Dozens of hydraulic guns shoot out water.
They can fire once every 10 seconds, so they controlled the hydraulic guns’ shooting speed with continuous fire.
The hydraulic gun passes through the bodies of fish that are so deformed they look burned. It isn’t an exploding method like hydraulic impact guns.
Since it is a penetrating weapon capable of creating a large hole like a hard rock, it is better for hunting small numbers of mutants rather than large numbers.
Uranos caused overall damage with the hydraulic impact gun when they discovered a school of mutants, and used the hydraulic gun to kill the rest.
The energy core recovers power with time no matter how slowly. They brought along the chargers they needed.
They cannot use the store inside a mission however, so items are finite. They cannot know what will happen in the future. They need to manage efficiently.
‘It varies. The whole ecosystem is different from what’s on land. It revolves completely around mutants. Is it because Lifers haven’t touched it?’
Even if the land is destroyed now, it is where more than 50 billion people live so there are traces leftover in whatever shape it takes.
Even that will gradually disappear but with the inflow of Lifers, there are traces that humans lived there.
But not in the sea.
It is not an area that they can be active in in the first place, but the ecosystem revolves around mutants and animals.
There is no inflow of Lifers, so it is a different world from what is on land.
It has been several weeks since they set out to sea.
Albatrus submerged as deep as it could go.
They are going down close to 2000m.
Boom!
They kept repeating the boring pattern of shaking up the mutants’ center with the hydraulic impact gun and then taking care of the rest with hydraulic guns.
Battle is always lukewarm.
Except when they were resting in the guest rooms, Cha Jun Sung’s group watched this kind of scene hundreds of time. They didn’t do anything, and just ate up points.
There are so many mutants in this vast expanse that hundreds of them appeared in blocks of just several minutes. Levels 1 and 2 were like sand on a beach. There were less of levels 3 and 4, but it is at a proportion compared to land.
Once they reached levels 5 and 6, they appeared less than the lower levels.
It’s a party when they appear.
They come in hordes.
The levels are mixed, but they come in thousands at the least and tens of thousands if there are a lot.
Sea General told them that solo actions decrease and they tend to act as teams because there are more predators in the sea than there are on land.
When they face level 5 and 6s, they can get at least 5 to 10 million points on the spot. They divided it up, but it’s on such a large scale.
“Compared to the beginning, the number of people coming in periodically is less than half.”
Basil speaks while looking at the screen.
About 10 of the 20 Rankers aren’t seen.
One person basically disappeared every two days.
They have a similarity.
When the situation grew boring, they stopped coming to headquarters telling them to call only when they are needed.
None of the Lifers were happy about this.
All they can do is watch. It didn’t matter if all of the Lifers became lazy. The Albatrus moved by way of the 8 helpers and cyborgs.
“… we’re doing something in less than half too.”
“… I see.”
Cha Jun Sung’s party has 6 people. But 4 of them have disappeared and only 2 are left in headquarters. Cha Jun Sung and Basil.
Park Jin Hyuk and Kyoko are gone and hiding somewhere.
Headquarters is just one part of the Albatrus. They must be going around spending quality time together.
Koharu and Violet didn’t even pay attention to them, saying that they were having fun.
Nuclear, who has been coming in diligently, is next to a cyborg asking something. From what they can tell, he is learning to steer.
Other than that, they are all in cliques.
Strategist and Sea General are in a deep conversation. As they get deeper into the water, the mutants get stronger.
Uranos is Strategist’s helper.
He makes his own judgements on the situation, but he cannot help but rely on Strategist for the final decision. Strategist recognized this and learns about the ocean from Sea General whenever he can. He learns quickly because he is smart.
“Thank you.”
“Excuse me?”
“If we didn’t have the immunity, we would still be stuck in stage 6.”
He wasn’t sure what to make of Basil’s sudden gratitude. Cha Jun Sung was invited to a meeting that Strategist had set up 6 days before leaving.
It was to talk about Cha Jun Sung and his potential immunity to the A virus, and the 7th stage of body modifications that is bothering the Rankers.
Explaining is easy because they all saw it.
He ran around unconscious when he was infected by the Oriax, and had gained the physical ability of stage 10 of body modifications when he came to his senses.
Cha Jun Sung said that and then said one more thing.
He asked if they were going to accept his blood, that has a high possibility with immunity.
The people for and against became clearly divided.
There were the Rankers who accepted and those who declined. For those who declined, there were two reasons.
In Weapon Master and Chamma Sword’s case, their pride wouldn’t let them get help from others and decided to find their own way.
Boom Buster, Longines, and Sea General said that it felt strange and took a negative stance, considering what could go wrong.
The rest of the Rankers accepted.
Park Jin Hyuk’s group happily accepted the blood, whether it was because they trusted Cha Jun Sung or they didn’t have fear.
Odin said that just a handful is enough.
He suggested they wait 2 days to see how their bodies accept the blood and change, before going through body modifications.
The Rankers who accepted help didn’t do so because they trust Cha Jun Sung or were convinced by him, they did so because they listened to their helpers.
Odin took out a part of Cha Jun Sung’s information and shared it with the other helpers to show that there is validity. Those at the top know that Cha Jun Sung is a mutant, but the helpers don’t know. This is because Odin hid it and the authorities blocked it.
Those who drank Cha Jun Sung’s blood were able to get through the 8th stage of body modifications.
They were surprised.
Immunity – they experienced it themselves, but they cannot believe it.
Weapon Master, Chama Sword, and Strategist broke through. Boom Buster, Longines, and Sea General felt the burden of stage 8 and stopped at 7.
“It’s done. I won’t die from taking some blood out. All I have to offer is blood.”
“Are you going to give this opportunity to others?”
“It’s just this one time.”
Those who turned it down and stopped at stage 7 wanted to get Cha Jun Sung’s help as it had definite effects, but that bus has left.
“What do you think of Strategist’s proposal?”
“There’s no reason to even think about it. Am I some kind of livestock to keep taking blood out of?”
Strategist asked Cha Jun Sung to supply blood periodically.
It’s ridiculous, but they know why.
If they can have a lot of strong Lifers to push out Bloody Kingdom and rebels, they can do whatever it takes whether it is going into missions.
Cha Jun Sung agreed with this, but they handle it themselves. He could sweep up Bloody Kingdom alone if he wanted to.
He doesn’t want to get involved in a conflict of interest. He’s busy enough chasing his goal.
Park Jin Hyuk’s group got a lot of help from the World Federation when he went missing, so he did them a lot of favors but this is it.
He has done enough.
Lifers, with the exception of Rankers, need to take the risk like Weapon Master and Chamma Sword and go through with body modifications.
Cha Jun Sung was given a 2% distribution ratio in return for giving blood.
He is getting a lot of points through the Albatrus while doing nothing.
If they keep coming in like this on their way to where the Deep-Sea Teeth live, they would be gathering several hundreds of thousands of points while doing nothing. With the additional reward points, they can recover the 10 million points they invested in Albatrus.
It depends on how they think about it, but it could be that he benefited from it.
Ring ring!
While the boring sight continued, Rankers listened to a clear notification sound.
They have been out at sea for a few weeks, but this has never happened.
[A giant vital reaction has been detected 20km ahead. It seems like it felt the Albatrus’ presence and is approaching fast.]
They have experienced this several hundred times, so it isn’t a special case that a mutant appeared.
