Chapter 474 – 474. Ruler’s Skill Selection

“As expected, the evolution acceleration would be good.”

“Huh? Accelerated evolution?”

“No no. I’m talking to myself.”

Keker responds to my self-talk. I stroked her arm and continued her worries.

Evolution Acceleration is a skill that ‘evolves’ the target it touches. In this way, it seems to be getting stronger in terms of intelligence. The important thing is that there are no downsides to evolution.

‘It seems that the primitive regression comes with a decrease in intelligence instead of a physical enhancement.. Does this mean a decrease in body instead of an intelligence enhancement? Still, there are already a lot of stupid but strong guys in our base. Moreover, mutations risk anomalies control being impossible. Pure-bloodism… This is just not appealing.’

Therefore, we chose evolutionary acceleration as the elimination method. You can see that I chose it with a reasonable reason in my own way.

“Who are you going to try this on?”

“Huh? Why are you looking at me?”

“No.”

As I stared, Keker frowned at her.

I tried to increase her intelligence, but she herself refused. This can’t be helped

“For a moment. What will happen if you use this… On me?”

“Huh?”

[Huh.]

[Sure, such a method…]

“No, Indicron-nim, why are you reacting?”

[Kuhm. I’m talking to myself.]

What is this? Like Keker, and Paimon, and even Indicron.

Why is everyone reacting as if increasing my intelligence is a reasonable use?

Doesn’t everyone admit that I’m stupid in the middle of this fucking implicit?

I guess you’re right. Something felt strange. It’s annoying. No matter how frustrating my actions are sometimes, it’s like that.. Such a reaction.

Thinking that everyone was treating me like an idiot like this made me even more reluctant to use Evolution Acceleration on me.

Alright, let’s choose the next skill. What will I do because I am intelligent?

In a way, I was able to come this far because I was a little lacking. Since I don’t have much trust in my intelligence myself, I was able to actively accept the advice and teachings of my colleagues, and as a result, I became stronger.

And originally smart people suffer more. Because you have to take care of the worries that others don’t have to worry about and buy them yourself.

It’s comfortable and nice to just go around feeling a little lacking, rather than living with such a mass of worries. Maybe this is the path to true happiness. And there are already many people who will think for me.

Even just looking at Sataniel right now, you can tell. Usually she is nervous and sensitive in everything. She even takes her drugs to relieve her stress. She did it all because she was so damn smart.

On the other hand, look at Carshinax. Among the gods, Karshinax, who is especially low in intelligence and strong in strength, just always seems happy.

It’s kind of a blessing to be able to live without thinking as you please. I will reject the curse of knowledge. This is me People shouldn’t change suddenly.

“Next.”

[Select a skill.]

[One. Primitive Regression]
[2. National land designation]
[3. Mutation]
[4. Pure blood]

[Designation of Land: Become the strongest person who dominates a certain area and increase your influence, then designate a ‘country’. All intelligent beings living in the land designated as national territory become your people arbitrarily.]

“Hmm.”

This was something like the base skill of the Old One class. It was a skill that felt like you had to acquire it in advance so that you could use the skills that would follow later.

For example, like my permanent contract skill, it doesn’t mean much on its own, but it’s a necessary skill to use other skills.

“With this.”

I chose to designate the country. This is the 2nd one 3 more left. From now on, you’d better choose a little more carefully. The next time I get an Old One class skill is when I reach level 30.

You don’t know when you’ll be level 30, so be careful.

[Select a skill.]

[One. Primitive Regression]
[2. Everyone’s World]
[3. Mutation]
[4. Pure blood]

[All-in-one: The skills of the ‘Old One’ class are strengthened as much as the number of people. It stacks up to 10,000 people, and if there are more than 10,000, the Old One class enters an open state.]

“And.”

This was said to be possible through self-acquisition of secondary awakening. It is also a passive skill. Moreover, I already have people who easily broke through 10,000 people.

Adding all the slaves in Hell and America is already enough. Even soon, if we eat the whole Korean Peninsula, we will be able to welcome more survivors as our people.

“Acquisition of all people.”

You should learn this right away. At the same time as learning, the class became open.

Originally, it is correct to have such a passive skill unconditionally. How much did he benefit from the same passive skill, Manma’s Favor?

“Good. Next.”

[Select a skill.]

[One. Primitive Regression]
[2. Immediate disposition]
[3. Mutation]
[4. Pure blood]

[Immediate disposition: You will have the right to immediate disposition for those who have lived for more than a week on land designated as national territory. You can get people’s throats from a distance.]

“This…”

It meant that if I stayed on my land for a week, I would have the right to live and die. If you completely go into the enemy camp, sit down recklessly, designate the territory, stay still for a week, and then cut your throat…

‘Wow.’

It is a skill that is quite appealing. But on the other hand, to use this properly, a week is essential. It is not a cumulative period, but a week after it is designated as a national territory.

This was kinda bad

‘There are two skills to choose from.’

If you choose one here, you can only choose one more.

‘Mutation is a pretty good option now. I want to get it in advance.’

Since I got Evolution Acceleration, I wanted to get mutations as well. What would be the best option to choose?

‘Let’s start with the mutation and think about it.’

I decided to choose the direction I wanted to feel. In fact, skills are something that you can’t say for sure which one is better until you try it yourself.

[Select a skill.]

[One. Primitive Regression]
[2. Immediate disposition]
[3. Class rule]
[4. Pure blood]

[Class rule: You can assign the ranks of workers, managers, and rulers to subjects designated as citizens, and maximize productivity through class struggle.]

“This..”

You can assign ranks arbitrarily. But the important point is that all those who can already be called my people are slaves.

‘Isn’t this a skill I don’t really need?’

Do we need more classes in a country where all the people are slaves? No matter how high you climb, a slave is a slave. Moreover, production was always high, as disobedience to orders would result in death.

It might have been useful if someone other than me had eaten the King’s Seal and opened a subclass, but it was far from me. Of course, it might be different if you use it yourself, but it was like that just by looking at the explanation.

‘I’d prefer either primitive regression or immediate disposition.’

Immediate disposition was also a skill that was not greatly needed because virtually all the people were my slaves. Then go to primitive regression.

“It is done.”

Selected all 5 skills. These skills also had their own unique attributes.

[List of sub skills]
[Royal Road: Evolution Acceleration, National Land Designation]
[Degree: Top 10,000]
[Affair: Mutation]
[Paedo: Primal Regression]

With this, I can now designate the scope of my activities as my country.

Moreover, the Old One class entered a state of openness thanks to the Manju skill. The skill effect will be applied to a greater extent.

‘I want to experiment right away, but…’

There was no suitable subject to test. But you can’t experiment with Keker’s skills.

“Since it’s all over, shall we start soon?”

“OK.”

When I was in trouble about choosing a skill, Keker, who had been waiting quietly for a long time while hugging me from behind, smiled brightly.

It seems very enjoyable because it is an opportunity to monopolize me after a long time. Her purple eyes and hair looked oddly sweet.

I swallowed and kissed Keker. Soon Kecher’s tongue came into my mouth.

Her tongue is quite long. Maybe that’s why her tongue movements aren’t unusual.

“Town.! Hey!”

Hehe.”

“You mess around again.”

“But. Now or when.”

She puts her long tongue endlessly into my mouth and gently pushes it out, smiling at me.

Really, if this guy wasn’t cute, she would have been annihilated right away.

******

“Haha..”

Seongman Kang, the leader of Gangneung, the largest survivor camp in Gangwon-do, was climbing the road like crazy.

-Keeeee!!!!!

He was driven to his senses by the terrible cries he heard in the distance.

It was a monster first discovered a few days ago.

‘A cockroach the size of a human head.’

The first few were easy to deal with. Because it was just a big bug.

However, when they came in hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, there was no way to stop them.

Zombies can at least set up barricades, but these damn bugs have crept in through all sorts of cracks and attacked people.

For the survivors of Gangneung, this was a new kind of disaster. Moreover, it was an unpredictable disaster that was not known even by the update notice.

“Why. Why are there monsters like that… Whoa…”

Kang Seong-man caught his breath. His class is Guide.

The route optimized for survival was visible to his eyes. If you follow that road, you will be able to get out of Gangneung alive.

However, he no longer had the strength to go on. His legs trembled He’s already been running for 5 hours without a break. He went south like crazy to the point where he couldn’t run any more unless he was a marathon runner.

‘In the world… Where did those monsters come from?’

Kang Seong-man leaned against the tree, took a breath, and thought about it for a while, but nothing came to mind. It’s just that they incapacitate people, they don’t kill or kill them.

‘The really scary thing is… The woman who ruled over them.’

A woman with dark green hair. As she waved her hand, a wave of her bugs leaped over the car walls surrounding the survivors’ camp and poured in like a tidal wave.

‘Furthermore..’

The woman even killed the humans that the bugs had caught alive and made a huge nest of eggs.

And a worm the size of a man crawled out of the eggshell.

As the humans in the survivor camp died, the number of enemies increased, and only after everything was swallowed up by the swarm of insects, only Kang Seong was able to escape.

The sight of his group, which he has cherished since the first day of the disaster, collapsed overnight by an unknown monster must have instilled deep trauma in him.

And that was a kind of despair that weighed on Kang Seongman’s heart.

The feeling of not being able to protect someone dear to him and the solitude of being alone in the end made him want to sit down and cry.

And Kang Seong’s despair gave off a sweet scent that attracted insects.

Abyssal monsters react more deeply to human despair than anything else.

“Did you think it would be better to commit suicide…?”

“Huh? Uh… Uh… Korok! Coke!”

Kang Seong-man, who was breathing with his back against a tree, trembled his teeth as he saw the woman approaching him.

That’s the girl That crazy woman has cleared her own stronghold and has her bugs kill her people.

“This, this…”

Kang Seong-man realized that his skill had been forcibly canceled before he knew it.

Pathfinter’s unique skill, ‘bow’, was cut off.

This meant that there was no way for Sun to survive here any longer.

As long as he doesn’t create a variable, only Kangseong will die here.

“You… You… Why did you do that…”

“He told me to make a nest.”

“What..?”

“My master told me to swallow Gangneung and build a nest. So he decided to do it. Sorry?”

Kang Seong-man was at a loss for words to stop at the plain apology that showed no emotion.

“Still, you ran away until the end and made me move… So I’ll make a special one for you. Into pitch black darkness. I’ll carve it beautifully. Whoop whoop. I hope you like it.”

Aquinas Dana laughed.

He smiled as he looked down at Kang Sungman with eyes that did not contain any emotion.

Kang Seongman laughed awkwardly along with her maniacal smile.

“Haha… Fuck.”

Soon, his body was swallowed up by darkness.

It was the moment when Gangneung became a paradise for abyssal monsters.
