I never run out of mana Pt. 2

chapter 78

"We've received word that all four portal explosions in Yangpyeong have been suppressed. Here we have the vice head researcher of Korea's Awakened association, Mr. Hwang Inung. Vice department head, if you will."

"Yes. Nice to meet you. I am Hwang Inung."

"Four portals exploded at the same time."

"Yes."

"But you say that the portals were suppressed faster than before? Even though there were four different places the portals exploded in."

"Yes. We were able to stop them before any damage could be done with swift and accurate deployments, just like we prepared and practiced beforehand."

"Yes. Thank you for all your hard work. But the continuous explosions occurring in Korea. What do you think is the reason behind them all?"

"We are still searching for the reason behind it. The global Awakened association is assisting us as well."

"It's been nearly one month since the first level 29 portal has exploded, but you're telling us that the reason still hasn't been discovered yet?"

"There are rumors going around that the portal explosions are artificial. What do you think about these accusations?"

"Yes. I have talked about that possibility through discussions. But I can say for sure that the chance of that being true is 0%."

"Is that so. Is there any guesses as to why this is only occurring in Korea?"

"We'll let the public know once the investigation is thoroughly completed."

Jong Ho, Ho Jin, and I were focusing on the TV.

We felt anger rise in us after listening to such nonsense being said over the TV.

Ho Jin, who knew Hwang Inung, spoke up.

"Look at him, turning a blind eye till the very end. He's probably doing exactly as the association president Choi Man Seo is telling him to do. Dirty rat..."

"Out of the 4, I suppressed 2 of them. And I guess they're going to avoid the topic of the radical faction until the very end."

"They were always like this. They take all the credit for themselves, and if anything goes wrong, they're too busy pushing the blame elsewhere."

"Glad that the level 34 dungeon and I weren't discovered at least."

"Hey. Min-Cheol. Don't you think that it would be better to go to the level 34 dungeon in Yangpyeong for awhile? Even though they're giving false reports like that, the Awakened who were deployed then would know the truth of how the two level 29 portals were taken care of in less than half an hour."

"Of course. That's why I asked you to find any other level 34 dungeons."

"Ho Jin hyung-nim. About the other portal location I asked about. How did it go?"

"Hoho. I found one ahead of time. But the one downside is that it's quite far away..."

"It's okay. I'll be using Warp anyways."

"Ah. Of course. It's around Paju DMZ."

"Wow.... It's quite far away. Please let me know of the exact location later."

"Yes. Will do."

"Where does hyung and mister hunt nowadays?"

"Where? The level 18 dungeon."

"Yep."

"Then should I put Healing Denial and Lower Resist in the ring as well?"

"Why? I don't think we'll need it? They melt with just one Meteor."
