Closed Beta I Played Alone

Apocrypha 8. Hong Jooyoung (7).

Sierra Leone Freetown.

Tae-seok Oh departed from Incheon International Airport, went through Madrid, Spain, and arrived at his destination, Free Town in Sierra Leone.

It took quite a while, but Sierra Leone was easily reached.

But my heart had to be complicated.

To be honest, it wasn't absurd, because it was a very absurd story.

However, Oh Tae-seok finally set foot in Sierra Leone because he could not disregard his young boss's orders with only his heartbreak.

Of course, it wasn't just his orders.

as soon as.

'Those two eyes...'

eyes full of confidence.

Oh Tae-seok saw it in the eyes of his young boss, Hong Jooyoung.

Anyway, I was going out through the exit of Freetown Airport.

[Welcome! Oh Tae-seok!]

Oh Tae-seok was able to find a placard with his name on it.

Of course, given the ability of his own young boss, Hong Jooyoung, he was able to direct enough to that extent.

Obviously, the Myungjin group is one of the top five groups in Korea.

The young boss, Hong Jooyoung, was a direct descendant of Myeong-jin anyway.

However, a considerable number of people were seated behind the placard.

Moreover, the clothes they are wearing.

Oh Tae-seok himself was an office worker, and he knew how expensive that suit was because he had seen a lot of things from an early age because he caught the eye of In-su Seok, who is a close aide to the chairman of the Myung-jin group.

That said, the price of a suit is almost tens of millions of won to 10 million won.

There were more than ten people wearing such suits.

All of them are Westerners, so they don't fit in the middle of Africa.

First of all, Oh Tae-seok approached them.

And he could hear the welcome before he could even speak.

“You are Tae-seok Oh. nice to meet you. My name is Eileo.”

"nice to meet you. My name is Tae-seok Oh.”

“It’s good that there are no Asians, so it’s easy to check. Let's go first."

"Yes."

Of course, if it was the original Oh Tae-seok, he would not have followed suit.

Obviously this is Africa, and Sierra Leone is still in the middle of a civil war.

However, his young boss, Hong Jooyoung, uttered a mention that there will be people who will meet him.

And those who actually met.

Oh Tae-seok followed them in a slightly stunned state.

But Oh Tae-seok didn't know until then.

There are so many more embarrassing things left than now.

chamberlain.

"Yes?"

Oh Tae-seok had no choice but to answer the question.

He thought he would move towards the parking lot to get his car, but there were no cars where he got there.

Instead, there are only 5 helicopters.

And Eileo beckons to get into the helicopter in the middle.

Of course, Oh Tae-seok had no choice but to make a counter-question.

However.“The destination is far away. Also, there are no roads outside of Freetown, the capital city.”

“……”

At those words, Oh Tae-seok had no choice but to put his feet on the helicopter.

Then he opened his mouth, looking at a total of four helicopters on either side.

“Are they moving together?”

The reason Oh Tae-seok had no choice but to ask such a question was that, except for the helicopter in the center, the other four helicopters had a person other than the pilot on them.

Even holding the machine gun mounted on the helicopter.

In other words, an attack helicopter.

And to Tae-seok Oh's question.

“Because there are things that are one of a kind.”

So Tae-seok Oh heard Eilio's answer and got on the helicopter in the middle, bewildered.

In his head, while seriously contemplating his young boss, Hong Jooyoung.

After a while.

“That is the Canatu mine. “In Sierra Leone, yes, it’s one of the best diamond mines in the world, and it’s also where the 100-carat blue diamond for $50 million came from.”

“……”

Oh Tae-seok didn't say anything.

50 million dollars was more than 50 billion Korean Won.

And the helicopter continued to fly as if it had nothing to do with Oh Tae-seok's feelings.

“The place you see this time is the Pilu Mine. Like the mine you saw just before, there were no special diamonds, but it is one of the top three mines in the world in terms of production. Moreover, there are still many diamonds buried there.”

“……”

Oh Tae-seok still didn't say anything.

Until he turns the third mine.

***

After that, I arrived at Rabok, the largest city in northern Sierra Leone.

“The capital city of Freetown is the best place to live, but I thought it would be better to stay here because it is far from the diamond mines.”

“……”

Oh Tae-seok didn't answer this time either.

A huge mansion that looks like something out of a movie is also a mansion, but there was a vacant lot in the house where five helicopters could land comfortably, and at first glance, it had a tennis court and a swimming pool.

Furthermore.

“In this field of red wolves, there will always be 100 mercenaries here through a contract with the first PMC (Private Military Company). In addition, through negotiations with the government forces and the rebels that took control of the area in advance, autonomy was granted for the entire area, including this mansion. Ummm... some kind of diplomatic special

I think it can be understood as an embassy that is recognized for its rights and extraterritorial rights.”

Oh Tae-seok did not understand at all.

No, he's not at the level of understanding, but whether he's dreaming or not, he's already pinched his thigh dozens of times.

“Then come in. Everything you need, including the employee, has been prepared. Please let me know if there are any shortcomings or needs. For the time being, I will stay here to help.”

First of all, Tae-seok Oh entered the mansion.

He is among the many employees who bow their heads towards him.

And a few hours later, he interviewed people from De Beers and was able to negotiate a diamond deal with them.

Of course, Oh Tae-seok himself is ignorant of diamond trading.

However, even a beginner, Tae-seok Oh could understand.

He said that De Beers, who can be said to be in charge of supplying and distributing all diamonds around the world, is making huge concessions.

Anyway, Oh Tae-seok got used to it little by little.

He obviously made no sense no matter how much he thought about it, but the absurd thing was unfolding before his eyes.

In addition.

‘Who are you… who the hell are you?’

Oh Tae-seok knew for sure.

It is not because of them or because of Myung-jin that they are taking such a virtuous attitude, but because of their young boss, Hong Jooyoung.

Only because of Hong Jooyoung.

***

At that time, Washington.

The vast Atlantic Ocean exists between the continents of South America and Africa.

The United States, having confirmed the existence of an unidentified object or existence that crossed the vast Atlantic Ocean in just 32 seconds, did not stand still.

All available satellites were mobilized to scour Africa, the expected destination.

From the area facing the Atlantic Ocean.

So I was able to confirm.

superman.

Or someone with superhero-level abilities like those in superhero movies.

“It seems to be equipped with the ice ability by default. Of course, it wasn't just that ability. As we saw earlier, it has excellent defense and durability that allows it to move quickly through space and not take any damage from weapons such as tanks and attack helicopters as well as rifles. there are hundreds of kilograms

It is strong enough to easily lift an object over it with one hand.”

“……”

“……”

“……”

The president and others gathered in the bunker in the basement of the White House did not say anything at the explanation of Colonel Blair, a member of the U.S. National Intelligence Service (DNI).

It's literally like something out of a superhero movie.

Then President William cautiously opened his mouth.

Those abilities are abilities, but the most important thing is who they are.

If he belonged to a hostile country or belonged to a country that was contrary to American ideology, there was a possibility that he would become the greatest threat in history.

“Did you find out…?”

"Yes. You can find out where you've been and where you've traveled the most. It is right here.”

As soon as Colonel Blair finished speaking, a map appeared on the screen.

unfamiliar map.

However, since most of the people here had master's and doctoral degrees as well as higher education, it was easy to see where the map was pointing to.

The Korean Peninsula in Asia.

So some had no choice but to visibly frown.

In the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, there were China, Russia, and North Korea, which have close relations with them, which can be regarded as frankly adversaries.

But.

Whoops. Whoops.

The map that pointed to the Korean Peninsula gradually narrowed and narrowed to precisely their ally, the Republic of Korea, and only then did some frown upon their faces.

It's a pity that he wasn't a great American, but the worst was avoided anyway.

at that time.

“South Korea. It turned out to be a material from a place called Myungjin, one of the famous companies in South Korea.”

“Myungjin?”

First of all, a minister belonging to the Ministry of Commerce opened his mouth to the word Myeongjin.

It is true that Korea is an ally of the United States, but in the economic field, it is a place that is more closely related than an ally.

"Yes. That name is correct.”

"her..."

Anyway, the meeting continued for a long time in an underground bunker located in the White House.

Because the appearance of a superman was never easy to pass on.

Even more so for superhumans who are not at the level of “Oh!” but at the level of “Huh!”

***

A few days later, in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul.It has been a bit busy since morning.

Unlike my older brother who is an office worker and my older sister who is a college student, I was still in high school.

And from today, it is the day when the long, short summer vacation ends and the second semester begins.

Besides, there were things that made me feel better.

as soon as.

[The root has completed one level of growth under the influence of the owner.

- The power of the owner is still strong.

-The roots continue to grow slowly.]

Exactly the sound I heard in my ears yesterday morning.

I had to jump out of bed.

Obviously, the roots have been destroyed.

At the same time, it gave me tremendous strength.

First of all, using the cool-time zero blink at the sound, he got out of the house and moved to the mountain in the back used as a hiking trail.

And immediately opened his mouth.

“A root?”

[.......]

There was no change in my urgent cry, nor any manifestation of it.

But immediately they shouted their roots again.

Because it was a root that did not show itself well even when called.

“A root? Root!”

And then.

Peek out.

Early in the morning when darkness fell.

Moreover, the darkness is the deepest place in the forest.

But I was able to confirm.

Thank you, sorry, and the roots I missed.

Of course, compared to the time when it boasted the size of almost the size of a beautiful tree, it was very thin.

But it didn't matter.

Anyway, the roots are back.

Moreover, there was a sound that clearly continued to grow.

“Heh heh.”

So, a smile appeared on his lips.

Sure, the roots were nice, but no matter how easy it was to spit ice with my hands, use a zero cooldown blink, and lift hundreds of kilograms with ease, what I experienced was so real that I couldn't help but question it.

However, the root, the living witness, appeared.

Convincing proof that what I experienced was not a lie, it was not a dream.

So, in a complex sense, I had no choice but to feel good.

Anyway, when you enjoy the joy of yesterday for a while.

“Oh Jooyoung! did you wake up Hurry up to wash up and eat.”

My mother's voice rang out.

And in her voice.

"Huh. Wake up now.”

As soon as I answered, I went to the bathroom to take a shower.

At that time, going to school was hard work, but to be honest, I am excited now.

Moreover, at the school, there was Yeon Bora, who made me ponder over whether to contact her.

The lavender that passed me by and rushed towards the enemy, knowing that I was going to die with her family.
