Return of the Frozen Player 531
Sword Demon (1)
Fire, fire.
An outdoor gymnasium in an ice castle.
Over 2,000 players were gathered in threes and fives around the huge campfire installed there.
“It is the flame that the princess of red lotus lit.
runga. It rides well for a long time… …
“I am rather surprised by this castle that was built by Mr. Dusk.
“Ah, indeed. Even if you light a fire this big, it won’t melt.”
“The woman who saw this built it.”
The raid on Gulat and the rescue of Ramadat.
A small festival was held to commemorate the successful completion of the two operations.
Although the alcohol and food were not plentiful, each one had a small smile on their lips.
At that time, Seo Jun-ho suddenly raised his head.
Among the thousands and tens of thousands of stars densely packed in the night sky.
One star that draws attention is quietly falling.
The star stole my gaze and did not return it easily.
In the end, Seo Jun-ho stared at the meteor in silence for a while until it disappeared leaving behind a long tail.
“Is this a star that the priest knows?”
Seo Jun-ho turned his head. He was Paik Kun-wu.
“What do you mean, a known star?”
“I couldn’t take my eyes off it for a while, so I thought it was a star I knew.”
“There can be no such thing.”
After laughing at the boring joke, Baek Kun-wu opened his mouth by handing him a can of beer.
“Master really liked looking at the stars, too.”
“You did.”
It is a longing memory.
Memories of lying on the floor after hard training and counting the twinkling stars.
“How are you feeling?”
“What is your body?”
swish
Seo Jun-ho, who spun around on his shoulders, replied bravely.
“As you can see, I am fine.”
Fatigue still remained, but the physical condition was rapidly recovering thanks to the effects of the main ophthalmology.
“however… …
Seo Jun-ho, who cautiously opened his mouth, looked at Baek Geon-wu.
When we met again, I was so distracted that I didn’t notice, but now I know for sure.
‘You’ve changed a lot.’
The most notable thing was the head.
Because her black hair had turned grayish white.
Rather than dyeing it to look cool, it felt like the color itself was weak.
“What happened to your hair?”
“Ah, this.”
He looked at his hair and smiled bitterly.
“well. At some point, the color faded like this.”
“… … could that happen? Where have you been and what have you been doing?”
“It would be a long story, so to speak.”
“Fortunately, the schedule is a bit empty today.”
At Seo Jun-ho’s joke, he chose his words carefully.
“… … then. Let’s start when I heard the sad news of Master.”
The story that started like that continued for quite a long time.
“I came up to the 7th floor to save you that way. I’m glad it’s not too late.”
After finishing the story, Paik Geon-wu looked refreshed, but Seo Jun-ho’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper.
he asked in a trembling voice.
“brother. Are you really okay?”
60 years.
It is said that he trained for as little as 60 years at level 4, ‘Seo Jun-ho and Ido’.
‘I just spent 17 years there… …
My emotions were worn out and my mind was sick.
Even though he has the ability called ‘Hero’s Mental Power (S)’.
‘But, as far as I know, the death penalty
There is no mental protection-type ability of that kind.
When Seo Jun-ho’s eyes trembled, Baek Geon-wu hurriedly opened his mouth.
“Ah, you don’t have to worry too much. Because of the care of the three counts, I somehow managed to keep my spirits up.”
“You say that now… …
60 years is a long time.
Even 60 years of being alone, immersed in training, must be a much more distant time than you think.
“Shouldn’t you take a break and get some mental treatment first?”

“Heavenly Demon. until i kill him
I have no intention of resting.”
An unprecedentedly firm voice.
There is no room for your own worries to enter.
Seo Jun-ho finally sighed lightly.
“I didn’t know, but you are secretly stubborn.”
“It’s nothing compared to the priest.”
Paik Geon-wu smiled and changed the topic.
“By the way, looking at the situation, it will take some time to attack the 7th floor.”
“no.”
While the two had a long conversation, the snowy moon had already declined.
Seo Jun-ho looked at the rising morning sun and opened his mouth.
“It won’t take that long.”
* *
“Junho, are you feeling better?”
“… … Ramadat. I don’t think you can hear it.”
Seo Jun-ho, who smiled as if it was absurd, turned his head
turned
“Oh, and thank you for the treatment. Mr. Sieun.”
“I just did what the therapist was supposed to do.”
In the room, the party members, Paik Kun-wu, and several Big 6 officials with whom he was acquainted were together.
Son Chae-won raised her hand slightly and asked.
“So, what is the purpose of this clandestine meeting?”
“I would like to discuss future plans.”
“Future Plans… …
Everyone nodded.
Because it was a subject that could not be postponed because it was vague.
“First of all, Skaya. How many players currently live in this castle?”
“2,548 people.”
“What is the level of the players?”
“It’s not bad right now.”
Seo Jun-ho threw his eyes at the boneless words.
“Right now? what do you mean?”
“Not all transcendental bodies are strong.”
That fact has already been verified in the Gulat raid operation.
Forgetting the battle and living peacefully in the city, the people of the Transcendental Body were weak enough to laugh.
But they are basically the Overmind.
The potential itself was on a different level from that of humans.
“Originally, I would have thought that soldiers and knights could organize us. But we have shaken that belief.”
Over 4,000 Overminds died.
From the Empire’s point of view, their pride must have suffered a major blow.
“If I were the emperor, I would demand a minimum military level even from the peacefully living residents.”
“… … So it’s not bad right now.”
If what she said was true, the number of enemies to deal with jumped from thousands to tens of thousands.
Moreover, the level of enemies will increase as time goes by.
But there was no reason to feel sorry for it.
“It wasn’t something that could have been avoided in the first place.”
To defeat the Emperor who is presumed to be the floor master of the 7th floor.
No matter when, I had to deal with the entire empire.
“The difference in weight class is much bigger than I thought.”
Shin Sung-hyun made a rare sound of pain.
“There is something we need to worry about.
Not just enemies.”
“… … Does that mean infiltrators?”
An infiltrator who is presumed to be doing direct business with the Heavenly Demon.
Unreliable allies are the biggest stumbling block, so we have to find them out someday.
Seo Jun-ho said.
“Skaya is looking into that as much as possible.”
“huh. So far, no one has said or acted particularly suspicious.”
The ice castle covered with various magics
on the palm of her hand.
If someone looks suspicious, she can’t help but notice.
“Well, if Mistress Skaya recognizes it, then there’s no need to worry.”
Son Chae-won nodded in agreement and continued.
“Then, can we focus on bringing the scattered players together for the time being?”
“Yes, but at the same time I would like to focus on attacking. As I said before, time is on the side of the enemy.”
Seo Jun-ho is the 7 person he met in his dream.
The manager of the floor shared a story about Helic.
“The sun god!? Isn’t that the god that the Ruben Empire enshrines as the state religion?”
“hmm. It sounds like the emperor is monitoring such a great existence.”
“In other words, if you help her destroy the facility, you will help us with the manager’s authority, right?”
“It was just such a deal.”
For a while, everyone was surprised that the manager on the 7th floor was a better person than I thought.
The group who pondered over the words she left behind
One by one they opened their mouths.
“I already destroyed the radio tower, but where are the other two places?”
“If you compare the places marked on the map with the memories of the enemies… …
Seo Jun-ho nodded.
“One is a float force power plant. The other place is the Kronos Lab.”
“Jun Ho. What is the force power plant doing?”
“It is a facility that confines failed works or transgressive transcendents and forcibly produces the force.”
It’s safe to say that the force produced there supports all of the empire’s infrastructure.
“… … If it were a facility like that, it wouldn’t be a matter of security, would the military be stationed there?”
“that’s right. And it’s not much different from the lab.”
Rather, it was worse in the research institute to be wrapped in a veil.
It was to the point that I couldn’t pull out any useful information from the memories of the Ascendants.
“… … Are we supposed to attack those terrifying places?”
Princess Ha swallowed and asked.
It’s a situation where there is a big difference between the enemy and the troops.
If you think realistically, the possibility of realization is infinitely close to zero.
“I have to. Unless they are destroyed, the invasion of the 7th floor itself is a long way off.”
Seo Joon-ho opened his mouth as he wiped the faces of those gathered in the room one after another.
“At this time, the enemy is preoccupied with the maintenance of Gulat and the capital. I intend to drive it like a storm.”
* * *
When the meeting was over, the party each left the room with serious expressions.
It would be to check the feasibility of the plan and think about what they should prepare for.
“It must be difficult. What is a dim life?”
“… … What does it mean?”
When Seo Jun-ho asked again, Son Chae-won shrugged.
“Just by experiencing a little
I think you know. The pressure to do these things all the time.”
“If it’s something like that, I think you, the chaste master of the moon, are quite tolerant.”
“To be honest, I don’t really… … If you developed resistance, it would be with that lost child rather than me.”
Mia, he probably meant Kim Woo-jung, who hadn’t returned since Operation Gulat.
“Is there still no news from him?”
“The community is dead, so spread the news.
I can’t hear you, what.”
Son Chae-won let out a light sigh, but her complexion was strangely bright.
“Well, I don’t worry too much. It’s not just once or twice that it suddenly disappeared and then appeared intact.”
“surely. If you have that skill, you won’t have a problem anywhere.”
“When I come back, I’ll have to hit him on the back. Now that I think about it, worrying about it is pissing me off.”
When she left the room with a smile, Seo Jun-ho slowly turned around.
“what? It’s something to say.”
“I think there is something you should know.”
Skye Kiriland.
She opened her mouth with a heavy expression that she doesn’t usually show.
“Did you say that last time? This is a parallel world, a completely separate dimension.”
“It was.”
This is the second floor, the parallel world of Frontier.
To be precise, unlike Frontier, where the ‘Glory Age’ collapsed, the world maintained the ‘Glory Age’.
“But you still don’t know?”
“what?”
“You can get in touch with the 5th floor by Vita. Even Deokgu sent troops. Aren’t you offended?”
Seo Jun-ho’s eyes widened.
I heard it and it is true.
If this is really a parallel world, it would mean that he made contact with a kite from another world.
“Wait, then what happened? It’s not possible that the kite’s remodeled Vita jumps to the next dimension.
Are you overdoing it?”
“It can’t be!”
Skye bit her lip.
“You remember I studied dimensional equations to close the Semei Gate’?”
“I learned it myself from Manager Gray.”
“According to the concept I learned then, this phenomenon makes no sense. It completely defies the laws of physics.”
she warned.
“Right now, only you know. should spread
There’s nothing good about it, and I haven’t had any problems so far.”
“But the reason you gave me this warning… …
“It means don’t forget.”
That their universe is no longer in a normal state.
