Chapter 1045 – Surviving the Main Store.
“Huh…”
In the dark.
I thought there was an earthquake all of a sudden, and in this situation thrown into a city, the employees inside a building looked around and tried to figure out the situation.
Window. Entrance. The holes are all closed with shutters.
Even the lights were off, so it was very dark inside.
The employees of the head office tried to light up the lights or check the outside situation with their own items or skills.
“What happened…?”
“The dimensional corridor has collapsed. This city is a collection of all the buildings of the headquarters.”
“…!!”
A male employee who is astonished at the answer of a carefree, muddy-haired colleague.
“It can’t be…!! Breaking the dimensional corridor? That’s impossible!!”
Seeing his eyes wanting him to deny it, the male employee with thick hair shrugged his shoulders.
“Yes. To begin with, the head office is in the other world. What can a guy who casually invaded such a place not do?”
The staff blinked their eyes at the muddy-haired colleague calmly taking out a sword and preparing various things.
“What are you doing?”
“Ready to go to headquarters.”
“To the headquarters…? But you can’t enter the headquarters without a first-class pass…?”
The ranks of the employees are thoroughly divided, and the lower ranks cannot even see the edge of the headquarters.
In the first place, since they are in different dimensions, there is no way to go even if they try to go.
“Idiot. Now all the other worlds have merged. Headquarters is at the far end.”
The user with excellent perception closed his eyes and muttered, “Oh, it’s real…”.
“But there are so many people outside?”
“Are there many people?”
Eight days. They also saw that the madman was killing the employees of the head office without saying anything.
As a user, it was the head office that spread the live cam function to the community, so I couldn’t help but see it.
The madman is walking outside, but the employees are walking around outside?
At that time, a male employee with thick hair said.
“Fortunately, there seems to be at least one smart fellow elsewhere.”
“Ok?”
Knowing that they were being sarcastic, the employees looked at the man with the messy hair with displeasure.
He opened his mouth, checking the chambers and sights of his gun, regardless of the sharp gazes.
“You guys. Didn’t you get the instructions when you joined the company? Passes and situations in case of emergency. This and that was written on it.”
Of course I got it
Occasionally, I took a test at the head office level, and I used to raise questions about what was written in the manual.
Most of the employees were familiar with the contents of the manual, because if they got good grades, they would get a lot of points and their grades would go up.
But people at the head office are also human.
It is easy to forget the knowledge that you have memorized once you pass the exam.
As they are excellent people, I remember them deeply, but it was difficult to compare the contents of the manual with this situation.
The muddy-haired employee opened his mouth at the eyes demanding an explanation.
“It was assumed that the collapse of the dimensional corridor was an event that could not have been described in the manual. Nevertheless, the meticulous chairman Shin Soo-ryun prepared for that event. When the dimensional corridor collapses, all areas are naturally merged. It says it will be activated.”
“…The inner world…!!”
“Could it be the mind of director Shin Jin-pae or chairman Shin Su-ryun?”
The muddy-haired male employee glared at the male employee who had just opened his mouth.
“I’m sure you haven’t read the manual. They say it’s not their mind system, but it’s from somewhere else. As it’s borrowed, it’s less effective than normal mind systems, but it’s still powerful because it’s a mind system.”
Perfect for repelling intruders.
However, even though they heard that they were protected by the spirit world, the anxiety of the employees did not disappear.
“But the opponent is eight?”
“Reina, who has a perfect mind system, and Poise.
“Fool. If you look at the eight days of fighting, he always chose to avoid as much as possible when dealing with the heart.”
It seems that recently the person himself has been able to activate the mental system. He heard that there are huge restrictions on the use of the heart system.
“He also collapsed the dimensional corridor, but his intellect is blocking him. This situation must be unexpected. At least. Being quiet without an onslaught right now means that he is aware of the situation or is not able to break through the main store’s intellect.”
“Hmm…”
“The guys outside know that at least for now, even if they’re outside, eight days won’t attack them. In addition, if you delay, the situation will turn against you.”
It’s a heart system, but it’s a weak heart system, so eight days will break the heart system.
He could borrow the help of his friends like Hiro Kaitsu right away.
“Then the main point is over.”
“So. The people outside right now are out to get rid of the eight days before the mind system disappears…?”
“It would be nice to have such passionate employees… But they’re probably moving for the same reasons as me.”
Now, the employees were huddled together next to the man with the messy hair and were listening.
“Same reason as you? Why do you bother to leave the building and go to the headquarters?”
“Not only intruders but also us cannot escape from the mental system activated after the dimensional corridor collapses. Only the president or director has the right to escape.”
After a moment of silence. Screams broke out among the temples.
“What?! Why?!”
“We can’t go out either?!”
The messy-haired male employee nodded his head.
“I told you. It’s a mind system borrowed from someone else. It must have been impossible to completely control the mind system without the person himself.”
“Even though…!”
At the hysterical shouts, the man with thick hair must have been noisy, so he frowned and stared at him as if telling him to be quiet.
“Keep calm. Since the dimensional corridor is not going to collapse in the first place, is there a mental system? It was installed with such a light thought. I’m telling you.”
At that time. A male user wearing square glasses with an intelligent impression who had been silent until now spoke.
“You. Didn’t you call the chairman Mr. Shin Soo-ryun something… Too carelessly?”
The muddy-haired male employee snorted.
“It’s her fault for not foreseeing this situation even after provoking her in the first place. We may face her death as a result of her move without considering our damage at all. We will respect her. Is there a reason?”
No one was able to open their mouth to the confident words.
“…You, by any chance. Is the reason you want to go to the headquarters to fight the president?”
“I’m not a suicidal person. I won’t fight. I’ll have to go to him.”
“Why? I don’t understand. Please explain properly.”
“Idiot. Don’t be in a hurry. Just keep quiet and listen.”
At least, the calm-looking female employee scolded the hysterical male employee. The bushy-haired male employee nodded her head and continued her words.
“First of all, the reason I prepare for battle is to prepare for the unexpected.”
“You mean eight days?”
“There are guys. Actually, I think our main enemy is the heart of this head office.”
The surroundings fell into silence for a while.
“No? Why? It’s a simgyeom to protect the head office?”
“I’ve said it several times. This is a mental system borrowed from ‘someone’ who ‘roughly’ unfolded it for an emergency. The manual simply stated that it would eliminate intruders. Only the directors and the chairman have some authority within this mental system. I think they probably put a spell on their identification cards to recognize them as allies. Is there any guarantee that the mental world recognizes other employees as not intruders?”
After the long explanation, the surroundings became quiet.
That’s right.
In Elyunar, which has many unique abilities, there were countless unexpected cases. Any possibility had to be considered.
“Maybe the reason these security shutters were put up in the first place was to protect us from the inner world, not intruders.”
“But. The people outside are getting along just fine…?”
“It’s walking around, but with your radar skill, you don’t know if it’s safe or not, right?”
It was.
“Of course, this is just my guess. But I’m sure the people outside are heading towards the headquarters building with utmost caution, with the thought that they might be attacked by the Mind World like me.”
Each employee was lost in thought.
They soon regained their composure.
Although they are at the bottom, they are also employees of the head office, who are treated as elites by the public.
“Then why do you want to go to the president at the risk of being attacked by an intruder?”
“There are two reasons.”
The female employee from earlier said in a lively voice to the muddy-haired male employee who was staring at him as if trying to guess what it was.
“I want to get away from you!”
“Okay. That’s right too.”
“That too…? Any other reason?”
“You might think it was a natural reason to run away from the nearest eight days and head to the safe headquarters. I think this is the other reason why employees are taking risks and moving to headquarters.”
Clap. A shaggy-haired man with his gun loaded narrowed his eyes.
“As I said several times before, the only people who can escape from the realm of the heart are the chairman and the directors. I will do it.”
“…!!”
Seeing the surprised employees, the muddy-haired man nodded his head.
“Yes. That’s right. You guys think they’re going to defeat Eight Days, but maybe they’ll abandon us and run away. The question is, will they come back to rescue us after they get out of here?”
A cold silence falls.
All had skeptical faces.
“Will that cold-hearted chairman ever come to find us again? It’s questionable whether he can come to find a place that collapsed in the first place and turned into someone else’s mind. Now you understand? Why is everyone taking risks?”
It is said that if you are left behind for nothing, you may die without getting out of this place.
“Wait a minute. There are two idiots in your words.”
An intelligent looking man raised two of his fingers.
“First of all. Although the headquarters is physically close, if you approach without permission, an interception system that is incomparable to the building where our lower-level employees stay. Second. If you say it. Didn’t the chairman and the directors escape already?”
The muddy-haired male employee smiled, as if he thought it was a good question.
“My answer is this. The answer to the first question is that it’s better to deal with the interception system than to die like this. Second. I checked earlier, but all the doors normally used for exits are broken. I don’t know anything else, but only the exit. The headquarters has the same specifications.”
“Then doesn’t that mean that neither the chairman nor the directors can escape after all?”
This is a question for others to hear.
Recognizing this, the male employee with a thick hair raised the corners of her mouth and spoke in a relatively friendly voice.
“You seem to have read the manual correctly. Isn’t there a phrase like this in the manual?”
The muddy-haired man summoned the manual and read the text.
[When the dimensional corridor collapses, a contractual judgment occurs, and only the chairman and directors have the authority to use the judgment and emergency doors.]
“…Emergency door?”
“Yes. That word bothered me too. Isn’t that a guess?”
A man wearing round glasses muttered an emergency door, and the intelligent man denied it, then shook his head.
“Just because there’s a sign saying ’emergency door’ doesn’t guarantee that the exit is really a door…”
Right now, even the entrances to numerous buildings in the main store are disguised as potted plants or books.
“You have a point. But again, it’s a hundred times better than standing still. And I’m convinced that the emergency door is the right way out. Because if he could have escaped at any time, Mr. Shin Su-ryun would have run away from the priestess and himself. “
There was no need to fight back with Yeodere.
But before his dimensional corridor collapsed. Even when the usual escape hatches were still working, he didn’t escape right away.
Perhaps the forces had done something for eight days, so they had no choice but to use the emergency door.
“It’s too late to explain. Decide. We have two choices.”
“Two things? Weren’t you going to the headquarters?”
Juseom juseom Watching the people getting up, the man with the messy hair moved his steps towards the exit.
Employees follow him.
“Hey, Suhan! Answer me!!”
As he descended the stairs, the shaggy-haired male employee quickly explained.
“Her one hopeful plan. Her president hasn’t escaped yet. Find her and escape together. But if this plan fails… We’ll have to repel her intruders.”
“…You mean fighting Eighth Day is the second choice?!?!”
Someone shouted as if screaming.
“Nonsense!!”
A few women let out a slit.
The shaggy-haired user who saw it narrowed his eyes.
‘Users’ bodies have mental protection, so they’re not afraid at all. This reaction…’
As expected, Dre thought it was dangerous, and the shaggy hair continued.
“Of course. It’s not like we’re fighting.”
“What? Then how are we going to repel the eight days?”
Then, for some reason, the intelligent man who had been covering his mouth with one hand in amazement opened his mouth.
“You… Department 0. Are you planning to use the Mystery Department…?”
“Okay.”
Mystery Department?
In the midst of doubt and tension among the fellow students, the man with an intelligent impression who had been thinking for a long time nodded his head.
“Well… Though that plan is also unrealistic. It’s better that way. It’s too risky to fight Eadre directly.”
I don’t know what he meant, but the employees felt relieved when he thought he was saying that he would not directly fight Yeodee.
“That’s right. I don’t even have the right to resurrect…!”
A male employee who was driven into a corner to the point of blowing his own specifications with his own mouth said bluntly.
However, the intelligent man shook his head at those words.
“With or without resurrection rights. It’s too dangerous to fight him.”
“Huh? That’s dangerous. It could blow our heads off at once…”
Ha ha The shaggy-haired man walking ahead sighed.
“You guys… How did you really get into the head office?”
“You talk too much!”
The words were yes, but the tone was soft.
Now they had a hunch that they could only survive if they followed this muddy-headed temple.
The exuberant female employee who had calmed down the excited employees earlier asked as she stuck behind the muddy-haired male employee.
“But why is it dangerous even with the right to resurrect?”
“…You guys. Have you seen the corpses of the guys who fought with you?”
“…Dead body?”
“Uh… That gore…”
Yeodere didn’t kill in the usual way.
It was very brutally dismantled, as if one must see the internal organs to be freed.
And the messy-haired male employee said as if he was tired of it.
“Normally. When you die, the corpse disappears, right? Our users.”
At that point.
A sense of desolation prevailed.
“…”
“…”
“…”
After a long silence. The man with an intelligent impression said as if driving a wedge.
“Looking at past cases. Although there are cases where a corpse disappears without the right of resurrection. There is only one case where a corpse remains. It is only when it is completely dead.”
In other words.
If Yeodere dies.
There is no resurrection.
Distrust.
And cover it. Fear.
As if to dispel the spreading despair, the intelligent male employee added quickly.
“So you don’t want to fight directly? The monsters from the Mystery Department will suffice against him.”
“What is the Mystery Department in the first place?”
To that question, the shaggy-haired male employee answered.
“…That’s it. I’ll tell you if the first plan fails.”
Now, the urgent priority is to go to the head office and find the chairman.
“Actually, the best thing is to find the new director. If that person is good, he’s probably planning to get everyone out. But. Worst case. In other words, when all the directors and the chairman escape…”
The moment he blurted out his words, a man with a tousled hair who arrived at the exit opened the shutter and took a deep breath.
“…Then we go to the Mystery Department. Now, is everyone ready?”
“…Okay.”
“Damn it. This is the judge’s version.’
“Good!!”
About ten people.
The man with shaggy hair who smiled for the first time at his determined colleagues gave strength to the door… And then the door suddenly opened automatically. I fell forward naturally.
Dump!
“Uh?”
I thought the door would open by itself. The thing in front of him is… Hideous. It was like a wart.
Jiying. He heard the creepy insect’s wings and opened his mouth.
Awesome
The praying mantis bit the shaggy-haired man’s face.
“Uh, wait. Ugh. Ugh… Ugh…”
Choo Woo-wook.
Soon, the torso that was separated from his stretched body fluttered. He fell to the floor
Dumb head office users. Only then could I see the scenery outside.
… There was life.
But. Not a person
A myriad of giant insects.
Creatures made of light or wind.
Or battleship.
Or, monsters that seem to have been combined with them. Walking around the inside of the main store.
And far away I could feel the gaze.
On top of the cliff. That guy who circles his hands and looks this way…
“…Eight days.”
Seeing countless heads under his feet, players had a premonition.
If not to repel the author.
Can never survive
