Chapter 208 – 208. Garden 2
The reception room looks like a rest area next to an ordinary road.
It really is a rest area no matter who looks at it. A large parking lot and a large, featureless building.
It’s a building where you have to park your car, go to the bathroom, and then buy an ice cream from a store that pretends to be a convenience store even though it’s not a convenience store.
But if you look closely, something was different.
The signboard was deliberately removed, and the entrance was completely blocked except for the front.
Once you enter, it feels like an ant hell where you can never come out again.
Why do I feel that way? For what reason?
“I…”
A voice whispering softly.
“Who? Is it Jeong Hyeon?”
“Yes. Look at the end over there.”
Jeong Hyeon speaks softly and quickly.
“If you say it’s the other end, I don’t know.”
“Ah. That’s right. You can’t see it. There are two buses parked on the far left.”
“Ah.”
It’s the same bus as the one at the camp. It seems like there were two buses that I missed that time.
It should be said that the situation in the camp has already been reported.
So do you think the campers will target their property as well?
Umm… If it were me, I would at least be on guard. Still, they probably wonder if they will come to attack them. The scale is different.
“Try to stop.”
After saying that and approaching a little, I caught a glimpse of his presence through detection.
It fell right back. Because they said there are guys with detection skills.
There is no need to announce our presence now. Surprise is the surest formula for victory.
We shouldn’t expose ourselves and put people on guard for no reason.
“Let’s fall in.”
First, I retreated from the reception room.
We need to gather information. It is not a surprise attack if you rush in blindly. A surprise attack is to take advantage of a gap based on certain information.
There was a large greenhouse across from the rest area and I saw a sign saying it was a flower garden, so I took everyone there.
As soon as I enter the flower garden, I feel a sense of warmth. Is it because it’s a flower garden? Heating is maintained.
When I unlocked the transparency, everyone followed suit and unlocked the transparency. Perhaps because of the cold weather, everyone’s faces are reddish.
“Okay. For now, everyone is waiting here.”
“Huh? Wait?”
Yunseo’s puzzled answer. I smiled and told her.
“I’m not telling you to hang out here. I’m telling you to monitor the front entrance. Check everything: incoming vehicles, people, the slightest movement. Always maintain transparency. From now on, you too will have to keep going outside. Resting in a warm place. I’m watching today thinking it’s the last day.”
“Ah, I understand.”
“I’ll go out and come back.”
“Yes.”
I left the women behind, put on a transparent mask, and came out.
You can’t carelessly approach women without detection. Because I don’t know where or how they are watching.
First, I have to see it with my own eyes first. That way, you can give instructions on what to do even without me.
Just because I was in a warm place for a while made the cold wind feel even colder.
Ah. Fuck. Should I just make a reasonable excuse and wait until the weather improves?
The more I think about this damn cold, the angrier it becomes. My hands and feet feel frozen. Ugh.
I decided to bypass the reception room and go back.
Since you don’t know anything, the priority is to figure it out.
Is this the only entrance? Probably not. There will be a road for cars to enter, and there will be something more anyway.
Since it was originally said to be a cult, there would be a flashy entrance. There’s no way it doesn’t exist.
There needs to be a believable building and entrance for people to be fooled.
I turned sharply to the right and approached.
A mountain road that goes up gently. Why the mountain again? Annoying.
And then I saw a fence in front of me. A similar-shaped fence hangs on the outskirts of the logistics center.
But the difference is that there is a lot of barbed wire on the top of the fence.
And the electric shock warning sign posted there.
Under… Is this the electric fence? Is it really true that electricity is flowing?
There are wires and things like that… It looks quite flimsy. But I can’t even touch it.
Fence and barbed wire with a lot of dried vines attached. Since we can’t confirm it right now, let’s leave it alone. There is no way.
I walked along the fence while maintaining detection.
A fence that continues. Is there an end to this?
After leaving the road, the fence began to climb the mountain in earnest.
I don’t know what kind of bastard installed this, but he must have gone through a lot of trouble. To put up with a fence in a place like this.
Fortunately, there were no guards like in a military unit.
Well, who would target a place like this? Protecting it is a waste of manpower.
Suddenly, after climbing the mountain and walking for a while, the slope went down again.
And the road leading out. As I continued walking along the side of the road, I started to see some decent buildings.
Ah. It’s here.
A road that suddenly widens. And the presence felt.
For now, I retreated out of sight again. The place where you can feel the presence is the building in front.
I turned around and walked towards it, and I saw the entrance. Perhaps this appears to be the original entrance to the garden.
Garden of Eden. Even if you just listen to the name, it’s a fake.
A large sign posted at the entrance. And a heavy iron gate and a security room next to it.
The problem is that you cannot pass in front of it outside the detection range.
This is difficult. If I want to go back, I think I’ll have to go a long way up the mountain road on the right.
Is that guy in there detectable? Even if there is, is he using it now? Probably not. Detection is a skill that cannot be turned on all day.
Ah… I don’t want to compromise like this. Should I just pass by thinking it won’t happen?
Conflict continues. AC. Since when did I worry about something like this?
I left the road and went up the mountain path on the right.
It’s better for my body to be a little tired than to be alert for a moment.
What could be more suspicious than that if it became known that the guy wearing invisibility was wandering around near the entrance.
As I climbed up the mountain path, I could see quite a bit inside the entrance.
Good thing you came up. Shall we take a look here?
I took out the binoculars and looked inside the entrance.
Inside the heavy iron gate, a well-paved asphalt road continues inward.
Buildings that look like gyms and other large buildings. They built things like this in a place like this.
Well, they probably do this because they have that level of infrastructure.
Since I had already climbed the mountain, I climbed the mountain path quite a bit further.
Then, the inside of the garden that was hidden by the building was visible.
Vinyl greenhouses spread out. And countless containers.
And I see people moving little by little. Therefore… Are you saying those greenhouses operate all year round?
Green houses and containers that are quite neatly zoned.
And there were also very large greenhouses. And even agricultural machinery is moving inside.
And… It’s really serious. I guess this is enough to feed that many people, right?
I moved further to see other places.
The most impressive thing is the cattle barn. Oh my god. How many are there? Is it huge?
If the distribution center is a convenience store, this is like a large supermarket.
Amazing facilities as far as the eye can see.
These facilities probably would not have been maintained if electricity and water were not unlimited. No matter how much I think about it, it seems impossible.
That level of density… Can you afford something like feed?
Perhaps there are growth skills here too, right? If you think about it, it is beneficial to use growth on large animals such as cows.
If you’re going to skip the growth process in the middle, it’s better to just fry a large animal, right? Moreover, there is nowhere to dispose of cows.
Even a piece of bone is boiled and eaten. Even leather can be used.
Why didn’t I think of cows? We should also ask them to raise cows at the logistics center. The smell of cow dung… I told him to figure out what to do.
Watching through binoculars really makes my heart feel majestic.
Really… I think the bastard who created something like this is at the level of a warlord in difficult times. It’s great to make it and great to maintain.
This isn’t something that can be done with just one or two people. What the… This is it.
The fact that he is still running this without any problems makes him one of the most capable.
This doesn’t go back to skill.
I began to have doubts about whether I would be able to operate even if I successfully took control of this place.
I’ve never thought about it like that… In reality, I’m starting to feel a little less confident.
Umm… Let’s take control of that first and then think about it.
There’s no point in thinking about making apple jam when you haven’t even picked apples.
After looking at it for a while longer, I walked along the fence again.
The fence eventually led to the main road, and as I walked along the main road, I saw a reception room.
Than you think… It’s pretty big.
Moreover, there are no empty spaces in the fence. And there are no broken or problematic parts.
In the end, it means continuing to manage… It’s trickier than you think.
When they return to the flower garden, five women are caught by their presence.
I don’t think anything special happened in the meantime… Shall we watch what you are doing for a moment?
No, I’m not watching. Everyone is using invisibility, so nothing can be seen.
I turned around and found the back door of the flower garden. I guess I can go in here without being noticed.
I sneaked in and walked carefully to where the women were.
The difference between detection and non-detection is this big.
If there is no detection, this is just an empty flower garden. Who would have thought that there were six people here, including me.
“Hey, sister.”
“Jia. Be quiet.”
“Hey, sister.”
Jia’s voice changes to a whisper.
Ugh. I really need to get scolded once before I’ll come to my senses.
“That oppa. Is he a good person?”
I have no choice but to listen to this. Are you suddenly talking about me?
“You’re not talking behind the scenes when the parties involved aren’t around.”
“Then do you talk about it when you’re there? You can’t do that.”
“What would you do if they snuck in and are listening to us?”
Jiwon’s words made me feel a little uncomfortable. A sharp woman.
She is not an easy woman to look at.
“Hehe. I knew that would happen, so I put a piece of tape on my clothes earlier. If you came in, the tape would have been floating around, right?”
At Zia’s words, I quietly looked at my clothes.
What are you doing? It really sticks. That gas… Is this hectic military operation a smokescreen? I don’t think that’s the case… Anyway, it’s quite clever. Are you familiar with the conditions for transparency?
“Whether that person is present or not, I don’t really want to talk about it behind his back.”
“Huh. Just because you don’t want to do it doesn’t mean you have no complaints?”
“I have no complaints. Don’t keep asking questions.”
“Ah. Why? Just tell my younger brother. What’s going on? I need to know that, so I can respond as well.”
“There are other people besides you. Stop whining.”
“Sister, do you like that oppa?”
“Choi Ji-ah. What are you talking about?”
“Aha. Is that right? Somehow… I got the idea when I saw that you weren’t going to talk behind my back.”
“It’s not like that. Just be quiet.”
“No? Really? Then can I like you?”
“What do you mean by that?”
“No. He told me to generously take the coins. He also told me to bring him too. And he said he has the ability? Plus, he’s young and looks good enough. How common are men like that in this world?”
“Ha. Let’s talk about that later. I’m working right now.”
“That’s right. If you keep saying things like that, Yunseo will be sad.”
“Why is my story mentioned there?”
Songi and Yunseo’s voices. What does this mean?
“Yoonseo, don’t you have that person in mind?”
“No, you suddenly said something like that… Isn’t that right? Don’t misunderstand!”
“Really? Hmm. I like that person.”
“Ugh. Did Songi already predict this?”
“Well, it’s not that bad. Could it be that he likes an older woman like me? We just have fun together.”
“Oh my… Is this an adult conversation? The level suddenly rises!”
“What do you think? It’s a world where you can’t even get pregnant anymore. I enjoy it to the fullest while I can.”
“Wow… Songi is hot.”
It feels like the story is suddenly falling into the mud.
Ugh. I shouldn’t be here. I should just go out again.
I think I’ll get dizzy if I keep going.
“Uh… Are you already in a relationship like that between Songi and the captain? How can this be? I can’t believe I’m one step too late.”
Even Jeonghyeon… Ugh. Getting out quickly is good for your mental health.
There is nothing normal about these women.
