Chapter 17 (2/2)
‘It’s still not enough’
The Awakened had appeared to combat humanity’s new enemy, the monsters
Simply put, the only means of survival for humans is for the Awakened to kill the monsters
It was only natural that the Awakened would dispose of them
‘Dragon, with this level of power……’
Dragon
An incredibly powerfulthere
Had Kion, he would have opted to fairly distribute theall of them
If he had gathered the Awakened and tried to improve all of their stats and overall power, he could have created a powerful roup
He would have distributed the monster stones under the premise of fair distribution
But if he were to try and create such a group now, it would take more than ten years to build up everyone’s stats to a level where they could take care of the dragon
There was no guarantee that the dragon would remain still
‘ …… This level is not high enough’
There’s no guarantee that only one dragon exists or that there aren’t any other insanely strong monsters
As a result, it would be inefficient to make a team
It was so extreme
A hundred well made arrows, not thousands, and a sharp knife Those were things they needed
The clan that Kim Tae Hoon created was a tool to create such a sharp blade
‘This a’
Without a doubt, Kim Tae Hoon will take possession of most of the monster stones in the future
However, if the , Ki like this and he wouldn’t even bother to do this
‘I can’t expect any aid to come from the state’
By this point, Kim Tae Hoon had abandoned any expectations he had placed on the military
‘If the Capital Defense Command has fallen, then the majority of the rear units would have collapsed as well Only the frontliners will survive fighting against the monsters, but it’s very likely that they are isolated It’ll be hard to stay here without any supplies’
We can’t expect anything from anyone, and have to assume the worst
‘If the front line collapses during this situation…… ’
The worst of the worst
‘ …… If the front lines collapse and the monsters froainst a cliff’s edge’
Considering the worst case scenario, Ki on his right hand
‘The only way to survive would be to climb the cliff face’
It was enlightenh numerous battlefields
There was nothingout of your ass
Sahter to appear It was like endlessly waiting for a winning lottery ticket
‘If you want to live, then you have to personally pave a path for survival’
Like that, Kim Tae Hoon woke up from his reverie
”Attention “
Those who had been trying to avoid Kiaze suddenly focused on him
“After 2 hours, I will go and sweep away the re monsters in the vicinity of the army base Your primary objective is the armory After you secure the armory, stock up on supplies Your secondary objective is to help clear away the monsters in the base Kill the monsters and retrieve the monster stones from the corpses Afterwards we’ll take a break”
Having finished his commands, Kim Tae Hoon looked towards Ahn Sun Mi
‘‘Ahn Sun Mi, how are the wounded?”
Having taken care of the wounded, Ahn Sun Mi replied with an astonished expression
”There are no proble”
She couldn’t believe what she was seeing even as she talked to him
Those erechunks of flesh and those ounds that would leave pere would have recovered after a fewthe troll’s flesh on their wounds, astounding Ahn Sun Mi despite the years of her life she had dedicated to the medical field
Regardless, Kim Tae Hoon did not take Ahn Sun Mi’s mind into consideration
“Second Lieutenant, what about the keys to the armory? “
“I have secured it, sir”
‘‘I’ll take any questions now”
This was the first time that Kim Tae Hoon had offered to answer any questions
nobody raised their hands
Because they were soldiers
Soldiers don’t ask questions There were only two things, commands and actions
If a soldier raised their hands in this situation……
‘‘I have a question What co the base, and then resting, sir?”
“I have not decided yet”
“What if we move to Bucheon Stadium, sir? “
The speaking party had already lost thea soldier
”And the reason being?”
“There is a museum there sir If there are relics like the kind that boss talked about earlier, ah is it ok to call you boss? Well anyways, isn’t it likely that the relics that boss talked about would be there? There is also a bow exhibit there”
Kim Tae Hoon looked at the person who spoke
He was a young man in his early twenties of short stature as ive off a sense of reliability, it made one want to be wary around him
”Your name? “
“My na Hoon I’ve turned twenty-two years old since the new year passed
His na Hoon
“What was your occupation before the army?”
“Ah, that’s…… I’ve done a few different odd jobs here and there, I didn’t have a specific career…… “
“Just tell s you’ve done “
“I’ve forged art pieces, dealt in hot goods, and dabbled in s”
His profession was that of a criminal
