Chapter 120 : Chapter 120
Chapter 120: The Blue Dragon Guild and the Rare Awakened (5)
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang entered the portal where the children were presumed to be kidnapped.
“It's like a dungeon.”
“Indeed.”
The downtown scenery near Nambu Station disappeared, and they were passing through an artificially made path that looked like a remodeled cave.
Whether it was a portal moving to a space in another area, or if they were carrying this entire underground base around as a portal like something out of a manga where they put everything in capsules, they couldn't confirm yet.
However, regardless of which one it was, Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang felt amazed that an ability user with such a skill, which wouldn't be discovered unless one was at the level of a Returnee, existed in a criminal organization.
Thud.
Thud.
Behind that, Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang took steps without a word.
Although it was full of questions, that wasn't the most important thing right now.
The most important thing right now was the kidnapped children.
So Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang didn't stop their steps.
A structure going down underground.
The further down they went, the colder and damper the air became.
The light gradually disappeared, and only the smell left by machines remained thick.
Enough that they didn't know how many floors down.
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang's steps, which continued underground, stopped.
“They're inside.”
“Yes. There's a presence. Well, it seems that side also noticed we came?”
An iron door blocking their front.
Lee Si-wang looked around, searching for something like a camera.
“I don't see any cameras, do they have a detection-type Awakened?”
“Since they're guys who can carry around a space like this, they would at least have a detection-type Awakened. Or they might have an even rarer guy.”
Yoo jin, having finished speaking, moved his steps toward the door.
There was no hesitation in those steps.
One door.
Although it was closed, that door was already in a state of being open from the moment Yoo jin laid his hand on it.
Bang!!!!!
With a tremendous sound, the door flew inward as if hit by a cannon.
And following that, small screams rang out a few times.
“Sorry. It wasn't written whether to push or pull.”
Carda's organization members came into Yoo jin's view.
Personnel who couldn't hide their distorted expressions from panic.
It couldn't be helped, as there were three organization members who were hit by the door Yoo jin just sent flying and fainted while vomiting blood in an instant.
Lee Si-wang, who was behind, approached Yoo jin's side.
As he arrived at the place that was a door just a moment ago, the figures of the organization members came into his view.
Swords.
Axes.
Electric whips.
Guns.
Organization members holding various weapons.
The organization members, who were making panicked expressions at Yoo jin's attack that caught them off guard, composed their expressions in an instant.
“Oh, they aren't as shaken as I thought.”
Lee Si-wang nodded as he took in the Carda organization members.
Assault team, or low-level employees left to tank at the front lines.
One hundred percent.
Even so.
They were quick to find composure, and their response was fast.
On top of that, confidence filled their faces like air.
“They are well-trained.”
“Or they could be well-brainwashed. Dedicating their lives.”
“I'm curious, what on earth binds them to this extent.”
The ones who threw the first punch were clearly.
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang, but.
Without caring.
The remaining organization members rushed at Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang.
Like moths flying into a fire.
Even knowing.
With eyes that said they had no choice, they were picking a fight with a Returnee and Korea's A-Rank No. 1.
“I don't care about that. Just.......”
Bang!!!!!!!
With a tremendous sound, the organization members flew into the air as if soaring.
“If a teacher does something wrong, you just beat them up.”
Yoo Jin, who knocked down the organization members with one punch, moved his steps.
To meet the children who must be somewhere underground.
Thwack!
“Aaaack!”
Bang!!!!!
“Ugh!”
Every time Yoo Jin passed a path, screams followed.
Not many enemies, but like a game, about five to ten Awakened were waiting for Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang on one floor, in a space.
Like a hero going to catch the Demon King to save the princess.
They moved forward, defeating the enemies blocking their front, floor by floor.
They continued to advance.
Middle floor, control room.
To a deeper place.
Machines left here and there, torn documents, stained floors.
They tried to find traces of the children, but only fragmentary evidence remained.
Even so, the hero had no choice but to move forward.
Judging by everything, the Demon King, and the kidnapped children would be at the innermost part.
Like that, Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang continued to go down underground.
Dealing with the organization members blocking them.
For a Returnee and A-Rank No. 1.
It was too easy a task.
“.......”
“.......”
Really.
To the point where they wondered if it could be this easy.......
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang with sunken expressions.
Although they felt uncomfortable, all they could do was move forward.
Like that.
When they went down a few more floors.
A dead end appeared.
The lowest floor.
A wide hall.
Strange mechanical devices were visible in the corner.
And two chairs visible in the center.
Not ordinary chairs, but chairs that were not easily seen, equipped with devices capable of binding the person sitting on them.
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang quickly approached where the chairs were.
Lee Si-wang placing his hand on the chair.
No warmth remained.
As if no person had sat there from the beginning.
Right, it could have been a long time.
Since they left this chair.
Since several hours had passed, there might be no traces of them sitting.
But Lee Si-wang.
And Yoo jin standing behind him knew for sure as soon as they arrived here.
“No wonder it was too easy.......”
“Call the Blue Dragon Guild above quickly.......”
At that moment.
Zzzzt!
Zzzzzzt!
Lights began to come on the screen of the mechanical device settled in the corner of the hall.
And.
Boom!!!!!!
With a tremendous explosion sound, the building was seen collapsing.
Same time.
Mapo, Seoul.
Boom!!!!!
“Kyaaak!!!”
“It's terror!!!”
Downtown Seoul, where ordinary daily life continued.
One building exploded, and the street turned into chaos in an instant.
And in the sky above, a masked man was hugging a young child.
“Feel it. Shout. wail. And engrave this fear clearly. The era will change now.”
Laughter rang out from the mouth of the masked man holding Yang Min-seon.
Blue Dragon Guild Headquarters.
Ignis Guild Master Cho Sang-geun and Blue Dragon Guild Master Kim Cheol-gu on the top floor.
“Was it stalling for time.......”
“We were properly played.......”
The situation in Mapo, where terror was happening in real time, was flowing out on video.
The collapsing building.
Citizens trembling in fear.
Traffic paralyzed in an instant.
And even the police and Awakened nearby dying like dogs in an instant.
“We'll get chewed out by the Association. The Wily Raccoon won't let this slide.......”
Cho Sang-geun opened his mouth while composing his collapsing expression.
“We don't have time for this. Since Teacher Yoo jin and Si-wang entered the portal, we have to move.”
That's right.
There was no time to be like this.
They were responsible for this incident.
Kim Cheol-gu, who was sitting at the desk, quickly raised his body.
“Right, let's go.”
Korea's 3 Great Guild Masters.
Cho Sang-geun and Kim Cheol-gu tried to move straight to the terror scene.
At that moment.
“Uh... Uh... He disappeared! The terrorist who was suddenly committing terror.......”
The eyes of Cho Sang-geun and Kim Cheol-gu, who were about to leave the Guild Master's office, stared at the screen.
“.......”
“.......”
“Kyaaak!!!”
The reporter's sharp scream seen on the screen followed.
Their feet stopped.
The screen was filled with the face of a male wearing a mask. Holding a young child with one arm.
“Greetings, humans of Korea.”
Fluent Korean followed under the mask.
“I am the leader of the Carda organization. Korea, no. I have something to say to the humans all over the world, so I stood in front of the camera personally like this.”
Mockery.
Right, it felt like being mocked.
Declaration of war.
And that was enough to make Cho Sang-geun and Kim Cheol-gu clench their fists.
Because everything went according to their will.
With the incident of the disappearing vehicle, narrowing their vision.
Tying down the feet of the Returnee, the biggest obstacle, with a portal.
Plus, backstabbing with terror in another place.
“The balance of power maintained until now will return to nothing from now on. S-Rank. Nations possessing Returnees grasping the flow of the world, monopolizing everything... Such an era is over. Do you know what is happening in nations that do not possess strong Awakened? You wouldn't know. No, even if you knew, you would pretend not to know.”
The masked one who paused for a moment calmly spat out the last words.
“Watch. Our steps. Korea is the start first. S-Rank... Returnee... Such relics of the old era are finished. I will create a utopia. A utopia without discrimination... where both those with power and those without power are happy.”
The leader of the Carda organization, who was staring piercingly at the camera, disappeared in an instant.
“.......”
“.......”
The heads of Cho Sang-geun and Kim Cheol-gu, who were watching this on the screen, dropped.
The humiliation of Cho Sang-geun and Kim Cheol-gu.
They felt like they had become fools.
A sense of defeat covered their entire bodies.
It was only natural.
They succeeded in everything.
Korea's 3 Great Guilds, and the Returnee called Demon King too.
They made them move within the palms of their hands.
It is still unknown how the public will view it.
Just.
“He wasn't just a mere terrorist.”
“It became a bigger deal than expected. Korea... no, to the whole world.”
Less than a full day.
The Carda organization focused all eyes of the world on themselves.
Few hours later.
Yoo Jin and Lee Si-wang, who had entered the portal, had moved to the Blue Dragon Guild's situation room.
“.......”
Sullen expressions were clearly revealed.
Sighs did not cease from Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang's mouths.
Even Team Leader Nam of the Blue Dragon Guild, who usually growled with Lee Si-wang, didn't say a word and just watched before turning away.
Ignis Guild Master Cho Sang-geun also just watched them from afar and couldn't easily speak to them.
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang's gazes were blankly heading to one place.
News was flowing out there.
Collapsed buildings and evacuating citizens.
And police and Awakened who met their fate due to the terror.
And lastly, the executive of Carda who caused the terror.
The masked man was seen spouting nonsense looking at the screen.
Yoo jin and Lee Si-wang's eyes, which were making blank expressions, moved slightly.
Their eyes were staring at the same place.
Not that crazy ideologist spouting nonsense.
But the young child held in his arms.
“I hope the grandmother doesn't watch television.”
“Me too....”
Playing in the palms of their hands.
They didn't care about people's gazes.
There was a separate reason why their expressions sank.
A mountain on the outskirts of Seoul.
Inside an artificially created portal.
“Oh!!!!”
“Rossi!!!!”
“Rossi!!!!!”
Carda organization members were shouting while cheering manse.
A man standing on a place that looked like a podium.
Leader of the Carda organization.
Rossi.
He, who was wearing a mask, raised his hand.
“I declared the will of the revolution to the world. Now the era will change quickly. In our hands, in my hands.”
“Waaaa!!!!!!”
“Rossi!!!”
“Rossi!!!”
Fanatical voices filled the hall.
“So let's go together. To eliminate discrimination in the world. To live in a world fair for everyone. To do that, we must show our power to the world. And at the same time, we must drag down the existences possessing power of the old era. So.......”
Above the podium where the leader was standing.
Someone's face appeared on a large screen.
“First, we destroy here.”
