You Will Be Blessed If You Do Good Deeds¿ - Chapter 174
âStill, I used my brain for a stupid swarm intelligence.â
The moment I realized that Orbis knew about my leash, I considered several possibilities.
Nam Sung-hee, who Orbis moved⦠⦠could make something up that would make me morally and socially criticized.
Up until now, Iâve been cleverly avoiding the systemâs sanctions, but if they decide to rush in, honestly, I canât avoid the leash tightening.
What if I canât save people in this dungeon break right now?
Or, what if Nam Sung-hee takes someone else hostage and demands something from me?
As long as Iâm under the systemâs sanctions, I have no choice but to listen to Nam Sung-hee.
But the systemâs judgment wonât be in my favor.
I could lose the magic level I just regained.
âIf that happens, honestly, I have no reason to stay on this Earth anymore.â
Thatâs why the system also presented a new achievement item.
The system side can't lose a useful sword either.
'Of course, I still don't like the name-calling.'
Good influence.
To be honest, I don't like it that much.
Good influence, does it have any effect among humans?
I don't trust humans.
In this modern capitalist society, it's a luxury to say that if you have power, you should save others.
This is because we've entered an era where the value of everything is converted into money. The first thing that comes to mind is, "Who helps others for free?"
That's why I don't believe that anyone will be truly moved by me, and even if they are, I don't believe that humans will truly do good deeds.
The low-level hunters who are moving now are also moving because of the various benefits and justifications I've put forward, not because they truly feel sorry for others.
They may be doing good deeds for a little while now.
However, I know that humans are beings who eventually put their own desires first.
Someone's good deeds spread good influence and eventually everyone is helped?
I think that logic is more in the realm of faith.
'But, apart from that, I should use what I can.'
"Mother, come this way! Oh, the wheelchair is broken. I'll carry you to the bunker."
"Thank you, thank you... ... "
"Oh, Hunter! It's shameless, but my father is in that collapsed building... ... Please save him!"
"Don't worry. People will be dispatched there too."
- Ability restriction is lifted.
- Ability restriction is lifted.
System messages that come up.
As the lower-level hunters move busily, my ability restriction was being lifted quickly.
My magic level has already reached its limit... ... but my strength and physical strength levels are rising quickly.
It's a different situation from when all the public opinion praised me before.
âJung Da-on Hunter, a few more Hunters who were trapped in the Dungeon Break have joined us.â
âWe need more hands. Please tell us to cooperate.â
âYes, I understand!â
Whenever there was a change, they would gather around me to report.
It was proof that the lower-level Hunters recognized me as the one who gave orders.
Of course, it was natural.
âJung Da-on Hunter, Iâm sorry, but can I ask you for one more assist magic? I think there are people trapped under the collapsed building.â
âI also need healing magic for the injured!â
âA B-class monster has appeared, and I think Jung Da-on Hunterâs hand will be needed.â
After all, I was the only one who could handle this chaotic situation.
I nodded to the endless requests.
âYes, I will do that.â
A 5km radius around where the Dungeon Break first occurred.
We have to rescue as many civilians as possible and move them to nearby bunkers, while also treating the seriously injured and dealing with the monsters around us as much as possible.
And we have to take low-ranking hunters who have never experienced this kind of situation.
Fortunately, most of them have at least some experience in mandatory service⦠⦠.
âHunter Jeong Da-on, are you okay?â
âThis is too much work, Iâm worried⦠⦠.â
Since most of the situations require my intervention, my position can only rise.
I smiled at someoneâs words.
âThis is something I started doing. Iâm grateful that youâre helping me.â
âOh my, did the student want to help us?â
An old woman who was carried on the back of one of the hunters and was waiting to receive healing magic grabbed my hand.
âI saw it on the news. Youâre student Jeong Da-on, right?â
âYes, youâre right.â
âOh my, oh my⦠⦠You grew up without parents and had a hard time⦠⦠How could he have grown up so wonderfully? My parents in heaven would be proud of him.â
Oh, I didnât have any luck with my parents since my previous life, so I donât really sympathize with him.
Nam Seong-hee, who caused this dungeon break, killed his own son without hesitation to satisfy his own desires.
In many ways, it was a statement that I couldnât sympathize with, and in some ways, it was made up of prejudice, but whatâs important is the sincerity in my grandmotherâs words.
Even though it may be narrow-minded, the picture that appears on the outside is not bad.
I smiled while holding my grandmotherâs hand.
âI⦠⦠grew up receiving help from the ⤠Nоvеâ ight ⤠(Read more on our source) grandmother next door since I was little. Stay healthy, Grandma.â
Itâs hard to cure old age with healing magic, but it was enough to heal the leg injury that was immediately visible.
And it was also clear how this scene would be seen by the ordinary people who were rushing to avoid the sudden dungeon break.
One of the lower-level hunters ran over again busily.
âIt seems that a few more B-class monsters have appeared. First of all, Lee Pyeong-hwa Hunter came out first⦠⦠!â
âYes, Iâll go now.â
Anyway, Iâve already pulled out most of the scenes that I wanted to pull out here.
Recovery is a problem later, but for now, Iâve used the lower-level hunters for hours and done my best to rescue people as much as I could.
As I got up from my seat, I could hear the whispers of the ordinary people gathered nearby.
âSuch a good student⦠⦠I really donât know why the rumors were so bad at first.â
âIsnât that obvious? How could someone in this country look down on a hunter who suddenly appeared?â
An old man who had been sympathizing with Lee Pyeong-hwa from the beginning and had come forward to help me shouted with his chest puffed out.
âSo everyone, stop watching the strange news and leave a protest message. Itâs the same when you see professors talking nonsense on TV, huh⦠⦠.â
âOh my, is the protest message the problem? Thatâs something that should be done.â
âI heard that the nutritional supplement that professor sold was bad for the liver.â
âYouâre so young, I really respect you. Donât push yourself too hard.â
âPlease take care of me until the end of the dungeon break!â
âJeong Da-on! Jeong Da-on!â
Theyâre having fun.
I smiled at the cheers of the general public and thought that way.
âI donât expect anything big anyway.â
Thatâs a good thing, a good influence.
Even if they cheer me on now, peopleâs hearts change when they put out an urgent fire.
The naive time when I believed that if I was helpful, their support would always be directed towards me is already a distant past.
âItâs enough to forgive some of the things Iâll do in the future.â
Thereâs a game where you collect puzzles of the same color that fall from above and burst them to make them disappear.
Good deeds and sins canât be eliminated like in that game, but in the current system, theyâre not much different.
âI canât leave Nam Sung-hee alone.â
Even though he was already dead, he promised Lee Woon-gyeol revenge on Nam Sung-hee.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than .net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
Furthermore, from the moment he killed Lee Woon-gyeol with his own hands and caused the dungeon break, that was⦠⦠definitely a bomb.
âEven Orbisâs response was far from what I expected.â
I expected Orbis to infiltrate Nam Sung-hee into my camp and use him as a spy.
However, Orbis treated Nam Sung-hee like a bomb that could be used and thrown away.
My mistake aside⦠⦠If you think about why Orbis made this choice, you can find out a surprising fact.
âThat means Orbis has many useful cards besides Nam Sung-hee.â
At first, I expected Orbis to have only a few cards.
Thatâs because Orbis is the weaker side of this Earth.
The system has already defined Orbis as the âenemy of humanityâ and is busy finding Orbis by giving quests to Yoo Han-ul.
In this situation, I donât know how much power Orbis had built up, but at least it wonât be able to recruit new powers.
It would be difficult just to avoid the systemâs eyes.
In that situation, I thought that if I, a thorn in the eye, tried to grab Nam Sung-hee, one of Orbisâs cards, I would try to gain more from this.
Orbis is a human who harshly squeezes what he has in his hands to pursue his own gains.
And I tried to use Orbisâs nature to figure out Orbisâ current location.
However, Orbis moved differently than I expected.
Nam Sung-hee, a card that was effective in strangling me in Korea, was thrown away.
âBut how is this possible?â
How could Orbis not be in a situation where he was not sorry about losing?
In the first place, why hasnât the system figured out where Orbis is yet?
- The system is doing its best to ensure the userâs survival.
- Itâs looking for the âenemy of humanity.â
The system sent me a message as if it was trying to rebel against me, but I ignored it.
âThis makes the story a bit more interesting.â
The important thing is how Orbis tricked the system despite this stupid swarm intelligenceâs efforts.
In other words, finding that method would help us figure out Orbisâ current location⦠⦠or identity.
And that hint is⦠⦠.
As I walked, I spoke quietly so that only the system could hear.
âIf you hand over my information, the target would be someone like Yoo Han-ul who is definitely a âheroâ by your standards.â
-!
The system showed a sign of shock.
Of course, itâs not that it has an ego, but rather he is just a swarm intelligence, he was not really shocked, but rather surprised by discovering an unexpected variable.
âWhy are you surprised? Itâs a grand quest like saving the world, so thereâs no way he would have left it to just Yoo Han-ul.â
- The âSAVE THE WORLDâ quest is a solo quest for the user, âYoo Han-ul.â
âThe quest name is fine, but itâs about searching for the life-size Buddha. It must be spread all over the world, so he wouldnât have left it to Yoo Han-ul alone. If he had, the swarm intelligence of this world would be very hopeless.â
Itâs just a waste of time to say that Yoo Han-ul is the best among the âgoodâ humans that the system trusts.
And I donât think Yoo Han-ul would have passed on information about me to anyone else.
However, thereâs no way Orbis would have only made the life-size Buddha in Korea.
No matter how busy Yoo Han-ul is, he canât control the entire world.
So even if the system didnât know everything, there must have been people who passed on information about âDengsinbulâ and gave related quests.
-⦠â¦
The system didnât deny what I said.
As expected, as I guessed⦠⦠there were people who received quests about âDengsinbulâ in addition to Yoo Han-ul.
I nodded.
âI think thereâs a high chance that one of those people is Orbis.â
The system gives quests to certain people to find and eliminate âDengsinbulâ.
This alone is evidence that the system is actively intervening.
And my current actions.
Anyone can see that Iâm accumulating good deeds that donât suit me, so isnât that unusual?
Orbis is someone who can easily guess that there was a transaction between me and the system.
- The system distributes quests considering the userâs characteristics.
- The system did not reveal the transaction information with the user, âJeong Da-onâ, to other users.
âYou want to say that since you are a group of good guys, there is no way one of them could be an âenemy of humanityâ, but stop talking so naively.â
He is someone who has successfully avoided the eyes of the system and is still hiding.
I wouldnât be surprised if Orbis took away the soul of someone favored by the system and took their body.
Of course, it would be absurd from the systemâs perspective.
If he was chosen by the swarm intelligence, he must be a good being like Yoo Han-ul, and they must trust him.
But one of those individuals could be a traitor.
âOf course, since it is my story, I donât know whether to believe it or not.â
In the end, I am also a being who made a deal with the system, and to be honest, I am not an ally of humanity.
No matter what I say, in the end, it is up to the system and humans to accept this advice.
I gave a word of advice to the silent system.
âYour enemy was once an emperor who had a continent under his feet.â
Even the daughter of the emperor, she was not a woman who inherited the empire.
Orbis was born as the third princess of a small country whose name the continent did not even know, and yet after a few decades, she swallowed up an entire continent.
No one expected Orbis to grow like that.
âAnd now, she is trying to swallow your star and save her world. You better not think about it lightly.â
- The system asks the user, âJeong Da-onâ, for advice.
- The system wants to find the âenemy of humanity.â
âOf course, you donât have to worry, I will find it.â
I admit that Orbisâ move was sharp, but I do not intend to take it lightly.
That was when.
Kwakwakwak!
A loud explosion rang out.
It was not the sound of a monster.
A literal loud explosion.
The acrid smoke and smell from where the bomb exploded quickly took over my senses.
It seems that Nam Sung-hee has started his last struggle.
I quickened my pace.
âThen, where should I go to blow up the accumulated good deeds?â
How many people do I have to save to offset the sin of killing one person?
