Dozens of tanks the size of buildings go down the road in a line. There were no lane boundaries because of the size of the tanks.
After riding for a while, they arrived at a city with no life to be found as per usual.
“Stop.”
Lifers reverse their tanks at Tyrant’s signal.
These large tanks will draw too much attention, so they need to go on foot. The Rage guild checks their gear. Their faces are hidden behind helmets, but their expressions are unusually grim. Even Tyrant retreated from his madness and acted with caution.
“That’s the axis.”
As a result of calculating the activity radius of the Hundred Eyes, there is a high chance that the Universe Eye is currently in that city. It could be a base.
Tyrant destroyed the Hundred Eyes in order to hide the Rage guild and to lure Cha Jun Sung.
At some point, they used the Hundred Eyes as indicators to find Cha Jun Sung. It had been easy to find the Hundred Eyes because they had micro reconnaissance robots everywhere.
That’s how they calculated the radius and arrived here.
[Master. We found the Universe Eye 600m above sea level.]
Tyrant smirks.
It is as he expected.
This is where it started.
2 raids, 2000 take the sky. 8 raids, 8000 are on ground.
[Shall we destroy it?]
[Do it.]
Bang bang bang!
A meteor falls from far away. It is a phenomenon that formed as the Universe Eye fell. It lost its functions.
[Split into 2 raids and surround the city. Scourge everything that leaves.]
They block the air from east and west. It’s a small city.
The 2000 Lifers wearing battlesuits in the air couldn’t find anything. They have no doubt that Cha Jun Sung entered in a small group.
‘That’s right. You never liked going around in large groups. That’s the type of guy you are.’
He will postpone progress on Black Devil for now. There is no time limit.
It won’t be too late to finish it even after killing Cha Jun Sung.
There are only gains even if he fails.
Bang bang bang bang!
The small city becomes completely devastated due to weapons of mass destruction like white phosphorus shells and cluster shots. The fire power becomes concentrated, creating a big explosion. The buildings didn’t just come down, they were reduced to ashes. Mutants also disappeared. That kind of fire power would be dangerous even for a level B Lifer.
It would have little effect on Cha Jun Sung and his party members, but he isn’t trying to kill them. He is trying to cut off their flow with a surprise attack.
[Go in. Aim for a break.]
The 5 groups that had been surrounding the small city kept closing the distance.
They entered the city and inside the city, they got close enough to see each other. Even still, they couldn’t find Cha Jun Sung.
‘Did I guess wrong? With the route that the Hundred Eyes were destroyed, he should be able to figure out that the person doing it is coming this way…’
Cha Jun Sung will know that someone is destroying his gear. He will definitely be curious, and he could be tracking them instead.
That is this place.
If he came here, they should have met or there should have been a sign that they would run into each other.
The guild members who had been in the sky, came down.
The city is small, so they basically searched the entire place.
Tyrant looked at the buildings nearby.
‘He’s either coming from another region, or he’s hiding somewhere here.’
They just need to wait and see if it’s the former. If it’s the latter…
[Search everything.]
As soon as Tyrant’s search order fell, everyone went in except the 2 raids protecting him.
No. They were about to move.
Rumble.
“Earth – earthquake?”
“This feels similar to the earthquake in my country.”
An earthquake is a natural disaster.
The small city shakes crazily.
The Rage guild members aren’t taken aback. They would have been scared if they had been bare bodied, but they trusted that they could take on even nature if they were in their battlesuits.
The earthquake became stronger and cracks began to form on the surface like a web.
Tyrant watched and decided to get away. If the ground breaks and crumbles away, the guild power will be scattered.
As if it read Tyrant’s mind, the ground fell away before he could give his order.
It fell deep.
Boom boom boom!
The Rage guild members turned on their boosters and maintained their balance. They increased their output and flew high.
“Phew! It looks like it could be hundreds of meters deep.”
One of the guild members whistles and changed his view to night mode, looking down into the abyss.
