Chapter 384 – Episode 43. Seoul Underground.
“Be careful! There are so many!”
With my adult senses, I realized that what was shaking the surrounding bushes was a pack of deformed wild dogs. The number of deformed wild dogs that I could sense was almost over a hundred, so I warned everyone.
Han Yu-kyung protected herself with her mental shield and cast the buff magic Starlight Forging on all of us. It was a very useful buff that gave magical additional damage to attacks.
Since it was effective against guns, if I found a character who had mastered star magic in the game (there were no characters with star magic among the named NPCs), I would recruit them to use them as support characters.
Of course, Lara Sinclair was preparing for battle, holding her machine rifle with both hands, and Nero and White Bear were also growling, wary of the surroundings.
“I’ll attack first!”
They were using smart tactics for a wild dog that kept scuttling around in the bush and trying to reduce our mental strength and concentration, but since we weren’t the ones to get tired from that, I decided to open the battle first rather than wait. . .
Shinkaiyatsude (深海八手) Isshokugaichimanshi (One tentacle becomes ten thousand branches.)
As I held out my hand while filling the abyss, the abyss sparkling with starlight split into more than a thousand pieces and began to destroy the trees and bushes in front of me. Of course, the bodies of the deformed dogs that were caught along with it were also replaced, devastating the entire front line. Perhaps thanks to Han Yu-gyeong’s starlight forging buff, its power has become greater than expected.
Before the aftereffects of my attack subsided, Nero and White Bear rushed at the deformed wild dogs, followed by me and Lara Sinclair. Han Yu-kyung, whose role is to support and attack from the rear, came running from behind.
“Kung!”
If it were a normal wild dog, it would have just run away after being attacked by me, but these were modified wild dogs. Because he was so aggressive, even when he saw me laying waste to the surroundings, he didn’t run away and instead ran towards the group.
I put my fist into the mouth of Shinkai Yatsude’s herbivore-attacking deformed wild dog and unleashed the energy of the abyss inside, making it explode. Nero was chopping up a deformed wild dog (whose claws were nearly 30 centimeters long) with a meow punch, and the white bear was moving at incredible speeds, biting the wild dogs’ necks before they could even react. From what I remember, one of the white bear’s abilities was high-speed movement, and it seemed like he was using that ability now.
While the two animals were active at the front, Han Yu-kyung was constantly shooting starlight at the rear, blowing a hole the size of her fist in the body of her wild dog, and Lara Sinclair was steadily firing a series of machine guns with the machine rifle in both hands. Did. Maybe it’s because she’s an android, but she was killing the reaction perfectly. Perhaps because of her starlight forging her buff her, Lara Sinclair’s bullets were able to kill the deformed wild dogs one at a time.
“What was the technology just now?”
“Who did you ask?”
Not knowing who Lara Sinclair’s cry was addressed to, I turned her shadow into her spear and pierced the head of her transformed wild dog and asked Lara Sinclair back.
“I asked both of you! Because of the brilliant technique used by Han Yu-kyung, the 2040-NATO bullet has become so powerful that its true power cannot be measured! And I have never heard of a human punch causing such widespread destruction!”
Ah, you might be curious. But there was no time to answer in detail. Even now, several deformed wild dogs opened their mouths at the same time and jumped up to bite my neck. Of course, there is rebirth, so you won’t die, but even if there is rebirth, pain is still pain. There was no need to put your neck on it.
“I’m in the middle of a battle, so I’ll explain later!”
I grabbed the neck of the deformed wild dog that was in front of me and swung it like a club, knocking out the other two. I used a club to break the heads of the remaining deformed wild dogs until they disintegrated.
“After…”
All the deformed wild dogs were wiped out and the corpses of the deformed wild dogs with only the head and parts of the vertebrae remaining were discarded.
“Let’s go down now.”
Lara Sinclair and Han Yu-kyung, who were in the back, were okay, but I was covered in blood, so I decided to go down first. Nero and White Bear were still in a soft state because they were able to cleanly wipe off the blood by turning back into the shadows or briefly turning into spirits.
After returning to the research center site, we took a moment to do some personal maintenance and gathered together in one place. During the study, there were shower facilities and spare clothes, so I washed and changed clothes and went to where everyone was gathered. Han Yu-kyung also seemed to have washed her hair, and her hair was moist. When I came in, he said he had a hard time and asked me to sit down, so I sat down.
“I briefly explained it to Lara. “I mean, we’re the ones with superpowers, which is a hot topic these days.”
Ah, then it’s convenient because I don’t have to explain it. Since Han Yu-kyung has a higher intelligence, she must have explained it well to Lala Sinclair.
“But doesn’t Lala know about the existence of psychics? Now that I think about it, the gun I got from Energy-Link Industries’ abandoned factory in the U.S. Is compatible with superpowers?”
The gun obtained from Energy-Link Industrial Company’s abandoned factory was officially named EL-0001, and its nickname in the game was El1. This gun was the next-generation rifle that Energy-Link Industrial Company promoted as the American standard gun during World War III.
The L1 looked like a futuristic gun from a science fiction film, but it was not a gun that fired bullets like it looked, but a rifle that fired energy bullets using a battery pack. I thought Lara Sinclair knew about superpowers because when a superpower grabs them and infuses them with energy, they fire energy bullets related to their respective characteristics.
“Of course, I knew that there were people with superpowers due to the LA incident that caused the famine, but this was the first time I knew that one of our products was compatible with superpowers. “Can you tell me the name of that gun?”
“It’s EL-0001. It is said that it was created as the target of the U.S. Military’s next-generation rifle during World War III. In the end, I wasn’t selected.”
At my words, Lara Sinclair began to blink for a moment as if she was looking up information. She then opened her mouth.
“EL-0001 is being prepared for mass production at TG Tech under the name TG-EL-0001. Looking at my father’s data, it seems that the superpower was an unintentional ability because it was aimed at being the next generation rifle for the U.S. Military.”
I see. I thought it was an intended ability. It’s a gigantic ability that was revealed by chance. Well, since the goal was the US military’s next-generation rifle, there was no need to include a superpower compatible function.
“I have a sample of the TG-EL-0001, so why not show me it in action? There is a prototype lab, so follow us.”
“Good. “I need to check because it may not work as it changes to a mass-produced model.”
The reason EL-0001 was brought to TG Tech was to be the first to dominate the market as a weapon exclusively for psychics, so I told Eve not to change the circuit design as much as possible, but I’m not sure if that was followed.
“Can I use that gun called EL-0001?”
“If Yu-kyung writes it, won’t it go out like the starlight that I wrote about earlier?”
As I was following Lara Sinclair, Han Yu-kyung seemed curious, and she asked if she could use it, and I answered with her nod.
The place we followed Lara Sinclair was quite a large area. Because TG Tech mainly produced military goods, it was built quite sturdy. It was a good enough place to see the performance of firearms.
“This mass production prototype is TG-EL-0001. Please check it out.”
TG-EL-0001 still looks like a sci-fi future gun, but it looks a little closer to a regular gun than the EL-0001. I took the TG-EL-0001, blew into the abyss and fired at the target. Tentacle-like black energy shot out and shattered the target.
Fortunately, it seemed that abilities compatible with superpowers did not disappear when it was mass-produced. Lara Sinclair paused for a moment as if surprised when she saw the launched tentacle, then opened her mouth.
“It was true that it was compatible with supernatural powers.”
“Me too! “I want to give it a shot too!”
Han Yu-kyung also took over the gun and fired. The starlight projectile, like the one fired at the modified wild dogs earlier, flew towards the target.
“Ah! Do! “It consumes less mental power than when you just use it, right?”
“I think it helps with energy consumption because there is a battery pack.”
When used by ordinary people other than psychics, the battery pack fired energy bullets using the electricity in the battery pack, so the energy consumption of psychics seemed to be reduced due to this battery pack.
“It seems that the consumption of the battery pack has decreased, perhaps due to the energy of the psychic.”
It was Lara Sinclair, who had a measuring device attached to her gun that told her how much battery was left. Even psychics were able to save their energy, but the battery pack consumption seemed to decrease as the psychic put in energy, so it really seemed like a gun suitable for psychics to use.
“Well, I’ll give you both guns, so keep firing. Because you can know what the principle is and how to improve it.”
We received one more TG-EL-0001 and had to keep shooting until Lara Sinclair was satisfied. Han Yu-kyung got tired first and at some point started firing regular energy bullets instead of starlight, and perhaps because my Abyss stat was so high, I was able to keep firing tentacles until the battery pack ran out.
