“Does this make sense?”
The more Humphreys’ commander, Daniel, learned about the survival group in Sejong City, the more he was astonished.
Gathering information about the residence was not very difficult. The people living there had a fairly free atmosphere and were not very wary.
The supply of electricity, communication, and water supply, as well as strange shops, were being operated.
In addition, Humphreys people were allowed to use the store freely.
Through reconnaissance by Lieutenant Colonel Taylor Smith, it was also revealed that Baek Seol-hwa’s words were true.
After that, Humphreys’ people now leave only the minimum number of troops, and most of them were being put into monster hunting in Cheongju to save magic stones.
I figured out why they wanted the magic stone to some extent.
The electricity and water they use is supplied using magic stones.
Besides, the shops in that building called the Uno shopping district.
The objects of Over Technology looked unusual.
What’s even more absurd.
It is said that all of this was accomplished by Park Un-ho, the mysterious leader who went somewhere and has not yet returned.
At this point, Daniel couldn’t help but be curious about his identity.
“Wilter, do you think this makes sense? I’m even thinking he might be an alien. Or is there a huge force behind him?”
“Whether he’s an alien or a minion of a huge power, it’s clear that he’s helping us now.”
“They told me to find out more about the leader…More than that, how could we not get that generator and water supply system?”
The number of people at Camp Humphreys is considerable.
At least now, hunting in Cheongju and begging from the Sejong survival group? Although the situation got a little better as we went along, it still couldn’t be said that the supply of food or drinking water was smooth.
“Their benevolent disposition makes them worth talking about.”
“Prepare a place with that woman named Snow White.”
“All right.”
Following Daniel’s instructions, Adjutant Walter contacted the group of survivors and quickly arranged a place with Snow White.
“Did you say you want to get a magic attribute generator and a water supply system?”
“Yes, it is.”
Daniel responded politely to Snow White.
He was her first encounter with her.
I heard that Taylor was young, but he looked much younger than expected.
Even so, it was the same as managing a group of survivors, so she couldn’t be bothered.
At Daniel’s request, Snow White remained silent.
‘Was that an unreasonable demand?’
There is no change in her expression.
What she was thinking was unpredictable.
Daniel and Walter nervously waited for her mouth to open.
It wasn’t a long silence.
Snow White’s mouth opened.
“It seems like it’s something I can’t decide on my own. I’ll ask you and tell you.”
“He-were you able to contact him?”
“Yes. You are far away, but we can contact you.”

It wasn’t that difficult to organize the living quarters.
It was because all I had to do was put things that looked useless into my inventory and get rid of them.
I made a moderate amount of space and placed my luxurious bed on one side.
You could use the Hero’s Rest, though.
In the sanctuary, you can’t know the situation outside.
In the meantime, it would be difficult if Grace came to visit.
He said he would call me when it was time to eat dinner.
In the meantime, I lay down on the bed to pass the time.
I blankly stared at the old wooden ceiling.
‘Isn’t this leaking?’
Although the rainy season has passed.
By coming this far, the physical strengthening skill had risen to level 8.
He was as tall as an eye, and now the magical power core nestled in his heart had grown to the point of approaching the size of his heart.
And 72 extra skill points were collected.
It was undeniable that Ignis and Sunni’s credit for accumulating this quickly was huge.
If it wasn’t for them, it would have taken a lot longer.
Of course, I flew all the way here from Alaska and hunted steadily.
In Canada, they also caught one top-notch carnivorous fish. At that time, the top-notch corrosive fish caught was a huge deer.
At this rate, it seemed that it wouldn’t take long until the next strengthening level.
「Baekseolhwa: Prince Nang. Is the time okay?”
A message from Seolhwa appeared in my vision.
「Unho: It’s okay.」
「Baekseolhwa: Prince Nang. We hope to purchase a magic attribute generator and water supply system from Humphreys Camp.”
「Unho: Do as you wish with the magic attribute generator, and there is no spare for the water supply device right now, so tell them to wait.」
“Snow White: Yes, I understand. Husband. Thank you for your time.”
I have a few extra magic attribute generators.
However, in order to create a water generating device, Albert in Pantera must bring a spirit stone to solve the problem.
You have to go to Pantera and spend at least one month to see results.
Of course, I had no intention of doing that now.
‘I’m not in a hurry…’
Accumulating skill points is more important now.
-Smart.
After a brief meeting with the raid message, a knock was heard on the door.
It’s probably a sign that dinner is ready.
When I opened the door, I saw a familiar face that is hard to forget.
A beauty with dark brown hair and light green eyes.
She was carrie
She was smiling as if her mood had been relieved since she had fought with Philip.
“You should have dinner.”
It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t eat, but she couldn’t refuse Beauty’s invitation.
“I’ve prepared a welcome party.”
Carrie seemed a little excited.
“Welcome party?”
When I left the house, I saw a large campfire in the middle of the clearing.
People gathered around it and chatted.
While I was inside the house, it seemed that the outside was a bit cluttered… It seemed that they had prepared something like this.
“Are these all?”
After a rough count, it was a small group of less than 30 people.
“Yeah…How old is it?”
Carrie said with a bitter smile.
As I approached the place with Carrie, the son-in-law suddenly became quiet and turned his attention to me.
Grace approached with a smile.
Then he stood next to me and spoke to people.
“You must have heard the story, right? This is Mr. Park Woon-ho. Today I had a pretty dangerous moment, and you saved me. You joined our group.”
– Clap clap clap.
People clapped.
Looking at his expression… He didn’t seem to dislike it that much.
Except for one Philip.
(He’s incredibly tall…Was he a football player? He seems trustworthy to be on our side.)
(Oh my, look at those muscles.)
(That tall, he looks like an Asian… But is he really an Asian?)
(A psychic? Isn’t he a good person since Grace brought him?)
I could hear people talking about me in whispers.
A middle-aged man of 190 cm tall with a wiry beard approached.
“His name is Richard Cohen.”
“Richard is a psychic like us.”
Said Grace.
It looked like a reinforcement system.
(Wow…That’s really big. Standing together makes Richard look like a kid.)
(Standing next to that person, everyone would look like children.)
Even if it was a welcome party, it wasn’t grandiose.
All you do is light a campfire, sit around it, talk moderately, and eat together.
I also sat on a log that had been properly cut and laid out on the floor, watching a large campfire and eating well-roasted fish.
I don’t know what kind of bite it is.
It was seasoned like salt and pepper, so the taste itself was not bad.
Looking at the freshness, it seemed like it was caught in the lake.
Seeing that I was the only one holding a whole fish, it seemed that he was serving it.
There were also a few kids playing happily.
It seemed to be glancing at me, but fortunately it didn’t try to come closer to me.
Still, we must be careful not to look down on humans as animals of adaptation.
It was difficult to become like the children of Sejong City.
“Everyone has been locked up here for months. Horses must be very frustrated inside. Just that you’ve just joined the new team is enough to lift the mood like this.”
Carrie, who was next to her, said as if complaining.
“I was also frustrated and wanted to go out at least, but Philip is desperately blocking it. That’s why…”
She pauses for a moment and looks at me.
It seemed that he wanted to ask me something.
“Perhaps Unho is a psychic, so he will go out to supply supplies. Could you take me with you then?”
It wasn’t such a tough request.
“I can take you, but…”
“Oh, really! Yay!”
She hugged my neck and liked it.
Is this something you would love to do?
Of course I liked it.
It was an unexpected hug from a beautiful woman.
“But even if I wanted to take him, I don’t think it would be easy…?”
It was obvious that Siscon Phillip would object.
“Don’t worry! In the meantime, no one even offered to take me. It’s because of that nasty Phillip! If Unho allows me, I’ll take care of the rest.”
He said that he had been locked up here for several months, and he seemed to want to do something to see the outside.
I don’t see anything like that…
I saw Grace chatting with people in the distance.
“Are you interested in Grace?”
Carrie asked.
“Okay.”
She is not even an elementary school student, so there was no reason to hide it, and she answered honestly.
I came all this way because of her.
“Oh…My…Poor Philip.”
Carrie seemed to know Philip’s feelings for Grace too. However, rather than feeling sorry for her, she had a mischievous smile on her face.
“How is it, does Grace have a boyfriend?”
I asked Carrie a question that Nome Phillip ignored.
“No.”
I thought I could sit here a little longer.
