Episode 145: The survival method of those with good instincts
Number 49 had a good feel.
It was thanks to his exceptional sense that he was able to survive until now even though he did not have outstanding combat skills.
That feeling was screaming now.
Avoid it.
He believed number 17. But regardless of that, I felt like I had to avoid it right away.
Number 49 did what his instincts told him to do and avoided it.
Wow.
There was a loud noise. The tree branch swung by Cheon Do-un split the rock wall with just that wind.
Instead of stopping at the rock wall, the wave split in half and then closed.
Number 49’s mouth widened when he saw that.
“buy… “Didn’t you say you were going to hit me gently?”
“I hit it gently.”
Where are you going? I wanted to argue like that, but No. 49 kept his mouth shut. Looking at Cheon Do-un’s expression, what he just said is sincere.
In fact, Cheon Do-un relaxed and hit him. In the first place, how hard can you hit with this small branch?
However, what he did not expect was that the branches of the World Tree resonated with the power of Cheondoun.
As a result, explosive power, not healing power, emerged.
“I thought the World Tree was a symbol of peaceful power. “This is also possible.”
Cheon Do-un nodded as if he had learned something new.
Number 49, watching this, was just in a cold sweat.
Cheon Do-un swung the branch in the air a few times.
“good. let’s try again.”
“All over again?”
“uh. I got the idea. “I think I can do it now.”
Is it really true? I was anxious, but there was nothing I could do.
The opponent is Cheon Do-woon. He is the one who saved his life once. In that case, it was okay to entrust your life to it at least once.
It felt like I had already used it a little while ago, but I guess it was just my mood. Number 49 took a deep breath and nodded.
“Okay then, please be really gentle this time.”
Number 49 closed his eyes again. Next to him, Dodak waved his arms and cheered for Cheon Do-un.
Cheon Do-un swung a tree branch at No. 49’s forehead.
Gently. Yeah, I hope it feels like this.
Sigh. There was a light crackling sound. But the aftermath could not be ignored.
‘Ugh… What is this… !’
The moment the branch of the World Tree hit 49 times my forehead, memories of my childhood buried in the abyss exploded.
* * *
The first thing that came to mind was the memory of the day I first saw Cheon Do-un.
In other words, what happened on the day I was kidnapped and brought to the laboratory.
That was also the day when Cheon Do-woon hit the researcher’s shin with a stone.
[saw? I broke the kidnapper’s leg with a stone!]
Cheon Do-un was not called a fool from the beginning.
In the beginning, some children found his actions refreshing. There were also children who regarded him as a hero.
[I want to be like that too!]
There is even a child who says something like that.
Researchers and instructors did not welcome that atmosphere.
If they continue like this, they will look down on themselves. It will become difficult to control the test subjects.
[Discipline must be corrected.]
[how?]
[#17 Let’s use that guy as an example. This shows what happens if you act carelessly.]
The researchers gathered the children in the lobby.
[Everyone sit on the floor!]
The children sat staring at the coercive attitude.
There are several suspicious-looking syringes on the table in front.
[For number 17, come out and sit here.]
The researcher tapped the chair and said. When Cheon Do-un went out and sat down, the children’s expressions hardened.
Even though I’m young, I know this. As I lived on the streets as an orphan, there were times when I was more astute than adults in reading the atmosphere.
That was the case now.
This is revenge for stoning the researcher’s leg. I’m trying to show what happens if you fight back.
As Cheon Do-un sat down on the chair, the researcher held up a syringe.
[You will all receive this injection. Of course, all medications are different. Dangerous drugs and safe drugs. Which medicine you will receive depends on your actions.]
The researcher looked at Cheon Do-un and smiled.
[This guy will be injected with the highest risk drug. You all know why, right?]
Already on the first day we came here, the detonation spell was engraved on everyone’s bodies.
If I refused the injection, the spell would be activated, so I had no choice but to follow it.
[If you don’t listen, this will happen to you too. Watch carefully to see what changes occur!]
The researcher injected Cheon Do-un’s arm.
All the medicines brought here were failures. I brought only those drugs on purpose.
‘You will soon feel a huge chill. As cold sweat flows like rain… .’
It didn’t flow.
‘I’m rolling on the floor while convulsing…’ !’
It didn’t roll.
‘Well, I’m foaming at the mouth and my consciousness is clouded…’ !’
It was not cloudy. The researcher was taken aback by the clear-eyed madman staring at him.
Something is strange. The researchers began exchanging words with glances.
‘What happened. ‘Do you think that medicine will work well for number 17?’
‘It’s strange. It’s a medicine I was thinking of disposing of… ‘Is this true for anyone?’
‘Let’s investigate later. First, try injecting the next medicine.’
One person gestured to another syringe.
[Hmm… Well, then we will now inject the second dose. Everyone, look straight ahead!]
The researcher administered the second injection to Cheon Do-un’s arm.
He smiled in remorse.
This time, I deliberately brought a drug that causes significant changes in appearance.
I thought it would be better to have a big visual change to scare children.
‘The skin will soon turn over and the scales will… !’
It didn’t come out.
‘As the teeth grow in a zigzag shape… !’
didn’t grow up
‘What about the horns? ‘You need to grow horns!’
didn’t grow up Why on earth is there no change?
At this point, the children who had been looking at me with scared expressions also turned sour.
[What are they injecting?]
[I don’t know. Isn’t it like a flu shot or something? [It’s winter.]
Kind people who kidnap orphans and vaccinate them.
Although it was only a moment, the researcher looked like that in the children’s eyes.
The researchers were so embarrassed that they couldn’t hear the whispers.
[That’s strange. It should be rolling on the floor by now… Ugh!]
One of the researchers’ mouth dropped open when he saw the machine readings attached to Cheon Do-un’s body.
-Fusion rate: 100%
The fusion rate for the first drug was 100%.
The numbers for the second drug were also rising rapidly.
-Cell transplant fusion: 65%… 72%… 88%… 92%… .
-Fusion rate: 100%
[This is ridiculous!]
The mood of the researchers changed. The thought of punishing Cheon Do-un was lost in favor of intellectual curiosity.
[I have to report this to the director!]
The researchers rushed out with excited faces.
When the organizers left, only the instructors, who had been setting the tone with their guns, burst into laughter.
‘What is this? If we leave like this, won’t we only end up looking funny?’
We can’t leave it like that. One of the instructors loaded the gun.
Let’s at least shoot him in the leg. The moment I thought that, I made eye contact with Cheon Do-un.
In Cheon Do-un’s hand, there was a syringe filled with a dark liquid. It was the third injection left behind by the researchers.
When on earth did I pick that up? No, that doesn’t matter.
All you have to do is pull the trigger. What can I do with that syringe?
That’s what I thought, but he was already losing momentum. The strange eerieness made my hair stand on end.
‘Well, come to think of it, you said the cells you injected earlier have already fused.’
So, is this ominous feeling the energy of a monster?
‘If fusion is complete, your physical abilities will have already increased.’
The moment you fire the gun, it will rush at you. Is there any reason to take that risk?
[what… What are you just looking at! Everyone go back to your room!]
The instructor shouted at the reluctant children.
[You go to your room too.]
I also instructed Cheon Do-un to go to his room.
[Give me that injection.]
[no.]
[what?]
[You tried to shoot me, man.]
The instructor’s shoulders trembled.
[So I guess I should hold something too.]
Cheon Do-un stared at the instructor’s face.
[I’ll remember that.]
Don’t remember. The instructor wanted to say that.
He was a mercenary who had fought through numerous wars. As such, the sense that his life or death was at stake was excellent.
That feeling was speaking now.
Avoid it.
I especially felt like I shouldn’t get involved with that kid.
‘When I feel like this, I feel like I’m going crazy… ‘I can’t stay that long.’
The instructor thought while looking at Cheon Do-un.
Only one day of work. I will be criticized by the person who introduced this place, but I have to stop.
The instructor decided to follow his intuition and left the lab that night.
* * *
What happened that day left a strong impression on me.
In some ways, it’s not a big deal. But he was only 6 years old at the time and his luck seemed amazing.
[I can’t believe you didn’t cry even after getting the injection. awesome!]
That was from the perspective of a 6-year-old child.
It seemed amazing that he didn’t lose in a fight with the instructor.
Number 49 chuckled as he remembered his childhood.
‘By the way, 17… no. ‘How did you become friends with Cheon Do-un?’
If you look back on your memories, that opportunity will come out. He scanned his memories.
6 years old, 7 years old, 8 years old… .
No matter how much time passed, Cheon Do-un did not appear in his memory. It means there was no point of contact.
Instead, an interesting memory occurred to me.
[hey. The researcher dropped this, so I brought it back.]
The 10-year-old took out a small pill bottle from his pocket.
My roommate was excited when he saw it.
[it’s crazy? That’s something the researcher cherished. I heard it was very precious. If we get caught, we both die!]
[You don’t have to get caught. It’s unfair that we are the only ones suffering. Fuck this.]
He chuckled and pushed the bed to the side.
There were cracks and grooves in the building. I put the medicine bottle in it and moved the bed back to cover it.
[Won’t it take?]
[It won’t catch. He left without even knowing he had dropped it. You won’t even know where you lost it. It’s a CCTV blind spot there.]
A childhood memory that I had long since forgotten. What did she pick up and hide?
I don’t know what it was, but it was moving around in the bottle.
It is not a living thing. That’s for sure, but there was movement nonetheless.
‘Do you still want to be there now?’
Or maybe someone found it and took it already. If I had the chance, I wanted to go and check it out.
‘That’s strange, by the way. Aren’t you friendly with Cheon Do-un? There is no contact at all.’
When number 49 felt doubtful, Cheon Do-un finally appeared in his memory.
Himself hiding in the corner of the hallway holding a hatchet.
It was the day I swung the ax at Cheon Do-un.
The ax was swung. He was robbed of it.
What followed was the sound of constant thrashing.
Number 49’s face grew tired as the memories came to mind one by one.
Even though I knew that this was only in my memory, I broke into a cold sweat.
‘mind… right. ‘I did.’
I remembered.
‘We weren’t close.’
Instead of being friendly, I got beaten up excitedly.
Number 49, who remembered everything, laughed.
My good friend number 17.
There was no such thing. The only thing that existed was idiot number 17.
‘Well, you still helped me.’
Number 17, there are times when you can be nice.
There are a lot of modifiers in front of us, but we are friends anyway.
After that thought, 49 times my consciousness sank.
* * *
“You passed out? “I didn’t hit it hard.”
Cheon Do-un looked at Number 49, who was drooping. When he hit Takbam with a branch of the World Tree, Number 49 lost consciousness and passed over.
That was just a few seconds ago.
Number 49’s glance at the past was actually a short period of time, less than a minute.
-Help, hehe!
When he fainted, Dodak jumped in place. It was a victory dance celebrating the victory of the compatriots.
-Huh!
“okay. I know how you feel, so stop dancing. “You’re tired now.”
Cheon Do-un picked up Dodaki and put it in his bag.
Dodak stuck out his head and shook the leaves.
I was tired, but I couldn’t sleep on such a happy day.
We had to shake the leaves to cheer up the helper who succeeded in revenge.
