Life Mission

As soon as the Rankers left, the level A Lifers followed suit.

There are no questions.

They moved mechanically according to their pre-conditioned guidelines and training.

There are about 1000 of them. If this force is combined with Cha Jun Sung to make 4 level S Lifers, they could take on a level 9.

“We’ll have to prepare the cyborgs as well.”

They are weak, but they could have a great effect if used properly.

Hundreds of tentacles attack Cha Jun Sung’s body as if they are each living creatures.

They are persistent.

It doesn’t end and goes on like a storm.

Hades desperately cut the tentacles, but the nerves connect again quickly like cutting through water. He needs to chop at it if he wants to see an effect, but there are too many of them.

Trees that need to be handled with both arms of an adult man are being cut easily.

The forest is screaming because of Cha Jun Sung and Evil Queen’s battle.

Cha Jun Sung just blocked, but Evil Queen’s attack radius was colossal. This area is wide, but they move narrowly. Evil Queen cleaned the obstacles that prevented her from attacking Cha Jun Sung. If looking down from the sky, there will be a big hole in the middle of the forest.

‘To get pushed like this.’

The inside of his battlesuit is full of sweat. A constant temperature is maintained, but tension makes his breath short and heart beat faster.

Cha Jun Sung moves busily. Though he has a superhuman body and scientifically created battlesuit, he is a human with two arms and two legs.

He can’t do things that are out of character of what the human body can do.

But is that the same for Evil Queen?

She has barely used her lower body since the battle began. She stays in the same place and just attacks.

She only needs to move when Cha Jun Sung gets out of her attack radius and when he gets through her attacks and rushes at her.

‘If only my arm were okay.’

It is an unnecessary war of attrition. They won’t be able to end like this.

Evil Queen smirks. Cha Jun Sung’s expression becomes distorted. Unlike him, she is enjoying the situation.

Cha Jun Sung’s current combat ability is about 80% of what it had been in his heyday. He’s pretty used to it because it has been a long time since his arm got cut off, but it was still cut off.

Following circumstances, it is difficult and the balance isn’t right. From the way things are going, he wouldn’t have been able to beat Evil Queen even before. But he can take advantage of that state.

“Odin. Did you find the nucleus?”

[Above average levels of virus A have been detected in the pit of the stomach. I cannot see inside Evil Queen even with a detailed scan.]

Boom!

Cha Jun Sung brings Hades down. A direct vacuum wave splits everything in front into two.

Cha Jun Sung runs after.

He isn’t sure, but it’s worth a shot. If they keep fighting like this, there will be no end.

He will give flesh for bones.

No. He will give his life and get that much back. This moment when she has her guard down is the optimal opportunity.

Is it because he forced himself through?

The tentacles graze past his battlesuit.

Cha Jun Sung didn’t pay any mind. As long as he’s come this far, he can’t go back empty-handed. He needs to do everything he can before the heat in his body goes down.

“Where!”

Evil Queen falls to Cha Jun Sung’s forceful rush. The Overbooster, raised to maximum output, narrowed the short distance in one shot.

“Die!”

Inside the battlesuit helmet, a light flashes a place that Cha Jun Sung’s eyes mark.

The Overbooster all over his body becomes concentrated in one place. It is his right arm.

Hades’ own booster explodes simultaneously.

Deadly strike.

It was just for one moment, but it exceeded the domain of supersonic speed. It didn’t reach the speed of light, but it was unrecognizable.

Evil Queen’s eyes look toward Hades’ blade, that is coming down from above. Rather than watching it, her eyes followed it instinctually.

The energy emanating from Hades split the tentacles guarding Evil Queen and even the air and disappeared to the back.

“That was a good surprise attack, but didn’t I tell you? My darling and I became one.”

“What?”

Evil Queen, split and about to touch the ground, laughs at Cha Jun Sung.

Cha Jun Sung’s attention goes forward.

A lump the size of a man’s fist is attached to a disgusting vein.

The nucleus.

The nucleus twists around, takes shape, and changes into a skeleton. It looks exactly like a human skeleton.

“That’s Bon Load.”

Evil Queen has put Bon Load in her nucleus. She has placed a frightfully powerful guard in her most crucial part.

Kyah!

The fist-sized nucleus swells enormously. Bon Load opens his mouth and shows sharp teeth.

Cha Jun Sung felt death.

He can’t avoid it. They are too close. He has been outnumbered.

“Fuck.”

Bon Load’s mouth comes right in front of him. He knew the end would be bad, but for the last scene he sees to be the inside of that monster’s mouth.

He wants to resist, but it is already too late to do so and because battlesuit energy consumption is extreme, Overmode has already been released.

Kyak!

When Cha Jun Sung had given up hopes of living, a bomb exploded and a bullet used against top level mutants went into the middle of Bon Load’s forehead.

Bang!

It is called a bullet, but it is basically a small missile the size of an arm. When that exploded, Evil Queen and Cha Jun Sung flung away.

“Pour it on! Force 1, get Overload and take him to headquarters!”

Upon Weapon Master’s orders, force 1 went to Cha Jun Sung, supported him, and got away from the battlefield without looking back.

The remaining force used all of the weapons they had to make where Evil Queen is into chaos. It looks as though she sustained an injury in her battle against Cha Jun Sung.

They may not be able to kill her, but they might be able to use this chance to wound her.

“These punks mess with my mood?”

Her tentacles and sharp thorns fling out from the center of the explosions. It isn’t for attack. This is Evil Queen’s complete awakening.

Her tentacles twist like a tornado. A strong wind creates a dust storm that obstructs their view. Lifers watch that phenomenon and retreat little by little.

Evil Queen’s form is shown to the world in clear visibility. Her original form is nowhere to be found. She is huge.

She’s so big that they need to completely turn their heads up to see her. She looks like a lizard with a long body and countless sharp thorns on her body.

Those thorns prop up her entire body. Bon Load’s skeleton was stuck among those thorns, and it wriggles like it is alive.

Where there should be a head, a skeleton larger than an apartment flashes a terrible ray of light.

Evil Queen’s human form is soaring above that.

“I don’t like how it looks. But I really do like how much power there is.”

This is the first time she is awakening since fusing with Bon Load.

The word monster is fitting, but a mighty force spurt from inside.

[Strategist.] [The cyborgs will take care of your retreat. Don’t fight back and run away.]

Woong!

Weapon Master could hear the sound of bees.

They are coming.

Bang bang bang!

The Lifers who had been watching Evil Queen reverse their boosters. They will run away from her while facing her. They have completed their prioritized goal.

“I won’t send you away.”

A part of the skeleton stuck on Evil Queen’s body, fall to the ground and roll.

Thorns and tentacles come out of the skeletons.

They look like jellyfish. As soon as they took shape, they chased the World Federation members as they ran away. There are hundreds of them.

“That one should be the only one that was able to survive my surprise attack.”

It is surprising. They need to be at least level A in order to survive her surprise attack. That means they have the strength of level 6 and 7s.

Boom boom boom!

Evil Queen moves her heavy body forward. She is slow because her height and length are as large as that of a skyscraper.

Woong!

“Huh?”

Evil Queen looks in the direction of the sound.

Because she is so big, she protrudes from the forest. She can see something filling the sky. The 50,000 cyborgs that Strategist sent. As the cyborgs approached Evil Queen, about 10% changed their direction to the ground.

Bang bang bang!

Then the following explosions.

Evil Queen knew that her fragments would be swept in those explosions, so she frowned. They are pushing through with volume. She didn’t feel rage because they are one-time alters, but she is a bit annoyed because there have been so many obstacles to what she wants to do.

“I was just going to play…”

Evil Queen was going to leave the Lifers alone if they left her path out open. It’s because she has something to do. But she’s changed her mind.

She’ll kill all of them.

It might take a long time to find and kill each one, but she’ll be able to get most of them if she crushes their headquarters.

Cyborgs come swarming in. Evil Queen strengthens her coat. An armor so thick and sturdy that not even a missile could get through, wraps around her body.

“I’ll take one hit.”

Bang bang bang!

The cyborgs fall. Their bare bodies collide with Evil Queen.

They are self-destructing.

Not just one, but tens of thousands of them.

There isn’t a lot of power. Strategist used high level cyborgs for this operation. Though they wanted to save special and high level cyborgs because they have a lot of use for them, the impact accumulates and Evil Queen suffers a little damage.

Though that was only outside the armor, not inside.
