Chapter 222
Episode 222
[From what I can see, the toxicity is not normal?]
Yongyong said while watching me order from Mandeuk. It is said that the poison of the Heavenly Demon Armor is not the usual form and is a complex poison that is a mixture of the Force and the poison of monsters and other poisons from the monsters that the Heavenly Demon Armor has eaten.
It is so complex and messy that it is said that it is amazing that Mandokbulchim deciphered it in 10 seconds.
“I know Mandokbulchim worked hard.”
[But is that what you ordered?]
“Because you become conceited. “I need more whipping.”
[What kind of logic is this?]
“If you just do it, everything will work out.”
[Is that the end?]
“Uh.”
Yongyong makes an absurd expression at my words.
Mandokbulchim is good at it. Because I was able to detoxify a poison that corrodes even humans in 10 seconds. However, from the standpoint of generous support, isn’t it natural to expect better results?
[It would take a lot of force to decipher it.]
“Since when did I become obsessed with the amount of force? Is that so? “I also have the heart of the monster you gave me.”
[Oh, that’s right.]
Yongyong’s point was nothing more than pointing out my strengths. I already had the heart of a two-horned monster as an auxiliary battery, and considering the amount of force I had, it didn’t matter if Mandokbulchim used the force as much as he wanted. All you have to do is shorten the time.
If you invest generously, it is natural to expect good results.
However, in reality, you can run away with the results, but you cannot run away from Mandokbulchim.
I took the remaining poison and went outside. There is something left to write about.
“Dog.”
bruise!
The dog saw me and came over.
“eat this.”
bruise?
When the dog saw the poison bottle I held out, it stopped and took a step back. As a quick-witted guy, he sensed that the poison inside was unusual.
You’ve only been eating delicious food, but you’re so full that you’re trying to refuse what the host is giving you?
The body of the dog that made eye contact with mine became stiff.
“Eat.”
Dogs also need to taste poison to get used to it. If you have the monster’s unique poison resistance ability and the poison itself, it can be helpful when hunting the Heavenly Demon Armor.
“Aren’t you eating?”
The dog that was hesitant at my urging came closer. Then, he closed his eyes tightly, broke the bottle, and inhaled the poison.
[This is what you call crying and eating mustard.]
Would you say you are a good owner who trains your pet in advance?
[No one would think that way.]
Yongyong is misleading public opinion.
The dog seemed to resist the poison at first, but soon turned blue and started rolling around on the floor. The poison spreading power of the two-horned monster was greater than expected.
Kiing! Kiing!
“….”
I looked down at that figure quietly. It seems like he’s holding up better than me, probably because he has good poison resistance.
If it had been a human, it would probably have died before it could resist. It won’t be easy even for Berserker, who has an all-powerful, invulnerable ability.
Just because you have 100,000 poisons and no stings doesn’t mean you’re invincible. Time is needed to slow down the spread of the poison, analyze its ingredients, and detoxify it. It is natural that the abilities of a gift vary depending on the level of the gift holder.
If you think about it, you might be able to gauge the level of Berserker with this poison, right?
What woke me up from my lost thoughts was Yongyong’s shout.
[Isn’t that how you die?]
“Monsters don’t die easily.”
[You kill easily.]
“That’s what I forced myself to do.”
The dog was shocked to see me watching quietly.
[Still, he’s subordinate. Weren’t you trying to save it?]
That’s right, the dog won’t die like this anyway.
[How do you know that?]
Because I prepared just enough to not die. If a larger dose had been administered here, the dog would have been at risk.
[Are you really human? It’s a monster disguised as a human, right?]
You thought it was a good idea.
The complexion of the dog, which had fallen to the floor and writhed, gradually returned to its original state. They adapted to the poison and began to suppress it. As expected, as a monster I raised with great care, its ability to adapt to poison was excellent.
Among the monsters I ate as a special meal, there might be one with excellent resistance to poison.
“Are you okay?”
bruise!
The dog woke up with a brave expression. It seems that the spirit has become even stronger after overcoming the poison of the two-horned monster.
Does overcoming a strong poison make you stronger? Should I look for something stronger?
[Is he shaking?]
There must be an aftereffect of the poison.
I said to the dog.
“The monster we will face will emit its poison.”
bruise!
“We will increase the amount over the next few days, so get used to it.”
…bruise!
[Pity.]
Gods and monsters can also feel pity.
[Because it’s definitely not a common form?]
Or not.
Yongyong looked pitiful as he hovered around the dog.
* * *
“The protests are strong.”
Hearing Li Zhenhuo’s words, Yu Hao nodded. The member who died today at the hands of Choi Jun-ho was a high-ranking party official from Hebei Province and was a man of considerable power.
A man who was expected to rise to the highest position in the Northern military government ended his life in vain. The North Korean military leadership, seeing this, strongly opposed Choi Jun-ho’s atrocities.
“Isn’t it funny to see them do that now after calling them out?”
“It was much more extreme than I thought.”
“Once the board is made, it will be beyond imagination. “It’s ridiculous to even complain.”
“But we need them to win.”
“This is something you have to endure if you bring a tiger into your home.”
“Do I have to watch it like this?”
“What if I don’t watch? Should we at least get rid of Choi Jun-ho?”
“….”
Li Zhenhuo couldn’t answer. He also knew that realistically there was nothing he could do about Choi Jun-ho.
“The ideal way would be to send them out to hunt monsters as quickly as possible.”
“Even that doesn’t seem easy.”
“yes.”
Currently, Choi Jun-ho was beginning the preparation phase to respond to the Heavenly Demon Armor. There was neither shame nor justification in urging him as he prepared step by step.
However, it was also true that it had to be sent as quickly as possible to suppress internal discontent.
“We have received suggestions from many other countries that they can help.”
“You have to refuse everything.”
“I think the same thing, but on the other hand, it doesn’t seem bad to create an alternative.”
“Let’s watch that force come in and expand its influence? “It won’t be helpful in hunting down monsters, and interference will be done according to interference.”
“I’m worried about that.”
“Don’t be buried by Choi Jun-ho. If you don’t provoke them, they won’t go beyond that line. It would be better to make sure we don’t encounter each other. “Time passes, and Choi Jun-ho will try to achieve what he came for rather than fussing.”
Choi Jun-ho was someone who completely broke away from the calculations of existing politicians.
It was the most dangerous, but at the same time the most certain and reliable means.
Hearing Yu Hao’s words, Li Zhenhuo realized where he was making a mistake.
“All right.”
“Let’s use Choi Jun-ho to go to a higher place once again.”
“yes.”
* * *
Over the next few days, we completed adaptation work to the poison provided by the Northern military government. By gradually increasing the amount, Mandeuk’s detoxification time was reduced and the dog was able to adapt successfully.
It was easy to get used to it because they always gave me more than I asked for.
[Wouldn’t it mean that it would be okay to die from poisoning?]
That could be possible. What’s important is that I finished it easily and didn’t die.
[You were the only person who accepted it that way.]
I wanted to blend in with ordinary people, but I didn’t want to be forced to think that way.
When he met Wei Hao, he announced that he had become accustomed to the poison.
“That terrible poison?”
“It worked because I did it.”
“Huh.”
Yu Hao shook his head, saying that he too had been on the brink of death several times while trying to get used to the poison.
It is possible to overcome it with will, but the will is weak.
“Rather than that, I’d like to know the schedule for what to do.”
Now that I’m used to the poison, do you want me to go hunting?
[Does it seem too rushed?]
I think the same. I don’t really plan on taking any time, but I also don’t plan on making any hasty moves.
“I plan to move on to the next step.”
“What else is there?”
“We’ll have to see how the monster rampages. “I’ll have to go to the city he’s targeting next and see how he moves to gauge it.”
“….”
[So you’re saying you’re going to sacrifice a city and watch over it?]
Yongyong shouts in shock.
Yu Hao’s expression hardened as he realized the meaning of my words.
“why?”
“…It moves much slower than I expected. “I remember you being a bit bolder when dealing with monsters in the past.”
Are you trying to make me run away by scratching me?
One method is trivial.
“That’s what a two-horned monster is. It’s not easy for me to deal with. Should I go back if I’m dissatisfied?”
“No, I made a mistake.”
Yu Hao shook his head.
“Let me know if the monster moves. “We will see what the problem is and then take action to deal with it.”
“I get it.”
“And you did a good job of not letting strange guys hang out around me.”
“If we bump into each other for no reason, we are the ones who lose.”
“I know. “If you act quickly like this, you won’t lose anything, right?”
Although he lost a lot of weight and lost a lot of his roundness, he still behaved well without being sloppy. You’ve been recognizing me since you gave me the missile I wanted as a gift?
Yu Hao’s expression distorted at my praise. I don’t know why they do this even when I praise them.
“Then, this is the end of the monster issue. “Why did you do that?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Why did you omit some of the information made by the Chinese government about the Two-Horned Monster?”
“…We don’t know. “I sent it to you exactly as I received it.”
“really?”
“It’s real.”
Yu Hao managed all his facial expressions and emotions and lied calmly.
[You’re lying.]
I couldn’t fool Shinsu’s eyes. The guy doesn’t know how good of a lie detector Yongyong is.
[Is it now treated as a lie detector?]
That means its ability is amazing.
Even though I praised him, Yongyong grumbled.
“Don’t lie.”
“….”
Yu Hao’s expression hardened and he avoided my gaze. If you’re going to joke about this, do it right.
“What is missing?”
“The direction in which the research was conducted and the goals were revealed, but the means to make it possible were omitted. “Why don’t you share that?”
Two-horned monsters do not occur naturally. There must be nutrients ingested that will give you that incredible strength. The United States was unable to understand that part, and it was also omitted in the information provided by the North Korean military.
The possibility that the guy who suddenly appeared in front of Beijing could have picked up the essence of some divine beast and consumed it is literally zero.
I know and Yu Hao knows that this is the most important part.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
He denied it until the end, so I mentioned it out loud.
“Are you going to pretend not to notice even if this happens to me?”
“….”
“I heard that in China, they used this to develop superhumans.”
I looked at Yu Hao and asked.
“Are you also a superhuman made from this?”
“….”
Yu Hao did not answer.
* * *
Raising the topic to Yu Hao was a step of gaining confidence.
When I was a hematologist, I didn’t keep track of all incidents and accidents in a tight timeline.
However, I remember the big things that happened at the time, the representative examples being Cheon Myeong-guk, who set up a network to catch me, the League’s spy Yoo Joong-ho, and the two-horned monster created in China.
One of the unforgettable memories of extracting human life force from within and making it into a core is because I remember that the Chinese government at the time wanted me to send people to supply it.
[How can people of their own kind commit such heinous acts?] Are
you, the divine beasts, fighting over the essence and blaming humans for this?
[….]
Yongyong’s mouth closed at my point.
Although they say this, it was clear that what the Chinese government did was not normal.
At the time, I was so disgusted with the hematoma that I said everything because I was so close to smashing the head of the guy who suggested it.
“Now that my curiosity has been answered, let’s go and see what it looks like.”
I’m putting in a lot of effort to give you a taste, so I’m sure you won’t disappoint me.
I headed to the city where the Heavenly Demon Armor was headed.
