Chapter 917 – #200_Cyberpunk and Witches
#911
One.
The date of appearance of the pocket dimension where the lock is sleeping is this morning.
It is located in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean connecting Europe and the Americas.
The allocation of personnel was done carefully and considering the situation.
In the midst of flooding, the number of manpower that Siwoo can accompany is seven.
Siwoo, Eloa, Linne, Amelia, Leruhe, Sharon, Sua teacher.
All of them are coping with location points belonging to Korea and Japan.
But that didn’t mean he could lead all of them to the lock.
The homunculus is menacing and cannot be dealt with by anyone but her witch.
This means that even if the homunculus goes into chaos in the middle of the city for just one minute, at least triple-digit human casualties will occur.
Even now, casualties are occurring every second in every corner of the world.
In this situation, if all seven of them head towards the lock, at the point where they cannot find alternative power, Korea will no longer be a safe zone.
Many civilians will be sacrificed.
That was not what Siou, Eloa, and other lovers wanted.
According to Lydia, there are only two hardliners who will move to get hold of the lock, Urshira and Priscilla, each in the 22nd hierarchy.
According to that, the team was formed and the number of personnel was selected at a level that could be reinforced in case of emergency.
If this transaction is a trap and a situation arises in which they have to run away, many people are rather poison.
If the trap was thoroughly planned anyway, Siwoo’s forces would have been largely understood.
Even if all seven were taken, they would have deployed enough people to handle it.
In other words, it means that the fewer the number, the more likely it will be possible to escape the body without missing a single person.
The number of people under Siwoo equipped in this way is as follows.
Master Eloah, who is a specialist in the Great Witch War and without question, is the best.
Rinne has not only rich combat experience, but also a good understanding of the way of thinking and the achievement itself.
Along with Siwoo, who can use space movement, they were each optimized for individual action and escape in case of emergency.
Sharon is left out in that she is somewhat behind in her hierarchy, and she has achieved a rise in the hierarchy not too long ago, so she still has a lot to improve on.
Leruye was reserved because he was an essential manpower to build a wide defense line spanning not only the South Sea but also the East China Sea and the East Sea.
Amelia was left out in that she did not recover all of her energy drained from her last battle.
Sua could not move recklessly because she was not just a Korean Suho, but also a commanding tower for East Asian location points.
With this alone, there is one 23rd level, one 22nd level, and one sub-21st level.
It was a powerful team that I couldn’t even dare to touch with a decent amount of power, but it was far from perfect.
It was a sudden situation and it was a situation that had no choice but to be swung around.
“…”
Looking down at the clouds and the black sea through the window of the private plane, Siu remained silent.
Before boarding the plane, Amelia and Sharon were worried about Siu.
In fact, there was no need for Siwoo to be on the team as safety was the top priority, not the success of the stealing operation.
Although the 21st egg is at the top of the witch pyramid, there are plenty of witches who are stronger than Siu.
But no one said anything about it.
Everyone knows.
Even if one of them was in danger, Siwoo would have made the same choice.
That’s why I tried to suppress my anxiety and respected Siwoo’s intention.
It was trust.
After hearing the sad news that Dorothy was taken hostage, Leruet ran in panting and asked Siu with a calm gaze that was not typical of her.
‘Siwoo, make sure to find Jim’s close friend.’
I know how much Leruhe loves and follows Dorothy.
She was determined to have her join her team, even in exchange for Linnaeus, if Leruët insisted on joining her.
But Leroux did not.
‘Jim believes in you. So he will wait for the day when he joins hands with Dorothy and protects the frail humans.’
‘Because that’s what you want from Jim.’
‘The strongest book of mine must also be the strongest.’
‘Return safely.’
I just showed off my faith that was burdensome and told me to be careful by talking around.
That too was trust.
Both trusts rest heavily on your shoulders.
The realization that you are heading for something dangerous is pervasive, but your heart is frighteningly calm and slow.
Underlying it was anxiety, nervousness, and anger.
Like explosives waiting to explode, even at this moment, anger builds up one by one.
“Nanggun.”
“Yes.”
Rinne, who placed her sword on her lap and thoroughly wiped it with a white cloth, called out to Siu.
Elroa is sleeping next to him to pay for her contract.
Siu was alone in the anxious silence, but Rinne was still.
Even as she moved her steps toward what would presumably be her battlefield, the way she polished her sword was no different from her appearance in her Hyang Yuelu main house.
Since he is so expressionless, the fact that he doesn’t show off will also play a role.
“Your expression is too dark.”
“Because the situation is the situation.”
Rinne, who was staring at Siwoo who shed her bitter smile, drew her sword.
After sneaking a sneak peek at Eloah, who was sleeping under her blanket, Rinne sat next to Siu.
“Tension is poison.”
“I am not nervous.”
“Nang-gun, it means that composure is important in any situation.”
“…”
Rinne’s dark eyes looked at Siwoo seriously.
Even Siwoo could tell that there was sincere concern behind the seemingly expressionless expression.
“The more it is a life-and-death fight. The heavier the weight of the fight, the more it keeps the heart of Myung Kyung Ji Soo. That is the most important thing.”
Linne holds her hand while giving advice from her experience.
Her slightly cold hands massaged Siu’s hands as if giving her a massage.
“It’s not just my safety at stake.”
“Know. That Nanggun values the people around him. That’s why I’m worried.”
“…”
“If you want to relax, it’s good to do what you normally do. There is too much strength on Nanggun’s shoulders right now.”
Linne naturally sat on top of Siu’s thigh.
And she carefully kisses her lips.
“A kiss between a man and a woman is effective in relieving tension.”
Rinne ends her kiss in a blunt tone and speaks seriously.
However, her cheeks are red enough to be dyed when paper is attached and removed.
Rinne, who is clumsy in many ways, is trying her best for Siwoo.
“Thank you. Miss Rinne.”
It was only then that Siwoo was able to smile a little.
2.
Now that the ‘door’ is blocked, Gehenna’s most effective means of transportation is blocked.
Of course, witches who can use magical powers are faster to cover fairly long distances, but the important thing is efficiency.
As they had to enter the battlefield in the best condition, Siwoo and his party were provided with a supersonic passenger plane.
It is a miniaturized version of the airliner that went out of service in 2000 due to safety concerns.
The passenger plane, which departed from Narita Airport and arrived in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean in three hours, gradually lowered its altitude and speed and waited for entry into the ‘door’.
-Kugung! Kwakwawang!
The cargo hold of the plane.
Compared to the cabin, the sound of heavy rain and depth charges outside could be heard intact in the cargo compartment, where noise treatment was not assured.
This large cloud and thunderstorm clearly obscured the location of the ‘door’.
It is impossible to determine the location even on satellite, so no one will be able to find this place unless it is a prophecy.
“I will prepare for the descent. 30 seconds to reach the drop point.”
The copilot dispatched from Location Point said with a tense expression to one handsome man and two peerless beauties.
At the designated time, the airliner will pass over the ‘door’ and the three people will jump into it at the right time.
“Countdown 10 seconds, 9 seconds, 8 seconds,…”
– Knock!
When the hatch was opened, the inside and outside air pressures mixed and the wind and rain blew in.
The copilot continued the countdown while holding onto the belt tightly to avoid being sucked out.
“Three seconds! 2 seconds! One second!”
The first officer screamed loudly to keep his voice from being drowned out by the storm, and held onto the steering wheel and belt to resist the wind that seemed to throw him out of the cabin at any moment.
On the other hand, the three people who were not wearing any equipment, let alone parachutes, were calm.
Just jump out like jumping through a low window.
Free fall.
Three people who fall faster than rainwater, flapping their clothes.
As we repeatedly fall through the thick rain clouds, we see a crack in space shining with gold in the middle of the sea.
The bodies of the three disappeared like ghosts.
3.
“Guy.”
It’s hard to get used to the anxiety of dimension shift.
Siwoo gets on his knees and soothes his sick stomach.
“Are you okay?”
This is the pocket space where the lock is located.
For example, it is a place like Hexsenacht or the fishing port of Rruhe.
It was not uncommon for the Witch of Creation’s relics to be in separate rooms.
Immediately, the homunculus, a creature she created, hibernates by creating a subspace and freely crossing her dimension.
The place where the three arrived is a two-lane asphalt road that crosses the wasteland.
It was a barren land where not a single tree grew even if you looked around.
It was the middle of the night, and there were no lights, so it was dark everywhere.
“Huh?”
At this point, Siwoo sensed a sense of incongruity.
This space was created by the Witch of Creation to hide her locks.
That means it is at least an older space than Gehenna.
However, the material used to pave the road Siu is stepping on is asphalt, although it may be less well-maintained.
Could it be that something has gone wrong and you have come to the wrong place?
“Master, isn’t that a bit strange?”
“…”
“Master, Rinne-sama?”
“…”
Eloa and Rinne didn’t answer.
Just blankly staring at her with her mouth open.
Only then did Siwoo look up and see the direction the two were facing.
There was a wall there.
Very, very strong and high walls that wrapped around the city across the wilderness.
Beyond the wall, which must have been made of cement and steel frames, the sky was brightened by buildings reaching up to the sky and lights from searchlights.
I could see it from a distance.
That building is absolutely not the height that can be created with modern technology.
No building on the planet can compare to one of those skyscrapers.
“What is that…”
And Siu couldn’t help but be dazed again at the phrase that appeared on the large electronic display board erected next to the castle wall.
[Welcome to Daejeon, the city of entertainment and pleasure]
First of all, this place did not exist in reality.
