Chapter Index

    Drinking and talking seemed like a good idea, except there were a few problems.

    And among those problems was the lack of hard alcohol on campus.

    They say they collected all the things that could catch fire to make firebombs.

    Unless you go to another area, it was safe to assume that there would be no hard alcohol on campus.

    To be exact, there was no alcohol to drink.

    A ban on hard alcohol has been issued until the situation is over.

    Of course, if I ask for it, I’ll be able to get it.

    But I had no intention of accepting alcohol like that.

    However, I had no intention of speaking soberly.

    It was obvious that I would either be embarrassed and not be able to speak properly, or I would end up doing something that didn’t exist.

    “… What should I do?”

    I thought for a moment.

    It wasn’t that there was no answer at all.

    You could still drink low-alcohol alcohol, such as beer or soju.

    But until I can properly reveal my true feelings.

    Noh Chang-hoon also got drunk and got serious with each other… The alcohol content was too low to drink until conversation was possible.

    It seemed like it would probably be possible to hold a few bottles.

    No, in some cases, you may need several dozen bottles.

    And that level of alcohol was difficult to obtain.

    Not at all… It wasn’t that it couldn’t be obtained.

    I was also an important person on campus, and Noh Chang-hoon was also an important person.

    If I really tried to get it, I could somehow get a few dozen bottles.

    But that was ignoring other people.

    We’re trying to work hard to drink just one bottle, but if we get dozens of bottles through our connections and drink them alone, we’ll be in big trouble.

    Even if there was something that contributed to the community, it was not possible to do anything that was not possible.

    “I want to talk today.”

    I wish I could at least get some alcohol.

    Anyway, it was something we could talk about before going to Jinju.

    As long as I got some alcohol, we could talk again later, so I didn’t think there would be any problem.

    I didn’t think there would be a problem if I had gotten it myself anyway.

    There was no one to criticize, and I felt like I could talk comfortably.

    The problem was where to get high-alcohol alcohol.

    It seemed difficult to find it near Busan.

    Since I had already collected all the supplies a long time ago, I thought it would be better not to look for them.

    “There is one way.”

    Where there is a military base. I thought I would get good results if I went up there.

    Since I’ve been there once before, it was easy to find the way.

    It wouldn’t take too long if I went by bike, so I thought I could get a few bottles today.

    You should be able to get a decent alcoholic drink in about two to three hours.

    And after drinking that drink, we will be able to tell each other the truth.

    … I don’t know why it was concluded this way.

    Well, it was better to move than to stay still.

    Coincidentally, the bicycle was still there, and the baton was still there.

    So I thought it would be okay to just wander around for a few hours.

    These days, times are good, and larger supermarkets carry strong alcohol like vodka.

    The worries didn’t last long.

    I picked up my baton and rode my parked bicycle.

    Then, I slowly pedaled down and told the guard that I wanted to see Busan for a few hours.

    that… I didn’t think he was saying he was going out because he wanted to get alcohol.

    Fortunately, the guard didn’t seem to have any doubts, saying that the restoration of Busan was progressing well these days.

    Thanks to you, it was only good for me.

    Even when I went out riding my bike, there was no problem.

    Downtown Busan was still full of ruins.

    But it didn’t seem like everything was in ruins.

    People began to move forward again even in this situation.

    Using a body that is stronger than before, you start building everything from scratch.

    Of course, it wasn’t easy.

    There wasn’t as much information as before, and everything was from scratch.

    Even after making something, there were many things I had to destroy and start over.

    But people would start again, just like they had overcome it.

    I had no idea that I would feel patriotism in a place like this, but I felt like it could be called the miracle of the Nakdong River.

    To that extent, Busan was trying to regain its former self.

    It wasn’t that there was anything to worry about.

    food. drinking water. And many more.

    It wasn’t that I didn’t trust the leadership, but there were too many things to prepare.

    If the Jinju issue was resolved, it seemed like I would have to spend some time looking for supplies.

    “Somehow I found a reason.”

    Thanks to this, I didn’t think I would get scolded by Noh Chang-hoon or anything like that.

    So I kept pedaling and headed towards the military base.

    And I tried to go up, but I was stopped by the soldiers.

    The reason was quickly apparent. Originally, security at the military base had to be tight, and it seemed that there were many important people there.

    I was still able to get to the nearby area, but as I got close to the military base, people stopped me, saying I couldn’t pass through.

    Even though I said I would go scout while I had time, they said I couldn’t do it.

    And there, a middle-aged man who appeared to be of the highest rank spoke to me, saying he was sorry.

    “If they were incompetent politicians like usual, I would say I don’t know and let them go.”

    “Everyone is so competent now that it’s hard to do that, right?”

    “Now that all the incompetent politicians and generals are dead, everyone is coming to their senses and only talking about valuable things.”

    “Haha… ”

    “Well, they say political parties are meaningless anymore, but that doesn’t mean negotiation or political skills are going anywhere.”

    “Yes, well.”

    “Isn’t it dog poop used as medicine when you have to stand at the table? Let’s go up.”

    “… Yes?”

    I didn’t know why they suddenly gave me permission.

    Just a few minutes ago, the man was blocking the road, saying he couldn’t pass.

    And he said that only valuable stories are being exchanged at the military base.

    I wondered if he knew who I was and didn’t catch it.

    If I had bad intentions and tried to kill people, wouldn’t it be a very big problem?

    “Well, who else but you rides around on a bicycle naked on a cold day like this?”

    “… Ah.”

    “There are rumors that he walks around with a strange club and breaks zombie heads.”

    “… ”

    “Even if you are hit by a rifle, you bounce back, and even if you fall from a high-rise building, you are fine. You said you made those mutants pee with your eyes?”

    I immediately pedaled to increase speed.

    I heard him say thank you from behind, saying that thanks to him he was able to meet his family again, but I ignored it.

    “Oh, there are zombies roaming around Gijang, so be careful!”

    “I win everything anyway!”

    “Have a good scouting!”

    I really think Noh Chang-hoon would have laughed at me if he had seen it.

    Not some kind of person from the north. It seemed like a lot of exaggeration.

    … No, that’s not an exaggeration at all, is it? When I thought about it, it seemed like everything was true.

    Gradually, the durability of the body itself was increasing significantly.

    There was no problem with the pistol being already hit, and the shotgun ended up only slightly piercing the skin.

    It was clear that if this happened, the rifle would be no problem.

    Even if you fall from a high-rise building… I’m not sure if I’m okay.

    I thought I would know if I fell in person.

    The last time I fought a monster, it felt like I fell from the 5th floor to the 3rd floor.

    After all, it was necessary to fall once again.

    It’s like he was scared because he thought he was going to be killed by a pistol, but went on a rampage after making sure he wasn’t killed.

    If you know it in advance, you will be able to use it.

    I’m not sure when and how I’ll use it…

    Still, it would be good to know.

    I gathered my thoughts there and kept pedaling forward.

    “This is… It’s complete shit.”

    The further we headed toward Gijang-eup, the more unusual the surrounding scenery became.

    Just by looking at it, it was clear that something strange was happening.

    First of all, the road was green. There was a lot of green stuff spread out on the asphalt, giving it an ominous feeling.

    It seemed a little sticky, but I heard a clicking sound every time I pedaled the bike.

    It seemed like the nobles who controlled this area were multiplying like plants.

    Of course, this wasn’t a bad thing at all.

    Aside from being sticky and unsightly, these all functioned similarly to a spider’s web.

    Only the spider’s web was more convenient for storing food.

    On the other hand, these moss played a role in preventing objects from rusting or rotting.

    “… I don’t know, but this is.”

    Since this was not properly addressed in the original work, I had no idea what its name was.

    I thought it was roughly the English word for moss.

    Well, there was no problem though. I had no intention of going in deep, and was only planning to grab a few bottles from nearby.

    In addition, I was able to get vodka at a decent supermarket.

    There was some more alcohol left, but there was no time to bring it.

    When I returned to the Seunghak campus with several bottles of vodka, Noh Chang-hoon grumbled to me, asking where I had been.

    After explaining the reason why I came up with it, I ended up getting scolded.

    The reason was simple. Not only do I have no idea what the hell I’m talking about, I even need alcohol.

    They asked me if I had traveled over 5 hours round trip just to bring back one drink.

    But when I asked him if he was glad that he returned safely and did a bit of reconnaissance, he only smiled.

    I thought it would be okay to move on this time.
