My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me - My Abandoned Disciples Came to Me chapter 54

53. Hostage Idol, Joo-Won Choi Arrives at the Broadcasting Station

-Hwieeeing

When Shim Ji-hyeok used the Dark Artifact, a black mist began to spread over the area.

“What… What! It’s a surprise!”

In an instant, the personnel inside activated the defense artifact.

-Giying

However, the defensive artifact made a strange noise and stopped working.

“What! What’s going on, report the situation!”

“Defense Artifact is not functioning because it has been interfered with by external demons!”

“Then, deploy at least a defensive magic centering on the internal data right now!”

The office where station main data artifacts are stored. Those in charge of security there began to move quickly.

Shim Ji-hyeok looked at it and admired the power of the artifact he used.

‘This… This… Is ridiculous, isn’t it?…’

His artifact was received from Shin Yura. Since he has to consume life force when using it, he has never even used it as a demonstration test. However, when he actually operated it, the power was enormous.

[Darkness] Herake’s Poison Fog

– When activated, it scatters dense demonic energy around it.

– Artifacts exposed to Magi have great limitations on their use.

– If exposed to demonic energy for a long time, it causes demonic poisoning status.

– Allows the user to handle demons for a certain period of time.

– Depending on the amount of magic used, the vitality decreases.

Hereke’s poison mist. The use of this Dark Artifact is very simple.

If you just pour mana into the artifact, demonic energy will automatically start pouring out of the small lion-shaped artifact. Also, it allows the user to directly use magic. In a way, it has a different effect from the Dark Artifact that Baekjuseok used before. Of course, since it was a dark artifact, it was the same that the more you use it, the more your life force is consumed.

-Push Hee Hee

A fog composed of demons around it. The magic fog begins to spread. Suddenly, the inside was filled with magic fog, making it impossible to see.

The internal personnel were tenaciously defending themselves.

“Keugh… Everyone, don’t breathe. From the moment you inhale the fog, mana management is disrupted. It’s not a normal fog!”

When the general public is exposed to magi for a long time, not only vomiting and abdominal pain, but also brain nerves begin to become paralyzed, and eventually the cells of the whole body rot and die.

Shim Ji-hyeok started running towards the people who were in pain.

-Tadadak

-Tup

Then, Shim Ji-hyeok grabbed the head of one of his men who was guarding inside him. And he picked it up and threw it away.

-Hwiik

-Quaaang-!

Shim Ji-hyeok, whose whole body has been strengthened with Magi, has the supernatural power to easily blow away at least one adult man with his two fingers.

“This… This is my power?…”

Shim Ji-hyeok looked at his hand that had just blown the person away. Shim Ji-hyeok’s hands trembled.

Of course, Shim Ji-hyeok knows. That Magi takes life force. But apart from that, he felt insanely fulfilled.

‘Did the Archmage have this much power?’

Shim Ji-hyeok was intoxicated with the demonic energy exploding from within, and he felt as if he had become a god.

“Kyaaa!”

Shim Ji-hyeok picked up a person’s head and threw it, and when the sound of a bomb exploded, everyone in the vicinity started to run away.

Some of them tried to defend themselves, but they were poisoned by demonic energy due to wrong breathing, and some of them were killed by Shim Ji-hyeok’s attack.

– Blame

Sim Ji-hyeok, who killed several people, becomes a fog made of demons again. He quickly picked up a life response in the magic fog and moved towards it.

-Tup

And then, I picked up a man who was running away and talked to him.

“Tell me the exact location where the station main data artifact is located.”

All Shim Ji-hyeok knew was that a main data artifact existed near this office. Its exact location is known only to those who work here.

The man caught by Sim Ji-hyeok did not pretend to be as he had been taught.

“I don’t know… I don’t know. I really don’t know. This information is unknown at my rank.”

However, Shim Ji-hyeok is currently in a state where all of his body senses are extremely strengthened by using magic.

I sensed the man’s slight hesitation.

“Why did you hesitate to answer? If you really don’t know, you should just answer.”

“I… I’m nervous. I… Please save me.”

But Shim Ji-hyeok didn’t believe it right away.

-Tadadadadadak

Shim Ji-hyeok ran wildly, holding his man in one hand. And he grabbed the neck of another employee who was running away.

-Tup

And then, I talked while looking at the man who had endured without answering earlier.

“If you know, you’d better answer. If you can’t.”

-Koo woo woo wook

When Shim Ji-hyeok gave strength to his other hand, the person in his hand collapsed with dog foam in his mouth.

“Rurrr…”

The man who saw the person dying right in front of her, biting into dog foam, made her feel extremely terrified that he might end up like that.

“F… Save me… Please… I’ll tell you, just save my life…”

Shim Ji-hyeok nodded his head as if to say something, and the man pointed to the floor.

“It’s stored there on the floor right under the desk.”

“What is a security device?”

“Even… Pupil recognition.”

“Hmm… Can I pluck out your eyes and put them to you?”

Shim Ji-hyeok was gradually doing things that people shouldn’t do. He was addicted to Magi and was losing his humanity. Those who forcibly borrow magic power through the Dark Artifact suffer from these side effects. Like Baekseok, who blew away Meteor in the middle of the city, he quickly loses his humanity and judgment. Even the feeling of guilt.

“I… Take me. It won’t open if you put your eyes on it. You have to enter a password, a password that only we know.”

At some point, few people were left inside the office.

For reference, the basement office of the broadcasting station is kept completely sealed inside for security, and air circulation is replaced with artifacts.

This closedness, on the contrary, made people more quickly exposed to demons now, and increased the risk of the artifact Shim Ji-hyeok used.

-Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep

When the employee caught by Sim Ji-hyeok opened the hidden part under the desk, the pupil recognition device came out.

“Do it quickly before the artifact breaks. If it doesn’t open, I’ll break your head in no time.”

“Ah… I see.”

The man quickly entered his password and recognized his pupil before the artifact that had just been exposed in a vacuum was contaminated by demonic air.

– Recognizing.

– Please perform user verification and mana injection for identity verification.

Then Shim Ji-hyeok shouted in annoyance.

“What the f*ck, there are so many certifications! Do it quickly, you f*cking bastard!”

“It’s done… It’s done…!”

After the man unlocked all the locks, one last giant lock came out, with two eye icons engraved in the center of the lock.

“This… Just turn off this and that’s it. Two employees here have to bring one eye at a time to authenticate. It’s a device to prevent individuals from using it alone…”

Sim Ji-hyeok picked up the man he had killed earlier, lifted his eyelids, and forcibly proceeded with recognition.

– Authentication completed, data is opened.

After going through complicated authentication, the main database was opened.

However, Shim Ji-hyeok could not recognize it because all the data was encrypted. He ordered the trembling man.

“Find a place where news reports from broadcasting stations are gathered and access it.”

“That…That’s…”

-Quad Deuk

When the man hesitated, Shim Ji-hyeok broke one of his legs.

The man let out a terrible scream and spoke with tears in his eyes.

“De… Let me go… So please…”

After he complicatedly manipulated it a few times, informational mails began to emerge one by one.

Among them, there was one thing that caught Shim Ji-hyeok’s attention.

[Title: Reporting the video of the masked instructor’s forced entry into the black gate]

At the bottom of the report video, there was a special note.

Special note: NATUBE large-scale creator Jang Hye-na. Possibility of false information is low.

-Kadudeuk

Shim Ji-hyeok finally found out the identity of the informant.

-Tadadak

Sim Ji-hyeok quickly left the office. Of course, while still holding the man in his hand.

‘This kid should be used as a hostage.’

No matter how dark artifacts are used, security agents including hunters and wizards will soon come. It is impossible to deal with them alone. So he decided to use hostages to get out of here.

-Tadadadadak

I ran quickly and reached the ground stage.

At that time, I heard the voice of another man shouting using the amplification artifact in the distance.

“Shim Ji-hyeok, stop the fuss and surrender immediately or I will shoot you.”

Shim Ji-hyeok shouted as he lifted his man in his hand.

“I’m holding a hostage. If you don’t care if this bastard dies, feel free to attack me.”

Shim Ji-hyeok giggled.

The moment the wizards on the other side hesitated, unable to bear the attack.

“Grumble…”

At that time, a strange sound came from the front.

‘F*ck…’

The hostage Shim Ji-hyeok was holding died from Magi poisoning. It must have been because I had stayed too long in his office earlier.

‘For some reason, I thought I had been alive for a long time… Now…’

At that time, the loudspeaker sounded again.

“Shim Ji-hyeok shot and killed the hostages. Attack all at once!”

-Quaaang-!

-Kwaaang-!

In an instant, numerous magics are pouring down on Shim Ji-hyeok. Shim Ji-hyuk broke down the wall to escape.

-Quaaang-!

“aaa”

The location where Shim Ji-hyeok was was at the back of the stage at the concert hall. As he came out through the wall, he saw an idol hurriedly finishing the performance and preparing to evacuate. Perhaps, it seemed that the evacuation order had just been issued.

“Who… Who are you?”

Idol, who was trying to evacuate after arranging the stage, looked at Shim Ji-hyeok with embarrassed eyes.

Shim Ji-hyeok grinned and held her head with one hand and shouted.

“I’m a hostage! If you don’t want to see this bitch die, open the way now!”

Meanwhile, Choi Joo-won arrived at the broadcasting station.

“aaa”

When Choi Joo-won arrived at the station, she saw people fleeing to Honbibaeksan Mountain, and she sensed that something unusual was happening.

‘What the f*ck… What the hell is going on?’

Choi Joo-won hurriedly ran inside.
