    “… … Yes?”

    “What do you mean by that? Godfather?”

    Everyone’s eyes are wide and they look at me. Even kids like Ga-eun and Si-yu are the same.

    They probably gathered people together to talk about a raid, so they were probably thinking about how each person would participate and how to attack the raid.

    But I honestly have no intention of participating in raids.

    A man who had been sitting still raised his hand.

    “Godfather. As you know, this Han River raid is a very important episode.”

    episode?

    ah. Looks like that person is also a reader.

    “Coins can also be earned in large quantities… . Above all, if you don’t stop it properly, it’s only a matter of time before monsters invade here. Yeouido and Yeongdeungpo are close.”

    It was true.

    It’s just across a small river, and you’re only a bridge away from Yeouido.

    To begin with, Yeouido was also the location of Yeongdeungpo-gu.

    “If you do not participate, you may not be able to handle the monsters. Otherwise, you may be attacked by other survivors who have grown up by catching monsters.”

    People are talking loudly about being punished.

    “It could be so.”

    “If a guy who earned a lot of coins comes in here, won’t there be another problem?”

    “Damn… . Can’t you just stay still?”

    Everyone seems scared.

    People here are basically strong in self-centeredness.

    To be precise, protecting my body is the top priority. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to maintain food or our current lifestyle.

    What if someone from outside earns a lot of coins and comes in here?

    It may vary depending on my level of ability, but I would think there is a possibility that I could be captured or killed.

    Then you either have to suck someone else’s ass, or you get eliminated or kicked out.

    There is no guarantee that either way things will get better than the current status quo.

    And that is also the secret to me being able to maintain this position.

    “So we also have to participate in raids. You have to kill monsters and earn coins. Before it is taken away by others. Isn’t it?”

    “That’s right!”

    “Others will also come to Yeouido after seeing the notification, so we have to take a seat first.”

    “Coin Let’s sweep it all away! Isn’t it? Godfather?”

    The mood of the people leaned more and more towards the man’s words.

    I took a deep sigh.

    “Well, that’s true. If a raid participant loses to a monster, the monsters will flock here. If it were the other way around, participants who had grown by catching monsters would come here. It’s not wrong.”

    “Godfather, then… … !”

    “But that’s only after the raid is over.”

    “… Yes?”

    “We won’t even participate in raids. On the other hand, I won’t even finish the raid.”

    “… … ?”

    The man looks at me with eyes that are difficult to understand.

    That’s right.

    My thoughts are not on whether we do the raid or not or who will finish it.

    In the original, as soon as the raid ends, several episodes proceed at a rapid pace.

    As it progresses, Seoul becomes more and more chaotic, and the world view becomes deeper, so it is no longer just a fight against monsters.

    Raid is a kind of growth plate episode for that. Is it fair to say that the atmosphere of the work changes drastically starting from Raid?

    There are many people who get off at that point.

    ‘But this only happens after the raid is over.’

    In terms of setting, this raid takes place when a deep-sea monster living at the bottom of the Han River opens its eyes.

    In the original, the story unfolds in such a way that when this monster is defeated, the guardian deity becomes angry and summons Dok Go-jun and the raid participants somewhere.

    And when I came back, Seoul became even more messed up.

    If it unfolds to that point, honestly, I can’t handle it either.

    Because the story unfolds so quickly, you quickly start playing at a ‘god level’ level.

    From there, it is completely the protagonist’s solo performance.

    It is also a point where is no longer an apocalypse, but is just a growth story with the main character’s power inflation added.

    Always fighting and becoming stronger, fighting and becoming stronger every day.

    The shattered Seoul is no longer in our minds.

    The article I wrote on the community pointed out exactly that.

    But people didn’t understand.

    I don’t want to go that far.

    There’s no reason to go.

    You can’t even go.

    Why?

    Then you won’t be able to enjoy the apocalyptic healing life you are enjoying now.

    The females can’t eat them either, so they have to leave them behind. Forcibly taken to some place by a god. Start playing with the universe. Like the main character party, you have to act like a dog.

    ‘Why do I do that?’

    Since I am also holding Dok Go-Jun, the progress of the original story must stop here.

    The apocalypse will remain like this.

    That’s my goal.

    But you can’t stop a raid from happening.

    Then all you have to do is stop it from ending.

    So that the raid continues indefinitely.

    And I already had the conditions to do that.

    “Will you just trust me and follow me? That way we can eat popcorn in the back.”

    He assured people with confidence.

    “I shoot the popcorn.”

    *

    Pyo Chan-seok and about 400 survivors were clearing up Yeouido Park.

    “Ugh! Ugh! Get lost! Monster bastard!”

    “Ah. Mr. Kim! I went that way!”

    “Okay! Got it!”

    “Fuck. Eat this.”

    As they were the ones who had survived so far, they all used their abilities to easily eliminate the monsters.

    It already has enough combat power to be no match for monsters of any size.

    Moreover, when we came to Yeouido Park, other survivors who were already nearby joined in, increasing the size even further.

    Now there are almost 500 or more.

    At this level, it was safe to say that most of the survivors in Seoul had gathered.

    “In the original work, where was Kochi?”

    “I remember it just said, “In the middle of Yeouido Park!””

    “Ah fuck. Where on earth is the middle?”

    “Let’s take a look first!”

    Even without any instructions, people set out to find a cocoon on their own.

    If you have already read the original work, Dok Go-Jun will be working hard on timing Kochi by now.

    People who read the original work had a strange sense of anticipation and tension.

    Although he is the main character of the novel, he has a personality that is so crazy that it can be called psychotic.

    But it was so powerful and refreshing. Start by killing everything that gets in your way.

    Of course, wouldn’t they be seen as an obstacle in Dok Go-jun’s eyes? There were some people who were concerned, though.

    The situation was a little different now, with the raid just around the corner.

    At this time, we need at least one more person.

    Dok Go-jun also did not carelessly kill anyone during this period. If I used it, I used it.

    And Dok Go-jun, a character in the novel.

    Now you can see it with your own eyes.

    “Found it!”

    “This way!”

    People flock to hear that they have found it.

    It was hard to see because it was hidden between the trees, but it was definitely huge.

    It was a large cocoon, tightly tied with sticky thread-like material attached to the floor.

    “Wow… . Is this a cocoon?”

    “It’s bigger than I thought.”

    Pyo Chan-seok also ran over to check the cocoon.

    The large cocoon wriggled little by little as if it were alive.

    “Are you saying there are tens of thousands of little monsters inside this?”

    “Yes! And I understand that this is used by timing… … .”

    “I see. But where is the person named Dok Go-jun you mentioned?”

    People looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.

    “… … So.”

    “Where did it go?”

    “… … ?”

    There was no Dok Go-jun.

    There are now 12 days left and Dok Go-Jun is not there.

    They said it was too late for timing.

    “… So what happens then?”

    Pyo Chan-seok asks, slightly embarrassed.

    “That… . I’m not sure.”

    “Originally, through taming, tens of thousands of monsters that listen to Dokgojun’s words are created… … .”

    “If timing is not achieved, then… … .”

    People’s thoughts stopped for a moment.

    Everyone came to the same conclusion.

    Pyo Chan-seok finally gave an answer.

    “… … There must be tens of thousands of monsters here. That too as an enemy.”

    “… … … .”

    “… Fuck you.”

    “What is it? So what happens?”

    The answer was actually simple.

    You can destroy it while it is in a cocoon state.

    But no one was willing to come forward.

    What happens next when you break the cocoon?

    Everyone knew that tens of thousands of monsters were needed for raids.

    It was already common knowledge here that raid participants had a pattern of randomly attacking them.

    When no one could answer, someone cautiously raised their hand.

    “I… … . Everyone before that. Do you have food?”

    People looked at each other.

    There was no other way to get food than to get it from somewhere.

    It goes without saying, but there was no way there was any food left in Yeouido by this point.

    Even if some people have it, there is no way they would have enough for 12 days.

    “… … … .”

    500 people began to glance at each other.
