Return of the Archmage

Chapter 31

Crack brakes are a disaster.

However, the compensation time given to blocked users is comforting enough.

As a huge amount of monsters pour out, the crack core is also 1.5 times larger than normal cracks and the crack core spits out by monsters with more mana.

Of course, that many users cannot dream of becoming billionaires overnight by participating in battles.

However, the state certainly rewards users who risked their lives to protect their country.

It mediates all spoils from the crack brakes so that users can share them fairly, and provides additional compensation and encouragement.

In the process, the nation suffers huge losses in addition to casualties and property damage, but there has been no negligence in taking care of users.

It has not, and this time it has clearly shown its willingness to do so.

Otherwise, if something happens to upset the user to save a few bucks, it could happen to destroy the country with its own hands by pouring modern weapons into a crack brake that might explode at any moment.

No, I’m glad you stopped me like that.

If a crack this high level breaks, it really can’t be prevented without the help of a user.

The crack brakes were over, and the monsters outside were completely blocked, drawing people’s attention.

– How much will it be?

I heard there are many items that you can’t get from regular cracks in crack brakes.

I could tell that level 3 or 4 weapons and armor were not boring at all of them fell from the monsters outside.

If we get a stat potion…….

– How much is level 7 stat potion?

Why is that coming from a level 5 crack?

You said the boss was level 7.

Level seven, not level seven.

I can’t help it.

The people who see the top rift, the dungeon lay, are most curious about how skilled they are at catching the boss monster and what the rewards are.

In a way, it is natural to see it for vicarious satisfaction.

A monster I can’t catch.

An item that I can’t get.

I want to feel the joy of seeing it with my eyes.

Naturally, all eyes were on the microphone caught by Kang In-ho, the leader of the expedition that came out of the crack.

“Kang In-ho user! This crack brake boss monster raid was perfect, say something!”

“What is your relationship with Lee Hyesung users? I understand you gave me a armor set and a weapon, are you a disciple?”

“What’s the level of Lee’s user? What about the class? There’s a rumor that it’s rated ss!”

“Please reveal the items dropped on Boss Monster!”

Kang In-ho flatly rejected such gaze and attention.

In the sauce.

“I’m sorry, but that’s not the point right now.”

A voice full of mana instantly silenced hundreds of reporters who jumped into the fire for the scoop.

At the scene of countless death, the atmosphere filled with heat instantly became chilly.

What’s with that reaction?

Aren’t you overreacting, not a day or two?

A lot of people are dead.

That’s true, they don’t have to die today or tomorrow, and they’re cracking up to make money, pretending to be scholars. Some people feel sorry for the dead. It’s just a disaster, that’s why I do it.

A straight face that would embarrass even the viewers!

In the past, 30 years ago, people would have cursed journalists at times like this.

An estimated hundred civilians were killed, and the number of users who died several times as many times as they were, trying to protect them and their homes, is also similar.

In that situation, you ask what came out of the crack and what it was like to catch the boss monster?

It’s a situation where we have to doubt if we’re human.

But time passed and years passed.

People’s perception changed when there were hundreds of people dying in cracks a day and the damage from the cracks was becoming routine.

Let’s mourn for sadness.

Let’s just not pour all our emotions into it.

It doesn’t end up once or twice.

Let’s deal with the time to grieve.

If you can deal with it, you can prevent sad things.

So in the event of a disaster such as a crack brake, the first thing to do after closing the crack brake was feedback upon the recovery of the body.

It’s the same now.

Journalists’ questions are of course secular.

It has drawn out provocative questions and is intended to create a title.

But it’s a way to forget sadness.

Rather than reflecting on the death of many people, it is a process to bury them in their hearts and make a commitment to tomorrow.

In that situation, Kang In-ho’s reaction is naturally embarrassing.

The reporters thought in their heads.

It’s awesome.

The world’s No. 1 user made this remark.

Of course, you can look at it as emotional and you can’t pick on it.

However, he is the one who has always reacted tactfully.

So I thought like this.

Did an important acquaintance die?’

Why are you overreacting like that?

Journalists are novelists.

There are a lot of speculations rolling their eyes.

If left as it is, the contents of all newspapers and Internet articles are expected tomorrow, and they quickly caught a misunderstanding.

“That’s not what’s important right now, it’s feedback. We need to think about why, and why, we’ve never seen a single mutant crack brake before.”

“……!”

Explosive remarks.

Kang In-ho’s mana scattered through the air, but hundreds of reporters remained silent without saying a word.

I waited in silence.

“Do you mean artificial?”

Answers to the reporter’s words, who spoke out suspicions in the minds of hundreds of reporters who had courage.

Kang In-ho nodded.

***

Lee Hye-sung opened his eyes.

Single room. I can see Han Seoyoung next to the large hospital room.

“What are you doing here, not cracking?”

“Oh, are you up? Where are you going when our team leader is sleeping?”

“The excuse is.”

Definitely, it is not enough for Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung to crack.

No, the combination is not good, let alone the power.

Lee also asked another question because he was just asking.

“How long did you sleep?”

“A week?”

“You were almost dead.”

“I thought you were dead. But Kang Inho didn’t die, so I just waited. Doctors say that if you’re a singer, you’re in a state.”

No wonder you slept for a week.

No matter how good the doctor is.

However, Han Seo-young is calmly eating chicken while watching TV.

“You’ve been doing that for a week?”

“Yes, I have nothing to do. I’m just bored when I’m at the hotel. I took turns nursing Taesung.”

“Nursing must have been done by a nurse.”

“Anyway.”

It didn’t hurt my feelings.

Anyway, you were next to me.

I wouldn’t have cared much if I didn’t have it, but I can’t help but smile.

This is family.

A drop of blood is not mixed, but the bond is not bad.

Of course I’m not drunk on it.

“Tell me what happened in the week.”

There were things that were more important than holograms that still stood in the way of their presence.

Han Seo-young sat down while sucking her fingers while eating chicken.

“A lot has happened.”

Then I listed it.

“First of all, the crack brakes are well shut down. I’ve taken care of the monsters, explored the inside of the crack brakes, and packed everything. Unfortunately, the core didn’t fall off the boss monster.”

‘Cause I popped it.’

“In addition to the core, a lot of armor, weapons, and accessories have fallen, and we’re going to make a place soon due to compensation issues.”

“You still haven’t distributed it?”

“Yes, Kang In-ho postponed that you will reflect your opinion when you wake up.””

He nodded his head.

There’s no big problem with just distributing it, but that’s natural.

“And Kang In-ho made a bomb remark.”

“China?”

“Yes, I did. I suspect that this evolutionary crack brake is not a natural phenomenon, but an artificial one.”

“It’s not going to be easy with just the video.”

“So I just mentioned it to the point of doubt, but he’s such a good speaker that it makes headlines. I think it’s because I’m number one in the world.”

“What’s China saying? You’ll deny it.”

“Of course, I’m announcing my official position right away and denying it altogether, but it’s a defense device for Chinese kids that I can’t beat.”

It can’t be a perfect evidence.

Nothing happened to the level 3 crack because Lee Hye-sung organized the users.

However, it can be judged by presumptive evidence.

The explanation of why the users of China’s No. 1 guild were secretly entering the Republic of Korea and circulating cracks is beyond words.

“They say they’re expelled from the guild.”

“So what happened?”

Therefore, China’s official position is not important.

The important thing is coping.

“There’s no progress for now. China couldn’t have done it so easily. It’s such a powerful country.”

“I guess you just tried to stop me from playing games in Korea anymore.”

“I think so.”

I didn’t lean on it.

South Korea was wary of China 30 years ago.

There is a world No. 1 user. However, the structure of the forces cannot have changed easily.

But you can’t think of playing tricks in Korea anymore.

“The government will be criticized a lot.”

“Yeah, there’s a lot of demonstrations going on.”

That’s none of Lee’s business.

Although I haven’t lived for a long time, one thing I felt was that I experienced a lot of things on the planet in terms of fantasy.

If you make a grudge in any way, the day comes when it comes back.

Whether it’s the direct revenge of the loser or indirectly.

So if you’re going to make a grudge, you have to think.

Single

Will I be able to bear the same level of damage.

Lee Hye-sung was possible.

So he gave Dragon Lord a blow and ran away, broke down an unfortunate dictatorship empire, established his kingdom, and fought back against the Ma people who wanted to eat the continent.

Will China be possible?

“I wish you’d hang in there for a long time.”

In my experience, countries like China have a lot to pick out.

Holograms are drawn in, hoping nothing will happen until they go to eat.

Rewards earned from killing the Boss Monster.

[Level (2) has gone up]]

Acquire the [set point (2).]

The most basic but happy reward.

Whether the 25-level experience was almost over or the boss monster’s experience was that high, the level went up two levels at a time.

But it’s too early to be happy here.

There are still more holograms.
