Chapter 269 – 28. Let’s Take a Break
28. Let’s take a break
Seoul was in chaos.
Tae Eun-gyeong, who went on an expedition to the Sung Empire, has returned.
If he had just returned, he would have held a welcome party or held a festival, but he died and was resurrected.
“How on earth did he die? “What did you see?”
Shin Seo-yul, whom I met after a long time, immediately asked that question.
It occurred to me that asking how you are is the first thing that comes to mind, but when I think about it, this is what I meant. It was so shocking.
“I saw something in space.”
“Space?”
“Yes. There was something like a satellite, and as soon as it saw me, it flashed and came back to life.”
“Hmm.”
It means that he died without having time to react.
No matter how different the specs are from an opponent, there are not many cases where you can kill them as soon as you see them. Wouldn’t it be difficult, at least, if the mythic owner isn’t at the level of dealing with a rare owner?
“It really has everything. I was wondering if the swordsmen of this world were going on a rampage, but now they’re going crazy in space too? “Aren’t they just preparing for aliens to invade?”
“… “Maybe so.”
I hope that’s not the case.
The entire human race has already been devastated by suffering almost one after another. If we are hit again, we may truly be unable to recover.
It is only possible for humanity to maintain its current level of civilization because one large metropolitan area called Seoul (metropolitan area) exists almost intact. Is impossible.
“Anyway, because it was such a situation, I also called all the executives in the Sung Empire. “This is an emergency meeting.”
“That’s what…”
“By the way, how are you? How is the pregnancy situation?”
“Me?”
She gently stroked her stomach.
When Eun-kyung left, she was sure she was pregnant, but her belly didn’t swell at all.
Of course, it’s quite possible because it didn’t take that long. But…
“Well. “I don’t know.”
“I don’t know.”
“I don’t know. What happened to me too? “Nothing has changed.”
“…”
If nothing has changed, she probably isn’t pregnant.
When she first said she was pregnant, she didn’t say that she had two lines on her breast or that she underwent a detailed examination at the hospital.
She just said in her official words, ‘I’m probably pregnant.’
‘Did you just say that to let me go in peace?’
Even though she’s a brainiac, I thought she had quite a bit of potential.
Starting from going to 〈Yamato〉 to edit the leadership of 〈Human Federation〉 and 〈UO〉 to conquering the Sung Empire, it is virtually a sex trip full of sex, and no matter how generous she is, her actions are restricted when her wife is by her side. There has to be this.
Maybe she was considerate of that… !
“Sister, I don’t know what’s going on in the universe, but anyway, we’ll have quite a bit of time alone for the time being. “I will definitely get you pregnant, so don’t worry.”
“? Okay.”
She tilted her head slightly and then nodded.
+++
Eun-kyung had a brief chat with Seo-yul and the remaining executives in Seoul, and as soon as the situation was roughly resolved, she headed to Seoul’s largest automated factory.
In other words, it is a factory, but in fact, it is a research group that combines all the scientific power of the current Changchun clan. A few months ago, Lee Ga-young, who is in charge of the group, was entrusted with the development of autonomous combat robots and additional production and research of suit mass production facilities.
“I heard that you died, or rather, that you were resurrected, but you came straight to me. “Do you have something to tell me?”
A suit development room full of complex equipment. A woman jumped out, wearing protective gear similar to swimming goggles and a full-body lab coat that looked like something out of a movie.
She is Lee Ga-young.
He was a crazy bitch who was happy that the world had become a mess and that he could conduct experiments solely for the advancement of science without being bound by morality.
“You’ve already heard the news. He went into space, died instantly, and was resurrected. “I need to see if there’s something in space.”
“Well, I’m offended, but there’s nothing special about the universe. At least in the Earth’s atmosphere.”
“Have you already seen it?”
“I see it all the time. “It’s not me who sees it, but astronomers.”
“Isn’t it because it’s so small that you couldn’t see it? Compared to the Earth, what I saw was so small that I might not have seen it. It’s above the Sung Empire. Ah, it may have come out with the emergence of the Sung Empire.”
Lee Ga-young groaned for a moment and took off her lab coat, which had been fastened with an elastic band.
Her long, wet hair was splashed with sweat.
“Please follow me.”
The place we followed her was her small room.
To be in a small room with a sweaty beauty. She felt a pain in her lower abdomen for no reason, but she endured it because she had a purpose.
“… Your Excellency is a special person. Perhaps your Excellency saw something that a commoner like me could not. Aren’t you the one who even controls time?”
“… Is there really nothing in the atmosphere?”
“Every man-made object has data. It shows where, when and for what purpose it was shot. What is not is debris from satellites or space debris. But I can’t imagine that they caused any harm to His Excellency.”
“Yes. What I saw was something close to a satellite. Equipped with weapons.”
“So, I have a few hypotheses. First, it is an alien civilization with something artificial that cannot be seen with the eyes of human science. Second, it is a type of local rock. Third, it is an NPC spaceship.”
“The first thing is that there is no answer even if I say it… Second, probably not. “I am not influenced by regionalism.”
“Then let’s look at the third family first.”
“NPC’s spaceship.”
“It’s a bit of a leap, but they emerged from the dimensional experiments they were doing in China. And the place where the Sung Empire emerged is on the Chinese mainland, and the place where your Excellency suffered the misfortune is in its skies. You can also see that there is some connection. Moreover, assuming it was from an NPC, it makes sense that His Excellency was killed at once. “They are the ones who manage the system.”
“Hmm.”
That’s plausible.
But still, questions remain.
It is ‘intention.’
The question is, why did they kill him?
“Well, even if we assume that, there are many parts that I don’t understand. For example, I don’t understand leaving His Excellency alone.”
“What is that again?”
“If I were an NPC, I would never leave someone like you alone. Normally, it would be normal for one legendary owner to cost 10 million LP, but Your Excellency can create a universe owner that is two levels higher than that with only 1 million LP. Is that it? It can handle editing that defies all laws of physics and even time, although in a limited way. No matter how much you think about it, it’s an imbalance so serious that it makes no sense.”
“Well, I always think it was a design mistake.”
“So this is the conclusion I came up with.”
She took a moment to choose her words as she took off her goggle-type safety glasses.
“NPCs are not omnipotent either. No, is it a bit strange to say it this way?”
“?”
“The NPC may not have full access to the system.”
“Ah.”
“No matter what I want to do, Your Excellency, I can’t. According to some untouchable law.”
There is ample possibility.
No matter how much you think about it, the skill called ‘administrator access’ that Eun-kyung has is a skill that makes no sense.
Leaving this as is itself an error.
‘It’s also a skill I picked up before coming to this world in the first place. Even NPCs may not know what’s what.’
“Still, NPCs are basically people who control the system, so it is somewhat understandable if they say that they have some kind of space weapon that surpasses the space level and used it to kill His Excellency. Of course, this is all my personal opinion. The logical structure is also sloppy.”
“It’s plausible enough. Especially the part about why you leave me alone.”
“Yes. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand it. Perhaps the series of trials that have taken place so far were designed to eliminate His Excellency.”
“I said that it was an ordeal that could be easily overcome by today’s civilization.”
Gayoung smiled faintly at his words.
Combined with the dark circles revealed after taking off the safety glasses, I felt a strange eerie feeling.
“Do you really think so? “The Advent Incident and the uprising of the Sung Empire were really events that humanity could handle?”
“Hmm.”
“If it weren’t for you both, it would have been an unanswerable disaster. In fact, if you look at the current situation of humanity, it is truly miserable. You shouldn’t judge Seoul by looking at it. Seoul is a different world.”
“It certainly is. Even Yamato, which escaped disaster to some extent because it is an island country, was in a mess.”
“No matter how high you put it, the current world population is probably around 400 to 500 percent of what it was before the Advent incident. Even if you don’t do it, half of them are dead. In the military, even if only 20% of the entire force is lost, it is considered annihilated. “It’s as if humanity was completely wiped out.”
“…”
