Kwagwagwagwa.
A huge whirlpool suddenly appeared in the peaceful Han River, where only giant monster fish are occasionally seen.
A monster fish thanks to the whirlpool that appeared in the center of the river. The Vixalurus began to tremble in Busan.
Slap, chuaak.
The current spread in all directions, and the area around the Han River was hit by an untimely flood.
The Cheonho-dong berm, which was overgrown with weeds and reeds, also suffered an untimely flood.
A huge wave of water hit the berm, like a flood.
Weeds and reeds were swept away by the waves, and rusty exercise equipment suffered once again.
However, the suffering did not end there.
Fuaaaaaa!
Suddenly, a huge stream of water rose into the sky from the center of the berm.
Unlike the water of the Han River, it was a dark stream with a slightly strange smell. However, the water stream quickly changed to a normal water color.
Vixalurus seemed surprised by the sudden flow of water.
The jumping fish stopped moving, and the water that had been rushing into the banks drained back into the Han River.
Other objects also flew up mixed in with the huge stream of water rising into the sky.
Kyung-Hoon was also seen there.
“Puaaaaaak!”
Gyeonghoon flew into the sky, spouting water from his mouth.
Even though he couldn’t jump tens of meters like a stream of water, he still did an amazing jump.
Gyeonghoon soared into the sky and fell immediately. He crashed next to the ground where a stream of water gushes out.
“Heo, heo, heo. Heo, heo.”
Kyung-hoon, who was pinned to the floor, was out of breath.
“Hehehehehehehe, I almost died from suffocation. Sigh…I should have brought an oxygen mask after all.”
-Yes, I will add it to the items.
“Huh, no, why did everything go smoothly and then take a turn for the worse? You almost suffocated to death.”
– It looks like they used an unexpected method of treating drainage.
“What do you mean? Are you saying we came out of a drain? “No, wait a minute, the place we just passed through felt like the inside of some kind of monster?”
Gyeong-hoon, who had been passing through a tunnel under the current for a while, was sucked into a hole in the middle of the tunnel.
The long hole looked not like ground or stone, but like an animal’s stomach.
Gyeong-hoon desperately held his breath, and fortunately, he was able to escape to the banks of the Han River before he lost his breath.
-I thought the water flowing into the tunnel would be used as drinking water for bat monsters or thrown away when going outside. “however?”
-I think it was resolved through a symbiotic relationship.
Puff puff puff!
Following Gyeonghoon, bat monsters rained down from the sky. They were monsters with bulging bellies.
They weren’t dead yet, but they drank a lot of water and were all unconscious.
“Let’s finish first.”
Kyung-hoon pulled out his sword and ran to the fallen bats. He stuck the sword into the heads of the bat monsters. The
alarm continued to sound.
After dozens of animals had taken their breath, there were no more fallen bats to be seen.
“Whew, it was a rewarding ending.”
Gyeong-hoon, who sheathed his sword with a satisfied expression, asked again.
“What does symbiotic relationship mean?”
– Bat dung guano is an flammable material that is good for making bombs, but it is also rich in nutrients and contributes greatly to the ecology of underground caves.
Gyeonghoon also knew this much, but in order to hear what he said next, I listened closely.
-There must have been a monster targeting the guano that was washed away in the water of the undersea tunnel.
Gyeonghoon flinched as he remembered the cave he had passed through.
-That monster was avoiding Visalurus by using this berm and the undersea tunnel. He ingested guano by connecting it with his long body and sucking out the water.
Gyeong-hoon looked at the water stream and slowly backed away. It was probably not a good story.
“You mean I passed through the stomach of a monster?”
There was no need to hear Eve’s answer.
Kuaaaa!
As if it couldn’t hold out any longer, a huge earthworm broke through the ground and lifted itself up into the sky.
A huge pillar soared into the sky, and the pillar spewed an even stronger stream of water into the air.
Kyung-hoon continued to step back and express his admiration.
“Wow, I think if I catch that, I’ll be collecting a lot of mana.”
Of course, it was a pointless story. Considering how long it was hidden underground, it was clear that cutting it for several days would be of no use.
-I think we’ll have to postpone that opportunity until later. There are people other than the owner who are after you.
Moreover, like Eve said, there was someone running towards this place.
A huge fish with a black body that approaches quickly, cutting through the river water. It was Visalurus.
Kyung-hoon quickly ran away to the other side. When I saw the fish running towards me, it seemed like I could easily climb up the ridge.
“I’ll have to take revenge next time.”
-It’s not really a matter of revenge.
Kyung-hoon continued running, ignoring Eve’s words with one ear.
A moment later, Visalurus pushed his body into the mound where the giant earthworm was spitting out water.
The mound was submerged in water again, and Vixalurus moved across the mound as if sliding on ice and caught the giant earthworm in its mouth.
The earthworm couldn’t resist even once. The earthworms, whose strength was already low, were unable to hide in the ground again and were pulled out one after another.
Other monster fish also flocked in, and a little while later, the Vixalurus’ earthworm party began on the banks of the Han River.
Meanwhile, Kyung-hoon took refuge in a riverside apartment and returned to his original world when it was time to move between dimensions.
Kyung-hoon appeared in a Hong Kong park under the morning sun.
People were horrified by the smell coming from Kyung-hoon’s body.
Seeing the people slowly avoiding him, he also smelled the smell and quickly went into the bathroom to wash himself thoroughly.
The smell did not go away easily.
Gyeonghoon sighed, changed into the clothes in his backpack, and headed to the outskirts of Hong Kong.
‘I washed it like that, but it still smells… I’m going to get kicked out of the taxi if I do this…’
While Kyung-hoon was thinking that, the taxi driver was also contemplating whether to let him off midway.
After finally arriving at his destination, he entered the bathroom and gave instructions to Eve.
“Proceed with what I said before.”
-yes. I will post it on the Internet.
The monitors standing in one corner of the living room started to light up.
As usual, articles written by EV were posted on each site. EVs have now become something we take for granted on the Internet.
The same was true for Yale University students who will be responsible for the future of America.
All the students waiting for class in the classroom were reading EV’s articles on tablets and laptops.
“This article has no substance.”
Some advice and nice words.
The students who were reading the text looked down at their screens with disappointed expressions.
“Aren’t you running out of things to say? “The content is becoming more and more ordinary.”
Another student shook his head at the cynical words of one student.
“It is surprising that posts like this have continued to be posted. The site administrators have given up on deleting them and the government has also failed to track them. I have no idea how they did it.”
A student studying abroad in India was looking at the screen with defiant eyes.
“Well, that’s true, but it’s not enough to look at it every time it comes up.”
Many people nodded at the words of the student who spoke first.
At that time, the student who pulled the screen down the fastest tilted his head.
“But what is the pattern below? Is it a video? It’s just moving.”
Everyone else also quickly flipped through the screen.
“Isn’t that an image? “How did you make this?”
One student exclaimed in surprise, but the truth was revealed by another student.
“Hey, it’s a GIF. I just circulated a bunch of them. It’s no big deal.”
The excited atmosphere subsided.
“Is this their logo? What logo did they make so flashy?”
Below EV’s post, there was a pattern spinning around half the screen:
“It looks like some kind of magic circle.”
“You mean they are wizards of the electronic world? Well, if you look at the supernatural powers of mutant humans, you wouldn’t have anything to say even if they were wizards.”
At that time, the front door of the classroom opened. The professor in charge came inside.
The students who were looking at the patterns switched screens one by one. Now it was time to prepare for class.
But one The student couldn’t prepare for class like the others. He kept staring at the pattern.
All his friends saw the pattern and didn’t notice anything wrong, but he was different. He
could find letters within the pattern.
[A small book for the awakened . [We created a community.]
A sentence written in English and the internet homepage address written below it.
He looked around the classroom. Everyone was busy preparing for class. He was the only one who could know the content in this pattern. This article is about a
mutant human being . It was clear that he could only see!
“Class is starting.”
Jake quickly closed the screen and looked at the professor.
This was a mutant he had been hiding well all this time.
My heart trembled at the thought of being able to contact another mutant, but now it was like always. They had to pretend to be ordinary people.
In many places, people recognized the content in the patterns like Jake did.
Texts written in various languages and website addresses.
They avoided people around them in their rooms, in bathrooms, in offices with the lights off, and the addresses hidden in the patterns. I logged in.
The homepage screen was monotonous.
There was a single moving pattern drawn on an empty white background, and below that there was a place to enter the password.
Normal people could not look further inside, but awakened people could enter the password within the pattern. was found.
After returning home, Jake locked the door and accessed the homepage.
The password in the pattern kept changing at regular intervals.
Jake entered the password.
Hwaak.
The screen changed.
– Currently, 142 people are on the homepage. We visited. The number is increasing.
Kyung-hoon nodded at Eve’s words.
Creating a site where only awakened people gather would have been impossible without Eve.
Not revealing the location of the site and hiding the letters in the pattern. Letting go was something only Eve could do.
-This is one of the uses of mana programming. Using images, it leaves a reverberation of mana on the screen that only the awakened person can recognize. This is a programming reproduction of mana amplification with Managine in reality.
Kyung-hoon stood up while listening to Eve’s explanation.
-Of course, as you can see, the effect was extremely inefficient, so it was useless except for barely recognizing the shape.
Eve’s voice seemed to contain regret, but Kyung-hoon was fully satisfied.
Things were going as expected.
Kyunghoon stepped back and looked at the screens. The screens managed by Eve were constantly changing.
When viewed from the back, the living room wall looked like a fund manager’s studio because of the monitors and computers spread out on one side of the living room.
But looking at the other side, the situation was completely different.
A spacious and luxurious living room and a bathroom that feels like a sauna in a suite hotel. In addition, the interior of the luxury villa built on the side of the mountain was very luxurious at first glance, with a
large bedroom equipped with a king-size luxury bed .
Kyunghoon looked at the Hong Kong night view unfolding through the living room window.
The night view from the new house I bought was very beautiful.
