Chapter 179 (2/2)
“Die! You monster!”
A vibrating weapon goes into Red Eye’s thigh. Just by height, he is multiple times taller than Lifers. It is a good location to be stabbed. It seemed to be an attempt at offsetting his mobility. The attempt was good, but the results were bad.
He was fine even after being attacked by Hell Mammoth.
Will his flesh and muscle be cut when a Lifer cuts him?
There’s no chance.
Red Eye waved his hands reflexively. The bones of the Lifer hit broke and he went flying like a pin hit by a bowling ball.
“What level is that!”
“It must be level 7 since it’s a level B mission! Let’s get away from him first!”
Normally, level A should have been applied but the helpers blocked the special mission applicable with Red Eye’s appearance. They completely shattered the rules that had been kept until now. It is a secret that only they know.
Lifers who are able to think quickly, quickly create distance between themselves and Red Eye. The situation has come to this, but there are a lot of them and more are coming in. Their chances of surviving increase if they use other Lifers as shields to buy time. Retreating does not mean that they are no longer fighting either. They will do as much as they can. They are next if their shields are wiped out.
“What’s your goal? Why are you trying to go in this direction?”
Red Eye spoke.
Korean, the human language he learned from Black Demon.
He spoke skillfully because he started learning it from birth. It was not difficult for Lifers to understand what he was saying because they are using their translators.
“You think we’re going because we want to? All we did was advance a little when the mushroom cloud went up, but our return was blocked. And then you came!”
Lifers started yelling. They are not surprised by Red Eye’s ability to speak. There are level 7s that are able to speak in human languages. Even those below are able to communicate if they can learn.
“I’m the one who came? You’re not wrong.”
He had come before the Lifers could do anything. Red Eye himself came to them. But that doesn’t mean he has any intention of apologizing.
‘Was it by force?’
The thought came to Red Eye’s mind.
Lifers are forced to go through missions because of those that play with humans on one side and mutants on the other. He has heard the basic situation from Cha Jun Sung.
‘Rules? That has no meaning. Those guys make changes in whatever way suits them. It gets worse as the difficulty gets higher.’
This is what Cha Jun Sung told him. These people are also in the same situation.
Red Eye knows less about Life Mission than Black Demon does. He only grazed the surface, and Black Demon is the one who heard everything from Cha Jun Sung. It is all doubtful. He can’t tell what is what.
‘I’ll take care of this place first. That’s the right order.’
There’s no change to the fact that he needs to kill these Lifers. When he is finishing up, the other side will be ending as well. The allies’ win is a given.

“Where is he going with that many mutants?”
Odin kept his mouth shut. Even if he knows nothing else, this mission will become a huge controversy once it is over. He can anticipate extreme backlash from Lifers.
But that is all. There can be backlash, but there are no losses for Life Mission. They are not a customer service center that deals with complaints.
Lifers think that they have the upper hand as they cleanse this world, but they are absolutely under them. Even a top expert doing great in a game is over once the operator suspends the account.
Tsk tsk!
Cha Jun Sung tsked at the scene created by the cluster bomb. The mutants that had been coming at him had evaporated within moments.
The mission was not completed. He cannot let a single one get by since it is annihilation. Mutants out of range are still alive and there are those that are even in pretty good shape. The mission is complete once all of those are dead.
It would be nice to take care of everything because it is an advancement mission, but he did not cling to the idea. He did not want to miss his chance of watching this rare sight, but the level 8s that were done with their battles also held him back. If they approach him out of suspicion of the explosion, he needs to run.
“What a waste. I’d dice them up if it weren’t for Parasite King and the guards.”
The only level 8 in good condition is a parasite. Beholder is out of energy and not awakened. To think that he can only observe mutants worth millions of points when they are in bad condition and defenseless.
If he goes the extra mile, he could kill one or two.
After that?
It is fortunate that they do not care about the explosion. They could be choosing to stay together instead of going out on a search because they are in such a bad state.
But if one of them dies, they would not stay still. His location would be revealed and Parasite King or the guards would come chasing him. Beehives are ornamental. They are not there to poke at.
“What can I do here?”
A war between level 9s is going on in Africa. A lot of level 8s followed as well. Missions are strangely concentrated in Africa as well. He cannot figure it out easily because he does not know what the helpers are up to.
He had initially entered out of curiosity. He hadn’t had thoughts of completing the mission. He predicted that something Lifers do not know about is happening inside the missions.
He realized he had been correct when he entered. He quenched about half of his curiosity.
There is nothing he can do. He would be able to do something if he could go into his awakened state, but there are a lot of eyes here. All of the helpers will be looking here.
