Chapter 408

–

“When the hell is this rain going to stop?”

A research complex attached to a commercial city.

The security team members responsible for the security there were looking out the window from inside the high guard tower.

“These T&Fucks, they have so much credit, they don’t even fix the terraforming machine.”

“Noisy. “You bastard.”

“No, isn’t it? It’s already been 4 years since I’ve been here, and there’s not a fucking day when it doesn’t rain. Fucking T&C bastards.”

“Is this guy drunk? “Drink in moderation.”

The teammate who was swearing took off the hip flask from his waist and put it in his mouth. Every time his neck moved, the strong smell of alcohol wafted through the air.

“Ugh, I like it when drug addicts take advantage of it.”

“why? “Will you give it to me too?”

“go away. “You weakling.”

The security team member looked at his colleague with a pitiful expression as he drank cheap synthetic alcohol mixed with drugs. He clicked his tongue and took out a metal bar from his pocket.

“You crazy guy, you don’t even need guidance or medicine.”

“hey. What you’re drinking is a drug that makes even your mom sell it, but it’s cigarettes. Cigarettes that are officially verified and sold.”

“What is verification? “Both drugs are the same.”

Both are soldiers, but one drinks alcohol while on duty, and the other smokes a drug-laced electronic cigarette. It was a common sight seen at the security tower of the research complex.

“You know what? “Those pirates who came in recently brought a lot of Wolff slaves.”

“Wolf? “Fuck, what’s so good about hairy, smelly bitches?”

“hey. “Once you taste those thighs and waist, you can’t forget them?”

“Ugh, just thinking about it makes me sick. Cyborg bitches are better. “They still look like people.”

“Crazy, what good are those smelly oil cans?”

“What does he not know? Separate the top and bottom, front and back....”

The security guard, who was drunk on the drug contained in a cigarette and spouting obscenities, suddenly stopped talking.

“People stop talking. “What happened back and forth?”

“....”

He took the cigarette out of his mouth and walked closer to the window. And I shined a flashlight outside the window.

All that was visible in the space illuminated by white light was rainwater and darkness that spread like a curtain.

“what’s the matter?”

“I think I just saw a big shadow.”

The research complex is surrounded by open fields with no buildings around. If you are on top of the guard tower, you can clearly see with the naked eye who is coming in here.

“There are minefields everywhere. Did you see it wrong?”

“is it?”

The moment he took another cigarette, light flashed outside the window. This was followed by an intense roar.

“uh? “Is it true?”

“huh?”

“Who is there really?”

“what?”

The security guard who was drinking pointed to the window covered in raindrops.

A flash of light flashes again just in time.

The darkness cleared for an instant due to the lightning that struck the field.

It was a brief moment, but the two saw it clearly.

The image of hundreds, if not thousands, of humans standing on a field.

“Holy shit, none of the landmines exploded, right?”

“doesn’t exist.”

The fields surrounding the research complex are littered with mines and combat drones. Inside the complex, anti-ship anti-aircraft guns are placed throughout the complex to prevent enemies from invading through the air. Only the soldiers guarding the research complex know the safe route.

“...is it outside the boundary?”

“Fuck, it’s dark so I can’t see anything.”

Even if I put my face close to the window, it was so dark that I couldn’t see clearly. The two quickly put on the helmets they had taken off.

When the heat-sensing camera attached to the helmet activated, things that had been hidden by rain and shadows began to appear clearly. They were surprised when they checked the field through the camera.

So, it is to his advantage to shake it off and run away now. The pirates will take care of the traces he left behind.

However, if there was one thing that was lacking, it was networking.

“It’s a bit unfortunate that my connection with Daily Mars is fading away.”

He recalled a famous reporter with whom he had a good relationship not long ago. We have been doing business for approximately two years as a customer who mainly purchased data left behind by T&C administrators.

It’s never a bad thing to become friends with reporters wherever you go. This is especially true if you are a reporter sponsored by Prime Capital. Alex knew that too, so he paid quite a bit of attention to his relationship with the other person.

If he leaves here, that good relationship will disappear completely.

“Tsk, I can’t help it.”

There was a lot of investment in the relationship with the reporter, but it would be difficult to maintain it any further than this.

Alex gave up and decided to take care of what needed to be done right away. He activated the communicator and contacted his subordinate on the security team.

“Has Safe Route been updated?”

“The update has already been completed and we are checking it before handing it over to the system management team.”

“So you haven’t sent it to the management team yet? Send it to me before you pass it on. “I have something to review.”

“All right.”

After a while, a file arrived from my subordinate. The security team leader, who confirmed this on the computer, immediately copied the safe route to his personal computer.

“Oh, and just what happened to my security code renewal?”

“It is scheduled to be processed within today.”

“Put it off a little longer.” “After three days.”

“yes? Then, you have to get approval from the management team...”

“Changing the security code too frequently can be a security problem. So I think it would be a good idea to extend the renewal cycle.”

「Uh, well, still....」

“Hey. What if terrorists attack while the security code is being updated? “Are you going to take responsibility?”

“Oh, no! “I will update in 3 days!”

Alex instructed to postpone the security code renewal date and ended the communication.

‘good. Maps and codes have all been processed.’

The management team may find this strange, but don’t worry. They are so corrupt that they bring women to work and have parties. I won’t care at all whether the code changes or not.

All that remains is to send the pirates the safe route map and security code needed to access the complex. Alex manipulated the computer and transferred the file.

Then suddenly the light blinked.

“hmm?”

AG-01 has had bad weather for several years due to a broken terraforming machine. Occasionally, electricity supply becomes unstable due to strong storms.

So I didn’t think it was a big deal, but immediately the light started flashing again. The light, which had been blinking uneasily, soon went out completely. At the same time, the computer that was transferring files also stopped working.

“Uh, wait...holy shit!”

The transmission was cut off at the last minute. Alex, who watched this with his own eyes, hit the desk hard with his fist.

After a while, emergency power came on and the computer turned on again. I tried to transfer the file again, but this time there was a problem. However, the file was not sent because there was a problem with my communication network. I tried to contact my subordinate through a communicator, but it also failed.

‘It’s like this Nimiral terraforming machine!’

I need to send it to the pirates quickly, but the communication status is like this. If he continues to delay sending it, they will find a route other than Alex.

If that happens, the compensation he will receive will also be reduced.

‘...are you going to let something like that happen?’

Alex got up and grabbed his weapon and computer.

If you go to the management team, there will be a way to send the file to the outside world. Wearing a reinforced suit, he left the room.
