Chapter 70
Zombie Apocalypse (7)
[Skill: 「Total Offensive」]
[Grade: EX]
[Effect:
– Reduces own defense to 0, but increases attack power by 100% for [1 minute] proportional to defense
– Enables use of 「Rocket Launcher」 and 「Nuclear」 skills]
“That’s insane.”
“Totally insane.”
“But why is this your skill?”
“No idea.”
He’s probably the only one besides Kim Jun to possess an EX-grade skill.
And it reduces defense to 0, which is a tank’s lifeline.
Though attack power increases proportionally.
“It’d be good to use in emergencies.”
“That’s true.”
“Try using it once.”
“Here?”
“Not the nuke. Just the missile.”
[Skill: 「Nuclear」]
[Grade: SS]
[Effect: Devastates everything within [1km]!!]
A short and simple description.
But the meaning contained within was clear.
Annihilation.
Moreover, since it’s marked as [1km], it means the radius could grow even larger.
1km would even include the 63 Building.
In other words, using it here would endanger his companions too.
So.
“Try the rocket launcher.”
“…Why are your eyes sparkling like that?”
“Just try it, quickly.”
What man wouldn’t get excited hearing the name rocket launcher?
Kim Jun was no exception.
“I’m doing it?”
“Quickly.”
“「Total Offensive」!!”
Crack-
The sound of something breaking came from Park Min-soo’s body.
Crack crack-!
“Uooooh!”
In an instant, the ground rumbled low.
Park Min-soo’s breathing became rough and ragged, and the light slowly faded from his body.
Instead, heavy and dense vibrations of power surged up from beneath his skin.
The aura of a tank who had abandoned defense.
The skill that converts everything into offense, 「Total Offensive」.
Crack-!
The air split. The wind exploded.
As if the prelude to total war had begun.
Sizzle-!
Strange mana waves began to boil throughout Park Min-soo’s entire body.
Overwhelming mana flowed down along both his arms.
That energy took shape.
In the form of a weapon.
Rumble-
When Park Min-soo took a step forward, the ground caved in deeply.
Not the pressure of a single soldier, but of an entire army corps advancing.
And.
Park Min-soo’s lips slowly twisted into a grin.
“「Rockeeeeet-Launcherrrrr」!!”
Whoooosh-
Red beams of light exploded upward from Park Min-soo’s arms.
Dozens of rockets fired simultaneously.
Red trajectories soaring into the sky.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh-!
The rockets rotated while crossing each other’s orbits.
Trails of flame intertwined, and explosive sounds overlapped to create one massive storm.
Like a dragon writhing in mid-air, the rockets swirled and charged toward their target.
And then.
BOOOOOOM-!!
The explosion wasn’t just a single collision.
When the first explosion occurred, another explosion erupted in a chain reaction on top of it.
Light, sound, and pressure all rushed in at once.
Buildings were torn out by their roots.
Walls crumbled to dust, and the ground cracked from the vibrations.
In the wake of the storm, only unrecognizable debris remained.
From the center, Park Min-soo’s silhouette slowly walked out through the swirling dust.
Above his shoulder, the last rocket’s embers burned.
As that firelight illuminated his profile, Kim Jun muttered.
“Fucking awesome.”
*
Kim Jun, having witnessed Park Min-soo’s performance.
His hands were itching.
‘I should do it too.’
Since he’d already decided to demolish the 27th Floor, there was no reason to hold back.
Besides.
‘Supplies and loot can’t be destroyed.’
They’re protected at the system level.
Which means.
“Let’s blow it all up.”
“All of it?”
“Yeah. Everything.”
It means they could turn this place to ashes.
If it becomes ashes, finding supplies will be easier too.
No need to search buildings one by one, everything will be scattered on the ground.
Flutter-
Kim Jun spread his wings.
His body rose up.
Into the sky.
Toward the center of Yeouido.
“Whew.”
Kim Jun took a deep breath.
He drew up his mana.
All of it.
Zzzzt-!
Massive mana began to be released.
Enough to cover the entire 27th Floor.
It was more dangerous than Park Min-soo’s.
Kieee…
Kruuuu…
In an instant, every zombie on Yeouido stopped in its tracks.
They raised their heads.
Toward the sky.
Toward Kim Jun.
The zombies who had lost their emotions.
Even in their eyes, terror was evident.
Their instincts were screaming.
Run away.
That thing is dangerous.
That thing is death.
Fssss-!
Flames sparked from Kim Jun’s fingertips.
「Prism Flare」.
Stage 1, red flames.
The small spark gradually grew larger.
From palm-sized to basketball-sized.
Heat spread downward.
The air wavered.
Heat shimmer began to rise.
Fsht-!
Whoooosh-!
Stage 2, orange flames.
The temperature rose.
Hotter.
More intense.
Sizzle-
The sound of burning could be heard.
Whether zombies or buildings.
Everything began to melt away.
Kieee-!
Kruuuuu-!
The zombies screamed.
They fled.
But it was too late.
The heat had already covered everything around them.
Whoooosh-!
Stage 3, white flames.
The flames turned white.
Blindingly bright.
Hazy.
Nothing could be seen.
As if a massive star was floating there.
It was already large enough to cover the entire floor.
“Kugh…!”
But Kim Jun didn’t stop.
More, he drew up more.
He charged, and charged again.
Crackle-crackle-
Even the 「Dragon Skin」 wrapped around Kim Jun’s body began to singe.
Heat too intense to bear.
But.
‘I can endure this.’
Kim Jun didn’t stop.
Whoooooosh-!
Stage 4, blue flames.
Blue fire wrapped around Kim Jun’s entire body.
The size of the flames actually decreased.
However.
It became more dangerous.
Because it was condensed.
Because it gathered around Kim Jun as the center.
“Haaa…”
Kim Jun slowly exhaled.
He moved the blue flames.
From his fingertips to the blade.
Gradually.
Slowly.
Swish-
Eventually, the entire greatsword was dyed blue.
And then.
“「Black Flames」.”
Black fire wrapped around the blue flames.
Blue flames and black flames.
The two fires merged into one.
Zzzzt-!
Space distorted.
The temperature exceeded its limits.
Kim Jun raised his sword.
The target was clear.
The three bridges where zombies endlessly poured out.
Seogangdaegyo.
Mapodaegyo.
Wonhyodaegyo.
“「Dragon Slash」.”
Kim Jun lightly swung his greatsword.
But it wasn’t light.
For a moment.
The world was silent as if it had stopped.
And then.
Screeeeeeeech-!!!
The air was torn apart.
It let out a scream.
Swoooooosh-!
Blue and black flames flew out.
Toward the three bridges.
Sizzzzzzle-!!
The three bridges melted like lava and fell into the Han River like waterfalls.
Hiss-!!
The water began to boil.
Steam explosively shot up.
But that wasn’t the end of it.
Whoooooosh-!
The flames continued to burn.
Not just the bridges.
All of Yeouido began to burn.
The ground.
The buildings.
Everything.
Shrieeeek-!!
The zombies screamed.
They ran away.
But it was useless.
Sizzzzle-
The ground beneath their feet melted.
The asphalt boiled up.
The zombies collapsed.
Their feet melted away.
Their legs burned up.
Graaaah-!
The screams were brief.
Soon they turned to ash and scattered.
The buildings were the same.
Hisssss-
The outer walls began to melt.
The concrete turned black and charred.
Crumble-
The surface disappeared.
The steel frame was exposed.
The steel frame glowing red-hot.
But the blue and black flames showed no signs of stopping.
Sizzzzle-
Even the steel frame melted away.
Rummmmmble-!
The building collapsed.
One.
Two.
Three.
All the buildings in Yeouido came crashing down.
Whoooooosh-!
Outside Yeouido.
The transparent barrier that Hunters couldn’t enter.
The flames spread even beyond that.
The buildings beyond the barrier also burned.
Mapo.
Yeongdeungpo.
Yongsan.
All were engulfed in flames.
Of course, it was fake.
Just an illusion created by the Tower.
But it still burned.
As if the real Seoul was on fire.
“Hah… hah…”
Kim Jun breathed heavily.
The mana consumption was enormous.
‘The 63 Building should… be okay.’
Kim Jun had controlled it as much as possible.
The area around the 63 Building where his companions were.
He made sure the flames reached there more weakly.
However.
‘It’ll still be hot though.’
He couldn’t block it perfectly.
Heat spreads in all directions.
Despite his control, tremendous heat was being released.
Everything had melted away.
Whether buildings, ground, or zombies.
They were destroyed beyond recognition.
And soon.
The heat gradually subsided.
The dust settled.
What was revealed was.
“Wow… there’s so many?”
Park Min-soo let out an exclamation.
“They all came out.”
Kim Jun nodded.
On the ground that ‘used to be’ Yeouido.
Hundreds of supply boxes were scattered across the ruins.
“What are you doing.”
“Huh?”
“Hurry up and find the 「Antidote」.”
“Okay!!”
The two began desperately searching through the supplies.
*
“Seven 「Antidotes」, one hundred 「Protective Suits」…”
Seven 「Antidotes」 when he had barely found one before his regression.
Over a hundred 「Protective Suits」.
Beyond that, recovery potions effective on this 27th Floor, emergency rations, and various medicines.
“It’s overflowing.”
“I know, right.”
All of this was achieved in just one day.
‘Things should be comfortable now.’
Kim Jun looked around.
Yeouido was completely engulfed in flames.
「Black Flames」 covered everything in all directions.
Even if zombies swarmed over, they would burn up on their own, so there was no threat.
‘The remaining 6 days will be a breeze.’
There was nothing more to do on this floor.
His infected body was treated with the 「Antidote」.
From the melted tank wreckage stuck to the ground, he had even secured a 「Zombie Brain」.
He had gathered all the materials Adelaine requested, so preparations were complete.
Moreover, he still had five 「Antidotes」 to spare.
With the 「Protective Suits」 equipped, there was no risk of infection at all.
The 27th Floor conquest was essentially finished.
“Should we head back, hyung?”
“We should.”
To the 63 Building, the only thing remaining on this floor.
“That Ji-a girl, think she’ll be a little nicer now?”
Park Min-soo grinned.
Ryu Ji-a, who always grumbled at him.
Still, this time she hadn’t hesitated to risk her life for him, so wouldn’t she change a little?
“I wonder.”
Kim Jun chuckled.
“I doubt it.”
“As expected?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, it would be stranger if that girl became gentle.”
But contrary to expectations.
Bang-
Park Min-soo entered the shelter with a grin.
“Wahahahahahaha! I’m alive, right?”
At his playful words.
“Huuuuuuung! What do you mean ‘I’m alive’! You almost died!!”
Ryu Ji-a, tears and snot streaming down her face.
Thump-
Buried her head in Park Min-soo’s chest.
“D-don’t ever do that again…”
“Uh, uhhhhh… uhng…”
She sobbed while clutching his clothes.
