Chapter 229: Two Families in One House (2)

He sneakily glanced at the audience and spoke more pa.s.sionately, as if he had more to say.

“And what about war? Isn"t that also a disaster, albeit an artificial one There are countless wars in which tens of thousands of people were killed, so if we don"t have many casualties in a single battle, we don"t even call it a war. What about the appearance of monsters? I don"t think it"s different from other disasters. So, let"s reveal it to the whole world because we can"t hide it anyway. I just think that we should try to change people"s perceptions. In other words, we have to make them think that the appearance of monsters is something like a natural disaster, which we have seen so many times, so they will not be surprised.”

“But I wonder if we can change their perceptions…”

“Even if we change their perceptions, they will still be very confused.”

“Well, they have already seen such disasters through all kinds of videos and books for a long time, but this is totally a new disaster that they have never experienced before. Can they accept it so easily?”

There were a lot of partic.i.p.ants who nodded and agreed with the American representative"s argument. However, there were also those who raised questions.

Watching those questioning his argument, the American representative opened his mouth with a triumphant smile.

“Will they be confused? Of course, they will be very confused, but they will calm down over time just like they have done in the past. Don"t you know humans are animals of adaptation? They are like frogs in boiling water.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

This time, no one raised a question like before.

So, with the American representative taking the initiative, the partic.i.p.ants debated deeply how to announce to the people around the world that the appearance of the monster was just a natural disaster. And their conclusion was that those who could adjust to such a disaster would survive, just like the American representative argued.

At the end of the NW meeting, somebody raised their hand and asked, “Can I say one thing?”

When the two-hour-long meeting was almost over, Indian Prime Minister Jacri Rajan grabbed the microphone and opened his mouth. And no one stopped him because India was also a founding member of the NW.

“Hmm. Hmm. As all of you know, when you kill monsters in reality, you receive some golden rings and a very small amount of coins, but you don"t get items or EXP.”

All the partic.i.p.ants already knew about this, so they looked at him confused, wondering why he brought it up

As if he also noticed their suspicious glance, the Indian prime minister continued casually.

“In other words, in order to level up and receive items, you have to stay connected to the ‘Revival Legend" and keep playing. You have to be strong there first so you can do something in reality. However, as you know, the walls blocking the countries have collapsed, so there were some instances where one country invaded another without their consent and plundered them. Of course, I won"t single out any specific country here.”

The Indian prime minister gave a general description of the current situation.

But everyone gathered here knew which country he was referring to.

It was none other than China because it was the Indian walls bordering Vietnam and China that collapsed.

Besides, while China was forcibly taking away what used to be a district of Vietnam, it came into conflict with India.

Because of the Indian prime minister"s critical remarks, the Chinese representative frowned a little, but n.o.body intervened because it was more interesting to be an onlooker during a fight.

Even though the atmosphere was heavy because of his remarks, the Indian Prime Minister Rajan continued to speak.

“In the end, ‘Revival Legend" has become a place for all of us which means more than mere survival. Then, how can you take it away as you please? If somebody does it, it must be the same as a declaration of war. Even if a nuclear war broke out in reality because of that, it would not be so strange at all.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

There was a moment of silence among the partic.i.p.ants.

Then the Indian Prime Minister Rajan made a bombsh.e.l.l announcement.

“What can"t you do when your future is stolen by somebody else? Don"t you all think so?”

About 30 seconds later somebody broke the silence by shouting suddenly as if he realized that the Indian Prime Minister"s threats were not a mere joke.

“The place where all of this initially started is in Vietnam! In the end, all the skirmishes happened because India suddenly sided with Vietnam, RIght? Did you find fault with China because you felt jealous that China made the first move? Moreover, this is definitely happening within ‘Revival Legend". It doesn"t make sense for you to bring this up in reality.”

Of course, there was no Vietnamese representative among the NW members.

Even if a Vietnamese representative was invited, he would not dare speak out like this.

So, it was the Chinese representative who refuted the Indian prime minister.

In any case, there were some who frowned at the Chinese representative"s argument, but some of them agreed with him by nodding slightly. Actually, their countries did the same thing as China.

However, they didn"t think and act aggressively and with all-or-nothing thinking like China, so there were no big disturbances among the other NW member countries yet.

“What? Isn"t something happening in reality right now? And yet you are saying it is just limited to ‘Revival Legend" It"s the most absurd thing I have heard in my life.”

When the Chinese representative finished talking, Prime Minister Rajan replied with scorn.

Even after that, not only India and China but also other countries continued to argue with each other for a long time.

As a matter of fact, some of the partic.i.p.ants believed that they would face the same fate of Vietnam when their walls with strong countries collapsed in the future.

On the other hand, some countries made the case of the survival of the fittest.

Anyway, the partic.i.p.ants in the 3rd regular meeting of the NW were only concerned with protecting and expanding their own interests instead of discussing how to come up with a worldwide measure to guarantee humanity"s survival.

At the Cunning Vampire Garrison.

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

I kept hunting nervously this time unlike before when I vehemently vented my anger on the vampires. I was so nervous because it would not be strange at all if the message announcing that I was recognized as a predator by the cunning vampires rang at any moment.

In the past, a message rang around this time.

And my prediction was not wrong.

[The Cunning Vampires have recognized Lumen, Asirante, as a predator.

-The Cunning Vampires will not preemptively attack Lumen and Asirante.]

[Over time, your predator status will gradually diminish and you will no longer be recognized by the Cunning Vampires as a predator.

-When you hunt other monsters, your predator status will diminish quicker.]

Shuuuuuuuuung. Shuuuuuuuuuung.

The vampires tenaciously charged at me using teleport only a little while ago.

But they all teleported away instantly as if they never came into contact with me.

“Whew…”

I let out a long sigh, watching them disappearing like that.


Then I immediately tried to message somebody.

[Lumen: Are you there right now? ]

Although I sometimes messaged her, it was the first time I contacted her first.

Perhaps that"s why I could notice her surprise when she replied to me.
