On December 31st, 2016, mankind first encountered the monsters. Therefore, mankind did not know that monsters were stronger and more clever than they thought, and humans did not know anything about monsters.
Kim Tae-hoon was the same.
It was in the battle with the Black Snake that he keenly felt it. He did not know that the Black Snake was so strong and clever, and he faced it with only the Sword and the power of his Telekinesis.
The result? He almost died. He was lucky to survive, and the battle with the Black Snake was a mess from beginning to end.
He had no desire to repeat that same mistake against the Flame-spewing Crocodile.
'I need more definite and thorough investigation and inquiry.'
So he studied. He could not dissect the Flame-spewing Crocodiles, so he dug into the habits, behavior patterns, and body structure of a Wolf-crocodile similar to it.
'I need a new manual.'
He tried something new that could be done with Telekinesis. It was not enough to use his Telekinesis to handle weapons freely.
It was necessary to make some of the infinite possibilities of the Telekinesis into a certain ability for himself, not just a possibility. Of course, time was limited, so he had to choose one of the possibilities.
'The firepower is sufficient, and I need a way to use it, accurately and surely.'
The way he finally chose was levitation.
'If I could fly in the air, then I could fight like a combat helicopter. It would be an unlimited battle in space.'
If he, who had a strong enough level of firepower from the supplies of the Ammunition Company and the subordinate units of the 17th Division, could fly in the sky, he could be compared to a combat helicopter, in fact.
It was not easy, of course. If he could have levitated every time he decided to do with his Telekinesis, he would have done it earlier.
But his troubles were not for long.
'I'll do it anyway.'
There was no choice. If he did it, he would survive, or he would die. So he did it.
Pushu!
He pulled the trigger on the Panzerfaust 3, while standing in the sky.

The purpose of anti-tank rockets was not to shatter tanks. A huge anti-tank rocket mounted on a combat helicopter could do that, but you could not hope for that much firepower on an anti-tank rocket used by the infantry.
A tank is not just a moving mass of steel, it is like a small fortress. If an infantryman could have completely destroyed such a tank with a rocket launcher on his shoulder, no country would have made a tank costing $5 million per unit.
Because of this, antitank rockets focused on penetration, not destruction. The first goal is to make a hole in the surface of the tanks, whose steel armor was more than just thick.
The shell with a protruding snout, just like a stork, used by Panzerfaust 3 was the focus of this purpose.
Pushu!
The shell was fired in a burst.
The target was the Flame-spewing Crocodile!
Kr?
It only noticed the presence of the shell after the stork-end had already touched its body.
Boom! Boom! There was a loud explosion.
But, it was not just an explosion.
As the explosive force of the bomb exploded in front of the target, it was compressed into a stream like a water pressure cutter, and it pierced its tough skin like a pointed spear.
Kaaaaaah!, its scream rang out.
Kim Tae-hoon smiled bitterly, looking at the scene with black Eyes. 'I can't even laugh.'
It was definitely a severe wound, but it was not a fatal blow to send the Flame-spewing Crocodile to death at once. The scream was just for pain, not death throes.
'It was hit by a rocket with the power to break through the surface of a tank, but it was only wounded badly.'
Kim Tae-hoon, who knew the power of modern weapons and had even fired a Panzerfaust 3 against a living human, had no choice but to smile bitterly.
But the bitter laugh was not long, and he was not disappointed.
Instead of being disappointed, he held the Panzerfaust 3 in his right hand and used his left hand to pull a grenade out of his waistband.
Ting! The safety clip of the grenade was thrown off by itself, and the safety pin immediately followed.
He threw it lightly toward the huge mouth of the Crocodile struggling in pain.
'The moment I hear the explosion, I will move.'
At the same time, Kim Tae-hoon thought of a Sword coveting the blood of any target at any time, waiting for his command at this moment.
Bang!
He heard the grenade go off.

Burreung!
As soon as they were exposed to the fear, cars carrying the paralyzed artillerymen started running along the cleanly maintained road.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The pack of Wolf-crocodiles began to run like crazy to catch the cars fleeing before them.
Kya! Kya!
During the chase that began, some of the Wolf-crocodiles moved toward something they felt in the buildings near the road.
Some of the Wolf-crocodiles with keen senses did not miss out on the presence of those hiding in the building to buy time, including the claymore explosion.
The first thing that the Wolf-crocodiles that came into the building encountered was a huge fire that an Awakener blew out of his mouth.
Fufu!
The fire instantly engulfed the bodies of the two Wolf-crocodiles that entered the entrance carelessly.
Kyaaah!
Two Wolf-crocodiles were screaming at the fire that had stuck to their fur and the terrible pain that it produced. The pain was not over there.
”Throw!” Two water balloons flew in from the distance, which the Awakener who blew out
The balloon burst upon contact with the bodies of the Wolf-crocodiles writhing crazily in the fire, and it soaked the Wolf-crocodiles with what they were carrying inside.
Woosh!
The blazing flames made it clear that what was inside the balloons was not water. It was lighter oil!
The water-mixed lighter oil burned the skins of the Wolf-crocodiles.
Kyaa!
As the two Wolf-crocodiles who had become fireballs, were fussing at the entrance, a new Wolf-crocodile appeared.
It met the most terrible death.
Crunch!
A giant hammer that struck it like a lightning bolt shattered its head in a single stroke.
”Uh-cha!” The man who had killed the Wolf-crocodile in one blow was Bang Hyun-wook.
