321. Operation Name: Mountain Climbing
“Marie, if that person does something wrong, Marie will be sad.”
Dr. Park Byung-jun recalled Marie’s words.
He regarded Marie as his daughter.
If you suddenly say you want to adopt her as your daughter without any reason, it’s a relationship where you can’t say anything even if you ask if she really is your daughter.
How is the mind like that?
This is a child that I raised by dressing, feeding, and putting to bed myself.
Aida is the one who bloomed a new flower in the heart of the doctor who had forgotten about love and the like, which was like a desert.
The little bluebird he had tried to protect had now found its nest. The doctor only wished for Marie to be happy.
nevertheless.
They say human desires are endless.
The doctor also had hopes.
I wanted to hear the words daughter and father.
If that didn’t work out, I wanted to be a little closer.
However, since the wind is just the wind, I tried to be content with just watching.
“Okay, these three medicines are the only ones that are right. You shouldn’t take any more medicine, do you understand? You shouldn’t do anything wrong. Hey, can’t you just not go out? Why are you doing this now?”
Dr. Park Byung-jun spoke with spit flying out of his mouth.
The tone at the end was half-pleading.
Kim Jeong-ah wiped the spittle that had splattered on her cheek with the back of her hand. Her hand was wearing a new compression-reinforced glove.
I clenched and unclenched my fist a few times and felt a pressure that I really liked.
At this level, the quality was higher than the basic equipment I received during my time in the Immortal Special Forces.
“Are you listening?”
The doctor said with a sad face. Kim Jeong-ah nodded and answered.
“yes.”
“Let me recap. How many pills did you say I could eat?”
The doctor asked.
“yes.”
Jeong-ah answered. Besides the gloves, I also liked the combat boots.
I heard that they used bounce leather for the lining, Kevlar and some other new materials, and added things like adamantium synthetic fiber.
What is certain is that these boots are incomparably better than the ones I received during my time in the Immortal Special Forces.
When I twisted my ankle, it bent smoothly. There was no discomfort at all. But I heard that the strength of the weapon was enough to deflect most bullets.
Bam!
The doctor slammed the table.
“no!”
The togarev on top of it shook.
Kim Jeong-ah calmly put the shaking gun back in place and finished stretching her ankles.
“Huh, are you listening to me?”
The doctor asked, catching his breath.
“yes.”
In reply, Kim Jeong-ah took care of the janggu instruments.
“Please, I’m going crazy. Why are you leaving?”
The doctor was half-sobbing.
“yes.”
Kim Jeong-ah answered reflexively and filled Togarev’s tank.
They were all special bullets.
I also got all the improved equipment including the bow, cash hippo, and fingerprint recognition grenade.
In the meantime, the doctor gave up.
“Okay, but you have to keep in mind. I’ll make sure to tell the boss that your body isn’t fully recovered yet.”
“yes.”
Kim Jeong-ah answered and then took a step back.
My condition was excellent as my body was in better condition than ever before.
It wouldn’t have mattered even if my condition was at its worst.
The opponent is Prometheus.
The enemy of my parents and the enemy of my life.
If they were involved, she couldn’t rest.
At that moment, Kim Jeong-ah’s mind was filled with only thoughts about killing Prometheus.
* * *
Kang Purum, this kid, isn’t it true that you brought in an alien and raised him?
Or maybe I made eye contact with an alien.
When I told him that I would be away for a while due to special circumstances, Kang Purum asked if I expected a fight, and I nodded.
Because of that, the departure of Operation ‘Mountaineering’ was delayed by three days.
Meanwhile, Kang Purum distributed prototype equipment.
“Is this my customized gear?”
When I saw the fingerprint recognition grenade, I asked.
“No, basic janggu. Team leader Lee Jung-bong’s request.”
Kang Purum said those words and locked himself in his lab.
Thanks to that, only the deputy director was busy again.
“It’s a suit made from a previously developed adamantium alloy fiber. And this is the mask.”

The suit was tight around the body.
The mask covered the mouth and had a two-way communicator.
They said that only the eye area was specially treated, and that was indeed the case.
“Did you put the triangle field in to prevent your eyes from getting hurt?”
“It cost me some money.”
The deputy director said, sticking out his flat chest.
It was something to be proud of.
It is not a constant-use device. It is said that a new spell gear product has been added that activates mana by detecting impacts exceeding a certain speed with a sensor.
Of course, it was the work of Kang Hye-min’s mother, the owner of the black market.
Kang Purum and Son and Feet fit together amazingly.
It fits so well that I wonder if Hye-min’s new father is Kang Purum.
Oh, that’s a terrible thought.
The second-hand brother said that it is uncertain whether Kang Purum’s research will be commercialized.
I was sure.
This works. The only problem is that I have no intention of selling it.
At least for now, I have no intention of selling.
“You made it out of that iron plate? Did you name it?”
I think Griffin fiber contains 2% adamantium.
Looking at that reminded me of making a 20% adamantium plate.
“Yes, twenty.”
The name is simple, but I could see the ambition of the Gangpurum Research Team contained in the name.
It currently contains 20% adamantium, but the ambition is to create something more.
By the way, is it true that a product can be made so quickly just by making the raw materials?
“Thank you for your hard work.”
The deputy director says, “Yes, there must be a thick story behind this one twenty suit that I haven’t seen.
You must have stayed up all night and suffered so much for this.
“It was hard to adjust to leaving work on time but still having fun.”
hmm?
“Team Leader Kang has already done all the drafts and I’m just organizing the rest, but I still don’t have enough time. Do you know that ten researchers here are slower than me? I had a hard time because of my self-destructive feelings.”
Well, there wasn’t any thick story that I didn’t know.
But it’s still hard.
“Everyone, rest and go get your bonus.”
It’s a feeling.
Every time something like this happens, my older brother says that the company is struggling because of me, but he’s being so stubborn when he says that our company earns so little money.
Combat suit, boots and gloves made of the same material.
The quality of basic equipment, including grenades, has changed.
It was worth the three day wait.
While I was waiting, I asked Rose if she was in a hurry.
“I can’t be sure whether it’s already too late or whether I knew about it in advance.”
It’s so urgent. It means that we have no idea what the terrorist group is doing.
Still, it was not something I could just set off on.
The route into the Lost North was also far from ordinary.
The more thorough the preparation, the better.
“It’s impossible to guess what danger it poses, but this is the only way to know.”
As a former terrorist, Rose knew a lot of loopholes.
The route to Mt. Baekdu is a tunnel dug during the war.
To be exact, it is a tunnel dug by North Korea.
Although I haven’t seen it yet, it’s widely accepted that North Korea has dug a hole so diligently that they’ve definitely found a mole shapeshifter somewhere.
Rose knew a few of those tunnels.
With that, the route was confirmed.
I devoted myself to training for three days.
If there weren’t people who would talk to me from time to time, I would have been truly devoted.
Sometimes, just looking at the blue sky and white clouds makes me feel good and things go well.
For me, this operation was like that.
Because there must be a lot of friends you miss so much.
I even wanted to name the operation Ojakgyo instead of Climbing.
So, I naturally gained strength in training.
Basic training in immortality and transformation.
Impact-based combat training.
A conversation between mother and Marie.
The part where Jeong Gi-nam faints was also mixed in.
As time passed like that, three days passed quickly.
We moved at dawn three days later.
It was an operation that began based on information that no one, including the government, knew about yet.
“Can you make sure we don’t get caught on CCTV on the way there?”
Just before leaving, I asked the little girl I had rescued, the brain princess.
“That shouldn’t be that hard. The NS security server was more annoying. Hey, do you have any cigarettes?”
What about smoking? This was a forced smoking ban.
Dr. Park Byeong-jun, who has dark circles under his eyes, strongly advised Jeong-ah not to overdo it, and examined her as well, leaving a rather impressive review.
“I think you’ll be fine as long as you don’t overdo it and take care of your health.”
Taking care of your health means eating well, excreting well, sleeping well, avoiding bad things, and eating good things.
But what about cigarettes?
bean.
Instead of cigarettes, I gave him chestnuts as a gift.
“It hurts, what are you doing?”
“If you misbehave, I’ll spank you.”
“It’s s*xual harassment. You crazy bastard.”
First of all, I have to figure out what to do with her snout. I can’t leave her to her mother because of her body, so Hye-min would be the best fit.
Of course, this will happen after this operation is over.
Although it was said that living an example is also a health management, it is not something that can be solved with that alone, so this too will be a problem for the future.
Besides that, there are mountains of things to solve.
I focused on the present. The last time we met, I got beaten up by Crocodile, so what about this time?
I was very curious about the results.
In those eyes, I saw a rose that gave strength to my eyes.
If you don’t look closely, you can’t tell, but his hands are tense. He’s clenching his fist, and if you open his hand, you’ll see fingernail marks all over his palm.
I could tell that he had complicated feelings without even asking.
There was nothing I could say to that.
I closed my eyes. I was going to do some image training or something.
During that training, a funny thought flashed through my head and appeared on my face without me knowing.
“Son, are you having good dreams? You shouldn’t have wet dreams while sleeping in the car.”
I laughed without realizing it, but my mother saw it.
“No. I just dozed off for a bit.”
“If you have a hard time at night, come visit me. Do you know the password to my house?”
Hye-min whispered.
“What do you know? Go away.”
My mother smiled happily when she saw that.
“There won’t be much time left until I see my grandchildren.”
“No, no. Stop talking nonsense. Hye-min is acting up even more.”
“Mom, I just said what I felt.”
“If you tell me what you feel twice, I will bury your son in society. Mother.”
“It’s good to be healthy, son.”
What are you doing in the middle of an important operation?
“You’re so spirited. It’s that time.”
Rose, who was listening from the side, said.
Only then did I realize why my mother was acting that way.
It was for Rose, whose lungs were shrunken with tension.
“You’re going to get really squeezed if this is a trap, so don’t let your guard down. You’re a really nice rose.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. You’re planting a spell that’s like a time bomb in my head. What kind of trap is that?”
“You can do it because you are the craziest Filipino kid I know.”
“Do you know any other Filipinos besides me?”
“no.”
“Pfft.”
Hye-min burst out laughing at those words. I don’t know where the point of the joke is.
He’s the type of kid who stays still when you poke his armpit to make him laugh, but laughs out loud when you tap the back of his hand.
“… … I become strange when I talk to you.”
Rose declared surrender.
After exchanging a few frivolous words, I had a question and asked Hye-min.
“Why aren’t you jealous of Rose?”
I think I did this before.
“Oh, there’s no need for that.”
What the hell is this?
Well, whatever I said, it was just empty talk.
We arrived at our destination.
It was a place where there might be a military base.
“You can’t get through MZ. It’s too inefficient.”
So, tunnels are the answer.
The tunnel entrance we arrived at under Rose’s guidance had a welded iron door.
“Marie will open it.”
“Okay. It’s noisy for nothing.”
When Mari tried to tear it off with force, Ki-nam stepped in.
Our boy took out a knife and cut the joint of the iron door.
Every time I touched it, a squeaking sound was heard, and then it was cut off with a thud.
It was an optical knife that fired laser beams instantaneously.
It was in the basic equipment that Kang Purum gave me.
They each said that the clothes they were wearing were worth the price of an apartment in Seoul.
Thinking about it that way, I felt more reassured.
In the special world, there is a law called conservation of cost.
An item that is honestly made with money is usually worth its price.
Although it was said jokingly, people tended to believe such words.
Because it is wisdom that I realized while living without having to study it separately.
Thump.
Marie stepped through the open door and moved it to the side.
“It’s dark.”
“It would have been a bit scary if it was bright. It’s a closed tunnel, so that means there must be someone there.”
I took the lead, leaving behind the chattering of the mixed-race pair, Gwi-tae and Yo-han.
It was natural for me to take the lead.
I’m probably the most responsive person on this team.
Because he is an immortal with super-fast regeneration.
So I stepped into the dark tunnel.
It seemed as if the deep, black darkness, like an abyss, was welcoming me.
The stuffy underground air rose upward.
The mask automatically activated its air purification system.
The first thing I saw in the darkness, inside the tunnel, was something strangely glowing.
The immortal’s senses moved and he perceived his opponent.
“atmosphere.”
I spat out a word and crossed my hands and ran them over my sides.
Soon two knives were in my hands.
