Salvation Church
The biggest characteristic of the demonic eye of truth is understanding.
By visualizing and recognizing energy, we understand the principles and laws hidden within it, not the external phenomena.
For understanding, the following is reproduced.
Through their ability to manipulate energy, they can recreate the phenomena they understand.
Because of these characteristics, the original Aris, who had no powers, was able to grow into a monster capable of destroying a country single-handedly in a few years.
Martial arts, magic, sorcery, supernatural powers.
How can you not become stronger when you can reproduce the abilities that others have gained through decades of hard work just by looking at them?
Yuseong also knew very well about the ability of this demonic eye of truth, and used it to steal the martial arts that Kang Chang-seok showed him.
However, it was the first and last time Yoosung stole his ability.
There were several reasons.
The abilities used by contractors are incomplete somewhere, so at most they are only D to E grades, or even if you steal abilities from a quest and return to Earth, you have to pay for karma, which is no different from buying and paying karma at a store. whatever, etc.
In short, the efficiency was not good.
It is much more efficient to honestly complete quests and earn karma to become stronger while stealing abilities.
In other words, it’s not that I couldn’t steal the ability, but I didn’t, and in other words, it was the same as meaning that I could steal the ability at any time if it was worth it.
‘The flow of inner energy is too complicated and fast than I expected. I wish I could show my full potential in this order even if I only use my inner strength… … .’
Yooseong, who clicked his tongue briefly, used the Sura Sensitivity to control the time of feeling and the speed of thinking, and strengthened the power of the Mystic Eye by concentrating his spiritual power.
In a slow-moving world like slow-motion, Yuseong focused his whole mind on observing Bruce’s energy flow.
He didn’t pay attention to Kang Ki-gong.
Obviously, they are performing various martial arts, but the flow of inner energy was so natural that it was impossible to tell which part was one martial art.
Instead, Yuseong focused his attention on the unchanging flow of inner energy while performing various strong qigong.
He decided to steal the simbeop, which can be said to be the root of martial arts.
Kwakwagwagwang!
The destructive power of the strong Qigong created by Bruce literally increased without knowing the end.
At first, it was about making a hole in the building, but it soon collapsed the building, and now it was annihilating the building without leaving a trace.
“Oh no!”
“… … Why?”
Bruce, who was even more excited, stopped moving at Kang Chang-seok’s sudden restraint and made a dissatisfied expression.
It seemed that the little flinching was going to start fighting again right away, but I had no choice but to retract my fist at Kang Chang-seok’s explanation.
“Why? Look around!”
The space near where the strong wind hit or exploded crackled like a broken TV and then came back again and again.

Just looking at it, I could tell it wasn’t normal.
“I only used Il Hal’s internal energy.”
“It’s a problem because I use strong qigong for that work. stop at this point If you rampage beyond this, the world of shadows will collapse.”
“Well, there are still many things I haven’t shown you yet… … .”
“This is enough.”
I wanted to rampage more, but it was difficult to be stubborn even when Yooseong said this.
Bruce exhaled slowly and calmed himself down, looking at the meteor.
“Did you get anything?”
“Yes.”
“it can not be helped… … . What did you say just now?”
“You said you got something?”
Bruce, who was expecting an unsatisfactory answer, was momentarily taken aback.
‘It’s not a simple martial art, but it was interrupted in the middle, so I couldn’t show it much, but I got something? Kang Qigong’s information? Or how to use strong qigong?’
I wanted to ask what he had gotten, but he had to be patient and keep his mouth shut.
Yoosung asked him to show his skills, and he showed his skills as requested.
End with it.
I had no reason to do anything more than this, and I had no desire to be involved.
“Then, this is the end. Kang Chang-seok?”
“You can’t do it here, go back to the association building. It’s strange when people in the conference room show up outside.”
“great.”
As before, Bruce took the lead, followed by Kang Chang-seok and Yoo-seong.
No matter how powerful a warrior was, even if he was one of the three strongest players, he had no talent for reading the expression of the person behind him.
That’s why Bruce couldn’t notice the bright smile on the face of Yoosung following behind him.
It was a fortunate thing for both Yoosung and Bruce.
[You have acquired the Infinite Ilwon Gong (無極一元功) (S).]
If I had noticed that smile, and furthermore, had I known the reason for the smile, a terrible tragedy that could not be described in words would have happened.

After the world changed, it was the religious world that suffered the most.
A monster that seems to come out of imagination appears and attacks humans, and people who have obtained mysterious abilities by contracting with unidentified transcendent beings stop the monster.
It was a story that did not appear anywhere in the scriptures that had been handed down for hundreds or thousands of years, and naturally, people’s faith had no choice but to collapse.
Of course, the religious world did not completely let go.
Christianity tried to explain the current situation by using the apocalypse, Buddhism the idea of the end of the law, Islam the idea of the end of the world, and other doctrines and scriptures such as Ragnarok, the work of heaven and earth, and the idea of the Gaebyeok. I was able to recover to some degree.
Yes.
To some extent.
This was because no matter how plausible the story was, it was difficult to have a stronger persuasive power than the monsters or contractors right in front of you.
Those who lost their faith were divided into two categories.
one is non-religious.
These were no big deal.
There are various types such as agnosticism, deism, and atheism, but this is because they did not cause harm to others.
The problem was that he had chosen a different path.
“Trust Dain! He has the power to heal the wounded and the sick!”
“You must not kill the monster! Monsters are the apostles of the Great One who came to purify the world. After the apostles take away the sinful ones and purify the world, a new world will open!”
“I will forgive your sins. Everyone trust me.”
Those who abandoned the old religion and created or accepted a new religion.
They caused social confusion by causing all kinds of incidents, such as clashing with existing religions or among themselves, or deceiving people with all kinds of flattery.
People urged us to come up with countermeasures, but we couldn’t find a suitable way.
Because they were really chosen by transcendent beings.
Those who claim to have been chosen by God to transcend humans have actually demonstrated superhuman abilities.
Those who claimed to be endowed with the power to manipulate the world’s rules were shown to manipulate the laws of physics, and those who claimed to have been given the power of healing were able to completely heal their wounds.
The beings who did what to call them pseudos, and what to call them non-pseudos.
The conclusion reached after a long discussion was monitoring and disposition.
If you cross the line while closely monitoring your every move, you will be immediately arrested and killed.
The reason for such an extreme countermeasure was simple.
“I bought it from behind. The government, the media, and civic groups all roasted and said that the authority to kill must be granted.”
Yuseong looked at Kang Chang-seok with a blank expression.
I was wondering what I wanted to say because I was suddenly giving a long speech, but I never imagined that I would make a confession of conscience out of the blue.
Yooseong, who was worried about how to react, decided to solve the first question that came to mind.
“Is there any reason to do that?”
“The initial confusion should have been rectified quickly. These issues need to be addressed early on. If we responded passively, it could become a problem not only for some contractors, but for all contractors.”
“Anyway, I think the kill went too far.”
“To put it bluntly, weed out. I went through a lot of hardships and made them into contractors, but they didn’t catch the monsters they were supposed to catch and caused chaos in society, so it’s better to get rid of them quickly and create other contractors.”
“You can do it in a gentle way. Since you created the contractors, it’s like stealing the power and giving it to someone else.”
“I am the arranger. They can arrange a contract, but whether or not the contract is established or destroyed is completely up to the parties. In order to create another Contractor, there is no other way than to kill the existing Contractor and get rid of it. The number of contractors I have killed directly or indirectly over the years is uncountable.”
Yoosung couldn’t say anything.
It wasn’t that I was shocked to learn of Kang Chang-seok’s unexpected side.
Because it was just crazy.
‘Then why are you telling me this? Are you saying you want to confess your sins and ease your conscience?’
Kang Chang-seok cleared his throat and said, as if he had noticed Yoosung’s thoughts.
“Well, to put it in a nutshell, I’m not killing people for no reason. I don’t want you to think of me as a lunatic killer or a psychopath.”
“Ahh.”
It was only after hearing those words that Yuseong could understand why Kang Chang-seok gave such a lengthy explanation.
‘It must have been because of this operation.’
The leader of a new religion, which has recently been explosively increasing in power, was behind the instigation of terrorism and chaos in society.
Kang Do-hyeon.
Originally a porter, but one day he became a contractor and founded a new religion.
The name of the religion is Salvationism.
Contrary to the common name, Kang Do-hyeon, the religious leader, has abilities that are different from those of ordinary contractors, and the story spread that he can artificially create superhumans comparable to those of contractors. has grown into
The problem was the members of the Salvation Church.
‘Fanatical fanatics who can even lay down their lives for the sake of their leader.’
Knowing that the Salvation Church was behind it, Kang Chang-seok initially sent an official letter requesting a conversation with the religious leader.
The identity of the other party was not certain, but he thought that he might be able to solve the situation through dialogue because he would have some intelligence to create and operate a religion.
However, the members of Salvation Church refused, saying that they could never send the leader outside, and even that was not enough, and they even staged a terrorist attack in Gwanghwamun Square.
Fortunately, the meteor was there, so if it hadn’t been for an accident, great confusion would have occurred.
On the day of the terrorist attack, Kang Chang-seok decided to wipe out the Salvation Church.
However, things got complicated when a meteor intervened.
‘Han Yuseong. This bastard, I’m sure he’ll say something.’
The number of members of the Salvation Church reaches four digits.
Even if it was absolutely necessary, it was almost obvious what a person who had seen him kill more than a thousand people, not dozens or hundreds, would think.
‘Other users will be able to understand because they have been active as users for several years to dozens of years and have had various experiences. However, Han Yuseong, who has just become a user, is different. If you’re not careful, you might get a strange misunderstanding about me.’
This was the reason Kang Chang-seok suddenly gave a long speech.
‘… … How the hell is this bastard looking at me?’
Of course, it was a completely useless worry.
this is not a game
