We went up to the first basement floor to search.
As soon as he comes up, Yoon Cheol-woo smiles and asks.
“Mr. Park Dae-bu. Do you have a license?”
“… yes. Although it is a closet.”
“Then take the back seat here.”
It was a car. It’s also an SUV.
I’m not asking you to drive a car.
In fact, it might be a better decision than leaving the steering wheel to a clumsy person.
As I got into the car, I could see that the other search party members were a little nervous.
From now on, I have to delve into those monsters.
The search team member sitting in the driver’s seat gives a brief briefing.
“Our goal is a large supermarket 1 block away. It’s quite large and probably has a lot of food. That size would be enough to sustain everyone here for a month.”
“People here… Are you referring to us? Or does it also include other people below?”
The search team member smiles faintly at my question.
“Hehe… . You’re quick-witted. That depends on the situation. Isn’t it? Although they succeeded in searching the supermarket, they were unable to return due to unfavorable circumstances. … Isn’t this scenario quite possible? Of course, it has to be in good condition.”
Right.
These people plan to sit in that supermarket if they have the chance. Leave everyone here.
“Of course, I will come back here again soon. That’s right. Because there are things here that aren’t found in the supermarket. A woman or something. A female soldier or something.”
“kekekeke… … .”
The search party members in the car laugh along.
“Of course, in preparation for such an unfortunate incident, we packed as many guns and ammunition as possible. To the extent that our female soldiers have ‘insufficient’ weapons.”
“Hoo.”
I think I know what people here are planning.
They probably plan to monopolize food and supplies and subdue people.
That’s what I was trying to do.
“But if we continue like this, won’t it be dangerous because of monsters?”
“Of course it is. That’s why only courageous people like Mr. Godfather come there.”
The search team member in the driver’s seat smiled meaningfully at my question.
“I’m just telling you now, but there are talented people among us.”
“Able person?”
When I rolled down the window, I saw a man wearing a hat outside applying something to the car.
“… What is that?”
“Paint. Bulletproof paint.”
“Bulletproof paint… ?”
“If you paint, you can prevent a couple of monster attacks to some extent. We completed the test with the sacrifice of about 3 people.”
If it can even block monster attacks, it is almost an upward compatibility with Doayun’s abilities.
The downside is that you have to apply paint.
Come to think of it, I heard earlier that three people died during the search.
Perhaps they sacrificed people who opposed their plan in the name of testing.
I had my doubts, but right now it was just my heart.
Maybe they even bothered to take me, leaving the other search party members alone. Maybe it’s because we need a scapegoat when times get tough.
“It’s a good thing you came here.”
“Right?”
“In that sense, I actually have the ability.”
“Yes?”
The eyes of the search team member in the driver’s seat widen.
Of course, I had no intention of demonstrating my cloning ability.
“My abilities are not that great. This is it.”
[The ability to stick to walls has been activated.]
I use my ability and pull the phone up with my palm pressed against it.
The phone follows my hand as if it were stuck to a magnet.
“This, this… What is it?”
“It seems to have the ability to increase the friction of the palm. It’s not a big deal, but it’s probably good for carrying things.”
“Ah~ When carrying things? no way. What is it?”
“What… I guess it could be useful.”
The search party members who were interested are devastated. It may seem like a poor ability.
They don’t seem to be a threat to themselves, so they just ignore them.
“It may not be of much help, but I will take care of carrying the items.”
“Ah… yes yes. sure. It would be nice if it helped even that way.”
“It might be useful in that regard. Then, I’ll leave it to you to carry the luggage. I thought there was already a shortage of workers.”
“Yes. Please leave it to me.”
I also got a reason to hold things in my hands.
“Then, let’s go!”
Immediately exit the underground parking lot. It was the first time I had seen sunlight in a long time, but most of the cars were painted so it was hard to see outside.
Grrr!
A monster’s cry was heard from beyond the building. Everyone leans in close, perhaps because they are traumatized.
But despite this, the car continued to move without stopping.
Shake!
The car shakes as if I stepped on something.
“Probably a corpse.”
The driver drove the car calmly. It seemed like he had already hit it a few times.
“Please. please please… … .”
A voice was heard from behind, begging for the monster not to notice.
No matter how much paint is applied, no one wants to come face to face with a monster. Same goes for me.
Fortunately, the car enters the supermarket without incident.
There was no one inside.
“… … It looks like a monster fell here.”
A hole in the ceiling. Debris shattered in all directions. Corpses and blood stains everywhere.
I could immediately understand why there was no one in the supermarket, which is considered the number one place to evacuate in the event of a disaster.
The top is open, and there are corpses everywhere. This is not a place for people to stay.
“We should just pack our things and go.”
“That’s right. From now on, let’s spread out and gather our things!”
“Yes!”
The search party disperses all at once. They pull abandoned carts two at a time. I also dragged a cart and went down to the supermarket.
From now on, it’s copy hard work time.
***
“Did you get everything?”
“Yes!”
It took quite some time. Of course, I couldn’t rush through the entire supermarket. I also excluded items that I don’t need right now.
I give up on things like frozen food or things that need to be cooked, as they are not useful in this situation.
If you don’t need daily necessities, pass.
Surprisingly, there was a small pharmacy inside, so I took the medicine there. I copied it as soon as possible.
I decided to load the items brought by the search party into the car. Of course, in the meantime, I didn’t forget to make copies.
The search party members who left their work to me and went to smoke cigarettes talk to each other.
“How was the fresh food aspect?”
“I’m ruined. It’s too late. Fresh food, vegetables, meat, fish… . They are all spoiled and unusable.”
“The rest of the food is also full of things that don’t have a short expiration date. These are things that need to be refrigerated… … . Even after a week, I won’t be able to eat anything except canned food.”
“Umm… … . Things like ramen or snacks… … .”
“It’s better that way, but the calories are too low compared to the volume. If you take it, let’s take it next time.”
“I can’t help it. Let’s just take this for now. It seems dangerous to stay here any longer.”
I said ‘just this’, but this was also quite a lot. There was almost no room left in the SUV.
I barely got out of bed. I couldn’t close the car door properly so I had to hold it with my hand.
“I will go slowly… … . Please don’t meet monsters… !”
… If you say that, you will meet.
Grrr!!
Kwaang—!
The car explodes, and all the food inside the car spills out.
“Wow!!”
“Food! Bring food!”
“Crazy, how can I take care of it! Just step on it!”
“No!”
Chaos ensued and a huge monster was seen outside the window.
Isn’t this the first time we’ve met each other properly?
The monster opened its mouth in five directions and swung its tentacles at us.
Fuck. It looks dirty for once.
thud!!
“I got hit by a car!”
“It’s okay! There’s paint!”
The performance of the paint was certain, so although the ceiling was dented, it did not break.
The driver moved a little faster. Every time, the food in the car spills out onto the floor.
Patter!
Coo!
“Ah… ! My canned food!”
“Give up what you have to give up! I can’t go pick it up!”
A tentacle monster steps on a can that has fallen on the floor.
There is a tremendous stench and a strange liquid flowing out.
Isn’t it because of that bastard that the food spoiled quickly?
The tentacles are also covered in all kinds of mucus, giving off a foul smell.
Wow~!!
“Ugh… !!”
“Please, please let’s go alive. Please!”
“Hold on tight!”
The car barely makes it through the chaos and enters the underground parking lot.
Chwii Iik… … .
The tentacle monster hesitated at the entrance to the underground parking lot and did not enter.
“Okay, is it over?”
“Whew… … .”
“Thing! Check the items!”
The men come to their senses again and check the items.
All kinds of canned food and various foods packed in boxes or bags.
Some of it was gone, but most of it was fine.
“Thank goodness. There’s a lot left!”
“This should be enough for a week.”
“Whew… … . I lived.”
While everyone was barely able to come to their senses, I also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was successful.
[1+1 ability has been activated.]
They succeeded in copying all the remaining items that the men thought they had kept.
As a bonus, I threw away the original copy, pretending that it had been stolen by a monster.
“Keuuu… … .”
“Hey! Hey!”
“got hit. The tentacles pierced my stomach!”
The man wearing the hat that had been covered in paint earlier vomits blood and falls limp.
“Uh… ?”
“The paint… .”
At the same time, the paint on the car disappears as if it had never been painted.
If you do this, other people will understand without having to explain it.
Naturally, objects made with abilities disappear when the ability person disappears.
And the only food left here was the replica I made.
If I die, all the food here will disappear.
Now, all conditions are met.
