50 Episode 50 - Flame-spewing Crocodile, Part II (2/2)

Except for Kim Tae-hoon, he had the highest rank of Energy in the Mac Guild, and he escaped the fear of the Flame-spewing Crocodile faster than anyone else. At the same time, the Energy of the struggle to overcome the fear forced him to energize his whole body.

He felt as if he were high on some drug. Above all, there was no hesitation in his eyes anymore.

”Come on! Come on! Let's make a new movie here today! Come on!”

Bang Hyun-wook was not the only one not hesitating. In the building next to the road, a few Awakeners were ready to launch a street war against the Wolf-crocodiles, and they there was little hesitation among them.

Of course, there was a reason.

Tutu, tutu!

”Fire! Do not spare it!”

”Keep firing!”

They had a powerful weapon, a gun!

”We can eat if we kill them all! Kill another one!”

”Here is the one with orange eyes!”

They had received sweet permission to take all the things they killed.

Of course, the biggest reason was something else.

”Oh, my God!”

”What happened?”

”It's down, it's down!”

Kim Tae-hoon was here, and they were bound to win this battle.

7.

The shell of the Panzerfaust created a deep wound on the back of the Flame-spewing Crocodile.

Of course, it screamed. This scream was not to create fear, but a naive, painful one.

Kaaah…

By the time the scream began to turn into a fear full of anger, a grenade came into the giant snout, was caught in its throat, and then exploded.

Bang!

The explosion was not loud, so it was even more frightening. The intense explosion had only hovered in its throat.

The explosion took its voice for a while. It also took away its sense and reason. Its brain shook inside its skull, and all five senses were panicked for a moment by intense sound and shock. In such upheaval, a reason could not play a role.

At that moment, all it could do was to lower its posture and crouch down like an armadillo.

It was a filthy, miserable thing to do, but it was the only thing it could do instinctively.

Kim Tae-hoon hurt its back with the shell on what was called the wing bone, not the other place.

'As I expected, it has the same reaction as a Wolf-crocodile.'

He tested the Wolf-crocodiles several times to see what instinctive action they took to survive when they were in crisis or seriously wounded.

He now knew that if a sudden attack was fatal, it would coil and crouch with its body as low as possible, like a snake. So, he hurt its back!

If it crouched, the wounds there would be open!

At the same time, he dissected a Wolf-crocodile and was able to gauge where its heart was.

The wound would be open, and beyond that, its heart would be beating. It would be pounding even more violently to live.

A Sword struck down in a lightning-like strike to stop that beat.

”It's down! The captain did it!”

The soldier holding the receiver of the wired radio reported to Jang Sung-hoon with a bright smile. However, Jang did not smile brightly as soon as he heard the report. Instead, he told the wire carrier, ”Get the situation under control, send a search party to check the surrounding monsters, and then count the number of the victims and notify the hospital.”

”Yes, sir!”

Jang Sung-hoon, who gave the order, recalled the rank on his uniform at that moment.

Corporal.

That was his rank. He was a low rank. And that rank has not changed much, even now.

Of course, the Mac Guild was not an army, so rank was useless and meaningless. But even so, it was certainly funny that he had virtually the right of command now.

'So the lower-ranked ones look forward to war, and when war breaks out, if they survive, they can be generals, regardless of ranks.'

The humor that started it did not last long. His expression firmed up.

Whatever his rank was, it was all right. What was important was that he should now serve as a staff officer. It was time to worry about the settlement of victory, not the cheers for victory like a staff officer.

'Boss is now a ridiculous monster, firing an anti-tank rocket while levitating, throwing grenades... He is an Apache helicopter!'

In fact, he thought this battle would be very difficult. Even though they had far more powerful firepower then they had when they had faced the Black Snake, the enemy was also leading hundreds of monsters, unlike the time of the Black Snake. Moreover, the presence of fear was very threatening.

No matter how strong the firepower was, everything would be neutralized when exposed to the fear. In addition, an army of ordinary people in front of monsters was like a candlelight in front of a wind.

'Well, the easier the better.'

But the battle ended more easily than he thought. If he thinks about the reason, it was because of the full preparation, but the fundamental reason was Kim Tae-hoon.

Kim was willing to make the experience and lessons learned in the battle with the Black Snake his own.

'He's great.'

And he would be stronger again from today, because he would eat the monster stone of the Flame-spewing Crocodile and gain new power and strength. Furthermore, it was the way Kim Tae-hoon chose to survive. Therefore, Jang Sung-hoon was able to easily predict Kim's next option.

'Rather, Kim Hyun-seok?'

Kim Hyun-seok was lucky enough to find Kim Tae-hoon, the luck of the heaven; he was able to become a survivor, not a victim. At the price of a cup of ramen and some instant rice, he confessed everything he had seen and heard in Gwangmyeong City, and what he knew. There was a great deal of information he had given.

'The factory that makes solar power plants is located in Gwangmyeong City!'

There was a factory in Gwangmyeong City, which produced solar power plants and was quite large.

It was a fact that the public did not know. If they were interested in it, you would not be the public. Of course, neither Kim nor Jang knew. None of the survivors knew that.

'We must secure it.'

That's why it was even more valuable information. The information was valuable enough to change the future of Mac Guild and survivors.

Without electricity, you could not use the technology of civilization. But if you steadily collected electricity through solar power plants, the quality of life and the probability of survival would increase significantly.

Therefore, Kim Tae-hoon would have made their next goal securing a solar power plant.

'We have to secure it definitely… but there is a problem.'

The problem was that there was a green-grade monster in Gwangmyeong City now.

In fact, Jang would not go to Gwangmyeong City.

It would be a suicidal act to enter a monster den they knew nothing about, only that it was different from the monsters they had been dealing with.

But Kim Tae-hoon would go, as he knew that he could not avoid the danger of it coming, by closing his eyes.

'I know what it feels like to have Superman as my boss.'

Jang shook his head, took out Daedongyeojido again, and looked at the area of ​​Gwangmyeong City.

”Uh?”

He was frightened at that moment.

”Uh, where did it go?...”
