“What do you say…?”
Karma Corporation headquarters.
Kim Min-joo, who heard the news late, woke up immediately.
“A monster has escaped from Hong Kong! Dungeons also keep appearing. “They say the city center has been completely devastated!”
Director Ha Seong-il once again delivered the news in an excited voice.
“Teacher… are you okay?”
“The last contact was from the airport, but they said that the airport has collapsed…” “
…!”
Kim Min-ju’s pupils shook greatly.
At the same time, my eyes wandered with nowhere to go.
However, even for a moment, Kim Min-ju immediately bit her trembling lips and held on to reason.
Yes, this is Kim Jun-woo of the world.
That man couldn’t have died just because the airport collapsed.
Even if you ran away beforehand or were unable to evacuate, you will still be alive somehow.
Anyway, the important thing is that Kim Jun-woo is currently unavailable.
If you lose your composure in such a situation, nothing will happen.
‘First of all, let’s start with what I can do…’
I muttered like that a few times.
“…When was the accident?”
I soon regained my cool and asked General Manager Ha Seong-il.
“It was 5 hours ago.”
“It will be difficult for the Hong Kong branch to handle this situation alone. If 5 hours had passed, we would have already requested support from headquarters. “The teacher is stranded, so he won’t be able to use his hands…”
Kim Min-ju organized the situation step by step.
But the more I organized my thoughts, the more I felt something eerie.
Doesn’t everything fit together strangely?
An accident that suddenly occurred as soon as we went to Hong Kong for the acquisition.
The first place to be attacked was exactly the airport where Kim Jun-woo was.
Is this really a coincidence?
‘Unless you intentionally tie up the teacher’s feet and take advantage of the confusion to retake the Hong Kong branch…’
Kim Min-ju, whose thoughts had gone that far, could no longer remain still.
I immediately took out my cell phone and called Yubin Han.
“Where are you now, Yubin?”
“It’s Uijeongbu. Have you heard any news about it? “Now in Hong Kong…!”
“I heard.”
A firm voice.
“Please gather all the people you can muster now.”
“Are you sure you want to go in person?”
“If we continue like this, the Hong Kong branch will be taken over before we can even do anything.”
“Is this Junwoo’s order?”
“No. “I can’t contact the teacher.”
“yes yes?! Did something happen?! “Then we have to save Junwoo first!”
“Teacher, he’ll be okay.”
“What is that…!”
“Mr. Yubin, you’re okay.”
Kim Min-ju said clearly.
Han Yu-bin could no longer respond to that decisiveness.
“Right now, the teacher is probably doing what he can. So, we have to do what we can.”
“I heard the airport was destroyed. “How are you going to get there?”
“….”
That was the point.
How can we get to Hong Kong when the airport is collapsed?
Due to the situation in the first place, it is highly unlikely that permission to land would be granted.
Above all….
“During the American branch, we had to rent an aircraft so it was easy to dispatch personnel, but not now. There is no means to dispatch more than 100 people at once. There is no way the Chinese association would welcome a third party interfering.”
“….”
Minju Kim bit her lip.
We cannot expect China to send a transport plane.
If this happens, there is no way to get to Hong Kong….
“You can just go to Guangzhou Airport. “That’s the closest place to Hong Kong.”
It was then.
A man burst open the office door with his attendants.
Director Kim Min-ju and Ha Seong-il’s eyes widened.
“Grand President…?”
The unexpected guest was none other than President Cho Hyun-min.
“We have already received permission to land. “Get ready right now.”
“But there are flights that can carry personnel and equipment…”
“We have the Blue House’s private plane on standby.”
“…!”
President Cho Hyun-min continued speaking with stern eyes.
“It will be enough to carry equipment as well as the dispatch team.”
“…thank you.”
“This is a business that I personally authorized. Of course, we should help as much as we can.”
President Cho Hyun-min smiled.
But it wasn’t long before he spoke seriously again.
“The only problem is after arriving in Guangzhou. From what we found out, all roads leading to Hong Kong were already blocked. We would have to use a helicopter….”
“There is a Hanbyul Construction branch in Guangzhou.”
At that time, Director Ha Seong-il stepped forward.
“You can use a helicopter for transport there. I’ll talk to my sister. “I will help you with anything related to the CEO.”
President Cho Hyun-min nodded instead of answering.
Soon, Minju Kim smiled and picked up her phone again.
“Did you hear? Please form a dispatch team right now and have them stand by.”
She said.
“Let’s go to Hong Kong.”
***
“This is the headquarters control team.”
Hong Kong branch.
Reinforcement troops from the mainland finally arrived.
The leader of the Laibiu control team, who was at the forefront of them, approached Branch Manager Hwang and spoke.
“As of now, we will take over the operational command of the Hong Kong branch.”
“…Please take care of me.”
Director Hwang bowed his head to the man, who was much younger than him, and answered.
Rai Control Team Leader asked, straightening his back.
“So what is the current situation?”
“The evacuation of citizens has almost been completed, but the escaped monsters have invaded the downtown area.”
“Hmm, I understand. “From now on, we will take charge of the matter, so you can rest assured, branch manager.”
Eventually, when he made a gesture, the headquarters control team members put their radios in their ears and moved to their respective positions in perfect order.
Director Hwang looked at this and frowned.
‘I can feel safe…?’
You’re talking bullshit.
No matter how well this incident is handled, isn’t it obvious that they will continue to hold on to command under the pretext of follow-up measures and future preparations?
Since we have come this far, it is as if the branch has already been taken over by the headquarters.
“Are the airport rescue operations still ongoing?”
At that time, the Rai control team leader asked Branch Manager Hwang.
“yes? Yes, that’s true, but…”
“Everyone, please withdraw immediately. “If work continues under the current circumstances, the rescue team will be in danger.”
“What does that mean! “There might be survivors…!”
“It might exist, but it hasn’t been confirmed, right?”
“…!”
Director Hwang was speechless at the absurd answer.
“Honestly, if there was that level of destruction, there would be no survivors. “Shouldn’t we avoid putting branch personnel in danger because of the slim probability?”
“still…!”
“Branch manager.”
Team Leader Lai continued speaking in a stern voice.
“This is an order. “You haven’t forgotten that I am the person in charge now, right?”
“….”
In the end, Director Hwang lowered his head.
‘It’s over…’
I couldn’t help but laugh at the reality that the branch was truly out of my hands.
“Then just go out now.”
“…yes.”
Director Hwang left those words behind and turned his back with a pained expression.
And soon.
“Ah… can I ask you one thing?”
He turned his head again and opened his mouth towards Team Leader Rai.
“Please tell me.”
“The airport. It was not a situation where we could be attacked by monsters, both in terms of time and location…”
Branch Manager Hwang’s sharp gaze turned to Team Leader Lai.
“Do you have any idea what on earth attacked you?”
“….”
At that moment, Team Leader Lai’s face suddenly hardened.
But even for a moment.
He let out a chuckle and shrugged his shoulders.
“well. How would I know that? “I’m just someone who heard the news and applied.”
“…okay.”
At the answer that seemed as if it had been decided from the beginning, Director Hwang nodded and left the control room.
The head of the branch control team, Ryu, who was waiting outside, immediately approached.
“What happened?”
“It’s obvious what will happen. From now on, the branch will be under the command of the authorities.”
“Did you ask about the airport?”
“…They said they didn’t know.”
Team Leader Ryu shook his head.
“That can’t be possible. “I checked several times, but there was absolutely no way the airport could be attacked.”
“….”
“Is it possible that the authorities attacked the branch on purpose to retake it…”
“Shh!”
Branch Manager Hwang urgently stopped him.
He then glanced at the control room door and spoke quietly.
“I know what you want to say… but not here.”
“….”
“First, gather a few trustworthy people.”
Branch Manager Hwang continued speaking in a sharp voice.
“Let’s do a search near the airport.”
Team leader Ryu nodded and immediately left the room.

“What what….”
“Wasn’t it a rescue team?!”
“for a moment! “Can that be…?”
The vibration continued several times.
Soon, the ceiling collapsed once more, revealing the entrance to the dungeon that had just been created.
“The dungeon…?”
“Why is the dungeon here….”
“Why on earth is this happening!”
The survivors began to panic.
Their faces were a mixture of despair that they were not a rescue team and fear that a dungeon had appeared before their eyes.
but.
“…It actually worked out well.”
After looking at the dungeon entrance for a moment, I smiled and opened my mouth.
“What does that mean?”
“It would be safer inside the dungeon than waiting in a place where you never know when it will collapse.”
Those words immediately caught the attention of the survivors.
I also turned to them and spoke loudly.
“Let’s all go into the dungeon first. From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem to be that dangerous.”
“Go into the dungeon more…?”
“Is it okay…?”
“What if I encounter a monster?”
As expected, the reactions were agitated.
But that didn’t last long either.
“Fuck you, I don’t know! “It’s better than being killed here!”
Someone jumped up and shouted.
Soon, without hesitation, I headed to the dungeon entrance.
“Yeah! “Whether I die here or there, it’s the same!”
“The dungeon might be safer!”
Several people stood up after him.
Starting with this, those who had been watching also stood up.
The survivors began to file into the dungeon.
“Then let’s go too.”
Director Lee Ah-young grabbed me.
But I shook my head.
“You go in first.”
“…yes?”
“I’m going to take a moment to figure out a way to contact the outside world.”
“What is that…?”
She trailed off, then nodded as if she understood what he meant.
“all right. Instead, you have to follow right away. “If anything happens, you are the only one here who can protect those people.”
“I know.”
Only after hearing the answer did Ayoung Lee move into the dungeon.
Right after all the survivors entered the dungeon.
I was left alone and took a deep breath.
Since there are no people around, you can use a skill to blow away the entire wreckage… but there
may still be other survivors left somewhere.
If we are not careful, a secondary collapse could endanger others.
So far, no escape attempts have been made.
But at least you can drill a hole.
A very strong and sharp blow is needed to prevent a secondary collapse.
“Whoa….”

The moment you close one eye and focus all your attention on the tip of your index finger.
Blood-!
The thin but sharp skill pierced the ceiling.
A hole about the size of your forearm.
The outside wind slowly began to come in through there.
However, it was still not enough to receive radio waves.
I slowly climbed up the space created when the dungeon appeared.
After continuing to climb upward and catch the radio waves.
Tiriring-.
Finally, the cell phone rang.
At the same time, dozens of missed calls and texts started pouring in like crazy.
‘You’ve come a long way…’
It was at that time when I was slowly checking the text message.
“What the hell!”
“Is anyone there?!”
“hey! “Answer me!”
People’s voices came from above through the hole.
I immediately raised my voice at that very welcome sound.
“yes! There’s someone here! “Are you a rescue team affiliated with the branch?”
“Oh no. “All rescue teams withdrew.”
what…?
The rescue team withdrew?
No matter how difficult the task is, what if there may be no survivors left?
‘Tsk…’
No matter how much you think about it, this is absolutely not an order that the branch office should give.
It looks like the authorities have taken command.
“We are a search team that came out to search under the branch manager’s orders.”
“Excuse me, sir, but could you tell me your name?”
“Are there any more survivors inside?”
Their voices came through the hole again.
“My name is Kim Jun-woo, CEO of Karma Corporation. There were more survivors, but a dungeon appeared inside, so we evacuated them there. “There may be more than us.”
“CEO Kim?”
“Are you really CEO Kim?!”
A startled voice.
And then he continues talking right away.
“Joe, please wait a moment. Contact the branch manager right now and start rescue work again….”
“No. “Now that the authorities have taken command, it is dangerous for you, members of the branch, to move.”
“How did you do that…?”
What should I do?
That’s pretty much it.
“Then… what should we do?”
“First, please return to the branch and tell the branch leader that there are survivors. And from now on…”
Saying that, I checked the letters I had finished reading one more time.
“Currently, the headquarters dispatch team has arrived at Guangzhou Airport! “We will receive helicopter support from Hanbyul Construction and go to Hong Kong. If you can contact us, please call us immediately.”
“A third party will move.”
I put my phone away and smiled.
