56 Team Whiskey 5 (1/2)

Silence and Simon looked to one another and nodded. They prepared their guns before commencing battle. The military operation would end successfully when Han makes it over the rainbow colored lights from the dimensional crack to defeat the Elu mage.

Click.

Simon loaded his R-2. He aimed for the Elu mage's head, but the bullet was blocked by the psychic shield that they had put up.

”So DoMeRa!” (t/n: unknown jargon in Elu language)

The Elu mage shouted as if it anticipated this attack. The Elu warriors that were in hiding jumped out one after another. The patrolling Elus were gathered and numbed near ten.

Bang! Bang!

Silence and Simon calmly bought time while shooting their guns. The guns were effective against the Elu warriors who were unable to use psychic powers. Simon reloaded the magazine of his gun while earnestly waiting for Han's appearance.

'I don't want to fail my first mission. Han.'

Han stood upon the dimensional crack spilling out rainbow colored lights. The poisonous lights were especially concentrated in this area. Gunshot noises sounded intermittently from across the dimensional crack. They were in the middle of combat with enemies. It seems they were trying to buy as much time as they could, as they had originally planned.

GGguuuooo!

The dimensional crack choked Han's neck. Han peered to the bottom of the dimensional crack. This crack was about one kilometer long. The shortest route across the crack was at least a few dozen meters. The depth of it was impossible to estimate, and the only definite thing was that he would die if he fell.

'I just need to cross fifty meters.'

Han took a rough estimate of the distance across. It wasn't too difficult to fly fifty meters while using two airbeats, except that this was on top of the dimensional crack.

Keeeeee.

Han unloaded the two airbeats that he had hung on his hips. The airbeat floated in the air.

'All I need is focus.'

Han mumbed and his eyes flashed. Blue light glowed from his eyes.

Falter.

Han set foot onto the airbeat. He thought he properly used his telekinetic powers to stabilize the airbeat, but the center of gravity had been set incorrectly. Telekinetic powers in this place seemed to follow a different set of laws. If he used fifty percent telekinetic strength, only thirty percent would manifest, but the next moment it would suddenly manifest with seventy percent of the strength. The energy of this place caused total chaos.

'Thankfully, my psychic energy levels are low… so the deviation in energy levels isn't too significant. If Kuro or another person were here, they would have already flew off their airbeats.'

Han moved his next airbeat a step forward. He moved step by step like he was crossing a stone bridge. If it had been the usual circumstances, he would have crossed in no time, but he was full of nerves like he was walking across on a tightrope.

'Walking a tightrope would be easier than this. This is like trying to walk on a tightrope while strong winds blow sporadically.'

Han threw off his helmet. His head felt heavy and it was difficult to perfectly balance his center of gravity. The helmet which dropped down into the cliffs did not make the sound of hitting the ground floor.

”Huu, huu.”

Han tried to catch his breath after he made it half way across. He felt dizzy and wanted to throw up. The blinding rainbow colored lights made it hard to see at all in this place. The lights flashed in rotation, attacking his eyes at every moment.

Guuuooo!

Han slightly lowered himself by bending his hips. A violent wind blew from the bottom of the dimensional crack.

”This is…..”

Han threw up. His legs trembled. He wasn't afraid because of the wind. Something was glaring up at him from the dimensional crack below. The fierce gaze numbed his legs.

'Dreadful.'

An unknown, horrifying energy captured Han. His teeth clattered while a dragon-like being seemed to creep into his mind.

The existence he had only seen through photos and recordings. Human beings will reflexively stiffen in fear as if meeting their natural enemy.

'It's dangerous. This force coming up from below… is probably from a dragon.'

Psykers who are about to face off against dragons would get shot with adrenaline and endorphins before battle. Because of the nature of psykers, they would be completely overtaken by dragon fear in close combat without the borrowed strength of drugs. Han thought of the various facts he learned during his stay in Ark.

'My mind is beginning to numb.'

Han swiftly moved across before the fear would strangle him again. He increased his speed, though this would increase his chance of falling.

'The Elu mage is trying to turn this dimensional crack into a gate. I could feel the dragon's energy seeping out from within. This is a real dragon. If we don't stop the Elu mage here….'

Han's eyes grew wide. This was Sinuiju. The chance the dragon would march forward toward Korea was very high.

Ba-du-duk.

Han firmly bit down onto his thumb. Blood flowed out of his skin. He attempted to distract his mind from the terror which enwrapped this place.

Han only had a few steps remaining now. He had used most of his strength crossing a mere fifty meters. Now he was moving forward on sheer will power. He took out a numbing ampule from his waist pocket. He just had to shoot this into the Elu mage's body.

Han blearily blinked his eyes. Han could see an afterimage of the Elu mage through the pillars of lights streaming out from the crack. The Elu mage didn't even imagine that someone would appear from behind them. It only focused on the enemies attacking from the front.

Weeeng!

Han used his airbeat to take another step and took a huge leap. The airbeat lost balance and fell to the floor. Han jumped out from a stream of light beaming out of the dimensional crack.

He held onto an ampule with his mouth, and pounced onto the defenceless Elu mage's back. The surprise attack shocked the Elu mage, as it erratically moved its body trying to fend itself away from Han. The psychic shield which surrounded the area dissipated.

”SI-LENCE!!”

Han shouted.

Weng! Weng!
