Whew hey...

A cold wind blows away the snow covered in snow.

"Hmm, I don't see anyone here either."

I am an abandoned village in the North Continent

was following me

Originally, NPCs in the north often abandoned villages when the climate became too harsh, and abandoned villages themselves are common.

However, the village where I am now was not an abandoned space where NPCs migrated.

It can be seen by the ropes and nooses now hanging from the hut rafters.

A skeleton caught in a noose is visible beneath the broken rope, frayed by the cold wind.

Judging by the small size and the thin strands of hair attached to the skull, it was clearly a child's.

Yoonsol muttered in a subdued voice.

" Even a child like this."

"You're really doing too much."

Drake answered with an angry expression.

Rope swaying in the wind wherever you can see it.

And beneath them are frozen skeletons.

But I just glance around with an unfeeling gaze.

"There is no sign of resistance. They all committed suicide."

We've been tracking the NPCs missing in the north for a few days.

Drake muttered as he breathed into his frozen hands.

"If anything happens, it's all from the north."

"It's isolated because of the topography and weather, so it's the least rumored. The area is also closed."

Yunsol nodded and answered.

As we investigated, NPC disappearances and suicides have not been observed much yet, but they are clearly occurring over time.

'Well, that's why the Dem Universe is also keeping a close eye on the Zodiac. Rain, which has not fallen in the past, is going down to Sangsangyeong.'

It's the Dam Universe that hasn't been very involved in the big and small troubles the Zodiac has caused.

But this time something was different.

Wilson was obviously wary and afraid of any series of consequences that the Zodiac would cause.

" Well, nothing to worry about. This time, I will interfere."

I muttered as I recalled the documents that Sena Nam had handed me.

Meanwhile. Sol Yun and Drake were organizing the clues they had gathered so far.

There is one thing in common between the behaviors of the NPCs with the abnormality.

1. I read the red book.

2. He immediately harmed himself.

3. If you prevent self-harm around you, you will go to a place with few people.

4. Rarely, he forced the people around him to read the red book.

5. The people around you who read the red book repeat the action from step 1.

" hmmm. Are you really going to die if you read this book?"

As I peered into the cover of this red book that occupies a space in my inventory, I felt a bit uncomfortable.

If you read it, you will die.

The aftermath is too serious to be dismissed as a simple urban ghost story.

It is true that NPCs disappear.

That's a big problem.

This is because they play a huge role in the maintenance and development of local communities.

It is even more serious in that it leaves a hole in the huge worldview formed by the gathering of numerous histories.

The disappearance of the circumstances, histories, and lives of countless individuals and the disappearance of NPCs is the same as the disappearance of the small roots that are the basis of this myth.

All.

I wiped my chin once.

It's worse than the tainted blood incident.

The original NPCs usually do not die, but even if they die due to unfair external intervention, other NPCs are created to replace them, so it does not cause a big problem in the gameplay itself.

In the case of monsters, data is deleted immediately upon death to prevent the size of the dummy file from growing, but in the case of NPCs, the data and AI are moved to a subspace designated separately on the server, and similar AI is created or reloaded and loaded later. .

However

"It happens without any distinction between M.A and S.A

In most virtual reality games, important NPCs are called 'Essential NPC' or *M.A (Main actor) so that they do not die.

SA (Support Actor) has a unique vitality like a monster and can be destroyed or replaced, but MA (Main Actor), who is quite deeply involved in the worldview, is an artificial intelligence that imposes a unique essential code to make it indestructible. will be.

However, the strange phenomenon that is taking place now is happening regardless of the type of NPC.

If the NPC abandons his or her job, leaves the place of work and disappears, no other person is created to take its place.

Whether it's M.A or S.A!

" That obviously means that the data of these NPCs lives somewhere."

But now what I see in front of my eyes is a clear skeleton.

It clearly proves the death and extinction of beings who were once NPCs.

They destroyed themselves for some reason and never returned.

Of course, there was no substitute for it.

It is not to my knowledge that this anomaly is produced on a large scale.

with only one

'bug.'

I chewed my lips and started tracking this phenomenon.

It is good to ruin the work of the Zodiac, but I am curious about the situation itself.

right then

A familiar laughter began to be heard from somewhere.

hee hee type J hee hee.

"Ah, that monster again?"

"It's pretty common for a field boss."

Drake and I's expressions wrinkle at the same time.

Only Sol Yun, who has never experienced this hee-hee-hee, has his eyes wide open.

After a while, hee hee hee appeared from the entrance of the village.

Crawling Tagger 'Ihihi' One-class: A / Attributes: Ice, Darkness, Undead, Tagger

- Habitat: harsh snowy mountains

- Size: 2m

- A woman who was driven as a witch in the village was thrown alive into an ice pit.

A car that is constantly being poured over your head

Bathed in the robe, she lost consciousness.

No matter how you look at it, you can't get used to that horrible appearance.

Yoon Sol, who is weak in fear, raised the guard with a frightened expression, and Drake also raised a crossbow to take a vigilant posture.

Then, suddenly, I remembered the 'red book' in my inventory.

' Is this going to work for monsters too?'

It was pure curiosity.

I held this odd item in my hand and spread it out.

As the cover of the red book turned over, the pages inside began to flip over to the one in front of him.

OK. Soon something amazing happened.

[Kyaaaaaaaah!?]

Ihihihi looked at the pages of the book and screamed with tears in his eyes and mouth, even with his trademark smile removed from his mouth.

Then he turned to the same position he had been crawling in and started running on all fours.

There was a steep crevasses with their mouths wide open.

Flutter!

Ihihihi threw himself off the cliff in the same running posture.

It is obvious what happened to Rei-hi-hi, as it was an enormous height that even a field boss could not survive.

death. It was a very clear result.

....

Me, Yunsol, and Drake were speechless and stood blankly, staring at the scene.

In particular, when I opened the book and held it upside down, I couldn't say anything.

" Does it work for monsters too?"

The power of 'a book that dies when you read it'

It was far beyond what I expected.

If you look at it, you can feel the ominous feeling, it is definitely a bug item.

'Did the Zodiac create it?'

It was a reasonable doubt.

"What on earth is written inside?"

"I'm worried, so it would be better to close it for now."

Sol Yun and Drake are also reluctant to read the red book in my hand.

I chewed on the cud once again the information that Sena Nam had given me.

'I think the Zodiac is trying to ruin the game itself.'

That's right.

Not only was it not enough to hunt rankers or create a lawless zone to create murderers, he even joined hands with Kim Jong-un, who would cause major incidents such as nukes and money-copying bugs.

It will be difficult to carry out these excursions in a row unless there is a grudge against Deus Ex Machina or the Dem Universe itself.

Because he was too obsessive to dismiss it as pure malice.

'Come to think of it, when we met before, you said something strange.'

I remembered the story he told me when I met the Zodiac quite a while ago in the Gordicsa Raid.

'You? The one who caused the upheaval.

I was really surprised. Cataclysm is 'already'.'

It's what happens when a cataclysm happens. Where is it already? Are you in any game related? Or even a regression.'

'Pussy! Are you a gamer?二L might be right. Because I was a closed beta tester.'

Hmm... No response after hearing the word closed beta? what are you close

How a non-beta tester caused a cataclysm here

Did you come to catch Gordicsa?

its closed beta

What is a test?'

'Are you asking because you don't really know, or are you kidding me knowingly?

'friend. Look at Deus Ex Machina. how vast and precise

What is your worldview?'

'Do you understand that a game like this is made and appeared in a single day?'

After these conversations, Zodiac and I met once more before the Korea-Japan match in the Asian Champions League.

At that time, the zodiac was close to me

He seemed convinced that he was another tester and wanted to form an alliance with me.

'If you and I work together, we are invincible. No one will be able to touch us.'

At that time, the Zodiac was a fixed S+ level monster raid, or was preparing for a dispute with the GM.

(Coming to think of it now, the fixed S+ level monster was probably the sloth demon constellation Belpegol.)

And then and now, Sena Nam, the class leader of the processing class 2, was chasing such a zodiac like a hound.

' Zodiac We are also watching ; carefully. The enemy of an enemy is a friend, right?'

She dared to put a face stamp on me by attending a party to commemorate the wear and tear of the worn-out newbie team being selected as the Korean national team.

As it is now, Sena Nam was paying special attention to the Zodiac Bundy Veil for some reason at that time as well.

It was because of her tip that I found out that the Zodiac made a nest in the Tower of Killers.

'Certainly the Zodiac is the villain, but... Nam Sena is obviously obsessed with him more than necessary.'

it's definitely common karma

It was a level of hostility that went beyond being wary of users.

How much do you lose with the GM, so that the Dam Universe command the handling team to closely monitor it?

Perhaps the Zodiac is again dreaming a sinister and ominous dream.

Even I, who lived in the future, cannot guess.

then.

Bush Luck!

I heard a voice in the distance, from the exit side of the village.

And almost at the same time, the good-eyed Drake noticed something.

A hawker, dressed in thick fur, was walking cautiously toward the village exit.

Since there is no NPC mark on the head, it is highly probable that it is a player.

Normally, I would have just turned off my attention... The hawker had one characteristic that could not be overlooked.

red book!

It looks like it was picked up from the abandoned house it just came out of!

The hawker looks around, puts the red book in his inventory, and climbs over the fence.

Moreover, his face was spherical for me, Yoon Sol, and Drake.

Jack Meridue.

A murderer who had been reduced to a sacrifice by Belzebub, the king of Paris, was here.
