The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 112

“It was a request from a while ago. “No matter how much I think about it, I think it’s a mess.”

After Den Howl left, Park Hyo-joo said as she saw Namgung off as he was about to return.

“They say conquering a dungeon is a quest… but is that simply the end? “I think there’s more to it.”

“Why do you think that?”

“No one can deny that Namgung’s skills are the most outstanding among the revelers.”

“however?”

“That’s why it’s a problem.”

“Go ahead.”

Namgung quietly listened to Park Hyo-joo’s words.

“I don’t know what the quest is about, but… no matter what anyone says, the most important part of conquering a dungeon is the reward.”

“That’s usually the case.”

“Is it really okay to bring in someone who can contribute higher than you when you succeed in your strategy? “If you are looking for compensation, it would be better to work with someone weaker than you.”

“I told you in advance that I would give up the reward items?”

“I did. But is there anyone who really believes that? The current situation is that if you are greedy right now, you take and take. “There is definitely a risk in accompanying someone stronger than yourself in a situation where you cannot be trusted.”

“Does this mean I can change my mind? “I’m not that bad of a guy.”

Park Hyo-joo stood at the end of the hallway and looked at Namgung.

“Isn’t that something you don’t know? Namgoong also has a plan. Otherwise, there is no way I would obediently allow it. “Because I’m a person who doesn’t do anything to lose money.”

“okay?”

Namgung chuckled.

“As you said, the purpose of Den Howl is probably not just conquering dungeons. “It is likely that it is something other than a reward item obtained from hunting a boss.”

Park Hyo-joo nodded.

“What if the dungeon attack itself is bait?”

“What does it mean?”

“If it were me, I would have asked for help from other revelers rather than Namgung. “If friction arises, the odds of winning will be higher.”

“But why did he come to see me?”

“The purpose may have been different from the beginning. “If what he’s after is not the dungeon, but Namgung…”

“Your keen sense of vision has become useful.”

“That’s all I get from rolling around on the floor.”

She shrugged her shoulders at Namgung’s words and answered with a wry smile.

“But is it really? It makes no sense for him to suddenly target Namgung. “If we do something wrong, it could escalate into a national dispute.”

Because the United States had been an ally until now, Den did not refuse Namgung’s request even in the Demon King Battle.

Moreover, in the current situation, no country will be hostile to Korea, where Namgoong is taking unrivaled steps.

“well. “You don’t know that.”

No, I just don’t think it will happen.

“…yes?”

“The plans of the greats are more insidious than we think. When you say you have received a quest, you will naturally think of the Revelators whose status is most closely related to you.”

“Yes.”

“But Den never once said he received a quest. “He said he had a quest.”

At that moment, Hyo-joo Park remembered Millard from the White House who came with Den Howl.

“Could it be… that this incident might be related to the U.S. government, not him?”

“Well, I’ll have to check to see if the quest given by the status was given to Den Howl… or to someone who can even move Den Howl.”

“Still, he is a revealer in name and appearance… Isn’t he in a position to be swayed?”

“I don’t know. Even if he is a revealer, he is ultimately a human being. “There is no human being without weaknesses.”

“Uhm….”

“What’s important is if a third party other than him received the quest…”

At that moment, Namgung’s eyes shined sharply.

“The ending of this dungeon attack will be different depending on whether Den Howl’s participation is voluntary or involuntary.”

“What if this trip to the dungeon is really aimed at Namgung?”

“Well, the ending won’t change.”

Instead of using sharp eyes, Namgung spoke in a calm voice.

“Whoever targets me will die.”

“This is the end of the briefing. The goal is simple. Defeat a dungeon created in Oregon. Kim Chang-hwan, Kyung-in, and even voice actors. “The three of you are going with me on this dungeon raid.”

“All right.”

“I was bored, but it turned out well. “I will prepare.”

Namgung, who returned to the castle, talked about what happened at the Blue House.

“Dad, I’m going with you.”

“You stay here.”

“why? They say 50 people died. The more dangerous it is, the more I have to go. “You still don’t trust me?”

Somin, who heard about the annihilation of the expedition team, looked at Namgung with worried eyes.

“No way. Now I trust my daughter more than anyone else. That’s why I have to stay here longer.”

Namgung smiled slightly as he looked at his daughter.

“…why?”

“While I was in the Yasha Realm, 16 dungeons were summoned. “Everyone probably knows that one of them is in Korea.”

“You are talking about the dungeon created in Hwanseongul Cave in Samcheok.”

“that’s right.”

“As far as I know, troops from the 23rd Security Brigade are currently stationed there…”

“Yes. We have taken steps to ensure that if anything happens, you can be connected directly to the hotline.”

When Ho-jun glanced at Park Hyo-joo, she nodded and answered.

“Did you hear? The rest aren’t just there either. Everyone go there and wait.”

Namgung looked at his daughter.

“You must prepare for changes in the dungeon.”

“Change?”

“When any one of the 16 dungeons is completed, it signals that all remaining dungeons will disappear.”

“You’re saying it’s going to disappear?”

“Then what about the monster inside?”

“No way… it won’t come out.”

The children, including Gyeongin, asked anxiously.

“no. Rather, it’s the opposite. In the destroyed dungeon, something else will appear instead of a monster. “You guys just have to retrieve it.”

“What is that?”

“Holy object.”

Namgung answered.

People looked at him with puzzled expressions at his unexpected words.

“It’s just as the name says. It is a weapon with short phase power. Once you get it, you will be able to use some of the power of the phase.”

“The power of Aspect? So isn’t that huge? Wow… can’t I go to Samcheok?”

The voice actor asked with wide eyes.

“huh. no.”

“….”

“I don’t know what level of holy relics you will find in Samcheok, but there is no point in getting just one. “The holy relics only show their power when all pairs are collected.”

“Brother, isn’t there only one dungeon summoned in Korea? So that means the other one is somewhere else…”

“That’s why we have to go.”

“okay. Attackers will soon arrive from all over to steal the holy relics. “You must protect the holy relics from them.”

Everyone nodded at Namgung’s words.

“It would also be important to find out where they came from. Only then will we be able to find the rest of the holy relics.”

“Of course it’s necessary, but there’s no need to force yourself to go after them. “Our goal is not to collect holy relics, but rather to prevent them from gathering.”

“yes? why?”

“What does that mean? older brother.”

Looking at them asking questions, Namgung kept his mouth shut for a moment.

“Come back to that.”

“All right. I guess I should hurry to get to Samcheok. Hojun, let’s get ready.”

“yes? Ah yes.”

Myung-Hoon, who was quick-witted, looked at his complexion first and answered before anyone else could speak.

“Myung-Hoon. Make sure you lead the kids well. “Please help the former player.”

“I understand. Don’t worry. Please take care of yourself too.”

“All right.”

Namgung also nodded in response to Jeon Tae-ho’s answer.

“It won’t be easy. Hunting monsters and dealing with people are completely different things. “Myung-hoon and Ho-jun lead us well.”

“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”

“Do not worry.”

After the two people from the unit answered, Namgoong lightly wrapped his arms around Somin’s shoulders.

“Somin. You are responsible for handling the holy relics. Because the power of the phase cannot be handled without strong mental power. “You can do it, right?”

“huh. okay.”

She answered with a nervous look on her face, unlike before.

“I will go with you too.”

“no. You stay too. Because protecting the holy relics is more important than conquering dungeons. “I told them to be on standby so that not only the True Evil Unit but also the forces of Jang Gil-su and Jin Su-hyuk could move at any time.”

“Is that so? “It’s almost like a war…”

“The rest should come back.”

Seeing Namgoong’s reticence once again, Park Hyo-joo, like the other two people, sensed that something unusual was about to happen.

“All right. “I will prepare right away.”

After everyone in the group left, only Kim Chang-hwan remained in the room.

“You don’t have to prepare?”

“What do you need to prepare? Just take a gun and go.”

Changhwan sat next to Namgung.

“older brother.”

“why?”

“Are you okay with those two little guys?”

“There is Den Haul, and the U.S. will also send people. Besides, since I’m going, it won’t be too difficult.”

“no. That’s not it. “What I’m talking about is not dungeon raiding.”

“then?”

“When it comes to dungeon raiding, Myung-hoon or Ho-jun are better suited. But the reason you called me and not those two…is that it’s not just monster hunting.”

“….”

“My specialty is killing things other than monsters. In that sense, it would be better for me to go to Samcheok. But the fact that you called me…”

Changhwan looked at Namgung.

“Does this mean you can catch something other than monsters?”

“Anyway, it’s useless to be quick-witted.”

Namgung muttered, clicking his tongue.

“Apart from conquering the dungeon, there may be friction with talented people in the United States, including Den Howl. “Maybe it’s me they’re after.”

“Your brother probably didn’t call you for protection… but to gain experience.”

“that’s right. From now on, it won’t end with simply hunting monsters. “You don’t have to get used to killing… but at least you shouldn’t run away.”

“It could be a harsh time.”

Changhwan let out a low sigh.

“Because the world has changed. “There is no guarantee how long we will be alive, so we need to prepare.”

Gulp –

At Namgung’s words, Changhwan seemed nervous for the first time and swallowed his saliva.

“Hey, don’t say that. older brother.”

“let’s go.”

Namgoong left his anxious voice behind and slowly led his body.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Not really.”

“Okay then. “I did the hard work.”

Michael joked among the group gathered in front of the dungeon.

“Brother, shall I go with you?”

“You monitor the dungeon where you are. There are two dungeons created in Mexico. Out of all of us, you will be the busiest. “Just do as I said.”

“Okay, I understand. Please come back safely.”

“you also.”

Michael, who had brought Namgung and his group with him, seemed to be disappointed by his words and took a lick of his appetite and jumped over the space.

Cheesy…!! It’s so crazy…!!

As Michael jumped into the torn sub-space, the people gathered in front of the dungeon looked in wonder at the empty space where he had been.

‘You’re on alert.’

Namgung glanced at the people standing behind Den Howl.

All of them have an unusual energy.

Even at a glance, it was clear that they were quite capable.

“What about them?”

“yes. This is the number of people who will be with us this time. “All five of them are A-level talents.”

“Class A?”

“There is a person in the government named Rosa Santiago. “You have the skill to quantify and estimate various abilities.”

“…quantify your abilities?”

Namgoong burst out laughing at Den’s words.

“So now we are continuing to grade the talent based on our own standards. These are the best elites in America right now.”

At Den Howl’s words, the people standing behind raised their heads with expressions of pride.

“Why do you do such useless things?”

“…yes?”

However, when they saw Namgoong, he smiled without realizing it.

“Don’t get in my way and get out of the way.”

Chin –

He lightly pushed the arrogant man’s face with his hand.
