The day after the monster retreated, the academy was put on alert.

First of all, this is because the monster used an amorphous body to hide underground.

Naturally, safety concerns arose, but school teachers like Lee Seong-pil dismissed the idea, saying that the shield protects even underground.

But the problem is that the student suffered.

The sight of Lim Heon-su absorbing the monster and stopping Jetman was enough to shock everyone.

Is Lim Heon-soo a monster, or was he simply manipulated?

So much so that there is even discussion about switching to a dormitory system for all students.

There was a lot of discussion about this and the internet was abuzz with it.

-Jetman couldn’t fight properly because of the hostages.

From what I see, it doesn’t seem that threatening…

-Are you sure it’s hiding and coming out again?

-I’m screwed. What should I do?

-Can’t we just ignore it and kill it? To put it bluntly, a lot of people could die because of that one thing.

– That’s a bit harsh.

-You’re acting nice. Wouldn’t that be better than dying to a monster?

People had many active discussions about a student named Lim Heon-su.

Jetman couldn’t kill him because he cared about him. It doesn’t matter if Lim Heon-soo was a monster, but the results of the investigation confirm that he was originally a human.

So it was a problem.

The committee was also discussing measures to resolve this issue.

The chairman smiled bitterly when he saw the monster attacking Lim Heon-su as a shield.

“A very clever guy. It can be seen as having human intelligence.”

“It stinks to say no.”

Chisignon also stands up, sticking out his new regent head.

“In reality, that student named Lim was captured by a monster and was either brainwashed or a parasite. But what really needs to be questioned is the abilities of that mud monster, Mudfranken.”

“I saw a report from the Solar Guild in Korea, and it said that among the entities, there is a monster leading the monsters.”

Cheol-min Lee also adds to it.

Chisignon glares for a moment at the person who stole what he had to say.

“That’s what I have to say. Commissioner Lee.”

“I’m sorry about this. Because it’s something related to my home country. Let’s continue.

“Hmm. Well, honestly, there have already been reports of monsters parasitizing monsters. Representative examples include minotaur wasps and necromancer worms. However, that creature has an unusually irregular body. There is no specific form. But he controls monsters.”

What they were most concerned about was, of course, the ability to control monsters.

“Manipulating other monsters while being a parasite? And does it even affect people? This is my first time seeing a guy like this.”

“As a result of the research, it is meaningless to say that parasitic monsters live on humans. If the host is weak, parasitic monsters are of little use. But this case is much different.”

Avena supplements there.

Brooke chuckled, holding the report in one hand.

“But these are all old reports, right? What we met was an artist who manipulates people, moves monsters, and creates monsters from pieces of corpses. Rather, it has become difficult to intercept the main body. Wow, all sorts of guys keep coming out.”

“If it is a new species, it must be classified anew. Because it has no form, it is easy to hide and you never know when and where the monster will move due to its control ability.”

“Now that I think about it, if this guy can even move a dead body, wouldn’t it be better to strip him of the name Necromancer Worm?”

Avena frowns at Brooke’s joke.

“This is not the time to joke around. There are a total of 10 types of parasite-type and brainwashing-type monsters, and the new species seems to perform both brainwashing and parasitism at the same time. This is serious. A single monster creates a huge monster and goes around? This is a significant threat.”

“You have to catch it no matter what. The prerequisite is what to do with the captured boy.”

Lee Cheol-min now turned his attention to the really important issue.

“The boy is now with a monster, either brainwashed or a parasite. It’s clear that the next time he appears, he’ll probably put a boy in front again.”

“So? Let’s leave the monster alone? The boy wasn’t a monster, but now he might be a monster, right?”

When Sisignon made a puzzled expression, Lee Cheol-min raised the corner of his mouth.

“Then, should we bomb it?”

“What?”

“According to some people, if they want to attack it because it is a monster, I have no intention of opposing it. As soon as Jetman comes out without hesitation, the bomb kills the boy with one hit.”

“Commissioner Lee! Are you mocking us now?”

“It can’t be. As for Commissioner Chisignon, there is no way he would think of such a ridiculous thing. The important thing is to check the boy’s condition and take him out separately.”

“Is that possible? Even Jetman is impossible?”

“Jetman’s attacks are huge and large. It is not easy to pull out human-sized objects in detail. But we can. Just the human part. Detailed precision surgery that Jetman could never do.”

The committee was silent at Lee Cheol-min’s words.

The chairman also watches quietly and says something.

“Hanging a bell around the cat’s neck.”

“Oh my, even the chairman?”

“Listen to what people say until the end. You can hang a bell around a cat’s neck, but it would be much more comfortable if Jetman hung the bell.”

“As expected. You are the chairman. That’s it.”

This conversation is engraved in the minds of the committee members.

It is difficult to rescue the boy against Jetman, humans, or giant monsters.

But what if we cooperate?

Lee Cheol-min stands up immediately.

“As seen in many monster extermination cases, it is assumed that Jetman is a transformed human, and there is no major problem with communication, such as even greeting people. Maybe we can use this to protect the boy.”

“Wait a minute. Commissioner Lee.”

At this time, Brooke intervenes.

“Why? Brook?”

“I understand what you are saying, but how are you going to communicate with Jetman? Since you don’t know its identity, it’s hard to see it except when the monster appears, isn’t it?”

“I couldn’t solve that difficult problem. So, let’s make a plan among ourselves and tell him when Jetman shows up.”

“This operation is dangerous as expected. So I like it.”

Brooke giggled.

Eventually, they began to formulate their own operations while waiting for Jetman.

***

wednesday.

Since the practical competition was canceled, I had to take classes in a crowded classroom again.

But the atmosphere is not good. That’s what happened near the academy, and you never know when and where a monster will pop out.

In addition, Lim Heon-su’s parents came to the school and were crying and looking for their child.

The students also felt uneasy as they continued to hear the sorrowful sounds outside the window.

Shin Je-ul also didn’t look very good whenever he heard that sound.

‘We have to wait until at least Friday for the drill rhino to be completed. It’s been quite spectacular since early June.’

Whether it ran to the sea or underground, there was currently no way for Shinjeul to catch it.

So I had to come up with a strategy.

‘You have to block the floor so they can’t escape.’

Because it has a liquid body, it is difficult to attack because it has a hostage even if it takes time.

In other words, if there are no hostages, a wave of attacks can be launched.

When the enemy reappeared, Shin Jeul was worried about what technique he would use to deal with it.

‘Remove the hostages first. But with my skills, it’s fast… .’

You have to move quickly.

Rather, an attack that focuses on speed rather than powerful destructive power is needed.

‘Let’s accelerate.’

Since rapid movement is required during rescue, it is better to counter with acceleration.

‘Because the weapon regenerates even if it is split into elbow blades. Cut at high speed.’

First of all, I was at a loss as to how to use the new weapons, such as elbow rockets and high-speed thrusters.

‘Wouldn’t it be useful against this monster?’

Shin Je-ul was so busy thinking about as many things as possible in his head that he didn’t even notice Lasia staring at him right next to him.

However, due to Lasia’s personality, she did not speak first, and there was another highlight of the day.

10:45 AM. Class is supposed to be going on, but suddenly the door opens. The teacher was supposed to come as usual, but a person who surprised everyone appeared.

“Still immature lambs, how have you been doing?”

The person who caught everyone’s attention was Lee Cheol-min, who boasted a neat beard.

The central figure of the World Awakened Committee has appeared here?

“Lee Cheol-min?”

“One of the world’s greatest awakeners?”

“Why is that person here?”

When they all looked at them with surprised faces, Lee Cheol-min refocused their attention with applause.

“Don’t be surprised. The reason I came here in person is to give advice just in case.”

Lee Cheol-min took off his stylish suit jacket in front of everyone.

“In fact, our committee also mobilized earthquake detectors, but unfortunately they were not detected. Either it stays the same or it no longer exists.”

“…”

“This Mud Franken, we named it Mud Franken, so please note. Anyway, this Mud Franken will appear again.”

At this time, Shin Jeul felt a strange sense of anxiety. Lee Cheol-min speaks clearly in front of all of them.

“This artificial island is, of course, an artificially created city. Even if you hide underground, the bottom is the sea. I spoke to the Combined Fleet and they said there was nothing special coming out of the sea. So, recognize that it continues to exist somewhere underground on this artificial island. And the chances of your friend dying are still unknown. Rather, there is a high probability that he is alive. This Mud Franken’s intelligence is considerable. There would be no need to kill the hostage.”

At the same time, Lee Cheol-min showed everyone how Lim Heon-soo was captured on the large screen.

“Unfortunately, Jetman couldn’t catch him, but he can attack at any time as long as he saves a student named Lim Heon-su. But as you can see, Jetman’s movements are strong and large.”

On the screen, you can see Jetman using lasers and current emitters.

Its power is enough to blow away the upper body of a monster nearly 100 meters tall.

Shin Je-ul was expecting that Lee Cheol-min didn’t come here just to show off.

In fact, Lee Cheol-min also got to the point.

“Of course, when you see this, you might think, ‘Why are you telling us this?’ There must be some students who do it. We didn’t come here to sound helpless like this. If a monster appears, rescuing the child named Lim Heon-su will be the top priority. We just need cooperation.”

“Cooperation?”

Shin Je-ul was puzzled. Are you saying that you are not a professional and cooperate with students?

Lee Cheol-min grinned.

At this time, Lee Cheol-min disappeared before my eyes. In this class, only Daeho Ahn, April, Lasia, and Ray looked toward Shin Jeul.

Shin Jeul also looked blankly, then suddenly felt a touch on his shoulder and turned his head.

“Huh?”

Lee Cheol-min was already standing next to Shin Je-ul.

The moment Shin Je-ul looked up in surprise, a playful voice came out of Lee Cheol-min’s mouth.

“So, I ask for your cooperation. Jetman.”

“!”

Shin Jeul’s heart was pounding violently. At the same time, my mind becomes completely white. Lee Cheol-min now calls himself Jetman? I was becoming confused about how to deal with this situation.

Beyond Lee Cheol-min’s sly smile, there is a sense of fear as if he has guessed that he is really Jetman.

‘no. no. If that were the case, we would have contacted you a long time ago.’

Shin Jeul began to struggle to calm his startled heart for a few seconds.

“NeaaᅟᅵᆷㄴEermin’s tusk?”

However, unlike Shin Je-ul, who is trying to stay calm, his body is freaking out and is showing signs of panic.

Lee Cheol-min giggles and takes his hand away.

“There is a possibility that this boy is also Jetman. It doesn’t matter who it is. The important thing is, according to our guess, Jetman is an official of this academy. In particular, there is a high probability that they are students.”

After Lee Cheol-min passed by, Shin Je-ul was busy trying to control his startled heart.

Fortunately, looking at the way he speaks, he literally just tried it once, but it was just him.

‘I was surprised.’

Lee Cheol-min sighs and announces to everyone.

“So, I ask you this. I don’t know who it is, but I want to ask you to cooperate when I transform. That’s why I’m telling you the plan.”

Since we can’t specify who Jetman is, we’re letting everyone know.

This is Lim Heon-su’s rescue plan.

As Jetman maintains a stalemate with the monster and attracts attention, powerful people move inside to eliminate Lim Heon-su.

Jetman continues to induce Mud Franken’s ‘regeneration’, and at one of the many timings, the pros enter and try to take Lim Heon-soo away.

“We also don’t know how our relationship with Jetman will turn out. I wish we could communicate with each other, but it’s one-way communication. So, I hope you understand that it is a heavy rescue method. The sword is usually mounted on the elbow, so it would be appreciated if it enforced regenerative abilities. Any questions?”

“Hey.”

At this time, Lasia raises her hand.

“Say. Lasia, one of the excellent students.”

“Why are you telling everyone this because Jetman is among the students in our class? Why are you a student?”

Although it was a question from the person sitting next to him, Shin Je-ul’s heart was still racing.

Lee Cheol-min smiled meaningfully.

“Are you a school official or a student? There is still a lot of discussion, but the most likely possibility is that he is a student.”

“Why?”

“You can’t tell me. This is a matter we are investigating in our own way. Jetman’s identity. This is also our committee’s job.”

This was the end of Lee Cheol-min’s words. Additionally, April asked if they could cooperate as well.

“Of course. This operation is the first collaboration with Jetman. You can get help. Only when the pros can’t do it. Miss April. Am I still greedy?”

“Of course. It might be enough to hit you.”

However, for Shin Je-ul, their investigation, which narrowed the scope to students, was more scary than anything else.

‘How do you narrow it down to students? ‘Is it because the teachers have a clear identity?’

The committee tries to uncover Jetman’s identity.

Shin Jeul is anxious, but time just passes by. The next day, in the afternoon, an earthquake occurred and a monster came out.

But the appearance was different from before.

“Je, Jeulth. That monster has changed its appearance!”

The appearance of what appeared to be a defective monitor was different from before. Mud Franken, which was just a circular lump, had changed into a human form and was coming towards this place.
