Chapter 131 – Academy Apocalypse (41)
“… What?”
A commotion ensues.
Tadashi immediately radioed to the people watching on the rooftop.
Jijik.
“What’s the matter?”
-Ah, Inspector Miyamoto! They’re coming from all sides now!
“Coming? Could it be because of the helicopter?”
They respond to sound.
And the sound of the helicopter’s propeller was very loud.
It wasn’t strange even if they were led.
“How many?”
– There are too many to count! At least one thousand!!
“What?!”
-That, not only that!
Short term.
After that, a voice filled with astonishment came from the other side of the walkie-talkie.
-They are running!!
“…”
Tadashi, of course, and First Lieutenant Sakamoto also opened their mouths.
So far, they’ve just been walking slowly. But are you running?
“It seems to be out of the ordinary.”
First Lieutenant Sakamoto muttered.
Tadashi asked him with a serious expression.
“Can you help us fight them?”
“… That seems difficult.”
Sakamoto lowered his head.
The desire to help was like a chimney, but circumstances were not good.
With the weapons they brought, it would be impossible to defeat them all.
Besides, if it goes wrong, it’s not a loss. The Air Self-Defense Force was not alone in the rescue operation, but now that the number of pilots was limited, each one was rare.
Losing any of these would be a huge loss. The lives a single pilot could save and the number of people he could kill were infinite.
“Okay…”
After hearing Sakamoto’s explanation, Tadashi nodded with a heavy face.
You can’t force yourself to do something you can’t do.
“Then how likely is rescue?”
“… It can carry up to 100 people at a time.”
“What time?”
“It takes about 20 minutes to get to and from the base.”
“That means you’ll need at least an hour to save everyone here.”
It’s hopeless.
1 hour against that number?
Even the police armed with firearms seemed impossible.
But I can’t be in despair like this.
Because that’s what it means to risk one’s life.
“All right. Then I will ask people.”
“I will help you wherever I can.”
***
“Women, children, and seniors board in that order!”
Self-Defense Forces and police guided the citizens.
Women, children and the elderly made up just under half of the survivors.
In other words, more than half of the remaining population are male.
“Where is this!”
“Please give us a ride too!!”
Men protested.
They also valued their own lives the most.
An atmosphere that is getting more and more intense.
Eventually, when there were signs of violence, one of the SDF members pointed the muzzle of a rifle at them.
“This is a national disaster situation. We ask for your cooperation to safely rescue everyone. In case of non-compliance, we inform you that we may open fire.”
They became dumb who ate honey.
As I aimed the gun at him with a savage look, I had no choice but to curl my tail.
However, some of them went wilder, asking if they would shoot themselves.
“What?! Are you going to shoot us?”
“You dare to live on our taxes!”
“Move! I will ride!”
The self-defense fighter biting his lip tried to pull the trigger.
But just then, someone stepped out.
“Observe the order. These bastards.”
Baek!!
Men with sunken faces ran out.
In the place where they had just been standing, Seo-joon was holding out his fist.
“What, did you get this right?”
He rolled his eyes and saw Seo-jun, who had passed out, put on a puzzled expression.
Well, that’s pretty good Whether these craps pass out or not.
“Thank you.”
“No. Rather than that, you do what you used to do.”
The SDF member nodded and led the citizens again.
After looking at it for a while, Seo-joon went back to where his party was.
“How is the situation, Saya?”
“… Not good. Except for the third second, there are only red marks around here.”
Saya, who was observing the surroundings on the mini-map, responded to Seo-jun’s words.
Within a radius of 1 km, there were only red marks.
‘It has to be.’
There are more than three hundred people here alone.
The number of waves is over 3,000 for ordinary zombies.
Even if they were armed with guns, it would be very difficult.
To be honest, unless there are dozens of sharpshooters with 100 bullets to choose from, it will eventually break through. That’s also true, because there weren’t only ordinary guys in the wave.
“Jun, tell me what to do.”
Saeko looked at Seojun.
As if the other party agreed with that statement, they fixed their eyes on him.
After Seo-jun glanced at the crowd for a while, he opened his mouth.
***
“… Do you want me to come out?”
Tadashi hardened his expression.
“No way. Where are you going to go in this situation!”
“Dad! Please!”
Said Ray.
But I couldn’t change his mind.
What parent would allow their child to go to limb?
If you leave, you will surely die.
He was sure because he knew the current situation better than anyone else here.
“Did you guys instigate it?”
His gaze turns to Seo-jun and the other party.
Seojun shrugged his shoulders.
“It must be more correct that it was decided by majority vote rather than instigated.”
“Whoa, what’s the reason you’re going to be in this situation in the first place?”
“We will go out and stop them. Until everyone escapes.”
“Then I can’t even allow it. People will be protected by the police and the Self-Defense Forces, so wait for the rescue order in a safe place.”
“No, it is impossible with the police and the Self-Defense Forces.”
“… What?”
Seojun looked straight into Tadashi’s eyes.
“The variants will come.”
“A variant?”
Tadashi tilted his head.
Apparently he didn’t know about the mutation.
Seojun explained about the variant.
“… Did something like that happen?”
It seems that you are in shock.
However, he soon shook his head.
“I can’t believe it. Even if it were real, I would be no different from them in front of a gun.”
“No, guns are not omnipotent. It may be effective against people, but it will be difficult against ‘monsters’.”
“Huh, you’re talking as if you have tools other than guns.”
At those words, Seojun smiled brightly.
“Yes, there is.”
“Is there?”
“Right here.”
Roaring-
“?!”
A flame rose from the palm of his hand.
Seeing this, Tadashi was stunned.
Afterwards, Seo-jun and his party were allowed to go outside only after explaining about the awakening of their abilities.
***
Seo-jun put his hands in his pockets and looked at the figure running from afar.
They were all gnomes, but they seemed to number well in the hundreds.
“Are you guys nervous?”
“… Well, I’d be lying if I didn’t.”
Saeko smiled bitterly.
In addition to Seo-joon, there were others who could fight.
Komuro and Hirano remained there to protect their non-combatant comrades.
“But I am not afraid.”
Saying that, Ray opened and closed her fists.
It was because the power amplified by Asami’s ability was felt.
“That’s a good attitude.”
Smile
Seojun smiled and looked forward again.
“Okay then, let’s start soon.”
Seo-joon, who looked at the guys who had entered within tens of meters, took his hand out of his pocket.
He snapped his fingers
OK,
Pew-!!!
Huge flames erupted and engulfed them.
