First, the blood vessels extend like a net, and flesh fills the area around them.

The red organization quickly filled the warehouse.

What’s even more terrifying than that is that there are eyeballs growing on it.

Eyeballs of different sizes appear here and there, blinking to different beats.

Flash.

Flash.

Flash.

It felt like I was in the stomach of a huge creature.

Overwhelming fear. In order to escape from it, you must somehow think differently.

I desperately talked nonsense with Jeong Hae-won.

“This is plagiarism.”

“That’s it. What happens around Haechuri.”

“Do you know that school lunch is a star?”

“Because it’s a folk game.”

Again.

Light came into the eyes that were out of focus.

As the eyeballs move, the surrounding flesh covering the walls of the warehouse shakes.

Again.

Eyes roll and all turn in this direction.

Pupils of different sizes constrict.

Blink, blink, blink. Blink. Blink.. Blink. Blink..

Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink.

Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink.

Blink, blink, blink.. blink.. blink.. blink. blink.

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink.

Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink.. Blink.

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink.

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink…

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink.

Blink. Blink. Blink. Blink..

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, blink.

“Aaaah!!!”

“Huhhh… … .”

Jeong Hae-won fell to the floor, screaming and crawling backwards.

A voice like a scared girl comes out of my mouth. No. Is that true now?

No matter how strong your will is, you will not be able to come to your senses properly in this environment.

Fear came like a wave and swept away all my thoughts.

And, the bond of reason that I had barely maintained was suddenly broken.

I’ve never seen anything this horrible in my life.

Excited. Excited.

Now wherever I look, my blood is pulsing.

Everything from the walls to the floor. The thin tissue shakes and accepts new blood.

“No. This… … . I’ve seen it before.”

I could barely breathe.

“Don’t you remember? When the disaster broadcast came out. Even then, there was… … . It was stuck.”

“Hmm. Ugh… … .”

“You have to come to your senses.”

I somehow solved it back then, so now I just need to come to my senses.

I passed the sniffling Jeong Hae-won and this time found Yoon Da-ju.

Since when did it start?

Daju was nowhere to be seen.

“Daju. Daju Yoon! Where are you!”

“I’m here!”

It was dark so it was hard to see, but Daju Yoon was nearby.

“I’ll turn on the flashlight first.”

Even though all the lights had gone out earlier, the inside of the warehouse was strangely dark.

I turned on my phone and pressed the flashlight button.

Da-ju Yoon’s appearance is immediately revealed.

Daju looks back and speaks while holding the hammer tightly.

“Get out of here quickly.”

“No. I have to kill you here.”

Seeing everyone safe, my fear eased a little.

I am slowly getting used to the darkness around me. Even in places where light does not reach, a rough outline can be seen.

I calmly put together a plan.

“If you keep that thing going, it will cover the entire apartment. You have to get rid of it before then.”

“Can’t I just run away?”

“Yes.”

Above all, you should not give up on the 7th floor.

Because it’s almost the only safe place in this apartment.

“Okay.”

Daju nods his head trustingly.

He’s a little taller than me, but I can’t be that reassuring in a situation like this.

“Oppa! Bow down!”

Huh-

Daju screams and swings the hammer.

Pow!

The tentacles flying in from behind literally explode.

Blood and flesh splattered over my head.

“Phew… … . Are you okay, brother?”

“Yes. Thank you.”

I brushed off the terrible things that were on my body.

And the very inside of the warehouse. He pointed to the place where the vibration was the greatest.

“That’s the heart. We have to break that thing.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. I looked at it correctly earlier.”

This is information based on the insight of a librarian.

In the deepest part of the warehouse, in the place where the charnel house was, there was his huge heart.

“Uuuu… … .”

Jeong Hae-won makes a strange noise and wipes his face.

I went crazy because of the constant fear.

“I don’t think he’ll ever come to his senses.”

Daju sighs and says.

“Then does it have to be done by you and your brother?”

“Yes. I think it should be like that.”

Even in this situation, Daju clings close to me and gently touches my shoulder.

“What are you doing you crazy bitch.”

“This might be the last time.”

“Ha… … . Finish it quickly.”

Is it right for women to do this?

Still, if you think about what Daju went through in the past, it’s not that hard to understand.

This is probably how you find stability.

“Hahahahaha!!! We all die here!!!”

Jeong Hae-won laughs like crazy, probably because his second year of middle school illness has relapsed after three years.

“They all die and become his food!”

Pugh-

Jeong Hae-won fell to the floor.

Daju wiped the blade of his hand and raised his head again.

“Let’s go, oppa.”

“Wait a minute. Take care of this.”

I bent down and picked up the container on the floor.

It was gasoline that had been taking up space for a long time.

I heard that I’ve been regretting it since I brought it just in case. I never thought I would use this at a time like this.

“What is it? Is there a fire?”

Even as he spoke, Daju skillfully swung his hammer and struck down the flying tentacle.

“Yes.”

“How will you use it?”

“It’s the last resort. I’ll sprinkle this on the move in advance, and throw fire at the end from a safe place.”

All the items stored in the warehouse will be burned.

Putting out the fire later is problematic, and you may not be able to start it in a safe place… … .

Still, he has to be killed here.

“Then. If possible, it would be better if we broke our hearts together. Don’t use fire.”

“That’s right.”

The problem is that the possibility of that happening is slim.

The distance to the heart is longer than you think. You have to run from end to end of the warehouse, avoiding the flying tentacles.

Besides, I’m not sure if I can break it by hitting it with a hammer.

I was just calculating the distance.

“Hwaaa!”

Jeong Hae-won, who had just come to his senses, was screaming behind him.

Tentacles growing from the floor began to wrap around Jeong Hae-won.

“No, no!”

“Haewon!”

Slurp-

Without even having time to do anything, Jeong Hae-won disappeared under the floor in an instant.

As if it had been eaten by a snake, the shape of the swallowed body is fully visible beneath the thin tissue.

“Kwaaak! Huh. Ahhh!”

Jeong Hae-won is screaming and struggling.

But its skin does not tear easily.

I guess it was surprisingly tough. Or is it because Jeong Hae-won is embarrassed?

The flesh covering the floor is stretched to the point where all the veins are visible, but it never tears.

“Shall I hit you with a hammer?”

“No. I have a knife.”

I took a knife out of my pocket and cut into the flesh.

A lot of extra flesh.

I plunged the blade into it.

“Stay still!”

Then, he carefully cut the empty space under the flesh so that the blade would not touch Jeong Hae-won, who was trapped inside.

wickedness-

It feels like cutting tough meat in your hands.

An elastic membrane with a cross-section of approximately 3 cm. Jeong Hae-won’s head popped out through the crack.

“Puha!”

“Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh… … .”

Jung Hae-won seemed to be on the verge of suffocation and was out of breath as soon as he came out.

Daju Yoon approached him and helped him up.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know it would be like this.”

“Yes? What is it?”

“I’m glad I didn’t know. no. Nothing.”

Jeong Hae-won just blankly blinked, as if he really didn’t know anything.

I patted the guy on the back.

“Anyway, you need to come to your senses quickly. Otherwise we will all die.”

“I just came to my senses. I was shocked.”

“Really? Then hold this for a moment.”

“What is this?”

“Gasoline.”

“Ah… … . To light a fire… … . But then wouldn’t we also be swept away?”

“So, it is the last resort. It’s frustrating.”

Leaving behind Jeong Hae-won, who was only talking in frustration, I shined the flashlight inside the warehouse.

A strangely dark warehouse. Two human figures stand in the middle of it.

“Sister. You can’t stay here. I’ll try my best, so let’s get out of here. Huh?”

“I don’t like it.”

“Please come to your senses!!!”

“I don’t like it… … . I’ll be here… … . Hayul will be next to you… … .”

Seok Hyun-min tries to get out of here somehow, and Heo Yoon doesn’t budge.

“Let’s go.”

I spoke in a heavy voice and took steps.

It’s a distance that can only be reached if you sprint, but the road isn’t that smooth.

“Ugh.”

Jeong Hae-won, who made a mistake and stepped on an eyeball on the floor, frowns.

The floor is covered in flesh and uneven, and you never know when you might be dragged down like before.

And then, the guy started attacking actively.

The chunks of meat that moved slowly came together to create the shape of a huge arm.

Daju held the hammer tightly.

“Is it preventing me from reaching the heart?”

“Yes. Maybe.”

With so much snow, it would be impossible not to know the situation.

“Be careful.”

I quickly pulled Jeong Hae-won to me.

Blood foam was bubbling under the guy’s feet.

“Look at the floor carefully.”

“… … Yes.”

As we went deeper and deeper, more tentacles emerged from the bottom.

It is not a tentacle with a smooth surface like you see in movies.

The tightly packed muscles bulged out, and the blood vessels surrounding the tentacles pulsated to the beat.

A tentacle that has accumulated so much power that its red tissue turns white.

Is it possible for us to get through something like that?

Jung Hae-won spilled some gasoline on the floor.

“Can you do it like this, sister?”

“You have to spray it heavily for it to catch fire. You idiot.”

I took the container and poured oil on the tentacles.

Gasoline sprays out in a cool, refreshing way.

“I’ll just do it, so you and Daju watch your surroundings carefully. Let’s keep passing by.”

“Yes.”

“Daju. Can you get through it?”

I looked to the side, but Daju was no longer there.

Instead, a cheerful sound came from ahead.

Daju killed one tentacle in an instant. It was as simple as cutting the grass on the side of the road.

Pow!

Daju swings the hammer again with all his might.

The flesh of the exploded tentacle falls down in a patter.

“Run quickly! Before it grows again!”

… … I guess I underestimated Da-ju Yoon.
