Chapter 312: Use of Undigested Mineral Mass Revealed (1)

At the Holdridge headquarters in America.

“…”

“…”

“…”

They saw me openly demanding more compensation for destroying the statue.

Perhaps they took my actions as bold or even rude.

These top executives of Holdridge were at least 50 years older than me, and they had enormous influence in the political and financial world.

But they didn’t raise any objections to my demands.

“Haha, of course.”

“Of course, we should. We’ve even prepared for you a larger reward.”

I noticed a reward twice as much as the original when I looked at them.

Of course, I didn’t know if they actually prepared it in advance or if they prepared it urgently for my request, but I put all of it in my inventory with a smile on my face because they acquiesced to my request. action

After that, I talked with them a little longer, then told them that if they wanted to, they could take back the extra rewards for me whenever they wanted. Then I got on a plane bound for Korea right away because this was not my place where I could rest comfortably.

At the small conference room of the Myongjin Shelter.

“…”

“…”

“…”

My father, my brother, my sister, and Director Sok, the head of the Strategy Department, stared at me in anticipation, anxiously waiting to hear about my meeting with the Holdridge executives .

Of course, they might already have grasped that everything went well because Holdridge arranged for me to fly back on one of their exclusive planes.

As if she couldn’t remain silent any longer, my sister asked first, “So how did it go? It looks like you have succeeded in smashing the statue…”

I took something out of my inventory without answering her question.

It was the 30,000 coins and 20 billion golden rings that could be exchanged for coins.

It was the reward that the Holdrige people promised me in return for me destroying the statue.

And that wasn’t all. I then took out another set of items, which was the same amount of coins and golden rings that could be exchanged for coins as the previous one.

In other words, I stacked 60,000 coins and 40 billion golden rings that could be traded for coins on the table.

Everyone, including my father, looked at me with suspicious eyes.

So I opened my mouth casually, “The job I carried out there was quite difficult for just a reward of 20 billions golden rings and 30,000 coins. So I asked them for some more.”

After I said that, I pushed exactly half the 40 billion golden rings and 60,000 coins to the center of the table, and took the other half. Of course, I was a little greedy for the coins, but since I gave them to my family and Myongjin, not others, I stopped being greedy.

Besides, I gained so much this time that I didn’t have to be so greedy for the remaining 30,000 coins.

Watching me quietly, my father opened his mouth.

“No, you don’t have to give them to us. Just take them all because you did all the work alone.”

“That’s right. When you become stronger, we also become stronger. So, take them all.”

Even though my family members including my father wanted me to take back the coins and golden rings on the center of the table, I didn’t.

Instead, I placed a Memory Bead that recorded this time’s events at the Holdridge Headquarters, for it was evidence that showed the most definitive lesson about how much disaster human greed could bring about.

Of course, if the statue appeared, even I would not be able to break it quickly.

Anyway, we wrapped up our conversation like that.

After the meeting, I accessed ‘Revival Legend’ to make up for what I missed today.

At the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan the next day.

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

I kept hunting, as always.

I knew I had been growing steadily stronger, but somehow, I felt like the Roots were growing faster than me, so I hunted harder than ever before.

At that moment, I received a message from Director Sok.

[Sok: Juyoung, can we talk?]

[Lumen: Sure.]

[Sok: Well, you don’t really need to know this, but I thought to mention it to you because it all started from you.]

I was a little curious because he said that it all started from me.

So I immediately asked him for more details, and he replied.

[Sok: I think you know that as soon as the regions of Japan, Korea and Mongolia were merged, Japan’s Mitsuya Guild attacked us right away.]

Of course, I knew it. As a matter of fact, the regions between Korea and Japan had been blocked for a long time, regardless of their good or bad relations, but it was Japan’s Mitsuya Guild that attacked us recklessly. During the fight, I confronted the Oizuki brothers who had the traits of Item Master and Skill Master.

I could figure out why Director Sok mentioned it now because the Mitsuya Guild had targeted one area in particular for their invasion. In fact, they previously had hired people in that area to take control of the items that dropped there. It was none other than the stone’s squirrel undigested mineral masses.

[Lumen: Have you found out what the stone squirrel’s undigested mineral masses are used for?]

[Sok: Yes, that’s right. You can check it out if you come to the secret house of Rodon Castle now.]

[Lumen: I’ll come right away.]

I was obviously curious about it because I was aware that despite their devastating defeat, the Mitsuya Guild kept dispatching spies to gather information about the stone squirrels area.

So, I headed straight to the secret house of Rodon Castle.

At the secret house of Rodon Castle a little later.

There were already quite a few people waiting for me there.

In addition to my family members and Director Sok, Chief Secretary Ahn, and some others from the Myongjin Guild were attending the meeting as well.

When I finally arrived, Director Sok opened his mouth.

“The Mitsuya Guild of Japan didn’t say anything, but we could figure out that the target of their invasion was precisely the ‘stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses’. So, as soon as the Mitsuya Guild left, we immediately conducted various investigations, but we could not find any useful information. But yesterday, we confirmed the use of the mineral masses from a Mitsuya Group executive we spent a long time buying off.”

Just as Sok said, I was also aware that the Myongjin Guild started investigating the stone squirrels’ undigested mineral masses right after the Mitsuya Guild admitted defeat and retreated.

However, there was no significant progress in Myongjin’s investigation.

But this time it was clear that Director Sok found some definitive clues because he confidently pulled something out of his pocket.

It was a memory bead.

When Director Sok immediately played it, an image of an NPC and a man standing in front of that NPC appeared in the air.

Apparently, the man was the Mitsuya Guild executive that Director Sok mentioned.

The man in the video approached the NPC.
