Chapter 1175 – [The Changing World]
All we needed was time, and even that, we didn’t need much.
As long as they are trying to solve the problem quickly, they should not waste time because it is urgent to break into the Garden of Eden, steal the elixir, and quickly flee to the north. Maybe it should be good for the day I thought. A few hours at most.
And they started moving. Eve spotted her driving this way after getting into a car that presumably belonged to the owner of the house.
“We’re approaching the fastest route possible. We’ll probably reach the Garden of Eden in about an hour and a half.”
“Keter, what about the people?”
[For now, those who can be bitten are bitten. There will be no such people around to be held hostage. The game will be over when you enter anyway]
In fact, it may be possible to entrust government figures with their subjugation, but if the opponent is not an ordinary human being and is a top-notch master, it is difficult to subdue them with the capabilities of the Korean government. There is a peak master on this side, but the original suppression is not guaranteed unless it is three times stronger than the opponent.
Then, if you are cornered, it is the people who have been brainwashed by North Korea who can even commit suicide, so it is better to fall into a trap and subdue it for sure than to do that.
Well, since this is an extraterritorial area at the point of intrusion, we can hand it over in a state that is good for interrogation. It’s just doing what you have to do and leaving the troublesome things to the other side. Of course, the other side also has to show the people what they have done, so they give them something to do.
And after a while, they arrived. They leave the vehicle they used nearby and secretly approach the Garden of Eden.
Pretty fast footwork. It seems that he did a lot of light-gong practice. They soon cross the wall of the Garden of Eden.
“I’m here”
[Corpse Mushroom Spores Ready]
The outer walls of the Garden of Eden are made of wood. Its strength is, of course, hard enough not to be thought of as a plant, so it does not get scratched by moderate attacks.
However, the durability is only that, but there is no barrier or anything like that, so you can climb up and over normally. Previous intruders have come over in the same way.
In addition, the strength is more than that, because it is not made of a steel plate without a single groove, but a tree, so there are gaps and grooves to step on. Even if you are not a peak master, climbing is not a job for someone who has a hobby of climbing.
Roughly, we who were lurking near the location where they would come over were able to confirm their appearance.
Although the Zom model is outdated, it was armed with a firearm, as well as a melee weapon. Among the top masters, they are quite talented, and they are probably the ones who have killed a human Handas.
“It’s easy, wait”
“If you take only the elixir and go to the north, the leader will give you a big reward.”
“Now that you know, do your job”
They were just trying to spread. It seems that they are thinking of splitting up and stealing the elixir.
But it’s already too late.
“……..Uh?”
“What are you doing? Not moving”
“Very, Comrade Captain…”
By the time they trespassed on the Garden of Eden, they had already ingested corpse mushroom spores.
And those corpse mushrooms grow fast. At the point when it had already suffered from the power of Keter, it could not be resisted unless it was a transcendental person. It attacks from within the body, how can you stop it?
Mushrooms grow rapidly in the lungs and throughout the body. It’s been a long time since I’ve been occupied to the point where I can’t see my arms and legs.
“Quaaaaa!!!!!”
“Sa, save me!!! Oh mani!!! Oh mani!!!!”
All of them screamed and struggled to pluck out the corpse mushrooms growing on their limbs, but they couldn’t even do that. This is because mushrooms have already taken over the nervous system.
All that remains is an undead, wriggling body. They are now not allowed to commit suicide, and all that remains is to beg for death.
Growing something in a person’s body is a scene that can only be seen in horror movies, so I wondered if it would be a little scary for Eden to see, but Eden was watching it straight.
“I killed people, so I have to pay for it.”
“Oh, that’s right”
After that, I called someone else to arrest the armed communists. They’ll take care of interrogations and other matters.
Those who came to catch them were horrified to see the armed Gongbi who became a breeding ground for mushrooms while still alive. No, it wasn’t a frightening level, but there were people who saw it and vomited.
That’s how grotesque it is. It’s a look that shows that you can be cruel enough without blood, so it’s rather strange that you don’t show any reaction.
“Eh, what the hell…”
“This is what happens when you enter the Garden of Eden without permission. Just in case you don’t know, tell the higher ups, I don’t know if you become a victim later.”
“Yes, I understand!!!!”
If we ask if public opinion is overdoing it, we didn’t know if they would come here, and the Garden of Eden originally had an automatic defense system to subdue illegal intruders.
That kind of absurdity comes out just by looking at the news. Yes, high-ranking people.
I could interrogate, but Eden saw the suppression process, so I didn’t want to interrogate because it would be bad for education. Ah, it’s a pity that I asked if I could feel the torture hands for the first time in a while.
And a few days later, we were able to receive a report on the results of the interrogation of the armed communists.
“As expected, the situation in North Korea is worse than expected.”
“How much?”
“First of all, most of the leaders, including Kim Jong-un, were infected with the Changzhou virus. You have to regularly eat products from the Garden of Eden that you smuggled somehow to increase your immunity.
“But how does that happen? Did a special strain come out like Eve said?”
On the one hand, the Garden of Eden crops were not infected by the Changzhou Virus, but there was also a difference in the level of the Transcendentalists.
One side is only a minor copy of the by-products of the Transcendentalist, which is equal to the Heavenly Demon, and the other is the crops directly influenced by the Transcendental species Lu-Beana.
There is no way that the amount received from a subcontractor of a small business and a subcontractor of a large company is the same. Still, the effect is better.
If I ate even a little bit, it would have been effective to some extent, but suffering from the Changzhou virus…
“Rather, it must be the effect of eating occasionally rather than regularly. A mutant virus that cannot be covered even with the immunity of the Garden of Eden crops has emerged.”
“I’m going to fuck it. Why can’t these North Korean bastards be of any help?”
What is that, Ultron did too. “Things that don’t kill me only make me stronger.”
The same goes for the Changzhou virus. Like the principle of a vaccine, it overcame the influence of the Garden of Eden crops that were briefly hit and grew and mutated.
[That’s a no-brainer. It’s not that you can’t cure it, but if you get infected, you’ll need an elixir to cure it. The efficiency will be worse than now, and there will surely be people who cannot receive it.]
“Hey, this is a big issue.”
Of course, even with such variation, there is a limit in the end. It’s because that limit alone is enough to destroy humanity.
A Keter Elixir or a Mutant Virus That Can’t Be Treated? No, I pooped in China, applied it in North Korea, and sat down. What is it, if you see the communists fucking with each other, isn’t there something wrong with that?
Currently, the situation in the world is barely calming down the Changzhou virus. What would happen if North Korea’s mutant virus spreads in such a situation?
This time, the crops in the Garden of Eden are useless, so an elixir is needed instead… But no matter how much Keter is, it can’t supply that much elixir to 6 billion people. Even if it is diluted, the supply cannot keep up.
What do humans think in the face of limited resources?
Yes, it’s a war Because of the war, his share is not enough, so he takes away the share of others.
“World War 3 may be caused by North Korea”
“I don’t think so”
“Will you use your hand?”
“I plan to use even a little drastic method. I don’t know anything else, but I don’t want Eden, who likes going to school, to have remote classes at home.”
“I agree too”
Just in case, I’m thinking, don’t you think we use our hands like this just because we have a cause?
Although it seems to be going back, in the end it is for Eden. If there was a contagious disease in an unknown country and a lot of people died, you would just say that.
Eden is the first priority. The world is the next… No, the next, the next, the next… Ah, anyway, priorities are pushed back. It’s just being humble.
“Eve, there will be a lot of work to do.”
“It’s an opportunity to escape the unemployed, so I’ll do my best to help you.”
Zion and Eve made up their minds and began to step forward.
It is terrifying to imagine what kind of social change it will bring.
* * *
Afterwards, what the two did was to first adjust the contents to be disclosed to the media through consultations with government officials, and then manipulate the media about them.
Zion was in charge of consultations with government officials, and Eve was in charge of manipulating the press. To be honest, Zion doesn’t like that kind of work, but as a result, it’s for Eden’s sake.
[North Korea attempted to steal the elixir of the Garden of Eden by arming and infiltrating those with special abilities, among them extremely rare unmanned peak masters. In the process, Kim Joon-seok and his family, who lived in Gangwon-do, were killed, and eventually broke into the Garden of Eden, but were subdued by Mr. Keter and transferred to a government department]
Although we said that we discussed the contents to be disclosed, it does not mean that only part of them will be revealed. Quite the opposite.
Because he intends to expose everything and pressurize North Korea like China, the president revealed all the results of his investigation.
That they killed people while infiltrating South Korea, and that they were subdued, and that they did it because of North Korean leaders infected with the mutated Changzhou virus.
[Results of investigation…….We found that the Changzhou virus mutated in North Korea is a mutant virus that became resistant to the crops of the Garden of Eden]
[Yes?!]
[Now, wait a minute. What does that mean, Mr. President!!!!]
I’ve already been through it, so I know the Changzhou virus well. That poisonous contagiousness, the viciousness that can be caught again even if you get it once, even the traits that vaccines are useless. When the virus was spreading, it was a virus that was thought to be able to destroy half or even half of humanity.
At least, the appearance of Keter and the existence of the Garden of Eden somehow covered it, but what if a mutated virus that is useless is revealed?
Oh, of course, the story of Keter’s elixir is not brought up in this part. It needed some confusion, but it didn’t need as much fucking confusion. It’s still a big mess, though.
[Changzhou virus is a virus with an extraordinary rate of mutation. On the other hand, the rapid rate of mutation means that it evolves that fast. In this way, the Changzhou virus that spread in North Korea achieved a special mutation in its own ecosystem]
There are several actions we can choose now.
Among them, Shion chose the lesser evil, if not the worst. It will not turn North Korea into a sea of fire, but it is intended to show complete isolation and indifference.
[The current situation is not simply an issue of North Korea and South Korea. Currently, it is a mutant virus that spreads only in North Korea, but if it becomes contagious later, it will cause a global epidemic again. That is why we must prevent a situation that can grow even bigger by uniting not only in Korea but also internationally.]
If the situation in North Korea worsens, there will definitely be people who defect. No matter how hard you try to stop it, it’s unavoidable.
There are people who give up their lives for the sake of ideas and values, and vice versa. No matter how much North Korea has been brainwashed, there will be people who escape to survive.
And there’s no guarantee that they won’t contract the mutant virus. It’s only a matter of time before the virus spreads to Korea after coping with them, and it won’t take long for it to spread to other countries as well.
To prevent that, North Korea had to be isolated as a whole. Fortunately, it is not possible in other countries, but it is possible in North Korea.
[To prevent future disasters, the government is currently negotiating with neighboring countries in North Korea. In addition, companies and organizations smuggling into North Korea will be subject to control because they can cause a second virus outbreak.]
[What do North Korean defectors do!!!]
[Currently, soldiers serving on the 38th parallel are given new guidelines related to North Korean defectors. First of all, after keeping a distance from North Korean defectors, they wait until the disinfection team arrives, and after disinfection, they are disinfected and led. However, if you do not comply with the instructions…… You are permitted to kill]
[Yes?!]
It is said to kill people openly, but I have no choice but to understand it.
Because he is the president In governing the country, he had to think of the majority rather than the individual. Moreover, if it was an infected North Korean citizen or an uninfected South Korean citizen, it was an obvious story about which one to choose as a politician.
Besides, it wasn’t that he didn’t give it a chance. If you listen to me properly, I will accept you.
Of course, I wonder if the people who escaped North Korea will be fine because of the threat of survival due to the epidemic. Maybe many will die? Of course, that’s none of my business.
Are fucking North Korean defectors important? Eden is important. Even if we bring all of North Korea, it is worse than getting scratches on our Eden.
After the official meeting of the President, several countries moved quickly. Xion instigated it, but since they were also burned by the Changzhou virus, they figured out that if they didn’t deal with it, they would be screwed again.
The Korean and Japanese navies united to form a siege, and the Heavenly Horse destroyed them all, but some navies remained, based on which the independent Chinese independent state and the Manchurian people’s alliance… No, the Chinese guys were split into dozens and went somewhere. If you say you helped, the words are long. In any case, they surrounded it almost to form a siege and even sent an aircraft carrier from the United States.
They even cooperated with the surveillance of the West Sea by supporting the navy in Taiwan far away. Considering this, aside from gains, it is proof that each country considers this situation important.
Of course, North Korea did not stand still in this situation.
[Our great Comrade Chairman confidently said that if we don’t stop this atrocity right now, we will turn Seoul, the capital of South Korea, into a sea of fire where the wicked American agents are acting!!!!]
A familiar old woman in her hanbok chatters in a loud voice for her age. North Korea is also reacting sensitively to this situation.
At the same time, he does not say a word that the top of the group has a virus. No, rather deny it.
If you think about it, it would be strange that Kim Jong-un and other high-ranking officials do not stand out from the official line. No, if you doubted that, North Korea would have collapsed a long time ago.
However, it is usually the case that their threats work. Things were completely different now.
For example… Yeah, the atmosphere of the world when the 9/11 happened? Since it was a situation where anyone got caught, North Korea also made a statement that they were not the ones.
What they had to do now was not to threaten, but to give up nuclear weapons and lie down on their knees begging for their lives to be saved.
In response to North Korea’s tough attitude, the president came out and held another conference.
However, the atmosphere was different this time. The president confidently told reporters with a confident expression.
[First of all, let me just say one thing…… If you can make Seoul a sea of fire, do it. We have scars.]
[Now, wait a minute, Mr. President!!!! Could it be that the imitation will enter the war?!]
[Are you declaring war?!]
This time, I decided to lend my strength. In fact, I don’t like intervening in human conflict, and even war, because it’s annoying, but this time, war was not the purpose, and it was for defense, not attack.
In short, they are going to attack Pyongyang, and they will not help, but they are saying that they will cover it if a nuclear missile is launched into South Korea. The war is yours, the defense is mine. Since we live in Seoul, it is a natural behavior for Eden to protect us.
[I have received a confirmation that the emperor is helping the national defense. Even if North Korea launches a nuclear weapon, it will be shot down before it even crosses the 38th parallel. Also, we do not intend to go to war. It just isolates North Korea, where the mutant virus spreads, from the world]
Yes, what we do is quarantine.
It’s just an isolation area where North Korea dries to death.
Time will solve the rest. Even if China, which they used to do business with, went bankrupt, they couldn’t do anything and tried to smuggle, but now they can’t control it.
A high-class luxury item? Everything has to be brought in from overseas, but can’t you? In a few months, North Korea will probably run out of food and die of dryness.
Think about the story behind it. Because I have to do this anyway.
“I need to prepare some money.”
“What money?”
“If North Korea collapses, it will have to be reunified, so where do you think the government will spread its hands, since unification funds will not fall from the sky?”
Well, the world’s richest man is here. And although he said he was naturalized, he is a Korean.
When you need money, if you don’t borrow it from Zion, where will you go to borrow it? International Monetary Fund? They must have started protesting because the people experienced a lot during the IMF crisis.
How come we have to deal with North Korea for the sake of the world, but the problem is growing. The snowball rolled by China was poised to create a landslide.
“I think it would be better if North Korea just collapsed quickly and rescued only the North Koreans.”
“Yes, destruction is necessary for creation.”
Indeed, when will North Korea perish?……. But I don’t think it’s a very distant future.
As Eden said, it would be helpful for many people to perish quickly. But not tomorrow.
[If there is surplus land in the north, will it be possible to make a second shop in the Garden of Eden?]
“Ah!!!! That would be nice!!!!!”
“You could even build a big zoo.”
“Ooooo!!!!”
They said that North Korea would perish, but our children were only interested in ashes.
Still, it’s nice to see them as kids.
