possible and impossible (2)
Alaska, Yukon, USA.
The vast land where reindeer and bison used to play is covered with gunshots and gunfire and gives off an acrid smell.
“Lieutenant Colonel Harold! Reinforce the defenses with the Patton Bridge!”
“… You cut it off two weeks ago!”
“Niger… The monster bastard has reconnected it!”
Obviously, the ‘EL Patton Bridge’ on the Yukon River was cut off in advance.
The sergeant’s cry contains a cruel reality.
Tier 3 Monster Niger.
The detailed method is unknown, but the guy who symbolizes darkness, darkness, and pollution has forcibly reattached the broken bridge.
“… What should I do?”
“What do you do, what do you do! I can’t take it off now! There is a group of monsters right in front of you… Shit! Jansen, Hoffman!”
Lieutenant Colonel Harold looked at the monsters crowding the riverbank and the cannonballs falling on them, and reluctantly called in 20 people.
Excluding field officers composed of 4th to 7th grade talented people, and forming a support force including noncommissioned officer ranks (7th to 9th grade).
After all, neither side of the front could be safe if the monsters managed to cross the river.
“Air Threat!”
“75 meters ahead!”
“It’s Axis! Poison caution!”
In the meantime, green bodily fluid pours over my head like rain.
Axis, which lazily flew through the sky, had an inconsistent number of legs like a mutant monster, but it was terribly efficient at dealing with the acidic liquid that flowed from its excretory organs.
“Aagh!”
“Stay still! You have to cut out the flesh!”
Although the front was covered with a mound of earth, it was impossible to block all the way to the ceiling.
The soldiers who allowed the attack each grabbed the wound and rolled around, and the human side, led by Lieutenant Colonel Harold, hurriedly launched a counterattack.
An armor-piercing bullet would be able to destroy the relatively fragile wings, but before that, people with special abilities had to break the shield.
“Birds who rule the firmament, pour out angry cries with your golden beaks. Prove that only you exist by riding on the lyrics of flames.”
[Guardian’s Lamp]
Soon, an eagle made of flames flies from his chest, and at the same time, whirlwinds and lightnings and various supernatural powers soar into the air from all over the defense line.
The number of flying monsters alone reaches 2,000… I don’t see great effect.
Even if they beat dozens through a series of attacks, it was only a few.
“Correspondent! Connect ASOC (Air Support Operations Center)! right now!”
Then, suddenly, around the time the lieutenant colonel requested that ground bombardment resources be returned to air support, news was delivered from one side of the front line.
“… Lieutenant Colonel!”
“what! I was told that sometime they would provide support for aerial bombs-”
“The 10th Mountain Regiment has been wiped out!”
On the battlefield, it was difficult to convey words due to the screams of humans, the cries of monsters, and the noise of gunpowder weapons such as shells, but everyone heard the message of the signalman.
“Annihilation?”
“The 10th Mountain Regiment… Those are the guys who went to support the main raid.”
“Anyway, doesn’t that mean that the defensive operation is a failure?”
It’s not wrong, there are three attack routes for monsters. As the previously mentioned ‘EL Patton Bridge’ and a place about 30 kilometers away from it.
It seems that fortifying the terrain where the river meanders was futile, but the existence of a level 3 monster turned everything into nothing.
Considering the combat duration of ordinary soldiers, the defensive operation is virtually over.
“What about Patton Bridge?”
“The downstream direction is still good,” he said. However, in the case of the upper reaches, Nuves (grade 3) is advancing at a fast pace… … .”
“… Was there no response from headquarters?”
“This command is to switch to the E&E (Escape and Evade) phase.”
And inevitably, Operations Command ordered a retreat.
* * *
“… That’s how it happened.”
On the way back to Seoul by car.
Agent Jeong Kwang-shik clings to me and spits out all the facts I didn’t ask.
Aside from telling me confidential stuff, it was full of stuff that unrelated people shouldn’t be hearing.
Thanks to that, inside the car, only Lim Seol-ha and other children’s eyes were twinkling.
“Due to this situation, military generals will be held accountable and will step down. The Kingston subjugation operation was relatively small in scale, so we strengthened it as advised by Mr. Lee Yong-soo… In the case of Alaska, it was not handled properly because of the opposition of the authorities.”
“… Looks like you got it right.”
“Yes. There were 80,000 troops stationed in the Yukon River basin alone. Among them, the 10th Mountain Regiment was annihilated, and at least 8,200 were killed or missing in the retreat. Three level 3 monsters have moved south… In a way, it is a natural result.”
“Is that the only thing that died?”
“… … .”
The girl who was listening next to him spat out a small sigh, but personally, I was more surprised than sorry.
Three level 3 monsters and a wave size of 22,000, but only 8,000 people died in the retreat operation.
Even the number of missing persons combined.
“… you praised That’s great. If it was Korea, there would not have been 800 people living there.”
“I appreciate the compliment. However, this is a clear failure. The president is in big trouble. The complete restoration of Alaska was one of the presidential promises. Likewise, Republicans are very embarrassed.”
It took a while to explain the relationship between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.
He pauses and abruptly hands over the briefcase.
“Once you get this. I almost forgot.”
“What is this?”
“These are the things I asked for. It is a satellite access device with an intelligent security system applied and permission to handle Korea’s first-class secret. The investigation request documents are a bonus.”
“Level 1?”
“Well, that doesn’t mean the CIA has access to information. Rather, it is more of an information-sharing system possessed by very few US heroes. Apparently, there are a lot of sensitive data on the intelligence agency side… … .”
He didn’t necessarily want the CIA data, but he made excuses by waving his hand in the air.
“Still, it will be useful data for reference. EU countries and Israel, Mexico and India, Chile and Brazil and so on. Information from allies or allies of the United States is comprehensively uploaded. Even in Korea, only the air force commanders of the international assault force receive preferential treatment-”
“It’s enough. that’s enough.”
“Hmmm, is that so? I am relieved that you have had enough.”
Soon, while the third barrier was reflected outside the car window, the agent passed the time explaining in detail how to use the equipment.
The IC chip can be plugged into the existing security cell phone, the US Air Force Space Command will grant permission whenever a reconnaissance satellite is requested, and miscellaneous things can be called at any time.
After pouring out miscellaneous stories, it wasn’t until just before entering the city of Seoul that the main topic was brought out.
“Are you thinking of going to America? As shown in the Level 1 Secret Clearance data, the country does an accurate count on each mission it dispatches. When a company or government announces an official mission, the first thing to do is the operation cost. Money isn’t everything, but you’ll most likely get a decent amount. In addition… It would be nice for my friends to gain experience.”
“… I’m not going to Alaska. It’s a problem if I go alone, it’s a problem if I bring an international raiding party that I can’t even coordinate, and it’s a problem if I take them. I don’t have the hobby of voluntarily entering a place to die.”
“It’s not Alaska. Actually, the White House wants to invite Lee Yong-soo.”
“… White House?”
“Yes. A VIP wants to chat. I’m ready to listen more seriously than before.”
It was an absurd sound.

Mapo-gu, Seoul, HSAC (Hero Special Activities City).
Students who graduated from the Hero Training Academy are divided into three categories.
Creating your own raid, acting as a raid member, or being pushed to the provinces to earn a living as a mercenary.
And HSAC was only available in the first case.
Creation of raids.
Although the majority of raid groups in Korea are sponsored by companies, they move into special areas designated by the government to share information, and sometimes they gather several raid groups on their own to defeat high-level monsters.
However, as I am not one of the three categories, I was mercilessly thrown into an unusual move-in process.
“Isn’t the space too small? How many pyeong was this place?”
“It’s 250 pyeong, boss.”
Click, click!
On the other side of the building, while flashlights explode, the chairman’s second son, Kim Young-hoon, looks around the room and nags.
“Tsk, international raids have face. It’s okay to take pictures from across the street. There are security issues as well.”
“… Yes.”
“Look for a larger place.”
“We will consult with the government. As the public’s attention is focused on the creation of an international assault force, I want the mayor of Seoul to move into the special activity center.”
“The mayor of Seoul?”
“Yes.”
I haven’t even put a desk down yet.
The middle-aged man frowned and showed off his blunt tone, wondering what he didn’t like so much.
There are too many pillars, separate the office space from the rest space, and choose a place with an open view across the street, and so on.
The meddling was ferocious to watch.
“Rent an entire floor for the office so you don’t run into other raiders, and empty the top and bottom as well. It should be different from domestic A-class raiders. These are all signs of the HT Group.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
If I stopped, it seemed that I had made Park Yoo-jin, the person in charge of the field, hard enough, but in reality, this is just the beginning.
The second boss calls me with a wink.
That meant we were going to be taking pictures on the other side of the building, so we could have a chat together.
“That bastard’s parrot… not. Without it, the painting will be empty again.”
“… … .”
“Have you received the delivery?”
“The results of the promotion review?”
At the same time as the head nod, the back words stick together.
It was very reluctant to exude a pleasant feeling.
“In three days, news of acceptance will be officially announced. With the help of the US and Russia, my family didn’t even have to step in. All that remains is the launching ceremony of the International Raid. Speaking of which, why don’t we do the next subjugation operation in the US? Didn’t you benefit from Yongsu in Russia? huh? Is it different from America?”
different.
In terms of games, it was a place where really strong guys played, so it was obvious that if you took the newly created International Raid Corps with you, it would come back disintegrated.
If you’re really unlucky, you might face Draco (Level 1) who appeared earlier than in your previous life.
“It’s not an order, so don’t misunderstand. I’m just recommending it. Yong-soo, you are also responsible for the international raid-”
“I am going to South Asia.”
“… where?”
“The first mission is to go to South Asia. I’m thinking of going through India to the UAE.”
Therefore, the second son’s unpleasant complexion is willing to endure.
After in-depth discussions about parrots and information about US clearance for Level 1 security, the priority was westward.
Oilfields in the UAE were at stake.
