The Cook of a Perished World - Chapter 87
Episode 87 Inje-gun Strategy (1)
The area where the guild [Steel Legion] is located.
Inje-gun is a small city.
Gangwon-do, where military units are concentrated.
Among them, Inje-gun is the front line and is also the area where the largest number of military units are concentrated.
Because it was also a guard area for many units.
Even though it was a rural area, there were quite a few buildings and resources concentrated in the center.
Where there are the most resources and people.
in other words.
From the monsters’ point of view, this is the place where the most prey is gathered.
That place is Gunnae.
Now, the place is no different from a demonic world.
That place is the center of this area.
and.
“From number 1 to number 3. “Everyone is ready for battle!”
“Even the engineers’ tanks and combat vehicles. “Everyone has been deployed.”
Around the county.
More than a hundred soldiers and modified tank vehicles began to surround the area.
The faces of the gathered soldiers were quite diverse.
Men and women, of course.
A variety of characters, regardless of age or age.
Even though they had various weapons, they were wearing black military uniforms and operating as one.
“…Whew!”
“what. “Are you nervous?”
Some of those soldiers whispered softly.
“Of course I’m nervous.”
“I’ve had more than one battle with a monster. why?”
“That’s true, but. “There is a saying that street fighting is hell for infantrymen.”
Street fighting.
An environment where each building serves as a hideout and barricade to hide enemies.
You never know when an enemy might jump out of a building and attack your allies.
It is worthy of being called the hell of infantrymen.
but.
“Tsk tsk. That’s right. “That’s also true when it’s an ordinary military unit.”
“what?”
“Look over there.”
A soldier smiling lightly as if he wasn’t nervous at all.
He shrugged his shoulders and pointed to a corner with his chin.
“What is there… Ah!”
“Did you see it?”
There was a tank waiting there after deployment.
and.
A man sitting on it.
He was a sharp-looking man holding a long sashimi knife in one hand.
Just looking at the atmosphere, it felt like they had stabbed several people with that kitchen knife.
What was held in the other hand holding the knife were fresh vegetables.
“Sergeant Shin is cooking.”
“…I see.”
Let’s hear that.
The tension on the soldier’s face decreased slightly.
‘Sergeant Youngjun Shin.’
Be honest.
During his military service in the 423rd Battalion, he was not a particularly notable person.
Since it was a small unit, people tended to be close regardless of the company.
Still a cooking sickness.
There isn’t much contact at work.
Unless it was a nearby rider, there was no need to get involved.
but.
It was different after Doomsday.
‘In the days of the non-awakened. A man who had already decapitated a lizard with just a kitchen knife.’
If you tell me that, you’ll say, ‘It wasn’t that simple.’
Also, there was no denial.
Even after awakening, there were many soldiers struggling in battle with the Lizard.
A monster who did that before awakening.
Thanks to him being close and taking out the lizard.
After realizing the awakening method, I was able to quickly awaken the unit members.
If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have been able to get to the idea of killing the monster up close, and would have ended up wasting bullets and getting wiped out.
Like many other military units that were wiped out.
Even after that, Sergeant Shin Young-jun’s activities did not stop.
When the Lizard gathered his forces and attacked, he was repelled by feeding buff dishes to his troops.
In the process of escaping the mountain range, I defeated the monsters that came by feeding them debuff dishes.
actually.
At this time, everyone seemed to acknowledge that his ability as a chef was great.
but.
He didn’t stop there.
Suppression of looters.
The leader of the marauders, who were struggling despite all the elite awakened soldiers, was cut down with a single kitchen knife.
Dungeon attack.
While all the guild members were stranded, he walked alone into the depths of the dungeon.
There was one thing that the soldiers who entered late were able to confirm.
A boss monster that looks incredibly powerful.
The boss monster was just a corpse that had been decapitated with a single blow.
Moreover, not long ago, he even defeated the boss of vampires alone.
Sergeant Shin Young-jun’s occupation is a chef.
It’s definitely a non-combat type job.
Nevertheless, it has been revealed that even their combat abilities are at a different level.
‘…Honestly, it’s hard to believe that the same person can do that.’
Still, people like Corporal Jeon Gwang-il followed him passionately.
A benefactor who made me strong when I was weak.
In addition, those who were recently held as slaves or prisoners of hostile forces.
After they were rescued by Legion soldiers.
It has become a force that completely believes in Sergeant Shin Young-jun.
The degree is so severe that the other soldiers are reluctant to do so, but
even so, ‘If it is the ability that Sergeant Shin Young-jun has shown, you might think that way.’ It’s a situation where we move on.
As the survivors joined, various people became active as members of the guild, but
in the meantime, no one could deny that he was the leader of the corps.
That’s it.
He is a young man in his early 20s.
‘Sergeant Shin grabbed the kitchen knife and started cooking.’
That fact alone.
The fear and tension among the soldiers was noticeably reduced.
and.
What filled that empty space was confidence.
“Urban warfare is hell for infantrymen?”
“Tsk tsk. “Then you will be eating dinner in hell tonight.”
“I’m looking forward to seeing what else you cook for dinner.”
In front of them.
[The skill of the friendly intermediate chef is activated.]
[Five loaves and two fish]
[‘An urban warfare specialized course meal filled with the sincerity of an intermediate chef’ is provided to all corps members.] A
dish suddenly appeared.
It’s like creating something from nothing.
The soldiers, now accustomed to this type of work, naturally accepted the bowl.
“““Enjoy your meal!!!”””
“Come.”
and.
When the soldiers got up after finishing their meal.
Boom….
The vibration of the military boots stepping down at the same time echoed on the ground.
* * *
The corps’ full-scale invasion of the military has begun.
A city where many monsters reside.
The corps’ strategy to respond was simple.
‘total war.’
A squad of soldiers began entering the military compound.
Asphalt buildings were spread everywhere.
Every single one of them was a place that could become a hideout for monsters.
In a normal city battle, just clearing the buildings here would take an enormous amount of time.
The time it took to attack would have increased, and the soldiers’ fatigue would have accumulated tremendously.
but.
“Let’s see.” “They say monsters will be gathered here on the second floor.”
“These are the ones I caught before. “It seems to be the only building around here.”
“good. Let’s get it sorted out quickly and move on!”
Soldiers enter without hesitation holding a map.
The locations of the monsters had already been identified almost perfectly.
“It’s a spirit eye.”
“I had no idea that the power of the woman who believed in Sergeant Shin would be this powerful.”
Over the past few weeks.
It was the result of reconnaissance by Jeong Soo-ah, a spirit priest with a spirit eye.
In the past, it would have been impossible for her to scout the entire county.
It wasn’t difficult for her, who strained her eyes while eating Sergeant Shin Young-jun’s cooking.
Of course, this is only effective for monsters that settle in one area.
A city with thousands of zombies wandering around.
We also have to prepare for sudden attacks from roaming monsters.
[Sensitive hearing (deterioration)]
Doo doo doo….
“Animal footsteps from 3 o’clock!”
“It’s coming this way. “Everyone is ready to intercept.”
The monsters wandering around attacked the squad.
The squad, which had already noticed the approach from a few hundred meters away, was able to easily respond to the enemy attack.
The name of the dish that Sergeant Shin Young-jun fed to the soldiers.
[Specialized course for urban warfare]
Each course dish provided specialized abilities for urban warfare.
Not only the abilities, but also the characteristics that can prepare you for unexpected attacks.
and.
Soldiers were not the only ones involved in the attack.
“It’s that building. “They say the entire place has become a hatchery for monsters.”
“It is difficult to enter and attack. “The damage will be great.”
“Then what?”
Doo doo doo doo….
The sound of an endless track moving forward, mercilessly trampling on objects in the way can be heard.
Armor that looks massive just by appearing.
These armored vehicles served as temporary bases for soldiers with moving barricades.
“Let’s blow it up.”
It was also a moving battery.
“launch!”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa….
Bombardment from a tank that had been modified by engineers.
A fire fighter with all the might of a wizard.
It didn’t take long for the small building, which was said to be completely invaded by monsters, to be destroyed.
All over the county, cannonballs and magic trails were embroidering the sky.
Until now, firepower had been suppressed because the enemy might rush in upon hearing the noise.
But what I chose this time was all-out war.
Maximum firepower was unleashed from all over without paying attention to noise.
at that time.
“This is where we are, and if you look here, there is a market.”
Elsewhere, a squad was digging deep inside the military.
A squad that penetrated deepest into the depths of the legion’s troops.
“ah. “This is where that colony is said to have formed.”
“That might be tricky.”
“Best to avoid this area…”
The squad members expressed concern.
The soldier in charge of the squad encouraged them and spoke.
“It won’t be easy, though. “It seems like our squad is the one that has entered the deepest part.”
“That’s true.”
“This market. Although it is spacious, it occupies the center of the county and has many passages. “If we just break through here, it will be much easier for other squads to enter.”
“Um…”
“At least for the sake of other unit members. “We must do it.”
In those words.
The soldiers let out a small sigh and then smiled and said.
“what. “It can’t be helped.”
“The only better option is death?”
When they were determined and started planning a strategy to enter the market.
“ah. Corporal Kim!”
“uh?”
From far away.
A soldier from another squad was seen approaching and talking to them.
A soldier approaches, calmly waving his hand.
the problem is.
“You… how did you come from there?”
Where the soldier came from.
This was the very market they were trying to attack at the risk of their lives.
Corporal Kim asked with wide eyes.
“no way. “Did your squad clear out that market?”
Leaving the market means defeating the market monster.
It was a natural thought.
“yes? “It’s not.”
His answer was the opposite.
“Our squad is not as strong as Corporal Kim’s squad. “It’s absolutely impossible.”
“Then how did you get there? According to the information on the map, there must have been a large colony of monsters.”
The soldier who heard that answered as if he was curious.
“Our squad also went in quite nervous. “There wasn’t a single monster inside.”
“what?”
“There were traces of monsters. There were also traces of a battle… So we naturally assumed that Corporal Kim’s squad had taken care of it. “Of all the squads that entered this area, Corporal Kim was the only one… But you’re saying that’s not true?”
“Not us. “We were just talking about how to attack.”
“Then. Who are those monsters….”
“I mean.”
Soldiers looking at each other’s faces and wondering.
While they were so puzzled.
“I have returned after completing my mission.”
Elsewhere.
A report was being made.
