Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 804
#804. I must hurry.
* * *
Leviathan.
It has branches all over the world.
A fortress that was used as a base for activities of the Seven Dragons Society in the Age of Heroes in the past, with each one of them surrounded by extremes.
But Leviathan’s most important thing was not defense.
It was an information network centered on each branch.
any legal means.
any illegal means.
Based on the psionics of mental communication, their information power, which has accumulated know-how for hundreds of years, was phenomenal.
It could be said that the fact that the Black Dragon clan, which competed with the White Dragon clan for the weakest, became the most dangerous clan in the Seven Dragons, thanks to their intelligence.
“I’m sorry, princess.”
So it was.
Director of the Leviathan Korean Peninsula branch.
That was the reason Youin lowered his head.
“Raise your head, Youin. You have no reason to apologize.”
“Haona, but it is an inexcusable fact that my information collection was insufficient.”
“That’s why it’s okay. It’s my fault that you can’t concentrate on gathering information.”
Li Qingyu chuckled.
While living in this Leviathan branch.
Youin, in effect, has been assisting Li Qingyu like an aide.
The problem was that he was overloaded with too much work.
The princess’s aides are the most outstanding among the clan.
Even Sister Arbella Barbara of the Green Dragon Clan, considered half a parachute, boasted exceptional talent among her peers.
No matter how much Kang-ho Noh and even Yo Woo-in, a master at the rank of servant, there was an aspect that was too much for him to replace as an aide.
Even more so while simultaneously carrying out his duties as the manager of Leviathan.
“Even so, it is my fault that I did not obtain information from the government of this country.”
Even so, Youin couldn’t raise his head.
It’s just that the president of this country asked for a deal to meet with Limon in exchange for information.
That in itself was a mistake that as Leviathan’s branch manager would have no excuses even if he was immediately dismissed.
“This country is still called the leader of the world. We cannot underestimate it.”
However, Li Qingyu did not blame Youin.
Of course, this Korean Peninsula, which has been protected by Limon for a long time, is the least influenced by the Seven Dragons.
It has made a name for itself as a player powerhouse.
If you were a high-level player in the government, you could have known at least one or two pieces of information that even the Black Dragon clan didn’t know.
Even PAB, where Limon and Yuna-kyung were once, belonged to the government.
“…I don’t know how long that potential will last.”
She had a strange smile.
Each high-level player is a one-man corporation boasting enormous ransom.
It would be difficult to maintain the player’s wages in this country now, where all sorts of economic turmoil has taken place.
There is only one way left.
It is only to appeal to their patriotism and hire them for honor and pride instead of money.
But will they agree to it?
Not even other people, but even the swordsman who has defended the country for hundreds of years, believes in the promise of those who have been slandered?
can it be
In the future, high-level players belonging to the government will leave for better jobs.
What if the economy collapses there?
Health is extremely bad.
Even those with even a little ability will immigrate to foreign countries, and as a result, a vicious cycle will occur in which the country further declines.
At the longest, in 10 years, it would be an underdeveloped country where it would be difficult to make a living.
‘As expected, this happened again.’
knowing that fact.
Li Qingyu muttered inwardly.
This was planned from the beginning.
Even if there was no competition between the Seven Dragons and the World Federation, or on the contrary, the World Federation had the upper hand.
Because this country was destined to meet someday.
In the end, they crossed the river of no return from the time they dumped Limon.
Only they, who had received all kinds of benefits from the shadow of the swordsman, did not realize it.
really stupid
I have eyes, but I cannot see.
You don’t even know the value of what you lost.
Even so, when Li Qingyu puts on a slightly complicated expression as he recalls the fate of this country, which cannot be laughed at like other people’s business.
Phaging.
space splits
A white-haired man appeared.
“Welcome, Swordsman.”
“I’ve been.”
side.
Like a bride who greets her husband after returning from work.
Limon naturally hugged Li Qingyu, who smiled and greeted him, and kissed him softly on the cheek.
He was delighted with the touch he had become accustomed to, but felt a little regret that it was not his lips.
Li Qingyu asked calmly.
“Did you finish the story well?”
“At least during this president’s term, I don’t think there will be any more looking for me.”
“I’m a little surprised.”
I thought Shin Myung-woon, who had been calling several times a day to meet the seven princesses or Limon, would be more persistent.
Unexpectedly, I gave up willingly.
Looking at the tilting Li Qingyu.
Limon said calmly.
“Unlike his predecessor, he was still a guy with whom he could communicate.”
“I’ve heard reports that he’s competent, but if the swordsman said that, it must have been an underestimation.”
“Isn’t this country in a situation where the president will change what he does?
if last year.
When Li Qingyu and him met.
If the president at the time was Shin Myung-woon.
No matter how much it was to make a kite with the infinite lord, he might not have tossed Limon.
At least, if Han Jeong-guk was impeached immediately after the incident and Shin Myung-wun had tried to restore the relationship with Limon as soon as he became the new president.
The relationship might not have been severed so drastically.
But it is assumed.
things have already happened
The past cannot be undone.
Although Limon sympathized with Shin Myung-wun, he had no intention of helping him.
More than anything else, they had other things to worry about right now.
“Did you check the information?”
“Yeah, I’ve got it sorted out beforehand.”
When Li Mon handed over the thin paperwork he was holding, Li Qingyu skimmed through it.
And among them, I saw a picture of a certain person, even if it was blurry, and my eyes were drawn.
“Looks like it wasn’t fake information.”
“I wouldn’t have done such a crazy thing unless I wanted to lose.”
“If you think about it common sense, but no one knows what a human being cornered will do.”
“That’s right.”
Limon laughed.
If it was Hanjeongguk, I would have shoveled it again and blew up the Blue House and ate the leftovers.
In that sense, it was fortunate for this country that Han Jeong-guk was impeached, albeit belatedly.
Of course, Han Jeong-guk, who was imprisoned, was cursing every day that the country would not have collapsed if Limon hadn’t been there.
Limondo Lichingwido.
I wasn’t interested in such a bastard.
Instead, he focused on checking the documents handed over from Shin Myung-woon.
“The oldest is… about 80 years ago.”
“Only certain things are that much, and if you include uncertain things, it’s over 200 years.”
“Do you still see them as the same person?”
“Princess, don’t you think so too?”
“There are too many coincidences to be a coincidence.”
After answering calmly.
Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.
“There are so many clues, but it’s embarrassing that my clan hasn’t found anything after over a year of investigation.”
“It can’t be helped. This is a matter of data, not information.”
“Finding that data is also informational power.”
Gathering a lot of information means that unnecessary garbage accumulates.
And the Black Dragon clan, which has accumulated know-how for a long time, is accustomed to blocking or discarding garbage information in advance, as it only collects necessary information.
in that sense.
This was information that could be obtained because it was a country.
Because it is impossible for a company to keep such meaningless data for hundreds of years.
Of course, it was Shin Myung-woon’s ability to realize that the Black Dragon clan had been searching for this person since last year and collect the data.
‘It would be good to expand intelligence about each country’s intelligence agencies.’
He said that he had been so focused on stopping the World Federation that he had neglected other information.
reflecting on my heart
She kept checking the papers.
“But it’s surprising. If this record is true… it would mean that he perfectly fooled me as well as the swordsmith.”
“It’s definitely a great thing.”
Limon shook his head.
The sword master’s senses are superhuman.
In addition, Limon’s intuition with dragon psionics is exceptional.
It was really surprising considering that it was not an easy task even for the same sword master to deceive his eyes.
“So it’s rather easy to guess his identity.”
“…Do you think it’s that way too?”
“Because there are few people who can fool my eyes.”
“Well, at least they can be said to be better than us or the White Dragon Clan when it comes to hiding and running.”
There is a reason they haven’t been able to find so far.
After silently agreeing.
Li Qingyu chuckled.
“But I don’t intend to follow you by the tail forever.”
Was it because he thought that as a member of the Black Dragon clan, which boasts the best information power of the Seven Dragons, he could not show more ugliness than this?
Contrary to his smiling face, he looked back with deep sunken eyes.
Li Qingyu asked calmly.
“Youin, can I ask you to track me down?”
“I will never disappoint you.”
I don’t know if there are no clues.
As long as we have the data Limon received from the government, we will find it somehow.
As Leviathan’s manager, Youin, who spoke with honor, immediately mobilized all available information networks to track down the person in the document.
The Black Dragon Clan, of course.
Employees hired for money.
Even insiders from other institutions.
Youin’s pursuit was thorough, using everything he could use.
Even a hermit who had been living in the mountains for more than a few years could hardly avoid the information network.
This was possible because he had been running Leviathan on the Korean Peninsula protected by the swordsmith and steadily expanding and managing the information network.
And at the end of that intensive investigation.
he finally found
from last year to now.
The traces of the person who had been diligently following Li Qingyu’s instructions.
But…
“There’s a problem.”
“What’s wrong?”
The Seven Dragons Association must be over.
Is Charlotte too busy sorting out her overdue work?
In the meantime, Limon, who was spending time leisurely in Leviathan while concentrating on recovery, made a puzzled expression.
Li Qingyu, who was sitting on his back on the bed and rubbing his firm back with his soft palms, raised his head slightly.
Youin said with a heavy face.
“It seems that there are others besides us who are after ‘him’.”
“who?”
“We’re still figuring it out, but seeing as one of the armed forces involved in the pursuit went missing without contact, it doesn’t seem like they’re normal.”
“Hmm… Princess?
” “According to what I told you before, the World Federation must have moved.”
“They’re fast, too.”
“They’re already cornered. He thinks this is his last chance.”
After hearing what Li Qingyu said,
Limon nodded calmly.
It seems to have been true.”
“It’s still too early to be sure, but the possibility is high.” ”
The problem is that there is even a slight possibility.”
While Midas is in disarray in the aftermath of the collapse, the world federation’s monarch secretly moves the most. A probable reason.
At the same time, remembering the purpose that Limon himself and Li Qingyu had been looking for that person until now,
he got up from the bed.
” I have to hurry
.”
Putting on his clothes,
Li Qingyu calmly continued,
“In the worst case, if the World Federation finds him first, the clue to the last Seven Arcs will be stolen.”
