Chapter 113
Episode 113 [ Legacy (4) ]
Kyung-Hoon jumped out of the silver hole.
All the items I had installed before leaving were still there. It seemed like he wasn’t caught.
A small gunshot was heard through the wall.
-The unmanned cannon started shooting. It doesn’t work.
“Because it was expected. “Let’s hurry.”
It was just for bait anyway. Kyung-hoon crossed the hall and stood in front of the elevator door.
The elevator was stopped in the basement. The elevator door was the same as he left it open. Kyung-Hoon went inside and stabbed his sword into the ceiling.
Deep. Crumbling.
Kyung-hoon cut a hole in the elevator ceiling as if he were cutting a cake.
Swish.
He jumped up onto the ceiling through the hole he had made.
He stood on the ceiling and looked up. 20th floor. An elevator shaft nearly 80 meters long came into view.
The elevator was suspended by a total of eight ropes, four on each side. Kyung-hoon grabbed a rope.
Suddenly.
First, Gyeong-Hoon cut the opposite rope with his sword.
It rattled.
The elevator shook violently.
It was a rope hanging from the elevator.
Now, if only the other ropes were cut, it was clear that Kyung-hoon would soar upward along with the ropes.
Kyung-hoon looked up and cut the rest of the rope.
Suddenly.
When the rope was cut, the elevator lurched downward. At the same time, the rope he was holding soared upwards along with Kyung-hoon.
Whirling. Squeak.
But did it only go up 1 meter?
The rope that was going straight up stopped.
It rattled.
And the falling elevator stopped immediately.
“Why did you stop?”
-It is an upward speeding prevention device. If the elevator rises above a certain speed, the brakes are automatically applied.
“The electricity doesn’t work.”
-It is mechanical. It’s not like the movies.
Eve’s voice contained a sigh.
“this.”
Kyung-hoon threw himself towards the wall with a sad expression on his face.
Pop!
After hitting one wall, it soared vertically and hit the edge of the exit on the next floor again.
He soared upward.
It was incredibly fast. It didn’t seem that different from climbing up while hanging on a rope.
5th floor, 10th floor, 15th floor Kyung-hoon continued to climb upward without stopping.
After a while, we arrived at the last floor. He stood on the threshold of the elevator and forced the door open.
Sigh.
The door opened with a crashing sound, and Kyung-hoon headed toward the emergency exit next to the elevator door.
As expected, the emergency exit was connected to the rooftop.
Crack.
He skipped the stairs and arrived at the rooftop door in two takes.
The door to the rooftop was closed.
Kyung-hoon took a deep breath and turned the door handle while still leaning against the wall.
Quick.
The door was locked, but when Kyung-hoon turned the handle, the lock broke.
The door opened.
Fortunately, there were no other monsters visible in the nest.
The nest was made entirely of trees and miscellaneous items piled up.
Kyung-hoon walked through the clutter and approached the center of the nest.
Finding the portal wasn’t difficult. Mana was swirling in the middle of the central rooftop of the nest.
Kyung-hoon went to the place where the mana swirled and dug through the floor where miscellaneous things were piled up.
A strange-looking machine spewing out mana and a pattern drawn on the floor of the rooftop were visible beneath the clutter.
The machine was slightly broken on one side, allowing the inside to be seen. Inside was a large mana stone that I had never seen before.
-It seems like monsters have built a nest here because of the mana stones.
Eve’s words reminded Gyeonghoon of the Awakened Training Center. There, too, a monster was sitting on top of the generator.
“What should I do from now on?”
-Please remove it so that the pattern is exposed, and when I finish filming, you can tear off the machine in the center and take it away.
The sound of gunfire was gradually decreasing.
“We should hurry, right?”
-Of course!
Hearing Eve’s sharp voice, Kyung-hoon hurriedly pushed the miscellaneous items outside.
There were wooden poles and electric poles stuck, but Kyung-hoon was able to push them away.
Whoosh.
My muscles bulged out. At the same time, miscellaneous items were pushed to the outskirts.
A few trees fell off the roof, but luckily they didn’t seem to be noticed.
In an instant, the center of the rooftop became empty.
Kyung-hoon stood next to the machine and turned his body around. The purpose was to capture the pattern on the camera mounted on the chest.
-All filmed. Please hurry. Both machine guns and drones were destroyed.
The gunfire had already stopped.
Fortunately, the machine wasn’t that big. It was a size that could easily be packed into a backpack.
He ripped off the machine from which mana flowed and put it in his backpack.
When I put the machine in my backpack, the swirling mana stopped.
“no way?”
Kyunghoon looked at the Expo Park.
The monster that was destroying Hanbit Tower was looking this way.
*
The mana flowing from the nest stopped.
Mana disappearing was something that had never happened since the nest was built.
Thanks to that mana, I, who was just a beast, was able to evolve this much.
If more time passed, he could stand shoulder to shoulder with monarchs from other worlds.
Kaaaaagh!
The monster screamed, not howled.
[Everyone go to the nest! Now!]
At the same time, the monster flapped its wings. It was the first best move since the war.
Quang!
With a single flap of wings, the half-destroyed Hanbit Tower was torn apart and blown away. The monster birds nearby were also caught in the gust and thrown backwards along with the trees.
Quang!
A sound was heard piercing the air.
The king of the monster birds, who had not yet become a monarch, was shot towards the nest.
Following the king, other monster birds flew towards the nest.
The monster, who quickly returned to the nest with a desperate wish, fell into despair when he saw the nest.
The nest had turned into a mess.
The nest they worked so hard to build was torn apart, revealing the bottom, and the human machine containing the mana stones hidden under the nest was no longer visible.
The monster lost his mind. Black feathers flew up.
phut! phut! phut!
They ate raw fish like crazy on the nest.
Wow! Clink!
The tiles on the exterior wall of the building and the barely surviving glass windows were completely shattered by the flapping wings.
Kwakwakwakwa.
Glass and tiles poured down like rain on the ground.
Kaaaaagh!
The monster didn’t stop there. The monster gave orders to the clan.
[find! Search the entire building! They probably haven’t escaped yet!]
Caw! Caw! Caw!
The monster birds, unable to disobey the king’s orders, jumped towards the building where the nest was.
Shoo!
I squeezed myself into the window of the building through the pouring tiles and pieces of glass.
Some monster birds were hit by falling tiles and crashed into the walls of buildings.
But the monster birds had no intention of stopping.
Even after destroying the office and trapping them in the hallway, the monster birds began searching the inside of the building.
*
Boom kwa kwa kwa.
Kyunghoon looked up with a tired face.
The entire building was covered with the sound of the wind and the screams of monster birds.
The elevator shaft was not only filled with dust, but also had rocks falling down.
He almost jumped down the elevator shaft, but the speed at which the monsters returned was much faster than he expected.
Moreover, the fact that all those big monster birds were jumping into the building was beyond my expectations.
Too many monster birds came in.
In the end, something other than rocks fell as well.
Quite a sum!
A black bird had fallen into the elevator shaft.
Suddenly!
I hurriedly swung my sword and killed the falling monster bird, but this monster bird could not have been the last.
-Setting is complete. Please step away.
After installing the last explosive on the elevator wall, Kyung-hoon hurried out of the elevator shaft.
thud!
Meanwhile, another monster bird fell to the floor of the elevator.
Although it couldn’t move immediately due to shock, the monster bird screamed when it saw Kyung-hoon.
Kaaaaagh!
Just looking at it, it was a call that Kyung-hoon had been found.
The movement of the monster birds heard from above became busier.
Everyone seemed to be running down the elevator shaft.
Kyung-hoon turned around, leaving the monster bird standing up.
-Blast it.
Kyung-hoon gave instructions to Eve and left the strategic headquarters.
bang!
At the same time, an explosive exploded in the elevator shaft. The monster that was trying to escape through the passage was caught in the explosion.
The monster survived the explosion, but could not survive the collapsing concrete pile.
Crrrrr.
A pile of concrete poured into the elevator shaft.
The elevator shaft collapsed due to the explosion. The monster birds that entered the elevator shaft were also buried in the concrete pile.
The monster birds that followed them also had to stamp their feet while looking at the collapsed passageway.
Kyung-hoon headed to the emergency cave he came in from.
If it were possible to move between dimensions, all you had to do was run away to the original world. However, since I had just used space movement, dimensional movement was impossible. I had to avoid the angry monsters until dimensional travel became possible.
He ran out of the cave.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-dak.
I saw a dead awakened person leaning against a wall in the distance.
And there was a person standing next to him. It was a middle-aged man with his sword on the ground and blood streaming from his mouth.
Kyunghoon slowed down and eventually stopped.
The distance from the middle-aged man is about 10 meters. It was neither close nor far.
The man wearing the old uniform looked surprised when he saw Kyung-hoon.
“It’s a person. A living person. “I’m glad everything happened.”
He stuttered and opened his mouth. Every time I spoke, blood flowed from my mouth.
The man continued speaking with earnest eyes.
“I can’t believe I met someone like this. Just a little help…”
His words became slower and slower, and at some point he stopped.
The man’s face, distorted by pain, became expressionless. He bent down and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Kyung-hoon . I nodded. It felt like a bird was moving its head.
“Why did you get caught? Was it awkward because it’s been so long?”
To be honest, it wasn’t that awkward. If it had been any other time, Kyung-hoon might have been fooled.
But he had already had a similar experience. There was no way he wouldn’t be wary of a person alone in a place like this.
‘Only this way, even if I found a real person, I would be suspicious.’
For a moment, a stray thought passed through Kyung-hoon’s mind.
But his body began to properly prepare for battle. He
held the pistol in his left hand and poured mana into the sword he was holding in his other hand.
He had already dealt with the doppelganger. The doppelganger. Dealing with was no different from dealing with a human awakened person.
“Have you ever seen our clan somewhere? Where did you come from?”
This doppelgänger seemed to have nothing to do with the doppelgänger I saw at the airport.
‘So you’re saying there could be more doppelgangers elsewhere?’
Kyung-hoon’s expression darkened. Even if he met a human, they might all be doppelgängers. This
was bad news for him, who had thought that there might be a living human somewhere.
“He’s a silent human. Then I’ll just kill him.”
This monster didn’t seem to have any questions, and
it grinned, baring its teeth. With an expressionless face and a smiling mouth, there was nothing like a horror movie.
There was no reason to keep watching horror movies. Kyung-hoon fired his pistol at the monster.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!
It was like firing a machine gun.
Twelve bullets rained down on the monster.
The startled monster swung its sword, but only blocked one or two bullets.
The rest crashed into the monster’s body.
Ting! Ting! Ting!
“Isn’t it pierced?”
Kyung-hoon, who was about to throw himself away after shooting, suddenly stopped.
All the bullets that hit the doppelganger’s body bounced off.
Kyung-hoon couldn’t understand. The doppelganger I met before had good recovery, but its body and defenses were very weak.
However, the doppelganger in front of me blocked all the mana bullets with its body.
“You really fought against our clan. Where did you meet? North? Or across the sea? “It’s been so long since I turned into a human that I don’t know where my clan has settled.”
The doppelganger nodded again and raised his sword.
“Do you think you could have destroyed the soldiers and awakened people with the weaknesses of that clan? The trait of the human I cloned is the shield. “It wasn’t easy to find someone with the shield trait among the awakened people in the command center.”
Was it because it had been so long since I became human? He was a monster who loved to talk a lot.
“Then shall we try feeding blood to this sword again?”
The monster thrust its sword forward.
It was a sword with an inscription written on the blade.
Admiral Yi Sun-sin’s famous saying, [Immediate death in life, immediate death in life].
It was another Samjeonggeom.
The mana stone embedded in the hilt of the sword shed light, and the inscription on the blade began to glow.
It was not an ordinary phrase. And it was not an ordinary Samjeonggeom.
Mana began to swirl from the sword.
