Chapter 77 – 77. Causes of Traffic Accidents

“Fuck…”

“Khaaaaa!!!”

“That bastard got bitten!!”

“No!! You idiot!! If you get bitten, don’t look and kill it quickly!!”

A street in chaos.

The sun is already setting quickly and the zombies keep coming.

The deserters who tried to plunder Park Yeong-sik and his companions ended up being plundered by zombies and ghouls.

“Fuck..”

In particular, ghouls who were wearing items for some reason were a problem. At first glance, ghouls are armed with weapons that look like they were taken from a labyrinth.

‘Could it be that they also have a survival level? Can you even enter the labyrinth? Fuck.. No way..’

Lee Joo-hwan, the leader of the deserters, was sweating coldly and glaring at the ghouls confronting him. The guys were hiding behind cars or buildings, glaring at them as if they were going to kill them when they ran out of bullets. They are using zombies to weaken the deserter robbers.

‘Those damn bastards… Their intelligence is ridiculously high. If people like that run around in droves… Humans have no answer…’

It felt like the conversation wasn’t working, but the way they seemed to use zombies to weaken the other person and attack when they were weak was different from regular zombies. Looking at the intelligent eyes of the ghouls gave me goosebumps.

“Save bullets!”

At Lee Joo-hwan’s shout, the deserters struck the zombies’ heads with shovels or captured tools. Then, the ghouls who thought they had run out of bullets appeared one by one.

“Fuck!!”

Tang-!!!

Lee Ju-hwan immediately blew off a guy’s head.

The ghouls realized that they had been fooled and disappeared again. Then they started laughing, as if time was on their side, as if to let them know that if zombies swarmed and filled this street, you would all die.

In the first place, the goal of the ghouls was not human flesh. It was a gun. I don’t know how to use it, but the ghouls have realized that efficient hunting is possible only if guns are taken away from humans.

The situation was much more terrible than what was written in the survivor’s journal. Even though night and winter had not yet arrived, the intelligence of the ghouls was much higher than expected.

That has to be the case. Ghouls’ intelligence increases as their survival level increases. Yes, Lee Joohwan’s prediction was correct. Ghouls were also receiving the benefits of survival level like humans.

Although they did not receive special skills like humans, the fact that they were not attacked by zombies was itself a skill and a blessing.

“Hey, you bastards… “

Joohwan Lee couldn’t understand where on earth such crazy monsters had been hiding until now and then showed up.

They were just relieved to learn that the street they were standing on was the same place that had been swept away by the unit they were in a few days ago. Thanks to that, there are relatively few zombies now.

Perhaps because it was a place far away from residential areas, there weren’t a crazy number of zombies pouring out.

However, gunshots continued to ring out and it became noisy, so zombies would soon flock in from all directions.

So, if you waste bullets on zombies now, you won’t be able to catch the ghouls.

It was better to leave this place quickly.

“Just take care of those bitches and let’s get to the car quickly!”

In the end, they decided to sneak back. Of the twelve, nine survived. Three people died, but two women gained in return. This could be considered a fairly large harvest.

I gained a base and two women in just one day after deserting. Lee Ju-hwan thought to himself. I thought I would desert right away.

Of course, one of the captured women is bleeding from a gunshot wound, but if you take her as far as you saw, you can save her by handing her over to a guy with healing skills.

“Uh!! Joohwanhaeng!!! Excuse me!! Joe, there’s something involved that isn’t a zombie!”

“What!?”

Strange things appeared in front of those who retreated to avoid the ghouls.

‘What is that again… ‘

Pitch-black skeletons that even Lee Joo-hwan, who had entered the labyrinth twice, had never seen before were approaching, holding weapons and smashing the heads of zombies and ghouls.

The ghouls’ bodies exploded in an instant, as if they were using some strange skill.

“Now is the time!! I don’t know what it is, but let’s run away quickly!!!”

When unidentified skeletons were blocking the ghouls, Lee Joo-hwan, who thought he had to run away quickly, shouted to the remaining people and ran to where the car was parked.

“F-fuck..! They’re all here!! Quickly open the car door!!”

“Yes, yes!!!”

They divided into two teams and boarded the trucks and bongos they had driven to keep the approaching zombies in check by shooting the remaining bullets.

“Kyaaa!!!”

“Shut up!! Fuck you bitches!!”

Park Seon-hwa, who realized that if she was dragged away like this, the same nightmare as Dongyeong High School would repeat, abandoned the injured Lee Hee-sun and tried to shake her fist to run away alone, but the awakened deserter who was following behind quickly hits Park Seon-hwa on the head with the butt of a gun. I threw it away.

“Wow..”

“Hey!! Quickly pick it up and run!!”

“Yes!!!”

Park Seon-hwa, who had collapsed, and Lee Hee-sun, who could do nothing but cry due to her pain, were caught by the rough hands of the deserters and pushed away.

“Let’s go!!”

“Run fast!!!”

Soon the truck parked in front of the bongo started and the truck full of loot hurriedly moved forward.

Now just follow the truck like this and run away to the hideout. They robbed a convenience store, a lot of groceries, and even robbed two pharmacies. Now, we can take these girls back to the hideout and have fun.

Joohwan Lee leaned back in his seat, thinking that it was a successful farming. Now he felt a little relaxed.

‘But what on earth were those skeletons earlier..?’

Joohwan Lee took out a cigarette from his pocket and thought of the bones that had attacked the ghoul earlier. I still don’t know their identity, but since it was too strange to understand in the first place, Lee Ju-hwan gave up thinking about it any more.

‘Fuck.. It’s not like the labyrinth explodes or anything..?’

Joohwan Lee lit a cigarette and thought about the web novels he sometimes read for fun.

In those novels, there were many settings where monsters from the labyrinth came out due to a phenomenon called dungeon break.

So he guessed whether the monsters in the labyrinth had come out.

‘Oh no way…’

-Kwajangchang!!!!

“Kwaaaaa!!!!”

“What the fuck!!!”

“Wow..!!”

Something blocked the front of the van that was about to leave after the truck and swung the hammer, crushing the car and breaking the windshield.

The crushing blow sent shock waves throughout the car, destroying the engine. Those on board were also so shocked by their unprepared posture that they had a hard time coming to their senses.

“Shibaal…!!”

The airbag exploded and the man in the driver’s seat fainted. Lee Ju-hwan, who was riding in the passenger seat, held his automatic rifle and forced the door open and got out of the car as if crawling out.

I was attacked by something. You have to get down quickly and intercept it. That was all Juhwan Lee thought.

“Wow..”

He couldn’t see clearly what he had hit. All I saw was something suddenly standing up from the ground and hitting the car body with a hammer.

“Fuck… “

“Hmm.”

“Huh…?”

Lee Joo-hwan’s forehead was torn by the glass that flew out when the windshield of his car was shattered, and he bled. Because of that, he couldn’t properly see the man standing in front of him.

-Puhwaak!!!

Of course, you won’t be able to see it clearly even if you die.

Joohwan Lee’s head was separated from his body

******

When he arrived at the scene, he was able to roughly understand the situation. First of all, Park Seon-hwa and Lee Hee-sun were captured, and Yeong-sik and the other two who were in a group with them seemed to have run away.

‘I can’t do this or that because of the ghouls..’

How can I eat all of those robbers without missing them? After thinking for a while, I sent all five skeleton soldiers towards the ghouls.

Two or three of the skeletons that have learned Crushing Blow have Stamina Extortion, so it would be easy to catch a Ghoul.

First of all, my plan is simple. I catch ghouls with skeleton soldiers and kill those humans to eat their skills.

‘A simple plan indeed.’

Yeongsik will survive on his own. Judging by the fact that the machete was not broken, it means that Yeongsik is still maintaining quality.

‘Then let’s go!’

I bypassed the scene and went first to where the car was likely targeted by the robbers. The cargo compartment of the truck was full, as it contained so much daily necessities and food. It looks like they even swept up all the beer and liquor.

He must have been planning to harass Park Sun-hwa and Lee Hee-seon while drinking.

‘I can’t just go.. Give me the skills and go..’

I hid myself after feeding the magic gemstone to the perception-impairing ring. Then, I unsummoned the blood demon and prepared to summon it again.

For reference, the items held by the summoned person could be carried in if the summoning was canceled. However, it was not possible to hold too many items, only one bag and one weapon.

‘First, let’s send the truck, and when the bongo moves, hit it right away..’

Since the summoned beast comes back to you even if it dies anyway, you can summon it in front of a moving car, give it a crushing blow, and have it run over and die.

-Burn it quickly!!

Soon, the deserter robbers ran to where the car was.

Meanwhile, Park Seon-hwa, who must have fainted, was being carried on the robber’s back her, and Lee Hee-sun, who was bleeding from her shoulder, continued to cry. They shot at the zombies that followed and immediately began to flee the scene.

‘Summon..’

When the truck starts first, the van follows. I summoned a blood demon right in front of their car when they were trying to chase after the truck and speed up.

As soon as the blood demon was summoned, as per my command, it struck the car with the hammer I had provided in advance.

-Kwajangchang!!!

The car that was trying to speed up suddenly stops and shakes. Also, all the windows were broken and the guy in the driver’s seat seemed to have fainted.

A van stopped with smoke rising.

‘Wow…’

The Blood Demon was struck by a crushing blow and was thrown several meters into her car. Her limbs were bent in strange directions, but she wasn’t dead. She has vampiric recovery, so if she sucks her blood, she will be fine.

Or, you can cancel the summoning and heal it with magic stones. Anyway, I approached the guy who got out of the passenger seat.

“Si, Shivaal..”

He could not come to his senses, perhaps because his brain was shaken by the shock of the car accident. He felt a little guilty when killing innocent people, but he actually enjoyed killing these robbers. Should I say that I feel like I am serving justice.

Puhwaak–!!

With a machete, he struck the head of a man who had fallen and could not even stand up properly, as if beheading him. That was the end of it. Skills are flowing in.

[Squad Command (A)]

[Effect: You can communicate with three designated squad members using mental waves.]

[Handicap: If the distance is too far, communication is cut off.]

[Penalty: Sanity level is consumed quickly. You become more prone to stress.]

I gained a skill that seemed to be better than the thought sharing skill I had given to Saeyeon. Even for me, since I have sanity recovery, the penalty is virtually non-existent. It’s a skill that would be good to use in the labyrinth.

“F-fuck..! What are you..!!”

As I was checking the skills of the dead deserter, the door of the bongo opened and a bald soldier staggered out.

Before he pointed his gun at me, I approached him, activated one-point penetration, smashed his head with a machete, and grabbed the guy’s front handle as he tried to fall back and dragged him out of the car.

Three people fainted from shock, and two people barely came to their senses.

“Ugh!! Wait!!!!”

Wow!!! Puhwaaaaah!!!!

The machete was too big to swing in the car, so I pulled out the knife and rushed at the guys, delivering crushing blows like crazy. He didn’t use a gun. The gunshots are too loud, and you can’t use spiritual and physical transactions if you fire a gun.

“Kwaaaaa!!!!”

Their bodies explode. The flesh, bones, and internal organs were all crushed and exploded due to the crushing blow.

To be honest, using Crushing Blow in such a small space made them helpless and they had no choice but to explode and die. However, one drawback is that too much blood and flesh splatter even on me.

They even used a crushing blow on the abdomen, causing the intestines to burst and their excrement to splatter everywhere. Honestly, it’s so disgusting.

“Ugh…Fuck…”

Anyway, as the bodies and heads of the people who had lost their senses were smashed, the inside of the car became like something out of a B-grade, low-budget horror movie. You can literally see that the inside of the car has become bloody with blood and flesh.

Anyway, I killed all seven guys in the van. Then a truck came back toward us. He probably came back in a hurry because the rest of the group didn’t follow him.

-Pudduttak!!!

The truck approached, trampling on the blood demon lying on the road without paying any attention.
