#Episode 75. Double Operation (1)
Zion declared war on the Third Power of Manan.
Because of this, the first force, the queen of warriors, Park Ji-soo, would also have been informed of the war situation.
That’s exactly what Zion wanted.
Park Ji-soo learns of the relationship between Man-gyeong and the three forces.
“As of now, Man-Gyeong is at war with the three powers. But in reality, we won’t be fighting. All I want is for us to have a relationship where we are at war.”
At Zion’s words, several of the officers breathed a sigh of relief.
But I was curious.
What kind of results can be produced by doing this?
In the end, it was all about producing results.
And as always, Zion was a man who got things done.
“We will take the river.”
Zion was a natural strategist.
And his operational plan, which lasted for hours, soon convinced everyone.
No, it was more than convincing.
Everyone began to admire and praise Zion’s plan.
Because his plan was perfect, everyone praised it.

Knock knock. Knock knock… … .
I was riding in a one-ton truck being pulled by an ogre.
The ogre tied a long rope to the front of the truck and carried it forward.
Ogre truck.
It was a great means of transportation here.
Ogres have massive bodies that allow them to move through snowy fields just by walking.
The body shook steadily and rattled.
I leaned against the wall of the truck and looked up at the sky in silence.
There was the smell of cigarettes, a faint smell of blood, and the sound of the wind.
“… … .”
It seems like a little over a year has passed since I filed a complaint at the police station.
In the meantime, much of the snow had melted, and green, alien plants began to grow throughout the city.
Plants provided new food sources for the inhabitants.
Moreover, extraterrestrial life forms that pose little threat to humans have become a new source of protein.
Within a year.
In the span of a year and a half, to be exact, the world has changed dramatically.
The world was covered with snow, and new relationships and new powers emerged one after another.
Of course, melting snow did not turn into a sea of water.
According to Jin Jae-hee, the snow that occurs here has different properties from the snow that exists on Earth, so the Earth will not become a sea of water.
However, round 2 is not over yet.
But rather, it was a blessing in disguise for me.
‘We are somehow supplying drinking water by melting snow now, but if we don’t take over the river before the third round… … .’
That would be the worst possible situation for the powers that be.
That’s why this operation was necessary.
This operation will secure a water supply source and accelerate the war against Dongangu.
The war with Dongangu will be a mass killing on a scale never before seen.
The unit commander and leadership capabilities of each unit, as well as the individual training equipment of the soldiers, had to be reviewed.
We won’t stop killing each other until this league is completely over.
Until the day when the whole world is covered in blood.
“… … .”
I closed my eyes and tried to sleep in the rocking truck.
It’s because I haven’t been able to sleep comfortably at all lately.
I didn’t fight off the sleepiness that was creeping in.
Having been anchored in the city for a long time and living safely, I had forgotten one thing.
This is wild.
That humans are prey creatures.
“……danger.”
Jin Jae-hee’s mumbling voice was heard from the side.
I opened my eyes slightly at the voice, and soon turned my head to where her gaze was fixed.
It was a park that was used as a playground in the past.
There were still traces of the playground there, and the slide was covered in a giant snake.
-Choo-ah-ap, choo-ah-ap.
The snake’s skin was gray and covered in long, thick hairs.
It looked like a dragon at first glance because of its huge size, but upon closer inspection it turned out to be a snake.
Because it had no arms or legs.
Jilgeong- jilgeong-.
And out of the snake’s mouth were two legs of an unknown person, writhing.
The snake was watching the passing group, its mouth continuing to slosh and chew on both legs.

It didn’t look like he would come this way.
Because there was an ogre on this side.
There are those that are a threat to their ecosystem and those that are not.
The balance of the law of the jungle was maintained.
Ogres were the top predators in their ecosystem.
However, the snake’s eyes were not bad either.
It kept its head upright and moved from right to left until we were out of sight.
If there weren’t any ogres here, I would have rushed at them right away.
“… … .”
Losing interest, I closed my eyes again.
I just wanted to relax and have a good time while traveling.
* * *
As night fell, torches now lit up the streets.
“Your Majesty is coming!”
When the monarch appeared, soldiers controlled the central street.
“Your Majesty… … !”
“It’s your Majesty… … !”
“Ah, Your Majesty!!”
As Zion entered the city, the inhabitants flocked to see his face at least once.
In an instant, a sea of people formed along the central road.
To them, Zion was more than just a monarch.
Thud… … Thud… … !
The ogre walked forward, pulling a truck.
Soon we arrived in front of the old Manan Police Station building.
“… … .”
After arriving in front of the police station, Zion got out of the truck and stretched out a little.
“Your Majesty… … !”
“Your Majesty!!! Ah, Your Majesty!”
Woof woof-!
The townspeople immediately gathered around him.
There were also people carrying food and luxury items.
However, the soldiers were controlling the residents so that they could not approach Zion any more, and Zion went up to the police station without any greetings.
After he went up to the police station, the crowd was still there cheering.
Among the crowd was Choi Hyeon-ji, a wanderer who had come down from the northern part of Gyeonggi Province.
And next to Choi Hyun-ji was Ha Yoon-ha, the secretary of Man-gyeong who had been watching her for several days.
Ha Yoon-ha had been monitoring Choi Hyun-ji for several days.
This was also the duty of the officers appointed by Zion.
“Haa… … Your Majesty.”
Ha Yoon-ha looked up at the police station where Kang Si-on had entered with bright eyes.
Choi Hyun-ji frowned at the sight.
Everyone gathered here showed almost fanatic support for Zion.
Why is that?
What on earth has the monarch Kang Shion been doing?
It was a series of surprises.
Choi Hyun-ji’s first impression of Kang Si-on was just…
‘… …Lunch?’
In fact, it was an appearance that made you wonder if he had done all this.
It wasn’t just about being handsome or ugly, but Choi Hyun-ji thought that at least the ruler of this place was a person with overwhelming charisma.
Besides, he didn’t seem to be a high-ranking player.
Rather, an overwhelming energy was felt from the woman next to Zion.
‘… … The secret of this power. Ah- I’m so curious.’
Choi Hyun-ji whetted her appetite.
Ugh-.
Choi Hyun-ji grabbed the shoulder of Ha Yoon-ha, who was next to her.
Then, Ha Yoon-ha looked back at Choi Hyun-ji in surprise, and Choi Hyun-ji smiled brightly at the girl.
“Sir, I want to meet him. Is there any way?”
“… … .”
Ha Yoon-ha’s eyes alternately looked at Choi Hyun-ji and then at her hand on his shoulder.
And then he coldly pushed her hand away.
“Let it be. It is difficult for even ordinary citizens to meet the monarch. No, it is downright impossible. The monarch is so busy… … And you are a wanderer, aren’t you?”
“hmm…….”
The crowd gathered in front of the police station began to disperse one by one.
In the meantime, Choi Hyun-ji thought deeply and then continued speaking.
“What if I know information that would be offensive to your Majesty?”
“Huh. Who would believe that?”
“It’s true. I have proof, too.”
“… … Even if there really is such information, there is no way to meet the monarch in principle. The monarch is busy working for us day and night. Now, your time to go out is over. Now go to sleep.”
Phew-.
After saying that, Ha Yoon turned around coldly.
Choi Hyun-ji, who was looking at the girl’s back, smiled bitterly.
‘He’s really crazy. Crazy. How can someone be so crazy about someone? … … Even a piglet from the North wouldn’t be that crazy.’
Choi Hyun-ji followed Ha Yoon-ha, who was turning around in a hurry.
And he said with a big smile.
“Then, can I meet the chief? The key chiefs who make up the force? I heard that the chief of order can be met at the resident level. Was it the newspaper office? If the secretary asks, it should be possible.”
Towering.
At that sound, Ha Yoon-ha was startled and stopped in her tracks, looking up at Choi Hyun-ji.
He had never told Choi Hyun-ji about the manager.
Moreover, she was aware of the policies laid down by the Ministry of Order.
She’s only been here for a day.
It was a surprisingly enormous amount of information.
‘The wanderer… … is he a wanderer?’
Players who live off information.
In the dark streets intermittently illuminated by torches, Choi Hyun-ji was wearing tight ripped jeans, a white short-sleeved T-shirt, a rider jacket, and walkers, unlike others.
At first glance, it feels like you’re living in a different world all by yourself.
It wasn’t cold, and I wasn’t wearing a coat, but I didn’t really care about that.
Anyway, there was something different about Choi Yeon-ji.
With the residents here.
“Do as you wish. If you can. But it will still be impossible to see the monarch.”
Even so, he is still a wanderer.
I thought there would be limitations.
But Ha Yoon-ha could not have predicted the waves she would create.
After hearing the answer she wanted, Choi Hyun-ji smiled and saluted the girl.
“Yes- yes. Cafeteria Manager!”
“Don’t call me that!”
Ha Yoon-ha lost her temper and strode briskly toward the main gate.
Choi Hyun-ji, who was looking at the girl’s back, laughed heartily.
“You’re cute.”
Then I went back into the vagabond’s quarters.
Because the curfew was approaching.
* * *
Jigyeong (地京), the name given when the first power declared the name of a new city.
And the country has made countless strides over the past year.
There are two reasons why Jigyeong was able to grow faster than other regions: first, King Park Ji-su quickly unified Dongangu, and second, there was a huge production plant in Dongangu.
After the world was destroyed, people’s concept of ‘luxury’ changed.
Traditional luxury goods included things like gold, jewels, luxury brands, high-quality food, and fur.
But today’s luxury goods, if we were to define them in one word, are ‘products of civilization.’
Ramen, canned food, carbonated drinks, processed foods, flashlights, batteries, cassettes, medicine, cigarettes, etc. have become luxury items.
As manufacturing plants no longer operate, people’s luxury items have changed.
And the manufacturing plants that Jikyeong had stored numerous luxury goods.
This was something that would make the monarchs of other regions drool.
In other words, the area was now a battlefield.
It was as if the Korean Peninsula was in the same position in the international situation.
They had fought many battles, and were still fighting.
Phew… … ! Phew huuuuut!!!
A bright red line of blood was gushing from Park Ji-soo’s shoulder as he was carried on a stretcher.
The best doctors in the region gathered together and moved the monarch to the operating table.
“Quickly! Quickly… … !”
“Hurry up!”
Rattling-!
It was an operating table without any proper equipment, but it could be dangerous if the arrow embedded in the shoulder was not removed.
“Start the surgery right away. You’ve lost too much blood… …!”
“Hey Nurse Jung… …! What are you doing, quickly!”
University hospital operating table.
There, the light shone on Park Ji-soo, who was bleeding.
Light bulbs and medicines were the most expensive of the luxuries.
But in order to save Park Ji-soo, he could have used as many of those luxuries as he wanted.
Doctors and nurses rushed to prepare for surgery.
But then.
“Uuuuuuu… … Uuuuuu… …!!! Uuaaaaaaah!!!!”
Phew-! Gustle… … !
The doctors and nurses preparing for the surgery were shocked.
Park Ji-soo, who was on the operating table, suddenly had a seizure and pulled out the arrow that was embedded in her shoulder.
Blood spurted everywhere, even hitting the light fixture.
She clenched her teeth and trembled.
But the look in her eyes was different.
Park Ji-soo exposed the whites of her eyes, bulged her veins, and clenched her fists.
Even though my blood was pouring out, and I felt like I was going to die at any moment, I had no strength left in my body.
Her will, her desire, her anger could not be hidden.
“I’ll kill you… … I’ll kill you… … ! That bastard… … !!!!!!!”
Doctors and nurses trembled in fear before the monarch’s wrath.
It has been four months since the Jigyeong and Uiwang forces started fighting.
It was time to end this war.
Because too much material and manpower was consumed.
At that moment, when Park Ji-soo was trembling with anger, another annoying notification window appeared before his eyes.
[War between the Manan First Force and the Third Force has been declared!]
It was not just the fact that the Third Power was at war, but the man who was keeping a close eye on the First Power of Manan.
Kang Shi-on.
It meant that his forces had finally begun a war of conquest.
“Hoo… … Hoo… … Hoo… … .”
Park Ji-soo looked at the notification window clearly, even as she gasped for breath and bled.
Her pupils were trembling slightly.
