Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 848
Episode 27 of the side story
returned to Korea.
There is an emergency situation all over the world.
I’m not in a position to wander around either.
‘Anyway, I’ll be moving around regardless of the country after a while.’
Convening of the International Hunting Federation.
Simply put, it means summoning all hunting-related organizations around the world.
Somebody can’t come in.
A government-recognized organization or equivalent guild.
Only those with reputation, such as internationally recognized S-class or higher superhumans, can participate.
In other words.
“If the International Hunting Federation moves, all the monster hunters in the world will move.”
You don’t have to be a hunter.
It literally refers to the entire hunting group.
This includes those using the hunting robot that I saw at the last expo.
Even now, hunters from all over the world are gathering via video conference.
“These guys’ livers were so swollen that they came out.”
A week has passed since the launch of Ouroboros.
Terrorism took place for three days, and during the process, several countries that were only maintaining their form were overthrown.
4 days left?
“Still, I’m glad you came back alive and well.”
“If I had killed them, wouldn’t they have been scared too?”
While conducting terrorist attacks, they continued to exchange captured hostages and receive ransom.
There are dead hunters, but there are also quite a few captured.
You can’t let your own citizens held hostage die, even if they are dead.
Even more so if it is a hunter who symbolizes national power.
Even the proud United States agreed to their conditions at least this time.
of course.
“Hey Evileye. As soon as we find out their stronghold, we will start bombing them. “If you’re interested, come take a look.”
Retaliation is certain.
Ijikiil said he left a search party at the place where the hostage trade took place.
They plan to identify their base and bombard it with missiles at the same time.
America is America.
It tastes hot.
‘I don’t think I’ve ever experienced a missile bombing, even from the tower.’
Although the light has faded slightly as the world falls, Earth’s technological prowess and weapons are at a considerable level.
Now that humanity’s territory has shrunk, it would be possible to launch a nuclear bomb.
I don’t think they’ll use nuclear weapons this time, though.
That’s not important.
“Did you hear the news?”
“Uh oh. “Is it in an hour?”
Ouroboros, who has been doing all sorts of things for a week, has notified us.
After the hostage exchange, I have something to announce.
The reason why people from all over the world held video conferences.
‘In one hour.’
He said he would announce what he wanted through a live broadcast at 8 PM Korean time.
Our response may vary depending on what the content is.
Because the faster the response, the better.
That is why we share the information we have gathered so far.
“It’s basically a branch organization and there are branches all over the place.”
“Looking at it, it looks like a place where all kinds of forces are gathered, and there are about 5 people who can be called representatives.”
Is it because each country came forward?
We were able to find out how Ouroboros operates and who the people representing each faction are.
International criminal cultist International mercenary.
Here.
‘There was also a PP denomination.’
There were also pseudo-believers.
Somehow, they contacted me during the Pejjing unity rally.
Was he trying to trick me?
What’s even more surprising than that?
“Kowloon Guild. “I knew it was bad, but I didn’t know it would be to that extent.”
“Anyway, I won’t fall for something like this.”
It was also confirmed that one of the key members of Ouroboros is Guhwangmo, the head of the Guryong guild.
No matter how many times I open my mouth, something keeps coming out, you bastard.
If I had known this would happen, I would have killed you a long time ago.
“What happened to the location where you turned the base?”
After grinding my teeth for a moment, I asked the awl fairy a question.
Based on information obtained by interrogating those caught in Santorini, the Fairy Club launched a large-scale search.
“It was a step too late. “It’s already gone.”
The awl fairy who went to check the base shrugged her shoulders.
Along with that, I have attached a photo of the scene taken at a very small distance.
“In terms of size, it can accommodate approximately 40 people. “I think it was used by kids of a certain level.”
“It seems like those who are not good enough are spread out all over the place and then join in during the operation.”
“maybe. The command center is separate. Separate from those who move in the field. This makes it difficult to catch.”
The organization chart looks like this, but what’s more annoying is this.
“Looking at them, they don’t even use anything that can be tracked.”
As Nyangfun said, they don’t use anything that can be tracked down.
I don’t have a cell phone or use a walkie-talkie because there is a risk of eavesdropping.
For example, using an encrypted terminal that allows one-way communication.
Tracking through hacking or wiretapping has been completely blocked.
There are two things left.
It’s about tracking them by following them or using special abilities like psychometry.
It’s not for nothing that Ijikiil sent a search party to the hostage negotiation site.
I don’t know what the outcome will be, but I hope there is good news.
“It’s time.”
As we chatted about various things, it was already 8 o’clock.
After chatting, everyone looked at the screen.
-Chijijijijik.
noise.
Because it is broadcast through Ouroboros’ own channel, not an officially licensed channel, the picture quality is not clear.
After the screen adjustment period continued, what appeared was a black screen.
In the center, several photos taken from various angles were uploaded.
“Knock!”
Ijikiil cursed and pounded on the desk.
The people in that photo are the search party assigned by Ijikiil.
‘I got caught.’
Even though I must have paid some attention, I failed to chase them down.
A phrase appears on the black screen.
-Due to the conflict, the statement of position will be held later.
-Don’t go against our wishes anymore.
A sentence that is so arrogant as to be arrogant.
The channel that was broadcasting the broadcast was turned off for a while.
“damn. Still, I got a clue. The fact that the search party was attacked means there was something there. “If I find anything later, I’ll share it.”
Ijikiil roughly brushed his hair and ended the video conference.
So do others.
“Uhm. I guess I’ll have to wait a little longer. “I’ll do it again the next time I get in touch.”
“Hehehe. I can’t keep waiting. “They are a problem, but gates keep opening up.”
Chiri-ri Fairy and Hwamu-seon also turn off the screen.
Since we gathered in the first place to respond to those guys, we cannot continue the meeting as the schedule is pushed back.
“Whew. “Then let’s get together again next time.”
“Anyway, these guys I don’t like! “Take a look.”
Lick-jjak is also grinning as if he is exasperated.
Many people suffer because of these guys.
“But they’re right. There is so much to do. “We can’t just worry about this.”
Nyangfun’s tablet already has a bulletin board showing the status of gates that have occurred throughout the country.
A sudden outbreak of marine monsters has put Pohang on alert.
“oh. I’m going to go to Russia too. “I heard a strange guy came out of Siberia.”
Even if it is not Korea, we are asking for help from Asia.
Nyangpun goes to Pohang and Hair Man goes to Siberia.
“I have to go to the dungeon too.”
“Dungeon?”
“uh. “I heard that a historical site was discovered in Vietnam. I don’t know if it is a real historical site or a dungeon. Please confirm.”
Lick Jjakjak had a schedule in Vietnam.
Well, if it’s a dungeon, that’s possible.
Sometimes a dungeon appears where a gate bursts.
Should I say that it is a form of getting out of what was inside the gate?
“I have nothing to do.”
“Yes.”
Everyone is busy, but I’m the only one who’s excited.
It’s not because I played around.
‘The obelisk was made faster than expected, and almost all the mirror pieces were collected.’
On the contrary, I had time to finish the work quickly.
Just like Lilka, I also have the production skills to be called a craftsman.
Because two craftsmen were attached to the support from the national level, the production period was shorter than expected.
Even when Ouroboros went on a rampage, he went in and out of the monster field and gate in search of a candidate obelisk, and as a result, he collected up to 11 mirror fragments.
It’s said that if you collect just one more, it’s over.
-Kkiik.
An empty hideout.
I sat down on the sofa and thought about it.
Should I follow the kids and apply somewhere else?
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to stop by the Academy.
It’s also nice to spend time with Lilka.
‘No. Lilka must be busy.’
After finishing the obelisk work, I was concentrating on modifying the robot I bought at the last fair.
For example, if you want to make custom parts that robots or hunters can wear into a product.
Even when I went to play the day before yesterday, instead of playing, I came back after helping with work.
I was thinking that it would be okay to just spend time in a hideout because I don’t know when something might happen again.
-Cook, cluck.
[Heiden stabs you in the shoulder.]
“It paid off! “Keuuu!”
Haiden and Bekera, who disappeared for a while, have returned.
A guy who comes into the conference room pouring a large bottle of rum into his mouth, I don’t know where he got it from.
I could smell alcohol, but I didn’t say anything.
I smiled again and stood up.
That it has achieved results.
“I found their location.”
This means that we have discovered the location of the chaos fragment that entered Earth.
“iced coffee. “For some reason, they were all gathered in the same place.”
[Haiden claims that he found everything.]
I easily ignored Haiden and focused on Bekera’s words.
“Some of them were creating their own territory, so I specifically wiped them out.”
“Oooh! As expected, Bekera. “I believed it!”
Did they not only find the location of the guys, but also catch the guys who were separated?
You help us and even catch the fragments of chaos.
excellent. Very good!
When you do something good, you should be rewarded accordingly.
I took out the alcohol that was in my inventory.
Among the things I took with me while climbing when I had the chance was alcohol, and this is my favorite among them.
“Isn’t it fairy mead? “This is a delicacy!”
“I worked hard, so shouldn’t I drink that much?”
“I know how I feel! ha ha ha! “Isn’t this what you live for?”
[Haiden shouts that he could have done it himself.]
Write. Intervene without notice.
Just because you could do it doesn’t mean you didn’t do it.
When I glanced at the guy hiding in the corner, Haiden cleared his throat and appeared.
【It’s not that I didn’t do it. I was checking something more important than that.】
“Something important.”
【Fragments of Chaos. And humans. They took their seats at the gate.】
Gate?
It is clear that he is referring to the gate where the monster comes out.
Moreover, not only are there fragments of chaos, but there are also people?
‘This is it!’
I got a feeling.
A gate that appeared at the fair.
The Guryong guild members moved the gate to reach there.
Just like that, it’s not strange if other people are hiding at the gate.
In addition, the Kowloon Guild was one of the axes of Ouroboros.
‘A fragment of chaos working with the person Ophelia said she saw. That too is intertwined.’
I felt like I knew the identity of the guys at the gate.
Come to think of it, did you say that one of the forces that make up Ouroboros is the Big Three, international mercenaries?
The Middle East is where the Big Three originated.
The Middle East is also where Ophelia discovered traces of the fragments of chaos.
That means.
“These bastards. Are you trying to attract fragments of chaos instead of ending them as criminals?”
“Geueheh.”
It also meant that they were doing something more dangerous than we could imagine.
There is no need to wait.
“let’s go. “Guide me.”
Go to where they are.
“Your ability to act is the best! egg plant! go!”
【Whew. Why did I choose something like this as my successor?】
Haiden sighed or not, we moved to the place where we found the fragment of Chaos.
The destination is between the fallen Pakistan and western China, which has become the domain of monsters.
If you move quickly, you can arrive before daylight.
“Oh.”
Still, it shouldn’t suddenly disappear.
-I’ll bring you good news!
I didn’t forget to leave a message to the members.
