Chapter 199 – 198.2 Battlefields
Until the next evening, I slept soundly at Ashford Academy. Fortunately, no one from the student council entered the basement. Certainly, it didn’t seem to be a place where people would just come in at any time other than holding an event. It looked good to get out before Roro came in. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust Roro, but if I was inside with the student council members, I might get caught if Roro couldn’t act.
Before Roro came, he finished all preparations and left the academy. In a big bag, I brought all the equipment Naomi had made for me. She seemed to be moving without Nightmare for the first time in a while. Today, too, I had to stay awake all morning. Will be very busy
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
“Uhhhhh…”
The Government General was in a state of uproar. Everyone, including the soldiers living inside, could not move in the room where they lived. The beginning was simple. But it was miserable.
I was on my way to the restaurant with a colleague for breakfast. Hungry, he passed by himself and ting at the feet of his colleague who was walking ahead down the aisle! I heard a voice saying It was where the curves turned. A sudden explosion engulfed a comrade who was walking ahead. A trap had been set up in the hallway he walked every day.
Blood was spattered all over him. The road to the restaurant while laughing happily had become a road to hell. The accident did not happen in one place. All of the CCTVs were broken before I knew it, and booby traps were installed throughout the Government General Building. The knights and pilots in the Government General started dismantling it quickly, but the number of dead was greater than the number of disbanding. In an instant, the entire government-general had become hostages.
After that, one by one, they started dying without a sound. People couldn’t get together even if they wanted to. No one knew when or where the booby traps would explode. All members of the Government General were locked in their rooms and could not come out. The soldiers who were lucky enough to come out were stomping their feet outside the Government General’s Office. I have to report, but in order to report, I have to go inside the Government General’s office. It was an incident that occurred when all Rounds, including the governor, emptied the government office to catch the Black Knights.
The next day the situation got worse. There were so many booby traps that I could see them. Try dismantling it if you can. It was a feeling. As the amount increased, there were cases where touching the trap to dismantle it caused the other booby trap to trigger. Even the knights had become unable to rush out.
Apparently someone had set up booby traps, but no one had seen him.
Like the phantom of the opera.
Bang! Bang! Explosions continued to be heard. Checking through the windows, the hangars, communications facilities, and even food storage facilities were all smoke-free. The soldier got goosebumps. I don’t know who it was, but the problem was that the inside of the Government General Office was too wide. The fact that no one can detect such wide-ranging enemies can be attributed to the deformed construction form of the Government General Office, where people are blocked with booby traps and when all buildings are combined, a thousand rooms easily pass over.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
“Oh, I slept well.”
I stretched in the office of the Governor-General of the Government-General. This chair. I wanted to sit down at least once, but this time I felt good because I was able to fulfill my wish in small ways. Two booby traps were also installed. One can be avoided by anyone, but it is creepy, and one explodes out of nowhere but does not affect life.
Right now, the Government General will be in a bad mood. This is because booby traps were randomly installed throughout the Government General Office. I couldn’t install everything in one day, but it didn’t matter. If you wrote down numbers 1, 2, and 4 on three pigs and released them, it was like going around looking for number 3, which doesn’t even exist.
I can’t move without knowing how many booby traps there are. I used up all the explosives and cremoir that I had already packed in my bag. After all, the Government General’s Office also has a hangar. From now on, you can just shake it off and use it. He had already lived in the Government General’s office for over three days. Anyway, the number of rooms was enormous, and so many people in the Government General’s Office were in a situation where they had to risk their lives just to come out. It didn’t matter that I knew where the booby traps were. Right now, I am the only person who can roam freely in the Government General Office. The cctv broke the visible foot. Anyway, the first thing I messed up was the cctv situation room, so there was no one to check even if it was filmed on cctv, but I still have to break it down as I see it so that later, when I move or get tracked, I won’t know when I fell out of here.
I went around for a while and set up traps. Occasionally, I encountered people. Booby traps are dangerous, but at this rate there’s nothing left to do but starve to death, so let’s get out.
Like now.
“Enemies!”
“Kuh… It’s a big deal! That’s it!”
They were the ones who knew who I was. The three of them were walking cautiously, but they seemed to be wary of unnoticed traps. In fact, booby traps are not of such obtrusive quality. The quality is so low, if you’re careful, you can find and dismantle them all. The only thing I put a lot of effort into installing was the Governor-General’s Office. Since I couldn’t kill Schneizel right now, it was good to see it as a greeting, but if I was really hurt, Schneizel would want to kill me regardless of the benefits or disadvantages.
I stopped thinking for a moment and raised my handgun while looking at the three people who found me. No matter how superhuman you are, you are not faster than a bullet. Why should I move when I have a handgun that’s much easier than running and killing? But the movements had to be taken care of. If I was hit by a bullet, it was the same that I was fatally wounded.
So, I sat down and put a bullet in one, then jumped to the side and kicked the wall. Now, if it was a place with a low ceiling like a hallway, 3D maneuvering was possible. He stuck to the ceiling as if standing upside down and fired the pistol. Surprised by my movement, the opponent was pinned precisely between the eyebrows. After the sensory stats rose a lot, I was perfectly certain that the stats also affect skills. The skill of personal firearms proficiency used to be super advanced, but as the stats went up, much more sophisticated shooting was possible. Even though I was moving so violently, contrary to what I said to the crew, everyone aimed at the head and fired only one shot at a time. Because it’s obvious that everything will be stuck anyway.
3 people were killed by 3 bullets.
It’s all headshots. Now the days of feeling that operations are so difficult, or that combat is so difficult, have passed. To be honest, it was a bit steamy. Rather, in the case of a Nightmare, no matter how much the specs are raised, science and technology have limits, so even now I have the strongest Nightmare, but when surrounded by ace pilots, I felt stressed enough.
For now, it seemed that the time had come to investigate rather than clean up the fallen corpse. When people start moving around, no matter how much I am, it can be difficult to survive in a barrage of bullets.
Come back next time No matter how vigilant you stand, there are always ways to break through. Because people are standing.
I quickly got out of the Government General’s office. Because nothing had changed in the Government General Office compared to before, he was also aware of all the secret passages made for the Governor General. When I got out of there, the subway tracks on the outskirts of the concession came out.
The sun hadn’t set yet. It seemed like it would be a good idea to go back to Ashford academy after midnight, as it was almost certain that if I went around now, I would be discovered by people who knew who I was.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
“What is this…”
He gave up fighting the Black Knights and returned to the concession after cutting the soldier in the rear in order to confuse Lelouch. The battle in Hokkaido must have already fallen into a lull. Rounds and his opponent, the ace pilot, would continue local battles from time to time, but the soldiers except for them were instructed to fight passively. Schneizel is done with Lelouch, tired of the lull, aiming for the time he returns to Ashford Academy for an alibi and arrests him. Because Lelouch wouldn’t know that he had figured out Zero’s true identity. It is certain that there must be Roro Lanfelji dispatched as Lelouch’s guard at Ashford Academy, but seeing as there is still no information about Lelouch, it can be expected that Lelouch must have taken some kind of action.
Schneizel, who had returned to the Government-General’s Office, could see the people of the Government-General’s office stamping his feet as he couldn’t even get inside. When he found out what was going on, he was told that while he was away to battle Hokkaido, some madman had entered and set up booby traps inside the building of the Government General’s office.
In addition, when he heard the story that he even destroyed the main facilities in the Government General, he sighed involuntarily. Because I thought I knew who did it.
Kam Woo-jin.
Schneizel was rather relieved. Had he been in Hokkaido knowing he was missing, the rounds would have been in danger. No matter how vulgar he behaved, he was now the best pilot in the world both in name and reality.
In the end, by the time Schneizel was able to enter the Government General’s office, it was already dawn. Because the booby traps hadn’t all been dismantled by then. Schneizel was exhausted, but entered the building of the Government General’s office without showing any expression. Canon Maldini followed him. There were already places where bombs had exploded or smoke hadn’t subsided anywhere in the Government-General’s office, and there were also many places where the hallways were covered in blood and had holes in them. Probably, it will take quite some time to settle. Schneizel barely managed to stop a sigh from coming out.
So he arrived at the governor’s office. The moment Schneizel opened the door without any doubt, a dagger passed in front of him and hit the wall to his left! It sounded like it was being hammered. Schneizel was genuinely surprised. He was just tall enough to be stuck between his eyebrows if he had just entered. It seemed that Woojin made it for himself. A trap that can kill you in one shot if it sticks to your head.
“His Highness Schneizel! Are you okay!?”
Kanon Maldini, his aide, asked in amazement from behind. He thought his liver was falling. However, Schneizel smiled leisurely. He didn’t have to tell me that he was thinking that way.
Perhaps, there seemed to be no more booby traps. It took another 30 minutes to sit at the desk in the office. It wasn’t until he decided that there were really no booby traps in the office, that Schneisel took his seat in his office.
That was the patch
Cuckoo!
Inside the desk. An explosion resounded from where Schneizel’s legs were, and Schneizel felt so much pain that he couldn’t control his expression. He felt so sick that his hair was painted white.
“Quaaaaa!”
The relaxed Schneizel screamed. Writhing in his pain, Schneisel fell from his chair. Kanon Maldini, who finally grasped the situation, walked with a pale face to the other side of the office desk where Schneizel was hiding.
Kanon’s eyes widened as if they would tear.
It seemed that there was a trigger-type trap unlike anything I had ever seen, installed with a laser on the inside of the desk. One wall inside the desk was full of soot. It seemed that explosives had been planted there.
My guess is that it was a weak explosive, like an ankle mine.
Kanon gulped his saliva and immediately called the medical staff. Schneizel passed out due to intense pain and lost consciousness. I was breaking out in a cold sweat like a waterfall.
Kanon’s eyes closed with a miserable feeling.
Both Schneizel’s ankles were nowhere to be seen.
