Chapter 2400 – 2400. Eternal Eden

The building collapses from the impact of the explosion. The good news is that it didn’t completely collapse and it wasn’t a high-rise building. The pillars and walls of the building held up because they were built strong.

‘It’s fortunate that the missile didn’t hit us directly.’

I look at Na Chaeyoung, who I am holding in my arms. Both eyes are closed tightly. The table blocked the falling stones, so there didn’t seem to be any injuries. Choi Hye-jin and Irina are also fine. As awakened women, you don’t need to worry too much as they have greater physical abilities than ordinary humans.

“What kind of shit is this? “I came here for no reason.”

“Eugene! Are you okay?!”

Hyejin Choi and Irina approached. Of course, it was okay. Na Chaeyoung also opened her eyes and raised her body. She seemed nervous, and her lips were trembling. Well, it was natural for Na Chaeyoung to have a style of moving herself.

“What should I do? Anyone with an opinion?”

“Can’t we just destroy everything?”

“Well, can’t we hijack the helicopter and run away? Isn’t it okay because a missile could come flying? .”

Choi Hye-jin was ignorant, and Irina wanted to avoid battle.

Na Chaeyoung said, shaking off the gray stone dust from her clothes and hair.

“You have to understand the situation first. Who do you think the enemy is?”

“Isn’t it North Korea? This is North Korea… As soon as the Korean president entered the building, a missile flew as if it had been waiting.”

That was Irina’s opinion. Now that I think about it, it seems that most of the incoming missiles fell towards the Korean president. She couldn’t be sure because she didn’t look closely, but she felt it.

“No. Eugene said it. North Korea wants a ceasefire. Of course, Korea doesn’t want war either. So this attack was by a force other than South Korea or North Korea. Eugene. “Do you remember the mutant attack that happened three days ago?”

“It’s strange if you don’t remember. Could this be the work of the guy who controlled them?”

“I think that possibility is high. The timing is perfect for a coincidence. Then maybe there are two goals. One is to ruin the meeting. The one is… It’s you. Seong Yu-jin. Seong Yu-jin, an awakened person with healing abilities. Any force with a certain amount of money would want to have you, even if it means paying a big price.”

“… At least not in Korea. I’m a doctor. Where do you think you are?”

“USA. Most players will choose America. To that extent, it can be said to have more power than any other country. It’s probably not the US government’s doing. It’s too crazy to say that. “I think some force in the U.S. May have done this.”

It was then. Hyejin Choi pointed beyond the collapsed wall with one hand.

“Why are there cobras crawling?!”

Hundreds of cobra mutants are crawling from nowhere. The size was slightly larger than that of a large dog. Its shape is similar to that of a cobra, but its back is full of thorns like a hedgehog.

“… It’s not a cobra, it’s a hedgehog variant. To be exact, an artificially created mutant. Najahog. They have very little intelligence and can be easily controlled with little training. Although it is weaker than naturally occurring mutants… The thorns are poisonous, and you can shoot them out with your tongue.”

“What is the power of the poison? “If you get hit, you won’t die right away, right?”

“Not that strong. In the case of humans, adults can survive addiction for about 2 hours. It might be a little painful.”

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!

A gunshot rings out.

It was a sound from inside, not outside.

“You damn bastard! “Take a look at the spicy taste of the Republic!!”

North Korean soldiers were sharpening their guns. The gun worked. A bullet entered or penetrated Najahog’s torso. However, Najahog does not stop. They had to be shot at least 30 times in their torsos before they fell to the floor and wriggled.

Na Chae-young looked at him and explained while moaning.

“Najahog is a biological weapon. It’s designed for combat. Najahog cannot feel pain. If you want to kill him, the best way is to aim for his head.”

“I’m a doctor. There’s a drone you brought with you. “Can you operate it now?”

“No. The signal is out. I think there’s a communications jammer. Since there is battle AI, you can run automatic battle mode, but… “You have to go and do it yourself.”

The plan to escape by flying using a combat drone was eliminated.

“… I can’t help it. If their goal is me, I have no choice but to become bait. In the meantime, you guys secure the helicopters and drones. “The helicopter we took landed on the other side, so it should be fine now.”

“This is crazy. “You don’t know what the other person has prepared, but you want to be baited?”

“I’m a doctor. Trust me. If the helicopter is destroyed here, and we become isolated, it will be over. We must avoid the worst.”

“… The worst case scenario here is if you die or get kidnapped.”

“Know. Don’t worry about that. There’s no way I could fall for those guys.”

I made the best judgment.

At least that’s what I thought.

‘Jaeji Kim and the President of Korea… Did you lose it? If both of them are alive, there will be no problem… If one side dies, the Korean War is almost certain. I’d rather have both of them alone. If not… Should I go and kill him myself?’

I grabbed the equipment in the corner. The ceiling collapsed and was crushed by stone, but most of the equipment was intact.

He wore a combat helmet. Although it cannot function properly due to communication interference, it has a gas-proof effect and filters out dust and smoke. It was easier to breathe than with my clothes off.

“Goes. See you later. Hyejin Choi, Irina. “I will definitely protect the doctor.”

I ran outside through the collapsed wall.

Pajijik.

Electric current flows through the pure white blade. The blade shone silver and attracted the attention of those around it.

The mutant Najahogs around me all turn towards me. They reacted at the same timing, as if their minds were connected.

‘It’s clear that someone is controlling it.’

He is a type of psychic ability. However, he is a person who specializes in controlling mutants, not people.

It will be controlled directly, so it will be hidden in the cloth.

‘Find him and kill him. You don’t need to look at it. Even if there are only corpse fragments, it can be brought back to life through recovery. You can dig up the information slowly later.’

Dozens of Najahogs tilt their heads back slightly. It was a preparatory move to shoot out poisonous thorns. I ran to the back of the building. A poisonous thorn flies out and gets stuck in the snow-covered ground. Nothing touched my body.

‘Lee Yeon-hee… You’ll be safe. Because she’s not an ordinary woman.’

Dozens of Najahogs are chasing after me. As expected, their goal was me.

‘It’s inconvenient that the minimap is not supported due to communication issues.’

Thunder current, electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves spread in all directions. Information from 30 meters around was felt in real time. But the information was completely lacking. 30 m was too short. Even in reality, the range of electromagnetic waves is over 500 m. Feeling frustrated, I head to a trail that is rarely popular.

Doo doo doo doo.

A North Korean military helicopter flies from the sky. Communication is still down. He realized that the meeting had turned upside down and was dispatched. Armed soldiers descended from military helicopters and began to battle the mutants.

As I was running towards the walkway, I stopped. I could feel the presence of enemies surrounding me through electromagnetic waves.

‘A total of 8 people. They are all armed with bulletproof suits and assault rifles. He even wore a combat helmet like me.’

They appeared with guns pointed at me. I noticed that their armament was much better than that of the Holy SS.

“What power are you?”

“Whoa, whoa. “Calm down.”

A man came forward. He’s the only one here without a helmet. Compared to others, his armament was poor. He didn’t even have a gun.

He was a white man with orange hair.

“Are you American?”

“Okay. “I came to see you from America.”

“The US government is crazy.”

“My name is Marcus. Unfortunately, I’m not from the government. Now you have two choices. One is to quietly follow us to America. I will treat you like an honored guest. Of course, I will also guarantee your life afterward. You will be able to enjoy privileges and a comfortable life in a dying world. “Nothing is free in this world, so all you have to do is do your duty.”

“I’m curious for no reason. What is the second option?”

“Being beaten and dragged away like a dog. There is no comfortable life. Slavery is confirmed. “I don’t have to tell you which one is correct, right?”

“Okay. The second is correct. “If only you could drag me along.”

As soon as he lifted the cutlassfish, Marcus shouted.

“Shoot!”

Bullets rain from all directions.

Thunder current, electromagnetic membrane.

Even if I was weaker in this world than in reality, I could stop a bullet with an electromagnetic shield. But not now. The bullet penetrates the electromagnetic membrane. The power was weakened, but it reached my body.

It wasn’t penetrated. It felt like I was being hit with a fist. The problem is that there were dozens of bullets. A man dies if he is hit dozens of times with his fist. I fell into a snowy field.

Marcus came in front of me. I used silent recovery.

“Luckily you didn’t die. Ah, looking at your eyes, you seem to be curious as to why bullets work. I knew you worked with electricity. So I prepared special bullets that are not particularly affected by electricity. “It’s a special bullet similar to a rubber bullet.”

Marcus took a syringe out of his pocket. It contained green liquid. Probably an anesthetic. Their biggest goal is to capture me alive.

“When you wake up, a new life will unfold. It may be a somewhat terrible life, but… What can I do? It’s the life you chose, so accept it.”

Marcus grabs me by the collar. I swung the knife at him. The target is the neck.

Gang.

A translucent energy barrier appeared in front of Marcus’ neck.

‘Is he capable? I had expected this from the time the armament was poor.’

I push away the hand holding my collar and widen the distance. They pointed guns at me again.

Thunder current, electromagnetic membrane.

The power of the bullet was reduced with an electromagnetic membrane, and only vital points were avoided with minimal movement. It’s okay to hit your arms, shoulders and legs. It was worth holding on.

“Damage! Increase the distance! The use of grenades is permitted!”

I approached the soldiers before they could react to his commands. The walking method shone.

“I’m so slow I should die.”

Swing the cutlassfish sword. The tight suit the soldier wore seemed to block the blade, but when he applied force, the blade cut through the suit and dug into it.

“Keuuuuu! Well, it must have a stab-proof function… !”

“My knife is a bit special. In this state, it can even cut through steel.”

Even if you can’t cut thick steel, you can cut through a bulletproof suit.

Suddenly!

‘For now, just one guy.’

My senses catch something flying towards me. It’s too big and slow to be called a bullet. It was a grenade. He picked up the body of the guy he had just killed and used it as a shield.

Bang!

The corpse shield could not block all the impact. His battle helmet was broken, and his left arm was tattered. It was more powerful than a regular grenade.

I started running while using recovery. Bullets rain down. It was fortunate that it was a walking trail. I was able to take cover with a tree.

‘If you stop, you die.’

I killed them one by one while running. I didn’t care if I got hit by a bullet. Because I just need to recover.

Suddenly!

I kill another guy.

“This monster!!”

The soldier next to the dead soldier shouted and took out a grenade from his chest. It was no ordinary grenade. A mechanical grenade with flashing lights.

The important thing is that it is mechanical.

Pajijik.

I returned the grenade that was flying at me back to the station using electromagnetic force. The soldier frowned as if he was surprised. I couldn’t see his face because of the helmet… He must be shocked.

Kwaaaaang!

The grenade exploded and flames erupted. The flames soared for an instant, burning the surroundings and dying out.

‘Did they make a firebomb?’

It seemed to be a prototype and not a complete weapon.

Something is flying towards me. A slash made of translucent energy. I kicked the tree next to me and jumped up to avoid the slash.

‘Marcus. Is it his ability? Ability to manipulate energy? Looking at the tail he uses, he seems like a no-nonsense guy.’

All the soldiers were killed, and only Marcus remained.

Mate!

Marcus bumps his palms together. Immediately after, invisible walls appear on both sides of me and close in on me in an instant. Before that, he kicked the ground forward and rushed forward, stabbing Marcus in the abdomen.

“How did you avoid it when you couldn’t see it? “Is it a coincidence?”

“Even if you can’t see it, you can feel it. And it’s obvious that you haven’t used your strength. “At least do some training.”

“… “No one taught me how to train superpowers.”

Twisted the knife A groan of pain came from Marcus’ mouth. I asked him as I glanced at the Najahogs surrounding me.

“Where is the guy controlling the mutants?”

“Do you think I’ll tell you? You will die here with me. Oh, I’ll tell you something good before I die. We will retrieve your body and create a clone. You will know the reason without me having to tell you. Come on, let’s go to hell together. “I’m so glad I’m not alone.”

Dozens of Najahogs open their mouths and shoot out poisonous thorns at once. There was nowhere to escape. Puff, puff, puff! Dozens of poisonous thorns came out and stuck into Marcus’ body.

‘Hmm. He didn’t die instantly. Should I just pretend to be dead? ‘Maybe someone will come to collect my body.’

Sigh. Seueuugh.

The nearby Najahogs disperse. And about 3 minutes later, someone came out of the bushes, looked at the dead Marcus for a moment, and then put his arms around me.

Deeply.

I stabbed the knife into the guy’s solar plexus.

“You idiot. I should have checked first to see if he was really dead. No. Does this mean that my acting was that good?”

“I can’t believe I survived after being hit by dozens of Najahog’s poisonous thorns… !?”

“Because my recovery ability is rather good. Rather, I’m looking forward to seeing the true identity of you guys who did this.”
