Episode 82
Woof woof!
The sound of dogs barking rings in my head.
At the same time, the spirit that had been sinking deep into the bottom quickly rises to the surface.
At that moment, pain struck me and I desperately clenched my teeth and opened my eyes.
Woof woof!
Through the blurry vision, I could see Coco and Volvo barking loudly.
The guys weren’t backing down an inch from Q2 to protect their master.
gun!
I searched the floor urgently.
But the shotgun fell far to the ground, as if it had been knocked out by the impact.
I crawled towards the shotgun, holding onto my right leg, which was not giving up its strength.
Kkakakak!
Q2 swung his arms and yelled at the hounds lurking around, as if they were annoyed.
But the clever hunting dogs easily avoided it and continued to get on the bastard’s nerves.
Thanks to that, I reached the shotgun and held the buttstock in the same position I was lying down.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
He took aim at Q2’s head and unleashed a barrage of loaded slugs.
Kkakakak!
The flying slug hit its target directly, blowing half of its head off.
Bone fragments flew everywhere, and brain matter flowed out in a sticky stream, soaking the floor.
Kkagagagagak-!!
But the bastard resisted fiercely and started running towards me.
The sight was like seeing a monster that had gone beyond the stage of a living creature and was resisting death.
Crunch!
There is no time to even get up.
I shot the gun while lying down.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
With each bullet fired, Q2’s movements slowed noticeably.
But his madness that transcended death and his obsession with humanity continued to drive him.
Click!
In the end, this side ran out of bullets first.
I threw the gun aside and quickly pulled out the jungle knife that was tucked into my waistband.
“Fuck! Get out of here, you freaking monster!”
But at that moment, Kim Jin-kyung appeared from the side of the truck with one side of her face covered in blood.
She aimed for Q2’s right hip as he was running towards her at incredible speed and fired indiscriminately.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
The steel sparks bursting out of the gun barrel and Kim Jin-kyung’s desperate scream.
A volley of bullets with overwhelming physical force tore off the bastard’s right hip.
Crap!
Then, the Q2, which seemed as if it would never stop, tilted and fell over.
It’s an opportunity.
Now, if we just pour bullets into that dangling head, there’s nothing he can do.
Kim Jin-kyung must have thought the same thing as well, as she tried to get as close as possible to Q2 and pull the trigger.
Click!
“What the hell!”
But at the most crucial time, the gun malfunctioned and the bullets got stuck.
Kim Jin-kyung, who was not familiar with firearms, was at a loss and tried to pull the bolt.
Phew!
Of course, Q2 did not miss that moment and swung his long arm and hit Kim Jin-kyung.
Kwajik!
She reflexively raised the shotgun, but it lost its power and flew away into the distance.
Q2 slammed down the shotgun that had been hurting him, breaking it, and soon roared like an animal.
Kkakakakak-!!
Then, his red-tinted eyes widened and he turned his body towards me.
In those spinning red eyes, the only thing left was the instinct to kill me.
Phew!
The jungle map was captured in reverse.
He lowered his posture and stretched out one arm.
Already covered in blood, I faced the tension as thin as a glass membrane for the last time.
My instincts were telling me to run away quickly, but my feet wouldn’t move easily.
Sigh… … .
I exhaled slowly through my front teeth and held on tightly to the jungle sword I had caught in reverse.
And then he pointed his other finger at the bastard as if to tell him to come first and wiggled it.
Kkakakak!
How dare you!
The man, enraged by this, ran towards me, flailing his only remaining arm and leg.
Likewise, I screamed and ran towards the guy, trying to swing my jungle sword.
Flash!
Boooooooooooo-!!
But then suddenly the tail lights came on and the Porter truck that had been stuck in the wall reversed.
bang!
The backing up truck slammed the oncoming man into a concrete wall.
Kaaaak!
Q2, whose body was suddenly stuck, screamed in pain and flailed his whole body.
Ki-ki-ki-ki!
“Now is the time!”
However, Private Lee Hyeon-su, who was behind the wheel, desperately drove backwards and tried to catch the guy.
Literally now is the chance.
I picked up the shotgun I had left on the floor and tried to load the bullets from the belt.
“Take this!”
At that moment, Sergeant Park Deok-gu, who appeared from behind, threw something as if that wasn’t enough.
It’s none other than a fragmentation grenade.
It was the perfect weapon to cut off Q2’s tenacious breathing apparatus.
widely!
I snatched a grenade out of thin air and ran madly towards the struggling guy.
ping!
And at the same time, he pulled out the grenade safety ring, stepped on the truck body, and jumped up.
Kkakakakak-!!
Q2 instinctively opened his mouth wide as he saw the prey flying towards him.
Without missing that gap, I shoved the jungle knife I was holding into the bastard’s mouth.
Kwajik!
Crunch, crunch!
Flesh is torn and hideous teeth are broken.
Having secured the jungle fence so that it wouldn’t close, I this time thrust in a grenade with the pin pulled out.
Gulp!
Q2 instinctively swallowed the grenade that had entered his mouth and rolled his eyes.
I lock eyes with him.
I just ended up chuckling.
3 seconds!
I pulled the jungle knife out of the bastard’s mouth and flew with all my might in the opposite direction.
“Get down!”
At the same time, Private Lee Hyeon-su escaped from the vehicle and Sergeant Park Deok-gu also lay down on the ground.
Huh?
Kwaaaaang-!!
At that moment, a huge explosion occurred, and black flesh and blood splattered everywhere.
The battle ended with a torrent of dirty excrement falling from the sky.
All the truth is gone.
We decorated the climax with a spectacular explosion, as if we were filming a scene from a movie.
* * *
All of the mutants we’ve faced so far have been threatening, but if you know the right strategy, you can easily deal with them.
But this mutant, Q2, had an intelligence far beyond imagination.
It created so many variables that even I was surprised, especially in terms of learning speed.
If the mutants evolve further and become more cunning, will the survivors be able to survive?
Now, rather than feeling the joy of winning the battle, I was more worried about what would happen next.
“Oh, oh …
“Just hold on a little longer, kid.”
Many of the party members were injured and much of the equipment was damaged, to the point where it seemed as if something like this had ever happened before.
In particular, Kim Jin-kyung, who always played an active role at crucial moments, was hit by the guy, rolled around, and was slammed into the wall so many times that I can’t even remember how many times.
If I hadn’t been born with a strong constitution, I would have died long ago.
“Are you really okay?”
“Well, this is enough to move.”
Last time it was a concussion, this time I have a big bruise on my shoulder and back.
I think I need to get a proper examination, but for some reason the situation isn’t favorable.
“Oh, it’s broken.”
Meanwhile, Jin-kyung Kim was clicking her tongue as if she was sorry about the shotgun being shattered into pieces.
It seems that he had long since forgotten that it was thanks to the shotgun’s sacrifice that he was okay.
“Let’s go.”
After regrouping, we left the scene where flesh and excrement were rolling around.
Now all that was left was to quickly reach the fifth basement floor where the machine room was located.
We slowly went downstairs, led by the few remaining sane people and hunting dogs.
Thump, thump, thump.
As we went down, the temperature dropped and the stench became worse.
I tried to endure it and walk, but my eyes were starting to sting and it was getting hard to breathe.
“Ugh, I can’t stand it.”
“Do you have any toilet paper left?”
We had no choice but to take out the gas masks we had brought and put them on, then continue down underground.
Chijijik.
The lights are blinking.
The underground parking lot, where the owner of the nest had disappeared, still contained damp air.
We finally entered the 5th basement floor without letting our guard down until the very end.
“Is this the right way?”
“This is correct in terms of the blueprint.”
Normally, the management team would have to come and go frequently to check the generator and internal systems.
But the management team member who suddenly lost contact was nowhere to be seen.
Where is the machine room?
I looked back and forth between the schematics and my surroundings, and began to search for the location of the machine room.
And soon, they discovered an area that matched the area drawn on the blueprint.
‘No access.’
As if to emphasize that this is an important facility, a sign saying “No entry for non-authorized personnel” is clearly posted.
And the engine room was surrounded by iron bars, and of course the entrance was open.
Judging by the sharp object biting it, it was clearly Q2’s doing.
We walked slowly through the perforated iron cage into the machine room.
Knock, knock.
The inside of the machine room was dark.
We turned on the floodlights and flashlights we had brought with us and looked around the inside of the machine room diligently.
The machine room, which was larger than expected, was filled with unidentifiable flesh and excrement.
“Ugh, shit.”
“It really smells like X.”
Even without explanation, I could tell who the owner of the bone fragment in Q2’s excrement was.
This time, I put my hand into the excrement and pulled out the clothes and objects that were caught in my hand.
“This is the management team uniform.”
“Here are your employee ID and ID card.”
Judging by the lack of response from Coco and Volvo, it seemed that no management team had survived.
After collecting as much of the remains as possible, we moved to start our own generator.
Fortunately, the operating manual remained intact, so it seemed possible to access it as long as one had access to it.
“Can you do it?”
“Hmm, it might take some time.”
As soon as I opened access using my older sister’s ID, Private Lee Hyeon-su approached me as if he had been waiting.
Judging from the fact that he didn’t say he couldn’t do it, it seems like it would be easy to turn on the system.
We left the facility operation to Private Lee Hyeon-su and diligently searched the inside of the machine room.
“Mr. Daesu, come this way for a moment.”
But at that moment, Sergeant Park Deok-gu, who had been carefully observing the scene, cautiously called out to me.
“Why are you doing that?”
“I found something strange. Would you like to take a look at this?”
Sergeant Park Deok-gu showed me something discolored, as if he had searched through one of the excrements.
It was a military uniform top, already half-torn and covered in dirty blood.
“Were you in the same platoon?”
“No, it was a corporal from the next platoon.”
Unlike the surviving members of Sergeant Park Deok-gu’s platoon, he appears to have had no luck encountering Q2.
But there was nothing unusual about the clothes other than the fact that they were discolored badly.
“That’s not the important thing.”
“yes?”
“This is the corporal. I saw him bite me clearly. He transformed as soon as he was bitten, and bit off the neck of the junior officer next to him.”
Sergeant Park Deok-gu held up his torn military uniform with a serious expression as if recalling the memories of that day.
Wait, you’re saying I’m already infected?
Didn’t he die from the mutant Q2?
“Then surely… … .”
The owner of the uniform was already infected and even attacked other survivors.
However, his last trace was found in Q2’s excrement, which was a digestive trace.
What that means is… … .
“It’s cannibalism.”
Q2 meant that it preyed not only on living survivors but also on infected people.
I was quite shocked by this strange phenomenon that I had never witnessed before.
Perhaps we had discovered the cause of the mutants that had previously eluded discovery.
Wooooow-!
Flash!
While I was lost in thought for a while, suddenly a loud noise was heard and the light turned on.
“Wow, this works?”
Private Lee Hyeon-su, who was looking through the manual, managed to restore the system.
The self-generator, which had been silent for a while, started up again, and the building’s power was finally at 100%.
Woohoo!
The building that had been gasping for breath began to pulse with lights as if it had found a new heart.
Now you can rest assured even if the city power goes out.
Having successfully completed the side objective, I let out a tired sigh and called out to my companions.
“Let’s go back.”
Q2 We’ve caught three out of five, so now there are only two left.
The Biogeneca building, which they had made their nest, was gradually turning into a human territory.
