Episode 229
“you are… .”
The person who appeared in front of Lee Jeong-su was Min Ji-hong.
“Uh, how can I… .”
The shadow that supported him has died, and he is being chased by the Players Association.
Lee Jeong-soo is no longer surprised by most things.
He was visibly embarrassed.
Min Ji-hong, who was first known in the underworld by the nickname Black Hole.
I knew he was strong.
The partner chosen by the emerging shadow.
He is a man who is more than that, not less.
But this was his secret villa.
Just outside the door are hundreds of top-level awakened people, bodyguards who spent an astronomical amount of money to form them, stationed there.
But how can you be so quiet?
‘Are they trespassing here?’
Contrary to the confusion Lee Jeong-soo felt, Min Ji-hong smiled.
Lee Jeong-soo looked like he knew what he wanted to say.
“That doesn’t matter.”
dump.
Min Ji-hong sat in Lee Jeong-su’s chair.
This is an action to make sure who is on top.
“… … .”
Lee Jeong-su, who was quietly watching the scene, belatedly opened his mouth.
“That’s shameless.”
“Shameless?”
Min Ji-hong asked back.
The face that asked that question was full of laughter.
That sight made Lee Jeong-su even more angry.
“The shadow is dead.”
“I know.”
Min Ji-hong, contrary to his reputation, answered politely.
This is because Lee Jeong-su is still a useful hand to him.
“I will be next after the shadow.”
“Why do you think that?”
“Do you not think I know that you demons have a habit of cutting off their tails?”
As Lee Jeong-su said those words, magical power stirred in his body.
Even though I knew I shouldn’t show my teeth in front of Min Ji-hong.
I am angry at the man in front of me who brought the situation to this point.
Min Ji-hong, who was watching the scene, was still smiling.
“This is so… “I unintentionally caused concern to the vice president.”
“I’m saying that now… .”
This is when Lee Jeong-soo is about to yell.
Min Ji-hong raised his hand and stood up.
“shadow. “I would like to sincerely apologize to that friend as well.”
Min Ji-hong quietly bowed his head.
“… … .”
Lee Jeong-su kept his mouth shut as Min Ji-hong lowered his head.
Despite his angry expression, he was quite surprised on the inside.
Even Shadow, who was evaluated as one level below, did not show this attitude.
It was because I never thought that a man of Min Ji-hong would show such a low attitude.
Jeongsoo Lee felt hope in that action.
“Right now, damn Ji Jin-hee is leading his men and tightening his grip. “That’s not the only reason you came here, is it?”
“of course. “I prepared three gifts out of concern for the Vice President.”
“gift?”
The corners of Min Ji-hong’s mouth rose at the question.
“Chairman of Taesan Group. “Your father passed away a little while ago.”
“… … !!”
Lee Jeong-su’s face, which had entered a calm state, twitched.
This is the biological father who has been on life support for 10 years.
Even though he was the biological father, there was no such thing as infidelity.
He is simply dissatisfied with the fact that his father, who has persistently continued his reign despite overcoming complicated sibling rivalry, holds the greatest authority over the Taesan Group.
‘New Korea’s medical technology is the best in the world.’
But the life of a nobleman who had been fine for 10 years.
‘suddenly… Was it cut off?
This time, Jihong Min answered the question.
“There is no such thing as ‘suddenly’ in this world.”
As she said that, Min Ji-hong squeezed and opened her hand.
Creepy.

Goosebumps appeared on Lee Jeong-su’s body.
The meaning of what he says.
This is because he understood the warning that his life could be taken at any time.
“Congratulations. “You’ve become the chairman of Taesan Group, something you’ve always wanted?”
‘this… The crazy guy… .’
Min Ji-hong laughs and celebrates even though she killed her biological father.
Lee Jeong-su saw the distortion of the world in his eyes.
However, it is impossible to reveal this here.
“… Thank you. The second gift is… “What is it?”
Lee Jeong-soo, who was quite shocked by the first gift, asked cautiously.
“We will connect Taishan Group and the Chinese government.”
The answer was a bit more dejected than tense.
This is because Taesan Group is already carrying out significant business in China.
Above all, it was a gift that was not very helpful in the current situation.
“under… It’s already in progress… .”
This time, Min Ji-hong interrupted.
“I’m saying I’ll lead you through a comment line. “As the government’s number one partner company.”
“… … !!”
Lee Jeong-su’s eyes brightened.
No matter how successful the Taesan Group is in New Korea, there are limits to its growth in places where the government has great power, such as China.
But what does the president of such a place care about, and that they will make it their number one partner?
‘also… Is it true that the Chinese government is behind it!’
There are rumors going around about this shadow incident.
There was some awareness that the Chinese government was looking after the Ma people.
That’s why he also joined the hands of the demons.
But this level of influence was unexpected.
If everything goes as Jihong Min says, Taesan Group will be able to grow more than ten times its current size.
‘If only that happens.’
It can have an impact beyond Asia and around the world.
There is no longer a need to be swayed by pressure from the new Korean government or the players’ association.
But all of that was a future that could only be dreamed of if we escaped the Association’s pursuit right now.
Anti-warp skills are now operating in the area.
There seemed to be no way out of this place.
There is no way a person of Min Ji-hong’s size would not know that.
Let Jeongsu Lee’s thoughts reach that point.
“no way… ?”
“That is unlikely.”
Min Ji-hong smiled brightly and continued.
“Third gift. I brought someone to help me get out of here safely. “Please come in.”
Sigh.
The door opened and an elderly man came in.
“Cluck. “The story was longer than I thought?”
“Huh… !!”
Lee Jeong-su looked at the man’s face and made a sound without realizing it.
That’s right too.
The man who appeared was the infamous Mine.
Because it was Kassim Zort.
“What the hell is this… .”
“Didn’t I tell you? “It’s the third gift.”
It was then.
It sounded like something exploded and the temperature rose.
Lee Jeong-su intuitively realized that his son Lee Jeong-jae had used the skill.
The sound of the explosion continued for about 5 minutes.
After a while.
A man was dragged by the demons.
It was his son Lee Jeong-jae.
Like Lee Jeong-soo, his son, who gained the power of an S-class advanced player, was caught as a rag.
“What are you doing… .”
“Shouldn’t there be no trace of you here? “I brought you a special visit to your cute son.”
That meant only one thing.
All your bodyguards are dead.
You only spared Lee Jeong-jae because he is your son.
There were no options left for Lee Jeong-su.
“go… Oh my… .”
“Cluck. This kid seems to have quite the talent for fun. “If you raise it as a demon, it will be very useful.”
Kassim Jort chuckled as he turned to look at Lee Jeong-jae’s wide-eyed face.
at the same time.
Phew.
The man whose hand Min Ji-hong held was next to Lee Jeong-soo.
He stabbed the head of security in the heart.
“Ugh… .”
dump.
In a single blow, the man who was an S-class awakener died.
“Let’s begin.”
Min Ji-hong said indifferently, shaking off the blood.
“Puhuhuh. “There’s nothing to urge you to do.”
Kasim Jort has unleashed his magical power.
Purple magic overflowed and spread throughout the area.
“My body is still not perfect. Please understand the slight venom.”
Kassim Zort, who said so, used the skill.
Tiring.
[Skill Devil Gate (SS) has been activated.]
Puhwaaaak.
The moment when you feel like the room is full of fraud.
Damn. Damn it.
Cracks appeared as if the otherwise clean space had been torn apart.
Quadddddd.
Blah blah blah.
The crack quickly took the shape of a gate.
“This… .”
Jeongsoo Lee opened his mouth and looked at the gate in front of him.
It’s not like a small or medium-sized gate.
“large… gate?”
The magical power felt at the gate was unusual.
As Lee Jeong-su thought, ‘Devil Gate’ was not a warp skill.
Cooung.
The first to come out of the gate was an S-class monster.
“Kill all nearby humans.”
Cassim Zort gave a command to the monster with his red eyes shining.
Lee Jeong-soo could only watch with his mouth open as the absurd situation unfolded before his eyes.
* * *
[President of the Association. Deployment has been completed.]
Go Tae-wook’s voice was heard through Ji Jin-hee’s earrings.
He is giving orders from the operation command room instead of Ji Jin-hee, who was dispatched to the field.
At the scene, Ji Jin-hee, Park Seong-jin, Kwon Kang-hyuk, and Kwak Si-yang led their respective units and surrounded them from four directions.
“What’s the trend inside?”
[I caught a suspicious magical reaction a little while ago… The cause is not known.]
“Umm… .”
Ji Jin-hee let out a small sigh.
Not being able to identify the cause means that it could be a variable.
‘But.’
You can’t miss out on all the fish you caught just because of that one variable.
“We will carry out the operation like this.”
Ji Jin-hee clearly showed her will.
It was confirmed through Taehyun that Lee Jeong-soo does not have a vaccine for gray disease.
However, it was dangerous to leave him alone like this since he was involved with Mine.
It was necessary to deal with it reliably for the sake of the morale of the association’s players.
[All right. Now give orders to other guild leaders… .]
Even before Go Tae-wook finished speaking.
Kwaaaang!!
A huge explosion occurred in the distance.
This was the spot where Lee Jeong-su was expected to be.
A chain reaction of magical power was taking place there.
Go Tae-wook relayed the general situation.
A moment after the explosion stopped.
“This… .”
Ji Jin-hee flinched at the sense of fraud.
The magical power that could only be felt when a gate break occurred was flowing from the target point.
“Manager Go?”
[Association Chairman… This is an S-class gate break… .]
‘Suddenly a gate break at this timing.’
If it’s also S-rank, it’s definitely not a coincidence.
It was an instinct that made Ji Jin-hee think of Tae-hyeon.
“What happened to Taehyun?”
[I am contacting you now… I can’t contact you. It seems like we went into a place where there was some kind of jammer.]
“Huh… .”
The Taehyun that Ji Jin-hee knows is never the type of person to leave without any reason.
‘But we can’t just step down and take no action.’
Anyway, it is true that a gate break occurred within New Korea.
“We will take care of the brakes and continue the operation.”
[It’s dangerous. To handle the gate break without knowing what kind of trap Lee Jeong-soo has prepared… .]
“Even if Taehyun is not there, the best forces in New Korea are gathered together. “If you leave like this, it will only look funny.”
It wasn’t wrong.
At that time, Kwon Kang-hyuk, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, intervened.
[Oh, what are you doing now? I have to deal with it quickly and go catch Lee Jeong-soo.]
[This side is also ready.]
Seongjin Park agreed.
[First, deal with the monsters that escaped and then close the barrier… .]
Even before Kwak Si-yang finished speaking.
Once again a huge explosion occurred.
“That… .”
A monster that can be seen even where Ji Jin-hee is.
A being with magical power that has never been encountered before has revealed itself.
It was an SS-rank monster.
[What the f*ck?]
Kwon Kang-hyuk cursed without realizing it.
