Speechless.

- Well, I know there are no more questions, so I'll be on my way. The user benefits will tell you more about what happens next.

After giving a full speech on the planning of the fire system, he withdrew to a cheerful face that was different from the original one. And as soon as he retreated, a woman walked right into an empty stage.

- Lee Hyo Il.

The woman who made the introduction very briefly, was the benefit. The guardians of the entire North have revealed themselves.

After a while.

It was definitely a high value user, but the loud auditorium was a little quiet.

Lee Hyo-eul looked around with a vague face and opened his mouth quietly.

- I think you've understood quite a bit. So from now on, I'm going to tell you about this initiative, which relates to the Steel Mountains Mt. Fahrenheit Initiative.

Lee Hyo-in said that, she took something out of her arms. Something round, it was a crystal sphere.

Exactly!

Immediately, a cheerful sound of bouncing hands resounded, and a translucent screen was produced on the center stage. Magnify the image stored in the correction sphere.

The only footage I could see was of the steel mountains. I stared at the Steel Mountains feeling a bit subtle.

... If only I could cross that mountain range.

- Well, I'm gonna start explaining it now. Looks like there's still a little local broadcast going on. If you have any questions, raise your hand and ask me. Don't talk to me alone.

Then, a slightly annoyed young voice rang out sharply.

However, no user was seen asking questions. I think I can see it. People who know who they are are are keeping their mouths shut, and people who don't know them may have noticed something strange about the unexpected silent users.

However, there is still some clutter, so I slowly raise my hand and raise my body.

Lee Hyo recognized me at once and frowned very slightly. It's a very awkward face. That's what they do when they try to help.

“I'm Kim Soo-hyun from Mercenary Road. I have two questions. ”

- … ask me a question.

“Number one. I know that the Steel Mountains are vast and endless mountains. I think attacking a volcano is definitely a good idea. But I think it's virtually impossible to burn the whole area. And given the wizards' range, we'll have to get inside eventually. I'd like to know what you think about that, and the second thing I'd like to do is divide the four expeditions from each region, and see how the reconciliation plans that I just heard have something to do with each other. ”

- Aha... That's a good question.Thank you for clearing that up.

Then I realized my intentions, and Lee Hyuk nodded with a slightly brighter face.

At the same time, the commotion that remained everywhere was completely reduced. I didn't do anything else. I just got the two most pressing questions right now.

Afterwards, Lee, who had taken his eyes off me, looked back at the audience and pointed to the video.

- Obviously, according to the Mercenary Road, we can't burn every mountain range. The downside is that you can do it exactly, but it takes too long. The point is, now or never. In the end, you have to go into the steel mountains.

- Well, before we get to the point. Let's move on to the fact that the primary objective of the planetary strike plan is not to burn everything down, but to secure a safe area. … and what is the clear meaning of the safe zone? Is that what you're wondering?

Lee Hyo Eul hung up on me for a moment, then spoke in a bold voice.

- I'll cut to the chase. The Central Administrative Organization will build a fortress within the Steel Mountains. A fortress that can literally hold thousands of people, and can be defended by monsters at the same time. It's a plan to build a fortress after attacking a volcano.

At that moment.

“Ah.”

“Hmm.”

I could hear the sound of Han Soyoung and his brother bursting elasticity at the same time. It was the same for me too. The moment I heard the word fortress, I had a good idea of what the central management agency had planned.

- Some of you may have noticed. Yes. The Central Administrative Organization gathered as much information as they could in the last few months, and it concluded that the Steel Mountains were impenetrable all at once.

- Right here, that's why we split the expedition into four. While we have every intention of improving command efficiency, our real intention is to replace it. I mean, sequential attack attempts by region? That is, if the expedition that entered the selection has reached a certain point, the expedition will stand by and build the fort, and then the convoy will advance into the secondary attack. And we're going to repeat this cycle until we've completed the raid.

So this is what you're saying? When the first Eastern power enters the Steel Mountains and enters a certain point, we'll build forts there to ensure minimum safety. Secondary power then travels to the fortress where the primary power was built, and then the secondary power again attempts to attack inside while the primary power is waiting. Then repeat the process.

- Of course, it's not going to work in our heads unless it's a plan. Most of all, I don't think the Steel Mountains are such a decent place, but I need to get in there.

- But that's why the fort is more important. What they have in common with fire flares is, you have to go deeper anyway. I have decided that this fortress construction plan will be the least of your shields to protect you from harm.

Lee Hyo Eul's words are not limited in terms of building a fortress.

Because the Steel Mountains are not a ruin, they're a huge area.

The issue of this expedition is whether the first power can be kept in the middle well, considering it is a region that cannot be targeted at once from start to finish. You caught the benefit of it well.

Above all, I liked the fact that I did not think of the target scheme as a versatile one. In Lee Hyo Eul's words, the Steel Mountains were never a decent place.

If you think about it, a plan set up by the Central Administration is a good plan.

Secure as safe an area as possible, as far as possible, first.

It also enhances safety by building a fortress in a secured safety area.

Finally, stationed an air expedition in the keep, maintaining maximum power with proper replacement.

That is to say, I will combine these three beats well to get the most out of them.

What if the benefits are what they say they are?

The North continent will be able to rotate three different expeditions from fort to fort with the best possible power. (4 Except as power is reserved.) In addition, it has a military base that connects from the entrance of the Steel Mountains to the end. Its efficiency will be infinite.

The static flows.

The interior of the auditorium was completely submerged. I can hear someone swallowing.

- So I told you about the first plan...

Soon, Lee Hyo Eul looked around the audience with a natural face, and slowly opened his mouth with a smile.

- So, can I ask you a question?

*

The summons are over.

After coming out of the Great Hall, I walked to the central management apparatus, resisting the rising tears. The reason for the tears was that after the summoning, Han Soyoung wanted to talk about the plan together and offered a meal.

But I had an appointment right after it was over, so I had to decline. I wanted to postpone my previous appointment, but the central administration was not too busy these days. I could barely face Yi Hyo.

“So…. Allow Jegal Hassol, who has a unique ability to move, to participate in the Year 0. Chicks from the new user academy? ”

Lee Hyo said in a helpless voice with his upper body on the desk. It was a different attitude than what I was saying on the stage earlier, but I understood it.

The loose traces all over the office were telling us how fiercely Lee Hyo prepared to attack the Steel Mountains. Well, there are some snow shades that come down to the cheeks and get trampled on.

“Well, I don't want you to look in your sunglasses too much. She's still a chick, by the way, but she's a really good user. It's like slapping an old wizard's cheek. ”

“Hmm…. ”

Lee Hyo Eul sighed unexpectedly. Then, lying facedown on your desk, you turn your head halfway around, and you start going through the piles of records scattered in the middle heat.

“Hmmm... Sleepy.... User Academy.... User Academy…. I think it's somewhere here.... Ah. Found it. ”

And I pulled out a record, and I started looking around.

After a long time, Lee Hyo Eul's eyes slightly opened. Perhaps the name is unusual, so I found it quickly.

“There you are. Jegal seaweed.... Huh? I don't like your grades. No, it's not good. This is subordinate territory. ”

That made me feel stumped. If there is any data that can evaluate the newborn chick, the user academy is the only one who can evaluate the newborn chick, because the completion grade of Jegal Hassol was not very good. But we can't be sure about the user's information.

If so, only transportation abilities can be appealed.

“That's only in the past. We're in a lot of growth right now. And think about it. I think this ability to move can be of little help to the plan you mentioned to build the Marine Base. ”

“It could be... But isn't this a commercialization phase? You can travel a day's distance, or dozens, hundreds of people at once. You can't be that bad, can you? ”

... I did. Definitely not that far. I asked Jegal Hassol before I arrived because he told me that transport abilities are still in the early stages of development. Of course, we've heard that there's still a lot of room to develop, but at the moment we can't meet the criteria for benefit.

Afterwards, Lee Hyo, who caused her body to slow down, opened her mouth in a wet voice with fatigue.

“Mercenary Road. This is a user named Jegal Hassol. Are you sure you want me to do this?”

“Because I want it so badly, and I'm positive. ”

“You sure? Like a spike?”

“ ……. ”

Benefits of performing arts that are not even a pathetic gaze. I almost puked for a moment, but I barely swallowed and opened my mouth.

“You gotta be kidding me. And it's not a compulsion, it's a favor. I'm here to ask you a question. ”

“Er? Bhutaak? ”

At that moment, my eyes turned out to be just a flashlight. Then, the benefits of staring at me with a blank face.

Looking at him quietly, he said with a polite, dull voice.

“Hey, you know what? The first time you asked me to do something? ”

Did you?

“Anyway. That's not the point. I wish I could get some answers out here. ”

“Mmmm... ”

When he asked for a reply again, Lee Hyo was immediately troubled.

In fact, if you postpone the answer so far, you can assume that the answer has already been given. I'll just cut to the point that I shouldn't, but I'm probably a little cautious because I'm in front of him. Or I'm highly estimating my seaweed inside.

A moment passed by while keeping each other silent.

Lee Hyo, who had tasted it again as if he had thought deeply, immediately opened his mouth with a thud.

“Sorry. I can't even think about it. ”

“... I see. ”

“I certainly admire that ability. But if I could just take one look at that and do you a favor, it would be too risky. ”

“Risk?”

Doubtfully, Lee Hyo frowned. You look bored. Then he nodded his head loudly.

“First of all, you know why you're excluding Year 0, Year 1, right? ”

Lee Hyo Eul took out the lotus grass on Juju Island, lit the fire, and sucked a deep sip of smoke.

“Whoa. Now I can live.... Anyway, you're not the only one who does that kind of thing. Surprisingly many.”

“A lot?”

“Yeah, well, I get it. If the raid succeeds, all privileges go back to the contestants first. But honestly, just because you understand doesn't mean you can accept it. Besides, you know that because you're Clan Lord. It's really hard to respect an individual's will in such a large-scale attack. Now that we've established one rule, we have to put ourselves in the shoes of the group. ”

“ ……. ”

I expected to hear this. Because Lee Hyo-woo is talking about what I said to Jegal Hassol the other day. That's what's coming back now.

“Mercenary Road. I have rejected all requests from unqualified users. But if I let you do this here, what am I supposed to say to those users? No, before that. Leaving good and bad, those users -- oh, I see. Do you think he'll take it completely? ”

I think about it for a moment and shake my head quietly.

“Yes. Moreover, you are the only S Zero Clan on the North continent. As the eyes of the users are focused, it is difficult to do more. Do you understand me? ”

Yes, humans are not rational animals. Rather, it seems obvious to me that he will wake up to the penalty he received.

“Actually, I'd do anything for you. I've seen quite a bit of you, after all. And I don't think I've ever lost a penny listening to you. But this time I really see the results. That's why you said please. ”

“Mmmm... ”

“Mercenary Road. I really want to succeed in this attack. I'm having a hard time with the Steel Mountains right now, but I don't want to make a variable while deliberately causing this problem. ”

“ ……. ”

That's why I have nothing more to say. I've led Lee Hyo to the summons so well, but you don't want to create a disturbance.

In the end, no.

I sighed deeply. And I slowly got up. It's because I don't see any other way to say it like that. And even if you insist, you may be blamed for the entire North Continent.

I was able to decide to give up so neatly.

“Yes, I understand. ”

“Are you leaving? ”

“I've heard enough about you. I can't help it. I'll make sure I speak to Clan One. ”

“… Is that so? ”

Did he think he gave up too easily? Lee Hyo looked at me with a shivering face. I shrug my shoulders and turn around.

It was then.

“Mercenary Road. ”

Just when I opened the door, Lee Hyo Eul's voice caught me.

When I calmly turned my gaze, I saw a benefit that looked uneasy somewhere.

“Why?”

“By any chance... You don't mind if I say no, do you? ”

“Not really?”

“Then…. Just in case... ”

Lee Hyo-eul suddenly shut up.

And I thought about it for a moment, but then I opened my mouth in an awkward voice.

“Strange things... Don't?”

“What are you talking about? What are the odds? ”

“For example. Previously, the Koran was defeated.... ”

“Bullshit.”

I said, what are you talking about?

I cut and slammed, and immediately walked out the door.

As I wrote today, I heard some questions from my readers.

If you live in your readers' hall plains. But what if I can't go to the Steel Mountains? (The privilege of the Steel Mountains is clear. You will be awarded Stat Points and subsequently will be given full priority over the New Continent.)

What would you think if a zero-year old user of the Mercenary Clan told you that chicks were awarded tickets? Heh heh
