<Mushin Returns to Level 2 Episode 308>
Inside the root strand of the world tree that was dragged back to the station after using the Heavenly Armed God.
It was a dark space without any light coming in.
‘The chain of the Heavenly Beast God has disappeared… … ‘I can’t move my body.’
A situation where the energy in the body has disappeared and the body cannot move.
In this dark space, he could only see and hear.
at that time.
Flash!
A green light appeared in the distance.
It soon started spinning and became a huge whirlpool.
‘what?’
What is that thing? Let’s watch for a moment.
Suuuuu… … .
In the center of the whirlpool, a red light flashed.
It soon gathered into a circle and moved like a pupil.
and.
[Put it in.]
Inside that red dot, a language that Seong Ji-han had never heard before rang out.
It was a language I had never heard before, but strangely enough, I could understand the meaning.
When his words ended like that.
Tuk! Tuk!
From above, something started falling.
‘… … ‘You’re a human, right?’
About a hundred people fell from above.
They, young and old, of all genders and ages, were looking at their surroundings with trembling eyes.
“*##$!”
“#[email protected]$… … .”
Seong Ji-han could hear the words of Red Eyes, but could not understand a word of the words of the humans who fell here.
Some of the people were walking towards Seong Ji-han.
Sigh.
I passed right where he was.
‘hmm… … Here, it could be an illusion.’
People who do not recognize or encounter Seong Ji-han.
He decided to wait and see the situation for now.
And, not long after.
[I brought it too.]
Another green vortex appeared on the other side.
Tuk! Tuk!
Another hundred or so people fell inside.
And this process was repeated three more times.
About 500 people were trapped in this dark space.
“@[email protected]!#!”
“@#*… … .”
When 500 people gather together like that and get confused.
[500 gathered.]
[The experiment begins.]
In the whirlpool that filled the target, red eyes flashed all at once.
OK.
Pop. Pop… … .
Drops of red liquid fell from above, reaching where the people were.
Cheeeeeek… … !
The people who were hit by the water droplets had their bodies burning and then instantly turned to ashes and disappeared.
“^percent[email protected]$!!”
People ran in all directions to avoid touching the red liquid.
The water droplets that fell one by one soon fell like rain and reached all 500 people.
Then, people quickly disappear.
Only Seong Ji-han was able to observe this without any hesitation.
Flash.
[Is this the price of erasing limitations?]
[The price of removing limitations is terrible. How can you be so weak?]
‘You removed the limit?’
When Seong Ji-han heard those words, he thought of the Celestial Cube.
Items that increase the limits of the species did not work for humanity.
[Rather than abolishing the limit setting, why not just increase it? And it is to strengthen the basics of the species.]
[Then it has no meaning. The set limit will eventually be reached.]
[But isn’t the experiment a failure with such a weak species? I can’t stand even a single drop of the sap from the roots.]
[It is already too early to conclude that the experiment has failed. Let’s continue.]
Ssssssssssssssssshh… … .

The vortices disappeared.
The experiment was resumed again.
Hundreds of people pouring in.
How many times did it burn and disappear in the red liquid?
Grrrr… … !
People who were quickly reduced to ashes began to withstand the flames to some extent.
“Aaaahhh!”
Accordingly, the number of cases in which screams erupted from all directions increased.
‘For the experimenters, it would have been more convenient if they died in one hit.’
Compared to the time when a single drop of water touched the human race and caused it to burn in an instant, humanity’s suffering has only increased.
The experiment, which initially had 500 people, gradually grew in size.
[If you add more, you will be crushed to death.]
[If it dies like that, it’s a useless experiment anyway. Add more.]
[right. It’s a waste of sap.]
Later, from thousands to over 10,000 people poured in at once.
It was a dark space with no visible limits on the outside.
As people pour out in heaps, humanity becomes stuck at a certain point and cannot expand further.
They were piled together and crushed inside a huge barrel.
Before the experiment could proceed, people died one after another.
Then, red liquid falls from above.
Grumbling… … !
Ten thousand people are on fire.
The inside quickly turned into chaos.
Perhaps because it was not incinerated all at once like before, a terrible hell unfolded inside.
Seong Ji-han frowned.
‘… … To them, humanity is nothing more than a simple experiment.’
10,000 people were incinerated in that way.
Flash.
A voice came out from the eyes in the whirlpool that saw this.
[Even though I strengthened it as much as possible, it couldn’t even withstand sap… … .]
[The experiment was a failure.]
[It’s a shame. This race will be discarded.]
A vortex that declared ‘abolition’ to humanity, which could not withstand the red liquid.
One, then.
Wiggle… … .
In the red liquid slightly pooling on the floor, something moved.
Shoo!
In a space where 10,000 people had melted away, a small child suddenly appeared.
A child who is fine even though he is wrapped in the red liquid that melted humanity.
[One test subject survives.]
[Is it a mutation? Not only did it withstand the sap, but it also successfully absorbed it.]
[But it’s still terribly weak… … How about just starting over?]
[For now, let’s conduct some more experiments with this object. When this entity dies, the species is discarded.]
Is it because survivors emerged after numerous experiments?
The voice in the whirlpool was more lively than ever.
Of course, they were determined to destroy the human race once this entity died.
[You survived this time too.]
[It’s more useful than you think.]
[Let’s propagate the species around this being.]
[There may be limits to sowing seeds alone. I guess I should give them some authority to rule.]
The child continues to survive.
In fact, as he grew healthy, he began to carve patterns on his body.
Just looking at it, it was an extremely complicated pattern rather than a letter.
[Grant control code]
To Seong Ji-han, the meaning of the letters is clearly understood.
It was a similar feeling to seeing the extinction code.
but.
‘Unlike the extinction code, the energy of life is strongly felt in the elements that make up the letters.’
When Seong Ji-han was analyzing the letters and concentrating on them.
sparkle!
Intense light exploded from the pattern engraved on the grown child’s body.
And the world stops.
-I didn’t die.
A voice came to Seong Ji-han’s ears.
Suuuuu… … .
And then the grown child disappears.
Light began to come into the dark space.
With that, a sense of reality is felt.
Crash. Crash.
On Seong Ji-han’s arms and legs, there were chains extending from his own body.
Rather, it was squeezing him.
and.
Step by step. Step by step.
“Did you see it well? “It’s a child.”
A man walked towards him.
“… … Gilgamesh?”
* * *
A man with the same impression as the one seen in Pythia’s prophecy.
Seong Ji-han was able to quickly figure out who he was by looking at his appearance and the way he spoke.
“It’s exactly the illusion he left on the roots.”
“You do all kinds of things.”
“What a surprise, it was a deliberate act for the sake of humanity.”
Seong Ji-han looked closely at the being in front of him.
Gilgamesh is translucent and insubstantial.
I felt no energy from him.
It’s definitely a welcome.
‘But you never know what this guy might do, so you have to be prepared.’
Seong Ji-han glanced at his surroundings.
A cavity with brown wooden walls.
Seong Jihan’s chains were stuck in all directions here.
Is this a space inside the roots of the World Tree?
‘From the chain of the heavenly beast, the energy of life continues to flow in… … .’
The energy of life is injected tremendously through the chain and from the roots.
Although it was still within the tolerance range of Seong Ji-han’s body.
It seemed like if the energy continued to build up like this, it would be consumed by this.
Seong Ji-han was thinking about how to respond to this, but on the outside he looked surprised and asked Gilgamesh.
“A little while ago, were you the one who survived?”
“right.”
“Was this what happened in the beginning…? … “It shows what happened back then well.”
“Hehe, what happened in the beginning was forbidden to be revealed due to a promise with the God of War… … “You just happened to witness the memories I left behind in the roots, so this is not a breach of contract.”
Is this how you avoided the contract with Musin?
This looks more like the king of fraud than the king of the beginning.
Seong Ji-han looked at him and asked a question.
“Why did you show me this?”
“hmm… … “You still speak short.”
In response to Seong Ji-han’s question, Gilgamesh crossed his arms as if he suddenly didn’t like something.
“The king orders. From now on, show the utmost respect.”
“Nope?”
“… … what?”
Gilgamesh opens his eyes wide.
He looked at Seong Ji-han as if surprised, then nodded.
“As expected, a person with no soul. Isn’t it possible to be dominated all at once? Well then, look again.”
Suuuuu… … .
The world became dark.
The scene Seong Ji-han saw a moment ago was played again.
Starting with 500 people, humanity participates in the experiment up to 10,000 people.
And Gilgamesh, who survived there.
As he grew up, the five vortices gave him the control code.
Seong Ji-han was able to rewatch a movie he had seen from the beginning.
“You’re causing trouble. Bow to the king. “Sung Ji-han.”
Let Gilgamesh’s vision speak haughtily.
“Do it yourself.”
I responded with a calm face.
Then, Gilgamesh’s expression distorted.
“no… … No matter how unmarried, how? Humanity must be ruled by me… … !”
“Because of the ruling code?”
“Dominant code? The code… … read?”
Hearing Seong Ji-han’s words, his eyes widened in disbelief.
‘Why is this guy who saw me writing the extinction code earlier being like this?’
Seong Ji-han didn’t understand his reaction at first.
“Ah, is this an illusion prepared in advance before you clash with me at the Tower of Babel?”
“No, that… … How did know?”
“Because Gilgamesh saw me writing the code from the tower. “The guy who saw that wouldn’t be this surprised to read that.”
“Write code… … you?”
A vision of Gilgamesh looking at Seong Ji-han as if he couldn’t believe it after hearing those words.
“This is ridiculous! How can you write code with a human body?! Even for me, it’s still impossible… … !”
“So you kept showing me how to write code? To be ruled by you?”
Because you can’t write the control code directly.
Was he trying to dominate Seong Ji-han by intentionally playing back the writing of the control code?
Gilgamesh slowly nodded at Seong Ji-han’s words.
“… … okay. If you have reached the root, you are worthy enough to rule. I decided that I had to definitely get it, even if it meant giving up one piece. Can’t stop a candidate for the Holy See. If you have cleared even the tower. I decided to dominate, even if it meant using just one root… … .”
Seong Ji-han was dumbfounded when he heard the welcoming words.
This bastard, how many traps have you dug for your life?
‘however… … The life force of the chain has diminished.’
Seong Ji-han felt that the chains that had been constricting him were weakening.
Is it because of the excitement of illusion? I don’t know if it’s because that ruling code scene is playing.
Anyway, you shouldn’t miss this opportunity.
fillet!
The chain extending from Seong Ji-han’s body was broken.
“Tsk… … can not believe it… … Again, look… … !”
The illusion of Gilgamesh retreated, replaying the previous scene again.
Perhaps because Seong Ji-han was not tied up, the scene of writing the domination code appeared on a huge screen in front of him.
Now, it seemed like they were trying to tie Seong Ji-han down by only playing the extract.
but.
“I heard it doesn’t work.”
Seong Ji-han looked at that and smiled.
“Oh yeah. Should I try it?”
I followed the control code shown on the screen and wrote it down.
Letters engraved in the air following his hand.
Perhaps because it is based on the energy of life, the power was so insufficient that the pattern was not even 1/5 full.
“Koh, writing code… … .”
As soon as the illusion of Gilgamesh saw it, it flopped down in its seat.
and.
In letters that are only used 1/5 of the time.
Shoooooo… … !
The energy of life being sucked in from all directions.
‘I just used Dominance, does it have this effect?’
When Seong Ji-han was looking at the world collapsing.
[Detects and absorbs fragments of incomplete abilities.]
[Would you like to obtain the stat ‘Eternal’?]
A message window appeared for him.
