Chapter 73: Changed People in the Changed World (5)
“There is another reason.”
Here the question arises. Why was this guy Youngdungpo Prosecutor anxious to see Sungwoo so urgently? As soon as area restrictions had been lifted, he wanted to see Sungwoo. For what?
Sungwoo seed to figure out the reason, though.
‘It may be because they frequently ntion on the community bulletin.’
It was Sungwoo who got rid of the group of evil vampires twice, and those who witnessed his brilliant activities began to spread word about it through the community bulletin. Just like rumors, their comnts about him were inflated.
One of them read as follows,
“Really? Did you see those kinds of comnts?”
“Yes. According to the comnt, the pri minister’s job is to be taken by the Youngdungpo Prosecutor. There are quite a few people who think the world of you, Sungwoo. Of course, if you look at the comnts below, those supporting Youngdungpo Prosecutor are crazier.”
“These guys are really freaks.”
Hanho was proceeding with the ‘Reading Comnts’ content at the mont.
Next to him, Jisu didn’t hide her surprise at the comnts that kept popping up.
“Well, if they praise you without caring about how precious gold is, they seem to be really passionate about you, Sungwoo. You can even expect gifts from them.”
Of course, Hanho was cracking a joke, but Sungwoo’s activities were accepted as sothing like the “realization of justice” in the current hellish world.
In other words, Sungwoo’s influence was growing, although he didn’t an for it to. Youngdungpo Prosecutor might have been wary of his growing influence.
‘This is not the ti I can afford to get their attention like this,’ Sungwoo thought to himself.
Sungwoo was wary of their intense interest. Being a celebrity certainly had advantages.
Nobody could ignore sobody’s favor and the influence that ca when he received people’s attention.
‘Well, the political stage might be in preparation. Surely, it will.’
Even in this broken world, isn’t public opinion being ford because of a single functioning community? Public opinion was necessarily connected to politics.
“Sungwoo, why don’t you reply? They are strongly demanding in their comnts that you respond to Youngdungpo Prosecutor’s request.”
It was hard for Sungwoo to decide. The presence of public opinion also ant that it could be manipulated to so extent. This was confird by the surge of the comnts by those crazy followers of Youngdungpo Prosecutor in the community called ‘Youngdungpo Believers.’
It seed that Sugnwoo’s flat ignorance of their demands would bring about a negative response.
‘Okay, I think I have to see him just once because I can also get so hidden information from him.’
For example, because he t soldiers, he could get access to the prophetic stone, and he could respond after seeing the future in advance.
As a result, the most important thing for Sungwoo right now was to attain level 15 to find the exact location of the deadly sickle. If he couldn’t find it before the new year, he would be destined to serve as Lich’s servant.
‘If I see Youngdungpo Prosecutor, I may get new information and raise my level.’
So, Sungwoo, whose ID was kor-157, left a comnt on the community bulletin.
─ kor-157: Okay, I’ll wait for you.
? Hamin Lee: Oh! Cool! He doesn’t even change his nickna;;
? Glasses Warrior: Cool. Cheering for you!
? Reporter Joontae Park: Two heroes et in the current disaster. I expected it, but I was surprised because your eting ca earlier than I expected. It seems that an ordinary citizen like can’t outwit our heroes. I hope your eting will be of help to mankind.
? Yasuo 1: lol.
? Youngdungpo Prosecutor: Thank you. Since I know where you are, I’ll see you shortly.
How could he know Sungwoo’s location without Sungwoo telling him? Youngdungpo Prosecutor might have gathered all kinds of information about Sungwoo through the community, but he didn’t ask Sungwoo about such a sensitive matter even indirectly.
‘This guy openly brags about his ability to collect intelligence. He is full of confidence.’
Obviously, the Youngdungpo Prosecutor didn’t take this issue as a simple business relationship.
Wooooong!
At that mont, Taesung’s motorcycle stopped at the front door with a loud engine sound outside. He hurried into the museum with so of his friends.
Among them was Yujin, the girl who beca a vampire. After the death of the Vampire Lord, she gradually diluted her blood, then returned to her original job, “wizard.”
Taesung’s expression looked pretty urgent.
“I was ambushed!”
“Ambushed?” Sungwoo frowned.
“Yeah! Strange guys suddenly attacked us and kidnapped Minjoon!”
Catching his breath, Taesung explained that about ten guys riding motorcycles appeared suddenly and tried to negotiate.
“They suddenly approached us, asking us if we saw sothing like a golden deer. When we said no, they recklessly attacked us all of a sudden.”
Taesung and his friends chose to run because they were nurically inferior. They barely managed to escape.
“But I think they might co this way soon.”
Since they had taken Minjoon hostage, they would definitely co this way.
“Guide to the place.”
As the area restrictions were lifted, those who survived in other regions began to co to Sungwoo’s camp, but he didn’t want a group of strangers to approach the village where he was staying now.
***
It wasn’t difficult for Sungwoo to spot the biker hooligans. When Sungwoo walked along the south street for a few minutes, he found a group of strangers stopping at the crossroads.
“Oh, you are the sa guy who escaped a little while ago, right?” One of them asked.
“Yeah, that’s right. So, did you bring brothers and sisters to confront us?”
Sungwoo was there with Jisoo, Hanho, and Taeseong.
It was natural that the hooligans regarded Sungwoo’s party as an easy target.
At a glance, they looked like a biker gang, given that they were wearing leather jackets, goggles and hoods. It seed they were in their teens like Taeseung.
“Hey, did you co here to welco us, thinking we were going to find you?”
A guy holding a mace among them stepped forward. He was a muscular man in his 40s, with purple hair that didn’t suit his age.
He glanced at Sungwoo for a mont, then began to examine Jisu.
His gaze was pretty seductive.
“Huh? Pretty sister? Would you like to take a drive with ?”
“...”
Indeed, the way he spoke to Jisu was typical of a third-rate biker.
It was so disgusting to hear him babbling on.
“Brother, we might lose the golden deer if we don’t take action. Good Heavens! You get carried away by pretty won!”
The muscular man tapped his head for a mont when other gang mbers shouted at him.
“Damn it, I was distracted for a mont. By the way, did you see the golden deer by any chance?”
“Golden deer?”
“Yes, it’s literally a golden deer. Don’t ever plan to hide it like a woodcutter. Just tell us where it escaped.”
“This is my first ti hearing about it. Where are you from?”
Lifting the mace, the guy scratched his head and said, “Oh, you don’t understand ? If you are not the golden deer, I think I have to ask you out, pretty sister?”
Then, the man raised his right hand and wriggled like a pervert.
Watching him, Jisu spoje with a sigh, when Sungwoo was about to respond.
“Sungwoo, let deal with him.”
“Sure.”
When Jisu stepped forward, the man laughed, revealing his gums.
“Oh, what the heck is this? Are you interested in ? Do you like a big man like ?”
But when Jisu pulled out her sword, he frowned violently.
“Shit, don’t you stop? If I crush your head, I can’t take delight in caressing you.”
“Well, you are going to see your hands served first before touching .”
“You bitch! Don’t move there.”
The guy spat then strode toward her with a mace but she was rotating the sword in her right hand in a circle.
The man swung his mace first. However, Jisu avoided it by twisting smoothly. His mace struck a truck parked right next to her.
Bang!
There were sparks shooting out of the truck body.
‘Sparks?’
It was her skill. Anybody who rely touched it would fall from an electric shock.
“Hey, can you be kind enough to get hit just once? Then, I can carry you on my back without any wounds. So, please get hit when I swing the mace softly, will you?”
Booung!
The man struck with the mace again, but she stepped back to avoid the attack and imdiately bounced off to the front. Then, she swung her sword so quickly that he couldn’t even respond.
The blade of her sword looked as if it cut through his wrist with sparks flying along the trajectory of the blade.
The next mont the man scread in pain.
“Ahhhhhh!”
His wrists were floating in the air. He looked at his severed wrists and collapsed.
Jisu approached him and said, “Poor uncle, sorry. It looks like you are not going to drive again for the rest of your life. You should get on the back of another uncle’s bike.”
