Episode 139 [End of the Earth. The Beginning of the Sea (2) ]

Guek. Guek.

Toads were running through the streets. I went into the broken window, ran around the room, climbed to the roof, looked at the street, and cried.

Crocodile monsters growled and searched the city. They encountered other monsters along the way, but when the crocodile monsters grabbed their swords, the monsters retreated quietly.

The toads and crocodile monsters that searched the entire city eventually arrived at the port.

The port was filled with rusty containers, with an oil tanker half-sunk and a cargo ship lying on its side.

Guek. Guek.

The toads and crocodile monsters did not stop searching. They searched the containers one by one and destroyed the locked containers.

And they eventually achieved the results they wanted.

Kyung-hoon was found inside a container at the end of the dock.

Guek coop!

The toad raised its voice and shouted until it was shattered by the wrench thrown by Kyung-hoon. But it was already too late.

Kuek! Kuek! Kuek!

The toads all screamed together.

The crocodile monsters started running.

A crocodile monster with only a sword and a crocodile monster with armor all ran to one place.

Hundreds of toads rushed to fill the dock, and the crocodile monsters ran across the dock, blasting away the toads in their way.

The sword of the leading crocodile monster began to glow. As the container got closer, the crocodile monster launched itself into the air.

A monster wearing heavy armor leaped several meters.

The monster raised its sword and fell towards the container.

At that moment,

coo!

The container hanging over the end of the pier tilted and fell into the sea.

with a plop!

The waves rolled and the container floated on the water. However, the container with both doors open was not a floating object.

Bubbling.

The container tilted and began to sink into the water.

Crumbling!

The crocodile monster stabbed into the air and screamed into the air. The crocodile monsters that arrived later also screamed in the same way.

The monsters tore off the armor they were wearing and fell to the ground. The crocodile monster began to change.

The human-shaped limbs returned to the crocodile’s legs and the crocodile’s head turned upward again.

Everyone returned to their crocodile form.

The crocodile monsters did not give up. All the monsters that turned into crocodiles jumped into the sea.

Crocodiles

jumped into the sea and swam toward the sinking container.

The container was tilted and more than half sunken.

First, the alligator climbed onto the container and stuck its head into the open container.

bang!

But the head that was thrust in exploded with the sound of a gunshot.

Weeeeeee!

At the same time, the sound of an engine was heard inside the container. It wasn’t the roaring sound of a gasoline outboard engine.

It was the small rotating sound of an electric motor.

Crocodile monsters hastily clung to the container. But it was too late.

Buaaaaang!

A boat popped out of a container door that rose into the air. It felt like it had been fired from a cannon.

The boat flew over the water for more than ten meters and landed in the sea, creating waves.

Chuaaaagh!

The crocodile monsters jumped into the sea again and tried to follow the boat, but the boat ran out into the sea, shaking off the crocodile monsters’ pursuit.

On a neat boat, Kyung-hoon held out his potato fist towards the monsters.

“It is a prototype of a mana stone electric motor. “It’s hard to think of it as a regular electric motor!”

Kyung-hoon was lucky enough to replace a new boat in a container. He later installed an outboard electric engine on the boat.

Thanks to this, I was discovered, but the clean stomach made me feel refreshed.

-I don’t know if it will be okay.

“It will be fine. “It’s impossible to track him out at sea.”

The crocodiles did not follow us out of the harbor. Now there was only one motorboat running on the sea.

The motorboat headed south. Busan was not far.

*

The crocodile monsters that were floating on the water and looking south went up to the dock again when the boat disappeared.

Clutter.

The sound of bones moving was heard again, and the crocodile monsters stood up.

The monsters wore armor scattered on the floor and held swords.

The monsters did not follow Gyeonghoon south. I just stood there and waited for something.

After a while

, murmur.

The ground began to shake. Old buildings were shaking. Then the buildings collapsed.

And a huge pillar rose between the collapsed buildings.

A huge snake with a dragon’s head. The monarch of Cheonggyecheon. It was an earth dragon.

The crocodile monsters knelt on one knee and bowed their heads like human knights.

The toads that filled the dock bowed their heads in silence.

The earth dragon looked towards the southern sea.

There were no humans in sight.

It lost its nest and, filled with revenge, came down to the far southern lands.

I lost my chance to evolve, got caught up in my instincts, and ran all the way here.

It was the first time I had moved like this since leaving my hometown.

Catching a human with the ability to move through space was not an easy task. But this time you won’t be able to run away like you did then.

The monarch gave up a lot to capture humans. In the end, humans could not escape him unless they escaped this land.

Ugh.

While I was looking at the sea for a while, a huge wild boar walked out from the side of the mountain.

No, it wasn’t a wild boar. At first glance, it looked like a wild boar, but it was too big for a wild boar. The monster’s head passed over a five-story building.

The wild boar-like monster glared at the earth dragon while blowing its breath.

-This is my nest. A monarch who has lost his nest must leave.

The monster’s thoughts were conveyed to the ruler of Cheonggyecheon. The monarch turned his head and looked at the ruler of Ulsan.

-This is my comrade! This is enough for you to endure! Go away!

The monster blew out its breath again. Several cars on the street rolled away due to the breath.

The earth dragon quietly opened his mouth.

The venom flowing from the mouth ran down the chin.

The color of the earth dragon’s eyes gradually turned yellow.

The monster, seeing the earth dragon’s eyes, hesitated and took a step back. The monster’s startled thoughts spread everywhere.

-no way! Has it lost its status?

At that moment, the earth dragon’s body shot forward.

Wow!

Buildings collapsed and cars on the road flew in all directions.

The monster also ran towards the running earth dragon.

Quaaaang!

Monster and monster collided. Dust rose to the sky and buildings collapsed.

The sound echoed to the end of the sea and blood rained down on the city.

The toads and the crocodile people continued to wait for the monarch’s victory while receiving blood rain.

***

Boom!

The sound of air bursting was heard from behind.

Surprised, Kyunghoon looked back.

Smoke was rising from the direction of Ulsan.

“What’s going on? Did an oil tank explode?”

Kyunghoon tilted his head.

-I should have left behind surveillance equipment.

Kyunghoon shook his head.

“If it had been that much of a shock, everything would have been ruined. Anyway, I don’t know what happened, but I did well to get out.”

-I think the same thing.

Kyung-hoon and Eve, unaware of what was happening behind them, were continuing their leisurely voyage.

The waves were calm and the weather was sunny.

Since it wasn’t too far to Busan, we were able to arrive before evening.

“I hope other things work out like they do now.”

-I heard that such expression is not good.

What expression?

-I will definitely return home. This is my family photo. The weather is nice today. When I return, I will propose…

“Hey, hey.”

-It is said on the Internet that it is better to avoid such clichés of death.

Kyung-hoon looked under the boat.

“This is what happens when you say such useless things.”

Before I knew it, the sea under the boat had turned black.

-No way….

A sea monster was coming up from the bottom of the water with its mouth wide open.

Fuaaaaaa!

A huge sea monster jumped out of the water. It was a much bigger monster than the monster I saw in the Han River.

There was no way to avoid it.

The monster swallowed the boat whole and sank back into the sea.

The sea became calm.

The sea off Busan showed its desolate beauty as it always did after humans disappeared.

The sandy beach in front of Haeundae also returned to being a beautiful sandy beach when the people disappeared.

Suddenly, a stream of water surged in the quiet coastal waters. It felt like a whale was spouting water from beneath the surface.

However, the color of the gushing water was different. A stream of blood-red water rose above the surface.

Kuaaaaak!

A moment later, a huge sea monster jumped out of the water. The monster screamed and rolled over the sea.

Busan’s beaches suffered an untimely water crisis. Water poured into the breakwater and the stranded ship was swept away by the water again.

The body of the rampaging monster was covered in blood. The hole was wide open and blood was leaking out.

bang!

Once again, an explosion rang out from within the monster’s body.

This time the back burst open and the spine protruded. The monster eventually rolled all the way to the sandy beach of Haeundae.

The monster that came out of the water eventually stopped moving. The gills were clenched, but the monster with its broken spine could no longer move.

Giant monsters filled the beach instead of bathing guests.

After a while, the gills that were twitching were suddenly heard. And Gyeong-hoon, looking in rags, crawled out of it.

Cough. Cough.

Kyung-hoon spit out a bucket of water.

“Did you survive?”

-Check coordinates. This is Haeundae, Busan.

At Eve’s words, Kyung-hoon lay down on the floor.

“I really almost died.”

The wet sand stuck to his head, but Kyung-hoon didn’t care.

-This is the first time I learned that dimensional movement or spatial movement does not work in the stomach of a monster.

“It never worked.”

Thanks to that, I really had a hard time this time.

Kyung-hoon, who was staring blankly at the sky, opened his mouth again.

“How many times are left?”

-It’s still okay.

“Say clearly!”

-Three…two more are possible.

With Eve’s Mana Stone, she could now only use the Three Swords’ Mana Storm twice.

All remaining attempts were used on the sea monster.

Still, I was glad. Thanks to Samjeonggeom, Gyeonghoon was able to come back alive.

The moment Kyung-hoon and Eve learned that they could not move through dimensions or space after being eaten by a monster, they were speechless.

The monster continued to sink beneath the water, and the boat Kyung-hoon was in was traveling down the esophagus and stomach along with the water.

Still, I was glad. Because it is a monster that swallows its prey whole, it was able to survive when swallowed, and because it was eaten along with the boat, it did not dissolve in the mouth and esophagus.

But once I got to the top, it was over. The monster’s stomach seen from the esophagus looked like a whirlpool of acid.

Gyeong-Hoon stuck the sword in his esophagus and held on to prevent it from reaching his stomach, and immediately took out his Samjeonggeom.

There was no time to think about the number of times left. Whenever he had time, Gyeong-hoon swung his sword and punched a hole in the monster’s body.

In the end, the monster that could not survive came out of the water and died, and Kyung-hoon escaped alive.

Crumbling.

But it seemed the crisis was not over yet.

The howling sounds of monsters could be heard beyond the sandy field. It seemed like he knew the sea monster was dead.

“Oh, I feel like I’m going to die from exhaustion.”

Kyung-hoon got up and sighed.

I was so exhausted that it was difficult to control my body, but I couldn’t survive like this and become prey to monsters again.

Kekekegang.

But there was no monster approaching.

The monsters screamed strangely and ran away from the beach.

Kyunghoon looked ahead with a puzzled expression.

The sun was setting. The abandoned city was turning red in the setting sun.

Footsteps

were heard from the direction of the city.

Kyunghoon blinked. It seemed like he had died in the monster’s stomach.

“It’s too late.”

The voice was the same. But there was no way he was here.

“Could robots also come to the afterlife?”

Shane responded to Kyunghoon’s words.

“I’m not dead yet because someone left me a heart.”

The robot pounded its chest. The light from the mana stone shined through the cover.

Kyunghoon laughed.

He laughed for the first time.
