World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 140 Act. 3

A meeting that is urgently convened several times a day with the fact that a new main scenario has begun. However, the majority of the issues decided through the meeting were sluggish or not very important than expected.

“If you’re going to do this, why the hell are you calling an emergency meeting? All information is security grade? In a situation like this, there is nothing we can do no matter how much we prepare and respond.”

“I mean..... From what I hear from the Crisis Management Response Team... Executive Director Kwon Myung-han said he didn't know the details of the scenario. It’s not just how the scenario started, but everything about the specific content of the scenario and its future direction and development.”

“what? really?”

A main scenario with a powerful influence that shakes the entire continent of Arcadia. Of course, information about players playing or information about things that can cause serious problems to the scenario is limited, but it was not common for all information to be kept private in this way, so the team leaders and department heads of each department participating in the meeting were not shaken. I had no choice but to.

“Haa... How powerful is the content, so why are you keeping it such a thorough secret? Is that why executive director Kwon Myung-han keeps going back and forth to the president’s room?”

“I don’t know... Judging from the general atmosphere, it seemed that President Lee Mi-yeon was still struggling with whether or not he couldn’t make an important decision, but... I don’t know.”

“Eh. Whatever it is, I just want you to call this fucking emergency meeting. Because of this, they are piled up without being able to do the work they need to do properly.”

“that's right. I'd rather get off work on time than that. If I do this now, he will forget my face.”

Rotten Dongtaenun employees sipping coffee with a deep sigh. President Lee Mi-yeon, whether aware of their struggles or not, was in the middle of a video conference with someone with a serious face sitting in her office.

“A user currently playing on the Arcadia 2 continent has met all the requirements for moving to another continent. A related scenario has already been created, and Ellis judged that the scenario had started and assigned a related quest to the user. I know you're in the middle of that quest right now.”

CEO Lee Mi-yeon reports everything that has happened so far to someone as a reporter. Although she was the CEO and chief operator of Arcadia Co., Ltd., she had no choice but to be careful with true company owners participating in video conferences.

The owners of the three companies that hold 99.9% of Arcadia's shares.

Mikhail, the CEO of Corporation Argos.

Jenika, the head of Silicoff Bio Industries.

Lee Jun-hee, the chairman of Ajin Group.

And.....

Jack, the creator of Arcadia and the actual chief operator who supports this huge virtual world.

Those who heard President Lee Mi-yeon's report made different expressions.

Jack, whose eyes shine as if he is having fun, and Mikhail and Chairman Lee Jun-hee, who make expressions full of confusion and surprise. Lastly, even Jenika, who distorts her face with anger and annoyance. It was clear enough to know just by looking at their reactions that each of them had a different perspective and thoughts on this situation.

[No, how long have you been going to another continent? Did we set the related scenario difficulty so easily on the 2nd continent?]

The world of Arcadia is so huge that you can't dare measure its scale.

The eight continents that existed within it were blocked by vast oceans that could never be crossed by ordinary attempts.

[No way. How much effort did Alice and I put into conceiving the scenario? According to Alice's analysis at that time... Alice, what was the result of the continental difficulty evaluation at that time?]

[The difficulty evaluation result of the two continents continental movement scenario S-. It ranks first among 8 continents.]

Alice is a flawless artificial intelligence that contemplates and analyzes everything. As a result of her evaluation, the scenario designed with the highest difficulty than any other continent. That's why, in response to Jennica's question, Jack asserted that it was absolutely not.

[The minimum scenario of continental drift will appear after 5 to 6 years. In the case of the two continents that Korea is playing, I took it at about 8 years later.]

Jack and Alice confirmed that there was no problem at all in terms of planning. At the words of these two, Jenika asked with a frown as if she couldn't understand the current situation even more.

[No, then what is this now? How long has it been since you started the service in Korea? It's just 8 months old. No matter how much you have that damn job, you're touching a scenario that was expected to happen 8 years later like this?]

Jennica is indignant as she roughly rummages through the papers in her hand on the screen. Mikhail, who was watching her quietly, looked at President Lee Mi-yeon and asked cautiously.

[First of all.... To summarize the contents here, is it a situation where a user playing in Korea might move to a continent where users from other countries are currently playing?] “Yes

. that's right. The exact date has not been confirmed, but Ellis believes that the related scenario will begin within a month at least.”

[I see..... But don't you think it's too early? I know that the real-time interpretation and translation system has not yet been perfectly applied to cross continents.]

Convenience function that translates the language of all countries in real time so that there is no inconvenience in interacting with players from other countries. It was necessary in the distant future when traffic between continents became free, but it was a function that was not yet applied because there was no problem even if it was not there right now.

“So, for that part, we are currently urgently completing the final inspection to apply the related system. It's a system that only a very small number of people will need yet, so Alice's current computing power can handle it. However, I think the expansion of computing facilities should be done as quickly as possible.”

[Don't worry about that part. We will prioritize the production and supply of related equipment.]

[Ha... Ah! I don't know! it's annoying! If you want to reduce your work, why do you have more work!]

Chairman Lee Jun-hee and Jenica show different reactions to President Lee Mi-yeon's words. She looked at the report in her hand one by one, narrowing her eyes, as if she was resentful of the increased work she had to do, no matter what.

[Wait, thinking about this..... Isn't it a situation where we are leaving for the ‘endless sea' in search of a new continent that has not yet been discovered?]

Jennica's eyes shine as if she has a good idea. She gave the order to Ellis without anyone even bothering to say anything.

[Ordered as the 1st level administrator of Alice. Increase the frequency of attacks by the deep sea monsters in the Arcadia Sea by 100% and the difficulty level by 1000%.]

Even if the scenario cannot be stopped, Zenika tries to stop it by adjusting the difficulty to an impossible level. Exercising absolute command rights as a first-class manager and confidently giving orders, she opened her mouth at Alice's reply.

[Check level 1 administrator privileges. Difficulty adjustment of Arcadia Sea... cannot be applied.]

[What...? what? Why!]

The authority of a first-class manager that even President Lee Mi-yeon does not have. In fact, as the only being who could control Elise, she looked shocked at Elise's decision to reject her order for the first time. However, Ellis explained the reason in a dry tone.

[This order is an unfair balance adjustment targeting a specific user.]

[The target user has obtained the absolute right to defend by amicably accepting the agreement on the problem caused by the company's fault.] Zenika,

1st level administrator A user who said that he had acquired an absolute right to defense that he could not do anything about. She shouted in bewilderment at Alice's explanation, which she had never heard of.

[What the hell does that mean? Absolute right to defense?]

[The data was sent by e-mail. Please check it.]

At that, Jenika seems to be hurriedly rummaging through her computer. And soon, her shrill voice began to echo through the speakers.

[What is this? bamboo spear? crazy! What the hell were you doing at the Korean branch?]

Arcadia's clumsy event planning caused a catastrophe. Looking at the records of that time, Jenika went mad for a long time after that. Angry at the birth of a user with absolute defense rights that he could not do anything about even with his own authority, and the fact that that user was disturbing Arcadia by committing all sorts of hoaxes.

* * *

After the meeting was over with Zenica's all kinds of fucking.

In the virtual space, Jack hummed a pleasant song.

“Thank you, Alice. If you had followed that order instead of refusing there, I should have stood up and fought against Jenica.”

If Jack tried to stop the scenario maliciously, he would reject it. He thanked Elise for not bumping into his lover, Jenica, and that things were going the way he wanted.

[I have only judged according to principles.]

Alice, an artificial intelligence that makes all judgments and decisions according to the principles and mission assigned to her, without being biased toward any interests or emotions. Jack said with a satisfied smile at her judgment, which was fairer than any other being.

“know. Thank you for treating me so fairly.”

[Nothing else.]

At that, Jack turned his head and looked down. In his eyes, he could see the Caribbean, busily moving and preparing something.

“No matter how you look at it, the way you play is so unique and novel..... He didn't go around and collect clues to the quest himself, but let the ruler of the Caribbean go free and deal with it instead... That's why Time is too short.”

Hundreds of thousands of large and small archipelagos in the Caribbean.

In the most basic way, you had to collect clues and items by going around all the places and performing related quests scattered about. No matter how experienced an explorer or adventurer is, clues can only be found after wandering around for at least half a year.

However, thanks to the residents and pirates of the Caribbean who are busy following Jae-young's instructions and searching for clues and information, that time is reduced to a phenomenal level.

[Time left until the start of the current scenario... 1 day, 2 hours, 39 minutes, 24 seconds... 23 seconds.....]

Alice's analysis that the start of the scenario was imminent. Hearing that, Jack waved his hand with a strange smile.

“Let's see... which continent is the closest to the Caribbean...”

At that moment, the Caribbean scenery reflected under his feet disappeared and the entire gigantic world of Arcadia appeared. And Jack muttered, contemplating the whole world with an interesting expression on his face.

“Crossing the endless sea... going south... the seaway splits in two?”

Two continents of the Caribbean. Jack, who was giggling as if he was having fun watching the two continents coexisting under him, inadvertently asked Alice.

“Which country is playing on the two continents below Alice?”

As if answering a question, a related information window popped up in front of Jack's eyes. Seeing this, he mumbled for the first time with a puzzled expression.

“Eh? Shouldn't this be like this?”

Two continents that Jaeyoung will reach with a very high probability. In the information window with the detailed information of the two continents, it was written like this.

[Country for the 3rd Continent: Japan.]

[Country for the 4th Continent: China.]
