The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 309

309
In the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
A huge ship slowly approaching us.
Soon, we got close enough to see the ship with the naked eye.
“…what?!”
An embarrassed voice escaped me without my knowledge.
As expected, the ship had the words ‘Hanbyeol Trade’ written in large letters.
“Hanbyeol Trade…?”
“How can we get here in Hanbyeol…”
The troops on the deck, ready to attack, seemed equally perplexed.
“Shouldn’t we turn back quickly?”
“Didn’t you hear the news? “Why are you still sailing?”
Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin also voiced concerns.
I quickly came to my senses and immediately radioed the control team.
“Request the control team to communicate on board right now. “It’s dangerous here, so change the route.”
“Oh, I understand.”
At that time, everyone was looking at me with confused expressions, wondering what the hell was going on.
“Ah, can you hear me?”
The communication rang on our side of the ship.
“But why are your expressions like that? Did you see something you couldn’t see? Hahaha!」
A familiar voice and laughter.
The eyes of the headquarters directors, including me, narrowed.
“Look up.”
At those words, we shifted our gaze and soon saw a man waving his hand on the deck.
He is none other than…
“Hey, I see you all here. Hahaha!” Ha
Seong-il was the head of the overseas business division.
As soon as I saw him with a cheerful expression, I was dumbfounded.
“What is it…? Didn’t you hear the news? Under what circumstances are you sending a trade ship? “Why are you riding there?”
“Of course I heard the news. “The warship on which the New York branch troops were boarded was attacked in the Atlantic Ocean…”
His voice became quite serious.
“Director Chloe said that in this situation, we are also in danger. “You said you might need a ship to help…”
He shrugged once and continued.
“Well, wouldn’t something this big be enough?”
“Did the Chairman give permission? “If I were to take that one away, the loss would be enormous…”
“Hahaha.”
He laughed awkwardly for a moment.
“Actually… you don’t have to ask for permission anymore.”
“What is that…?”
“My grandfather stepped down from his position as chairman.”
“Are you sure you took over management rights?”
“Haha….”
He avoids answering.
‘Huh…’
A laugh burst out at the same time.
No matter what, you’re handing over the entire top company in the country to a guy who’s still so young?
Even in a wartime situation?
‘I guess I’m getting senile.’
I shook my head.
“Anyway, I don’t have time to stay like this. I heard you might be attacked. Let’s move quickly and get on board. “We’ve left all the containers empty so there will be enough room to board.”
“….”
I looked around for a moment.
Troops and sailors gathered on the deck.
In an emergency situation, the tension on our faces was evident not only for us but also for the rest of the ship.
It was completely unexpected that Hanbyeol Group moved, but it is no different from a club for us.
Even if we prepared for an air attack, a ship without a defense system would never have been safe.
To be honest… I survived thanks to you.
“All right.”
We immediately began preparing for boarding.
Although there were a huge number of people, they were moved quickly and without delay, and fortunately there was enough space.
When I boarded the cargo ship for the last time, Director Ha Seong-il immediately approached me.
“Then I will move right away. “There is a route we have a monopoly on, and if you sail that way, you will be able to arrive without being detected.”
“no.”
I answered immediately.
At the same time, Ha Seong-il’s eyebrows waved.
“Let’s stay away for now and observe the situation.”
“…yes yes?”
“It might be an opportunity.”
I thought it was an ambiguous answer, but Director Ha Seong-il did not ask any more questions.
As always, he nodded and followed my instructions without any objection. Soon the cargo ship began to increase the distance from the ship we had abandoned.
It has fallen to the point where it can barely be seen with the naked eye.
I held my breath and waited for someone.
And soon.
“…You’re here.”
Another ship was seen approaching the ship we had abandoned.
A hull with no information written on it.
Even though the routes overlap, no communication is attempted.
It is certainly.
As expected, our location has already been discovered by the International Association.
And soon.
bang-!!
The attack began without a moment of hesitation.
Kwakkwang-!!
The 14 ships instantly turned into a hive due to the barrage of skills pouring in like crazy, and soon began to sink helplessly.
The expressions on everyone’s faces as they watched the scene were very dark.
It seemed like they had finally realized that if they had been a little late, they would have been the ones to sink with that ship.
“If you’ve confirmed it, let’s leave now. If we wait any longer, we could be discovered…”
“Everyone, prepare to attack.”
Soon he looked back at his troops and gave an order.
Then, not only Director Ha Seong-il but also Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin’s eyes widened.
“Now wait a minute! “Is there any reason to launch an attack here?!”
“that’s right. “The priority is to arrive in New York safely, so for now….”
“You might not know if you didn’t run into it, but if you run into it, you can’t just go back.”
I said in a firm voice.
“Shouldn’t we avenge the New York branch?”
He looked at the Lions Clubs International Association ship with sharp eyes.
***
“Um… Secretary General.”
That’s when Secretary General Wesley’s communicator rang.
The captain continued speaking in a very embarrassed voice.
“All 14 ships have sunk, but no bodies have been identified.”
“Yes…?”
At the same time, Secretary General Wesley’s eyebrows twitched.
“Nothing was found?”
“yes yes. “Nothing at all.”
Soon Secretary General Wesley’s eyes narrowed.
That can’t be possible.
If the attack was successful, there must be confirmation in some form.
Even if the air attack plan was known, survival on a transport ship without a defense system would be nearly impossible.
‘But the fact that not a single body was found…’
Does that mean they escaped beforehand?
But I wouldn’t have time for that.
Then how on earth…
It was a time when I was carefully looking back at the number of cases.
‘Wait a minute…’
At that moment, his eyes widened.
“Retreat now!”
“Huh…?”
“It’s bait! “I don’t know where they might be watching…!”
That was the moment Secretary General Wesley shouted into the radio.
bang-!!
Jijijijik-.
Communication was cut off with a single loud noise.
“….”
There was heavy silence from the communicator.
Secretary General Wesley kept his mouth shut with a dumbfounded expression, but only for a moment.
“Ha ha ha….”
He soon let out a laugh.
Of course, it is true that I sincerely tried to kill him this time.
But part of me knew that I could never kill him like this.
Somehow, I will survive in some unthinkable way.
But even if you know it from experience, it doesn’t mean you can understand it with your head.
Even if they had known that there would be an air raid, they would not have been able to prepare an escape route in advance.
Even if you call a rescue boat that can take you right away, it is impossible to do it on time.
Nevertheless, the fact that the air raid was avoided can only be explained in one way.
Even though Kim Jun-woo did not ask for it, someone moved in advance to help him.
‘You have some pretty smart people as your colleagues…’
Didn’t CEO Emma always say this?
The reason why Kim Jun-woo is scary is not because of his skills, but because of his power to attract people.
How many people would help others in a desperate situation, even at the cost of their own loss?
Moreover, a person who is not a special relationship, but is just a boss at work.
Kim Jun-woo is casually doing things that make no sense according to common sense.
Because that’s what I’ve done so far.
That’s why people can’t be lost even in this chaotic situation.
Kim Jun-woo, who turned the entire world into his enemy, and Kim Jun-woo, who turned the whole world into his ally.
That power cannot even be compared.
but.
‘It all comes down to timing.’
As I said, it was something I had assumed to some extent.
If the attack is successful, it is of course good, but even if it fails, it is not a big problem.
No matter how well they work together, if they miss the right time, it’s all useless.
And they had already lost too much time in evacuation and counteroffensive.
In other words, they are already too late.
“Are you here?”
Thanks to that, we arrived in New York first.
“Is everything going well?”
“yes. “There is no particular problem.”
As Secretary General Wesley slowly got off the ship, employees who had already arrived in New York greeted him.
The entire force of the International Association, including Secretary General Wesley, quickly set foot in New York.
“How is the New York branch doing?”
“We are hastily gathering local manpower and desperately trying to stop it… but we won’t be able to hold out for long. “Even if we can’t, I think we can get the surrender within two hours.”
“What about the American military?”
“50% of the power was lost in just one day.”
A small smile appeared on Secretary General Wesley’s lips.
“If this continues according to the Secretary General’s plan, the entire United States will soon collapse.”
“great.”
Secretary General Wesley nodded.
“Let’s go to the branch first. “We have stories to share.”
“All right. “We have put the car on standby.”
Secretary General Wesley boarded the vehicle with guidance from staff.
The car slowly entered the city center, and soon the image of New York in chaos was revealed.
Secretary General Wesley smiled slightly as he stared at the hell-like scenery outside the window.
The U.S. military is also unable to use its power, and the New York branch, which is the final line of defense, is a candle in the wind.
In the end, it will only be a matter of time before America falls.
If the Lions Clubs International conquers the United States, the whole world will soon be shaken.
Can WDSO really stop the International Association?
Even the United States has collapsed, so is it okay to continue to stick to WDSO?
Wouldn’t just joining an international association save your life?
It can instill such fear and confusion throughout the world.
From then on, WDSO, no, Kim Jun-woo’s biggest weapon disappears.
Because they will start losing people who believed in them and followed them.
As I was lost in thought for a moment, the car finally stopped.
Arrived in front of the New York branch building.
When Secretary General Wesley got out of the car and looked at the New York branch, it was truly despairing.
A building on the verge of collapse.
In front of them, the hunters were already guarding the defense line, looking completely devastated.
Secretary General Wesley slowly approached them.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Wesley.’
I said hello first, but no one from the branch troops responded.
Just when I was feeling quite embarrassed, a man walked out among the New York troops.
“How could you not know?”
That man is none other than the head of the New York branch.
“You are the most famous terrorist in the world.”
Michael was the branch manager.
terrorist.
Secretary General Wesley’s eyebrows twitched again at those words, but only for a moment.
He spoke to Branch Manager Michael in a calm voice.
“How about we stop here? “I don’t think sacrificing employees anymore is something I can’t do as a leader.”
“That’s not what you would say.”
Branch Manager Michael snorted and answered.
“And we’re not making any sacrifices.”
“then…?”
Branch President Michael continued speaking while looking straight at Secretary General Wesley.
“We are fighting back.”
An unexpected answer.
Secretary General Wesley’s eyebrows rose.
“Is there really a need for that? “I’m not a merciless killer, and if I surrender, no one will get hurt.”
“In return, you will lose your freedom.”
Branch Manager Michael responded immediately.
“No one knows that if all the associations in each country, including WDSO, collapse, then you will control everything.”
“….”
“They will control not only the dungeon industry such as subjugation and by-product distribution, but also all political, economic and diplomacy based on it. And we will live under it with everything under control.”
“You know very well.”
Secretary General Wesley answered with a warm smile.
OK.
“But…what does that mean?”
Branch Manager Michael suddenly asked a question.
The question that no one has ever asked and no one has ever questioned.
“What on earth can be achieved by controlling the international community and citizens like that?”
“….”
When the question that fundamentally denied his goal was asked, the smile slowly disappeared from Secretary General Wesley’s face.
“It means…”
His eyes turned into space.
A hollow, skeptical voice.
It was only then that Secretary General Wesley faced what he was doing head-on for the first time.
