The forest pushes through like a wave in the direction that Cha Jun Sung’s group moves. It looks like this is happening because of the Blade Weasels moving together on a large scale. They cannot be attacked in a state where they are not ready. They need at least a couple of hours.

“I’ll follow behind quickly.”

“Okay!”

Cha Jun Sung put his booster in reverse. The Blade Weasels were about to follow the moving party members but stopped when they saw Cha Jun Sung coming at them.

As soon as Cha Jun Sung landed among them, they encircle him. They blocked the ground and the tops of trees. They will attack him from the top if they see him try to fly again.

A path opens up. Heinkel, with grey and distinct white fur, walks out on 4 legs. Its erect tail expresses its pride and confidence. It permeates various feelings. There is no way to define it with one. Curiosity, murder, rage, surprise.

[Lifer Cha Jun Sung, do you have a plan? The odds are not in your favor.]

Odin is warning him. Even one level 7 is a handful, but it is crazy to walk into a place with hundreds of level 5s and 6s.

“Shut up.”

Cha Jun Sung releases the helmet. He feels refreshed by the smell of grass. Wouldn’t it be better if the Blade Weasels, baring their teeth in murder, were not there?

“You live such short lives.”

Only Cha Jun Sung’s eyes awakened. He turned off a part of the battlesuit’s functions. It is okay to awaken just a part like his eyes. It is okay as long as he does not display it obviously. A bizarre and indescribable aura wraps around Heinkel and the Blade Weasels. Unless Heinkel is stupid, it would have realized that Cha Jun Sung is a higher predator. There is no way for it not to know.

“You’re frozen? Kik!”

He did not talk to Heinkel in mutant language. It is dangerous to leave traces. He uses what he has from an appropriate standpoint.

Other Blade Weasels seemed to show fear of Cha Jun Sung, but Horned Tail Heinkel overcame that fear. It is doing its level’s worth.

‘It’s not working.’

He wanted to make Heinkel retreat too, but that will not happen just by frightening it. It is right to take it on with strength since it is a level 7.

‘I won’t be able to hold out if I get attacked by this many without awakening.’

There are too many of them, though it is in his favor that he dominated the aura. He just needs to buy a little time. He will run away before they stop fearing him.

Woong!

Cha Jun Sung wore his helmet again. The first impression worked, so it will be embedded in their brains. They cannot keep holding a staring contest.

‘Where should I get into?’

The battlesuit system analyzes the Blade Weasels’ enclosed network. It is searching for a gap. It is not easy because they have blocked him so tightly that there isn’t even space for water to leak through.

[Northeast 19.2%, Southwest 17.8%. Other places are under 10%, so those 2 places are currently the ones with the highest chances of escape.]

Odin took the functions in the battlesuit and Cha Jun Sung’s mysterious ability into account to calculate the probability. Even the higher places did not reach over 20%.

Life Mission officials know that Cha Jun Sung is not normal. Directly? No, indirectly. There is no way for them not to know. He either turned off or removed all battlesuit functions that analyze the user’s state. Just physically, he surpasses the 6th stage of body modifications.

There is no doubt that there have been changes since he fused with the Oriax and was released. They honestly wanted to perform in-depth examinations and tests on him, but they have received a sample and he picked up his cut off relationship with his colleagues, so it is not easy to enforce this.

So there was an order from the top for Odin to just watch over him and not to engage. Cha Jun Sung did not think that they would be entirely clueless either. They are blindfolding each other.

[Jun Sung, how’s the situation?]

[Not good. How about Kyoko? Are you done setting up the equipment?]

[She’s receiving treatment now. I think the basic setting will be done soon, but we’re stuck at the vertical launch device. We still need more time.]

[Alright. I’ll hold out for as long as I can and then get out. Just give me a signal when you do it.]

As top level stores opened, Lifers’ mission standards transformed from fighting with guns and knives to strategy reminiscent of war.

Weapons of mass destruction are sold starting with level C, and there are tons of weapons that could kill thousands of lower level mutants with one hit. Missions are battlefields where they put their lives on the line. They need to be fully prepared. Cha Jun Sung’s group also has powerful firearms that can sweep through a large number of enemies.

“Play with me for a little. Slowly.”

Tutututung!

Cha Jun Sung fires his reinforced rifle. He did not aim at just one place. He is blocked from everywhere. Wherever he shoots, there will be a hit.
