Chapter 5 – #6 Shocking Debut (1)
#6 Shocking debut (1)
We don’t know who our player is in heat, but in fact, many people who have hidden their identities have infiltrated the current Sanctuary laboratory.
Right now, Stephanie Yu, the mother of a man in heat, is the vice-president of Sanctuary, but her true identity is [Hazel Foxy], A treasure stealer.
Despite stealing the treasures of so many rich people, the reason Stephanie was able to avoid getting caught was with the help of the straws she had plugged into the Hero Association, but most importantly, she was wearing state-of-the-art suits and equipment developed by Sanctuary.
In the first place, the Sanctuary company itself was just a tool to help Bal Ji-woon and Stephanie steal.
‘I can easily steal the treasure with that!’
Stephanie looked at her chimera with her young eyes in her anticipation.
*****
‘It’s a chameleon gene… It would be hard to find if it doesn’t have infrared rays or body temperature sensing.’
Han Ji-min, who saw the results of Dr. Crumola, bit her lip.
‘If that gets into the hands of the villains…’
It is not only assimilated with the surroundings and colors. It was difficult to see animals that had been injected with chameleon genes, unless you were wearing the special lens glasses you now wear.
The impossibility of confirmation with the naked eye meant that the animals had high stealth abilities.
Moreover, Dr. Crumola openly said that he would create a world where non-psychic people could use psychic powers.
That means that Dr. Crumola has the technology to safely inject animal genes into humans, or is in the development stage.
If this technology gets into the hands of the villains, then big things will happen.
‘I have to report it first.’
Externally, Han Ji-min attended this event as a shareholder of Sanctuary, but her real identity was a hero belonging to the Hero Association.
A hero with strong psychic powers equivalent to an A-class, if only in terms of class.
Heroes belonging to the Hero Association are divided into two types: heroes who hide their identities and heroes who reveal their identities. Many heroes hide their identities due to the fear of family members being hurt by villains, and Han Ji-min was one of those heroes.
She has strong psychic powers anyway, and few people know that she is her A-class hero [Ice Queen], So she was good to work like a secret agent like this.
Carefully observing her surroundings, she started texting someone.
“…”
Han Ji-min looked at her chimera with concern.
*****
‘It’s an assimilation ability… It’s not bad. No, I rather like it.’
Some people were concerned that Dr. Crumola’s research would be misused, while others were not.
Legacy Bourne, a cold-faced man, looked at Dr. Krumola and the animals named Chimera like a hawk on prey.
It was a pretty useful ability. No, it was not enough to say that it was useful.
You have to use special equipment like the sunglasses you are wearing now to see through the fairy tale. That meant that if this special equipment was somehow removed, no one would be able to detect the assimilation ability.
Moreover, what Bourne liked was that this ability was the beginning of his research.
In the future, we will study the genes of more animals and put them to practical use. The word infinity popped into Bourne’s mind, and he smiled coldly.
‘That’s mine.’
Bourne hatched a plan to kidnap Dr. Crumola.
There are always a lot of interesting things coming out of Sanctuary, but I came here because I was wondering if something interesting would come out today, and I got an unexpected big deal. Bonn, like Han Ji-min, was also a shareholder in Sanctuary.
‘I have no choice but to come this way anyway.’
Bourne was confident that Dr. Crumola would come out cooperatively with him. The reason I can be so sure is that the results the doctor put out were animals.
Dr. Crumola has yet to conduct human experiments. So, it must have been bringing only animals.
If the human experiment was successful, it should have been a human, not an animal. That’s because the effect is straight-forward.
‘Perhaps he prevented human experimentation with a sense of ethics.’
If so, Dr. Crumola will be more cooperative with himself. He believed in the inquisitive madness of a scientist mad at research.
‘That’s mine.’
Legacy Bone looked at his chimera with greedy eyes.
*****
‘Gibberish!’
At the words of the doctor, the dark-skinned man who was watching him, Wikaido Binden, distorted his face.
Superpower is the power of God that can only be used by humans who choose to be loved by God. You’re saying that even flawed humans who weren’t chosen could use that kind of authority?
Dr. Crumola, who dreams of a world where everyone uses supernatural powers, was the embodiment of blasphemy against God.
‘Unforgivable!’
As the firstborn son chosen by the gods, he could not forgive the devil who blasphemed God.
Vinden looked around.
All the people gathered here were shareholders of Sanctuary, a conglomerate, and this meant that they were rich.
In capitalist society, money is power.
What if all of Sanctuary’s stockholders, including the damn demon Dr. Krumola, die right here?
You will be able to push the Dark City into the abyss of chaos.
After a while, when he sends a signal, his comrades who have infiltrated Sanctuary Company with him move. If we move together according to the strategy at that time, we will be able to kill everyone here.
‘No one will be able to survive this place!’
Vinden looked at Dr. Crumola and the shareholders with angry eyes.

“Huh? What is that person?”
“Tights?”
“What? A hero? Do you know who that is?”
“No, it’s the first time I’ve seen a hero? Are you a hero?”
“…”
‘It feels like a monkey in a zoo.’
I could hear the people who found me humming as I walked around openly in a black jacket. Truly eye-catching, there was no one not looking at me.
‘Oh, that’s annoying.’
Originally, I am an introvert, so it was quite a struggle for people to focus on me.
Even when I had to give a presentation or report in front of people, I felt sick to my stomach when people looked at me.
But I had to endure this stare. Because in the future, I have to experience many of these people’s eyes.
‘It’s nice to have superpowers.’
Normally, I would have rushed to the bathroom right away, but not now. Maybe it’s because it’s a body with superpowers.
“Excuse me for a moment.”
“…”
Then, two men blocked my way. They were guards in charge of Sanctuary’s security.
The guards were very tense.
Beads of sweat on my forehead, rough breathing, the hand holding the baton.
It was understandable that they were nervous. There is no one who doesn’t get nervous seeing a giant armed with black leather jackets from head to toe. If it were me, I would have pretended not to see and ran away.
“Excuse me, could you please take off your mask?”
“…”
Said the guard in a trembling voice. He tried to hide that he was nervous, but the psychic’s senses did not miss the tremble.
“Teacher?”
“…”
As I looked down at the guards without answering, more and more beads of sweat dripped down their foreheads.
It will be scary. However, it was the guard’s job to overcome that fear.
‘They’re amazing.’
Inwardly, I paid my respects to their hard work spirit. I’ve said it before, but if it were me, I’d run away right away.
“If you do not answer, I will subdue you with force.”
The guards eventually pulled out their riot batons. My lips hidden under the mask drew an arc.
To pay respect is to pay respect, and I must do my part.
As the main character of the story I wrote.
“Ouch!”
“Jack! Holy shit! Can’t let go of that hand?!”
He reached out and grabbed the guard on the left by the collar. I moved slowly, but a guard named Jack couldn’t escape my hand.
It was natural. In the first place, it is impossible for a non-psychic to catch up with the movements of a psychic. Not to mention, I had the supernatural ability of a body enhancer.
As for the characteristics of each level, I went all-in on the defense type, but that didn’t mean my body was weak. Even now, I can run faster than a cheetah and have more strength than an elephant.
“Kuk! Kuk heck…!”
“Hot! Ha! Heh!”
Jack, who had been grabbed by the collar, floundered in midair as if out of breath, while the other guard next to him was beating me hard with a baton.
‘It tickles me.’
I’m really sorry for him, but it didn’t hurt at all. It felt like a baby being tapped with cotton.
[HP : 400]
[HP : 399]
[HP : 398]
[HP : 397]
.
.
.
‘Oh Hong?’
Thanks to the guard, I learned one thing. Just HP.
To be honest, I wondered why there was such HP in an RPG game in a world dominated by psychic powers, but it was for this purpose.
So, for body enhancers, HP was like a kind of protective shield. When HP is gone, damage is directly applied to my body from then on.
“Big…”
Jack finally passed out without letting go of my hand. If I continued to hold on to him like this, I would suffocate, so I put him down.
“…”
“Uh…”
And when I looked at the guard, the guard who had been beating me hard got scared and backed away. He must have thought I was going to hurt him.
But I didn’t mean to.
He looked up at the guard and pointed at the stunned security guard Jack. It meant taking care of him.
“…”
“… Huh? Jack?”
Nodding my head, I passed the guard and headed for the lab. The guard stared back and forth at me, who was moving away, and Jack, who passed out, at a loss for what to do.
Are you paying too much for that?
“Stop! Go back now! Or we’ll open fire!”
“…”
I heard the radio and the newly reinforced guards blocked my way. They were all pointing guns at me.
To be honest, I was a little scared when I saw the gun pointed at me.
‘Hmm… I’m sure he won’t get shot and die, right? No matter what, he’s a level 10 body enhancer.’
But just in case, I prepared my only active skill, [Steel Skin], At any time, and walked towards them step by step.
“Damn it! Shoot!”
Tutu tu tu tuk-!
A barrage of bullets rained down on me.
*****
“Vice President. It’s a big deal.”
“Yeah? What’s up?”
“Currently, a villain has appeared inside the company.”
“… Villain?”
At the word villain, Stephanie’s eyes widened.
State-of-the-art facilities and machines, and armed guards who can kill enemies brilliantly even if they are immediately put into battle, are guarding Sanctuary Corporation.
Even when other companies were terrorized by superpowered terrorists, Sanctuary Company prevented all terrorism in advance. The Sanctuary company was even nicknamed Cheol Ong Fortress.
It would be embarrassing to hear that a villain appeared in a place with such excellent security…
“… I mean? Where is the villain now? Is he alone?”
Stephanie calmly asked the security guard who had come to tell the news about the villain. He was surprised but not embarrassed.
It was so calm that the guard was embarrassed.
“He is now in front of the lab and alone.”
“Is it so?”
Stephanie’s eyes moved as she nodded at the guard’s words. What she was looking at was the CCTV that illuminated the inside of the laboratory.
Geeing-
At that moment, CCTV nodded. The person watching the CCTV signaled Stephanie.
“You go inside and tell Dr. Krumola about this. I’ll take care of the people here.”
“All right.”
As the guards approached Dr. Crumola, Stephanie stood in front of the crowd.
“Everyone. I’m sorry, but today’s experiment ends here. From now on, everyone will follow me outside.”
“What’s going on, Vice President?”
Shareholders who had not yet heard the news that the villain had appeared outside looked puzzled. But now, I haven’t had time to explain each one individually.
“I’ll tell you about that later…”
Bang-!
“Quaaaaah!”
“Wh-what?! A bomb?!”
The lab door exploded, and a man from outside slowly walked into the lab. He was a man who was fully armed with a black jacket. He could see the fallen Sanctuary guards behind him.
“… Nonsense. Already pierced?”
“…”
Stephanie was astonished that it had been pierced so quickly.
