184 – Ark (2)
“First of all, let me start by saying it’s nice to meet you.”
The scientist who stepped forward bowed in an elegant posture.
Raise your head and smile brightly.
Looks around the audience and reacts excessively.
“This, each and every one of them is so shocking that as an ordinary person, I feel doki doki.”
“…Scientist, please stop talking about strange things and explaining them…”
“Our Arien boss doesn’t know whether to joke or not. I understand. It’s definitely a serious issue, so it would be difficult to play it off as a joke.”
The scientist who received the remote control cleared his throat and pointed to the screen.
“Let me answer the first question first. How are you going to invade something that even a fighter jet can’t penetrate? That’s definitely a good point. In fact, considering firepower, it’s not difficult to get in now.”
It is just as the scientist said.
Silfia, her teacher and Cecilia, has the strongest destructive power among the three swordsmen.
It shouldn’t be difficult to open it as long as these two people fly in and attack in some way.
‘At least I can use To defeat it.’

But this is not a good idea.
“That’s right. As the water lord said, this is not a good idea. As you can see from the structure here, we have a system that uses demonic energy to produce a large number of soldiers when an intruder enters.”
“Rice, soldier?”
“Yes, even though he is a soldier, he is actually a monster who has lost his sense of reason. In any case, it seems certain that he is stronger than most B-class magical beasts.”
‘As the scale is so large, we must be prepared for a continuous war of attrition. ‘At the same time, you never know what will happen if you delay too long, so it is important to meet the dark side quickly and quickly,’ explains the scientist.
“Therefore, you must maintain your full strength and use other methods to penetrate the inside.”
“And the way to do that is… I plan to use 《Athena-EVE》, which was created according to the words of my benefactor.”
Arien, who was caught in the middle, grinned and sent a bewitching(?) Look towards Choi Si-woo.
“…As expected, benefactor. You have calculated this and asked me to build the artificial satellite Athena…Your insight is truly heavenly. I don’t know what to do with this girl.”
“……”
Uh, well.
It feels a bit weird to suddenly have everyone’s attention.
Actually, it wasn’t my intention at all.
‘Oh, it’s Siwoo as expected. With Namgoong Ryun who says ‘It’s cool~’
‘I believed it. ‘You disciple!’ Seeing the look in Master’s eyes, Choi Si-Woo turned his head and walked away.
As if it was natural.
“Anyway! I plan to mobilize all of Athena’s power and use the powerful artificial satellite Beime! To break through. Now, I have to answer the second question: what is the function of the Ark?”
The scientist continued his speech by drinking the water on the table in one go.
“I was really surprised when I first saw it. It was amazing that they could make it in such a solid and beautiful form… As an inventor, I was amazed. However, contrary to the beautiful and elegant appearance, the function inside is a terrible disaster.”
“…What function is it?”
“Nature.”
“…Uh…Yeah?”
“It has the ability to bloom the nature of an intelligent being.”
“Bloom…Ramen?”
“It strengthens the emotion of an entity, that is, the essence that can be called color, and reveals it without any control. It even has the function of transmitting it to others at a very high speed.”
“…Even if it is called essence, there must be something that becomes the subject. Young man. What is the core emotion?”
“It is love.”
Everyone’s expressions distorted strangely at the scientist’s words.
In the first place, I don’t quite understand what you mean by enlightening one’s nature.
Is love the emotion that suddenly becomes the subject?
The natural reaction was to be astonished.
“I-I don’t understand…Suddenly love? S-love?”
“…Isn’t love actually a good thing? You will cherish and like each other.”
“No, no. It’s not a problem that can be considered that simple.”
The scientist turned his head in an exaggerated gesture.
Soon, he shows a serious expression that is rare for him.
“The desire for love becomes excessively strong. It is not just a category of mental love. Lust and lust that are close to s*xual desire. This includes attachment to certain objects or phenomena, friendship, family love, and simply looking at a pet and thinking it is cute. “Even the most trivial things you feel become extremely intensified.”
It sounds good, but this is serious.
“If love goes too far, it becomes poisonous. Just as there is a saying about love and hate in the first place, affection that goes beyond the limit also amplifies the distorted feelings of wealth.”
“Uh, well… Then?
“Yes, it may be a funny story…”
The scientist sighed and turned his temples here and there.
“Self-destruction. Humanity will self-destruct. We will love and hate each other…And kill every last person left.”
“……”
I guess it’s because the scale is much larger than expected.
Everyone looked at each other with puzzled faces.
Most of them expressed disbelief, as if they could not believe it.
“…There is definitely a high probability of that happening.”
At that moment, Cecilia’s sharp words penetrate the audience.
“…Sir, Cecilia? Even so, it’s too realistic-“
“-Hmm, I’ve experienced something similar.”
“…Yes?”
“Have you all heard of the myth of the Sichuan Flower Fields?”
Most people blinked at the sudden question.
The one who raised his hand was Choi Si-woo, notary brain.
It was Joun.
“Uh, it’s definitely a story about a mythical flower garden managed by Saradoryeong and his son Hallakgungi… Right?”
“As expected of a smart and true wife, you know her well. In fact, there was a theme dungeon related to the Sichuan Flower Field.”
“…Really? I know Korean mythology doesn’t appear often…”
“Well, because it appeared so suddenly, it wasn’t officially recorded. Anyway, I also visited that place at the request of the government.”
Cecilia quickly skimmed through the following content and mentioned the most important part.
“…Sura Destruction Evil Flower…?”
“Yes, the Sichuan Flower Garden is a place where each and every absurd flower is placed as a source. In reality, there were That had the same effect, and the most scary of them was the flower called that.”
It was truly an ominous flower.
It was a dark red flower with no unique scent and looked like a devil-shaped flower.
“The flower had one effect. It had the effect of spreading a vast amount of energy, taking away the reason of the target hit by the energy, and maximizing their true nature.”
“…It’s similar to 《Ark》?”
“Yes, but in the case of the Destruction Flower, it maximized its appetite. As a result, most of the comrades who fought in the war ate each other and attacked each other, destroying themselves. I was lucky to escape the scene with a flash of lightning and was unharmed… But that may not happen this time. “I guess there isn’t one.”
“…Then really.”
“…Humanity must be facing a ridiculous crisis of destruction just around the corner.”
Everyone had complex and subtle faces as if they were thinking about many things.
A function that maximizes nature.
It is an infectious disease that spreads at a rapid rate.
Moans flowed from all over the place at the devastation of failure, which naturally came to mind.
Thud―
At that time, a sound of hitting the table is heard as if breaking the frozen atmosphere.
Yuan draws the attention of those around him with his palms.
“Then it’s simple.”
She flipped her hair and continued speaking casually, as if asking what was difficult.
“Why don’t we make an all-out attack right now? We must have found a way to break through. All we have to do is break through the entrance somehow, attack all the people who want to attack us, and finish it off in one fell swoop, right?”
An answer close to the truth.
Choi Si-woo noticed that Yuen’s fingertips were trembling slightly.
A statement that is literally close to bravado.
However, what Yuen said was a simple and effective solution.
“That’s unreasonable.”
But the scientist’s words pour cold water on this.
“…Eh, eh? Why, why?”
“Can you see the inside here? The part I circled in red. As anyone with a certain level of sharpness will know, the inside of the Ark is made up of a dungeon, a raid type.”
“Re, raid type?!”
《Raid》
This method is known to be the rarest and most difficult of the special dungeon types.
It was a dungeon where the number of people allowed to enter was limited, and the final boss of the Level was incomparably more powerful than an ordinary boss.
There was even a time limit, so it had the risk of being like a time bomb with no idea when it would explode.
“I think everyone knows that the raid type is forced to explode when more than a certain number of people enter. It’s still dangerous as it is, so we can’t make it any more annoying.”
“…Such nonsense…”
“It’s unfortunate, but it’s the truth.”
“Well, about that part. How on earth do you know such detailed information so well? Well, if the Ark is really a dungeon, if you look at it as an awakened person with , , And Abilities, the basic rules are: “I can see it, but…I couldn’t even approach it in the first place…”
“That’s a good question. It’s okay to be Jegal. It’s definitely natural to be suspicious.”
The scientist sighed and thought, ‘How should I explain this…’ ‘ I pondered.
“That 《Ark》 probably looks like I made it.”
“…Huh? Huh? You made that?”
“No, no. It looks like it was made.”
“…What is that…”
The scientist ruffled his hair.
“It’s not easy for me to explain, but even the construction method and technique of the Ark… Is so similar that I think I would have made it this way if I were the designer. So, what is the principle and where are the weak points… And how is it structured? “I was able to figure it all out. There is nothing easier than looking at a self-made worksheet and matching the correct answer.”
Choi Si-woo nodded his head inwardly.
As written in the journal, that “Ark” Was created by the scientist who was brought back to life by No-Face.
It was a fortunate part of the misfortune.
Thanks to you, we are discussing measures like this.
If I hadn’t done that, I would have faced the worst situation right around the corner.
“…Trust me, scientist. So…Back to the original story…How many people can enter?”
The most important question.
If it was truly a 《Raid》 dungeon, the number of people to distribute was the key to strategy.
The scientist responded quietly with a serious expression to the naturally gathered gaze.
“…8 People.”
“Oh my…”
“Haa…”
“It doesn’t make sense…”
“…Only 8 people?”
“It’s actually a small, small raid…Is it that big? Moreover, the boss has no face…?”
Despair and frustration.
The faces of talented people who have reached the peak in their respective fields suddenly darken.
Only 8 people.
With only 8 people, we must overcome all the trials of the Ark and eliminate No-Face, the Dungeon Lord and core.
There is even a time limit when entering, so you cannot even choose to take a break and proceed.
Naturally, the thought that it is impossible crosses everyone’s mind.
“…I’ll talk from here.”
That moment.
Choi Si-woo walked forward.
I patted the shoulder of the scientist who was looking at me nervously and expressed my gratitude in a small way.
“Thank you for the explanation.”
“…I believe in you, Lord of Water. No…Hero.”
I quietly stand on top of the fleet, leaving behind the scientist sitting in the chair.
Total of 10 people.
The most trustworthy and trustworthy people.
Choi Si-woo looked at them and slowly raised his hand to the microphone.
