「As a result of the search of the blockade area, it was confirmed that all troops left after the fire broke out.」
Russian National Assembly.
Association President Dmitry relayed the news to Vladimir.
“Okay, that’s good.”
“But there is a problem. I think 3 days will be enough to extinguish the fire. In the meantime, it seems like it will be difficult for us to search as well.”
“What…?”
Minister Vladimir’s eyebrows twitched.
“You’re saying we can’t search for that long? “Once the fire is extinguished, everyone will gather again, this and that, so what’s the point if you can’t find them inside?”
“But it’s still too dangerous. The fire was so strong that even if we searched in fire gear, we wouldn’t have been able to survive for less than 10 minutes…”
“Who doesn’t know it’s dangerous? Don’t you think it’s worth the price of burning a mountain? Now that everyone has retreated, this is our only chance to find that item first!”
「….」
Association President Dmitri also knew that it had to be that way.
What was the reason for setting fire to the Ural Mountains, which are called the waist of Russia, in the first place?
Wasn’t it to chase away all the people who were hunting for treasures in other countries and obtain items during that time?
However, there is no point in prescribing extreme medication if you have to wait until the fire is extinguished.
We have to proceed with the search somehow, but…
‘Haa…’
Minister Vladimir let out a long sigh.
Know.
The fire is still raging, but there is no guarantee that they will be found even if they send in manpower blindly.
However, if we unblock the supernatural faction, it is obvious that other people will get the information first.
What should I do?
How can we find the item before others gather?
Minister Vladimir thought for a while while holding the phone, but…
he couldn’t come up with a sharp number.
No matter how much you think about it, the Russian Association’s current technological capabilities cannot find items faster than the International Association and WDSO.
If the fire is extinguished like this, they will gather again, and no matter who gets their hands on it first, Russia will not even get to see it.
In that case….
“I can’t help it.”
“Huh…?”
“We have no choice but to prevent anyone from entering.”
“What is that…”
The voice of Association President Dmitry was heard from the other side of the cell phone, trying to understand the situation.
But even for a moment.
“Let’s hold a press conference.”
Minister Vladimir gave instructions.
“Conflict between the International Association and WDSO broke out in Russia, causing great damage, including a forest fire….”
「…!」
Association President Dmitry was able to immediately understand what that meant.
“To prevent further damage, both sides will completely ban all activities within Russia and will take military action if this is violated.”
“…Are you okay?”
Association President Dmitry asked anxiously.
“On the contrary, if an armed conflict breaks out, we will be at a greater disadvantage…”
“No.”
However, Minister Vladimir shook his head and answered immediately.
“It has only been one day since the Lions Clubs International Association and WDSO faced off head-on. “The loss of power would be significant, and we would not have been able to recover enough to fight again.”
「….」
“At least both of you would like to avoid battle. “In this situation, no matter how ordinary military power is, it cannot be ignored.”
Minister Vladimir continued speaking with a confident voice.
“So, after the press conference, make sure to convey this to both organizations again.”
Soon his eyes sparkled.
“As of now, you can’t take a single ant baby inside Russia.”
In the end, it was decided to join both organizations.
After finishing the phone call, Minister Vladimir was lost in thought for a moment.
Of course, we still don’t know what the item in the Ural Mountains is.
‘At best, it’s a top-quality by-product or equipment material…’
That’s something we don’t need in the first place.
However, the fact that it is an item that both the Lions Clubs International Association and WDSO are eagerly looking for makes it worth obtaining.
Negotiation deal.
Or threats.
Even if you cannot use the item directly, there are many ways to use it.
The country currently leading the international community is neither the United States nor China.
Lions Clubs International and WDSO.
Two organizations control the world.
If this item can give us an edge over the two organizations…
‘Your Excellency will like it.’
The corners of his mouth went up infinitely.
***
Boom!
Bank Item Control Center.
Secretary General Wesley broke open the door and entered.
And then they immediately started searching inside the center like crazy.
Under the desk.
In the equipment box.
I searched every corner of every sector…
“Fuck!!”
No one is here.
There was no record of exit until I just checked the entry and exit records.
So, did he escape while coming here?
If that’s the case, I’m glad.
Since we didn’t encounter each other on the way, the places to go are limited.
If you search right now, you will definitely find it.
But more than that…
‘Why on earth did she come here…?’
A more fundamental question crossed Secretary General Wesley’s mind.
Chloe.
Former PB Corporation Bank item management team leader.
Although he was a key member of the International Association.
As the friction with WDSO became unfavorable, I switched to WDSO like a bat.
Why did such a person take the risk of crawling back to headquarters?
Well, I probably didn’t come to pick up something I left behind.
‘….’
That moment when I stood in silence for a moment and gathered my thoughts.
“…no way.”
As if something immediately occurred to him, Secretary General Wesley headed straight to area A-3.
At the same time, his face became thoughtful.
“….”
An empty bank item storage chamber.
As expected, something happened.
“Fuck, fuck!!”
bang-!!
Unable to contain his anger, he struck the wall with his fist, and in an instant, a black air current burst out and the center shook greatly.
And soon.
“Secretary General…!”
“What’s going on?!”
The employees who followed Secretary General Wesley belatedly asked.
But it didn’t take long for them to realize what had happened.
“What is it…?”
“Why is the chamber empty?”
At that time, the employees were also looking at the empty space where the bank items should have been with a devastated expression on their faces.
“…lock down the headquarters.”
Secretary General Wesley’s low voice rang out.
“As of this hour, not a single ant can leave the headquarters. Also, check all CCTVs in the records room and deploy troops to each area to search for intruders.”
“We don’t have that much manpower right now…”
“Move the fuck right now!!”
A black air current bursts out again with his shout.
The startled employees quickly left the center without even thinking about responding.
After they leave, the control center is left alone again.
“….”
Secretary General Wesley clenched his fists with sad eyes.
It is certainly.
WDSO also received information about Eden.
Knowing that the International Association would move to Russia to find Eden, they took advantage of that opportunity and attacked the headquarters.
You would have thought that you could steal the bank items now that no one is around.
Even after hearing the news that Eden had been discovered, he made a bold decision to head towards the enemy camp rather than that location.
An operation aimed precisely at a loophole.
A plan that catches you off guard.
It’s definitely true.
Kim Jun-woo is making the move himself.
I never thought he would come visit me in person like this, saying he never saw the end of Germany.
But he probably didn’t expect it either.
‘I didn’t expect me to return this quickly…’
He left the control center and disappeared with the bank item while he was checking the access records.
In other words, he was hiding somewhere in the center at the time he returned to headquarters.
In that case, they are the ones in urgent need.
For them, this is the middle of enemy territory.
It is the headquarters of the International Association.
You will never get out safely.
Secretary General Wesley slowly left the center with a stern expression.
***
“Woo where are we going now?!”
As we left the center and were running frantically down the hallway, Minju Kim asked.
“Do you know Nandeul?”
Of course, there is no way he was thinking anything.
Because it was just running back and forth.
In my hands were two cases containing dimension stones and time stones.
It was unexpected for Secretary General Wesley to return so quickly.
Fortunately, I was able to take advantage of the opportunity he left to retrieve the bank item, but…
‘The problem is whether I can escape…’
Let’s try laying down the iron plate and breaking through the front door like before.
No, in the current situation, that is too much of a gamble.
‘Then what should I do…’
At that time, my head kept spinning even while I was running.
“An intruder has occurred in the control center! An intruder has occurred! “All employees are requested to report any suspicious personnel immediately.”
An announcement rang out through the hallway speakers.
It was revealed.
‘It’s not a good idea to sneak away.’
At that time, I wondered if I should destroy the building and run away.
“There is an emergency exit in the basement.”
Chloe, who was ahead, said.
“If you arrive before the blockade, you can get out without being detected. That would be better than doing something that stands out for no reason.”
“…All right.”
“Come this way.”
Soon she took the lead and started guiding us.
Eventually, we reached the emergency exit.
“Damn….”
“Haa….”
The moment we hid ourselves in the corner and checked the front of the emergency exit, we let out a deep sigh.
“Concentrate. “They are skilled hunters.”
“All right.”
“Fire as soon as you spot it and don’t let your guard down.”
Troops were already positioned in front of the emergency exit.
“…What should we do now?”
“It seems like there are only a few people, so let’s just push through it with force, right?”
When Director Lee Ah-young asked the question while holding her breath, Han Yu-bin expressed her opinion.
‘Is that really the only way?…’
The number of people confirmed was 5.
It’s worth dealing with.
I looked at Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin and nodded, and everyone got ready for battle.
“Go back.”
At that time, Chloe spoke with a very serious expression.
“yes yes?”
“What do you mean?! “How many people…!”
“The anti-neungseok equipment we made before is still left here.”
Chloe answered immediately, interrupting Yubin Han.
At the same time, everyone’s faces hardened.
“The moment you rush in, your skills will be blocked, and then you will be the only one who can fight.”
Chloe looked at me.
“Can you handle it alone? And that while protecting four people and bank items?”
“….”
What do you think of me?
Of course it is possible.
Of course…
if I were the same as before.
[Awakening Passive: Wise Cleaner]
[Your unique skill has been changed due to the effect of this passive.]
[Your unique class has been reset.]
My current status is a state where both my unique skill and unique class have been reset.
I don’t even know what kind of skill it is or what effect it has, but is it really the right choice to engage in battle?
‘If it’s not an attack skill…’
At that point, you won’t be able to use your hands anymore.
This is the headquarters of the International Association in the middle of enemy territory.
You can’t gamble in the middle of enemy territory.
“…Let’s go back.”
In the end, I made the same decision as Chloe.
Since I had given the order, there was no time to object.
That moment when everyone was about to go back the way they came.
“Have you checked the first and second floors?”
“Yes, I confirmed it. Considering that it wasn’t captured on CCTV, it seems like there is someone who knows the inside situation well…
”
I started to hear other troops talking from behind.
The sound was getting closer and closer.
‘Fuck…’
I felt like we were right in front of my nose.
Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin immediately prepared to attack, while Lee Ah-young and Chloe hid behind them.
If things continue like this, we will be surrounded.
What should I do?
How can I get out of here?
The moment when my hair became grayer.
“….”
Something in the corner caught my eye.
At the same time, sparks flew in my head.
“…I think there is a way.”
I picked up the dungeon cleaning tools in the corner.
