A helicopter with two rotors was heading towards the grayish area.


    There were six people on board, including the pilot.@@@@


    Everyone except me was an Awakened.


    The average age was in the early twenties, but the atmosphere inside the helicopter was heavy, and the silence was almost oppressive.


    The reason I was on board the helicopter was, as always, my pathological curiosity.


    The concept of luring monsters had been proposed long ago, but it was considered unrealistic and unlikely to come to fruition.


    You could see that just by looking at the map of South Korea.


    If you’re going to lure monsters, where would you send them?


    During that process, millions of people lost their homes and became refugees, but instead of protesting against their government, the Japanese turned on and looked down on the displaced refugees.


    The method Japan used to lure monsters was a paradigm shift.


    When monster groups began frequently attacking the Awakened training facilities near rifts, the Japanese government hypothesized that monsters were drawn to the Awakened, who emitted waves similar to those of small monsters. They then placed unfit Awakened in mass detention facilities and observed the movement of monsters.


    The monsters, instead of attacking nearby military bases, gathered around the Awakened detention centers.


    And thus, the monster luring facility was invented.


    Ironically, it was called the Lighthouse.


    Woo Min-hee had benchmarked this method and created a similar lighthouse north of Paju.


    "That’s the lighthouse," she said, pointing out the window.


    Without a word, the woman gestured toward the endless, ochre-colored sea that stretched beyond the bay. Beyond the sea, a shabby, dilapidated city sprawled, and beside it stood a massive structure that almost made me question my eyes.
