Chapter 187

Creating a detour connection route by infiltrating the Alpha system was a brilliant idea but the feasibility was low .

However, Dr . Suresh had achieved that difficult task . It was something that could only be said to be great .

“Mr . Jun! You are a godsend!”

He hugged me with an elated expression .

I was wondering whether I should push him off by force but decided to leave him alone .

He was hitting my back while being happy for a while and then opened his mouth with a voice drowned in emotion .

“I was able to achieve the impossible thanks to you . ”

“Did it go well?”

“Perfectly . It is now possible to activate the reward system in the dungeon network we created . This is all thanks to Mr . Jun’s active role . ”

“Then can I ask why we didn’t receive proper information?”

Twitch .

Dr . Suresh’s body instantly stiffened . I felt him out without any certainty but it seems it was the bullseye .

“Wh, what are you talking about?”

He was a person that couldn’t act . The type that was a researcher to the bone . It was difficult to think that such a person used petty tricks .

“There were many weird aspects . There was the Mantis, and you never mentioned anything about entering inside the Alpha system . ”

As I silently confronted Dr . Suresh after saying so, he opened his mouth with a mumble .

“That is…… . ”

“I will speak from this point on . ”

President Wholshore appeared .

I tilted my head .

“You should be a busy person but you’re still here?”

The schedule of presidents should be organized to the minute . It has been several hours since I entered the dungeon so that means he just sat here for that amount of time .

There was almost no case of this happening unless it was a national disaster .

“It’s a vacation day you see . ”

He sat down on a sofa in the reception room .

As he signaled with his eyes to take a seat, I sat on the opposite side as if it couldn’t be helped .

The words of the president were simple . It wasn’t a completed system but because it was an unstable one .

On top of that, to trick the eyes of the Alpha system they were constantly changing the form of the dungeon randomly so not even they knew that much information .

The thing we saw was a concrete type building but it was sometimes a cave type and sometimes changing to a wide field type dungeon .



“Shouldn’t you have talked about that ahead of time? Is it because I might run away?”

“To be exact, it’s not because you might run away but because you might not cooperate . ”

“So that’s why you shoved me in and then see what happens . And you thought that we wouldn’t be able to leave if you closed up the dungeon . ”

Edward said .

I got a moderate understanding of the picture now . To put it simply, sweet talk me into it and then get me in the dungeon .

Whether I fight the Alpha system or not its attention would turn towards me and the research team would create a detour route in that time .

In any case, I just had to stall for time so they would have had time while I was doing my utmost to survive .

If there was a problem, it would be that they didn’t have the Escape Scroll .

I lightly grinded my teeth .

So they’re backstabbing me when I showed them such goodwill .

“So it means it didn’t matter whether I died or not . ”

“That’s not true . A special task force was waiting to rescue you if it got dangerous . Only, we used such an extreme measure as Mr . Jun was our only hope . I do feel sorry about that . ”

As he finished his words, the reception room door opened and Jane Gray entered .

In other words, they were planning on sending in the team that girl leads .

In the first place that would be useless once I entered the Alpha system .

On top of that, for it to be Jane Gray .

“To be brutally frank, a level 8 hunter would merely be a distraction . I might be able to trust you if it had been level 10 hunters that were on standby . ”

“Level 10 hunters don’t move for these things . ”

“Not even on the American president’s orders?”

I said so in a sarcastic manner on purpose . Of course that’s not different just because one is Korean . Level 10 means those that have reached the pinnacle as a human . Even if it was the president that was the power of the secular world, they wouldn’t move .

They would never move unless they received an appropriate reward .

However, if they had the money to move me, they would have the money to move them as well .

He continued his words as if he knew my suspicion .

“This isn’t the first time this was attempted . ”

“In other words…… . ”

“A large number of level 10 hunters were deployed and the majority of them died . I apologize once more for making you do such a dangerous job without a proper explanation . I am planning on giving you a proper compensation for that . ”

There was a sincerely sorry look on president Wholshore’s face .

I almost accepted it just like that .



As expected, it was acting miles away from Dr . Suresh . Certainly, one would only be able to become the president of America by having such skills .

“It’s not a problem to gloss over so easily . ”

“I understand . It’s fine to ask as much compensation as you want to . ”

“Whatever?”

“As long as it’s within my abilities . ”

The American president’s abilities you say .

I didn’t know how much that was but it shouldn’t be small .

I nodded my head for now .

“Well, I’ll think about it for now . ”

“Thank you for understanding . I will mention once more that we have truly prepared all we could against the unforeseen danger . Mr . Jun is an existence needed from America’s perspective after all . ”

How infallible .

“I want to have some rest but is there a place?”


“I will take measures so that you are able to return to the safehouse . We will proceed immediately once negotiations for the space expansion are complete . ”

“I will be waiting . ”

“Right . There’s also one more proposal . ”

President Wholshore opened his mouth as if passing by .

“How about staying in America at this chance? Korea would be a good place to live as well but we can treat you like a state guest if you stay . ”

“I’m not sure . I will have to think about that a bit more . ”

I was wondering why this talk wasn’t coming out .

I shook my head for now . The proposal itself wasn’t bad . It was true that there was no particular need to stay on Korean land after all .

However, there were too many people that weighed on my mind .

Also, as if he had thought to that point, President Wholshore continued his words .

“If you have any relatives or acquaintances, we will provide permanent residency to all of them . We can do it for many people so you do not have to worry about that . ”

Makes one waver .

As expected, the seat of president of America really isn’t obtained by playing GoStop .

***

I called An Gyu-bum immediately after returning to the safe house .

“Is the negotiation going well?”



[It’s proceeding without problem . There were some differing opinions on future aid but it’s being finalized . ]

“Yeah? How much has it been concluded to?”

[100b for 20 cubits . ]

“Raise it to twice that amount for now . ”

[What?]

I could hear An Gyu-bum’s flustered expression from over the phone .

It was fun seeing such a figure . I was the only one getting done in you see .

“Didn’t you hear me? Raise it to double . ”

[Wh, why are you suddenly like that? Negotiations might break off . ]

“It doesn’t matter . Even if it breaks off it wouldn’t be my fault . ”

[……Did something happen?]

“A matter that you don’t need to know about . ”

[I don’t know what that is but a negotiation isn’t something that can be flipped so easily . So calm down for now and let’s go with 100b…… . ]

“Double . No negotiation . If they don’t accept it say that I’m leaving . ”

[Damn it…… You crazy bastard! Do you know how much effort I put in to achieve this!!]

An Gyu-bum suddenly shouted .

Oh ho . Look at this .

“Do you want to be fired?”

[Haha . Please pretend you never heard that just now . 200b is fine right? Dear customer?]

“Yeah . Report it until tomorrow and make it as if nothing happened if it doesn’t work . ”

Beep .

I ended the call and lied down against the sofa .

Thinking about the reaction from here and there a smile appeared on my face unconsciously .

You shouldn’t have done it .

Edward opened his mouth while clicking his tongue .

“I knew that you didn’t have a good personality . But I didn’t know you were rash to that degree . ”

“One should pay the appropriate price for tricking someone . ”

“What are you planning on doing if the negotiation actually breaks down? Even if the president works from behind, it’s still a civilian contract . Do you think it will actually work?”

“I have nothing to lose . That side is the one that loses . That chump change doesn’t matter . It’s not like I have nothing to earn money with . And you can’t be surprised with just this much . I still have more to get . ”

“What more are you going to do . ”

“I’m not sure . I’m thinking for now . ”

“Isn’t money not that important in the first place? I think there are many enemies you have to face though . ”

“I just have to think about that then . Besides, it’s not for certain . There’s no need to trust everything the president said . ”

The Alpha system was created in our country . Also, Lee Hui-seung is deeply connected to it .

These two facts certainly had credibility to it . However, it wasn’t like there was definite evidence . If there was evidence President Wholshore would have shown me .

If he could convince me to stay in America, there would be nothing better after all .

It might have been something that was said to make me leave Korea after feeling threatened by Lee Hui-seung .

Cross checking facts is a necessity though .

The problem is about how I will figure that out in Korea .

For now, as long as the Alpha system treats me as an enemy, they will try to approach in any method possible . Since they found me within the system they might feel greater threat .

I have no idea how I ended up at this point .

I just had to live moderately well but I had succeeded too much .

Delta that was the cause of all this never tried to approach me after the Red Hole incident .

It did seem like he handed me the Mystic Dungeon in hopes that I would replace the original dungeons with Red Holes but I hadn’t even activated that at the moment .

There were problems here and there but they have been somewhat solved so the problem to face now was the Red Hole .

Level 8 dungeons were deleted and I could erase level 9 dungeons with the reward points I currently had . That would mean that the dungeons in the entire world would disappear .

There was already chaos all over the world .

The rare earth metals that were being supplied had been cut off and the price of industrial products was skyrocketing because of that . Ores were somehow being supplied by the islands such as the Yellow Sea .

America accessing the reward system was probably to recover the falling rare earth metal supply rate .

However, the number of dungeons in the underground laboratory was merely in the dozens . It was impossible to replace all the dungeons that disappeared with just that .

They would somehow work it out as time passes but it would be difficult to handle the social chaos until then .

I had to open Red Holes no matter how I thought about it .

“The problem is that they’re too dangerous . ”

To the people that were familiar with the original dungeons, Red Holes were no different to ant nests . The level of the monsters that appeared were high and there were many of them as well . On top of that, they had to complete a certain quest to clear it and the dungeon boss was far too powerful compared to the dungeon level .

If these matters that require attention aren’t familiarized, it can’t be helped that a large scale death parade will occur .

I have heard that the number of people that died in one day when I opened it numbered 3 digits in our country alone . If that was increased to the entire world it might reach several tens of thousands . In just a single day too .
