Collapsed City (3)

There were several reasons for the deployment of night operations.

Since the 2nd base camp collapsed, it is impossible to secure a resting place. However, if they retreated to the first base camp and resumed the plan, it was obvious that the plan would be disrupted.

It’s a problem from the supply of feed such as hay and sugar beets to feed the horses right away, and the increased operation radius will increase the travel time in rough terrain.

In addition, the results of the cadaver analysis also forced Lee Ji-seonda.

There were traces of people buried in the injured area.

It was unknown whether the monsters and infected humans attacked together, or whether the vagabonds attacked later, but the current situation was clearly divided.

Since there are long-range sniper-type monsters in a group of unidentified humans, it means that the subjugation itself must be postponed to a later date or finished within a short period of time.

If it’s the former, I’ll just clean up the environment outside the city center and retreat, if it’s the latter, I’ll cross 10 kilometers in the middle of the night and enter the inside of the barrier.

“HQ, this is P1. We will switch to night operations.”

[…] P1 confirms transition to night operations. Good luck.]

And hero Kim Young chose the latter.

There is no retreat without results.

Multiple, multiple.

Accordingly, the party simply eats a meal, and then moves forward to match the heat as the sun sets over the ridge.

In the midst of a battle priest making a fuss saying, ‘As expected, I was right’, I moved for about 3 hours across the gentle slope of the hill.

Around 9 o’clock in the evening, it reaches the front of the barrier that surrounds Gumi City, Gyeongsangbuk-do.

Suddenly, the raid members spit out saliva.

It was because the front gate, surrounded by triple iron armor, was wide open under a six-meter-high barrier.

“Who opened the door? Does anyone really live in a place like this?”

“If you are in 4th grade… But you said it’s not the spirit world.”

“I know yeah.”

However, I don’t have time to listen to worrying voices leisurely. After asking the parrot to scout the city center, he immediately looks for traces outside.

There is not a single cloud in the sky, and the bright moonlight opens the clock, and there is not a single scratch on the gates and walls.

Was it gnawed from the inside?

<The monsters are concentrated inside. The number of heads is around four hundred. It’s hiding and waiting, I think it’s a surprise attack.>

Personal assumptions are confirmed by information flying in from the air.

<Well, there are humans too. They must have made up for the lack of food with prisoners.>

“The number is.”

<It’s not long. About eighty nine?>

Regrettably, the inner scales tip towards pessimism.

There was no time to save hostages.

“… Distance and location to the final target.”

<Approximately 3 kilometers, near the river. It is completely flat to the destination. There is no damage to the road, so you can reach it quickly if you remove the obstacles.>

Then, suddenly, a call came from the front.

As he leaned forward to propel his horse forward, his eyes met the wizard holding the blue staff.

As if the reconnaissance had finished, the owl perched on his shoulder was eating a snack.

“How is the situation?”

“Operation enforcement was right. There are only about 20 of them in the city center. I was going to look at the outside, but I checked mainly on the planned entry point.”

To the question of the person in charge, Kim Young, the young man gives a simple answer.

That was stupid.

Even if it’s a 4th level monster, not a 3rd level monster, there’s no way there are only 20 of them.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man has deep wrinkles between his forehead.

“… I understand for now. If so, is that the same?”

“no.”

At the moment when the question was about to be continued with negative words, the wizard suddenly listened and argued with anger.

“What do you mean you know? Your parrot didn’t even come back. My work team is superior in both flight and visual abilities.”

“Magician Noh Jong-seok, we are still talking.”

“But… … .”

“After listening, we will talk again. Go on.”

Maybe it was because he was a wizard belonging to the upper raid group, but he kept his mouth shut, but he did not hide his uncomfortable feelings.

“Mr. Lee Yong-soo?”

“Yes.”

However, due to Kim Young’s urging, the observation does not last long.

What followed was fragmentary information.

He did not give any personal opinions about whether the operation was going well or what method would be best to subdue them.

Because he is a noble man who can figure out the situation with just a simple fact at the right time.

“The monster is lurking. The size is between 300 and 400 people. Venetus is on the riverside as shown in the satellite image, but has moved about 700 meters upstream. The distance is three kilometers to the east, and a group of lurking monsters… It is 2.4 km away. Lastly, the roads are in relatively good condition. There won’t be a lot of trouble on the move.”

“… … .”

The other person didn’t respond in any way, but his eyes showed a hint of seeing this.

yes.

They gave me just the amount I needed.

“The interval is 600 meters… … . Are you sure the middle area is empty?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have any related skills?”

“… … .”

When the inappropriate comments were not answered, the engineers of the POS 1st team soon came forward and filled in the audio.

Like the main raid, they didn’t talk nonsense.

“Can it be covered with [crisis detection]?”

“no. I don’t know if it’s a mission to subdue all 400 of them, but I have to go all the way for 3 kilometers. It is difficult to react in advance. Even more so while riding a horse.”

“Well, in the end, the key is how to break through the siege.”

“Looking at the distance between the group of monsters and the target, it seems like he prefers to act alone. As long as you pierce it like you said, you won’t have to worry about the second battle.”

“You don’t even know the detailed combination, right? What kind of monster is it?”

Then, all of a sudden, it turns its head towards me.

The person who spoke to me was a woman belonging to the POS team 1, who decorated the TV with the title of a victim of misfortune in a one-deal ship movie.

If I had been in my previous life, I would have died before reaching Venetus.

“Yes.”

“Then can you tell which side the siege is thin?”

“… … .”

But anyway, the bird that the sorceress who commands the owl blushes. As I nodded my head at the sharp question, a middle-aged man came forward and called the person in charge of B-7.

Notified the engineering team leader, Kim Sang-hoon, who was wearing an upgraded prosthetic arm. It revealed the meaning of changing the formation to fit the vacant seat.

“How much does scouting ability cost?”

“… It’s not to the extent that it interferes with the battle.”

“I like being quiet. Do you need anything else?”

In the meantime, I respond without hesitation to Bae Young-hwa’s benevolent question.

I needed a drone.

“… How many do you have?”

“The more the better.”

Well, this time the reaction was not satisfactory.

Gyeongbuk Gumi.

Inside the barrier, the scenery of the ruined city unfolds without adding or subtracting.

It’s been years since I haven’t received maintenance. Significant cracks were found on the walls of the buildings, and pipes burst, showing signs of fire in some buildings.

Not only that, the landscaping plants that used to fill the city center stretched out their vines and branches beyond their designated spots, and the roadsides were also full of moss and dark red slime, causing the viewer to sigh.

And is it because of seeing the city with a population of 160,000 turned into ruins? A group of people in their 30s crosses the city center without saying a word.

again and again.

It was so quiet that I could hear nothing but the sound of horses hooves tapping around me.

The head of the subjugation team, the hero Kim Young, does not know how to fall from the back of the boy’s head as if it were nailed to it.

‘Wouldn’t it be better to make a head-on breakthrough now?’

Since I’m not the type to like adventures, countless thoughts were wandering through my head.

After all, it could have moved based on a satellite map during the daytime.

‘no. If there had been a better option left, I would have done it right away.’

However, right now, the veteran hero calms himself down, saying that he has no choice but to believe in the ability of the popularly known parrot.

Fortunately, the boy who accepted the role of guide showed off his worth before long.

“… length-“

“I’m going back to the boulevard.”

In front of a four-lane road. When a bus that failed to comply with the evacuation order blocked the road, it suddenly turned its horse’s head and entered an alleyway.

They led the group well, as if they were penetrating the alleyways near the market, including dusty tents and collapsed plastic roofs.

Although aerial reconnaissance is said to be helpful, seeing him wandering in the dark without a moment’s hesitation makes me think that his boldness is not normal.

It was a game type rather than training type.

If I had to point out a downside, it would be that I had eight drones for filming by my side, and since there were not just one or two people who were obsessed with fame, I wouldn’t have to look at it badly.

“A monster?”

“There’s nothing that’s affected by [crisis detection].”

“Mmm.”

In addition to this, the comments of friendly raid members also add trust. In fact, the monster didn’t even show his nose.

Of course, the peaceful walk didn’t last long, until the Civic Stadium came into view in the distance.

Lee Yong-soo predicted a full-scale conflict in a low voice.

“I will gradually speed up.”

“already? We have 1.5 kilometers left.”

“Because the siege is wide spread instead of shallow. From now on, we have to go as fast as possible.”

Therefore, the field manager transmits a hand signal instead of an answer.

‘Prepare for battle.’

After a while.

The firepower will be reduced as much as it is mounted, and in fact, the role of tanker and melee is also missing, so the boy riding the maroon mare speeds up and runs away.

Kim Young checked the distance that had widened in an instant and hurriedly followed behind, but unpleasant breaths flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Are you fearless, or are you just a jerk who wants to stand out? Either way, it’s too late to stop.

pop!

On the left side of the road lined with tall buildings on a two-lane road.

A 3-meter-tall monster emerges from the cracks of ownerless shops such as car batteries, underwear, tires, and convenience stores.

The one who pierced the outer wall of the one-story building was the charge-type armored monster Cornu (Level 8).

The level was low, but the armor was thick, so it was an opponent to avoid if possible.

“Go quickly.”

<… damn bastard.>

Therefore, the number of users… send the parrot flying

They have poor eyesight, so they rely on hearing and smell, but the season is winter and the time zone is clear night. He knew he would rely more on his sense of hearing than his sense of smell.

And soon, a vicious noise flowed through the beak.

“Queeek-!”

“… … .”

Although the vibration of the horse’s hoof is severe, if it is regarded as a nuisance, even the parrot will not be pushed, so Cornu is confused and unable to set a target.

In succession, projectiles poured through the three-story building on the right side of the road, in the direction of the industrial complex.

“Watch out on the right… … . Hey man!”

Aside from the twenty melee monsters, three Spinas and one Tortum. There were only four ranged monsters, so it seemed like they were in danger.

The boy controls the drone and pushes it into the attack path without hesitation.

It was already expected.
