Chapter 570 – 570. Various Forms of Survival
The update is finally finished.
As a result, Ha Jin-woo checked outside Hyoseon Girls’ High School, breaking into a cold sweat.
“Fuck..”
“Woah!!!!”
“Keek!!!!!”
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of zombies were pounding on the walls surrounding Hyoseon Girls’ High School.
They did not dare to spawn inside the area where the idol of God was located, but they were spawned outside of that area and were targeting people inside Hyoseon Girls’ High School.
The rotten smell of corpses right in front of you.
The word survival flashed before my eyes and the word death strangled me.
Ha Jin-woo sighed at this.
“The world. Are you really doing this to ruin yourself?”
Unlike Ha Jin-seong, who is in charge of slave management and internal affairs of the base, his younger brother Ha Jin-woo’s main duties are external patrol and farming.
As a result, his job he was to move around and manage things, but the situation became quite difficult.
‘There are too many zombies.’
Today, I planned to wander around various places, including Citizens’ Park and Yeouido, where ghost gates often appear, to search for ghost gates.
However, as I saw the zombies spread out in front of me, the thought of going outside disappeared.
It’s a ridiculous amount.
There were so many that it was impossible to count them all.
Such zombies were filling the streets, roads, and empty buildings, singing about the death of the living.
“Huh.”
Ha Jin-woo felt a feeling of stuffiness for the first time in a long time.
After incomprehensible events unfolded, his life entered a new phase when he met Jang Jo-jun.
It was worth living. His position as the younger brother of his older brother, a slave manager, was quite sweet, and the right to survive given to him even if he stayed still gave him a strong desire to settle down as well as debauchery.
But today, with the spectacle unfolding before his eyes, he was again feeling the same sense of despair he felt when he first saw zombies.
“Let’s gather here for now.” Everyone, gather around.”
Ha Jin-hoo gathered together the members of the reconnaissance team who were planning to go out with him today.
“Have you fully figured out the situation?”
“Yes. Hey boss. Can we go out today?”
“I don’t know. It was a huge mess.”
“Then the guys outside…”
“Ah. That’s right. Ha. Chew..”
Ha Jin-woo then remembered the evening patrol team outside.
If it’s like this outside, all six awakened evening patrol members should be considered dead.
“Are you going to save me?”
“It’s impossible. Those six people. It’s unfortunate, but I’m giving up.”
At Ha Jin-woo’s words, the awakened scouts despaired. I want to go out to save my colleagues, but I am unable to help.
It was crazy for them, who were only in their early 20s at level level, to go through the hordes of zombies and rescue their comrades who might not be anywhere.
“I’ll have to pray that Roach will sort it out roughly.”
“Ah…”
Ha Jin-woo turned around. Just looking at it makes you dizzy.
It is a waste of manpower to call Jang Jo-jun and his women to save just 5 normal class awakened people. They wouldn’t even move in the first place.
Everyone was busy with their own work. Someone was preparing to attack the newly opened labyrinth, and someone else was discussing re-attacking the Forest of the Missing and the Catacombs.
There is a lot of work to do, but they will not move to save the lives of only 5 worthless awakened people.
Because they themselves knew better how worthless human life is.
“Let’s prepare thoroughly and clean up the front yard. Forget about the colleagues who have all left. If you keep thinking about it, it will only make your heart hurt. “Thank goodness it’s not you.”
“Right. That is correct.”
“Yes…”
After a moment of silence, they started moving again.
They realized that it would be crazy to go out and rescue the evening patrol when they didn’t know where they would be, so they decided to clean up the front yard.
I guess they’re deliberately trying to move quickly so as not to have time to be sad. It’s common. In a world that is falling apart, there are many cases where concern for and caring for others is not reciprocated. I had to be able to quickly throw away what I had to throw away and move on.
“If you happen to get bitten while cleaning up the front yard, come back right away. Because there is a cure in the abyss.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Then let’s all clean as much as we can.”
Ha Jin-woo and the reconnaissance team went outside.
Even if you accidentally get bitten by a zombie, Vesper can cure the zombie virus, so all you have to do is enter the abyss before it turns.
“Let’s go!!”
Ha Jin-woo and the awakened scouts quickly moved to clean up the front of Hyoseon Girls’ High School.
Meanwhile.
As a result of a surge in the number of zombies due to an update while returning to patrol, the patrol team members hid in the nearby War Memorial of Korea and were trapped there.
Made up of six people, they were hiding inside the War Memorial of Korea’s weapons exhibition room to avoid the sudden explosion of zombies after the update.
“Fuck. “What should I do with this?”
“Captain. “Can we go back alive?”
“Hey. Don’t be offended you guys. Captain Jinwoo will definitely come to save us.”
I know it won’t come.
However, the patrol leader Choi Tae-seong could not tell the truth to his members as it was,
As soon as hope disappears, the six people here will have only two options left: to die from being bitten or to commit suicide before that.
“Let’s all move as much as possible. We will definitely…Probably be able to return alive.”
“Captain..!”
“That’s right. If you give up, you die. Jojun Jang said. If you struggle until the end, light will come.”
Lee Su-ho, a member of the patrol team, mentioned Jang Jo-jun with shining eyes.
The so-called ‘Naraka Children’, who spent their childhood in the abyss and reached their coming-of-age ceremony, show blind trust and reverence for the being named Jang Jo-jun.
Having been exposed to Manbokism for a long time, I came to worship Jang Jojun as if it was natural. It was a kind of fanaticism.
“Okay then. Everyone check the equipment. Let’s escape. “The goal is to get to the base as much as possible.”
Since they cannot receive help from the truly powerful, they must band together and save each other.
That’s why they trusted their team members. Because if you don’t believe, you will fall apart.
“Then, let’s check the situation outside again and then come back… “
“Keekeeeee!!!”
As soon as Choi Tae-seong, the patrol leader, said to check outside, a zombie rushed into the exhibition room.
A zombie with gaping holes where the eyes should be.
A monster with an abnormally large nose and specialized in tracking.
A mutant entity that was blind but had an extreme sense of smell rushed in.
He caught the scent of the living wafting through the rotting corpses and found the awakened people, and all six people who were hiding were discovered by him.
This is the appearance of someone different from the existing zombies. The awakened people were embarrassed.
“Holy shit!!!”
“Come. It’s coming!!!!”
Hundreds of zombies rushed into the exhibition hall, destroying it.
All of the awakened people were wearing full body armor made in the abyss, but it was crazy to be able to block all those zombies with just that.
Moreover, there are countless special zombies among the runners.
“Ugh!!! It explodes!!!”
Boom!!!!
Some zombies rushed in and self-destructed.
In an instant, one of the six awakened people was caught in the corpse explosion and was thrown away.
Fortunately, he did not die instantly thanks to the enchanted armor, but he suffered a serious blow.
My legs were bent in a strange direction. I can’t get up.
“Suho!!!”
“Run!!! Just throw it away and run!!!”
In the face of survival, loyalty has no value.
Lee Su-ho, whose leg was broken, was immediately surrounded by zombies and his armor was torn off.
Moreover, when ghoul-class zombies called stalkers rushed at him and ripped off his limbs, Lee Soo-ho had to die without even being able to resist.
Not only were there a lot of zombies, but the mutated individuals and special zombies among them were giving off too many anomalies.
The common warrior class had no way to survive anymore. Moreover, it meant that everyone below level 15 should just die.
“Huh… Huh. Seongtae. Hey. Seongtae Jeon.”
“Joe, leader. The leader and other team members…”
“It’s scattered. Damn.”
Of the five who survived, the remaining three, except for leaders Choi Tae-seong and Jeon Seong-tae, went to an unknown place.
“That big-nosed zombie will sense our scent again.”
“What should I do? “I have no magic power.”
“I’m going crazy.”
There is only one option left.
“Chief..”
“It seems there is no other way than this. I didn’t know that I couldn’t even find hope. Let’s believe that later, someone in our family will earn 100,000 points and revive us.”
“…”
Medication is provided to patrol and reconnaissance teams. Suicide pill. It was manufactured in the abyss, and was given as a medicine to encourage people to take medicine and die if they were likely to be captured by the enemy.
Leader Choi Tae-seong tried to swallow a pill.
Because I didn’t feel like I could survive. Because I witnessed the death of Lee Soo-ho, whose limbs were torn off before my eyes.
He could die without any regrets.
“Are you going to die already?”
That is, until a monster appears.
“Who are you?”
“Me? Gun shop. Total four. We also sell bullets.”
“Oh, no..”
Last item in the update.
The emergence of a gun shop.
An even more bizarre being than the existing arms dealer appeared before the survivors.
They took out their weapons and showed them to the survivors.
“Well, how about it?”
“This is…”
[Totsmir’s Hand Cannon: A mass-produced product from the Totsmir workshop with each shot having insane destructive power. If you run out of bullets, you can shoot by saving your life. It has the destructive power to wipe out everything blocking its path.]
“It is a product of the Tochmir workshop. “One hit can blow up this entire building.”
Tochmir.
The items given as a reward for Jang Jo-jun’s achievement of ‘overwhelming firepower’ were all the work of a dwarf named Totsmir.
The gun store is now touting items that may come as achievement rewards to them.
“Uh, how much is it?”
“100,000 points. No. It’s so cheap. I need to get 150,000 points. It’s the only way to survive here. “I should get that much.”
“Yes? 150,000?”
“Uh, none. That kind of point.”
“Okay? Then get something else instead.”
He took out the price list.
“This, this…”
——
[1 stat – 1,000 points]
[1 level – 5,000 points]
[Normal Class – 100,000 points]
[Rare class – 200,000 points]
[Unique Class – 1 million points]
[Lifespan: 1 year – 100 points]

“You can sell anything. What is it like? Why don’t you try selling it?”
“…”
Taeseong Choi was worried.
His worries did not last long.
This was because zombies were approaching the staff bathroom where they were hiding.
“I will sell the level.”
“Skills and stats disappear one by one. Does it matter?”
“Can I select skills and stats that will disappear?”
“Of course.”
“Yes. Then I will sell the level.”
“Good. Are you there?”
“Yes? “I… “
“Jeon Seong-tae. Are you planning on not selling it? “Sell levels until you reach 100,000 points.”
That’s how the two sold the level.
I returned my experience, skills, and stats until they reached 150,000 points. That wasn’t enough, so I sold my lifespan and was finally able to purchase a hand cannon.
Sell the present and gain tomorrow.
A gun shop leisurely wanders the streets.
There were gun shops wandering around, buying despair and selling hope to survivors.
