Episode 90. [Knights in Armor (1)]
The first thing Michael heard when he woke up from fainting was Katerina’s voice.
“...Hehe... Hehehe, my mission was to find out the location of the EV headquarters and the list of awakened people who make potions and weapons.”
Her voice was not its original quiet, clear voice.
A deep male voice was heard behind her voice.
“What happens if I fail?”
“..I don’t know that...”
“Then tell me what you know about the Russian Awakened organization.”
“Heh... I don’t know everything, but first of all, the one who is awakened to battle...”
Katerina continued to tell secrets. Even secrets that should never be told.
Michael almost came to his senses.
“Ugh!”
As soon as I came to, the pain hit me. Memories returned along with the pain.
lost the fight A colleague dies and Katerina screams.
“Ugh!”
Holding back the pain, he forced his eyes open.

“Have you come to your senses?”
Kyung-hoon stopped the interrogation at Michael’s moans. Anyway, I heard almost everything I was going to hear. Katerina was sitting in front of him.
Her appearance was different from before. She was laughing heartily, drool dripping from the corners of her mouth.
“I woke up just in time. “If he didn’t wake up, I would have to force him to wake up.”
Kyung-hoon spoke in a calm voice to Michael, who opened his eyes.
“What happened?”
Michael’s eyes were on Katerina. He endured the pain and asked Kyung-Hoon.
He couldn’t even imagine Katerina looking like that.
“Should I say that I was the victim of my own attack?”
-It’s a mental attack without even putting up a defensive wall, so it looks like they didn’t even think about backflow. Once something is damaged to this degree, it is impossible to return to normal. The opponent was too bad.
Those she had dealt with so far were those who could not manipulate mana. Even if the mental attack failed, the mana that was sent to the opponent’s body was only scattered into the air.
But this time, her attack was blocked by Kyung-hoon’s mana and returned.
She was consumed by her own characteristics.
Michael was dumbfounded.
It was an operation to steal information from EV. But you end up giving information to the other person.
But looking back on what had happened so far, I didn’t know that it had to end up like this.
EV knew in advance that it was a trap. That’s probably why they sent such a monster. In the end, Russia lost the information battle.
“Are you saying it wasn’t only strong on the Internet?”
“Hmm, is that how the story goes?”
Kyung-hoon, remembering the chairman’s help, could only nod.
“Kill it quickly. “I don’t think there will be any intention to save him anyway.”
All of my fellow guards were dead. All the weapons they were holding were gone, but he didn’t want to worry about that.
Kyunghoon agreed with what he said. I had no intention of letting either of them live. That’s why they didn’t treat it with a potion.
“Don’t you have any desire to live?”
Kyung-hoon asked just in case, but it was no use.
“Do you think I can survive if you save me? There is no way Your Excellency would let EV find out about this.”
The higher-ups did not tell him what would happen if he failed. But there was no way I didn’t know.
When Kyung-hoon seemed to still be worried, he continued.
“Torting me wouldn’t mean much. Katerina knows much more anyway. “Because the information she found out by shaking her mind wasn’t the only information about the Awakened.”
The Russian president was using Katerina to maintain power. If it weren’t for the number of EVs, there was no way she would have come out like this.
“I knew that.”
More time had passed than Michael thought. Kyung-hoon was able to extract enough useless information.
The reason Kyung-hoon kept him alive was for another reason.
He carried the unconscious Katerina and the injured Michael on both shoulders.
“Hehe”
“Ugh.”
Katerina was happy without knowing why, and Michael fainted again from the pain.
“We should do everything we can before resorting to the last resort.”
He defeated the monster at best, but was unable to destroy the gas pipe.
Gyeong-hoon left the underground plaza.
*
“If I’m not chosen by God... what happens when I die? ”
He looked at the shell and wondered,
“Hehe! It’s a shell. Long live Russia!”
Katerina raised both hands and smiled brightly.
Flash!
Quagwagwagwag!
The bomb blew up the entire area. The hole collapsed and the road exploded.
The bomb didn’t just fall near the hole.
Quagwang! Boom! Boom!
The surrounding forest. It fell as if it would destroy the entire area, even on a road far away in Edo.
The artillery bombardment continued. The artillery unit looked like it would overwhelm a radius of several kilometers.
Then, a bomber circling in the sky passed over the sky where the artillery fire was falling.
Thump, thump. . Boom.
The bunker busters were dropped, and then a huge bomb was dropped.
Boom. Boom. Boom.
The bunker buster penetrated deep into the ground and turned the basement upside down.
Kuaaaaaa!
The thermal pressure bomb (FOAB) that fell next blew up the entire area. Around the road. This was devastated.
A mushroom cloud rose.
After the clouds dispersed, the holes were no longer visible. The road was crushed and the trees were shattered.
It seemed like there was no living thing around the hole, as well as the road and the nearby forest.
The generals in Moscow, who were watching the scene with a reconnaissance satellite, also shook their heads in disappointment. It
was an operation that had a very high probability of success.
It seemed like they had underestimated EV’s capabilities.
The commander sighed and received a phone call. .
It was a call from the Kremlin.
The commander answered the phone.
“Yes, yes. I understand.”
The commander who answered the phone handed the phone to the Chief of Staff with a dark face.
When the Chief of Staff answered the phone, the President’s instructions came out of the receiver.
-This time, EV took a hit. The Guard and KGB take responsibility and take care of the matter. Now that things have come to this, let’s express our regrets to EV and proceed with negotiations.
“I understand.”
Now that I had seen the power of EV, which was unexpectedly strong, I had to rebuild the relationship.
Not as an opponent that could be killed with the click of a finger, but as an equal. As an
enemy or as an ally.
The phone was hung up, and the chief of staff stood in front of the commander.
The commander took off his hat.
“I have to take responsibility.”
From the moment he called the chief of staff, his dismissal was decided.
He didn’t know whether it would end in dismissal, but he had to leave now.
The commander was arrested by the military police as he was leaving the building, and the KGB was also in an uproar.
In the past, this was the case . Intelligence agencies in each country would have been busy due to the large-scale bombardment, but no government cared at the moment.
Because it happened occasionally.
The world was now at war with mutant monsters.

The sun began to shine through the trees.
Plate metal The knight wrapped in armor got up.
It was morning. It was time to sleep, but now he had to move.
Another light appeared on the other side of where the sun rises.
It was a signal from the clan.
The one who had been waiting had arrived.
The last sign. Several days had already passed since they missed and waited.
But they did not look for new traces.
It was because they had missed something like that more than once.
And thanks to that, they were able to find the human. It was time to carry out the master’s orders. The Crocodile Knight held up a huge sword and advanced towards the light fired by the clan.
Boom
! Boom!
The explosion of battle could be heard from afar.
