Chapter 232 – [The Last Days of China]

Ye-jin suddenly opened her eyes and screamed in horror.

“Don’t overbid what I bid!!!!”

“Meme?! What the heck, meme?! Why did Yonggae-hyung suddenly become possessed?”

Shion, who was staring at Yejin who woke up screaming out of nowhere, as if in surprise, looked at her with a look of surprise that anyone else could tell. To be honest, if a person who slept soundly would do so, it would be fair to be honest.

However, Ye-jin was dazed for a moment and wanted to wake her up, but she shook her head before long.

“Uh…What did I just say?”

“I understand that it’s stressful. So, why don’t you stop by the onboard medical facility and get a psychiatric consultation? At least I’m good at the manual, so it’ll be fine.”

“Can you stop talking like you’re treating someone with a mental illness?!”

Shion and Yejin were not at home. Already in Zion and the worst newlyweds’ house, all the over-technology related facilities inside were dismantled and put on real estate.

Just as the worst doesn’t lie, Shion also doesn’t lie. Since she said she was disposing of her property, she intends to dispose of it all. However, only the property earned on Earth.

In the first place, when the worst dies, Shion returns most of his property to society without hesitation and leaves to find the worst of the next reincarnation. Just think it’s a bit early.

The place where they were was the inside of Shion’s dimensional navigation ship, Horizon.

“……I don’t think I’ll ever be able to adapt here.”

“Once you get used to it, there is no place as comfortable to live as here. Every time he reincarnates, he prepares all the necessary items and equipment, so it will take you several days just to visit. Oh, there is even an amusement park on board.”

“Really?!?!”

The dimension navigation ship Horizon boasts a battlefield that is 30 kilometers long. Thanks to this, she could be seen all over Seoul, and even if it was not in Seoul, it was a gigantic size that could be seen in other nearby cities as long as the weather was clear.

It is not strange that there is an amusement park-like facility inside the ship. If you don’t have that, it’s a huge waste of space.

“Well, first of all, this ship is not specifically for combat or anything like that, but for personal vacation. You can think of it as a cruise ship, so to speak.”

“Um…Come to think of it, the cruise ship is really big, but isn’t it too big?”

“I’m a performance buff, so I want to put in all the features I want. If you look at the money that went into making this one, it’s roughly equivalent to the US national budget for a thousand years.”

“Where did you get that money from?”

“I sold some technology and did a little business, then I sold the company and made some money.

“Wow…….”

“Oh, and there are also a few Van Gogh works and many works by famous painters in the art archives, so take a look around. There are quite a few collections coming and going.”

“……I don’t have the strength to be surprised anymore.”

Zion loves all civilizations and artworks created by mankind. It’s just that he likes anime and manga, which is a personal preference, and in fact, he often collects art.

Most of the works of art of civilizations that continue to exist normally are returned to society as they are, met with the person concerned and directly traded, or collected from the world that has already perished and has no value as art.

Nevertheless, the amount is considerable enough to open an art museum. Even if you collect only one work a year, it amounts to thousands, and it is not for nothing that you have lived for thousands of years.

“The same goes for games and books. The facilities are perfect enough to build a civilization inside this ship. There are not many living quarters, but if you squeeze them in, you can burn hundreds of thousands of people.

Long-term residence is a separate issue, though.”

“I think we can really gather people and move there.”

“Wouldn’t it be a little lonely to be honest if we went alone? If it were me or him, it wouldn’t be bad if we just lived happily, but since we’re terraforming on Mars, we’re just going to take people and develop Mars.”

“Five……”

The two were inside the dimension navigation ship Horizon, in the captain’s office to be precise.

There was an open, transparent window in front of me, so I could see all the scenery outside, and a small hologram screen floated next to the window without obstructing my view. Some news, information, other YouTube videos, etc. Quite messy.

“Stay here until the Earth’s work is finished. The artificial intelligence on board will take care of everything you need for life.”

“Do you have artificial intelligence?”

“Horizon’s main AI is named ‘Miller'”

[Nice to meet you, Yejin-yang]

It was a voice that seemed to come from thin air. Even Force user Yejin couldn’t figure out where the sound came from or where it came from.

But one thing is for sure: the voice is a bit familiar. Of course, it’s not the voice of someone I know, it’s a voice I’ve heard somewhere…

“I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this damn male voice…Mr. Morpheus from The Matrix?”

“Well, that’s right”

The reason why Shion named this dimension travel ship Horizon is because it was taken from a famous sci-fi horror movie.

And there, as the main character, the actor who plays the role of Morpheus in the Matrix appears under the name of Miller. So Horizon’s main artificial intelligence doesn’t know the personality, but the voice is the same.

“Don’t you usually give a woman’s name for something that looks like a pear? I think I’ve heard of it somewhere.”

“I, the captain, am a woman, so what can I do with a woman’s name?

“Eh?!”

“What are you looking at? Of course it’s with my husband.”

“Ah, come to think of it, there was a time when the old man was reincarnated as a woman…”

“The body of that time is already being stored on this ship.”

No matter how transcendent technology is, there is a limit beyond the human body. Even the worst body is mortal someday, so if it is stored for hundreds or thousands of years, it will eventually rot.

However, Shion intends to keep it until then. It’s a bit of a strange taste, but it’s because it’s like seeing traces of past growth, as if you’ve drawn height growth on the wall.

“…… The old man boasts so much, what does he look like?”

“Would you like to see it?”

“Little bit”

As Shion beckoned, a hologram screen in her corner grew larger and came right in front of them. There was a figure of a woman floating naked in a liquid-filled cylinder facility in one of Horizon’s districts.

The inside of the barrel is bright, so you can see every inch of the body of the woman inside. But what caught my eye more than her appearance was the weapon on her chest.

“Why do you wear three of her heads?! What Cerberus?!”

“My husband is the best guy in the world!!!”

“At that level, it’s something to be proud of, but I’m afraid my shoulders will die!!!”

Ye-jin is also a force user, so she has a good body, so she says that her breasts are not at the level of being small, but when she saw the worst breasts of a woman in her previous life, she realized the overwhelming difference in size.

It is a level where you can dribble off a ball instead of a soccer ball. She was the worst woman for nothing, and she wasn’t bragging that she was plump.

Compared to her breasts, her appearance is black hair with a bit of a Western feel, not a pure Asian. Although her appearance is not exceptional, her eyes are a charming beauty with smokey makeup.

“He’s good at cooking… He’s good at cleaning, and his personality is good as long as he doesn’t get angry. He’s almost like a wise woman.”

“I also think that way sometimes. To be honest, what do you think the motherly love that comes from that heart is like? It’s like being able to embrace the whole world as children. I can feel that kind of motherly love.”

“…Auntie, tell me honestly why you kept a woman’s body.”

“My husband is the best guy in the world!!!”

“I’d rather exercise my right to remain silent!!!”

If you are simply a person with a monstrous chest, you can search the earth and find them. There are definitely people who are bigger than the worst and can’t even live a daily life.

However, it is by no means an exaggeration to praise Zion as being the best on earth. This is because, despite its large size and weight, its shape never collapses and even its elasticity is perfect.

Can I touch a man and even a woman if I see her? It was a demonic chest enough to ask!!!!

“The cause of death was shock death anyway, so his body was fine. Most of the time my husband died, he either died of a fine old age or he died after a fucking fight and won, but he lost because the opponent was bad, and his body is fine.”

“Is it good or bad?”

“Anyway, my body is fine, so if I do well, I can use it later, so there’s no problem.”

“You seem to think it’s a good thing!!!”

Shion pushed the hologram into a corner again. And this time he dragged the news channel upstairs and zoomed in.

On the news, it was confirmed that a hearing on the worst would be held, and the date was set one week from now.

“Seven days is short.”

“Seven days is a long enough time. If you just enlisted in the 102nd Reserve Corps and have a restless mind, even 3 days can be as long as 3 weeks, isn’t it twice as long? Of course, the month-long training camp that follows is longer…….”

“Ah, a married woman with a military pencil…”

Like PTSD, the memories of the previous life spring up in Shion’s memory.

If the worst is born as a man but reincarnated repeatedly and there is no gender distinction between men and women, Shion is born as a man but becomes a woman after reincarnation, so she has almost a female gender.

But even after that much time has passed, the story of the Korean man’s military days does not disappear. Shion is determined and serious enough to give up his virtues for two years before going back to the army.

“Anyway, in a week, I’ll see him at his hearing and he’ll decide whether or not he’s going to Mars.”

“But no matter how much you think about it, don’t you think the government won’t let you go? It’s not like you messed up in Korea, and since you know you’ll be ruined if you mess up, I think you’ll be coaxed into asking for cooperation.”

“Of course, it’s a natural reaction for a politician.”

It’s a slightly different metaphor, but it’s like an opportunity to recruit Yeo Po and Jegal Gong Myung together.

Except for the personality problem, Yeo-po boasts the strongest military force, and Jegal Gong-myeong has no one to argue with.

If you recruit two people, it’s a level that even the world can aim at. It is now at a level where it can be made into an earth empire, not a world empire.

“Ummm…… But even if you don’t, there’s news that you have to leave the Earth.”

“What is it?”

“Take a look at this”

There, it showed a high-definition hologram video of the Fukushima power plant explosion, which was not filmed through strict control even in Japan and no one took it.

“Where is this?”

“This is the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant”

“I heard that it exploded, but it wasn’t this big?!”

“It wasn’t nine years ago. It happened the day before yesterday.”

“Uh…….?”

Ye-jin also knew about the incident in Fukushima. However, it happened after that, and the power plant itself was so destructive that the entire power plant itself was blown away.

The fear of radiation is unknown unless you experience it. Unless it was really high concentration of radiation, it didn’t kill instantly, and it was like poison to drive to death without knowing it.

“If you calculate it, radiation will quickly spread throughout Japan due to the current Fukushima explosion. However, even if it is not immediate death, the number of thyroid cancer cases will increase several times in a few months, and the probability of birth defects will increase exponentially. And what Even if the lifespan of the current Japanese people is less, it will be reduced by 3 to 40 years. The whole country is contaminated with radioactivity, so no matter what you drink or eat, you will be exposed to radiation, and the radiation will spread not only to Japan, but to the whole world.”

“……The whole world?”

“Of course, it’s not as good as Japan, but even in Korea, the average life expectancy of the people will be reduced by 10 years.”

“………..”

Suddenly, Yejin recalled the decontamination equipment Xion lent to Russia.

No matter how long the rental period was, Shion had the decontamination technology itself. Then, this incident in Japan is not a big problem.

“Uh, what if I borrow decontamination equipment? Can’t I?”

“Is that because of us?”

“Uh…But you can still do it. She’s also got some amazing skills. Wouldn’t that make other people avoid it?”

“Every time I see something like that, it reminds me of the old days.”

Zion as a child. No, he was a few hundred years old at least when he was young, but at that time he met the first civilization he came into contact with and passed on his technology to them.

Including the current decontamination technology, various other over-technology technologies… High-efficiency solar power generation, anti-gravity technology, room temperature nuclear fusion technology, etc. He gave me all the jaw-dropping tricks.

However, technology obtained without effort has no faith, and even civilization and spirit rot.

“Since then, I have promised not to solve any technology unless it is at a certain level. Even if it is a technology that is one or two generations advanced, unsolving a technology with a clearly different level will cause side effects.”

“But……..”

“What if I helped with that and people just deal with nuclear bombs or nuclear waste thinking, ‘If something happens because of the radiation, I’ll solve it again!'”

“…….Ah, I guess that’s right.”

Radioactivity makes us think twice about using nuclear bombs. It is a weapon that, if used in times of war, will end up with only wounds and victory.

However, if radiation is somehow solved, nothing is more effective than that. If there was decontamination technology in the Cold War era, it would be enough to purify the radiation! And they fired at it, to the extent that humanity was destroyed long ago.

“That is the cost of their own arrogance and ignorance. They regret and suffer for thousands of years because of it, and in the end, they will be careful not to let this happen again. Human civilization develops and reflects on that.”

“…………..”

That was the view of life that Zion had experienced and the reason for taking an indifferent attitude toward human civilization.

It was decided after living thousands of years, so even if Ye-jin persuaded him, he would not change his mind easily.

“Even animals learn that fire is hot only when they are burned. This will make mankind aware of the fear of nuclear weapons. So leave it alone for now.”

“…We need a lot of people to go to Mars, right? Can I bring my friends and their families?”

“Newcomers are always welcome”

Ye-jin was similar to Baek-ri, but Ye-jin was more realistic.

She quickly chose a better reality.
