His deeper meaning is to take care of at least one more higher level Black Goblin while they are taking on the lower level ones that they can handle. Like an arrow penetrating black hail, Cha Jun Sung killed Black Goblins as he made his way to the head Black Goblin. He needs to kill the general. Lifers did not see Cha Jun Sung properly because they are surrounded by lower level Black Goblins. They just know that something has appeared.
“It’s the 4th. The 4th.”
This is the 4th time he is helping someone else’s mission since he entered Path of Blood. He has not even completed 1% of his own, and is just helping others.
He is grumbling but he does not have complaints. Though he is acting foolishly, he cannot just pass by when he can rescue people.
It is not anything difficult, or anything that he needs to risk his life for.
“I’ll send you in one blow.”
Cha Jun Sung puts Hades away. Hades’ scabbard is thick, sturdy, and configured in various and complicated machinery.
There is no choice if he is to withstand the shock from the blow. Additionally, there are 2 energy cores that charge Hades’ booster inside the scabbard.
Bang!
The Overbooter’s power made Cha Jun Sung leave his footprint on the ground and fly right before the Black Goblin general. He pulled out Hades as he went flying.
He brandished it in the opposite direction he did when he killed Metal Giant. It is a normal drawing. He cut diagonally from the crotch to armpit.
[You have earned 16 million points and 9.6 million achievement points.]
‘Nice.’
Cha Jun Sung quietly felt delighted. It could be assumed that he can gather up points quickly if he only hunts level 7s, but this is not the case because it is hard to come across them.
Finding a level 7 by chance like this is like a bonus.
Inattention brings misfortune. The Black Goblin general was caught off guard. If it had known that Cha Jun Sung was this strong, it may have been able to last a little longer.
It had been arrogant thinking that this world is its world, but fell under an unexpected attack.
Kyak!
When the Black Goblin general died so easily, the other Black Goblins grow fearful and scatter. For mutants, even when there are a lot of them, they back down if they lose momentum.
They choose dying over running away if their pride is strong, but it is more common for mutants under level 7 to be geared more toward their survival instincts than they are to their pride.
Black Goblins retreat.
They did not choose anywhere near Cha Jun Sung as their withdrawal route. They ran away in the opposite direction in whatever way they could.
The Lifers finally discovered Cha Jun Sung once the Black Goblins left. They cannot see his face because of his battle suit. There is no reason for his identity to be revealed unless he tells them either. They are just passing by each other. He will just greet them.
Cha Jun Sung turns off combat mode and walks toward the Lifers.
A fully remodeled battle suit is grand.
It is 2 heads taller than a normal battle suit too. The Lifers gulp when he approaches them.
“Who is in charge?”
“.....”
The atmosphere becomes cold.
The Lifers are grateful that Cha Jun Sung chased away the Black Goblins, but they also felt wary. That is why no one could come forward easily. For him to wander around this hellish place alone, he must be beyond level B. His appearance alone shows that he has fully remodeled his battle suit.
“Odin, we’re looking for the hidden picture.”
[Behavior analysis based on heart rate, pulse rate, breathing rate... Analysis complete.]
[7 Lifers are showing similar reactions. They share responsibilities, which means there is a high probability that they are cadres. I will mark them.]
Battle suit functions are infinite.
In Cha Jun Sung’s view, the hologram marks the 7 Lifers in charge in a different color.
Zing!
Lasers in red light point to 7 people. They are speechless at the performance of this battle suit that is incomparable to their own.
“Why are you hiding? You haven’t done anything wrong to me.”
“Well.....”
The people in charge cannot explain why either and stutter. Cha Jun Sung looks at the 7 people and speaks as though he does not care.
“You all. What do you think you’re doing entering a level B mission as level C Lifers?”
“Excuse me?”
“Are you a suicide squad? You’re people who have gone through a lot of missions, but thought to skip difficulty levels. I’m sure you weren’t putting your faith in the fact that you have 1000 people with you?”
It does not hurt to try. He spoke as the words came out.
Oy!
They are not saying anything. They must have put their faith in numbers. Cha Jun Sung puts his head in his hand. He was of course holding his helmet, but the action showed what he was feeling.
“Why do you think the Black Goblin general watched from far away? He was playing with you because he knew that he could kill you at any time.”
Cha Jun Sung revealed their mistake.
The Lifers could not refute what he is saying. He is saying such true things that it is almost cruel. A level 7 is so strong that it can create chaos even while it is surrounded by level B Lifers. Level C Lifers are just snacks.
“How many people died?”
“... I believe at least 600 people died.”
Those in charge are pressured by Cha Jun Sung’s vigor, and respond.
Given they were a full raid, more than half died. Many will have died while looking for the Black Goblins as well. If he had not helped them, they would all have been killed.
“Keep your comrades’ deaths in your hearts. The result of recklessness is perdition.”
Cha Jun Sung said everything he needed to and turned his body. They should have understood with this much, and they were speechless with the gruesome reality of what they did when they entered with spirit.
They need to thank him for saving their lives, but they cannot speak. So they just watched Cha Jun Sung as he disappeared. Cha Jun Sung did not flaunt it either because it is not something he did in order to get rewarded. The person who saved and those who were saved can just go on their separate ways.
“Master, the mission...”
“We’re quitting.”
The person called master declared that they are quitting. The mission goal is annihilation. The mission became much easier with the Black Goblin general’s death, but the level 6 Black Goblins are burdensome for them as well. He had thought they would be able to complete the mission with 1000 people, but realized they have no chance after coming face to face with them.
“Is he a level B Lifer?”
“I know a World Federation Lifer, and his battle suit doesn’t look like that. I think that’s gone through some more remodeling.”
There is a limit in the range of remodeling they can do by store level. If they are the same level, the shape would be similar to other people’s whether that is the World Federation. Cha Jun Sung’s is a full remodeling, but a level C Lifer cannot evaluate that with level C standards.
“Could he be?”
“Is there someone you have in mind?”
“It’s been 1 year since level A missions were opened up. Could he be that person?”
“That person? What! No way!”
“He’s just 1 person, but he is an existing Lifer. The probability of meeting him is low, but it isn’t impossible. And his combat ability on top of that!”
His handiwork in getting through all of those Black Goblins to split the general into two pieces with just 1 blow.
He surpassed what is possible according to level B standards.
A level A Lifer was born about 1 year ago, and they are guessing that is him.
“Recklessness leads to perdition.....”
The person in charge thinks back to what Cha Jun Sung said. He gained a new life in this vast land. It is the probability being hit by lightning on a clear day. They had been lucky.
But if there is a bright side, there is also a dark side.
Far away from these Lifers, there are other Lifers caught in terribly awful luck.
