Reading Webnovels Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 195

[…] What do you have?]

The wall is getting blurry. However, it only seemed that way to Park Si-joon, but Lim So-ryung was different.

A ghost roamed near the wall.

She said, ‘He doesn’t look like he’s in sight.’

Park Si-joon put his hand on the wall.

The touch is literally a wall. I tried to beat it, but it didn’t sound like it was empty.

yes this is a wall But it wasn’t a wall.

‘see.’

The landscape reflected in the eyes with the pattern on it was different.

The wall faded, and I could see a dark passageway through it.

and footprints too.

– Kaang!

The problem was that there was no way around it.

I swung the sword as hard as I could, but the wall was intact.

[…] Are you okay?]

Lim So-ryung was puzzled. At the level of Park Si-jun, it is not uncommon to break a wall at once with a knife.

but it’s fine It means something is wrong.

“Hmm, ummm…”

– Kyawoong.

Park Si-joon looked at the wall and fell in thought.

It smells like magic. It’s usually not complicated magic. The vast knowledge in his heart was teaching him information about magic.

‘How to dispel this magic… … ‘

Park Si-jun closed his eyes.

It’s not exactly the same as this magic, but I came up with a way to dispel a similar magic.

He moved according to that knowledge.

The magical energy that rose from Park Si-jun flowed into the wall. And the magic moves erratically.

Kaang!

It sounded like something was breaking.

Park Si-jun opened his eyes. The wall is still the same. He cautiously reached for the wall.

Then he groaned, and his hand went in.

– King?!

Ishimi was startled. Park Si-jun put the guy on his shoulder and made his way over the wall.

The ghost hurried after him.

[What, what did you do? Is it magic?]

“You’ve bypassed the authority.”

As the Magic Heart attribute was raised, the knowledge of magic that he possessed also increased.

He borrowed the power of that knowledge.

‘It’s so complicated that I don’t even want to turn it off.’

It was difficult to unlock it even with such knowledge. It was such a difficult yet complex magic.

All I can do now is twist the magic a little so that I can enter it myself.

“Go.”

Park Si-jun entered the passage beyond the wall.

* * *

‘It’s complicated.’

Beyond the wall was a complex maze.

A dark, narrow passage stretched here and there, and finding a way was not common.

‘There is no sign of feeling.’

Fortunately, there are footprints left. Park Si-jun continued to move along with it.

[When did you make this? I should have checked the basement… … .]

Lim So-ryeong, who was following me, murmured.

Neither she nor her luck is an idiot.

The idea that enemies could come through the basement was natural.

So I looked closely at the basement as well, but I couldn’t find this passage. I can’t help but be embarrassed

[Moreover, here… … .]

“Near the association.”

Of course, it is quite far from the association, but it is true that it is nearby anyway.

‘It’s not any tunnel.’

But it wasn’t normal. Park Si-jun moved quickly by relying on his footsteps.

how far did you walk

“see.”

A light was seen from beyond. It seemed that this dreadful passage was finally coming to an end.

There is no sign of feeling Park Si-Jun moved faster and escaped the tedious passage.

It was a large cavity that greeted him off the aisle. A communal space that is only spacious with nothing special.

But there was something there.

“This……”

Park Si-joon looked blankly in front. All he sees is the gate.

In other words, it was a crack.

* * *

“Why are you here?”

[Writing… Se.]

Major Lim stuttered her words as if in embarrassment.

Beyond the ghost’s vision is a distorted space. There were cracks in the air like a crack in the window.

[Why is it here?]

The same words came out that Park Si-jun said.

[He, the association has a tool to track the location of the rift. With it, we can find new cracks that appear nearby or find hidden cracks… … .]

“But why is it here?”

[How do I know that?]

Park Si-joon pointed to the crack and asked.

[If it’s this close, I can’t find it. Unless you’ve done some trickery.]

“Then it means you’ve done a trick.”

It may be the influence of the magic that covered this basement. Park Si-jun watched the crack closely.

‘Small gate.’

Looking at it, he remembered the items he had.

A prototype created by the association, owned by a small number of players. where did he get the idea

‘Villains and Demons… … ‘

They said they made a device similar to this to freely move in and out of the Earth and the Abyss.

Did you use it to make it? No, it’s impossible to artificially create a crack.

“……”

Park Si-jun’s mind became complicated. Anyway, the footprint was cut right in front of the crack.

It means using this crack.

[Where does it lead?]

“Well……”

I was skeptical as I watched the cracks quietly.

“Since when has this been?”

[What? Maybe it was made recently?]

“Well, can you quickly create such a complicated passageway? It must have been there for quite some time.”

Park Si-jun looked around. The basement is quite clean. As if someone would come and take care of it regularly.

“Why is this so close to the association. Why did no one know until now. And who will use it?”

Park Si-jun touched his chin.

“Are only villains really going to use this?”

There’s a saying I’ve been hearing a lot lately. The association is not clean. And to the home of the villain who was previously in the logistics factory owned by the Han Min-hyeok faction.

‘The association’s bastards are also suspicious of the same thing.’

A ghost hovered in front of Park Si-joon.

[So what are you going to do?]

“…it would be better to leave this alone.”

[Leave it? Are you crazy?]

Park Si-jun nodded his head. His head was clear.

“You didn’t leave any traces of me anyway. If you just go, you won’t even know who came. Besides, there’s no point in destroying this. It’ll only raise awareness.”

There is no guarantee that this will be the only gate in the basement. It’s just a guess, but if you look around, it seems that there will be more in other places as well.

‘And… It’s already too late.’

Park Si-jun sighed inwardly.

Jormungand entered Seoul using this gate and will wait for the event to begin.

It is unreasonable to block their plans in advance.

‘It’s better to ruin the plan when it starts.’

It makes them think that no one has noticed their plans and makes them careless.

Better to take advantage of that gap.

“If possible, I’d like to know who’s coming in and out by observing here…”

[Then there is one good way.]

“Huh?”

Suddenly the ghost made a different voice. It was a slightly heavy voice that was different from Lim So-ryeong.

[Take this.]

The ghost’s body wriggled and spewed things.

When I said something, it was a little jewel.

three too. If you look closely, you can see that one magic has been enchanted.

[It is an item that allows you to roughly infer where you went by tracking your magic power. Throw one over the rift, and leave one near here.]

Park Si-jun did as the ghost said.

The rift greedily devoured the jewel. Next to it, a jewel was hidden out of sight.

[One so that you have it.]

The rest of the jewel was shoved into the pocket. If the ghost is right, it will be of great help.

“…First.”

Park Si-jun looked around.

“Let’s go back. We shouldn’t be suspicious.”

He hurriedly left the basement.

* * *

As soon as Park Si-jun left the basement, he called Han Go-woon. There is a bodyguard team leader named Kim Jeong-hyun, and he is suspicious, so be careful.

But he didn’t talk about the crack.

“I don’t know if this is a good thing to do.”

“Wow…”

Park Si-joon let out a sigh while fiddling with Ishimi’s horns.

If you tell Han Go-woon, she will unconditionally investigate the basement.

‘That’s not what I want.’

If possible, I wanted to leave the basement as it is, and check who was going in and out of it.

A large-scale investigation was not what he wanted. Especially if it’s association driven.

‘It’s too late to deal with it anyway.’

It’s too late. In a little while, the event begins. The only thing he could do was to cope well with the movements of the villains.

So she passed it on to Han Go-un.

There’s a good chance the villains will do something, so be careful.

“……”

Park Si-jun raised his head.

The time to start the event drew near.

Even near the stage where only the officials were there, a lot of ordinary people gathered.

Of course, there were a lot of players.

‘Attack this?’

There were VIP seats in front of the stage, and after that, the general audience gathered and watched the stage.

The place where Park Si-jun was was in the VIP seat.

‘Are you confident you can beat these guys?’

The face of the gathered players was not normal.

Inverse, Nemesis, Requiem. Several other famous guilds were in attendance. So were the rankers.

If he were the villain, he wouldn’t even dare to attack. It was that threatening.

“Is that the Requiem Guild?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Park Si-jun saw where the Requiem Guild was. A group of people gathered around a woman.

“Oh, boss Park. It seems like it’s been a while since I’ve seen you.”

“Oh, I should have greeted you in advance. I’m hearing about CEO Lee’s performance well through the news.”

“Fufu. Oh, the boss recently…”

The leader of the Requiem Guild, Seo-Hyun Lee.

A woman with a sharp impression that stands out with her white, bleached, straight hair. She was chatting and laughing with the people she had gathered near her.

As she was watching it, her eyes met Lee Seo-hyun. It was a cold look with no emotion in it.

“Wait a minute. I have a place to go for a while.”

Seo-hyun Lee asked for the understanding of the people around her and got up from her seat. And she approached Park Si-joon right away.

‘Why are you coming to me?’

Is it just coincidentally going in the same direction? I wanted to think so, but Lee Seo-hyun stopped in front of Park Si-joon.

Lee Seo-hyun’s cold eyes scanned Park Si-joon. It was as if they were criticizing.

“I’m sure you’ll see some of the most famous players here these days.”

‘Why are you half-talking me as soon as we meet?’

But for a moment, Seohyun Lee laughed. He was smiling, but it was an ominously cold smile.

“It was very difficult to meet. I sent out several offers, but they all ignored them. Can you explain why?”

“Did you send me an offer?”

Park Si-jun tilted his head. This is my first time meeting Lee Seo-hyun. He never received an offer from the Requiem Guild.

“I don’t know, how can I ignore you?”

“…don’t you know?”

“Yeah, I never got it.”

Seohyun’s forehead twitched. The moment she opened her mouth wide and was about to shout something.

“Oh, who is this? Mr. Seohyun Lee. It’s been a while.”

A familiar man appeared behind her. He wore splendid armor, and a man with a splendid appearance befitting him.

“…Shin Yun-woo.”

It was Shin Yun-woo, the guild leader of Yeokcheon.

Seohyun Lee frowned at her beautiful brow.

“You’re pretending to be too friendly. We shouldn’t have been that close, did we?”

“I’m sorry. At the former training camp…”

“Don’t even talk about your training camp days.”

Seo-hyun Lee’s attention instantly turned to Yoon-woo Shin. The two seem to have known each other for a long time.

I don’t think they are very friendly.

‘Did you help me?’

Shin Yun-woo frowned as he looked at Park Si-joon. As if to get out of this place before it bothers you.

Park Si-jun quietly stepped back.

And when I opened the seat, I suddenly became curious.

‘… What about their talents?’

I’ve been curious about it before. Park Si-joon slowly widened the distance and quietly used his skill.

scouting. Shin Yun-woo’s talent window appeared in front of him.

“This……”

Park Si-jun, who read the talent window without much thought.

His expression hardened. yea that’s the way it is

‘… what?’

Because there was a talent that should never be there.
