“A sudden quest? What else is this?”
When Tae-jung muttered while looking out the window, Gerard responded immediately.
– That’s strange.
“what?”
-The quest for the special melee weapon system is a quest that should not be open now.
“why?”
– The preceding level is 700.
“Then what is this?”
– It seems that unexpected events in the Fantasy Science Park caused errors.
“A mistake. But isn’t the conclusion good? I’m in my 500s now, but if it opened 200 times ahead of me.”
– Humans saw this and expressed that luck reached the sky.
“It’s also a windfall.”
He didn’t know what had happened, but it was a stroke of luck to him.
A quest that should have been opened a while later came out in advance.
Moreover, if the preceding level is 700, wouldn’t the reward be as great?
I opened the quest window right away with a heart full of anticipation.
[Melee special weapon system.]
It was a time when military reinforcements centered on airframes were prevalent.
An international military weapon standard established for efficient combat.
The first standard was Korea’s Project K, but later the official name was changed to Project G5, in which the US, UK, Japan, and Australia participated.
Along with the Z7, which was joined by seven countries, including China and Russia, it has established itself as two major weapon systems.
Goal – Find Lee Soo-young, director of the research institute who attended the World Military Science Association LLD, and obtain documents on the close-in special weapons system.
Reward – Activation of a melee special weapon system.
“Lee Soo-young, the head of the research institute. Is it that girl? no could be a man But right now, this is not important.”
It was obviously a good thing for him that this quest was opened, but the situation was not very good.
Not only is the rescue team scattered, but it is unknown where the away team is fighting and what kind of danger they are facing.
The first thing was to find them.
“Where did everyone disappear to?”
Tae-jeong decided to search the inside of the laboratory first.
While looking for guild members, I thought of looking for Lee Soo-young, the head of the research institute.
I have to do a search anyway.
So he started walking slowly.
* * *
A dark space blocked on all sides by irregular rocks.
There were dozens of people gathered in this place, where you couldn’t even see an inch ahead.
“How are we now? Will the others be all right?”
“I do not know. I keep trying to communicate, but… There is no answer.”
Conversing quietly as if dead, they were an away team that had been dispatched to New Zealand about two months ago.
Their boat broke down due to unexpected bad weather, and they barely landed on the nearest island to live.
At that time, they had no idea what kind of place this place was.
I had only a vague idea that it might be a beach in Hokkaido because something went wrong when I crossed the Inland Sea of Japan and entered the Sea of Okhotsk (North Pacific).
I was trying to explore the surroundings by forming a group like that, but suddenly the monsters attacked.
At first, I didn’t think much of it.
Hokkaido was an undeveloped area and was known as a huge dungeon in Japan.
I was familiar with that level as well, so there was no particular problem with my personal life.
The level of the away team was also the same, but it was because the leader of the 3rd engineering team, who was ranked 5th in the Zenix ranking, was here.
But when the first raid was followed by the second, they knew something was wrong.
It was because even if the monster was strong enough that the technique couldn’t work, it was too strong.
The first person to figure it out was Park Seong-min, the head of the 3rd engineering team.
He already knew their identities before he even approached them, but his initial response failed because they came in so quickly.
In the end, the order was given only after dozens of people were injured, and the decision he made was to get off the beach.
The problem is that even the person who issued this order was skeptical of the judgment.
Originally, in an unfamiliar place, you have to move slowly, seeing, hearing, and feeling as much as possible.
Because you never know what dangers may lurk.
Given the circumstances at the time, he had no other choice.
It was because there were wounded and there were no people who could fight properly except for him and a few people.
Somehow clearing the road, they came to a research institute with an independent tower.
And only then did I know where this place was.
Sakhalin.
area of zero ground.
They were farther north than originally thought.
Recognizing the seriousness, Park Seong-min tried to communicate with the guild right away, taking a moment of spare time.
Fortunately, the communication was successful, and the situation was quickly informed.
However, a few short words of conversation were over, and then the monsters attacked again.
A strange thing happened right then.
Park Seong-min, who was struggling, suddenly disappeared from the battlefield.
It made everyone panic.
The camp collapsed in an instant and the hunters scattered and ran away.
They, too, disappeared shortly after, as if they were sunk to the ground.
And when I came to my senses, it was here.
Even that, only eleven people are all.
“They might be looking for us. Maybe we should move a little bit?”
“It is dangerous to move hastily. Guys out there, can we catch one? Moreover, the space is also narrow, so if we run into each other, that day is the end for us.”
“that… But as long as it stays like this, nothing… … .”
“I know. Let’s think a little more and move on.”
As they were thinking meaningless thoughts, a faint voice came from somewhere.
Then everyone held their breath and listened as if they had promised.
‘… No.’
A few spoke at the same time.
“Person?”
“Right? It’s a human voice, right?”
“Did you see them nearby?”
What they heard was a human voice.
It got louder and louder as time went on.
“anybody there! Captain Park Seong-min! Is there anyone!”
chuck.
The man at the forefront stood up.
“I know that voice. I am the communications unit commander.”
“Then we should go.”
“Everyone turn on your lights.”
Light sprang up here and there, illuminating the space.
Then, dozens of people appeared, all wet, like mice that had been hit by water.
“Four in the rear, four in the lead, and the rest, please take care of yourself.”
Nodding their heads, they stood at their positions in perfect order.
Afterwards, they looked at each other once, nodded silently, and started moving in the direction of the sound.
* * *
‘Where the hell is everyone?’
Taejeong, who was looking around the research center, wondered if there were people in this place.
It felt like I was alone in another world.
Now he was even thinking that what he was seeing was the real thing and that he might be a fake.
“It’s like I’ve become a ghost.”
Taejeong was a complete stranger here.
No one recognizes him, no one hears him.
There was also no physical contact.
I’ve tried all sorts of things to come this far, but everything passes as if I’ve become a ghost.
But again, the building wasn’t like that.
The vivid touch of the wall, the cold air, and even the unique smell.
Each and every one was tangible.
So it was even more confusing.
“No matter how you look at it. I don’t think our guild members are there. Besides, the entrance… … .”
While touring this place, Tae-jeong was able to learn one more thing.
It was that there was no entrance to the building.
I was guided to the entrance through Gerard, who could see the reality of this place, but there was no door there.
“This is not a problem with people, my nose is sleeping right now. Aren’t you going to die without being able to go out and running round and round for the rest of your life?”
Annoyance began to creep up on this mysterious phenomenon.
Rescue, quests, and even your own comfort.
nothing was going right.
But you can’t just complain because there’s no answer.
Tae-jung, who was speeding up the search just before planting, was already on the third floor.
There he could hear the welcome voice again.
“Have you seen Director Lee Soo-young?”
“Probably in his room.”
“A lodging?”
“I guess so. But why?”
“There was a flight delay in the US because of the typhoon. Because of that, the luncheon would be delayed an hour. I would like to inform you of the changes.”
“You can just call.”
“You don’t get it.”
“Then take a look. will be in the room By the way, Japan is not participating this time.”
“Because I don’t have a good relationship with Russia. There was a lot of backlash from the time I said I was doing it here.”
“what the. If that’s the case, why do we cooperate because we like Japan? In this global era, we have no choice but to go together. Anyway, a useless fight. Then you become an international bully.”
“I don’t know the details. It’s just the atmosphere.”
“Anyway, go.”
“yes. See you later.”
The man left first, and the woman soon began to leave as well.
‘As expected, light exists even in darkness.’
The conversation was like a ray of light to Tae-jung, who was looking for Lee Soo-young’s place.
A situation that may or may not be able to be resolved.
He immediately followed the woman.
That’s how he arrived at the basement floor that he hadn’t discovered yet.
Going down quite deep into a hallway, he could see flags hanging in each room.
Among them, a woman standing in front of the room with the Korean flag hung rang the bell.
Ding-dong. Ding-dong.
After a while, the door opened and a woman drying her wet hair peeked out.
“uh? What are you doing?”
“I heard that the luncheon was delayed by an hour due to a flight delay by the US representative. I came down because you didn’t answer the phone.”
“ah. i was washing one hour?”
“yes. Here’s the program schedule again.”
“Well. I get it right away Has our entire delegation arrived?”
“yes. You just arrived. I was saying hello to the organizers.”
“okay. Good job. See you later.”
“yes.”
The moment the woman leaves and the door is about to close.
Taejeong pushed herself in and abruptly went inside.
clap.
‘OK. Once I entered.’
The room was neither too big nor too small.
I wonder if it’s about the same as the one room I used as my own room in the old Potter days.
However, the composition was luxurious enough to be incomparable, and it was a room that was not enough for a representative of a country to stay.
‘Let’s see… … .’
Tae-jung immediately started looking for what he thought were project files.
I’m going through the desk like that.
“Like the first time. you hoo. i was waiting for you This night that reminds me of that day… … .”
The woman began to step, humming an unknown song.
Seeing that, Taejeong smiled and thought.
‘Everyone’s life is the same.’
I was ignoring it and going to look at the desk again, but suddenly the woman threw the towel off my body.
It happened so quickly that she took an embarrassing pose in front of the dumbfounded Taejeong.
“What do you think? I’m not dead yet, right?”
“Ugh.”
Her naked body exposed.
His heart, which was attacked in a defenseless state, began to beat.
