Episode 218
‘Portal’, a new skill acquired by applying ‘Energy Compose’ and ‘Energy Drain’.
That skill was a little different from other gate skills.
Taehyun also tried several times, but was unable to specify the coordinates.
Something that could be called minimum coordinates was needed.
For example, the summoning skill ‘Rosaria’ or something imbued with magical power that can be recognized by coordinates.
That is why Taehyun used the gate created by Rosaria rather than the ‘portal’.
But now, I was starting to regret that choice a little.
‘That Rosaria guy. ‘A useless prank.’
I obviously thought I was being sent to the deep safety zone.
The coordinates were Seoul, the capital of the new Korea.
Since such a gate was suddenly opened, it was natural for New Korea to recognize it as a gate break.
No matter how much I think about it, I can only think that Rosaria was playing a prank.
‘I’m sure it’s not because of Typhon.’
I started laughing without realizing it.
I unintentionally discovered that the relationship between Typhon and Rosaria was unusual.
Giant King Typhon.
If he could get this guy on the same side, it would be of great benefit to Taehyun.
“Player Kim Tae-hyun. There is no condition. “There was an order from the association president to bring us to the conference room as soon as the status check was completed.”
“Let’s go.”
Although he had already received sufficient treatment at Rosaria’s castle, it was a condition check he reluctantly received at Ji Jin-hee’s request.
Since Ji Jin-hee’s request was granted, it was necessary to move on to the next plan.
‘This time we have to be caught off guard.’
I have a rough plan for the future in my head.
The variable is whether or not New Korea has the will to do so.
While Taehyun was thinking about this and that, he arrived at the conference room.
“Player Taehyun Kim has arrived.”
“Hurry and take you there.”
Taehyun opened the door and went in at the sound of Ji Jin-hee’s voice coming from inside.
Key personnel were there.
Ji Jin-hee, Ko Tae-wook, Kwon Kang-hyuk, Kwak Si-yang, and Park Seong-jin.
Everyone was there except Yoo Ah-young, who was present when discussing the association’s major issues.
‘Guild leader Yoo Ah-young hasn’t regained consciousness yet.’
Taehyun sat down thinking that.
“Have Taehyun’s test results come out?”
“yes. “I am in perfect physical condition.”
An employee reported Taehyun’s condition.
“Whoa… “Thank goodness.”
“Didn’t I tell you that?”
Taehyun smiled and comforted Jinhee Ji.
“Hurry up and explain the story, little brother.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk grunted and urged.
At some point, he treated Taehyun as if he were his own brother.
No one stopped anyone.
They are also curious.
What on earth happened in the labyrinth, and what is the gate that Taehyun crossed through?
‘I guess I should cover it up appropriately.’
Thinking like that.
Taehyun opened his mouth.
* * *
“Kasim Jortra… “I was connected to a bigger deal than I thought.”
Ji Jin-hee muttered, referring to a being considered the worst in the world.
Because I never would have thought that Shadow and Min Ji-hong would have joined forces with them.
“You can even command SS-rank monsters… “There are no monsters.”
Kwak Si-yang acknowledged the gap and muttered.
An incident that was mistaken for a gate break.
Taehyun was just saying that the cause was the gate break.
In any case, it is true that Taehyun is the only one who has witnessed Kassim Zort’s skill in person, and it is also true that he possesses a gate skill that summons SS-rank monsters.
‘It’s not a lie.’
Is it because he didn’t think Taehyun was being around him appropriately?
Everyone seemed surprised by Kassim Jort’s power.
“Besides, there are hundreds of S-class mass-produced mines… “If this becomes known to society, there will be great confusion.”
Go Tae-wook said while checking the data of Named Mines.
Strengthening the Awakening led by the Chinese Players Association.
Naturally, I couldn’t help but think of the demonization experiment.
New Korea and China are already in sharp conflict over the origin of the infectious disease.
If the suspicion of cultivating mine was mentioned here, it was a situation that could escalate into a diplomatic issue.
“In the end, we couldn’t catch Min Ji-hong and Shadow either. If China is behind it, it is no longer something the association can handle. “There is no solid evidence.”

Kwak Si-yang, who calmly analyzed the situation, agreed with Go Tae-wook’s opinion.
Seongjin Park also nodded in sympathy.
“f*ck you. What’s wrong with the atmosphere here? “You said my little brother solved everything?”
Kwon Kang-hyuk changed the mood quite a bit and raised his voice.
I don’t like it.
The best forces in New Korea are gathered together to watch the minds of Mine and other countries.
It was the same for Taehyun.
“It is just as Guild Leader Kwon Kang-hyuk said. Nothing changes anyway. Whoever is behind Mine. Whoever that person is. All you need to do is destroy it.”
“Hmm… Taehyun is right. “We acted too much like children.”
With Ji Jin-hee agreeing, the matter in the labyrinth was concluded.
“What happened to the vaccine?”
“You have no shame. “I haven’t made it yet.”
It was expected.
A vaccine for gray disease would not be easy to create using modern scientific capabilities.
‘There is a high possibility that the United States will develop a vaccine… I guess we should hand over the information and cooperate as much as possible.’
Of course, this had to be done secretly through a personal connection with Association President Kevin Lee.
“It appears that it has spread considerably in China and Japan. The origin is obviously Guangzhou, where Venom was located, but… “Public opinion is not good.”
“What happened to Chairman Lee Jeong-soo?”
Taesan Group includes Taesan Pharmaceutical.
The reason Ayoung visited Lee Jeong-soo was also related to the shadow.
This was also because I received information that Taesan Pharmaceutical had manufactured a palliative.
“Chairman Lee Jeong-soo hid himself with medicine.”
“Of course tracking is impossible, right?”
If this guy was connected to the shadows, there would be no way for New Korea to do so.
Ji Jin-hee nodded and Ko Tae-wook added.
“Currently, public opinion about the association is not good. On the other hand, the approval rating for Vice Chairman Lee Jeong-soo is rising.”
Although Lee Jeong-soo will not directly become the president of the players association.
‘If I don’t take off the mask as soon as possible, it will be a bother.’
Taehyun is busy with Abyss work.
It was difficult to be caught up in something like this.
“If you want to catch a fish, you have to throw the right bait. “I have a great idea.”
Everyone’s eyes were on Taehyun.
* * *
Harsultan’s hideout located in Mexico City.
There Kassim Jort opened his eyes.
“Are you awake?”
“okay. “How long have I been lying down?”
“It’s two days.”
“Cluck. Two days… “It’s not a strange time since that happened.”
Kassim Jordt laughed while thinking of Kim Tae-hyun.
When I checked the status window, my overall stats had dropped by over 20.
Although he gained a life close to immortality, it was not without risks.
‘Even if he loses stamina, he’s not something the shadow guy can handle.’
The shadow of Samrodu.
Although he was definitely a great magician, he was nothing compared to Kim Tae-hyun.
No matter how much his ‘Devil Gate’ took away from Kim Tae-hyun’s physical strength.
The result of the shadow capturing Kim Tae-hyun was not depicted.
‘That’s amazing. ‘I can’t believe there are two anti-aircraft contractors from such a small country.’
He has always neglected the Earth due to his strange research.
Now there was one more thing for him to be interested in about Earth.
“Cluck cluck. If you sacrifice him, you might be able to summon the Archduke.”
It was when Kasim Zort was running the happiness circuit.
A subordinate came in and bowed his head.
“It’s a surprise attack.”
“Who are you?”
“This is Cody Cruz.”
“this. “It’s not a good time.”
Cody Cruz.
It’s been a while since the guy who was called the best player in the world followed in his footsteps.
If it were like usual, I would have made a big fuss.
‘Recovery is an urgent priority.’
After entering a new body, my stats and skills were unstable.
If it weren’t for him, Harsultan wouldn’t be able to stop Cody Cruz from the front.
“I am abandoning this place.”
“then?”
“We are moving to China.”
“The ‘gray disease’ is currently spreading in China… .”
“Don’t worry. “The power of God will protect us.”
The corners of Kassim Jort’s mouth turned up slyly.
A place where the influence of shadows dominates.
Also, to meet Taehyun Kim again.
There was a need to move it to Asia.
“God punish the heretics!!!”
Mine shouted and bowed his head.
* * *
Xu Jain, president of the China Players Association.
He swallowed hard.
The Players’ Association President’s Office is considered the safest in China.
It was from a man who broke in there.
Right in front of you.
China’s proud S-rank player, who was waiting for the association, was dead.
And with his head broken.
“I can’t understand you even if I say it in a nice way.”
The shadow said, baring its teeth.
“Sir, there was no need to kill him.”
Xu Zain asked, trying to hide his trembling voice.
“iced coffee. “I’ve been dealing with very strong guys lately, so I haven’t been able to control my strength.”
“Something… “Tell me.”
The head of China’s players’ association is having a hard time with Mine.
Although it is a situation that people in the world cannot even imagine.
It was a natural situation for Shadow.
This is because some kind of agreement has already been signed with the President of the Government Administration.
That is why the Demons were able to be mass-produced.
On the contrary, China’s demons were ruled by the shadows and looked after Chairman Zheng Qing.
This includes the later offering of new Korea and Japan.
“Has a vaccine for gray disease been developed?”
“Oh, not yet. “It is a very variable nature, so we need more time.”
“That’s good.”
The shadow smiled bitterly.
If a vaccine had already been developed, his plans would have been disrupted.
He was in a great mood after dealing with Kim Tae-hyun.
“It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed seeing incompetence.”
“… … .”
The shadow taunted Xu Zain and chuckled.
It was then.
The screen installed in the association president’s office rang.
The hidden shadow nodded.
Beep-
The screen turned on and an association employee appeared.
“President of the Association. Ji Jin-hee, president of the New Korea Players Association, came to visit.”
“… … !!”
Xu Jain’s expression was dumbfounded by the unexpected report.
The shadow was equally surprised.
“What happened without him contacting me…” ?”
“They say they have something to discuss about gray disease and shadows. If the media hears about it, it will be a bother… .”
“Wait a moment.”
Xu Zain hurriedly closed the screen when he heard the word “shadow.”
“You’re afraid.”
“Hey, look. I have nothing to do with what you do. You’re putting me in trouble with something like this… .”
“You idiot.”
“… … !!”
“Didn’t the big fish come back on its own?”
“B-but… .”
If you show up here, I’ll be in trouble.
Xu Zain wanted to say that, but couldn’t bring himself to say it out loud.
“Tsk tsk. Don’t worry. I’ll take you away quietly so you don’t raise any suspicion. “Are you sure you don’t trust my abilities?”
Griza asked, pointing to the dead S-rank player.
“… … .”
“What is the answer?”
“Do as you are told… “I will.”
“That’s right.”
After a while.
Ji Jin-hee, escorted by Go Tae-wook and Park Seong-jin, was guided to the VIP reception room.
