Chapter 130. Execution (2)
The place where Riman placed his hand was over the door's keyhole.
Riman pushed compressed air into the interior of the locking chanism and then detonated it.
POOF!!
With the sound of gold attribute parts bursting, the lock was shattered, and the gap in the door widened due to the impact.
Riman extended his other hand toward that gap.
The hand wearing a ring.
That ring was sothing acquired through the battle with Kim Eun-tae.
Originally, it was a cursed object where ‘Simryugwi’ was sealed, but after defeating Simryugwi, it was an item being used as a storage device for Eoduksini.
SWISH!
Riman summoned Eoduksini from the ring.
A black whip instantly dug into the door gap and coiled around the door.
Riman pulled his hand lightly.
Then, the whip imdiately tore the door panel off from its hinges.
THUD!
The thick tal door was lightly torn off and tumbled onto the floor.
A heavy door whose weight could be felt just by the sound of it hitting the ground.
Watching Riman tear off such a door lightly with a single hand gesture, the reporters could not close their mouths.
“What is that pitch-black whip……?”
“He used fire and lightning just a mont ago, and now he has a technique like that too……?”
Leaving these murmurings behind him.
Riman finally entered the interior of the research laboratory.
The floor, paved with smooth black granite, was flawlessly clean.
The interior of the simply decorated lobby even felt neat at a glance.
The epito of a clean hell.
And fitting for a hell, the watchn hidden in various places raised their heads.
CLICK, CLICK!
22 automatic search-and-destroy sentry guns.
The infrared rays irradiated from the sentry guns judged Riman as an enemy and instantly aid their muzzles at Riman.
Riman spoke.
“The welco for a guest is a bit excessive.”
The muzzles spewed fire.
RATATATATATAT!!
Hundreds of bullets flying toward Riman.
However, among them, there was no bullet qualified to cross the barrier of mana.
PING PING PING!
Warheads scattering in all directions with a clear resonance.
Between those things scattering helplessly like a swarm of gnats in the early evening, sothing pitch-black flashed.
SWISH!
The black whip.
That thing, which stretched out from Riman’s fingertips again, instantly extended toward the sentry guns.
CRASH CRUNCH!
The sharp end of the black whip pierced the bodies of the sentry guns and destroyed the bolts.
A few seconds were enough for the twenty-two firearms to fall silent.
The gunfire stopped.
A sudden silence, as if soone had cut the speaker wire.
And what appeared tearing through this settling silence were two assassins.
“…Needler.”
The guy who struck first was a Needler.
A hitman who uses a rapier, long and sharp like a needle, as a main weapon.
A rare swordsman evaluated to far exceed bullets in acceleration and penetration power at the mont of stabbing.
The guy used the scattered barrage as a smokescreen and dug in toward Riman.
And, a stab.
Even sharpened mana was condensed on that sword tip.
It could not be blocked by a barrier alone.
He had to dodge.
SWISH!
The aim was precise.
There was no deviation in the movent.
The Needler definitely stabbed the sword tip exactly into the opponent's glabella.
That should have been the result.
But why…….
“…Behind?”
“Your senses are good.”
CRASH!
The Needler was slamd into the floor just like that, and Riman trampled him to suppress him.
In that single mont of stabbing the sword, his back was taken by Riman’s high-speed movent.
“Kugh……!”
“You always have narrow vision at the mont you stab. It’s an old problem, but it’s still the sa.”
“How……?!”
The Needler could not hide his bewildernt.
It was natural.
Because his chronic flaw flowed out from the mouth of an opponent he was fighting for the first ti today.
He could not even guess how Riman knew that.
Anyway, the suppression of the Needler was over for now.
However, Riman’s fight was not over yet.
There were two assassins targeting Riman in this space right now.
There was still one guy left.
WHOOSH-
Coming down.
Another assassin, who had been hiding his body in the darkness below the high ceiling, struck down with a heavy blow.
It was a hamr.
WHAM!
A large hamr accelerated, aiming for the crown of Riman’s head.
There is no one with eyes on the top of their head.
Therefore, this attack had dug exactly into a blind spot.
The problem was that it was not a blind spot at all for Riman.
Riman reached out his hand toward the flying hamr head.
‘Stupid bastard……!’
Blocking a flying large hamr with just one hand?
‘I will crush you along with that forearm……!’
And finally, the mont the hamr head and Riman’s palm t.
It was an instant that the fierce blow turned into silence.
THUD.
“Huh?!”
The mont the hamr head touched Riman’s hand.
The impact sound that naturally should have burst out disappeared without a trace.
The hamr’s impulse had disappeared just like that.
A bizarre feeling like striking the hamr down onto a very fluffy lump of cotton.
The hamr wielder was flustered.
“What……!”
“The shock didn’t disappear. It was absorbed.”
Riman had absorbed the hamr’s shock as it was through the .
“…And I can also use the absorbed shock like this.”
Riman burst a part of the shock he just absorbed beneath his foot.
Under Riman’s foot was the state where the Needler was being trampled.
The shock crushed and destroyed the Needler’s ribcage as it was.
CRUNCH!!
“Kugh……!”
It was an instant for the lungs to beco flat like a sheet of paper.
With this, the Needler was dead.
The face of the hamr wielder, who lost a colleague in an instant, hardened blackly.
“You bastard……!”
The hamr wielder put his strength into the hamr head and pushed with all his might.
He intended to crush him with sheer force.
Riman’s answer to this was simple.
The impulse absorbed from the hamr wielder a mont ago.
He planted and exploded that into the guy's abdon as it was.
POOF!!
“Gah……!”
A pain as if the organs inside the stomach were being compressed into a single point.
As the shock burst, the hamr wielder flew far away and was embedded in the wall.
CRASH!!
The sound of the concrete wall breaking burst out, and the hamr wielder died on the spot.
With this, Riman handled all the threats inside the research laboratory.
Now, the only ones left were the researchers.
And among them, a person worth keeping alive was, no…….
There was not a single ‘human’.
* * *
anwhile, at the ti Riman was handling the sentry guns and the assassins.
“Seal all the specins, quickly!”
“Gather all the docunts for now! Don’t sort them! Sealing is the top priority!!”
“The shelter is this way! Hurry!!”
The researchers were urgently rushing the evacuation and sealing work.
It was to seal the data and specins accumulated so far, and for themselves to evacuate to a safe place.
Because everything guarding the laboratory had been completely destroyed.
And the one who destroyed all of that single-handedly was walking into the laboratory mont by mont.
They had no choice but to be urgent.
“Wait, what do we do about the living test subjects?”
“There is a bulk disposal button. Press that.”
“Button……? Isn’t that in the confinent room?”
“I will go press it and co back, so unlock the shelter.”
One researcher moved to the room right next door.
The na of that room was the confinent room.
It was a facility composed of several sealed rooms blocked by reinforced glass.
And inside those sealed rooms, children left neglected and skinny were trapped.
These were the test subjects.
Children who received a substandard judgnt from Cha Hak-jun’s ‘Black Orphanage’ and were released to this place.
Looking at them, the researcher clicked his tongue, tsk, and muttered.
“It’s a waste of toys to dispose of them like this… but it can’t be helped.”
The researcher walked inside the confinent room.
Because the disposal button was located inside the confinent room.
The mont the button is pressed, a strong acidic solution is sprayed into the sealed rooms, and the test subjects are all lted down, flowing down into the drain on the floor and disappearing.
A button where the evidence that they existed in the world disappears in an instant.
The researcher pressed that bright red button firmly with his hand.
No.
He only thought, that he pressed it.
Because the hand that should have been in place had disappeared.
SPLAT.
Suddenly, the researcher’s hand was cut off and fell to the floor.
“Uh……?!”
SPLASH!
Blood spurting from the cut surface of the wrist.
The researcher scread.
“Aaargh!”
“Does it hurt?”
Riman asked nonchalantly while standing next to him.
The researcher spoke while blocking the wrist from which blood was spurting.
“You, you……!”
“Shh.”
“Wa, wait! I will tell you the location of the shelter!! So I…….”
“I already know where it is.”
“What?”
[Incision]
SPURT!
The researcher’s head was cut off and fell to the floor.
Riman looked at the head once and then turned around.
The test subjects trapped inside the reinforced glass boxes.
Those children were looking at Riman with blank eyes that had no focus.
Riman spoke toward them.
“Wait. I will clean up quickly and co back.”
Riman went out of the confinent room and moved to the room next door.
When he opened the door to the next room, a considerably large laboratory unfolded.
But there was no one there.
Even the specins or important research data were all gone.
Riman walked across that silent laboratory.
There was no one, and there was nothing.
But Riman knew in detail what kind of things happened here.
In those days of playing .
There was an event to acquire a video file recorded at this Parakel 3rd Research Institute.
And inside that video, the daily lives of the researchers here were contained.
Their daily lives of playing with people with calm and composed expressions.
Operating tables, torture racks, centrifuges, cold storage, large ovens.
All of those things were their playground equipnt, and the test subjects were their toys.
Those who played pranks with other people’s lives like that, hid into the shelter saying their own lives were precious.
Of course, Riman’s cold reason did not get angry at that fact anymore.
However, the conclusion that they should not be kept alive was not much different from that ti.
“It’s here.”
Riman stood in front of a wall where there was nothing.
Just a wall that looked empty if a stranger saw it.
But this was a door elaborately disguised as a wall.
The door leading to the shelter, that is.
‘Let’s see, the locking chanism should be around here…….’
When he scanned the wall with mana, there was a part where the shape of the irregularities was minutely different.
Riman raised his fingertips to that place.
[Fla Seed]
SIZZLE…….
And he pushed a very small, clumped fla seed into that gap.
A seed of fire planted inside the locking chanism.
Riman lit the fire.
CRASH!!
The door panel falling off with an explosive sound.
Then, the figures of the researchers gathered closely together inside the sealed space were revealed.
Riman and the researchers.
Both sides looked at each other silently.
And the one who opened his mouth first was the side that was desperate.
The Research Institute Director said.
“…Haven’t you obtained everything there is to obtain?”
To the Director’s words, Riman answered.
“What did I obtain?”
“You killed all the security forces outside, right? If a show of force was the purpose, haven’t you already done enough and overflowing?”
“So?”
“I am recomnding a rational judgnt. Let’s cooperate with us. We can give you much more than you think.”
“What kind of things?”
“There probably isn’t a research institute that holds more biological experint data than us.
We will share it all. I guarantee that they are materials you cannot find even if you pay money.”
“Hmm.”
As Riman showed a nonchalant reaction, the Research Institute Director started to get anxious.
“…And we will also hand over our research institute’s best result to you, Sir. So…….”
“Why did you play with the test subjects?”
“Yes? Play with them? We have never done such…….”
“I already watched the video. So don’t beat around the bush with useless words.”
“……!”
A montary silence.
The Director spoke.
“…Is that not allowed?”
“Huh?”
“Anyway, they are things no one cares about even if they disappear, so us using them a bit like that…….”
SLASH-
The Director could not continue his words any further.
Because his vocal cords were cut by sharp compressed air.
“Kugh……!”
“It’s really strange. My reason is clearly pressing down my emotion tight…….”
SIZZLE-
Black lightning blood from Riman’s fingertips.
“…Why do I feel angry?”
