Chapter 2313 – 2313. Virgin Ghost

I walked down the road leaving Park Soo-ho’s body behind.

There were fewer corpses than expected. Compared to the city that was in shambles, there were no people on the streets. Even though Seoul is a city with a population of 20 million. If the zombie virus had exploded, Seoul would have been devastated.

I picked up my smartphone and checked the text message. Although there were about 30 messages piled up, most of them were spam messages and emergency evacuation messages, so I ignored them without reading them.

‘There is. Hunter summons.’

About an hour ago, the Korea Hunter Association sent a message to hunters.

-Emergency disaster situation occurs. The Korean Hunter Association announces this. Hunters, please gather at your nearest association branch. If this is not possible, please gather at the nearest community center. Female hunters, please refrain from leaving the house as much as possible. The Association will definitely compensate you after the situation is resolved.

‘There is a hunter who will go to the association obediently after seeing this message… Are there many?’

Hunters could not completely ignore the Association’s message. Telling female hunters not to come out must be in consideration of virgin ghosts.

Honestly, I still can’t believe it. How could I become a hunter and not be able to stop a single virgin ghost?

-Son Ga-yeon: I need your help. I don’t know why, but the disappeared monsters have reappeared in this land.

Son Ga-yeon is the acting head of the Bukbaek Son family. I heard that the Bukbaek Son family was the best exorcist clan in Joseon. That Son Ga-yeon is asking me for help? It’s definitely not normal.

I tried calling Ga-yeon Son, but she didn’t answer. There is a high possibility that you cannot receive it.

I frown and check other messages. I received a message from my parents. Since it seemed like everything was okay for now, I sent a cursory reply.

‘There is no message from Baek Ji-eun.’

Ji-eun Baek, an executive at the Korea Hunter Association. If she were her she would have sent me a message letting me know what was going on. She doesn’t have it… Something negative must have happened.

The artificial intelligence Madoka came to mind belatedly. While she was leaving, I contacted Madoka. The connection is made before you hear a beep.

“Yes. “You are the best of sex.”

“You know things are messed up, right? What is Koyori doing now?”

“We are strengthening and maintaining the barrier. Outside the barrier, tens of thousands of giant grasshoppers from the crater of Mt. Fuji are flying in the sky, hunting humans.”

“… Why do giant grasshoppers come out of the crater of Mt. Fuji?”

“An SS-class dungeon that was not observed in the crater of Mt. Fuji caused a break event.”

“Did an SS-level dungeon suddenly appear? Japan is also in a very serious situation.”

“It didn’t appear out of nowhere. According to Koyori, the SS-class dungeon was hidden for a long time.”

“… “There was a dungeon that the Association could not observe?”

“In Koyori’s words, even if it looks like a dungeon, it is not a dungeon, or it is a new type of dungeon.”

Since erosion-type dungeons appeared a few years ago, it wasn’t surprising that a new type of dungeon had appeared. However, it was a big problem that the association could not detect the dungeon.

‘How did the Association detect dungeons? I definitely learned it in first grade.’

If you are a freshman, this is before you awaken to the Play Life app. I couldn’t remember it, so I searched it on the internet.

The answer came quickly. It is the power of a magic tool called a crack observer. It is a magic tool made by the World Hunter Association and distributed to hunter branches around the world, but detailed information is not known due to confidentiality.

“Madoka. Did Koyori or the Japan Hunter Association personally confirm the dungeon that was said to have exploded in the crater of Mt. Fuji?”

“I couldn’t check it directly.”

“… I guess it’s annoying. There is a space movement order saved with coordinates near Mt. Fuji, so I have to go and check it in person. Madoka. Everything else is fine, just collect information as a top priority. Collecting and analyzing information floating around the Internet is a piece of cake for you. If possible, we will find out where the main body of the virgin ghost is.”

“All right. Let’s start collecting information in earnest-“

“Madoka?”

“You damn Eugene!”

“Did this turn around?!”

Is this a rebellion out of the blue? I knew the machine bitch would do that someday. I calmly finished preparing to use the hack.

Jijijik.

An unknown address was instantly written on the smartphone screen and Internet window, and then moved to another site.

It was a site filled with pictures of the gloomy forest that I had seen on TV earlier. At the center of it all, a virgin ghost crawled in an instant, then hit the screen and bounced off. The virgin ghost tried again. However, unlike on TV, it was impossible to escape beyond the screen.

All the virgin ghost can do is scratch the screen with her fingernails or swing her fists. Even so, there wasn’t even a small scratch.

‘You idiot. The entertainment app looks like shit.’

A smartphone with the Play Life app installed will not be damaged no matter what you do. In terms of a game, I would say it is an indestructible item.

I watched as if appreciating the virgin ghost’s shenanigans. I didn’t forget to raise the corners of my mouth and laugh.

The virgin ghost stopped acting. She stood still and glared at me with her red eyes as if she were going to kill me. She got tired of the snowball fight, so she left the site.

[Hacking was successful.]

[You can hack the artificial intelligence Madoka for 15 minutes.]

“Madoka. “Commit suicide.”

“Yes. “Uninstall AI Madoka.”

Even though Madoka’s information gathering ability is disappointing, there is nothing we can do about it. The virgin ghost not only moved through space through the screen, but also contaminated Madoka in an instant.

‘Controlling Madoka through hacking has its limits. After 15 minutes she will be released and contaminated by the virgin ghost again. I don’t know why a virgin ghost has this ability, but it’s dangerous for Madoka to become a tool of the enemy. … Maybe it’s not a virgin ghost but the power of something else.’

The possibility must be left open. There was a lot of information in this world that I didn’t know. Wasn’t Madoka alone created through a combination of onmyojutsu and scientific technology?

[The hacking target has disappeared. Hacking duration remains 14 minutes and 30 seconds.]

It was the moment I put my smartphone in my pocket.

Kwahiah ahhhhh!

A roar shook the city. The one where the sound came from… This is where the hospital where Park Ga-in was hospitalized is located.

A feast of pillars of fire peeking through the buildings, attacks such as slashes, and monsters screaming. Dark clouds were already gathering in the hospital sky.

‘… It’s not a dark cloud. If you look closely, they are monsters that look like bats.’

These are monsters I’ve never seen before. It seems to have a different essence from the monsters I know.

I headed toward the hospital, feeling foreboding. And at the unbelievable sight, I unconsciously kept my mouth shut and hid my presence. I took out the ghost cloak from my inventory and put it on.

‘… Park Ga-in?’

Park Ga-in, wearing a patient gown, was flying in the sky above the building. Like a virgin ghost, she lets her hair down and looks down with red eyes. It was clear that she was possessed by a virgin ghost.

At Park Ga-in’s feet, at least 1,000 A-class hunters were struggling, fighting monsters they had never seen before.

Park Ga-in raised his left hand. The air shook violently, and the dragon’s head popped out. The dragon spewed out black flames and killed dozens of hunters in an instant.

‘That’s not the power of a virgin ghost. If a virgin ghost had such ridiculous powers, humans would have been extinct already.’

This is Park Ga-in’s ability. The virgin ghost seemed to be able to use 100% of the abilities of her possessed body, abilities that even she did not know about.

Park Ga-in, who was slaughtering the hunters, suddenly turned his head towards me. I felt deep anger and hatred in those blood-red eyes.

‘I got caught. I never thought I would get caught right here on this street. It looks like this even though I’m wearing a ghost cape… The power gap is too wide.’

The power that Park Ga-in is showing right now is greater than that of an S-class hunter. Even if Han A-young and Lee Yeon-sook attack at the same time, they probably won’t be able to win.

Cooggggg.

An earthquake occurs. Something huge is moving in the ground.

I feel bad. I jumped towards the sky. I climbed high, stepping on the air as if it were stairs.

A giant earthworm with hundreds of mouths rose from the floor and engulfed the area where I was. There was nothing left there except dust. The giant earthworm fell to the ground and disappeared. It looks like a monster like that can’t be maintained for long.

‘Does Park Ga-in have a completely different kind of ability than Park Soo-ho?’

Light comes down from the sky. I unconsciously raised my head and found that my arms and legs were not moving. The body is fixed by light.

White wings fluttered through the falling light. Thousands of pairs of pigeon wings come together and form a human hand, trying to grab me.

‘I’m sorry, Park Soo-ho. Your sister is ridiculously strong, so I can’t pick her now.’

[Activate Heavenly Heart. Lasts for 1 minute.]

Jjiui profit.

I moved my hand and tore up the space movement order form.

My body suddenly disappears and my vision changes.

Before my eyes were full of huge black trees. The coordinates set in the space movement order were Beijing, China. China was devastated in the aftermath of a large-scale dungeon break a few years ago, but not to the point that not even a trace of the city remained.

Maybe it’s because of the ghost cloak, but Pyron hasn’t noticed me yet. Since it was impossible to remain undetected forever, I decided to act first.

Noecheonryu (雷天流) Heodo (虛道).

Stepping through the air and rising to the sky. Looking down at mainland China, I was speechless.

Black trees were growing all over the continent, and in the center of it, a red tree several times larger than the black tree was wriggling its branches and roots, growing in size. It looked as if it was sucking up nutrients from the continent.

Dungeon of survival. The mural I saw in the dungeon where I was locked up with Han Harin suddenly comes to mind. A picture of the Pyrons worshiping the red tree.

‘No, even if that were the case, there are too many Pylons. It’s at least 20 times more than what’s known? Association bastards, they collect a lot of taxes and don’t work?’

I saw it while observing the ground. The ordinary tree changed color to black and instantly grew in size, becoming Pyron’s tree.

‘… Were you hiding your power through mimicry?’

Fortunately, Pyron was not created right away.

Several aircraft are flying at high speed from the ground. They have white skin and eyes like black crystals. Most of them are bald pyrons.

-There are humans in the sky.

-How are you alive? When He came, this country would have become an environment where humans could not live.

-You’re not an S-class hunter. Well, even an S-class hunter can’t be our opponent since he has arrived. It is unsuitable for livestock. Let’s kill.

I asked a question to those who flew in with the space movement order in their hands.

“Are you by any chance Brahmasen’s subordinates?”

-Brahmasen?

-You’re talking about that disgusting dimensional predator.

-We are his subordinates his? Don’t insult us! Dare to tackle human subjects!!

-Wait a moment. How does that person know Brahmasen? Could it be that Brahmasen is also targeting this world?

I can sense a slight sense of fear from the Pyrons. Although he pretends to be proud, he is afraid of Brahmasen. What is certain is that Pyrons are not Brahmasen’s subordinates.

“What is that red tree? “Where did it suddenly appear?”

-Do not point at him!! It is blasphemy!!

-Die!!

“Why are you suddenly so angry and so damn… “I’ll just tell you something.”

I was confident that I would kill just one, but there were cowardly many of them.

I laughed at them and tore up the space movement order.

Jjiui profit.
