Chapter 307: The Method To Sift Gold (2)
Chapter 307: The Method To Sift Gold (2)
No matter how worthless a being might seem, the Secret Society recycled them if possible, depending on their utility.
The S-class Rasputin from Russia was decided to be recycled as a Guardian. After undergoing re-education with all her previous memories erased, she will become a solid and loyal member of the Korean Peninsula Guard, flashing her teeth with a thumbs-up.
[With this, even Korea can rest easy. A former S-class being is now protecting the Peninsula.]
“.......”
From now on, those who dared to cross the border would be met with resistance.
An A+ level ability user who was suspiciously diligent in guarding the border.
If someone was merely lost, they would be knocked unconscious and sent back outside the border. But if someone approached with malicious intent, they would be sent back with a giant hole in their body by this mysterious ability user.
In Russia, the villain Rasputin had disappeared, but that had nothing to do with the steadfast Guardian, who was guarding the border.
Because Rasputin died today.
[It’s like having an A+ level person stationed at the northernmost part of the Korean Peninsula, guarding the border constantly. The government should find this quite beneficial.]
“This is the way of the Secret Society.”
Taejo pointed to what used to be Rasputin, now being dragged to the education center by the Brewers, after the room was cleaned and all her magic power was drained.
“In situations where heroes can’t always step in, they provide support, establish cooperative relations with heroes, and make the necessity of the Secret Society recognized.”
[There’s no better way to highlight the necessity of the Secret Society than solving manpower shortages.]
For Yumir, the response to Platinum Sun online.
For Taejo, the measures against those vile ones who coveted the resources of the Korean Peninsula.
“What do you want? I don’t think you’d do this just because you’re moved by my past. Are you after... gold?”
[It would be nice to get some gold, but what we desire most is a state of no turmoil.]
The Secret Society gained by providing what the opponent desired, whether it’s a hero or a nation.
[About 10kg of gold as payment should suffice. However, the exposed gold mine needs to be disposed of.]
“Disposal?”
[I’m saying you should go ahead with your plan to blow up the gold mine. Make China and Russia believe that ‘the gold mine was destroyed’ or ‘the gold mine was worthless’.]
“But in reality....”
[The gold mine is still intact, and depending on the circumstances, you can continue extracting gold from it.]
The word “extraction” felt quite awkward, but in the case of the Shinuiju gold mine, “extraction” is fitting.
[Taejo, the fact that the amount of gold has increased, is that true?]
“...Yes. The amount of gold has increased since I first discovered the mine.”
Currently, the resources of the Korean Peninsula were multiplying.
Like plants, these resources took root deep in the ground, absorbing mana as nutrients, and then converting these nutrients into matter, increasing the material over time. In theory, the underground resources of the Korean Peninsula were ‘infinite’.
It might be due to the impact of the meteorite, a feeling that even the world was embracing resources for the sake of the great Republic of Korea.
Even the Secret Society had noticed this part and was taking maximum precautions to prevent this information from spreading.
But information didn’t always stay contained just because we were cautious.
[This is the first gift. Take this list and sort it out as you see fit.]
“This is....”
[These are the spies within Korea identified through thieves. There are a few in the Ministry of Industrial Resources and some legislators involved in land development. There are also a few in the Haegneul Construction group.]
One by one, even S-class heroes were made to join hands with the Society.
Starting with Gwang Ik Gong, Yoon Iseon, who became an agent of the Society, was given a position, Baek Seol-hee was corrupted into an affair, and now, Taejo was being informed of the usefulness of the Society.
[If you are worried about the gold mine, there is one way to handle it properly. Brewer, bring it here.]
“Yes.”
The Brewer brought the pre-prepared item and placed it in front of Taejo.
Taejo fiddled with the ‘miniature’ placed in front of him, inspecting it inside and out, then tilted his head in confusion.
“A train...?”
[If you’re worried about leaving the gold here, you can transmute the gold into a train and transport it on the railroad.]
“But for that, we need people-”
[Why not just make it a train? There’s no need to carry it, just create a train made of gold.]
“......!”
Taejo’s mouth hung open in astonishment.
[Were you thinking of loading it onto freight cars? That’s a shame. If you leave just enough gold to make it seem like the mine is almost depleted, and then extract the rest to create a train, no one will suspect a thing.]
“The exterior....”
[Of course, it should be painted. With magic. Make it look like a regular train. Covering the gold with something is a basic tactic in concealment. Of course, this isn’t a crime—just applying some techniques used in crimes for our purposes.]
Neither China nor Russia would notice a thing.
From Shinuiju down to Kaesong, and heading towards Busan or somewhere else in Korea, the whole train made of ‘gold’ would be unnoticed.
[Your ability is metal manipulation. You’re not limited to just making small objects; you can create something like this as well.]
“.......”
[Once you understand the structure, making it is quick. After embedding the form into your mind through the miniature, you can scale it up to the size that fits the railroad and make it run.]
Taejo was capable of doing that.
[Blow up the mine, deceive the enemies into thinking the mine is nearly depleted and unprofitable, and the actual gold can be transformed into a freight train and sent down south. This way, China and Russia won’t bother targeting the Shinuiju gold mine again.]
“.......”
[Taejo, think of it comfortably.]
I approached Taejo and gripped his shoulder firmly.
[You’re just making a model a bit bigger. It’s something you can definitely do.]
“...A train?”
[Of course.]
Taejo can do it.
[If a train doesn’t suit you, how about a tank—]
“I’ll make the train.”
Creating a golden train using his ability.
In a world where anything was possible with imagination.
“I’ll make it. The golden train.”
