Chapter 120 – Starting Pistol (2)

Starting Pistol (2)

Kik-! Quaang-!

The SUV rolls down the road, screaming at the hand gesture that pushes the body away.

As if to drive away flies, the obstacles that hindered my path disappeared at once with a simple wave of my hand.

Tring-!

[Name: Han Se-gye]
[Gender, Age: Male, 23 years old]
[Common name: tyrant]

[Strength: 186(40+146)] [Agility: 186(40+146)] [Intelligence: 40] [Sire: 730]

[Remaining points: 370]

Even while saving the remaining points of 370, despite investing similar points to the physical system in intelligence, which was relatively neglected—

My physical stats passed 100 before I knew it.

186.

A smile filled with satisfaction with the physical stats totaling 372 naturally popped out.

A physical stat that increased in proportion to the explosively increased royal power.

Kkeudeuk-!

Feeling the transcendental power to the fullest, I thought of the Lions Meeting and the new competitors there.

Mistress, no-nonsense rich man-

And even the young master.

I couldn’t open their exact status window, but it was a status window of stats that could never be lacking compared to them.

Besides, the main body of my status window might be—

[Exclusive Skill]

[Partial Incompetence Lv.5]
[You are the lord of incompetence.]

[Your incompetence will remain in the world for a little longer.]

[Applying Specialization: Partial Residency (Always Hide)]

[Crude Dignity Lv.5]
[You are too shallow to be a king.]

[The bonus stat sum of (sceptre × 0.2) is applied to physical stats]
[Everyone watching your actions will feel unpredictable fear and intimidation.]

[Applying Specialization: Shut Up and Drink (Always Hide)]

[Deductive Dominance Lv.5]
[But like it or not, you are their king.]

[Everything you do triggers a positive factor in obedience.]
[Your actions trigger positive factors more effectively, especially for women.]
[You can identify the underlying psychology that causes positive factors in women.]

[Applying Specialization: Tyrant on a White Horse (Always Hide)]

It was my skills that I invested points one by one, wrapped up my headaches, and chose the optimal specialization.

My own exclusive skills optimized for dominating the group and building and linking my exclusive stat, ‘Kingdom’.

Now, just by looking at it, I closed the status window and stared beyond it.

The empty spot where the translucent status window that had filled the field of view in an instant had disappeared.

There, the downtown area exudes a strangely different atmosphere from Eunpyeong-gu.

Seodaemun-gu.

From now on, it was a new territory to be secured with more heart and soul than Eunpyeong-gu, the base.

Unlike Eunpyeong-gu, where we were the first visitors after the disaster, we can feel the touch of strangers everywhere.

It was natural to feel that the road, where the time to clear vehicles obstructing movement was more frequent than the time spent in the vehicle, had entered a section where movement was possible without removing vehicles.

A road that had already been cleared by someone else was welcoming me.

Widely-!

After all, I turned around, shaking my hand that had cleared the vehicle that had hindered our movement for the last time.

Three cars with gurgling exhausts waiting for me to clear the road.

Among them, Kim Woo-jung, who was behind the wheel in the frontmost car, was reflected through the windshield.

While entering Seodaemun-gu from Eunpyeong-gu, it was a sight he had seen so many times, but his stupid face with his mouth still wide open.

After our eyes met, I passed the search crew who hurriedly adjusted their expressions and boarded the back seat where the door opened like an automatic door.

“Aigoo~ You put a lot of hard work, President, hehe!”

Kim Woo-jung’s disgustingly identical expression and the same disgustingly identical reaction.

Goh Jang-hoon, who opened the back door in advance with exquisite timing, started to tremble again.

“This is true- every time we say we’ll do it~ we’ll do it~ but you go out and do what we have to do–”

Widely-!

“I’m just sorry and I’m grateful, President, hehe!”

Goh Jang-hoon’s snout flutters without rest until the back door closes.

A drained laugh flowed from Gojang-hoon, who kept putting his butt on and off the seat and making a sad expression.

“If you knew that well, you should have come out and helped out.”

Don’t suckle like a puppy that needs to pee.

The towel that Koh Koo Hoon is holding out to me with a sly smile.

Wiping his dirty hands with a moderately moist and warm towel, he said to Koh Goh.

“Ah~ That’s something you should never do, President.”
“Why.”

Koh Goh-hoon shakes his head and chatters softly.

He took the towel I held out again with both hands and drew an arc with torn eyes.

“In the first place, the president’s order was not to waste time and just wait inside, so how could we break that order, hehe.”
“Then why are you whimpering like a pooped puppy?”
“Isn’t that because it’s even more unacceptable?”

Goh Goh-hun smiles brightly while holding the towel I gave him.

Far from being bright or glaring, the face that looked more cunning spoke the following words.

“It makes no sense to just sit still when the President is working so hard, hehe.”

… What the.

So, isn’t it a very blatant twist on the so-called ‘action’?

Like a senior in the military or a junior in the company who is belatedly parenting and restless when he is pouring water.

Yeah, now that I think about it, this is exactly what it looks like.

“… If you can’t say anything.”

Indeed, there was no liquidation flow in Abu.

“Hehe, it’s Abura. I’m serious, President.”

The eunuch’s solemn face reacted immediately to the bobbing laugh.

No, the vehicle, which had stopped for a moment behind a cunning face that wanted to express solemnity, started rolling its wheels again.

The first vehicle that the goon and I are riding in, and the second vehicle that the search team 1 is riding in.

And the third vehicle, full of basic supplies such as food, resumed its entry into Seodaemun-gu with an exhaust sound at the same time.

“Anyway, are you all right, President?”

I turned my head back for a moment to check the vehicles behind me.

As I checked the cars following through the rear window, I heard Goh Goh’s cautious question.

When I turned my head again to face Goh Hoon, Go Go Hoon entered, keeping his mouth shut and making eye contact with me.

The eyes of Koh Goh-hun, who was quietly watching me as if asking for my permission.

With a gentle nod of the head, Goh Goh’s closed mouth opened again.

“Even if we focus all our efforts on you, you are not the only enemy of ours.”

Haeseong Kang.

A successful Korean venture entrepreneur and young wannabe.

‘A guy who only pretends to have good manners’ who always stuck to Siwoo and rolled his tongue like a tongue in his mouth.

“What do you plan to do with the sudden rich man, President?”

Gently lowering his head, he looked at Koh Goh, who asked politely, then turned his head back to the rear window.

Two vehicles driven by Search Group 1 Kim Woo-jung calmly follow the lead.

It was a personnel appointment that did not quite fit the name of’all-out war’ that was announced in the conference room.

Excluding me and Koh Goh-Hoon, the Expedition consisted of only the first search team that I had painstakingly raised from the beginning of the library.

But it was an unavoidable part.

Just because I was concentrating all my energy on him, I couldn’t really care about him.

The camp had become too large for such a one-dimensional action.

Tring-!

[‘Park Tae-ha’ has killed the zombie.]

[A Tribute of Obedience]

[You have earned 1 point.]

To increase royal authority and points-

The expansion of the territory of Eunpyeong-gu, or Banseok, must continue for the farming of new campers and the adaptation and training of the new campers.

No matter how reliable the protection of the temporary protection period was, even if they had not been able to find a competitor who would bring a great threat around Banseok University.

The biggest enemy and disaster of this world was ‘zombies’.

So she had to remain on the rock, Park Tae-ha, who could train and lead the new search crew.

In addition, in order to back up Park Tae-ha, who is actually an ordinary civilian, Dae-hwa Bang, a talented person and strike leader who has been with me for the longest time, had to remain on the rock.

The same was true of Yoo Seo-jun, who did not have a significant impact on the battle, and Jang Deok-gu, who was sweating profusely and taming the queen bee.

It’s also a bit cold-hearted, but the same was true of the Cha sisters, who were of little use in this situation.

Two people with no special ability to protect themselves.

There was no reason to bring my own precious jewels to a dangerous area full of variables.

Of course, when I explained to the two of them why we couldn’t go together, I gave a little, no, a lot of reasons, but–

They eventually accepted my opinion and nodded silently.

Of course, when she nodded her head, Cha Seol-hee stuck out her mouth like a duck, and Cha Ha-yeon showed off her displeasure and sulked, but ―

I couldn’t put them in danger just for that reason.

In addition, the purpose of this expedition was to integrate Banseok University.

The dormitory area, which had reacted lukewarmly to the integration while keeping an eye on me.

Thanks to the rumors of the disappearance of the women in the agricultural college and the special management center, they can no longer make a sound and are distorted, but-

But that doesn’t change the fact that they’re rats.

The moment I disappeared for the Seodaemun-gu expedition, which had dominated Banseok University with overwhelming force.

This moment is an opportunity that won’t come again, and it’s the last time they can make a move.

Rats are usually more active at night when the sun is up than during the day when the sun is up, so it must be so.

But it didn’t matter.

Serung-!

At the same time as giving them a breather to do their ratty things.

Widely-!

I took the biggest knife they had.

Exotic eyes that are captured in the rearview mirror of the vehicle.

The deep blue eyes remind you of the sea just by looking at them.

Serung-!

The blue eyes that quietly met me without avoiding my gaze—

Widely-!

He quickly avoided my gaze and headed for the car window.

As usual, Linnea raised the tip of the sword with her thumb and made it collide with the scabbard.

“It’s okay, don’t worry too much about getting rich.”

I also turned my gaze from the rearview mirror back to Koh Goh.

At this moment, everything I can do is already in progress.

I turn the gears that were already running well, spray rat poison to catch the little rats hiding in my kingdom, and storm into the cave of the beast that opens its mouth the most at me.

It was literally greed and arrogance to do something more here.

“You know that Kang Hae-seong is already clinging to Yeon Si-woo thanks to the delivery man’s information delivery.”

It reminded me of Kang Hae-seong’s face as he commuted to and from work in Baeksan until his feet were worn out like the photos of Baeksan men who searched Mapo-gu.

“Let’s think about the upstart rich man after putting all our effort into supporting him.”

Total power.

Now that most of the supernatural powers remain on the rock.

Despite such obvious facts, no one denies that this expedition is an all-out war of the rock.

“Yes, President.”

Because I am the all-out force of the rock, and where I am is the all-out war of the rock.

“Then, I will stop moving and look for a building that can be used as a base.”

Now that we have reached the outskirts of the enemy base, it is time to build our own secret base.

Kim Woo-jung, who listened to Goh Jang-hoon’s report and moved his foot to the brakes.

“No.”

However, I immediately shook his head and tapped Kim Woo-jung on the shoulder.

“Go inside.”
“… Yes?”

Goh Goh, who spits out a little dumbfounded sound at my command, and Kim Woo-jung, who turns his head without saying anything.

I showed a faint smile and pointed to the deeper part of Seodaemun-gu with my chin.

“More inside.”

***

Sinchon, Seodaemun-gu.

Among them, it is a downtown area with department stores and marts on both sides of the road in the center.

“… Oh.”

The elongated white exterior walls and blue windows glistening in the sunlight.

Even the long glass outer wall that transparently reflects the elevator.

Koh Ga-Hoon let out a slight exclamation as he looked at Hyundai Department Store, which he hadn’t seen in a long time.

It was a normal scene, the usual Hyundai Department Store, except for the always noisy sidewalks and the quiet roads.

“…”

I could see Goh Goh, who caught sight of Hyundai Department Store and E-Mart on the side, and looked around with a silly laugh.

It’s clear that someone has sorted it out, but there are still countless cars left on the road and still green trees.

Human.

It was a strange landscape where only humans disappeared.

That’s why it was more horrifying disaster than any other disaster.

Took-!

A hand patting the shoulder of Koh Jang-hoon, who was constantly swinging around.

How-

“Did you prepare a pretty pot, eunuch?”

I put on a shoulder strap to Koh Jang-hoon and asked calmly.

At my question, the eunuch recovers his unique cunning face and begins to smile.

“Isn’t the president’s syllabus more important than mine?”

How-

“Would you like to go inside and take a look?”
“Where are you going to find the syllabus, even at a department store? Luxury hall?”
“Of course, it’s something the president will have, so we have to find it in the luxury goods hall.”

… Crazy guy

Koh Goh’s curving waist is more evident because he is wearing a shoulder strap.

At the Abu bombing that finally started working again, I let go of his shoulder with a small smile.

“What is the essentials?”

It’s a scene where even a speck of dust in the department store has been swept away, let alone a kitchen cabinet.

Wheein-!

The wind blows softly and winds around the front door of Hyundai Department Store.

I muttered as I looked at the Hyundai Department Store, where nothing could be seen except for the blowing wind.

A wide open glass door and the desolate energy of the sunlight penetrating through it.

“Well, the guy who leaves the obvious jackpot as it is is an idiot.”

There was no way the boy from a conglomerate house would just pass by a bonanza that was not ranked 1st in farming, but approached 0th.

“Anyway, I’m more worried about you than us or our kids.”

I turned my gaze from the front door of the department store to stare at Linnea.

Like in the conference room, like in the car we were in—

A foreigner who is silent like a borrowed barley sack.

“Anyway, I am a woman. You’ll be very, very uncomfortable around men for a little while longer.”
“… Are you okay. Now I’m more used to this situation…”

Lynn’s smiled as she shook her head in my concern.

“It’s the right thing for me to step forward rather than Seolhee and Hayan. I really don’t mind.”
“… Okay?”

Even though he speaks as naturally as possible, his thin voice still retains the slurred pronunciation unique to foreigners.

I turned her head with a light smile as if in response to her courageous humor.

… Well. If I really don’t mind, I’m in trouble.

Neither Cha Seol-hee nor Cha Ha-yeon, who are her same members and precious younger siblings―

Without the dormitory colleagues who went through the crisis together.

Spending at least two weeks alone with awkward people.

It will be a very tiring and difficult job more than I thought, no more than my determination.

It was all the more so because she had expected that in the first place and had Linnea join her expedition.

“Chief!”

A shout from a vehicle entering the parking lot.

At the cry of Kim Woo-jung, who lowered the car window and poked her head out, Linnea’s head immediately turned.

“There are vehicles blocking entry in the parking lot! Could you help me a little?”
“Ah, yes, I see!”

Lynnea jumps out of her garage and nods her head without hesitation at her hand gesture pouting at the parking lot.

I thought of Linnea, who immediately reacted to the word ‘Chief’, and quietly stared at her back.

Rinnea and I are part of the search team.

The foreign students remaining at Banseok are Park Tae-ha and Bang Dae-hwa.

‘… Slowly and surely.’

Before zombies overrun the world, and after zombies overrun the world.

I stared at her back, still only a stranger.

“After securing a parking space, I was told to secure a base on the top floor.”

A car pushed aside at Linnea’s gesture.

Looking at the vehicles of the expedition slowly digging through the gap, Koh Koo Hoon reported to me.

“Ah- come to think of it, the term branch school would be more accurate than a base.”

Banseok University Seodaemun-gu Branch.

“… Sinchon Hyundai Department Store is a branch school in Banseokdae Seodaemun-gu?”
“Isn’t it nice? In a catastrophe like this, there will be no more reliable branch school than here.”
“Then, why are you suddenly emphasizing the expression branch school?”

Why, I covet the title of branch school principal because I get some fresh air?

A playful question, slightly tilting his head forward.

In response to my question, Goh Jang-hun smiled mischievously as if he were following along.

“Ah~ Why are you doing this again, President? It’s my job to stick right next to the President.”

Rather than beside it, it’s located a little behind.

As if Goh Jang-hun matched his words and actions, he snuggled up next to me and gave off a sly smile.

It’s also on the side seat a little bit behind.

“Crazy.”
Hehe— more than that, what should the Search Team do after they open a branch school in the department store, President?”

A branch school of Banseok University built on a landmark that is too special to be a secret base.

After briefly establishing the branch school, I answered Koh Goh, who asked what to do first.

“I should start by saying hello.”
“… Yes?”

I lifted my head and looked at the building forest in Seodaemun-gu.

“But now that we are neighbors, shouldn’t we at least give rice cakes?”

So that-

“That nasty bastard comes to the housewarming party with a roll of toilet paper.”

He stared at the tallest skyscraper in Seodaemun-gu and smiled.
