Chapter 237: Dragon – 3

“Haahh…”
Jaehwang got up from his seated posture and lightly stretched his body.
“About 30km now…”
The winter plan for Jaehwang was to break up the Three Thousand Bridges villain group. Although they hid into Elus because of the impediment from Invincible and Jaehwang, it was clear that those villains would come back again after some time.
This plan required the secret assassination of the brain of the group, and that required the Bright Eye. The Bright Eye was simply a detective tool, but it gives him the advantage that could turn his plan much more diverse.
Because of this, Jaehwang devoted himself to gain the skill of the Bright Eye.
How to raise proficiency was surprisingly simple…
The way is steady pursuit. He asked one of the express edicts that live in Invincible Palace and received his blood.
They had already talked about the usage beforehand, and the edict happily accepted it. Not only for Jaehwang, but they practiced in a similar way to increase the proficiency of the tracking skills with each other.
In particular, Jaehwang had a unique tracking skill of the Express Secret Order No. 1, so he could give them various advice.
“A surprisingly demanding condition you are in. Blood of the opponent, if you can get enough blood, you need to assume that you will hurt someone. Let’s aim for the 100% proficiency in the skill. The blood requirement might change. If the conditions were relaxed, it would be really useful considering its range.”
His requirement for his tracking skills was the smell of his opponent.
Jaehwang’s skill level in the Bright Eye went up quite fast.
Of course, Jaehwang implemented the Bright Eye during his raid while leveling up, but better the ability of his opponent’s stealth, his speed would be different. This speed could not be achieved without the help of the express secret.
In the afternoon, an oak road raid was scheduled near the northern border, so when Jaehwang was about to finish his training and picking up his clothes, an agent of the Martial Art House opened the door of the training room without warning. He broke the rule that he must not disturb Jaehwang during a training session unless it was an emergency.
“Jaehwang, you must see this.”

*KWWAAAAAA*
A wave of blue rays tore the city…
“Get away!”
*bang! Kwak! bang!!!*
The cars exploded at random, and the debris from the building poured in.
Straight blue flashes penetrated and burnt everything that blocked them.
A giant golden monster hovered above them, and the footage just shook as if it was taken by a smartphone cam. Whenever a dazzling flash of light shines on, it reflected the viewers who are looking firmly on the screen.
As the screen switches, an announcer would appear with this terrifying look on his face along with the sound of people’s screams.
[A terrible scene of El Venas Town in Los Angeles where the hell of great fusion has arrived. To date, the United States and the State have issued the highest level of warning, MH 10, with 142 reported deaths and 1264 people missing. The name of the monster that caused the destruction was named as the Gold Dragon, and the Gold Dragon disappeared toward the west of LA…]
“It took it three minutes to destroy one block. Based on this, we could consider that the Gold Dragon is a Tier 11 Monster,” the Monster Resources team leader said with a serious look.
That announcement confused for everyone in the conference room. It’s as if the people felt like 10 billion dollars was a lot of money but when it comes to 1 trillion dollars, they’re all too busy to calculate its strength in their heads.
“Forgive me for being late. I just got a call from the US president.” The head of the foreign affairs team, who hastened to open the meeting room door, said.
Irumi nodded at his words. An 11th tier monster has appeared so it was natural to contact Jaehwang, but the head of the external affairs team was not finished.
“But it’s not a raid request, it was a raid support request. ”
“A request for support?”
“Yes, this is a request for assistance.”
Irumi’s eyes frowned towards the head of the external affairs team.
Raid requests and raid support requests are quite different. A request is a request for a raid, and a support request means that they would just provide their support. There was a big difference between them. The existing Martial Art House policy was under the condition of taking all of the resources gathered during the raid. If this becomes a form of support, it means that the US would oversee the operation. In addition, the price of Jaehwang was higher, so if the raid failed, they could blame him.
Someone may say that the Martial Art House was greedy, but this was the most optimized raid method fit for everyone. The biggest reason, of course, was that a precedent happened in japan.
Irumi did not want to approve anything without entering the operation right. It was not to say that the United States is like Japan, but Irumi was determined that she could not have blind faith in any nation.
“Are you sure they are asking for support?”
“Yeah. I checked it twice. ”
“Hmm.”
Irumi was seriously troubled by the words of the head of the external business team.
“Tell them that we will think about it.”
At the end of Irumi’s words, the Operations Support Team raised their hands.
“Secretary.”
“Yeah?”
“I know you’re concerned, but this opponent is a Tier 11 monster. I don’t think we should reject them straight up.”
He lowered his hand as he noticed other people around the operation support team.
His words of great courage have a precondition. Jaehwang may not be able to afford to kill a tier 11 monster alone, because unlike the others that he had hunted before, this new monster showed a different kind of capability. It moved according to its invisible strategic movements, unlike the other monsters that moved according to their instincts.
The atmosphere turned cold. He seemed like doubting the invincible power of Jaehwang, which has now changed into faith.
And Jaehwang was also considering his point. No, he knew much more than them, so the depth of his concern was deeper.
Why did the dragon attack America?
This was the question Jaehwang was concerned with.
Baeklin said that the dragon was a bystander and an observer. It didn’t concern itself with humans like them watching ants fight. So far, the fight with the dragon was not the object of Jaehwang. But did the dragon just went to the US to begin its attack?
“It’s quite annoying.”
‘Baeklin had asked me not to tell anyone about the dragon.’
They were too burdensome to consider as allies or as enemies, and if their presence had spread, there would be variables in the future dimensional separation plans. Jaehwang also agreed with it and also has kept it secret. Not that he didn’t trust the Martial Arts House family, but secrets are secrets when few are known.
But now, he might have to fight with the dragon, so he couldn’t keep it a secret any longer.
If unlucky, he might have to fight against a dragon that Baeklin considered as Tier 12.
‘What are the odds against that one?’ Jaehwang asked Goongi.
She was credible because she had much more combat experience than him.
‘90% if you and I do everything’
‘Of course,’ Jaehwang agreed with her.
Goongi, who has completely recovered the power of her heyday and Jaehwang himself, he calculated about that much, but the problem lies elsewhere, there was more than one dragon.
‘What if there’s two?’
‘20%? Even if I aim high, it won’t exceed 30 percent.’
‘Okay.’
There were two dragons. The number would be correct unless Baeklin was lying and had reasons to lose his credibility. So in this case, he can’t let go of the possibility of fighting against two dragons. It was not Jaehwang’s style to just go into a fight and bet everything in his luck.
‘It would be nice to be able to contact Baeklin’
Baeklin was acquainted with the dragon. If Jaehwang could contact him, he could have solved the problem in a way other than a raid. But he was now in the Dark Earth. You can’t look for an unexisting person in this place, at least.
‘We might have to do it.’
‘Are you sure?’
‘Yes. I tried to slow down, but the situation is really not helping.’
‘It’s too dangerous,’ Goongi said in a worrisome tone. Jaehwang was thinking about the Goongiok. It was a prison of soul and time that Goongi made in the past for his training, however, now Jaehwang wanted to enter the Goongiok not to train for martial arts but to study Chintamani Hemolysis.
The reason why Jaehwang wants to study the Chintamani Hemolysis was because of the Arrow of Divine Punishment. As of now, he could only use the Arrow of Divine Punishment once per battle, he had to master this skill not only to defeat the dragons but also for the preparation of his fight on the dark earth.
The problem of studying the Chintamani Hemolysis technique was that it presented a very high risk unlike training for regular martial arts. The Hemolysis technique embodied the supernatural power of the Chintamani Stone.
Studying the Chintamani Hemolysis was the same as studying to embody God’s power.
Even Goongi did not know all about Chintamani stone, this was the reason why she was being cautious.
‘If we need to, we must. I’ll tell them all.’
After much contemplation, Jaehwang opened his mouth.
“From now on, what I say should never go outside this room.”
Irumi, who realized what that meant, manipulated the tablet. After a bit, a layer of thick drywall rose at the exterior of the conference room.
When he was ready, Jaehwang slowly began to talk about what he knew and as his explanation continued, everyone’s face turned pale.
When he said there were two Elus dragons, and it was possible they might have to deal with them together, everyone’s complexion hardened. Tier 12 monsters, not Tier 11… and there’s two. The risk was multiplied by tens times, not just twice. Jaehwang talked about their stance up until now and their attack on the United States after breaking their previous stance.
After the explanation, Irumi said in a little upsetting tone, “If the dragons, who were just a bystander, attacked, then the US might have stimulated them.”
It is not known whether the US had hidden something or not.
However, if America made this mess, Irumi’s idea was that they themselves should deal with it.
“If you have that kind of intelligence, you should be more cautious. A more peaceful resolution could be possible if we knew what went wrong.”
At the words of the Monster Resources team leader, Jaehwang also nodded.
Then, he looked at the head of the external business team.
“For now, the U.S. government cannot go on a raid until the raid plan is in place. America won’t be able to say anything else. Also, try to squeeze out the information of the Gold Dragon from the US government. The more information you have, the better. In addition, the newly established information team’s leader can work towards revealing more of the inside story of this issue. That’s what we need to do.”
“Yes, sir,” A woman in her early thirties with short, sharp eyes replied.
Na Yun-hee, the team leader of the new information team, was appointed by the president, Na Gil-hwan. Although she is Na Gil-hwan’s daughter, she is known for her abilities in the Invincible.
“Monster Resources Team leader, I am asking you to analyze the ability of the dragon.”
“Yes, leave it to me.”
“We might need to prepare for the raid still, please prepare the operation support team accordingly. You are free to use your current 9-tier monster corpse ”
The number of corpses sold to the outside was considerable, but they also owned many in consideration of the international price for the pieces they owned.
“Yes, will do.”
After the work order, Jaehwang got up from his seat and said, “I’m going to go to a closed training for Dragon Raid from now on.”
When Jaehwang said this, everyone looked at him. His opponent was a 12-tier monster. He was trying to face a ridiculously high opponent when everyone else was trying to find a different way than battle.
