Chapter 568 – Jang Sanbeom -3-

Lee Choa was embarrassed.

‘It was a place with a lot of sightings, but…’

Anyway, this number is strange.

How can so many mountain lions nest in the mountains so close to the city center?

‘···No way?’

It’s dark under the lamp. As I try to think of it, there is an area that immediately seems suspicious.

Mines are buried near the top of Jangsan Mountain, so deviating from the paved path is absolutely not allowed.

Therefore, even though the surrounding apartments are dense, there are often places where people’s feet and eyes do not reach for a long time.

It is a mountain where leaving the hiking trail is strictly prohibited, to the extent that warnings are issued against entering the mountain on days when lightning strikes.

‘This absolutely requires military help.’

Considering the location, even if you are far off the hiking trail, the bottom of the mountain is a city area.

It is dangerous to leave a group of mountain lions unattended.

After informing the special department of the fact.

You must use overwhelming physical power to blow away the accumulated ghost energy.

If they listen to Lee Cho-ah’s story, even the high-ranking people in the special department will be willing to raise their hands.

Of course.

It will happen if you get out alive.

‘How many?’

Ichoa held her pistol and rolled her eyes.

Jangsanbeom spreads around as if surrounding.

An eerie light flashes between the trees.

There was no time to leisurely count the numbers, but it was certain that it was more than the number of bullets that passed through Atra’s hands.

– Kak, Kaga God!!!

– Mom! Mom!

– Meow! Also, run away…!?

– Wow ──!!!

Jangsanbeom was making various noises and disturbing his mind.

My mind turns pale due to tension, my mouth becomes dry, and a sweet smell comes out.

She wanted to visually check Hwang Dong-hyeon’s condition behind her and give him an order.

If I took my gaze away and turned my head carelessly, it seemed like Jangsanbeom would kick the tree and run at me.

“Huh…! Huh…!”

Hwang Dong-hyeon’s disheveled breathing leaks out from behind.

At the same time, the crackling dirt felt like I was unconsciously taking a step backwards.

“Hwang Dong-hyeon.”

“!”

“Calm down. Did you see the speed earlier? Wait until you see an opportunity. If you turn your back now, you will die.”

At Lee Cho-ah’s words, Hwang Dong-hyeon stopped stretching his legs behind him.

“Black, dark…!”

I barely came to my senses.

The sound of whimpering entered Lee Cho-ah’s ears, as if the fear and horror accumulated in the grim reality at hand had burst out.

– Kekekeket!!!

– My stomach hurts! My stomach hurts!

– I have to report it!

– Kkeigik! Sigh!

When Hwang Dong-hyeon bursts into tears, a group of Jangsanbeoms let out bizarre laughter.

The distance is slowly narrowing.

Lee Choa was observing the scene as calmly as possible.

‘···I’m on guard.’

Although they have an extremely frivolous attitude, these mountain criminals are not just a bunch of distracted ghosts.

He rolls his eyes here and there and scans his entire body as if he is trying to find out how his compatriot died.

‘To get out alive… You must first win the battle of wits.’

Even beings that are feared by humans feel fear.

Ghosts also have their own tendencies and even communicate with each other.

Slam!

Lee Cho-a concentrated her energy to the point that her eyes stung and pointed the muzzle of her gun.

The target is Jang Sanbeom, who came closest.

If there are wary Jangsanbeoms, there are also cruel ones who look down on humans and treat them like toys.

– What? Kick…! Ki kick!

The behavior of Jangsanbeom, who shows the blood stuck to his toenails as if bragging.

Lee Choa pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Taang!

“···.”

The moment a gunshot rings out and the bullet hits, he dies instantly.

It wasn’t stuck in the head or mouth.

Nevertheless, Jang Sanbeom was not even allowed time to scream.

Passsss───.

The pure white ghost falls down like a doll whose strings have been cut, turning into ashes and scattering.

– !?!?

Confusion spread among the group of Jangsanbeoms who were watching.

Even ghosts feel afraid of losing everything to an incomprehensible phenomenon.

Let Ichoa flick her pistol to find her next target.

The approaching mountain lions are startled and hide behind the trees.

‘Good. If only I could leave like this…’

There are 10 shots left.

Ichoa took a step back without lowering his gun.

Lee Cho-a, standing next to Hwang Dong-hyeon, whose legs were shaking, whispered.

“Can you move?”

“Whoosh…!”

“Stop crying. Can you move?”

“I don’t know…”

Hwang Dong-hyeon, who is no different from a rookie, is at a level where he can exorcise nameless ghosts even if he uses mystical powers.

It is impossible to buy time by targeting Jangsanbeom alone, and to be honest, it is a hindrance right now.

“Hwang Dong-hyeon.”

“Black…!”

“Run away. As fast as you can.”

“···Seo, senior!?”

There is no chance other than now that long-term criminals are on guard with their guns.

“Never look back and descend in a straight line.”

“Okay, I’ll go down and report to the special department…”

The moment Hwang Dong-hyeon turned around with a decision.

Something flew into Ichoa’s path that she couldn’t get her hands on.

Bah!

A stone thrown with a hook-like front foot.

Hwang Dong-hyeon, who was hit in the back of the head by a stone thrown by Jang San-beom, fell to the dirt, bleeding.

“This…!”

The deputy gunner losing consciousness and struggling to breathe.

She pointed her gun at the direction from which the stone came.

– Lord, I don’t want to die…! Don’t do it…!

A woman’s voice coming from the mouth of the targeted Jangsanbeom.

Lee Cho-ah’s impression became even fiercer.

That is the voice of a member who died in the line of duty while on this hunt.

Did you feel that the stone sling was groundbreaking?

This time, stones flew from a different direction.

Swish!

Let Choa Lee gracefully avoid the stones flying through the air.

– Kirut!

– Sigh! Squeak!

How clever and weak these people are.

Hiding behind a tree.

She started throwing stones at Hwang Dong-hyeon, who was lying down.

Sigh!

‘Crazy…!’

Her cursing rose up inside Ichoa.

Ichoa, who shattered the flying stones that surrounded her like a mystery, concentrated not to let go of the pistol in her one hand.

This is her own lifeline.

Between falling stones.

A Jangsan tiger couldn’t stand the tantalizing stalemate and rushed in.

The pure white beast that hit the tree was right in front of us in an instant.

– Kaaaaah!!!

As she reflexively raised her arm, her pitch-black claws dug mercilessly into her skin.

As her bright red blood burst out, a moan escaped from between Lee Cho-ah’s lips.

“Ugh!”

I thought her arm would fly off and the back of her neck would be bitten in one go, but maybe it was because of her strength.

This is a minor injury. However, we cannot be at ease.

‘If you are pushed and fall, you will die…!’

Jang Sanbeom is ready to crush himself with his weight.

Various thoughts cross my mind.

Lee Cho-ah’s light weight inevitably puts him behind Jang San-beom.

She has a gut feeling that if she holds on, her back will bend and break.

But.

If you can handle her center of gravity.

If you imitate the principle of weight by planting your inner energy like a root, the story will be different.

Since I started this job.

No, it may be the first time in her life.

Now, because Ichoah has a desire to live, she finds her breakthrough even before her death.

Boom──!!!

The height of the lower body and the position of the feet learned through hegemony.

As she releases her energy downward, Lee Choa’s center of gravity, which had been falling behind her, returns to its original position.

Next.

Bang!

With the gunshot, the Jangsanbeom that had rushed at Lee Cho-ah dispersed.

“Whoa…! Whoo…!”

Miraculously, every movement was correct.

If the timing had been any slower, the Jangsanbeom’s molars would have touched the neck.

The hand holding the pistol is safe.

However, one of his arms was caught in a claw and the skin was torn.

It’s tingly and numb, but my fingers move and my fists clench.

– Gurgling! Kuruk!

– Blood, blood…!

The eyes of the Jangsan criminals darkened when they saw the wound on the arm.

Even though the other person has fearful means, he faces the fact that he gets hurt like any other human being.

It is now impossible to escape while shooting the liver with a pistol.

‘There are 9 shots left…’

Lee Choa thought.

Could he kill Jang San-beom with his own fist, not a bullet?

Even though it seems like absurd nonsense, it somehow seems possible.

Slam!

Bang! Bang! Taang!

Lee Cho-ah did not spare any effort and pulled the trigger.

– Squeak! Sigh!

– Don’t do it! Don’t do it…!

Lee Cho-ah reduced the number of criminals by pouring out all the remaining bullets in the magazine.

He threw his pistol on the floor and took a stance.

“Fuuuuu…”

I focus on my inner strength and think about the structure of hegemony once again.

I was taught martial arts by Roman only once.

The level of skill is almost non-existent.

Due to inexperience, there will be a gap soon, and there is a high probability that you will die at that moment. Nevertheless, this is the only way.

– Kiaaaaagh!!!

– I’m hungry…!!!

A pistol lying on the floor is a signal.

The belligerent Jangsan criminals in the front row rushed in and Ichoah stretched out her fists at the same time.

Bah!

A fist stuck in a crimson face revealed between white fur.

Ghost energy poured out like blood from the jaws of the Jangsanbeom, but it did not die.

‘Tch…!’

When I tried to do a movement that my body was not used to in an instant, I lacked strength because I could not move my inner energy as I had learned.

Still, I got the hang of the concept of holding on with the lower body.

Even though the three Jangsan tigers push, it just pushes back.

I didn’t fall.

Still, there is no relief.

A crisis that came immediately.

You can see many flying black claws and the maw of a tiger aiming for the nape of the neck.

‘This time…’

More than two arms. What kind of movement should we show to respond?

As my thoughts become entangled, the balance of my body shakes.

Contrary to the exciting start, death is already imminent.

Just as Lee Choa was about to try to headbutt the flying claws.

Peeing!

A sharp sound was heard that froze her whole body.

– Kak···!

– Squeak…!?

Over the body of Jang San-beom, who clings to him and tries to rob him of his life.

A checkerboard-like line appeared, and the ghost’s body broke into pieces and rainwater poured out.

– In an instant, he got out of the cradle and started walking.

A woman’s voice rang, oppressing the gloomy space.

This is not an imitation of Jang Sanbeom. The feeling of weight is different.

It was only then that Lee Cho-ah remembered a voice she remembered hearing somewhere.

‘This voice…!?’

The quiet beauty next to Roman.

Jeez. Jeez. Jeopuk.

Footsteps were heard through the dark shadows.

What Lee Cho-ah sees are three women wearing neat clothes that don’t match the mountain at all.

“As Roman said, there is no experience as great as actual combat.”

“What you say is the truth!”

“Well, thank you for your hard work…!”

When Sister Dritna and Atra appear.

A group of Jangsan tigers all froze like stones.
