I Picked a Mobile From Another World - Chapter 215
Episode 215 [The Beginning of War (1)]
Kukukukuk.
Checkpoints collapsed and long walls were torn down one after another.
These were checkpoints and barriers erected to prevent refugees and illegal immigrants from flooding north.
But the wall was torn down by troops heading south.
Drurr.
Tanks poured into the south over the collapsed wall.
Numerous helicopters and vertical takeoff and landing aircraft passed over the fallen barrier carrying troops.
Fortunately, a mana cloud was passing nearby, so fighters and transport planes were not visible.
But even without Air Force support, nothing would have changed.
The Mexican military guarding the checkpoint and border could not even think of firing a gun.
The standing army was close to 300,000 strong, but it had no tanks and was mainly comprised of armored vehicles.
The Mexican military’s main enemy was not a foreign country, but a weak military to the point where it was said that its own drug gangs were its own.
There was no way the world’s strongest army could stop its advance.
And the Mexican military had no intention of stopping it.
When American troops appeared, the units surrendered and the division abandoned its guns.
The alarmed Mexican government desperately contacted the U.S. government, but the U.S. government showed no interest.
The U.S. military simply marched south, crushing those who resisted.
If a drug trafficking organization was in trouble, the entire area it occupied was destroyed, and if mutant monsters attacked, they were wiped out with powerful firepower. I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but the monsters weren’t very active along the route the U.S. military was advancing.
The U.S. military advanced at incredible speed.
The U.S. military’s publicity also worked well.
Loudspeakers mounted on vehicles and leaflets dropped from helicopters covered the city.
[The United States has come to save its citizens who are suffering from monsters, gangs, a corrupt government, and awakened people. You can concentrate on your livelihood with peace of mind. Now the US military will protect you.]
Was it because they had been victimized by monsters and drug gangs, or was it because of the good image of the US?
Mexican residents were actually happy about the appearance of U.S. troops.
U.S. forces quickly occupied Mexico and advanced toward Guatemala and Honduras.
South American countries were shaken up.
It was an American attack that occurred while monsters suddenly started running rampant.
Any hope of stopping in Mexico quickly disappeared, leaving South American countries terrified and desperately trying to contact the United States.
“I tried contacting Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina, but no country was willing to join forces to fight the United States.”
Sonya opened her mouth with a tired look.
Sonya Sarlich. The president of the Brazilian Awakened Association looked at Marcelo and sighed.
“I should have gone into EV then. If I had, I could have fought monsters without thinking now.”
Two years ago, after being recommended by EV, she returned to Brazil with a sad face.
She wanted to fight with Marcelo, but she was afraid of her family and friends back home.
“But if she had done that, she would have come back now and not been able to do anything and just be angry.” girl?”
“Well, there’s not much I can do right now.”
The title of president of the Brazilian Awakened Association and the name of the most famous awakened person in South America did not help much in the war with the U.S. “All governments are
terrified and are looking for a way to surrender while protecting their positions, and most of the general public believes that the U.S. “I’m waiting for you to come.”
Sonya stroked her face.
“The only people who want to fight the United States are rebels and drug trafficking organizations other than us.”
After hearing her words, Marcelo pointed to himself,
“I also have EV.”
Shona burst out laughing at Marcelo’s words,
“That’s why I can’t give up yet.”
Marcelo looked at her with an apologetic expression. It felt like he had placed too much of a burden on her.
“If you need anything, just tell me. I will provide all the support I can on the island.”
She shook her head at Marcelo’s words:
“It’s no use giving me more equipment. Now it’s just a pearl on a pig’s neck.”
EV was pouring a huge amount of mana equipment into the South American Awakening Association. Enough to arm all the Awakenings. However, not all of the Awakenings could fight, and not all of them had great character. No matter how much the equipment was
, Even if there were many, there was no one who could use them.
“It would be better if EV elites supported it, but that would be unreasonable.”
Marcelo nodded at Sonya’s words.
“I won’t block personal support. But other places are also busy…”
EV was busy without a second’s notice due to the large-scale wave that occurred almost simultaneously.
Moreover, EV’s main force was It was in East Asia. Defense of East Asia was the most important task for EV.
“It would be nice if Kay could also support it, but Kay is better at stopping monsters…”
Marcelo had a perplexed expression on Shona’s words. Sonya didn’t know it, but Kyung-hoon showed great skills when dealing with people.
But it was also difficult for him to pay attention to this place.
“Still, the unity of the awakened people is going well because EV has provided proper information. “I’m just grateful to EV.”
Among the general public, there were many who welcomed the advance of the U.S. military, but among the awakened, no one viewed the U.S. favorably.
This was because everyone knew through EV how awakened people were being treated within the US military.
Brainwashing people through surgery?
There was no one among the awakened who wanted to go through something like that.
smart.
A knock on the door was heard from outside. The door opened and the secretary announced that a guest had arrived.
I was a waiting guest.
Sonya got up and got ready to greet the guests, and Marcel stood behind her.
It was to show the other party that EV would give strength to the Brazilian Awakening Association.
The secretary stepped aside from the door and the man and woman came inside.
A middle-aged man came in first, and a strong energy emanated from the body of the woman who followed him.
They are former CIA Director Lewis, who escaped from the United States, codenamed Anne. It was Elkani the Awakened.
Sonya held out her hand toward Luis.
“welcome. “I was waiting.”
Luis glanced at Marcelo and smiled.
“Nice to meet you. “Thank you for this welcome.”
The president of the Awakened Association, who was active throughout South America, and the mafia leader who grew his power beyond the state by integrating rebels and drug organizations from each country.
The two were opponents who, not long ago, were swearing at each other and brandishing weapons.
But now a bigger enemy was approaching.
The two looked at each other and shook their hands.
***
Boom! bang! bang!
K-1 tanks lined up in the field were pouring shells into the forest.
The forest burned, but the tanks did not stop.
The artillery shells fired from far behind were also continuing to turn the forest into a swampy field.
However, neither the tanks nor the soldiers waiting behind the tanks and armored vehicles could relax their nerves.
gulp.
Hyukjun also swallowed. Although he was a powerful awakener, he couldn’t help but be afraid.
“Can we stop it?”
A young boy next to me asked, still frightened.
Thanks to the small number of awakened people left, even children like this are now on the front line.
If it were me, I would have said something comforting, but he was tired a long time ago.
“It’s impossible. There are rumors going around that the government’s higher-ups may run elsewhere. But is there anywhere else in Busan to run to?”
He chuckled in response to the boy’s words.
The boy who asked the question looked even more frightened, but he didn’t know any more.
When monsters appeared and waves came, there was chaos as the world was ruined, but humans overcame it all.
“Thanks to that, I became an awakened person and was able to live by complaining.”
He smiled happily for a moment, recalling the happy times of the past few years.
But those few years had already passed, and no matter how I looked at it, this uproar seemed impossible to overcome.
The smile disappeared and he muttered with a helpless expression on his face.
“All the truly great awakened people disappeared long ago, so it may be natural for them to perish.”
The joy of those few years has already disappeared somewhere. I couldn’t die anymore, so I just endured.
thud.
The shelling stopped.
And the burning forest began to shake.
“The monster is coming!”
“Ready for battle!”
Shouting came from all directions. It was the sound of officers shouting.
“There is no retreat! If this place is lost, Busan, Ulsan, and Korea will disappear. We give up our lives here for our country and for our families!”
One officer even made a speech during this urgent time:
“Are you all looking for a way to kill yourself?”
Hearing Hyukjun shout, he laughed at everyone again.
They might have been soldiers with families behind them. They had no place to hide so they just fought.
Kwagwagwagwa.
Monsters began to come out of the forest.
Huge wild dogs, crocodile knights with shields. Tens of thousands. Marie’s swarm of rats.
Monsters came rushing out through the burning forest.
“Damn, it’s that damn thing again.”
All the monsters that came out of the forest were moving in an orderly manner.
The sight of the monsters approaching quickly in formation looked better than the formation of the defending humans.
“Check the sides! Beware of diversionary attacks!”
“Be prepared for something popping out of the ground!”
“There is nothing wrong with the sky!”
The officers and soldiers, who were neurotic from the surprise attack they suffered while retreating, were more wary of the enemy that would suddenly jump out rather than the enemy that was coming right in front of them.
But Hyeokjun could only click his tongue when he saw those soldiers.
The monsters had no intention of making a surprise attack or a diversionary attack. I could see it. And there was no need to do it.
Endless monsters came pouring out of the forest.
Twenty to thirty thousand… I couldn’t even count the number.
They were monsters that had already taken over the entire country except for the south of the Nakdong River.
Now I can’t use any more shortcuts . There was no need. The monsters were able to overwhelm the humans with just their sheer volume.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The tank bombardment began again, but it was useless to the monsters unless they hit directly.
Monsters poured in between the explosions.
Soldiers . He also fired his gun, and Hyukjun also pulled out his sword.
He was going to die anyway, so he thought about swinging the sword one more time.
He kicked the trembling boy’s butt.
“If I’m going to die anyway, I’ll just kill one more person. Looking at it, the family is behind me. “I think there is.”
The boy seemed to have come to his senses at his words. The boy ran forward holding a gun with a pattern on it and started shooting. Hyukjun shook his head at the boy and ran forward himself. A bullet passed by and
the
monsters I pounced on him. I
swung my sword. I
decapitated the dog and cut off the leg of the cat. I shared my sword with the armored knight and cut off the pincers of the scorpion that rose from the ground.
But that was it.
Again!
The sword couldn’t hold on.
Of course, not even his body. He was not healthy.
One of his arms was cut off and his intestines were spilling out of his stomach.
He could no longer hear the tank fire.
The defense line had collapsed.
He saw a corpse in front of him. It was the body of the boy who had run away with a gun a little while ago.
“It was a funny world and a funny life.”
He raised his middle finger towards the Crocodile Knight approaching with his sword.
Crocodile Knight raised his great sword.
He felt a little regretful.
I could have done a little better. I could have enjoyed it more and been more successful.
If given another chance, he could have done better…
That was the regret that came to Hyukjun’s mind as he was cut in half by the sword.
The world became dark.
…..
“Wake up! weather!”
He suddenly opened his eyes at the sudden sound.
I saw an unfamiliar ceiling.
“Aren’t you dead?”
He suddenly got up from his seat.
My body didn’t hurt.
Surprised, he touched his body here and there.
“There are no wounds. “Oh, is this my body?”
The severed arm was fine, and the stomach with its internal organs spilling out showed no signs of injury.
The awakened person’s powerful body had become extremely weak.
Additionally, the military uniform he was wearing was completely different.
He looked around in surprise.
Bedding lined with old tents. This place looked like a temporary military barracks.
He was the only one in the barracks.
“I told you to leave because you were sick, but you’re still sleeping? “Come out quickly!”
A sergeant was staring at him in front of the barracks.
“Oh, I understand.”
He answered without realizing it, and the sergeant immediately left for another place.
He left the tent.
There were numerous tents lined up outside. A tank was passing by in the distance and a helicopter was flying in the sky.
He looked around with a puzzled expression.
It was clearly Korea and the military, but something was strange.
Clap, clap, clap.
At that time, a robot that looked like a spider and an awakened person holding a spear passed by.
And unfamiliar memories poured into my head.
Another person’s life unfolded in my memory.
A man who lived an ordinary life, but when monsters appeared during his college years, he was unable to get a job and lived in vain.
And in the end, a man was brought into the army a year ago and pushed to the front like this.
“oh my god. “Wasn’t this my body?”
He looked down at the puddles on the floor.
A scruffy man, completely different from himself, was reflected in the water.
He looked around again.
I even remembered where this place was.
This is beyond Baekdu Mountain. It was the land of Manchuria.
The military camp where the South Korean army departed to prevent the sudden rampage of monsters.
“Could it be that you have crossed over to another world?”
The owner of this body was a soldier of this unit. An ordinary soldier who is forced to endure military life.
But he clenched his fist.
Mana was flowing freely within my body.
The mana was still only F-level, but unlike before, this body had become an awakened person.
“Did you gain the ability to gain memories from another world upon awakening?”
Or maybe he was possessed by this body after his spirit awakened after he died in another world.
But it didn’t matter.
He came back to life and awakened.
Moreover, this world was still safe and holding up extremely well.
I could have done it here. He had already experienced everything.
Now he could do better. He could enjoy it more, he could become richer, and he didn’t know if he could protect the world.
“No, I’m the only one who can do it.”
He walked out briskly, feeling a heavy weight on his shoulders.
First, you had to register as an awakened person.
