Episode 234 [Encounter (4)]
The sound of gunfire was gradually decreasing. Fortunately, our troops seed to be retreating well.
This ti it was quite dangerous. Marcelo leaned against the wall and looked down at his hands.
The shattered hand finally returned to its original state.
The clothes had already turned into tatters.
There was blood all over the body, but fortunately the wound was almost completely healed.
Marcelo picked up the rifle lying on the floor with his hand that had returned to normal.
It was the gun of a colleague who remained until the end.
It was an ordinary rifle without any emblems, but it didn’t matter.
The enemy was not a mutant monster.
Ta-ta-ta-ta.
Marcelo pointed his rifle at the half-broken window fra.
The approaching soldiers scattered in all directions like grasshoppers.
“crazy! “Is that monster dead yet?”
“You rained down grenade launchers! “I saw the shield being broken and shattered!”
“This is why I hate awakened people! “That’s not even a person!”
An angry voice was heard.
The enemy’s voice speaking in English. It was the sound of Arican soldiers shouting.
Marcelo laughed bitterly when he heard the Arican soldiers shouting.
Why do you hate awakened people so much?
Rather, it was the Arican soldiers who used the awakened people like slaves.
But in a situation where we were fighting against enemies, that was aningless.
The place where Marcelo is currently fighting was Rio de Janeiro, Brazil’s second largest city.
The U.S. military had already pushed in here.
At the beginning of the war, the U.S. military occupied several countries in Central Arica that the U.S. military passed through, as well as Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador in South Arica.
Currently, U.S. forces were attacking Peru to the west and sequentially occupying the western coast of Brazil to the east.
Of course, the US military could not even touch the huge Amazon region, but it had long been a land of monsters.
The Arican soldiers were hiding and firing with only the butts of their guns exposed.
‘Did the bluff work?’
Fortunately, the approaching Arican soldiers seed to be scared.
The recovered hand was not moving well.
It was resilient enough to be called a cockroach, but even that had its limits.
When his mana ran out, his recovery power was bound to disappear.
He took a phone out of his tattered pants pocket. Fortunately, the phone was safe.
It is said to be a satellite phone for awakened people made by SG Electronics, and it was of great use during this war.
Tutu.
He glanced at the gun again and then made a call.
-You’re alive! where are you!
A loud yell ca from the phone. It was Sonya’s voice.
“Near the Maracana Stadium.”
-I beg your pardon? Are you out of Rio yet?
Her voice got louder. If I did sothing wrong, the enemy would also hear about it. He turned down the volu a little and asked her.
“Has everyone evacuated?”
-Everyone is getting out! Quickly escape with the others!
His angry voice was full of worry.
He answered her words with a bitter face.
“I am the only survivor.”
-Ah…
A special forces unit that stays behind and blocks the enemy’s advance. The only one who survived until the end of that unit was Marcelo, who had the recovery trait.
And this wasn’t the first ti he had survived alone.
He was with the remaining unit to stop the enemy during the continuous retreat, and even after the unit was annihilated, he ca back alive.
And our soldiers gave Marcelo a nickna when he returned alone.
A person who leads his comrades to death.
It was the nickna
‘Reaper’ .
Her voice beca quiet.
-Are you feeling okay?
“You know what my characteristics are. “My body is fine.”
Marcelo answered brightly.
-When you get hurt, it hurts the sa. Plus, if you’re surrounded, there’s nothing you can do with your body! Get out quickly!
she scread. As expected, this suited her.
And it was a good thing I didn’t tell her that there were limits to her ability to recover.
It’s still a ss, and if Sonya had known about it, she might have rushed here herself.
“okay. “Can we go to Sao Paulo?”
-Yes… Sao Paulo is still the gathering place. If anything changes in the anti, I’ll let you know.
Sonya’s voice darkened.
Sao Paulo was now the gathering point, but there was no telling how long even Sao Paulo would hold out.
However, losing Sao Paulo was no different from losing Brazil.
The capital, Brasilia, remained inland, and Bolivia, Chile, and Argentina. And although there were still rebels and drug dealers waging guerrilla warfare, it would have been difficult to hold out any longer if Sao Paulo had been lost.
The awakened people who would be taken to the military after being brainwashed would not be able to surrender, but once they reached Brazil, other countries had no choice but to surrender.
“Hold on a little. When the fight on the Eurasian side is over, EV, or rather Kay, will co to help.”
-…I hope it’s not too late.
Her parents lived in Sao Paulo. She would not leave Sao Paulo until the very end.
-Oh, I got a call from sowhere else so I have to hang up. Let’s go right away!
“Ah, I caught soone in a hurry. thanks for your effort.”
-Please co back safely….
“Okay.”
It was ti to end the call anyway. The enemy has stopped attacking. I guess it felt strange.
At tis like this, I had to move.
Marcelo put away the phone and turned his head to look at the statue of Jesus erected on the mountain.
The son of God, who saved humanity by sacrificing himself, was looking down on a city engulfed in war.
“Could you help again?”
But the statue did not respond.
He shook his head and threw the smoke bomb he was carrying outside.
Fuuuuuk.
As smoke covered the outside of the window, he imdiately ran outside.
Unfortunately, the smoke couldn’t completely cover him up.
“You bastard!”
“Shoot! “Kill !”
“shit! “I even requested a flight!”
“You can’t miss it!”
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
Bullets rained down on him.
Blood splattered and holes were made in the body. Pain surged from the bone marrow.
But this pain was just the pain I had always experienced.
He kept running.
Shoooooo!
As he ran, the sound of a missile flying reached his ears. It seed that the words about air support were not a lie.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
A missile hit the building he was in. The building was destroyed with an explosion. Smoke rose into the sky.
After a while, soldiers searched the surrounding area, but the only trace left was spilled blood.
He was nowhere to be seen.

The ti when Marcelo escaped Rio de Janeiro for a long ti.
Kyung-hoon, who was in another world, was looking at Isabelle who was sleeping.
The place where Isabel is sleeping is New York City. It was an underground bunker used as the group’s ho.
Bailey was lying on Isabelle’s stomach, dozing off.
Even for Kyung-Hoon, who lacks sensitivity, he looked very peaceful.
But there were tears in Isabelle’s eyes as she slept.
I cried a lot before I fell asleep, but I guess there were still tears left.
Kyung-hoon didn’t scold him separately.
Isabel cried alone, blad herself, and felt sorry. I blad myself so severely that it was difficult to give any further advice.
-I should have comforted you a little.
Eve said sothing next to her, but she had no intention of comforting her.
Isabel was clearly wrong.
She was just very lucky to survive.
If Kyung-hoon hadn’t crossed the dinsion first, if he hadn’t rushed to find her after seeing the empty dorm, and if Kyung-hoon hadn’t passed through the portal that Isabel had created,
she might have had to wander forever in the dinsional corridor.
Just the fact that Kyung-hoon didn’t scold her was enough consideration.
However, Eve sighed at Kyung-hoon’s response.
-I don’t understand why such a calm man is so popular.
Isabel, who cried and blad herself for a long ti, eventually fell asleep from exhaustion. He could no longer endure due to mana depletion.
widely. widely. Crack.
The sound of burning wood was heard. It was a sound coming from the speaker of the electric stove.
Eve asked with that sound in the background.
-It looks like you created a portal, so did it fail?
Unless you were a dinsion awakener, you could not know what happened inside the dinsion corridor. Eve didn’t know exactly what happened inside.
Kyung-hoon looked at Isabelle and answered.
“no. It’s not a failure. “It is a success.”
Eve’s voice brightened at Kyung-hoon’s words.
“So Isabelle is also able to travel between dinsions now?”
Kyung-hoon shook his head in response to Eve’s question.
“It’s a success, but unfortunately, it’s not possible to do it alone. “You can create a dinsional door, but finding the desired dinsional door or moving to it is impossible.”
Her newly acquired ability was to randomly tear through dinsions and attack enemies.
It was truly amazing to create a portal by combining those characteristics, but of course there were bound to be limitations.
“then. “I failed…”
“But it’s possible if you move with .”
Gyeonghoon’s portal did not accept any other living creatures.
Motorboats, motorcycles, cars, and robots could move together, but staying alive was impossible.
But he could go anywhere, even to another dinsion or another space, as long as he was in the sa place.
And all Isabel had to do now was create a portal, but that portal could accommodate not only her but also Kyung-Hoon.
It was clear that if the two of them moved together, they would be able to cross dinsions!
-Then, when Isabel’s mana recovers, we can move on together.
“The ti of my dinsional shift and Isabelle’s ti should also co back.”
Anyway, I was thinking of giving it a try if everything t.
“There is only one problem left…”
Kyung-hoon looked at Bailey who was dozing off.
Bailey yawned loudly.
– That’s right. Would it be possible for Bailey to move through dinsions as well?
Kyung-hoon didn’t know until he tried it.
– Then anyway, the second dinsion shifter appeared.
Kyung-hoon frowned at Eve’s next words.
He rembered the last awakened person he spoke to in the other world.
He was an awakened person who grew extrely quickly and had a mana skill that was difficult to understand. He was an awakened person with operational and utilization skills.
“You said his na was Yeongcheol, right?”
-You an the forr Yeongcheol awakened person?
“That’s right. You said he was awakened in the military, right?”
-Yes. It was an incredible growth rate. They say he got involved in the monarch hunt, but I didn’t know there would be an awakened person growing as fast as Isabelle. Luckily,
he wasn’t a doppelganger or a contaminated human.
But that made even more suspicious.
“Mr. Seol-yeon . “You contacted , right?”
-Yes. I asked him to investigate Youngcheol’s awakened person. He didn’t like it, but he gave permission.
Kyunghoon nodded at Eve’s words.
Kyunghoon didn’t like looking into other people’s heads either. But it was necessary at the mont.
He recalled the conversation he had with Yeongcheol before the dinsion shift.
Ordinary greetings and conversations. The search that followed and the sharp war of nerves.
However, it was too short a ti to find out sothing about each other.
Compared to Gyeonghoon, Yeongcheol lacked power, status, and information. Kyung-hoon didn’t have enough ti,
but in the conversation with him, Kyung-hoon could still hear words he shouldn’t have heard:
monster.
He’s a mutant monster. Monsters called beasts in English were called monsters. It was a na for monsters that could not be heard in this world.
Kyung-hoon muttered softly while looking at Isabelle who was sleeping.
“Isabel may not be a second dinsion shifter.”
