「Korea Economic Research Institute Column/Reckless Hero Exports Lead to Outflow of National Wealth.
: After the 1997 foreign exchange crisis, several controversies arose over the word “national wealth outflow”. Some claim that it is a harsh reality, while others see it as a term of a countryman.
However, the clear fact is that by accepting the IMF’s demands for macroeconomic management, the hurdles for the hero’s overseas transfer have also been lowered.
It’s not hard to find examples of that.
Kramon, Hwara, and Dujung Group, which were dramatically revived thanks to the foreign debt transfusion, put the majority of raid members on the transfer market to prevent capital erosion.
Those with the highest level of ability moved to Western countries, and others moved to Southeast Asia, Japan, and the Middle East.
And this can be seen as one of the ‘outflows of national wealth’ that Korea had to pay for.
This is because it is necessary to consider not only the financial aspect, but also the security vacuum.
In fact, if you look at the statistics at the time, about 11 percent of private companies’ human resources were leaked.
It took 7 years to fill the vacancy later, and in terms of quality, it was barely restored after 15 years.
The transfer of hero Lee Yong-soo, which has recently attracted public attention, is also on the same line.
Age 15, rank 5, melee dealer.
It is said that Jaewon of Korea, who has a good age, ability, and professional characteristics, received a love call from the United States.
The transfer fee presented by HT Group is approximately KRW 157 billion, and the offer itself is not surprising, but the significance of the amount is worthy of concern.
Should the best talent be sent abroad?
Needless to say, the excellence of the talent training project called ‘Top Notch’, the statistics of the heroes who went abroad again stand out.
Even if you look only at Korea’s study abroad projects, the rate of being scouted by local companies is 76%, and most of them chose to stay in the country.
If so, will the hero Lee Yong-soo stay in Korea?
If you go, will you come back?
There is no need to doubt his patriotism, but we must recognize that the risks are great as well as the benefits.
Additionally, according to my sources, HT Group is grappling with exorbitant transfer fees.
Considering the people’s concerns and national interests, now is the time for the government to act… … .」
Southern part of Uiwang-si, Gyeonggi-do.
The controversial boy accepts the third mission and is going outside the third barrier to explore the area to be pioneered.
The area of operation was a lake located in a crevice of a mountain range, approximately 1.4 km wide.
I couldn’t chase the monster on the frozen water, so I waited for the right time, hiding my presence in a white camouflage suit.
thump, thump!
The target is four Arietos gathered near the water’s edge.
Like a monster whose main method of attack is headbutting, he hits the ice with his hard head.
In response, Seong-Min Lim, a member of OSSAM, urged him with his eyes, asking if it was alright to attack, but Lee Yong-soo just stared at the front in silence.
Then, after a while, the number increases with the sound of ice crystals crumbling.
When the ice sheet broke and water intake became possible, eight of the same species broke their guard and came out through a gap in the bush.
With this, all 12 Arietos to be subjugated were gathered.
Took.
Soon, the boy taps Im Seong-min’s forearm and demands [metal control], and pieces of iron stuck in the snow rise into the air all at once.
At the same time, Park Geon-young’s hands holding a spear were sweaty, and Lim Seol-ha breathed life into the machine spirit with a firm expression.
It is a combination of modern science and light spirits.
Creeper!
A full-fledged attack was carried out serially from the very moment he felt the waves of monsters’ power.
The moment metal shards fall like rain.
Small robots in the shape of butterflies fly inside the base of the fluff.
Immediately, a group of monsters tried to charge, but the special ability [light spot] was manifested, and beams of light gathered in one place and burned their eyeballs.
The critical hit that followed was from a single spear covered with [Penetration] and [Weapon Adjustment], followed by a terrifying blast sound, and those whose bodies were pierced were incapacitated.
Since seven of them were subdued in the first attack, the remaining five naturally became the responsibility of close-quarters.
“Toya-”
“three.”
“Three, take responsibility. It’s not small, but I’m responsible.”
The giant’s response was clumsy.
I was in a hurry to block it, so I was busy holding it rather than hitting it, and luckily the hand that hit the head slipped without a hit.
However, since I possess the specialized abilities [hard skin], universal abilities [steel bone], and [intermediate tissue regeneration], there is no difficulty in carrying out the mission assigned to me.
And the boy-
play a joke
The head, like a battering ram that came from the front, was bounced back using [Return], and the other was evaded using only physical abilities.
He soon tripped over his leg.
It was true that it was good to play with because it was a level 9 monster, but in reality it was taking time for role training.
In the case of melee, the average engagement time for the first encounter is only 8 seconds.
In that short time, the battle estimate is set, and those who want to be burdened are instinctively pushed to the rear.
Lee Yong-soo himself did not know it, but the vast majority of low-level melee dealers were like that.
So, assuming it’s an emergency, kill one and let the other go.
“1st line target lost, single entity!”
“I will stop you! Stay seated!”
It was the responsibility of Park Geon-young, who had a shield and a spear.
* * *
right after the battle is over.
The party moves and sits on the bank of the plain, listening to the boy’s advice.
Speaking of dispatch experience, it’s only the third in the past two weeks.
However, the operation was always over before the appointed time, and I was used to listening to feedback while waiting for the dispatch supervisor and the regular raid.
“Overall it wasn’t the worst.”
“phew.”
“It doesn’t mean that it is good.”
“… … .”
Perhaps because of the experience of being harshly reprimanded during the second dispatch, Im Seol-ha hastily sighs of relief and gets hit.
“From what I said, Im Seol-ha. The ability to control spirits and use mechanical moths is pretty good.”
“… Butterflies, not moths-”
“The handling of the situation was also very good. The timing of the [light spot] and the decision to help Toya were good, whether it was a direct attack or an enhancement type.”
“Hmm, hmm. yes?”
“However, the advantages are as clear as the disadvantages. fitness first. If it’s not an attacking method, you’re busy gasping with your tongue. Besides, it’s a problem that the bowl of superpowers is small. You are back at work.”
“no?”
“… … .”
“… yes.”
While Lee Yong-soo frowns, Park Geon-young feels frustrated at the girl looking at him.
It seems like you don’t know what a good opportunity this situation is right now.
Right now, the equipment was leased by the HT Group, and the shield and short spear held in the left hand were each studded with jewels, boasting incomparable destructive power.
On top of that, each individual’s rhythm was heard without hesitation during each operation, and the number of dispatches was increased in consideration of the financial situation of the engineering team members.
I don’t know why, but it’s an undeniable fact that at least the boy did the favor, so they had to work a lot harder.
“If it had been a stable growth environment, it would have been considered a part of training to completely consume one’s abilities. But you are not. In real life, if you run out of abilities, you die. No matter what excuse you have, you can’t take your life back.”
“Sorry. But we… Isn’t it pretty stable? You take care of everything… … .”
“… … .”
As a result, the father cannot stand it and intervenes in the conversation.
Im Seol-ha’s personality wasn’t angular, but he lacked a bit when it came to grasping reality.
“It’s because the difficulty of dispatching is still low, but it turns out it’s entirely our fault. Since the rank of the engineering unit is reflected, you are only receiving low-level missions. If you want to be with Yongsu all the time, you have to raise your individual level somehow. Of course, I’m not saying this from the position that’s the lowest in the rankings, but… I wonder if it would be better to cut down on part-time jobs. At least after the dispatch allowance is settled.”
“yes. I was just going to do it until next month. I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to make you feel bad.”
“You are not going to apologize to me.”
Fortunately or unfortunately, the captain of the team didn’t talk about it any more.
He just pointed out Toya and started giving the next advice, and then dissected Park Gun-young one after another.
“It was good to go out without fear, but I lacked the ability to stop the enemy. You injured your finger because your skill with the shield is below the standard.”
“I was told to block it… What could be the problem?”
“It hit me too head on. There is only a difference in position between defensive AD and tank, but the work is similar. It’s to delay time until your teammates kill the enemy and join you. Rather than confronting it directly, you should have chosen to strike it obliquely and draw attention.”
“… To be honest, it was complicated in my head because I was worried about Fumi. I thought it would be the end if it was pierced, so my feet stiffened.”
Of course, not friendly.
“Originally yes. If you’re not feeling well, your head suffers.”
“… … .”
“Think less. In combat, it’s best to walk the line between reason and instinct, but you’re imagining too much.”
The opinion that the opposite is not the case is hidden deep in the throat.
I’ve been through too much to open up a counterargument.
“A person. Toya, I’m worried. many.”
“Yeah. Shouldn’t I go and dry it?”
“It is sprinkled with monster blood. Contaminated animal, run.”
It was the same when a civilian suddenly appeared on the other side of the lake and made a fuss, just looking at the explanation with a calm expression.
“Leave it alone. It’s a daily routine for them.”
“… daily life?”
“The reason it’s hard to get drinking water inland is because quite a few lakes are all polluted, but thanks to that, we enjoy small benefits.”
“What benefit? It’s just polluted water. The entire lake is black.”
“right. Carcasses of monsters and tainted beasts sink and emit a foul smell in the summer. It’s definitely a level that humans can’t drink. Instead, in winter, a layer of sediment builds up at the bottom of the lake. Although it looks like mud on the outside, it is full of various loot. Then like that-“
Just in time, the villagers start tapping the ice with various tools.
“Break the ice and dive.”
“… Without safety equipment?”
“Still, close your nostrils and go in. It won’t be long before you pay the price, but you’ll be able to get the trade goods.”
“What, what trade items?”
“Things that do not corrode within a year, such as monster claws and teeth. Even the mud contains a high concentration of salt, so it is refined and sold as salt.”
The boy let out a small snort while showing signs that it was difficult for anyone to understand.
As it turns out, the main consumption of black salt is area 1 within the barrier.
Under the false rumor that it is nutritious and good for stamina, it was a product that was sold frighteningly on the market.
