RUST -569

The security team leader’s face crumpled.

Why are there black tentacles so deep inside?

What is that big lump altar?

It wasn’t even a proper altar, it was a broken foundation.

“They’re not moving at all.”

“I guess the research was successful.”

“Then is Chairman Shim in control?”

“Maybe so.”

Seeing her being so quiet, it was highly likely that Chairman Sim Eun-young was controlling the tentacles, as expected, but it was something that could happen.

“Don’t provoke me and bring me all the guys with flamethrowers.”

“Huh? It seems like the Chairman is in control···.”

The security team leader looked at the employee with an expression that said, ‘This pathetic little thing.’

“In the Iraq War, there were about 460 American casualties, and close to 150 of them were killed by friendly fire. One third of them were killed by friendly fire. This happened in a combat situation with cutting-edge equipment, but what you are dealing with now is the tentacles. If you make one wrong move, we will be the ones who will die. Just do as you say.”

“···All right.”

If you don’t want to end up being the main character in a story where the test subjects go berserk and die, it would have been better to prepare in advance.

Since the structure required passing through a broken mass to get inside, to get inside, one had to deal with tentacles that were round and hardened like donuts. The security team leader looked around and smacked his lips.

‘This is tricky.’

Isn’t that what happens in movies and novels? You think something is frozen solid and try to pass by it, but you end up screwed.

“Hey. That piece of debris is weird.”

“······.”

In the midst of the chaos, a large piece of debris began to glow. As a halo of light shimmered like an aurora, the black tentacles that had been frozen began to rotate in a tail-to-tail pattern.

“What about the flamethrower?”

“Coming!”

Ssrrrrrrrr- slurrrrrr-

In the midst of the rotating movement, the black tentacles began to melt like soup, and then began to clump together as if they were being dragged by a giant piece of debris.

The mucus stuck to the large fragments gradually became thicker and began to clump together into grayish-white eggs.

“The tentacles···.”

“It looks like it’s all melting.”

“······.”

“······.”

The tentacles that had been spinning in circles all melted and clung to the gray matter and flowed down, creating a bizarre structure that looked like an egg placed directly on top of a sunny-side-up egg.

“Do you know that?”

“······.”

The security team leader was conflicted. Should he leave right away? Or should he go across to the other side of the egg and see if there was a jackpot?

“The tentacles have all melted. Move to the side and check inside.”

Now was the chance.

‘I don’t know if that’s an egg or not, but even if it is, it won’t hatch right away or anything···.’

The security team leader went inside, leaving the staff with flamethrowers on standby. How far did he go down the narrow corridor-like path?

A soft yellow light glowing from inside slowly began to fill the security team leader’s pupils.

“As expected! It was there.”

On one side, there were piles of various metal ingots, including 2kg gold bars, platinum bars, and silver bars.

“Team Leader, this place is like a prison.”

“prison?”

The security team leader checked and it was indeed a prison. The problem was that the people locked inside were not people, but cannibals.

‘Were you conducting a vivisection on a cannibal?’

No. If the purpose was to conduct a biological experiment, they would have locked him up in a laboratory, not a prison. Then why were they locked him up in a prison for no reason?

Kkwwwww–

In the CCTV footage inside the prison, a cannibal was seen scratching at the wall with his hair falling out. His fingernails had fallen off while scratching the wall, and the cannibal’s characteristic sticky blood was painted in the shape of his fingers.

Buck-buck-buuuuuk-

Ohh …

A sagging sound like a broken record. The sound of scraping against the wall was repeated over and over again.

“Tsk, you’ve been starving for too long.”

“yes?”

“If cannibals don’t eat meat for a long time, their intelligence deteriorates and their cells break down. Like that one right now.”

“Why did you lock him up?”

Creepy-

The security team leader shook his head at the coldness that seemed to awaken a foreign sense.

‘What is this?

It just felt ominous. It felt dark and scary.

‘Is this perhaps an awakening?’

They say there’s a high chance of awakening right before you die, so if you awaken now…

‘Fuck.’

The security team leader felt his hair stand on end.

He grabbed the hand of the employee next to him and hid behind the gold bars.

“Team leader?”

“fizzle-”

After a while, the sound of wet footsteps was heard.

The sound of footsteps is light, fleeting, and above all, full of moisture.

Took- Took-

The one approaching from the other end of the long, dark hallway was a completely naked woman. Her naked body, dripping with moist liquid, seemed to be shining for some reason.

“Huh! Huh···”

The security team leader covered the employee’s mouth, but the employee’s gasp escaped faster. For some reason, the damp footsteps heading towards the prison stopped.

“Ee-chew-”

Even though he was crouching, Chairman Shim’s empty eyes were staring straight at the gold bars they were hiding.

‘Damn.’

Not good. Not good. Not good.

The security team leader was going crazy from the alarms ringing in his head.

I feel like I’ve become a herbivore.

It was fundamentally different from the feeling I had from the swordsman.

If you call a knife-wielding man a god, then that naked woman right now… was just giving me goosebumps all over my neck.

While the security team leader was momentarily tense, an employee went out of the gold bar. The employee took off his outer garment and handed it to Chairman Shim, who was naked, without being able to look at him directly.

“Mr. Chairman, here are your clothes.”

“······.”

It took the staff’s clothes, put them on naturally, and walked towards the security team leader. The security team leader, facing the thing’s empty eyes, checked the magazine with trembling hands.

What the fuck.

Fuck. Fuck. What the f*ck-

My heart was beating so hard it felt like it was going to burst out of my mouth.

Every sense in my body was screaming at me to run away.

where?

‘Where should I go…?’

The image that suddenly came to mind was, ironically, that of the knife-wielding man who had entered the bunker a moment ago.

‘That might be the way to escape from that monster.’

If it was the same, it was better than the one right in front of me. Thinking about that, I felt my heart beat a little weaker.

A glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of the security team leader who had been in despair.

Slurp-

That brief moment.

That brief moment of checking the magazine and dreaming of a small hope of joining Maru.

A wet sound was heard near the security team leader.

!!!

As my heart cries.

In the direction that your newly acquired abilities appeal.

The security team leader raised his gun.

Tadadadadak!

Holes all over the white, moist skin.

Euaaaahhhhhhhhhh!

With a desperate scream

Ting- titi ding!- ting-

The sound of brass shells hitting the floor suddenly stopped.

All that is left is the repeated, pitiful sound of the trigger reloading an empty magazine.

Clank. Clank.

The security team leader was speechless at the sight of the earthworm-like tentacles filling the space with holes in real time.

“seed—.”

Clang-

The tentacles that had been filling the hole covered the security team leader like a spider web.

He was slowly dragged away in the same posture as he was changing the magazine with trembling hands, and he shouted at the employee who was standing there with a blank look on his face.

“Shoot me, you idiot!”

“Come. Chairman···.”

While the staff was ‘wow’, the security team leader was slowly dragged in.

“Hey- shoot- shoot.”

He looked at the monster with the face of Chairman Sim Eun-young. There was no emotion in its empty eyes.

“What the fuck···.”

The security team leader flinched as the tangled tentacles drew her within arm’s reach.

“Save me! Please.”

“Stop it. Don’t do that.”

Despite his struggles, she spread her arms and hugged the security team leader’s face as if she were a loving mother. Then she guided his face with her plump chest.

Kkeup- kkeup-

Her chest, which should have been soft, was crushed like clay and swallowed up the security team leader’s face.

!!!

As the staff aimed their guns at the bizarre sight of the team leader’s head disappearing into Chairman Shim’s bare chest, the arm that had been holding the security team leader’s head swung like a whip.

Bba-gak-

The employee’s head caved in and he fell down with a thud.

As the limbs of the employee who had been trembling stiffened, the body of the security team leader buried in her chest slowly melted into hers.

She melted down the team leader and ate him whole, then dragged the crushed body of an employee to prison.

Beep beep beep-

[Please place your palm over the sign for identification.]

beep-

[Hello, President Sim Eun-young. A high-risk cannibal has been captured in this quarantine facility. Would you like to open the door?]

Beep-

[The door opens. For your safety, the electric shock device and automatic turret are activated.]

Wheeing- An automatic turret from the ceiling targeted the cannibal clawing at the wall. Then, a device that looked like an electric shock baton rose from the floor.

The thing with Sim Eun-young’s face threw the corpse of the employee it had dragged in in front of the cannibal. The cannibal’s head, which had been scratching the wall in ignorance, suddenly turned around.

“Eat.”

Krrrrrrrr- Krrrr-

The cannibal, whose body was collapsing, buried its head in the abdomen of a fresh corpse. The cannibal, whose body was slowly recovering along with the sound of chewing and sucking blood,

The light of reason returned to the pupils that had lost their intelligence. The hair that had been falling out here and there began to fill in and become shiny.

The cannibal, who had eaten more than half of the torso of an adult weighing over 70 kg, bared his teeth at her.

“What are you thinking? Do you think you can just let me, a special envoy of the Confederacy, pass by and lock me up like this?”

“······.”

The cannibal tried to shout something at Sim Eun-young, who was just staring at him without answering, but then closed his mouth.

A cannibal. A self-proclaimed new human. He was warned by his physical abilities and senses that were far superior to those of ordinary people. He almost starved to death, but when his fever cooled down, he saw something.

The prey that bitch threw was wearing a security team uniform. In other words, she gave the guards of this facility as prey. That was a problem, but the bitch herself was the problem.

He was wearing only a security team coat. He was barefoot and his pants were missing. It was barely covered, but his pants were definitely missing.

After satisfying his appetite, the next thing that comes to mind is sexual desire. The cannibal swallowed his saliva and glared at the woman with Sim Eun-young’s face before quickly closing his eyes.

It was clear that he should have been a predator, but his instincts were rejecting him. It was the first time he had felt this way since becoming a new human.

“Contact me to get an offer.”

“What···. What?”

It’s been months since you proposed and now?

“Long-distance telepathy is possible? I’ll take your offer. Ask for the land.”

I started telepathy because I felt strangely pressed. Long-distance telepathy was not yet a properly realized technology.

(This is John Denver. The Charlotte chairman who controls San Francisco has accepted the offer.)

(Why are you so late? You were reported missing.)

(This is a long story. I’ll come back and report back with more details.)

(I see. Then I understand that Charlotte’s group is joining the Confederacy. Thank you for your hard work. I guarantee you a promotion when you return. I hope you continue to work hard and become a noble.)

(Thank you. I will work harder.)

At the same time that the long-distance telepathy was cut off, blood burst out of my nose. It felt like my brain was shrinking. John Denver wiped the blood that flowed out of my nose with his tattered sleeve and continued to eat the corpse.

He, who had somewhat relieved the backlash from telepathy, spoke to Sim Eun-young, who was quietly waiting for the results.

“Well, I have conveyed that I have accepted your offer. Congratulations on being on the same ship as our Confederates.”

“Congratulations on being on the same boat as us.”

Her empty eyes turned to him and said:

“yes?”

Phew!

Her arms transformed into tentacles that pierced his chest and pulled him in. The cannibal’s regenerative and athletic abilities were no longer effective after her heart burst.

“Ugh, ugh. This. Even like this···.”

The cannibal’s body, which had been slowly eating away at her heart, disappeared in an instant. Her footsteps as she left the prison began to become heavier and heavier.

Her slender ankles gradually grew thicker, and her bare feet changed into the shape of combat boots. The figure of a young lady walking in men’s combat boots became distorted and warped, and in an instant, she transformed into the figure of a shabby man.

“Huh? Were you inside, Team Leader?”

“It was like an egg. It broke and something inside came out.”

“All the guys with flamethrowers are dead.”

“I haven’t been able to contact the chairman or his secretarial team either.”

The security team leader shouted at the chattering employees.

“Everyone shut up. I spoke to Chairman Sim Eun-young.”

“yes?”

“Where is the chairman···.”

“I told you to shut up, didn’t I?”

“······.”

“We decided to join the Confederacy. The Chairman told us to just bring the precious metals and research materials.”

“What do you think the US military will do?”

“The US military decided to have me go and join them in person.”

“Security teams 1 and 2, go inside the secret passage. Get the gold bars from the room at the far end first. Team 3, secure the research materials. I’ll go and negotiate with the US military.”

Maru’s expression as he looked at the blazing flames was not good.

[Why are you so impressed? Even though you just burned off your tentacles.]

[I still feel uneasy.]

Ki-sun sighed after seeing Maru’s unpleasant expression.

[Why are you so uneasy when you handled it so well?]

[I couldn’t confirm whether Chairman Sim Eun-young was completely finished.]

Ha- Right. Really, really.

Ki-sun continued talking as if she was dumbfounded.

[Creating a sea of ​​fire with napalm?]

“······.”

[Look behind you, you created a sea of ​​fire. If you were in there, you would have burned. So what’s the problem? Why is Chairman Sim Eun-young dead?]

[This may sound a bit strange, but it seems that Chairman Shim is still alive.]

What is this?

[Why do you think so?]

[My heart starts pounding whenever I think about Chairman Shim.]

[what?]

[No. No, not that kind of nervous excitement. You know, that kind of nervous excitement. That kind of excitement.]

What is this?
