Chapter 226 (2/2)
They have items that they need on the spot in their space compression bags, but they need to use what can be supplied easiest at the end so that they can last for a long time.
They can’t provide time for the sharks to get near while they reinforce their supplies.
[Warning! Below sea level! Multiple enemies appearing below the Albatrus!]
“Fuck!”
“Damn!”
Bang!
Lifers curse. It seems like they are gathered together at random, but they are divided into forces and they each have their own roles. Two of the forces attacking the front from the top, 200 Lifers turn their boosters on and dove into the sea without delay.
They are incomparably less compared to those at sea level, but another group of about 5000 sharks is coming up at them.
Even though they try to fire at them in order to stop their approach and to decrease their numbers, it isn’t possible to do with 200 people. But that doesn’t mean they can call for backup. It is worse at sea level.
“Damn it! Die!”
“I’m going!”
15 parties of the 200 Lifers, 150 people took out vibrating weapons. 50 people are still pulling the trigger from a distance.
Bang bang bang!
500 mutants, most of which are levels 3 and 4 with very few levels 5 and 6s collide with 150 level B Lifers who are stronger than level 6s.
Dozens of mutants per person. They would have been fighting with easy steps and weapon switches if they had been on land, but this is the ocean.
Lifers couldn’t remain whole with the onslaught of sharks coming from all directions.
One Lifer lost an arm while fighting level 5 and 6s alone. He would have been shredded already if it hadn’t been for his battlesuit.
The Lifers are only thinking one thing. Not to die even if their arms and legs get cut off.
And they were hoping for the Rankers to hurry up and end this hell of a fight for them. But the place that was worse than sea level was the Rankers’ battlefield.
Lifers and mutants alike couldn’t approach that battlefield.
There are 22 people. It is a small number, and they are taking on a pair of Deep-Sea Teeth and 7 level 7s.
***
Ghost Gun Lim Si Hyun moves through the ocean with his revolver, an automatic pistol and deathblow for control rather than killing.
Shadow moving.
It is a skill that Ghost Gun’s 9 combination battlesuit has. The combinations are not for attacking by foot, but shadow moving focused on evasion.
Papapat!
As he retreats, a pointy dorsal fin is following him. It goes through the water as it chases the shadow moving.
Lim Si Hyun didn’t look forward as he ran. There are no obstacles in his way, so he can move backwards while attacking with his automatic pistol.
Level 7 Blade Shark.
It is a nimble mutant that uses its sharp dorsal fin to cut its opponent rather than the shark specialty of ripping them apart. The dorsal fin is 5m high and more than 20m long. Looking at just its back, it is a giant sword. It’s big enough to sink a large yacht.
Lim Si Hyun quickly changes the magazines for his automatic pistol and revolver. It’s a pistol, but it’s as big as a person. The weight of the two guns combined is close to 100kg.
“Leave those to them. I’ll take this one.”
Lim Si Hyun focused on his opponent, the Blade Shark. A special mission was activated as soon as Cha Jun Sung was attacked by the Deep-Sea Teeth.
There had been a signal for the start of the battle. Lifers immediately scrambled, and hordes of sharks came in from everywhere within an hour.
The pair of Deep-Sea Teeth, like a trisection of the Pacific Ocean predators they are, they have countless underlings. The baby is in pain, trying to regenerate. They need to go help it, but there are too many obstacles stopping them.
The swarm of sharks that responded to the hair raising roar of the level 8 took on the level B Lifers and Albatrus. There is nothing they can do.
A few Rankers tried to help, but their situation isn’t great either. In the swarm of sharks, there are 7 level 7s as well.
They were all sharks and as much as they looked different, they had various abilities. If there are fast and sharp ones like Blade Shark, there are also ones that are slow but with excellent defense capabilities.
So the Rankers each took charge of the mutants that they could handle, and lured them away to an area where they could fight comfortably. Each fought their best. Cha Jun Sung took one level 8. The other 13 people took another one. Kyoko is a level A Lifer, but she cannot fight because she is a medic.
Papapat!
The shadow moving becomes elaborate. Lim Si Hyun’s body fades and divides into dozens. He hadn’t really been divided into pieces.
The Blade Shark wasn’t taken aback. It just saw everything as the enemy and attacked. There is one main body, and the rest is an effect. It was in vain.
Boom!
The wave that the Deep-Sea Teeth generated split the vacuum wave that Cha Jun Sung’s Hades created, creating an eardrum shaking roar.
Lim Si Hyun turned his head subconsciously while focusing on the Blade Shark. His attention turned without his will. Cha Jun Sung is taking on a level 8 that they could not take on while on land, in the sea.
He doesn’t retreat. He is confronting it head on.
And next to them, 13 Rankers who are geared more toward group action are confusing a giant Deep-Sea Teeth.
Among them is Park Jin Hyuk’s group, Cha Jun Sung’s party members.
“With a level A store… is this the limit?”
The standard of level A is pioneering.
They cannot take on level 8 with this kind of strength. They need to become complete level S in order to gain the strength to fight against level 8.
He doesn’t know about level 9.
He’s never seen one for himself and even in the virtual version, Cha Jun Sung is the only one who succeeded in a raid. Cha Jun Sung will be able to compare them.
“We’re in the middle.”
The Rankers’ abilities are stuck between levels 7 and 8.
How strong is Cha Jun Sung?
Would he have recovered his abilities from the virtual version? They’ll be able to know by watching him.
