Chapter 137: Chapter 137
-At one time, the entire island of Fa?ade Republic almost became a giant gate.
The speech of the President of the Republic of Fasad was spread to the people of Fasad, who fled to various parts of the world on the news.
-But the people of the fa?ade! You can rest assured now. The Ice Age is over!
As the speech said, starting from the moment the Apostle of Itarim disappeared, countless gates with holes like rags were quickly closing on the facade.
Because of that, the bitter cold that flowed through those holes disappeared completely.
The area of the field type dungeon, which had been eroded by magical power, also rapidly decreased.
– The ice age is over!
Like the president's speech, the fa?ade is now secure.
Of course, not all gates were closed.
Only one.
Even after the dimension stabilized, there was still only one gate leading to the Glacier Dungeon.
In order to close the gate, they had to subdue the demons in the Glacier Dungeon.
However, since Suho had bought the exclusive right to the dungeon this time, no one would be able to enter the Glacier Dungeon without his permission.
In short, it meant that the Glacier Dungeon would continue as an independent district for the Ice Elves.
However, in such a state, the people of the fa?ade were still insecure.
Because you have to live with a time bomb that doesn't know when the dungeon break will explode again.
So what was needed was the existence of the scavenger guild.
The largest guild in the US, the Scavenger Guild, has announced that it will continue to mine the glacier dungeon while protecting it.
Now, all the people of Fa?ade who had been evacuated abroad should be able to return safely.
– On behalf of the entire nation, I would like to thank the Scavenger Guild for saving the Fa?ade Republic.
[Kieek! They are like ignorant fools!]
On the way to the airport, Ver gnashed his teeth as if he didn't like President Fasad's speech.
[Really, there is nothing to be ashamed of!]
[That's right, Master. They didn't even know who really saved them, and they only thanked the mothers!]
"It's because that was the contract in the first place. And besides, it's to our advantage."
Despite knowing the details of the contract, Suho only smiled at the sight of Ver and Quay getting along well.
The scavenger guild immediately officially announced that they had conquered the Glacier Dungeon, and starting with this, they would be able to enjoy such sweet intangible benefits in the future.
As Laura planned, the scavenger guild succeeded in raising the scavenger's brand value in return for taking on all sorts of chores for the glacier dungeon.
On the other hand, the existence of Cha Hae-in, who made a decisive contribution to solving the glacier dungeon, and Suho, who owned the exclusive right to the actual glacier dungeon, were completely hidden on the surface.
This was entirely at the request of both of them.
It was because they were two people who didn't like to be in the spotlight, and they needed to divert their attention right now.
"Don't complain too much. If another Itarim apostle is secretly moving somewhere, it's to direct their eyes to the scavenger guild."
Thomas Andre, who came out to see Suho off at the airport, smiled and soothed Ver and Quay.
Then he pointed at Suho next to him with his thumb and said.
"Leave it to me. I'll definitely be your shield until this kid gets as strong as his father. This time, I was embarrassingly inconvenient, but after all, I was the strongest tanker in the human race."
In fact, Thomas Andre was a tanker who even took the breath of the red dragon Kamish, who was said to be the strongest magician, with his bare body, so it was not enough to be called mankind's strongest tanker.
[What is mankind's strongest?]
[Don't go somewhere else and be bewitched.]
"Huh, these guys? Do you keep doing this embarrassingly? Don't shadow soldiers these days even know how to respect the elderly?"
Thomas Andre only giggled at the words of Ber and Quay, who responded right away without losing.
and.
"Suho."
I saw Thomas Andre's big, rough hand shaking Suho's hand.
"Thank you."
Sensing the emotion implied in that short word, Suho lifted his head and looked up at his face.
A relieved expression appeared on the face of a muscular old man whose gray hair was turned into an all-white.
It was the look in the eyes of a man who solved a long-standing homework and decided on a direction to walk forward.
Suho smiled and grabbed the huge hand.
"yes. me too."
That hand was as hard as stone, which surprised Suho a little.
The texture of these calloused hands was a badge of honor that gave us an idea of how grueling this man had been through training.
At the same time, this callus was also a weapon developed to the extreme so as not to catch the opponent or miss the weapon in battle.
But that wasn't the reason why Suho was surprised.
'My father's hand... was like this.'
No, it would have been worse if it had been worse, not less.
Compared to him, it was Suho who briefly looked down at his hands that were still swollen.
To him, Laura raised her glasses and said.
"Sung Soo-ho Hunter, please create a guild as soon as possible as soon as you return to Korea."
"Ah yes."
"Please, please. As you know, our contract is between guilds. Our contract will take effect in earnest only when the Sung Guardian Hunters establish a guild."
Dungeon exclusive rights were, in principle, impossible for individuals to purchase.
Now, the scavenger took care of it temporarily, but if Suho didn't officially create a guild, it would be difficult.
"I heard that in order to establish a guild in Korea, you must have at least 20 dungeon raids. If there is anything we can help with in this area..." "
Oh, you don't have to worry about that part. I have found another good way."
"...?"
At Suho's words, Laura put on a puzzled expression for a moment, then recalled a piece of information in her head.
Although it is a method that is not used very well, there was a way to supplement it with experience other than dungeon raids in Korea's guild establishment conditions.
"Are you going to fulfill the career requirements instead of hunting villains?"
"Yes, that's right."
At Suho's answer, Laura made an even more puzzled expression.
"Wouldn't that take longer? It's not like villains with high bounty that are recognized for their careers just roam the streets..."
"Oh, there are. these days."
"...?"
* * *
I came back to Korea.
From the moment Suho got off Yoo Jin-ho's private plane, he could feel the changed atmosphere of Korea.
-The next news is about Jisan Prison.
A newscaster reporting urgent news with a serious expression was being broadcast throughout the airport.
-Jisan Prison is a villan specialized camp established by the Hunter Association two years ago
. It's not like that, but the country is very upset these days because of that."
Yoo Jin-ho, who was walking beside Suho, clicked his tongue as he watched the news.
Korea was originally famous worldwide as a country with good security.
It was all thanks to the villain countermeasures that Woo Jin-cheol, the president of the association, intensively operated as soon as he created the association, and the representative example was 'Jisan Prison'.
"Suho, you weren't very interested in these things, so I don't know, but Jisan Prison wasn't originally a prison specializing in villains."
As the representative of a conglomerate, Yoo Jin-ho was in a position where he had no choice but to be sensitive to what was going on in the world.
So I was very familiar with the early days of Jisan Correctional Institution, which was created by Woo Jin-cheol, the president of the association.
"Our country's prisons are classified from S1 to S5 according to the security level. Among them, Jisan Correctional Institution was a prison for S5 prisoners with the highest sentence."
"You mean it wasn't a prison that only confined villains."
"okay. But, strangely, the prisoners who were put there by the president of the association, Woo Jin-cheol, began to awaken one by one in it, right?"
At first, everyone dismissed it as a coincidence.
Because there is no law against awakening as prisoners.
However, the awakening of the prisoners continued to be repeated after that, and most of the inmates at Jisan Correctional Institution had turned into awakened people.
"At that time, I talked a lot. What is the site of that prison like? It is said that there is actually a secret hidden in it that can make ordinary people into Awakeners...."
Criminals who wanted to become Awakeners at the time went out on their own to claim that they wanted to be imprisoned in Jisan Prison. Even the guys came out.
However, in the early days of the cataclysm, most of the criminals arrested by the head of the association, Woo Jin-cheol, awakened, and those imprisoned did not wake up no matter how long they waited.
They decided to be imprisoned in Jisan Prison for no reason, and ended up living in prison trembling among the tough villains.
As the laughable story spread, rumors circulated that the foundation of the Jisan Correctional Center was not good, and that Woo Jin-cheol, the president of the association, had the skill to recognize a person who would become an awakened person
... I'll give it a go."
Yoo Jin-ho laughed and muttered.
It was not difficult to confirm that those who had awakened as hunters in the vanished time zone would awaken as hunters in the present time zone, even with a little cross-validation.
Even those who were S-class hunters were equally awakened as S-class hunters and E-class hunters, so it was not difficult to be sure.
So, Woo Jin-cheol, the head of the association, classified those who would awaken as hunters among the criminals and drove them all to Jisan Prison.
Even if they wake up in the future, gather them in one place so that they can be managed.
"The problem is that I couldn't figure out all of the criminals' abilities in detail."
The result was that.
-Awakened prisoners who rioted and escaped from Jisan Prison two days ago are still missing.
-The association formally defines them as villains and requests urgent cooperation from all hunters across the country
.
"Maybe the information that the president of the association went out to support North Korea was leaked. Not only the president of the association, but also the association's S-class hunters were put in there together, so they must have considered this an opportunity."
Of course, since it is a place to house dangerous villains, information was thoroughly controlled, but since it is unknown what abilities the villains might have awakened, there may have been some method.
And through that method, what if the information that Jin-chul Woo and the S-class hunter of the association were absent came to them?
It was highly likely that the villains decided that now was the right time to break out.
"We are also judging that way, Hunter Seongsuho."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
When Suho and Jinho Yu turned their heads, team leader Han Jae-hyeok of the association was there to meet Suho.
"I am so glad you came back safely."
Team leader Han Jae-hyeok let out a sigh of relief as soon as he saw Suho.
These days, large overseas guilds are increasingly taking out useful talent in Korea.
However, seeing Suho kidnapped(?) by Thomas Andre right in front of his eyes, I wondered if he was going to join the American scavenger guild.
As team leader Han Jae-hyeok, it was quite heartbreaking.
He even witnessed Suho fighting Thomas Andre on equal footing, so it was regrettable that such a Hunter was taken away by the United States.
'The scavenger guild must have offered huge conditions, but to refuse it and come back.'
Team leader Han Jae-hyeok expressed his gratitude to Suho for his patriotism.
"Fortunately, you came on time."
"Of course you should come. In this situation, Hunter Sung Soo-ho is helping as a bounty hunter."
Han Jae-hyeok, the team leader, had an expression of regret.
Just in time, the news about Jisan Prison was continuing on the news.
– Meanwhile, the person who led this great escape turned out to be C-level villain 'Hwang Dong-seok', and he is now...
"So, so."
Turning his back on the news, Suho's gaze at team leader Han Jae-hyeok had already changed to that of a hunter aiming for prey.
"How many people do I have to catch before I can become a guild leader?"
