How to Live Immortally Episode 306

306 That’s right

“X, I confirmed that the actor that the Sword Master Yanghu was using was broken. It seems like a lot of things happened while I was away. Thank you for your hard work.”

Even though I was in a hurry, I felt like I had seen everything there was to see. It was fortunate that I had less time to explain in detail. If the conversation had been prolonged, it would have only increased the contradictions.

Jin-Geon glances down at Ga-On, who is completely battered, and continues speaking.

“… … It was unexpected that Ryoichi escaped.”

“Shedding? Judging by the fact that there’s even a dedicated word for it, I guess that’s the true form of the metahuman that the Emergency Disaster Response Team is on alert for?”

Gaon asked as if he was interrogating, but Jin-geon did not answer. Ryoichi, who had grabbed onto the cliff located halfway up the mountain, roared as if to make his presence known.

“I’ll explain in detail later. Saving Ryoichi is the priority.”

“I’ll tell you in advance, that guy’s superpower isn’t his clone… … .”

“Yes. It looks like a speedster, especially an acceleration type.”

As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, Ryoichi’s gaze turned this way.

“Please leave the rest to ‘us.’ Dealing with ‘that kind of thing’ is the responsibility of the Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Team.”

“Don’t you have to capture him?”

“I may have mentioned this, but the rule is to dispose of infected people immediately unless there is something special to be gained from them.”

The moment Ryoichi rolls his foot, the distance of hundreds of meters becomes zero. In a moment that an ordinary person would not even realize―Jin-Geon opens his closed eyes.

“Even more so if it goes beyond stage 4.”

The overlapping pupils, like a kaleidoscope, draw a series of concentric circles.

The eye that watched the front was the Eye of Mimir, a unit that went beyond predicting actions to foresee the future.

Evidence of miracles achieved by human hands, containing the essence of science and technology.

What Jin-Geon saw was a future 0.5 seconds away, a glimpse of a world that would never come.

Even if you are the master of acceleration―

Boom!

If you can see it in advance, it’s not difficult to deal with it.

“Another non-believer.”

“I am the victim who almost died because of you. Have you already forgotten?”

“Ah, I remember. Infidels, infidels, infidels!”

“You’re not in your right mind.”

Jin-Geon leisurely avoids the shooting blast and gains some distance.

Ryoichi had grown rapidly and now boasted a height of 4 meters. Jin-Geon, who was of average build, was no match for him.

It could be said that it was truly a battle between David and Goliath.

Furthermore, the Eye of Mimir cannot be used indefinitely. Considering the overheating of the built-in slot, the remaining time is only 3 minutes.

He didn’t have time to waste time throwing stones, but that wasn’t a surefire way to win.

Because now is the space age, not the Paleolithic Age.

In the 24th century, David borrowed the power of civilization.

“This is Mimir. Confirmation of the 21st escapee. Requesting permission to use Aries.”

After the dry report, numerous holograms suddenly appear in front of Jin-Geon and then disappear. Countless procedures are omitted, and decisions are made in an instant.

[45% limit lifted. Approval complete]

The moment permission was granted, Ryoichi stood there with his arms spread wide.

There was no way Ryoichi would miss his prey that had exposed its weakness without defense.

No one can keep up with him as he accelerates―

Ryoichi ran without hesitation as if he could even turn back the flow of time, but the moment Jin-Geon stretched out his arm into the empty air and clenched his fist, the whole situation changed.

Because Ryoichi’s movements stopped right in front of me.

As if caught by an invisible hand.

“Krrrrrr.”

Ryoichi seemed to have forgotten the words, and just instinctively growled.

What restrained his actions was―

‘artificial satellite?’

The exact temperature could not be determined. However, it could be inferred by looking at the radio waves that leaked out from the tip of Jin-Geon’s head and reached the ends of the sky.

In a modern society where meaningless electromagnetic waves are rampant, wouldn’t facilities outside the planet be fixed?

The key to quickly subduing metahumans is to use high-performance units that receive power comparable to that of a large army from satellites that are always on standby in orbit.

Wireless power transmission technology that can reach tens of kilometers and suppression technology that can capture the ankles of level 5 metahumans without a trace.

Either way, it was over-technology that was several generations ahead.

Should we call it the true civilization of mankind?

but-

‘Not enough firepower.’

“Irai, now is the time.”

Gaon made an objective judgment and Jin Geon gave instructions almost simultaneously.

A pure white aurora spread across the entire 28th district. Gaon couldn’t help but shiver at the faint smell of ozone that passed by his nose.

‘Destroyer?’

A destruction beam that guarantees operational capabilities equivalent to MUG-7. It’s not exactly the same, but the essence is the same.

It was a weapon used in space warfare.

A weapon designed to penetrate armor capable of withstanding light-speed travel could not be less powerful.

Kookbang!

“Ugh!”

Even if Ryoichi had given up on humanity.

It seemed like he was trying to avoid fatal damage by partially using acceleration on the injured area, but it was impossible to resist the shelling coming from anywhere.

A hole is created in the aurora borealis that decorates the night sky.

But as if that weren’t enough, the speaker continued.

Even though it is an ion cannon, it is extremely affected by gravity and magnetic fields, and the point-of-effect is achieved in millimeter units. Perhaps Jin-Geon himself is the observer and is sending location information.

‘This is the power of the emergency disaster response team.’

Ryoichi, who was hit by the space battleship’s blow with his bare body without being able to put up any resistance, was left to struggle somewhere between the pieces of meat and burning garbage.

Eventually, Ryoichi, who had become no different from a cow caught in a butcher shop, musters up the last of his strength and shouts.

“You ignorant sinners who are obsessed with blasphemy and erasing the miracles of God right before your eyes! You will pay the price for your sins one day!”

Gaon, who was quietly watching Ryoichi crumble to ashes, snickered.

I’m dying―

“That’s a pointless joke.”

* * *

It wasn’t surprising that Ryoichi left the stage in a more modest manner than his flashy entrance.

The moment the emergency disaster response team intervened, it was a foregone conclusion. If the city government had been helpless against the sword it had sharpened, wouldn’t that have been shocking in its own right?

what-

‘It’s not called the Emergency Disaster Response Team for nothing.’

The proof is that no matter how many times you think about it, you still can’t figure out the means.

At that time, I secretly looked into the mandala, but I couldn’t clearly determine the principle of what kind of technology was applied to Jin Geon. I only vaguely recognized that something like a particle came and went.

We should place importance on the fact that we have seen Jin Geon’s pattern.

Of course, that doesn’t mean there was no gain at all. We were able to collect some of Ryoichi’s blood.

Although it was a small sample, it would be of great help to the ongoing research on Nectar.

As it involved metahumans, it was only natural that the entire incident was kept secret. The mysterious beam of light that cut through the entire area was also an extension of that.

Only two days have passed, but not a single person has mentioned it. It’s as if they wanted to emphasize that it never happened.

This also created an unexpected windfall.

The comprehensive information control to cover up the tragedy that occurred in District 28 even obliterated the civil war that was taking place within the Miyauchi-gumi.

By now, it was widely believed that the street fires were committed by a drug-addled street gang.

The Miyauchi-gumi, who had taken temporary shelter in a safe house not far from Takeya Castle, were quickly and systematically cleaning up the interior.

and-

“First of all, I would like to say thank you.”

At the center of it all was Alice.

Gaon opened her mouth as she looked at her device.

“I see Noah has released what he set in stone. What’s the elimination code?”

“It seems like Blanca took over temporarily. It disappeared as soon as she died.”

“That’s fortunate.”

As the saying goes, seeing is believing, and now that Ryoichi’s misdeeds have been revealed, even if there is no active explanation, the suspicions surrounding Alice will inevitably disappear.

The first thing she ordered after immediately taking charge of her crew was to provide support to the people. Blanca was the one who caused the commotion, but she felt a sense of moral responsibility and opened the warehouse.

“So what is Miyauchi-gumi’s future policy?”

The then leader, Hoya, died without leaving behind a successor.

If we investigate, we will find out how many biological children he has, but he will probably be living a life isolated from the other world.

There were many difficulties in bringing them in and educating them and supporting them just because they were blood relatives. So―

“We have agreed that I will be the leader temporarily.”

Although it didn’t change the fact that Alice was a criminal within the Miyauchi-gumi, it didn’t mean that she had no power.

In other times, even that small amount of power would have been checked by Shinkoukai, but now there was no one to do so.

It wasn’t that Ryoichi’s true identity was revealed, but that he simply lost the drive to continue. All of the executives who had real power were gone at X’s hands.

In addition, as it was revealed that the members who aimed their guns at the police were from Goksol, Aris’ influence could not help but grow stronger.

In the current situation, there was no one other than her who could control them.

It was even better that Gaon was the only one who had collected all the information about the Insanity Project from the secret base.

“Even if we deal with them soon, the number won’t be small, right?”

“Kenji decided to help.”

Only then does Kenji, who has been sitting there with a blank expression on his face just a moment ago, come into view.

“I’m talking about Mr. Genji, who was knocked out in the fight with Ryoichi.”

When I make a suspicious expression, Kenji bares his fangs.

“It’s noisy. If I hadn’t risked my life to catch it, I would have missed it at the last minute.”

“I admit that.”

Even putting a spoon in is a skill. And it would have been better for Alice to have at least one more confidant by her side.

It is a time when the corrupt officials themselves are being eliminated all at once and when reforming the constitution is essential. With power concentrated in the center to an unusual degree, there is no better time to restore power.

“That went well.”

If she takes off her temporary name tag and becomes the official leader, the organizational culture of using children for fighting will subside as she wishes.

“It’s all thanks to Gaon.”
