Doctor (2)
[Woohohoho! Is it Masquerade? What a cool name! It suits you very well!]
The doctor, a middle-aged man who applauds and responds as if he is genuinely happy.
However, Heinz II, who was able to set foot in this place after breaking through the dungeon, did not answer those words and slowly looked around.
I frowned slightly at the information I had discovered with my newly developed spiritual sense.
‘You’re showing some tricks.’
At first glance, it seemed like we had finally arrived at our destination after all sorts of obstacles, but in fact, this place was no ordinary place.
It is just an illusion that reflects real space like a mirror.
Of course, the same thing happened to the Doctor who was talking in front of him right now.
‘Is this a final struggle?’
But now, this level of resistance was not even funny.
At the same time that Heinz’s eyes began to glow with a deep blood-red aura, the space around him began to tear apart.
Kwazisig—
He didn’t care at all what the other person was saying in front of him and just continued to do what he had to do.
An ultra-small local dimension formed by artificially overlapping and twisting the topology of the backspace.
That was his rough judgment about the method the Doctor was using.
‘If Hans or Horus were here in person, we would be able to figure it out faster and more clearly.’
The various techniques applied in this space were so intricately intertwined and at such a high level that indirect analysis through other avatars was bound to have some limitations.
Isn’t the element of sense an absolute standard when it comes to accepting and interpreting information?
‘I’m still not fully accustomed to my newly developed senses.’
Moreover, that level alone was enough to destroy what was blocking his path.
No matter what anyone says, he was the only level 10 and divine blood vampire in this world.
[This is really troublesome! Pahahahahah! This is what a single person means!]
“…It’s noisy.”
And the doctor, who was a direct stakeholder in this matter, knew this fact very well.
The last barrier that prevented him from coming face to face with that monstrous being was about to collapse.
[hahahahahah—!]
However, even though the final moment was clearly approaching, he just burst out laughing with a strange madness as if nothing had happened.
Heinz’s brow furrowed slightly at that attitude, which even a madman couldn’t easily understand.
‘Have you given up? Otherwise, why would you react like that… hmm?’
That moment.
His thoughts stopped when he felt something.
Ugh—
The surrounding energy began to fluctuate violently due to the huge flow of cause and effect that suddenly became more intense.
And his senses, which had become extremely sensitive, instantly drew some result that followed from that.
The corner of his mouth kept twitching without realizing it.
Of course, this is…
“···Ha, self-destruction?”
[oh? You are very perceptive!]
An abnormal phenomenon triggered by engulfing all the mysteries that unfolded around this mansion.
It instantly expanded in size and began to separate the surrounding area from reality.
‘It’s a technique that is performed at the cost of one’s own life. I don’t think it was a feature that existed from the beginning… Did you build this in such a short time?’
Heinz clicked his tongue and looked at the doctor again.
A ritual that removes the space behind the dungeon and returns everything inside to nothingness.
As a result, the mansion site they were currently on would disappear from the world and all that would remain would be a huge crater.
‘Of course, if it succeeds.’
A grin escaped from his mouth.
‘···There is no way it will succeed.’
It’s not like he’s hiding somewhere to do his work, but he has the ability to stay still when he’s being hit right in front of his nose like this!
No matter how abnormally fast the consciousness led by him was activated, there was bound to be some limit.
Jiying—
Heinz’s thinking accelerated rapidly.
As time passed infinitely slowly, depth gradually increased.
The flow of cause and effect fluctuating around me became clearer than ever before.
‘Now.’
He slowly stretched out his hand while feeling all of those things.
With a ray of intention, I grabbed a part of the hem.
Ugh—
and.
…and that was the end.
The inside of the mansion became quiet again, as if it had never been so loud.
The only thing that had changed was the doctor, who was quickly crumbling into powder from the extremities of his body, bleeding from all over, as if he was alone in the aftermath.
“Cough! Wow, I didn’t know this could be blocked so easily…? hehehehe, I never thought something like this would be possible… “It seems you are much more capable than I thought!”
But even in the meantime, his righteous mouth did not close.
After giggling for a while, he just nodded, looking around at his limbs scattering into the air, as if he had found an interesting research topic.
“It’s a shame we can’t study it right away! “I think this will be a very interesting topic.”
Then he took a lick of his appetite and made a light complaint.
The fact that he was thinking about research even when his own death was just around the corner was truly a mad scientist himself.
But that kind of appearance as a doctor didn’t last long.
The recoil of extinction that engulfed my body in an instant went beyond my limbs and went straight to my torso and head.
“···Then see you next time! I hope I can see you and all your friends then! Pyahahahahaha!”
Pasasak—
The doctor’s body, which left behind words that were unclear whether it was a will or a curse, was soon completely reduced to dust and scattered.
I felt a little uncomfortable with the somewhat vain ending, but it wasn’t something I could do about it right away.
‘···It would have been best if we could have caught him alive, but since he came out with the intention of dying from the beginning, there was nothing we could do.’
Whatever it is, isn’t that side more superior in terms of techniques?
Still, thanks to this, we were able to prevent space collapse and obtain additional information from the Doctor’s lab, so it wasn’t such a bad thing.
‘This whole place is a great teaching aid. Once you shake it all off and take a look, you might be able to salvage something else. There are quite a few items that seem useful… oh? That could be helpful for Howard’s research.’
Heinz crossed the empty space and finally entered the Doctor’s personal laboratory, looking around the messy interior with admiration.
At first glance, it looks like a garbage dump, as research logs bound in folders and even instruments whose purpose is unknown are scattered everywhere.
However, the items here were all precious items that would have tremendous value when taken out.
No matter what anyone says, it was either an object touched by the doctor, the world’s greatest gifted engineer, or a memoir in which his principles of thinking were recorded.
“hmm? This···.”
But at that moment, as he was casually looking through the research plans, a very familiar phrase stuck in his mind.
‘···Fully evolved organism project?’
It was already an experimental subject that had been put to good use once to make a Harley quite a while ago.
After briefly looking at the content, I felt like it was a bit more advanced than what I had previously encountered, perhaps because a considerable amount of time had passed.
“It’s far.”
However, Heinz commented without mercy and roughly threw the document on the desk.
Anyway, unlike the other side, which is still struggling in the design stage, hasn’t this side already created the ultimate work of art that has gone beyond perfection?
No matter how much additional updates were made in theoretical terms, it was bound to be laughable.
‘Anyway, there’s still a lot of work to do. I have to choose someone who will lead the Drakul remnants in Romania instead, and I have to hand out ‘pure blood tablets’ step by step so that those below me don’t get distracted…’
As he was quickly thinking about what to do next, there was no more Masquerade left that he had blurted out without much thought.
That was the day that ‘Duke’, head of the European branch of the Buncheonhoe, and ‘Doctor’, head of the general technical department, died.
Their control over Europe was at an unprecedented low.
What happened during that process had an impact on other countries.
***
No matter how confusing the world is, the strength of modern society is still the rapid transmission of information.
A high-speed network that can transmit information in real time even if it happens on the other side of the world.
And that had a huge impact on quickly conveying recent events in Europe to the far-off East Asia region, especially Korea.
Even though the incident occurred at an incredibly long distance, the facts were successfully made known without any loss of information.
In fact, the news was only possible because it had enough topicality to attract the public’s interest.
That has to be the case.
Isn’t it true that a single vampire from the outskirts of Korea is single-handedly destroying the traditional powerful European vampire clans one by one and absorbing their power?
Naturally, people had a hard time believing that fact at first.
But no matter how much we dig and dig at the evidence, the facts only become clearer.
In the first place, the Phantom was so famous that there were already quite a few pictures taken of it, so it was very easy to compare and analyze it.
Heterosis’ office located in downtown Seoul.
Jin So-ran quietly looked at the report in the office of the new building he moved into after the Alpha attack incident the other day.
“···When Lord said he was going to Europe for a while, I thought about it just in case…”
Jin So-ran, the acting head of Heterosis, a woman dressed in a neat suit and with her long hair tied in a ponytail, looked at the photo of Heinz included in the attached material and spoke hesitantly.
Well, anyone had no choice but to do that.
It’s only been a while since he went abroad, but how many national-level dark organizations have he already taken under his command?
And all of a sudden, we are in the same boat as those who live in a land much larger than Korea.
To be honest, there was no area where the Korean clan had an advantage in terms of scale or power.
Europe is not a land where vampires are strong for no reason.
‘Hmm, if you have Lord’s abilities, once you can somehow appease the leader, the rest will be relatively easy.’
Still, it is clear that the scale is different.
She sighed as she looked at the keywords that had heated up the Korean community.
＜Korea’s dark hero Phantom, accepted in turn by France from ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and Italy, the ‘home of opera’!＞
＜Went to bring peace to the night streets of Europe? After his visit, the nighttime crime rate in Paris, France plummeted (statistics included)＞
＜Europe, the demon world of vampires, was nothing to the Korean Phantom! The reason why the clan lords, who were rated at the highest level of risk in the international community, bowed down to a single Korean vampire.＞
Actually, it was okay up to this point.
As this can be said to be an element of Gukbong in its own way, the media, including the domestic community, generally had a friendly atmosphere.
The problem is on the other side.
It was mostly foreign media, including Japan and China.
＜The formation of a super-large vampire cartel originating from Korea encompassing the world is imminent. Citizens are shaking with anxiety.＞
＜A consideration of the dangers of demonic vampires. What are the fundamental measures suggested by the mad blood demon incident?＞
＜The warlock Hahoetal and the vampire Phantom, Korea is already a criminal republic ruled by demons. Eventually, the poison began to spread to other countries. Korea must take full responsibility for this situation…＞
“The Beoncheonhoe must have had a hand in it…”
Recently, Phantom has been showing blatant hostility to the Buncheonhoe, so pressure is starting to come from areas other than military force.
Above all, China was still their homeland, and Japan had not yet been properly liquidated.
‘They will never miss an opportunity like this to be strong against the Korean government, even if it is not encouraged by the Buncheonhoe.’
The problem was that the method was more effective than expected.
Anyway, looking at it objectively, it was an undeniable fact that Phantom and the vampires under his command were criminals who did not follow the laws of the country.
If we do not somehow reform this image, it will hinder us for a long time to come.
“What should I do?”
Jin So-ran, holding his head, hit his forehead on the desk and groaned.
In order to fight against the Buncheonhoe, which has already taken root deep in society, the best thing to do is to gather as much power as possible and respond jointly.
In that case, we should choose a route that is closer to the public rather than a hard-line route…
Can a vampire who needs human blood be seen as friendly to humans in the first place?
From No ble mt L dot c om
“Ha, it’s friendliness… Should we at least put out an advertisement? My kids don’t bite. Same thing or something. “I’m not some kind of celebrity, so there’s no way something like that would be useful…”
As she continued speaking, she paused for a moment.
Then, he carefully stroked his chin and fell into contemplation.
Is it really impossible?
Considering Phantom’s popularity now, it didn’t seem that impossible.
Above all, vampires were generally of poor appearance.
It can be said that this is truly a selection optimized for the entertainment industry.
‘At the moment, there is positive communication with the government through the Korean Returnees Association. If we do well here…’
Her eyes sparkled like stars as she smiled, revealing her pointed fangs.
Jin So-ran, acting head of Heterosis and general manager of external affairs for the clan.
Although only those in the know knew this, she was a former aspiring idol and current internet broadcaster.
