Chapter 680 – 680. Committee of Seven 1
All it takes is a few catastrophes in a gathering of people.
Throwing lightning spheres one by one is a bit annoying.
But I can’t help it. Because skill is precious.
The number of 1,500 people was quickly filled. Immediately, Q&A posted a message saying it was answering.
Indeed. Where is this guy named Philip?
[Answer: Guam, Northern Mariana Islands. Ypao Beach is less than 1 kilometer away.]
Eh? Guam?
The message clearly said Guam. A famous tourist destination.
The place Se-Ah said she wanted to go last time.
But where is Guam? Ypao Beach?
These guys… I really like resorts. After Hawaii, Guam?
Why Guam? Ah. Is it because it’s an American territory?
Anyway, now that I know the destination, I have to go.
When I opened the map and measured the distance, it was about 3,000 kilometers from Korea.
Oh, do you still have anything saved in Kyushu? There is.
The distance has been reduced to about 2,700 kilometers. I gained 300 kilometers.
Since the skill limit breakthrough is level 32, the flight speed was calculated to be approximately 2,700 kilometers per hour.
It’s perfect. Is it a one-hour cut? The world is getting smaller day by day.
What… I’m tired of making a fuss about things like this.
I wish the detection range could be increased this much.
Then teleport to Kyushu and then fly towards Guam.
But I don’t know if I can figure out the direction for this.
I don’t think it would be easy to fly 2,700 kilometers and find an island floating in the open sea.
The situation is different from the Maldives, right? I don’t think it will be easy.
Pick a direction and fly right away. While flying with the surroundings whizzing by.
As it flies like that, it sprays out lightning spheres vigorously. Hey. Anyone can see that this is a UFO.
Incredible speeds, flight that defies inertia and gravity, and even strange effects.
UFOs weren’t a big deal. He was just a flight skill user who worked hard to break the limit!
I continue to fly while using such useless imagination and skill training.
One hour. First, it was only an hour flight… The problem starts now.
Even if you look around, all you see is the sea, the sea, the sea.
Really… Hate. Fuck GPS. Why doesn’t it work?
Should I at least carry a sextant like I did during the Age of Exploration? But again, that only shows latitude, right?
Ah-oh. Really. It’s annoying. This is really a bad thing to do.
It took an hour to get here from Kyushu, but wandering around on the sea took two hours.
And the island we eventually discovered. Fuck! Okay. I wish I had found something.
At least I’ll know where I am.
I flew straight to the island. An island where you can’t feel any presence at all.
When I went and checked, I found out that this island was Tinion Island, and when I checked the map, it was an island right above Guam.
No. Even if it is directly above, it is almost 200 kilometers. Damn.
This is why I don’t like the vast ocean. Anyway, that’s it. If it’s like this, you won’t be lost anymore.
Guam arrived so quickly. Good. For now, I’ve come.
First, save it… But where did you say that? Ypao Beach?
I looked at the map carefully and found that it was in the central part of the island.
The distance isn’t that far, so I’ll go right away.
And the signs that are felt. The numbers are quite large. There must be more than a few hundred people?
I look at them with clairvoyance and detection. Good… Which guy is that Philip?
I looked at it for a while… I found a few familiar people.
The top floor of a hotel, usually accommodation for VVIPs.
Three pretty-looking women there. I have seen those women.
Even though I’m not good at remembering men, I know women’s faces well.
Clearly, they are ancient dragon women. The women in his hideout.
I’m not wearing a sexy dress like back then, but I can tell for sure.
But why are those women here?
Moreover, if those women are here, does that mean the guys in suits who missed that time are also here?
And that woman is not the only face I know. There was another woman I knew.
King Dragon’s woman. The woman who was with Wang Yong at the Singapore hotel.
The relationship between the two seemed quite special. It couldn’t have been a simple relationship.
In any case, the fact that she is here means that Philip, who was said to be in charge of Horizon’s Asia, is doing a great job.
This means that all close associates of China’s fallen powerful figures have been secured.
That means that at least we know everything that happened in China, right?
There’s no way to get more information right now, so I’ll just watch from afar for now.
However… The Americans are really eager to build a base camp.
Although it is not a completely indulgent place like Hawaii, there are quite a few things here as well.
Clean hotel with restaurants, cafés and well-maintained beach. Under. Fuck. Welfare is perfect.
Horizon. Maybe it’s a good place to work?
If the humans in Hawaii are the personnel for the ROF PROJECT, then what on earth are these people?
Are they the people who came to clean up Asia? Then it’s too late.
There are already few humans left in Asia.
What I’m most worried about is how much these guys know.
Do you know about the Ark that was Jangryong’s hideout?
There’s no way that there won’t be any defectors among Jangryong’s subordinates, right?
I don’t think that many bastards would have been absolutely loyal to Jangryong.
There are definitely people who think differently.
And there’s no way they wouldn’t know the location of the hideout they were in.
I had already thought about that, so I put Aki on defense.
But if only those remnants were left, I wouldn’t have worried so much.
Even if they return to the ark, we can easily stop them.
But things are different now. What if those guys provide information to the Americans?
It won’t be easy. Anyway, the Horizon guys are also quite dangerous guys.
I need to find out first. Their size, number of people, abilities, plans… There are all things that can be known.
Of course, to do that, I have no choice but to find out what I’m good at. Putting you to sleep and reading your memory.
Depending on the level of information you know, you may have to kill them all.
Anyway, there is nothing we can do right now.
All we can do is watch. You can only move when night falls, and they are asleep, right?
I look at them one by one from afar.
Surprisingly, there are a lot of guys who look like crazy guys. In Hawaii, the proportion of Asians was very low.
There are a lot of strange things here? Is it local hiring? Ah. That could be possible.
A county-level detachment would be useless, but a paid, provincial, or special detachment would be useful personnel.
It would be okay to kill those guys and use them as coins, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take them in moderation and use them as cannon fodder.
Of course… I won’t trust those who surrendered so easily.
But that’s something that can only be said in a world without skills.
In this world where memory manipulation and fascination exist, it is quite possible to rewrite people, right?
No, you can leave it as is and just have the guy with the marking track it.
That alone won’t stop you from doing anything useless.
Anyway… Aside from these guys.
I think about the Horizon guys.
Grandmaster and committee of seven.
First, we figured out what the three of us do.
One is the Mirage Ocean Chairman in charge of ROF PROJECT.
And for some reason, he was even in charge of organizing Europe.
The other one is the guy the chairman met. He said he was in charge of Africa.
Besides, he said he had almost everything sorted out.
And Philip. Asia representative here in Guam. This is the guy I have to check from now on.
But it’s a little strange. The chairman of Mirage Ocean has too many responsibilities.
ROF PROJECT and its subsidiary Kraken were farming in South America.
And the Hero Association was also affiliated with Kraken. And even to Europe?
Do other guys have this level of authority? I feel like I have too much work to do?
Moreover, he must have received reports of the annihilation of those in Europe, but he did not disclose this to those on the same committee.
Something sucks. Is that guy really powerful? The Grandmaster is a scarecrow and that guy is the real thing?
If I hadn’t read his memories, I think I’d be able to suspect that.
But that’s not it. The Grandmaster was not a guy who could be made to sit in the chair.
Hmm… Instead of staying like this, should I read his memories one more time?
This time, focusing on the committee members.
I don’t know how much information I know, but I still have to find out as much as I can.
I took out my smartphone and checked the world clock.
Let’s see. Because it’s 2pm in Guam right now… Miami… It’s midnight?
Not bad, right? I can go right away and read the memories.
I was immediately transported to Miami.
The chairman is sleeping, and the employees are also quiet.
It’s fully prepared, so you can read your memories right away. Thank you.
I used Blink and Phase Out to approach the chairman and immediately put him to sleep.
It’s so sloppy. How can it be so lax?
Of course, he also has quite a few skills, so he doesn’t need to use a separate bodyguard, but… This is too lax.
Am I great? Or is this guy insensitive to safety?
How would he react if he found out that he was being tracked and that I could come and read his memories whenever I wanted?
Would you be shocked? I guess so?
I’m trying to read the memory like that… For a moment, I had a creepy thought.
If… What if the Grandmaster had tracked everything down to the 7-member committee?
Thinking about it gave me goosebumps. I was wondering if he knew that I was reading this guy’s memories.
I wondered if there was something wrong with my actions.
Last time I infiltrated, I was naturally using shrinkage and invisibility when reading memories.
Moreover, I infiltrated him after confirming that he was asleep.
In that case, even if the Grandmaster were to track me, he would not be able to notice my approach.
Even if you were looking with detection or clairvoyance, you wouldn’t have been able to spot my bug-sized appearance.
For now… I didn’t do anything to get caught.
I need to be a little more careful. You must never do anything that exposes your existence.
If the Grandmaster is a dark figure trying to control everything behind the scenes in the world, then I am a shadow.
It must never be exposed to the sun. You have to completely hide and do something.
The only time I show up is when I have an absolute advantage and my opponent cannot spread information about me.
However… I think the Grandmaster knows of my existence anyway.
Even if you don’t know my name, what I look like, or where I am, you will know my existence.
If he had deleted the Q&A skill, he would know.
At least there is someone else who uses this skill other than yourself.
But maybe you haven’t tried it. If you’re dumber than you think, you might not think like that.
But I don’t make that assumption.
You must act thinking that your opponent is smarter and stronger than you.
You shouldn’t let down your guard or underestimate anything. That’s the perfect thing to lose your life.
Anyway, read the president’s memories.
Focusing on the 7-member committee, which I couldn’t read last time because I was busy reading memories of ROF PROJECT.
He reads the memories until about 5 a.M. And then teleports to New York.
I wish I could read a little more, but I have no choice since he has to go to work again.
Tsk. The life of an office worker is so pitiful. Even though I’m the president, I still have to show up for work on time.
I used Phase Out once on top of the Empire State Building and canceled it right away.
If this is the case, the chairman who is sleeping is no more. That’s it… I apply all the buffs again and think for a moment.
It’s only 7pm in Guam. There’s no need to go there yet. If you want to read the memories, you have to go there late at night.
Instead, I decided to do something else in the meantime. The committee guys I read from the chairman’s memories.
We need to find as many of those guys as possible and track them down.
If you want to deal with the Grandmaster, you need to know what his limbs are doing and where they are.
It’s a good thing that the chairman, Reynolds, knows the names of all the other committee members.
Thanks to him, things became a little easier.
The seven-member committee says there are seven people, but in reality there are six.
Because one person has just been appointed and is not doing anything.
The president whose memories I read, Vincent B. Reynolds, was originally in charge of South America.
David Anderson in charge of Africa.
Rhian Philippe in charge of Asia.
President Brandon Thomas in charge of the U.S. Mainland.
Jacob Miller in charge of Russia.
Chloe Evans assists the Grandmaster.
And Matthew Brown came in to replace the guy in charge of Europe who died.
Still… I’m glad they have English names.
At least it’s easy to memorize and call names, right? Of course, I have no intention of memorizing it.
But the one who stands out the most is Brandon Thomas, who is in charge of the U.S. Mainland.
Even the president. President of the United States! A man I know!
This is unbearable. A single Korean college student can become the President of the United States.
Nice… How can you tolerate this? Of course, I should.
Besides, you were already curious, right?
Where can the president wander around like this after emptying the White House? Insolently.
If there had been a Q&A when I came to the US, things would have been easier.
If only I knew the location of the president, I could immediately approach the seven-member committee.
Anyway, once you have decided on your goal, you have to go for it right away. There is no need to hesitate.
First… The first thing to do is find out his location through Q&A.
