Chapter 229 – [The Last Days of China]

Nam-seok Lee, the 19th President of the Republic of Korea, who was struggling with how to deal with the worst and Zion, which became the center of the typhoon, spit out the coffee he was drinking when he saw a huge spacecraft broadcast live.

“Ouch?!?!”

No spaceship?! Why spacecraft?! Why?!

Some of the Force users made it seem like they were hallucinating, but what was reflected on the screen was still huge. No matter how you think about it, it’s not an illusion.

Moreover, among the reports that had already been uploaded, there was also dubious information that Shion was an alien. If you combine the story of the spaceship and the alien, who are mercilessly filming in confusion, the credibility increases.

“President!!!”

“……I already know. There’s no need to fuss like that. In the first place, just looking out the window catches my eye, isn’t it creepy?”

“Oh, sorry!!!”

The aide came running in a hurry. To be honest, it’s not unusual, even if it’s just that.

Although he was embarrassed, he is still the head of a country, and the people under him are experts in their own right. If it was sudden, it might have taken time to deal with it, but since it was caused by someone who had been watching from the beginning, I quickly started investigating and analyzing it.

Because a time bomb exploded that you didn’t know existed and a time bomb that you already knew exploded, response and response are different.

“The Capital Defense Command says that nothing can be detected by radar or other search equipment at the moment.

“Hmm……”

“If you look at the testimonies of other agents who were in the field and the photos taken, it is not hallucinations. Moreover, it is not possible to determine the detailed performance of the current situation, but if a spaceship of that size is floating without any propulsion device, anti-gravity technology It is very likely that he entered

Inevitably, in order to defy and move against the force of gravity, propellant is required through the oxidation of fuel. That is why it is said that the repulsor gun, which can fly only with energy, including Iron Man’s arc reactor, is a product of imagination.

If it’s flying without propellant and without any propulsion, it’s almost certainly anti-gravity technology.

“Even anti-gravity technology is absurd, but saying that there is no weapon in a spaceship like that is rather strange. I can’t figure it out by looking at it myself, but…”

“No matter what I try, floating in the middle of Seoul is a problem.”

The reason why China did not use nuclear weapons in spite of the worst situation was because that place was Beijing, the capital. No matter how much half of it is destroyed, it is a waste of what remains, and we cannot recklessly blow nuclear weapons because of radiation problems.

It is the same now. Since the opponent is in the middle of Seoul, there is no way to respond. Even if you do something after evacuating in consideration of human casualties, property damage is highly likely to occur.

“……A certain conclusion has been reached.”

“President?”

“What can we do in a situation like this?”

President Lee Nam-seok sighed and quickly grasped the reality.

One is a monster who destroyed the capital of a country and even killed all its troops, and the other is a person with advanced technology and a spaceship that is unknown to that level.

If you turn it into an enemy, a small country like Korea would end up looking like China, which would take less than a few days.

“And now the stock market is fluctuating.”

“No, why all of a sudden?”

“…It seems that the rumors about disposing of property were not a lie. All of the stocks, land, and buildings that were owned are being sold and disposed of quickly.”

Thanks to this, the stock market was screaming because it couldn’t fluctuate.

Other overseas investors are also urgently stepping in, and among them there is a stake in Daesung Group, so it is a plan to secure all the funds that do not exist. Considering the social and economic ramifications, the quality is much worse than stock price manipulation.

“It’s not good, this is really bad”

President Lee Nam-seok is not an idiot either.

I know I have that kind of technology, but money is not an issue. The reason she needed money in the first place was because she needed it to live in this society.

But now I’m disposing of all that money. If she does what she said, she will leave this earth after paying the huge amount to the bereaved families of the victims of the Chinese Crisis.

“Set a date for the hearing and read public opinion. We must not miss them. The only advantage Korea has is that they are citizens of this country.”

The worst is a slayer who kills people. He killed himself with his own hands, so in some ways he was worse than Hitler. There were public opinion and ethical problems not to punish him.

However, the merit of embracing rather than punishing is so great.

Even what has been shown so far is attractive enough, but if you have more than that, you have to hold on to it.

“What about America and Russia?”

“I’m requesting a visit to the worst person currently imprisoned… What would you like to do?”

“There is no need to buy a backlash. No matter how good the technology is, it is too big food for a small country like Korea to eat.”

“All right”

“And it would be better to talk separately about the hearing, so arrange a seat with Congressman Kim Yong-jin.”

“Yes, I’ll arrange a table for dinner in the near future.”

The worst is Kim Yong-jin, a member of the National Assembly, whom he met at the birthday party for the chairman of Daesung Group. As he is a powerful member of the ruling party, it is much easier to set the direction of the hearing if he talks about it.

A corrupt politician ruins his life by being greedy, he is not an idiot. You know perfectly well which side will benefit from the current situation.

“If you can coax the two of them after the hearing, we might be able to try space travel before I die.”

“That’s what I’m looking forward to.”

Imagining a future as positive as possible, President Lee Nam-seok smiled softly.

While turning my head in the future that may not come.

*        *    *

I was watching the outside situation on my cell phone, and I was playing while eating three meals a day.

Hey, that’s good too The food comes out well just because they take care of the human rights of the offspring of criminals. How is it better than the rice you ate in the army?

Of course, I don’t think it’s just trash because there are crimes, but seeing that people like me who have killed so many people are wasting tax money, other guys should know.

“Are the facilities inside okay?”

“Oh, Agent Jason? You must be really busy. I’ll see you in China and go to Korea to meet my wife. You look really busy because you’re away.”

“Actually, I’m more busy with work these days.”

“Because of Horizon?”

“You know?”

“I can use my cell phone, so I’m watching the news.”

It seems that my wife has already finished preparing for the move. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t have brought the Horizon from Mars all the way here and said she was going to Mars.

Dimensional Cruiser Horizon. It’s name is from a sci-fi horror movie that Shion likes. The name of the ship’s main management personality is Captain Miller.

Since Zion keeps updating basically the functions it has, even after a year, there are functions that even I don’t know about, so only Zion knows the exact specifications.

No, in the first place, the scientific part isn’t me, it’s Shion. When it comes to spaceships, Shion knows best.

“Are there many people who have their eyes on that? I get it roughly.”

“Thanks to that, the Korean government seems to have changed its policy a bit. You can rest your mind about the hearing.”

“I didn’t really care about that anyway”

“…Still, there is a high possibility that he will move to the state under the name of community service.”

“The law is a tool to maintain a society determined by the majority. But why should I listen to that when I am stronger than that society?”

Human civilization is too precarious and weak in front of the name of the transcendent.

If I just kill this planet right now, the earth will become a barren land where not a single blade of grass can grow. It is said that such great power is not needed to destroy mankind.

I don’t know if I’m doing it at a moderately decent point, but do you think I’ll tolerate it if you use me and try to use me? I’d rather go to jail and rot.

“It would be better to quit when I respect you. I don’t know if the higher ups know that line.”

“If you have any problems, how about coming to America?”

“Anyway, in this situation, we have to move to Mars, but the US wouldn’t be bad either.”

I’m honestly a little stumped.

It’s nice to just move to Mars and live happily with Zion in this life, but it’s better to stay on Earth if possible. There is a feeling of living with people and it is fun to watch.

“But if I stay here, I think there will be a lot of people whining about my skills.”

That’s why I’m not deeply involved in worldly affairs despite having this power.

Considering my power as a transcendental person and Zion’s technological prowess, which is at a considerable level even at the dimensional level, a civilization like Earth can build a hotel on the moon and go on vacation to Mars within 100 years.

But what you have achieved is without effort or will. Like the place where she betrayed her Zion long ago and was told to capture her.

Human beings are meaningful only when they take time to develop themselves. I don’t really like civilizations that develop through the intervention of transcendentalists. Even if it is a good civilization.

The same goes for places like Phantom’s Dark Lord Castle and Gray’s Delta Castle. There is a transcendental person who looks up at me too, so it’s a nice place that can really be considered a paradise, but it’s pure.

Does not think

“The rapid development of civilization is sure to have side effects. Even if Zion only sprays anti-gravity technology right away, other transportation businesses and means of transportation will be replaced and many people will lose their jobs. It is you, not me, who has to deal with the aftermath.”

Korea is also feeling the same aftermath.

The Republic of Korea rapidly recovered and grew after the Korean War to the point of being called the Miracle on the Han River, but it did not accompany the people’s spiritual maturity.

If there really had been such mental growth, there would never have been a daughter of a guy who drank liquor with a female college student and got shot and ransacked.

“It is human nature to try to move forward. The future is right in front of our eyes, but we will not give up easily.”

“It’s probably about the profit that will be made there.”

“Does Mr. Choi not trust humanity?

“Well”

Because work is work.

I, of course, see the positive side of society. Otherwise, like Utopia, if there was just one bad thing, they would have been annihilated.

Whether you are a teacher or a student, isn’t it just looking at the right problem? It’s because you can see what’s wrong and know what’s lacking and try to fix it.

“Anyway, the offer went well. I’ll think about it for now, so I’ll reserve the answer. Well, if I think about it, I’ll ride the Horizon and park it in front of the Statue of Liberty.”

“Can you treat a spaceship like a car?!”

“…Hmm, I think I said that just once.”

Then, reflexively, I turned my head and looked somewhere.

Then, a slight vibration rang through the building. It’s a really weak vibration, the kind you feel when a big truck or something goes by.

“Hmm……? There are no big roads in this area, and access is restricted, so it’s probably not because of cars. It looks like an earthquake.”

“That’s right. I think the earthquake happened roughly in the Pacific Ocean. It’s quite large, right? It happened in that direction, so Japan will have a hard time again.”

“Can you feel it?”

“Yes”

Because the width of my feeling is enough to cover the earth if I expand it to its fullest extent. There is no way you can’t figure out an earthquake that only happened in the Pacific Ocean.

But it is large. There was an earthquake similar to this once before… About 10 years ago? No, isn’t that a bit off?

“I have a pretty foreboding feeling…”

Japan is a country where a lot of incidents happen because the ground is not good. Among my acquaintances, there is a Japanese god named Susanoo, and since I heard the story from him, it is highly credible.

That’s why even the yokai-like kids from there are strong and just like that. One of them reincarnated as Hibiki Go, the current master user in Japan.

Anyway, the magnitude of this earthquake is large, so the damage is worrying. Well, it’s almost like an annual event in Japan, so we’ll do well to deal with and restore it, but…

“Isn’t Fukushima going to explode again?”

“No way. If people had brains, they would have prepared for it to some extent. If Fukushima explodes this time, Japan will be ruined.”

“Isn’t it? If you’re not quite a two-headed bastard…”

However, I am a bit worried because the Japanese leaders are quite a few idiots.

………Hmm, what I just thought made me feel more anxious.

“Anyway, I think it’s better to just leave the world than just go to America.”

Hey, how do you know I like post-apocalyptic worlds!!!!

This genre is Nuclear Apocalypse! It would be better to quickly stock up on cola caps or find a good subway station!!!
