Steel eating player chapter 22
Seoul Station, Class F and Class S-1

===========================

The black smoke flowing out of Lee Hyun-wook’s mouth-It was too late when Yang Joo-seop noticed the suspicion.

Fu-hwa-ah-ah-ah-

Red flames hit Yang Joo-seop.

“Oh, ah ah! Poetry, fuck! Hey motherfucker! This, does this make sense?”

Yang Joo-seop’s voice that shouted so much contained embarrassment rather than pain.

In one room, one room he could not understand, he fell into a state of grogi.

Even though I have fought a lot of battles as a player…

‘······This doesn’t make sense!’

This time, I had no idea what the opponent’s weapon was.

Usually, a player’s combat style is determined within the’traits’ they have acquired.

In short, paladins use swords and shields, and wizards use wands or wands as a medium to use magic.

However, there were exceptions.

For example, just because’priest’ did not mean’heel’. They also stand at the forefront with swords and shields covered with divine power.

And among the wizards, there are also snipers who use ‘magic bullets’ by attaching ‘enchant’ to bullets instead of wielding a staff.

Such cases are often referred to as’variant armed forces’.

However, this variation was also within the predictable category because there was a’degree’.

“But the cub City, steer Wen iron balls …… suddenly ppum attend the fire.”

Yang Joo-seop’s faint consciousness thought so in favor of evil.

The moment when Lee Hyun-wook was trying to stop the iron orb attack sent by Lee Hyun-wook very easily and attack with elation-Lee Hyun-wook opened his mouth and a red flame spewed out like a tornado and struck him all.

After that scene, Yang Joo-seop’s will was blurred.

‘I thought it was his matchmaking, but it was reverse matchmaking….’

Since he possessed the characteristic of being a “tree spirit,” he had the confidence to pull out dozens of “stems” and block them no matter how many hundreds or thousands of pieces of iron were blown.

But…… it wasn’t “fire”.

Until now, only enemies who use fire, the supreme nature of wood, have been avoided at all costs, but I never imagined that they would be swept away by the flames so vainly.

‘Fuck…… But I thought a pretty good end would be waiting for a villain…….’

Villain, the usage was obviously not positive.

But for some, the message to become a wicked person and destroy the world could be more persuasive than the message to be a hero and save the world.

Especially, it was certainly so for someone who was full of hatred for the world.

So, on the day that Yang Joo-seop killed his teammates one by one in the’dungeon’, when the quest to become a villain came up in front of him, he pressed’Accept’ without worrying for a long time.

‘It’s not that I did anything wrong, the whole world…

From a human point of view, villain is a villain. From a more macroscopic point of view, is it really justice? Isn’t it a real cause to get rid of the humans who dominate and exploit this planet? ····.

Yang Joo-seop had been doing the “Villan Quest” repeatedly thinking that way.

By the way, it will be such a vain end…

Then, I saw the light.

His eyes were open.

“Keep! Ker-he….”

He is not dead yet.

But… death had come before his eyes.

It was Lee Hyun-wook, a man looking down at him.

“······Yang Joo-seop, that’s all for your self-rationalization.”

“What, what? Big, big-huh!”

At the moment, Yang Joo-seop had no choice but to have a question.

Self rationalization…

‘······How the hell do you know my heart?’

However, the worries could not be resolved.

It is because the iron beads flew and pierced his heart.

Lee Hyun-wook raised his left hand and collected the iron beads.

“You caught the black tentacle Yang Joo-seop early.”

Villain Yang Joo-seop, who will be called Black Tentacles, who later climbed up to the A-class player,

He cut off the shoots before he grew worse.

And it’s a natural story, but Lee Hyun-wook wasn’t looking into Yang Joo-seop’s heart.

I just guessed it because I’ve been accustomed to seeing that every villain’s mind is that way.

‘The tribes who wrap their crimes against humanity in plausible masses….’

Lee Hyun-wook was going to dispose of such things one by one in the future.

And······.

-Obtained’Key 2 of the Archaic Armory’.

Yang Joo-seop was going to take over this item from the monster “Evil Seeker”.

‘I can’t use it right now, but…….’

Still, as it was one of the core items of Villain Quest, it was a guy who would play a very decisive role someday.

Lee Hyun-wook put it deep in his arms.

That wasn’t the end of the reward.

-(!) The quest has arrived.

“quest······.”

The quest was a very special direction given by the system.

[Hidden Quest]

-Those who embrace the light, will be the dawn of the world!

You have stopped the conspiracy of the betrayer of mankind, “Villan”.

This gave me an opportunity to become a “guardian”, the protector of mankind.

This quest will lead you to become the light of the world.

* Would you like to accept the quest? (Y/N)

“Guardian······.”

Villain’s counter-payment that threatens humanity, the Guardian who protects humanity

I was given the opportunity to be part of that organization.

‘But not yet. If you get entangled with the Guardian now, you’ll get tired.’

The reason was the same as not wanting to remain in AMT.

Engaging with an organization inevitably hinders the numerous benefits that can be obtained by moving independently.

“refuse.”

-Are you really going to refuse? (Y/N)

* Choose carefully! You may not have the next chance!

Guardians, they were surely helpful.

For Humanity-Those who joined forces to confront Villain, and many heroes who were destined to become colleagues with Lee Hyun-wook in the future, belong to the current Guardian or will soon belong.

‘But not all Guardians are friendly. Rather, it could be the worst enemy.’

Worst enemy,

To understand this point, you first needed to know villain well.

There were two main types of villains.

Like Yang Joo-seop, who had just killed, people who received quests and became villains were generally defined by the system, but there were players who decided to become the axis of evil by themselves regardless of that.

chamberlain······.

‘Gordon Price….’

Gordon Price, the head of the Villain Union, was the latter.

Those who are close to pure evil, not determined by the system….

Even though he never received anything like Villain Quest, he became the leader of the villains.

And he even…

“……The worst traitor of mankind.”

He belonged to the “Guardian”, the protector of mankind.

As such, the system and game present a certain edition, but it was the player who played with it.

In the past life, it was in control of this board.

However, this edition will be different, Lee Hyun-wook thought.

***

A “rescue team” from the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Horse Brigade stood in front of Exit 1 of Seoul Station.

It was 18 people below level 15, led by Lieutenant Hee-min Lee.

“Damn, why am I doing this, no matter how much I look at it, it seems like a suicidal act…”

Lee Hee-min mumbled like that and shook his head and struck my bulletproof hat.

“Woah, it’s okay, it won’t be much….”

The faces of the soldiers standing behind him also darkened.

He sighed, exhaling and reaching for the dome.

Then a system message came to mind.

-This is the level you can enter.

It seemed positive so far,

– caution! The area is 〈Danger Area〉. Once entered, you cannot exit unless certain conditions are met.

Soon a bloody phrase came to my eyes.

gulp-

Lee Hee-min turned his head and looked at the rescue team.

They all looked like children.

Fuck- he muttered and opened his mouth like that.

“······ Now, everyone! Enter! My, inside is dangerous! We don’t even know which gate is open, so everyone stay alert!”

So the entry began.

– caution! You have entered the 〈Dangerous Area: Unlucky Event〉.

In front of the rescue team who penetrated the message, the room on the second floor of Seoul Station, the spacious space, was unfolded.

“······.”

However, it was completely different from the feeling they used to know.

It was always a noisy and crowded space, but now it’s infinitely quiet, and it feels like time has stopped.

“······I can’t see a single body.”

It was somewhere weird.

It was expected that numerous victims had already occurred, but strangely, no traces of the massacre were found.

On the one hand, on the other hand, the tension doubled as the expectations were wrong from the first step.

Jumble- Jumble-

“······Now, Park Joon-mo, Choi Tae-yong go ahead to the right.”

Mintae Ahn instructed so.

He was still serving as a temporary squad leader and assistant commander of the rescue team.

And soon, it caught my eye.

“Look over there, platoon leader.”

A huge fissure that fluttered in purple, it was open in the center of the meeting room.

It was a gate that was the cause of all these events.

“By the way, there is something around the gate.”

Something huge was rolling around the gate with shattered pieces.

As I got closer, the outline was revealed.

It looked like a monster with multiple legs…

“Ugh! It’s a spider! It’s a huge spider!”

One of the 2nd Company female soldiers shouted and stepped back.

Because of that, other people were also surprised and lowered their posture.

“Oh, but that……”

Min-Tae Ahn tilted his head, raised his shield, and stepped forward.

There was no movement, and green smoke was oozing out of the crack.

“……That, it seems like they are all dead already.”

It was then.

“Who are you there?”

A voice came from above the stairs on the third floor.

“uh? Ah! We are the AMT rescue team!”

Hee-min Lee replied, and someone on the third floor showed up and beckoned to come up.

The rescue team watched the surroundings and went up the stairs in two rows.

Lee Hee-min, who took the lead, faced a man in a blue uniform, the security team leader at Seoul Station.

“Did you say it was a rescue team?”

“Yes, that’s right. This is the AMT rescue team.”

“Ah, we are Seoul Station Security Team 2.

The two shook hands.

“Hmm…… But I have a few words like this, but I can’t go out. How did you come to rescue me?”

“We can’t go out, but why don’t we have to keep the civilian survivors as much as possible in the remaining 5 hours and 20 minutes? We came into this limb with that mission.”

After all, is that the best…

The security team leader nodded with a bitter expression.

Lee Hee-min turned his head to see the survivors gathered on the foot court side.

“By the way, there seems to be no civilian victims… fortunately. What happened?”

“Oh, thanks to AMT members like you. I was still following his instructions.”

“······Yes?”

At the words of the security team leader, Lee Hee-min asked back, frowning.

This was because there was a name that came to mind if you were an AMT member here.

“Well, what’s his name?”

“Well, it was a corporal rank, but the name is that….”

The security team leader scratched his head to see if he couldn’t remember.

“Ah! Is it Corporal Hyun-wook Lee, right?”

It was Park Joon-mo who asked so much.

At that moment, Lee Hee-min turned his head with a vein around his neck.

“Hey boy, stay still! What are you interrupting?”

“Ah! Sorry!”

“Private baby doesn’t even know the subject, it’s really…….”

In response to Lee Hee-min’s irritability, the security team leader nodded with a trembling expression.

“······Hmm, that name is correct anyway.”

“That color, no, what the hell did that soldier do? It’s ridiculous to say that you were following such a guy’s instructions… Really, it’s F-class, that’s it.

The head of the security team hardened coldly at the end of the day.

“······.”

Hee-min Lee felt that it was a sudden rush without a spiritual context even when he thought of himself.

He shook his head as he became frustrated.

“······Well, anyway, from now on, I will lead. Lee Hyun-wook is just a soldier in our unit, a extremist. It’s F-class, so I don’t have the ability to save the people here.”

Lee Hee-min had already completely forgotten about the command he had heard from the battalion commander when he received the mission-to actively collect Lee Hyun-wook’s opinions.

‘What dare an officer on an F-class subject…….’

In his mind, the hatred for Lee Hyun-wook accumulated from a few days ago boiled.

“Hmm, F-class… Really? It doesn’t look that way at all.”

“Yes? So, will I, the rescue leader, lie? Class F is correct, that’s it.”

“Then, platoon commander, what’s the level of the platoon commander? The admission limit here is 15 level.”

The security team leader looked out of doubt.

“Oh, the level is just 15 level, so it’s right, I’m a C grade 3 tier.”

The E and D grades have a single grade, but from the C grade, a “tier” grade system is added.

From Tier 5 to Tier 1, there are a total of 5 steps.

This also meant that from the C grade, it was useful enough to divide the usefulness in very fine detail.

“Well, then I’m a C-tier 1, why do I have to follow the platoon commander’s instructions?”

“······Yes? No, then why did you follow the instructions of the F-class child?”

“No, because I am, you can’t understand this man, haha….”

The security team leader looked at Lee Hee-min with cynicism.

But soon, annoyance arose on his face.

“Ha- it’s crazy, it took the lives of eight hundred people, but this is a rescue team….”

Lee Hee-min also blushed at the security team leader’s explicit expression of emotions.

He was a very hot-blooded man, but he wasn’t able to discern enough to get angry here. If you talk to the security team leader now, you will have a lot to deal with.

His anger tended to burst when he didn’t have to deal with it.

And just in time, a familiar face appeared among the general public on the food court side.

It was the deputy platoon leader, Sergeant Choi Sun-ah.

“uh? Platoon leader?”

“Hey! Best! Where and what did this do…….”

Lee Hee-min, as expected, showed off his teeth while struggling.

“Where is Lee Hyun-wook’s child now? Tell him to come out quickly!”

“Oh, that is….”

“He’s been scouting downstairs for a while now.”

Instead of Choi Choi, the head of the security team said.

“What? Reconnaissance alone… Does that make sense?”

“Ha…….”

The guard sighed and opened his mouth.

“What the hell do you want to ask about? What kind of surveillance are we trapped here?”

“I’m not asking about it, are you confirming it as a rescue commander?”

Eventually, a spark splattered between the two, raising their voices, and the citizens gathered near the footcourt were forced to look more anxious as they looked at it.

It was then.

“······All be quiet.”

The voice that screams at the two,

It was Lee Hyun-wook.

Lee Hee-min quickly turned his head.

Lee Hyun-wook was climbing the stairs.

“What? Hey, you bastard! Why do you wander alone on your own…….”

“Be quiet, I told you to do it.”

“What? Fuck you, you fucking dare Where Place …… be quiet. ”

At that moment, something emerged from Lee Hyun-wook’s grasp, and was shot at a very high speed.

Hung-

“······Ugh!”

It stood tall in front of Lee Hee-min’s mouth.

Uh-

It was an iron bead the size of a finger.

Had it stopped a little bit late, it would have been a situation where all of my teeth would have been shattered.

“······.”

Lee Hee-min retreated back with a rather surprised expression.

Then I opened my eyes and looked at Lee Hyun-wook.

It wasn’t anger, it was a rather unfair expression of how the hell could be.

“Shh-”

“······.”

“Everyone, shut up and look over there.”

Lee Hyun-wook slowly raised his right hand and pointed somewhere under the terrace.

It was the gate.

Go-oh-oh-oh-oh-

But the gate was shaking.

It was a bit different from before.

“It’s a sign of a second eruption.”

Everyone swallowed dry.

The second battle was about to begin.

Lee Hyun-wook approached Lee Hee-min and looked straight into his eyes.

“The platoon leader almost put all of the survivors here at risk.”

“······.”

“Platform Captain, here, in the Unlucky Event area. As you asked me and the squad during the last operation, I would like you to adjust your voice so that it is not too loud.”

Lee Hee-min could not say anything.

That was what he said one day.

In that respect, he wasn’t unaware that he was wary of himself not like a commander, and above all…

Just now, it was completely overwhelmed by Lee Hyun-wook’s flag.

“I unintentionally signaled me threateningly, but I hope you understand the situation as it is a situation.”

“······.”

After saying that, Hyun-wook Lee gestured to the captain of the guard and Min-tae Ahn.

Two people approached Lee Hyun-wook.

“The second eruption will begin soon. You have to prepare for battle.”

The two nodded.

So naturally, Lee Hyun-wook started to direct everyone here.

People naturally listened to his voice and followed his opinion.

Lee Hee-min had no choice but to look at it blankly.

“Team Leader, for your reference, we found another gate downstairs. A double gate is correct.”

“······Damn it.”

“Don’t be too anxious about this, and don’t let people know. There will be more confusion.”

“That’s right, I see.”

At that time, when Ahn Min-tae beckoned somewhere, Park Jun-mo came with a duffel bag.

“Sergeant Hyun-wook Lee’s weapon, we brought it.”

It contained Lee Hyun-wook’s armaments, such as a tactical vest, M9 (Incent), and the sword of the cloud, as well as Sergeant Choi Choi’s armament.

Lee Hyun-wook wore a janggu-ryu and put the sword of the cloud behind his back.

“Okay, let’s start.”

When the security team leader beckoned, 6 guards and 3 civil players moved.

As Ahn Min-tae noticed, the rescue team settled in place.

“Gentlemen, hundreds of lives are in our hands.”

Finally, when Lee Hyun-wook gestured, everyone raised their weapons.

“······.”

But then, everyone’s eyes naturally focused on one point.

Lee Hyun-wook, he was raising both hands to the waist level….

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-

On both palms of his hand,

Twenty iron marbles soared and started spinning like a whirlwind-in a spiral shape.
