Chapter 495 – [A Guide for Transcendentalists Traveling in the Post-Apocalypse]
They outnumbered the mad dogs in the Village of Figs, but that’s all. Even if there were ten Ruri, it was a force that could not be defeated, but with the strongest escort attached, there was no problem.
Wood Deuk!!!!
“Turn it off?!?!”
“Oh? Can this bastard hold up? Maybe because mad dogs are taking medicine, but they’re sensitive to pleasure, but they’re also sensitive to pain. That’s why they scream when you torture them a little… But you’re from a different background, right? I’m sorry”
“Can I use this bastard’s equipment?”
“Originally, routing after a battle is a traditional event. But is it the right size?”
“Let’s fix it a little. I have that much dexterity!”
I overpowered the reinforcements that seemed to be the boss of this place and took off the equipment as it is. Oh, and of course Ruri. I don’t have a hobby of taking off guys’ clothes.
And an exciting interrogation (torture) type. It is said that he has the level of mental strength to endure even breaking his arm, but in the end, he is a human being bound by his body. Even I am affected by it, but the limitations of humans who have not even entered the transcendental class are clear.
“You bastards…And even the dirty bitch…!!!!”
“Tell me everything you know”
“Hmph! Do you think I’ll tell you! Even if it threatens my life, I won’t say anything!!!!!”
“I think you misunderstood something.”
“……?”
“What you need to say now is not ‘Please save me’, but ‘Please kill me'”
“……!”
“Do you know what it feels like to want to die but not be able to?”
For me personally, the most unanswerable torture is the one that is not to find out, but purely to inflict pain.
It goes without saying that a person must be alive in order to open his mouth. That’s why torture just to give pain doesn’t have to think about life, so that line goes beyond normal torture. There is no break time in between.
And right after that is the torture I am going to do now.
The kind of torture that tells you to kill yourself in order to open your mouth.
If you die without opening your mouth, it’s honestly a loss, but there’s no particular big hit. It’s not urgent right now, so it’s enough to catch someone else. Even if there is no fire other than this one, do you think?
In the end, it is said that torture that does not think about life is a joke.
“Yes, yes, I heard Introduction to Torture. Are there people out there who don’t want to see it?”
“I’ll stay”
“Muhwa, you have a nice stomach.
Muhwa watches my torture in real time, even Ruri freaks out.
No, I didn’t say anything long, but what I could see in his eyes was a vengeance. It is anger toward the culprit who caused this incident and his subordinates. It becomes a good driving force and makes figs strong.
Actually, it’s a pretty fitting feeling. Unlike his quiet personality, Muhwa’s spiritual power is like a flame, and his attributes also belong to that category, so intense emotions suit him. Spiritual power responds to emotions, so it will be of great help to output.
“Kkeuuuuu!!!!”
“Hey, look closely. People get so nervous when they dismantle their arms, right? If you poke this part, the pain goes directly to the brain without having to touch anything else.”
“Yes”
“I can dismantle it by avoiding things like blood vessels, but in case you do, it will be difficult for you, so just avoid the big ones and destroy the small ones with magic. It’s difficult to control, but the details are difficult. Is it possible to ignite a little bit?”
“Yes, that much is possible.”
“Roughly, stop the bleeding and torture. If it’s at a decent level, even if you tear off your limbs and burn them, you’ll die of shock… No, if you stop the seizures from the excessive pain, you’ll be alive.”
“Yes”
If Shion saw it, he would criticize him for teaching him good things, but technicians are treated preferentially here too.
Although that skill usually corresponds to a military force such as a reinforcement soldier or a shaman… Since he is already a shaman, he only needs to sharpen and polish it, and other skills are needed.
It’s my personal opinion, but it’s pretty useful because I learned torture techniques!
In fact, I was also a case of violently killing people, but rather evolved and developed from ‘how to kill people’ to ‘how people don’t die’.
Roughly speaking, it should be said that it is similar to an orthopedic technician who can pick people up well… Ah, the analogy is a bit strange.
“Jae-ho, Yoo-gwi!!!!”
“Uh?”
“Jaeho Yugwi-nim!!!! My owner is Jaeho Yugwi-nim!!!!! So please kill me…!!!!”
He also gave in to the pain in the end… But the name that came out is unusual.
Why is the name of a nobleman who should be in the North here?
“Ishehere now?”
“Ahhhhh! He’s in the den of mad dogs!!!!”
“You moved your heavy hips well”
The aristocrat’s body was not adapted to this era. That’s why, even if it wasn’t his will, he had to live in a facility before the destruction. At least you have to live in the shade where the hot sun doesn’t shine.
Even Baek-hee, whose lifespan has greatly increased after undergoing the procedure before the destruction, is still efficient, but if consumed beyond that, she will eventually die. It only lasts a little longer, but the lifespan of hundreds of years is only reduced to a few years.
If you have a lot of greed, your obsession with your own life is also great. But despite that, coming out of one’s own base and being here… It must mean that greed has overcome obsession with life.
I can guess what kind of guy he is. Although Ruri and Baekhee told him, it was clear that he was a pretty bad guy.
“Now… Please… Kill me…”
“OK”
He blew the man’s neck, who had no more strength left to scream. There would have been more information to mine, but for now, just the name was enough.
When I returned and told him what he had told me, Baek-hee seemed less surprised, but Ruri displayed her displeasure with her face, which a woman shouldn’t.
“Why is that bastard who is a crazy nursing care worker without a baby and a baby here?”
“……I expected it, but the possibility was low, so I didn’t pay much attention, but on the other hand, is it the worst case?”
“Did you ever think that this would happen?”
“Of course. Jaeho and Yugwi are as suspicious as they are greedy. He’s someone who can’t easily trust even his own blood. Do you think such a person would entrust the authority of an important facility like a cradle to his subordinate?”
“Well, he’ll come down to get it himself.”
Even if it is intact, or even if only half of it remains, the facilities of the cradle will be the power to discuss the supremacy of this planet because it has all the technology of the past.
Beyond simple troops, other facilities become the foundation, allowing you to build a nation beyond a city. Will such a power be entrusted to others?
The first time was something that had to be passed on. That it was right now
“No, in the era when the past vassal relationship was completely blown away, he ordered Jinrang Yoju to chase me, so he came down here on his own?”
“Anyway, it seems that it was a simple sheep hunt…”
“Sheep hunting?”
“If it’s simply the direction to the cradle, there might be a way to take a detour, but if it’s the direction you need to go while you’re being chased, you might be able to infer it.”
“……We were playing around from the beginning?”
“Maybe so. The old pig has more hair than before.”
“Even if a pig lived a thousand years, would it be more than that one? Fuck, I feel dirty anyway.”
There are several routes to the cradle. The longest takes several months, but it’s still a way to avoid the den of mad dogs.
However, we escaped from Jinrang Yoju, who we thought would be our pursuer, and set a route to Yoram, escaping from his sphere of influence and escaping to the city of the narrator Kiyeong, whom we had a bad relationship with.
He had predicted that and was waiting for it in advance.
“I should have noticed from the time the mad dogs sucked the red marriage… But it was a mistake not to think that this was the South.”
“Does he also produce drugs?”
“If you tell me in an easy way, Mr., The city of Jaeho and Yugwi in the north is at the level of Mexico. No, it is worse.”
“Roughly known”
But did I destroy it? To be exact, I hit the referee!
Anyway, if it’s like this, the infrastructure that produced the drug makes sense. A noble with one of the leading powers in the north was determined to produce drugs, and the amount was not small. Rather, even if it is hundreds or thousands of mad dogs, there will be enough of it that their brains will turn into mush and rummage through it.
“You mean selling drugs or something?”
“Of course, they say it’s a combat aid drug… But which crazy guy is leading the way in selling drugs in the city? No matter how crazy I am, it’s a concept madness, and these guys are really crazy crazy!”
I understand why Lurie said it was worse than Mexico.
In a world where the international community is important, Mexico is easy to obtain drugs, but it is only a shadow business. However, it is said that the city of Jaeho Yugwi is worse than Mexico because the police and public facilities sell drugs, so to speak.
It is the only drug allowed by the state.
“I can’t bring the troops from the north over the Great Desert, so I’ll pack up a minimum of reinforcements or shamans and come down, then use drugs to gather mad dogs and build up my power again, and as now, with a small number of strong people, minimal control…..Predicting where we’re coming from and holding on until we come?”
“Is this kid incompetent?”
“Somehow, time seems to have changed him. The Jaeho Yoo-gwi I remember was a greedy man with no ability.”
However, if there was only one miscalculation here, it was my existence.
If Ruri was alone, he would not have been able to shake off the pursuit of Jinrang Yoju, but he would have been able to escape with difficulty. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to escape the North and cross the Great Desert in the first place.
Even though it took longer than now, they must have arrived near the cradle in the end. And Ruri, who brought the jewel from here, must have been caught by the mad dog and the servants of the Jaeho Yugwi…
After that… To be honest, it’s a story that you know even if you don’t talk about it. I wish I could be like the survivors in the Village of Figs, because I won’t be lacking.
“Anyway, isn’t that what you mean by negotiating?”
Shion straightened out the situation.
Yes, this is a problem that won’t end until one of them dies. Of course, whoever dies is decided.
“First of all, the best way is to talk.”
“Talk? With him? How?”
“Jinrang, Yoju, and Ruri pursued you through communication from the north to the south. I wonder if these guys have anything with each other?”
Youngja’s reaction is felt in a house in the village. It’s not simple, it’s a bit more precise… Maybe that’s a communication device.
Even if a small number of elites are dispatched to control the mad dogs, there will be a time lag in the command system. To minimize it, means of communication are essential.
“The way to deal with it is a problem, but wouldn’t it be relatively easy since there were people in those days?”
“I’m not sure. You’ll know once you see it.”
Enter the village The same gruesome sight as the one seen in the village of fig comes into view.
I could see Muhwa and Baekhee’s eyes shaking. Both seem confused because it happened only a few days ago.
Jaeho Yugwi’s subordinate, so unlike the dirty mad dogs, I found something inside a relatively clean house with something like a crystal ball in a translucent cube box.
On the other hand, it is similar to Yeouiboju, but the crystal ball inside is cloudy. Considering the purity, this is muddy water, and Yeouiboju is at the level of first-class water.
“Ah, is it a military English communicator? It’s quite old-fashioned, but it’s sturdy, so it’s an item that was active in my era.”
“Wherever you go, military use is military use. Like green slippers, they look as fucking strong and last a long time.”
“Gongnyon!”
“That’s the Army. Can I use it anyway?”
“Originally, we had to register separately and get permission to use it, but…It’s meaningless to us. It’s enough to use mine without needing to use the Queen’s Jewel.”
When Baek-hee touched her Yeouiju to the communicator, it emitted a faint light, and the spirit inside reacted and began to vibrate slightly.
“There’s only one registered communicator…… It’s nice that it’s easy to find.”
“Connect right away”
“I’ll do it even if I don’t have to. It’s a very old-fashioned thing, so it takes a while to connect, but…”
“Have you slowed down even though you made progress?”
“Rather, it’s because it’s military equipment. It’s quite outdated, but accuracy is more important than time to prevent eavesdropping or anything like that. Instead, once connected, no one can eavesdrop.”
“Ah, if there is such an advantage.”
Shion, who is picky in terms of technique, nodded in agreement.
Certainly, if this ability is related to spirit-type technology, eavesdropping may not be impossible, but it will be very difficult. It’s much cheaper to put a bugger next to the person on the radio than to waste energy eavesdropping on it.
-Is it Shinjun? What’s going on?
Soon, voices began to be heard from beyond.
It’s the voice of a fairly old man. I couldn’t see his face, but I was able to instinctively realize that he was Jaeho and Yugwi.
No one said It was quiet, just staring at Baekhee. She handed over her initiative, knowing that she was the only one worth talking about.
Baekhee said soon. After a long time beyond the fall of the empire, two people who have memories of that time meet.
“It’s been quite a while, Jaeho and Yugwi”
-…….Majesty?
“Looks like the old pig has only increased his tricks while he hasn’t seen it. Even then, he’s just a bastard.”
No, I cursed at dogs and pigs from the beginning?!
