Episode 161 [Bailey]

What Kyung-hoon and Shane saw after leaving the square were earthworm monsters sauntering towards them.

thud! thud!

Moreover, the earthworm monsters continued to fall from above, crushing the remains and corpses of their compatriots.

The monsters gradually increased.

Shane fired his gun at the monster in front first.

Ta-ta-ta-tang!

Bullets rained down on the earthworm’s body. However, the bullet bounced off the membrane surrounding the earthworm.

Shane looked at Kyunghoon.

“It’s not working?”

Kyung-hoon adjusted his grip on the spear. The old window glowed blue.

He threw the spear with all his might.

Easy profit.

A sound pierces the air and

boom!

The spear exploded into a monster!

Shane asked as he saw the monster exploding into pieces.

“What are you checking?”

-Haa...

Kyunghoon ran forward while hearing Shane’s question and Eve’s sigh.

Thanks to the illusion, my power control failed.

He hid his embarrassment with a stern face and pulled out the spear stuck on the floor.

The monster that was following me was right in front of me.

The earthworm’s mouth opened. Hundreds of fangs were crammed into the large circular hole.

Kyung-hoon pushed the spear into his head.

The spear, filled with a dim light that seemed almost invisible, pierced through the upper part of the monster’s mouth.

Pop!

The shield broke through and the spear penetrated more than a span of the monster’s palate.

Gyeong-hoon stepped under the monster’s open mouth and raised his spear to prevent it from closing.

The monster struggled, but couldn’t withstand Kyung-hoon’s strength.

Hahahahaha.

The shields began to disappear one by one, starting from the head where the spear was embedded.

From the roof of the mouth to deep inside the mouth. From head to tail.

All of the translucent film flowing over the monster’s body disappeared.

Kyung-hoon shouted.

“Shoot again!”

Shane pulled the trigger at Kyung-hoon’s words.

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

The bullet passed by Kyung-hoon and pierced the monster’s body.

Puff puff!

Blood splattered and flesh exploded.

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!

Shane fired until the magazine was empty.

The fluttering earthworm monster fell limp when the gunfire stopped.

Life has been cut off.

Gyeonghoon pulled out his spear.

dump.

The dead monster rolled on the floor.

“There’s no way that spear is a shield...”

Hearing Shane say that, Kyung-hoon adjusted the spear.

“Let’s check further.”

Shane replied,

“Throw as many clips as you can. I’ll give you as many shots as you want.”

After that, the sound of regular rifles continued inside the silo.

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!

From the bottom floor to the floor where the warehouse door was broken.

Shane looked at the red-hot muzzle and said,

“It’s not the bullets that are the problem, the gun can’t hold up. Already. “This is my second tablet. Do I need to check more?”

“No. This is enough.”

There were no more monsters left in the silo. Most of the monsters had been killed by regular bullets.

They were all monsters that Kyung-hoon stabbed with a spear and Shane finished off with a gun.

[I need to test it further, but it definitely neutralized the monster’s shield. [It is an item that does this. Seeing that there is nothing special about it, it seems to be because of the differently colored mana stones.]

Green light continued to flow from the mana stones embedded at the end of the spear.

“Eve, is this your first weapon to see?”

[Yes, it is not in my database.]

Puaaaaaa.

The dust split in half, and hundreds of mana blades flew towards the earthworm monster.

Quaaaang!

The blades cut into the earthworm monster’s body. It was destroyed. The mana storm completely pulverized the earthworm monster’s entire body, starting from its tail to its torso. It was an earthworm that could move even if half of its body was cut off, but it seemed like this was the first time it had experienced such a shock. The earthworm monster could no longer move

. I couldn’t help it, I just trembled.

But the trembling didn’t last long.

Bang!

As soon as the mana stone was pulled out of Shane’s hand, the monster stopped moving. It stopped breathing.

Crumbling. Crumbling.

I put my hand back. Shane pulled his arm out of the monster’s body.

In his hand, he was holding a large mana stone.

He jumped out of the monster’s body and Kyung-hoon approached him with a tired expression.

[Thank you everyone for your hard work.]

Eve said to the two people. .

“No, I started it to get over it, but how long has it been since then?”

[It’s been 15 hours since we left the silo.]

Kyung-hoon sighed.

The cave exploration that started to check the cave where the earthworms came in turned into a war against the swarm of earthworms that had taken over the entire underground area.

The cave was a home for the earthworm monsters. It was connected to the nest.

Thanks to this, Kyung-hoon and Shane continued to fight against the group of earthworms for 15 hours, and eventually ended the fight by killing the boss of the group. “If it weren’t

underground, it would have ended quickly...”

Due to the mana storm If they had blown it up, they could have finished it quickly, but if they did that, they had no choice but to be buried in the dirt.

With the power of the Samjeonggeom sealed, it became a really boring fight.

“Moreover, the captain-level monster ran away...”

If they made a mistake, the nest would be destroyed. I almost lost sight of the owner.

If I did, there was no telling when the silo would be attacked.

“But where is this place?”

Shane asked, throwing a mana stone to Kyunghoon. Kyunghoon also looked around and tilted his head. It

was a strange ruin.

[According to GPS, it is Altadena Village, in the northern section of LA. It is a residential area famous for Christmas decorations.]

Kyunghoon and Shane looked around.

There was no house to decorate for Christmas anywhere.

“This is Los Angeles? How far have we moved?”

The robot tilted its head at Kyung-hoon’s words.

“There’s nothing left here...”

LA CITY was clearly written on the window.

“Wasn’t there still Los Angeles left?”

Eve answered Kyung-hoon’s question.

[Perhaps the city is visible far to the south.]

Several towering buildings can be seen in the distance.

Kyung-hoon narrowed his eyes.

“That? They are definitely not ordinary buildings.”

The buildings rising from the ruins like castles were connected from the waist down.

The buildings were made of various materials attached to each other, making it look like a castle wall.

[Would you like to go?]

Kyung-hoon shook his head at Eve’s words.

“Seoul’s base .” “Let’s go back. We’ve been there too long. The cave has collapsed anyway, the silo is safe, and we have the spatial coordinates. Let’s take a break and then come back.”

Kyung-hoon patted his backpack.

“First, we need to analyze this window as well. Shane also needs to be repaired.”

It was Shane who had been running for a while clinging to the earthworm monster. His body was full of wounds.

[....Anyway, neither of you really take care of yourself.]

Shane and Kyunghoon looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.

With those words, the three disappeared into the hole.

*

An incident that occurred in the ruins of a city that had been quiet for a long time caused the monsters that had stayed in the ruins to arise.

In the river, in the port, inside a high-rise building.

A living room in a high-rise building full of dust.

The animal curled up under the chair also raised its head.

The beast, its golden fur shaking, walked towards the window.

A lot of unkempt fur covered its eyes, but the animal shook its head to clear the fur that was covering its eyes.

The beast stood in front of the living room window and looked at the land to the north in the distance.

Unfortunately, nothing was visible.

bruise.

A baby golden retriever sat down on the floor with a sullen face.

It seemed that the owner had not arrived yet.
