Chapter 36

Episode 36 [Revelation]

Hundreds of thousands of bat monsters were gathering against the backdrop of the rising sun.

Quaguaguagua.

They were monsters several times larger than existing bats. The sky was filled with bat monsters.

The bats that had left for the city overnight to look for food all returned to their home, Gwangnaru subway station, in the morning.

Bats also passed over the high-rise apartments nearby. After the bats passed by for a while, a bat monster flew into the window of an apartment.

This was because an unusual sound came from inside the apartment.

Hwiik.

The bat monster landed in the living room through the broken window.

In the empty living room, where only the furniture remained, the bat monster listened.

I didn’t feel any special sound. The bat monster regained its appetite and spread its wings again. The sun was rising. There was no time.

The bat monster flapped its wings and flew out the window.

puck!

But the place where the bat monster threw itself was the living room wall.

The bat monster pinned against the wall screamed.

Beep!

The bat monster tried to get up again, but couldn’t control itself properly. The monster looked like a drunkard.

The monster couldn’t come to its senses. Everything seemed like a wall, and everything seemed empty. I couldn’t confirm the surrounding space through the sounds I heard.

The bat monster forced mana into its eyes. It was almost impossible to see in such a bright place, but I couldn’t help it.

The front seemed blurry. I felt like I knew where the walls and windows were.

And then, I saw a long pillar standing in front of me. A thin awl protruded from the pillar.

Sigh!

The bat monster became blind again.

Kyung-hoon took the sword out of the monster’s head.

-Jamming was successful. You can also use it as a cell phone speaker. It was not significantly different from the ultrasound band indicated in the data.

“Didn’t it seem like you were trying to see it with your own eyes at the end?”

-Your vision has not completely disappeared. Ultrasound has better performance, so I just don’t use my eyes.

“Then, just one ultrasonic disturbance won’t be enough.”

-It would be quite effective in a small space.

Kyung-hoon nodded at Eve’s words. He left the dead bat monster there and went out to the open veranda.

The flock of bats that had filled the sky were no longer visible. Everyone was on the road. He entered the subway entrance.

Kyung-hoon crossed his arms and looked at the empty road and the lone subway entrance.

The morning sunlight began to shine on the ruined city, and other monsters began to appear one by one on the empty road.

While Kyung-hoon was in another world, Korea was in an uproar over the gunfight that took place in Yanggu.

Testimonies of hearing gunshots and seeing soldiers moving poured out on the Internet, and even rumors of seeing mutant monsters appeared. It was a

sensitive case . The military also responded quickly.

[Mutant human rioting and escape occurred in Yanggu, Gangwon-do around 20:15 yesterday. Five mutant humans with brain abnormalities escaped from the shelter and crossed the northern demarcation line into North Korea. Dozens of soldiers were injured, and several were seriously injured and were taken to nearby hospitals for treatment...]

Following the military’s announcement, broadcasts and newspapers poured out articles:

[It is said that all of the imprisoned mutant humans were mentally unstable. It is said that they were imprisoned in military bases for injuring or killing people.] [

According to sources, the North Korean military helped them escape.]

[Opposition parties and civic groups condemned the acceptance of mutant humans in military bases without the public’s knowledge. ]

[As for the issue of human rights oppression, the government announced that it will punish those responsible and take corrective measures as soon as the exact details are confirmed.] Perhaps because

North Korea was involved, public opinion, which had been unilaterally criticizing the government, has now split into two.

┗ Mutant Humans They all have to be killed. There’s no use in keeping them alive if they kill people and run to the North?

┗What does that mean? Moreover, it’s just the government’s word. How can you trust what the government says?

┗This time, a video of the battle was also uploaded. There is evidence. It’s a lie.

┗You mean a video with only gunshots, smoke, and flashes? How do I know that it was a gun accident?

┗No, but it’s North Korea. Not this.

The group was surprised that they had pretended to go to North Korea, but quickly became worried about what would happen next.

“Then what should we do?”

“Would it be okay with my family if I told them I went to the North?”

“Can’t you even contact your family?”

People poured out questions with dark expressions.

Kyunghoon raised his hand instead of answering. Everyone stopped talking.

He spread out two fingers.

“There are two ways. One is to hide the mutant humans until they are recognized. It means going abroad, staying abroad, and then coming back. “I could probably use some help with this.”

Everyone had dark expressions. The words were good, but he ended up becoming a fugitive.

“What is the other way?”

The middle-aged man asked Kyung-hoon with a serious expression.

Kyung-hoon answered with a slightly worried expression.

“This is a pretty difficult path, but...”

Kyung-hoon explained the second method in detail. While he was explaining, people’s expressions kept changing.

After a while, all explanations were completed.

The group worried, discussed, and conflicted.

And I made a decision.

next day. The Ministry of Defense briefing room at the Seoul Government Complex was crowded with reporters.

This was because there was a briefing about the mutant human escape incident that occurred a few days ago.

The reporters each took out their notebooks and laptops and waited for the announcement.

A short while later, a Ministry of Defense spokesperson and officials appeared in front of the briefing room.

A spokesperson for the Ministry of National Defense took the podium and began the briefing.

The live broadcast camera rolled, and reporters began tapping their keyboards.

“We will begin the briefing on the mutant escapee incident. The unfortunate incident that occurred four days ago was an escape incident led by North Korea...” The

spokesperson said this incident was caused by North Korea’s actions by a group of vicious mutant criminals. It was concluded that it was a case of escape.

“Because of this incident, I would like to ask the National Assembly to consider once again the legislation on mutant humans that has been prepared so far. We, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Korea, are doing our best to protect our citizens from mutant humans...” the spokesperson concluded

. It was the moment when I was about to build it.

Woodangtang!

“Stop it!”

“Ouch!”

A loud sound was heard from outside the briefing room. The reporters all turned around at the sudden sound, and the spokesperson who was presenting also looked at the briefing room door.

Boom!

At that moment, the closed briefing room door burst open.

People He screamed in surprise, and

people walked in through the broken door.

Three men, a young woman, and a young girl.

A middle-aged man stepped forward and shouted,

“We are the mutant humans you say escaped to the North.”

He strode forward and grabbed the microphone on the podium.

The spokesperson sat down on the floor in fear, and other mutant humans stood side by side next to the middle-aged man.

“We came here, risking death, to expose the government’s lies. We will reveal all the ugly crimes that have occurred in this place!”

Papapapap!

Flashes went off and reporters took out their cell phones. The

live camera continued to roll and people watching the broadcast stared at the screen with their mouths wide open.

Outside the government building . Kyung-hoon, who was looking at his cell phone, said to Eve,

“You said you would invest the money you have in companies with good prospects, right?”

– Yes, we have now started looking for investments and managing them.

Kyung-hoon smiled while looking at his cell phone.

“I found a good investment .” I think.”
