Chapter 2401 – 2401. Eternal Eden
Looking at Najahog’s scattering, it was clear that this was the one controlling the mutants. He once cut his hair with Marcus.
‘Take it to Seongak Elementary School, recover it, and dig up information.’
The bodies of other soldiers are also visible. We can’t cut up their bodies and take them all. Because the amount of luggage increases. You can resurrect with just one finger… It takes much more effort than reviving based on the head.
‘Just by looking at them, they are the lowest level. Even if you take them and interrogate them, you won’t know anything.’
The reason for taking the head is that it is more efficient to use recovery based on the head among the corpse pieces.
I was about to take the two heads and go when I felt a vibration from the ground. It feels different to say that earthquakes have occurred frequently recently.
‘Something is coming this way from the ground.’
Feeling the vibrations getting closer, I climbed a nearby tree. The roots of the tree are quite deep and tough. It would be difficult to move freely underground.
‘The best way to attack worm-type monsters when they appear is to attack them.’
I’ve faced him a few times in real life. It is a monster that is divided into grades depending on its type, but it is not a difficult monster to deal with if you follow the strategy.
As expected, it popped out from the ground. But it wasn’t a monster. It was a machine. A robot in the shape of a mole.
The robot opened its mouth wide, its eye-like red sensors glowing ominously. The muzzle popped out and spewed fire. As soon as I saw the muzzle, I jumped and struck the robot with lightning.
Kwaang!
The robot pauses for a moment, as if it has taken precautions against electricity, and pours out bullets. It was a special bullet that easily pierced the tree trunk. The moment it touches it, it creates a small shock wave. It is an amazing technology in many ways.
‘Keep falling.’
Bang bang bang!
Three thunderbolts fell in succession. The robot’s red sensor tasted and stopped. Pop! The robot emitted smoke along with a small explosion.
‘Is it broken? Anyway, it would be helpful to bring this too. It’s an unexpected benefit.’
I approached the robot. Considering that the robot appeared late, it seems that there was originally no intention to deploy it. It feels like he was watching from a distance and came closer when he thought it wouldn’t work.
‘Did you see me taking these guys’ heads? Hmm. I don’t think so. Communication is still down. It doesn’t mean that communication can only be used from here to there.’
However, there is a huge difference in technology. If you had that kind of technology, you wouldn’t have bothered to attack in this way.
‘Damn. There is no inventory, so I have to carry it myself.’
The scattered Najahogs were also a problem. As I looked, it was attacking the surroundings indiscriminately. It seems like it will take time to deal with them one by one.
‘Ah-oh. Why is this can so heavy? I think it will be 80 kg.’
I feel sad for no reason because I am struggling under this weight.
It was a time when I was moving and resting repeatedly. Three familiar-looking combat drones flew from the sky. The gun on the drone is quite threatening.
The sensor takes a picture of my face. The combat helmet had a bare face because the broken helmet was thrown away.
-Check the appearance. We recognized Seong Yu-jin, the representative of Seongak Elementary School.
The AI was a cold female voice. My tastes were included. If possible, a woman’s voice is better. Even though it was a combat AI, I didn’t want to hear a man’s voice.
“It just worked out. Take some of this and go. “It was so heavy that I couldn’t move much.”
The fact that the battle drone has come this far means that all aggro has been focused on me as planned, so Na Chae-young and I will be safe.
-Loading weight is exceeded. This aircraft can load up to 80 kg, and the current loadable weight is 30 kg.
The inside of a combat drone is loaded with bullets or bombs. There is a limit to the loading weight.
“Then at least lift this head.”
-This aircraft has no hands, so it cannot be lifted.
“AI talks back…”
I had to hang my head on a combat drone. That too was work.
-… I’m glad you seem to be okay. Have you found out who the enemies are?
Na Chae-young’s voice was heard from the combat drone’s speaker.
“What. Can you communicate?”
-Just connected. How is the situation?
I explained what just happened. Then, a sigh is heard beyond the speaker.
-Wait there. I will take people there.
“What? “It’s better for me to go.”
-I heard the enemy soldiers had bullet-proof suits, combat helmets, and special weapons? Of course, I have to take care of everything. We have to retrieve it first before North Korea retrieves it. We don’t have enough manpower to move on our own, so we’ll have to ask for help from the National Security Agency. I guess I should share the skills I gained… Still, we benefit.
“I don’t know anything else, but this robot cannot be shared. Because it’s the trophy I caught.”
-I was thinking that too. Because really important things shouldn’t be shared. So, take good care of that robot.
I could feel the desire in Na Chaeyoung’s voice. It seems that he became motivated after discovering advanced technology.
“The current situation? North Korean leader and South Korean president. Which of the two died? Looking at how quiet they are, are they both dead?”
-It looks like he wants to die. If that’s the case, it’s unfortunate news for you. Both are alive.
“… Didn’t the missiles fall concentrated on the direction where the Korean president was? But he’s alive?”
Honestly, I think it would be difficult for me to survive if those missiles flew in.
-It looks like there were many awakened people escorting the president. I’m sure it’s what the woman said. They say there was no damage to the area where Jaeji Kim was. This room was built from the beginning in preparation for a missile attack? He’s a guy who cares terribly about his own safety.
Both are safe. It can be said that the worst has been avoided.
At least we’ll know that each other is not the culprit. The two countries are already on the verge of war. If you wanted war, there was no need for talks. Building a cause? There has already been enough justification.
“I guess I’ll have to hand over the equipment to the South Korean government and North Korea because it’s their corpses.”
-That’s the best way to avoid sparks flying among us. Still, the robot doesn’t work. Hide it as much as possible.
“Even if I tell you to hide it… “It’s hard to hide because it’s so big.”
-They insist it’s our robot.
“Okay.”
Soon, National Intelligence Service agents in black suits and North Korean soldiers in military uniforms appeared and began to settle the situation. The action was quick as if an order had already come from above.
I sat down on the robot and watched them. Lee Yeon-hee comes to my side.
“Mr. Eugene. “As expected, you are safe.”
“Lee Yeon-hee. “What happens after this?”
“Mr. President and Jaeji Kim wanted to keep this incident buried, but it was impossible to make it like it never happened because the reporters had already written the article. They plan to announce that it was the work of terrorists who wanted a Korean War. We haven’t found out the identity of the enemy yet… These are probably the people who actually want the Korean War. Perhaps North Korea hoped to use up its nuclear weapons in this Korean War.”
“You already figured it out?”
“It’s still speculation. I’ll let you know as soon as I have solid information. And it seems to me that the real target was Eugene.”
I never thought I would guess this far, even though it would be far short of the information I have. As expected, she was a great woman.
“What about the meeting? Will it be delayed?”
“No. It’s scheduled to start in 2 hours. Since we have suffered a terrorist attack, we cannot retreat any further. That’s just a matter of succumbing to terrorism or something like that. Even more so in perilous times like now.”
“I want to meet the President and take a picture. Is that possible?”
“Sure. “Your Excellency is also looking forward to meeting Mr. Eugene.”
After everything was settled, I was able to meet the President of Korea. He was a man in his 50s who took good care of himself. It looked sad. He seems like an old man commonly seen in the neighborhood. However, contrary to his appearance, his actions are quite unconventional.
“Haha. We finally get to meet the hero of Korea. “This is Jung Woo-hyun.”
“This is Seong Yu-jin. It is an honor to meet the President of Korea.”
We held each other’s hands with smiling faces.
Click! Snap!
The reporters next to us pressed the camera shutters.
‘Are there two years left in the president’s term?’
The world is being destroyed in real time. Are you coping well? That sounds funny. Humans are helpless in the face of natural disasters.
A new ecosystem will be formed in places beyond the reach of humans, and mutants and variants will become stronger day by day.
The Republic of Korea two years from now will be in a much more serious situation than it is now. Not only I but also Na Chae-young, the player, thinks so.
‘They will extend the term of office and sit down as president because the Republic of Korea is dangerous. So we have to kill the president before then.’
Before power becomes entrenched.
After taking pictures, the President entered the waiting room. She didn’t make any conversation. I don’t know what the president’s intentions are. What is certain is that he is not as ordinary as Jaeji Kim.
Afterward, the summit ended successfully. We took a group photo and enjoyed lunch. My girls in the waiting room. I tasted the famous Pyongyang cold noodles at the meal venue.
‘It’s delicious. I almost want to take the chef with me.’
Afterward, chat time.
I was popular both in Korea and North Korea. To be exact, there were many people in power who coveted my abilities. The fact that I not only have combat abilities but also healing abilities has already spread among those in power.
I ignored their request and took a picture of their face.
Afterward, we returned to Seongak Elementary School around 10 p.M.
• • •
“Ahhhhh!
Jo Jung-hong screams. I plunge the small chainsaw into his abdomen, cutting and churning his internal organs into a mess.
As a player, he was an esper with the ability to control mutants.
When he died eight times, he blew everything he knew.
“Stop!! Gmaaaaan! I told you everything I know! “I swear loyalty, so please save me!!”
“I’ve only died 15 times now. How can I trust your loyalty? And I don’t need people like you.”
“Then, please kill me!!”
“Haha. Nope? “You will pay the price for trying to kill me.”
Weeeee.
A small chainsaw turns making a bloody sound.
Marcus, an orange-haired white man sitting next to him, had his limbs cut off and hanging on the wall. He died unconscious. Of course, I plan to bring him back to life, dig up information from him again, torture him, and then kill him.
They are the ones who killed me and tried to make clones from the pieces of the corpse, so I have to kill them at least 100 times.
‘I’m also practicing my abilities. Each time you use the ability, it gets stronger, albeit little by little. As for recovery, the speed of recovery is accelerating. As a bonus, the amount you can recover when you recover the same stamina.’
After finishing the interrogation, he left them dead in the dungeon and headed to the lab.
Na Chaeyoung was disassembling and examining the robot she had just acquired.
“You’ve arrived just in time. Several parts were damaged to the point of being unusable. Please restore it.”
I took the broken part she held out and used her recovery. My recovery also applied to non-living substances.
Na Chae-young smiles and nods her head after receiving the repaired part.
“As always, your abilities are deceptive. So what did you come for?”
I flopped down on the empty chair.
“We need to discuss the future. Decide how to deal with those guys from Signals or something. And I want to kill the president.”
“…”
Na Chaeyoung’s expression turned sour in an instant.
