Chapter 582 – Surrender
I looked at the heavy bullet that had been stopped with telekinesis.
Just by looking at it, you can see that it has a completely different destructive power than the bullets I used in Rebellion.
This was an attack with blatant murderous intent, different from the intruders last night.
‘It was an assassination.’
Sniping in such a dense forest.
Zephyria’s technology is superior to Earth’s, so the quality of its weapons is also better. However, it seemed like the sniper’s ability was greater than the equipment’s ability.
‘I don’t think I can see any surveillance devices…’
It appears that a supernatural power called psychic power played a greater role than magical power.
-Whoosh- Twaa!!
The second bullet also stopped right in front of my nose.
Sarah and Jenny were lying on the floor with Popo covering their heads.
I was already ‘seeing’ the person who shot this person.
He was standing on a large tree less than 2 kilometers away, stepping on a thick and strong branch and still not taking his eyes off the scope.
It seemed like he was preparing for a third sniping.
Even though the sniping failed, the guy didn’t seem to have any intention of moving.
It seemed like he thought the lush forest was covering him.
He is not tens of kilometers away from me.
It may be 2 kilometers or not.
Even if I couldn’t fully reveal my presence… It was within the realm of awareness that my consciousness could easily reach by 2 or 3 kilometers.
Since he doesn’t know that, he’s probably leisurely preparing for the next attack like that.
I picked up one of the two bullets stopped in the air.
The bullet turns black.
It was a kind of protective shield made of magical power to prevent bullets from shattering.
I hit the bullet with my index finger, like hitting a chestnut.
-Tung…
The bullet disappeared with a dull sound.
The sniper did not realize that I had sent the bullet back.
– Push!
The head of the guy who was preparing to snipe exploded like a watermelon from the bullet I sent flying away with the snap of my fingers. And then he falls from the tree helplessly.
After taking care of the sniper, I turned my attention elsewhere.
There were others besides the sniper who were expected to be assassins.
It’s also quite close.
Is it 20 meters from me? They were hiding on top of trees in different directions.
There are two people on my radar.
The number is smaller than expected.
They probably used a cloaking device, but they were simply invisible to the naked eye.
For some reason, they didn’t move.
If I think about the reason… I think they tried to make a surprise attack if I was shot, injured, or showed a weakness…
Since I am in such a normal state, I wonder if I am embarrassed or being watched.
I had no intention of waiting for them to make their move. All you had to do was make it move.
I flicked the one remaining bullet away with my finger.
To the assassin on the right.
-Tung.
He nimbly dodged the bullets I fired at him. When they thought they had been discovered, the two assassins moved at the same time as if they were one body.
-Pick pick!!
Silent blue flames explode continuously from both of their hands. Dozens of bullets come flying at me, sounding like a gunshot with a silencer.
Considering that it was fired lightly with both hands, I expected it to be a type of weapon like a pistol.
Their attack was aimed only at me.
I stopped the bullet being fired using only telekinesis.
They say it has more destructive power than the non-lethal guns used by those who attacked last night, but at my level there was no difference.
When the bullets they fired were returned intact by telekinesis, they evaded or deflected the bullets with agile movements.
They seemed superior in terms of combat power to those who attacked us last night.
The amount of magical power also seemed to be at least B grade.
Well… To me, they’re just no-nonsense people.
Perhaps because he thought a gun wouldn’t work, the guy on the left accelerated explosively and ran towards me.
Sparks fly from his waist.
The object sticking out there was in the shape of a sword.
‘Baldosul?’
A blade of blue flame cuts me down.
A significant amount of magical energy was accumulated, so the destructive power seemed significant.
But the gap between him, and I was significant.
I stretched out my left hand and lightly grabbed the sword and stopped it.
I can feel his embarrassment as the sword was held in vain by my hand without even making a scratch.
The guy tried to pull out the sword, but he wouldn’t budge.
My right fist was pulled back.
I can feel the conflict of the person who saw that.
It seemed like he didn’t want to let go of the sword.
My fist, which was pulled back, moves forward.
In the end, the guy let go of the sword and leaned back.
My fist didn’t reach the guy.
However, a wave of magical power exploded from the tip of the fist and swept over him.
-Geugeuggeung!!
He disappeared along with the blood mist.
And a wide highway was opened in the forest.
Another assassin who was running towards me stopped abruptly when he saw that.
I shifted my gaze to the guy.
The guy who caught my gaze said something unexpected.
“Ha, surrender! Surrender!”
The guy revealed his invisible body and shouted surrender.
The assassin held a dagger in both hands and was dressed in all black.
Although her face was not visible due to the helmet, the flowing curves visible above the tight suit indicated that the assassin was a woman.
She threw away the dagger she was holding and appealed that her surrender was sincere.
I wonder if there is some ulterior motive behind her too-quick declaration of surrender? I couldn’t help but have doubts.
She seemed to have noticed my thoughts and took off her helmet.
A beautiful woman with oriental eyes without double eyelids revealed her face.
“… Why didn’t you run away?”
Before surrendering, you might want to try running away.
“If I had run away, would you have saved me?”
“…”
Of course, they wouldn’t have saved him.
Have you just decided that you can’t run away?
Should I say I’m quick-witted? .
“Did Fallon send you?”
“… Yes.”
Was it Fallon’s doing?
I didn’t think he would come looking for the sex video himself.
Fallon saw how I dealt with the raiders last night.
If you’re in your right mind, you shouldn’t even think about looking for it yourself. And I moved a little leisurely to give him time to take action.
“Are there just two of them?”
However, the number of troops was smaller than I expected.
“Three, three.”
“Sniper?”
“… Yes.”
The assassin swallowed her dry saliva and answered while looking at me.
“There are more enemies than I thought.”
“Well, I had no choice because I didn’t have enough time to prepare.”
There was more I wanted to ask, but I wondered if it would have any meaning because of the ban.
If you can’t interrogate them, there’s really no reason to keep them alive…
“I have an old mother and many younger siblings to feed.”
As if she sensed my thoughts, she recited a line I felt I had heard many times before.
“…”
She must have sensed that my expression wasn’t very good, so she quickly said something else.
“I will tell you anything you ask without lying.”
“Isn’t there a ban?”
“They’re shabby guys, right? High-level mercenaries like me can’t be hired if such restrictions are in place.”
He’s a high-class mercenary…
To me, it looks like it’s lacking a lot, but I don’t think it’s a lie.
She possessed combat power that was not much lower than that of the military combatants I had seen in Selby’s laboratory. If it weren’t for the difference in equipment, it might look a little better.
Most of Zephyria’s strong men were military combatants, and those with skills comparable to theirs would be quite valuable to civilians.
She said she didn’t have any inhibitions, so I started asking questions.
Her name is Mildred.
He is said to be a mercenary hired by Quinter Corporation.
She said she tried to assassinate me after receiving an emergency call from Fallon…
“Where is Fallon?”
“Maybe… She’s at the villa.”
“Do the guys who secretly attacked us last night know?”
“Yes, they are also mercenaries of the Quinter Corporation called by Fallon.”
Was it Fallon’s doing after all? .
It seems that Fallon did not kill Unas and report it to the police, but rather contacted the mercenaries.
And she would quickly return to camp and dispose of Carol’s body…
Fallon’s magical power is the highest among Sarah’s group. If he had sprinted, the travel time could have been cut in half.
“But why did you try to kidnap us?”
“I guess it’s because the master wanted it… I don’t know the exact reason, but… Isn’t it obvious?”
Mildred glances at fake Sunni and Celestia.
Are you jealous of Suni and Celestia?
It’s not that you can’t understand, but… That’s the case for ordinary humans.
Why is a pervert who likes fucking corpses revealing a living woman?
“… It would be better to move before the sun sets.”
There were still many questions to ask, but it seemed better to leave the forest first.
“Fallon must have taken the boat… Is there a way to cross the river?”
“… There is a boat that we came on.”
“Can you guide me to where Fallon is?”
“Of course… Of course.”
(Sigh… I’m going crazy because of this idiot. Why on earth did you touch this monster?)
Mildred muttered that and glanced at the place where her comrade, who had already disappeared in six pieces, was with a bitter expression, then took heavy steps.
