Chapter 135: Outing
While the keyword “Otherworld Lord Raid” was sweeping through all ‘Reverse Planet’ communities worldwide, both East and West.
There was one place where the ripples were even more massive than in the communities—naly, the Planet Earth developnt team, who had contributed sowhat to developing this.
They had already been monitoring the ‘Hack Tour’ content in preparation for any potential situations, and imdiately after it ended, they had gathered in the conference room.
While internally swallowing their umpteenth complaint of ‘That damn Hack Tour and Mr. Cheater again.’
“Regarding the Otherworld Lord Raid—”
The Developnt Team Leader examining the hologram data let out a long breath. She seed sowhat relieved. It was a feeling of self-congratulation that at least they’d managed this much.
In fact, she really did think so. Compared to what Isaac—or Deus—had done up until now, this much was nothing more than cute mischief.
The Otherworld Lord Raid was at least content they had also been preparing for an update.
‘Unlike that mysterious system whose creation thod we can’t even guess.’
“—Let’s proceed as is. It’s not the picture we wanted, but it’s not too bad. We were planning to release related content soon anyway.”
“Understood.”
“The problem is the Doppelganger and the Otherworld God Abraxas.”
The Developnt Team Leader clutched her head, which was starting to throb again. These two things were stressing her out in different ways.
First, in the case of the tentatively nad ‘Doppelganger,’ unlike the Otherworld Lord Raid which existed within the realm of understanding, it was clearly Over-Technology.
In other words, it was close to a Fully Responsive AI or Fully Responsive Story System. Naturally, the stress she would receive was the sa as back then.
“Constructing an AI with the exact sa combat style as that person based on a user’s combat data.”
If this were true, the Doppelganger AI could be called even more absurd technology than the Fully Responsive AI.
If the Fully Responsive AI was the act of drawing a person on a blank canvas, the Doppelganger AI was the act of gathering scattered dots and drawing them into a person.
It’s already difficult just to draw a person, but to make a person from randomly placed dots? She couldn’t even guess how such a thing was possible.
The other developers must have felt the sa as the Developnt Team Leader, as they kept their mouths shut.
Whether the person who created the Doppelganger AI was Isaac or Deus, they couldn’t help but feel self-deprecating.
If it was the forr, it ant hundreds of people couldn’t match a single person, and if it was the latter, it ant AI was far better than humans.
“And Abraxas was definitely in a silent state along with Deus.”
Isaac’s developed Deus had several sub-cores centered around the main core, one of which was the Otherworld God Abraxas core.
As the Developnt Team Leader said, after the main core Deus entered a silent state following Isaac’s disappearance, it was a core that had also entered a silent state together with it.
Since signs of this sub-core’s activity had appeared, naturally her head could only beco complicated.
“Has Deus fully awakened?”
Access logs presud to be Deus.
Plus the Abraxas core that had resud activity.
There was sufficient basis to consider that with the missing Isaac’s return, Deus had entered a reactivation phase.
The Developnt Team Leader asked with eyes full of anticipation.
“What do you think, Raymond?”
“I apologize, but I cannot give you a definitive answer. Our team still hasn’t broken through the firewall surrounding Deus.”
“…That firewall Isaac set up. I know. Damn it. I know.”
At Raymond’s firm answer, the Developnt Team Leader irritably swept back her hair.
After internally cooling her anger for a mont, she spoke again.
“Since we can’t do anything about it right now, those assigned to monitoring should continue watching Mr. Cheater’s broadcast as before and report if any special cases occur.”
“Understood.”
“The rest of you, let’s put all our efforts into unraveling the black-boxed data. We must find out the contents before anything else gets updated.”
“”Understood!!””
“Good, everyone move!”
Watching the developers’ backs as they left the conference room in a rush, the Developnt Team Leader inwardly sighed.
There wasn’t a bit of falsehood in her words about necessarily finding out. The developnt team was truly putting forth all their strength to disassemble the black-boxed data.
That was because the project na they had barely managed to extract—probably sothing Isaac had deliberately left open—was ominous.
‘A Whole New World.’
Wasn’t it obviously hinting at a new season, no matter who looked at it!

“Are you really sure it’s okay?”
The scheduled date for the ‘Hack Disciple’ content.
Baek Woohyun and Jeong Nayeon were gathered early as usual, talking about the broadcast.
However, what was sowhat different from usual was that the topic of conversation wasn’t feedback from the previous broadcast or the day’s broadcast progression thod.
“It’s fine. I didn’t really care much about it anyway. And.”
Baek Woohyun glanced at Jeong Nayeon.
Perhaps recalling the mistake she’d made in the last broadcast, her expression had sunken gloomily.
He had been saying since right after the broadcast ended that he didn’t care whether his face was revealed or not, but it seed she couldn’t help it.
While she seed to have an easygoing personality, her timid side was unexpectedly revealed in matters like this.
Shaking his head, he said.
“Seongcheol hyung also said that now that it’s been revealed, maintaining it as is would be more helpful for the broadcast.”
“Well, that’s true, but. I feel like you’re doing sothing you don’t need to do because of
alone…”
“Why is this because of you alone? Seongcheol hyung made the sa mistake too. Besides, this is the first ti a Doppelganger has appeared in RePla. It was enough of a situation to make a mistake, so don’t bla yourself too much.”
Despite repeated consolations, Jeong Nayeon’s complexion still wasn’t good. Regardless of the justification, the fact that she had made a mistake remained unchanged.
Realizing this, Baek Woohyun shook his head. At this rate, it was clear that no matter how much he said it was okay, her expression wouldn’t brighten.
So instead of continuing aningless consolation, he spouted nonsense with a nonchalant expression.
“Actually, I was thinking of revealing my face soon anyway. I was wondering why I needed to hide such a handso face.”
“…?”
At the sudden self-praise, Jeong Nayeon looked at Baek Woohyun, even forgetting her gloom. Her expression questioned whether what she heard was real.
Feeling her gaze, Baek Woohyun shrugged his shoulders as if to say, ‘What, did I say sothing wrong?’
Watching Jeong Nayeon’s mouth open and close as if at a loss for words, he soon chuckled and continued.
“It’s a joke, a joke.”
“…Ah, you startled . It was a joke.”
“Of course it’s a joke. You don’t think I’d seriously say sothing like that?”
“With you, I thought maybe.”
“Isn’t your perception of
a bit too much?”
“Is it though?”
Bantering as befitting friends for a while.
Jeong Nayeon, who had subtly approached Baek Woohyun, looked up at him and said.
“By the way, you seem to be in a good mood today? Even making jokes you don’t usually make.”
“In a good mood. Hmm, definitely so.”
Baek Woohyun nodded.
As she said, he was clearly aware that he was sowhat excited.
And even the reason why he felt so good.
“I slept really well after a long ti.”
To the point where it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he’d slept like a log.
Baek Woohyun thought it was probably because by destroying the research facility in the last broadcast, the vengeful spirits crying for revenge were reasonably satisfied.
Since the cause of his sleepless nights was largely the vengeful spirits appearing in his dreams, now that they had quieted down, he could spend a comfortable night.
Just like when he first did the tutorial.
He’d even thought, ‘Should I destroy research facilities periodically?’
If spending a few dozen minutes in ‘Reverse Planet’ satisfying vengeful spirits guaranteed very comfortable rest ti, there was no reason not to do it.
It wasn’t like he was actually killing people—he’d be fine just by taking down NPCs within the ga.
“Sleep is the best dicine.”
“I agree.”
“Well, anyway. How are you planning to proceed today? I heard the Beau-tiful Twins have been amazing lately.”
The developnt speed of the Beau-tiful Twins, who had received teachings from Baek Woohyun through the ‘Hack Disciple’ content, was at a terrifying level.
They had reasonably mastered how to use the build they’d learned by throwing away their lives—a truth without an inch of exaggeration—and now they were separately learning swordsmanship.
They’d even escaped from the Bronze tier, which was once like their hotown, and were now continuing a victorious winning streak in the Platinum tier.
If the Beau-tiful Twins had chosen to raise their tier rather than focus on training, they probably would have easily reached Diamond tier.
It was trendous achievent, hard to believe it ca from just one ‘Hack Disciple’ content session. To the point where all their viewers whispered that they had awakened.
Baek Woohyun thought it was a natural result since he had awakened talents they hadn’t realized and shown them the proper path.
In any case, the important point was that the Beau-tiful Twins had beco incomparably stronger than during their first training.
Because this naturally ant that Baek Woohyun’s teachings also needed to advance to the next stage.
That was the aning behind Jeong Nayeon’s question.
“I was actually thinking of doing it differently this ti.”
“As expected, Woohyun, you have it all planned out?”
Baek Woohyun’s judgnt was that for the Beau-tiful Twins to grow faster and stronger from here, they needed good nourishnt.
And generally, good nourishnt for those who fight was extre real combat so dangerous it threatened even their lives.
Therefore, this ‘Hack Disciple’ content had an outing scheduled.
A very enjoyable and fun Reverse World outing.
‘Originally I was planning to substitute real combat training with ‘Survival’ rank gas.’
Since a massive update called Otherworld Lord Raid was announced in the last PVE, unfortunately PVP training had to be postponed.
In the first place, why did Baek Woohyun hold an audition with the ridiculous na ‘Superstar N (aning Nuclear~)’ and continue with ‘Hack Disciple’?
Wasn’t it because Anonymous Viewer 62 had tipped him off that he would need reliable allies?
Since it seed they would have to do the Otherworld Lord Raid together, they should grow their PVE skills to a satisfactory level by then.
‘Well, naturally training PVE will also develop PVP anyway.’
Whether PVE or PVP, focusing on one side doesn’t an only that gets stronger. The opponents change, but the fact that one must fight using supernatural abilities remains the sa.
Ultimately, the foundation of combat in ‘that side’ or ‘Reverse Planet’ lies in supernatural abilities, and what’s important is growing the ability to handle them.
Therefore, whether facing monsters or people, whatever it may be, the strong are strong—that was Baek Woohyun’s usual principle.
“Let’s start the broadcast as soon as Seongcheol hyung and Chloe arrive. I contacted them earlier and the Beau-tiful Twins said they’re also preparing while warming up.”
“Okay.”
Baek Woohyun, who had lightly nodded, brought up the build he had personally prepared for today.
A build called ‘Puppet Master,’ it was also a supernatural ability build he had mastered in the ti remaining after the broadcast, having seen the Beau-tiful Twins’ developnt.
Having carefully read through the build’s contents once more to check if anything was wrong, he smiled.
It was a smile that would have made the Beau-tiful Twins tremble with fear without realizing it if they had seen it.
