Chapter 430 – [What Do You Do in the Rapture? Are You Busy? Can You Help Me?]

The hostile species disintegrated leader and soon flowed into Southeast Asia.

Fortunately, there are only a handful of hostile species that are still trying to cross the sea, so island countries including Indonesia and the Philippines are relatively safe.

But even that was only a temporary measure. After the continent is destroyed, they will be in danger too. It is obvious where those who failed to achieve the purpose of destroying mankind will go.

In any case, most Southeast Asian countries were relatively quicker to deal with than leader. To be precise, it was during the time that leader had earned by collapsing that it was clearly aware of the crisis and built a front under the leadership of the coalition government.

However, even that is only at the level of protecting Southeast Asian countries. Like the previous Egyptian front, they are not trying to buy time by blocking them, but also to prevent them from coming.

From Egypt to the Middle East and back to leader, the European Union to the west, Russia to the north, and the sea to the south, they had limited places to go.

To East Asia in the east, to Korea, where there is an immigration office in Mars, including China, and an allied government.

That made the situation even worse. If it was China in the past, it is highly likely that they would have stopped them by hitting the same man-in-the-middle tactics. Even if it meant sending nukes to their own country, they would have stopped them as much as possible, but… Currently, China is in a state of collapse due to the worst.

The Chinese alliance, which has been divided into dozens, could not easily connect, and at the moment of regret, it devours several countries and attacks with numbers.

Leader and China, the two most populated countries on Earth, collapsed and became their prey. Even if it is just a simple number, it easily exceeds 2 billion, and in fact, the number of hostile species is not that far, but it is certain that it has exceeded 1 billion.

“Aaaaa!!!”

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way!!!! Kuk!!!!”

“Save me! Please! Please give me a ride!!!!”

Evacuation planes and ships leaving China were packed to capacity with the influx of people. In order to save even one more person, they threw away and burned as many unnecessary items as possible, but it was not enough to burn the entire Chinese population.

The number of people who could be saved was at most a handful. And the fate of the rest… Was already decided.

However, it took a lot of time to walk around the vast lands such as leader and China. At least that was the only good news in the current hopeless situation.

If there is a country that can survive to the end in the current situation, it will probably be Australia rather than Korea, or a country on the American continent, including the United States. Because there is no way to cross the Pacific or Atlantic for those who have not yet pioneered sea routes.

Coo coo coo coo cooo coo!!!!!

It was to the point where it felt like there were more enemy species than there were on the ground, watching from the sky the red species that exceeded 1 billion running. Even if they bombarded a country with the momentum to destroy it, they wouldn’t be hit hard, and even if there were 100 million Force users, it was an ignorant number to catch 10 alone.

“It looks like the Chinese army is coming during the Korean War.”

“What’s the use of mentioning a country that has been completely destroyed?

“I’m in charge of the upper reaches of the Tumen River”

“Am I automatically downstream? Do your best.

“I’ll try my best”

Korea’s master users, Lee Kyung-jin and Hibiki, set out to defend the Tumen River.

Baekri hasn’t come to Korea yet. I was struggling to save the people who were still left, so I’ll be back here sooner or later when the work there is over.

Korea was the last hope in the current situation. It is only a matter of time before the European Union is penetrated, and Russia is also a great power, but if it tries to fight against more than 1 billion hostile species, the only thing left is to blow up all remaining nuclear warheads and self-destruct. It is possible to hold a sit-in until the very end only when we defend Korea, where there is an immigration checkpoint in Mars.

“It’s disgusting to see things wriggling around, even less intelligent bugs.”

Hibiki growled and showed his strength. Like a hundred li, or rather, it dominates the battlefield wider and stronger than a hundred li. The enemy species rushing towards the Tumen River front are caught up in the momentum and the battle line collapses.

In the first place, there is no such thing as a battle line, but when the running things stop and get tangled up, it looks like that.

“One light shot”

Aaaaa!!!!!

The word is light, but the power is not light. The fist that struck the air was not just like shadow boxing, but the shock wave exploded as it became a force.

Dozens, not hundreds, but thousands of them are swept away with a single fist. It is quite unrealistic to see those who would be fine even in a missile bombardment fly through the air scattering pieces of flesh.

But they keep coming. I don’t care about thousands of blanks, or rather, I eat the flesh of the people who have been smashed and died, and I’m going to have a good time again.

“I’ve heard of them, but they’re more damned.”

Kwaaang!!! Wooooo!!! Aaaaa!!!!

The fist that kills thousands at once is swung again and again. Rather, despite the number of billions, it was so overwhelming that it was too late for them to fill the void.

Furthermore, Hibiki didn’t need to exert much effort, just needed her physical strength, so at least one third of the frontline… No, two thirds could be covered. As long as he was there, there was no concern for the Tumen River Front.

“Even if there are a lot of small fish, there is a limit to what can be done… Hey! Who is there!”

“Yes, yes!!! What are you doing?”

“Try contacting the local side over there! No, just contacting the coalition government and moving the navy!”

“Are you talking about the Navy?”

In the current situation, all the Navy can do is to bombard enemy species on land from the sea. Even so, there was a limit, and the current navy prioritizes transporting refugees as long as hostile species do not invade the sea.

What Hibiki was saying now was guessing that they would come to the sea.

“There’s no way these guys don’t know I’m here, so there’s no way that guy up there doesn’t know that he’s there.”

Hitting the weak spot is a natural strategy. The reason why they haven’t invaded by sea so far is because they can move enough by land.

However, Korea has three sides of the sea, and in order to go overland, you must cross the Tumen River, but if Hibiki is blocking it, you will definitely find another way.

Even if they didn’t do that, Hibiki could crush them if they all came, but… The world doesn’t go the way you think.

“Their movements and evolution methods are quite artificial. I’ll control it again this time, so I can clearly see that they will come through the sea.”

“I’ll tell the coalition government that way for now.”

“Hurry up, you may not have as much time as you think.”

Hibiki clicked his tongue as he saw the hostile servants rushing in again.

No matter how strong you are, there is a limit to being alone. Hibiki can also kill Gar-Rekal, who put this planet in danger, but 10,000 policemen can’t keep the peace.

There are only a handful of people Hibiki can save now, without the Hundred Ghost Nights that followed him in Shuten’s days. Just a handful more than others.

“Well, somehow it will work. I feel good.”

Hibiki decided to wait. Because there is still a little bit left.

*        *    *

Hibiki’s prediction was correct. Not a few, but for the first time, they started full-fledged maritime activities.

There was a possibility that they would come through the sky, but their numbers were inefficient and too numerous to fly. It’s better to change the land to go to the sea than to change it to fly from the ground.

Wooooo!!!

The super-large enemy species wriggled and changed its appearance. The grossly human-like body gradually transforms into a streamlined shape, resembling a whale or sea turtle.

Of course, the size is at least several times bigger than the blue whale, but thousands of enemy species could ride on the back of the guy who changed his shape.

It’s not just one or two guys like that. A dozen or so. Even if you look at the simple numbers, hundreds of thousands prepare to cross the sea.

It did not take long to reach Korea from the coast of China. The speed of those who stretched out their tentacles and rotated them like propellers to generate propulsion was faster than that of a ship.

“Kill them before they land!!! If you kill them and drown them in the sea, even they won’t be able to call their numbers!!!”

“There are too many of them! Besides, naval battles are difficult for Force users!”

Basically, antagonistic species appear where there is a high population density. Even if this is not the case, it appears on land anyway, and when it appears in the sea, it swims to the nearest shore or sinks into the sea and dies. So, most Force users have no naval combat experience.

There were too many opponents to fight on the ship and it was tough. The shaking of the ship was not a hindrance, but it was difficult to fight with the sinking of the ship in mind when there was nowhere to escape.

Kwak Kwah Kwah!!!!

“Do you think I’ll let you go to Korea?!”

Then, flying rapidly, it split the surface of the water and created a rough current, and a hundred li flew. He had heard the urgent news while he was dealing with the numerous bastards on the leadern side.

Geeeeeing!!!

Again, Baekri’s characteristics are manifested, stopping their actions. Even very large red species lose their shape, disintegrate and sink into the water.

However, the coast of China is wide and the sea is also wide. It wasn’t easy to catch all of them once they started moving to the sea, so no matter how fast they moved around, it was impossible to stop them all.

A group of enemy species landed in Incheon. However, the troops who have already received the news gather and desperately stop their invasion.

Doo doo doo!!!

In a battlefield where there is no time to pick up fallen shell casings, they fire bullets as if they were overdoing it, blocking their progress even a little bit. It’s because they know that if Incheon is pierced, Korea will be eaten by them in earnest.

“이 시발 새끼들!!!! 누굴 빨갱이로 만들고 있어?! 어디서 인천 상륙작전이야?!”

“Shoot! Shoot!!! If this is penetrated, everyone will die!!!!”

Hard once, easy twice. Subsequently, Incheon was attacked by the enemy species.

Let Korea, the last bastion of humanity, be invaded. The news spread quickly, even if they tried to control it. Despair and fear quickly spread along with rumors and ate people’s hearts.

And most of the residents of the area close to Incheon became refugees and headed north. It was decided that it would be much safer to head to the Hwaseong Immigration Office near the former Kaesong Industrial Complex than to go to the province.

Under the leadership of the soldiers, or by car, or on foot if that doesn’t work. The faces of those who wanted to get away from death turned black and struggled to face the north.

At that emotion, Gar-Rekal smiled happily from the great temple. At least, as he thought, things were proceeding sequentially.

Around the time the situation was gradually reaching its worst, Ha Jung-wook was discussing how to act in the current situation with Shion alone.

“We have to control the influx of refugees. We don’t know how many people will die if we do that.”

“I should know, but the situation right now is a bit precarious.”

It’s the Great Demon King’s gaze that says she’s on the edge. If Zion does anything to protect them, they will stop them.

“Yes, we know that too. There are limits to the people we can bring in as judges, and there are certain people we can protect… But shouldn’t we save people?”

“It is.”

What should Zion do? He pondered.

If the regular method does not work, there is no choice but to use the expedient method, and the current situation is sufficient for the expediency, but the cost will not be greater if it is more constrained.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t take out the combat robots for city defense. That’s because you can’t fight without my command, and the moment I give an order, it becomes a full-fledged intervention.”

“……..”

“And just in case you don’t know, please return Ha Jung-wook’s ID as well. This is because the ID issued to Ha Jung-wook is permitted to be used for other powered suits of the same model, including the one he is wearing.”

“……?”

“There are 3,000 powered suits similar to those stored separately in the underground hangar at the immigration desk, so please take care of returning them.”

“Ah…..!!!!”

I’m talking blatantly, but if you don’t know, you’re an idiot.

Shion’s words will be tolerated and ignored, meaning that you can use the remaining 3000 powered suits with your Powered Suit license ID.

Directly putting combat robots that do not move without her command into the battlefield is proof that she intervened in the incident, but if it’s a powered suit that moves according to the wearer’s will, the responsibility lies with the person who took it and used it at will rather than Shion.

“Thank you!!!”

“What are you thankful for? Anyway, as I said, return the ID and powered suit properly.”

“Yes, I understand”

What matters is the person.

Ha Jung-wook cannot use 3000 Powered Suits alone. Even if you can’t do it, you need 3,000 people.

He first took out his cell phone and went through his contacts. Colleagues who worked at the same fire department, fellow firefighters, and their connections. Most of those who aim to become civil servants do it for iron rice bowl jobs that are not dismissed in any way, but firefighters do it with a heart to save people, big or small. Who would easily choose to risk their own life to save others?

People who can be contacted, people who can’t. Even if it is, the one who refuses, the one who cuts off. There were people who turned away from the hopeless current situation, but there were people who gathered on the contrary.

Even though it was already safe to go to Mars, there were people who came here again. It is a bonus that Zion did not restrain them.

Eventually, after a day or so, the number of people gathered was a little over 3,000. There’s no guarantee that none of these people came just for a powered suit, but I’d like to think that there are at least a lot more people who have gathered to save such people.

“Oh, is this place?”

“Oh…Senpai, you’ve succeeded.”

“What is success? This kind of success is not zero.”

In the underground hangar, the 3000 powered suits Shion said were lined up. Each one is an excellent piece of equipment with the ability to kill even the most hostile species.

Each wears a powered suit and gets permission to use it with Ha Jung-wook’s ID. If you go out of town, you’ll have to come back later to recharge, but at least you’ll be able to move around for a few days, so you can protect the people around you.

“First of all, establish a communication line exclusively for us, and guide and control the refugees in the vicinity first. There is no weapon, so if you see an enemy species, don’t engage and give priority to the refugees…”

“Senior, does this have a plasma cutter?”

“…….”

Just as a hammer belongs to a tool but can be used as a weapon, a powered suit can also be used as a weapon with some tool-like features. Rather, in some ways, the killing power is more than that.

“The remaining personnel are controlled from this side separately, and if there is a problem, contact them and replace them later. If there are more people coming later, I will tell them too.”

“All right!”

And the door to the hangar opens. A passage leading to the ground is opened and they go out through it.

In the distance, smoke rises and noises, including screams, reach here. I can’t even imagine how desperate the situation would be from far away.

“God, if I die according to your will, please take care of my wife and children with the hand of grace…”

He recited the last line of the fireman’s poem.

When others run away from Hell, they voluntarily enter Hell.
