Chapter 77

Episode 77 [ Mine (3) ]

Gorilla’s Mana Stone was not difficult to find. There was a fairly large mana stone located above the heart.

-Even if you make taxidermy or skin it, there will be a lot of people who want it.

As Kyung-hoon took the mana stone, Eve asked in a puzzled voice.

“It’s not like it has a separate effect or is helpful when making something, right?”

-There was no such information in the encyclopedia.

“Then that’s enough. “I don’t have time and I don’t want to do that.”

-It’s a different reaction than when it was gold bars. Well, maybe this is human emotion.

I really didn’t have time, and it reminded me of a gorilla hunt I saw on the Internet, so I just decided to go.

Kyung-hoon burst into laughter at Eve’s grandiose explanation.

Kyung-hoon immediately ran to where the group was.

I listened with earphones, but fortunately there were no deaths.

Thanks to Eve’s advance notice, he was able to block it with his shield in time.

However, all attacks could not be prevented. I saw soldiers wearing bandages.

Surprisingly, the group’s expressions were bright.

“It’s okay! “We got it!”

“The ones caught were the awakened people who came to the rescue.”

“No, we fought together, so what are you talking about?”

“Lieutenant Louis also played a part, so it doesn’t matter!”

The uninjured soldiers were giving high fives as they looked at the fallen gorilla.

This was their first time winning against such monsters. Moreover, it felt like all the sadness that had been waiting for death while hiding in the cave had been washed away.

Moreover, the expressions of Lieutenant Louis as well as Jinhyeok and Marcelo were reminiscent.

Lieutenant Louis was surprised by the bullet that pierced the shield, and Jinhyeok and Marcelo were surprised by the stray bullet that hit the monster.

Kyung-hoon had Jin-hyuk and Marcelo collect the gorilla’s mana stone.

People watched in amazement as they took the mana stone out of the monster’s corpse.

“Is that something that might be the next generation energy source?”

Lieutenant Louis looked at the mana stone with a curious expression. It was his first time seeing the real thing.

Thanks to Dr. Hyerin’s announcement of the research results, governments and companies from around the world have been collecting Mana Stones for research purposes, but a proper market price has not yet been established.

During this operation, dead monster bodies were transported, but none of the soldiers here saw the mana stone in person.

Gyeonghoon handed a mana stone to Lieutenant Louis.

“It’s a memorial because we fought together.”

Lieutenant Louis happily took the mana stone after hearing the word commemorative.

Fortunately, none of the injured had difficulty moving.

After that, there were no major difficulties until returning.

A few times, Marcelo stopped the group and Kyung-hoon went on a reconnaissance trip. There was a smell of blood coming from Kyung-Hoon’s body, but only those who were awakened could tell.

The group was able to return to the village three days after leaving the cave.

Whick! Whick!

Wow!

Clap clap clap clap!

bravo! bravo!

“You guys are so lucky. “I’ve lived well!”

“I lost the plague bet, but I feel great!”

As they came out of the jungle, the village erupted in cheers,

thanks to the fact that they had kept in touch by satellite phone during their return. The soldiers in the village were truly happy to see their comrade alive. The wounded were led to the

infirmary by a medic, and another soldier led them to the infirmary. Deul and his party headed to the operation headquarters in the center of the village.

Laba also followed the party. The natives glared at Laba between the houses, but they could not get close to where the party was.

“I am reporting the return of Lieutenant Samuel and 10 others.”

Lieutenant Samuel, the most senior among the combat soldiers, reported to Lieutenant Colonel Charles as a representative,

“You’re welcome. Thank you for your hard work.”

The lieutenant colonel, whose face looked better than before, embraced each soldier.

Finally, he patted Lieutenant Louis on the shoulder and looked at Marcelo.

“That’s amazing. I didn’t think it would be easy...”

The lieutenant colonel honestly thought he would fail. I was thinking,

“Haha, I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but after the rescue team fought those gorilla monsters, attacks on the village stopped. It might be a funny idea, but the gorillas you said you were dealing with may have been leading the monsters.”

The lieutenant colonel shook his head, as if it was absurd to even think about it.

“Anyway, the anti-aircraft attack disappeared, so I was relieved.”

It was absurd, but it was true that the gorilla monsters shot down the planes with rocks.

The isolation of the village was now over. There would be no problem with supply from now on.

“Ah, you grabbed the tired people and told them a story. Rest first. But I don’t see a single person.” “But...”

-A person who awakens with sanity after eating four mana stones. This refers to a very small number of people who cannot use characteristics but can handle mana.

Kyunghoon sighed.

“Why do suitable people come out here?”

-You seem to be a very lucky person. As of now, there is no way to identify suitable people, so most people will have no choice but to go

crazy... Zainab’s eyes turned red.

“How did know? who are you “Why are you trying to disrupt tomorrow?”

Eve opened her mouth in a voice of regret at Zainab’s words.

-Unfortunately, I don’t think I’m a perfect fit.

“It’s a shame, but what’s the regret? “It’s not like I’m going to save him anyway.”

Kyung-hoon took out a pistol with a silencer from his backpack.

Zainab’s expression changed when she saw the pistol.

***

After a while, Kyung-hoon and Lava’s family came up to the first floor.

Zainab and the henchman who followed her had disappeared from the basement.

After picking up his now heavier backpack, Kyung-hoon looked at Lava’s father.

He faced Kyung-hoon with a pale face.

“I was rather lucky. Laba’s father was the former chief of the village. “It will make things easier.”

Zainab’s men in the house stood side by side with frightened expressions on their faces.

Everyone had received proper training from Kyung-hoon.

Lava’s father, Joseph Toda, clenched his trembling fists.

He saw how Zainab and his henchmen died and disappeared in the basement.

It was magical and terrifying. Unlike Zainab, there was someone who truly used the power of a god.

“I asked this below, but is it okay to keep them alive? I am someone who wants to do business with this town in the future. “We need to be precise about our transaction lines.”

At Kyung-hoon’s words, the faces of the men standing on the wall turned pale.

Their faces had already been messed up by Kyung-hoon, but now even the blood had disappeared and it felt like I was looking at a wax doll rather than a black person.

Joseph nodded eagerly as he looked like he was going to kill everyone depending on the answer.

“Most of them are village youth. Moreover, there will be no accidents because there are soldiers.”

Although they were grateful people for saving their lives, they could no longer allow outsiders to kill the villagers.

Of course, there were those who had been tyrannical under Zainab, but as long as Zainab and his henchmen were dead, they could be dealt with within the village.

“I will tell you about the soldiers. First, let’s organize the village. “I will also bring Larva.”

Joseph nodded with a firm expression at Kyung-hoon’s words.

All the guns belonging to Zainab’s men had been recovered by Joseph and Rava’s brothers.

Laba’s older brothers were already moving around the village and building up their influence.

After a while, Kyung-hoon headed to headquarters.

-He really looked like a villain. Did you plan on killing them all?

On the way back, Eve asked Kyung-hoon,

“Well?”

Kyung-hoon did not answer her question.

Kyung-hoon entered the headquarters and ruffled Lava’s hair as he stood there, biting his lip.

“Like you said, it was in the basement. “Everything is resolved, so go.”

It was Kyung-hoon who saved Lava’s family with just a satellite photo and Lava’s explanation.

“Thank you. “I will definitely repay you for saving my family.”

After expressing his gratitude, Lava ran out of the building.

The whole group seemed to be resting in the guest room.

Instead of going to where the group was, Kyung-hoon headed to the room where the lieutenant colonel was staying.

“welcome. “I was worried because I couldn’t see it.”

As he entered the room, the lieutenant colonel welcomed Gyeonghoon.

After sitting down and saying hello for a moment, the lieutenant colonel opened his mouth.

“So, what brought you here?”

“Colonel, will you continue to be in charge of this village?”

The lieutenant colonel smiled awkwardly at Kyung-hoon’s words.

“I think that will be the case for a while. We can’t give up on this treasure trove of resources, even if we’re pushed out. Moreover, since there is a shortage of manpower, it would be easy to increase the number of employees, but it would not be easy to be transferred.”

At the words of the lieutenant colonel, Gyeonghoon opened the backpack he had placed next to him.

“Then how about you stay here?”

The lieutenant colonel frowned.

“Are you speaking evil?”

Kyunghoon shook his head. He took out gold bars from his backpack and laid them out on the table.

10kg of gold bars. It was one-tenth of the gold bars in my backpack.

“No, we will continue to do business in the future.”
