Chapter 658
A protective shield spread widely around the clock.
Kang Sang stroked his beard as he looked at the light blocking him like a giant shield.
“Is this… a mixture of the powers of protection?”
“yes. “I tried applying it once.”
“You look okay.”
It’s not like you can only use one power like quarantined people do.
I need to mix things up as much as possible.
Kang Sang watched the protective shield created by combining time reversal and the power of protection.
I looked outside.
“Then let’s go out.”
“yes.”
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss???
A protective shield that goes out of Yetohonse’s territory with Kang Sang.
As soon as he left, the light of the Transcendental Body penetrated the protective shield and reached him.
“Light comes in, but the effect of the Transcendental Body is significantly blocked. “It seems like the shield is definitely working.”
With a satisfied expression, Kang Sang told Seong Ji-han that this would work.
“hmm. “Isn’t it completely blocked yet?”
“Up to complete blocking… I see. It’s not that I don’t feel the comfort of the transcendental body. But this alone is enough to bring in quarantined people.”
“okay.”
Is complete blocking still out of the question?
I picked up the quarantined people’s watches and absorbed a lot, but I think it’s still not enough.
still.
“Wouldn’t it be more complete here if we absorbed more of the quarantine people’s clocks? “Then bring it back right away.”
Kang Sang said that and walked out towards the passage with light steps.
It’s definitely a completely different movement from the last time, when I was barely able to withstand the light of the Transcendental Body.
After seeing Kang Sang leave like that, Seong Ji-han turned his gaze towards the Transcendental Body.
‘When Kang Sang leaves, the Overmind focuses on him… but that’s not really the case.’
In fact, after Uld disappeared.
If the Transcendental Body had actively moved, Seong Ji-han would not have lasted long.
What if that light absorbed a large number of quarantined people lying nearby?
Yetohonse’s realm would have been eaten away, unable to withstand any longer, and both Seong Ji-han and Kang Sang would have been absorbed by the light of the transcendental body.
‘But even if it’s because of the clock of light… I can’t believe Kang Sang even allowed himself to bring in the quarantined person. ‘Why was there no response?’
Then this is good.
Seong Ji-han, who was watching the extremely passive actions of the Transcendental Body, turned his gaze towards Yetohonsei’s realm.
The dark blue floor being eaten away little by little by the light.
If it continued to be encroached upon like this, it was only a matter of time before the territory disappeared.
‘Kang Sang-do has gone far, so now I have to try to stop it.’
Seong Ji-han retrieved the protective shield that had been sent to the entrance passage and redistributed it to Yetohonsei’s area.
OK.
Sussss….
The dark blue area is no longer encroached upon by light.
Rather, the area behind the shield began to recover little by little.
Of course, the speed was so slow that it seemed like it would take a long time to recover what had been eaten away.
‘I can’t believe it’s this effective… I understand why Uld called it rock, paper, scissors.’
The Overmind can’t use its power to reverse time, right?
Seong Ji-han moved the protective shield with a clock in the center around to protect Yetohonsei’s territory.
“If I do this… I can hold out a little longer.”
When Seong Ji-han inwardly sighs with relief as he sees that the territory is no longer being encroached upon.
“son-in-law. “I will send people there.”
Kang Sang’s voice came like an echo from the aisle.
It seems like it hasn’t been long since they came out, but have they already secured new people?
‘but. If you’re at his martial arts level, it’ll be quick.’
Although he moved very carefully before Uld died.
After she disappeared, as long as you were careful of the light of the Overmind, you wouldn’t be disturbed.
It was entirely worth it for Kang Sang to bring in the quarantined people in the blink of an eye.
And soon.
Shoo! Shoo!
The bodies of the quarantined people, who were floating in the air, were thrown near Yetohonsei’s territory.
Although the light of the Overmind bathed them.
Perhaps because there is a clock of light attached, quarantined people pile up one after another without much effect.
‘I guess I should start taking care of business.’
Sigh!
Seong Ji-han brought them into Yetohonse’s territory, turned them into ‘normal people’, and began the process of removing their watches.
Meanwhile.
“The clock of light floating in the air is still there, so let’s get that too.”
“Were there any clocks of light left?”
“I see. Even though Uld is dead, her traces are still alive and well. “Let us use this opportunity.”
“Then let me ask you a favor.”
“okay. “My son-in-law should look after his work.”
Kang Sang, across the passage, set out again, saying he would bring back all the clocks of light that had been placed in the Ark.
‘It looks like Kang Sang is farming this instead of me.’
I wonder if this is what automatic hunting with a summoned animal feels like.
Seong Ji-han smiled and happily accepted the light watch he sent.
The result of repeating the process of organizing the isolator and absorbing the clock of light.
Ji-e-ing….
The watch that Seong Ji-han created looked finished, unlike the first time.
“Clock of Light… Is it finally completed?”
Kang Sang looks satisfied from across the aisle.
Seong Ji-han placed the completed watch on the floor.
OK.
Paaaaat…!
A greatly expanded clock of light seeped into the dark blue floor.
The territory of Yeto Honse began to expand.
It was actually bigger than when Seong Ji-han unfolded the blue lotus flower.
Kang Sang, who was watching this from the passage, stroked his beard.
“Hoo… what method did you use?”
“The power of time reversal has been fused into Yetohonsei. This means that the light of the Overmind can no longer suppress the realm.”
Susssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss….
Unlike the gnawing away just a moment ago, the dark blue energy spreads out.
Even though only the clock of light was added, Yetohonse was easily pushing out the light of the transcendental body.
“If this continues, there will be a path in the aisle where the luggage is.”
“yes. “I think we will completely take over the central area except where the Overmind is located.”
As Seong Ji-han said.
Yetohonse’s territory continued to expand and the light in the central area was taken away.
The scenery of the central part of the Ark is gradually revealed.
There are gently shining mechanical devices.
Two server connection devices were neatly placed.
* * *
“There was a facility like this in the central part of the Ark…”
Kang Sang looked around the central part of the Ark that appeared after the light cleared.
A mechanical device that is extremely complex at first glance.
Just looking at the exterior, it seemed like it would be difficult to deal with even if a new human arrived.
“Hmm… I guess I can solve server-related problems if I know how to handle that. son-in-law. “Is it possible?”
“Does the Emperor have any thoughts?”
“I was originally weak against machines. If I touched anything, it would just break. “I don’t want to ruin your world this time again.”
Seong Ji-han nodded at those words.
It’s terrible to even imagine if Kang Sang clicks something wrong and the server is reset.
‘But I’m not that bright about machines either…’
In particular, how would we know about the Arc’s mechanical devices used by the new humans?
Seong Ji-han looked at this quietly with his arms crossed.
‘It would be better to ask an expert about this.’
Cheonghong was summoned.
‘hey. How to deal with that. Do you think you understand?’
A red manager who is skilled in everything except combat.
Let’s ask him again this time.
[I think I understand. Because I had some understanding of the Arc when I was at Hephaestus.] As
expected, I received a positive answer without disappointing my expectations.
‘okay? Then tell me what it is used for.’
[It’s not that difficult… Blue manager. Do you plan to leave that machine to me again this time?]
‘That’s…’
Seong Ji-han couldn’t easily answer that question.
Until now, all of these cumbersome and complicated tasks have been transferred to the red manager.
Because in this case, his world was at stake.
No matter how complicated and difficult it is to understand that machine.
I was also reluctant to leave this entirely to the red manager.
and.
[Blue manager. How about taking this opportunity to learn from me and use it?]
‘Learn from me?’
[Yes.]
Even from the red manager side.
This case was recommended to Seong Ji-han.
‘…what. If you teach me, I will learn it. But you’ve been doing well so far, so what’s the sudden change of heart?’
[In fact, after seeing the Transcendental Body, I lost all motivation.]
‘Seeing the Transcendental Body?’
[okay. Because what I’ve been pursuing my whole life is over there, a few more steps completed.]
Unlike when I first entered Ark and was excited to see Hephaestus.
The current red manager was completely exhausted.
‘why. ‘You have an underworld, right?’
[The underworld is just a bonfire compared to the transcendental body…]
‘Is that that much?’
[Okay… I’ll give you an analogy that’s easy for you to understand. If a nuclear power plant is a transcendental body, then a monkey lighting a fire with a stick in front of it would be the underworld.]
No, that’s too different a level, isn’t it?
Didn’t the red manager’s Underworld also randomly pick up its own stat enemies?
But the Underworld is just like a bonfire in front of the Transcendence.
It was around the time when Seong Ji-han wanted to put things in order and looked at the light of the Transcendental Body again.
[It’s surprising that you resist like this in front of the Overmind… but never lose your mind. If that thing uses up its power, the area you built will be wiped out in an instant.]
‘…I understand. ‘Keep that in mind.’
[Then I will go straight to education.]
Education.
It would probably take a considerable amount of time to learn how to operate the new human machinery from the red manager.
‘I guess I’ll just have to hold on for a while.’
Seong Ji-han looked at Yetohonse’s territory with worried eyes.
Now, the Clock of Light has merged and is holding up well.
Because the current situation could change at any time.
Seong Ji-han decided to make a serious effort and began receiving training from the red manager.
And not long after.
‘…what?’
Seong Ji-han looked at the mechanical devices with a puzzled face.
‘Is it because of device skill? Why is it so easy to understand?’
A newspaper item that I had no idea how to use until I heard the explanation from the red manager.
However, contrary to my initial thought that the training would take a long time, I was able to fully understand what he was saying.
[…Blue manager, did you already know this?]
The red manager who was teaching was so suspicious.
‘No way. I think it’s because of the device skill characteristics.’
[hmm. I guess it’s easier to understand because your body has almost become an anthropomorphic one. Anyway, the training won’t take long.]
‘Okay. ‘I won’t waste my time here.’
I was worried, but at this speed, I would be able to use the machines in no time.
While thinking like that, Seong Ji-han was manipulating the devices here and there.
Jeeeeee….
When a window appeared in front of his eyes, his eyes lit up.
There.
[Server 4212 connection status]
[Avatar – Uld]
[Avatar – Id]
In addition to the list of people he had already finished.
[Data Manager]
‘Is this… a black manager?’
Because it even had the name of the black manager written on it.
