人妻被邻居睡中文字幕

Chapter 310

‘We should be arriving at our destination soon . ’

They were in a dark cave . A large and ominous door was letting its presence known . However, Hyunwoo looked bored as he sat on top of a boulder .

Only his eyes revealed the deep curiosity that he felt .

“Did something good happen?”

“No way . ”

Jinsoo had approached him . Hyunwoo waved his hand in the negative .

“I’m just an old man sitting in a dark space . What is there to enjoy about this situation? ”

“Then you should have gone down to earth . A lot of fun stuff should be happening down there . ”

They had become a complete turncoat against earth . This was why they sometimes accompanied the monsters down to earth . They caused all kinds of mayhem .

“You are pretty amazing . You know they hate it when you accompany them . ”

“Who cares what they think?”

Jinsoo shrugged his shoulders .

“They gained so much because he cooperated with them . The fact that they are complaining about how hard it is to retrieve us from earth is out of line . We did enough for them . They should treat us better . ”

The monsters were treated like consumable commodities . They didn’t need to be retrieved unlike the Connectors . They had to open additional portals to retrieve the Connectors .

This was why Ursus, who was leading the monster army, asked the Connectors to avoid going down to earth .

Most of them followed Ursus’ request, but there were those like Jinsoo, who ignored it .

“It really is great down there . I can do anything there . I can kill and destroy everything to my heart’s content . I can carry out any criminal activities . It is heaven for me . ”

The screams and pain felt by the victims filled his desire for conquest and destruction .

Currently, Jinsoo was living in the golden age .

“I know for sure that you really want something else . Am I right?”

Hyunwoo laughed as he spoke . He spoke as if he knew everything . Jinsoo stopped moving in an exaggerated manner . He came to a complete stop .

However, it lasted only for a moment . A smile appeared on his lips .

His smile was very cruel . It was frightening .

“Well, you are right . ”

Jinsoo didn’t deny it at all .

“It is too funny . Those that put on airs as they yelled at me ran away like dogs!”

He looked at his hands .

His hands had been dyed with blood until not too long ago .

The Connectors were an amazing and confident group of people . He hadn’t been able to become one of them, yet they all died futilely against him .

“I don’t want to say this since this is your hobby . However, you shouldn’t overdo it . If you act out enough to become a detriment to the plan, you become nothing to them . ”

“Yes, yes . ”

Jinsoo raised both hands . He didn’t sound sincere as he gave his answer .

“Doesn’t that apply to you too, Mr . Hyunwoo?”

“What are you talking about?”

“You went on a ‘walk’ a couple of days ago . You weren’t accompanied by anyone . ”

“Ah . You noticed that?”

Hyunwoo was calm . He spoke as if it was nothing .

“It seemed the act of betraying my country and earth had some effect on me . That is why I went out for a stroll . I wanted to calm my heart, so I went to a place that held sentimental value . ”

“Wow . I thought you were incapable of bleeding or crying . I can’t believe you felt those emotions . ”

“I thought I was immune to those emotions, but as I get older, I grow sentimental . This is why one should die when one gets old . ”

Hyunwoo and Jinsoo looked at each other . Both men were smiling, but for some reason, it felt as if murderous intent was flowing out of them .

“Ha-haht! I guess it can’t be helped since your age made you feel that way . I am getting older too, so I can relate . ”

“Mmm! I really like the respect you are showing towards an old man like me . Young kids these days are lacking in that department . ”

“I’ll be heading out now . ”

Jinsoo acted like a respectful young man . He left after bowing 90 degrees towards Hyunwoo . Hyunwoo waved his hand, and he laughed like a benevolent grandfather .

When Jinsoo disappeared, his benevolent laughter changed into a jeer .

‘He caught wind of it . ’

It wasn’t surprising . Kim Jinsoo was a man, who always observed Hyunwoo for an opening .

In his eyes, all Connectors were his enemy including Hyunwoo .

However, he didn’t care about that .

‘If Woo Sungyoon develops as planned . . . ’

An existence like Kim Jinsoo wouldn’t even be worthy of Woo Sungyoon’s eyes at that point .

***

There was no door at the entrance to the tower . There was an arch-shaped hole at the bottom of the tower .

“Thankfully, there is no door . ”

Bruce entered through the hole .

“He’s so shameless . He still can’t let go of the fact that he couldn’t open the door yesterday . ”

Russell clicked his tongue as he followed behind Bruce into the tower .

Sungyoon’s party let out a bitter laughter as they entered the tower too .

The center of the tower was open until the top, but one couldn’t see the ceiling . There was a helical staircase built against the walls . They could see doors to rooms along the staircase .

“We have to climb it, right?”

“Of course . ”

Bruce and Russell bent back their neck as they looked upwards .

Bruce was the first one to step onto the staircase .

He lightly stomped one feet on the staircase .

He put more strength into the stomp, but the staircase remained intact .

He placed his other foot atop the staircase . With his full weight on the staircase, he jumped a couple times in place .

“I don’t think it’ll suddenly collapse on our way up . ”

The Connectors continued to climb up the staircase .

“This is quite dangerous without a railing . ”

Emily stuck close to the wall . Bruce, who was leading from the front, grabbed the handle to a door . It was the first room that he had reached .

The wooden door had somehow lasted over the test of time, but it was obvious that the door was rotten . It was barely hanging on .

“It is another door . ”

He glared at Russell, who teased Bruce from his side . He slowly opened the door .

“There’s nothing in here . ”

“This place feels like a deserted house . ”

Russell turned around to look at Sungyoon .

“Do you feel anything?”

“No . I don’t feel anything special within the room . How about you, Sir Russell? Do you feel anything out of the ordinary?”

“No . I equipped it, but I don’t think it will react to me . ”

Russell raised his arm . His armor hit it, but he had a Device equipped on his arm . The Mage Gem was slotted in the Device .

“Let’s continue to go up . ”

Bruce pointed towards the stairs .

They arrived at each room as they climbed the staircase . They opened each door as they advanced, but they didn’t see anything eye-catching within the rooms . The only thing they found was broken down furniture .

Everyone wanted to just ignore the rooms to reach the top, but there was a chance that there was something out of the ordinary within one of the rooms . This was why they opened every one of them .

“In the end, it was all for nothing . ”

Russell stood at a platform at the very top . He let out a sigh as he looked at the last door .

In the end, it had been a massive waste of time . None of the rooms held anything interesting .

Russell slowly opened the last door . The helical staircase had come to an end, and a door was present at the top of the tower .

“There’s no way we find nothing in there, right?”

“Don’t jinx us!”

Russell kicked backward towards Bruce, then he fully opened the door .

He was greeted by a large space . Unlike the rooms that were present along the staircase, this place used the entire area up top . There were no inner walls that segregated rooms . It also didn’t possess outer walls . One could look out into the city . There were only a couple of pillars that held the ceiling up .

‘This place is more like a terrace than a room . ’

It was a great place to look out for a great view . However, they didn’t see much since the city was encased by sturdy walls .

Sungyoon looked up . He recalled seeing the top of the tower embedded into the ceiling .

‘Do the top of the tower share the same ceiling as this space?’

“Mr . Sungyoon! Over there!”

Emily tapped at Sungyoon’s arm .

She was pointing towards a certain direction .

He saw a familiar set of machines . It was a machine that existed in Sungyoon’s capital and Plu-El’s holy city . It was the device that projected the hologram .

Russell and Bruce caught sight of the device too, so they approached it .

“Hey . You should activate it . You have the Mage Gem, right?”

Russell was put in an awkward spot when Bruce spoke up .

“I still haven’t awakened it, so what can I do?”

Even as he said those words, Russell started touching the machine .

He tried pressing the Mage Gem against the device, and he also tried sending his magical energy through the Gem . However, the machine didn’t do anything .

“Mmm . Knight? Mr . Aruwen and Ms . Plu-El? Do you mind helping me out?”

Russell called out to the three, who possessed the special Gems .

“We won’t be of any help . The machine will not activate without the Mage Gem . ”

Plu-El crushed Russell’s hopeful thoughts .

“Can’t the Knight use the Royal Gem to activate it?”

“The Royal Gem isn’t some universal item . ”

In the end, Russell backed away from the machine .

The Connectors ignored the machine once they realized they couldn’t activate it . They started searching their surroundings, but the only thing out of the ordinary was the machine .

“...there is nothing here . ”

Bruce sounded annoyed as he mumbled his words .

He even checked the pillars and the outer walls of the tower . He checked if there were any symbols engraved into them, but he found nothing .

“Didn’t Sung Hyunwoo say there was something here that could stop the Grenoid?”

“He said there is a way to stop the monsters from invading earth here . ”

“Shit! Does this mean he duped us?’

“There is no guarantee that he was referring to this place . ”

Russell placated Bruce, but his voice sounded drained of energy too .

“In the first place, he sad it exists with the ‘Great Labyrinth . ’ He gave no other hints . . ”

Russell added at the end .

“However, there is no guarantee that he didn’t lie to us . ”

“Shit!”

Bruce stamped his foot once .

***

Afterward, the Connectors searched the tower one more time . They wanted to make sure that they hadn’t missed anything .

However, they couldn’t find anything, and the Mage Gem was showing no signs of waking up .

In the end, the Connectors expanded their search radius to the city .

“Did you find anything?”

Sungyoon was looking at the wall surrounding the city . Emily walked up behind him as she asked the question . Sungyoon shook his head from side to side .

“It is just a wall . There is nothing extraordinary about it . Did you find something, Ms . Emily?”

“No . ”

Emily glanced at Sungyoon .

“Are you blaming yourself for this?”

“What?”

“You look down . ”

The mayor had mobilized the Connectors to this place, because he had heard Hyunwoo’s story through Sungyoon .

This was why Emily was a bit worried about Sungyoon feeling some form of responsibility for this failure .

However, Sungyoon shook his head from side to side .

“Not at all . At the end of the day, I only delivered the message . I’m not the one that decided to go ahead with this plan . It wasn’t my call to make this decision, so I don’t feel the need to feel guilty about it . I’m not that kind of a person . I feel disappointed, but it has to do with the fact that earth continues to suffer from the attacks . I’m worried we won’t gain anything from this venture when we sacrificed so much . ”

“I see . ”

“Let’s head back to the tower once more . ”

At Sungyoon’s insistence, the party returned to the tower .

The tower had been thoroughly investigated, so no one was at the tower .

His other party members continued to climb the staircase as they checked the rooms once again .

However, Sungyoon didn’t follow them upwards . He decided to focus on searching the 1st floor .

‘As expected, there is nothing here . ’

Sungyoon felt despondent, but he didn’t give up on his search . This time he searched where the staircase started .

He was checking the space between the1st floor and the staircase when it happened .

Ssssk!

He felt the Royal Gem twitch .

Doo-doo-doohk!

It was as if a secret door was opening . A part of the floor sunk into the ground .

Then a staircase leading to the basement was revealed .
