The Regressor Only Protects Me Chapter 196

Episode 196. Parting and Reunion (4)

Choi Myeong-jun entered the center of the Western Metro forces alone.

All that remained in his footsteps was a corpse.

He walked.

There was nothing that could stop him.

Red smoke, vaporized blood, was spreading out from his body.

Blood flowed from the gunshot holes all over his body, the skin on half of his face flowed off, and his eyes glared like those of a wild beast.

Whether human, monster, or foreign race.

It was such a horrible sight that they all lost their will to fight at once.

He finally arrived at a subway entrance in Mapo-gu.

It was an old and shabby subway entrance with no idea where it was.

The monster was hidden underground, so Choi Myung-jun had only one way to go.

plural.

With that one emotion alone, he was single-handedly crushing the Metro forces.

Choi Myeong-jun's steps as he went down the stairs one by one were slow and weak.

There was no point in him going back to Man-gyeong now.

The reason why Metro was able to be penetrated to this extent by a single player was because most of the Metro force's attacking forces were concentrated in the downtown areas of Seocho, Geumcheon, and Mangyeong.

Thanks to that, Choi Myeong-jun was able to burglarize an empty house.

Even if it was a burglary, the defenses here were so strong that it could not be breached by just one player.

As I got off the subway, a wide passageway appeared, different from what I had imagined.

It looked more like an underground cave than a passageway.

Metro forces used monsters to expand their underground territory.

They tore up the asphalt above ground to create underground roads, and dug tunnels here and there to secure living spaces.

That's why the first ones to greet Choi Myung-jun were the monster defense team of Metro.

The captain of the garrison lined up the hunters with rifles and greeted Choi Myeong-jun.

The hunters could no longer retreat.

If this place was open, it would be the room where the cult leader was.

Choi Myeong-jun took a few more steps forward and then stopped.

A suffocating atmosphere hung in the air.

The hunters, who were looking ahead through the scope with their balls against the buttstock, swallowed dry saliva.

Some of them were shaking violently.

Soon, Choi Myeong-jun's footsteps echoed in the basement again.

The passage was blocked on all sides, so the sound of footsteps was amplified.

Thud… … . Thud… … . Thud… … .

The sound made when moisture on my bare feet meets the ground.

But it wasn't water, it was the hunters' blood.

It was a terrifying sound of footsteps that could swallow up even the screams and gasping for breath.

And Choi Myeong-jun appeared from the darkness.

“All ready for battle.”

The Hunter Garrison captain calmed his nervous subordinates.

Then the captain of the garrison spoke to Choi Myeong-jun, who was walking towards him.

“You’re so fearless… … . How dare you come here alone. I won’t just kill you. I’ll tear your limbs off and throw you in boiling oil… … .”

The captain of the garrison who spoke those words felt his vision suddenly go up.

"……uh?"

The garrison captain's face was lifted up to the sky.

Choi Myeong-jun immediately approached him and grabbed his face and pulled him up.

Churrrrrr… … .

A stream of blood gushed out from the severed neck, hanging in the air.

The hunters who were watching the scene didn't even think about raising their guns.

I just started to silently accept death.

Choi Myeong-jun started to kill people.

He thought as he subdued the hunter rushing at him.

Big brother's revenge.

The end of one's dreams.

The belief that one will never betray the master one has served.

A pledge to never lose your master again.

The hunters came closer and closer.

The hunters' swords and bullets mercilessly cut through and penetrated his body.

Only four sentences were running through Choi Myeong-jun's head.

'It doesn't matter.'

'I'm going to kill you.'

'Come, anyone.'

'I'll trample them all down.'

Even if he dies with his entire body torn apart at the end of this battle, Choi Myeong-jun will swing his fists with all his might and die.

Finally, after killing all the hunters in the passage, Choi Myeong-jun ran wild.

There were hundreds of hunters waiting for him.

Choi Myeong-jun ran there without hesitation.

The hunters screamed and threatened Choi Myeong-jun.

Blood and spit splattered as the hunters rushed at Choi Myung-jun with swords and spears.

Choi Myeong-jun, in response, charged forward and shouted powerfully.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

A cry that is almost a scream.

Even if hundreds of people shouted at the top of their lungs, it would not reach the voice of one man.

Choi Myeong-jun rushed at the hunters again.

Berserker.

A mad warrior.

A beautiful red smoke formed a trail and followed Choi Myung-jun's body as he threw himself into the air.

Choi Myeong-jun made a promise.

At the end of this war, Brother Zion.

He said he would definitely take control of the northern part of Seoul.

He said that he would complete his revenge and support Kang Shi-on, making him the sole 'ruler' of Seoul.

thud-!

He soon met the president and cult leader of the Metro Forces.

It was a space made up of golden pyramids.

At the top of the pyramid sat the leader, adorned with golden accessories all over his body.

Light was pouring down from the sky, and behind the seat a giant monster was crouching.

And at the very bottom of the pyramid was the leader of the Metro forces, the West King.

“That’s amazing.”

The leader sitting on the golden chair began to clap his hands.

His voice was seductive, yet felt as serpentine as ever.

“I’m really jealous.”

The leader got up from his seat and came down one level of the pyramid.

“Kang Shi-on… … He really has many heroes.”

I came down one more space.

“Is this what Cao Cao felt like?”

I came down one more space.

“Even if I had the world, there would be no hero like you left by my side.”

I went down one more floor, and was now on the same floor as Choi Myung-jun. And then I shouted.

“What a deplorable thing!”

The leader asked, slightly spreading his hands left and right.

“Become my man. I will listen to anything. There is nothing I cannot achieve in this world. I am the one who has everything. I am the closest to God. There are too many polluted things on this earth. The polluted things must be disposed of, and only when all of them are dead will the earth be purified. That dream will not last long. If I. want to achieve it, God will help me.”

The leader placed his palm over his heart and asked again.

“Tell me, you hero who served your master wrongly. What do you want?”

Choi Myeong-jun shook his head slightly.

Even this floor was made of gold.

It was so dazzling that I thought all the gold in Seoul had been gathered and melted in this room.

Choi Myeong-jun said.

"then……."

Choi Myeong-jun wiped away the blood flowing down his eyes with his palm and pointed at something with his trembling fingers.

At the tip of his fingers was the face of the cult leader.

“Would you like to give me your neck?”

* * *

The ogres of Kangxiong began to advance into the city, weaving between the buildings.

Metro's defense line was helplessly breached by the torrential Ogre attacks.

But there was a change on the front lines.

The main force of Man-Gyeong had finally arrived in the city.

Kang Shion's army began to subdue the hunters one by one, starting from the outskirts of the city.

Of course, the news was relayed to Woo Ji-hye and Kim Kang-seok.

Woo Ji-hye frowned and looked at the building on the other side.

The faces of the ogres rising above the building were approaching.

Woo Ji-hye spoke urgently to Kim Kang-seok.

“Sir, there’s a change of plan. We’ll just deal with the monsters and then retreat.”

"……good."

Kim Kang-seok was holding Jeong Hyeon-su in his hand.

Jeong Hyeon-su coughed up blood painfully while being held in Kim Kang-seok's hand.

“Coolook… … ! Keuk… … !”

The enemy was stronger than I thought.

According to Metro's advance information, Jeong Hyeon-su was said to be weaker than Choi Hyeon-ji, but the opposite was true.

Jeong Hyeon-su was much stronger.

Because the result of this battle between the three was such that everything in the area was reduced to burning ruins.

Kim Kang-seok extended his clenched fist behind him and tried to kill Jeong Hyeon-su in one breath.

Because I had to hurry up and finish off Jeong Hyeon-su and kill the monster.

Boohoo-!

The moment Kim Kang-seok's fist was swung.

Taat-!

Ha Yoon-ha grabbed Jung Hyun-soo and fell to the side.

Kim Kang-seok's fist split the air.

“You little rat… … ?”

Ha Yoon-ha took out the envelope she was holding in her arms and threw it at Kim Kang-seok.

Choaaaak-!

It was a spore of Nepenthes.

The moment you inhale, mucus and pus come out from every pore in your body.

“Kuaaak!”

Kim Kang-seok inhaled the spores and suffered from pain.

It was his fault for taking off his gas mask during the fight with Jeong Hyeon-su.

And Ha Yoon-ha started to run away with the fallen Jeong Hyeon-su's arm around her shoulder.

She pulled Jung Hyun-soo with all the strength she had.

However, Jeong Hyeon-su, who was leaning weakly on Ha Yoon-ha, had his head bowed.

A thick stream of blood flowed from his mouth and nose.

“… … .”

Jeong Hyeon-su barely raised his head and looked at Ha Yoon-ha.

Ha Yoon-ha was supporting him with a serious expression on her face.

Hyunsoo said to Yoonha like that.

“You weakling… … Where is this… … Come crawling.”

“Shut up. You have to run away first.”

“Idiot… … . Do you think you can… run away… … . Those guys are players.”

“I’m a player too… … !”

“A useless weak player… … yea… … .”

“You even in the midst of this!”

Ha Yoon-ha hugged Jeong Hyeon-su tightly with both hands and took him to a large bus nearby.

It was a large bus that formed a defensive wall.

Ha Yoon-ha was trying to put him on the bus.

However, Jung Hyun-soo pushed Ha Yoon-ha hard. Even though he pushed hard, Ha Yoon-ha was not pushed because she had no strength.

Jeong Hyeon-su said.

“Don’t worry about it and run away… … .”

“It’s noisy.”

“That idiot… … .”

Ha Yoon-ha pushed Jeong Hyeon-su under the bus and looked at the battlefield again.

There, many wounded soldiers were already lying here and there, groaning.

She ran to them without a second thought.

But at that moment, the huge bus was lifted.

Wow-!

Ha Yoon-ha looked up in surprise at the truck floating in the sky.

Kim Kang-seok.

He summoned his men and had my truck moved away.

Kim Kang-seok said.

“Did you think you’d miss it?”

Kim Kang-seok grumbled, shedding tears and snot.

“… … !”

Kim Kang-seok spread the earthenware again.

And then he spat again.

The saliva poured straight towards Jeong Hyeon-su.

But before the saliva could reach Jeong Hyeon-su, Ha Yoon-ha wrapped her arms around him.

Bam! Pavababababapak!

Numerous needles were stuck in Ha Yoon-ha's back.

“Ugh… … .”

Ha Yoon-ha let out a soft moan.

Jeong Hyeon-su, who was watching the scene while lying on the floor, opened his eyes wide.

“Huhhh… … .”

Jeong Hyeon-su got angry when he saw Ha Yoon-ha in pain.

“What the hell… … . Why!”

“Shut up!”

“Don’t shut up! Why! Why! Why can’t you just run away and hit me by yourself?”

“How can you go alone? What the heck… …!”

“If you are the emperor, you should stay in the palace like an emperor!”

“Be quiet… …. What do you know?”

“I know everything!”

“Without knowing anything!”

“Why are you doing this!”

“We’re friends!”

Jung Hyun-soo held his breath at Ha Yoon-ha's powerful voice.

She continued speaking in a very low voice.

“… … We’re friends.”

For Ha Yoon-ha, Jung Hyun-soo was now her only friend.

She was rescued by Kang Shi-on and started out as a member of Man-gyeong's inspection team.

The first time I met Jeong Hyeon-su was because of Man-gyeong's regular military training.

At that time, Choi Myeong-jun guided the two, and after that, Ha Yoon-ha and Jeong Hyeon-su caught Kang Si-on's eye and served as spies and team leaders, respectively.

After Choi Myeong-jun's basic military training, the two laid the foundation as artifact players under Jin Jae-hee, and the two have been together ever since.

Even during the Great War, and immediately after the Great War.

Until the common checkpoint agent becomes the emperor of the ten thousand views.

Until the runny nose escaped from his father's embrace and became the supreme commander of a force.

Although the two did not speak to each other, they looked after and cared for each other.

Jeong Hyeon-su usually thoroughly prevented Ha Yoon-ha from touching his body.

Since Ha Yoon-ha could obtain someone's memories just by touching their body, Jeong Hyeon-su didn't want to get caught.

That feeling of caring for each other between friends was so disgusting to Jeong Hyeon-su.

“Huh… … . Hooooo… … !”

Jeong Hyeon-su took a deep breath under Ha Yoon-ha's protection.

Although he was so exhausted that he could hardly move a finger right now, he squeezed out every bit of his strength.

Jeong Hyeon-su grabbed Ha Yoon-ha's shoulders and pushed her aside.

“Whoa-.”

Jeong Hyeon-su raised his upper body.

And with difficulty, I straightened my knees and got up from my seat.

A faint electric shock shot from his back.

Jeong Hyeon-su's eyes glared at Ha Yoon-ha without wavering.

“So run away.”

Ha Yoon-ha frowned as if she was dumbfounded, then ran over to him again and hugged his shoulder.

"no."

“This is crazy!”

“Let’s go together… … !”

“What are you going with! Are you on a picnic?!”

“Let go! I’ll go with you!”

“Why are you so stubborn!”

“I have something to say… … !”

Ha Yoon-ha and Jung Hyun-soo continued to bicker during this time.

Kim Kang-seok, who couldn't just watch that scene, flew in and threatened the two.

Kim Kang-seok stretched out his hands and gathered the earthenware.

“Then let’s both go to hell together.”

The bullets were fired at Jeong Hyeon-su and Ha Yoon-ha.

Jeong Hyeon-su tried to subdue Kim Kang-seok with all his remaining strength.

After that, you will die.

But if he could save Ha Yoon-ha, his own life was nothing.

Kwajijijijik-!

Lightning gathered in his hand, and the lightning aimed at the flying earthenware pipes.

It was Jeong Hyeon-su's last struggle.

The earthenware pipes fired numerous spit shots.

The needles came pouring down like a shower.

Jeong Hyeon-su kept his eyes wide open and fired the electricity until the end.

But it wasn't Jeong Hyeon-su's lightning that stopped the countless needles.

In fact, no matter how much Jeong Hyeon-su struggled, To-gwan would not let go of the injured Ha Yoon-ha.

Whirik- Pavabababak!!!

A huge explosion resonated in all directions.

Only then did Jeong Hyeon-su blink once and try to understand the scene before his eyes.

The spit from the earthenware jar hit the sphere and fell helplessly to the floor.

The lines, thicker and sharper than needles, aimed at Kim Kang-seok floating in the sky.

The one who stood between the two was their hero, Kang Shion.

He was glaring at Kim Kang-seok as if he was going to kill him.

At the same time, light spread across the sky.
