Chapter 158
The evaluation by the Bureau Chief and ten S-rank Hunters, along with the absurdly high eligibility criteria for applications, served a singular purpose: to raid the mysterious world known as the Core.
However, calling it a “raid” was more of a facade; in reality, it was simply an exploration. The actual raid was carried out solo by one man, Do-Jun. The general public remained unaware of the truth, believing that the raid on the Core was conducted by the Korean Rankers of the Hunter’s Bureau, led by Behemoth Guild.
However, even when the Core was fully raided, its dangers far exceeded any Fissure on Earth, so they couldn’t just assemble a random team of people for the conquest. That was why Young-Chul planned to deploy proven S-rank Hunters, as there was only so much the three First Hunters could do on their own.
“Thank you for answering my questions.” Young-Hwi lowered the microphone.
Like others who were unaware of the truth behind the Special Contract, he remained in shock for quite a while.

Murmurs spread through the crowd following this massive revelation. People chattered as they left the building.
“They’re selecting members for the Core raid... This is huge news.”
“It’s crazy that you have to be an S-rank Hunter just to qualify for the evaluation.”
“But if you get chosen, you’ll become a megastar instantly, right?”
“Man, even being an S-rank makes you a massive star. Can any of us even become S-rank in the first place?”
