chapter 110
subjugation
In Sunwon’s position, first of all, it was important where they came from.
It could be the same grace, it could be the few remaining Awakened in China, or it could be the troops of another country.
That means you can compromise, you can take it all, and the problem can grow.
However, the former was no matter how much I thought about it.
The reality is that even if one of the 16 strong people living around the Forbidden City, a limited express area, moves, the city on the periphery will be wiped out helplessly.
‘Those who have received grace are definitely not.’
For now, it would be more correct to assume that information about them has spread to other countries.
Near the borders of other countries, such as Shenyang, there were also cities under their influence.
It was not easy to find high-quality Awakeners inland these days, so there were rumors that they were fighting outside the border.
It was a time and situation where enough information could spread.
It was a reasonable decision that the hot-headed foreigners led their forces and destroyed Shenyang City before heading here.
‘Where are you? Those who will enter China for a long time and do this… .’
russia. korea. Japan etc. While many cases passed through Soon-won’s head. The subordinate’s words continued.
“Sunwon. that is… Aggression is correct, but something to describe it as aggression… Strange.”
“What bullsh*t? Attack is right, but not aggression again?”
“It seems that three or four people from the capital city have escaped so far, but they all say the same thing.”
It’s only natural that he’s talking about something since he ordered the escaped guys to dig up information.
“what?”
“There is only one person who is massacring them near the capital city airport. It’s honestly hard to believe, but what should I do… .”
If it is enough to sweep the capital airport in just a few tens of minutes and arrive here soon, it is a natural proof that you have more than that.
No matter how much those guys were pushed out in the power struggle in downtown Beijing, even if you think roughly, dozens of 5th tier Awakeners were necessary.
That is, assuming that it is a force.
But not hundreds or dozens, but only one?
Soon-won’s expression also became similar to that of a subordinate who was reporting.
It’s not hard to believe, it’s because it was close to bullsh*t that didn’t make any sense in the first place.
Does it make sense to say that they didn’t just bang a baton while they were sleeping, and that they burst into the middle of China without a rumor and wiped out the whole area in an instant?
It was his idea that such a thing was close to what monsters in the special area could do.
‘If it’s me… .’
The growth rate of the grace is different from that of the previously known Awakeners.
The act of hunting the awakened by those who have received grace is basically a high risk high return. Much more than Awoken hunting monsters.
Is that why? As there is a huge risk to survival and growth, it seems that a reasonable reward was given, and if only those with the right level were hunted well, their inaction would improve in an instant.
There was no hierarchy to determine the high and low ranks of the Awoken, but fighting spirit existed in their system as well.
Soon-won, who caught and killed three or four of the 5th rank, is also comparable to the 6th rank Awakener in terms of fighting spirit.
The number decreases as you climb the hierarchy, but it was common sense that a 5th tier Awakener would have to hunt far more than that in order to reach the 6th tier.
A huge reward was given when killing an Awakener rather than catching a monster, and that was the biggest reason why the Graces were able to overwhelm the Awakener in an instant.
It has become stronger so quickly, and if it does not become strong, it will go crazy and self-destruct, so it easily overwhelms the Awoken by default.
‘Perhaps it would be fortunate if I held out for five minutes when I called for a fight head-on.’
I didn’t even have to think about whether I could wipe it out in tens of minutes like an enemy approaching like a chokehold.
If you were in the opposite position, you would rather be killed.
“That means… .”
If the reports of the few horses that ran away near the capital airport and the reports of the subordinate now are true.
‘At least armed enough to occupy a place in the limited express area. Or more.’
There was not enough time to think about it.
He’ll be there in 5-10 minutes now.
“f*ck… .”
The elation that had risen so much cooled down. Even so, it was spinning around in place like a dog in need.
In common sense, the central area at the time the report was already heard. No, I should have rushed to the limited express area. Because the enemy’s weight class itself belonged there.
However, the desire to become stronger, and the greed to get out of the outskirts and head to the center and the limited express like a nobleman were still the same. So I’m just stomping my feet.
“Hey, gather them all together! Go out of the area and meet him!”
It was a decision he made after much thought.
As soon as I heard the news that was conveyed to me anyway, the other party seemed to be heading here sweeping away everything in sight.
There were hundreds of subordinates in the northeastern part of the outskirts under Sunwon.
It was said that if you count the residents who were interested and flocked to it, you would have to deal with more than 500 Blessed Ones.
It was the judgment that even though I would be annihilated due to my lack of skills, I could get rid of my body.
‘If I can kill it, I’ll kill it myself based on the situation.
It was an option that could be called a gamble, but it didn’t seem too bad considering the tremendous power that could be gained by killing him.
After a while, due to Sun Yuan’s order and rumors quickly spreading around the outskirts, hundreds of people moved out of downtown Beijing.
The place they were heading to was the 16-lane ring road that was the gateway to downtown Beijing in the past.
The only enemy was trying to enter by walking to the center of the road as if asking to see him.
* * *
“That’s downtown Beijing.”
This was my second visit, but it felt different.
It had turned into a gloomy neighborhood with tall buildings naturally blocking sunlight.
“It’s unnecessarily clear.”
At the top of my view looking at the far horizon, there was a clear sky and sun.
For most ordinary citizens, the era is no different from the end of the century when they have to protect their lives every moment.
However, with the fall of modern civilization and the factory shutdown as part of it, the dazzling clear sky was directing the opposite atmosphere.
There were not a few ordinary people who thought so.
Those who say that Gates, Awakeners, and disasters are God’s punishments, angered by human reckless development and environmental destruction.
Looking at the clear sky, I thought I could understand why they said that.
Because if you were ignorant, everything in front of you would become everything in the world.
Unfortunately, however, even if humans make a hundred days of chaos, there is no significant impact on the earth or environment.
Being sick and dying was a human being who couldn’t adapt to change, and that’s why he was afraid.
“And the Tuner is a piece of sh*t.”
I don’t even think he made the world this way with a special cause or his own beliefs.
“Because you’re an idiot enough to create a world where humans kill each other by creating people like that just on a whim.”
A wide road that had been quiet for a while. I was caught by the feeling of the numerous figures approaching.
Variants that seem to be well over a hundred. They were probably the ones who came after hearing the news.
They had intentionally kept some variants alive by wiping out the inhabited areas near the airport.
To give you time to deliberately prepare. To give the mutants in the city time to unite.
It was a smaller number than expected.
For whatever reason, those in the immediate vicinity didn’t react, and it meant that only guards and clumsy things came rushing in.
It wasn’t bad though.
The turmoil here will unite them again, and those strong will be colonized one after another.
“Is it really one?”
“But isn’t he a mutant?”
“It doesn’t smell, it smells.”
The mutants, who approached me like a barn without military discipline or anything, stopped at a certain distance. I went to search for Ha Yeon-woo.
jerk- jerk-
A battle of hundreds to one. However, only Ha Yeon-woo, who looked like David on the outside, was the only one among them who continued to walk aimlessly.
“Wake. He’s the bastard who came after the Seo Woo-Doo bastards by himself.”
Words that came distinctly from the back of the crowd.
Although he was in the rear, the son-in-law became quiet for a moment, as if he were the leader of them.
‘You idiot.’
Fighting in front of a strong guy is not that common.
Because reality is different from cartoons and movies where heroes appear.
Excluding the very few Awoken who were revered for their heroic appearance even here on Earth, most of them did just that because they had to cut themselves with a sword to gain a lot of fighting power, and they had the confidence to fight and win.
Even more so, it was natural that the guys who made a fight that could be called a war on the Pan continent not appear on the battlefield.
Nobles give orders to knights, and knights lead troops to strike. That was common sense.
So, in the case of shamans, even if their title was relatively low, they were treated with dignity.
At least each member was strong, and they went out and slaughtered the enemy together with their subordinates.
“You bastard, have you received grace?”
jerk- jerk-
Ignoring someone shouting, I continued walking.
Variants that slowly draw out their strength, perhaps under pressure.
As soon as Ha Yeon-woo entered the range, each of them showed off their chess immediately.
“Kill!”
Shiiik-!
Whoop!
Tentacles in the shape of monsters flying ignorantly.
It seemed that they were being swayed recklessly with the momentum to attack each other, but nonetheless, they did not harm each other and continued to aim only for Ha Yeon-woo, occupying all directions.
Chejak-
Among the tentacles of those guys, the placenta that I tried to touch first was spewing black bodily fluids without a sound and shattered.
“Keugh… .”
“Ah!”
Because it was a small space, only a few dozen people were hit.
However, when they were slaughtered without knowing what they had suffered, they could not help but be very embarrassed.
“What the hell… .”
“Spread first!”
Someone’s words settled the situation, and hundreds of variants surrounded Ha Yeon-woo in three or four layers.
Right after that, Ha Yeon-woo’s arm went up lightly.
ugh-
“Not behind me. It will be difficult to run away that way.”
The mana gathered in his hand soared into the sky.
“Uh… .”
“what… That… .”
Soon, the pale blue light that embroidered the sky nearby began to fall indiscriminately on the hundreds of figures surrounding him.
“No, stop it!”
“Run away!”
block or run away. Both options burst out among the variants.
at the same time.
Kwagwagwang-!
Kwaaang!
The asphalt road collapsed like a sandcastle collapsing, creating a roar.
The placenta tried to get out somehow by playing with their feet, some tried to block it by raising their strength, and some started to explode without doing anything at all.
Kwaaang-
Kwazijik-
In the back of Ha Yeon-woo, where the rain of pouring mana was mainly concentrated, all 16 lane roads were cut off.
No trace of the variants could be found anywhere on the asphalt that was sizzling with the scorching energy.
“Everything is good, but it’s hard to measure strength this way.”
Those in Shenyang and Seoul. And it was difficult to easily grasp the difference in power between those who seemed to be the most distant in downtown Beijing. till now.
Ha Yeon-woo realized the extreme meaning of mana, emptied everything, and at the same time accomplished inaction enough to contemplate nature and other people’s things that were not mine.
But is it limited to mana? It was difficult to comprehend the power they possessed just by looking at them.
Just like normal warriors, you can tell by looking at it with your own eyes and dividing the numbers.
‘Can I contain the power they use in my body?’
To put another power into an empty body. It was a random thought.
In the meantime, the guy who appears to be the boss who gave the first order appeared in the midst of the mayhem.
Also the back view.
Immediately someone died or ran away and picked up the sword thrown on the floor.
“Come to think of it, it’s been a while since I’ve held a weapon.”
