Former Agent’s Attitude to Dealing with the End - Chapter 135



Only Noblemtl

Episode 135

10 minutes.

10 minutes.

10, 10, 10.

The number 10 I heard on the radio struck my parched brain hard.

It felt like my head, which had been empty until just a moment ago, was now filled with the number 10.

Now, when reason, instinct, and even every single cell in our body screams to live.

We focused all our attention on the exit at the back, not on the end of the gun barrel we were aiming at.

But not a single person gathered there hastily turned around or ran away.

No, I couldn’t.

It was because I read the current that changed in an instant as a species of animal rather than a human.

“… … .”

The ‘thing’ that had been mocking us just a moment ago suddenly stopped moving and became silent.

At the same time, it sprayed a sticky and heavy presence like concentrated blood in all directions.

He noticed it too.

That we, who thought we were just toys, were actually plotting our way out of this place.

The rooftop, which I thought was blocked off, was actually a disgusting rat hole.

Is it anger at being deceived, or is it an extension of pure malice at not being able to do as he pleases?

The team members’ breathing became increasingly ragged as they faced the thick, thick air current that seemed as if it would cut through their flesh.

‘There is not much time.’

‘It’ will probably carry out a different kind of carnage when all those flares are lit.

There are 10 minutes left, but only 2 minutes left until all the flares burn out.

How you survive the next eight minutes is the key that will determine the difference between life and death.

I exhaled roughly, feeling that everything depended on the decision I was making now.

“Everyone, shut up and listen carefully.”

“… … .”

“When the flares go out, retreat sequentially from the rear. Never move simultaneously. If the cover is cut off, we all die.”

Up until now, ‘it’ has always hidden itself in the dark, except for the first time.

Perhaps this was an instinctive choice, made with an understanding of the power of firearms.

Crunch!

I quickly changed the type of shotgun shell, judging by the amount of time left.

At the same time, he sent out signals to the rear to decide who would go out first.

Chijijik.

At that moment, the red flares that had been burning brightly began to lose their light one by one in the order in which they were thrown.

Darkness gradually encroached upon our surroundings, and we retreated step by step in response.

On the verge of exploding.

Just before they barged in.

The flare that was emitting its last breath finally went out completely with its last puff of smoke.

Crunch!

At the same time, my teammates and I shined a flashlight attached to the muzzle at a 45 degree angle.

“… … !”

As expected, ‘it’ with long hair was crawling on the ceiling.

With an eerie expression that made it hard to tell whether he was crying or laughing.

“Shoot!”

So we quickly took aim and started pulling the trigger without a moment’s hesitation.

Doo doo doo doo doo-!!

As the gun fired, countless bullets flew through the air and struck the ceiling.

The ceiling was then honeycombed, and pieces of broken debris were scattered everywhere.

They were an excellent group of bullets that could even grind meat, as everyone was 100% focused on the situation.

But nowhere in the space illuminated by the flashlight was the bastard’s form visible.

Kwajik!

“… … ?”

At that moment, one of the soldiers who was reloading his ammunition suddenly had his neck snapped in the opposite direction.

The rest of the people who were right next to him were dumbfounded by the sudden situation.

It’s a tremendous speed.

‘It’ had already avoided the bullet’s trajectory and came right in front of me, killing one of the agents.

Hehehe, hic! Hehehe!

As if he was enjoying such a listless death, he tore the corpse’s mouth open.

And then he ran towards me with a strange expression on his face that I couldn’t tell if he was laughing or crying.

Boom!

Luckily, I reacted half a beat faster and quickly turned the gun and fired the shotgun.

Kkeek!

The slug bullet hit him square in the chest, causing him to fall down in the exact same position he was charging at.

“Now! Quickly!”

As soon as I knocked the guy down, I shouted and the team members behind me hurriedly ran to the emergency exit.

So, I, the last one left, pulled the trigger repeatedly and fired the remaining bullets.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The power of a slug bullet is such that even a wild boar can be killed on the spot if hit properly.

But even though ‘it’ was hit squarely by the bullet, it didn’t stop its characteristic movements.

Knock knock!

Instead, he glared at me with a hideous, distorted expression and his teeth chattered.

Is it persistence?

Or is it madness?

He was clearly not dead, even though one side of his head was sunken in and half of his upper body was gone.

No, he even slowly regenerated his body and ran towards me like crazy.

ping!

Having run out of bullets, I instinctively took out the remaining flash grenade and removed the safety pin.

But because the bastard was so fast, it exploded in my hand before I could throw it.

Phew!

In an instant, there was an explosion of light and sound, my vision became blurred, and I lost my sense of direction.

Beep-!

All that could be heard was the creature’s grotesque screams of pain, accompanied by a loud tinnitus.

Even while losing my balance, I struggled to pull out the jungle sword that was hanging on my waist.

widely!

But at that moment, someone came and hurriedly helped me up as I lost my balance.

As I tried to keep my shaking vision still, I saw Private Oh Chan-il, whose face was drenched in sweat.

Of course, next to them, Kim Jin-kyung and Olivia were constantly yelling.

“Brother! Come to your senses!”

The muzzle kept firing, and the bullets that came out of the chamber scattered through the air like shrapnel.

I shook my head like crazy, still hearing tinnitus, and barely managed to regain my balance.

“Helicopter! The helicopter is here!”

At that moment, the last remaining PMC agent shouted urgently from the stairs leading to the rooftop.

The sound of rotors in the distance told me that a helicopter was approaching the rooftop.

“I can’t stand it anymore!”

“Whoa! It’s coming!”

He must have heard that sound too, because he crawled toward us through the hail of bullets.

At this, Kim Jin-kyung and Olivia decided that they couldn’t hold out any longer and ran towards us.

The distance is only 20M.

We started running like crazy towards the emergency stairs leading to the rooftop.

“Close it! Close it, quickly!”

“Eww!”

At the same time, as soon as I entered the room, I closed the emergency exit and quickly locked it.

thud!

thud!

thud!

But the persistent man did not give up and kept knocking on the emergency exit like crazy.

The emergency exit door, which was clearly made of iron, was gradually becoming warped and its hinges were also twisted.

We were so scared that we blocked the emergency exit door with our whole bodies to prevent the guy from getting in.

Tadadadadada-!!

At that moment, the sound of a helicopter approaching from the rooftop entrance above our heads began to be heard.

I came to my senses in the middle of a scene filled with screams, roars, rotor noises and shouts.

“Give me all your flashbangs and go up!”

“yes?”

“Let’s get the helicopter off the ground!”

If he attacks the helicopter that landed, we’re all as good as dead.

I grabbed all the flashbangs that were effective and blocked the door with my whole body.

The group hesitated at first, but as soon as they saw my expression, they gritted their teeth and ran up the stairs.

Kkarduduk!

At that moment, the emergency exit hinges began to tear off with a sound of metal tearing.

The bastard managed to get his hand through the twisted gap and rip the entire door off.

Suddenly.

Suddenly.

Suddenly.

Suddenly.

Conversely, the corners of the mouth are downturned.

Red, bleeding eyes with blood flowing from them.

The ‘thing’ that found me chattered its teeth, showing its determination to kill me.

Boom!

At that moment, the emergency exit door that had been barely holding on was completely torn off and the entrance was opened.

The guy who entered inside in an instant threw open the rattling door and started looking for me.

ping!

But what was there wasn’t me, it was a bunch of flash grenades with all the pins removed.

pop!

Pufufufu!

The flash grenade, with its safety pin removed, exploded on the spot, causing a tremendous flash of light and sound.

Kkaaaaaaah!

The guy, whose senses were already sensitive, hurriedly covered his eyes and ears and cried out in pain.

However, as if they had already become accustomed to it through one experience, they quickly followed me as I ran away.

It’s only one floor.

That one floor felt so far away.

Phew, whoosh!

I desperately crawled up the dark stairs, forgetting even to breathe.

Behind him, a man with his whole body covered in black blood was following him, screaming in a strange way.

Now is the last time.

I took out the last remaining throwable, removed the pin, and threw it down the stairs.

widely!

Then, as if it had no effect anymore, the guy knocked away the falling projectile with his hand.

But it was a mistake on the part of the mutants to think that they had experienced all of the human weapons.

Kwaaaaang-!!

The sound of a grenade explosion, on a different level than a flashbang, engulfed the narrow staircase.

The bastard took the brunt of the blast, and I, who was only 10 meters away, was caught in the aftershock.

My body feels like it’s floating.

I feel a hot heat on my back.

I ran down the stairs with flames and black smoke rising, barely managing to fly myself.

Crunch!

I felt the raindrops hitting my whole body mercilessly, along with the excited rainwater soaking the floor.

Finally, I climbed up to the rooftop and with difficulty raised my head to look at the landing pad.

“—–!!”

There, the group was shouting along with the helicopter that had already landed.

The helicopter was spinning its rotors and rising, as if it could no longer wait.

Phew, whoosh!

I barely managed to get up, swallowing the excruciating pain in my waist and legs.

And then I mustered up the last of my strength and ran towards the helicopter that was finally starting to take off.

I couldn’t hear anything.

Only the group was visible.

Now, the only thought that came to my mind was that I had to run just one more step and go back.

I flew towards the helicopter that was moving further and further away in the slowly flowing time.

widely!

As I stretched out my hand, the group rushed towards me as if they had been waiting for me, desperately pulling at my arms and clothes.

Thanks to that, I didn’t fall to the ground, so I gritted my teeth and placed my hand on the step of the passenger seat.

The helicopter slowly gained altitude and then quickly flew away from the building.

Okay.

Now I’m alive.

Feeling relieved a little later, I grabbed my companions’ hands and tried to get into the passenger seat.

widely!

“… … !”

But at that moment, my body, which had been rising with a sense of weight, suddenly began to sink.

At the same time, the expressions of the people who were pulling me up were filled with shock.

I looked down and saw that ‘it’ had flown all the way here and was grabbing my ankle.

And then he tried to get onto the helicopter, as if he was going to kill us all.

A shaking body.

The wind and rain were blowing like crazy.

I could already feel the pressure on my legs and I knew it was too late to escape.

If we continue like this, not only my life but everyone on board the helicopter’s life will be in danger.

“—–!!”

When I raised my head, I saw the group stretching out their upper bodies as if they were going to come down.

Everyone was shouting something with earnest faces, as if they had absolutely no intention of giving up.

The only regret is that I can’t hear your voice because of the driving wind and rain.

I gritted my teeth and endured the pain in my legs as I spoke my last words to the group.

“Yebin and my older sister… … .”

widely!

And even though it was difficult, I forced myself to smile and completely let go of the foothold I was holding onto.

At the same time, my body began to sink downwards and I began to feel an irresistible sense of floating.

Fall down.

Fall down there.

The helicopter was moving further away, and the last blurry vision was swallowed by clouds.

At that moment, when death approached by the second, a kaleidoscope of events quickly passed before my eyes.

Strangely enough, the first thing I saw was Yebin and her older sister, who were happy to see me.

Close both eyes.

My consciousness was dragged deep into the abyss.
