The voyage went smoothly.
The weather was clear and there was almost no wind, so seeing it from the deck made me feel like I was on a trip.
10 hours passed like that.
Gradually the sky became cloudy and it started to rain.
In the meantime, the view of the land.
Soon after, the commander-in-chief Lee Han-yeok summoned the officers.
“First, wait upstairs. After looking at the movement, we will disembark in order, starting with the first team.”
At his words, the officers who summoned troops waited for the ship to dock.
However, perfect berthing was not possible.
Although the size of the ship is large, it was almost impossible to anchor on a regular beach without a port.
They were as close as possible, but the distance from the land was about several hundred meters.
As he had already heard from the captain, Lee Han Station ordered the ship to disembark as soon as it stopped at an appropriate place.
with a plop!
Hunters started jumping into the sea one after another.
It was quite deep, but it was not an obstacle for those with buoyancy magic.
Soon after, the hunters who deployed their mobile devices began to quickly get out of the water.
When Team 1 reached the land, Team 2, in charge of the chief of staff, flew up into the sky at once.
The second team he was in charge of was a flyer made up of all magic troops.
There was someone who flew past them in an instant.
“That is the newly appointed regional commander. It’s fast, really fast.”
“Did you see me for the first time today? It’s not even on the axis of surprise.”
“right. You were on the Suseong team with Chief Lee Tae-ho. I heard that, but are you really a monster?”
“Don’t talk. If you had been there at that time, you would have felt with your whole body that a mere human could fight like that. I heard you blocked the Meteor Strike alone.”
“I’ve heard that too, but it’s not possible.”
“It’s possible, that person.”
Around the time Team 2 landed in admiration.
Teams 3 and 4 disembarked in turn.
Scattered like that, they started to move as planned when there seemed to be no danger.
Tae-jeong, who folded the blaster and summoned the exoskeleton legs to match the speed with her teammates, was running side by side with Lee Han-yeok and had a short conversation.
“What is that up there? It looks like yours.”
Yihan Station asked while looking at the small flying object in the sky that he had been watching for a while.
“It’s a bomber, but I’m using it for reconnaissance. I think the field of view will be much wider than what you see from the ground.”
“Because it’s a bomber, there are all sorts of strange things about it. Then can you attack?”
“Yes. It was originally made for that purpose.”
“Looking at the size, I don’t get a good feeling. That would be great too.”
“I haven’t tested it yet.”
“Anyway, you are a really strange class. If you see anything, let me know in advance.”
“All right.”
As we went inland, the rain became more and more intense.
It was so hard that it was difficult to open my eyes.
In the end, the hunters started hitting the shields one by one, and Tae-jeong also summoned Taegeuk 1.
It took a long time for about 200 troops to advance north like that.
Reaching the first assembly point, they camped out and began to plan their next steps.
“Since time is in a hurry, the east, west, and central points are large from here. I think it should be torn into three pieces like this. Regional Captain.”
At Lee Han’s call, Taejeong answered by folding her head.
“Yes.”
“Have you caught anything special?”
“Except the road, nothing can be seen within a radius of 10 li.”
“Well. Right.”
The chief of staff opened his mouth to him who nodded.
“Exactly somewhere is the place where the last communication was cut off.”
“In terms of equipment, it seems to be here. However, as you know, the margin of error for communication through communication channels is so large that it is difficult to make a conclusion.”
“Well. Then, as you say, tear it apart. Even while we’re doing this, they might be fighting for life and death. Give me an order right away.”
He shook his head again at his words and looked at the map carefully.
Soon after, he began to issue orders.
“Team 4, led by the 2nd engineering chief, heads east along the road here. If you go all the way, you will come to the old town called Bisque. It’s the closest place to Sakhalinsk, so intensively search this place. And the commando leader slipped west and took over the beach at Point A, where the ship is believed to have run aground. They said they were attacked there, so you’ll have to move as carefully as possible. If anything unusual happens during the operation, report it right away.”
“Yes. Don’t worry.”
“And the Chief of Staff’s 2nd team and our 1st team will search downtown, the heart of Yuzhno-Sakhalin.”
“Let’s do that.”
“Okay then, let’s check each other’s communication and move to the operation site.”
So the team was scattered in three directions.
Taejeong was part of Team 1 along with Lee Han.
As the number of people decreased, the speed of movement increased.
A speed that no exoskeleton leg alone can keep up with.
Eventually, he summoned a booster to keep his distance from the team.
how long did it run
Taejeong, who was speeding quickly toward downtown, suddenly heard Gerard’s voice.
– 3 km ahead. There is one small dam.
“bank?”
-Yes. When you cross the embankment, you will see a place that is presumed to be a city. Judging by the towering tower in the center, I think this may be the downtown you are talking about.
“People or monsters?”
– Currently not visible.
“great. If there are any changes, tell me immediately.”
-All right.
After receiving the information from Gerard, Tae-jung went to Lee Han-yeok and told him what he had heard.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes. We agreed to let you know if there is anything unusual, so we will report it immediately.”
“Okay.”
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Just as Tae-jeong said, soon a small embankment was discovered that looked like something was trapped there.
Seeing this, Lee Han-yeok gestured toward the 2nd team, and the bodies of about 100 people instantly became as light as feathers.
As soon as I jumped, the new type of hunters jumped over the embankment in an instant, as if gravity had disappeared.
Flotation magic that instantly makes the body lighter.
So what came into my eyes was the appearance of the old town, which had become a complete ruin.
How neglected it is, it is hard to believe that it was a city.
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Jeju Island, which I recently visited, was at least a nobleman.
So they headed to the Independent Tower where the last communication came from.
“ruler. From here on, we move in groups of 8. Everyone, turn on your erg (universal locator) and keep within a 4km radius of the tower.”
“Yes. All right.”
Seven special forces were assigned to Tae-jeong.
Moving with them, he began to search where the isolated guild members were supposed to be.
The most suspicious place was the building.
If you are attacked by a monster, going outside is the same as committing suicide.
They could have scouted out for rescue, but there was no need for that many people to be present.
After all, if you are alive, it means that there is a high probability that you are hiding somewhere.
For the first place he thought of a building.
“I will move this way.”
According to the information received so far, there are less than 10 intact buildings here.
With people already torn in so many directions, the only place he could search was the dilapidated laboratory.
After moving about 2 km like that, a rather gigantic research facility appeared as delivered.
“Shall we go scouting?”
When one of the special forces members asked that, Taejeong shook her head and answered.
“The scale of the building is large, so I will move with you.”
Because I didn’t know the strength of the enemy, I couldn’t tear myself apart more here.
Even if it’s not, it’s minimal power.
With this amount of people, it was best to move together.
The inside of the building was seriously damaged to the extent that it was strange to be standing there.
It is in a state where even one drop of Cheonmu would cause it to collapse.
He cautioned the crew.
“The building has deteriorated a lot, so please refrain from using big skills.”
“All right. But, please be comfortable. We are troops assigned to the regional commander.”
“It is temporary. I am not used to it.”
It was the same at the local college, but he wasn’t used to it yet.
Moreover, his own level is now only 500, and the average level of the Special Forces members who caught up with him is over 650.
It is said that the level does not represent everything, but it was not possible to subordinate people with much more experience than oneself.
It means you have to respect it.
The crew looked at each other as if they were surprised by the appearance.
‘Does he have a good personality?’
‘You’ve become a person.’
‘If this is the case, it’s worth trusting and following.’
As they searched, they eventually reached the main room with an unidentified giant pillar.
Pillars of unknown material with unknown letters written on them.
It rose from floor to ceiling.
It was a strange structure that did not suit the laboratory at all.
“Does anyone know what this is?”
The crew shook their heads at Taejeong’s question.
“I do not know. But it’s kind of strange. Looking at the surrounding objects, it seems to have been a high-tech base, but these rugged pillars. I don’t think it was built by a person.”
Tae-jung agreed with Daewon’s words.
In particular, he inspected the floor carefully, and found that the tiles he had laid were in a mess.
‘I didn’t build it. It seems to have come up through the ground. Did it rise?’
First of all, finding people was the priority, so I tried to move to the next room.
Right then.
Gee-!
The resonant sound that struck the eardrums began to resonate.
At the same time, light shone on the letters embedded in the pillar, and something black began to rise to the floor.
It soon created a monstrous creature, and everyone drew their weapons as if they had promised.
Tae-jung also loaded the mk4 and summoned this laser gun in case of an unexpected event.
At that point, the number of monsters that appeared in the main room increased to about 200.
Really, it happened in a split second.
Their true identity was a monster named Paul.
A very powerful monster seen in Blue Tier 15.
The special forces members were nervous because they had seen it once, and reported it to Tae-jeong.
“He’s a bastard with a level of 650 or higher. I don’t know if you’re outside, but there are too many of them, local captain.”
Even at the word 650, Taejeong’s expression did not change.
No, on the contrary, I even thought that I was lucky.
It was because the level that he was able to reach when he was maxed out was around 600-650.
However, it was a very burdensome situation because I wasn’t alone and I couldn’t use big skills here.
Moreover, the number is so large that the space is narrow, so it is not an environment to fight with allies.
Due to the nature of the weapon he possesses, if he misses, even the crew can be swept away.
Taejeong, who was quickly rolling her head, immediately gave the order.
“Exit through North Gate 4. I’ll make a backup, run.”
As soon as his order was issued, colorful lights were engraved on the swords of the members, and they bounced forward.
At the same time, the monsters all at once closed the distance, and a small battle took place in the front.
Fortunately, there were only a few of them, and the crews who took care of it in an instant got out of Gate 4 first.
Afterwards, Taejeong, who was buying time by drawing all sorts of aggro, turned the booster to full, and in an instant, he overcame them and landed safely at Gate 4.
The crew members who were waiting for him asked Tae-jeong.
“Where are we going now?”
“I’m not going.”
“Yes?”
“I have to go with George.”
After speaking, a huge aircraft was summoned.
At the same time, blocking the entrance to Gate 4, he aimed his flamethrower and Super Vulcan cannon, which were as large as cannon holes.
