Solo Leveling

""What? What are you talking about? Shang Yuan! Liu Shangyuan! What's going on?"

"Association, president of the association, a monster! A huge monster appeared near the helicopter!"

"what?"

"But... it doesn't seem like an ordinary monster."

"Don't you know that if you encounter a monster in the air, you can't come back alive? I didn't send you up to let you die! Come down now!"

"But, but...the president... seems to be sitting on top of the monster."

"What does this mean? No, how can a person sit on a monster..."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Zhenzhe's mind suddenly flashed the appearance of a man riding a monster.

After Wu Zhenzhe's voice paused for a few seconds, he continued to ask.

"Shang Yuan...can you see the face of the man riding on it?"

"Wait a minute, please. Yes, faintly visible."

"Is that Hunter Seong Jin-Woo?"

"what?"

Pressing his body tightly against the window, the staff who carefully examined the monster with his eyes couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

He asked Wu Zhenzhe back.

"That...how, how did you know?"

gaya one

Cheng Jin-Woo, who was riding the flying dragon Kaiser', was getting closer and closer to the portal.

Flying up from the teleportation port, it is not so much the teleportation port as it is to see a boundless black lake.

overwhelming scale.

After making up his mind to go there in person, Cheng Xiaoyu flew up, and what he saw was not what he expected.

Ordinary hunters really can't stand the huge magic power of the portal.

The association helicopter stranded in mid-air may have been judged to be dangerous. After he approached the helicopter, the helicopter quickly returned to the ground.

Cheng Jin-Woo looked down at the sky for a while, and then moved closer to the portal.

At a distance that he can touch with his hand, there is a teleportation port that opens its mouth wide to the ground.

But of course, the portal was still blocked by the shady, so there was no way to know what was going on inside.

'......'

If the hand touches it... can it just pass through? Or will it be sucked in like a teamfight portal? If this is not the case...

Cheng Jin-Woo stretched out his hand cautiously.

Maybe I don't need to wait for the portal to get out of control, I can solve this problem before the monsters run out.

With this anticipation, he tapped the shady scene of the portal with his fingertips.

'Oh?'

This is the first time I have experienced such a thing after becoming an awakened person.

He failed to pass through the portal.

The fingertips that failed to pass through the portal were abruptly blocked by the shady curtain.

The shady curtain is as strong as a wall.

'If it is an ordinary wall, maybe it can be broken...'

He pushed hard, but the wall still didn't budge.

Boom.

Seong Jin-Woo, who was trying to beat the shady, pursed his lips tightly into one word.

'It's not the same. '

It turned out to be a portal that the awakened could not pass through.

This is unlike any portal seen so far.

So... will things in this also be different from what has appeared so far?

'Whatever...'

Whatever comes out of it, down here are his family and friends.

Cheng Jin-Woo had no intention of letting them go easily.

I have the points that have risen during this period and the brave soldiers who fought with me.

The moment he thought about it.

Wow ah ah ah one!

It seemed that the loud shouts of the soldiers hidden in the shadows came from my ears.

Plop, plop.

Anxiety and excitement are intertwined.

Cheng Jin-Woo has always felt that he has become a player and gained the power of the system, and there must be his own reasons for this.

If you really want to trace the reason, isn't it just to prevent this from happening?

'It is useless to think too much......'

Cheng Jin-Woo smiled at his feelings that became meaninglessly tragic, and then put down his hand facing the portal.

At this time, the hunter's mobile phone, which was adjusted to vibrate, shook his body vigorously in his pocket.

It was a call from the Hunter Association of Country R.

Cheng Jin-Woo, who asked the R Country Association to work earlier, quickly answered the phone.

"Hello, is this Hunter Cheng Jin-Woo?"

"Speaking."

"Ah, I'm sorry. I can't hear what you're saying. May I try calling again?"

Seong Jin-Woo couldn't help grinning as he looked down at the building that shrank like a toy building block.

"It's not necessary. Because I'm in a relatively high place now. Also, has the matter I asked you been investigated?"

"Ah, yes. Just now we scanned the entire country R with satellites. But..."

Different from the usual clear tone, this time the staff's words were very vague.

On such a day, did something happen in Country R?

Cheng Jin-Woo couldn't help guessing the staff's hesitant tone, but the staff's answer was completely beyond his expectations.

"There is not a single portal. There are no newly formed portals in the entire territory of country R."

'......!'

For Cheng Jin-Woo, who mainly fought in the country all the way after eliminating the giants, this is undoubtedly news like a bolt from the blue.

"You said no!...There is no portal?"

"Yes, that's right. I was wondering if this is the only situation on our side, so I also contacted hunter associations in other countries."

The hesitant staff continued with a regretful voice.

"Since the portal was created in the sky of City S, the new portal has completely disappeared."

It has been three hours since the super-large portal appeared in the sky.

During these three hours, how high is the probability that the portals all over the world will disappear at the same time by accident?

'...not by chance. '

Cheng Jin-Woo's expression became serious.

With a serious expression, he looked up at the teleportation port directly above, and the staff on the other end of the phone asked again.

"That... I would like to ask, is there any reason why you asked us to check the location of the highest-level teleportation port?"

"..."

To be honest, it is a bit difficult to answer.

He wanted to try out the gift he got from Thomas before this big, useless portal got out of hand.

He really wanted to try that dagger with an attack power of 1,500.

How can he say that?

It seems that now we can only prevaricate.

At this time, Cheng Jin-Woo suddenly remembered a sentence that a certain sage once said.

"Even if you don't know what will happen tomorrow, someone should plant an apple tree, right?"

"Ah...apple trees. That's...a great cause."

Cheng Jin-Woo vaguely gave an answer for the other party to explain.

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, the other end rang again.

"That, Hunter Cheng."

"Ok?"

After the staff hesitated for a while, he said shyly.

"I actually don't like Country H very much. Hunter Cheng is also very clear that the Hunter Association of Country R has suffered from headaches in recent years because of the problems of ants in Qizhou Island. As an employee of the association and a person from Country R, ​​I hate Country H very much."

Cheng Jin-Woo listened to his words silently.

Seeing that Cheng Jin-Woo didn't make a sound, the staff mustered up their courage again.

"But Hunter Cheng, you changed my mind. Because of you, country H has become a benefactor's country to me. I am very grateful to Hunter Cheng who helped us, and I also sincerely thank Hunter your country H." ;

As he spoke longer and longer, his voice gradually became a choked voice.

"So, hopefully, the horrible things we've experienced don't happen in Country H."

The dead people trampled under the feet of giants, the burning city, the screams resounding through the sky, and the lingering despair.

It wasn't long before that nightmare passed.

That unfortunate incident should never happen to anyone.

The staff of country R who witnessed it recently understand this very well.

After a few seconds, Cheng Jin-Woo spoke calmly.

"It's not going to happen."

This is not a promise. It's like having great confidence in yourself.

It seems to be the reason why I have been pursuing growth and getting to where I am today.

Now is the time for him to show the results.

After hearing Seong Jin-Woo's answer, the staff laughed softly.

"Haha, I hate Country H, but one day I envy Country H. I really envy Country H where Hunter Cheng is."

"Don't praise me so much. I have no other hobbies other than catching monsters, so as long as there are monsters, I plan to go to country R all the time."

"Ah, have you been discovered? Sure enough, top hunters will not be deceived. I finally want to get some favor points from hunters."

The staff thanked Seong Jin-Woo for lightly changing the atmosphere that had become heavy by accident, and greeted him sincerely.

"Then, please contact me later."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Jin-Woo put the Hunter phone back into his pocket.
