Chapter 337 – Zombie Apocalypse 4 (11)
I sent Naeun a message, so he wouldn’t worry.
-I’ll go outside for a moment.
I was trying to put my smartphone in my pocket, but it immediately started vibrating.
-?
-Do I have to go out?
As I was looking at the two letters that came in succession, Naeun spoke in a slightly longer sentence.
-Don’t get hurt and come back right away if there’s a problem.
-Okay.
There aren’t that many people in this world who can hurt me, but they still worry about me.
I don’t know if I have to fight for such a long time that my mana will be depleted, but I can win at night.
I put on my military uniform, went outside the barracks, stepped on the wheel, and quickly moved towards the ammunition dump located on the high ground of the unit.
The ammunition depot was a small rectangular building and there was a guard post nearby.
We never used it, but the paper we saw in passing had people on guard duty at the ammunition depot, so it must have been used when the army was running well.
The problem now is the people sheltering from the rain near the ammunition depot.
Most of them were men, but the number seemed to be well over 50 people who had fought with the people in the supermarket earlier.
I think you’re planning on making a deal with us with bullets like you talked about with Seongtae Choi?
The barbed wire fence behind there is open, and I wonder when it will be restored.
“Shall we make a deal? I’m killing all those crazy bastards.”
“I don’t know, because I said I’d bring a car tomorrow and crash it into you.”
Men were gathered in small groups, talking and looking at smartphone screens.
It seems that some people watch broadcasts from other places and some people film here.
If packaged well, it could make us completely evil.
I looked around a little more and headed towards the ammunition depot, whose door was already open.
Since we brought tools to tear down the barbed wire, it would have been only a matter of time before the lock on the door to the ammunition dump was unlocked.
The ammunition depot was filled with square wooden boxes, and seeing as they were all stained white, it looked like there were bullets inside.
“Whew… What the hell will that Lord of Plague do?”
“I don’t know. Why is it raining today?”
“Where can I get a gun?”
“Isn’t there a grenade here? I could threaten you with that.”
There were not only guns but also grenades. After all, modern firearms are really dangerous?
Unless you are someone who can use mana, you can easily access weapons that are too efficient.
Isn’t it easy to access? I’m not sure because I haven’t finished it yet.
Among the men at the supermarket, if you ask them with their military records in hand, they will explain in great detail, but I stayed with Naeun.
‘People called Na-eun the queen.’
Do you actually think of me as a king? Seongtae Choi is the leader, and I am the king.
Even though I was the king of only 60 people, I decided to move because they told me that I was the king.
When I checked the time on other people’s smartphones, it was already past 11:50.
What method can be used to drive people out of the ammunition depot without ‘killing’ them?
If I let people know that I could use special powers, it would be over in an instant, but it was difficult to avoid the eyes of many people.
‘It’s a choice I won’t choose again.’
『Quest』
〈No murder for 48 hours.〉
-Time remaining: 9:17:22
– Upon completion: [Skill] Survival Rules (S) Strengthened
This is the same as sealing a way that would be very easy for a person with power to solve.
Perhaps I should move as soon at 12 o’clock strikes, when the Lord of Plague and the world will talk.
At that time, even if something strange happens, people will just accept it.
I decided to spend some time inside the ammunition dump.
*
11:59:57. 58 seconds. 59 seconds.
12 o’clock.
As soon as the time came, the box containing the bullets revealed its original color.
I immediately used Shadow Craft to create a wall of shadows with a soundproofing magic circle inside the ammunition depot to isolate the inside from the outside.
I connected the shadows that separated the inside and outside with shadow strings, so I could move freely, carved a sleep magic circle on the other side, and then rushed at the people inside.
“What?!”
“It’s getting dark!”
People who were hit by the sleep magic circle began to collapse.
The person who noticed that the darkness that had been with me inside the ammunition depot showed hostility, trembled and stretched out his spear at me, but it did not reach me.
There were nine people, including me, in this small space.
It felt a little unpleasant because it felt like mana was being consumed as if someone was tapping on the shadow that separated the inside and outside, but it wasn’t that much mana consumption, so it was worth the time.
A little later, I heard a voice in my head.
[The world delivers.]
[The seal on modern firearms has been lifted. I wish the survivors good luck.]
I heard the voice of the world that I heard 3 hours ago.
Are you really praying for good luck? Could it be that I gave up halfway? With that in mind, I waited for the more important voice of the Lord of Plague.
[The Lord of Plague unleashes the power he has borrowed from the one who connects space.]
[A group of zombies will appear in a location that meets the conditions.]
[One. Location where modern firearms are unlocked. 2. More than 100 survivors within a certain range.]
[A group of zombies is teleported to a location that satisfies the two conditions.]
[3.]
“What a bastard.”
[2.]
I immediately unraveled the wall made with Shadow Craft.
“Everyone goes outside!”
Few people will be able to react to the black wall that suddenly disappears and the voice of someone hearing it for the first time from inside.
[1.]
“Holy shit…”
I escaped from the ammunition dump where people were sleeping.
Haha.]
Zombies began to fall like rain from the air.
“Gwaaaaahh!!!”
“Kiyayayaaaaak!!!”
As hungry zombies fell from the sky, people near the ammunition depot were at a loss.
Jump over the barbed wire and run away into the forest? Or go to the barracks? While I was watching those choices being made, I focused my mana in my eyes and looked at the barracks.
‘It also falls on the barracks.’
The guns were also sealed, and it seemed like zombies were falling in the area, including the ammunition depot and barracks.
When I saw the people in the restaurant quickly moving to the barracks, I decided to use the surest method without killing anyone.
‘I don’t want to leave any sprouts behind.’
Yeomryunkwon (炎wheel hand) Muryun (無wheel).
I threw out a fist filled with heat and destroyed the entrance to the ammunition dump, then used Shadow Craft to create a large box.
I shouted to the survivors who were caught in the wall breaking down and came to their senses and started fighting the zombies.
“Survivors! Put bullets on the black cart I made! I’ll deal with the zombies!”
The cart was connected with a shadow string, and in the other hand, I made a weapon that could be used by other guys in the current situation.
Skill Link-Boost
Yeonyeom Shingong (連炎神功). Shadow Craft.
A ‘baseball bat’ with flames appeared in its right hand
This will be much more visible than the black bat made of shadows.
“Spread inside the ammunition depot, wake up the sleeping people and move! Quickly load up the ammunition and go down to the barracks!”
“Batman… ?”
“Now you’re using a fire bat?”
“Move!”
As I shouted, the survivors entered the warehouse and began loading ammunition into boxes made of shadows.
The guys I put to sleep with the sleep magic circle started waking up when I kicked them, and I hadn’t in a long time.
Poop!
I swung the baseball bat at the zombie.
“Can you see clearly?”
“Keeeeep!!!”
“Kwaaaaa!!!”
The zombies that rained down from the sky saw my baseball bat lighting up the dark, rainy night and started running towards me like crazy.
I swung the baseball bat as hard as I could at the zombie whose eyes had turned black for the first time in a long time.
Whoa, whoa!!
The zombie whose body was hit properly flew into the sky.
With my increased strength, I swung the baseball bat non-stop and smashed the zombies’ heads.
I don’t know how much zombie rain will fall, but I think we should head to the barracks. When I looked back slightly, the survivors were still loading ammunition into boxes.
“Move quickly! I have to live here until the end or go down!”
The survivors who heard my urging voice began to move faster.
The people next to me holding spears to kill zombies also gradually reduced the number of zombies who jumped at me like moths to fire when they saw my burning baseball bat, wondering if they wasted their time.
“Everything is loaded!”
“I woke up everyone who was sleeping!”
“Then run down!” I’ll bide your time until you run away, so run to the restaurant!”
People seemed to hesitate a little because the people who went to the restaurant were completely wiped out by the people at the supermarket, but when one person ran down the ammunition dump, everyone started running.
Some people fell in the rain, but others helped them up, and when the survivors around the ammunition dump quickly disappeared, all the zombies rushed towards me.
I want to amplify the flame field and wipe them out all at once, but I can’t do that because the ammunition is behind me.
He instantly got rid of the baseball bat he was holding in his hand and made a huge shadow greatsword into a shadow craft.
“This is the best.”
Suddenly! Suddenly!
I quickly cut down the ammunition depot with the nearby zombies and ran toward the barracks, dragging the heavy box of shadows.
The slow-footed survivor caught up to me right away, and I arrived at the barracks just as the leading guys were entering the dining hall.
When the mart’s spearmen were completely blocking the entrance to the barracks, Naeun, who was standing in front of me on the way to the cafeteria, saw me and waved his hand.
“I brought a bullet!”
“Let’s get rid of the zombies first! We’ll get the guns later! I think the evolved zombies will drop too!”
Naeun told a slightly more realistic story.
If the Lord of Plague gathered his strength and liberated him, the evolved zombies would definitely fall.
I ran straight to the main entrance to the barracks, unpacked everything I had taken from the ammunition dump, and picked up a flaming baseball bat to fend off the endless zombies falling from the sky.
It was the perfect day to say goodbye to the silver spear and baseball bat made by hammering metal at the supermarket.
