Hiding A Logistics Center In The Apocalypse Chapter 49

Hiding a Logistics Center in the Apocalypse – Part 49

(Customer Recruitment (2) – This is the free round.)

“Now that I think about it···”

There was something I didn't notice because I was moving so hurriedly.

A motel located on one side of the National Intelligence Service guard post… no, a castle.

Because Camelot, the goose that lays reinforced stones, was bearing fruit again and again.

Clang!

The sound of something falling.

I approached the castle with a hopeful heart and let out a gasp of exclamation.

“Oh my god… how many of these are there?”

Literally, it's 'piled up'.

There are a lot of them too.

The reinforced stone, which was supplied like soybeans in a drought, was emitting a colorful light.

“My lord!”

The four knights of Camelot jumped out, delighted at the sight of me.

Of course, he welcomed me by standing at the threshold, not wanting to be tickled.

The ability of Percival, who had the ability to 'regenerate' and the number of knights increased to four, shone through.

I couldn't help but applaud that effort.

“Jeong-jang··· you guys···!”

That's actually true.

Lancelot, Bedivere, Perceval, and Modred.

Only four knights guarded the empty Camelot.

Was it just for a day or two that that sight seemed so empty?

It wasn't at all my feelings that I had because of some other selfish motive.

thud!

I stood before Camelot.

Then he revealed his long-held wish.

“It is time to rebuild the Knights Templar.”

“My lord···!”

Lancelot covered his mouth in emotion,

Whee!

WHEEK!

Eight ghosts let out a whistling cheer.

It's a shame that the ghosts' navigational abilities disappear, but it wasn't a big problem.

The 'fluidization' enhancement stone used on Modred.

Now, there are several more of them.

At this point, I was thinking of creating ghost knights within the Knights Templar.

“Finally, everyone is gathered together!”

Lancelot was delighted.

Because they were the knights of Camelot who always showed strong support for each other.

“Gwaine is a fire, after all. As for Lionel…”

This time, I followed Lancelot's advice and chose the best strengthening stones for the guys, and used the strengthening stones and magic stones to appoint them as knights.

Charrrrrr!

The cost to appoint one person is one reinforcement stone and 500 magic stones.

It was a huge sum of money, 4,000, but he invested it generously for the skeleton knights.

Crunch! Crunch!

Armor created in the air.

Gwaine, Lionel, Galahad, Kay, Bohord, Hector, Tristan, and Caradoc.

“Your name!”

“Your name!”

Eight knights, radiating a variety of colors, prostrated themselves before me.

Scratch scratch!

Everyone, including you, scratched my body hard.

Either way, the skeleton knights looked utterly delighted.

"heartbreak!"

“Come on in, come on in!”

“How much is this!”

They are skeletons who can neither laugh nor shed tears.

But as I looked at the knights naturally gathering in a circle, I was reminded of the time I had a reunion with my family not long ago.

Perhaps all the ghosts of Camelot Castle have been waiting for this moment.

In this subspace, it was the moment when another 'family' was completed.

Moreover, they weren't just family.

Because the guys had a warm 'home'.

I congratulated and encouraged the reunion of the knights.

“Come on, don’t worry about what I think. Let’s go in quickly and say hello to each other.”

“It’s okay, my lord!”

“How could this be all thanks to you, my lord…”

I encouraged him one more time.

“Hey, is it okay? Just go in quickly.”

“······?”

chuck!

chuck!

As if they had been urged to leave work by their superiors, the knights saluted me one by one and entered Camelot.

From the dark shadows of Camelot, the joyful voices of knights came.

“Adam Camelot isn’t so bad either!”

“Come a little further in! Hehe.”

“Move your legs, haha!”

Knock knock knock!

They share a noisy reunion, the sound of armor clashing.

Camelot, the 'home' that surrounded them, also looked happy.

Woohoo!

Woof!

Camelot Castle is now running more powerfully than ever before.

“Haha. Are you guys really that good?”

It could not have been more heartwarming.

***

After transiting through Incheon, we took a helicopter back to Yongsan where the Joint Chiefs of Staff is located.

Even though Beijing's polluted air was cleared, Japan's problem still remained.

But when I actually heard the detailed situation from Yoo Seong-cheol, it turned out that this wasn't a simple public hazard.

Feeling bewildered, I asked Yoo Seong-cheol.

“···You declared war?”

“Yes, I heard that Fukuoka sent a notice to Busan, region to region. The Busan representative told me that he received a message from the Chamber of Commerce yesterday.”

A similar format to the previous bidding competition.

However, there was a huge difference.

“If it’s Fukuoka… it’s humans, right?”

Humans, not monsters from another dimension.

Because they were using the Chamber of Commerce's war system.

“That’s what I mean… The situation in Japan is not so good right now. No, it wasn’t good, but now it’s completely messed up.”

Initially, the Joint Chiefs of Staff maintained a hotline with the Japanese government.

However, just a few days ago, Japan's existing government collapsed, and another force took its place.

“The far-right forces within Japan have unified under the name of the Yushin Awakening Society. Well, that’s understandable, but… the problem is that they’ve joined hands with other dimensions. As the name suggests, they are characterized by their worship of the ability to awaken and beings from other dimensions.”

Yoo Seong-cheol added, seeming frustrated.

“That’s all I know. The hotline with Japan just got cut off. Anyway, they’ll be pushing towards Busan soon.”

“···How much time is left?”

“The notice clearly stated that it would be 7 days later. That was yesterday… So there are about 6 days left.”

Yoo Seong-cheol spoke in a hoarse voice, as if he felt embarrassed.

“We are planning to leave in a few hours… Could we ask Colonel Kim for assistance? I don’t think I can say that since you just got back from China….”

“Don’t worry about that. I have business in Japan too. Instead···”

“Instead?”

“There must be a place to stop by on the way down.”

***

A few hours later, we were able to contact the Busan representative.

Wheeeeeeee···

Busan, where the rough sea wind blows.

They were based in a small to medium-sized hotel overlooking Busan Port.

Since it was a space equipped with accommodations, conference rooms, and even a restaurant, it seemed that there was no place more useful to the forces responding to destruction than a hotel like this.

“What should I do! What should I do!”

The Busan representative was a young woman in her thirties. At first glance, she seemed serious, but she had a unique personality that sometimes made her vent her worries.

She shook Yoo Seong-cheol's shoulder, her black hair fluttering.

“Thank you for coming! But not now! There’s no time!”

“Calm down, Mr. Park. First, can you share that ‘declaration of war’ with me?”

“Oh, right! Look at my mind!”

If it's to the extent of representing a region, it must be quite strong.

But despite her title as the representative, she was floundering.

She finally came to her senses and shared with us a message from the Chamber of Commerce.

—

This is an announcement from the Multidimensional Chamber of Commerce.

A declaration of war has been received from the 'Fukuoka' region against your 'Busan' region.

To ensure smooth progress of the dispute, we will provide you with information on the Chamber of Commerce's mediation.

[Location and Date]

Busan, Fukuoka

7 days later.

※ Any collision prior to the event will be considered as disqualification.

[Victory Conditions]

Killing the local representative.

[compensation]

Acquisition of business rights in defeated areas.

Support for installing gate portals.

※ 20 percent of the revenue from the installed gate portal will be deducted as brokerage fees and installation costs.

—

“Information about the enemies?”

“Oh, that came too.”

[The Fukuoka region is a symbol of the multidimensional cosmic harmony that took place on the Earth dimension. The Fukuoka region, which accepted the advanced capabilities of the Sharit dimension, was reborn as a fishman who can fight underwater. It is regrettable that they have not yet accumulated sufficient business experience, but their future is drawing attention as they monopolize the business rights of all of Japan with their excellent collaboration ability.]

“What···?”

A mixture of two races: fish and human.

It was not an unfamiliar sight.

I once witnessed beings in the 1st Legion who had been transformed into half-goblins.

But if they were an imperfect form of a half-race, Fukuoka's forces seemed to have achieved perfect fusion.

Busan representative Park Seo-yoon continued her explanation with a voice still trembling.

“They say that all fishermen have a hierarchy. In Busan, there are only ten people, including me…”

It was worth it.

Even if it's up to level 10, the 1,000 magic stones required for the rank are a huge sum that is difficult to afford at a normal level.

Park Seo-yoon's worries continued.

“Chief! Have you received any responses from Daejeon and Gwangju?”

All of these areas won the bidding competition.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff maintained contact with all of them.

This time, it seemed that they had contacted all of them in order to prevent an attack in Busan.

Yoo Seong-cheol answered.

“They are coming… but it will take a few days. We have a shortage of air power, so we have no choice but to come by land. I heard there are five people holding the rank.”

“Ahh! What should I do? There’s not enough time! There’s not enough people!”

Park Seo-yoon fell asleep again.

But Nana Yoo Seong-cheol actually had a relaxed expression.

Perhaps the sight had upset her, and she snapped.

“No, but why are you so calm! We’re all going to die right now! 3 million Busan citizens are going to get eaten by mermaids…!”

She had quite a rich imagination.

What I did to broaden that thinking was…

Jiying.

“Huh? What is this?”

All it took was opening a portal.

Busan is not just Busan.

To show that all parts of the world are interconnected.

.

.

.

Jiing!

Jiing!

“What is all this···?!”

Woof woof!

Park Seo-yoon couldn't close her mouth as she watched the crowd pouring out through the portal.

She must have been disappointed at first.

I had expected support from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but all that arrived was a helicopter carrying me and Yoo Seong-cheol.

but···

Woof woof!

Hundreds of Awakened individuals selected by the Joint Chiefs of Staff were pouring out of the portal right before their eyes.

"···iced coffee!"

It was she who kept making my heart ache.

I was clutching my heart, which was about to burst, but it was still too early to be surprised.

Woof woof!

Dozens of Awakened people that Minwoo gathered in Incheon, and…

Awakened people with large bodies also poured in, numbering close to a hundred.

“See you again soon, Jeonggyeom.”

Their true identity is the Awakened Ones of Gangnam Severance Hospital.

In particular, it was Song Hyeon-gu whom I saved from the brainwashing of Jinseonghak.

On my way down to Busan, I stopped by Gangnam Severance Hospital for a moment to meet Song Hyeon-gu and install the portal.

Just looking at Song Hyun-goo's sturdy shoulders.

Dozens of Awakened people were also swarming around there.

“Huhhhhhhhhh!”

Park Seo-yoon staggered as if she was about to faint due to her joy.

But it's still a long way off.

That can't be the end of it.

“Jeonggyeom Daehyeop! Where are these one-legged bastards! I’ll just leave these Japanese bastards…!”

When I saw dozens of martial artists flying into the sky with their robes fluttering in the wind…

“Krrrrrrrrrr···”

Unable to bear it any longer, he collapsed, foaming at the mouth.

Kuung!

She eventually collapsed.

In that hand, the thumb was raised in a 'chuck' motion.

This completed it.

Yongsan, Gangnam, Incheon, Busan, and even Beijing,

The basic framework of a logistics chain consisting of five terminals.

***

It was a subspace portal that reached level 5 and could accommodate up to 300 people.

It is literally the number of people that can be accommodated, so it was possible to assist with movement even for twice that number of people without any difficulty.

“If it’s this… I think it’s worth a fight!”

The Busan representative who woke up after fainting was completely regained his energy.

But I corrected her.

“Is it even worth fighting? I’m just going to slaughter you all.”

“Just slaughter… right?”

All I did was gather the troops that were scattered all over the place.

And the logistics center's true value didn't end there.

“Now we need to carry out a supply operation.”

This was real.

The plan was to provide enhanced weapons to all the Awakened who gathered in Busan.

In particular, the plan was to provide martial arts books to those with awakened bodies, such as Song Hyeon-gu, and assign skilled people, such as Unyang and Kim Sol, to maximize their growth for a few days.

Other people are fine too.

You can just hand out the magic scrolls like flyers.

If you just tear off one sheet at a time as soon as you see a fish, it will be quite powerful.

In conclusion, all the Awakened people gathered here in Busan would become several times stronger.

In just a few days.

Park Seo-yoon asked cautiously.

“Then… Colonel Kim?”

“While you guys are blocking Busan···”

Defense isn't the only skill.

The victory condition set by the Chamber of Commerce is the killing of the local representative.

so···

“I have to go catch the Fukuoka representative.”

Of course there was one more.

“···I’ll take care of some paperwork too.”

It's like robbing the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

That was my travel plan.
