< They (1) >
The elevator shaft was very deep.
The invisible darkness stretched all the way down as if it had opened its mouth.
Shii-i-iik-
And Sang-woo, his alter egos, and 4 trillion won are rapidly descending.
-1st group enters the 1st basement floor.
-2 teams will enter the second basement floor.
-Complete entry to the 3rd floor of the basement of 3 sets.
Each group decided to break through the floor, so Sang-woo’s group planned to enter the 4th basement floor.
– This is it.
Sang-woo shouted and jumped toward what appeared to be the 4th floor entrance.
bang!
When the capsule hatch was destroyed, what was revealed was a room with the same environment as the elevator room located on the first floor of the research center.
Chak-chak-chak-chak-chak!
Finn, Himura, and other alter egos followed.
– I’ll go right away.
Sang-woo left the elevator room as soon as he saw them getting off.
And when they opened the door, they faced many robots.
Dadadadadadadadadada- Piyung-
Piyuung-
Shiiying-
As soon as the door was opened, the robots rained down an enormous amount of firearms as if they were waiting.
Sang-woo and his clones jumped right in.
[Barrier]
The first thing I did was deploy a barrier made of mana facing the front.
Although there are diamonds, there is nothing wrong with being careful.
And the wind spirit of his sword swinging.
[Storm Slash]
[Storm Slash]
[Storm Slash]
…In the wide hallway where about 10 adults could stand, a whirlwind of sword energy was created and swept the entire front.
Kwagwagwagwagwagwang!
The robots lined up in a row in one room were all smashed in an instant.
-clear.
The moment Sang-woo looked back while saying a cool line with something he saw somewhere.
He was startled.
-Kuh…
Himura and Finn were bleeding all over the place.
Even at a glance, it seemed that the robots had been hit by a barrage of arrows.
-Are you okay?
Sang-woo asked and used the recovery skill.
It was quite dangerous to see blood gushing out with holes pierced all over the body.
[Recovery]
[Great Healing]
It’s enough to just cast Sang-woo, but when he joins in the recovery skill with his alter egos around him, Pin and Himura recover in the blink of an eye.
Tangleureung-
The fragments of broken bullets stuck in his body came out.
Fully recovered, they came to their senses.
– What is this… Thank you. Mr. Sang Woo.
-…thanks.
Pin and Himura thanked Sang-woo.
Sangwoo nodded as if it didn’t matter.
-What. Anyway, the robot attacks look pretty strong. I thought it wouldn’t pose any threat.
They were simple bullet attacks and laser attacks.
Even if the laser attack is a bit tricky, the bullets will hardly be effective for those who are known as S-class hunters.
However, looking at the details of what they were wearing, it seemed that almost all of them had been hit by a barrage of bullets.
-…I was careless. I thought bullet attacks wouldn’t work because I had an aura shield.
– I was the same. I also created a mana barrier and prepared for it, but it was pierced in an instant.
In summary, each of them created a barrier and shield with mana to prepare, but they were incapacitated by bullet attacks.
In other words, the bullet has the effect of scattering something such as mana and shield.
Sangwoo nodded seriously.
-Oh… This must be dangerous for the other groups too?
He immediately communicated this to others.
– Everyone be careful. It seems that the attacks used by the robots have a mana shield nullification effect. Avoid as much as possible.
Then, the entire communication line, which had been quiet for a while, started to become noisy.
-Team 1 has already been defeated here. A number of injured people are currently being treated and recovering.
Same with -2. currently undergoing treatment.
-7 trillion… 1 casualty occurred. The deceased is the American Clovis.
-…….
-Clovis is dead? Nonsense.
– Poetry.
-My God….
There have already been multiple victims.
Besides, in group 7, one hunter has already died.
Sang-woo couldn’t help but be surprised.
‘I thought it was just a tin robot, but it kills an S-class hunter? What is this…’
S-class hunters who are called superhumans among superhumans who have transcended human limits.
American Clovis was also an S-class Hunter.
His ability was to create totems, and the totems he installed continuously had various effects and effects on the surroundings.
He was a powerful supporter and dealer to his allies, freely installing healing totems that continuously heal nearby colleagues and totems for buff debuff attacks.
In particular, among the types of buffs applied to the entire body, there are also those in the form of a mana shield, so he was also a person who rose to stardom with a video in which he wiped the dungeon in an instant while applying buffs to his entire raid.
‘I heard that he also created his own guild and is doing very well in America, but is he really dead?’
When a famous person he knew died, Sang-woo felt unrealistic, as if the current situation was not real.
My heart is floating and I feel like I’m dreaming.
But now the situation was real.
Sang-woo made his judgment calmly.
A person’s face flashed in his mind.
– Mr. Bless! Where is Mr. Bless? Mr. Bless can save you!
Sang-woo came up with a solution when everyone couldn’t remember the existence of Bless.
-Mr. Bless is in the 1st group.
The person in charge of Team 1’s leader urgently responded to the communication.
Bless himself is not communicating.
Sang-woo could clearly see the situation.
‘It’s annoying again, so I’m going to follow you around and get treatment. Whew.’
Bless wouldn’t be very interested in what he was doing.
That’s why he’s probably not even listening to the communication properly.
Still, Sang-woo did not resent him.
-great. I think we can move Clovis to the first floor right now. Mr. Lucas?
-Yes, Mr. Sang-woo. All right. i’m moving
Sang-woo is in command.
Afterwards, Lucas, who moved quickly, moved Clovis from the 7th basement floor to the 1st floor and received treatment through Bless.
– Success. Mr. Clovis is alive.
-Ah… I’m glad.
-Thanks God.
Fortunately, thanks to not being late, Clovis succeeded in resurrecting (?) safely.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
and in between.
Shhhhh-
‘…Coming again.’
Sang-woo heard robots and drones flying in the distance.
Now in the middle of enemy territory.
It was a moment that couldn’t be careless at all.
He prepared right away.
– Mr. Finn Mr. Himura, please take care of the robots left behind.
No, I jumped in first.
‘Damn robots… I don’t know how many there are, but I’ll destroy them all.’
Sang-woo and his alter egos were shot forward with the barrier deployed, leaving Finn and Himura behind.
Pod!
Sang-woo and his alter ego rushed to him in an instant as if they were sliding across the hallway.
As the robots turned around the corner of the hallway, they saw robots filling the hallway and flying in.
As soon as the robots found Sang-woo and his alter ego, they began to emit flames from the weapons they were equipped with.
Fight against each other!!!
Piyung! Piyung! Piyung!
Seeing that, Sangwoo’s eyes lit up.
“Search!”
With a small cry, Sang-woo held out his left hand, which did not hold a sword.
The alter egos were also extending their left hands at the same time.
[Chain Lightning]
[Chain Lightning]
[Chain Lightning] [Chain
Lightning] [Chain Lightning
]
[Chain Lightning]
…Sang-woo didn’t care about the robots’ attacks and attacked them.
And the huge amount of lightning that spread with the alter egos wrapped all the robots, or the entire corridor.
Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa-gwa!
With the explosion, the hallway was quickly engulfed in flames.
The flames engulfed even Sang-woo and his alter egos along with acrid smoke.
but. The wind
that Sang-
woo caused by the storm core mana engine pushed it out.
Sang-woo and his alter egos are intact with only a little bit of soot on them.
During the attack, he was struck by bullets several times, but those that brushed them ricocheted off, and those that were hit properly were slightly injured, but immediately recovered with regenerative power.
The laser attack was a bit tricky, but it was all avoided by simply moving the body slightly by reading the trajectory of the muzzle.
‘It doesn’t matter who they are.’
The alter egos who have already mastered their combat abilities through tremendous sparring and training against Raven.
Even before they were equipped with combat training, they were alter egos that showed mechanical and perfect avoidance like robots with a little experience, so they did well with just the thought of ‘doing damage on their own’.
Therefore, robots like this were very easy prey for Sang-woo.
‘It’s not like there’s a tricky special attack machine, so I’ll just have to hit it well.’
That’s how the robots are cleaned and the silence that came back.
Sang-woo destroyed the surrounding rooms.
bang!
After breaking through the wall, an incredibly wide space appeared.
‘…factory?’
It looked like a factory.
Thousands and tens of thousands of bipedal robots and drones that attacked Sang-woo and his party were in production.
It was being produced in an automated plant process, completely full of machines.
And Finn and Himura arrived late.
-Sangwoo, this place is…
-You’re crazy…
Himura muttered blankly as if he was surprised by the scale.
Finn was also unable to speak and remained still.
Sang-woo was immersed in thought, not appreciating whether they came or not.
‘This wide? Then…’
It’s a size that can’t be chosen on the scale of only one floor.
Seeing the expanse of the ceiling, Sang-woo stood on the railing and looked up at the factory.
OK.
-Ah, Mr. Avatar!
I encountered 3 trillion people who seemed to have entered from the top.
On top of that, 1st and 2nd sets were also visible.
And so it was below.
-This is a robot production plant.
-It seems that everything is connected up to the 6th basement floor.
-Crazy… A factory like this in the middle of the desert.
-Hmm… Not just robots. Looks like they’re making weapons too.
A man shared the screen he was looking at through the smart goggles camera.
Looking at the place he pointed to, in addition to the robots and drones they were seeing, what appeared to be giant missiles were also being produced.
– Tron guys… Did you plan to wage a war against all of humanity?
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement with what someone muttered.
Because it was a huge amount.
Then someone asked Lucas.
-Mr. Lucas, shouldn’t the factory stop producing this?
It was a natural thought because dangerous weapons were constantly being made.
Lucas replied.
-great. Think of a way to stop production.
– No way to stop it. Why don’t you just break it all down?
Card magician Dan Villerian said in an annoyed tone as if he was frustrated.
-It’s not possible. This, too, is one of the proofs and a valuable power that can be used for humanity. Although Trevor Lone is abusing it, we should confiscate it and use it for good. For example, monster hunting and defense.
Lucas said firmly.
From his point of view, it was natural.
‘Originally, on the last day, Tronsa intervened and became a tremendous force. If their power is gone… the future becomes very uncertain.’
So destroying the factory was nonsense.
-And don’t forget our original mission. Our goal is to secure one recruit, Trevor Ron Jr. III. Tron’s financial resources should not be touched as much as possible.
-Hmm…
Dan couldn’t refute that comment and stepped back.
-All right. Then what should I do? You’re not asking us to find a way to stop the factory facilities in this vast area, are you?
-Please wait a moment. It is currently being analyzed by the government, the FBI and my company’s intelligence team.
Lucas was communicating the field of view he was looking at with the outside world using the built-in camera of the smart goggles.
So even now, a task force urgently set up outside was monitoring the inside of the laboratory in real time, and experts were gathering to find out how to cut off power to the factory facilities.
– I guess we’ll just have to wait a bit. And from the 7th floor that entered the 7th floor of the basement, please see what the situation is.
But time was not on their side.
Hee hee hee –
Lucas waits for a while to ventilate the surroundings.
Red lights emanated from all the robots and drones that were being produced inside the factory.
operation had begun.
– Move!
And the robots fixed their wide-angle lenses toward the hunters standing on the railings of each floor and began to take out the weapons attached to their bodies.
Weiying- Chiik-
Chajajajakchak-
Weapons that pop out as the gloves open.
-Prepare!
The reaction was very fast, probably because they were all S-class hunters.
But this time, we have to deal with so many robots that it is difficult to accurately determine the number.
‘Just a moment ago, we were only damaged by dozens of robots. But do you have to deal with robots that seem to number in the tens of thousands? This is nonsense.’
Sangwoo immediately talked to Lucas.
– Mr. Lucas, this is dangerous. step back
Lucas shouted as if agreeing with that statement.
-Let’s retreat to the hallway!
Through the hole in the wall through which they came in, they escaped back into the hallway.
It was the same with Sang-woo and his alter egos, as well as Pin and Himura.
‘In case you don’t know, let’s leave some clones for aggro.’
Sang-woo ordered the robots to be destroyed, leaving the three alter egos at the factory.
After that, you exit and face the hallway again.
“hmm…?”
And Sang-woo met an unexpected face there.
A naked body with something like transparent ooze all over it
.
Hairless, bald head and eyebrows.
Red skin that looks wrinkled and exfoliated.
And a blurry pupil.
However, on the contrary, a man with a face that could have been handsome because of his clear features.
The moment Sangwoo saw his face, he immediately knew who it was.
“…Junyoung Kang?”
It was Kang Joon-young.
However, Kang Joon-young, standing in front of Sang-woo, felt something strange.
no, it was very strange.
“…Why are there so many of you?”
Yes.
Kang Joon-young was not alone.
Right away, several ‘Junyoung Kang’s were standing, filling the hallway.
