Chapter 644:
'Replacing the main system, huh.'
So from the current system, BattleNet, could it be changed to something like the buffet he saw earlier?
Since the server was currently stopped, he could change the main system to one of the VRs he saw earlier and it should be fine, but.
'I'd better leave it alone for now, in case changing it causes unexpected problems.'
Thinking this, Seong Jihan pressed the BattleNet option again.
Then,
[Opening detailed settings for BattleNet.]
Zing...
After saying it would open the settings, dozens of windows filled with numbers appeared in succession.
'...This is too complicated.'He’d try to understand most things by looking at them, but this was a bit much.
At times like this, should he get help from the Red Administrator?
As Seong Jihan was thinking this,
Flash...
The light in his right eye, where observation was manifested, intensified.
The numbers that had been floating everywhere disappeared, and letters appeared instead.
However,
'It's just changed from numbers to letters, but I still don't understand what it's saying.'
Even though these new human letters now read like Korean to Seong Jihan, that didn't mean he understood it all.
Seong Jihan was wandering through this flood of information when he came up with a way to organize it.
"Show only the items the Overseer can modify."
As soon as he said that,
Swish...
Letters disappearing in an instant.
After this sorting process, only two lines remained.
[Server 4212 Rollback Count - 2 times]
[Server Detailed Inspection Threshold - 5 Server Rollbacks]
'So if the server is rolled back 5 times, it gets a detailed inspection.'
He was not sure exactly what a detailed inspection meant, but somehow, he didn’t think anything good would happen to the server if it was triggered.
Seong Jihan modified the server rollback count to 0, but left the threshold alone.
After all, he could just delete the rollback count himself every time he came here.
'Well... There's nothing more I can do here.'
Of course, there was an enormous amount of information related to BattleNet, but there was no point in looking at it if he couldn't understand it, and even if he took the time to understand it, it would be useless if he couldn't modify it.
Seong Jihan decided to leave it at that for BattleNet and closed the VR menu.
'But it doesn't seem like the Overseer authority would end with just this.'
The authority of the Ark Overseer, it seemed like there should be more uses for it.
Seong Jihan looked at the server access device flashing in resonance with his right eye and spoke.
"What else can I do with the Overseer's authority?"
[From here, you can monitor inside the Ark facility.]
"Oh? Let's take a look around then."
Zing...
As soon as Seong Jihan finished speaking, a screen began to appear inside the access device.
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
The first thing to appear was a structural diagram of the Ark.
Seong Jihan examined the map closely.
'Hmm... There are passages to the central area in the south and north.'
The central part of the Ark where Urd was located.
To reach there, he had to choose one of two directions.
Tap. Tap.
When Seong Jihan tapped on the floating map,
The screen changed to show the current situation at the location he touched.
'The southern passage near here is full of golden clocks.'
The golden clocks that would wake Urd if destroyed.
Of course, he could deflect them with Id's shield, but the southern passage was filled with an excessive amount of golden clocks.
This didn't look easy to break through with just the power of protection.
'There aren't many light clocks in the northern passage. No golden ones at all.'
In contrast, the northern passage definitely gave a less crowded feeling.
All the light clocks Urd had placed were white ones that Seong Jihan could burn without worry.
Instead,
'The problem is the Infinite Sword stuck at the starting point...'
There was one hurdle to overcome to enter the northern passage.
That was the Infinite Sword.
On top of a large rock, only the handle of the sword floating,
The Infinite Sword was standing guard.
'Hmm... I'm torn between choosing the south or north.'
For the north, he could summon Dongbang Sak to stop the Infinite Sword like last time and quickly enter.
For the south, he could move slowly using Id's authority, or not use the protection authority at all and break through at full power, accepting that Urd might wake up.
Seong Jihan was considering which method to use when,
'Right. What is Urd doing now?'
He decided to check the central area with his Overseer authority.
He returned to the structural diagram and touched the central part of the Ark.
Zing...
On the newly appeared screen, only pure white light could be seen.
The numerous structures in the central area and Urd herself seemed to be completely submerged in that light.
Not even a trace could be seen of the central area.
'Is that the light of the transcendent being?'
How strong must the light be to make observation impossible?
Seong Jihan frowned and kept tapping around to see if anything was visible.
But no matter where he touched in the central area, only light could be seen and proper observation was only possible after passing this area and entering the passages.
'Hmm. I guess the central area with the transcendent being just can't be observed right now.'
Seong Jihan tried a few more times before giving up.
'I should talk this over with my helpers.'
He decided to discuss this matter with Dongbang Sak and Id, who were currently helping him in the Ark.
"I'm going out."
At Seong Jihan's words, the server access device slowly opened.
He climbed out and approached Id's server access device.
Knock. Knock.
After knocking several times, he waited a moment.
Creeeeak...
As Id's server access device opened,
"...Ugh. You're back already?"
A skinny man slowly emerged from inside.
* * *
'No, this guy is even skinnier than before.'
Id, who was already emaciated from hunger when first seen.
He had jumped into the server access device saying he could finally eat, but somehow, he looked even more gaunt than before.
"Don't tell me you didn't go to the buffet?"
"Huh? How did you..."
"I was checking if the Infinite Sword was around and saw some VR options."
"...Don't tell me it showed what I was doing?"
"Yeah. It asked if I wanted to join multiplayer."
At those words, Id touched his head and gave an embarrassed smile.
"Ahem. I was just trying to relax a bit... I lost track of time."
"Well, I don't care what you do. But can you use your authority with that body?"
"The authority... I can use it, but it would be better if I ate something. But why are you back so soon? My avatar should have behaved well."
"Something happened over there."
Seong Jihan then briefly explained what had happened on the server.
"Urd used her authority like that...?"
"Yeah. When I looked at the server access device, she was trying to commit suicide right away, so I had no choice but to come back quickly."
"That troublesome woman... But then, shouldn't you stay in the server access device longer? What if that sword comes flying again?"
"I've located the sword's position. It's stuck in its place."
"...When did you do that?"
Tap. Tap.
As Seong Jihan pointed to his right eye at those words, Id asked incredulously.
"That... Don't tell me it's the power of observation?"
"Yeah. I moved it to my right eye."
"Huh... Crazy. You even moved it? What kind of person are you? Moving the manifestation site of an authority is not easy even for 'normal people'."
"It just happened."
"...If our humanity had survived, you would have become a high-ranking government official."
A high-ranking government official.
Hearing those words, Seong Jihan thought of the President.
They had definitely said his trait 'Nullification' was quite similar to Stat Blue.
"Do you know about the President?"
"The President...? Who wouldn't know about him- Ah, right... You're a server entity. Why are you asking about him?"
"One of my authorities is said to be related to him."
"What...?! What kind of authority could be related to him?"
"Answer my question first."
"...Alright. Hah. Where should I start..."
At those words, Id fell into thought for a moment,
Then slowly began to speak.
"The President is the one who created humanity's light body system."
"Light body...?"
"Yes. Thanks to the President creating the light body system, humanity was finally able to achieve eternal life."
The President who elevated humanity to the next level by creating the light body system.
He went further and fused himself with the system, they said.
"The President could have ruled over people eternally, but for the stability of the light body system, he fused his own body with it. So humanity honored the President by leaving that position vacant. Saying there is only one President, 'Mitra'."
"The President's name is Mitra?"
"Yes, but... Speaking the President's name so casually is a bit..."
"I got it. I'll be careful."
Id seemed to have respect for the President, showing discomfort at Seong Jihan's words.
Seong Jihan raised his hands saying he understood, and thought about Mitra.
'Mitra. I'm sure that's what they called the ancient god of light...'
His parents probably wouldn't have named him like that.
Did he just call himself Mitra on his own?
"Was the name Mitra popular in the old days?"
"...No. The President originally had a different name. It was probably Jackson."
Jackson.
That was a more familiar name.
Anyway, if he had a different original name but newly called himself Mitra,
'He exalted himself. Talk about an inflated ego.'
Of course, as the creator of the light body system, it was understandable.
Seong Jihan smirked thinking about the President who changed his name from Jackson to Mitra.
Why change it, just keep the old name.
"But... What exactly is your ability that's similar to the President's? No, how do you even know about the similarity when you don't know about the President?"
"This eye told me."
"Hmm. The authority of observation...? Then it's probably not completely false information. Could you possibly be an entity that can create systems too?"
"No. It's not related to that at all. This authority is closer to destruction."
It didn't feel right to explain the name 'Nullification fully'.
When Seong Jihan vaguely expressed that his authority was related to destruction,
"Destruction... Well, I suppose the President would have such abilities too."
"Really?"
"Yes. According to the President's biography, he completely wiped out the opposition forces against the light body system. He must have had means of force as well."
Id nodded, understanding Seong Jihan's ability as simply using force.
He didn't seem to consider 'Nullification' at all.
'Hmm. In any case, the President was practically a god who created humanity's new era.'
He was even more impressive than Seong Jigan thought.
But,
'Why would the authority of someone who built a system be nullification?'
Of course, unlike the Isolators who could only have one authority, he could possess multiple authorities.
Even Seong Jihan had several now.
Someone of the President's level might have dozens or hundreds of authorities.
However,
'The fact that nullification was specifically mentioned as the President's authority bothers me somehow...'
The President and the system.
And nullification too.
Seong Jihan's gaze darkened as he pondered the keywords he had heard from Id.
'I'll need always to keep that in mind.'
