◈ 201. Smart Zombie (1)

It is now difficult to use the term global village any more.

The term global village used to mean that any place on Earth could be reached within 24 hours, but now only regional hubs can be reached by aircraft.

Unlike in the past when most cities had international flights, the number of airports operating international flights has decreased sharply.

Some countries have no international flights, so to get to those countries you have to go to the port or by car rather than by plane.

The world is gradually closing down.

“Afterwards, negotiations were made with Russia for a railway, which made it possible to travel by rail to Europe.”

“Isn’t it an island nation anymore?”

There are several reasons why passenger aircraft movement has become difficult, but the crash of a passenger aircraft caused by a person infected with the Haze virus during movement had a decisive impact.

The Haze virus outbreak that suddenly broke out attacked those around it.

If he had just been causing a ruckus, he would have been subdued by the crew or the men around him.

However, since it was clear that they would be infected with the virus if they were bitten in a situation where there was no vaccine or treatment, they did not try to approach the infected person.

Even in the United States, it has become a rule to kill those infected with the Haze virus.

Unfortunately, the interior of the aircraft became chaotic and the doors opened accidentally, causing the plane to crash.

Of course, this was not the reason for the sudden decline in aircraft numbers.

The biggest reason was the decline in customers due to the threat of the Haze virus.

As there was no use of airplanes like during the coronavirus pandemic, many airlines reduced flights or went bankrupt.

Another cause was the worsening economic situation caused by repeated disasters and catastrophes around the world.

Everyone is reducing their spending.

Still, humans had a romantic notion of traveling to unknown destinations and sought safer alternatives.

“When will we be able to travel to the continent by car?”

“Well, both Houqing and Russia are countries at war.”

“The Russian war is over there in Europe, the east doesn’t matter.”

“Well, that’s true, but.”

In the end, Russia forced Ukraine to surrender.

Although Russia suffered enormous damage, the size difference was huge from the beginning.

Of course, Russia eventually won the battle as the United States and Europe could no longer support Ukraine.

The global economic crisis has made it difficult to continue providing aid to Ukraine.

Russia, having defeated Ukraine, seemed to be taking a breather for a moment, but it was about to reveal its full-fledged ambitions in Eastern Europe.

Naturally, there was strong opposition from Europe, but the situation in Europe was not as good as expected.

First, as high temperatures in the Middle East and North Africa worsened, the number of immigrants flocking to Europe increased rapidly.

Of course, this was also due to the chaos caused by the Middle East war, including the war between Israel and Iran.

The whole world was caught up in the whirlwind of war, with Turkey’s conflict with Greece growing as well as Syria.

Although the United Nations tried its best to prevent such wars, it was already a powerless international organization.

War was already inevitable.

In a world where it was quicker to count the number of countries not at war with one another, travel might have been a luxury.

Although Korea was part of the free world, trade with China and Russia became essential for survival.

There was a risk that war would break out between China and Japan, and that maritime trade routes from the South China Sea to the south of Jeju Island would be virtually blocked.

Fortunately, neither China nor Japan attacked Korean ships, but there was no room for complacency.

As wars broke out all over the world, countless displaced persons and refugees were wandering around the world in search of safety.

Estimates put the number at as high as one billion, and it was thought that thousands to tens of thousands of people were dying from disease and starvation every day.

In the midst of all this, the disappearance of hundreds of people was not a major issue.

“I think the fog is too thick.”

“If you go a little further, you’ll find a place to rest. It’s difficult to rest here. Let’s go a little further.”

“Whew! But something feels a little creepy?”

“Isn’t it creepy wherever you are!”

“We’ll reach the village in a bit. Everyone, cheer up! Let’s just get there and rest!”

A group of people crossed an area of ​​thick fog.

After a while the fog cleared, but this group of refugees disappeared along with it.

It is not known where they disappeared to.

I was one of many refugees.

These refugee groups were disappearing all over the world, but no one cared.

Jincheol arrived in Australia, not Cheongya.

Upon arrival in Australia, Viscount Vincent, who was supposed to be in England, was there to greet us.

He used to be a gentleman with a classy air, but when I saw him in Australia, he gave off the impression of a well-trained military instructor.

Although he was not young anymore, his body, trained by marathon running, was still in good shape.

“Welcome, Chairman Kim.”

“How have you been, Your Highness?”

“I’ve been doing well,”

After exchanging greetings, Jincheol and Viscount Vincent got into a car and headed to a hotel.

Jae-woo was also by Jin-cheol’s side.

I found a way to weaken the power of Ruby’s curse, so I left it to Shinbi to control.

Of course, I didn’t know if this would strengthen the power of Ruby’s curse, but there was nothing I could do right now.

When we arrived at the hotel with Viscount Vincent, we could see an unusual atmosphere among the people.

They were all very large and had fierce eyes.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

“It’s okay. Trust me.”

Jincheol sighed at Viscount Vincent’s words.

Viscount Vincent passed his title and the position of head of the family to his eldest son.

People around him tried to dissuade him, saying that he was still young, but he was stubborn.

And he established PMC, a private military company, by mobilizing the assets he had.

As the world was in chaos due to war, private military companies and groups were emerging in countries around the world.

Some of them worked as mercenaries under contract with the government, but some were created as private military organizations for the wealthy to protect themselves after the collapse of the world.

Those who had lost their jobs or quit, such as retired military personnel or police officers, were hired by these private organizations to perform relatively safe security duties away from the battlefield.

Of course, Viscount Vincent promised a higher salary than other PMCs.

‘That alone is difficult to accept.’

Soon a man approached.

“You said there was a cure?”

“Hansen!”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but I must make sure that everything is correct.”

A man named Hansen immediately asked if there was a cure.

Jincheol was able to realize how he was able to secure them.

“Whew! Did you get sick?”

“Not yet.”

“That’s fortunate.”

Being bitten by the Haze virus does not immediately cause the disease.

Of course, there were cases of infection and symptoms developing within 48 hours due to new mutations.

There, they eventually discovered the abnormal symptoms of the latent state of the Haze virus.

Although they did not find the hidden virus, they did find changes inside the body that occur due to viral infection.

Of course, it couldn’t be detected with a simple test, but the rich were using this test to check for infection.

The discovery was said to be thanks to highly advanced AI.

But there was no solution without a cure or vaccine, and even high-performance AI was unable to create a cure or vaccine.

Because of this, researchers went so far as to say that the Haze virus was God’s punishment to destroy humanity.

The Haze virus was a disease that destroyed human relationships more than its own power.

The mercenary group hired by Viscount Vincent was comprised of people who were infected with the Haze Virus or were suspected of being infected by the Haze Virus themselves, their families, or their acquaintances.

For them, they have to find a cure somehow before the outbreak.

“Whew! You have to risk your life.”

“Damn it! I would have risked my life already! A cure! I would do anything to get a cure.”

Jincheol eventually opened the door that leads from dusk to dawn to the mercenaries who were prepared to die.

Inside the massive warehouse building prepared by Viscount Vincent, there was a large quantity of weapons.

There were also trucks transporting various supplies as well as weapons.

“Are you sure it’s okay?”

“It’s a job to save the world. It requires some sacrifice.”

Viscount Vincent, who saved his second son, seemed to believe that finding a cure and vaccine in the lost world was his final mission.

Viscount Vincent and his mercenaries had plans to establish an outpost on the Lost World.

I was able to obtain the cure by catching ten thousand zombies, but I was unable to create the ingredients for the cure, so I had to hunt zombies every time to obtain the cure.

Although it was not possible to confirm the exact number, there were predictions that the number of carriers of the HAZ virus could exceed 1 million.

And this number of carriers continued to increase.

“Then let’s go! This is your last chance. If you want to give up, give up now!”

No one gave up.

Some people risk their lives to save a loved one, while others risk their lives for money.

Everyone was wearing military uniforms, but they were somewhat different from regular military uniforms.

They were wearing armor made of ceramic that was as light as armor, but impenetrable by anything like teeth.

The joint areas where mobility is important were also covered with non-tearable fibers such as carbon fiber.

At least it reduces the chances of getting infected by a zombie bite.

“Zombies die if you pierce their heads. So aim for the heads! Ceramic armor is impervious to zombie teeth or contaminated claws, so there’s no need to be afraid!”

Even the eyes and mouth were thoroughly protected, as the zombie’s contaminated blood could enter through the mucous membranes.

The mercenaries, fully armed and confident, headed towards the lost world.

Of course, everyone was prepared, but as soon as they entered the Red-tier Lost World, they could feel that something was wrong.

“Hey…here?”

“What a fucking place.”

“Everyone shut your mouths! Let’s move right now!”

First, we had to find a suitable forward base.

We have already decided on a place that can be used as a forward base to some extent.

It was an abandoned military base.

Dozens of mercenaries headed straight to the abandoned military base under the guidance of Jincheol and Viscount Vincent, and soon encountered zombies.

It was necessary to be as quiet as possible, as noise would attract zombies, but with dozens of vehicles already moving around, noise was inevitable.

bang!

The zombie’s head was precisely smashed.

I hunted zombies without hesitation, knowing that I had to kill as many zombies as possible to obtain the cure.

The mercenaries arrived at an abandoned military facility and unilaterally slaughtered the zombies on the outskirts. They immediately checked the inside of the military facility and eliminated the zombies.

After the zombie extermination was over, they started fortifying the military base without resting.

It was a race against time.

The zombies would soon arrive, so we had to complete our defense base.

Heavy equipment was deployed in various places, and powerful firepower equipment such as mortars began to be deployed.

There were also unknown weapons remaining within the military base, but there was no way to identify them yet.

Then, zombies came rushing in and the mercenaries engaged in a fierce battle.
