Chapter 2235 – 2235. Gyeongseong 2033
Gyeongseong Governor Lee Wan-nong was in a state of death recently.
‘You damn Boxer bastard. Damn Katsuna Murakano… !’
Kim Dok-Nip’s plan to completely eradicate the Boxer Rebellion failed when he was discovered by the Boxer Rebellion. The good news was that more than half of the Boxer leaders and members were dead, and the remaining Boxer members were scattered. There will be no activities of the Boxer Rebellion for the time being.
The problem is that Boxer members Seong Yu-jin and Murakano Katsunaga committed terrorism on the mainland of the Japanese Empire. I didn’t just commit it. He massacred 116 people from the Chinese Empire of Japan and killed the prime minister’s lieutenant. More than 1,000 citizens were caught up and killed in the chaos that occurred when he fled.
The Prime Minister revealed that the person who died at the Schotz Center was a double agent. The people of the empire were angry with the prime minister. Did you send a double to that important position? However, there was nothing the Japanese people could do. Because the Prime Minister is already in complete control of the Japanese Empire.
The prime minister also heightened the war mood by mentioning the conflict with Nazi Germany. The Prime Minister began to control the Japanese Empire in the name of war. He declared martial law. The people of the empire no longer dare to criticize the prime minister. If he criticized the prime minister, he could become a traitor and disappear from this world without even a rat or a bird knowing.
Naturally, Gyeongseong was also bound to be affected. In particular, the prime minister gave orders to Lee Wan-nong, the governor of Gyeongseong. Circumstances have been discovered that Katsunaga Murakano entered the Korean peninsula illegally, so he must be found and killed. If he fails to kill Katsuna Murakano, he will have to take responsibility.
Of course, responsibility was everything. Most of the executives of the Government General, including Lee Wan-nong, will lose their jobs. Physically.
It won’t end there. Because this incident has shaken the Prime Minister’s support. The Chinese people whose family members died will want bloody revenge, and the Prime Minister has no choice but to retaliate. The Japanese Empire will pour out its bloody fury on Gyeongseong.
“The Boxer Rebellion, those damned things are trying to destroy Korea! It’s a full moon! Only 15 days left! We must find Seong Yu-jin and kill him! The fate of Gyeongseong and Korea depends on us!”
It was time for Lee Wan-nong to urge his subordinates.
Kwahahah Ah.
The Gyeongseong Governor’s Residence shook. Earthquake? No. That’s because there was a huge explosion.
“Your Excellency the Governor! The official residence has been attacked! It’s a missile! The main gate of the official residence was blown away!”
Lee Wan Nong distorted his face.
Lee Wan-nong is the main enemy of independence activists. The moment he let down his guard even a little, he became a target for terrorists, so he paranoidly defended the governor’s residence. In particular, a lot of money, time, and manpower were put into the main gate. Because it is the most important place. However, the front door was blown away by a single missile. More than 10 elite soldiers would have died.
“If it’s a missile big enough to blow down the front door… It must be a missile worthy of special management, right? Where on earth did it come from?”
“It flew from the roof of a building 2 km away!”
“Rooftop of a building? That doesn’t make sense! Who on earth… !”
Kim Dok-Nip, who had been quiet until now, stepped forward.
“Dismissal. Calm down. Rather, it is a good thing. A missile is rammed into the governor’s residence. There’s only one guy worth doing that crazy thing. Seong Yu-jin. “This guy is targeting you.”
“That guy? How did he get the missile?”
“Didn’t I tell you that Germany was among those who supported the Boxer Rebellion? “The entrance has been opened, so the Boxers will come.”
“Nazi! They deserve it! Declare a state of emergency! The Governor General’s Guard kills the intruders!”
Kim Independence stood up.
“Where are you going?!”
“Okay? You’re not going to betray me, are you? Just as you betrayed the Boxer Rebellion.”
“Today I will prove how true my loyalty is.”
Kim Dok-Nip went out. Lee Wan-nong was not trustworthy at all.
“Contact the mainland and ask for support. The opponent even used missiles. They may have more weapons than that.”
“Yes. “Your Excellency.”
After some time, his subordinate reported in confusion.
“Go, Your Excellency. They say it is difficult to provide support right now from the mainland.”
“What? Did I convey the current situation correctly? “There was a missile stuck in the governor’s residence!”
“It is said that the German fleet has appeared near Taiwanese waters! All facilities of the Japanese Empire are heading to Taiwan!”
“Damn…”
The German fleet appeared in an empire already sensitive to war? My eyes couldn’t help but be drawn in that direction.
It was then. Suddenly, the fluorescent lights on the ceiling turned off and it became dark. The subordinate who was sitting in front of the monitor and typing on the keyboard jumped up in embarrassment.
“The main system at the Governor’s Palace is down! All security systems, including automatic turrets, would have been disabled!”
Lee Wan-nong’s expression hardened.
“Can’t the main system be restored?”
“I need to know the cause… It’s not possible right now. It would be better to run away first…”
“Escape? Don’t be funny. There is no place in Gyeongseong that is as safe as this place. I will trust and wait here for the Governor General’s Defense Force. The governor’s guard will kill the intruders.”
• • •
A missile flew from the roof of the building and crashed down. Widow, I, and the sensor watched near the governor’s residence and started moving.
Now that Germany has kept its promise, it is time to take the head of the Gyeongseong Governor. It would be easier to destroy the governor’s residence with missiles, but… Anyway, that was impossible. It is said that those missiles were brought in with great difficulty.
“Let’s go. “I tell you in advance, I will kill the governor.”
The sensor growled and said.
“I will kill Kim Dok-Nip. As his granddaughter, I must avenge his grandfather.”
Widow, who was usually relaxed and gentle, was not here. His eyes are shining as he lives like a female leopard facing his prey.
“I have bad feelings towards those bastards too, right? So, the faster one is the winner.”
I ran to the front door, which had been shattered by a missile. They were startled and ran after me.
“You bastard! “I will kill the governor!”
“I can’t give in this time either!”
The automatic turret installed near the governor’s residence rose up.
[Hacking was successful.]
[You can hack the main system of the Governor’s Residence for 1 hour and 30 minutes.]
The main system was immediately taken down. The muzzle of the automatic turret that was aimed at us falls down helplessly. There was no need to search through surveillance cameras to find the governor’s location. The governor’s location is guessed, and there are sensors on our side.
“Three people in front. Hiding behind the wall.”
Said the sensor. I used acceleration to run. The soldiers hiding behind the wall raise their eyes in surprise. My blade grazed their necks faster than they could aim their rifles. Three people fall down in an instant. We ran to the next place without even paying attention.
Downing of the main system caused confusion to the enemy. Since communication between soldiers was impossible, the enemy’s response was also slow. We ran forward, killing the enemies we encountered.
“Seong Yujin… !”
A man with a knife in his hand called my name. It was a voice full of hatred. The young man’s eyes burned with anger.
I threw the dagger at him. The man swung his sword and struck the dagger away. It wasn’t something I was talking about.
“What are you?”
“Are you now pretending not to know? My whole life was ruined because of you. Even if you hadn’t killed the Chinese people in Tokyo… A flowery path would have spread out in front of me!!”
Why all of a sudden?
“I go first. “Brothers, let’s resolve this well.”
“It’s a family matter, so I won’t get involved.”
Sensor and Widow left me and ran away.
Sibling? Family?
‘Ah. That’s my younger brother. The younger brother of the original protagonist. I was confused because it looked a little different from the original. If you look closely, it looks a bit like my face.’
It was the target of revenge for the original protagonist. Because he is the one who killed the main character’s parents. In this world, I would say he was the one who killed my parents. Because the setting was just that, I wasn’t particularly impressed.
What was its name? Was it Seongju Castle?
“It’s been a while, you idiot. Have you been eating well and living well? Why did you appear in front of me? “I will live quietly in the countryside.”
“My dream was to achieve success in the Japanese Empire. For him, they killed his parents and sold his family. Even if you hadn’t blocked my path… !”
“Baby. As expected of a man who committed adultery, he shows no respect for his brother. Just die.”
It was annoying to even talk to each other. He grabbed his sword and charged.
“Seong Yujin! “I will cut off your head and offer it to the Prime Minister!”
Seongjuseong doesn’t run away either, but rushes in. Just before their swords cross, Seong Ju-seong accelerates. As soon as I sensed that, I also accelerated.
Clash swords in an accelerated world. The blades met and sparks flew. The flames fell slowly, and in the meantime, sword strikes were exchanged three times.
‘This guy’s sword skills are quite good?’
In terms of pure sword skills, he was superior to anyone else who had fought in this world.
‘Still, it’s not enough for me.’
He throws away his sword and uses footwork to fake it and engage in psychological warfare. Every time he was caught and took a defensive stance, he laughed and retreated. The guy’s face is distorted.
After repeating it a few times, the poisoned guy chose to attack instead of defend even if he faked it.
‘I got caught again.’
If it were me, I would have widened the distance, pulled out my pistol, and attacked him. Otherwise, you can fake it.
I approached the guy. I narrowly avoided an obvious sword strike and plunged the knife into the guy’s chest.
“Gagging!”
“It looks like you’ve had some sword training… It doesn’t work for me. Goodbye, little brother.”
“Fuck… Losing again…”
With a confirmed kill, he cut off Seong Ju-seong’s head and followed Widow and Sensor.
The first one I encountered was Widow. She was fighting one-on-one with Kim Dok-Nip in a narrow hallway. Of course, the advantage is Widow. Before I came to the Boxer Rebellion, the strongest person in the Boxer Rebellion was Widow. As a bonus, her environment, which was a hallway with limited space, was much more advantageous to her.
“Seong Yu-jin!”
Kim Dok-Nip looks at me and bursts into laughter. He aimed a pistol at me and was tied up by a flying wire and taken away.
“Seong Yujin! Leave this to me and go to the sensor! The sensor is overly excited. Anyway, the governor can’t be alone… Sensors can be dangerous. Go to the sensor! Come on!”
“Okay!”
I passed them by.
Widow is not worried. Kim Dok-Nip beats Widow? Wow. The current Widow will be stronger than the original Widow.
