Chapter 27 (1/2)

“Did you say they were bull-sized wolves? Bus-sized crocodiles are flying in the sky.”

“Surprisingly, I can believe it. Thank you for that free tip.”

The two soldiers said goodbye to Sungwoo’s party and disappeared in the opposite direction.

As Kim said, Sungwoo’s party found a blue QR code at the Suyong Intersection Bus Stop.

Fortunately, their cell phones had some battery left. No phone or internet was available, but they carried their cell phones anyway just in case.

Sungwoo, Hanho, and Jisu scanned the blue QR code with their phones. The code was entangled in a rather bizarre pattern, like an ancient letter.

Like Kim said, an APK extension file was installed and the application was installed on their phones.

“What? I wonder if it’s a virus, Sungwoo.”

“What does it matter? You can’t use your phone anyway.”

“Oh, damn it. I changed it only a month ago!”

“Your lifespan may be less than a month, so be quiet.”

Soon the application ran automatically.

「Player Guidebook」

-This program is designed for the smooth survival of the ‘player.’

“Guidebook?”

A few menus were displayed after the loading screen.

━ Player Guidebook

[1. Public Notice (NEW)]

[2. Player Ranking (Ongoing)]

[3. Bulletin Board]

[4. Auction house]

[5. Demon faction only (Not authorized)]

3

[6. Angel faction only (Not authorized)]

[7. Private broadcasting station (in preparation)]

Sungwoo naturally clicked it, starting with number 1. Then he saw one notice.

[1] Guide on Official Service Start

-Preparation: Host │ Views: 398,433

Official service began today. Through the first job card selection process, a total of 2,967,821 people were selected as players, and 1,341,112 people have survived as of now and are still playing. As the second player selection is scheduled in three days, we hope that many humans will actively choose the “cards.”

They read the notice, then they were silent. However, they were all wondering about one thing: Who the hell was doing this?

1

Sungwoo accessed the ‘bulletin board.’

– There are no posts.

There were 400,000 views on this notice, but how come there were no posts on the bulletin board? So, Sungwoo clicked the [Post thread] button at the bottom of the screen.

-1,000 gold is required to post a thread. [YES/NO]

1

“Uh?”

“That means you have to hunt 100 goblins to post a thread? Damn it. Our two days of hard hunting is worth only this?”

1,000 gold was directly related to their survival. No matter how much gold they earned, they could not afford to waste this.

No other bulletin board was accessible.

At the moment, when Sungwoo was about to exit the application, a thread was posted on the bulletin board for the first time.

[1] Is anyone out there?

If so, please comment! We are a group that has achieved Level 8, and we are creating a safe zone in the H Apartments, Hwaseong, Kyonggi Province. If you are nearby, please answer!

「Comment: 2」

─ kor-1461: Ugh? Are you serious? You’re nearby. Where should I go?

kor-4884 (Author): If you go to the park, we will pick you up. Gold is also consumed in posting comments, so we can’t comment individually. And comments are limited to 200 words. Please take note of it.

There was already one comment posted. Sungwoo clicked the [Comment] button.

-100 gold is required to post a comment. [YES/NO]

How could they also demand gold for comments? He immediately clicked the NO button.

However, Hanho was still examining the post.

“H Apartments are near my house!”

“Shall we go there?”
