The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 144: Preparing For Travel (1)

Ryu Min spent several days conducting field training with CPF squad members.

Whenever a report came in, theyd turn on the siren and rush to the scene as quickly as possible.

Swiftly surveying the crime scene, theyd grasp the situation at a glance.

Ideally, theyd confront the criminal on site, but most had already fled.

In such cases, theyd utilize tracking skills to follow the criminals traces.

If they were lucky enough to find the criminal, that was good, but if not?

Theyd search for witnesses or visit stores for a more thorough investigation.

Of course, if another report came in during the search, theyd hand it over to the regular police and move on.

It was important to eliminate as many criminal players as possible.

If they found the criminal, theyd subdue and handcuff them.

But these werent ordinary handcuffs.

These are player-specific handcuffs distributed to regular police. It takes roughly a strength of 150 in stats to break free.

After capturing criminals with the handcuffs provided by the squad leader, theyd hand them over to the police for legal proceedings.

Worried about handing players over to regular police?

The state had authorized the use of firearms against players, so regular officers were fully capable of confronting criminal players.

After all, even players cant dodge bullets.

Well, not yet, anyway.

Even with guns, players not handcuffed remained a threat.

But as police could use lethal force against threatening actions, armed officers could manage to some extent.

This should be enough to conclude the training.

Ryu Min was relieved as he looked at his squad members.

After several days of actual combat, theyd become capable of resolving cases on their own without his intervention.

Theyd killed several criminal players.

Though they seemed innocent people, having gone through four rounds made them less averse to killing.

They became police due to their disdain for criminals, after all.

None hesitated to make swift judgments.

Youve worked hard this week. With this, both theoretical and practical training are complete. Now I can leave with confidence.

Leave? What do you mean?

You think Id always be here to cover your backs? Im quite busy myself.

He had informed the Ministry, Infrastructure, and Transport a week ago that hed be leasing a flight to Nigeria.

Currently, he was just waiting for the flight path approval.

Hed even prepared passports under the name Lostyak.

His mind was already set on the trip.

Would there be problems catching criminal players without me?

No one spoke up.

Though they didnt say it, the squad members had grown fond of him over the week.

It was true they trusted, followed, and respected him as their squad leader.

A pillar of support.

The thought of such a leader leaving left them feeling empty and bitter.

Dont be too sad. Ill drop by from time to time to check on how youre doing.

With that, Ryu Min left some parting words for each member.

Ko Nam-choel. Youve completely fixed your dialect in just a week. Anyone would think youre a native of Seoul now.

Ha ha, you flatter me, Squad Leader.

Hwang Man-ki. Your recent performance has been impressive. Dont forget I always have high expectations.

Thank you, ha ha.

Kang Si-hyuk. Youve always been doing well. Just keep it up. Eh? Are your eyes welling up? Youre not crying because Im leaving, are you?

Ah, n-no, of course not.

Despite his words, Kang Si-hyuk turned away, dabbing his tears with his palm.

Youve all worked hard. Stick to the shifts Ive arranged, 3 teams, 2 shifts each. Its tough to do such a job 24/7. Contact me anytime if theres a problem.

Yes! Squad Leader! Thank you for your hard work!

Its as if Im retiring or something.

Ryu Min turned away with a smile hidden behind his mask.

He had a dependable squad now.

[This month marks the debut of the newly established anti-player squad, CPF. Showing unexpected success]

[Newly established CPF squad has dealt with 52 players in just a week! Easing the burden on police officers]

[Is it the CPF effect? Crime rates have dropped 32% compared to last week]

[Have you heard of the CPF squad? The newly established anti-player squad!]

[Theres a squad that executes criminal players? Everything about CPF!]

Is this the squad that hunts players down? Can they execute on the spot?

Definitely seems effective. The number of players committing crimes has plummeted.

Of course, itd be effective. If you commit a crime, you get killed.

Lmao, if I were a criminal, Id stay holed up at home too.

Not just randomly killing but only the heinous criminals.

The countrys gone mad. Players are people too, yet theyre killing them off like this.

Look, a criminal sympathizer up there.

If left alone, it would cause more harm. Better to eliminate them.

Criminals deserve to die. Period.

Shouldve done this sooner. Typical of the government to lock the stable door after the horse has bolted.

Exactly. Anyway, it seems Congressman Lee Sung-hyun did something right.

The squad leader is famous among players, right? Ranked number one, nicknamed Black Scythe?

Black Scythe? Is that the person who saved Congressman Lee Sung-hyun before?

Then he got in with the congressmans backing, lol.

Backed by the congressman? The decision for the squad lies with the chief of police.

Heard that Congressman Lee Sung-hyun actually recommended him. Theres an article about it.

No need to discuss his abilities; hes already proven himself by saving someone, so they mustve recruited him as a special case.

So, its all about connections, huh. Tsk tsk.

But considering the squads not causing trouble and is handling their duties well, seems the leaders position isnt just for show.

Ryu Min put down his phone after reading the comments.

The general reaction to CPF is positive. Its showing notable effects, so maybe thats to be expected?

He smiled contentedly, but his own reputation as Black Scythe hadnt improved much.

Naturally.

No matter how active a unit is, its seen as merely fulfilling its duty.

Unless something big happens, the squad leaders name wont make headlines.

Thats why hes heading to Nigeria.

To make something big happen.
