But then, the sound of a shell being fired was heard.
pop!
I didn’t know they would shoot straight from the lifeboat like this, but Elder Kim must have been in a hurry.
I’ve fired ten shots including this one, so now I have two more to take out the shield.
That’s why I’m in a hurry now.
I hurriedly jumped up onto the deck and checked the shield first.
The shield had retreated almost to the apartment, but was still holding on.
I raised both arms and made a circle.
It was a sign that the ark had been taken over.
I reported to Bomi, so next I need to check the port.
When I turned my head, I saw a cannon perched precariously on top of a rubber boat.
The rubber boat was large for a lifeboat, but the weight of the gun and the long barrel made it look as cumbersome as an overloaded truck.
As if to show how important it is to comply with the payload, the rubber boat was engulfed in the aftermath of the launch.
The gun circled around to the other side of the apartment, and the sailors held on to it with all their might, lest it fall into the sea.
The rubber boat also rocked back and forth as if it might capsize.
“Damn it! Get your balance right. I still need to fire two more shots to completely take down the shield.”
Elder Kim’s voice was heard getting angry.
The sailors rowed the ship in all directions, following the instructions of the chief mate, who wore a sailor’s cap.
Then, little by little, the rubber boat regained its balance.
Once the raft is stable, Elder Kim will fire again, whether the raft capsizes or not.
I jumped into the water and swam to the inflatable boat.
The sailors on the rubber boat were so busy maintaining their balance that they didn’t notice me approaching.
But I couldn’t just stick my head above the water, so I dived into the water and brought only my ear close to the surface.
The vibrations of the sounds above the water echoed as if I was wearing bone conduction earphones.
Elder Kim’s voice was heard.
“Who will be the one to receive the holy martyrdom? The competition will be fierce, so first come first served.”
Contrary to Elder Kim’s expectations, no one answered.
“What, don’t you all want to go to the Ark of Heaven? It’s a place of eternal life filled with fresh water, where you can swim through the water as if you were floating through space… … .”
Elder Kim gave a long-winded description of the Ark of Heaven, as if encouraging martyrdom.
But perhaps because the explanation didn’t seem all that appealing, no one came forward.
“And can you still call yourself a passionate warrior of the missionary group?”
“That’s… Elder Kim.”
At Elder Kim’s scolding, Captain Jang opened his mouth.
“We also fervently desire martyrdom, but offering our blood to the cursed cannonball is not martyrdom, so won’t it prevent us from entering the ark of heaven?”
“What are you talking about? You can go. Didn’t you sacrifice yourself for the Ark Church?”
“But if you get blood on the cursed shell, the blood will be tainted, so even if you purify it with water… … .”
The two got into a doctrinal fight.
As is the case with any argument between principled people, no conclusion was reached as both sides just kept insisting on their own opinions.
Elder Kim couldn’t stand it any longer and shouted.
“Very well. If you do not wish to be martyred, I will perform the sacrifice in the name of the Ark Church.”
As soon as Elder Kim finished speaking, Captain Jang’s scream was heard.
“Ahh!”
The saw blade on Elder Kim’s forearm seemed to cut Navigator Jang in two.
Drops of blood that had fallen onto the surface rose like smoke.
Feeling a sense of crisis at the death of their captain, the sailors began to rebel.
“Elder Kim! Isn’t that too much?”
“The dogmatism is going too far now.”
“Are you trying to sacrifice us because of Elder Kim’s achievements?”
Elder Kim warned them in a cold voice.
“You dare threaten me, the one who has been entrusted with the Holy Spirit by the leader? Do you know what that means? It is an act of hostility to the Ark Church, no less than the five bandits.”
But people’s excitement did not subside.
Instead, the sound of people one by one picking up their weapons could be heard.
Oh! Mutiny on board!
I was going to sink it right away, but I guess I’ll have to wait a bit.
“Haha. I knew this would happen. You guys are the henchmen of the Elder Choi faction, right?”
The oldest sect. Are you talking about Elder Jin-gyu Choi?
I knew that the two of them weren’t on good terms, but isn’t it too much to suddenly call your subordinates the Elder Choi faction?
It seems to me that he turned away because he was pushing his subordinates too hard.
But surprisingly, his subordinates did not deny it.
“Elder Choi, unlike you, said he would transform us.”
Elder Kim snorted.
“Huh! Do you think I would give a chance to become a mercenary to scoundrels like you? What did you offer at most? I offered my daughter, who was more precious than my life, as a tribute.”
Phew, I burst into laughter and the air bubbles rose to the surface and burst.
Now he openly boasts that he sacrificed his own daughter.
“Giving up your lives is the greatest virtue you can do, so just give them up.”
As if Elder Kim had made a surprise attack, the weapons clashed with a loud clanging sound.
“Ahh!”
The sailors’ mutilated bodies fell into the sea.
bang!
Gunshots rang out one after another as someone fired a gun.
Bang! Bang!
“Haha! Do you think something like that could pierce my body, which has received the cult leader’s favor?”
I could hear Elder Kim’s laughter.
Soon the shooting stopped.
Ah! What a pity!
If we were lucky, the grenade would have punctured the rubber boat.
Well, it doesn’t matter because I’ll get through it soon.
The sailors were already being pushed back, but they were further put on the defensive when they could not even use their guns.
From the screams that came, Elder Kim seemed much stronger than the tenant representative.
Judging from the bullets he deflected, isn’t Elder Kim’s entire body covered in purple armor and have saw blades attached to his entire body?
If possible, it would be better to submerge it in water.
If we fight one-on-one, it could be quite dangerous.
After several human heads fell into the sea, the sailors surrendered.
“I was wrong! Elder Kim. Please spare my life.”
Elder Kim killed people so fiercely that he seemed to kill all the traitors, but surprisingly, he accepted the surrender easily.
Perhaps they needed a sailor to operate the rubber boat.
“Good. I won’t ask you to take over the apartment until you take over the apartment. Also, if you contribute to taking over the apartment, I will forgive your sins and I won’t report it to the church at all. Everyone, do your best.”
“Yes, thank you.”
What the heck! This mutiny on board was suppressed way too easily.
Boy, this isn’t fun.
Still, it wasn’t a bad result, as the number of sailors was reduced by more than half.
Well then, I guess I’ll have to get to work before those guys fire their guns.
The work was not as hands-on as the ark ship.
All you had to do was dive under the rubber boat and poke the bottom with an awl.
Unlike the ark, where water poured in through the holes, air bubbles shot out at high speed from the holes in the rubber boat.
The rubber boat rocked before the bloody shells could be loaded.
“What is this?”
“Look at that bubble! There must be a hole in the rubber boat.”
“Ahh! No! If it sinks, we’ll all die!”
“Quickly throw away the gun!”
In an attempt to shed some weight, the sailors tried to throw the cannon into the sea.
Then Elder Kim stood in front of them and blocked their path.
“You guys! What are you doing! How can you take down the shield without a gun? Didn’t you say you would forgive me if I helped occupy the apartment?”
“Elder Kim! Whether it’s a sin or a merit, shouldn’t we live first?”
While they were arguing, the rubber boat began to shrink rapidly.
But they were so busy fighting that they lost the short time they had left to repair the rubber boat.
The ship sank, sinking into the grape water that Elder Kim cherished so much.
“Ahh! Shit! The shield is almost broken!”
I swam to the ark while listening to Elder Kim’s screams.
The ark was maintaining its balance, having managed to drain quite a bit of water.
Even the sailors who fell into the water noticed that the ark was still intact and had not sunk.
“Hey! The ship is still fine. What happened?”
“I don’t know. Anyway, if we don’t get on the ark, we’re dead.”
The sailors began to swim towards the ark.
I was diving and came up to the surface.
Then he raised his arm, raised his index finger, and pointed behind him.
The sailors were surprised to see me suddenly appear before them.
“What is that?”
“Isn’t that Mr. Lee who used to be a swimmer?”
“No. I just saw this guy get his throat cut.”
“Then who is it?”
People wondered who I was, but they couldn’t keep up with my speed as the water resisted little.
And arrows rained down from the sky.
At first it fell into the sea, but soon it finished adjusting its zero point and began piercing people’s heads and shoulders.
“What? Where are the arrows coming from?”
“Oh no! The shield in the apartment is gone.”
“Oh! It’s true. There’s an arrow flying from the apartment. Aaah!”
The sailors, whose numbers had already been greatly reduced, fled in the opposite direction of the ark to avoid the arrows.
Only Elder Kim swam to the ark.
“Haha! The shield is gone, Chief Choi! I told you, I’ll destroy the shield. Wait there.”
At that moment, an arrow flew towards Elder Kim’s head.
Elder Kim raised his purple-clad arm in a dog paddle stance.
The arrow hit Elder Kim’s arm and bounced off.
The Giant Gnat’s thorned arrows shot from a longbow are powerful enough to lodge themselves in a concrete wall, but they don’t penetrate it, so I guess the strength of its purple armor might be comparable to that of a golden shield.
I simulated several operational plans to eliminate Elder Kim.
Dive and hide for a surprise attack.
The problem was that I had to attack an area that didn’t have an armor, but I didn’t know what Elder Kim’s body looked like.
Considering that the sailors fired their guns in vain during the mutiny on board, it is possible that the entire body was covered in carapace.
If the surprise attack fails, a mud fight in the water will ensue.
There was no indication of what Elder Kim would look like in the water.
Okay, then let’s lure them to their home court.
