Chapter 707 – 707. Regular Meeting 2
[Don’t do this. Evans.]
[He did everything he could and then told me not to do this to him. It’s also shameless.]
[Ha. That’s right. I am shameless. It is true that you have also committed many sins. So don’t make me do any more mistakes. Evans.]
[No. I don’t care what crime you commit. After all, there is only one crime left for you to commit against me.]
Powell’s expression as he looks at Chloe Evans is full of guilt.
It’s very surprising. If you’re in a situation like that, shouldn’t there be no blood or tears?
[Kill. Kill him quickly with your own hands. What more do you plan to do by keeping me alive? Do you still have any insults left for me?]
[Ha. How on earth did you know my last name? For sure…]
[The way you handle things is always like that. Have you ever done anything right?]
[Don’t do that. Evans. I’m not mad at you for that.]
[If I attack you, will you kill me?]
And Evans suddenly tries to attack Powell. But Powell was faster.
She is a woman who collapses on the spot. Powell took it and hugged her as if she knew it would happen.
What was it? He didn’t open his mouth and didn’t show any signs of doing anything.
Faint? Sleep? Did you make it passive?
Anyway, Powell, holding the fallen Evans, opened the gate.
And he lays her down at her house in Evans.
The guy who laid the woman down on the bed looked at her for a moment and then climbed through the gate again.
And the guy who presses the elevator.
I sigh softly as the elevator on the top floor comes down.
Am I weak? Or is that woman just that special?
I don’t know. Why are you keeping me alive? And so does that woman.
Isn’t it enough to hold a grudge like that?
Did I read my memory too roughly?
This is the problem with memory reading. Reading is not everything.
It takes too much time to read it thoroughly, and if you read it roughly, you end up not understanding a lot of things.
When should I read it again? But I’m not really interested in what happens between the two.
Just… Can I use that relationship or not? That’s all.
Could he charm Evans and use it to beat Powell? But if you are in the same situation as before, there is nothing to do or take advantage of.
As soon as he showed signs of attacking, he was suppressed… It has no meaning.
Powell took the elevator to the top floor.
Jason and Rachel in the room just react indifferently when they see Powell coming in.
Ah. Now is your chance.
If only I could go out now, use the skill-free zone, and catch all three at once… There is nothing better than that.
[Stay back too much. Powell, ]
[Noisy. Even if it’s you, Jason, I won’t hear anything about her.]
[Yes. Yes. Wouldn’t it be cool?]
[Don’t say unnecessary things. Now let’s have a ‘real regular meeting’.]
Powell sits down and Jason and Rachel look at him.
Subtle atmosphere.
Okay. This is the part I don’t understand the most.
What are these three going to do? In the end, at the end of this world, only one person remains.
At least, if one of these three is aiming for it, the other two must be killed.
What is it with these guys that they don’t hesitate to show themselves in front of each other like this?
[Isn’t Protocol 666 too hasty? I think there is someone behind that unknown guy.]
Jason’s tone contained a reprimand for Powell.
But isn’t that saying it too openly? Is he that flawless?
[Are you saying the same thing as Matthew? You believe something like level 50?]
[Well. I don’t know if it’s level 50 or not. But it doesn’t make sense, does it? That apostle in Hawaii is not meant for combat. At best, it’s a dragon that beats up civilians. No matter how much those guys join forces, they can’t beat someone who learned Q&A.]
[Well. Just because you have learned a lot of skills doesn’t mean you will become a perfect human being. This may have been the first time I experienced that kind of joint attack.]
[And even so, Protocol 666 is too early. Why are you in such a hurry? Do you want to be the last one standing as soon as possible?]
[Not really… It’s not like that. I just don’t feel the need to drag it out. Anyway, it has nothing to do with you, right? Because you learned state regression.]
[Okay. Return to that state. Since that’s the case, wouldn’t it be a bad idea to just wait until everyone grows old and dies? Why are you in a hurry? Do you want to kill me and Rachel so quickly?]
[Do not do that. Jason. I have no feelings for you. Evans and you too. Everyone is being so harsh to me. Am I going to live this lonely life?]
[If there is nothing special about the meeting, can I go back?]
Powell and Jason fell silent at Rachel’s words. A conference room filled with silence again.
The relationship between the three seems a bit complicated.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a normal, dry relationship.
It’s not just a collaboration or business relationship. Something… Do you feel like you have a love problem?
I think I know why ladies watch morning dramas.
It’s an obvious and cliché story, but there’s no relationship better than this to arouse curiosity, right?
Two men and one woman. Hey…
[It’s a meeting. Yes. Okay. Let’s have a meeting. I hope you two will stop playing around and cooperate in reducing the population. There is no longer any need to monitor subordinates.
[Are you coming forward too?]
[Shouldn’t that be the case? It is more efficient for us to take action ourselves. It’s difficult for them alone to accomplish something within a month.]
[You are finally moving that heavy butt yourself.]
[That’s right. It would have been nice if our friends on the committee had made things a little easier. In the end, I have to step forward myself.]
[Where do you plan to go?]
[South America.]
When Powell spoke, Jason thought for a moment and then answered right away.
[Then I will go to Asia.]
[Matthew and Jason are together… The people I travel with must have a hard time.]
[No. The most blessed. Wouldn’t Reynolds, who will be with you, be in the most dire situation?]
[I can’t deny that. Ah. Rachel, please go to the Middle East. Are you more comfortable alone? Please go ahead and sort it out.]
To Powell’s words, Rachel just nodded her head slightly without any response.
[It’s sad that the ROF PROJECT was canceled. I wanted to see that scene in person.]
[That goes for me too. Too bad. It was a plan that took a lot of effort. It was such a crazy plan.]
Powell responds to Jason’s words with a smile.
At this moment, the two people look like mischievous kids.
But to be honest, I missed it too.
The volcanoes in the ring of fire explode all at once.
I wanted to see how crazy things humans could do once they had this ability.
[Can I use Q&A?]
[Did you plan on working without using it?]
[No. No way. But shouldn’t we wait a little longer?]
[Hmm. Well then, let’s watch for three more days. Everyone will have time to prepare anyway.]
[Okay. But can it be done in three days?]
[If there is someone behind it like you said, do you think someone who knows the effectiveness of Q&I could not ask a question for three days?]
[Hmm… It’s impossible. That’s not true. Good. Okay. Make it three days. 72 hours from now?]
[Yes.]
[People are going to die anyway, so it doesn’t matter if they use their own citizens as sacrifices, right?]
[It doesn’t matter.]
[Okay. Then… Is there anything more to say?]
[Nothing.]
[Good. Then… See you in a month.]
[Yes.]
When Jason said that, Rachel disappeared by teleportation.
And Jason, who saw that, also laughed and disappeared.
Finally, Powell, who remained in the empty conference room, also teleported again and appeared on the sea.
And this one flies towards one place.
Are you going on your own cruise? Then this is the Great Lakes, not the ocean. There’s nothing more to see.
Stop thinking about him and organize your thoughts.
Hmm… I gained a lot more than I expected. It was quite a rewarding spying.
First, once they start moving in earnest, the countdown to the world being completely ruined has begun.
One month. You said there would be less than 10% of humans left within a month, right?
Plus protocol 666? As for the name, really.
Anyway, the massacre of its own people will occur under the leadership of the US president.
The remaining humans on Earth will be wiped out directly by the scattered committee members and the three Grandmasters.
Among them, there were a few things I was curious about.
First, Powell knew how many people were left even without using Q&A.
There was no sign that he wrote a Q&A before the meeting. He didn’t go anywhere and slaughter 10,000 people.
That means he has a way of knowing that in real time.
A skill to know how many people are left.
It’s definitely a skill. Other than that, I can’t think of anything else.
The first thing that came to mind was the plague.
Plague. Mina’s skills.
If… What if there is a plague that has extremely strong transmission power and is completely harmless to the human body?
So what if people all over the world are already at stake? Then wouldn’t he be able to know how many people there are in total?
Also, there was a separate panel for the plague, right? Then it makes some sense.
However… I mean, I didn’t use any separate skills.
Or, there may be a separate skill.
Since we said we were looking for the last person left in the world, we need to know how many people are left.
Moreover, you can’t find out about it through Q&A every time. What if there are less than 10,000 people left later? You can’t use your skills then, right?
There is a high probability that it is a combination skill.
No way. Instead of directly asking about the number of humans remaining, I should have first asked whether they have such a skill.
The problem is, as they said, you can’t write Q&A for three days.
At best, he staged an unknown killing spree, but if he uses the skill now and reveals his true identity, it will be a sick sea anemone plankton amoeba.
They say you have to wait at least three days.
Well, that can wait as long as you want. That aside.
Powell, Jason, Rachel.
Losing three isn’t a good thing for me.
If possible, it is better to catch them while they are all in one place. When you let down your guard. Taking advantage of the gap.
If they get hit by even one, their vigilance will be heightened to the maximum.
Then it will be several times more difficult to deal with.
I’m just concerned about what they said when they broke up.
Powell and Jason said they would meet in a month. So, we’re saying we won’t see each other before then.
What if you kill both mice and birds in the meantime? Isn’t there a way to find out?
So, I’m saying that now is the best opportunity to defeat each one.
I’ll have to think about this a little more. We also have to look at their behavior.
And… There is another problem.
If you listen to what they say, there is a nuance that they cannot kill each other now.
What is it? It won’t be a simple promise.
It makes no sense that we can’t attack each other with promises that have no use for coercion.
Plus, if you look at the fact that Powell knocked out Evans… Everyone’s combat ability is already at its best.
In particular, Powell seems to have short-term vision.
Are they too strong to attack each other carelessly? That doesn’t make sense either.
If so, there must be some kind of enforceable restriction.
Is it a contract production? Did you at least write a contract?
I guess it’s like that. Otherwise, it is not easy to understand.
Anyway, it’s done. For now, all we can do is hold our breath and watch.
I don’t know when the trace will be lost, but the good news is that there is a high probability that they will stick around with the committee guys.
Except for that woman, Rachel.
Ah. If she can charm that girl, it will be much easier for her to catch the other two.
There’s no way something like charm would take effect. Things like marionettes are too limited.
Tsk. I can’t help it. I have no choice but to end it somehow using surprise attacks and ambushes, which are my specialties.
First, since there is still time, the priority is to make a short-term prediction first.
And… We need to check their weaknesses. A sure way to attack them.
I have to figure it out.
It would be nice to find out what skills they have while watching them slaughter ordinary people.
However… Don’t you have all the skills? I feel more at ease knowing that.
It’s fortunate that there is a seal and skill unusable zone combo.
At least so far, this combo hasn’t been broken.
However, if you only believe in this, it can become dangerous if it is destroyed, so you need to look into other methods.
Ha. There’s a lot to do. There is a lot to do.
The good news, though, is that it seems like it’ll just be resolved with those three people.
Unless someone like me suddenly appears out of nowhere.
