cake.

asked Han Tae-sung.

“Is he strong?”

A member of the terror team nodded.

“How much…….”

The answer to Han’s question came from Lee Hyun-hwa’s mouth.

“Level 54. Boxer. If you scratch any of my armor, I’ll put it right up to level 3 and give you my armor.”

Mana came out of her body.

He’s got a lot of course!

Lee Hye-sung laughed.

“That sounds fun.”

A sword drawn to the floor follows a light step.

“Earth or fantasy or greetings are similar. You’re being so arrogant.”

Whoosh-

It is less than Lee Hyun-hwa, but subtle mana flows out to Lee Hye-sung.

Don’t just hover around a sword with a red hue.

“I’ll set the beat for you. One-circle linen test. Level 8 or 9 because I just got up. I don’t have anything, so I don’t have anything to bet on.”

Ten steps.

Five steps.

As soon as the distance is narrowed, it burrows into the ground.

a fast-switched airlift

When each other widened their distance again, the victory and defeat were obvious to anyone could tell.

“Cough.”

“Hyesung!”

“Scream!”

The 2 million won armor became rags with scrap metal pieces, and Lee Hye-sung, who was wearing it, knelt down with blood.

But I didn’t lose my smile.

Mumbled as he fell.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t want to wear that crap. Raise your authority. Cough.”

At the same time, Lee Hyun-hwa’s black, glossy armor fell into dozens of pieces.
