Hiding a Logistics Center in the Apocalypse – Part 46
(Apocalypse's inner strength method (2))
the next day.
Yunyang, whom I met in the hotel lobby, said.
“I think we need to completely revise our plans.”
It was a natural thing.
Food and water in abundant supply.
Most crucially, clean air.
Because the conditions that were initially assumed have changed completely.
“Originally, it was a fight where the longer it took, the more disadvantageous it became. Because I was constantly consuming my internal energy to purify the poison. But···”
Wheeeeeek!
The wind blows throughout the hotel.
The fresh air swept through Yunyang's hair.
He looked surprised, and at the same time, dumbfounded.
“Now, on the contrary, internal energy is being accumulated. Everyone is gradually becoming stronger.”
“That means···”
“Yes, I think it would be better to take a breather. Of course, we don’t have much time.”
Because the polluted air of Belzebuh was still flowing on the westerly winds.
“The coastal cities of Shandong Province will be the first to suffer. The atmosphere of Belzebub will reach us within four days at the latest. As you know… Korea will be next.”
A situation where massive damage is expected.
That wasn't the only effect Belzebuh's atmosphere had.
Because it completely destroyed the surrounding natural ecosystem.
“The green zone around Beijing has been completely destroyed. Even if we destroy the gate core and purify the atmosphere… there’s no telling how long it will take to repair the damage.”
The conclusion was simple.
This needs to be done before the polluted air reaches coastal cities.
I summarized the situation.
“We need to tie the knot within four days at the latest.”
“That’s right. I need to recover from my injuries as much as possible during that time.”
After setting a deadline, we quickly moved on to the next topic.
Regarding the power of the Belzebuh dimension that we have to deal with.
Yunyang brought notes for explanation.
Then he started drawing like Dr. Fabre, an insect doctor.
'···You draw well, don't you?'
Swish swish.
A painting that is being completed quickly.
Even though they were clearly monsters, their appearance somehow felt familiar.
Pointing to the completed insect encyclopedia, I asked.
“Wasp… moth… is this an ant?”
“That’s right. That’s true, but···”
It was the same.
Only the size was continental.
The wasps and ants were about the size of a cow, and the moths were monsters the size of a two- or three-story building, and they all had a repulsive force of the eighth level.
As terrifying as it was to imagine, the real problem wasn't these guys.
“Grasshoppers and… cicadas?”
“I didn’t know that these insects exist in Korea too. That’s right. In fact, these guys are a bigger problem.”
As expected, it was big.
Swarms of locusts the size of a forearm bit both livestock and people indiscriminately, while cicadas the size of shield kites sprayed pure white dust.
They were small in size, but they were inferior entities that could not exert any force…
“There are too many. There’s no point in trying to beat them. I guess we’ll just have to ignore them and go through the gate.”
“Is that possible?”
“It’s possible if you apply your inner strength. You’ll have to accept a certain amount of damage.”
It was a decision I could make because my internal energy had recovered.
I guess I'm saying this after doing some calculations…
A clearer way occurred to me.
“They’re just bugs, after all?”
“That’s true, but······”
“Let’s spray pesticide. I have too much.”
"yes···?"
The answer was surprisingly close by.
.
.
.
We jumped straight into the experiment.
One of the martial artists brought him a giant grasshopper and a cicada, and tied up the ones the size of his forearm in a closed conference room.
Cheeeeeee!
Dozens of pesticides.

Epquila, home keeper, wheel, mosquito, herbal, and lemon scents.
Like researchers in a laboratory, we carefully compared the insecticidal power of each product.
But the conclusion was the same.
“It’s not that it’s ineffective, but···”
Struggle!
Six legs wriggling as if in pain.
My eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
But that was it.
Chewy!
Cheek!
Poured out dozens of cans.
But no matter how much they were pickled in medicine, the insects' lives were never ended.
At a point where something different becomes urgent.
“Oh, right.”
A thought passing through my head.
I reconfirmed the time given to Unyang.
“Three days later, in the morning, the ceremony will be held. Right?”
“Yes. At the latest, we will have to decide the outcome by then.”
“Okay, I’ll be back soon.”
With those words, I stepped back into subspace.
.
.
.
Abilities open to subspace.
It was given to me, but it wasn't an ability that was entirely mine alone.
Subspace Laboratory.
My sister-in-law often used my subspace laboratory when making potions or developing other miscellaneous buff potions.
The reason was simple.
You don't need to bring the materials yourself; you just need to display a hologram of the lab and ask Pax to measure and mix the ingredients according to the recipe you confirmed with your <Alchemist> ability.
This time I was thinking of asking my sister-in-law for help.
Create a super-powerful insecticide that will wipe out the insects of Belzebuh.
My brother was worried, but···
“What? Pesticide? Isn’t that bad for babies?”
“I said it’s a hologram.”
Fortunately, there was no strain on my sister-in-law's body.
The remaining problem is to verify the effectiveness of the pesticide thus completed.
Fortunately, there was still a way to solve this problem.
Because I recently achieved subspace level 5 and gained new abilities.
—
◈ Subspace Laboratory (3) (New!)
– Objects identified externally can be visualized as holograms.
-You can conduct a mock simulation using the formed hologram.
※ However, only confirmed information about the target is reflected in the simulation.
—
Now, we can even introduce external enemies into our labs.
It is said that you can float the insects of Belzebuh and spray pesticide on them.
Moreover, since they were all made up of holograms, the simulations could be conducted in a completely safe environment.
The cost required to open it is 3,000 magic stones.
It wasn't a small expense, but as always, I didn't feel it was a waste.
“Pax, open up.”
[All right.]
[You received 3,000 magic stones.]
[There are 18,877 magic stones remaining.]
The goal is to develop new pesticides.
My sister-in-law accepted the request without any burden.
“It’s something I usually do anyway. The bugs might be a bit creepy, but… it’s a hologram after all. It’ll probably be as rewarding as making a healing potion.”
“I’ll do the rooting, honey.”
“Then it’s even better!”
The newlyweds shared the roles.
Starting today, we will conduct experiments by spraying pesticides on grasshoppers and cicadas.
I just desperately hoped that the development would be completed within the given three days.
***
Now all that remained was for the martial artists to prepare.
“Okay- It stings.”
“Ahh!”
The eldest sister chose those with severe internal injuries and healed them.
“Write! Write!”
The remaining people continued to build up their internal strength by continuing to eat breakfast.
People with free time like Unyang gathered separately and began practical training.
Several of the hotel's conference rooms were converted into martial arts studios, and dozens of martial artists began to build up their strength through training and practice.
And among them, there was someone who stood out after Unyang.
Pfft!
A brisk striking sound.
Even though it was a predicted attack, the man who received the punch was pushed back about ten meters.
Pusheeee···
An attacker who takes back his fist surrounded by aura.
She was the fist dragon of the broken building gate.
He had a young face that looked like he was in his mid to late twenties, but when he actually threw his fist, you couldn't find any trace of that naivety.
Even among the martial artists, her excellence was so well-known that she was recognized as the second most skilled swordsman after Jeokgangun Sword Unyang.
'for a moment······?'
Suddenly, a sense of foreboding came over me.
I've only ever seen one similar being.
No, to be exact, I lived by watching.
That's why.
A tiger was released into this pride of lions.
Kim Sol was brought straight from the subspace.
“What is all this? Are you filming a historical drama?”
Then he dragged her to Unyang and introduced her to him with a lottery ticket.
“Great Hero. If I were to speak to this person···”
The feeling of bewilderment didn't last long.
Because Yunyang recognized Kim Sol's extraordinary talent at a glance.
“Jeonggyeom Sohyeop, this person is···”
An aura that surrounds the body.
It seems that people who use their bodies can see that.
Do athletes have Olympic DNA in their bones?
Even though I just brought it here…
'···Why are you fighting all of a sudden?'
A friendly match between Kim Sol and Kwon Ryong came about naturally.
chuck!
The two people who had exchanged lottery tickets rushed toward each other without saying who would go first.
Swish!
Taang!
That's how the fight started.
There were several attempts at exploration, but···
'It's not that special, is it?'
There was no particular impression.
It just feels like Kwon Ryong is holding up pretty well against Kim Sol?
However, as the fight continued, a strange atmosphere began to fill the training grounds.
Swish!
Kim Sol's diary, which was thrown out.
Elasticity leaked out.
“Well-fisted! Well-fisted!”
“Isn’t it just a punch?”
“Jeonggyeom Sohyeop, you don’t have any discerning eyes! How can that be just a fist?”
Is it because I've been hit for 20 years?
To me, Kim Sol's fist, which had no equal, was drawing admiration from the martial arts world.
Wedge!
A fist from the dragon flying quickly towards the abdomen.
Kim Sol accepted the attack as is, then turned her waist around the axis and sent it flying in a diagonal direction.
This time, the martial artists, including Unyang, were in an uproar again.
“Even the Baguette (Eight Extreme Fists)···?”
“······?”
“How could he know the Eight Extremes at such a young age…!”
About 10 minutes had passed.
It wasn't a fight to decide the winner.
The two ended the fight by exchanging lottery tickets.
“Jeonggyeom Sohyeop, for a moment···”
Yunyang ran to Kim Sol in a panic, saying he had something to check.
Then he felt the pulse on Kim Sol's wrist and let out an exclamation.
“Heavenly Martial Arts Body···! What the hell is a Heavenly Martial Arts Body!”
“What? You’re saying it’s a thousand-year-old’s body?”
A flood of Chinese characters.
The power of the magic stone was helping me interpret, but I couldn't understand it at all.
When she came to, Kim Sol was completely absorbed in the cheers of the martial artists. She was riding on the horse of one of the martial artists and was uttering incomprehensible words such as, “Hyeop is hyeop and kwon is kwon.”
“Hot!”
The era names of the martial artists poured out.
It was a world of martial artists that was completely incomprehensible, but Unyang explained it simply.
“I heard that Kwon Ryong wants to teach his sister his skills. It seems that it will also help him in his own training.”
"ah···"
It seemed like they had something in common.
It was a good thing.
Kim Sol was our solid force, and it would be great if we could become stronger together through training.
'Wait? Now that I think about it···'
A good idea occurred to me.
The red cloud sword and cloud ray that are in front of my eyes right now.
Wasn't he a master of the sword who could wield the sword?
Jiying.
I immediately opened a portal and entered the subspace.
Then, he grabbed Baek Min-woo's wrist and dragged him to Incheon through the installed portal.
“What, why are you suddenly like this?”
“You’re studying abroad, Minwoo.”
Because the guy was an Awakened member of the Inspector class.
***
So, three days passed.
The martial artists maximized their internal energy through the clear energy of Jirisan Mountain.
The younger sister, Kim Sol, learned the secrets of martial arts by hanging out with Kwon Ryong, and Baek Min Woo learned basic swordsmanship from Jeok Gang Un Geom.
Kugugugu···
The two people somehow give off a different vibe than before.
An invisible energy that had never been seen before swirled around the fist and the tip of the sword.
“It’s finally today···”
Unyang hummed softly.
It was different from the serious voice from three days ago.
If before it had been filled with a life-or-death fighting spirit, this time it was filled with a relaxed confidence and anticipation that they could sweep away their enemies.
Taang!
The front door of the shabby hotel was thrown wide open.
After three days of closure, it was time to check the results of the training.
That wasn't all.
Although it was a short time, there was one more thing I prepared.
Booooooo!
Boohoo!
Grasshoppers and cicadas swarmed through the open door like a swarm of bees.
but,
Flutter!
The martial artists put their hands into their wide sleeves.
chuck!
The thing that was taken out like that…
It was a familiar form of spray.
As soon as you press the Kuk button,
Cheeeeeeek!
A colorless gas was sprayed into the air.
Spud!
Splash!
Caaaak!
Insects flipping over and foaming at the mouth like crazy.
Super-strong insecticide.
Its development has been completed.
Unscented and harmless to the human body.
