Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 2)

Chapter 248: Max, the Museum Manager (4)

I probably wasn't the only one who had received the quest.

Since the task was to save the continent, even the members waiting for me outside would probably have gotten the same system message.

Shortly after, the expedition members began to enter the administration room and settled in.

Seeing that some unfamiliar faces were visible meant that they had successfully managed to save the isolated survivors.

'They're in better condition than I thought.'

I had expected this.

In the beginning, staff Max was not actually a named monster but a magic aggregate classified as a dungeon guide. There was no reason why he would persecute them in the first place.

'He kind of has a pushover personality as well...'

Anyway, I could see that everyone harbored absurd expressions. They seemed to be asking me as to what the hell I was doing here.

They seemed confused as to how different the scenery now was. Compared to the previously screaming Max, they now saw me skillfully handling devices I had never before seen in my life, all while drinking the coffee the blond boy himself had made. I knew it was necessary to explain.

It was Park Yeon-joo who couldn't resist her curiosity any longer.

"What... is going on?"

"We made a deal. I said that I would fix the seal of the Ancient God."

"I-I see. And how do these devices..."

"I am not sure, but it is a system that is easier to understand than you think. In fact, at first sight, I thought I knew how it worked, so I proposed the deal. There are several noticeable errors. I'm pretty good with machines..."

"So this can be solved because you're pretty good with machines?"

Doubt filled Yeon-joo's voice, and I couldn't tell her it was because I had my Mind's Eye attribute that I was able to understand right away.

Even Kim Hyunsung looked surprised, but soon enough, his expression shifted to one of pride.

Once again, he had begun to appraise me as if I was a rare treasure he was glad to have gotten his hands on. Contrary to his subtle expression, Park Deokgu was more direct.

"I told you our Hyung-nim is a genius! Whoa! Hyung-nim is awesome!"

"It's not like that."

"Well, didn't you say that you knew just by looking at it?"

"..."

To be precise, I didn't have a good brain, but good eyes. If I didn't have Mind's Eye, none of this would have been possible.

However, due to Park Deokgu's cheers, the Black Swan members had begun to see me in an entirely new light. In the first place, I had already managed to get into their good graces by creating the perfect formation for the expedition.

Park Deokgu and Kim Hyunsung once more looked triumphant, and Jung Hayan began to look wary once more, perhaps because of the way the Black Swan members were now looking at me.

Though I wanted to bask in their attention, now was not the time. The preliminary program in itself would not be able to handle the Ancient God's Fragment.

In the main protective device's case, the Crack Guardians' arrangement was a system that moved by itself, while the reserve was a system which must be moved manually to catch him.

I could understand why Max was desperately holding onto it.

'You have to keep it tied up.'

The Fragment of the filthy Ancient God had not yet been completely sealed. Not only was he constantly wriggling, but he was struggling to cut down the preliminary program in one way or another.
