An Extra who Rewrites from Scratch - Chapter 56

“This one makes a lot of sense.”

“… … .”

“I don’t mean to rip anything out. I just want to pass on the necessary information to you.”

‘Are you giving away information? Not for information?’

Hong Eun-tae was confused by the words she did not understand.

The man who said that seemed to be smiling under the mask.

*

Even after the humiliating defeat, Shin Taek continued to loot and search.

Then, a strange thing happened a few days later.

“What? What does that mean?!”

The men who had been sent for reorganization returned empty-handed.

At Shin-Taek’s interrogation, the subordinate chose as many words as he could and opened his mouth.

“I think it’s going to be hard to raid players anymore.”

“why? For what?”

“A special path was created. It is said that if you follow that route, no abnormalities will occur. A lot of players are already using it, so there is a lot to see.”

It was something I hadn’t thought of.

Shin-taek’s eyes widened.

Even now, they were on an empty stomach.

But was there any other way to get rid of Aguido’s status abnormality?

“Are you sure about that?”

“Yes, for sure. I’ve listened carefully to what the players who took the road had to say. It didn’t even seem like players were actually starving.”

Shin’s face hardened.

The men brought to Aguido were the elite among the elite.

He wasn’t a bad player enough to fail a raid, and he wasn’t an idiot who would lie to himself to avoid a moment’s failure.

I meant that it was true.

“How the hell was that road made?”

“I haven’t been able to figure it out for sure. but… … .”

The subordinate frowned and looked at Shin-Taek’s eyes.

Shin-Taek’s eyebrows twitched.

Before touching his heart, the subordinate hurriedly continued.

“I think the player who wore the illusionary mask was involved.”

“A mask of welcome?”

What passed through Shin’s mind was the subtle confrontation he had played the other day.

Obviously, he was overpowering him with the spear, but when he realized it was a strange battle he had been defeated in.

It was absurd that a single player could solve the problem of status ailments affecting the entire island alone.

“Tell me more. Don’t take away one thing the players were saying.”

He had an intuition that he should not pass the report of his subordinates in vain.

It may be that the player is more informed than he is.

Could it be that he sent himself from a force trying to contain Jo Ja-hyun?

I even had such absurd thoughts.

“It was strange that there were less players than usual, so we moved. In the meantime, I found a major road that was followed by players over 30. He hid himself and listened to the story, and the story of the road came out. A player wearing a certain mask appeared and told me how to fix the condition.”

“I am sure he is.”

Already in Aguido, rumors were rife that those wearing illusion masks were looting.

Even in such a situation, the only player who dared to wear a mask would be either a real red player or a guy trying to hide his identity.

“yes. And as the road is built, the base camp seems to be moving towards that special route.”

“The base camp is being moved?”

If players only follow a set route instead of going around Junggu Heating, they will no longer be able to loot.

When they learn that there is no loot or hunger at base camp, players will gather around it.

That does not mean that Shin-Taek could now move his base to a place with a special route.

They have been hiding their faces and looting.

There’s no way the players couldn’t tell the unfamiliar face that appeared at the base camp.

In addition, if the looting is revealed, it will also lead to dirty ties with the government.

In that case, it would be like painting Jo Ja-hyun’s face.

“shit!”

Losing badly in battle wasn’t enough, so I didn’t expect to get fucked in this way.

No matter who you are, you are blocking my way in every case, baeChan was a very thick guy.

Shin-taek couldn’t win and shoved his fist into the tree next to him.

*

Peace came to Aguido, which was no different from the chaos.

First of all, unlike before, looting between players has been significantly reduced.

And the number of players who lose their lives in battle with the Maw has also decreased.

This is because the hunger phenomenon was temporarily resolved.

It was good news for the investigation team.

The support team was using this flow to dismantle the existing base camp.

Now the base camp was going to be moved to a path that didn’t cause any abnormalities.

However, it only solved the hunger phenomenon, and the threat of the anglers on the island was still there.

Therefore, the base camp relocation was scheduled to take place over a few days.

Dohyun was watching him from afar.

He said, ‘You’re moving the way you think.’

Dohyeon activated the rock by restoring the patterns and characters of the mysterious rock on the island.

And he shared the area where the rock was active to the player.

Although he only shared it with some players, the ripple effect of the information was great.

There is information that is beneficial to reading alone, and there is always information that is beneficial only when shared.

The information pertains to the latter.

Of course, the reason Dohyun leaked information to the players was not simply out of the kindness he gave to save the players.

There was another reason.

“I’m hungry, so my head doesn’t go well.”

One of the support teams dismantling base camp spoke up.

The rock’s influence had not reached the base camp where they were now.

The energy of the support team was running low because of the constant hunger.

“Still, the road to the new base camp will be fine, so hold on.”

“I don’t know who the hell discovered the way, but isn’t it great?”

“I know. If we follow the map, our exploration will progress a bit.”

As the support team said, in the future, players would only go on a set route to avoid starvation.

Will you be threatened by taking an unspecified path?

Or will it search stably even if there is a slight delay?

Most players chose the latter.

Unlike the game, in dungeons and monsters, it was natural because it was a matter of real life.

And that is exactly what Dohyun was aiming for.

Both the base camp and the players pushed them to the sunny area of ​​Aguido.

By doing so, Do-hyeon could delay the search for a competitor.

In the meantime, he must first explore the shade of Aguido himself (陰地).

“I’m done buying time with this, so let’s move on.”

Then, Do-hyeon got up from the branch where he was sitting, blew the new bird and disappeared into the forest.

“Are you sure you searched properly?”

Shin Taek’s voice was sharp.

He was navigating Aguido more easily than before, but to no avail.

It was strange.

Obviously, not so long ago, Shin Taek and his men had an advantageous position in the search for Aguido.

It was natural.

This is because, unlike other teams that would have suffered from hunger, they obtained sufficient supplies through looting.

There was no need to waste time going to land or getting food through base camp.

But now the dominance he had at that time was gradually disappearing.

“Yeah, the search team also said they did a proper search.”

“What about the other search teams?”

“You will know when you arrive, but if you see that there is no news yet… … .”

bang!

Shin-taek was very angry and swung his fist.

Thanks to this, only the tree, which had been the subject of anger, was shaken by the strong impact.

“If you keep shoveling like this, everything you’ve been doing will be in vain. Do you know what I mean?”

“sorry.”

“No. You may already be lagging behind!”

Shin Taek’s sharp criticism continued.

His subordinate quietly accepted Shin-Taek’s anger with his head bowed.

Considering Shin’s temperament, it was a wise move.

Above all, as Shin said, the search team had been working in vain for several days.

Another team that entered Aguido may have already found a clue.

The advantage over looting is gone.

Rather, I lootedThe enemy was shackled and grabbed his ankles.

As Shin-Taek, there was nothing strange about being angry with his subordinates.

“How many unsearched areas are there?”

“When the whole of Aguido is divided into zones, there are 6 zones.”

“There’s quite a bit left.”

“yes. That’s why search teams continue to clear unexplored areas. If you follow the schedule, you will surely find traces.”

“Hey, who can’t?”

As a subordinate, it was a word that squeezed courage.

But Shin-Taek snorted those words and threw them away.

The unsubstantiated rumors were unbelievable.

Several search teams were conducting the search through thoroughly calculated movement lines.

Nevertheless, they all returned empty-handed without a harvest.

It was strange.

Shin-taek’s subordinates were players who were keen on exploring dungeons.

As experts, it was very rare to do in vain.

Even so, the search team continued to turn on the fuss.

Shin Taek could not see the situation optimistically.

“Review the search path from the beginning.”

In the end, Shin-Taek opened his mouth as if he was determined.

“From the beginning again, right?”

“Then shall we continue shoveling like this? There’s something wrong from the start, so you can’t find any traces?!”

Shin Taek raised his voice.

The subordinate quickly accepted and overcame the crisis.

However, in the corner of his heart, he was still dissatisfied with Shin-taek’s orders, so he was still dissatisfied.

Re-examine the search path from the beginning?

It might sound like a simple thing to listen to.

However, this actually meant to re-explore Aguido from the beginning.

Of course, there was bound to be refusal.

But Shin-Taek seemed to have already made up his mind.

“Listen. From now on, I’ll assume that the other team has found a clue. Keep a close eye on trends and bring me any new updates as soon as we have them.”

“all right.”

I didn’t understand it, but anyway, it was an order from a superior.

The subordinate bowed his head deeply and in his head devised a way to carry out Shin-Taek’s orders.

Whoops.

The subordinate, who was about to leave the barracks after closing the door, glanced at Shin Taek’s complexion.

It was as expected.

He wasn’t the only one feeling that things were going wrong.

Shin-taek’s expression also hardened.

‘Things are messed up.’

The subordinate only let out a small sigh.
