[Episode 12] The Savior (4)
Hadong Geon looked down at the subway and said.
“Move down.”
It was the height of an average three-story building, but it was not a burdensome height for them, whose average level was in their mid-30s.
So the fact that the bridge was broken wasn’t that important.
‘The question is who did it?’
How many beings can destroy a bridge made of concrete?
‘There are no large footprints around, so it wasn’t done by a Cyclops.’
Moreover, the surrounding buildings were relatively intact compared to the areas swept by the Cyclops.
So, that must be the work of another being.
Anyway, it was said that there was something nearby that could destroy a concrete bridge.
[Everyone, be careful.]
The place where the Hadonggun party came down was near Dongrae Station.
To get to the destination, Jangjeon-dong, I had to pass through all the subway stations connecting Myeongnyun-Oncheonjang-Busan National University-Jangjeon Station.
There is about 4km left.
As they came down from the subway tracks, the number of monsters rushing in at once increased, but Ha Dong-geon’s party skillfully fought off the monsters and advanced.
The most notable performance was by Kang Deok-su’s steel golems, who provided body bread.
‘If we keep going like this, we’ll be able to arrive safely.’
With their skills, there will be no problem.
‘You said it was the same apartment complex!’
In our experience, living in an apartment complex has the highest survival rate.
This is because it is a structure that is difficult for goblins, the most common monster, to invade, and because the population density is high, it is easy for people to band together.
‘I hope you are safe’
That was when.
‘huh?’
As the bell rang, I widened my field of vision by one and checked the hallway.
There were six men and women standing there.
‘What’s going on?’
Things like this have happened occasionally in the past too.
People came to me for many different reasons.
Some people beg, some argue, some get angry, and sometimes even offer deals.
‘Since I left the work to Kim Da-bin, this kind of thing hasn’t happened much.’
Thinking that it was about time for them to come, I moved to the front door with a light heart to greet them.
Crunch.
He opened the water with an invisible hand.
People who made eye contact with me had rabbit eyes.
[Citizen Jang Seong-jun’s trust level increases.]
[Citizen Hong Kyung-taek’s credibility increases.]
[Citizen Lim Kyung-hoon’s credibility increases.]
——–
There was only one case where trust increased so rapidly just by facing me.
‘Is this your first time seeing me?’
So, that means these are people who came in recently.
‘Well, that’s to be expected, since thousands of new people have come in.’
Originally, I was planning to send it straight to Kim Da-bin.
But then one of them opened his mouth and changed his mind.
“Please lend me your gun.”
A single word from Jang Seong-jun, who seemed to be their representative, made me curious about them.
“Is it a gun?”
“yes.”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t give out guns to just anyone.”
Even in a world where monsters rule, there was only one reason for gun control.
‘I don’t need guns in my territory’
The area declared as a corner of the house provided complete protection from monsters.
Only people with citizenship and animals with my permission live within the territory.
Not a single bug can survive here without my permission, and any monsters that might harbor hostility towards me will die the moment their territory expands.
A complete safe zone.
Why would you need a gun in a place like this?
Jang Seong-jun said.
“We have to get out of the area.”
People who have a reason to go out into a world full of monsters.
Such people have no choice but to need guns.
‘It’s always welcome when the number of citizens who can hunt monsters increases’
Even without that, the level of the surrounding monsters was rising, and the number of hunters was decreasing.
“So you’re saying you’re going out to hunt monsters?”
It was likely a hunt using the safe zone, but I thought it was worth supporting these brave souls with firearms.
But Jang Seong-jun shook his head and answered.
“no.”

“…yes?”
“We’re not going to hunt monsters. We’re going to rescue our families.”
“!!”
It wasn’t just me and my family who were separated from each other due to the appearance of monsters.
Everyone who lived their own life in their own space was cut off from their families.
The choices people had were as varied as the number of people who gathered in my area.
Those who are focused on surviving for now, praying for their families to be safe, those who are despairing and giving up, thinking that their families are dead, and those who are risking their lives to go see their families like now.
It wasn’t something where there was a set answer.
This is because there are probably quite a few people who die after having mustered up the courage to go outside.
[Citizen Seo Jeong-ah has passed away.]
Even at this very moment, there are citizens facing death.
As the population of citizens increased, so did the number of messages reporting the deaths of citizens.
Not all of them just died helplessly in the room.
There may have been cases where people bravely went out to see their families only to be killed by monsters.
‘They are just like me.’
After losing sleep over concerns about his family and constantly thinking about what he could do, he finally decided to take action himself. Even at the risk of his life.
And you must have come here in a desperate mood.
‘I can’t help everyone.’
However, it was possible to at least provide weapons to those who had come here in desperation.
“Are the six of you gathered here leaving?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Jiiing—
He was immediately given six pistols and live ammunition.
And he wanted to give them bigger weapons.
“Are you guys willing to sign a contract with me?”
Although I hadn’t even signed a contract with the hunting team yet, I wanted to give them a chance first.
“Thank you! Anything, anything! If only I could go save my family~!”
The contract of subordination had some rather tricky terms.
He spoke first to Jang Seong-jun, who accepted the offer.
“Please kneel.”
Jang Seong-jun was slightly embarrassed, but knelt down as he was told.
“Ku, knelt down.”
The reason why Mom didn’t fill the 100 people despite having the extraordinary ability of the contract of subordination.
I walked up to him, put my hand on his head and said,
Despite the embarrassment,
—
“Please obey me from now on.”
——
All right.”
The moment I heard his oath of obedience.
Phew!
The bright light that emanated from my body was absorbed into Jang Seong-jun’s body and disappeared.
and.

An unexpected jackpot has been hit.
“What was that light just now?”
“What? What happened?”
“Are you okay, Seongjun?”
It was necessary to tell Jang Seong-jun, who was kneeling with an expression that said he didn’t understand English, what had happened.
‘Store opening, buy one tangerine’
Jiiing―
I held a tangerine in one hand and gave the quest to Jang Seong-jun.
《Quest Granting》
Quest Content: Use telekinesis to lift the tangerine.
Time limit: 10 minutes 00 seconds
Reward: Increased mental power.
Failure Penalty: None.
“uh?”
I held out a tangerine in front of Jang Seong-jun, who was surprised by the quest window that suddenly appeared.
Jang Seong-jun, who was looking back and forth between the quest window and the tangerine, hesitated for a moment before glaring at the tangerine and starting to frown.
Okay then.
“Huh?”
“What? It reminds me of a tangerine.”
“Is that what Seongjun is doing?”
When the tangerine that rose into the air from my palm reached its peak,
Phew!
Jang Seong-jun must have used too much force because the tangerine exploded.
Jang Seong-jun was shocked when he saw that and apologized.
“Ah! I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
“it’s okay.”
The tangerine juice was already flowing down the transparent wall in the hallway before it reached my face.
[Citizen Jang Seong-jun’s trust level has reached 50.]
[Loyalty is open.]
[Citizen Jang Seong-jun’s loyalty has surpassed 30.]

The remaining five all awakened abilities of D- to C-class level, but it was satisfying enough to just rescue Jang Seong-jun.
Now that you have completed your registration, you will be able to provide small support.
“Did you say ○○ Apartment in Yeonji-dong?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I wish you good luck.”
“thank you.”
When Jang Seong-jun and his party left, Ha Dong-geon’s party arrived near the next station, Myeongnyun Station.
“Ku …
A monster believed to be the culprit that destroyed the above-ground railroad tracks from Dongnae Station to Myeongnyun Station was blocking the path of Ha Dong-gun’s party.
“Twin Head Ogre (Lv. 45)”
It was a monster as big as a house, armed with muscles that looked like they would explode all over its body.
The characteristic feature was that it had two heads.
The monster threw a punch at the Hadonggun party.
Kwaaaaang!
A fist of tremendous destructive power shook the ground.
at that time.
-Beep!
A giant crow attacked the ogre’s left head.
“Creak!”
When the bastard’s gaze turned to the black one,
Taaang—!
A refreshing cracking sound came from the ogre’s right shoulder.
Moon Byung-ho, who teleported while wearing invisibility, shot a pistol into the ogre’s ear.
“Kwaaaaak!”
The ogre screamed and covered his right ear.
The head on the good side looked at his shoulder, but there was nothing there.
“Attack!”
Before he could come to his senses, ten armored knights were at his feet, swinging their halberds.
Phew! Bam!
The sharp axe blade dug mercilessly into the ogre’s instep.
“Kwaaak!”
The moment when the ogre kicks the armored knights in frustration.
Phew!
An arrow of light flew towards the bastard’s left face and exploded.
Pavababak!!
An arrow of light split into dozens of pieces and struck the ogre’s face. In the process, the eye on the left side of his head completely lost its light.
“Kaaaah!”
The ogre covered his face with both hands,
“Cream!”
Taking advantage of the gap, the personified Owen Joo made his move.
Woohoo
When Oh Eun-joo, who had received Kim Da-jeong’s blessing, swung his claws, one of the bastard’s ankles was broken.
“Ku …
The ogre roared, his hair on the top of his head furious. The Hadonggun party paused for a moment at the shout filled with fear, and the ogre began to swing its fists wildly.
Kwaaang! Kwaaang!
The ground shook as if there had been an earthquake.
But there was nothing left near the bastard.
Owen Ju has already left, and Kang Deok-su’s knights have already been de-summoned and disappeared.
“Kuaaaaak!”
Only the poor land was destroyed.
and.
Wedge!
An arrow of light flew towards the ogre’s bloody face.
Pooboobooboo!
It even took away the ogre’s remaining good eye.
“Ahhhhhh!”
With this, the ogre lost all four of his eyes.
By then the roars from the two heads had changed into screams.
The indignant screams of the hunted.
It was like the screams of countless people who had died at the hands of ogres.
“Phew.”
Hadonggeon was standing in front of the ogre, who had completely lost his sight, holding a spear.
Woohoo!
A black aura emerged from the blade of the spear held by Hadonggeon.
At the same time, he threw the window with all his might.
“Ugh!”
Wheaaaaaaaaa!
The black energy that emerged from the blade spread throughout the spear’s entire body as it flew, and its momentum gradually grew.
Hurrruk!
It was as if black flames had engulfed the window.
When it finally reached the ogre’s chest,
Kwaaaaang!
The ogre’s upper body was blown away with a huge explosion.
[You have hunted the Twin Head Ogre (Lv. 45).]
[Gain a large amount of experience points.]
[7,223,743,090 won was deposited into the wallet of the absolute owner of the house.]

The expansion of the territory began with the expected suffering.
