The Empty Set of the Cemetery 3

“Okay, I understand.”

James accepted my rough sketch of the idea.

He nodded readily.

It was a mysterious harmony.

A martial arts-style formation using Greek statues.

It turned out that the producer was an American engineer.

I decided to create a warning device that would shine light with both eyes by implanting powerful light magic into the Venus statue.

James also had the idea of installing an automatic launcher capable of firing lances at the Sphinx statue.

Moreover, not all traps had to be made of stone statues.

I had intended to artificially create statues, artifacts, and other notable landmarks, but these were merely signposts to help players navigate the formation.

In addition, thousands of booby traps of various kinds would be waiting for the warlocks, and they would all form a large framework of the ‘Kimunjinshik’ that Unyang had spoken of.

“There are a lot of things here and there, but······.”

James wasn’t the only one who could create the devices.

Cooper, the production dwarves, and the rookie technicians who completed Pax FC’s training program decided to lend a hand.

“Somehow, things will work out in there.”

The maximum time I requested was three weeks.

There was about a month left until the invasion of Barnaul began.

It would also take time to set up the traps that had been completed in the formation.

“Now, what to do next······.”

The Byungma Yonggang where cracks appeared.

It was a matter of checking that place out.


Woohoo.

I came out through the subspace portal installed in Beijing again.

Then, I boarded a transport plane driven by Lee Yong-soo and headed to the Terracotta Army in Xi’an, China, where the cracks were discovered.

A distance that could be reached in approximately one or two hours by transport plane.

I could have gone in the P-22 that James had built, but since I wasn’t pressed for time, I decided to go in a relatively safer aircraft.

“It’s been quite a while.”

Lee Yong-soo, holding the joystick, spoke with a longing expression.

Because I’d been using the portal a lot lately, I hadn’t had much opportunity to hand over the wheel to someone.

Of course, he wasn’t playing around either.

Although the number was not large, Awakened beings with driving or operating abilities were steadily being absorbed into Pax FC, and it was also his role to educate and train them.

“Should we call it a training program for delivery workers?”

Lee Yong-soo let out a joke.

In fact, I too had a vision of bombers flying through the sky, carrying bombs and heavy weapons.

If you use the logistics center’s replication ability, you can produce unlimited quantities of anything, whether it’s airplanes or bombs.

Each and every one of the Awakened beings that Lee Yong-soo was training would become a pilot, and just as bombers had historically turned the tide of war, we too would be able to wipe out the invaders who had stained the Earth at an incredible speed.

I was currently thinking about the Geummunjeom method to be installed on the ground and laying out the Paxman’s battle-logistics network.

With a logistics network already open in all directions as a backdrop, Lee Yong-soo was already training bomb deliverymen who would soon be flying across the skies.

Perhaps this time, we could expect their first ‘air special delivery’ in the fight against Barnaul······.

“By the way, Avalon is the problem······.”

Separately, I was struggling with a completely different kind of ‘delivery.’

The home of the knights who wanted to be pulled to Earth by using the Chamber of Commerce’s consolidation function.

However, due to Barnaul’s cover-up, it was difficult to confirm the exact coordinates for the merger.

Although Pax was busy tapping away at his calculator, Avalon’s location was not easily revealed.

That was when.

Yong-soo Lee, who had been silently listening to my worries, suddenly brought up an old story.

“Mr. Jeonggyeom, I think you remember······ I used to work at Daehyun Express next to Pax Fulfill, right?”

“Yes, yes, that’s right.”

“There was one time when I was at a logistics center. It was clear that an order had come in, and there was a record of it passing through the automatic sorter, but when we tried to load and unload, no matter how hard we looked, there was no item. Everyone thought there was an error in the sorter system.”

He was reflecting on his past experiences to shed light on the current situation.

If the item that disappeared without a trace was Avalon, then the error that occurred in the automatic sorting machine could be said to be Barnaul’s cover-up.

“Do you know how I solved it then?”

“······How did you solve it?”

“I randomly placed the exact same order again. The box marked in red went through the sorter, went around the conveyor belt… and eventually, I found the missing box.”

The item that was finally recovered.

But there was a more fundamental intention hidden there.

“Actually, it didn’t matter if one product was missing. It was more important to fix the automatic sorter. That’s why I wanted to find out exactly how the error occurred.”

It was a good ending.

Not only did we find the missing item, but we also fixed the error in the automatic sorter to prevent it from happening again.

Yong-soo Lee told his own experiences as a fable.

In the end, what he wanted to say was······.

“If it’s certain that Barnaul will enter Earth in a month… wouldn’t they be able to track down Avalon’s location based on that information?”

It was a way to find the location of the hidden Avalon.

That was the problem.

Avalon, whose coordinates changed every moment due to black magic.

Because only by figuring out that pattern could we pinpoint Avalon’s exact location.

What if Barnaul planned to colonize Earth like Avalon?

What if they used the same pattern of black magic on Earth’s coordinates?

“······Certainly, that method may overlap.”

Without hesitation, I called out to Pax.

“You still haven’t found Avalon?”

[Yes.]
“Could you possibly calculate Avalon’s location based on the time Barnaul enters Earth?”

[Modify the condition.] [The constant ‘Entry into Barnaul’ is reflected as a fixed value in the variable rule.] [Operating······.]
No matter how high-performance the AI was, it seemed that it hadn’t considered such a method.

Unlike knowledge, wisdom was still the domain of humans.

Pax, who had entered the new calculation, took a while to calm down······.

[It’s possible.]
Finally, a positive answer was given.

The merger of Avalon is a strong possibility.

While Yongsu Lee was driving the transport plane towards Byungma Yong, I entered the subspace and asked Lancelot.

“So… how did Avalon come to be?”

One final thing to consider when consolidating Avalon was none other than the size and terrain of Avalon.

‘Even if you swallow it when you swallow it… you have to swallow it after considering the size.’

If you just think about it, it is true.

Even if it had a consolidation function, wouldn’t it be impossible to absorb a dimension larger than Earth?

This was especially true in cases where the size was similar to or as large as a continent.

A merger that overlays terrain from another dimension onto existing terrain would be a problem if it affected the Earth’s environment or innocent survivors.

Lancelot, in a phantom state, shook his fog-shrouded face from side to side.

“It’s not that big. If we compare it to Earth… it would be about the size of a small city.”

Lancelot thought calmly of his hometown.

Even though dozens of years had passed, it seemed as if he still vividly remembered the scene.

“The entire city is shaped like a circle. There are various mountainous terrains here and there, and there are also places where rivers flow, but… ultimately, the structure is designed so that the royal castle is located in the center, surrounded by a moat.”

It was a typical picture of a medieval city, as we all know.

A form in which a large outer wall surrounds the entire city, and in the center is a royal palace where the king and nobles reside.

But as I was vaguely imagining that scene, I ran into one question.

“Wait a minute… But isn’t Camelot in my subspace right now?”

“That’s right. Camelot was the capital of Avalon. The center of Avalon is probably empty. The people who lived around it are all undead, like us in the past.”

In other words, Avalon was now in the shape of a giant donut.

Lancelot circled around in place, as if trying to demonstrate its shape.

As the dusky smoke trailed off, a round, donut-shaped cloud appeared before my eyes like an illusion.

“Barnaul has completely turned the remaining Avalon into a factory zone. Whether they were former knights of the Knights Templar, merchants who ran shops in the central market, or ordinary people who farmed on the outskirts, they have all become eternal slaves of Barnaul. The souls that cannot be used as slaves have all been placed in black magic items and banished outside.”

A city covered in death.

But ironically, it was precisely this death that made Avalon unstoppable.

Because they all became undead who couldn’t die even if they wanted to.

“In terms of size alone, it would be about the size of the Lyceum mine in the United States.”

That was fortunate.

Even by eye, it is much smaller than Elvenheim.

It seemed like it would be okay to use the vast expanse of Chinese land or even float it out to sea if necessary.

“Sure, I can bring it. The timing has been decided as well…”

I couldn’t think of any other time.

The very moment when Barnaul enters Earth.

That’s exactly when Barnaul will reveal its innermost patterns.

Now there was only one thing left to do.

Choosing a place to attract Avalon.

When I started thinking about that specific location…

“Mr. Jeonggyeom, this is Byungma Yong.”

Yongsu Lee, who was driving the transport plane, announced the arrival.


Unyang brought news that a crack had appeared.

But what I found in the bottle was more than just cracks.

“… It’s not at that level?”

That was my impression.

An ancient ruin where Qin Shi Huang’s soldiers are said to be sleeping.

Because they were all surrounded by a golden curtain.

It is a surprising fact that the Chamber of Commerce has not yet announced the invasion of Barnaul.

At least for the Earthlings, the news of the invasion by the dark magicians was kept under wraps, and for the time being, it was unknown who would be satisfied with the process, but they were blocking the invasion of Byungma Yong, which was to be their stronghold.

“It’s a shame. We could have destroyed the combination beforehand.”

Yongsu Lee, who seemed to be feeling sorry, regained his appetite.

If someone heard it, they would criticize it as a shameless claim to destroy cultural heritage, but in an apocalyptic world where the spirits of the dead are possessed by the sick, it was a reasonable idea.

“… That’s right.”

It was the same from my perspective.

A large-scale gimun formation was being prepared with Unyang.

The original plan was to decorate the interior of the Byungma Yong as a giant maze made of organs.

However, the curtain was wrapped around the Byungma Yong and the museum located to the west.

As if they would not allow any visits from outside.

‘In the end… I have to surround it with ice.’

Forming a long line of stamens along the curtain.

That was the only way to use the tactics I had worked so hard to learn.

But the limitations were also clear.

Not only will this allow for more exits in all directions, but the formation will also become thinner.

While Pax FC’s forces were scattered, the thousands of cavalry troops could concentrate their power in any location.

An undead army made of clay that will never die.

What can I do to stop Barnaul from struggling to escape from the tomb?

“The consolidation should be done here.”

The idea was to build a huge fence around it.

“Let’s bring Avalon as our ally and attack the center together.”

Avalon, which lost the throne of Camelot.

The shape, coincidentally, was like a donut with a hole in the middle.
