Chapter 788 – Processing Is Simple
Very late at night.
When even the moon was covered by clouds and complete darkness came, I was moving alone.
‘Kang So-ra doesn’t have to worry anymore.’
Originally, we were going to move together, but the provocation was stronger than expected, so we expected the opponent to move roughly.
So, I decided that it would be easier to move alone rather than with Kang So-ra, so I sent her away first, saying I had something else to do.
Old Ron’s bodyguards and immortal mercenaries are protecting her from behind, so there is no need to worry about her life.
‘I even gave you a few items, so it won’t be a big problem.’
When I protected her parents, I even handed over some of the items she used to her, so she doesn’t have to worry.
Even though the opponent was targeting me anyway, it just happened that I was fully prepared and drove the car that Old Man Ron had given me.
‘How long is it around the system?’
[Currently, there are a total of 13 people who are constantly visible around you.]
As many as 13 people were mobilized to kidnap an ordinary person.
Moreover, there is a high probability that they are not ordinary people but experts who have undergone rigorous training, so they put in quite a lot of effort.
As you drive, you ask the system to find out exactly where the enemies are and how they move.
There is a high probability that they will want to pounce and resolve the matter before I arrive at the hotel.
Since Riel found out that the Ryhel family loved her more than she thought, her attack was certain.
“Let’s start fishing soon.”
Old man Ron’s mansion is so large that it exists a little further away from the private houses.
With his abundance of wealth, he planted bodyguards around him, so there was nothing to worry about, but things were different now.
Now is the time to slowly leave the realm of inspiration, so it won’t be long before an attack comes.
[Two vehicles are approaching from behind.]
As expected, as soon as I leave the area, two black vehicles follow me.
After about 15 minutes from here, you’ll reach a place where people live, so you’ll want to deal with it before then.
However, if they are too close, Old Man Ron may move, so they will aim for just the right time.
‘Is it now?’
The two cars behind suddenly speed up and start following closely.
He’s probably thinking of stopping the vehicle to get some work done, so he’s probably trying to do something.
Just when two cars were running next to me, I slammed on the brakes and stopped.
-Kkeeeeek!!
A huge friction sound is heard because the tire, which was rolling quickly, suddenly stops.
When I suddenly stopped the car, the cars in front seemed to have realized that their presence had been discovered and immediately applied their brakes and started to back up.
‘Open areas are not very good.’
Since they were moving in the shadows, they would naturally have firearms.
It doesn’t hurt when I get hit anyway, but I don’t like it because it leaves holes in my clothes.
Before they came back, I turned the car and moved towards the forest and stopped the car in a dark place.
‘This is enough.’
I got in a bit deep, and they lost me for a while, so there couldn’t be better timing.
The moonlight became very dark because it was covered by clouds, but it didn’t really bother me as I had the body of a half-body.
Because I was able to comfortably distinguish the four directions at any time, whether it was light or dark.
-Roaring
As I hid in the bushes and waited quietly, two cars stopped near where I parked the car.
Those who got off the stopped vehicle were all wearing masks and looked around.
‘Total of 10 people.’
There were a total of 10 people in the car. 13 people moved, but 3 of them were missing.
There was a high probability that they were leading from the rear, so I found their location with the help of the system.
‘Where is it?’
[We are now entering the forest.]
Perhaps because I started late, I waited a little longer when I heard that I was finally entering the hidden forest.
If you take out the 10 people in front of you right now, they might run away.
I was planning to gather them up and deal with them neatly so as not to leave any regrets, so I deliberately left traces and started looking for a good place to raid.
—————–
Around the time when Lee Jin-seok was moving in the forest to kill them all.
-Squeak!
“What is the goal?!”
“I missed it.”
“Hah… Damn, you knew?”
Lloyd, who arrived at the forest, was irritated when he heard that the other person had hidden in the forest.
All you have to do is kidnap an ordinary person, and you have a peaceful future waiting for you. It’s annoying to have that interrupted.
Lloyd, who thought work had become a hassle, started arming himself with the night vision goggles he had prepared in the car in advance.
“The other party is an ordinary person. “You probably haven’t gone far yet, so spread out and search.”
I heard from a VIP that he had outstanding physical ability, but he didn’t really care.
No matter how excellent your body is, your opponent is an untrained ordinary person.
There was nothing to worry about as they were ordinary people who could not be compared to those who were always in danger of their lives.
“It’s okay to bother.”
Since the moonlight was obscured by clouds and it was so dark in all directions that it was difficult to distinguish, they probably wouldn’t have been able to escape very far.
This side can use night vision goggles to see what’s ahead without difficulty, but the opponent won’t be able to use light since they’re being chased, so they won’t have a hard time finding it.
Moreover, since I foolishly ran away into the forest where radio waves were not good, it would have been difficult to ask for help, so it was just annoying.
So Lloyd and his men began their search with a light heart, not knowing that they were actually entering the jaws of a tiger.
How long has it been since the search began?
“There are traces here.”
“Okay, I’ll take the lead from now on.”
Upon hearing that the traces had been found, Captain Lloyd took the lead, excited that he would soon be free.
What is the most important thing when living in the shade?
It was about moving while erasing traces and learning the skills to follow someone’s traces.
‘After all, he is an ordinary person.’
Even if the moonlight was a little bright, the traces remained so clear that night vision goggles were not needed.
Since there are no traces of erasure or caution, the other person does not even know the basics of running away.
Now that you have found the most important trace for tracking, it is easy to find it.
No matter how good your physical ability was, it was difficult to run away alone in this dark forest.
“Just in case, let’s look around to see if there are any other traces.”
“Yes.”
Still, in order not to miss even the slightest possibility, he ordered other subordinates to search for other traces nearby.
The reward you have this time is too sweet to be conceited and miss your goal.
Lloyd focused even more on the idea that he could obtain the freedom he had longed for so long.
———————–
“Is this enough?”
I already knew from the system that the other person would find my traces and chase me.
Since they were talking using a separate walkie-talkie, it was very easy for the system to find out their conversation and location.
I kept moving, leaving traces, and when I found a somewhat suitable place, I climbed a strong tree.
When climbing up, I deliberately left no trace and jumped from the ground and went straight up to the branch.
In their eyes, it would feel like I had suddenly disappeared, so I planned to aim for the neck while they were so embarrassed.
‘We don’t sell weapons in the store, so I’ll have to deal with this.’
For the sake of game balance, the store does not sell weapons.
Everything sold here is either for sex or for convenience.
Among them, the most basic convenience was utensils that allowed people to eat like humans.
I bought chopsticks at the store according to the number of them, put them in my back pocket and waited for them to approach.
-Sabak… Sabak.
After waiting for a while, they sense someone’s presence and at the same time they appear.
Seeing the guys looking around as if they had confirmed that my trail had been cut off, I targeted those who were moving separately.
‘But I guess I’m not a fool at all.’
I wondered if the traces I left behind were false, and I dealt with them, nodding at the guy’s choice to send the two people separately.
-Shoot!
Place the chopsticks on your palm, support them with your thumbs to prevent them from falling, and then throw them toward the target.
-Puuk
“Kruk!”
The iron chopsticks that flew towards the vocal cords to prevent screaming immediately pierced the target’s neck and became embedded in the ground.
‘Take care of one.’
Now that it’s time to contact him, he’ll realize he’s been attacked.
So, thinking that I had to deal with the one guy still left before that, I moved straight to where the other guy was and successfully killed him.
‘Shall I go back?’
Now that we’ve taken care of the guys who were looking for other traces behind us, all that’s left is the rest.
As I silently walked back to the guys who were still searching where the trail was broken, I wondered how Elizabeth would react after everyone was dead.
—————————
Around the time when Lee Jin-seok was dealing with the fallen Hell Hound’s subordinates.
“The trace is broken.”
“There are no traces anywhere else.”
“How did this… Happen?”
Lloyd couldn’t help but be embarrassed as he saw the traces that were completely cut off.
I thought he was an ordinary person who knew nothing, but he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
He disappeared so completely that it is impossible to understand whether he came back to life in the sky or hid in the ground.
“I’ll be around here, so I can check the surroundings some more.”
“Yes.”
Since I knew the trail ended here, I had no choice but to be nearby.
In that case, you should call in the subordinates you ordered to look for other traces just in case.
So Lloyd, who was trying to contact them, felt a chill and hid behind a tree.
‘W-what is it?’
Having lived in the shadows for 25 years, Lloyd prides himself on having a sharper sense of survival than anyone else.
And his trained sense of survival always saved his life, so hiding was automatic.
Although he obviously has excellent physical abilities, I heard that he is an ordinary person. Why does he get this creepy feeling?
Lloyd, who suddenly felt foreboding, immediately contacted his men in the rear.
“Everyone, please stop what you are doing and come back to where I am.”
Each of his subordinates has a GPS, so it is not difficult to find their location as long as they are within range.
So he gave an order to come right away, but when there was no reply, Lloyd felt cold sweat break out on his back.
‘No answer?’
As the Hell Hound unit is a group of operatives operating in the shadows, they move as soon as an order is given.
You should hear an answer saying you understand, but you don’t hear an answer at all.
‘It was a trap…’
Only then did Lloyd realize. He realized that this task, which he thought was no big deal, was actually a mission so dangerous that he had to risk his life.
This is the price he pays for being blinded by the freedom he had longed for. Because there was a trap right in front of me, but I didn’t notice it.
I should have thought that there was no way the other person would have noticed what was being followed and not have made any preparations.
And the price of being blinded by freedom and forgetting even the most basic things was quite high.
-Shooaaa
It’s quiet everywhere. I know they all move silently because they are veterans, but this is taking it too far.
Complete silence settled over the forest, and then Lloyd felt a familiar sensation.
The feeling he felt when he worked in the shadows several times.
Feeling like death was coming from all around her, Lloyd lost her motivation and just flopped down on the floor.
The moment when everything is quiet, and you lose motivation and tremble with the fear of death.
“Is this the last time?”
Lloyd eventually became frustrated at the cold voice he heard in front of her.
The man seen through the night vision goggles matched the target ordered by the VIP.
