Chapter 43
Episode 43 [ I picked it up at the department store 〉
“Come quickly!”
Kyung-hoon also waved at Jin Xia-wei, who was waving as she entered the passenger terminal.
Jin Xia-wei’s appearance was different from before. She was wearing sophisticated makeup and accessories and flashy clothes. It made her look like a young noble lady.
Gyeong-hoon looked at Jin Xiawei’s back and shook his head. I’ve been watching her for the past few days, but I couldn’t figure out what she really looked like. The fake ID and
passport that Eve said would take more than a week took two days. It was completed in no time.
So far, Kyung-hoon was only acting as a bodyguard, as Jin Xia-wei said.
Jin Xia-wei took care of everything, whether it was going around the back streets of Hong Kong to get an ID card or get a passport.
She really knew the back alleys of Hong Kong inside out. It seemed like he knew.
Later, he followed her around with a sense of ease, and today, on the third day, Jin Xiawei boarded a flight to Seoul. As Jin Xiawei disappeared
into the terminal, Kyunghoon wrapped his backpack around him. It was time for him to leave as well.
He took his backpack with him. He put it on and headed to the men’s restroom.
An armed police officer saw Kyung-hoon in the passage, nodded slightly, and passed by. It was the police who had checked him earlier. Perhaps
because the large man had entered the airport carrying a backpack, Kyung-hoon was stopped during the check. It got caught.
Jin Xiawei pretended not to notice with a funny face, and Kyung-hoon had to open the backpack and show him what was inside.
Of course, the backpack contained only ordinary items. Unless you use mana to check, there is no way to know the true appearance of the backpack. There was no.
‘I need to be careful when meeting with awakened people.’
Gyeonghoon made a promise to himself and went into the bathroom.
There were a few people, but luckily there was an empty partition. Kyunghoon went straight into the partition, lowered the toilet lid, and created a portal above it. It was a little unsafe, but there were many portals
. It was better to make it.
Wow.
People looked around at the low sound, and Gyeong-hoon jumped right into the portal. After
returning to the ruined city, the first thing Gyeong-hoon did was take out a shovel from his backpack and run towards Cheonho Station. It
was something he had been thinking about for a few days . It was to collect guano.
But when I arrived in front of it, an unexpected sight unfolded.
The corpses of bat monsters and the corpses of other monsters were strewn across the wide intersection where the entrance to Cheonho Station is located.
The flocks of returning bats were not returning to their nests. After being unable to do so, it seemed like a fight with the monsters of the day broke out.
“Haa…you came too late.”
Unfortunately, all the body parts of the fallen monsters were gone. That was the area where the mana stones were. They all showed
signs of having eaten the corpses. It seemed like another monster had hit the player.
Sighing with regret, Kyung-hoon walked to the subway station entrance.
“Even the waiting room at the top was locked. “I can only scrape off the stairs.”
Kyung-hoon savored the lapping water at the end of the stairs. If only the water hadn’t come in, we could have saved a huge amount…
We dug a hole after hearing Eve ask if there were other subways. But when I think about it again, there was no guarantee that there would be more subways left in good condition, and there was no certainty that bat monsters would live in other subways.
-I think the best way to use an alchemist is to make potions… Even though
Eve secretly advised him, Kyung-hoon started scraping the wall of the stairs with a shovel.
“The potion ingredients are said to be mutant monsters, or by-products of monsters. Plus, you don’t know the exact ingredients.”
-Some of the ingredients for the potion were leaked into the market, but the most important ingredient was the company’s most important trade secret.
“But how do you make the potion?”
-How about bringing various ingredients to the alchemist and researching them? Other companies also created their first potions in this way.
“Where is the time for that? And I’m going to tell you where you got the monster ingredients. Let’s start later when hunting becomes active in our world. “Right now, we’re just making a lot of bombs whose ingredients we already know.”
Since I was only going to use it anyway, there was no need to explain it to anyone else.
It seemed as if a sigh could be heard from Eve’s unresponsive figure. But Kyung-hoon just had fun collecting guano.
In about an hour, Kyung-hoon was able to fill the gunny sack he brought. I had time and strength left, but if I filled up more, it would have been difficult to pass through the dimensional door.
After putting everything into his backpack, Kyung-hoon wiped his body with a wet tissue. He was excited to make a bomb and collected guano, but Kyung-hoon couldn’t possibly like the smell of guano.
Kyung-hoon, who had finally gotten rid of the smell, stretched out loud.
“There’s still a while before we can move, right?”
Only an hour had passed.
Unlike before, Kyung-hoon felt regretful about the remaining time. If the time had been shorter, he would have been able to travel around the world at will using dimensional travel… Even now, if it were on the other side of the world, it would be much faster than an
airplane, but Hong Kong and Given the distance between Seoul, it was bound to be slower than an airplane.
“Should I hunt first and raise my level?…”
The only way to reduce the waiting time was to raise my level.
-But master, the secondary trait hasn’t been released yet? ?
“Secondary trait?”
-Yes, I understand that characteristics are strengthened at certain levels, just like other abilities are strengthened.
“The waiting time gets shorter.”
-In addition to that, I know that abilities derived from level growth appear.
Kyung-hoon scratched his head at Eve’s words. There seemed to be more reasons to go to [Hunter Training Center].
There were so many things I didn’t know about trying to grow on my own. Eve was giving advice, but proper advice about the Awakened was needed.
“The grade also needs to be raised further.”
Kyung-hoon’s eyes lit up as he took out a gun and a sword from his backpack.
Rat monsters were slowly emerging from a half-destroyed 10-story building on the other side of the intersection.
The rat monster I saw when I first came to this world. It was ‘nailet’.
Rat monsters the size of large dogs slowly came out of the building and bared their teeth at Kyung-hoon.
Kyung-hoon’s reaction was different from when he first encountered the rat monsters.
At that time, I thought it was prey and rushed at it right away, but now it was on high alert. It seemed like Kyung-hoon felt stronger.
However, such vigilance did not last long and rat monsters appeared, believing in the power of the group.
Kyung-hoon looked at the teeth of the rat monsters and the dent marks on the fallen corpses.
It was similar.
“You said you like shiny things, so I hope you don’t eat it already…”
-Even monsters know that it is difficult to absorb mana stones right away.
“Then I guess we can hope.”
Kyung-hoon walked towards the rat monsters holding a sword and a gun.
-It is said that two mother rats and a group of children form a nest. Is that okay?
Eve’s words made Kyung-hoon think of the two mother rats he saw as he left the building.
They were monsters that were barely lured out and buried with bombs.
Kyung-hoon’s steps slowed down a little at that moment, but he returned to his original pace.
We ran out of bombs, but instead brought a lot of grenade launchers and grenades. Moreover, he wasn’t the same Kyung-hoon he was back then.
“Mother…. Tu! “It’s worth a try.”
Gyeonghoon spat on the floor and ran toward the remaining building.
On the remaining wall of the 10-story building, the Chinese characters for “department store” were blurred.
The trip to Seoul wasn’t that difficult.
The plane wasn’t delayed and there was no one chasing her. Although there were men who occasionally spied on her, it was common in Hong Kong as well.
After arriving at Incheon Airport, Jin Xiawei was sitting at a cafe in the airport drinking coffee.
Kyung-hoon hasn’t arrived yet.
When she told him to leave first because of work, she asked to go with him, but Kyung-hoon shook his head.
“He’s a man with a lot of secrets. Is he part of an organization called EV? Or is he a freelancer like he said?”
Either way, she wasn’t an ordinary mutant human.
‘Still, I feel like I’ve got a pretty good handle on it…’
The feeling that I had saved her life several times was sending a pretty good signal. It was the first time in a while that I
had left the residence I had been staying in for a long time, but like this. In difficult times, it was much more important to keep a good line.
Moreover, Kyung-hoon was a lifesaver.
For her, who was sure of giving and receiving, the debt of her life was not a small thing. It
seemed like a lot of time had passed. It was getting dark outside, and the lights were on in the cafe. came in.
She looked at the cell phone on the table. It was a cannon phone he had given her. The cell phone was not ringing yet.
As she was looking down at the cell phone,
two voices were heard from behind her at the same time.
“Please wait a lot . Did you? “It’s late.”
Jin Xiawei immediately turned his head. It was Kyung-hoon.
Jin Xiawei looked at Kyung Hoon and frowned.
-You seem a little surprised.
Over the course of a few days, Eve saved all of Jin Xiawei’s habits. As she does not express her emotions well, Eve’s advice was very helpful to Kyung-hoon.
“I thought I found my location with the help of EV. Is there a way to track it separately?”
“It could be a tracking device… It’s a secret.”
Jin Xiawei chuckled at Kyung Hoon’s words.
“Let’s go. “I brought the car.”
At Kyung-hoon’s words, she tilted her head again. It was obviously Kyung-hoon who followed her, but he brought the car…
‘Was there a mistake in the translation?’
I felt like I needed to learn Korean quickly.
Kyunghoon guided her to an ordinary Korean RV parked in the airport parking lot.
It was a car that looked a bit old. Jin Xiawei looked puzzled at the car that looked much further away than the cars she saw in Hong Kong.
-I have no choice but to buy a used car like this so as not to leave it on the computer… I can’t help the owner with a car like this.
Following Jin Xiawei’s expression, Eve’s words also seemed to be filled with emotion.
“There’s nothing you can do. Buying a factory is likely to raise suspicion, but if you buy expensive cars and houses in succession, the source of the money is bound to be questioned. “The place that needs to be set up properly is not Korea, but the place where EVs are active.”
As Kyung-hoon was answering, his mouth twitched.
“No, this is what you said, Eve. What are you talking about after you said it yourself?”
-It would have been possible to buy at least a car that could drive autonomously…
It seemed that Eve needed a car that she could move around on her own.
Jin Xiawei looked at him with strange eyes as he spoke to himself again, and Kyung-hoon drove the car through the parking lot. I got out.
It was a car I hadn’t driven since the military, but I quickly got used to it thanks to driving it a few times in Hong Kong.
News was playing on the radio I had turned on when I came home.
[The new Prime Minister was decided to be the Prime Minister agreed upon by the opposition parties, and this Prime Minister The prime minister was now able to virtually nominate cabinet ministers. As a result, the second half of this administration degenerated into little more than a vegetative government, and the president lost his actual authority.] The aftermath of what Kyung-hoon did was still unfolding
. [
This is the next news. Mutant humans, I’m sorry. The bill for awakened people has passed the National Assembly. Due to this incident, all matters related to wearing electronic anklets, which were a key issue, have been deleted, and only the imposition of sentences based on reporting and non-reporting remains. .]
Fortunately, the aftermath seemed positive.
[This is the last news. The recently created Awakened Association announced that it would hunt mutants. Although it has not yet been approved by the government and police, it is being viewed positively.] But the problem is
that It was going faster than expected.
There was no way those people could have been hunting already. I had to find out what happened.
Kyung-hoon turned off the radio and spoke to Jin Xia-wei.
“First of all, we have secured an officetel.”
It was a room that Kyung-hoon quickly found on the lower floor of his new officetel.
Kyung-hoon continued talking.
“Doing it with a trait doesn’t take that much time… Is there something you want to do?”
At Kyung-hoon’s words, she looked at him with sparkling eyes.
“Well, I don’t know. I was originally working as a bartender, but I don’t know if I can do that here. Do you ever think about owning a bar?”
Kyung-hoon nodded at her words.
“Then, why not try a jewelry bar?”
“Jewelry bar?”
“You run a bar with a jeweler.”
“I know what you mean, but jewelry…”
Kyung-hoon opened the console box between the driver’s seat and the passenger seat.
Hahahahaha.
A bright light emanated from the console box.
Numerous jewels, necklaces and rings were gathered in the console box.
Jin Xiawei’s expression became ecstatic.
“Oh my god….”
These were the jewels I got while stopping by a department store to catch mice.
In addition to the mana stones, the rats’ nest was filled with jewels from the department store.
