Chapter Index

    The situation turned out to be much more dire than expected.

    I couldn’t get the cucumbers out because of this damn brown mass.

    To take it out, you probably have to remove the Ochu’s wheels and just carry the body… That’s a bit much.

    Well, now that things have come to this, there is a need to make a decision quickly.

    one. Make this a base and find a way to clear this mass from the surrounding cities.

    two. Just take what you need and go back the way you came.

    three. Just pack what you need and head to Seoul… but honestly, it’s as if I’ve found the answer.

    Anyway, going to Seoul is closer than returning to Busan.

    Above all, most of the luggage on the Ochu was carried by Noh Chang-hoon just in case, right?

    Of course, the number of items needed is much less than that.

    It’s just a backpack, well… how can I carry it and move it around?

    So, without hesitation, I packed my bags and headed out in the rain.

    I don’t know what will happen if I delay any longer.

    Above all, this brown lump.

    Under the circumstances, it seems that it usually stays still like dirt, but when it rains, it becomes sticky.

    And when it dries, it hardens and you might not be able to use it at all.

    A means of breaking something solid or of some kind.

    So, it would be nice if it could be treated with something like fire or oil… but I’m not sure.

    Even if that wasn’t the case, I didn’t think it would be a good idea to delay.

    It’s been a long time since I felt this way.

    Even though it’s quite chilly due to the rain, your body feels warmer than you thought?

    What does that mean? It’s clear that there are some strong variants around.

    Of course I didn’t want to meet them on this damn road.

    So I just covered Ochu with a tarp and then left the road.

    I was moving around like that… but it felt a little weirder than I thought.

    Perhaps because they were using items received from the military base, they looked just like soldiers.

    I was wearing a military-colored backpack and a poncho raincoat.

    If anyone sees me, they’ll probably think I’m a female soldier.

    But isn’t it a bit ironic?

    I still haven’t been to training camp.

    Originally, I was a bit cocky and tried to make myself mentally ill… but now there’s no need to go at all.

    When I think about it again, it’s such a strange thing that I can’t help but laugh.

    The random thoughts end there.

    It seemed like strange people were slowly approaching, so I quickened my steps.

    Fortunately, the ground was still solid, so although it was dangerous, I could run.

    And if you can run, you can build speed.

    For the rest of the day, I just continued to cross the road.

    I started running and then walking, and then walking and running again.

    And it was worth the effort.

    An intermediate waypoint appeared right in front of me.

    Although it was devastated beyond imagination, Anseong Toll Gate was firmly standing in its place.

    It may be inconvenient to pass due to abandoned vehicles and such, but it’s not to the point where you can’t pass at all.

    Considering that Anseong Tollgate is not far from Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, I don’t think there will be any major disruption to the schedule.

    I worked hard today, so get some rest.

    All we have to do is wake up tomorrow, march around a bit, and then find a means of transportation.

    If you steal a suitable bicycle and ride it, you won’t have any problems getting around.

    So, I could just do reconnaissance and come out.

    Well, if that doesn’t work, let’s run.

    By the way, this wasn’t a joke.

    I don’t know if it’s based on the premise of fighting.

    If you’re just scouting, you don’t need that much stamina.

    Since you only need stamina to hide and run anyway, you can invest more in movement.

    So now all that’s left is to sleep well, rest well, eat as much as you can, and then start again.

    …But when it came to sleeping on the street, there wasn’t as much space as I thought.

    It would have been a little more comfortable if I had a blanket and a sleeping bag, but I threw those away.

    Moreover, with the rain falling, it is obvious that your health will worsen if you stay outside in this weather.

    So, I was looking around to see if there was a place to sleep… It seems I was luckier than I thought.

    Until now, I thought all toll gates were unmanned, right?

    But there are a few manned toll booths left.

    I couldn’t sleep on all but one, but where was there even one?

    It’s a bit messy inside because it hasn’t been maintained, but if you worry about that, you won’t live long.

    There’s no need to hesitate, right?

    After unpacking, I sat down on a chair, laid down on something similar to a desk, and slept soundly.

    The door could be locked from the inside, so I didn’t have to worry about zombies.

    After a good night’s sleep, I woke up, had breakfast, and got ready to head out again.

    And then, taking off the poncho raincoat, we set off again.

    To be honest, walking wasn’t fun.

    Also, I don’t know if there is anywhere else to look.

    I get depressed because everywhere I see there are abandoned cars and other things.

    Well, it’s better than seeing corpses or zombies.

    So we continued marching for hours without saying a word.

    And as a result of marching like that, we were finally able to arrive at Suwon City.

    Part of me wanted to make a toast to myself after walking along the road for hours, but whatever.

    Given the current situation, I decided to go inside cautiously.

    Suwon city… was a bit more ordinary than I thought.

    I liked it because it felt like a moderately abandoned city.

    At least it was better than the damn green color of the millet.

    Now, if you go further into the city, you will encounter survivors and zombies.

    Personally, I thought it would be good to have survivors.

    Zombies, whatever. Wherever they go, they appear like regular customers.

    Since my purpose is reconnaissance anyway, I need someone who is good at the surrounding geography.

    Oh, and I wish it was a small elite or a solo survivor.

    Of course, I knew that it would be difficult to find a survivor traveling alone in this situation.

    If you don’t form a group, it’s difficult to survive.

    But if I’m a survivor who belongs to a group, I have to fit in with that, right?

    I’m tired of belonging to a group.

    “So please, any of the few elite survivors can come forward!!!”

    Shouting like that, I rolled out the hope circuit.

    A survivor who can easily join and leave for about a week.

    If it’s too small, I mean at least three people?

    I think if there are three to five people, including me, we can get around reasonably well.

    Of course, there is no way there would be such a survivor in this situation.

    If there were such survivors, they would have long ago run away to find their own way or are in a group.

    Maybe he goes up to the mountains and lives there.

    Whatever it is, it is certain that there is no way such survivors will appear.

    When I thought about it, all I could do was sigh.

    No matter what happens, I have to run alone and run with my body.

    Even if it wasn’t so dangerous, I would have brought someone to take care of it… When I think about it, it was a bit of a waste.

    Well, I have no intention of doing things roughly.

    So, without hesitation, I started moving forward inside.

    Anyway, no matter what comes out inside, you can deal with it as long as you’re not a noble, right?

    So, I put aside my caution and started speeding up.

    How long did it run like that?

    After all, the metropolitan area is a metropolitan area?

    The further we went forward, the more zombies began to appear.

    Of course, there were no big guys who attacked me.

    You probably know that several nobles have already been dealt with.

    It was annoying to have mutants watching me all the time, but whatever.

    Since my goal was reconnaissance, I tried to avoid unnecessary disputes.

    Where did I start hearing something that sounded like someone’s shouting and a zombie’s moaning?

    “Aha, I can’t stand this!”

    After saying that, he started running straight towards that direction.

    Just looking at it, it didn’t seem like I heard any gunfire or anything?

    So, at least it is clear that they are an elite few.

    Even if you belong to an organization, it doesn’t matter.

    Anyway, as long as I can get the means to go to Seoul, that’s it.

    So, it was okay to run there to get some points, right?

    When I looked at the situation, it seemed to be a bit worse than I thought.

    There are two or three markers. There are about ten to fifteen bounty hunters chasing after them.

    However, the survivors who responded were two women and one man.

    A female survivor with a bow is fighting hard, but that’s it.

    If you run away and reach a dead end, it will probably be the end.

    So I have no choice but to step forward, right?

    “Okay, let’s go!”

    It seemed a little tight, but I ignored it and ran forward.

    I didn’t forget to shout appropriately to attract attention.

    As soon as the Bounty Hunters noticed that I had appeared, they turned around in perfect order.

    I wonder why he turns around instead of running away, but whatever.

    Nothing bad, right?

    So, I threw my backpack nearby and took out my baton.

    Cheonmachong wouldn’t be bad, but it’s been a while since I wanted to experience the taste of my own hands.

    Strangely enough, the Bounty Hunters did not run away but kept changing their formation.

    I don’t know if I think it’s worth doing or not, but whatever.

    Seeing as the marker’s eyes are focused on me, he probably thinks it’s worth doing.

    When my thoughts reached that point, I felt a little embarrassed.

    So what? How many nobles have I killed?

    The moment I thought that those mutants would run away at best.

    “Oh?”

    In the blink of an eye, a bounty hunter rushed forward and swung his hand at me.
