I Picked a Mobile From Another World - Chapter 213

Episode 213 [Foreshadowing (2)]

Ta-ta-tang!

Bullets rained down before the U.S. soldiers could even leave the building.

“It’s the enemy!”

Since I was caught, there was no need for hand signals. Everyone took cover behind the wall at Lieutenant Colonel Colin’s shout.

American soldiers fired their guns through windows and doors. Bullets that escaped the silencer poured out of the building. A strange sound was heard along with the sound of a

bullet

hitting the ground.

Ting, ting, ting

. It was the sound of a bullet ricocheting. Colin looked out through the window.

Soldiers wearing black body armor were approaching in a low posture.

Most of the bullets fired by his subordinates did not hit the soldiers, but the few lucky ones that did hit only bounced off their body armor and helmets. ‘Is bulletproof vest good? Or a powerful awakener who can even block bullets?’

It was both, but Colin had no way of knowing.

The soldiers’ uniforms were not regular army uniforms. The weapons carried in the unusual-looking body armor did not look ordinary either.

Guns, swords and spears. They all had patterns drawn on them. At least the enemies were all awakened.

‘Damn it was a trap too.’

I noticed it when I saw the empty building, but there was no need to confirm and kill him like this.

Ta ta ta ta!

Wow!

With the sound of a gunshot again, a soldier hiding behind the wall fell down, spouting blood. A hole had just been created in the wall where the soldier was hiding.

Enemy bullets even penetrated the walls.

The enemy was approaching, blocking the bullets with his body, but our troops were falling down after being hit by the enemy’s bullets.

But there was still a way.

Colin grabbed the headset microphone and called a helicopter.

“This is Mouse. Owl respond. It was a trap. The enemy is attacking outside the building. “Please support us!”

-Received. However, the enemy’s location is not confirmed by the infrared camera. Just wait a moment. I will check with a drone.

Buuuuung.

I could hear drones passing over the building.

bang! bang!

And then the explosion sound.

Colin could see the drones falling, spewing sparks and flames out the window.

And other drones could be seen passing behind the flames.

It was a black drone I had never seen before.

Drones with weapons that looked like guns at the bottom were heading up the building, past the falling friendly drones.

These were drones that I had not even known existed until a little while ago. Moreover, even now, there is no sound of the drone.

At first glance, these drones looked much better than the friendly drones.

-The drones have been shot down! The enemy who carried out the attack has not been confirmed. I would like you to specify the enemy’s coordinates on the ground.

A laser measuring device attached to an infrared scope would have been enough to send me coordinates, but that wasn’t important right now.

“Get out of this area immediately! What destroyed our planes were enemy drones! “We’re heading to where the owls are!”

-drone? No flying objects are detected on radar.

“I told you to leave now!”

When Colin started talking, only then did the helicopters hear him.

-Received. First, I will leave my current location. I will go behind the mountain and wait. If you send us the coordinates, we will start applying right away… What is that?

Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang!

As communication was cut off, loud explosions were heard one after another.

Colin closed his eyes. I could tell without looking.

“Where did the operation become exposed?”

If they had fallen into a trap, it was clear that someone would have exposed the operation. Or maybe it was a wrong operation from the beginning.

Ta-ta-tang! bang! bang!

Even as he was communicating, the battle continued and soldiers were falling one after another.

At that time, Sergeant Mark hurriedly came next to me.

“The enemy has not launched a proper attack yet. “We must escape now.”

“I know! “But the way out is blocked!”

“All you have to do is set up the awakened people as shields! “It will give us time to escape.”

Colin looked at his boss with a puzzled expression. But when I looked around, I realized that it wasn’t just my boss’s problem.

Soldiers were lying down. And the remaining soldiers were standing on the wall, showering bullets at the approaching enemy.

However, there were also soldiers retreating from the wall. Ordinary soldiers. They were not participating in the fight now.

Sergeant Mark was speaking to him as a representative of the common soldier.

“Is this a protest? And don’t you know that I too am an awakened person?”

The lieutenant colonel looked at his superior and growled.

“I know. But isn’t the lieutenant colonel different from them? “They are not humans, they are just fighting machines.”

Everyone in the unit knew that the operation had failed.

However, the only subordinates who could think of running away were ordinary soldiers.

As the superior said, the awakened people only followed orders and stopped the enemy.

Among the awakened soldiers, there were some who were shot, but they did not fall down right away.

The walls, body armor, and shields blocked bullets to some extent.

Honestly, the U.S. military needed more of those awakened people. But no one wanted to die.

The guns of ordinary soldiers were slowly coming towards him.

It seemed like he was planning on killing him if necessary.

Colin was able to realize once again why several frontline units had been ruined by mutiny recently.

The higher-ups treated it as a riot by awakened people, but in the end it was the work of ordinary soldiers.

Colin looked dejected.

How could it be that the U.S. military, the world’s most powerful force, had become such an absurd army? I couldn’t figure out where the mistake was.

Colin checked the soldiers who participated. They were all ordinary soldiers who survived.

Honestly, it looked like it could be overpowered. But he couldn’t think of a reason for that. Even if they suppressed it, they would only be defeated by the enemy.

Colin nodded. He blocked the microphone with his hand and spoke to the general soldiers.

“Okay, let’s do that. “Follow me.”

Hearing Colin’s words, the regular soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.

He removed his hand from the microphone and gave another command.

“All soldiers will defend their current position with death!”

“yes!”

“yes!”

The Awakened soldiers responded in unison.

Colonel Colin looked at the awakened people with gloomy eyes.

He began to retreat back into the building. Ordinary soldiers also followed him inside.

The awakened ones were left behind.

But they continued to fight.

puck! puck!

Arms flew off and legs fell off. However, the awakened soldiers did not leave their positions.

A moment later, EV awakeners wearing black body armor jumped in from outside.

They held a sword and spear encrusted with mana stones in one hand, and a translucent shield in the other. It was a mana shield made from a mana stone ring item.

The grades were different and the equipment was also different. The fight ended quickly.

However, the EV awakeners looked at the fallen American soldiers with tired faces.

“I heard about it, but I didn’t know it would be this bad. “You don’t surrender and you attack even if your limbs are cut off.”

Vasily shook his head at the words of the other awakened person. He was equally surprised.

He created a large shield and pressed the enemy to the ground, and the enemy pounded on the shield he had created until his limbs were broken.

I barely managed to knock him out, but no matter how I looked at him, the enemy was already in trouble.

The other soldiers did the same.

Most of them lost their lives by resisting until they died, and the few that survived were barely knocked out and captured.

This made it pointless to attack without using heavy weapons.

It was the first operation properly undertaken, and it was almost embarrassing to report the results.

“11 deaths. Three Awakened people were taken prisoner. Most of them are slander. I will treat you with a potion. The remaining personnel then retreated into the building. “I will chase after you right away.”

-Things are a little strange. First, please withdraw with the prisoners. There is no need to worry as drones and aircraft are currently under surveillance.

EV operator. Vasily clicked his tongue at Eve’s voice.

As expected from Kay, the operation seemed to rarely go well.

“The order has arrived. “We are withdrawing with prisoners!”

Vasily, leader of EV Special Team Group 2, immediately left the building with his group.

*

Same time.

The old man who returned to the mainland was lost in thought as he looked out the window at the sea.

It was clear that an operation would be taking place in Korea for some time.

It was an operation that might be the first step in Japan’s revival.

“I hope it succeeds.”

“You will succeed.”

The secretary who was driving answered his words.

The Mitsubishi Group Chairman frowned.

How dare you interrupt your own self-talk?

Since I didn’t have anyone, I was using a smart guy as my secretary, but I didn’t like the secretary more and more.

I didn’t like the view on the other side of the sea either.

The ancient city of Nagoya seemed dead.

The streets were empty and there was no smoke coming from the factories.

Nagoya became the temporary capital instead of Tokyo, where monsters still run rampant, but this place also did not show the liveliness of the past.

The chairman didn’t even like the car he was currently driving.

It was an ordinary mid-sized car prepared to avoid people’s attention.

There was no wall between the driver’s seat and the back seat, and the ride was uncomfortable.

It was a car that I would never have ridden if it weren’t for a secret meeting.

The car stopped in front of a warehouse in Nagoya Port.

There were other cars parked nearby. It seemed like they came first.

The chairman got out of the car and clicked his tongue.

We’re in the process of rebuilding the government, but there’s factional fighting.

Military and Liberal Democratic Party members. And the former cabinet dregs and industrialists were divided into two factions and were snarling.

It wasn’t a thought he would have thought of as the leader of one faction, but as always, he excluded himself from all matters.

“I’ll wait.”

Without answering the secretary’s greeting, he picked up his cane and headed to the meeting place.

It was an old and isolated warehouse.

I also didn’t like the new meeting location that the secretary had chosen.

He entered through the slightly open warehouse door.

Inside the warehouse, elderly and mature people were gathered.

When he entered, everyone stood up and bowed their heads.

The chairman smiled with satisfaction as he received the greeting. The two years of hard work were worth it.

“Sit down. “I have a lot to talk about.”

Desks and chairs were arranged in a circle in the center of the empty warehouse. All the chairs were filled and the highest seats were available. There was only one seat left.

It was the chairman’s position. The old man walked slowly and sat down.

“I heard that you visited Tsushima yesterday. Thank you for your hard work.”

“You went through all the trouble to go there yourself. “You could have asked me to do it.”

As the chairman sat down, flattery continued from all directions.

“It’s great that you chose a place like this. “The stains on the floor look like magic circles.”

As the flattery continued, there was also a failed flattery.

The atmosphere suddenly calmed down. The middle-aged man who spoke did not know what to do, and the chairman glanced around.

Just as he said, there was a faint pattern drawn on the dusty floor of the warehouse.

It looked like the patterns drawn on the mana generator and items had been drawn on the floor.

But the chairman shook his head. It was clear that it was a stain that had formed over time anyway.

“Let’s end the nonsense here. “Let’s start the meeting.”

Everyone nodded at the chairman’s words.

*

Lieutenant Colonel Colin and the soldiers entered a room filled with patterns.

It was the last room they entered.

The room where the target, Helmet Man, is located. But this room was just empty.

“Why did you come back here?”

Sergeant Mark, representing the soldiers, asked again.

I followed Colonel Colin, who wanted to escape, but arrived at a dead-end room.

The hands of the soldiers holding the guns were gaining strength again.

Colonel Colin shook his head at the sight of his men.

“Finally, can’t you set an example as a soldier of the United States?”

The subordinates looked puzzled at the lieutenant colonel’s words.

The lieutenant colonel put down the backpack he was carrying on the floor. It was a not very large backpack.

“Since when did U.S. soldiers give up an operation so easily?”

He opened the backpack and operated the switches on the equipment inside.

“Could it be that you received different orders?”

The boss asked him with a stern expression. The sergeant’s gun was already pointed at him.

The lieutenant colonel chuckled.

“Kidnap the target or kill if kidnapping is not possible.”

Up to this point, this was all the story I heard during the briefing.

The lieutenant colonel continued.

“And when all else failed, we were instructed to blow up the area with a bomb.”

After finishing setting the timer, he stood up.

Too, too, too.

The small sound of time passing came to the ears of the awakened people.

“Turn it off right now! “You want to live too!”

The lieutenant colonel shook his head at the sergeant’s shout.

“no. I am a soldier. Soldiers are beings who must follow the orders of the state. Otherwise, soldiers would have no reason to exist.”

Clap, clap, clap.

All guns pointed at him.

“You crazy bastard! “You are no different from the war machines out there!”

The lieutenant colonel smiled at his superior’s words.

“i think so too.”

Ta ta ta ta!

Angry soldiers opened fire. The shield gradually broke down and blood began to splatter from the body.

That moment. Kyung-hoon, who watched the scene through a hidden surveillance camera, gave instructions to Eve.

“Activate it now!”

-yes.

[The portal is activated. Everyone, prepare for shock.]

The people who were shooting and the lieutenant colonel, who was falling to the ground in blood, were confused by the sudden sound.

At that moment, the pattern on the floor began to shine.

Woe!

*

The chairman closed his eyes from the sudden light.

It was light emanating from the floor.

[Transmitting…..]

I felt like I was hearing something, but it was hard to hear properly because of the light in front of me.

The light disappeared and the chairman forced his eyes open.

The chairman opened his eyes wide.

Soldiers were standing in the middle of the warehouse. These were all soldiers who knew everything. These were all American soldiers who left for Korea yesterday.

“What is this…”

The chairman was about to shout in surprise.

Tu duh. ddu!

It was time for the time bomb to explode.

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

A bright light enveloped the venue and covered the warehouse.

Quaaaaaaaaaaa!

A huge explosion rocked the port.

It wasn’t just one warehouse that exploded. It was an explosion that exploded hundreds of meters in an instant.

A little distance from the port.

“Was it the one who exploded in the end?”

The secretary looked at the port with a tired face.

A cloud of dust was rising from the port.

They said they would either take him to Korea or it would end in an explosion, but they seemed to have decided on the latter.

The secretary made a bitter expression.

In the end, it was as if they had killed their own people with the help of EV.

But I couldn’t help it. This was the only way to get rid of these trashy old people.

“You don’t know that times have changed and you still side with the United States. If we want to survive, we can’t help but pray to Korea and EV.”

He called right away.

“This is done well. Let’s proceed right away. Today, Japan is opening a new era!”

He sent a message to his colleague telling him to carry out a coup.

Now Japan would be revived again,

exchanges with the continent would resume, the broken economy would be restored,

and as promised, EV would catch the monsters that were setting up in Tokyo. The capital of Japan will be restored again
