Chapter 448
Episode 448: A Madman’s Choice
26th floor of [Daejeon Science Tower].
Household items trapped in an ice wall covered in white frost. From the 26th floor to the basement, the entire space was filled with ice.
Just looking at it is a sight that makes you shiver, but strangely enough, these ices do not emit cold air.
“Oh, it’s pretty cold when you get close.”
Jang Hyeon-deok fumbles with the wall of ice in a distracted manner. Because it is not a natural freeze, but a medium for magical sealing, the cold only converges inside.
The [Truth Eyes] in Jang Hyeon-deok’s eyes interpret the structure of ice. [Purification], [Confinement], [Preservation], [Freezing], [Containment]… … . Kim Shin-hwa’s magic power can be felt in the barrier. Ah, if you dispel the magic, the ice will disappear.
But what did the wizard create this thing to trap?
“Huh? Huh!?”
Jang Hyeon-deok’s astonishment upon discovering that he was imprisoned in a glacial prison.
Frozen and inactive – massive amounts of spores and hyphae. Corpses entangled by that strange alien life form. Test subjects of bizarre shapes.
Jang Hyeon-deok steps back in shock at the terrible sight. Excessively careless movement.
“Uhm~ It’s dangerous if you come any closer~”
Below I send a loose warning. Jang Hyeon-deok mumbles, “Oh, sorry,” and steps aside again.
Could it be that Kim Shin-hwa was anticipating this situation from the beginning?
Not all space is frozen in ice.
Mechanical devices and computers perfectly preserved in unfrozen areas. Witchcraft and the occult. And strange devices made with extraterrestrial science.
“Ha~ I love it so much.”
Lee Ha-seo sighs so excitedly that one wonders if she has a sweet scent. Thanks to this, Lee Ha-seo’s work is progressing at a tremendous speed.
“Hehehehe… … Ugh, uhhh… … .”
Lee Ha-seo, who sheds a sinister smile for a moment, binds a mechanical device of unknown purpose to the twelve handsome women who are tied up and sleeping next to him.
“These people… … . “Are you okay?”
Moon Seung-hee’s questions follow carefully.
“Umm, it’s okay. If you’re lucky, you might be healthier than before.”
That’s only if you’re lucky.
However, even if misfortune befalls them, there will be no successor to death.
The wish of Lee Ha-seo is [the eradication of the disease called death].
I’m not yet crazy enough to choose ‘pay human death as a cost to make my wish come true.’
“I also have a work ethic.”
“Uhm… … .”
If so, that’s a relief. However, Moon Seung-hee looks into Lee Ha-seo’s work with still doubts.
Lee Ha-seo is repeating practices that cannot be considered medical treatment. Playing house? Or strange performance art? Or just a violation of human rights?
“teacher? “How long do you think it will take this time?”
Go Kyung-soo asks Lee Ha-seo a question with a tired expression.
“Ah~? Awesome – it went very well. “Geumbaang~”
Lee Ha-seo looked at the fluorescent, sticky liquid at his fingertips and answered.
“Just a little more work and it will be done. 20 minutes? 30 minutes? “Maybe 10 minutes?”
Although a considerable amount of time has passed since the work began, it was initially predicted that it would take more than 12 hours. But 10 minutes? Isn’t it too short?
“Aha~ Because the ingredients are good.”
“Didn’t you mention work ethics a little while ago…” … ?”
Rumbling!!
A loud noise coming from upstairs. Go Kyung-soo, who was talking to Lee Ha-seo, hurriedly turns his attention to Park Gwang-rim.
“How are you, Gwangrim?”
“It’s ominous. Maybe something went wrong… … .”
Saying so, Park Gwang-rim lifts the pendulum. The target of tracking is Lee Seon-bin. To be precise, it was an attempt to detect the location of Kim Shin-hwa in Lee Sun-bin’s body.
Seonbin Lee, who was on the 39th floor, is now on the left end of the 35th floor. Did you come down? What’s going on?
Rumbling!!
Shocked again. Lee Seon-bin, whose position changes in an instant. Now the right end of the 32nd floor. At the same time, risk factors are detected. Goosebumps running up the back of Park Gwang-rim’s neck.
“There’s a problem.”
Lee Seon-bin’s location is clear, but the only way to get there is through the Four Gates. A clear image of death.
If you approach that area, you will die immediately. What on earth is Lee Sun-bin, or Kim Shin-hwa, fighting right now?
Kwazizig!
Now on the 29th floor.
close. A death gate that expands its territory without hesitation. A risk factor that spreads like a fire spreading in the southeast wind. It’s not safe here anymore. You have to run away.
“everyone… … !”
Kwaaaaaa!!
“Seonbin!!”
Moon Seung-hee’s scream.
Sunbin Lee falls through the ceiling, falls into the ice filled with the 26th floor, and bounces to the floor.
“Wow… … .”
A snake moaning through Lee Seon-bin’s mouth. A messed up body. Nevertheless, the left hand holds the [Sword of the Flesh] without letting go. The left leg of a human being held by the right hand.
What are you doing with my little brother’s body? – Moon Seung-hee was about to yell like that. However, the danger factor appeared before the words were even spoken.
“Everyone gathered here. “Is this a table for me?”
Moon Tae-ik easily climbs down from the newly opened hole in the ceiling.
“Huh!?”
Go Kyung-soo takes a deep breath in astonishment. What, is it okay to be that handsome? No, being handsome isn’t the problem.
“Ugh-”

Jang Hyeon-deok expresses nausea as he looks at the handsome face of Moon Tae-ik, who is difficult to find a match for.
“Mo, your body is full of brains and tentacles… … .”
Specifically, a body with 45 brains intertwined.
“Well, we have to run away.”
For Park Gwang-rim, it was just a terrible explosion and death. Moon Tae-ik appears as a monster with images of slaughter and predation intertwined. That’s a monster that eats humans. If we keep staying here, we’ll all die!
“I will not allow it. Instead, we offer you the opportunity to become the rock for a new era.”
After saying that, Moon Tae-ik looks at Lee Ha-seo, who is still concentrating on the experiment. To be exact, a spore bullet placed next to her.
“Cheet-”
A time so short that it can be said to be a moment. The snake judges what he should do and makes a choice.
[A human’s left leg] held in his right hand.
Magic stones pouring out from the cut surface instead of blood. The snake that overloaded some of it at high speeds-
“You have teleportation magic, right? With that, stick the magic stone bomb inside the magic stone. Then small bugs will occur.”
This is also a technique taught by Kim Shin-hwa.
Although it is not possible to move a human using Lee Seon-bin’s body, which has been lowered in rank, it is possible to move a small-sized magic stone.
“dare-”
Moon Tae-ik, who believed in his invincibility and was distracted for a moment, was unable to avoid the blow and was pushed back about 3 meters.
——!!
[Chain of Domination]
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A snake pulls the spore bullet that was next to Lee Ha-seo and pushes it into its own arms.
“Are you imitating Kim Shin-hwa?”
“okay. He learned a lot from that guy.”
After answering like that, the snake moved Seonbin Lee’s body and swung the [Sword of the Flesh].
[The unique function of the L-class weapon ‘Sword of the Flesh’, ‘the power to cut barriers’, is activated.
// Power to cut through barriers: Cuts through space.]
Suddenly! Ssyuk, evil-
A sword strike that exceeded the capabilities of Lee Seon-bin’s body. Huge cracks appeared in the walls, ceiling, and floor. A scar created not in material but in space itself.
Quad deud deuk!
Soon, about a third of the 26th floor floor fell off the building along with the walls.
“Uh oh!?” “Aaaah!” “No! Sunbin!!” “Falling again!?”
People’s screams. In the meantime, Lee Ha-seo is concentrating on the experiment. The snake waited until they were far enough away –
“I guess this is my leg after all. shit. my legs… … .”
But I’m not shameless enough to waste my own legs while I’m ruining other people’s bodies I’m borrowing from them.
A snake that casts magic by weaving together magic stones extracted from [Kim Shin-hwa’s left leg] held in its right hand.
Moon Tae-ik, who expected the snake to use an attack spell, flies up at once and kicks the snake.
Kwasik!
“Ugh!”
A snake that completes its magic without losing consciousness even while being thrown into a wall.
[feather falling]
[Spell Enhancement: Maximization]
[Spell Enhancement: Multiple Casting]
The completed spell is, oddly enough, a magic that slows down the speed of falling. The target is people who are falling.
Rapidly decreasing fall speed.
“hmm… … .”
Moon Tae-ik looks at the sight beyond the cut off exterior wall. I could go after them right away, but this [fake Kim Shin-hwa] is still annoying.
In addition, [Spore Bullets] also need to be recovered.
However, [Fake Kim Shin-hwa]’s behavior pattern is… … .
“There is no point in taking time.”
“Wow… … . Ugh.”
Strangely twisted legs and distorted ribs.
“Eonggeum-ah.”
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Eonggeum, who fixes the broken body by weaving it with thread.
Crash! Quickly. A skeleton that instantly returns to its original position. A magical thread that binds the damaged area together. Is it okay to use a borrowed body like this?
Damn, I really need to fix this body and return it to you… … .
“What are you waiting for?”
“… … Shinhwa Kim.”
“Kim Shin-hwa? You don’t understand. Kim Shin-hwa is dead.”
Taeik Moon says this and explains what he saw.
* * *
[…] … failure.]
Judgment failed.
under! That’s really funny.
“under! Judgment failed! Delirium! Haha! Hahahaha!”
Oh, I see. This is a natural result, as a snake has now been sent out on a business trip to help with this decision.
I’m going to go crazy soon. I may have already gone crazy, but before I go even more crazy, I need to do something even crazier than I already went crazy.
Perhaps this is [the flash of a madman], [the inspiration of a madman], [the choice of a madman].
Magic that activates. Horsepower that runs at high speed.
[Forced operation: human]
“President! Now I get it! The golden throne that danced with the singing National Assembly is a scattered opportunity that allows even truncated possibilities to survive. I know this is a really cool puppet show, but somehow the mushroom remembers everything. Do you know? Physical death is not important. “The will is saved and recorded forever.”
“Are you crazy? It doesn’t matter though. “Insanity is a spice that adds a unique flavor to the brain.”
The polite attitude of a patient gourmet.
Excellent. President.
If I were a normal Kim Shin-hwa and not crazy, I would never have made this choice. However, Kim Shin-hwa may make this choice for Kim Shin-hwa, not Kim Shin-hwa. Anyway, considering Kim Shin-hwa’s final victory as a team, the chairman must prevent the situation from sucking Kim Shin-hwa’s brain and becoming stronger, right?
I gave explosive force to the few magic stones that were pouring out of my thighs and then pushed them into my thighs like crazy. Since the situation is already crazy, the expression that can be applied to anything I do is [crazy]. Cool, right?
A physics engine error that occurs with a loud noise.
Soon, objects with greater mass will push away lighter, smaller objects.
Unfortunately, Moon Tae-ik is a much bigger object than Kim Shin-hwa. I’m probably the one who gets thrown out.
[System: Due to the effect of ‘Insanity – Photophobia’… … ]
Whether confusion occurs or not, the magic has already been activated. Kim Shin-hwa moves her body as instructed by the magic she activated in advance. Oh, I am Shinhwa Kim and Shinhwa Kim is me?
Left hand. Move and grab his hair.
“Self-sacrifice? no. Anyway, I am me, Kim Shin-hwa is Kim Shin-hwa, ice is water, water is mushrooms, and the fake sun grows mushrooms, right? You son of a bitch. Do you think I’m going to lose my brain to you? “I’d rather just throw it in the trash can!”
[…] … ‘Status abnormality – confusion’ occurs.]
right hand. Raise the [Sain Chamjeonggeom] – Okay, try moving it well. A little further in from there. huh. that’s right. There it is. Dangerous? No, I want that. Poke it hard.
Just right.
Pull.
Suddenly.
And the subsequent explosion.
Physics engine error.
* * *
“Do you understand? Kim Shin-hwa struggled to keep her brain from being taken away by me, and she died.”
Taeik Moon finished his explanation in a sad tone.
“It was quite an explosion. “The brain would have already become inedible.”
At that level, playback is impossible.
“Whoa… … .”
A snake sighs.
“He’s really crazy.”
This is not what I am saying to Moon Tae-ik, who is sad that he cannot eat Kim Shin-hwa’s brain.
Shinhwa Kim.
That bastard is really crazy!
It wasn’t an important factor to know who the real Kim Shin-hwa was. If we were to simply consider crazy, there would be no one more crazy than that kid.
“I understand roughly. Thank you. President.”
Thanks to you, I found out what Kim Shin-hwa’s plan was.
“hmm?”
Moon Tae-ik feels puzzled by the snake’s strange reaction. Why doesn’t he give up even after hearing such stories? They are truly stubborn and horrible people.
“And the Kim Shin-hwa I was waiting for is not the crazy bastard the chairman said.”
There’s another crazy guy here who thinks he’s Kim Shin-hwa.
