RUST-522

Kiyong-

Director Yu Mark 2 was frozen in place. He could have just stretched out his finger and touched the touchscreen, but he couldn’t move. He probably had a gun pointed at the back of his head.

[say it.]

Kim Yang spoke to Mark 2.

“Don’t you know?” (What?)

[Anything.]

Clang – the sound of a machine gun being loaded.

So, the reason why you shouldn’t shoot and kill them, etc.

“If you want to shoot me, shoot me!” (If you want to shoot me, shoot me!)

Director Yu Mark 2 shouted.

Do you think I’d give in to that bitch’s threats?

What if I become a clone after being defeated?

I wasn’t afraid of dying again.

When you die, you can go to the clone outside.

Wouldn’t that be better?

Because it can be completely transformed from a puppy’s body.

I haven’t tried it, but it seems like it might work.

[Ha- You shit-talking bitch… Why are you acting like this when you were doing fine? Did you awaken some kind of psychic ability? This life is better even if you roll around in shit. It’s over when you die. But why are you acting so crazy, wanting to die?]

“······.”

[You should know since you have the original memories. You and I both really shot. Are you confident that you won’t die?]

“······.”

Kiyung-

The muzzle pointed at Director Yu Mark 2 went down with a motor sound.

[Hey- Tell me. It seems like you were trying to run away… Where are you going? You know the world is screwed. What are you going to do if you go somewhere other than here? You’re not going to run away and live like a mouse…]

Kim Yang, who was talking about pouring out her heart, saw an image that appeared on the HUD. It was the image of three women caught on CCTV.

Women wearing only their underwear and combat boots. They looked like triplets, with identical faces and the same height, but their appearance was different.

[seed-]

He swore quietly and opened the face shield of his exosuit helmet.

“Hey. That thing outside. That’s Director Yu’s face! Triplets? Three clones? Where did you get those? That’s what’s causing the Empire and the Confederacy to go crazy? Is this crazy bitch really going to die?”

“···I erased the traces.” (I erased the traces.)

‘Ah- this year, really.’

I raised him by changing dirty diapers, and now I’m feeding him shit like this?

‘Should I kill him? Mark 3 will be here soon.’

It’s time for Mark 3, who is growing up with a female mercenary as a surrogate mother, to come out. If things go as planned, when memory implants are done on Mark 3, there will be many parts of the activated memories that are different from those of Mark 2.

So, while Mark 2 and Mark 3 have some things they remember in common, they also have different memories. The hypothesis was that if they filled in each other’s missing memories, they would become clones with more complete memories.

Miss Kim had a headache.

In the past, he would have just shot him coolly and given it a try, but now he was in the great position next to him. He was second in line. Making decisions that benefited the Holy Kingdom was also beneficial to him.

“···So. Those three clones. You brought them with you?”

“······.”

Director Yoo Mark 2 glanced at Ms. Kim. Her eyes were like those of a crazy woman on the verge of turning red. She would have just blurted out, “Where the hell did you get those eyes?”, but now she was in the shape of a brat.

Above all, the situation was such that the kids waiting outside were caught. Even if they got shot here and changed their bodies, it would be difficult to escape.

Mark 2 nodded, holding back the seizure he was about to have without realizing it.

“Where did they come from? The Empire? Or the Confederacy?”

“Empire···.” (Empire.)

Kim Yang closed her eyes at Director Yoo Mark 2’s answer.

What if they find out that they’ve smuggled out clones while also taking the guys who destroyed the Homeland Security secret lab? The friendly atmosphere they’ve had so far will all be blown away in an instant.

“AI. Organize and delete all CCTV files separately.”

[CCTV footage separate backup completed. Storage device formatting begins.]

Kim Yang glared at Mark 2 with wide eyes.

“And then you get a fight. You bring them inside.”

“Okay.” (Okay.)

This wasn’t something I had to decide alone.

Ms. Kim informed Maru of the current situation through an emergency report.

‘It hasn’t been that long since Kisun sent the video.’

======

======

Kkeuddeud-

The thing on Eclipse’s surface looked like a scab that forms when you get hurt. That’s why Maru was forcibly holding on to the scab.

‘This didn’t happen when I killed seagulls or acid rats···.’

The scabs appeared after killing the giant rat.

‘Anyway, now that the scab has formed, does this mean that the melted or lost part of the mountain will be refilled?’

I wish it were so, but what can I do?

[A report came directly from Yania Kim.]

It was a video that was uploaded right away without waiting for AI analysis. Maru was dumbfounded after watching the video.

“Crazy. So you stole the Empire’s clone? Director Yu Mark 2?”

The reason the Empire and the Southern Alliance started fighting in Seattle was because of the Mark 2? Even the way they stole it was crazy.

[···This is dangerous. If this video is true, it means that all the clones made based on Director Yoo can be stolen.]

If the Empire found out about this, even the most generous Chancellor Den Brown would be furious.

“I’m going to turn back.”

I tried to wait quietly, but I couldn’t just sit there.

What if Ki-sun gets captured by the Empire? They’ll ask about the clone’s whereabouts, and there’ll be no chance of releasing Ki-sun, who found out about Director Yu’s clone.

Even if it wasn’t disposed of, it was still a problem. Since Ki-sun was a tentacle monster, he would be carefully dismantled and become a research subject.

‘What a fucking idiot.’

If you don’t like it, then come back quickly. I don’t know how it got to that point.

‘No matter how much I like Naru, it’s like that.’

Tsk-

I couldn’t let my only remaining friend die, so I had to go. I couldn’t stop Hood either. If I didn’t catch Ki-sun right away, things could get even more complicated.

So Maru headed to Seattle.

[I’ll tell you in advance, you might get hurt, so prepare well.]

“······.”

Kim Yang informed him that Maru was coming in person. Director Yu Mark 2 had no clear memories of Maru.

That was strange. I remember other things pretty well, but I don’t remember being cut by Maru at the end.

“What the hell?” (What do you want me to do?)

[What should I do? Don’t act like a loser and show off your dignity. Behave properly. Even if you die, it will be in my hands.]

Wooooow-

The airship landed with a low propeller sound.

A small high-speed airship made by the Holy Kingdom using the technology of the Empire. Compared to large airships that can load over 150 tons, it was 15 times smaller, but it was a unique airship of the Holy Kingdom that had superior high-altitude cruising capabilities to any existing airship.

Cheeeeeeek-

The central entrance opened downwards and a man armed with a ripper suit descended.

Director Yu Mark 2’s pulse seemed to be racing. It was clearly the first time he had seen him like this, but his nerves were on edge. As he got closer, step by step, his heart started to pound like it was breaking down.

‘Why? Why···. Is my heart pounding like this?’

Mark 2 was not a child of three or four years old. Even though it was a fragment, it was Director Yu’s memories and spirit, so this kind of excitement was strange.

Hah-hah-

At the sight of Mark 2 breathing heavily, Kim Yang slightly shook her head and took a step forward. At first glance, it seemed like she was trying to help Mark 2, but Director Yu Mark 2 had different thoughts.

‘You suddenly blocked my way and started talking nonsense.’

I tilted my head to the side and saw Maru walking towards me with brisk strides.

!!!

As soon as our eyes met, my heart started pounding as if it was going to burst and my head started to heat up.

‘This is···.’

The most similar thrill was the one he felt on the battlefield where blood and flesh were flying. A previous life? So the intense sensation that the original had had was tangled in Director Yu’s brain.

A feeling of floating, floating. It felt like his chest was going to split open and his heart was going to pop out, like he was going to be split in half from the top of his head. Director Yu Mark 2 groaned.

Heung-

Kim Yang lowered her head at the strange sound she heard from below her waist. There was Mark 2, with a dangerous-looking expression. His cheeks were flushed red, and his eyes were completely dilated.

Her gaze was fixed on Maru. He had the face of a 3~4 year old and was making a perverted expression. While Miss Kim was getting tired of it, Maru approached her.

[Are you here?]

“Okay. How’s the situation?”

Maru got straight to the point.

[The Imperial Army has succeeded in encircling it. The Ki-sun and O-jin Group security teams are trying to break through it.]

The story is that in order to extract Gisun, you have to break through the siege of the imperial army.

“That’s not good. The Ojin Group Security Team? Not the Southern Army?”

[The Southern Army has also been continuously reinforced recently, but the ones surrounded are Kisun and Ojin Group’s security team. Their combat uniforms are the old World PMC uniforms.]

“World? Did you absorb that side? Well… Tell me where Ki-soon is, and send me the necessary information right away.”

[Okay. Big- and there he is. Mark 2. Poopy diaper- that’s him. Is this the first time you’ve seen him this big?]

Hehehe-

? “What’s wrong with him? Does he hurt somewhere?”

[Big-uh-uh, I don’t know. You must have seen the data, but it can do things like possessing clones made by the Empire, and it can even control some of them. It seems like it could be helpful.]

“Ice? Can a clone have its mind enter it?”

[I think so. Hey- Come on and change your body.]

The boy who had been swaying for some reason suddenly began to stiffen. A moment later, a woman wearing a royal army uniform approached with light footsteps.

Maru’s expression turned cold as he saw the face of the woman who was smiling brightly. It was because it was Director Yu’s face. Director Yu Mark 2 paid no attention to Maru’s cold expression. Instead, he responded with a good feeling.

“That guy. He was called Gi-sun. We’ll lure the Imperial Army, so why don’t we take him out while we’re at it?”

Behind Director Yu Mark 2, two women with identical faces came in. Maru muttered without realizing it.

“What the···.”

Kim Yang nodded as if she understood Maru’s reaction. ‘Girae. I felt the same way.’

Maru coughed in vain to distance himself from Director Yu Mark 2, who was so cooperative and friendly. Despite the burden, her plan was the most effective.

“There’s no need to kill the Imperial Army or the Southern Army. Our goal is to take out Ki-sun, not kill people, so be careful.”

[Okay.]

“You don’t have to worry, it’s okay.”

Maru felt strange because it seemed like the two women were looking at him competitively.

‘Why is Ms. Kim acting like this again? The side effects of the psychotic terrorism should have ended a long time ago.’

Maru, who somehow avoided the hot gaze, sorted out the situation.

“As soon as the Imperial siege is lifted, I will take control. As soon as the operation is successful. Evacuate from the battlefield.”

[Okay.]

“OK”

The operation began with Director Yoo, Mark 2, and the clones enlisting, Yang Kim providing support, and Maru capturing Ki-sun.

“Over there. They’re clones.”

“Report it right away.”

“The order is to secure the clones first.”

“We’ve just created a siege, and now you want us to withdraw our men?”

“The important thing is to secure the clones.”

“The order is to shoot and burn the clones before they are stolen from the South.”

As Director Yu Mark 2 and the clones drew the aggro, the net surrounding Ki-sun and the security team became thin in an instant.

[Not listening?]

[If it’s Ki-soon, he’ll know that the siege has changed and escape. It’ll leave less of a trace if I catch him after he escapes than if I go in.]

Since Maru’s words were right, Kim Yang moved towards Director Yu, Mark 2, and the clones.

[Okay. Then I’ll look after the shithead.]

[Oh. Good work.]

In that brief moment when Maru and Kim Yang were talking, Ki-soon moved just as Maru had predicted.

“Stop it!”

Tudadadak-

Yes, yes, yes-

Ki-sun, who had created a shield with his tentacles to block bullets, jumped into the thin encirclement.

“You freaking bastard, die!”

The body-enhancing ability user swung a thick mace at the tentacle shield.

Sobbing-

Wiggle-

The tentacles that were naturally writhing naturally deflected the full-force attack.

Slippery-

The tentacles swung towards the head of the ability user who had lost his balance.

Ppujijik – The severed neck was impaled on a tentacle that shot out and turned into a skewer.

“Whoaaaaah! Monster!”

“Hold your seat. Hold your fucking seat.”

“Shoot! Napalm. Napalm grenade!”

A hot flame shot up with an explosive sound.

Flares exploded and signal flares rose, creating a red landscape.

Whiriliririririk-

The sight of tentacles swaying in all directions, simultaneously disintegrating imperial troops and trees.

Ki-soon walked nonchalantly. The direction was not towards the Southern Army, but towards Director Yu Mark 2 and the clones.

Illeung- Maru appeared from the shadows and greeted Gisun.

[Hey. Kisun.]

Churiq!

Lid!

The tentacles shot out like a water fountain and collided with Eclipse, sending sparks flying.

[Hey, shit. Ki-soon, have you forgotten my voice?]

“······.”
