The Kids I Saved Are Too Strong - Chapter 166



166 – non-closing gate-4

With Ha-yeon as the lead, the guards began entering the gate.

As soon as I entered the gate, even though the investigation had already been completed, I tried to enter directly, and I felt a great sense of tension in my body.

The people in front of me quickly dwindled, and soon my turn came.

‘You’ve already been there once. Don’t be too scared.’

Following the people who entered first, I entered the gate and saw a wide meadow and guards guarding the pre-arranged positions.

“All have entered!”

“Okay. Baek Yeon-ha, let’s scan the inside of the gate first.”

Swallowing manifested its ability.

“A lot of vital signs around, the approximate level is estimated to be D-class. The mana inside the gate is evenly distributed, so it is difficult to search long distances.”

“Can’t you feel the intense mana response?”

“No signal is picked up beyond a radius of 300m. The mana density is too high, so it doesn’t seem to be able to function properly.”

“It can’t be helped. For now, stay alert and catch the monsters around you.”

The monsters who said they had no interest in the gate were slowly approaching us as if they were interested in humans.

“Expand the scope of investigation after clearing all nearby monsters.”

“All right!”

The voice presumed to be Park Ji-hyun rang loudly.

At the same time, the guards began to move in an orderly fashion and began to deal with the monsters that approached them with a futile ease.

‘Excluding Hayeon and Yeonha, there are 4 A-class Awakeners and 4 B-class Awakeners, so they won’t struggle against monsters like this.’

I did not participate in the battle and stayed still.

Due to the nature of my combat using a pistol, a resource called ammunition is consumed.

My support is meaningful when you help me when I’m really busy. Even if I pack a gun when I’m relaxed like this, it’s just a waste of bullets.

“Baek Yeon-ha.”

“There are no additional monsters outside my detection range.”

“Then, it means that we can remove it as soon as we can see it.”

Hayeon waved her hand and all the standing monsters were cut off at once.

“From now on, I will be in charge of all monsters below grade C. Focus on investigation rather than dealing with monsters.”

“All right!”

As before, Park Ji-hyun’s loud voice was heard, and after changing into a formation for movement, they began to move slowly in a certain direction.

Even while moving, numerous monsters attacked us, but Ha-yeon’s power knocked them down before they even approached.

“Captain!”

“Why but?”

“Even if we move, my detection position remains the same. It is fixed at about 300m based on the gate we entered. It seems that beyond that range and before are separated in some way.”

“You mean that no more monsters come in and the space seems to be separated?”

“Yes, it is.”

“It’s unknown…”

A radius of 300m was not incredibly wide. As Ha-yeon sliced through all the monsters in sight while running all the way around, Yeon-ha was eventually able to deal with all the monsters within her detectable range.

“Certainly, it’s disconnected.”

He said knocking on the dark wall.

“I don’t think it’s going to be cut off easily with my Authority…”

“I don’t see any more biological reactions in this area.”

“You said you defeated all the monsters in the gate? So easily?”

My mind was blanked out by the exploration that ended so futile.

I didn’t want a difficult exploration, but at least I thought it would be harder and harder than it is now, but when Ha-yeon came forward and wiped out the monsters, they all died and it ended there?

‘It’s really nonsense.’

However, it was impossible to remain at the gate without any other threats, so under Ha-yeon’s command, we moved slowly and returned to the place where the gate was.

“Stop, stop.”

All the guards, including Ha-yeon, were surprised.

Next to the gate we came in, a different colored gate was open.

“The gate…? This is inside the gate.”

A younger voice full of questions hit my ears.

“Baek Yeon-ha, is this a precedent?”

“There is not.”

“Do you think it’s right to go in?”

“…I guess I have to go in. What makes this gate different from other gates is that it might come from an enemy gate.”

“I’ll go in first this time too. If I don’t come back in a minute after I enter, keep waiting.”

“I can’t!”

I screamed loudly without even realizing it, and everyone around me looked at me.

It was quite a burdensome look, but he said with patience to the gazes directed at me.

“The captain is our focal point. We can’t just wait for a captain like that!”

When I shouted confidently, the people around me followed my words as if they agreed.

“That’s right, Captain!

“you…”

Ha Yeon-yi let out a sigh with a moved expression.

Even though he was emotionally moved, he seemed to think that his judgment was correct if he thought rationally.

“Even if not everyone follows, let some of the people follow the captain!”

“hahahaha… Yeah, if I don’t come back for a minute or so, I won’t care who comes after me, as long as you guys make your own groups or do whatever you can to follow me.”

Ha-yeon threw herself at the gate with the last words.

– Wiing.

There was a small sound of sucking people in.

As I was looking at the gate with tension, worry, and concern, Ha-yeon came out to us.

“I think you can go in.”

“Yep!”

Everyone responded energetically and entered the gate in the same formation as before.

I went in once, but this time I had time to look around without being too nervous, but instead of the lush nature I had seen so far, a place with a sense of city appeared.

‘Is this a ruined city concept?’

Looking around, I saw that large buildings had been erected randomly, and some of them were partially destroyed and scattered on the ground.

“Everyone, don’t let your guard down. Baek Ha-yeon!”

“Bio signs are detected only within a range of 500 m. Most are D-class, but it is estimated that there is a B-class boss in the building over there.”

“Is it a boss-type gate?”

“It seems so.”

“I’ll get rid of all the others for now.”

She swung her hand like before, and the monsters around her also died.

However, Hayeon’s reaction was not the same as before. He frowned as if he was somehow awkward.

‘I can’t ask right now.’

She was the head of this expedition, so if it was something she thought she should talk about, she would have said it long ago.

“Baek Yeon-ha, didn’t you say there was a monster that was presumed to be a boss mob in that building?”

“Yes, in that building.”

Ha-yeon looked toward the building, only frowning.

‘Is there something strange?’

“Baek Yeon-ha, come here for a moment.”

When Yeon-ha moved to Ha-yeon, I also walked slowly, following my role of sticking close to Yeon-ha.

“Aren’t your abilities limited or something?”

“I don’t think there’s anything like that… Is your older sister’s authority limited?”

“Uh, I don’t know why, but since I came here, I can’t express my authority as naturally as usual. Although my magic power hasn’t decreased, it feels like the authority itself is being restricted.”

“Isn’t it dangerous? My sister is here at full power, but if her power is cut…”

“I don’t think it’s at a dangerous level yet. Although my powers are limited, I can still demonstrate abilities that far exceed A-rank, so even if the next gate appears, I’ll just have to see how much power I can exert within it and move on. “

Younger looked at Hayeon while crying.

“sister…”

“Don’t look at it like that. It’s not that there’s a problem with me. I definitely feel that the outside is oppressing me, so I’ll be fine when I go outside.”

While the two of them were talking, the A-class Awakeners and the B-class Awakeners stepped forward and cleaned up all the monsters around them.

It was because when they realized that there were no dangerous traps and only monsters, everyone was able to actively move.

It took less than 30 minutes to catch the monster that existed like a boss.

“Still, it must have been a C-class gate, but it was cleared so quickly…”

I heard someone muttering.

‘Because the people who came in are amazing.’

Even if it’s not Hayeon, there are many great awakened people.

After defeating the boss mob, a new gate opened again.

‘It finally opened…’

Again, Ha-yeon put her foot into the gate first.
