I Picked a Mobile From Another World - Chapter 68

Episode 68 [Airport (2)]

Bang! Tatang! bang!

A gunshot rang loudly.

Bullets poured into the hangar.

It was no ordinary bullet. The steel hangar wall was ripped open.

-This is a bullet for the awakened person. It is difficult to block with the master’s shield.

“I know! What is this, a gunfight with a monster?”

Kyung-hoon grumbled while covering himself with a shield.

Empty! Empty!

Bullets bounced off the shield.

The shield with the pattern on it was able to block bullets, but the damage was visible.

-The hangar is surrounded. 3 o’clock position. It would be best to escape the hangar to the northeast.

Fortunately, the drone floating high in the sky has not yet been detected. Eve provided the best escape route based on the enemy’s location confirmed by the drone.

“If this happens, you don’t mind the noise, right?”

Kyung-hoon took out a mana bomb from his bag and threw it into the crack in the outer wall of the broken hangar he had entered.

The shell, thrown with more than human strength, escaped outside the hangar and landed in front of the approaching monster.

bang!

The shell exploded and the two monsters were caught in the explosion.

The shield tried to block the explosion, but it was impossible to block the bomb containing mana. In an instant, the shield was removed and the monsters that looked like soldiers were torn to pieces.

But that was the limit.

The monsters that were not directly caught in the explosion bounced off the fragments with their shields and approached the hangar where Kyung-hoon was.

Meanwhile, Kyung-hoon kicked the wall on the other side.

There were no cracks in the north wall of the hangar. Instead, there were broken windows lined up at a height of about 5 meters.

An ordinary person would have had no way to escape, but Kyung-hoon was able to escape through the window by kicking the wall once.

-It is recommended to move to the next hangar ahead.

“Is it empty in there?”

-…I couldn’t check the inside. Still, the siege net is much thicker and wider than expected. Monsters outside the airport also appeared. It doesn’t seem easy to escape outside.

If it was an ordinary monster that wasn’t fast, all you had to do was separate it. However, it was surrounded by monsters with awakened guns. It was perfect to become a beehive while driving down the runway.

“Let’s just check there. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll run away.”

He was clinging to the hangar wall and ran forward, pumping mana into his legs again.

phut!

Shooting like a bullet, he hit the wall of another hangar not far away and soared straight up.

After rising more than 5 meters, he grabbed the broken window sill and pushed himself into the hangar.

-I wasn’t caught. Monsters continue to move into the old hangar.

“Luckily this place is empty.”

One side of the ceiling was partially dented as if it had been hit by something, but the hangar shape was maintained without any holes.

The hangar was empty except for a large piece of equipment covered in a tarp on one side.

Looking at the items scattered around the hangar, it looked like it was a helicopter hangar.

Kyung-hoon asked Eve as he walked towards the equipment piled on the cloth.

“I don’t think I’ve seen a monster like that that can change its appearance in the encyclopedia. Did I miss it?”

-no. There is no encyclopedia and this is a monster I don’t know about.

“Is this already the second time?”

-It doesn’t seem to have very strong physical abilities, but seeing how it uses human weapons makes it seem more difficult than expected.

“How picky is it?”

Kyung-hoon shook his head at Eve’s words.

The emotions I felt when I saw the woman who had turned into a monster still remained. Although she was a woman I had never seen before, the longing and sadness remained deep in my heart.

‘Have you really never seen it?’

For a moment, a question crossed my mind. But even when I thought about it again, I couldn’t remember.

Kyung-hoon dismissed his doubts and continued his thoughts.

“The face that changed when he cut off his head for the last time was similar to Jinhyuk’s.”

“I don’t know if he searched my head to find Jinhyuk’s face or if he planted an illusion in my eyes that looked like Jinhyuk, but the fact that that is possible means that it is possible to imitate someone you are close to, kill someone, and even imitate that person.”

Seeing Jinhyeok’s severed head was a terrible experience even for the brave man.

“There was no problem because I was alone. Imagine if they had sneaked into a place where hundreds or tens of thousands of people were gathered.”

-…There would be great chaos.

There weren’t many people who could stand it if a senior, junior, or superior suddenly had a subordinate’s loved one attack them. It

was clear that it would not be easy for the military or society to maintain the system.

If you know , Even if we set it up, it was a problem. There was no way we could do anything right because we were suspicious of each other. -Wouldn’t you be able to

tell the difference between body temperature being slightly higher than that of an ordinary person and intelligence being considerably lower? ”

I don’t know what the body temperature is, but I loaded the gun and fired and made traps. ‘The entity that creates the siege is unintelligent?’

-From what we have confirmed, each person’s intelligence is not that high.

Eve confirmed to Kyung-hoon with a drone that the dead monster could not speak and the approaching monsters were not very smart.

-Each individual’s intelligence is not high, but they recognize it immediately after the first object dies and build a siege without talking to each other. There seems to be a highly intelligent object that is giving orders or is engaging in telepathic group thinking.

“I guess so. It would have taken a smart boss to properly cause confusion.”

Since the group think group didn’t quite understand what was being said, Kyung-hoon thought there must be a leader leading them.

-There are places where command objects are assumed to be located.

“Shall we see what’s here?”

Kyung-hoon stood in front of the equipment covered with an old tarp. He pulled down the cloth.

-It was here.

Unfinished military equipment was revealed.

Waist on the runway. At the center of the airport was the largest hangar in the airport.

It was a hangar that could accommodate transport aircraft or large aircraft.

Unlike other destroyed buildings, the hangar remained somewhat intact.

The central bulletproof door of the seemingly intact hangar was slightly open, just enough for a person to pass by.

Monsters in human form continued to appear between the open bulletproof doors.

On the outside, they were warriors wearing bloody military uniforms.

It felt unfamiliar because of the expressionless face, but both the way he walked and the way he held the gun had the appearance of a properly trained soldier.

Monsters no longer appeared in other buildings. However, this hangar steadily spewed out monsters as if they were producing monsters.

Including the monsters guarding the airport between other buildings and underdogs, hundreds of monsters were already surrounding the airport. Among the soldiers who kept coming out, a strange-looking monster was seen.

It was an old man wearing a military uniform with a star on it.

He smoothed his neatly trimmed gray hair and looked toward the northern hangar where the monsters were running.

“You’re a human. How many years has it been?”

The sight of him repeating to himself with an expressionless face gave me a creepy feeling even in broad daylight.

“It’s not in hangar 3? Start by looking for nearby hangars.”

His words became softer as time passed. He walked north.

After that he didn’t speak again.

However, as he moved, the monsters that had built a siege network moved as one body.

A moment later, he entered the hangar where he first discovered humans.

The decapitated young clan and destroyed human tools came into view.

He lifted the severed head of the clan member and examined the cut surface, then examined the broken machine.

It was something I had never seen before. It was an object that had never been seen before, even before human civilization collapsed.

Of course, I knew of drones with similar functions, but I had never seen one this small.

He looked at the destroyed drone for a moment and then walked away. He had no way to analyze man-made objects.

‘Still haven’t found it?’

He walked to the opposite wall and looked up. And kicked the ground.

He soared all the way to the window. There were traces of dust swept on one side of the window frame. He checked the tracks and jumped out the window.

He got down on the ground and looked around. I gathered mana in my eyes and looked for traces.

It was a chase technique that younger members of his clan could not perform, but it was not difficult for him who could handle mana.

A moment later, he entered the hangar next door in the same way as Kyung-hoon.

When he got down to the ground, he stopped walking.

The clan members who were searching inside the hangar stopped moving and looked at him.

He looked across the hangar.

The tarp covering the human gear was half peeled off.

He walked to where the equipment was.

Underneath the half-peeled tarp, a large spider-shaped robot was sitting with its legs closed.

Because it was still unfinished, nothing was attached to the legs and body, and the armor was not attached properly, so it looked very ugly.

He didn’t understand that it was ugly.

The monster in the shape of an old man looked at the half-peeled tarpaulin and tilted his head with an expressionless face.

The monster couldn’t understand.

There were definitely humans here. The proof was that the tarpaulin had been peeled off.

However, there were only traces of people coming in and no traces of humans leaving.

You missed it.

He remembered a few Awoken traits that allowed him to sneak away without being detected.

Space movement or invisibility and hiding.

All of those characteristics had weaknesses. There was no way it could have maintained its characteristics and gone far.

“find.”

The monster who lived here the longest gave orders to the entire clan.

Clutter.

Following the instructions, the appearance of the monsters surrounding the hangar began to change.

The monsters abandoned their human appearance. Weapons were discarded and clothes were falling down.

The monsters changed their bodies into various forms, such as wild dogs and snakes.

The monsters that changed their appearance escaped the airport and spread out in all directions.

The area around the airport was very noisy due to the sudden movement of monsters.

The search grew wider as time passed.

However, only suspicious traces remained in a few places in the direction of Seoul, and no traces of humans were found. Time continued to pass.

One day, two days, three days.

If it were a human, it would have given up already, but the monster didn’t know how to give up.

And one week.

A black hole was created in the hangar where the human disappeared.

Puhak!

Kyung-hoon jumped out of the hole. As soon as he came out, Kyunghoon quickly looked around. Fortunately, no one was seen inside the hangar.

“Eve. Start.”

-Resume drone connection. Turn off safe mode. Battery is at 20%.

North of the airport. A drone soared into the sky from a field overgrown with weeds.

-The number of monsters has been greatly reduced.

Kyung-hoon nodded at Eve’s words. He pulled down the tarp that covered it again.

“Before, I backed off because I didn’t have enough firepower, but this time it’s different.”

A week ago, Kyung-hoon returned to his original world through a dimensional shift from this hangar.

Thanks to spending time in advance and entering the airport, I was able to leave right away.

Although he backed down due to too many numbers, there was no way he would just give up due to Kyung-hoon’s personality.

He dimensionally traveled to the Awakened Training Center, collected his items, and then dimensionally traveled back here.

It took a week because he had to cross the level twice, but Kyung-hoon was satisfied.

He unpacked his backpack. And started pulling out weapons from inside.

Heavy machine gun. From rapid-fire grenade launchers to various types of armor.

The weapon was packed to the point where it could travel between dimensions.

He opened his mouth as he placed a grenade launcher on a spider-like robot.

“Are you able to control it sufficiently?”

-yes. I ran the simulation for enough time for a week. The data obtained from the Awakened Training Center was sufficient. Moreover, we put a mana bomb inside the grenade. There is no reason to lose out on firepower.

While drones monitored the surroundings in the sky, Kyung-hoon and Eve reassembled the combat robot golem.

An automated firearm was loaded on top of the spider robot, and a large mana stone was placed in the center of the robot.

Ugh.

Light came into the mana stone and the spider golem stood up.
