How to Survive as a Villain in a Novel - Chapter 91



91 – Final Boss (1)

Shenyang underground laboratory.

Here, experiments were being conducted to extract the abilities of those with abilities and combine them in one place.

— Bubble!

Seo Hayoon throws herself into it.

A place where countless talents are melted and mixed together.

The incubator started to boil.

— The current process cannot be interrupted.

Even when I pressed the red button that seemed to indicate an emergency stop nearby, only that guidance sound was output.

“Uh, that… “

Han Chae-yoon, who broke through the laboratory’s magic engineering security, stuttered.

The boiling incubator was such a symbol of ominousness.

Is there no way to stop it anymore?

I looked inside.

Numerous high-tech machines placed in the monitoring room.

Of course, I have no idea how to deal with them.

Swish.

Han Chae-yoon also shakes her head.

‘I pressed the emergency button earlier.’

Damn it.

I don’t think there is a proper way to stop it?

After thinking about it, I realized.

“Ah.”

I was a villain.

Seonyeok tries to resolve everything peacefully.

But he is not a villain.

A top-notch villain must occasionally use proper explosions.

[ 00:59:59:99 ]

The main monitor in the monitoring room started blinking.

Are there 59 minutes left?

I went straight out the doorway.

“Are you going to destroy it?”

Han Chae-yoon, who followed immediately, asks.

After all, he is a colleague who reads my intentions well.

“As fast as possible. And be careful not to get hit by that culture medium.”

“Be careful?”

“Yes. I don’t know the principle, but it seems to be the core of that liquid’s function of melting abilities and extracting abilities.”

“…Ah.”

After a short period of thought, Han Chae-yoon nodded.

It means consent.

We arrived straight in front of the incubator.

“They say it’s big.”

It is a cultivation base, the size of which is no different from a reservoir. It also meant that so many talented people were fused together.

“Stay away. If anything splashes, protect it.”

“I understand.”

Han Chae-yoon immediately takes the rear position.

She took out her main weapon – a whip.

She is a woman who can swat away all the raindrops that come her way.

‘I have a strong back.’

I stood in front of her incubator, trusting that she would be able to handle all the culture fluid that might come up.

Worry for a moment.

It immediately aroused evil intent and strengthened the entire body.

[Body Strengthening]

I’ve trained a variety of abilities, but when I need to destroy something, there’s no simpler way than this.

— Wooo!

I just stuck my fist into the wall.

The ground shakes roughly.

Dust rises and obscures the view.

I could feel the hollow surface of the incubator.

…But.

“Damn.”

The fog cleared.

A sigh escaped my lips as I looked beyond.

Was the incubator okay?

My fist went in exactly.

I went in, but…

“A season for 100 years?”

Han Chae-yoon’s mumbling was heard from behind.

The outer material of a half-open, pitch-black incubator.

Because it was definitely the highest grade material in this worldview, ‘permanent years of iron’.

“You say something this big was created in 10,000 years of steel…?”

Han Chae-yoon murmurs in despair.

It’s worth it.

The price of perpetual iron is more expensive than that of any precious metal of the same weight. Of course, not all of the incubator is made of perpetual iron, but at least one-third of the walls of the incubator are permanent iron.

That means.

“… They took a country’s budget and put it in.”

What we have before our eyes now is a capacity extraction reservoir equivalent to the entire budget of a country.

Guessing how crazy the Shenyang Group has expanded endlessly.

Of course.

There was no way such expensive equipment could have been installed without any safety devices.

The red warning light came on.

— Bleep! Beep!

A sharp warning sound also fills the surroundings.

Han Chae-yoon and I exchanged glances.

I am a top-notch villain.

She is the vice-captain of the Black Cat Order.

As expected from experts in each field, we did not make a fuss or panic.

“No matter what happens, we have to destroy this.”

Han Chae-yoon nodded her head at my decisiveness.

“No matter what is born in that incubator, it will definitely be a disaster.”

An artifact created by combining tens of thousands of abilities.

As Han Chae-yoon said, it is clear that it is Jaeyang.

“I’ll seal off the surrounding area. Mr. Lee Han, keep destroying it.”

In an instant, the most efficient and similar conclusion is drawn.

What is certain is that there is no time.

— Wooo!

I slammed my fist down again.

…Damn all the time.

The dent was only about 5cm.

It was quite a sincere punch.

‘They dig all year long?’ If someone saw this, they would probably have said this in surprise. But what’s important to me now is not someone’s surprise.

A wall with a thickness of about 30cm remains.

We have to break through this.

— Wooo!

Hit it down.

— Wooo!

I hit it again.

This would not have been possible if not for the extreme increase in malice and resilience.

It is true that it is attached to power.

But you can’t give up.

Kuung.

The moment I punched again.

— Blah blah blah!

A spiderweb-shaped crack is engraved on the surface of the incubator.

It gradually expanded its area, filling the surface of the incubator with incontinence.

“Good.”

Three or four times in the future.

No, three times is enough.

The moment I was about to swing my fist again.

“Lee Han! Avoid!”

Han Chae-yoon’s urgent cry is heard from behind, far away.

I turned my head reflexively.

A pitch-black metal pillar shot at high speed fills the front of your eyes.

Kwaaang-!

“Fuck.”

Swearing that comes out without even realizing it.

I barely avoided the pillar by almost rolling on the floor.

Not a sword or a spear, but a pillar blown away?

What kind of ignorant attack is this?

I looked to the side, hoping that this attack might have destroyed the incubator.

“…”

There will only be another surprise.

The black metal pillar stopped exactly in front of the incubator.

The space between the two is within 1mm.

This is what I mean.

From noble mtl dot come

‘… He is an insanely talented person.’

He is capable of shooting such a huge pillar from a place where I can’t see and stopping it right in front of the incubator.

It means a monster with strength, speed, destructive power, and accuracy.

The outer wall of this space was broken through a pillar.

—Jerbug.

The sound of footsteps heard through the dust.

“I thought rats had sneaked into my lab.”

A profound but sharp voice filled the cavity.

Jeopuk.

A heavy presence weighs down the surroundings.

The dust cleared and the exterior was revealed.

A suit that looks like a luxury item.

A sharp face that seems to have been roughly chiseled.

And, the head cocked arrogantly as if looking down and the eyes filled with contempt.

An infinitely arrogant middle-aged man.

“Young people these days don’t seem to know what manners are.”

Seo Il-hwan.

The first generation of people with abilities to awaken, and the strongest.

The chairman of Shenyang Group looked down at us.

◆

“It’s dangerous.”

Han Chae-yoon summed up the situation in one word.

Okay. It’s dangerous.

Seo Il-hwan.

A famous figure as the first generation awakener and the strongest person of his generation.

At the same time, unlike other awakened people, he founded his own company and used all of his abilities to satisfy his own self-interest.

Founder of Shenyang Group, one of the world’s leading conglomerates.

That’s all we know about him.

There was a lot known about Seo Il-hwan as an ‘awakener’,

Very little is known about Seo Il-hwan as ‘Chairman’.

After founding the Shenyang Group, he literally disappeared as a person and disappeared.

Therefore.

‘Darkness.’

That’s how I defined Seo Il-hwan, who arrived alone in this crazy, suspicious underground space.

A dark figure hiding behind the story, controlling everything he touches.

An incubator that extracts human abilities.

He knows this place.

No, maybe only he knows.

It is a story about a place built for his purpose

Money. Authority. Ability.

The one who has everything.

The final boss of this worldview was clearly shrouded in mystery.

And it seems like it’s now clear who the boss is.

“Isn’t it too deep for the Chairman to come here?”

I corrected my posture and said.

The black pillar that was floating in the air as if it was stuck on the side disappears.

“That’s bold. I think his name was Lee Han.”

“Normally, for things like this, it would have been better to have someone below you and keep quiet.”

“I’ve heard his name a lot. He’s been active in quite a few places.”

Our conversation didn’t connect.

It was correct to say that it was a kind of exploration war and prelude.

It’s the kind of battle of wits where whoever bends over loses.

“My conclusion is this. The chairman of the Shenyang Group personally created this place and has been managing it. Why would a busy person be obsessed with extracting the abilities of talented people and combining them to create a monster?”

While Seo Il-hwan took a deep breath, I maintained control and continued speaking.

“This must have been a long-cherished project. The reason Shenyang Group was established in the first place was to do this bizarre and disgusting thing.”

“…”

“Isn’t that right?”

Wow…!

A sound of holding his breath could be heard from his mouth

But that’s only for a moment.

Haha!”

His large and uncomfortable smile filled the surroundings.

At the end, Seo Il-hwan finally gave me an answer.

“As I heard, he’s a very funny and smart guy.”

“Thank you.”

“It’s a little rude, but I like it.”

“It’s an honor.”

Hehe. Yes. Yes. It’s very fun. It’s been a while since I’m interested.”

He laughed, shaking his shoulders like that, and took a step forward.

“But what can we do about this?”

He raised his hand.

At the same time, a pillar rose from the ground.

What on earth is that magic?

“After seeing this place, I think you two should also go into the incubator.”
