Rust [RUST] – Episode 1065
The force of criminals broke through the defense line and ran to their planned location.
“Speed up!”
“Hey, you want to drive? Huh?”
“We are here. Stop!”
“Where to next?”
“Go a little further!”
“Just around the corner.”
The members of the organization got out of the tactical vehicle and dispersed to their respective target buildings.
“Look under the floor. I heard they converted the basement and underground storage room into a bunker.”
“Damn. I don’t know where he’s hiding, so search everything.”
That’s what the fooled idiots had told me. They had been decorating the basement and warehouse as a bunker for months.
“You can tell right away who the upper class are by looking at them.”
“Let’s catch all the kids who are showing off.”
“If you don’t know, just bring it all over.”
The sound of anti-tank missiles exploding could be heard in the distance. Javelin or Tow, the firepower was too weak to take down the monster crocodile. If you expected the angry monster to go on a rampage, you had plenty of time.
“The monster crocodile will rampage for at least 20 minutes… but all within 15 minutes.”
“If you have something you like, don’t waste time and bring it to me.”
“Go and do it. Finish everything and then go.”
“This time, whoever is talking nonsense will definitely be killed.”
“If we miss this opportunity, we’re all screwed.”
“Stop whining and disperse.”
Although they were just ordinary criminals, they were a criminal organization that included people with awakened physical abilities and cannibals.
Those with similar fighting power, who had been growling and fighting moderately, gathered in groups of three or five and scattered.
“Let’s drag him out no matter what.”
“Let’s sort it out outside and catch them all first.”
“On time! It’s 15 minutes. 15 minutes.”
“I’m going to abandon that idiot who’s wasting time like an idiot.”
Although most criminals were physically gifted, there were still a few who had abilities similar to sensing.
“This way. There’s a door under the carpet here.”
Some people had the ability to sense what was on the other side of walls, while others had the ability to detect movement from a distance, like radar.
“What’s strange? It feels like something is constantly moving outside.”
“Not below, but outside?”
I looked outside the glass door at the words of the person with the sensory ability, but there was nothing special except for the tactical vehicle waiting.
“There’s nothing?”
“There’s no way that’s true?”
“Come out and see.”
“Really not? Then what is this feeling? FUCK—!”
The person with the ability to sense shook his head and cursed quietly. One of the people who saw it nearby gave a thumbs up.
“Did you do it? I told you not to do it today because you need to be alert.”
“No···. Ten– You have to do that. The awakening series says that doing that makes detection more sensitive. And I haven’t done it much.”
“Idiot.”
“It’s so noisy.”
“I’ll take Min Guam-”
“Where are you feeling sensitive?”
“FUCK!”
“Shut up and watch what happens.”
As the giggling crowd pushed away the cheap carpet, a door leading down to the basement was revealed. They repeatedly blasted the handle with shotguns, smashing the lock, and then threw homemade tear gas canisters in.
“Hey- it’s a gift.”
“It would be better if you crawled out on your own.”
The tear gas canisters were connected at every joint just like a fox. Boom- Boom- Pwoong- Each time a joint exploded, a loud explosion was heard and tear gas continued to rise.
“How many seconds can I hold out?”
“What’s the point of holding on? If you don’t have experience, you’ll just get screwed.”
With each explosion, screams of “Kyaak-Kyaak-” erupted. Coughing sounds. Tears poured down, and the sound of crying as if dying from pain that made you feel like you were going to go blind was mixed in.
In less than 30 seconds, most of the people who came out were in their early to mid-20s. The few who appeared to be security guards were subdued as soon as they got up.
They say it’s tear gas, but if it explodes in a confined space like this, it’s almost like a lethal weapon.
“It’s a moonfish.”
“If there are bodyguards, they are here.”
Things seemed to be going according to the criminal organization’s plan.
“How about you?”
[There were some guys here who held out until the end, so I blew them up.]
I thought I heard a loud noise.
“What about the other side? It seems like the signals don’t reach there from here.”
[Billy? Wait a minute.]
A man asks those struggling with tears and snot from the tear gas while checking on the team that went to the other side.
“Are there more people down there?”
Those with bloodshot, red eyes and tears streaming down their faces shook their heads.
“Is that so?”
‘That has to be true, or else something bad will happen,’ muttered the man, before starting the timer on the priest bomb and throwing it into the basement.
“It will explode in 10 seconds. If you want to live, come out now!”
The inside of the underground space, densely packed with tear gas, rustled as people wearing oxygen masks turned over began to rush up.
“Hehehe – then that’s true.”
“They were the only ones wearing oxygen masks.”
“I knew this would happen.”
It was a criminal organization that took off the oxygen masks of those who came up like that, tied their hands behind their backs with cable ties, and tied them in a line like a rope.
Kwaaaaang-
An explosion so powerful that flames shoot out from the entrance to the basement. Will this be the end, whether or not there are more people hiding inside? Gyaaaak- Gyaaaak- I enjoy the screams for a moment.
“Hey, Billy? You still haven’t heard from him?”
[Chijijik- I have to finish here and go- chiiieik]
“You’re going? I’m done organizing here, so I’ll go from here.”
[Chijijijijik-chiiieik]
Most of the emergency walkie-talkies sold in supermarkets were made in China. And they were made before the apocalypse.
“I told you kids to charge their batteries on time.”
“Everyone, get out.”
“Young gentlemen, please follow along. Young ladies, please stop whining and go out.”
Those guys who started to categorize the people who went out like that. They pushed the ones who looked somewhat alive to one side and also separated the ones who looked okay.
“The house is a bit shabby. This way.”
“No. Over there.”
Hearing gunshots ringing out here and there, it seemed like resistance was fierce elsewhere. The eyes of those who had been giggling suddenly widened.
Shake-
It was because it felt like the ground beneath my feet was shaking.
“······?”
“······?”
“······!”
Kkuuddeuk- The road split open for a moment, and the tactical vehicle at the very front was half-sucked into the gap.
“Fuck-”
“Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaa–”
“FUUU——–”
The prisoners, whose hands were tied with cable ties, began to writhe like caterpillars.
A woman slips into a crack with a short scream. The situation quickly becomes a mess, with even a man falling in with her as he tries to save her.
“What is this!”
“It’s not an earthquake!”
I don’t know what it was, but it wasn’t an earthquake. If it was an earthquake, everything would have been in shambles, but the roads were just bursting with gopchang.
Kkuddeuk—
Another huge crack opening up.
“What is that?”
“what?”
“There’s a gap there! Behind the armored car!”
“That thing. Is it moving?”
“Yeah, that’s it!”
“Chew- ant?”
“What the—- HELLLL!!!”
“Mother—fu–”
The ants were melting and chewing through the tires.
Tires on a wheeled armored vehicle melt and tear? To ants?
That wasn’t all. The armor was melting as well. The armor that could easily stop 7.62mm armor-piercing bullets was slowly being eaten away like a biscuit.
The driver of the armored vehicle stepped on the accelerator in fear, but the melted and torn tires could not support the power and just spun around in vain.
In an instant, ants began to enter the armored vehicle one by one, having dug holes in the armor plate. There was a loud engine noise and a desperate scream. The gunfire was cut short.
“Run away!”
“Get on quickly. Hurry up.”
Those who hurriedly dragged the kids they classified as rich and ran to the armored vehicle at the back. However, before they could get there, the armored vehicle at the back also sank into the ground.
“What the—”
A bizarre sight, with armored vehicles and trucks parked on the road being sucked into the gaping gap. Without a car, there was no escape.
Although there is a base in nearby Palmerston City, it is more than 6 to 7 km away.
Even if you abandoned all the prisoners and ran, it would take at least 30 minutes. Considering the small and medium-sized monsters and mutated insects in the middle, it was tantamount to suicide.
“Move! There are pups waiting at the escape route.”
As one person shouted, the crowd, which had been stunned for a few seconds, began to move again. And to greet them were their comrades who had rushed out from the building next door.
“The prisoner?”
“Where is the armored vehicle?”
Each team leader shouted at each other.
“Fuck. There’s a bunch of armed rats in the basement of that building.”
“The ants dragged me in.”
The eyes of the two people who answered simultaneously met in the air.
“Armed rat?”
“Ants in an armored car?”
As we headed toward the cracked road, our eyes moved to the side. We could see an armored car and a truck stuck in the cracked road. There was also a swarm of ants swarming around the armored car.
“The prisoner?”
“It looks like a pack of rats has eaten it.”
It was a mid-level manager who explained with his teeth chattering.
“They’re a bunch of crazy rats. They used guns. They even lured us by pretending to be people and attacked us.”
“A rat shoots a gun? A gun used by a person?”
“No-. Chew- Let’s go for now. I’ll show you on the way.”
“Have you all seen ‘Run quickly, quickly’?”
“Have you seen the ants chewing on the armored car?”
“Run straight or you’ll end up as ant food.”
“Just let me go, except for the things I need to use for negotiations.”
Ants digging traps in the ground were terrible, but there were also rats that used human tools. The idea was to use useless prisoners as bait rather than carrying around scorpions.
“Everyone scatter!”
“Please save me!”
“Do you want to die here?”
“Run to the building or get out quickly!”
Tang – When I shot him between the calf and ankle, the woman who had been clinging to me and asking me to go with her collapsed.
“If you don’t want to end up like this, run!”
“Ahhhh! Help me!”
He was a member of a criminal organization who shot the leg of a pretty woman he had taken a picture of.
“Fuck- stop being so noisy and run!”
The officer, who was sensitive to noise, ran as if he had been attacked by a swarm of rats. Only after the armored vehicles and trucks controlling the escape route in the distance came into view did the subject of rats come up again.
“This is the weapon used by the rat that attacked us.”
“This is-”
It was a toy gun, roughly 30cm long and 35cm wide at most. The shape of the two pipes attached to each other was exactly like a shotgun.
A toy gun with a small buttstock and oddly proportioned barrel. The finish was also poor, with rough marks here and there.
“This isn’t a toy gun. This is a gun that uses 9mm.”
“······.”
The tiny trigger was too small for a human finger to fit through. The more I looked at it, the more I realized that it wasn’t a scaled-down model of a gun used by humans.
“Plus, they were wearing gas masks.”
“Gas mask? A rat?”
“Yeah. We planned to use tear gas and catch them if they came out, and if they didn’t, we went in and subdue them···.”
What was waiting inside was a pack of rats armed with gas masks and guns.
“······.”
“You won’t believe it. Me too. That’s why I brought this.”
When I asked why he had brought a gun that looked like a model shotgun, silence fell when he said it was to provide evidence that a pack of rats had used it.
“······.”
“······.”
Australia was already a paradise for mutant monsters. Having survived in a country where all sorts of monsters pop up, I thought there was nothing to be surprised about anymore. A bunch of rats carrying guns and gas masks.
As I pulled the pump-loader apart, a 9mm bullet ricocheted from the chamber. It was a Parabellum cartridge, the type used in standard 9mm pistols.
Breaking the brief silence, the cry of a crow was heard from somewhere.
Kaaaak-(here-)
Kaaaak- (Look here-)
crow?
There aren’t any crows around here, right?
People who were hurriedly heading towards the escape route stopped in their tracks at the sight of crows flying in a circle.
Kaaaak! (That’s right!)
Kaaaak! (Stop!)
Caw! Caw! (1st squadron tactical vehicles!)
Kaaaak! Kkak! (2nd squadron is a bunch of humans!)
It’s a bomb!
A flock of crows flying in a circle split in two and began to dive sharply.
“That one now.”
“It’s the Holy Kingdom! It’s a bombing!”
People scattered in all directions like a swarm of bees. The crow bombing squad did not distinguish between forces. It was because He had ordered them to wipe them all out.
bang!
The armored vehicles and trucks guarding the escape route were engulfed in flames. The criminal forces consisting of cannibals and power users, as well as the captured multinational forces, began to dance passionately in the flames.
Even though he was a cannibal and a power user, he couldn’t run faster than a crow. The only one who managed to escape the bombing was a person with an acceleration ability who jumped into a nearby building, but what awaited him was a swarm of rats wearing gas masks.
Dozens of rats were barricaded just behind the main gate, guns pointed at them. They were firing a mixture of monster bullets and armor-piercing bullets.
“FUC···.”
Bang-bang-bang-tapang- thud.
Even if you had the ability to accelerate instantly, you couldn’t avoid all those gun barrels and bullets. In an instant, the escape route and the surrounding area turned into a sea of fire.
The exosuit was rendered useless by the swarm of ants and rats. All tactical vehicles and motorcycles were unusable.
Not only was the loss of mobility a problem, but there was nowhere to run. There were crows in the sky, rats on the ground, and ants underground.
‘I have to run away.’
‘It is the Holy Kingdom.’
‘Those crazy guys are really here.’
Several stealth users desperately ran towards the base. The distance to the base was about 7km. If they kept running like this, they would arrive in 20 to 30 minutes.
(The stealth will be released in the middle. You should be able to keep a distance of about 3~4km.)
(Run like this. Be careful not to lose your stealth.)
(Watch your step and if something seems strange, take a detour…)
Thud – With a dull sound, the head of the preceding stealth ability user was shattered into pieces.
(Scattered – I’m on the left.)
(Fuck- let’s see it alive!)
How did you hit him while he was hiding? Judging by the bullet that exploded in his head, it was at least 12.7mm in caliber. That means it was a sniper shot.
‘How can you snipe something that is invisible by stealth-‘
The dagger stuck in his neck spun half a turn and shattered his cervical vertebrae. The rippling space distorted, and the Ripper suit, revealing his body as it was, was reflected in his pupils.
[I caught one here!!!]
[Ah- Come this way–]
[Don’t shoot the head!]
[I told you I was going to extract brain information!]
[Just leave your head alone!!!!]
The same voice that sounds so noisy and raucous.
[Oops. One came this way!]
[Ah- Really—]
[What about the head?]
[I just pierced the stomach.]
The voices that seemed out of place in reality were somehow lively and noisy.
[Let’s not take risks!]
[Okay-Okay-I cut off your arm now, so you’re safe. Safe-]
The stealth ability user, whose neck was pierced and whose cervical vertebrae were broken and whose nerves were severed, was unable to move a single finger. The tenacious vitality characteristic of the Awakened person was holding onto consciousness, but that was all.
Keugh- Keugh- (Save me- Save me-)
[Ah- You’re not dead? Sorry? I’ll make it easy for you.]
Woojik – The dagger that had turned half a turn cut off the neck.
