Episode 275
Radiant Universe (6)
Jeong Do boarded a private plane heading to South America as quickly as possible.
In fact, the procedures for moving a large-scale person, especially if it involves entering another country, are quite complicated.
In fact, it was strange that they did not pay attention to the sudden visit to their country by a Triple S class whose military strength could not even be measured. In the worst case scenario, it wouldn’t be strange at all if a city were destroyed because of that one person.
In normal times, Jeong-do would have followed the proper procedures to enter the country, but this was an emergency. I feel sorry for the country in question, but I have omitted the entire process using the maximum power I can.
‘It’s good to have a position like this.’
That’s what I thought while on a private plane flying at high speed towards South America. Well, if you think about it, he didn’t do much.
It was simply reported through a direct line to the top that ‘news from Hae-joon and Ellie McDowell has been cut off.’
But that was enough.
Two of the most famous SS-level users on Earth have disappeared. Also, users in Korea and the United States, which can be said to be the strongest user countries.
Naturally, the higher-ups were upset, and Seo Sang-hee came to get a private plane within a few minutes of asking them to leave it to us.
Exactly 30 minutes after I first heard the report that news from Hae-joon had been cut off.
The private plane cut through the air carrying Jeong Do, Seo Sang-hee, Kang Hae-sik, and a very minimal number of government officials dispatched to investigate.
“It looks like the U.S. has also dispatched an investigation team. I received word that they had also launched a plane. They said they would take care of the entry procedures.”
Fortunately, or fortunately, the country where the accident occurred this time was a country that relies heavily on the United States both economically and as a user. From what I heard, the entire process was blown away with a single phone call from the current President of the United States.
“after. That’s still a good thing. “If they had wasted time by doing something like this, I would have had no choice but to force myself to go in.”
“… … “I didn’t hear anything.”
“Oh, well, I’m sure you did a good job of not getting caught.”
“I can not hear that. I can not hear you.”
It was indeed a response worthy of Seo Sang-hee, a model civil servant who lives an upright life. As soon as the illegal story came out, I immediately covered my ears and turned my head and burst into laughter.
‘It shouldn’t be a big deal.’
Due to Hae-joon’s personality, there was a possibility that he may have overexerted himself due to his own request. Because he was careful to give back as much as he received. Thinking about it that way, he felt uneasy because he felt like he was involved in this disappearance.
Fortunately, unlike my heavy heart, the private plane was light. Private planes powered by Mana Stone were incomparably faster than those powered by old fossil fuels.
About 2 hours after the plane took off.
At least he was able to arrive at the exact location where Hae-joon’s news was cut off. Because the location coordinates left by Hae-joon were very accurate, wandering around looking for a location did not occur.
“Oh, Triple S! “Come here!”
“Oh my god, Mr. If it’s not rude, please shake my hand… … .”
“You idiot! Please understand the situation and say something like that!”
Investigators dispatched from the United States had already arrived at that point. When Jeong Do appeared, there was a brief disturbance, but it quickly calmed down as the incident was an incident.
A white man who seemed to be the leader among them approached Jeong Do and spoke politely.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. “My name is Jo Wen, and I am now in command of the U.S. task force team in this case.”
“nice to meet you. I’d like to say hello, but the situation is urgent. “Have you found out anything?”
“It’s a shame, but there are none. In our power, we were unable to find out at all what phenomenon occurred here. “There are no traces of the dungeon, and the mana detection device is intact.”
“Hmm.”
This is not a common phenomenon.
Clearly, Hae-jun had last reported that he was entering a place that appeared to be a dungeon, and dungeons exist in the form of cracks until they are cleared.
But not being able to find cracks in the dungeon… … Does that mean that space wasn’t a dungeon? Or is it really a special dungeon that hasn’t appeared before?
“Let me take a look.”
“Please, please.”
American agents increased their distance from Jeongdo. It probably means that you won’t interfere. Jeong Do expressed his gratitude with a nod and then closed his eyes. And expanded his senses to their fullest extent.
How many seconds have passed?
‘there is.’
An unnatural flow of mana was felt not far away. The degree opened her eyes and ran there. It was a tree less than 10 meters away from where the investigators were. Jeongdo arrived at the tree and bent his waist down as much as possible.
Support position.
“indeed.”
There was a reason why American investigators could not find it. Even though this was small, it was too small. It’s a size you can’t help but miss if you don’t focus your eyes. In addition, the mana itself flowing from the crack was very weak.
‘It’s crimson.’
It’s definitely different than before. Jeong-do hurriedly used the <Void> skill toward the crack.
Tiring.
<This dungeon blocks information detection skills! Invalidates the skill <Observation>.>
<The user’s skill <Void> is the highest level of compatibility with <Observation>. Ignore blocking. Information output is successful.>
<However, as a lot of time has passed since it was closed, all information cannot be printed.>
Damn, this is still happening even though I got there as fast as I could. Jeongdo clicked her tongue and looked at the notification window that popped up next.
<Passage leading to ???.>
<A portal artificially created by ???. I put a lot of effort into avoiding criticism from anyone. The mana within the dungeon has been remodeled so that it is not drained as much as possible.>
<Monsters that appear: None. Boss Monster: ???>
<Dungeon grade: Not measurable.>
<Dungeon type: Special type.>
<Person limit: 2 people.>
… … Well, there’s very little to know.
Jeongdo sighed and stood up. Still, a few things were saved.
First of all, what was certain was that it was a dungeon designed to prevent one’s intervention as much as possible. The same goes for shooting <Calling> and shooting <Observation>.
‘And he might not even know that I possess the <Void> skill.’
Well, it may not be an ordinary skill and I couldn’t block it even if I knew about it, but it was good as is. Because it meant that his abilities might not be as great as I thought.
There’s one more thing.
The number of people is limited to two. It may have been a coincidence, but in Jeong-do’s eyes, it seemed like a trap set up to target Hae-joon and Ellie from the beginning.

“Ixia.”
<Yes.>
“Is it possible to get the coordinates?”
<Uhm. My mana is low, but I’ll give it a try.>
Golden light began to flow from the Ixia on Jeongdo’s finger and surround the fine crack. Then, it trembled as if savoring the crack, and soon the golden light was recovered into the ring.
“how is it? “Can you do it?”
<Uhm. This… … .>
Jeongdo clicked his tongue inwardly at Ixia’s ambiguous answer. Is it still not possible? Well, she sniped at <Calling> and <Observation>, but she must have known about Ixia’s abilities in advance and made a plan… .
<Do you think you can do it? But the information is so sparse that it seems like it will take some time.>
“Uh, really? “Isn’t there some kind of interference device or something?”
<It was there, but hehe. If I get my hands on it, this will be a piece of cake. It wasn’t that difficult to extract the information.>
“… … “Are you surprised?”
<Master! You look down on me so much, but I’m now super Ixia. Super Ixia left only one part until the complete body!>
“Yeah, cool. Super Ixia. good job.”
Jeongdo was honestly impressed and praised Ixia. I see I felt like I knew roughly how things were going.
Since it was said that there was a sabotage operation against Ixia, it means that he was clearly aware of Ixia. However, since Ixia had been strengthened more than expected, it would have been natural to have been able to read the coordinates sufficiently.
That’s good news. The guy who designed this dungeon. He knew about himself, but he didn’t know him properly.
“Ixia, what is the estimated time for coordinate analysis?”
<It is 41 hours 27 minutes 05 seconds.>
It’s not short.
Jeong-do stood up and glared at the crack. The feeling of wanting to tear into it right away rose up like a chimney… … No, wait. You can tear it, right?
In the album, Princess Kako, who was a Japanese SS-level user, was loaded. She then used her unique skill <Dungeon Opening> and swung towards her crack.
Let’s go!
“Did you block this as well?”
Unfortunately, opening the dungeon could not open the cracks. I didn’t know if it was because it was too late or if the designer of this dungeon had even opened the dungeon in mind when creating it.
Jeongdo neatly threw away his regrets and stood up. The coordinates were available, so all I had to do now was wait.
“Did you find out something?”
The American team leader approached Jeong Do and asked cautiously. I was thinking about being honest about it, but shook my head. Not only was it cumbersome to explain, but even if I told them, there was nothing they could do.
“There is something suspicious about it, but I think we need to do a little more research. “I’ll go back and look into it, and I’ll leave the scene to you.”
“Oh, as expected, Triple S. I hope to see good results.”
“So are you returning to Korea? “Shall I call you a private plane?”
“no. “I can go back alone.”
After briefly saying hello to the team on site, he hurried home using Ixia’s warp.
<Master. Are you in a huge hurry? Interpretation takes time… … .>
“No, I thought of trying another test other than that.”
It just came to mind when I loaded Princess Kako from the album.
Given the circumstances, there was a very high possibility that that dungeon and karma were related.
… … Then wouldn’t it be okay to ask someone from Karma?
Of course, since the beings loaded in the album are from the ‘real universe’, there was a high possibility that Princess Kako of the ‘real universe’ would not know the truth. He was very uncooperative with me to begin with.
But what about Princess Kako, whose history has been altered?
“after.”
Jeong Do prepared the drawing in the basement workshop of his house. Princess Kako is Diamond grade. The <History Changes> draw only features entities that you have loaded at least once, so it won’t be that difficult to draw. Because he had a way to select a diamond with certainty.
There was no need to even go to the Diamond Ticket. As the normal grade was deleted due to the last <Despise the Evil Fortune>, there was a change in the 10th confirmed gold draw.
It made no sense to get guaranteed gold 10 times when the minimum amount of gold could be drawn. Naturally, the gold grade confirmed 10 times evolved into diamond grade.
“done!”
And as expected, we were able to pull out Princess Kako without difficulty.
But not everything went as expected.
<Calm down! dare! How dare me!>
“… … .”
She had not changed history yet. Damn you, Black Winry. Aren’t you working? The degree sighed and spoke to her.
“Calm down. “I called you because I had something to ask you.”
<You crazy bastard! Can you calm down? The guy who killed me is right in front of me… … !>
“hey. You have to speak straight. “It wasn’t me who killed you, it was Khaled.”
<That’s right! I will curse that damn bastard to death too! Ah, I was promised wealth and glory, but how could this happen… .>
“There is no need to kill. “Because I took it down.”
<… … What?>
“Literally. The guy who killed you. “I knocked it out.”
<… … .>
Kako’s attitude softened a little. Jeong Do thought that this was an opportunity and immediately took the plunge.
“Tell me what Karma is planning. “In detail to the best of your knowledge.”
<… … you. it’s crazy? Do you think I will help you just because you defeated him?>
“Let’s make a deal.”
<Ha, you sound funny. Dealing with someone who is already dead? I’m happiest when you’re unhappy… .>
“I’ll save you.”
<… … .>
Princess Kako fell silent at the unexpected surprise.
“If you help me, I will restore your body and bring you back to life. “I have that power.”
Yu Seon and even Cu Chulainn have already transcended into reality. He had no reason not to say there were three.
As far as I could tell, she was extremely snobbish. The type that has no sense of loyalty. She was a woman who would do anything for her own benefit.
<… Really?>
“Of course, if you want, I can swear to you.”
They will do it for you. Of course, it may not be in the form she wants.
The eyes shone faintly.
* * * * * *
The current location is not in Korea, but at Glastonbury Abbey in Somerset, southwest England.
The reason why Jeong Do is here is because of the selection. This was because there was a tomb of a very famous king here.
“Ixia. Are you sure that injecting dragon mana can shorten the time?”
<Yes. Sure. I am a being made from Ixia’s mana. By injecting powerful dragon mana, you can interpret the coordinates much earlier. However, it must be white grade or higher.>
“after. good.”
Jeong Do took out a spear from his inventory.
Rhongominoad.
It was a holy spear made of ash wood that, along with Excalibur, was a symbol of King Arthur. This was also a treasure found in Skurakto’s warehouse.
Yes, we were at least in front of King Arthur’s tomb at Glastonbury Abbey. Of all the people I knew, the only one who used dragon mana was King Arthur.
However, one problem is that King Arthur in the ‘real universe’ was rated black. In order to shorten Ixia’s time, the level is not enough.
… … As expected, this time we have no choice but to rely on the <History Change> draw. I could only hope that the reformed King Arthur would be white or older.
But this time, unlike the dwarves’ dungeon, I was confident. I thought that Black Winry would have done his best for someone as low as King Arthur, not like Princess Kako.
Tomb and Holy Spear.
It was even more strange that I had this much but it didn’t come out.
“Goes!”
Jeongdo executed the lottery without hesitation.
Faaah!
“good!”
The color of the falling business card was not black. And it wasn’t white… … What, it’s not even white?!
As if a dragon had descended.
An unusually shaped business card symbolizing god-level was shot towards Jeongdo’s forehead. A business card that looks like origami shaped like a dragon’s head.
The business card was gently absorbed into Jeong-do’s forehead, and the voice echoing in Jeong-do’s head.
<Ho. Is it you? I never thought we would meet again like this.>
He had a beautiful voice that could not be attributed to a man.
