404. Archmage (1)

[Stage 10 Creature Rampage]

A notice was sent down to the former Black Badgers on patrol.

[Stage 10 Creature Rampage]

[Zone E-0 Access Prohibited]

[Rescue and protection of civilians is an urgent task]

Jason Tvein spat out a curse.

A strange feeling came over me. It was like I wanted to run to the place where the explosion had occurred.

This time, I really wanted to run and cut its neck.

But at the same time, I felt the opposite impulse.

It is the instinct of self-preservation.

I remembered the images of my former squad members falling down like bowling pins. I wanted to suppress the memories that were popping up, but I couldn’t do it as I wanted.

Memories from 50 years ago.

The piled up corpses and the burning floor.

Some of those who risked their lives and went into battle were left without even corpses.

“Fuck.”

Tvein ran down the road which had become a mess.

“Fuck!”

[Jason.]

As soon as he ran out, the voice of the head of the personnel department was heard.

[You listened to the instructions well, didn’t you?]

“Fucking instructions. Just leave it like that?! Don’t you know what’s going on?!”

[Hilde is going.]

The HR manager neither panicked nor appeased.

[Because only he can respond.]

“Bullshit!”

[Jason. This is an order from above.]

The Lord said without getting angry.

[You don’t intend to disobey orders, do you?]

Jason Tvein threw his head back and shouted a curse.

Then he turned around and ran towards the collapsed building.

The air was thick. A familiar pressure hit his body. He cursed and helped up the people who had fallen from the shock wave.

“Go, thank you… .”

“Stop being so clumsy and run!”

Badger answered sharply and roughly lifted the man up.

After rescuing those trapped under the structures and cars, I started running again, ignoring their screams and cries.

I continued to face the direction where I could see the light.

Unlike then, I won’t just stand back and watch stupidly.

[Jason Tvein.]

The head of the personnel department muttered in a low voice.

“Fuck, I’m helping with the evacuation!”

Tvein was annoyed.

[Even if you go to the park, you shouldn’t touch it.]

“Okay, I understand. Shut up now!”

He didn’t stop for a moment. He kept running into the park, pulling out people who were trapped.

A wind that hinders the gallop.

As the shockwave passed through his body, hitting him hard, the Black Badger war hero hated the creature again and again.

Memories of that time that can’t be erased from my mind.

This time I won’t be as helpless as I was then.

Badger, who had fought in the First World War, ran down the street, gnashing his teeth.

***

Several people died.

I couldn’t not know, because there were several explosions while I was driving in reverse towards the park.

The sound of explosions was mixed with the final words.

The sound of a building collapsing. The sound of a car crashing.

Kwaaaaang!

“Ahhhh!”

We have to prevent an explosion.

Carl Doe thought desperately as he ran against the people who were running and crying.

I had no idea how to stop it, but I had to somehow stop the chain of explosions that were occurring.

To prevent the constant emergence of victims… .

[Stopped.]

As he approached the park, rescuing people, a cold voice came into his ear.

[Attack paused. Something like a gochi appeared.]

“Are you talking about the bug cocoon?”

[I can’t guarantee it because the quality of the video is poor.]

After a brief silence, he said:

[If you’re going to be nearby, go now.]

The knife that had been tearing off the dented car door raised its head.

[The explosion has stopped.]

Carl Doe didn’t hesitate.

He sprinted down the road. There were people everywhere who needed help, but he didn’t stop. Having worked as a Black Badger for a long time, this kind of situation wasn’t entirely unfamiliar to him.

He has only one body, and he cannot save everyone.

I had to accept that to avoid becoming mentally ill.

It was important to take action that would save the most people.

At this point, people near the park may need more help.

So he ran to the park.

Then a huge ball of light appeared before my eyes. Daisy Park had disappeared, and in its place was a mass of light that looked ready to explode at any moment.

A lump of unstable, swaying matter.

“Is this fixed?”

[uh.]

Several drones were seen floating in the sky.

[I just started making it.]

The slowly growing mass blew out an unknown wind.

The wind was so strong that even Badger had to strain his legs.

Parked cars and vending machines were hit by the wind and fell over.

Trash cans flew and trees snapped.

If you touch it carelessly, it’ll explode.

Carl looked at the mass of light and thought.

If you hit it wrong, everything around you will disappear.

[Don’t touch.]

Yoon seemed to have the same thoughts.

[I don’t understand what’s going on. So evacuate.]

“yes.”

I obediently respond to the words of my senior, who seems to be preparing for sortie.

The surroundings were in shambles after being hit by an explosion.

He approached people coming out of the building.

“Run along India!”

A ball of light appeared and guided people running out of the building as the explosion died down.

“To India!”

The wind was blowing so hard that many people fell while running.

“Protect your head with your hands!”

When I shouted out my instructions, a rule was created on the road that had been gripped by panic.

It helped that I took out my Badger ID, which I always wore.

Because the Core residents followed the instructions of those with Badger ID without fail.

“There are a lot of fallen things, so be careful not to step!”

Damn it!

A building window that cracks so badly it’s scary to watch out for.

Instead of the explosion subsiding, an ominous wind blows.

As he watched the various things being blown away by the wind, Carl Doe thought that it would have been nice if there had been just one more Badger.

It would be a good idea to have one person guide the citizens here, and another person check inside the building.

There will definitely be some who are unable to escape.

In a situation where you don’t know when another explosion will occur… .

“hey!”

Badger of Cheong-an heard a familiar voice.

“I’ll guide you here, so you just look around the nearby buildings!”

Jin Silver.

A returning war hero ran toward him, running against the flow of evacuating crowds.

***

This is something I have to go through.

It’s a good thing I brought a sword. I was worried that a longsword wouldn’t go well with a white shirt and black pants, but I brought it anyway just in case.

It was a successful choice. I was ready to jump in right away.

I had to try to stop the rampage.

Cecil must approach her while cutting through the spells that extend in all directions.

The other Badgers were right to help rescue and evacuate civilians.

The seniors here too… .

“Are you in contact with the top brass?”

I asked You.

[yes!]

The bookseller answered nervously.

[The leaders are also popping out! Even so, it won’t help at all!]

“Where are you? If you’re at headquarters or the cabin, don’t come out.”

[Please stop talking nonsense.]

Youga responded coldly.

[Unfortunately, I’m nearby too. I thought my eardrums were going to burst!]

“Then come here.”

I didn’t say run away.

Even if I told him, he wouldn’t listen, and there was no guarantee that he would be safe if I ran away.

“Do you know where I am now?”

[I stopped stalking you after I caught you in the Glass House.]

“Then let’s meet at the park.”

That would be neat.

Without even crossing in the middle.

“I’ll be leaving soon.”

I looked around the pop-up store and figured out the situation.

Shu is calming down the civilians by cornering them.

Ricardo rescuing those trapped under the rubble.

“Ugh.”

The situation on the basement floor of the pop-up store was more serious than where I was.

Cecil’s rampage made it feel like the creatures that had been sleeping all over the center core were waking up and moving around.

They too must have felt a threat to their lives.

There are also creatures detected nearby.

“choux.”

I quickly called the two-tone hair senior.

The senior who had been examining the civilian’s wounds straightened his back and turned to me.

She calmed the civilians down and then came to me.

Even though the floor was a mess, he skillfully pushed the wheelchair over and stopped right next to me.

I looked down at my senior, who was raising his head.

“I think I have to go quickly.”

Shu’s eyes grew wide.

“I have to go and calm the situation down. Please take good care of this place.”

“What’s going on?”

“The portal has opened.”

The senior took a deep breath.

“Cecil is here.”

The color drained from Shu’s face.

Blue eyes dyed in shock.

I was about to tell the pale, exhausted senior that I was going to go see Cecil and that he should take good care of the place.

“Take me too.”

But the younger one spoke first.

“I’m sensitive to portals.”

“Senior, you are here helping the civilians evacuate….”

“Isn’t there a reason they kidnapped me and pushed me into the flowers?”

Shu convinced me without wavering.

“I know you don’t want to take me because my legs don’t work. Don’t ask me to push the wheelchair. I’ll just follow you.”

The wheelchair engine started up loudly.

“My father, who has the same constitution as me, kept seeing Cecil.”

but.

There was some truth to what she said.

But it was ridiculous to follow him in a wheelchair. The outside would be so chaotic that it would be difficult to get around by car.

I have to pick it up and run.

“All right.”

I quickly came to a conclusion.

There was no time to worry or argue any further.

But instead of going straight for the shoe, I turned my body towards where the building had collapsed, revealing the basement level.

“Rick.”

He looks down and calls out to the senior in green.

He must have heard the conversation between Shu and me, but he probably doesn’t know that the messy creatures have awakened.

I stood on the edge of the collapsed floor and looked down at my superior.

A rolling figure and cracked floor on the basement level.

Green eyes looked up at me.

The people who were trapped under the rubble had already been rescued. It seemed like they had evacuated people to the stairs, which were unlikely to collapse under any circumstances.

Skillful handling.

This person was traumatized by the collapsed building.

“Why~.”

“Creatures might come. The explosion just woke them up.”

“Okay~.”

Ricardo answered coolly.

“I’ll take care of it, so you go quickly… .”

“I can feel it nearby, it seems like the things in the sewers have awakened.”

“Then it would be the size of a rat at best… I’ll take care of it~.”

“if….”

“I know what you’re thinking~.”

Ricardo cut me off from what I was about to say.

“I can handle this kind of situation… .”

Is it real?

I couldn’t be sure, but I had no choice but to believe it. Now, I couldn’t stay here and help him.

Besides, from what I’ve seen, he actually seemed okay.

I’m not sweating cold or breathing hard.

All that is contained in those green eyes is a clear sense of purpose.

It appears to be a sense of mission to rescue the civilians who were caught up in it.

I’m sure you’ll do well.

I bit my lip hard.

And he remembered that his opponent was a seasoned war hero.

“i look forward to.”

Instead of an answer, the ring on Ricardo’s finger wiggled.

A silver snake ring quickly became an elegant spear.

“Okay… go.”

Ricardo smiled faintly.

“Be careful.”

He nodded.

It wasn’t any more aesthetically pleasing.

I turned away from my senior and turned my body.

And then he hugged Shu, who was waiting next to him.

The little senior, whose eyes widened in surprise at my sudden action, quickly regained his composure and held me tightly in his arms.

“sorry!”

“no.”

After a short reply, I ran out of the pop-up store.

Then, he drew his right hand and started running towards the heavy sound.
