Buuuung.

Late one night, an SUV was moving along a dirt country road.

The four-wheel drive SUV, which looks luxurious and quite sturdy, was showing off its majesty by easily climbing the rugged terrain of the mountain itself.

At first glance, you might think that it is just a car driving on a country road and that because it is an off-road terrain, you are driving a sturdy car.

However, if someone with a bit of reasoning ability sees that scene, wouldn’t the first thing they question is that the car’s headlights are still not on even though it is full of luggage and climbs the dark side of the mountain where not a single star can be seen.

It looks like the light may be broken.

And inside that SUV, an unusual conversation was going on.

“Wow, this mountain road is so rough. pole! Can’t you drive the car properly?”

“It’s still going slowly. I can’t even turn on the light on this thing, so if the wheels get stuck in the mud, it’s the end.”

“Well, I guess that’s true too. Then, drive it slowly and safely. It’s so shaking that I’m going to get motion sickness.”

The man in the driver’s seat, called Paul, glanced at the rearview mirror and glanced at the backseat where the woman’s voice came from.

There was a woman with curly hair riding in that seat, and contrary to reports that she might get motion sickness, she looked quite relaxed.

He looked relaxed, or rather, a little bored, blowing air into his mouth and swinging one of his crossed legs as if he were kicking them forward.

The man in the passenger seat talks to her as she watches her legs shake in the back seat.

“Rania, are you sure you’ll be okay? This is incredibly dangerous. It’s also illegal. If you get caught with this.”

“You said this came from the informant. Of course it’ll be okay, Daniel.”

“Ha, but this is going in without any protection? If you get discovered by monsters… .”

“No, I said there was no need to worry… ”

“Yeah, I was worried about that too.”

Even Paul in the driver’s seat cuts her off and agrees with Daniel in the passenger seat. Paul frowned slightly as he glanced at the rearview mirror again.

There is no way not to worry.

“Oh, don’t worry, everyone. Why is our team so scared? huh? Have you ever done as the informant said and it didn’t work out? If you film it well, this video will be really great!”

Daniel sighed. Yes, you are correct. If it goes well, the number of views for this video will be truly enormous.

A new tube channel that started out of admiration for Northmund, who suddenly appeared in the world.

The video platform’s channel, which started out small because we all liked each other, grew so big that they were being chased by that channel.

“Rania. But can you trust what the informant said? It’s been going well so far, but this report is too strange.”

Daniel opened his mouth to her once again.

As the channel grew bigger and more well-known, stories started coming from various places. From people saying they want to join the channel to people making huge donations.

And there are countless people who send in various reports saying they are cooperating with the channel.

And a mysterious informant who has been sending reports continuously for about two years.

And the information was really surprising, because each and every tip he sent was almost a jackpot.

From the location of the outbreak at the gate, to the government or agency soldiers dispatched there, to a safe location for filming because it is an area with few monsters.

They were sending information as detailed as a tip that would not be known to anyone who was not involved.

Daniel couldn’t deny the fact that the anonymous informant was largely responsible for the fact that their channel was now a huge dinosaur, one of the most popular on the platform.

The fact that you can film the fearsome monsters and Northmund cutting them down from closer than anyone else is already guaranteed to be a huge hit.

What is the reason people around the world watch movies? People pay a lot of money to go to a movie theater and take a seat in order to visually experience the sense of presence and action that results in excellent visual beauty.

People want to see Northmund’s heroic deeds in direct video, but the news shows Northmund defeating local monsters somewhere. Because I don’t want to convey textual information in the same way.

“Daniel. Now stop talking about it. This is the first report I’ve seen in a while. I know it’s dangerous. Still, I can’t miss this number.”

When Rania interrupted him, Daniel sighed and crossed his arms.

In fact, this report came after almost half a year.

As there is no provocative content, the number of views of the video gradually decreases and the reactions of viewers are dull.

And it was true that she seemed quite nervous about the newly growing channels of her competitors.

Daniel, who was about to say something more in response to her reaction, paused and closed his mouth. She must have been worried too.

No matter how much I pretended to be okay, I couldn’t hide the worry that crossed my face.

‘No matter how much I think about it, that informant is strange.’

Is he an employee of the organization? No, that alone doesn’t explain it.

This is because it not only tells you the location of the gate or the location of Northmund, but also knows the location of the gate that will occur in the future.

Of course, based on his research, the reported content seems to have a high probability of a gate occurring in some area. Although this may be a bit clumsy, the information has never been wrong.

If the location of the gate has really been discovered, why has there never been a news story about it?

Although it was helpful information to them, they were ignoring it, but if you look closely, there were one or two strange things.

This report was even more strange since there were so many suspicious cases before.

It seems that a unique monster will appear in a rural village in Romania, Eastern Europe. He wanted to see it himself, but it was difficult to do it with you, so he asked that the scene be broadcast live on New Tube.

‘This obviously won’t be overlooked by the organization.’

If you were to ask who their channel’s biggest enemy is, of course it would be GDO.

In every case, they file an application for a video ban on their channel and delete the video, and videos they deem important are simply deleted without permission.

There was a time when their channel was hacked and all their videos were taken down, and there was also a time when they were kidnapped and threatened on the street by people who appeared to be agents.

Because it was at that level, I didn’t think I would just ignore it if a live broadcast filming this monster was held. If you do something wrong, you could end up in prison.

While Daniel was shaking his head in a confused state of mind, their SUV gradually came to a stop and eventually turned off.

“Everyone is here. If you walk about 300 meters from here, you will reach Padreni Village.”

“Okay then, everyone pack your bags and come down.”

First, Rania White opens the back door of the car and takes out her broadcasting equipment.

There was silence inside the car for a moment at that sight, but Daniel soon broke the silence, winked at Paul, got out of the car, and headed toward the trunk.

Daniel, who took a large camera from the trunk, quickly followed Rania, who was ahead.

“What about Paul?”

“Paul told me to stay in the car. Someone has to guard the car. ‘Because something might happen where you have to run away urgently.’

“That’s right.”

For a moment, the sound of footsteps continued on the country road.

The pair of man and woman who are the owners of the steps do not enter the village, but head towards the hill near the village.

The village of Padreni reported was a village surrounded by gentle hills similar to the mountains behind the neighborhood. First of all, they came to that conclusion because they knew that something dangerous might happen and their expensive cameras were able to take decent images from a long distance.

“Something a little strange?”

Daniel, who was looking down at the village using his binoculars from the top of the hill, suddenly made a curious voice.

“What?”

“Look at the village carefully. He doesn’t act like he’s popular.”

“It’s time now, so most of them are probably in bed. Normally, country people go to bed very early.”

“It’s not at that level. Look, there are a lot of houses with their front doors open and more than one house with broken windows.”

In response to Rania’s question, Daniel shakes his head and denies her story. It’s not just one or two abandoned houses that appear as people move.

It looked like an abandoned village where the village itself had disappeared.

Gates occur in places like this? At this level, it wouldn’t be a big deal even if it was a video distance. Moreover, they do not know that they, the only humans, may become the priority targets of monsters.

Just as Daniel was frowning at the rising questions and concerns, Rania shook her head and took out a small filming device from her pocket.

“Yes. Then you are filming videos to upload to NewTube. Anyway, since I’ve come this far, I have to get something.”

“Rania, what about you?”

“I have to turn on the broadcast as the informant requested. Well, it’s been a while since I did a live broadcast.”

Rania mutters that and begins to prepare for the broadcast. Soon, as soon as the broadcast is marked as ON AIR, numerous people begin to enter her chat room.

ewqlksdklfj: Oh? Is this channel broadcasting on? Am I number one?

ELLEM-LOVES-ME: Wow! Rania! It’s been a really long time since I did a live broadcast.

KillAllMosters: Wow, I watch this show after work with a glass of beer. Hahaha.

‘Is he in now?’

What Daniel was hoping for was ‘just in case’ the anonymous informant saw this scene and saw this area that was almost like an empty plain. It was a peaceful development that ended with @◦.

But it didn’t seem like it would end that easily.

Since it was a live broadcast that had been on for a long time, the atmosphere was gradually getting hotter, and the number of viewers was well over 100,000 at one point.

Should we say that it is the power of a huge newtuber with 30 million subscribers?

“Hello everyone! This is Rania White. Today I came to the area that an anonymous informant reported.”

DSFWF: Oh! Is this a gate incident?

Are there any Koreans here?: Are there any Koreans in this room?

GAYMuslimPride: Is Northmund here too? Oh, have you ever seen Northmund’s human form? It’s really my style.

Seongji who wants to enter Elada: I am Korean.

“Ah, unfortunately, Northmund is not there. However, there is a report that the gate opens here.”

ㅇㅇ: Does the gate open here? Then aren’t you in danger too?

“Ahaha, that’s right, but we have to show this scene to our viewers first! Because I am a person who exists for our viewers. everyone! Have you ever intuitively felt the gate open and monsters come out? Today I came out to take pictures of that scene.”

CEX-XES donated $3,500.

[Kiya, of course Rania is the best! Rania! Oh nice!]

Furry Is True LOVE donated $1,700.

[Rania, take this! It’s the price of lying in bed and watching monsters.]

Daniel held his head and frowned. The good news was that the atmosphere was good.

In an instant, donations from big players poured in, the atmosphere heated up, people kept coming to her broadcast, hosting came in from all directions, and the number of viewers grew even more.

The total number of viewers has already reached 200,000.

However, you should not be swayed by the atmosphere. I thought about it before, but this is an abandoned village. In other words, the only living people in this space are Rania and Daniel.

Gates usually appear in densely populated areas, but if a gate occurs here, they will be targeted first.

“Rania. First, be a little nervous and speak less loudly. No, refrain from talking as much as possible and turn off the screen of your phone to check chat. It can stimulate monsters.”

“Okay. Everyone then, please understand a little bit─”

That moment,

Fishishishish─

Something begins to stir in the very center of the village.

Because it was a town in the middle of the night, immersed in darkness where not even the moon could be seen, the shape could not be clearly seen—

“Gate!”

—There was no one here who would not have noticed that it was a gate.

The information sent by the mysterious informant was true.

Daniel hurriedly fixed the camera and hid behind a tree, and Rania, who had been talking excitedly, suddenly turned serious wolf eyes and knelt down on the ground and watched the scene.

‘what? ‘I can’t see very well.’

Because it was dark and the distance was so far away, the situation could not be clearly seen.

Looking at the space shaking greatly, the gate was quite large, medium to large size, but there was no monster-like being sticking out from there.

Daniel looked down at the scene for a moment and then operated his camera. In any case, if monsters came out, they couldn’t get closer because they wouldn’t want their presence to be discovered by them.

Therefore, Daniel hurriedly wiped the sweat from his hands on his pants due to nervousness, then focused his eyes on the camera and adjusted the zoom.

His camcorder has a super zoom function. This was possible because it was an incredibly expensive product that had reached the ultra-telephoto stage, surpassing the 24-600mm telephoto lens.

And the moment its existence is confirmed using a zoom function similar to that of an optical microscope.

Daniel shook his head greatly.

‘Daniel!’

Rania gasped in surprise. Daniel moved his body almost as if he was not thinking about being discovered by the monsters.

Rania was surprised to see that and screamed in her heart. You idiot! What if I get caught by monsters?

2scissors: Oh, if I do that, I’ll be caught by monsters. Daniel what?

ㅁㄴㅇㅎ: Daniel, are you crazy? Rania, calm down! We’re all nervous.

The camera attached to the island in front of Rania was filming everything and broadcasting it.

Therefore, close to 200,000 viewers around the world are currently watching Daniel’s seizure live.

The sound of the camcorder rolling on the dirt was heard along with a thud.

The person who made that sound was Daniel. Now he has dropped the camera and is moving his whole body creaking like a person possessed by a ghost.

“Hey, hey!”

Daniel was shaking his body with a ghost-like force, as if every joint in his body was twisting.

His feet, placed at an 11-shaped angle, created various numbers. The joints were distorted like a figure 8 and sometimes formed a figure 4.

gradually

His neck turned and soon his eyes met Rania.

“Ah, ah, ah.”

Rania was so scared that she couldn’t even think of running away. No, I wanted to run away, but my whole body was frozen and I couldn’t even lift a finger.

I wanted to close my eyes and cover my ears, but my ice-cold body wouldn’t allow it.

And just like that, Rania faced Daniel’s pitch-black eyes.

FasterThanLight: What is that! That’s it.

Bangusuck girls: Rania, what on earth is this?

The chat window facing Daniel expands. It’s as if a ghost has grabbed my hand and I can’t take it off. Everything is stretched out.

“… .”

Rania also made eye contact with the being. Something in your brain. It was penetrating deep into the source of unconsciousness.

It roughly rips through one’s brain, cutting out countless memories and painting them over with black paint.

She raised her trembling hands and ran them through her curly hair. The hair was torn into clumps and blood flowed from the torn scalp.

And her hands continued to pick at the torn pieces of meat.

Is this what it feels like to face the vast universe?

It was as if a transcendent being had pulled her down from a high dimension to a low dimension, and her time and space were kneaded like dough and became a mess.

And nothing mattered now. What this was or who I was didn’t matter anymore.

Something inside me was laughing.

Because her reality was covered in deep black and she couldn’t distinguish anything.

The chat window also hasn’t come up since some time ago.

What is it? She never put any restrictions on chatting. Even though most of the 200,000 viewers are still participating in the broadcast.

No one was chatting.

However, it only happens occasionally.

Meaningless letters. A few letters appeared intermittently that seemed to have been accidentally pressed while swinging the arm wildly.

In this space filled with endless darkness, only the moon in the sky, which had the only color, was watching this scene.

And the only light source was also covered by thick clouds, as if caught by a curtain, leaving no light in this space.
