Munsan-eup, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do, headquarters of the 2nd Field Command.
Inside the large barracks, dozens of monitors are lined up.

Military generals are in the middle of discussing operations in the back, while combat controllers are holding microphones and giving feedback.
Scattered saliva and prominent blood vessels on the nape of the neck represented a difficult situation.
“Area 2-09 is at stake. Everyone, pay attention!”
“Identification of five instances of Marcus. Clinged to a simple barrier. Treatment is required first. I repeat, take care first.”
“Team Akalo, don’t back down! Isn’t the defense axis collapsing!”
It’s not wrong, the main screen is full of red.
It’s been less than 8 minutes since we collided with the monsters, but Area B-2 was already showing signs of collapse.
“T-12, Requesting Urgent Assistance. Scalp (Level 8) broke in.”
“Conversion of Team Papis from T-14 to 12. Request for additional unmanned equipment.”
“ah… … .”
Suddenly, the officer in charge of the T-01 platoon covers his face with the palm of his hand.
The video transmitted by the drone appeared on his personal monitor.
Inside the entrance, thirty-two boys and girls had disappeared, leaving only earphones and bits of other equipment behind.
“… T-01, all dead. Report loss of platoon control.”
The direct cause of the annihilation was the lack of stopping power, and even though firepower was poured into a limited space, Spina (7th grade) penetrated in the end.
Naturally, the mouths of the surrounding controllers become busy.
“Reservations are put in, reserves are put in. T-35, move towards the entrance.”
“T-36 to 39 stand by.”
“Spina is alive and well. Watch out for [Full of Thorns] and [Explosions].”
However, the situation in B-3 area is very different.
Sitting in the corner, Lieutenant Oh blankly stares at the screen.
Under the drone cam, a black-haired boy was performing a massacre at the entrance of the simple fortress.
Charreuk!
When the spina that appeared just in time poured out [thorn stalks], Lee Yong-su spurred the left barrier and floated into the air.
The moment when dozens of strands rushed in succession.
He inserted the dagger in his left hand into the left shoulder of Marcus (9th grade, humanoid), and spun around on the surface of the monster.
“Kyaaagh!”
This is like using a 2-meter-long figure as a shield while avoiding enemy attacks, and Marcus, impaled by a thorn stem, falls helplessly.
The boy ran toward the target again without even thinking about looking back.
The number of people entering through the screen was increasing, so it was my intention to organize the 7th grade monsters before the space became dense.
Therefore, the lower classes encountered on the way finish at the line of suppression.
jump!
Serathim hit the side of the head, two Akers pressed the top of the head, and Velikanis, who looked like a dog, even slashed it with his elbow.
Without the manifestation of specialized abilities, he breaks through the path only with his rapidly growing physical abilities.
“… This is why everyone hangs their necks.”
Shortly after using barbed wire and various obstacles to narrow the distance, Lieutenant Oh presses down the transmission button on the microphone with a brief exclamation.
If the melee dealers were in awe, the range dealers… It was the other way around.
“Tim Ho Pae-rang, adjust the number of times your ability manifests. to reach the limit-”
[Does it make sense to say that you fucking bastards really adjust to this situation?]
“… I understand your feelings a hundred times, but it can be even more dangerous if you burn out. You have to keep in mind the duration of the battle.”
[…] … .]
“With Tim Hopae?”
[…] … .]
Did you have a bad stomach?
Despite calm persuasion, no answer came back.
Originally, fighters with special abilities had a short combat duration, so management was important, but the fear of the battlefield clouded their reason.
In the meantime, the boy shows a perfect example of the use of superpowers as if to look at me.
Injuries that scratched the skin were left to the natural healing power, but when the core muscles were damaged by intense movements, [Recovery] was used to fill the empty hole.
[Muscle tissue control] and [Flexibility] are manifested in situations where it is impossible to cope with basic abilities. The attack of the claws, thorn stems, and poison teeth was turned to nothing.
After that, the distance to Spina was about 15 meters.
Suddenly, Lieutenant Oh makes a suggestion. As the monster who pierced the net has reached the age of 80, it is a question of how to repair it.
“… Mr. Lee Yong-soo, many monsters have gathered. Why don’t you drop out for a while and then re-enter after a fire projectile? Eliminating Level 7 is important, but-”
[Just run? Can you sustain it?]
“… Yes?”
[great.]
It took a while for me to spit out an outrageous story.
The boy rushed at the monster that was rushing forward.
The opponent is the 8th grade, Cornu, who boasts huge horns and hard skin. The guy who looked like a rhinoceros at first glance came crashing in with a thud.
And the match is over in an instant.
Tuck, Tuck, Tuck.
Instead of fighting back, he jumped up and took three steps while stepping on the monster’s back.
like that.
Lee Yong-soo flew his body through two steps and one leap.
“… ah!”
Using a moving object as a stepping stone to jump 15 meters is a daunting task, so Lieutenant Oh can’t help but let out a sigh.
Suddenly, a ball of red hair fell from the sky.
“to?”
Even though I watched it with my own two eyes, I couldn’t believe it, so I blinked my eyelids.
The golden macaw stretches out its gray soles and grabs hold of it, flapping its wings dyed in the three primary colors of light (red, green, and blue).
＜Heungya! Heungnya-!＞
Since there was no way that a mere bird could bear the weight of a human being, the existence representing the goddess endured with all his might.
0.5 seconds, no more, no less.
It is enough time to replace the insufficient distance with 0 and release the haze of power.
sue-
The skill amplified with jewels is [Excluded].
As befits an ability that boasts overwhelming efficiency against the physical system, an unusual aura lingered on the surface of the gauntlet.
Shortly after Spina combined 15 stalks and fired [Pillars of Thorns], the boy also slipped down in the air and threw out his fists.
Deed Dede Deuk!
In an instant, from the thick pillar to the main body in the form of a thorn tree, it was torn into five parts, and thorn fragments were scattered.
“Wow… … .”
“… This is a report from the controller.”
It was then.
* * *
It is much harder to retreat than to advance.
In other words, the journey back to the entrance was not easy.
Flying like a butterfly and stinging like a bee was good, but the place it landed was in the middle of a fire ant nest, so I had no choice but to pay the price.
In fact, he countered the long-range attack of Tortum (Level 7) with [Return], and deflected dozens of them at once with a combination of [Muscle Tissue Control] and [Rejection].
I had to pour all the energy I had saved so far.
＜I’m glad you were an immature wasp. If it was a bee, it would have stabbed a dung stinger and died shivering.＞
“… … .”
＜Well, it wasn’t unnecessary wandering. Thanks to that, I was able to take a break. It wouldn’t have been easy if he had led the lower monsters.＞
That’s not wrong.
Since Spina can suck the blood of lower-level monsters to unleash [Full of Thorns], it was right to get rid of it as soon as possible.
However, I have a question… It is the cooperative attitude of the new head.
hold my leg
It was an incredible proposal no matter how many times I looked back.
＜… It’s a mess even if you help me.＞
I wasn’t joking, I was genuinely surprised. [Three-Dimensional Sensing] is like that, and I didn’t expect it to be so helpful.
＜It’s a bit of a compliment. Take a deep breath and get ready.＞
“What?”
＜What can I do, prepare to run away.＞
“… … .”
＜I’m not asking you to run alone. The parrot just looked at it and thought it was time to pull the wires.＞
I thought it was the beginning again, the moment I turned my eyes to the simple barrier here and there.
A deep voice came from the earphones.
[Everyone, don’t panic and listen calmly. Sector B-3 is currently in retreat operation. The armored division is advancing, so we can maintain the status quo for the time being. Stay calm and defend yourself.]
At this, I turn my head and stare at the round eyes, and only then do I spit out the information.
Another defense zone has collapsed.
＜Unfortunately, there’s no one like you in the middle, and fireworms have run over the far right base. Why are you doing this all of a sudden? This is a well-expected result.＞
However, there was no time to respond.
uh uh uh-
Following a strange cry, a foreign creature crosses over the base.
Its identity could be inferred just by its appearance, such as its 4-meter-long wings, snout made up of protruding jaws, and black torso.
It was Niger Suko, aka the Black Bat.
“… Damn, I think we’re all dead.”
The range dealer sitting next to him inadvertently swears.
A kid belonging to Dayoon Kim’s team, I can’t remember the exact name… I didn’t feel uncomfortable.
Actually, that was a good response.
Two bats flying in the sky.
You should be careful of their unique jaw strength and poisonous claws, but what’s more problematic is the fact that they are 5th grade monsters.
yes.
The possibility of mental erosion was strong.
＜The timing of his appearance is amazing. After all, right after the retreat order was given. If you make a mistake, you’ll be swept away at once.＞
“… … .”
＜… What are you going to do?＞
I look around the barrier without answering the parrot’s question.
While most of them could not play their role due to fear, fear, nervousness, and the desire to survive, the simple barrier had just reached its limit.
Even though it was formidable thickness, even the iron plate planted inside was pierced, and the monsters clinging to the outside could be seen through.

Maybe now is the right time to run away.
Tung, Tung, Tung.
Soon, as if trying to hasten my decision, anti-aircraft guns were fired from somewhere in the rear, announcing the arrival of reinforcements.
＜I have no intention of repeating myself. This is solely your decision. Your choice, your responsibility, your life.＞
“… … .”
＜Of course, if you die, the heart of the pitiful and lovely Macaw will also burst… Isn’t that fate too? My heart is ready! No, my heart is ready!＞
Ahh.
You came out to help with this shit.
I make decisions with a little realization. Even if the new head’s speech is annoying, it was right to step back if judged rationally.
That’s it.
＜mmm, you made that decision. Respect. don’t respect This one step back for the sake of one step forward is what this case is all about.＞
“Don’t be mean.”
＜… … .＞
and after a while
As Lieutenant Oh said, armored units arrived and entered through the back gate.
“… You worked hard. We take responsibility from here on out.”
“… … .”
Armored vehicles and tanks, anti-aircraft guns and more.
The thing that was just a tin can to the monster was filled with humans.
