Chapter 459: Battle (3)
Those from Kuhana, who were arrogantly posturing just a little while ago, were busy running away haphazardly at the attack of the roots.
Then the roots attacked the guys who were approaching the Myongjin Shelter recklessly.
“Khuuuuuuuuuuk!”
“What the heck is this?”
Flop!
Flop!
Some of them barely survived the roots’ first attack, but even then, they had no other choice but to collapse at the roots’ subsequent attack.
After that, the roots moved back to their original location.
Of course, I was so proud of them.
So I even thought of taking the initiative to seek the rulers of the Royal Districts after leaving the defense of the Myongjin Shelter to the roots.
No matter how strong the roots were, the shelter would be defenseless if the rulers of the Royal Districts stormed into it all at once while I was away.
The rulers of the Royal Districts were notorious for their extraordinary strength, and as they were inhabitants of Kuhana, they were receiving tremendous buffs from the Land of Despair.
“Alright, let me stay here a little more. They will appear before me anyway.”
So I decided to stay at the Myongjin Shelter.
***
In Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, 23 days later.
Shuuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuuuuuung!
Usually, thousands, or tens of thousands of people appeared in the Land of Despair from Kuhana at one time. But this time, only four people appeared.
And the four people who appeared on Earth looked around and spoke one by one.
“Is this the place owned by Juyoung Hong, or Jiwon Lee?”
“It’s good. Not bad.”
“But this is clearly our loss because we only obtained this place by sacrificing Kuhana. If we had won, we could have taken it for free.”
“Well, we couldn’t help it because Juyoung Hong was not a factor we had even considered at the start.”
“That’s enough. We can occupy this place if we get rid of Juyoung Hong, and everything belonging to Jiwon Lee. Then we can restore our lost land. In that respect, it’s our gain, not our loss.”
“You bet!”
Anyway, the rulers of the 2nd and 3rd Royal Districts as well as the rulers of the 8th and 9th Royal Districts began to move.
As soon as they appeared, they received a report from those who arrived here ahead of them that there was an unassailable being in the Land of Despair
Obviously, they knew the ‘unassailable being’ was Juyoung Hong even if he had yet to reveal himself there.
The four rulers of the Royal Districts finally appeared on Earth.
At that moment, those few who survived in the Land of Despair as well as those who were hiding in their own arks could hear a message.
[The Land of Despair has begun to radiate the energy of despair.]
It had been a little over a month since the Land of Despair appeared on Earth.
Countless people had died on Earth, but those who built the arks to flee to the sea continued their lives as best as they could.
Humans were scientifically and biologically meant to be incapable of adapting to new environments easily, but they were bizarrely good at adapting themselves to it.
So they could also hear the message that rang suddenly while they were carrying on with their lives as usual.
[The Land of Despair has begun to radiate the energy of despair.]
Aside from those who were already dead, even those who survived cringed at the word ‘despair’. So they could not help but be shocked when they heard the message that contained the word ‘despair’ because they didn’t want to hear it again.
Contrary to their expectations, however, the message containing that word did not end there, but continued.
[The energy of despair emanating from the Land of Despair begins to slowly encroach on your body.
-Health and mana decrease by 10 per second.
-Health and mana that drop because of the energy of despair will not be restored by automatic recovery or healing.
-In order to prevent the drop in health and mana caused by the energy of despair, you should continue to step on the Land of Despair.
– In any case, the moment your health reaches 0, you die immediately.]
“…”
“…”
“…”
Those who fled to the sea to escape the Land of Despair were taken aback by the message that made their desperate efforts to survive until now useless.
But before they could even overcome their shock, something that would cause even more extreme confusion and fear in them occured.
“Kheeeeeeek!”
“Khuuuuuuuuuk”
“I don’t want to die like this…”
Flop!
Flop!
Of course, the ships didn’t carry only those who raised their reality actualization rate.
There were a considerable number of ordinary people aboard the ships too.
Excluding those who lived alone for all their lives, some of the people aboard brought their families and relatives, not to mention those who were from the same school or from the same hometown.
But the problem was that in order to raise their reality actualization rate, it was absolutely necessary for them to achieve level 1200, and if they were even 1 level short of level 1200, they were classified as ordinary people.
In the end, the ordinary people who were aboard the ships died in vain without even being able to sustain for a few seconds at the sudden message, just like those who died as soon as they set foot on the Land of Despair.
“Oh, no!”
“Honey!”
“Mom! You shouldn’t die!”
“Shit! This is too cruel!”
“Man, as the saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining, but what the heck is this?”
“These damn bastards!”
They were in big chaos.
They would have been less frustrated and startled if they had been prepared for it in heart, but since the message rang all of a sudden, more than half of those on the ship expressed their anger and frustration endlessly..
The very fact that they were on the ship meant that they were closely affiliated with those who were level 1200 and raised their reality actualization rate, perhaps even closer to them than their families.
However, as if to mock their frustration and anger, the messages kept ringing to enrage them even more.
[Your health and mana decrease by 10.]
[Your health and mana decrease by 10.]

“Turn the ships back to land!”
“Move to the nearest land!”
They were so sad, frustrated and angry.
But they could not all die together without doing anything, so some commanders and executives ordered them to change course immediately.
Of course, they reluctantly gave such an order because even if they set foot on the Land of Despair to avoid the ‘energy of despair,’ it didn’t mean they would find any ray of hope there. Rather, there was a fat chance that a more hellish world would unfold for them.
But they couldn’t die helplessly, so they issued the order while crying bitter tears.
In the meantime, some commanders and executives picked out the specific name of a place rather than a nearby site, namely, Gangwon Province, or more precisely, the sea off the coast of Myongjin Shelter.
From their point of view, that was the most likely place that they could survive if they reached there..
