Chapter 111 (2/2)
No matter how weak they are, there is no chance of winning against such numbers.
“Come on!”
The battlesuit’s sensor becomes saturated. There is no use for it to mark that any one thing is somewhere because the mutants are everywhere. Everywhere she looks, is an enemy.
“Ha ha ha!”
Violet belted out a hair-raising laugh and swept the area she decided on. It seems reckless, but she is Empress of Light who is called a crazy woman.
***
“Wow!”
Park Jin Hyuk arrived first and made an interjection. Looking down from the building roof, the neighborhood below is 5 minutes from chaos.
Tens of thousands of mutants are running at something.
They are covering the floor and building. The only thing they cannot spread out over is the sky. Cha Jun Sung has never seen so many mutants in any mission he has been in either.
Skilled Lifers depreciate level 1 and 2 mutants as underlings.
But can they say that when they see this? The battlesuit’s energy and stamina from body modification will run out before they can annihilate the mutants.
“Aha! Die!”
The spear’s trajectory goes through the air and that siege spreads in waves.
“Who is that woman? She laughs while killing mutants. She must be crazy.”
“How would I know?”
Cha Jun Sung feigned ignorance when Park Jin Hyuk asked him. This is to be his first time seeing Violet as well. He cannot act like he knows who she is.
‘She’s getting pushed back.’
Violet is being overwhelmed. They had come running as soon as they heard the explosion, but it had taken a few hours. It seems like the battle has gotten pretty far along in that time.
The amount of corpses around her is increasing. It is like they are piling up. But more came running at her, stepping over the dead ones.
“Empress of Light?”
Koharu watches Violet with her sharp eyes. She recognizes her. Her incisive spearmanship and anomalous attacks, even her flaming madness.
On the premise this is a woman, this can only be one person.
Cha Jun Sung pretended to be surprised enough. He has poor acting skills, but Koharu did not notice. He could not handle doing something he was not used to.
“Woah! I’ve heard about her. She’s the top female ranker.”
Koharu glared. Park Jin Hyuk flinched and pretended to do something else.
Whether with men or women, no one likes to be compared to others. Though indirectly, he had noted that Violet is stronger than Koharu.
“How dangerous. She’s a candle flame in front of wind.”
“We’ll have to help.”
They are looking for opportunities with levels 3 and 4 mutants.
If they launch a surprise in this chaos, they will be driven to defense at once. Park Jin Hyuk knows how to read a war situation as well. When he looks at it, it is dangerous.
“The mutants look like some kind of human army. They’re moving systematically.”
Cha Jun Sung was thinking the same thing. It may be dizzying, but it is in an orderly fashion.
Mutant is an umbrella term that humans have named them. They too are of different types and take prey or attack. They need to consider the possibility that there could be mutants that take command.
“Odin. Search for a mutant showing unique behavior. You guys too.”
It is more effective to have all 4 people do it rather than doing it by himself.
-[Northeast direction 120m, there is an unidentifiable signal coming from a mutant on the facade of a towering building. It seems to be of the systemic family.]
The helpers check the location. It comes up on the screen inside their helmets.
“Karakan.”
Cha Jun Sung saw the mutant and said its name. It is weak in battle, but it is a tricky one to deal with. Higher levels cannot withstand its control.
“It must have put in months of work to control such a large scale of mutants?”
There are several tens of thousands. Not even a level 6 would be able to get all of them under control in an instant. Since it is lacking in ability, it has worked with time and effort.
“Jin Hyuk. Check the mutants on the roof. Shoot and kill as many as you can.”
“Okay!”
Park Jin Hyuk stares at the battlefield. It is a horde. The entire city is a target. There is no issue for Kyoko, who is not a sniper, either. They will hit their targets even if their eyes are closed.
“Koharu, kill the level 3 and 4s.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Me?”
Cha Jun Sung put the Wolf Kill over his shoulder. People should by all means do what they are best at. If roles become warped, it would be better not to do anything.
“Wreak havoc. Hercules, block anything coming at Jin Hyuk from the center.”
“Mission confirmed!”
Cha Jun Sung flies up. The impact from his departure cracks the roof. Koharu looked at the remaining 2 people and dove in among the mutants.
“Kyoko, do you know how to snipe?”
“No.”
“Just shoot.”
Park Jin Hyuk took the sniper rifle he used in the beginning out of his space compression bag. The power is okay. This is enough to take out this swarm.
