Chapter 249: Her Situation – 1
Chapter 249: Her Situation – 1
#1
The temporary base was about three hours from the airport.
It was pretty bumpy, but no one complained because the procession of those who took refuge along the way continued constantly.
-Do you have any injuries?
-It’s fine.
What’s that monster that transformed before?
-Blue Dragon, its divinity was scattered but don’t worry about it. It’s not worth using a 9-tier mana stone for.
-You mean you can’t use it again?
-No, you can use it again, but its remaining divinity was scraped and consumed, so I can’t use it like before. Even if you put a 9-tier mana stone inside it, it should only be as good as an 8 tier monster.
It’s pretty strong for a tier nine.
The size was similar to the Ogamushi, which was the one that he raided before.
Nevertheless, if the monster appeared from the ground, more than half of the people would not be able to escape their battle.
-It exploded after giving me some impact.
-The conclusion is that it’ll be pretty useless in the future.
-There are still quite a few saints who can only have the strength of a 9th tier. You can keep one of them. I mean, you could even if the cost is pretty bad.
-It’s not easy. I still struggled.
-Hoho, no.
While talking with Goongi, Jaehwang opened his status window. The letters that were written at the top then stood out.
Name: Chun Jaehwang Deity: 20,000,000 / 11,242,349
This was one of the reasons why he did this show today. The number is still rising steadily.
-It’s a bit bothersome to see.
20,000k/11,256k... 11,278... 11, 310
The status window was just a tool for making intuitive decisions.
101% ... 102% ... 104%
Being strong feels intuitive.
Feeling the divinity becoming harder, Jaehwang closed his eyes and enjoyed it.
It’s also new to be able to see what’s behind the world. How does it feel to scan the code behind the homepage that the programmer has neatly made? Jaehwang learned all of this with the remnants of the system, Save, which was still in his body along with his newly acquired half-god’s eyes.

“They have arrived.”
In the cautious voice of a man, Jaehwang slowly opened his eyes.
Because he was focusing on the system for a long time, he frowned at the visual information coming in at random.
In the distance, a huge building on a large rocky hill came in his sight.
“It must be a familiar.”
Kwon Je looked over the buildings with his curious eyes.
Then, one of the US troops who followed the guide nodded and answered, “Of course. That barrier was constructed with reference to the invincible’s outer wall structure. We find the worm monsters troubling, so it would make sense that we took note of what Invincible did.”
Kwon Je nodded at the guide’s explanation. Indeed, the walls of invincible were also deeply dug underground.
When viewed from the outside, it looked like a special concrete barrier that was about 40 meters high. One base was installed in accordance with a monster’s path if it did attack and for reference, the barrier was said to be able to complete a magic circle that a hunter could complete in case of emergencies.
Jaehwang’s beloved quadcopter, Atlas, slumped over a letter that appeared to have been made temporarily by the base that was said to be under maintenance by its mechanics. It was so huge that it couldn’t be contained by a helipad inside the base. As a temporary measure, they picked up the land outside the base and built a landing area which even seems cramped.
“I accidentally deployed a support vehicle near that landing and two of them flew in the wind.”
Irumi then asked, “Is anyone hurt?”
“I was lucky to have a healer nearby. It’s our fault. I sent the attention in advance at the martial arts house, but the maintenance crews, like the braids, approached FM and said...”
“I’m glad though.”
Atlas had no place to be in other than Invincible, so they would really need to produce something for it to just land.
At first glance, it resembles the UFO. Atlas, a monstrosity of nearly 120 meters, was not a simple flight board, thanks to its four rotors extending in all directions on its planetary body.
The Atlas was equipped with four separate mana-stone engines that use about two every month. Jaehwang blows billions of mana stones, which was not like a piece of chewing gum. Nevertheless, it was more likely to be disassembled again because of the sheer amount of energy it uses.
Simply speaking, it was equipped with four 30mm Gatling Cannons that use only the type of bullets that could easily smash a monster. It had that capacity even though it was originally designed just to provide support on its melee ground troops.
The maximum number of shots that it could do was 100,000.
Originally, the hatch of the bombing was converted to hold a sniper spear, and its left counterpart had a space for loading missiles. Jaehwang can only do so much with money. Note that the rail gun was 10 times more expensive than the Atlas as a whole. Although it had to sacrifice most of the space for just one, the rail gun was capable of shooting three rounds per minute that could silence 6th tier monsters in one shot.
It was a nasty aircraft that only the US could produce.
As they set foot on dry ground, they were waiting to meet Jaehwang.
“Welcome Master Archer!”
They were enthusiastically cheering as if they welcomed a dictator from a country in the past. Everyone saw Jaehwang’s greatness live.
In the distance, men dressed in lab coats rolled their eyes as if they were trying to dissect Jaehwang’s body. It was because of the fear that comes from the speculation of the superhuman. Irumi, Dongcheol, and people of the Martial Arts House who got off the car in advance were all excited about their enthusiastic cheers.
A woman with a group of hunters behind him approached Jaehwang.
“I’m Jane Cousins, Head of Site-1, Nevada.”
They thought that there would be a hard soldier in charge but surprisingly, the head of Site-1 was a woman.
The blonde’s hair was tied back, and it’s hot so her shirt was quite open. All eyes were on this Latino beauty with a youthful look. Irumi frowned near Jaehwang’s side.
She was quite a contrast to the cold Irumi, who was undisturbed in her clothes. Moreover, her eyes towards Jaehwang were passionate. Even if Jaehwang gives her a glimpse of his eyes, it looked like she’ll jump right on him.
But Irumi, who stared at Jaehwang, grinned a little.
Jaehwang does not care about the woman in front of her eyes, as usual, he has little attention to their surrounding geography. It was a far cry from the Kwon Je, who only keeps his eyes on whether Dongcheol or his body was keeping their eyes off of their chest.
“Jaehwang, I am the site director.”
It was only after Irumi called that Jaehwang turned his head and nodded.
“Nice to meet you. Jaehwang. ”
Jaehwang’s words were cold, but Jane bowed her head with a smile on her face.
“I am honored to have you here,” she responded with a seductive voice and looks up at Jaehwang with fiery eyes.
“May I ask for your guide?”
“Huh? Yes!”
Jane attached herself to Jaehwang and explained the facilities in the base one by one.
After a while...
“You can use this building. If you need anything, please tell me and we will do it right away.”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
“of course.”
When Jaehwang passed her, Jane, who lightly saluted, turned to gaze at Jaehwang with a look of regret.
“Jaehwang. Why are you so cold? Even if you don’t want it, we still need to go for a meal.”
As Jane Cousins disappeared, Dongcheol approached him quietly. At the question of Dongcheol, Irumi was also curious about Jaehwang. Aside from him being overworked, he seemed to be distracted a little.
Jaehwang looked around at Dongcheol’s questions and shook his head. Even Kwon Je didn’t seem to know what was up.
Jaehwang opened his mouth after a while. “It’s the Dragon’s sphere of influence.”
“What?”
At the end of Jaehwang’s words, everyone shook their head in curiosity.
Suddenly, the dragon came up out of nowhere. Why do dragons emerge from here that were at least hundreds of kilometers away?
Jaehwang decided to explain it by action rather than words and closed his eyes as he started to spread his mana. Jaehwang of the past could never do this but now, it was quite easy. The Chintamani Jewel was a mana collection stone of Mother Nature, it was clear and transparent than anything else in the world.
And Jaehwang, who absorbed the jewel, could now absorb the mana around him. The limit of its influence depends on his will, might it be to God’s Realm Beyond the Human Realm...
And only Kwon Je out of the ones here could notice it.
‘There you are.”
Jaehwang manipulated the golden aura with ease.
He touched it lightly and the mana itself responded to his own aggressively. They observed it eating his own.
*electric spark*
It then began to spark, creating a sense of conflict between its golden and reddish lights. Everyone who was watching this started jumping and the emergency alarm went off at the temporary base.
After several minutes, the opponent’s golden mana stopped its attack.
-Greetings, the soldier of humans.
-Greetings, a foreign world’s god.
Jaehwang responded in his head.
-Oh, you must have known something about me already.
-I heard about you from Baeklin.
-Hmm, you know Baeklin?
-Yes, he’s a friend.
-Hohoho... are you alright?
L’s mana didn’t give out a dangerous feel, her aura died down as soon as he mentioned Baeklin.
-It would have been nice to meet you in a more peaceful circumstance.
Since his opponent was a creature that had lived a very long time, Jaehwang decided to be respectful and also, if America didn’t mess up, she won’t be fighting Jaehwang in the first place.
-Yes and the same here, if I had not made some promises with creatures of my dimension, I wouldn’t be here to restore balance now.
-Being a god sounds like a stressful job.
-Hohoho... if anything else said that, I would have destroyed them at once, but I feel a similar fragrance between you and me.
L said in rather friendly tone. just by looking at their atmosphere, they looked like they would be sharing some tea
-You have four days left, you’re attacking me already?
-Nah, I was just getting curious.
-I see.
