The Regressor Only Protects Me Chapter 183

Episode 183. The meaning of the elite unit (2)

Gangseo, Incheon joint checkpoint.

The short-haired woman introduced herself to the director in a cheeky manner.

“I’m from Suwon! My name is Chae Chae-yeon! Please take good care of me.”

Bow-.

Chae Chae-yeon bowed her head so that Jeong Su-ri was visible and greeted the director.

Lee Joo-yeon was standing next to Chae Chae-yeon, who had her head bowed.

The two women were Kang Jun-ho's subordinates and had just arrived in Gangseo-gu via Incheon in search of the monarch who monopolized alcohol and cigarettes.

The atmosphere in Gangseo-gu was chaotic.

In that atmosphere, the two outsiders were not welcome.

The checkpoint chief made a grim face and threatened Chae Chae-yeon.

“So. What the f*ck. What do you want me to do? Do you think it’s reasonable to suddenly come here and make such a demand? Get out before you get into trouble. You do realize that your laws don’t apply here in the Metro, right?”

The checkpoint officer placed the pistol on the table between himself and her.

When she saw the gun, Lee Joo-yeon, who was standing next to Chae Chae-yeon, immediately frowned.

But Chae Chae-yeon was calm.

She said, slightly raising the corners of her lips.

“Ah~ Ah~. You’re getting off track again. Let’s not get off track! I’m just here to investigate. So, if you just cooperate… … .”

“You b*tch.”

The checkpoint chief grabbed his pistol in one breath and aimed it at Chae Chae-yeon.

“I’m already so busy arresting those fu*king spies. Why are you calling me all this shit? And you’re an outsider. You fu*king bitch. Do you think it makes sense for you to try to gain investigative authority within the Metro forces? Those fu*king bastards. I’m already so pissed, why are you coming here and causing trouble?”

Half of what he said was profanity.

The checkpoint chief was quite nervous.

The entire checkpoint was in an uproar because of the ongoing investigation into the spies in Man-gyeong.

Even in the midst of such a busy schedule, a meeting with the Suwon 1st branch manager was absolutely necessary according to the agreement between Metro and Suwon.

But the checkpoint chief had no intention of showing them any courtesy.

Surrounding the checkpoint chief were hunters with considerable muscle mass, creating an atmosphere.

But even in such a hostile atmosphere, Chae Chae-yeon did not lose her smile.

She asked, taking a puff of her cigarette.

“You’re at war right now?”

“Whether at war or not. It’s none of your business.”

Chae Chae-yeon crossed her legs.

Her exposed thighs caught the hunters' attention.

She said, blowing out smoke from her cigarette.

“Then let’s do this. Ah-. Um. Okay. If you cooperate with the investigation, I’ll hand over the distribution rights for luxury goods coming through Incheon right here to the joint checkpoint. Isn’t that an attractive offer? Director? Isn’t it?”

The director, who had been showing his displeasure at her words, also softened his emotions a little.

But the checkpoint chief could not accept it.

As Chae Chae-yeon said, the forces are at war.

The current situation in the metro is such that even a single fallen leaf has to be watched out for.

If you made a mistake and fell into the wrong eyes of the underground church, it usually didn't end with death.

The judges of the Underground Bridge are notorious for their cruelty.

The checkpoint officer pulled the slide of his gun and aimed it at Chae Chae-yeon.

“Shut up and get out. Before I shoot. I don’t want to get involved with the Suwon kids either.”

Chae Chae-yeon playfully raised both hands while still smoking a cigarette.

“Ah~~ I told you not to get off track, but you insist on doing this.”

“No matter what you give me, no matter what the conditions are, it is impossible to enter this power. Go and tell your captain. If you touch the Metro now, all the passes you have been giving to your merchants will be confiscated.”

“Hmm~.”

Chae Chae-yeon pursed her lips and nodded.

Then, as if he had no choice, he got up from his seat.

“I can’t help it. If you take such a hard-line stance.”

Chae Chae-yeon stepped back.

Still, he patted Lee Ju-yeon on the shoulder and walked toward the door.

The checkpoint chief's gun was still aimed at Chae Chae-yeon.

But Chae Chae-yeon didn't leave the room, but locked the door.

Crunch-.

She said, exhaling deeply into her cigarette smoke.

“If you’re going to be that tough, we have no choice but to be tough too.”

“You fu*king punk! What are you doing!”

The checkpoint commander stood up in surprise.

Whirik- Taang!!!

A gunshot rang out in the room, and before a second shot could be heard, the hunters had green arrows lodged in their foreheads.

There were green threads attached to Lee Ju-yeon's ten fingers, and the threads were connected to arrows.

As the gunshot rang out, someone began knocking loudly on the door.

But since Chae Chae-yeon had locked the door first, they didn't barge into the room.

Chae Chae-yeon was delighted as she rubbed Lee Joo-yeon's shoulder.

“As expected from my sister. She’s so strong!”

“Once we’ve achieved our goal, let’s find the key and go quickly. What’s your escape plan?”

“It’s perfect, sis. Wait a minute. Are you sure this was the key~?”

Chae Chae-yeon quickly approached the hunters' corpses and searched their pockets.

Then he took a stack of keys out of the checkpoint commander's pocket.

Clank- clank-.

Chae Chae-yeon said, shaking a pile of keys.

“Didn’t you say you were going straight to Man-gyeong on Line 1? You were going to look for your younger brother again.”

Lee Ju-yeon nodded faintly at her words.

"huh."

She wanted to find her younger brother once again in Man-gyeong.

Lee Ju-yeon spent the first and second rounds in Man-gyeong.

After that, he moved his base to Suwon, crossing the dense forest.

This time, using Chae Chae-yeon's poison control artifact, it was possible to go to Man-gyeong right away, but there was intelligence that Man-gyeong was currently blocking all passage to the southern region.

Lee Ju-yeon had no choice but to follow Chae Chae-yeon to Incheon. Furthermore, a proper disguise was essential to go to Man-gyeong.

The two planned to split up here.

Lee Joo-yeon looked at Chae Chae-yeon and asked.

“What are you going to do?”

Chae Chae-yeon answered while taking the gun that the checkpoint chief was holding.

“I am the emperor of ten thousand views.”

“… … You said Hayoonha.”

“Yeah. They’re currently in the process of attacking the Metro forces, so I heard that the top executives of Mankyung are gathered in Yeouido. They might be there. After all, the culprit who monopolized cigarettes and alcohol is most likely Ha Yoon-ha.”

Chae Chae-yeon continued speaking, hanging the gun on her belt.

“Let’s check Yeouido first, and if it’s not there, we’ll go to Man-gyeong. We can check it out from Man-gyeong, you and your sister.”

“Yeah. Okay.”

Lee Ju-yeon answered weakly, then walked over to the firmly closed iron door and opened the lock.

Her artifact glowed green and burrowed through the slightly open crack of the door.

Suddenly a scream rang out.

“See you at Man-gyeong.”

Lee Ju-yeon opened the door, leaving only those words behind.

There, guards at the checkpoint lay bleeding, their entire bodies pierced by green arrows.

* * *

Mapo Bridge has remained unchanged for a week.

Kang Shi-on was hoping that the main force of the enemies would move first, but the enemies did not make any moves and just held their ground.

The two formations here appeared to be doing nothing, but in fact a tremendous psychological war was taking place.

The one who moves first is caught in the opponent's strategy.

As they advanced to this point, Jiang Shion also realized something.

The enemies are also waiting for the mighty army.

As evidence, their main force was still hiding underground and had not yet come out.

No matter how excellent Kang Shi-on's information capabilities are, it is impossible to find the troops hidden underground.

And Mapo Bridge is the fuse.

If Man-gyeong attacks Mapo Bridge first, they will make a prepared move.

If they lead the main force and attack first, Man-gyeong will also prepare a number of moves.

Zion has no intention of attacking them foolishly as they wish.

Just wait and fire.

Tt …

The scrap car rose into the sky and flew towards the Mapo Bridge defense unit.

The archer rang the bell, causing the ogre to advance a little further.

The ogre moved a little further forward, crawling on all fours.

Once the ogre with the catapult mounted on its back was ready to aim, it was also the ogre who carried the catapult vehicle.

The shooter made a final check and fired again.

Once every five minutes.

A crumpled, beverage can-like catapult flew toward the enemies.

The Metro's defensive walls collapsed helplessly, and the enemy took advantage of the absence of rockets to hastily repair their positions.

Anyway, time was on Kang Si-on's side.

Because Man-gyeong had a very good control over the theme of round 2.5, ‘monster.’

However, Kang Shi-on did not just sit there and wait for the enemies to surrender.

The operation was progressing steadily.

All day long, catapulting cars flew in, and as the night deepened.

Several elite soldiers, their entire bodies painted black with charcoal, gathered at the lower part of the bridge.

50 people a day. So far, over 400 people have gathered.

By attaching a wire to the lower part of the bridge, they were secretly crossing Mapo Bridge.

It was a bridge crossing using the wire jumping technique they practiced every day in Pangyo.

Whenever the elite force moved, a diversionary operation was carried out on the bridge.

A small number of elite troops repeatedly approached the enemy's defensive wall and then retreated without the enemy noticing.

Of course, this was also to prevent the enemies from seeing Sleddy moving around while the elite force moved.

Moving secretly through the lower parts, you finally arrive in the northern part of Seoul.

We infiltrated the building along a pre-planned infiltration route.

When we say infiltration, we usually mean moving secretly underground, but it was different within the Metro forces.

Rather, they lived more in the underground, and the surface was empty except for the hunters who were scouting.

The elite force moved stealthily into the ruins.

All of these infiltration routes were planned based on information that Choi Hyun-ji had previously learned.

Choi Hyun-ji seemed to have been sent to Gangnam as a watchdog, but in fact she was sent to the northern part of Seoul to infiltrate deep into their territory and relay information.

Those were all Kang Shi-on's orders and instructions.

Choi Hyun-ji's ability was amazing.

She really didn't get caught even once, and she managed to find out all the enemy's key information and escape safely to Gangnam.

In any case, the infiltration route that Choi Hyun-ji, the most unique among the wanderers, had discovered was unusual, but it was also certain.

The elite force entered an apartment complex in the heart of Seoul, which was considered the safest area.

Their journey was not smooth.

There is something Choi Hyun-ji said to Choi Myeong-jun.

-It's definitely safe, but it'll be really hard. Are you prepared? I almost fell over, too. Especially when I went over Mapo Bridge.

-The elite team can overcome it all. All they need is grit and determination.

-… … Bungsin. Gao Buri-ki. Anyway, don’t die. If you lose, I’ll eat two bowls of rice with Yukgaejang.

The elite force thoroughly practiced Choi Hyun-ji's infiltration route, which they had learned in advance.

Starting from the Mapo Bridge wire, we had to travel to the contact point within 12 hours.

Because we had to get to the rendezvous point before the sun rose.

It takes 6 hours just to cross Mapo Bridge.

It may not seem that difficult when expressed simply in numbers, but crossing the wire is not that easy.

Even if the wire scratched my palm and blood started to flow out, I absolutely could not let go.

I couldn't even raise my voice.

The speed must not be slow either.

I had to keep moving at a constant speed so as not to disturb the colleagues following behind.

Choi Myeong-jun's order was that if it seemed like it would slow down or scream, it would be better to let go of the line and fall into the sea.

So four people fell.

Sleddyman did not miss the opportunity, swallowed the falling prey in one gulp, and jumped into the river.

It took about two weeks for the entire elite force to cross over, 50 people at a time.

Their meeting place was on the 10th floor of an uninhabited construction site.

For two weeks they lived there in silence, eating dried rat meat and surviving on salt.

It was all a special order planned and issued by Kang Sion.

The elite were truly Kang Shi-on's dogs.

A dog that does whatever its owner tells it to do.

And a dog that can bite its enemies at any time.

The elite unit endured hunger and mental suffering for two weeks.

Of course, Choi Myeong-jun was with them.

Even as the agents went crazy, they didn't make a sound.

They just silently eat salt and rat poison.

And exactly two weeks later.

The last of the agents arrived at the rendezvous point, and their leader approached Choi Myung-jun.

The leader of the last group was surprised to see Choi Myeong-jun.

Choi Myeong-jun set out on the very first day to be a role model for his subordinates. And he has been 'sitting' here and waiting ever since.

For two weeks.

And the sight I saw of him was truly that of a devil.

Red smoke was rising from his mouth, nose, and ears. He looked at the leader of the last group to come over with bloodshot eyes.

The leader of the group became tense, bowed his head, and handed him a note.

“This is the hero’s command.”

Choi Myeong-jun received a note from his subordinate.

He took a flashlight out of his pocket.

It was a flashlight that I would never normally turn on, but now I turned it on and looked at the note.

Daughter-.

Choi Myeong-jun was finally able to smile after seeing Kang Si-on's handwriting reflected in the flashlight.

-The enemies begin to attack the Man-gyeong main camp. When the full moon rises in the southern sky, an all-out attack begins. Good luck.

Choi Myeong-jun put the note in his mouth and chewed it.

Then he suddenly got up from his seat.

Then the elite force gathered here also rose up.

Choi Myeong-jun chewed on the note and shined the flashlight on the faces of the agents.

Their eyes were those of murderers who couldn't help but kill someone at any moment.

Choi Myeong-jun looked at them and gave an order.

“Get ready.”
