“I really think I should do it.”

Even though I said that, there was no way I could calm down.

It would have been better if they had stopped me to protect these people.

But these insects did not intend to protect these people in the first place.

Survivors are consumables that can be found somewhere anyway.

So, to avoid getting in trouble, they killed them all and only took the larvae and pupae.

I could tell just by looking at him that he had been dead for a long time.

“… Really.”

My teeth kept grinding.

Even though I knew that what I needed to do right now was rest, I didn’t let go.

In the end, I couldn’t leave these bodies behind.

No, I was planning to handle it properly somehow.

These people aren’t zombies, they’re just victims.

So, instead of taking out the lighter, I decided to take the trouble.

How much time has passed?

I found a nearby exit and got out.

Then I found a good park to bury the corpses in, and ripped off one of the beetle’s front legs.

They used it to dig several holes and bury the bodies.

It wasn’t a particularly sunny place, but it didn’t matter.

Because I just had to make it sunny and that was enough.

The tree that was providing shade broke after a few punches.

Since I needed a tree, I tied the branches and grass together to make a cross.

After finishing the burial, I tried my best to calm down.

Reasonably.

Reasonably.

After thinking that, I had to move.

Otherwise, when it’s all over, you’ll end up with a bunch of other problems.

I thought so and put on the headset around my neck properly.

There was no sound.

No, it doesn’t mean I can’t hear it at all. Still, it was better than the sound of insects.

“I thought I got used to seeing corpses… Did it only apply to zombie corpses?”

I felt sick.

It wasn’t enough to make me vomit. Here’s what I’ve seen so far.

But I felt quite disgusted and nauseated.

When I thought about it, I realized that I had never seen a person die.

So far, I’ve only seen zombie corpses, but I’ve never seen the corpses of healthy people.

So I could have taken it even worse.

To put it in a good way, it would be humanity, but to put it in a bad way, it would be softness.

Really, I didn’t know what to do.

If I could, I wanted to ask someone.

What would you do? please answer me That’s what he would have said.

But since I was the only one here right now, a wry smile naturally formed.

What would Noh Chang-hoon have done?

No, he wouldn’t have been any different.

I’m sure I’ll act like I’m fine, but I’ll be sick inside.

If it’s Kang Si-woo, probably.

I’ll get angry, but I’ll put that behind me.

That’s not what’s important, there’s something more important.

That is that, this is this.

“Yeah, that’s it. This is it.”

I muttered that and forced my wobbly body to move.

It wasn’t a definite solution, but it was still somewhat of a comfort.

So what I would do from now on was clear.

So I took a deep breath, controlled my strength, and swung my fist.

“Quaang,” the telephone pole that was hit by my fist was greatly bent.

Perhaps because the emotions were not sorted out, it seemed like it was engraved on a large scale for a mark.

But hey, it doesn’t matter. If you want to find out, it might be better this way.

There was only one reason why I had a hard time finding my way.

Because everything is green, I can’t tell which spot I’m walking to.

Unless it was a particularly tall building, it was difficult to memorize the surrounding terrain.

In that case, all you had to do was put a sign on it so that anyone could see it.

If you don’t wander around in the same place, you’ll be able to escape somehow.

“I guess I just kept going straight.”

I recalled my memory for a moment and then walked forward.

Fortunately, finding the way wasn’t that difficult.

I intentionally made a big sign around me as if I was venting my anger, but it was because I could see the traces.

Traces of insects moving on a large scale.

This made me confident that I was going to the right place.

I couldn’t find out the detailed direction, but that didn’t really matter.

Before long, the building I first entered was visible in the distance.

Fortunately, I was able to recognize that building right away.

This was the only place around that resembled a wasp nest.

“Now we’re at the starting point.”

I grumbled and adjusted my headset.

Maybe it’s because the wasps came looking for me here… It looked like there was a building I jumped from near here.

Soon enough, I was able to find the building I jumped from.

And when I found the building, it wasn’t that difficult to find the base.

The temperature of the air itself was different, and the humidity was also different.

On the other hand, the moss was dry, so I could at least tell which region I was from.

Of course, I didn’t find my way here right away either.

Still, after a while, I was able to rest at the base.

It was strange to even say I was resting.

There’s no way I can rest. How can I rest after seeing that scene?

I felt so dirty that I almost forced myself to sit down.

In my heart, I wanted to run away right away.

I want to destroy all those damn insects.

And I wanted to set it on fire so that I could never live again.

Margrave? What does it matter?

I even took down the count by myself.

In this situation, where I had overcome countless dangers of death, it didn’t seem like I could even do Dongguijin.

“Calm down, let’s do it… ”

But I couldn’t help it. Because there is a procedure for everything.

We had to take the minimum measures and move.

It might have been different in the past, but now there are a lot of people who rely on me.

Right now, Noh Chang-Hoon is relying on me a lot.

Although this relationship started because of a lie, Kang Si-woo also relies on me very much.

If I were suddenly cut off from the news, it was clear that the community would fall apart.

Now, the survivors’ power was strangely dependent on Kang Si-woo and Noh Chang-hoon.

So I shouldn’t have acted without any news.

“Was the radio here?”

I rummaged through Ochu’s storage space and took out the walkie-talkie from inside.

And when Noh Chang-hoon looked at the handwritten paper, he smiled.

He must have been wearing a headset, but it seemed like he could hear Noh Chang-hoon’s voice.

Thinking that I wouldn’t hear his voice for a while, I felt a little strange.

But the hesitation did not last long.

It was clear that the more time it took, the more disadvantageous it would become.

Coincidentally, while I was on my way here, I saw a building where I could radio.

So I immediately picked up the radio and headed to the building.

So I broke down the emergency staircase door, went up to the rooftop, and collapsed on the floor.

“… This bastard.”

I chuckled as I read the contents of the note carefully.

Even if you ignore people, it’s oily resin. I didn’t know it at the time, but now I know it.

Of course, I wrote down all the things I probably knew, so it was ridiculous.

I also wondered how old they were looking at me.

“Still, whatever. It’s not bad.”

I muttered that and changed the channel.

And when I pressed the button on the radio, a clicking sound was heard.

– Who are you… ?!

A young boy’s voice was heard over the radio.

He must have been very nervous, and I could hear him breathing heavily.

So I was wondering if it was connected properly.

Even so, there’s no way you’d let a young child be the radio operator.

– W, here… therefore… belong! Yes, please indicate your affiliation!

– My name is Private Park Sang-gil, and I am in charge of the radio.

“Me, Iye… Wait a minute.”

Even though I gave her name as Yeji Lee, I didn’t think she would know.

When I saw him get angry, I doubted whether he was even an adult in the first place.

So I thought for a moment, sighed, and called again.

“Do you know whether Noh Chang-hoon is a captain or a colonel? That person said to contact me here if anything happens.”

– ah! Major Noh Chang-hoon!

“Ugh.”

A loud noise continued to be heard over the radio.

Even though I wasn’t looking at the situation, I thought it was cute that I could somehow understand it.

Wait a minute, now that I think about it, didn’t you say this guy is Major Noh Chang-hoon?

“Ho, are you together? Is Noh Chang-hoon here too?”

I spoke urgently into the radio.

I don’t know why that bastard was here, but I thought I would feel more at ease if he were here.

To be honest, I wanted to hear Noh Chang-hoon’s voice.

I didn’t even want Kang Si-woo. Since I also depend on Noh Chang-hoon, I just want to hear it.

And not long after, the voice I was waiting for came from the radio.

– why. what’s the matter.

“… why are you here Where are you? ”

– Haeundae outskirts guard post. It’s not the main base.

“No, just… I didn’t expect to hear your voice.”

– Did you want to hear it? under. Maybe you should have recorded it at least.

“… That’s not what I meant.”

– Anyway, you have something to report, right? It seems safe. I saw you chatting.

“Ah, ah. if… ”

Can we chat some more?

… I couldn’t say that.

Of course there’s no way you can do it.

It was clear that Noh Chang-hoon, who was supposed to be working at Seunghak Campus, had come all the way here because of work.

But I can’t waste my time and electricity for no reason.

So, after hesitating for a moment, I just started talking about what I had seen while scouting.
