    41. Hellgate

    Huung – !

     

     

     

    The zombie horde that the giant zombie threw with a handful crossed the sky at a rapid speed.

    As the giant zombie, reaching a height of 200 meters, threw them, the range was very long, enough to cross the Suez Canal and neutralize the 50-meter-high Suez Wall.

     

     

     

    “Th-they’re coming over!!!”

     

     

    The soldiers watching the situation from the ramparts were horrified and began firing, raising their guns high.

    Even though no specific orders were given, it felt like they had to.

     

     

    However, even if the things falling in an arc were hit by bullets, their trajectory would not be altered. Soon, hundreds of zombies fell into the military camp inside the wall.

    Of course, the zombies that fell like that stopped functioning as soon as they touched the ground. But the virus they carried could be transmitted through the air, making it powerful enough.

     

     

     

    “Clean them up immediately!!”

    “Artillery!!”

    “Get rid of those things right now!!”

     

     

    The military camp instantly became a scene of carnage.

    Inside the wall that had been hit by the zombie toss, soldiers and various weapons were sent up onto the wall, while the crushed zombies were immediately incinerated and the surrounding area disinfected.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    – Tukung!

     

     

     

     

     

    Hundreds of self-propelled guns in the rear spewed fire.

    And from that point on, all kinds of cannons around the military camp began shelling, and soldiers’ firing and tank shelling began from the ramparts as well.

     

    The area where the zombie horde and the giant zombies were turned into a sea of fire in an instant.

    To make matters worse, a bomber squadron that had taken off dropped white phosphorus bombs, creating the hell of the afterlife.

    If they were humans instead of zombies, it would have been enough to lose their will to fight.

     

     

    But zombies don’t know fear.

    Especially if it’s a giant zombie made up of tens of thousands of zombies.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    – Gyaaaaaa-!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The giant zombie, screaming in the sea of fire, advanced like a monster in a movie.

    It was running without showing any pain, even though its whole body was on fire.

     

     

    It wasn’t just one.

    A total of four giant zombies were running towards the wall.

     

    Because they were a whopping 200 meters tall, they could easily cross the Suez Canal, as well as the 50-meter-high wall.

    If that happened, it would be almost impossible for Egypt, which had exhausted its national power building the wall, to resist.

     

    That’s why they resisted desperately.

     

     

    Bombers dropped bombs, fighter jets fired missiles, and various self-propelled guns, tanks, anti-tank missiles, and even cruise missiles borrowed from the United States were fired, but the giant zombies ran without a scratch, as if none of that mattered.

     

     

     

    “Shit…what the hell…what is it!!!”

     

     

     

    Soldiers gripped by fear.

    They were just zombies that started in a D-class dungeon, but are they evolving? Now even tank shelling and missiles don’t work.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    And finally,

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Huung – !

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The giant zombie running at the very front jumped over the wall.

     

     

     

     

    “Ugh, uaaaaaack!!!!”

     

     

     

    As a result, the soldiers on the wall screamed and mutated.

     

     

    “Crazy!”

     

    They weren’t even touched, they were just nearby for about 0.1 seconds, but they were infected and became zombies.

    What the hell is this ridiculous infectivity?

    And what is that defense?

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Inside the wall where despair began to spread, the remaining three giant zombies landed, two of them pushed the wall outwards and knocked it down, and the remaining one joined the first one and devastated the military camp.

     

     

    In less than a few minutes, the Egyptian military camp became a zombie den, and the Suez Canal, which had contributed greatly to blocking the zombies, was neutralized by the giant zombies building a bridge with the debris of the collapsed wall.

     

     

     

     

     

    After that, it was a one-sided march.

    A zombie horde of at least several million rushed towards Egypt, and despite the bombing of hundreds of bombers and countless missile barrages, Egypt’s largest population center was swept away in just one hour.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    +++

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    “Why the hell can’t we do it!!”

    “…Didn’t I tell you before?”

    “So what! I don’t find it convincing!”

     

     

    The news broadcasted special reports every day.

     

     

    The appearance of giant zombies that so easily neutralized the walls. And the collapse of isolation due to their simultaneous advance.

     

    The walls built to contain the zombies in the Middle East have all collapsed, and they are spreading in all directions.

    The danger is spreading not only to Asia, including Egypt, but also to Europe, led by Turkey, and Asia, starting with Iran and Pakistan.

     

     

    Moreover, now that it has spread this far, it is impossible to build walls. The situation has reached a point where the only way to end it is to wipe out all the zombies.

     

     

    In this terrible situation, international organizations continued to request help from the Federal Empire of Bojinia and the Galactic Empire, but with Yu-Eun gone, the two empires were unable to move due to Sonia’s refusal, who is the highest decision-maker.

     

     

    Of course, even though Yu-Eun is in the Murim, they can contact him and ask for his opinion, but Yu-Eun generally leaves matters of politics to Sonia, so if Sonia says she won’t intervene, he is likely to just follow her lead. And that’s exactly what happened.

     

     

     

    “Humanity needs to get burned badly once.”

    “Is that something you should be saying right now?!”

     

    Yuna steadily visited Sonia and protested.

     

     

    “Nearly a billion people have already been sacrificed!”

    “Yes. A billion people have already died. But despite that, they still haven’t realized it.”

     

    Yuna felt a wall.

    It’s impossible to communicate.

     

    Even if they have become an evil force, how can they just stand by and watch hundreds of millions of people die?

     

     

    “Look at what’s happening now. Humanity doesn’t have the power to overcome disasters on its own. The way for them to live is to break their arrogant noses and come under us. But no one does that. They don’t understand the situation and don’t know their place. What do you think will happen when they, who can’t even overcome a mere global disaster, encounter a cosmic disaster? Won’t they ask for help again, making pitiful noises?”

     

     

    I know what she means.

    When humanity is pouring all its efforts but still can’t overcome the disaster and is in despair, the Galactic Empire easily handles it, completely breaking their will to resist, and naturally making them follow and worship Yu-Eun in this era where democracy and individual rights are widely spread. That’s the intention.

     

     

    But no matter what, it’s too much.

    Everyone around the world now knows that the Galactic Empire is incomparably strong, so why do we have to go this far!

     

     

     

     

     

     

    “They have to say ‘Please save us,’ not ‘Help us,’ Yuna. Only then will we have a reason to intervene.”

    “…”

     

     

    Yuna decided not to use words anymore.

    There’s no point anyway, persuasion is impossible, and there’s no time for that anymore.

     

     

    “Okay. Then. I’ll intervene on my own.”

     

    She is also a queen with 100 million Bojinians under her command.

    If she sets her mind to it, she can take military action at any time.

     

     

    However, if she goes through Sonia now that Yu-Eun is not here, she can also utilize the resources and manpower of the Galactic Empire, and then she can really solve this situation in an instant, so she kept coming and trying to persuade her like this.

     

     

    Sonia stared at her silently.

    When she’s with Yu-Eun, her expression is endlessly relaxed, but originally, her face is as fierce as her beauty, overwhelming those who see it.

    But Yuna is also her daughter. She’s still lacking, but she has the genes.

    Sonia finally sighed at the gaze that didn’t give an inch and collided head-on.

     

     

    “…We’re going to intervene soon anyway. Can’t you wait even that little bit?”

    “It’s not about a little bit, people keep dying in the meantime!”

    “Why are you so concerned about the deaths of those who have nothing to do with us?”

    “No…”

    “Soon they will start using nukes. They’ll be detonating them like crazy for a while. But that alone won’t be enough. Only then will they realize painfully that humanity’s survival is not possible without us…without him on Earth.”

    “…That’s already enough. How many more have to die for you to be satisfied?”

    “I told you, it’s soon. It’s the limit anyway. They’re not complete idiots either.”

     

     

    Yuna shook her head silently and stepped back.

    She seemed to be out of her mind.

     

     

    “Mom is crazy.”

    “Think what you want.”

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    +++

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The nukes fell.

    It was no longer the time to worry about radiation.

     

     

    The powerful Federal Empire of Bojinia and the Galactic Empire are silent, and there is nothing that can be done in this situation where the zombies keep coming.

    Tens of thousands of people are losing their lives every time they delay, so they have to fire nukes and whatever else they have.

     

     

    In the end, tacit approval for nuclear attacks was established, limited to areas with zombie hordes, and the powerful countries with nuclear weapons mercilessly poured missiles.

     

     

    Even the giant zombies that withstood tank shelling and ignored countless bombings couldn’t withstand the nukes, and they evaporated with intense light. As hundreds of nukes began to explode, the zombie rally slowed down a bit.

    But that only delayed the time. A fundamental solution is still a distant story.

     

    Criticism of the Galactic Empire was rampant in public opinion.

    Demonstrations broke out, saying why they weren’t moving even though they had the power, and the situation became so serious that even a minister of a single country directly joined in the criticism.

     

     

     

     

     

    Of course, they had no choice but to bow down behind the scenes.
