Chapter 362 – 362. Training Ground 2
Watching what you have done.
I don’t know if it’s something to be proud of, something to be proud of, something confident and beautiful, but if it’s something dirty and ugly, it’s not easy to face it.
But I watch.
Because I definitely feel responsible for what I did.
Even though it wasn’t a good thing, I don’t avoid it or ignore it.
Constantly feeling remorse while looking at what I have done. Living with guilt. That is my duty.
Of course… Although this is also a kind of disgusting self-justification.
Choi Shin-young is sitting in the artificial garden in the center of the bunker, staring blankly at the plants.
Lifeless eyes, unmotivated expression.
A woman who was imprisoned in this underground room after seeing her relatives murdered, and other people massacred before her eyes.
I understand that too. Still, I don’t commit suicide. I guess the core is weak.
Are you thinking of revenge? But there is no way. Because will and ability are not always directly proportional.
Okay. Let’s say Choi Shin-young is like that.
The most surprising one is Ko Seong-yeon.
Director Choi’s wife. She might be in her mid-30s, but she takes good care of herself, so it’s safe to say she’s in her mid-to-late 20s.
She is exercising. She acted as if nothing had happened.
It seems like nothing has changed in that woman’s daily life. No, if she says it’s different, does that mean she has to take care of her own meals?
There doesn’t seem to be anything else to it. No matter how many times she watched it, she didn’t break the routine.
She exercises, reads a book, searches for a way to escape, and then falls asleep.
There is no conversation with Choi Shin-young. The two are in the same space but do not interact with each other.
Just like cows and chickens, they do not invade each other’s territory and live their own lives. A truly strange relationship.
Moreover, Goseong-yeon always decorates herself before going to bed.
She puts on her makeup carefully, puts on the clothes she likes, and looks in the mirror.
She even took pictures. She puts it in its best condition and then takes it off again.
When she is naked without any makeup, I feel a little admiration.
Really… She is an amazing woman. What is that woman thinking?
Plural? Escape? I don’t know.
I was more curious about this woman than Choi Shin-young, who had let go of her will to live and was just sitting under the fake sunlight.
Interesting. I really don’t think I’ll be able to understand the creature called a woman even if I die.
Anyway, after the meditation, I came back to earth.
It really is in bad taste. Am I really normal? No way. It could be normal.
I jumped out and took a look around Daeho’s workplace.
Many of the people I had seen from time to time disappeared. No, I guess it has almost disappeared.
He was probably killed or ran away. Because the shield called Daeho that protected them has disappeared.
Suwon is almost over now. It seemed like there were a few people on the Smart Farm side, but when I looked, they were on the SG side.
And even that is being moved. Probably going to Cheonan?
Well, from SG’s perspective, Suwon is far away. It would be better for him to move to nearby Cheonan.
Cheonan will become Seo Min-jun’s new home.
A new ship he created himself. Then what about Cheongju? What will happen?
I used teleportation and went to Cheongju.
SG Center still sees quite a few people.
They don’t know about regression yet. Therefore, there are still many people who want to use the SG Center.
Of course, since I have reduced it significantly, the number of repeat visitors will decrease significantly.
But it will become apparent a little later. It will not decrease immediately.
I thought their numbers would decrease once the regression became known.
However… When will they be able to acquire the sixth skill?
And even if they do, will they try to do something in return against SG?
Wouldn’t he be captured by SG and turned into a return shuttle or killed?
When I think about it that way, I think this place could last longer than I thought.
I think I would do the same if I were Seo Min-jun. I won’t destroy it with my own hands right away. I don’t want to operate it until I can.
Well, that’s not something I care about. I’ll take care of it.
And now all that’s left of the Royal Club is… Guilin, BFV, Lete.
Jeonbuk, Gangwon and Busan, respectively.
But Lete said it was trade, right? Well, I guess there’s a place that’s connected to there after all.
It must be Japan after all? I think Japan is not an easy place either.
Like Seoul, it is a densely populated metropolitan area. It’s the perfect place to kill people and grow.
Moreover, it is the eastern end of the continent. Besides, it’s an island.
The best land to do something. Once things are organized on their own, it is easy to advance.
Above all, I think Japanese kids are familiar with this system.
Games, comics, novels… These guys are already good at using their imagination to create something.
But I’m not too worried. What can they say… Imagination and creativity are good, but I don’t feel like I’m very strong.
It was like that even before the world fell.
They are people who dig and have fun, but they are not people who are good at competing in games or anything like that.
Well, there is no guarantee that that will still be the case.
Anyway, that’s it.
There is only one body, but there is so much to do.
I think there is probably no one absolute strong person in this world.
It’s too wide to do something alone.
The guys walking around in front of the SG Center is a bit appetizing, but that’s enough. For now, let’s do what we need to do first.
First, we have to create a place where Seunghee, Mina, and Anna can train.
I used teleportation home. First, let’s find out a good place nearby.
It flew into the sky and rose a little higher.
And take a look around the surrounding mountains. The place I’m looking for is a basin surrounded by mountains.
It is important to have a place that can block sound and sight from lightning and explosions.
Belch. It was bigger than you thought, right? Of course, when the skill level is low, there won’t be that much of an explosion sound, right?
Still, you have to choose carefully. Otherwise, it will be like advertising to people around the neighborhood that we are here.
First, I found a place I liked. The distance is only a 3-minute flight.
Ompok Pine village surrounded by mountains. Good. So, let’s use this as a standard and explore the surroundings.
Search with a radius of 310 meters. In terms of diameter, it is 620 meters.
If you think about it, it’s huge. Thanks to this, it is incredibly good for looking around.
How long will this range-increasing passive be available? Will you get to 10?
Let’s see if it gets to 10… 7 is 380 meters, 8 is 460 meters, 9 is 550 meters, and 10 is 650 meters.
Ugh. Even if you detect a presence, you won’t even be able to see it. 650 meters. Ugh.
Anyway, the scope is still wide, so navigation is easy.
Using my current location as a reference, I went around in a spiral pattern and looked around everything within a 5-kilometer radius.
As expected, there is no sign of it. It’s really nice not to feel anything. Because it means there is no threat.
Then it became a temporary training ground. If something like a slightly bigger attack skill comes out later, it won’t be as big as this.
Of course, I like places like islands. Should we give it a try? But, where do we go?
I took out my smartphone and opened the map that Jinyoung had installed.
I like this too. Paper books are definitely inconvenient. No matter how much storage there is, inconvenience is inevitable.
Moreover, the map becomes this. Measure the distance. Being able to know what the distance is even with a rough guess is incredible.
After floating in the air and looking at the map for a while, I thought I was so stupid.
Why am I shivering in the cold like this? Pathetic! Really.
I went down to the ground, came to a place where I could block the wind, and started looking at the map again.
And I found out something unexpected. I had a vague idea, but when I looked at the map, I knew for sure.
The Shandong Peninsula and Korea are closer than you think!
No, our country’s mainland is far away, but there is a westernmost island. A very familiar island name. Baengnyeong Island.
And there are two more islands below it. Daecheongdo and Socheongdo.
I was wondering where I had heard of it, and I think I saw it on a wild variety show there before. I think I just fell behind.
Anyway, Baengnyeongdo is a familiar name. And it is less than 200 kilometers from here to the end of the Shandong Peninsula.
Wow. Four hours. It will be much cheaper if you use Blink.
It’s not bad. It feels like a forward basis.
I guess I should go give it a try. Geographically it’s the best. The problem is… There is no save point right now.
I think I need to master teleportation before going. There isn’t much left anyway. Today? Tomorrow? Since I’m talking about it, I have to do it now.
A lot of things were sorted out, so I started to have some free time.
It was a particularly long winter. Are you feeling a little free now?
But winter is almost over. Now, mid-February is almost over.
Of course, it will still be cold even in March, but it still feels different.
Even if the cold remains, March is spring. I like to think so.
It was too annoying to teleport outside, so I headed to the bunker to change the save location to the room.
But Anna is still outside. Her. Are you eager? Why are you still outside?
“Anna.”
“Are you here? You came early.”
“It wasn’t that busy today. By the way, aren’t you in yet?”
“It’s because it’s fun to write this. Invisibility and flight are fun to write if you just had to repeat them pointlessly to become skilled.”
“Really? I’ve never used attack skills before, so I’m not sure. I’m honestly not confident in non-targeting skills like this.”
“That’s why I’m practicing. Even if I use a skill, it’s meaningless if I can’t get it right, right?”
At the same time, Anna muttered briefly.
“Wind.”
The invisible blade of wind strikes the center of the drum.
I’ve only been out for a short time, but the paint in the center of the drum has already peeled off and is slightly torn.
“Oh? I guess you got intermediate level?”
“Of course. About 250 times will be quick.”
Now that I think about it, there is a shopping bag containing a potion at my feet.
I’m glad Anna didn’t get very motion sick from the potion. It is probably possible to grow much faster than Seunghee, Mina, or SeAH.
If you think about it, it’s a funny world.
Even if you choose your skills well, use your brain to survive among people, and are lucky enough to have lived without any problems so far, in the end, it comes down to whether or not you receive the potion.
There doesn’t seem to be any way to do that.
Because it’s like the amount of alcohol consumed.
No matter how much you drink and try to increase your drinking capacity, you will only end up with an upset stomach.
You can’t beat someone who drinks well to begin with. The same goes for this.
In that respect, Anna is blessed. Although we started a lot late, we can catch up.
Your constitution, effort, and motivation.
Anna’s revenge hasn’t even begun yet. That’s why she may be able to practice her skills while having fun like this.
“Don’t be too hasty.”
Although I left out her subject quite a bit, Anna understood what I meant.
She looks at me and gives that bright smile of her courtesy.
A smile that warms the cold late winter air.
“I have something I want to do.”
“What is it?”
I felt a little excited by Anna’s words.
It is true that I had some naughty thoughts inside.
I imagine that beautiful woman taking off her clothes and hugging me, looking at me.
Of course, it doesn’t end with just imagination. She is a woman you can hug anytime
And a woman who can happily roll around naked with each other and laugh.
“This skill… I want to try it myself.”
A little different from what I expected.
Anna’s words are actually huge words. A story about wanting to kill people with skills.
However, I have already completely assimilated into this ruined world and have no particular feelings of resistance.
I just think about how to make it possible to meet her request.
“Do you want to?”
“I don’t want to hesitate at an important moment. I have to throw away what I have to throw away before that. Is it a weakness or hesitation?”
“That’s a good attitude. Then let’s go dressed a little more securely. If we’re going to fly, we need to dress warmer.”
No matter what, there is no excuse for killing someone.
But I don’t care. It’s already too late to question that.
I went into the bunker and spoke to Seunghee, Mina, and Se-ah who were skilled.
“Anna, I’m coming with her to see her in action.”
The three people are slightly surprised by those words.
It’s different from killing the people I brought coins with.
That’s just execution. But now it’s hunting.
The moment when you change from a passive position to an active one.
The first hunt of a baby bird, which has been receiving food from its mother bird, leaving the nest for the first time to catch food.
Seunghee stands up and hugs Anna tightly.
“Have a nice trip. Don’t get hurt.”
And Mina also hugs Anna.
Anna smiled and hugged Seunghee and Mina as well. Se-ah comes up to me and kicks my calf with her foot.
“Take care of Anna. Don’t let anything happen to her.”
There is no need to answer. I grinned at Se-Ah.
“Funny. Gross. My brother takes care of himself.”
Anyway, I always say things like that. You suck. A topic I am more worried about than anyone else.
