Zip!
It isn’t a sound that was really heard.
But Odin heard it. They lost contact with a Hundred Eye in the southeast region of Canada.
There is no way it is from a machine error.
He is 99.9% sure it has been destroyed.
Cha Jun Sung let 3 Universe Eyes go in a sandwich method in order to find a powerful group of mutants. And then he raised a few more on top of that.
It is a sandwich.
Since he already sent in 3, he sent in more to have views on the entire area and to find where Tyrant would appear.
3 Universe Eyes drew an approximate circle and searched a wide area. Odin can see everything.
300 Hundred Eyes.
It doesn’t have much effect that one is gone, but Odin felt importance in the fact that it was destroyed.
It doesn’t seem like the deed of a mutant.
The Hundred Eye is fundamentally a machine. Machines are not alive. They are just inanimate objects that float around.
They do not smell or make noise. They do not have any elements that would draw the interest of mutants. It just has hundreds of lenses that run inside. Even those are hidden behind a special alloy coated in transparency, that the lenses cannot be seen from outside.
A mutant with special sight would be able to see them, but that is the basic idea.
[Check video.]
It is impossible to measure with the tremendous amount of information that the 8 Universe Eyes send in.
However, Odin has the volume to handle this amount of information. He was just a little late in checking the video footage at times because he does what the Universe Eye cannot and the volume is divided.
He doesn’t look at it all together, but plays them sequentially.
Odin made pulling up the footage that was taken before the Hundred Eye was destroyed a priority, and checked it before looking at the other videos.
Papat!
He can adjust the time slot and speed. Odin made the play time on the video a day before it was destroyed. He can’t look at too little or too much of it.
This much is just right.
If there had been signs that it would be destroyed, this is when it would have happened.
Zip!
The video comes up.
Odin did his duty whether he was in communication with Cha Jun Sung or not. Helpers worked harder than anyone else. They aren’t relaxing just because they are silent. The work they do just isn’t made public.
Hundreds of lenses save the direction they are facing in a video.
Mutants wander in the vicinity, unaware of the Hundred Eye’s existence.
[That?]
A figure that resembles a dragonfly.
A micro reconnaissance robot is caught on camera. It is a special alloy that is coated to make it transparent, but micro reconnaissance robots change their perspectives between detection like heat, infrared ray, and sound wave.
Hundred Eye showed the original figure with sound wave detection.
The micro reconnaissance robot that had been by the Hundred Eye’s side for about 10 to 15 minutes left. It will be going back to the Lifer who is controlling it.
The Hundred Eye is unarmed. This is the same for its main body, the Universe Eye. It doesn’t have the ability to attack, so it can only stay still and watch.
After this, time passed without anything special happening.
While Cha Jun Sung was busy, Odin supported him and focused on checking the video footage.
And right before it was destroyed, an attack came at the Hundred Eye from somewhere and penetrated it. The video cut off and stopped there. The attack must have been something like sniping.
He knows one thing from watching the video and something that makes him wonder.
What he found out was that in the area that the Hundred Eye was searching, there is an area the size of multiple stadiums that they cannot search.
This kind of case normally occurs when they use equipment with EMP capabilities. Or it could be due to a sound wave series – blocking devices that use sound.
It is also a necessity for Lifers because mutants hate it.
The question here is why they destroyed it.
Was there a reason to go the lengths to destroy it?
Were they bothered because they felt like they were being watched?
That could be it.
But it isn’t logical.
Because they like destroying other people’s equipment and causing them trouble? He cannot explain it clearly.
[Connecting to the Universe Eye’s wide range network. Executing observer mode.]
He had only filtered the footage sent to him until now. He hadn’t controlled the search system himself.
Big mistakes usually come from small mistakes. There are things that one can ignore, but he takes care of everything, whatever it is, because he does not want to let errors pass that could create bigger issues later.
Odin’s artificial intelligence goes into the Universe Eye of the destroyed Hundred Eye. It can no longer be called a simple equipment geared for searching. He is now able to use more of the micro features due to the observer mode. He left enough abilities in the PDA not to interfere with the mission.
He needs to find out who destroyed it.
A Lifer who advanced all the way to pioneer level in the virtual version will know what the Universe Eye is.
Helpers are artificial intelligence, not humans.
That is why they do not have biases. They leave open all possibilities. The only difference is whether the probability is large or small.
It could be an ordinary Lifer, but there is a high possibility that it is Tyrant who has entered the Black Devil mission. Odin knows where Tyrant’s initial summons area is.
Helpers communicate with each other.
That communication isn’t constant. It continues roughly for a month or so and then gets cut off. So with time, not even helpers know each other’s locations.
Gabenu will know.
He doesn’t get involved directly. This is what Jigneon wanted. He created this situation in order to clean up the mess Borteth has made, but he only gets involved up until Cha Jun Sung enters the mission.
Zing!
Odin called in the subsets of the Universe Eye he is controlling with his authority.
Since he is managing them himself, searching becomes more thorough.
If it is Tyrant, he will have guessed that it is Cha Jun Sung’s equipment. He must know since it is a level S store item.
He would never guess that Cha Jun Sung knows of his identity.
It was impossible to know that the one who destroyed the Hundred Eye out of countless Lifers, is Tyrant. If they throw bait, he will probably take it right away.
[Lifer Cha Jun Sung, we’ll have to get ready.]
They need a battlefield for Cha Jun Sung. They will create a scene for their unwelcome guests.
***
Odin gave all of the information he acquired to Cha Jun Sung. Helpers are in tandem with the Lifers they are assigned to.
They have the obligation to grow their Lifers in the midst of top level missions. This is a partnership that the supervisors created in order to have a little more balance. Odin needs to help Cha Jun Sung with whatever he needs as long as it does not break the rules, so he just needs to tell Cha Jun Sung everything he saw and thought.
“Pick ones with wings.”
Cha Jun Sung orders the Queen.
He needs a lot of flying Bomb Ants. The ones on ground become useless if Lifers change their battlesuits to flight mode. They might as well be sandbags. They are not completely useless, but there is a lot lacking in using them as their main means of attack. They desperately need something to cover this.
He can know just from watching the last battle.
They can suffer damages in a battle with mutants, but they were devastated by raid level Lifers.
Queen Bomb Ant understood what Cha Jun Sung meant. She must have felt something too because she didn’t argue with him.
Flying Bomb Ants are born at a rate of 1/100 of that of ordinary Bomb Ants.
If the Queen Bomb Ant takes the sacrifice, she can control the probability. It is consuming stamina and nutrients. In the aftermath of the battle, the number of Bomb Ants was reduced to 20,000. They have gone to less than half, since they were 50,000 before.
Cha Jun Sung decided to maintain the current number of ordinary Bomb Ants and to fill up the rest with flying Bomb Ants if they could. They made about 200 per day.
Queen Bomb Ant complained because it was tiring, but he had no intention of considering her comfort. Tyrant could come barging in at any moment.
As long as Cha Jun Sung didn’t hide and the size of the land they were on was limited, they would come face-to-face at some point and that time was approaching.
“We need at least 5000. The more, the better.”
There are 10,000 people.
They will all be levels B and C, the elite of Rage guild. In mutant terms, they will be levels 5 and 6, and Tyrant will be a level 8.
It’s a virtually impossible power.
He needs to be smart about it if he is to face off against a power like that. Of course Cha Jun Sung thought of an operation that could work.
It is a very basic and primitive operation.
First, he needs to strike powerfully when they don’t know anything in order to have a chance of winning.
He is doing that work in advance right now in a nearby city.
That place will become Cha Jun Sung and Tyrant’s battlefield. They won’t go elsewhere. They need to do it whether he lures them there or something.
[A Hundred Eye was just destroyed. This is the 4th one.]
“He’ll think he’s luring me to him, right?”
[He could be.]
When Odin couldn’t find Tyrant’s exact location, he cleverly exposed the Hundred Eyes to find an approximate area.
To predict Tyrant’s thoughts, he could be destroying Hundred Eyes to make Cha Jun Sung suspicious and to come looking for him.
Both sides are baiting the other.
In this, Cha Jun Sung has an advantage because he knows the other’s identity. He isn’t sure. It’s just what he thinks.
“Ant Hell.”
Operation name Ant Hell.
He will bring them all in and squeeze them to death.
