Odin prepared the PDA’s ejection. Cha Jun Sung and Vanessa might be able to withstand the pressure of gravity, but the PDA will be destroyed the second it makes contact. Fortunately, there is no need to worry that he will be separated from Cha Jun Sung as happened in Public Underground.
Cha Jun Sung’s EEG shown on the battlesuit is normal. He does not seem to be in his right mind, but the readings show that he is behaving like this while in his right mind.
The first was Vanessa. He has his left arm stretched out in front of him, so Vanessa will inevitably be exposed to the gravity field first.
Boom boom boom!
White dust comes from her armor and breaks into several pieces. The liquid and form resembling Vanessa that were behind protected by the armor become distorted. Vanessa doesn’t know what the gravity field is or why it was formed, but she cannot move a single finger or toe under its horrible pressure.
That is how Vanessa got through the gravity field. All she had done was to go through a transparent veil, but her healthy body had become like a rag. Next was Cha Jun Sung. His left arm holding Vanessa’s face had looked like it was made of steel, but became wrinkly like that of an old man’s.
His muscles, flesh, and bones become extremely compacted by the gravity and become useless pieces of flesh. It would be easier to just cut it off and regenerate.
1 second – the time left until ejection keeps growing smaller. Cha Jun Sung’s arm and battlesuit are destroyed sequentially within that time.
Woong!
When his arm got close to the wind pressure of the gravity field, it completely disappeared into the gate opened in the Heavy Gravity. The heavy pressure that had been squeezing Cha Jun Sung felt washed away. But only the pressure had gone, and the traces were still left clearly on his body.
The battlesuit splits in large sections like dried land, and falls from his body. The shell breaks down and Cha Jun Sung’s bare body is exposed. The only defense he is now wearing is a thin set of impact tights.
[Lifer Cha Jun Sung?]
Odin cannot speak through the helmet, so he spoke through the PDA.
Cha Jun Sung let out black smoke and stands up. His wounds are less debilitating than Vanessa. His battlesuit absorbed most of the impact.
‘I can’t.’
He wants to go into his awakened state, but he stopped himself. It would be stupid to waste precious strength now when it is difficult to recharge. Vanessa and Narsiel are alive.
Cha Jun Sung takes the battlesuit part on his right arm off, and puts his PDA on his wrist like when he was just a beginner. He can’t remember how long it’s been since he’s worn it like this.
Cough!
“What… is this…..”
Vanessa coughs up blood. This was like lightning for her. It was an incredible hit from out of nowhere, in the most unbelievable way. Her balance crumbled in one hit.
He picked up Hades. Even without awakening, he has the strength of a stage 10 modification. This body is as powerful as a level 6 or 7.
“A special mission is far away, right? If I kill her now, I won’t be able to get the points, will I?”
If the special mission isn’t activated, he might not be able to get the reward points or – if he’s super unlucky – even the basic mutant points.
He doesn’t need them that badly, but he’d gone through hell. He won’t work for nothing. It isn’t just millions or tens of millions. It’s hundreds of millions. He needs to get those points.
[The block has been lifted for a moment. I am contacting the authorities.]
“Let’s end–!”
Cha Jun Sung was about to stab Vanessa when he suddenly stopped and rolled his body.
Boom!
A giant palm so large it could crush a human, slammed down where he had been standing. It was Narsiel, who had been standing back.
“Vanessa!”
“I need… time to rest. Narsiel… you take him for a few hours.”
Vanessa’s awakened state automatically becomes released. Perhaps because Evil Queen is a mutant created from a human, Vanessa also has the image of a human.
Cha Jun Sung looked back and forth between Vanessa and Narsiel, and thought carefully.
He healed his wounds in a half awakened state, but he is not completely back to normal. He used 50% of his strength inside the battlesuit and while withstanding the gravity field.
The situation was not bad, but it wasn’t good either.
‘I need to overdo myself if I want to kill Narsiel. And then Vanessa?’
Narsiel is also a top level 8 mutant. There is no way she’ll be easy even if he has wounded her, and there are no Lifers around to ask for help from.
He’ll have to figure it out alone. And then will he have the strength left to take care of Vanessa, who will have somehow recovered her strength while resting?
He might be able to, and he might barely get out. It is a rotation. It’s laughable to even say it, but it’s unfair that he needs to go between two enemies as if they were a tag team.
“Well, since it doesn’t get resolved just by complaining.”
Cha Jun Sung dropped Hades to the ground.
Narsiel was puzzled when he threw his weapon away, but did not let down her guard. The opponent looks like human, but is a mutant.
[Level A special mission The King’s Blood activated! Since this is unlike systems in existing missions in that there are two mutants, the goals are divided into two.]
Confronting Narsiel.
Cha Jun Sung leisurely pulled up the hologram on his PDA, and checked the new mission description.
[Level A Special Mission: The King’s Blood]
– Goal: Attainment
– Description: Get rid of Evil Queen and Bon Lord’s first daughter Narsiel, and second daughter and the vessel of Disasters Two-Faced Vanessa!
– Special Note: This is a mission where partial completion is possible.
Death of Narsiel: 2,000,000,000 points
Death of Vanessa: 5,000,000,000 points
Death of both: 10,000,000,000 points and lucky box. If you kill Vanessa, a level A advancement mission will be applied, and you will be able to open level S.
Strange for a level A, the description is simple. This is normal. There is no reason to be long-winded about it. All he has to do is kill them.
He gets 2 billion with Narsiel and 5 billion with Vanessa since she is nearly a level 9. A complete level 9 will be worth much more.
And if he kills both, he’ll get an advance mission. The start is hard, but the field is pretty much set with this.
“Odin. What do you think will happen to me now?”
He’s been found out as a mutant.
When the authorities took a sample from him before, he had not been contacted in any particular way. Cha Jun Sung forgot about it as well, but he was sure it would become bothersome.
[I do not have anything to say on the matter because it will be something for the authorities to decide on, but I will do my best to see that Lifer Cha Jun Sung is not adversely affected.]
Even if there was a problem in Cha Jun Sung’s body, what the 2nd officer did went too far. Full intervention isn’t something that the General Manager gave permission for. This is justification for Odin to go against his superior’s commands and take Cha Jun Sung’s side. At the minimum, they will not be blocked from returning.
“Wow! That’s the first welcome thing I’ve heard from you.”
Cha Jun Sung took off the PDA and put it down lightly next to Hades.
He cannot lose it. He needs to protect it from the battle that is about to happen.
His impact tights did not just rip, they exploded. Cha Jun Sung’s body rapidly swelled in size and became as tall as Narsiel.
Narsiel took several steps backwards because of the intimidation coming from this black demon. Vanessa, who was unable to fight, had already retreated from the battlefield. Cha Jun Sung’s 9 eyes take in what is in front of him, to the left, and to the right of him. He will of course kill Narsiel, but he cannot lose Vanessa either.
“It’s the 2nd act.”
Now, it is a battle between monsters. Not as Lifer Cha Jun Sung, but another mutant, Cha Jun Sung as the Black Lord of a different world.
