by fnovelpiaA few minutes before the current situation.
I confidently entered the hacker’s hideout with Youngmin and Sheila.
“Youngmin.”
“….”
Youngmin, whose name was called, did not respond but simply nodded.
Immediately after, Youngmin and Silas prepared for an unexpected situation. So that harm could be inflicted on Lina at any time.
“Do nothing. Don’t worry.”
“…?”
A voice was heard from inside the hideout, but no figure was seen.
“What, where are you?”
While we were checking the view here and there, Lina cautiously pointed down with her finger.
There wasn’t enough trust between us yet to trust her.
But before I knew it, I looked down and saw a small fairy flying.
“Hey, is this fairy… a hacker?”
She nodded quickly.
Meanwhile, the fairy was raising both hands while checking Lina’s condition with worried eyes.
He clearly showed with his whole body that he had no intention of resisting.
‘I think it would be perfect to have a bottle or something.’
Don’t let the fairy escape.
Fortunately, the three of us didn’t get sick or anything.
“Lina, I told you not to come!”
Meanwhile, Hacker and Lina started talking among themselves.
I understand that it is a rare combination and friendship in this city.
“So this shouldn’t have happened in the first place.”
“….”
The fairy’s eyes turned sharp after hearing my words.
“I just showed you the original system.”
“What?”
Youngmin and I were planning to quickly take Hacker and Rina out of the hideout.
However, even though the hacker was obediently held in my hands, he continued talking with an expression that said he had to say what he had to say.
“I didn’t hack it so that it touches people instead of mosquitoes. That laser had a function from the beginning to only attack people.”
“How do you know that?”
The fairy looked very frustrated at my question.
Yes, since he is a hacker, he must have checked it himself.
“Because I am one of the people who made this laser.”
“Oh, really?”
I think this situation is getting a bit interesting.
In Magusfall, fairies are usually not treated well.
Of course, it was because they were so small… they were generally treated more like pets or slaves than people.
However, this fairy was said to be involved in the development of lasers, so it was a somewhat unusual case.
“Did you really have to make things happen so that people got hurt?”
At Youngmin’s question, the fairy closed her eyes for a moment, as if she was feeling guilty.
“…It’s my fault. But there was no other way.”
He then explained how hard he had worked to spread the word that lasers were equipped with a function that only attacks people.
He reported it to various media outlets in the city and, as one of the developers, strongly expressed his opposition.
Of course it was of no use.
In the end, due to the high cost of the laser, Fairy was targeting the market right after its launch.
“Um.”
I didn’t really have any intention of saying anything moral about that.
Because I saw with my own eyes how people die from that laser.
In the first place, I was here as a solver, not a juror in the court. So it would be right to act as befits a problem solver.
“Perhaps. Just in case. How much can you give if we help two people?”
“…Really?”
Lina and the fairy’s eyes flashed at my sudden suggestion.
***
The fairy said that she would hand over all her possessions if she were spared.
Lina, who did this to save a friend, also offered a considerable amount of money.
“….”
I took Youngmin and Silas and headed to a corner for a while.
“What should I do?”
“Chris, it’s quite a bit of money, but we can’t decide on our own…”
“Then ask Sylvia right away.”
Scylla said as she lifted her human form.
I hurriedly checked the reactions of the fairy and Lina, but they didn’t seem to change their minds just because our power was reduced.
I answered Youngmin while sighing in relief.
“You can’t do it using a terminal because a record will remain. Someone has to bring it quickly…”
“Me and Sheila will stay.”
“Are you sure it’s okay?”
Youngmin and Silas nodded with serious eyes.
It’s not that I don’t trust them, but I’m starting to worry that something might go wrong.
“Hey, wait a minute!”
“Why? What’s going on?”
I quickly moved at the sudden fairy’s voice.
“Someone is approaching us right now. Your group…”
“No. Absolutely not.”
the fairy asked as she showed me the radar around the hideout.
Based on the reaction shown on the radar, there was no possibility that it was a member of our office.
“You probably don’t even know where this is in the first place.”
“Then wait a minute.”
The fairy reactivated the defense posture of her hiding place as if there was nothing to see.
The drones and ships placed in each passage began to come to life.
“Wait a minute. Anyway, I think it’s too much.”
It seemed impossible to hold out inside the hiding place. Additionally, in order to receive double compensation, we had to take out the fairy and Lina.
“Youngmin.”
I asked Youngmin and Silas to take them out of the hiding place.
“Don’t worry. Of all the people here, I have the strongest survival skills.”
He didn’t say anything about being the strongest.
It can fly using its two wings and can transform into a small bat.
In addition, as Youngmin saw firsthand, unlike other people, he has the advantage of being able to regenerate even fatal injuries.
If I was going to stay in the hideout and waste time, it was right for me to take on that role.
“…Okay.”
Youngmin seemed really reluctant to leave me alone.
There was no need to mention Silas, who was already clinging to my leg next to me.
“Chris Ugh!”
“Sila, listen to me.”
I urged Silas several times to follow Youngmin’s words.
-Tuung!
The sound of a drone attacking was heard in the distance.
What happened next was simple.
Everyone except me secretly escaped from the hiding place.
The fairies deactivated the drones and traps limited to their exit route.
Meanwhile, vampires who were attacking drones and traps head-on were gradually appearing.
It was fortunate that they were vampires and not Raco’s private unit.
“Stop!”
I shouted loudly at the people rushing inside the hideout.
No one would really stop just because they were told to stop…but it was a different story when it came to vampires.
My bloodline is blood lord, their bloodline is barely blood demon.
Due to the class differences imprinted in my blood, I was able to influence people to some extent even if they were not my blood relatives.
The vampires, who stopped moving for a moment, were noticeably reduced in number due to drone attacks and trap activation.
However, the sound of drones breaking apart comes from all directions.
There was no chance that all the vampires flying in the air would be annihilated by something like a drone.
Drones and ships were working together to block their approach.
But as the drone disappeared, the effect was halved, and before I knew it, a group of vampires approached me.
The one leading them from the front was a particularly large guy.
***
I could see what happened after that just by looking at my surroundings.
The corpses of countless vampires torn to shreds and the tribe leader who had become miserable in front of me.
“Hey, stop moving.”
I said as I pressed down on the Jipa leader who kept squirming under my feet.
At that moment, a good thought crossed my mind.
‘Yes, that’s the only way!’
Immediately after, I looked at the tribe leader and smiled.
“…?”
Then the tribe leader looked frightened and looked frightened.
“Hey, you can turn into other animals too.”
I guess the tribe leader was a blood demon at best… but he seemed to have a lot of experience in transformation abilities.
“Can you transform into something like a golden mole?”
“Yes?”
what? You don’t even know the golden mole? Even though he has no eyes, he is very cute! What do you not know?
If creatures like golden moles don’t exist in this world… there’s nothing we can do.
“Then just use the mole!”
“…Okay.”
The leader of the tribe silently turned into a large mole.
No, this isn’t a mole, isn’t it the size of a large dog?
Of course, that wasn’t important right now. First, we headed to the joining point with the group with the leader of the tribe, who had turned into a mole the size of a large dog.
Using its two wings, it could move in an instant.
“Ugh, isn’t it too heavy?!”
“…This is reduced as much as possible.”
Even with its grown wings, it was difficult to bear the weight of the branch leader.
Now I see it’s not a large dog, it’s just two pigs! Two pigs!
By the way, it seemed like he was well aware of his situation as he was obediently following what I said.
Since he has already failed his mission, there is no place for him to return to.
As for the men I brought with me… I took care of the guys who broke into the hacker’s hideout.
Meanwhile, the remnants of the Sixth Tribe, who had been fighting throughout Miller Town, began to withdraw.
The tribe leader had lost contact and the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable.
“Wait, this is a different story!”
The opponents of Lako, who believed in them and carried out this incident, were only embarrassed.
However, the sixth tribe was better.
The Twelfth Tribe suffered near annihilation, even while holding the vampire hunter’s deacon hostage.
Both tribes involved in this task achieved dismal results.
Meanwhile, the final order of this battlefield is to deal with the traitor. The pro- and neutral factions joined forces to launch the final offensive against the opponents.
***
While the opposing forces surrendered one after another.
Confluence point of the Blue Heart Office.
I later appeared there with a large mole.
“Chris!”
Youngmin and Silas on Youngmin’s shoulders shouted as if they were so happy to see me.
“Shhh.”
But David, who was next to me, put his index finger near his mouth and said.
“David, what about Sylvia?”
“It’s inside.”
I headed into the ruins David pointed to.
It was confirmed that Sylvia, Johnny, Astoby, Adem, as well as the fairy and Lina were all safe.
“Where is Datihi?”
“…dead.”
I couldn’t say anything to Adem’s answer.
It’s been so long since Badek retired that someone else has died.
As Adem tried to explain what happened, Silvia came up to me and hugged me.
“Chris, I’m glad you’re safe.”
“Silvia too!”
“Sister, but what about that mole?”
“Ah… it’s a bit of a long story.”
Meanwhile, Johnny asked, pointing to the mole standing on his feet behind me.
This guy, the leader of the tribe. He could probably speak human language even in that form, but I thought he was just trying to pretend to be a mole.
“I heard about this from Youngmin and Silas.”
“…What do you think, Sylvia?”
He fakes the hacker’s death and gets paid to steal her away.
“Scamming a company is a virtue for troubleshooters. But… if you want to do it, you have to be sure.”
It was a very natural thing.
As soon as Sylvia finished speaking, Adem came over and told me that he had placed various conditions on the fairy and Lina before I came.
The conditions were as follows.
Hand over all the high-power laser and related information that the hacker originally planned to leak.
Only the Fairy Hacker will be able to escape, and Mage Lina will remain here to provide our alibi.
And after confirming the amount they offered, they will let the hacker escape.
“So you two agreed?”
“Yes.”
At my question, the fairy hacker nodded on Lina’s shoulder. She added that she would obey obediently since there was no other way.
“Once outside, David will head to the Silver Side with the hacker.”
“Can we just stay and report our achievements to Maximilian?”
Sylvia nodded at what I said.
She praised me for approaching the hacker’s hideout and not sending any information to the terminal.
He said that if he did that, he could have been caught by Raco.
While the group was reorganizing, David quickly took Fairy Hacker with him and headed south.
The remaining personnel and Mage Lina headed to the still-disorganized command center of the pro-choice faction.
Even though Sylvia and Adem left the command center… except for the two, the other members performed their respective roles in their respective positions.
And above all, the three of me, Youngmin and Rina, broke into the hacker’s hideout and secured the hacker’s data.
Even though the hacker died due to a group of vampires that suddenly invaded… I was planning to report the same story.
We couldn’t be sure whether Maximilian would actually believe our story.
Considering that the vampires said they had come to fetch someone, I could have suspected their relationship with me.
Still, it was clear that we had fulfilled Raco’s request.
In addition, as a result of an engagement that was not in the original scope, one of the office’s resolvers was killed.
“Phew….”
“Chris, leave this to me and Adem.”
“What if he asks me a question?”
“At that time, I will ask as usual.”
“Okay.”
If you’re the dream city’s problem solver! This was something that had to be done.
