Chapter 212 Fall of the Empire (3)


    Korean branch of Arcadia Co., Ltd.


    Employees, who always lead a funpany life, like riding a roller coaster with big events, were again screaming silently amidst the endless bombardment of work.


    “Haa..... I''m really going to die.....”


    “After the meeting, another meeting. To do some personal business, then another emergency meeting. When the hell are you going to do your job?”


    “Is the meeting a problem... I want to go home.”


    “Recently, I thought it was a little quiet, but...”


    Crisis management and response team, who are on standby 24 hours a day when a major incident urs, and must take the lead in all situations in real time. They monitored the main areas of the two continents of Arcadia and themunity of Arpendia in real time and poured outints.


    “Act. 4 Rani. does that make sense? Other branches are now acting. 1 is at the end, so what did we do? Is it already the 4th main scenario?”


    If the game went normally as nned, the first main scenario should have entered the final chapter by now and the second scenario should have been prepared. However, due to variables that no one expected, the Korean continent was in a deformed state of leading.


    “Even if the pace is fast, it’s too fast. Headquarters, which just let this go on, was really shot in the head. What the hell are you thinking about?”


    “From what I''ve heard, the boss is secretly enjoying the current situation...”


    “Huh? What do you mean?”


    “Ah, that''s right. A guy I know in the secretary''s office told me about it, but I overheard a conversation between the boss and Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon before...”


    Rumors spreading secretly within thepany.


    It was the story that President Lee Mi-yeon was deliberately ignoring and promoting the situation on the Korean continent, which was heading towards the end.


    “lets think. No matter how much it is, is it possible to just watch the slime destroy the beginner vige in real time from the beginning of the opening? Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon begged me to stop that much, but the boss said he didn’t blink an eye.”


    “really....?”


    “Besides, that''s not all. During the witch hunt in the past, how bloody did you fight each other because you temporarily removed the death penalty for evil users? Isn''t it the boss who just put napalm on the roaring fire instead of spraying it with a fire extinguisher?”


    “Wow..... that''s what the boss himself ordered...? Does that make sense...”


    “So I mean! Sometimes, the boss doesn''t run thepany, but it seems like he''s just thinking about how to make the game taste good...”


    Employees whispered rumors about the president. However, after the meeting, when they found General Manager Kang Tae-hoon entering the office, they went back to their seats in amazement.


    “ruler. Gather for a moment.”


    Director Kang Tae-hoon came after the meeting.


    At his words, the employees of the Crisis Management and Response Team huddled together with curious faces and poured out questions to General Manager Kang Tae-hoon.


    “What is the main scenario this time, manager?”


    “As the name suggests, is a continental war going on?”


    “Are you going to work overtime for a month again this time?”


    Employees who were only informed of the creation of the main scenario but could not read detailed information. However, just looking at the name of the scenario, an ominous smell pierced their nostrils, so their faces were filled with anxiety that they could not hide. And looking at those employees, Manager Kang Tae-hoon opened his mouth with a dark face.


    “I think it would be fortunate if I ended up working overtime for a month...”


    “Yeah...?”


    “What is that...?”


    “There hasn’t been much change in Arfandia’s user response or monitoring in major areas, so what the hell is going on...?”


    Crisis management response team mobilizing all surveince assets against all kingdoms and empires on the continent. There was no bloodshed caught on their surveincework yet, so when Director Kang Tae-hoon said that the situation was serious, everyone''s faces were clearly embarrassed.


    cooong.


    “First of all... the relevant data has been extracted, so check it out. It''s a confidential document, so keep it secure.”


    One hundred words are not enough.


    Director Kang Tae-hun puts a thick bundle of documents on the table as if to read it himself. Employees scrambled to read rted materials, and soon their pupils began to tremble.


    “What is this? The Dragonborn heist case...?”


    “ah! This is what was recently posted on Arpendia! Is it the top of the GM...? They said they robbed it there, but why is this rted to the main scenario... such crazy...”


    Employees started to figure out how the main scenario urred while reading the report in real time. And they couldn''t help but be astonished to see the results created bybining independent incidents like a puzzle that were split apart one by one.


    “First of all, do you all remember the war that almost broke out between the Maroon Kingdom and the Pakel Kingdom?”


    It was the starting point of the witch hunt and the first case in which the GM Group directly intervened in the war. Since it was such a famous incident, all the employees nodded their heads in unison to General Manager Kang Tae-hoon''s question.


    “That war was led by Prince Vines of the Harmel Empire from behind. He was nning to attack the Paquel Kingdom, a powerful ally of the Barmal Empire, weaken its influence and be the next emperor of the Harmel Empire.”


    However, the n prepared over a long period of time copsed in vain due to the sudden death of the Duke of Bergen and the rampage of the Holy Empire. And as a result, Vines, who failed to solidify the position of the next sessor, had to allow Dmitri a chance to counterattack.


    “Prince Dmitri insisted on conquering the continent to the emperor and all nobles, and the Harmel Empire, which epted the im, is preparing for a war to conquer the entire continent, starting with the Bamal Empire...?”


    “okay.”


    “The reason that im worked is because of the huge amount of dragon bones that GM''spany donated...”


    “That was the most decisive.”


    Dragon Bone.


    GM top.


    Prince Dmitry Il.


    Faced with the huge consequences of this fantasticbination, the Crisis Management Response Team staff, after a brief stutter, started pouring out all sorts of curse words.


    “Damn it..... Why do these crazy bastards from the GM Merchants make this sadal by taking it to the Harmel Empire?”


    “These bastards made all sorts of issues before and got scolded for it, but they still haven’te to their senses.”


    “Chief, can’t I be sanctioned for this? I just want to hit it forever.”


    “These XXXX and XXXX bastards!”


    “Did I get dumped by my girlfriend for these GM bastards...? Ha...”


    The employees who finally identified the main culprit who created all sorts of family discord and danger in the love front.


    The time when their hostility is piercing the sky. Director Kang Tae-hoon looked at them all with a slightly bitter expression and said.


    “Once the situation has broken out, there is nothing we can do about it, so let’s try to finish this matter as smoothly as possible. Since the Harmel Empire and the Bamal Empire are going to be the central stages of this scenario, start focusing on user trends and monitoring, and report any abnormalities immediately. And...”


    The happy peace of the crisis management and response team was shattered in an instant, and they returned to their original daily routine of overtime and work.


    It''s because of GM.


    * * *


    The Korean branch detects an anomaly in the Harmel Empire and begins preparing a response.


    A message also came to Jae-young, who is a victim of this incident and also a key figure.


    [A new mission has been created.]


    [Please check the rted information.]


    “It''s been a while.”


    “Huh? What''s been a long time?”


    “Nothing.”


    A new mission that flew to Jaeyoung. Since it was the best way to obtain probability, he opened the shiny mission window and confirmed its contents. And his expression, which had been grinning, quickly changed to absurd as he read the contents slowly.


    “Eh....?”


    [Mission. 6]


    The dragon bone that was robbed absurdly. But the thing ended up in the wrong hands? The Harmel Empire is preparing to unify the continent using the stolen dragon bones. Stop their ns and get back the stolen Cervenian skull. Only in a peaceful way!


    -Get Kervenian''s skull back (0/1)


    < You cannot engage in directbat during the mission. >


    A newly created mission. The content was simple and clear, but the context waspletely missing, so Jaeyoung could only picture the situation in his head after reading it over and over again.


    “You mean the Harmel Empire swallowed my skull...?”


    “The Harmel Empire? Did they sell the lizard head there? ”


    Tan asks with a curious face as if he can''t stand his curiosity. At his words, Jaeyoung nodded.


    “Perhaps it is?”


    The mighty Harmel Empire dominates the eastern part of the continent.


    No matter how valuable the dragon bones were, a single user could not fight against a huge empire that could not bepared to that of GM. For that reason, it was a situation where ordinary users had no choice but to go from chasing chickens to looking at the roof of a dog, but not to Jaeyoung.


    “Hehe..... Interesting situation will happen again?”


    Tan smiled broadly with an excited expression and twinkling eyes.


    I asked quietly, hoping that Jaeyoung would y the game again.


    “To deal with the Empire, you need a quantity war? I know of a few guys who are well suited forrge-scale battles like this. How can I... rmend something?”


    Tan, who seems to be full of thoughts to suck on probabilities with strong body. Jaeyoung shook his head at him who couldn''t control his excitement with greedy eyes.


    “No, I won’t use the strong god this time.”


    “Eh....? Master, what the hell are you talking about?”


    Tan asks what that means. However, even if he wanted to use the spirit, the phrase at the end of the mission was restricting Jae-young from using the way he had solved problems so far.


    < You cannot engage in directbat during the mission. >


    ‘What the hell are you thinking...?''


    A developer who once told me to mess with the whole game by doing all sorts of things, and now try to solve the problem peacefully. It was absurd for Jae-young to act like this and that, but he couldn''t change the contents of the mission that had already been created.


    “This time we''re going to solve the problem without fighting.”


    “You''re not fighting...? The owner...?”


    Tan asked back, looking at him with eyes full of disbelief, as if he was asking what kind of nonsense he was talking about. However, at his words, L smiled and said with sparkling eyes.


    “Good idea! Problems can''t always be solved destructively. Are you determined to resolve it peacefully? That is a touching moment for me as a guardian angel.”


    L looks at Jaeyoung with a look full of goodwill while holding his hands together as if he was thrilled at a moment he had never expected. Looking at her with disgusted eyes, Tan shouted.


    “What are you talking about, you damn chicken! If you solve it peacefully, you won''t be able to extract probability from the owner!”


    “shut up! Is probability important now?”


    pug.


    “evil! This is real...!”


    Tan and El''s fight started again with El''s first bread.


    Seeing the two of them suddenly start tapping, Jaeyoung missed the timing to tell L.


    I said I wouldn''t fight ‘directly''.


    I didn''t say it was a peaceful way.
