Chapter 245
Episode 245. First failure (3)
At the same time as the magic circle was created, Gremory got in between Dantalian and Baal.
“Hey. Ballack! This… … .”
“Gremory. Be polite.”
“Yoon Taeyang doesn’t know the magic circle of the contract. This is an unfair contract.”
The magic circle swayed at Gremory’s remarks.
Balak’s eyebrows furrowed.
“Are you interfering now?”
“of course. The magic circle of the contract is almost the only way to keep faith between transcendents. If you set a bad precedent, not only me but also other transcendents should suffer.”
“You say something funny. How many times have the already stupid Transcendentalists… … .”
Balak continued to speak and shook his head.
The important thing now was not the war of words with Gremory.
“Hey Gremory. Do you want to pretend to be with me?”
Gremory is extremely reluctant to fight.
This was a widely known story among demon lords.
“that’s right. I’m reluctant.”
Gremory shrugged.
Confidence flowed from her gaze.
It’s not the kind of confidence that you can fight and win.
Gremory’s confidence went hand-in-hand with the composure Dantalian showed as he parried the sun’s assault.
The certainty that Balak couldn’t touch him.
“… … .”
Eventually, Balak shrugged.
“Then you can inspect the magic circle of the contract. Even if I propose unreasonable contract conditions, you can stop it.”
“No, not signing a contract… … .”
“I thought you wanted mortals to return to my dimension entirely. is not it?”
“… … That’s right.”
“I don’t know how you see me, but I’m not here to offer you an unfair deal. As the dragon lord, I proudly came to meet Earth’s representative, Yoon Taeyang.”
Balak looked at the sun.
“If you refuse a deal, I’m not going to force you.”
“Hmm… … .”
Gremory looked at the sun.
– What bullshit is this?
-Summary: The players who went to the dimensional labyrinth returned to Earth, and at the same time, the demon kings followed them.
-Hellgate open.
-Evande.
-300 million stop loss a.
-Sorry, but there are 7 billion here;
– You say you enjoy Dantalian in real life? I can’t stand this lol
– Wow! A dragon flying in front of our house!
– Intuitively, it seems to be boring.
– No, you crazy people; It’s not good.
– It’s a game where the difficulty goes crazy.
– End of the Earth! End of the Earth! End of the Earth!
Taeyang moved the chat window to a corner and looked at Balak.
“okay. Let’s hear what you have to say.”
“It should come out like that.”
Balak laughed cheerfully.
“You know that it’s not a problem that will end once you pass through the 72nd floor and return to Earth.”
“okay.”
So Balak put forward a condition.
If the sun successfully carries out my mission, Balak’s dragon will not invade the earth.
In addition, he said that he would not invade the 72nd floor, where the gate is located.
“My purpose is to make the dimensional labyrinth my territory. 72 sculptural dimensions. Ah, if I pass the 72nd floor to you, it will be 71.”
“You mean the dimensional labyrinth as your territory?”
“okay. The Earth is an environment where more than a few billion people can live, and it has not developed enough to produce transcendental beings, so you may not be able to feel it.”
What happens when one species seizes the hegemony of a dimension?
Many things will happen, but the most representative change is the overwhelming increase in the number of dominant species.
The sun shook its head.
“Ah, I think I know what you mean.”
population growth.
It’s not Korea, but from a global point of view, it was also happening on Earth.
As science advances, people are able to survive longer and more tenaciously.
Also, as the population increased, the rate of population growth also increased.
In 1804 the world’s population crossed one billion, probably for the first time.
In 1927, the world population passed 2 billion, and in 1960 it passed 3 billion.
After that, the world population exceeded 4 billion, 5 billion, and 6 billion in 14, 13, and 12 year cycles, and again 12 years later, in 2011, the world population exceeded 7 billion.
Even major events such as the Great Famine and Epidemic War succeeded in reducing the population in the short term, but in the end, it did not prevent the population from increasing.
Even before the sun entered the dimensional labyrinth, somewhere in the news, there was a topic related to terraforming on Mars.
“okay. We need larger territories.”
Balak grinned.
“And our Balaur army is already ready to occupy the dimensional labyrinth while they fight above.”
“You said you already finished?”
“okay. I haven’t put in any troops above the 50th floor yet, but below I can lift a finger and it’s done.”
Gremory murmured.
“That’s why you were able to come in.”
“okay. The coordinates you scattered are the coordinates of 15 stages after all. I’m smart, but there are many capable mages in my legion.”
Balak smiled contentedly.
“Taeyang, you are grateful. Thanks to that, the upper floor was in a mess, and the only thing you could observe was the library in Bassago, which you also destroyed with your own hands.”
“under… … .”
It seemed that the work carried out according to Dantalian’s plan unexpectedly benefited Balak.
“Why are the targets Barbatos and Dantalian?”
From Taeyang’s point of view, they are enemies that must be eliminated.
Taeyang does what he originally intended to do, but gives additional compensation.
The conditions were good enough to be suspicious, so I had no choice but to doubt it.
Balak smiled as if he understood Taeyang’s feelings.
“Baal is dead and the story with Agares is over. If that’s the case, the only demon kings that form a group are the two, Barbatos and Dantalian.”
In fact, Dantalian was not a demon king who rallied the demon lords and acted like that, but Balak could not be ignored as he showed his potential through this case.
“Wouldn’t that be a bad suggestion for you too?”
At Balak’s words, a wind blew from somewhere.
It was an unspoken demonstration by Arasil.
“So to speak, you are a mercenary. I already made the board, so all I have to do is jump from above.”
Baal looked at the sun.
‘Dantalian forged it really well.’
Even from the perspective of Baal, the transcendent, the sun was a very attractive weapon.
Ballack also confirmed that talent firsthand.
I don’t know anything else, but Yoon Taeyang’s interpersonal combat ability was to the point where he competed for the top spot among the demon kings.
In addition, it was equipped with Balak’s own body and Purkas’ exclusive power, Kill (殺).
Balak had no choice but to swallow a bitter smile because of the deprivation of the divine dragon flower, but in the end, the sun fostered by Dantalian was truly an anti-personnel weapon with perfect software and hardware.
‘I don’t have time right now, but if I digest Baal’s divinity, it will really become a thing.’
It would be different in a war against a large army, but it would be a very powerful being in a war against a person.
To put it another way, another transcendental figure comparable to Baal could have been born.
The reason why Balak gave Taeyang favorable conditions was because he saw his growth potential.
Balak was a ruler who prioritized the prosperity of his species over his personal pride.
If you help the sun grow and build a positive relationship, it will come in handy someday.
In addition to that, when the giant dimension called Earth is opened through the sun.
‘There will be an uproar for a while.’
There was a high possibility that a tectonic shift would occur in the dimensional force composition centered on the earth.
This is a procedure that cannot be stopped even if Balak blocks the 72nd floor and reduces the transcendentalists to zero.
At least, according to Ballack’s experience, that was the case.
Balak was not interested in the fate of the earth, but in his relationship with the sun.
Even if the dimension perishes, the transcendent sun won’t die.
Earth perishes. Yoon Taeyang survives.
If that happened, Balak was even thinking of recruiting Taeyang as a member of the dragon army.
“Can I ask you one more question?”
“Of course.”
“If you need territory, wouldn’t it be better for you to aim for a huge dimension?”
Balak shook his head.
“Aiming for a giant dimension is a gamble.”
“gambling?”
“okay. This is because the environment is vastly different for each dimension. And living things are bound to be affected by it.”
“ah.”
The sun opened my eyes wide without even realizing it.
It was.
A living being is a very sensitive being.
Fish live and die depending on the temperature of the water 1 degree 2 degrees.
Humans are no different.
Wasn’t it because of germs that came from other environments after all, the natives of the American continent suffered mass deaths from infectious diseases that were close to disaster?
An environment in which aliens could live, of course, was not likely to be an environment in which humans could live.
No, considering that there are various environments such as the sea, rivers, and land on Earth, and living things adapt to only a small part of the environment, it was right to see that the possibility was very small.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a transcendental person or beings in the process of going to a transcendental status like the player. But what I need is an environment in which ordinary people can live.”
“ah.”
“The stages of the dimensional labyrinth have built an environment in which all ‘moderate’ living things can live, with the help of demon lords themselves. However, what if I invade the earth and the earth is not an environment suitable for dragons to live in?”
If it was a small or medium dimension, Balak and the dragon were able to somehow terraform by joining forces.
However, it is not a gigantic dimension like Earth.
There is a stark difference in size.
In addition, the resistance of the dimensional unit that will be experienced during the terraforming process is also different from that of the small and medium sized dimension.
Terraforming a giant dimension like Earth was practically impossible even for the dragon army that invaded and conquered dozens of dimensions.
The worried Taeyang opened his mouth.
“So what are the conditions?”
Parching.
As the sun expressed its intention to sign a contract, the magic circle swayed.
“Death of Demon King Barbatos and Dantalian.”
“Should I do the work alone?”
“No, I am going too. You might as well take your party with you if necessary.”
The sun clenched its fists.
Balak’s help means that all of his forces are working on their deaths.
Gremory muttered after checking the magic circle.
“… … There is no toxin clause.”
“There must be none.”
In general, contracts through the magic circle of contracts are more like a war of words.
It was rare for a contract to be concluded with just one or two words so neatly.
The sun licked his lips with his tongue.
“good. contract.”
“Good idea.”
Balak tapped the sun on the shoulder with a cheerful gesture.
“By the way, can I add one more condition?”
“Tell me.”
“This is a story based on the assumption that everything ends successfully and I digest Baal’s divinity normally.”
The sun shifted its gaze.
At the end was Salomon.
“I’ll hand over your power, Divine Dragon Flower.”
“What is the price?”
“Let’s make the Endless Express stage on the 12th floor as inviolable as the 72nd floor.”
Taeyang grinned at Salomon.
“There is someone in our group from the 12th floor stage.”
