Only I Have Two Towers Episode 283

Russia’s Secret Weapon

Seoul Player Hunter Bureau Isolation Facility.

Jin Yun-ho, who had brought the disposal team and medical staff, stood in front of the door.

“Haah.”

He let out a quiet sigh.

He didn’t want to swipe it. The card key.

But he had to swipe it.

Even Jin Yun-ho, who received organizational protection, had procedures that absolutely had to be followed.

He turned around and opened his mouth.

“As I mentioned earlier, it might be a bit grotesque.”

The waiting medical staff waved their hands dismissively.

“Oh come on, Team Leader. This is our specialty, you know. It’s not like we’ve been doing this for just a day or two.”

The disposal team nodded as if they felt the same way.

He had tried to lay some groundwork hoping they’d be a little less shocked.

It didn’t seem like it would have any meaningful effect.

“Then I’ll open it.”

He resignedly swiped the card key.

The medical staff and disposal team entered casually without much thought, as usual.

Even up to this moment, they thought.

There would be just one corpse, no different from any other day.

However.

“Hueok!”

As soon as they entered, an exclamation close to a scream burst out.

People covering their mouths, unable to hide their shocked expressions.

It was an understandable reaction.

Jin Yun-ho had reacted the same way.

“T-Team Leader? What on earth is this…? How should we…?”

The medical staff trailed off.

The horribly distorted face of Jaeung Construction Chairman Ryu Jin-su.

It wasn’t a matter of being terrified or not.

It seemed as if he had fully received all the pain and fear a human could experience.

Moreover, he had completely rotted.

A corpse that had been dead for less than a day.

“This… it’s not an undead, right?”

The medical staff examined the corpse from a distance.

Jin Yun-ho shrugged his shoulders.

“He’s definitely dead, so you don’t need to worry.”

“Team Leader Jin Yun-ho. I naturally don’t think it would be, but…”

“It’s not. So don’t worry and just conduct the examination.”

No matter how powerful the Player Hunter Bureau was, inhumane physical torture was absolutely prohibited.

To confirm whether this was properly observed, medical staff would conduct examination procedures like this before disposal after death.

“Th-then we’ll begin the examination.”

After examining thoroughly for a while, the medical staff slowly nodded.

Far from torture, there wasn’t even a trace of being roughly touched anywhere.

This had happened without any external intervention.

“You wouldn’t tell us even if we asked, right? How this happened.”

“Yes. It’s classified information.”

He said it to sound impressive, but actually Jin Yun-ho didn’t know either.

He hadn’t asked Jinhyeok about it in the first place.

Ding.

He checked the text message.

It was an emergency call from the control room.

“Then I’ll leave it to you.”

After bowing his head, he left the isolation facility and headed to the control room.

Yun Mi-ri was typing on the keyboard, looking extremely serious for some reason.

“What’s wrong?”

“Something’s gone wrong.”

She displayed on screen the message Lee Kang-san had sent to the Player Hunter Bureau.

Messages sent periodically according to the promised schedule.

Seeing this, Jin Yun-ho also frowned.

“That Hunter Lee Kang-san sent all of these punctually?”

Whatever it was, he was famous for not following established rules the most.

For such a person to send everything without being even a minute late was impossible.

“I didn’t think much of it at first, but it seemed strange so I contacted the Polish Player Hunter Bureau.”

Yun Mi-ri shook her head.

“They confirmed they agreed to help find the missing National Intelligence Service employee together, but they replied they’d never heard the name Lee Kang-san before.”

It was a situation that didn’t make sense even after hearing it.

Lee Kang-san had definitely gotten into the car following the Polish Hunter Bureau’s reception personnel.

“What about hunters near Poland?”

“Hunter Cheon Se-yeon happens to be in Prague on vacation, so I left a message for her. I also asked available personnel among hunters on business trips in Europe to go to Krakow, Poland.”

Jin Yun-ho took out his phone and called Cheon Se-yeon’s personal number.

‘…It’s turned off?’

Although she grumbled daily about not calling during vacation, Cheon Se-yeon was a professional.

She always checked for contact in preparation for emergencies, yet her phone was turned off.

It was the first time this had happened since he’d known Cheon Se-yeon.

A chilling sensation suddenly rushed to the back of his neck.

Jin Yun-ho organized his thoughts and began moving busily.

“Check the arrival times of personnel going from Europe to Krakow, contact neighboring countries’ Player Hunter Bureaus to request search support. Track Hunter Lee Kang-san and Hunter Cheon Se-yeon’s phones. I’ll go get approval now, so don’t worry about that.”

After giving instructions, Jin Yun-ho quickly left the control room.

There was no information obtained yet.

Moreover, the ones who lost contact were none other than Lee Kang-san and Cheon Se-yeon.

Normally, these were strong individuals he wouldn’t worry about even if told to, so why did he feel so ominous today?

Creak.

Hoping it was just unnecessary worry due to excessive caution.

He quickened his pace toward headquarters.

KWAGAGAGAGAK!!

Roche rolled her body from the explosion that blew away half the castle.

“Wow. No mercy at all. We were on the same side for a long time though.”

KWAJAK!!

Cheon Se-yeon, who had pulverized the approaching soldiers, turned her head.

Endless firepower and troops pouring out.

There were really an annoyingly large number of them.

“Wait, but isn’t this the middle of the city?! With all this chaos happening, does no one know?”

“They won’t know. During unofficial military operations, concealment ability users always accompany them.”

Cheon Se-yeon’s eyes widened as she looked at Roche.

Her waist area was soaked with blood.

“Are you hurt?!”

Roche shrugged as if it was nothing.

“I wasn’t injured today, but a previous wound opened up a bit.”

I couldn’t help but feel a bit stunned.

With that much bleeding, it must be incredibly painful, but Roche showed not even the slightest change in expression, as if this was routine.

“Roche. Wouldn’t it be better to just break through to where we were originally heading?”

It’s not that I don’t trust her.

But if we keep wandering around the maze-like interior of the castle like this, we’ll collapse first.

Roche stood up and pointed toward the outer wall of Wawel Castle with her chin.

“See those lights densely packed outside? We can’t go in there.”

“Is it because of that secret weapon or whatever you mentioned earlier?”

“Yes. Army Major General Anastasia Krasova. She’s a Russian Unofficial Ranker. If conditions are met, she’d be in the top five.”

“Top five…?”

Roche nodded.

“Anastasia of the Flash. She manipulates light. Ridiculously overpowered and incredibly strong. Her only weakness is that she can’t use her abilities in places without light. So she always stays within light. Those lights are probably connected to Anastasia, and they’ll move the moment we touch them. And if we encounter her in this state.”

Roche smiled.

“The game of cops and robbers ends there. Game over.”

Se-yeon ran her hand through her hair.

Now I understood why Roche kept digging into dark places.

I also understood why the enemy kept increasing the lights to an excessive degree.

‘Damn.’

Normally, I would have suggested just smashing through regardless of whether they were rankers or whatever.

But she too hadn’t come this far without cost.

In this state, facing a top ranker from Russia of all countries. We might actually die.

“Ugh, this old man really.”

I shook the slumped Lee Kang-san once more.

Maybe I should just abandon him and go.

“Mmm… Hunter Cheon Se-yeon?”

“Huh? Old Man! Wake up! This isn’t the time to be lying down! We’re really about to die!”

Lee Kang-san, who barely opened his eyes, checked his physical condition.

His body was one thing, but his head felt like it was splitting.

“Excuse me for a moment.”

Roche approached and lifted Lee Kang-san’s eyelid.

“The hypnosis has been broken.”

Roche smiled.

The time given to the client was short, and above all, this man’s mental strength was extraordinary.

He acted just once and then broke free immediately.

“Hypnosis?”

“The client has been providing massive funding to the Russian Military for three years…”

Just as she was about to continue, a light shot from somewhere and illuminated Roche.

And before she could react.

“Traitor bitch.”

Crash!!!

Kicked Roche went flying to the end of the corridor.

Lee Kang-san squeezed out his remaining strength to use his ability, but it was futile.

In the blink of an eye, Anastasia had retreated beyond range, riding the light.

“Ever been kicked at the speed of light?”

Anastasia’s figure disappeared.

Immediately after, lights turned on from all directions, illuminating Se-yeon and Lee Kang-san.

“Run.”

“What?”

“I said run. You can’t win against that…”

Lee Kang-san disappeared from view.

Like Roche, Lee Kang-san went flying far away.

Se-yeon’s eyes widened.

I hadn’t looked away or blinked.

Yet all I saw was a flash that passed by in an instant.

Crash!!

A barrage of light struck Se-yeon’s body.

Even with divine power wrapped around me, this much trembling.

If I took a direct hit, there wouldn’t even be bones left to collect.

“Damn it…!”

I turned my shield in that direction, but.

“Disgustingly slow.”

A foot came flying toward the right side of my head.

Se-yeon was kicked and slammed into the wall.

Thanks to divine power, I wasn’t injured.

However, it was being rapidly depleted by the attacks pouring down at impossible speed.

Crash!!

I unleashed my output with perfect timing, but it was futile.

Too fast, way too fast.

So fast I couldn’t even think of keeping up.

With a cracking sound, the ceiling above flew away.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud.

Light shot from the helicopter illuminated Se-yeon’s head.

From below, small lights were being shot upward to create a path connecting each light.

They had set the stage for Anastasia.

“No thanks to the spotlight…?!”

I tried to deal with the helicopter first, but.

Anastasia had already approached and was extending her hand.

Hundreds of light beams shot from there.

I reacted immediately and turned my shield, but I was late again.

No matter how fast I reacted, I couldn’t outrun light.

Crash!!!!!

Wawel Castle reached its limit before Se-yeon’s output did.

Cracks spread across the floor and walls alike, and part of Wawel Castle collapsed helplessly.

“Wh… oa.”

I let out a small exclamation and blew away the debris that had accumulated on my body.

“What kind of thing is that.”

I gasped for breath and looked up.

Anastasia floating in the sky, wrapped in light.

This was a first since my awakening.

Being beaten so helplessly like this.

“Really like a cockroach.”

Se-yeon raised the corner of her mouth.

The divine power that had made that cockroach-like behavior possible was almost exhausted now.

“Yawn.”

Anastasia yawned and spread both arms.

Anastasia gathering the surrounding light.

“Your country is quite understandable too. To think this is all a ranker amounts to.”

Perhaps because I was facing a life-threatening crisis for the first time in my life.

Even though these were words that would normally make me furious, they didn’t register.

“Time to die.”

Anastasia stretched both arms forward as if bored.

And at that moment.

[Light Devouring]

The light of Wawel Castle disappeared.
