Chapter 380
“huh.”
The second son of four sons and three daughters of the head of Lamlong Group. Lampeng.
The Lamlong Group’s monarchy, which made education for children a matter of survival of the fittest, led all brothers to be perceived as rivals and enemies.
In other words, except for Ram Hwa-jeong, who is her biological sister and has little interest in business, all of the other brothers do not have a good relationship with Ram Hwa-yeon.
In the meantime, the second son Lampeng, who was two years younger than the first daughter Ram Hwa-yeon, was the only brother with a neutral attitude among the other brothers except Ram Hwa-jeong.
“Peng.”
-Hao! What’s going on, my sister is calling me all the time?
“The person you brought in from the German hospital a while ago is Doctor Heinrich, right?”
-huh? What are you talking about all of a sudden? Is that why you didn’t even ask how I was doing?
“Isn’t there another world-renowned surgeon whose last name is Heinrich, who can handle major nerve and spine surgeries in Germany that cost over 2 billion won?”
-…doesn’t exist. How much trouble did you have to bring that person and all his staff? If you can say that much, isn’t the investigation already over?
The reason Ram Hwayeon frowned while listening to the story about the bridge below was not because disabled people were ugly.
This was because the keywords uttered by Lee Ha were clearly words and names he had heard at the executive meeting.
‘No way… the head of the department…’
Jacheong, who sat across from Ram Hwayeon, found it difficult to control his expression.
Being neutral does not mean getting along well. At least it only means that the relationship is close enough to do business.
In other words, if Lam Huayen asks for something, she must also grant Peng’s request!
‘No, it wouldn’t be a loss-making deal if we could completely make that Leeha one of our people – but you really want to say that –’
Jacheong’s hopeful worries became reality with Ram Hwayeon’s next words.
“Doctor Heinrich, give me the schedule. Paraplegic patient. I can’t feel anything below my waist and can’t move. Let’s schedule a detailed examination and then do it at the hospital.”
-Leeha! Didn’t I just tell you that I had a hard time bringing that person in? It is no exaggeration to say that he is currently the busiest person in the group hospital! There is a lot of research as well as treatment. In addition, we have to interact with doctors at mainland hospitals. I’m trying to manage Heinrich at the ‘party’ level, not at the level of our company, but no matter how much my sister says so—
“Peng.”
-What, what is it?
“First and foremost. catch. Let’s meet and talk about the rest.”
-Nu, sister- Nu-
Talkkak. Ram Hwayeon hung up the phone.
If Ram Hwayeon is in charge of discovering new businesses within the group, it is Peng that is carrying out the work in the medical field within the group.
“Volunteer.”
“Yes, Chief.”
“Please investigate whether there is anything Peng might ask for, any recent incidents that have been pointed out as problems in the group’s medical division, or any agenda items raised at executive meetings. Before arriving in Hong Kong.”
In terms of current position in the group, Lam Hwayeon is a few steps ahead of Peng.
Peng would never sit idly by and see Ram Hwayeon, who was ahead in the battle for succession, reach out to him first.
Ram Hwayeon also knew that well.
“All right.”
Without even looking at Jacheong, who bowed her head, Ram Hwayeon rested her chin and looked out the window.
“…’New Country’….”
Her relative, who heard that small muttering, chimed in from the side.
“It’s no big deal, sister.”
Ram Hwajeong snorted.
* * *
“Are you saying it’s really not a big deal?”
Sigh!
Shin Nara picked up the tteokbokki with chopsticks and ate it without even looking at the table.
Even though it was just picking up a piece of tteokbokki, it was a simple movement that made Ki-jeong admire it for a moment.
“I don’t know what you were thinking, but it wasn’t anything special, it was truly a ‘repayment’ meeting. Nara, you know what happened to the city where I was appointed lord of Seongju.”
“Yes, it’s me. It is a natural human duty! Look, I said it wouldn’t be a big deal, but then they suddenly did it like that.”
After Sister Lam left, Lee Ha explained with sincerity. Without even understanding exactly why he had to give this explanation.
As Bobae was right next to him, the momentum of the Xin Dynasty had significantly decreased compared to the first time.
“all right. I know that Lee Ha can’t act like a weak wolf like that-”
“Yes?”
“―Oh, no, anyway! Anyway, that’s it.”
What does that mean? Anyway, upon seeing Shin Nara stuttering in embarrassment, Lee Ha was finally able to sigh.
As the overall atmosphere became a little calmer, I was finally able to ask questions I was curious about.
“Then can I ask you something?”
This is something that has been on my mind from the beginning. The fact that there was a strong suspicion but no physical proof.
“What is it?”
“How is Nara and Bobae?”
“Wow, Wow! That’s right, that’s right! Did everyone see that? Hey, what is it? Middle Earth homepage! [Phase 3]!”
As soon as Iha could ask a question, Bobae waved both hands and took out her smartphone.
How did you get here?
Because Bo-bae was secretly communicating with Ki-jeong!
It is the same as before and now that thieves feel numb. Among the misfortunes, is it fortunate that we have now succeeded in diverting the attention of Lee Ha?
Lee Ha and Ki-jeong’s eyes widened at the word Phase 3.
“Phase 3?”
“You didn’t know, right? Kijeong didn’t know either, right?”
“Uh, yes. when?”
“Right before we left here, the community was in an uproar, so I looked and found this.”
Bobae quickly accessed the Middle Earth homepage and clicked on the newly updated notice and presented it to them.
The end is not the end. It will exceed the limit of 3.
“The end…isn’t the end?”
“Limit of 3? What do you mean?”
Lee Ha and Ki-jeong tilted their heads. Of the four, only Bobae, who was the first to hear this news, was able to unravel the information she had picked up.
“I think maybe Mr. Lee Ha can figure it out.”
“Me? Even looking at this now, I have no idea-”
“The most talked about thing in the community is literally the ‘limit of 3’, the story about lifting the level 300 cap!”
Wow! Bobae shouted, pointing his finger at Iha.
“Ah… you want me to ask Alexander?”
“yes. The end is not the end, that’s what it means. Max level is no longer max level.”
“Hmm, Alexander is quiet about things related to growth, so I think he probably won’t tell me, but… more than anything…” I
listened to Bo-bae, but I-ha was not satisfied.
‘That could be a… secret. But that can’t be the end.’
Haven’t you already experienced it through Phase 2?
By allowing one sentence to be incorporated here and there, Middle Earth deceived and misled users.
‘I thought the national game was the end, but in reality it wasn’t. If Phase 2 is now over, it means that my prediction was correct.’
Some sort of work related to the expedition to the New World must have been completed.
In other words, it was possible to infer that Fernand had reached a certain level of agreement in each country.
“Besides that, there was a lot of talk in the community. What are the limits of 3? What does it mean that the end is not the end?” “
Anyway, you have to experience it to know. There’s not much need for guessing in Middle Earth. Isn’t that right, Mr. Lee Ha?”
Shin Nara cut Bobae off as if asking what she was talking about.
“uh? yes. Yes. Because it’s a game that enjoys teasing users.”
When Lee Ha agreed, the corner of Nara’s mouth twitched.
“Mr. Lee Ha, do you have time?”
“It’s time… there is.”
“It’s already come to this, so play with us. Bobae, are you okay too?”
She took control of the atmosphere in an instant.
That gleeful look on their faces whenever they attack with the intention of destroying everything.
Of course, with Ki-jeong next to Lee Ha, there was no way Bo-bae would refuse.
“aunt! Two servings of our tteokbokki and extra fries! Kijeong, do you like tteokbokki too?”
“I like tteokbokki made with stones, not this kind of tteokbokki.”
Ki-jeong responded to Bo-bae’s lively question with a sly smile. Lee Ha and Nara both looked at that expression and shook their heads.
‘No way…’
‘What are you talking about again…’
However, I couldn’t stop Bo-Bae’s question as her eyes were already sparkling.
“What is tteokbokki made of stone?”
“In other words, it’s stone tteokbokki.”
Between Iha and Nara’s eyebrows, the Chinese character ‘川’ was drawn in bold. A noisy Saturday passed quickly.
* * *
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Lee Ha lightly closed his eyes as he watched the blue-green light being created in front of his eyes.
This is because now I can clearly see what this magic is, which is used almost in accordance with the connection cycle.
[Yuck!]
“Mr. Blaugrun, how are you?”
[Kkyun! Kyuu!]
Blaugrun fluttered and circled above Iha’s head.
Even though it was a partnership, Lee Ha also smiled at that behavior, which was still close to the concept of a ‘pet’ in need of protection.
‘Now that I think about it, I need to get items from Blaugrun Sea Lair. Well, I’m not in a hurry for money, so I’ll put it on hold first.’
After I started feeding, I was confident that I could communicate to some extent with Blaugrun, but I still wasn’t satisfied.
After truly communicating in ‘human language’, a much better way would be to ask people to choose the best one.
“I need to pick something really good then?”
[Kyuu?]
Blaugrun tilted his head, unable to understand what he was saying. It was then that there was a knock on Iha’s room door.
Lord of the castle, this is Peytor.
“ah! Yes, Mr. Peytor, please come in.”
The city general management NPC, to put it simply, the butler, was coming in front of Lee Ha again holding a bundle of documents.
“This is a letter from the capital of my country. Since it was an official document from the Holy See, there were instructions to disseminate the contents reliably and quickly under the authority of each castle lord.”
“The feet of the Vatican? Give it to me.”
Sharalak and Iha immediately took the paper and started examining it.
What I had guessed from the moment I saw the Phase 3 update was clearly written in the official document.
“[Recruiting new continent expedition members]… There is a limit to the number of people.”
“They say it’s not confirmed yet, but if we have to go that far away, a large number of people won’t be able to go. If you take into account the need for deep-ocean navigation capabilities and ships to implement that capability, as well as materials…” “
Hmm, well. I guess so. Because it’s not offshore.”
The ocean will not be an ordinary ocean either.
A small ship can easily be damaged by just a storm on the way. Of course, we couldn’t take a large number of people, so we had no choice but to go through a selection test.
‘The number of people already confirmed is seven. No, we have to exclude Bailippus, so it’s six.’
Members of the Demon King’s Army subjugation team were automatically eligible to participate.
Alexander, Lee Ji-won, Ram Hwa-jeong, Kid, Luger and the following.
‘If you’re aiming to participate, you’ll definitely want to be in the top ten of the rankings. Still, it will be difficult for those who were active on the Demon King’s army to come.’
He has already been marked as an enemy by the Vatican.
He couldn’t know that he had lost his status as a stooge of the Demon King’s army upon his death, but he could well guess that his intimacy with the Holy See was negative.
They will not participate.
‘Then, among the remaining rankers are Feiu, Pitre, Chiyo, Nara, and Bobae. ‘Five?’
The official document did not specify how many people were being recruited.
However, Lee Ha already knew that it would never be much.
‘What if we subtract an additional five digits from the already confirmed six? Ki-jeong said he wanted to come too. Umm…. I can’t plug it in, but I have to help.’
Lee Ha opened the bag, rummaged through the items, and looked at his friend’s window. Kijeong was still logged out.
‘But isn’t this guy online? He must have already arrived home. Oh, well….’
Suddenly, as he was leaving the snack bar, Ki-jeong’s words about going with Bo-bae came to mind, and Lee Ha smiled sinisterly.
If you haven’t logged in yet, the reason is probably obvious.
