 Chapter 476 - Towards Hebei (1) Chapter 476 : Towards Hebei (1) The Nano Machine had the ID chip broken and removed. It meant that the TP could no longer track him. That was when Chun Mu-seong asked. “H-How did you break it?” Even Dr. Baek of his era said that the 5th generation Nano Machine flowing through his blood vessels couldn’t be eliminated without an EMP or electric shock. If the Nano Machine inside the body shattered with the shock, it would be dangerous. “I got rid of it with an invisible sword made of thunder qi.” Chun Mu-seong was shocked. The constant throbbing pain after the sword pierced him was the thunder qi. As the human blood acts like a conductor, the electricity passes through the entire body. However, “I managed to adjust the thunder qi so it wouldn’t hurt anywhere else. Are all your questions answered now?” “Uh…” ‘He thought of that?’ Chun Mu-seong was speechless. In his heart, he thought that the people of the past were good at martial arts, but now he realized as civilization progressed, the present had declined. Chun Ma or even Chun Yeowun, they were both excellent people with insight. “Well! Keep talking. So what is your plan if you fail to take Chun Ma to the future?” Chun Yeowun was curious about it. ‘If the ID chip is removed, it will be difficult to track me down.’ If Chun Mu-seong had been in the future era, he would have been easily traced. It was because the future was full of cameras and electromagnetic waves. But now here. No matter how strong the TP was, they couldn’t search the entire Jianghu region, and even if they tried, they would have to keep their devices on them at all times. ‘I have time.’ It was already discovered that he time traveled, so he had to endure the situation. He would have to fulfill the last thing he had come to do before he got caught. “… ancestor. Would it be fine to continue talking as we move?” Even if it was impossible to trace, it was dangerous to stay in the same place. There was nothing to be afraid of, but there was no need to create a troublesome situation either, so Chun Yeowun continued talking with Chun Mu-seong while descending the mountain. “Since I couldn’t take Chun Ma, the next choice was you, my ancestor. You were the next best.” As he said, Chun Mu-seong looked up to him. However, Chun Yeowun didn’t feel glad. It was something he had roughly guessed. “But that failed too. I used up all the time packs. I have only one left, and without that, I can’t go back.” Chun Mu-seong spoke while tapping the square bag on his waist. He had come to the past with the determination to risk his life, but if he was going to die, he would rather die in his time. “Which was why I had to resort to the last plan.” The final plan was the method Dr. Baek had prepared. Chun Mu-seong took a device out of the bag and said. “The Nano Machine in my ancestor’s body is the 7th generation model and one of a kind, and it can be controlled with this device.” A part of the Gatelinium was inserted into the device. It was the only device capable of copying the information from Chun Yeowun’s body which held the 7th generation Nano Machine. “You know that I could’ve moved all the analyzed data to the master controller so you could copy things like martial arts and formations.” “… I apologize. I should have asked for your permission first, but I was running out of time.” It was an inevitable choice for Chun Mu-seong, who couldn’t stay in one place for long. He was trying to return to his time after quickly extracting the data. Of course, that turned out to be impossible. “I don’t know what happened, but the only thing I know is that the device had an error.” The device was broken. Obviously, the Nano Machine in Chun Yeowun’s body had blocked the orders from the master controller. Unless the Nano Machine is forcibly removed from the body and reprogrammed, it’s currently a machine no one can interfere with. ‘It’s programmed to automatically self-destruct when it comes out of the body… it’s something that only the ancestor can use.’ Nothing could be done. It would have been nice if the converted data was uploaded into the main drive of the Sky Corporation before returning to the future, but things didn’t turn out like that. At that moment, Chun Yeowun stopped. “After listening to your story, I think I have a rough idea of what the future holds.” “Yes?” “Martial arts are fundamentally developed as time goes by. But if you have come back to the past and are trying to duplicate the martial arts, it means that the martial arts of the cult have been lost in the future.” ‘!?’ Chun Mu-seong’s eyes widened. He hadn’t even talked about the Sky Demon Order, but Chun Yeowun had already figured it out. It was embarrassing, as if the future generations were called out. “… how did you know that?” “You said that you have a position equivalent to an elder of our time. But isn’t an elder only a Super Master?” The Super Master Level isn’t low. However, if one looked at it from the Sky Demon Order’s past level, it was considered poor. Chun Mu-seong’s face turned red. In his time, reaching the Super Master Level is a great achievement. “Even if it’s nothing, shall we take a look at you?” “What?” Chun Mu-seong was puzzled at it. Then Chun Yeowun turned back to him and spoke. “Attack me with the best technique you have. If you are the son of the Lord, that means you must have learned things from your Lord, right?” “I, how can I do that to my ancestor…” Chun Mu-seong saw Chun Yeowun’s strength right in front of his eyes. He was at a level where Chun Mu-seong was nothing. It was embarrassing. “Don’t act silly. Didn’t you just try to control Nano and restrain my body? Don’t act like this and come.” At Chun Yeowun’s stubborn words, Chun Mu-seong bowed his head. There was a clear difference in skills, and he thought this was a waste of time, but he couldn’t ignore his ancestor’s words. “All right. I don’t have any weapons on me…” Crack! Chun Mu-seong broke a branch. Chun Yeowun was still looking at him. “Start.” “Yes!” Phat! With those words, Chun Mu-seong began to narrow the distance between him and Chun Yeowun. Chun Yeowun, who looked at the strides and movements, frowned. He definitely told the man to perform his best technique, but this wasn’t the Sword Force of the Sky Demon, nor was it the incomplete version of the Sword Force of the Sky Demon. Tatatat! More branches broke as Chun Mu-seong narrowed the distance. A sword made up of twelve different forms sharply targeted Chun Yeowun’s body. Chachachacha! ‘Aren’t you going to avoid it?’ Chun Mu-seong was perplexed. Chun Yeowun didn’t move. There was a moment when Chun Mu-seong was thinking of stopping the technique. Pak! “Huk!” Chun Yeowun grabbed the wrist which was holding the sword. It wasn’t a true sword, just a branch, but it was still dangerous as it was loaded with energy, but Chun Yeowun caught it too easily. “An-Ancestor?” “Are you going to claim that this is what’s used by the Lord?” “… I’m sorry, but this is the Sword Force of the Sky Demon.” Chun Yeowun couldn’t understand what he heard. He just shook his head. ‘Ha! This is the level of following something?’ He couldn’t help but be disappointed. This was just an imitation of the Sword Force of the Sky Demon, which he had restored. It was as if someone saw it, imitated it, and unfolded their own energy and forms. “It’s messed up.” “Well, except for the Blade Six group, which is the best in my time…” “Are you out of your mind?” Pak! Chun Yeowun let go of the wrist which he was holding onto. Chun Mu-seong had nothing more to say either, at least not to his ancestor. “… I apologize.” “There was a rumor that they were taking the military data.” “In order to revive our group or even the cult, we decided that the only way for us to flourish was to restore the martial arts which had been practiced.” Chun Mu-seong thought that nothing could be done about the Blade Six. If so, the only way to revive the Sky Demon Order was to learn the martial arts from when they flourished the most. Looking at Chun Mu-seong, Chun Yeowun thought. ‘From what I know about the future, it’s obvious that the martial arts of the cult are lost.’ It was so obvious that he didn’t even need an explanation. It must have been the work of the Blade God Six Martial Clan. But he couldn’t understand why they didn’t completely annihilate the cult despite it turning into a group that could control the future. ‘I want to go back to the time when that guy existed and overturn…’ As Chun Ma said, the future belonged to the descendants. Even if he tried to solve it, he couldn’t solve everything. Moreover, from Chun Mu-seong’s words, the Blade God had changed the past and became the immortal ruler of many time axes. ‘There are various time axes, but not all futures can be changed.’ And he didn’t like a future where the Blade God wins, but with so many different time axes, there were so many different futures. ‘But I owe him.’ One way or another, Chun Yeowun did receive help from his descendants. Without Nano, he couldn’t have possibly escaped from so many crises. ‘Then, I should give this guy a chance too.’ Chun Yeowun made a decision. “Great. You came here with the determination to revitalize the cult, so I will grant you what you wish for.” “Huh? What’s that?” “I’m going to teach you martial arts.” At Chun Yeowun’s words, Chun Mu-seong asked with a trembling voice. “You mean, you will teach me martial arts?” “Yes. With that pathetic martial arts, how do you plan on fighting with the Blade God Six Martial Clan in the future?” Chun Yeowun decided that since the ID chip was removed, his descendant couldn’t be traced, so it was worth spending time teaching him. Of course, even if the TP appeared, Chun Yeowun planned on dealing with them. He was willing to take the risk and help out. Thud! Chun Mu-seong bowed to express his gratitude. “Thank you. Ancestor, how am I supposed to repay this favo…” Woong! However, he was raised up by Chun Yeowun’s energy as he spoke. “Don’t have to. ‘I’m just paying you back for what you did for me.” “Ahhh!” Even if that was the case, he couldn’t help but be happy. It was natural that he was elated. He was being taught by his ancestor, a Heavenly Master. Chun Yeowun smiled and spoke, “Don’t like this too much. If you want to level up in a short time, the teaching won’t be very friendly.” “… sorry?” It didn’t take long for Chun Mu-seong to realize it. [AD Year. 2941.xx.xx] A space where the exact location was unknown. In a fairly spacious place, state-of-the-art equipment was installed all over the place. There, a middle-aged man with a mustache and in a white coat sat crosslegged in a chair, watching something with a young blonde TP. What they were looking at was a video. The man, who hadn’t taken his eyes off of the video, spoke. “Pause it.” The video was paused. The middle-aged man pointed to the monitor and said. “Enlarge that. Show me the eyes.” [Image enlarging.] The part pointed at by the man got enlarged greatly. The face which filled the monitor was Chun Yeowun. “Zoom in on both eyes.” [Yes.] After the orders were issued, Chun Yeowun’s eyes were shown. However, the two enlarged eyes of Chun Yeowun had white particles in them. Seeing that, the blonde TP yelled. “T-This is!” “He opened up augmented reality.” Tak! The middle-aged man snapped his fingers and got up from the chair. And spoke to the blonde TP. “That thing. My guess is right.” “Chief is right! You really are! I thought it was odd when he saw us in stealth mode.” The blonde TP was the one who escaped from Chun Yeowun. The middle-aged man put his fingers on the monitor and shrunk the image to see Chun Yeowun. He stared intently at Chun Yeowun and spoke. “Nano Machine… I don’t know what kind of tricks they used to hide it, but they injected it into someone from the past. Code Orange. Summon the commanders of each Special Forces unit.” “Special Forces! Roger!” Chapter 477 - Towards Hebei (2) Chapter 477: Towards Hebei (2) Originally, they were members of the cult who wanted to build tents near Changbai Mountain. However, at the order of their Lord Chun Yeowun, who joined them later, the half-built tents were cleared, and they moved to the northwest without break. After moving non-stop for two days, they were able to reach the western part of the Liaoning province. The second night, Chun Yeowun, who decided that they were too far away from Changbai Mountain, ordered for the camp to be moved and took measures so that he could rest for the night. “Ugh, it feels like my soles are on fire.” “… I’m exhausted.” “You! Don’t put them onto the ground. If you want to rest quickly, then fasten them with stones.” “Y-Yes!” At the urging of lieutenant Hu Bong, the cultists who were seated on the ground quickly got up. No matter how skilled they were in martial arts, they couldn’t sleep properly for two days. They were exhausted. Most of them seemed tired. If the barracks were built beforehand, they would have already been asleep. ‘Hm.’ Chun Yeowun felt sorry looking at his men who were working. Still, he couldn’t help it. He wasn’t afraid of the TP, but they would show up with great preparation if they actually did. That was what Chun Mu-seong had warned him about. [Ancestor.] When he looked at the place from which he received the telepathic message, he looked at Chun Mu-seong. Although his hair was short for a martial artist, he looked close to their era’s men once he changed his attire. Chun Mu-seong had naturally joined them under the pretext of joining the Sky Demon Order. Mun Ku recognized him, but at the request of Chun Yeowun, she decided to stay silent. [Did you memorize everything?] [I have memorized everything that you showed me.] ‘Smart one.’ Chun Mu-seong was smarter than he thought. It didn’t take that long for him to memorize what Chun Yeowun was teaching. Since it wasn’t easy to pass on martial arts while on the move, Chun Yeowun gave him some pointers on internal energy. And he had already memorized six martial arts techniques along with internal energy amplification. ‘He’ll have to memorize 10 more techniques of the cult and then the 24 Demon Swords and finally the Sword Force of the Sky Demon.’ Chun Mu-seong was lucky. Thanks to the Nano Machine inside Chun Yeowun, he managed to get information on about 6% of the cult’s martial arts. Chun Yeowun would select the most outstanding techniques and had him memorize them. Chun Mu-seong was skeptical when he heard that Chun Yeowun would teach him. However, [It won’t be fair if you’re the only one getting stronger.] [Ah…] In order to revive the Sky Demon Order, not just him, but everyone had to develop their skills. He heard that in the Sky Corporation, which was the future name of the Sky Demon Order, almost no one crossed the Master Level. It was truly shocking news. And the most talented ones were said to have only reached the Super Master level. [Among those who succeeded the same lineage as me, there are only a few others besides the Lords who reached the Super Master Level. Ancestor.] [… from what you said, the Lord or the chairman or whatever, is a Peak Super Master.] [That… is right.] If that was the case, it would be difficult to narrow the gap between them and the future Blade God Six Martial Clan. But he listened to Chun Mu-seong’s words, and he knew that in the future, martial arts wasn’t the only way to compete. It was said that there is science and technology, as well as the latest weapons, which held great influence. In addition, he said that several groups move besides the Blade God Six Martial Clan because there are various things other than martial arts. [I’m really ashamed, but we are only able to continue the legacy by investing in Nano and various other technologies.] According to Chun Mu-seong, Sky Corporation is considered the best in the world in terms of nano technology. And based on their research, the 7th generation Nano Machine in Chun Yeowun’s body was produced. Chun Mu-seong sent a message. [Hmm, ancestor. So, am I being taught the martial arts of my ancestors today?] He understood the reason for passing down the martial art, but he was anxious to learn the Sword Force of the Sky Demon, which was dedicated to the Lords of the cult. Before descending Changbai Mountain, Chun Yeowun showed him the Sword Force of the Sky Demon. Chun Mu-seong, who saw that, was astonished. In front of what Chun Yeowun had just displayed, everything he learned so far looked like child’s play. He couldn’t even call this technique a sword technique. ‘I want to learn that quickly.’ He was excited, but unfortunately, it wasn’t included in Chun Yeowun’s plan. [No. Tonight, I will teach you how to use the Sword of Illusion from the Ghost Illusion Clan, one of the top clans in our cult, and how to use internal energy, so memorize them and grow.] [Ah…] Chun Mu-seong couldn’t help but show his disappointment. As they camped, he expected that he would receive martial arts training from Chun Yeowun. But Chun Yeowun seemed to have other plans. ‘I couldn’t talk with Mun Ku properly.’ It seemed like Mun Ku was pregnant. It wasn’t told to anyone yet. Even though he had been talking to her for the past two days, Chun Yeowun couldn’t help but feel worried about not being able to take care of them. She was someone who had an official position, and now she would have to pay attention to their child. If he could have his way, he wanted her to return to the cult, yet he couldn’t let go of her hand because he didn’t know where the Blade God was lurking. [You haven’t slept for two days, take a rest and memorize what I taught you.] […yes.] Chun Mu-seong went away while mumbling under his breath. Looking at that, Chun Yeowun smiled. He knew just how motivated the guy was, but he also knew that his broken arm hadn’t healed completely, so there was no way he would teach him martial arts. ‘That broken arm will get better once he controls his inter…’ Shrek! It was then, a man wearing a unique mask appeared next to him. It was the Great Guardian, Marakim. In Marakim’s hand, there was something like a tray covered in cloth. “Lord.” “Great Guardian!” Chun Yeowun’s face brightened. It was the tea that he had been waiting for. Showing the tray, Marakim spoke. “I brought what you said. It cooled down quickly. I think it can be warmed up again. I can tell the cultists to prepare it and bring it back to the Lord’s ten…” “No. I will take it from here.” “Huh?” Marakim was puzzled, but Chun Yeowun just grabbed the tray and walked away. He walked towards the barrack where Mun Ku was staying. And that was when someone called Marakim. “Great Guardian.” “Ah! Former Lord!” It was Chun Inji. Next to him was Hu Bong, who seemed to have guided Chun Inji to where they were. “Uh? The Lord was here a moment ago.” Confused, Hu Bong asked the Great Guardian. “Great Guardian. Have you seen our Lord?” At that, Marakim pointed to Mun Ku’s barracks and spoke. “The Lord just went to Lady Mun’s barracks. Hmm.” At those words, former Lord Chun Inji smiled brightly and nodded. He knew that Chun Yeowun and Mun Ku had been in a relationship for a while. Of course, there wasn’t a single member of the cult who didn’t know what was happening between those two. “Our Lord is too much. Going in there as soon as the barracks are up. Hehehe.” ‘… amazing.’ Seeing how Hu Bong was smiling like a fool, Marakim shook his head. Hu Bong was the only one who could get away with saying such things in front of Chun Inji. He had to be brave to cross that narrow line. “If it’s something urgent, I can inform the Lord…” At Marakim’s words, Chun Inji waved his hands while saying. “Hehehe, leave them alone. This old man isn’t that ignorant. But, where have you been all day?” Early in the morning, he saw Chun Yeowun give Marakim an order. Chun Inji, who was curious about it, asked around. “Ahh, Lord said that there was something special he wanted to eat, so I went to get it.” “Something he wanted to eat?” Chun Inji frowned. It was because he didn’t know what order was given to Marakim. It didn’t look like Chun Yeowun had such an appetite, so it was surprising. “Huhuhu, he gave such an order? Was there a village nearby?” “I was fortunate that there was a village about 80 miles northwest. There I was able to find dried peaches, duck soup, and rice cakes.” “He asked for fruits too? That one is too much.” Chun Inji thought it was odd. Why would Chun Yeowun send Marakim to such a distant place just to get some fruits. ‘When I see this, he’s still young.’ Sure Chun Yeowun had done a lot of great things, but he was still young, very young. “Wah.” Hu Bong exclaimed at the items of food. Lately, all he had been eating were dry ingredients and raisins. Listening to the new dishes made him hungry. Looking at Mun Ku’s barracks with envy, he mumbled. “Uh, I’m jealous. Thanks to having such a strong man by her side, Mun Ku gets to eat all kinds of things. She even gained weight these days, and her stomach seems to be protruding out too. It would be better for her to eat a little and leave the rest to me. Hehehe.” ‘!?’ As soon as Hu Bong said that, both Chun Inji and Marakim looked at him. Hu Bong, who didn’t know why was perplexed. “Wh-Why are you looking at me like that?” “What did you just say?” “Huh? … that… it would be nice to leave the rest, but I’m not forcing her, I just can’t eat the jerky…” “No! What you said before that.” “… that Mun Ku’s stomach seemed like it gained weight… no, I don’t get it! Why are you being like this? Did I say something…” Leaving behind Hu Bong, Chun Inji moved. All of a sudden, he moved towards the barracks where Mun Ku was staying. Not just Chun Inji, Marakim was following him too. Hu Bong, who saw that, was confused. “Why?” Hu Bong still had no clue at all. Meanwhile, inside Mun Ku’s barracks, Chun Yeowun put his hand on her belly, while Mun Ku covered her face feeling shy. Nano’s voice echoed in his ears. [It has been confirmed to be a boy. Congratulations. As a result of the ultrasound diagnosis, it’s estimated to be around seventeen weeks…] He couldn’t hear Nano’s voice anymore. He put his hand on her belly to learn the condition of the child and the mother, but he found some unexpected news. Ba-dump! Ba-dump! A small heartbeat. And that wasn’t all. Augmented reality opened in his eyes, and he could see the shape of his child. ‘Ahh…’ The excitement which was budding in him didn’t go away. It was a strange experience for Chun Yeowun to be able to see his own child, who hasn’t even entered the world yet. ‘So this is my child?’ He was caught up in the strange feeling. It struck him again that he was going to be a father. “Ahh. Lord, how long are you going to touch me like that?” Mun Ku asked with a blushed face. Chun Yeowun stroked her hair gently. “Sorry. I could hear the heartbeat so clearly, just a little more… ah!” At that time, Chun Yeowun’s face suddenly became annoyed, making Mun Ku ask. “What is it?” Chun Yeowun took a deep breath. He lowered Mun Ku’s clothes which were rolled above her belly and reached towards the barracks entrance. And, Move! At the tent entrance, quite a few people were standing. ‘!?’ Mun Ku’s face turned stiff. They were Chun Inji, Marakim, Hu Bong, and even the Six Swords. Each of them had come here, but they couldn’t enter the barracks. They were waiting for someone to open it, and when it was done, they couldn’t hide the joy on their faces. ‘This…’ It seemed like what they heard was right. They acted as normal as they could to not burden Mun Ku. Chun Yeowun wasn’t even sure what to say, but Hu Bong suddenly bowed on one knee and shouted with a silly smile on his face. “Lord. Congratulations!” As soon as he said that, everyone knelt and shouted. “Lord. Congratulations!” All of a sudden, those who were working near the barracks too knelt down. Chun Inji shyly coughed a little, “Hm, congratulations to the both of you.” They then understood that the news about Chun Yeowun and Mun Ku having a child was revealed. “Acckkk!” Mun Ku, unable to process it, bowed her head. She was happy, but she was always shy when too many people gave her attention. ‘Nothing can be done.’ It was embarrassing that they all knew, but since it had come out, Chun Yeowun decided to accept it, so he walked towards Chun Inji and decided to address everyone. “Grandfather. And everyone…” It was then. Startle! Chun Yeowun stared at the dark night sky in the southeast direction. And Nano’s voice greeted him again. [Warning! Warning! A flying object detected in the air, distance 2 km.] ‘Flying object?’ Chapter 478 - Special Forces (1) Chapter 478: Special Forces (1) [AD. Year. 2941.xx.xx] A location that looked like a conference room. With a round table right in the middle. At the table, a middle-aged man with a mustache and white robe sat at the top, then there were five people in uniforms with moon and star designs on them. However, except for the middle-aged man, none of them were real. Woong! A beam was projected down from a device installed on the ceiling, a 3- dimensional image. The people were able to attend the meeting through that. The middle-aged man spoke while pointing to the screen which was behind him. “Did you get it?” Among the 3D images, a bald man with a black eye patch on his left eye opened his mouth. “I apologize, but should we really consider this a Code Orange? I think this is Code Blue or Yellow.” The bald man didn’t think that the image displayed called for so much attention. He didn’t think that the situation was that serious. The middle-aged man with a mustache who listened to that spoke while pointing the laser in his hand to the monitor behind him. “As you can see, everyone realizes that there is a Nano Machine inside that one’s body, right?” The eyes of the person in the image were enlarged so that the others could see clearly. The white particles which were hanging in their pupils. “Seeing that it’s augmented reality, it has to be a Nano Machine. But, as the captain of Special Forces, Hugo, said, should we now send in another unit with the same equipment while considering this a Code Blue?” Next to the bald man, a black man in a blue uniform spoke. Code Orange was the second-highest priority, under Code Red, in the TP. And it meant from that point on, the special forces could be deployed. “Special Forces captain, Takuya. How far did the reports go?” “I heard that the patrol unit sent to those coordinates were annihilated.” “Do you want to call for a Code Blue despite the new information?” “Commander. If the martial artist has a Nano Machine specialized for combat in him, it’s possible for the entire unit to be killed. And there’s a chance of leaking information…” Before he could finish his words, the enlarged image on the monitor returned to its original size and started playing. The five captains of the Special Forces looked at it. As they watched the video being played, their eyes changed. “No! He stopped bullets? Was it telekinesis?” “Weren’t those ultra-vibrating bullets?” Comments of shock and surprise flowed out of the captain’s mouth. Tick! The recorded video ended. The middle-aged man, no, the commander, asked them. “Okay, now what do you think about it? Do you still think it’s Code Blue?” A woman with curly red hair and voluptuous breasts opened her lips which were tinted with red lipstick. “Now I understand why the commander called our Special Forces before calling for the Great Gate.” The commander nodded. The Special Forces were special troops created by recruiting those who had experienced the Great Gate among the TP. “This man is a martial artist with high combat abilities which are close to the Gate. What is even more dangerous is that there is a Nano Machine in his body which cannot be traced or identified.” “An untraceable chip?” “What! Is that even possible?” Everyone was shocked. No Nano Machine could escape from the surveillance of the space-time detectors. Even if the Nano Machines were made small enough to operate, the electromagnetic waves inside the machine couldn’t stay hidden for long. It was possible to cheat for a short time, but they were always found. The commander spoke in a strong voice. “This is why we need the power of the Special Forces. We need to capture this man.” “Are you going to extract the Nano Machine?” A captain of special forces asked. With such great technology, it would be a waste to discard that Nano Machine. The commander nodded. “But it would be impossible if we don’t catch him. At least for the sake of order within the space-time system, your efforts are needed.” “I don’t know how many teams will be needed, but this will be fun. Because of the Blade Six group, I was always curious about the special abilities these martial artists had… I will go.” A captain of the Special Forces applied. The commander nodded his head, and then extending his hand, he said. “We never know, so you should probably take one more Special Forces unit to support.” Someone, who was sitting on the other side, got up from their seat. He was a tall, muscular middle-aged man in a purple uniform wearing an ox-horn helmet. It was just a 3D image, yet, the overwhelming pressure was too much to handle. “I will support.” The corners of the commander’s mouth formed into a smile. “Ugh, so the Special Forces of Keanu will go?” The commander was quite relieved. A middle-aged man in a green uniform asked with arrogant eyes. “Is it fine if we bring him back barely alive?” Dark night. Mt. Magol is located in the western part of Liaoning province. There was an unusual location at the top. Unlike places where trees and bushes grew sparsely, this location seemed clean and empty for a radius of about five meters. One might not think much of it, but one could see that it was unnatural compared to other places. Looking into the area, It seemed like a base camp had been built with electronic devices. There were four men in purple uniform in front of monitors, each watching the screens. They were members of the Keanu Special Forces unit, one of TP’s five Special Forces. In the middle of the barracks, the captain, Keanu, was sitting with his arms crossed. “A-13 coordinates, deployed.” “B-11 coordinates, deployed.” “C-15 coordinates, deployed.” Looking at one of the monitors, the image was being transmitted to them from the night camera. The camera’s viewing angle was looking down from the high sky, capturing a ground scene. It was an unmanned stealth drone. Beep! Beep! When a living organism is detected on the screen, it will automatically analyze it. So far, they haven’t been able to find anyone with a Nano Machine. “Captain, It’s going to take a while.” In front of the monitors on the left side, a young man with short grey hair and bewildered eyes shook his head while speaking. “We are used to face-to-face combat, so it would be better to cooperate with the Dead Rose Special Force…” “Therese.” Keanu interrupted his words. He looked annoyed at the words of the member. Therese, the young white-haired man, was bewildered. “Yes, yes, captain.” “Our Keanu Special Forces are veterans who have defended the Great Gate four times in Europe. What kind of cooperation are you planning to do with a unit led by a girl who uses telekinesis?” Keanu didn’t even recognize the other unit as a part of the Special Forces. That was how arrogant he was. But he had every right to be. If he hadn’t been placed in the TP by the command of the UN military chief, he might still have an active role in his former position. “You half-assed.” The young man scratched his head. “Captain. I told you it’s Tanaka and half-assed…” “Whatever. How did the pursuit of Chun Mu-seong of the Sky Corporation go?” “…” After being transferred to Special Forces, he was told thousands of times to call him Tanaka, yet he calls him by that name. Taking a deep breath, the man replied, giving up. “Phew, I don’t know. If the registered ID chip number were in this space and time, we would have detected it a long time ago, but there’s no reaction at all.” Dudud! On the monitor screen, Tanaka pointed to the detection circle spreading around, but nothing was caught. “Isn’t that strange? If he escaped into another time and space, it should at least be detected, but this is as if the chip is lost…” It was then. Therese, the one looking at the monitor, shouted. “Captain! Look here!” Everyone’s eyes turned in that direction. Something was caught on the drone’s camera. Hundreds of thermal sensations were detected approximately 4 km away. “Just a crowd of people?” At Tanaka’s words, Therese shook his head. “No. If you look at them, their bioenergy is too strong!” “Martial artists?” “Could be something like that.” “Keep the drone’s retro-reflecting panel open and lower its altitude to get closer to them.” “Roger.” At Keanu’s command, Therese grabbed the manual control in front of the monitor. He was planning to approach the place by controlling them himself. “Send the other drones the same coordinates.” “Roger.” There were many drones that Therese was controlling, and they were getting closer to where the heat sinks were. After reaching a distance of about 2 km, the camera began to show. When zoomed in, they saw a lot of barracks and people. They immediately started to look for the person they were supposed to catch. The screen was running a search on the image which was previously stored. It wasn’t that long. Beep! Beep! As the image magnified, someone walking out of a barracks was caught. The corners of Keanu’s mouth went up. ‘Found you.’ It was the unregistered Nano Machine holder, the martial artist that their commander had shown them. “Nice. The Special Forces will…!?” He was about to give the orders to move to the coordinates shown by the drone, but, He wasn’t the only one who was shocked. “Captain… that one… doesn’t it look like he’s looking into the camera?” The young man with black hair and sharp-looking eyes was staring intently at the camera. It was impossible to look at the stealth drone, which had a reflective panel activated and was 2 km away in the dark night. Therese said, waving his hand. “Eh, it must be a coincidence. If his Nano Machine had the ability to detect the drone, it could have figured out our location, but this isn’t enough…” It was then. The young man in the video pretended to swing something at the drone. And, Crackle! The camera split in half, and then the transmission was cut off. ‘!?’ Everyone stared dumbfounded, but Keanu shouted. “Have the other drones arrived?” At those words, Tanaka and the crew went back to their monitors. “B-15 almost reached the coordina…” Crackle! “Ah!” Tanaka’s monitor screen went blank. But that wasn’t it. Crackle! The screen, which another operator, Baren, was trying to switch, went blank too. Most of the drones had reached the location, but a strange phenomenon occurred where the screens were turning off. Only one monitor was still alive. The drone being controlled by Liam, who was as big as Keanu, was live. The nearest location to their target was 2.3 km. That was when Keanu urgently exclaimed. “Don’t go any further. Just increase the altitude and zoom in on him.” “Roger!” Dudung! At that time, a person’s face zoomed in on the monitor. With an annoyed expression, Keanu spoke. “Are you playing! Liam! You zoomed in too much.” Liam turned his head in confusion. “Cap…tain. I haven’t made any adjustments to the screen.” “What nonsense are you saying? Are you telling me that he’s in front of the camera?” Besides the reflective panel, the drone was high in the sky. It would be impossible to fly without switching into suit mode, but the man on the screen wasn’t wearing a suit. Keanu spoke in an absurd tone, finding it hard to believe. Crackle! “Ah!” The young man on the monitor reached out to an angle. Looking at that, it must have been at the camera. “No, I mean, he is really in front of the camera…” Chi-chi-chik! At that moment, the screen on the monitor changed to a blue screen, and letters moved up quickly. Tanaka spoke, realizing what was happening. “N-No way! Is he trying to hack the drone?” Liam was shocked by what he heard. “He has a Nano Machine, right?” “This!” With that, Therese urgently tried to kill off the connection with the drone. But it didn’t happen, so he forcibly broke it. Kwang! The force of the fists was so strong that the controller was completely shattered. Captain Keanu decided that something was off. He thought the opponent was someone who had strength, and he thought that he could be someone as tough as the Great Gate. But this one, this one, was making his palms sweat. ‘… this.’ It felt as if he was on the battlefield. It wasn’t something to be taken lightly. If the opponent had extraordinary abilities and knew how to use the Nano Machine so freely, he could no longer think of himself as someone with the upper hand. ‘I looked down on him. Nice. You are a martial artist of this era. So let’s do this right now.’ Thinking that Keanu shouted to his stunned members. “Keanu Special Forces!” “Roger!!!” “Move the base camp and come up with a strategy to hunt him down. Understood?” Everyone nodded and replied. “Roger!!!” The crew began to clean up the camp in unison. It was right to move the camp because the drones were lost, but there’s a high probability of being tracked if the man managed to hack into it. Trained, they could do it in an instant, and they quickly organized the equipment. “Now quickly dismantle the barracks and move…” It was then. Kwang! A loud roar erupted from outside. The entire barracks shook. “Ugh! Wh-What is this?” The barracks are equipped with a powerful magnetic shield, which could block any attack. Kwak! However, the ceiling of the barracks was ripped open, and someone entered. Thud! Bewildered, the members of the Special Forces spread out. The only one who stood still was their captain, Keanu, who mumbled. “Y-You?” A young man with long hair and a white face. He was the man who had the unregistered Nano Machine inside him, the one impossible to detect. The young man, who exudes overbearing energy, looked around and spoke in his usual cold voice. “Found you.” Chapter 479 - Special Forces (2) Chapter 479 : Special Forces (2) Among the abilities that Nano unlocked, there were a few things that were particularly difficult to understand. One of them was system hacking and reverse detection, and he never dreamed that it could be used. ‘The more I know about future technology, the more shocked I get.’ Thanks to Nano, he was able to trace back where the drone came from, but he was shocked to see the barracks. He didn’t expect the hidden retro-reflective panel functions to be used this widely. ‘So these are the ones.’ Chun Yeowun looked at the 5 people inside the barracks. They were all wearing purple uniforms, and they seemed shocked. They were muscular and large, and they all seemed to be similar to the size of Ko Wanghur, of the Six Swords. ‘Huge.’ But that wasn’t the point, Chun Yeowun spoke first to those who seemed to be on guard. “Why did you track me down like that?” He was referring to the stealth drones. At that question, Keanu opened his mouth. “You speak Chinese, too. Ahaha. You must be Chinese. Or maybe Cantonese?” It was similar to the TP officers who had come before. After speaking in English, the man suddenly spoke in fluent Chinese. Keanu continued speaking again. “Don’t tell me that you don’t know the reason behind it?” He clicked his tongue, looking at Chun Yeowun, who didn’t seem the least bit shocked. And Chun Yeowun realized the reason. ‘Was it that ungrateful brat? Even after removing the ID chip, the tracking was fast. Did letting one go turn into this problem? Troublesome.’ Even if they tried tracking, he thought he could have some free time on his hands. But they managed to find him within two days. “Do you think I’ll let you guys take him?” “Him?” At Chun Yeowun’s words, captain Keanu shook his head and said. “You are misunderstanding something. Our purpose is you.” “Me?” “You, a man of this age, don’t you have something in your body that isn’t compatible with the era you are living in?” Chun Yeowun’s eyes narrowed at the question. Until he came here, he thought that their purpose was to get his descendant, Chun Mu-seong. But that was wrong, ‘They know of Nano.’ Last time, he deliberately refrained from using the abilities of Nano. Of course, this time, he used them to track these people down. He wasn’t sure how they found out, but they noticed that he had Nano or a Nano Machine in his body. “So you have something to do with me? Time Patrol.” If they knew it, then he didn’t have to hide it anymore. Chun Yeowun openly spoke. This time, the eyes of the Special Forces members, even Keanu, were shocked. “As expected, you are aware of our existence because you have been injected with a Nano Machine. Or did you hear that from the criminal named Chun Mu-seong?” “Criminal?” “Yes. Criminal. He committed the worst crime which disrupted the flow of time and space from the moment he tampered with history.” Chun Yeowun’s eyes turned cold. And as if to warn Chun Yeowun from doing anything, Keanu said. “Don’t take this the wrong way. I doubt that this is an era where things can’t be solved with words. We operate in accordance with the United Nations Time Patrol Act. In this era, it’s like the Emperor’s order.” “So?” “He’s a criminal who interfered with the flow of time and space and indirectly harmed people. If you come with us quietly, get arrested by us, we will remove the Nano Machine in your body and adjust your memories so that you can go back to your normal life.” Simply put, a surrender. Chun Yeowun shook his head at those words. From the beginning, Keanu knew that Chun Yeowun wouldn’t surrender. He was just stalling to think of an attack. “You are making an unwise choice. I thought that you would at least have the ability to think and judge properly because you have a Nano Machine inside you, but in this era…” “You speak bullshit with a lot of care.” “What?” Chun Yeowun raised his right hand. And then he clenched it as if he was pressing something inside his hand. And, Bang! Bang! Bang! With dust rising off the ground inside the barracks, explosions occurred in four directions. “No!” Tanaka couldn’t hide his embarrassment. What just exploded was the magnetic confinement device. It’s easy to subdue an opponent of a specific time while it constantly moves on the ground by absorbing the sounds. “Did you think that I wouldn’t know if you tried stalling?” “Shit! Keanu Special Forces! Open!” Those who were on alert, at the order of their captain, moved back. At the same time, purple metal suits covered their bodies. Chachachachak! Once the suit transformed, the five of them stretched out their arms towards Chun Yeowun. Then, something was shooting from the hole which was formed in their palms, a strong energy wave. Woong, [Low-frequency infrasound.] At Nano’s warning in his head, Chun Yeowun opened his arms wide. Inside the barracks, where there was no wind, a strong tornado rose. Wheeing! Strong winds, which acted like shields, blocked the low-frequency infrasound. ‘Kuk, how is he blocking the infrasound?’ Therese bit his lip. They knew that the Nano Machine would get in the way, but it seemed like the machine immediately let the man know how to stop the attack. “Huh! If this is blocked, we will subdue him with force!” At that time, Liam, who had the same physique as Keanu, jumped at Chun Yeowun from behind. Shhh! The suit form had accelerated the man’s movement. Liam threw his fist at Chun Yeowun’s head. Chun yeowun turned around and slightly blocked the fist with a single hand. Pak! ‘Hm?’ Chun Yeowun frowned. He thought that it was a simple punch, but the power was immense. Even Chun Yeowun, who had the strength to break through the sapphire wall, was about to be pushed back. Chikkk! “Whether you are martial artists or something else, you can’t stand the power of my remodeled body.” Liam was a human weapon whose entire body was converted to artificial muscles. Since it easily surpassed the limit of human beings, the punches he threw had tens of tons of power. If it was a battle of plain physical power, he could overpower Chun Yeowun. But, Pak! Chun Yeowun, who was pushed back for a moment, went stiff. He didn’t move anymore, as if a huge wall was supporting him from behind. ‘He, he… how?’ That was when he heard Chun Yeowun’s words. “So what if you have physical strength?” Chun Yeowun had reached the peak of internal energy. He instinctively knew that he couldn’t overpower Liam with pure strength, “Kuk! Then!” Liam used his other fist. Chun Yeowun caught it too. “Suit upgrade!” Swoosh! As soon as Liam’s words fell, the particles on his suit moved and wrapped around his body, and the force of his punch rose sharply. “Liam, hold him!” Tanaka shouted as he pulled out a device from his waist. Push! When a button was pressed, a sword made of light, a lightsaber appeared. Chun Yeowun, seeing that the lightsaber giving out red light was unusual, tried to shake Liam off. But before that could happen, a sudden vibration occurred from Liam’s fist, which was covered in his suit. Drrr! [Ultra-vibration occurring in the armor of the opponent’s suit.] Nano’s voice sounded like a warning. It seemed like he was trying to destroy Chun Yeowun’s hands which were holding his fists. “Kuaahahaha! It’s too late to regret. You caught my body so…” Slash! Thud! Something fell with a thud sound. Falling to the ground was nothing but, “My-My arm?” Liam’s arm which was supposed to be in the purple suit. Crackle! Sparks shone on the severed section of the arm. As it was a remodeled body, he didn’t feel any pain. Although he didn’t feel any pain, he was shocked. He opened his mouth as he blinked his eyes. “H-How did you? The suit?” It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the suit’s material was made with the hardest material on the planet. He couldn’t hide how shocked he was when such a material was cut down so easily. “I wonder if the head is remodeled too.” “What?” As Chun Yeowun slightly waved his hand, the invisible sword that cut off Liam’s arm pierced his forehead in an instant. Puck! “Kuak!” Liam fell backwards with a small shout. “This bastard!” Wheeing! Tanaka’s lightsaber aimed for Chun Yeowun’s head. When Chun Yeowun stretched out his left hand and pretended to push him away, Tanaka and his lightsaber bounced back. “Ugh!” Woong! He didn’t fall. The white particles emitted from Tanaka’s suit stopped him from falling. Unbalanced, despite that, Tanaka aimed the lightsaber. “You monster! Die!” And, Pang! A beam of light that extended from his lightsaber rushed for Chun Yeowun. Chun Yeowun waved his palm in the direction from which the rays were flying in from. Phut! Ripples formed from his palm as the space shook, and the rays bent away and pierced the barracks. It was the unification of energy, which he saw Ark Wui do. Kwak! “N-No way! How can he bend beams with his bare hands?” They didn’t know that such things could be done without a Nano Suit. Even if he wore a Nano Suit, dispersing the light beam could be done, but not bending it. “What kind of…” “This is annoying.” Chun Yeowun reached out to grab the lightsaber. Woong! “What?” ‘Huh?’ He tried to steal it with internal energy, but Tanaka was holding onto it firmly, as it was connected to the suit. It seemed like he was pulling the arm instead of the weapon. “Well, there is nothing I can do.” When Chun Yeowun said that, energy rose. An invisible sword emerged from above Tanaka and fell, trying to cut off the arm which was holding the weapon. “Noo!” Then, Therese, who was wearing a thicker suit than the others, shouted. “Panel!” Chachacha! That very moment, Therese’s suit disintegrated and turned into 30 drones with muzzles that moved. Swoosh! Those drones all surrounded Chun Yeowun. Red dots appeared all over the vital parts of his body. “Stop. Lift a finger, and I shoot.” All drones were capable of using ultra-vibrating bullets. He was sure that stopping them at such a close distance would be impossible. But, he was confused with Chun Yeowun’s reaction, “I see.” And, “No!” Despite the warning, the invisible sword cut off the arm of Tanaka, who was holding the lightsaber. Slash! “KUAAAKKK!” A scream from Tanaka. Maybe he wasn’t a remodeled human. That’s probably why he couldn’t bear the pain and cried out. Therese cried out. “You motherfucker! Shoot him now.” The AI in the suit, which controlled the panel, gave the order to fire. But it stopped. An anomaly occurred the moment the bullets were about to leave the muzzles. [Drones not set.] The voice of the AI was heard in his ears. ‘What do you mean?’ [The control of the panel appears to have been eroded. Drones aren’t responding to the order.] ‘What?’ Despite the AI speaking in English, he couldn’t understand until Chun Yeowun raised his hand. Chik! Then, the guns aiming for Chun Yeowun pointed to the remaining members of the Special Forces. “No, this is absurd! How can this happen?” This was nothing much for Chun Yeowun, who could handle thousands of Air Swords. Looking at those who were bewildered, Chun Yeowun spoke with a sly smile. “You said you’ll shoot. Why aren’t you doing it?” “Fuckk!” Therese swore. He couldn’t shoot. However, unlike Therese, who was panicking, their captain could guess one thing. ‘The movement control has been lost by us, but he cannot shoot.’ Which meant they still had a chance. [Therese. Can you hear me?] [Captain?] He ordered Therese to blow up the drones at his signal. Since the opponent had a Nano Machine, they had connected their communication frequency, just in case. ‘It’s possible.’ The drones were still around Chun Yeowun. No matter how strong the man was, if the drones exploded at such close distance, even a monster would get injured. This means they would be able to take down Chun Yeowun without much effort. Step! Step! Hiding his intentions, Keanu stepped forward. “Ah, you’re making me take the lead.” Until now, he just looked at what happened. As he moved, his upper body grew even larger, probably because the suit made it look like that. “I never thought that I would have a chance to show my skills since the last Great Gate battle, which happened two years ago. You are special in this era. Thanks to you, I get to warm up my body.” His voice was full of arrogance. Despite seeing all that Chun Yeowun did, he didn’t feel scared. The other Special Forces members had a high level of trust in him. It was like they were thinking, ‘the captain is moving.’ Keanu took a unique pose and continued. “Martial artist. Be nervous. You will experience that it’s impossible to deal with me, a fighter who has experienced the Great Gate…” Slash! At that moment, Chun Yeowun acted like he wielded something. Puzzled, Keanu asked. “What have you don…” Drip! Before he could finish speaking, the thick neck of the captain fell to the ground. Roll! Roll! ‘!!!’ The members of the Special Forces went stiff. It happened so quickly that they were too shocked to realize what just happened. Chun Yeowun mumbled in an annoyed voice. “Why are you talking so much?” Chapter 480 - Revise/Battle (1) Chapter 480: Revise/Battle (1) The head rolled on the ground with a bewildered expression on it. Along with Liam, Keanu, the captain of the Special Forces, had modified human abilities. But who would have imagined that he would die in such a vain manner? ‘!?’ Surprised by the sudden death, the Special Forces only then realized their situation. Until they met him, they were all burning with desire, saying that they would win the battle, which is on par with the Great Gate. But the situation wasn’t in their favor. ‘Damn it!’ Rather, they were being hunted down. Of the Special Forces, two were killed, and one had an amputated arm making him incapable of combat. There was no other way but to run if they valued their lives. ‘Ugh, it’s impossible for us to do anything to him. Subjugate him? Crazy!’ Therese groaned inwardly. Subduing the enemy was the only possible way they could have an advantage over him. But how could they subdue a monster? On the contrary, it was unknown if they could even escape from there. ‘Two main members of the Special Forces are gone. Maybe when all five special forces come… ah!’ Suddenly, Therese managed to think of something. “Dead Rose Special Forces!” They weren’t the only team which came here. Although they weren’t together because of the arrogance and stubborn nature of Keanu, that person was also in this time. ‘I can ask for help.’ It wasn’t to subdue the monster. He wanted help to run away. Chun Yeowun, who had killed Keanu, glanced at the remaining three people who were holding onto their lives. It was simple eye contact, but the three felt terrified. ‘We need to stall for time…’ Therese raised his hands. It meant that they were willing to surrender, and it was something everyone knew regardless of time. Chun Yeowun raised his right eyebrow as he asked. “What are you doing?” “Ah, we lost. We don’t want to fight anymore.” At Therese’s words, Tanaka, who was holding his severed arm, shouted. “Therese!” Therese hands which were in the air, signaled something. Tanaka and Baren, who thought that he might have a plan, went silent. Then he spoke cautiously. “I apologize. We can’t do much with our current power. Any further resistance is meaningless.” Chun Yeowun responded in a cold voice. “Then you shouldn’t have come here in the first place.” Therese responded while breaking out in a cold sweat. “Ugh, we are nothing more than mere soldiers. If an order is given from above, we need to do the task.” He wasn’t wrong. He wasn’t here with the intention of catching him. “Do you think something like that will work?” Tuk! With those words, Chun Yeowun took a step forward, making Therese scream. “I-I want to make a suggestion!” “I Don’t feel like hearing it.” “Wait! If you kill us here, then it will only repeat over and over again!” That was when Chun Yeowun’s steps stopped. As he said, if the Special Forces failed, the probability of stopping Chun Yeowun was low. However, they would send in more people. ‘He’s showing interest.’ Seeing Chun Yeowun stop, Therese thought that he managed to catch him. Therese quietly sent a message to Baren. [Baren. Send a rescue request to the captain of the Dead Rose Special Forces, right now!] [Roger!] Baren, who learned the true intention behind Therese’s plan, hurriedly tried to send a request. And Therese continued to say something that could appeal to Chun Yeowun. “We, who fought with you, came to realize that everything will only be for naught. So if the battle ends here, we will try to persuade the others.” “Persuade?” “Right. The TP knows of your Nano Machine, and I will inform the headquarters that the recovery of the Nano Machine is impossible. If that is relayed, there will be no more additional troops.” Chun Yeowun’s eyes narrowed at those words. Now, the idea was tempting. ‘He’s interested!’ Therese, who thought his suggestion worked based on Chun Yeowun’s attitude, was gleaming with joy. He thought that if this plan worked, he wouldn’t just gain time but also succeed in deceiving the man. After all, there is no way 2 Special Forces can take down the monster. And after returning to headquarters, all the Special Forces will have to work together to develop a strategy from the videos they filmed so far. ‘We need to go back.’ He didn’t show it, but Therese was on the edge of breaking down. While he was doing that, Chun Yeowun opened his mouth. “I don’t get it.” “What do you mean?” “You said that you only follow orders. How do you plan on convincing your superiors?” At Chun Yeowun’s words, the faces of the other two members went stiff. However, maybe he expected the question, so Therese answered immediately. “I will deceive them.” “Deceive?” “As long as we show the dead bodies, including the captain’s, we can say that it was a fierce battle and put it down in an official report.” “That means…” “Yes. I will tell them that the Nano Machine couldn’t be retrieved because you died during the battle. As with most Nano Machines, perhaps it was also programmed to automatically stop working as soon as it’s removed from the user’s body. The headquarters will have no choice but to trust us.” It was something to gain time, but it seemed like a plausible act. In fact, Therese wasn’t sure if the superiors would be deceived by that or not. But of course, he wasn’t planning on doing any such thing. ‘If the Dead Rose Special Forces come, get on the Time Jet and escape. They should be here.’ These people didn’t use time packs. If they were, they couldn’t be bringing in such enhanced devices like drones. Time Jet. It wasn’t a mass-produced device like the time pack but a large-scale spacetime transport only used by higher-level TP units. “How does that sound? This is an offer that won’t hurt you. We too are taking risks for our lives.” Therese looked at Chun Yeowun with tense eyes. The energy subsided. “It’s a tempting offer. That’s definite.” Chun Yeowun expressed his affirmation of the suggestion. ‘Yes!’ The faces of the remaining members, including Therese, brightened. He thought that they would lose, but they succeeded. Now, if only that Time Jet would appear, they could escape from here, and this horrifying nightmare would end. It was then. Slash! Roll! Roll! ‘!?’ The sound of something slashing and something rolling on the floor. Therese turned his head when Tanaka yelled. “Barennnnn!!!” The only thing he saw was a headless suit. Blood gushed out like a fountain from the severed neck. Push! Baren’s head was rolling on the floor. With that, Therese yelled. “Wh-What is this? You definitely affirmed the suggestion…” “When did I accept it?” “What?” “Why would I believe your words?” “No. Then you could have asked us for a contract document rather than an oral agreement. Are you really trying to put an end to the cycle?” Chun Yeowun shook his head at those words. He pointed to Baren and said. “You say all of that when you were asking for reinforcements behind my back.” ‘!?’ Therese shuddered at those words. The frequency he sent the message to Baren in was a secure one, one that only the captain and the team knew of. But that wasn’t it. Therese looked at Baren. “Did you say Dead Rose Special Forces? So you weren’t the only ones who came here.” ‘Damn it!’ Baren was right. At Chun Yeowun’s words, Therese cursed himself. If the enemy had a Nano Machine in them, then it was like speaking openly, and now that Chun Yeowun knew, they were at a disadvantage. There was only one way left. ‘We need to hold out until the Time Jet arrives.’ Therese bit his lip and shouted at Tanaka. “Run outside!” “Who said I was letting you go?” Chun Yeowun tried to create an invisible sword. It was then, Therese jumped back and pressed a button on the palm of his suit. Then, Kwakwakwakwang! The drones floating around Chun Yeowun exploded. Although the control was lost, the ability to fire and self-destruct was possible. Originally, he was waiting for captain Keanu to give the signal, but he was dead, so he used it then. Kwakwakwang! The explosion of the drones was huge. The drones were developed for the direct bombardment of enemies in addition to firing bullets. Tear! Using the suits, Therese and Tanaka ripped the tent apart and escaped. The barracks were in flames due to the explosion. “Yes! Yes!!!” The two men who came out of the barracks cheered. Even if the opponent was a monster, the drones exploded nearby. Which meant that it would be impossible for the man to use his Nano Suit. “You disgusting bastard! If you had let yourself get fooled, you would’ve been able to live a little longer! Now go to hell!” Therese raised his middle finger towards the barracks. He was sure that the man was dead. “Hahahaahahahhh!” It was then, Wheeing! In the flames which were burning the barracks, a strange phenomenon began to occur. The flames turned into a whirlwind and suddenly soared into the sky. “Wh-What is this?” Wheeing! The flames which soared up into the night sky disappeared. And a hazy image could be seen from the smoke which was left behind Even though they didn’t want their thoughts to be true, they couldn’t erase the ominous feeling which was rising within them. ‘No way. How could, in such an explosion…’ Slash! At that very moment, something passed through Therese’s middle finger. Tap! Something happened, but then his middle finger got cut off and fell to the floor. His finger was cut off, and he wasn’t okay. With heat rising to his face, Therese screamed. “Ackkk! Fuck! My finger!” Swoosh! Chun Yeowun suddenly appeared in front of him. It was shocking. Despite all the explosions which happened so close to him, there wasn’t a single wound on him. “What were you trying to do with those explosions?” Unfortunately, he didn’t know that flames didn’t work on Chun Yeowun. After absorbing the Flame of the Qilin, he was able to handle flames freely. “The middle finger? It made me uncomfortable.” “Ackkk!” Therese looked furious at Chun Yeowun’s nonchalant words. “What are you doing?” Puck! “Kuak! My eyes!!!” Chun Yeowun’s two fingers dug out his eyes. This pain couldn’t be compared to getting a finger cut off. Therese cupped his face. [Wounded area will be healed.] Chachacha! As the helmet was on, Therese’s suit attempted to repair the wound. But, Pa-chik! [Suit… is… forcibly… shut… off… and…] The AI’s static voice resounded. Chun Yeowun had cut the suit in half with the invisible sword. Shockingly, only the suit was cut and not his body. The suit he was wearing was cut off and fell like a curtain. Tatak! Chun Yeowun hit his blood points, making him immobile. ‘Tch! Why? Why am I like this? Why isn’t my body moving?’ “Cough!” Blood was coming out, so he couldn’t even open his mouth. The fear was indescribable. He couldn’t see, he couldn’t move, and he couldn’t speak. “Wait a while.” He could only hear. ‘What is he up to?’ Therese heard the sound of something being cut. Slash! “Kuak!” A scream, and he could tell who it was from. ‘Tanaka?’ It was definitely Tanaka. It was just a scream, but Therese was convinced. Tanaka was dead. ‘Tanakkkaaaa!!!’ The reality was that he couldn’t do anything but scream internally. He was on the verge of becoming crazy. While he had killed all the others, he couldn’t understand why Chun Yeowun was still keeping him alive. Soon, Chun Yeowun’s voice rang through his head. “You guys have measures to make your body melt when you die.” Creepy! At those words, a chill ran down his spine. The TP crew were arranged to disintegrate right away when their heart stops. If that happens, everything from their ID chip disappears, making the person impossible to trace. ‘N-No way!’ Chun Yeowun’s voice came again. “If I keep you alive, the Dead Roses Special Forces, who heard your request, will come to assist you, right?” ‘!!!’ Right. He was being used as bait. “Umumumum!!!” ‘Ah… no!’ No matter how much he wailed, there was nothing he could do as the suit was removed. Whoong! As he kept screaming inside, a strong wind flew through Therese’s whole body. At the same time, the mechanical sound of a heavy jet was heard. Chapter 481 - Revise/Battle (2) Chapter 481: Revise/Battle (2) Woong! The night sky shook as if something was moving in it. As a reflective panel was being used in the sky, the top of the mountain shone in the moonlight. It seemed like a giant eagle. But probably because of its silver color, it felt cold. Shoo! The white particles coming out of the wings decreased as its altitude lowered and a strong wind blew. Chun Yeowun exclaimed. It was gigantic and couldn’t be compared to the ‘drones’ the Keanu Special Forces used a moment back. ‘Are there people riding inside? The carriage of the future is a wonder to me.’ Besides, it could fly. If it wasn’t for Nano, he might have been even more surprised. ‘Is it floating?’ The purpose of this Time Jet seemed to be flying. And somehow, Chun Yeowun wanted to subdue those in the jet and seize it. ‘It’s good that they heard.’ There was a man standing alone below the Time Jet. This person, whose blood points were hit and eyes were bleeding, was Therese, the lieutenant of the Keanu Special Forces. Chun Yeowun thought as he looked at the man. ‘Anyway, I’ll have to kill them before they call for more troops in the future.’ If he didn’t, it would turn into a vicious cycle. If he noticed them and dealt with them, it would give him some time, but the future’s science and technology were limitless. It was unknown who all would come for him. So, Chun Yeowun decided to adopt the method Therese had suggested, lying. ‘Only one person is needed.’ Chun Yeowun decided to extract information from the enemies. However, he realized that his proposal will be based on the other person’s behavior. The more complex the idea, the more difficult it was for the other person to accept. The simpler it was, the easier it would be accepted. ‘Information that I died during the battle.’ All he had to do was say that he was the only survivor. Therese said that the Nano Machines disappear when the users die. Then, if a survivor reported that to the future, there’s a high probability that the superiors of the TP would believe it. ‘If this fails… I can do something else.’ There was nothing wrong with trying. Chun Yeowun looked at the Time Jet. Wheeing! At that time, a round beam came down in a straight line from the lower part of the Jet, which was still in the air, and fell on Therese, who was on the ground. And Therese’s body floated up. ‘This!’ Chun Yeowun frowned. He thought they would come down and take the person themselves, but he didn’t expect it. He didn’t know what kind of trick it was, but it looked like the man’s body was being taken into the Time Jet, and they were trying to leave. ‘They can’t leave like that.’ Chun Yeowun extended his hand towards Therese. Therese’s body, which was floating up, suddenly moved down and stuck to the ground. Woong! The light kept trying to pull him up, but he wouldn’t budge. After several attempts, the light disappeared. ‘How will this turn out?’ How will it play out? Their colleague is alive. Chun Yeowun thought they had come to rescue him. If they planned on abandoning him, they would have never come there after hearing the request. Chun Yeowun’s guess was correct. Wheeing! The Time Jet lowered its altitude and descended a little more. It seemed like the jet was trying to keep a safe distance between itself and the ground so they could escape whenever the rescue was done. They came down 70 feet. Papapak! As they got closer to the ground, the wind became strong, and the sand began to blow out. Clang! Wheeing! What seemed like an entrance to the side opened up on the Time Jet. At the square entrance stood three people. Looking at the curves of their suits, it looked like it was two men and one woman. Behind them, a woman with a voluptuous body and breasts, which didn’t go well with the suit, stood and instructed them something. [Because it could be dangerous. As soon as the survivors are tied to the wires, you three will climb straight in. We will be leaving right away. Until then, check the borders and be thorough.] [Roger.] As the entrance opened, the wind was too strong, so they had to talk in their standard frequency. Upon receiving the order, they jumped down from the Time Jet. Rumble! Shoo! The woman wrapped a wire around her arm and jumped off, while the other two men slowly landed on the ground with particles scattering from their suits. The woman of the Dead Rose Special Forces checked the condition of the survivor, Therese, lying on the floor. [This!] [What is it? Anna.] [Both the eyes… euk!] The member called Anna was terrified as she saw Therese without eyes. The two men too frowned at the sight of the brutality. It was natural that they felt repulsed looking at Therese. [How the hell could that monster martial artist completely annihilate everyone and make the lone survivor look like this?] They judged that the man in the video was skilled. A monster who could block bullets. [I heard that Keanu is a veteran who fought in many battles, but for us to not find his body. Ha…] Anna, who barely managed to calm herself, tried to wrap a wire around Therese’s body. However, the man who was supposed to be unconscious was groaning something. “Eup! Eupeupeuep!” He was shivering and moving. [Something seems strange.] One of the men reached out to Therese’s body. A red light flowed from his suit’s palm and scanned the body. [The flow of blood has been blocked with energy.] [Wait. I heard about this. A technique that martial artists use to block the blood with energy.] She pulled out something like a syringe from a box that was marked with a red cross on her waist. She opened it and then put it in Therese’s neck. Puck! The blue drug in the syringe entered his bloodstream. [Once the regenerative nano machine is injected, the blood flow will return to normal. I’ll tie him to the wire.] [I’ll provide cover.] The two men covered while the one called Anna was trying to tie the wire on Therese’s body. Swoosh! Thirty small drones came from the suit of one operator, all aiming for their surroundings. The other man looked around, holding a gun in one hand and the other palm stretched out. Clip! Thanks to that, the wire was tied around Therese’s body. Tak! Tak! Anna pulled the wire to check it and then sent a message to the Time Jet. [Time Jet. The survivor has been immobilized on the wire. Now pu…] Pak! Just then, someone grabbed her wrist. “KUAAKKK!!” For a moment, she screamed, startled, but it was just Therese who grabbed her wrist. He was unable to move until a second back because his blood flow had been suppressed, but now he grabbed onto her despite his trembling hand. “… t… h… th… way…!” They couldn’t hear well because of the wind. So Anna gave the order to her AI suit to raise Therese’s voice. And, “This is a trap!! Run away quickly!” [Trap?] [Anna, what is he…] It was the moment the male member, who was on alert, turned and asked. The drones that were surrounding the boundary with the panel system started firing bullets in a certain direction at once. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! [Ah!] From their suits, they could see a person running with great speed. And shockingly, the person didn’t seem to be even a little fazed by the bullets, Chachachang! Every bullet seemed to be cut down with a sword. [No, that’s ridiculous!] All three of them were shocked. It was Chun Yeowun who was moving, with his long black hair fluttering. It was the face they saw in the video. [H-He’s the one!] [Panel! Intercept!] Swoosh! When the man controlling the drones came forward and gave orders, the drones that were shooting in one direction spread out and shot at Chun Yeowun. But, “This is what it looks like.” Chun yeowun reached out to the drones which were about to spread out. Then, as if the drones’ movement was restricted, they all stopped mid-air. [What? The drones stopped?] [What went wrong?] [I-I don’t know. The panel isn’t, why is this happenin…] It was then, Chun Yeowun pushed his hand forward. The drones, which had stopped, soon flew towards the man who was operating them. [W-What?] Panicked, the man stretched out his hand. Psuh! Something like energy fired from the palm in a straight beam, which shot down the drone. But the other drones were moving too fast. He could only shoot down 6 drones. Papapak! “Ackkk! Stop! Get off!” As the drones were getting close, some of them stuck to the man’s body. He panicked as he tried to remove them and run. He released a charge from his suit, but to no avail. Chun Yeowun clasped his palms, It was then, Kwakwakwang! “Ku…” The drones moved, and the attached ones exploded. With a brief scream, the man’s body was engulfed in the explosion. “This!” Tak! At that moment, the other man who was close by put his hand on the ground. And, Rumble! Stones began to rise, creating a barrier that absorbed the aftermath of the explosion. ‘Huh?’ Chun Yeowun’s eyes lit up. Because of some energy from the man’s hand, stones rose. ‘It’s different from internal energy.’ It was a different kind of energy from internal energy or qi. Contrary to his reaction, the other two were confused. Anna hurriedly sent them a message. [Time Jet! Now! The enemy has appeared! Hurry up and pull the wire!] [What? Shit! I get it.] Wheeing! Immediately the wire was pulled. Therese’s body was about to float up. The voice of the Dead Rose Special Forces captain, Luis, spoke. [You guys should come up! We will raise the altitude!] [Roger!] Swoosh! As the captain said, the Time Jet slowly increased its altitude. They also tried to escape by switching their suits to flight mode. [Anna! I will cover you, so you fly first!] The man turned and then raised his hands. Dozens of stones from the floor rose and covered them. ‘If it’s Martin’s superpower, he’ll be able to defend himself.’ Along with Luis, Martin held superpowers which specialized in defense. His limit wasn’t known, but Anna thought that he could hold his ground. [Understood!] Anna nodded and tried to soar into the sky. It was then, Puck! [Kuak!] Swoosh! Thud! Martin, who was slowly following her, suddenly screamed, making her look down. [M-Martinnnn!] Shocked, she looked at the fallen body of Martin, who was attacked. Chun Yeowun held out his arms as if he was aiming at the two people who were moving. In the air between them, something like an opaque sword was floating. Creep! ‘T-That is…’ It was the man’s unknown power they saw in the video. ‘I need to run!’ Frightened by the fact that she could die along with the survivor, Anna tried to get on the Time Jet right away by increasing the output of the flight mode. That was when something caught her eyes. Kekekei! The Time Jet, which was trying to increase its altitude with the help of its thrusters, was unable to go up. Instead, it was coming down, little by little. [What? Why is it dropping?] [I-I don’t know! It seems like something strong is pulling the aircraft down.] Anna could hear the conversation from inside the Time Jet. “N… No way!” Confused, she turned her head and looked down again. Chun Yeowun’s hands seemed like they were pulling something down. ‘!!!’ Anna was startled by the unbelievable power this man had. Chapter 482 - Revise/Battle (3) Chun Yeowum, who held out one hand and pulled the Time Jet with unimaginable power, was like a Demon God. As he absorbed all five spirit beast cores, Chun Yeowun’s internal energy was exploding, and he, who reached the Heavenly Master Level, turned into a being who surpassed the spirit beasts. Of course, even if it wasn’t a martial artist, they would be shocked. ‘Is-Is he actually pulling down the Time Jet? I was definitely told that he practiced martial arts… but this is something which can only be done after reaching the highest level of telekinesis!’ It was completely different from the martial arts they knew. It was so close to telekinesis. Anna’s face, which was covered with the suit’s helmet, had turned white and tense. Kiririrk! The altitude of the Time Jet, which was trying to move up, kept lowering. No one knew what was even happening. [Noooo!] Anna pulled out her m320 gun, which was on her back, and fired ultravibrating bullets at Chun Yeowun. She had to stop him at all costs. Bang! Bang! Bang! Chun Yeowun gently moved his left hand as if he was holding a sword. Then an invisible sword floating in the air suddenly generated and cut down the incoming bullets. Chachachang! ‘No, this can’t be!’ The bullets they were using had brought victory to them during the Great Gate. And they didn’t work on this man. That was when Anna heard what was happening inside the Time Jet. [Damn it! Raise the output to level 7!] [Sorry? Unless we reach the final level of…] [Are we in a position to follow the rules! Hurry!] [Understood!] As soon the orders fell, the light particles which were being pushed out from the Time Jet’s thrusters grew stronger. Swoosh! As the particles grew stronger, the pressure it gave off increased. Anna, who hadn’t yet boarded the jet, was unable to maintain her balance. [Ahhh! Ca-Captain!] [Anna. Be patient! We will just shake off the power that’s holding us down…] The output of the jet became stronger, and its altitude, which was descending, began to rise. ‘This!’ Chun Yeowun looked annoyed. As the force grew, the Time Jet pulled up stronger, and it was becoming difficult to pull it down. It was natural. Since the power that was only supposed to be used at high altitudes was being used near the ground. ‘I was really trying not to damage it.’ Chun Yeowun carefully handled his energy for the purpose of stealing the Time Jet. But he couldn’t let it escape. Chun Yeowun released the hand which was controlling the sword and reached out to the jet. Meanwhile, Swoosh! [Captain! We are good! The Time Jet is going up!] Anna cheered as the Time Jet kept rising, despite the unbalanced output. But the joy didn’t last long. Jerk! Despite the increase in force, the Time Jet suddenly lowered. [The engine of the jet!] A horrifying sound escaped from the Time Jet’s communication device. Extremely cold energy rose in the central part of the jet, freezing the engine and disrupting air circulation. Since this was a jet that could move through space and time, the cold wouldn’t stop it, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t temporarily affected. Swoosh! As the cold resulted in a decrease in output, the Time Jet was pulled down again. [No… way…!] Anna’s eyes filled with despair. It was indescribable how they felt to be taken down by one man who is supposed to be nothing in front of them. ‘Are two units of the Special Forces not enough?’ They aren’t. Even if all the units of the Special Forces came, Anna wondered what they could even do against this monster. Rather, it would be a situation where they would only have a slight chance if the unit near the Great Gate was present. The units would have to forget about their lives and move with the determination to kill this monster at any cost. At that moment, she heard the voice of Dead Rose Special Forces captain, Luis. [No. There is no other way.] [Sorry?] [I will stop that monster, recover the engine, and move. Tell my family that I love them.] [Captain! No! Instead…] Before she could even finish her words, Luis appeared at the entrance of the jet. When the red uniform which was revealing her breasts took the form of a suit, she jumped down. Tak! [Captain!] [Enough! Get in there!] Luis, who went down at high speed, reached out to Chun Yeowun. As he was concentrating on bringing the jet down, Chun Yeowun tried to deal with the woman with an invisible sword. It was then he noticed that a bright light rose from her back and took the form of wings, or roses. ‘What is that?’ Luis stretched her hand towards Chun Yeowun. Fully bloomed roses, their petals flew around in all directions and rushed towards Chun Yeowun. Swoosh! [Die!] Dozens of small shining petals fell. Chun Yeowun tried to attack, but he could only block them with an invisible sword. Papapapang! [I did it! Hurry!] Anna bit her lip at the message she got from the captain. Messing around like that would only irritate the monster and make Luis’s sacrifice meaningless. [Captain! I’ll send a signal. If you can escape, come up right away!] With those words, Anna flew to the entrance of the Time Jet with her suit in flight mode. The wire was pulled up, and Therese, the only survivor, made it inside the jet. After confirming that Anna entered, Luis turned her head. ‘Enough. This is enough.’ As a captain, it was her duty to save all of her subordinates. All that remained was to stop the man who was pulling down the Time Jet. Seeing Chun Yeowun in person, she clicked her tongue. Plasma Petal, her superpower, didn’t even touch his hair. ‘Damn it! Does this mean he can do that while pulling the Time Jet?’ He really was a monster. A person who would never fall, even when compared to the strongest people of Luis’s era. There was no way she could kill the man with her own power. ‘I need to hold on until the engine is restored!’ She created more petals and directed them towards Chun Yeowun. Swoosh! This was the first time since the Great Gate that she was using her petals. She hoped that the man would fall with one strike, but the opaque sword he used flew through the air and blocked the petals. ‘I can at least make sure he doesn’t move.’ She wasn’t sure how long it would last, but she knew it could divert him for at least 10 minutes. If not 10 minutes, maybe longer, but that was all. If she gave the man too much time, she could get hit. Gigigigk! ‘Ah!’ Her ears heard the sound of the jet moving little by little. The frozen engine seemed to have thawed. All she had to do was be a little more patient. ‘Thank goodness. Still, he can only use one of those energy swords, so…!?’ Luis’s pupils trembled. She was unaware of the fact that she had been surrounded by six invisible swords. “T… this…” Dealing with one by itself was impossible for her. ‘Damn it!’ Her face turned pale. Chun Yeowun, who looked at her, mumbled in a cold voice. “I don’t like killing women, but I can’t let you leave if you are at this level.” As soon as he said that, the invisible swords pierced the body of Luis, who jumped into the air. Push! “Kyaaak!” Luis screamed at the pain of her suit and flesh being pierced. As her concentration shattered due to the sudden pain, the plasma petals that she had been controlling slowly scattered away, disappearing. [Can’t… maintain…. Fli…ght…mode…] Static! The voice of the suit’s AI was cut off as the main chip was damaged. The particles around the suit disappeared, and her body fell to the ground. Swoosh! Thud! “Kuak!” The helmet opened as she was coughing up a huge amount of blood. She could feel death coming for her. Every corner of her body was turning cold, and her conscious mind was losing its rationality. ‘Esc…ape…quic…kly!’ She had lost hope for herself. The only thing she wanted was the Time Jet to escape until she heard something. [Kyaaaak!] The scream of Anna. [Wh-What!] Bang! Bang! Bang! Thud! The sounds of gunfire, as if there was a clash within the jet. ‘!?’ She couldn’t understand what was happening inside. Although her vision was blurred, she could see the monster on the ground and the Time Jet floating. [W-Who are you? How did you come into the Time Je… kuk!] A scream. Then the voice could no longer be heard. A small, familiar voice was heard over the communication device from Anna. [… start the time jet with these coordinates. Hurry.] ‘W…ho… is… that…’ Shhh! She tried to hear more, but nothing came out. Dead Rose Special Forces captain Luis, whose pupils lost focus, stopped breathing. ‘!!!’ Chun Yeowun’s eyes narrowed. He too heard the voices which came out from Luis’s device. Nano had the ability to eavesdrop. Someone had broken into the Time Jet. Without Chun Yeowun knowing it. There was only one person at Chun Yeowun’s level who could do that. ‘Blade God!’ Woong! At that time, Chun Yeowun, who was holding the Time Jet down, was interrupted by a massive wave of energy. With that, the Time Jet’s altitude rose, and the thawing of the engine was complete. Kiiik! The entrance of the Time Jet closed. At the same time, the particles ejected from the thrusters became stronger and soared into the sky at great speed. Swoosh! ‘Who said you could touch my thing!’ Chun Yeowun flew up. His body, soaring upwards, was equipped with the Gatelinium Suit. Chachacha! With particles being released from the suit’s hands and feet, he quickly ascended. ‘I need to catch him.’ The speed at which the Time Jet flew was amazing. Little by little, it became smaller. At that time, Nano said something. [Enabling booster mode.] ‘Booster mode?’ It was then, something like a thruster generated from the back of the Nano Suit, and the force increased. Woosh! ‘Ahh!’ Chun Yeowun flew into the sky. A normal suit would have burned down with the force at which he moved, but Chun Yeowun’s suit was made of Gatelinium, which made it possible. The shape of the Time Jet, which was moving away, became bigger. Chapter 483 - Day of the Future Chapter 483: Day of the Future Inside the Time Jet was a man with thick eyebrows and a strong smile on his face. He was the Blade God. After being wounded by Chun Yeowun, he hid, but then he appeared and hijacked the Time Jet. He had been numb for years, yet the corners of his mouth raised as he was unable to hide his joy. ‘Luck is with me.’ He was the one who had spent an entire night trying to drive away the vicious energy that was burrowing within his heart and body. He had absorbed the five spirit beasts’ cores, gaining immortal life, so as soon as he released that black energy, he managed to recover his body in less than half an hour. One-third of his body was destroyed, but now it’s back to normal. ‘I came here to deal with that demon before he completely absorbed the energy.’ The Blade God couldn’t let Chun Yeowun become any stronger. The Blade God was pushed into a crisis before Chun Yeowun even stepped into the Heavenly Master Level. He thought that all his plans to change the past would be destroyed if Chun Yeowun wasn’t dealt with quickly. ‘Time Jet!’ He never thought that a Time Jet would come to this era. From then on, the Blade God quickly revised his plan. Upon arriving there, he could see that Chun Yeowun had reached his level, the level he feared. Which meant that the battle between immortals would unfold. If both were immortals and on the same level, the battle would be difficult. ‘There’s a Time Jet. Do I need to fight the Demon God head-on? In the beginning, yes, but now, why not go back in time before he was born and then get rid of him.’ The thought of destroying someone who could be equal to him. There was no need for him to fight at all. [The jet has crossed the stratosphere.] The Time Jet’s AI informed them how much the aircraft had risen. He never tested it before, but at that height, he thought it would be difficult for the opponent to keep up whether they had a Nano Suit or walked on air. “The engine must have returned to normal as we climbed up this much… come on, move to those space-time coordinates.” The Blade God threatened Allen, a member of the Dead Rose Special Forces, who was sitting in the cockpit. Allen’s face was covered in blood as he bit his lip. He was the one who controlled the ship, and his life was threatened when this enemy had entered the ship and asked him to go to specific space-time coordinates. ‘Kuek! What is all this?’ He knew that the man threatening him was a monster. He killed Anna with just a snap of his fingers and cut Allen’s left arm off. The suit stopped the bleeding, but it was still throbbing. Behind him, the Blade God spoke in a spiteful voice. “If you don’t want to lose another arm, move quickly through space…” It was then, Beep! Beep! Beep! [The hanger on the right side of the aircraft has been opened. An unidentified entry!] ‘!?’ The warning from the Time Jet’s AI made the Blade God narrow his eyes. He was convinced that it would be impossible to get into the Time Jet, which crossed the stratosphere. Then, in his ears, he heard walking. Step! Step! The sound of metal ringing. The Blade God slowly turned around. There, he saw Chun Yeowun holding the Sky Demon Sword. “I knew it was you.” Intense energy flowed out of Chun Yeowun. “Demon God!” The hateful voice of the Blade God. His eyes were dyed with extreme tension. ‘… if you look closely, I’m sure. The Demon God has entered the same realm as me.’ This would be a battle that can’t be won or lost. The problem was if they competed in the Time Jet, it would break. If that happened, the Blade God would lose his chance to head back to the past. ‘There is one way. I need to drive him out.’ There might be some risk and damage to the jet, but if that meant sending Chun Yeowun away, he liked taking that chance. However, something he didn’t expect happened. Woong! [Space time movement to unspecified coordinates.] “What?” Thu-thud! A strong shock, which shook the balance of the Blade God and Chun Yeowun. Unlike the time pack, the Time Jet was an aircraft that traveled through space and time at a speed that exceeded the speed of light, so one had to be seated before the time of departure. Rumble! As Chun Yeowun and the Blade God were barely maintaining their balance with that speed, Allen, who was in the cockpit, shouted. “Kukuk, do you think I will do whatever you monsters ask me to do! We will wander through space and time for the rest of your lives and die!” With those words, Allen fired the gun which was on the board of the cockpit. Tatata! Crackle! [Da…mage… to… the… main… system…] The Time Jet’s AI was cut off. The main system was really damaged, so the LED lights that were illuminating the jet’s inside didn’t stop flickering. Rumble! The jet, which had entered space and time, shook. At that rate, no one knew where the Time Jet would stop. “How dare you!” The Blade God sneered with anger and tried to pull Allen close to him. But before that could happen, Allen’s actions were quick. Bang! Allen put the gun in his mouth and fired. With a hold in the back of his head, his limp body fell to the floor of the jet. The only pilot of the Time Jet was dead. “Ahhhhh!” As if his anger had reached its peak, the Blade God shouted and looked at Chun Yeowun, who still had a calm face. “Phew, nothing can be done. Demon God. Let’s stop this for now. If we fight in this kind of situation, we’ll end up losing every…” Chachachang! The Blade God hurriedly brought out his sword to block Chun Yeowun’s black sword. Looking at Chun Yeowun, he asked with a bewildered expression. “Demon God! What is this?” “Stop with the bullshit. There will be no truce with you.” “You!….” The Blade God spoke while grunting through his teeth. “In this situation, immortality doesn’t work! Do you think that both of us dying is a light matter? If the jet breaks down and it’s swept away by space and time, our bodies will disappear…” “Are you that afraid of dying?” “Huh?” “You are afraid of death despite living this long. That’s funny.” The eyes of Chun Yeowun, who said that, were twinkling. It felt like something essential had happened to the man. The Blade God thought something must have happened as he became immortal after reaching the Heavenly Master Level. However, in the face of crisis, the Blade God asked for a ceasefire with his enemy, Chun Yeowun, to save his own life. ‘I am afraid of death? Me? Me, from the past and the future, who is like a god is scared of death?’ At that moment, his composure was broken. He was no longer indifferent. The Blade God’s emotional barriers burst as he yelled at Chun Yeowun. “You bastard! Who do you think you are to judge me? In the face of death, the end, you talk as if you are differe…” It was then, Slash! ‘!?’ The Blade God’s eyes went wide. He slowly lowered his head and looked down at his body. A black line starting from his right shoulder ran across his abdomen until his right thigh. Thud! Thud! Thud! The fingers of the Blade God’s severed right hand fell to the ground. Thick red blood flowed out from the cut parts. Drop! Drop! “H… how?” He couldn’t understand. He was blocking Chun Yeowun’s sword with the Unification of the Blade, the highest blade technique. It was the best way he could come up with. However, Chun Yeowun had cut down that technique with his sword. “Non-existent Sky Demon Sword.” “Non-existent… Sky Demon Sword?” Tremble. It felt like his body was being split open and would fall at any moment. Cold sweat ran down his face. Drip! Something felt different. The dark energy from Chun Yeowun, which he had faced before, was ferocious, but now it seemed like actual darkness as if he was entering the abyss. It was like being eaten by darkness. ‘I… I… need… to.’ He tried to use the energy of the five spirits beasts in his body to heal himself. The fact that the cut was tearing his body meant that he had to heal himself quickly. But, “H… how?” The cut didn’t heal. From then, it was like he was waiting for his body to not fall down. ‘What should I do? If regeneration doesn’t work… should I cut the part off again?’ In an instant, something occurred in the Blade God’s mind. However, the question was would Chun Yeowun give him the time. He was confused. Tututu! And then, something like a gas was leaking out. As if it wasn’t enough that the Non-existent Sky Demon Sword had slashed the Blade God’s body, its power ended up cutting the jet too. Crack! The speed at which they were moving was so terrifying that the crack which formed was about to grow bigger. “Cough… cough… you, are you really planning on dying together?” With a pale face, the Blade God asked. At the rate the jet tore, not just him, but even Chun Yeowun would die. With a cold voice, Chun Yeowun spoke. “Only you.” “What?” Chun Yeowun kicked the Blade God’s body. Puck! “Kuck!” Thud! At that moment, the body of the Blade God, which barely stood together, split from the shoulder to the thigh and was dragged to where the hole had formed. Swoosh! “Nooo!” The Blade God tried to stop one part of his body from being swept away by the vacuum of space and time. However, the Sky Demon Energy which had penetrated into his body had already spread. Throb! Throb! ‘Ack! I am immortal! Immortal!!’ He was going crazy. When his internal energy wasn’t working properly, the Blade God held whatever he could with his left hand and pulled himself into the jet. Woong! “Demon God!!!” The Blade God kept cursing and yelling out for Chun Yeowun. Seeing that side of the Blade God, Chun Yeowun spoke in his usual blunt voice. “You have lived enough. Die.” ‘H-He!’ Chun Yeowun drew his Sky Demon Sword. Slash! “Kuck!” This time he cut his throat. Blood gushed out from the Blade God’s neck. Drip! The Blade God, who was wanting to say something, fell backwards. Swoosh! And the body of the Blade God, which was holding onto the rail near the hole, got sucked away. Swoosh! The head and body of the Blade God were swept away by the space and time torrent and disappeared. Even the immortal body was nothing but dust in front of the great flow of space and time. ‘Done!’ The hole inside the jet was becoming bigger, and Chun Yeowun reached it. As usual with yin, ice qi began to form and cover it. Jjjkkk! Bang! The power of space and time, which was sucking in the contents of the jet, was blocked by the ice. However, the pressure was so strong that the ice had to be thickened. ‘This is just a temporary solution.’ Jjkk! Chun Yeowun released more ice qi to make sure that the walls near the hole were frozen too. He didn’t know the details, but he had to hurry. Chun Yeowun ran to the cockpit. ‘Nano. Can you hack this and get me out of here safely.’ [There is damage to the main board, so it may be difficult to adjust with hacking.] ‘You have to do something. Or we’ll both die.’ [Will try hacking. Please place your palm on the cockpit board.] ‘Okay!’ Chun Yeowun hastily placed his right palm on the board. The glove of the Nano Suit was on his right hand, and a line of light came out of it and penetrated into the broken board. [Entering the back up system.] Jjakkk! Along with Nano’s voice, Chun Yeowun’s ears could pick up the ice cracking. It could be dangerous if he didn’t hurry. He was waiting with impatient eyes when the LED lights of the Time Jet, which had flickered continuously, came on. Whoong! Beep! Beep! At the same time, the buttons on the main board of the cockpit also lit up. Some didn’t come on, but it seemed like everything was working normally. ‘Nano? Done?’ [It seems that the coordinate setting device has been damaged, so we will have to crash land out of the space and time flow.] ‘What are you saying?’ [Means to land in a different space and time than the user’s.] Chun Yeowun’s face hardened. As Nano said that, it meant that he could enter a time that he had no idea about. Jjkkk! The sound of cracking ice could be heard. They were out of time. At this rate, the jet would break apart. ‘Mun Ku.’ At that moment, in Chun Yeowun’s mind, he saw an image of Mun Ku with a child. If he died, he would never get to see them again. Biting his lip, Chun Yeowun determined, ordered Nano. “Go ahead!” [Yes. Escaping the flow of space and time.] Goo! As soon as Nano finished speaking, The Time Jet shook. The space flow was made up of five different colored lines that could be seen through the front glass of the cockpit. For a second, the Time Jet escaped. Rumble! Strong pressure rose, just like it did when the jet entered the flow. “Kuak!” Chun Yeowun grabbed the handle on the cockpit board and held onto it. If he let go of the main board, the connection Nano had with the jet would break. Clank! Clank! He tried not to move as much as possible, and the space outside the window made of five colors changed. It was then. Jjjkkk! They exited the flow, and the ice broke. At the same time, Chun Yeowun’s body, which was holding the board, was sucked out of the jet with tremendous force. Pang! “Uakk!” [Opening Gatelinium Nano Suit!] Chachacha! The Nano Suit opened up around Chun Yeowun’s body. He didn’t even realize that the suit had unfolded, but the suit seemed red. And in some parts, it was a mixture of blue. ‘Where am I?’ [In the mesosphere at an altitude of 60km.] Higher than the stratosphere. The same area that the Time Jet had to be to enter the space and time flow. ‘Air?’ He decided to go back to the Time Jet. However, the Time Jet, which was becoming small as he was moving down, exploded. Bang! ‘This!’ If Chun Yeowun was a little late, he would have died in the explosion. He had no choice but to go down now. ‘Nano, flight mode.’ [Switching to flight mode.] Chun Yeowun’s body quickly moved towards land. The outer part of the Nano Suit, which was dyed red, slowly returned to its original color as he got closer to land. Swoosh! How long was it? Chun Yeowun could finally see land. However, it wasn’t the land of Jianghu which was full of greenery. [Altitude 15km.] [Altitude 14.5km.] [Altitude 13km.] As he descended, he saw large buildings. ‘What… the hell?’ There were grasses and mountains around. There were trees, but it was more like a grey world. Buildings which had square roofs, and not tiled houses, Chun Yeowun’s body was getting close to the ground. Eventually, [Altitude 300m.] Upon entering that point, Chun Yeowun descended onto a huge building. Chun Yeowun’s eyes widened at the transparent walls the building had. He was moving quickly, but he could see a lot of people inside the transparent walls. [Will land soon, altitude of 100m.] Thud! Chun Yeowun’s body soon landed on the dark grey ground. He stood up, straightening himself. Chachacha! The helmet of the Nano Suit lifted up as he saw the new world, which was surrounded by buildings. This wasn’t the world he knew. Woong! “A-A man fell from above!” “It looked like he fell from the building?” “Now! A superhero landing? Are they filming for the Man of Steel?” People in clothes which he had never seen before were looking at Chun Yeowun, who was equally shocked. He was wary of their sudden appearance. ‘Where is this?’ As he looked around with confused eyes, Nano answered him. [Detected Wi-Fi signal. The age of the coordinates is… AD. Year. 2069.02.19
