Episode 382 Spring of the Sun (2)
‘This is amazing.’
Jinhyuk’s eyes narrowed when he saw the other person.
There’s no way you wouldn’t know.
How could you not know?
A mask with a geometric pattern.
Slender yet sturdy appearance.
Above all, the magical power flowing from the body is unusual.
Player Unknown.
To be exact, it is a fake pretending to be unknown.
Jerk.
Unknown stood next to Snyder.
“Recently, the appearance of the unknown player has been rare. I naturally thought that he would be with Jinhyeok Kang, but I heard that he said he would act separately for some reason.”
Rumors of a discord between Jinhyeok and Unknown were already being mentioned frequently in various communications.
It seemed as if the two players, who had often built a united front, were becoming estranged, but as they consistently failed to respond to numerous requests for interviews, the spark was bound to flare up.
In particular, the biggest reason was that Unknown was not included in the official members of Goinmul Corporation.
‘I’m planning to take advantage of that and pretend to be unknown and try to get some honey… … .’
How should I accept this?
Jinhyuk smiled bitterly.
If you’re an opportunist like a snake, you’re an opportunist. If he is stupid, he is infinitely stupid.
‘Even if no one else knows, I at least know that there is a high possibility of identifying the truth of Unknown.’
Still, is he still convinced that Unknown is hiding his identity until the end?
Or does this mean that it doesn’t matter if I know that he is faking it?
Either way, it’s true that it’s interesting.
“……So, why did you bring that person here?”
“As you know, Unknown Player is a ranker with numerous achievements. Even the Awakened Association has given permission to attack the tower as an exception.”
Snyder showed off a lot.
As if to say that he has complete control over the Unknown.
“No matter how much player Kang Jin-hyuk is, you don’t think it’s easy to conquer the upper levels, right? Especially when you have to walk down a path you’ve never been on before for the first time.”
There was still no specific information about the upper echelon.
If you dare to guess, there will be a lot of stairs that are several times more difficult than the middle floor.
Well said, Sosujeongye. This means that it is impossible to predict what variables there will be.
“However, if you cooperate with us, we will support a more comfortable way.”
Higher than now.
More stable and faster.
This means that we will provide support in both economic and practical terms.
“It’s definitely… not bad.”
“Does this mean you will accept our offer?”
“First, I’d like to have a word with Mr. Unknown. We’ll talk later.”
“……I understand. Please don’t drag it on too long.”
Snyder glanced around again.
Then he stepped back for a moment and made room for the two of them.
ruler.
How do you plan to come out now?
Jinhyuk looked directly at the other person.
Unknown also did not avoid Jinhyuk’s gaze.
Whoa.
A sigh of annoyance flowed out.
“I’ll tell you in advance that I’m not particularly into mindless psychological warfare or head-to-head fighting. I have no intention of pretending to be an unknown person. The only reason I put on this mask was to get your attention.”
I said it myself.
Was it the latter?
“…You surprisingly coolly admit it. I thought you would come up with more excuses.”
“I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like wasting time. I’m not someone you can deceive just because you decide to do so.”
“Then, we all know each other. Why don’t we take off our masks and start talking?”
“I’m sorry, but that won’t work. There’s no reason to show your bare face just because you’re not Unknown.”
“I’m sorry, but I didn’t ask for it either.”
Jinhyuk’s fingers moved.
Pachitsu… … Tsu!
As magical power gathered, ‘Barrier’ and ‘Glacier Sculpture’ were activated at the same time.
[6-star ‘Enclosed Area’ is activated!]
[Glacier modeling (冰河造形) ‘Polar Ice Arrow’ is activated!]
The ice powder took shape in an instant.
Three arrows seemed to flash, and they rushed towards Unknown’s mask.
At close range. It is also a surprise attack that specializes in speed.
however.
Puff puff!
The ice arrows all turned into powder and scattered nearby.
“He’s just as picky as I’ve heard, launching attacks at random.”

Let alone a blocking motion, I couldn’t even detect any signs of magic power being rearranged.
The barrier also disappeared without a trace.
What is this monster… … ?
“you…….”
Jinhyuk tried to say something, but Unknown was one step faster.
“It’s a pain in many ways because the gods who were dormant are running amok. Olympus and Ragnarok are also problems, but what’s annoying is that they became the ignition. Tsk! Anyway, they’re like idiots who live for their own selfish tastes…”
An ordinary player cannot speak carelessly about gods.
There were very few people I met. Even that would be tied to a complete superior-subordinate relationship.
resident… … Are you saying that?
No, there is no one among the residents who doesn’t know.
A being with such strange magical power… … .
‘… … .’
Neither is the manager.
It wasn’t even a deity.
There is only one possibility that can be inferred.
“Operator…….”
“Oh, I heard you’re not completely oblivious. I don’t think you need to be frustrated.”
A strange mouth appeared on Unknown’s mask.
You can see the creepy red mouth and the teeth sticking out between it.
“Saeyoung Eon-hwan only revealed himself when his true identity was discovered, so you’re saying you’re different?”
“That friend is a ‘contemplative person.’ He prefers to observe the trend without interfering with it.”
“I’m a ‘variant maker’. Hmm. How should I explain it? Ah, yes. I guess I should just say that I prefer to spice things up a bit.”
One of the viewers who watched the broadcast in the early days.
The operator was one of the factors that was not present in the Tower of Trials in the past.
In fact, it was Saeyoung Eon-hwan who warned about changes on the 50th floor.
then… … .
Who is the guy in front of you?
“Why don’t you tell me the nickname? Still, it’s a BJ I once enjoyed, so it’s okay to know the name of a favorite listener, right?”
“This was rude of me. It wasn’t polite as a fan. That’s for sure. A nickname doesn’t matter.”
The corner of Unknown’s mouth gently turned up.
“If I say ‘Eagle Owl,’ will you remember it? I’m confident that I watched the broadcast without fail.”
Of course, it remains in my memory.
In the past, viewers supported all kinds of food on broadcast.
I remember putting on black a few times because I was trying so hard to feed him a monster.
shit. I never thought I would meet that psycho in real life.
“No way, I wouldn’t ask you to eat Sundae Gukbap just because Sol’s eyes are on you. But I don’t think a person with a big butt like an operator is just trying to sell memories, right?”
“The reason I came here myself is because I want to join this raid.”
“…water from the spring of the sun?”
“Yes. There is a reason why we must go together.”
This is where things get complicated.
It was absurd that an operator appeared out of nowhere, and that he asked me to go to the labyrinth on the 23rd floor with him.
“What are you going to do?”
“What should I do, what should I do?”
I don’t know if this is poison or an apple or not.
But one thing is certain… … .
It’s just an opportunity to get some clues about the operator’s identity and purpose.
“As long as you don’t interfere, you’re welcome at any time.”
Jinhyuk accepted Unknown’s proposal.
Right then.
“I’m sorry. I’m late. I had to meet someone on the way, so I came with you… um?”
Cheon Yu-seong, who was approaching with a brief apology, tilted his head.
They found some strange guys next to Jinhyeok.
“Cheon Yoo-seong… Player… Could it be that you were the person that Kang Jin-hyeok was waiting for?”
Snyder’s face twisted.
However, Snyder’s misfortune does not end here.
It’s only just begun.
“Hoo. What on earth is this?”
The person Cheon Yu-seong met on his way was none other than Han Sang-jin.
He is the president of the Korean Awakened Association.
Just like the scar on the face, the ugly feelings about this situation were revealed without filtering.
I discovered that a foreign agent was targeting Jinhyeok, who could be considered a Korean treasure… … .
Of course, anger would soar.
On the other hand.
“ah…….”
Snyder’s whole body trembled slightly with an expression of loss in the world.
Of course… … !
In order to avoid encountering Korean government agents, they entered the country secretly and completely blocked information.
We invested an unimaginable amount of manpower and capital to avoid giving them any reason to be caught.
All that effort went in vain.
“This is interesting, Mr. Snyder. Do what you are doing now represent the will of the Titan Guild and the Awakened Society of America?”
“This is a misunderstanding. That’s not what we meant….”
“Isn’t that the intention? From the looks of it, they are trying to steal our VIPs?”
Snyder was unable to respond to Han Sang-jin’s harsh threats.
Although the United States was a country so strong that it could not even be compared to Korea.
If they were caught in this way, there was a risk that it would provide an unfavorable excuse for various reasons in future relationships.
There was someone who saved me from such a hopeless situation.
“Big! President of the Association. That’s not it. There was really a misunderstanding.”
It was Jinhyuk.
“A misunderstanding?”
“Yes. Mr. Snyder, who came here, said he would provide everything for free. He was very merciful for the future of humanity.”
“W-Free…?”
Snyder took a deep breath.
“Well, what do you mean by that?”
“Isn’t that right? Then, it wasn’t a misunderstanding, he really had bad feelings towards me… Well, I guess that’s what he means.”
Jinhyuk’s eyes sank coldly.
“I’m not saying that… What I meant by that is…”
“Yes, please speak slowly and without stuttering. I’m listening.”
“…….”
If you refute it here, all you can do is reveal evidence that they were trying to steal talent from other countries.
However, if the blood ties were maintained rigidly, a catastrophe could occur that would lead to an antagonistic relationship with Jinhyeok.
A situation of dilemma.
at last.
“…You got a good shot. Just take it all. I lost.”
Snyder lowered his head, giving up everything.
＊＊＊
Sangjin Han and Snyder said they had more to talk about and left.
Unknown, no, the eagle owl also left, saying he had something to do for a while.
There is now just over an hour left to get to the 23rd floor of the tower.
Jinhyeok and Cheon Yuseong inspected equipment and supplies one last time before entering the Tower of Trials.
Clap!
Cheon Yu-seong, who had a long sword on his waist that I had never seen before, quietly started crying.
“Is Mr. Ellis not with you?”
“That guy will fall out this time.”
Ellis, Belus and Ophelia.
The three ended their conversation by moving separately to contact Eden.
‘Kizakiel, who belongs to Eden, attacked my base, so I can use that as an excuse to take a big chunk out of it.’
Even if I try to make an excuse that Kizakiel was expelled from Eden, I can just say it’s none of my business.
Eden, who is desperate for clues about the Necronomicon, will have no choice but to do as they want, at least for the time being.
“It looks like Teresa is busy in Europe… and the teachers have also left to take care of business in the martial arts world… So, that means we have to conquer the labyrinth together with you.”
“Why? Are you anxious about the Sword Saint of the World?”
“I’m anxious! I just meant that I shouldn’t let down my guard.”
“But isn’t it you who only has one sword? In the past, in the martial arts world… you even defeated something like the Plum Blossom Swordsman of Hwasan, right?”
“That’s it… didn’t that happen when he came down from the tower under restrictions? And you knew it on purpose…”
Cheon Yu-seong’s face crumpled, perhaps because his pride was hurt.
“I’m sorry. I really didn’t know.”
No, you really didn’t know?
If you swing it outside, you can’t even erase the evidence. really.
Jinhyuk hurriedly waved both his hands.
“You two look happy together.”
The last member of this raid.
The eagle owl came in front of the two people, adjusting its mask.
