Sleepman of a Ruined World 628

Chapter 628 – 628. Kraken 2

Men and women scattered in five directions.

They went to a place where there were signs of people and began killing civilians very skillfully and calmly.

I’m used to scenes of people killing people now, so I don’t feel much of it, but these things feel different.

Feels like a well-trained special force. And machine-like movements.

Go to a place where there is a presence, open the door, and throw a wind blade right at the humans you see.

After making sure there are no people, immediately go back to where there are people. Repeat the same actions.

Sometimes, when a person with a shield appears, he immediately uses his lightning fist to suppress it.

The men and women who were divided into five teams quickly erased all traces.

As I was looking at the presence through detection, the image of paper burning and dying came to mind.

I can’t believe you can erase people so quickly with only 20 people. It’s really amazing.

What’s even more surprising is that all 20 people use wind blades.

There is no scream or noise where they pass. There is only quiet massacre.

What are they doing?

I hope night comes quickly. I’m desperate to read your memories.

As I followed them around, I soon realized where this place was.

I found a sign. A signboard that says 52 kilometers to Rio de Janeiro.

Then… This is Brazil, right? Rio de Janeiro is Brazil, right?

I don’t know if it’s up or down, but anyway, it’s 52 kilometers away.

I wondered what the dying people looked like… As expected.

I floated quietly and thought for a moment.

These guys seem to be moving south along the coast.

So, you started from the United States and ended up here, right? So what about the countries in the middle? Are you saying you’ve already sorted everything out?

I don’t know. First, let’s not make hasty assumptions. You will find out anyway when you read the memory.

At six o’clock in the evening, the twenty men and women returned to the place where they had gathered earlier, and after reporting the number of people, everyone boarded the gate.

You’re going back, right? First, save this location and teleport to where the Kraken headquarters is located earlier. You can see the guys who just entered the gate coming out of the gate.

These guys set a routine and slaughter people for a set amount of time.

I am indeed. I wonder what their intentions are.

After the sun went down, it got quite cool, making it easier to watch.

I sit still and practice my skills while watching what they are doing.

A normal life with nothing too strange except for the massacre earlier.

I think it’s free time after dinner.

There are people who are skilled, there are people who exercise, and there are people who gather together to play card games.

At eleven o’clock, everyone naturally goes to their rooms.

These guys go in and get ready for bed on their own even though no one told them to.

Sometimes there were people lying in bed reading books or something, but there weren’t that many.

At twelve o’clock, the lights go off in most rooms.

I’m glad. Because I fell asleep early.

There are a few people who don’t sleep in a room full of monitors, but I don’t think you need to worry too much.

Just in case, I go to the direction where the room is. A place underground.

After confirming the presence through detection, I immediately used phase out. And dive into the ground.

My vision, which had become completely dark, soon brightened, and I arrived at the monitor room.

A man happily eats potato chips and looks half-heartedly at the monitor.

Monitors without much movement. There are quite a few screens. The road outside the headquarters, the outdoors inside the headquarters, inside the headquarters, underground…

It seems that there are surveillance cameras everywhere, except in private rooms.

But does this have any meaning? You won’t be able to catch the invisibility, right?

Anyway, it doesn’t matter as long as there are no cameras in your private room. I immediately went out of the room and headed towards the dorms of the guys whose locations I had checked earlier.

The accommodation arrived shortly.

Go into the room, check the sleeping guys, and cancel the phase out. Invalidation, sleep, memory reading. Repeat phase out.

When I first read one person’s memories, I was even more puzzled.

The second person felt absurd, and the third person felt even slightly bizarre.

I read the memories of a few more people, and this time I read the memories of those who seemed a little high.

The guy who led 20 men and women earlier.

After reading that damn memory… I found a guy named Chief in his memories and read his memories again.

I’m not very satisfied, but I think I’ve done everything I could.

I used teleportation to get out of the headquarters and looked inside the headquarters one more time to see if anyone had noticed.

It’s quiet. Well, who could be prepared for this?

If there is a person who is worried about ‘Wouldn’t someone secretly infiltrate the headquarters and quietly read the memories?’, It would be easier to suspect the person who is worried about paranoia than to strengthen security.

Besides, there is no way to stop this. How are we going to stop this?

Now that we have confirmed it to some extent, we return to the bunker. Then, I lie down on the bed and organize what I remember and read.

First… The most surprising thing is their skills.

The reason why it felt strange the first time, absurd the second time, and even bizarre the third time.

Their skills were all the same.

Most of them are Tier 11.

And the skills it has are Wind Blade, Flight, Invisibility, Detection, Lightning Fist, Shield, Reflection, Metalization, Growth, Unlock, Party.

When I read my memory, the order in which I learned the skills was the same.

So these guys are literally picking on people. Feels like training mass-produced soldiers?

But the skill settings are a bit questionable. Unlocked. I highly doubt learning this.

Of course, they need to unlock it in order to slaughter people.

If we lock the door and stage a sit-in protest from inside, there will be no answer. It is true that it is necessary for that.

You can use Phase Out, but then the party is broken. I understand that you took the picture because once the lock is unlocked, you won’t be able to go anywhere.

But the most uncomfortable thing is… The thing is, after they get to Tier 13, they are moved somewhere else.

So, the Kraken headquarters that I just saw is a place where they stay until they reach Tier 13.

And not even the chief at headquarters knows where they are going.

The chief’s role is simply to train the personnel assigned to them to acquire skills according to standards.

That’s it.

Tier 13. Something about this feels uncomfortable.

This is the section where hidden skills appear. Moreover, the skills they are learning are annoying.

Metalize, grow, unlock.

Restriction removal, the hidden skill of unlocking, is a skill that has a lot of influence here and there.

Melting, the hidden skill of metallization, is a skill that turns the body like water.

Aging, the hidden skill of growth, is a skill that turns back the target’s time.

What is it? Is there something that can be combined with these three?

If melting is freed from restrictions, you can breathe in water? So, should we build an underwater city?

But what is aging? I don’t understand aging. Is there some connection between melting and aging?

No matter how much I think about it, I can’t figure out anything in my head.

Ah. It’s frustrating. It’s frustrating.

In times like these, we need to borrow the power of collective intelligence. I have to go to the ark tomorrow.

Let’s borrow some brains from smart people.

I think we’ll have to keep an eye on the Kraken headquarters.

When they get to Tier 13, the Chief contacts the other side, and they pick up the people who got to Tier 13.

What I’m aiming for is to sneak in and go that way when they come to pick me up.

Then you can go there and get more information. Under. This is really annoying. Disgusting bastards.

It wasn’t that I didn’t prepare for memory reading.

Strict information control. Even those who are given the task don’t know what they are doing.

Also… If you want to decorate something, you have to do it like that. I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but he’s amazing.

You mean to think of people as consumables or materials?

It’s a little different from the crazy guys’ mindset, but it’s the same.

A bully who treats people with counter pressure and control.

A Yankee who treats people with freedom and a sense of duty.

But anyway, there is no difference in using people like tools.

If you think about it that way, the American way is not all that good. It’s no different from those who are being attacked just mentally winning.

Anyway… For now, there is nothing to do but watch.

Just waiting for them to reach Tier 13.

But the most curious question has not yet been answered.

Minjun Seo. Why did he try to scout that guy?

There is no growth or metallization in Seo Min-jun’s skills.

Invisibility, phase out, telekinesis, flight, detection, shield, damage reduction, reflection, storage, blink, teleportation, gate, regression, nullification, lightning fist.

And there is a hidden skill, poltergeist.

This guy has no unlocks and no skills to use other hidden skills, right? But why did he want to scout?

I don’t know why.

The funny thing is, Seo Min-jun doesn’t know why the Kraken guys want him.

Anyway, I don’t understand everyone. Aren’t you curious? I think everyone is crazy.

Anyway, practice your skills more before going to sleep. If you work hard today and do a little more tomorrow morning, you will be able to master this too.

After. Boring. Mastering this skill… When will I quit?

I’ll probably keep complaining like this until I learn all the skills listed, right?

The next day.

When I woke up, it was a little after 5 PM.

I calculated the time and found that it is now 3 am where the Kraken headquarters is.

There’s still quite a bit of time left. Then, should we go to the ark?

Since the last secret visit was unofficial, this will be my first time appearing on the Ark since everyone was gathered together.

You should pay attention. It gets annoying when you find out that I watched it secretly.

Teleported to the ark.

I should have saved Jangryong’s room, but I forgot, so I teleported to an empty lot and looked around as soon as I arrived.

Aki, who was talking to Yunseo, saw me, and she came towards me and Yunseo also followed.

“What’s going on?”

“For some reason, do you need a reason for me to come to my ark?”

“They don’t come often…”

Aki mumbles like that. I wonder what I don’t like so much.

“Captain.”

It’s been a while since we talked to Yunseo. I saw her last time when I picked up the Singapore coin with the lab, but I couldn’t talk to her.

“How are you?”

“Thanks.”

It looks like you have a lot to say, but I think Aki is a little concerned.

I guess I’ll have to interview everyone again sometime. Of course, one-on-one personal interviews are important.

“I’m glad you’re doing well. Ah, Yunseo. Can I ask you a favor?”

“Huh? Which one?”

“Director Jeong and Seung-gyu, can you call Min-hee? Ask her to come to my room.”

“Ah… That was the request. I understand.”

Then, Yunseo disappears right away. What? Is it teleportation?

“Fool.”

Aki says that to me and heads back to his seat.

What? He’s such a funny kid. I need to interview him too. I definitely have to do it.

The room that Jang Ryong used as his own room. And now this is my room.

When I went there, I saved the location right away. Anyway, I have to forget what I need to forget.

The room was exactly as it was when Jangryong was there. It feels like this place was probably left untouched on purpose.

I guess you asked what to do and tried to deal with it?

I leisurely looked around the room and started to tidy up until the three people arrived.

Leave the things that seem necessary or put them in storage, and throw away the things that seem unnecessary at the Wuhan gate.

For example, this toad decoration.

Anyway, I don’t understand the emotions of those idiots.

After pushing it straight into the Wuhan gate, I telekinetically remove the decorations that smell like crap from the wall and throw them away.

“Are you here?”

Director Jeong and Seung-gyu. Minhee. Seeing the three people coming in together makes me feel reassured.

I immediately stop organizing and sit down on the sofa with the three of us.

Seeing that the three people’s expressions are not bad, it seems like the Ark work is going well.

“How do you feel? Is it worth living?”

Director Jeong speaks with a trembling expression in response to my question.

“Oh, I’m dying. Why are there so many things to worry about?”

“It looks like everything is going well. I see that there is some room to be harsh.”

“Oh my. Should I have been sighing and dying?”

The atmosphere is pretty good. The three don’t seem to have any problems with each other.

That’s a good thing. When people mix, the most tiring thing is the people problem.

Really… There is nothing more difficult than dealing with people.

“First of all, before you ask about the ark, will you listen to my story first?”

At the same time, I briefly told them about the hidden skill and explained about melting and aging.

“Is there anything that reminds you of this?”

Three people lost in thought after listening to my story. It would be nice if I could come up with something.
