Apocalypse Needs Old People Episode 103
68. 17 years old (3)
The other me on the screen looked exactly the same as I did six years ago.
A completely different look from how I’ve grown over the past six years.
I wonder if it’s fixed in that shape.
“Did you send this plane?”
I asked the screen, but the addict stared blankly at the camera lens instead of me.
-If you’re asking me a question, don’t expect an answer.
“what?”
-This is a recorded video. When you see this… it will be about 6 years later.
‘This is a video that was filmed 6 years ago?’
So that’s why your face doesn’t look any older than before.
But even though it’s a recorded video, the opening comment is ‘Hello, dopamine addict.’
I guess he knew I’d be the first one on board this plane.
As if the words about the recorded video weren’t a lie, the addict continued talking without paying any attention to us in front of him.
-If you’ve come this far and are watching this video, you probably noticed that this plane belongs to a ‘dopamine addict’. So you should have no problem using it.
I had a feeling from the moment I entered this cockpit without any obstructions… … .
Are you really sending this to me to use?
Banggu Seok-yeo also whispered to me with a suspicious expression, as if she didn’t trust the words of a very addicted person.
“Are you really telling me to use this plane?”
“I’m not the kind of person who would give in so easily.”
“X I’m nervous. Is this going to explode?”
-You must be anxious about me suddenly showing kindness.
As words that seemed to be a continuation of our conversation flowed out in the video, Banggu Seok Yeo-bo narrowed her eyes even more.
“Is this really a recorded video? It looks like a joke.”
-This plane isn’t just given to you. There are conditions.
“condition?”
-I don’t think it’s time for you to come to my area yet. This plane has saved routes to other areas, but it can’t set a route to my area or the cocaine area right below mine.
Hmm.
If you’re going to fly this plane, are you telling me not to come near the Unicorn Zone?
‘Come to think of it, when I told you there were no barriers between zones, didn’t I say that I excluded the Unicorn zone?’
What are you doing in the Unicorn Zone that you don’t want to show off to others while giving away airplanes?
Well, I guess I can just take a plane to the Love Zone and take a leisurely look around, then walk to the Unicorn Zone.
The only thing is that this plane can’t go near the unicorn area, but I’m free to go there on my own two feet.
-It means that you can ride this anywhere as long as it doesn’t come to my area. I won’t interfere with what you do in other areas.
‘This guy also opened up additional doors… so he must know that my goal is to log out.’
Still, if you look at it, you can see that they tell you not to come into their area or into the cocaine area.
Are you going to take responsibility for those two areas and open the player status windows?
If I open all the player status windows in other areas and the logout doesn’t open, I know I’ll have to go to Cocaine and Unicorn eventually.
But there seemed to be no opportunity to ask any additional questions to the addict who declared that the video was recorded.
The addict smiled brightly at the camera.
– Then, congratulations on turning 17 safely. Oh, right. You can do whatever you want with the enclosed gift.
With those words, the screen turned completely black, then the auto-pilot indicator returned.
Anyway, it seems right to give this plane to me.
however…….
‘I can do whatever I want with the enclosed gift?’
I wasn’t the only one who found the last words strange, as Banggu Seok Yeo-bo muttered with a puzzled look on her face.
“What gift?”
And to that muttering came a reply that should never have been heard.
“You’re talking about me.”
“… … !”
When you suddenly hear an unfamiliar voice, look in the direction from which the sound came.
Roughly swept platinum hair, and eyelashes so thick and light that it’s hard to tell the color of her eyes.
A young man was seen with his tight shirt sleeves rolled up to his muscular elbows, his black gloved hand resting on the shoulder of the woman in the corner of the room.
‘It’s a kerma I’ve never seen before.’
“Hello, ladies.”
“What the heck!!”
The startled woman in the corner seemed to have forgotten my warning not to shoot, and hastily took out the gun on her waist and aimed it at the blond-haired young man.
The girl in the corner of the room pulled the trigger in a simple manner, but the young man extended his hand with a smiling face.
After the final gunshot, all that remained was the sound of a bullet bouncing off an outstretched palm and rolling along the floor of the aircraft.
The guy who deflected the bullet without a fight pretended to be surprised and raised both hands.
“Hey, stop it. It’s a waste of bullets.”
Magnetic shield.
I am a player in the Unicorn Zone.
‘View the character.’
I couldn’t help but open my eyes wide as I opened the guy’s character view to check his player information.
[Name: mikisoccer
Title: High Intelligence Subject
Affiliation Area: Unicorn
*This system belongs to players addicted to dopamine.]
‘mikisoccer?!’
I was skeptical, but did you really go to that convenience store and get possessed?
But it was more than what I heard from Taejung that the guy was actually possessed by the Unicorn Zone.
I couldn’t believe that that bastard, the addict who opened this system, was the master.
‘I opened up the system of the guy who was stealing my strategy by spending all my points?’
“Honey, in the corner of the room?”
Meanwhile, Mickey Parker tilted his head as if he had opened Banggu Seok Yeobo’s profile.
“This is my first time seeing this player.”
As the guy slowly started to reach out his hand towards the corner of the room, who was sitting there with his gun not working, I unfolded my baton and tried to rush at him.
Then, I found myself stopping without realizing it at the languid voice that came out of his mouth.
“Are you the obstacle that Idam was talking about?”
This time… you say?
‘You even know my real name?’
how?
Did the addict himself say that?
‘How much does this guy know?’
The thought of opening up the door further crossed my mind, but Mickey Parker glanced at me for a moment and then started reaching out to the corner lady, so I shouted.
“Wake up, Han Yeo-bom!”
When I called her real name, Banggu Seok-yeo came to her senses and quickly retreated to the back to avoid the approaching hand.
Mickey Parker hasn’t done anything yet, so this might seem like an overreaction.
The way he looked at the corner of the room, talking about obstacles, was not at all kind.
Looking back at how that bastard addicted to Topamin tried to kill Banggu Seok Yeo-bo from the beginning, this bastard, who is his sub player, might be thinking similar things.
More than anything, I’m concerned about the phrase that was on Mickey Parker’s title.
‘Highly intelligent test subject.’
That’s the title given to players who have been reduced to being public interest test subjects in the Unicorn Zone.
The one who practically rules that area is probably a Toppamin addict, and it’s a bit creepy that they let this guy be turned into a test subject and then used him as a sub player.
For someone who was a test subject, his body looked strangely healthy and at first glance, he looked like a cheerful man, so you could mistake him for a normal person.
‘That guy, his eyes are wide open.’
The first strike always wins.
I guess I have to respond to players who trespass into my territory at least to this extent.
After I confirmed that Banggu Seok-yeo had distanced herself from Mickey Parker, I clenched my fists, glanced up at the deck, and spat out.
“Shoot me one more time.”
“What? No, but this guy has a shield on his body-”
“Just grind!”
Instead of refuting further, Banggu Seok-yeo pointed her gun at Mickey Parker.
“Hmm~”
Mickey Parker tilted his head to the side slightly, showing no intention of dodging the gun aimed at him.
“Bullets don’t work on me.”
“know.”
Quagga River!
As soon as he gave a short answer, there was a loud noise as if something had crashed down onto the plane, and its body shook violently.
Mickey Parker, unaware that the plane would shake, staggered as he could not support its size, but Banggu Seok-yeo, who had already figured out what I was going to do, held onto the device to support his body and aimed at Mickey Parker without shaking.
“What did you do just now… … .”
What are you doing?
I broke the plane’s magnetic shield before I could hit you.
“Eat this, you thief.”
Phagec!
The lightning struck through the deck and pierced right through the bastard’s back.
The magnetic shield he was wearing was shattered.
“…!”
The guy looked at me with surprised eyes, but Banggu Seok-yeo had already pulled the trigger.
There were three gunshots in total.
The bullets that Banggu Seok Yeo-bo fired in succession without missing the opportunity flew at a murderous speed.
There was no sound of the bullet piercing the skin.
“what?”
I looked at the bullets floating in the air like a lie.
The sight of the bullets flying towards Mickey Parker slowly drifting in an oval shape around his body was quite surreal.
It looked like a planet orbiting the sun.
‘Ability!?’
If my memory serves me right, that’s the ability of a legendary monster that only appears after the Second Apocalypse.
Anything that was made of scrap metal was dragged around… … .
The first video of the addict who was addicted to Topamin flashed through my mind.
There was definitely a scene in that highlight video where they were catching that monster.
‘Did you use the legendary monster jewel you obtained while returning on that guy?’
Since it was a monster’s ability that only appeared during the second apocalypse, it was natural that a regressor or a Topamin addict would have been involved in Mickey Parker’s ability.
‘No, why am I giving my legendary power to that thief… …!’
Even as I thought that, I struck Mickey Parker with lightning once more.
The bullets floating around Mickey Parker fell to the ground as if they were lightning rods, taking the lightning I struck.
It wouldn’t have been hard to call down another lightning strike, but I didn’t call down another lightning strike, watching the bullets that had fallen to the ground float back into the air at Mickey Parker’s gesture.
Because we don’t know how many times this aircraft will be struck by lightning.
I can’t just destroy my plane to catch one of those guys.
‘Damn. Did you send me a guy with counter attributes on purpose?’
Mickey Parker, sweeping back his flowing bangs, muttered as he looked at the bullets crackling with electricity flowing through them.
“I heard that you gained the Snow Giant’s ability six years ago… but you can already use it to this extent?”
‘You know I have the power of a snow giant.’
I had been wondering since I came looking for you after noticing you collapsed in the cave that day.
It seems that the fact that I acquired the Snow Giant’s ability was also arranged by another me.
No, but how much of this did you tell him?
Wasn’t this kid friends with Taejung from our area?
Did that guy who’s addicted to Topamin not tell you anything about Taejung?
“What, what is it!”
Unlike me, Banggu Seok-yeo didn’t seem to think that Mickey Parker’s special ability was to make bullets fly through the air, so she pulled the trigger a few more times with a puzzled look on her face.
As the bullets flew away, they joined the rotating column and went around in a beautiful curve.
Mickey Parker looked at the corner of the room with a pitiful look on his face.
“They say I have no taste for making friends, and it’s true.”
“what?!”
As soon as Banggu Seok-yeo shouted in a fit of rage, the bullets that had been floating around Mickey Parker all flew towards Banggu Seok-yeo.
“Ugh!”
“Han Yeo-bom!”
As the number of bullets he had fired pierced his body in an instant, Banggu Seok-yeo let out a groan of pain and fell backwards.
“Oh, just a moment.”
Mickey Parker, who put his hand in his bosom as if telling her to wait a moment, quickly took out his gun and fired several shots until Banggu Seok-yeo stopped moving.
“after…….”
Mickey Parker smiled at me as he put his gun away.
“At this point, I won’t be able to ‘eat’.”
‘What crazy kid did you send me as a gift?’
Are you saying that you shot the child like that to prevent him from getting treatment?
The same goes for the drug addicts… Why on earth do they want to kill Banggu Seok-yeo-bo so badly?
I had no idea how much it would help me to mention to that guy that Taejung was here.
I don’t want Taejung to meet a psycho like this.
“Hey, are you okay?”
As I tried to approach Banggu Seok-yeo, Mickey Parker blocked my way with a sly smile on his lips.
“Are you trying to save me?”
“Get out of the way.”
“Idam said that other players are of no help to you.”
“I don’t really need any help.”
“It’s time to find a player of your level, little boss.”
“A player at my level?”
“For example, like me.”
I chuckled at those words.
When I laughed, the guy looked at me with an offended expression.
“Why are you laughing?”
“It’s funny when a thief talks about level.”
I felt a sting from those words, as my face turned red.
“That was… in a previous life. It’s different now!”
“How different is it?”
“It’s not much of a difference! At least I’ll be more helpful than the guy lying behind me.”
“you?”
“Yeah! You too, you didn’t come forward even though I made a rag for you because you thought that little brat was pathetic. If you had the ability, you could have protected him.”
“No. I just left it alone because I didn’t need to protect it.”
“what?”
I looked behind Mickey Parker and muttered softly.
“He’s become a guy who is good enough for me.”
On the nape of Mickey Parker’s neck, who was looking at me with an expression of incomprehension.
Banggu Seok-yeo stabbed the knife in with all her might.
