Chapter 170 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 170

The protagonist, known as Mr. Undertaker, reflects on the historical 'Empty Island Policy' of the Joseon Dynasty, using it to justify the mandatory evacuation of Jeju Island’s population. Yu Ji-won executes this order, guiding refugees to safety despite some resistance, recognizing that the approaching 'super monsoon' poses an existential threat far exceeding a normal typhoon. Guild leaders Dang Seo-rin and Cheon Yo-hwa, along with SG Net administrator Seo Gyu, coordinate public announcements and digital warnings, including notices from the rare 'Admin' account, to prepare the populace. Despite these warnings, many citizens remain complacent, citing Japan’s defensive infrastructure or dismissing the event as a simple rainy season, while others flee to Daejeon using National Road Management emergency caravans. As the storm arrives, Jeju Island is visually consumed by a massive, 10-kilometer-high vortex of seawater. Undertaker instructs Saintess Jeong Ye-ji to guide the storm’s trajectory toward the arks using flight-magic scouts from the Samcheon World guild, ensuring the vessel can withstand the impact. Before the storm hits, Undertaker briefs his team on the ark’s survival protocols: they must continuously bail water to counteract the flooding and use Ha-yul’s doll-string telegraph system for communication, as digital and psychic networks will soon fail. The super monsoon makes landfall, and the raindrops transform into the character for 'rain,' accompanied by frog croaks. Communication fails, and the ark’s control room is instantly flooded. Panic ensues as the team members, particularly Lee Ha-yul, begin mutating into frogs—a symptom of the 'void poison'—within seconds. Undertaker shouts instructions to ignore the panic and start bailing water immediately. Following his command, the team resumes the bailing motion, which magically reduces the water level. Once the room is dry, they emerge with greenish, webbed skin that is slowly healing. Undertaker declares the situation not yet resolved, noting the ark is submerged in deadly void poison, and prepares to inspect the other sections with Ha-yul, following the echoing frog croaks through the corridors.
