Life Mission Chapter 129:
‘It’s okay . They won’t recognize me . How would they know who I am?’
Argos comforted himself as he walked to Black City .
Unless the PDA gets hacked, Lifers’ identities cannot be revealed . Even as this goes on, they are just normal Lifers to the subversives going after the card .
He wanted to do the deal in public for his safety, but he did not ask for protection, as he did not want to do anything unnecessary and become a target .
Argos usually uses a level E space compression bag . There is the danger that he could be robbed because the bag does not have owner recognition, but he had not really needed that until now .
However, as the card came out, his situation changed . Because he needed thorough security, he upgraded to the level D space compression bag . From level D, no one can open it unless they are the owner . The bag is expensive, but cannot be compared to the card’s worth .
His steps quicken . Argos was expressing his tension without intending to .
His judgment became cloudy because he has an item that he cannot handle .
Beep beep!
He turned the PDA on and measured the distance to Black City . It is about 40km away .
‘I guess I’ll have to get in a car now . ’
The day before the deal, Argos returned to reality from near here . He had come here already . He wanted to go further, but he cut it off midway .
It is not a distance that he can walk . He can rush there if he rides a car .
“Seller Argos . ”
“What! Who?”
When Argos was about to hail a car, he heard someone call him from behind and reacted . He was trying to be careful, but the subconscious is really scary .
“So it is you . ”
“What? No . I’m just someone looking around Black City! I was just surprised because you appeared out of nowhere . ”
“Swedish, blonde, blue eyes . And you’re still not Argos?”
“Good – goodness!”
How did they know that he is Swedish? He had not even told the world federation that . While Argos was taken aback, the murderers besieged him .
They thought they might be going back empty-handed again, but they had gotten it right . There are Lifers who react without meaning to if surprised from the back . They can realize the truth by really surprising someone through inductive interrogation, but the man in front of them is 100% Argos .
Look at how surprised he is .
“I can’t tell you if you’re smart or stupid . ”
“Sav – save me!”
“Hurry out . ”
“Yes!”
A murderer, who appeared to be the leader, covered Argos’ mouth with his hand . There was no way to fight him off because the attacker is wearing a battle suit .
“Are you wondering how we knew?”
Argos’ eyes are rolling back . He is frightened, but he wants to know .
“It’s impossible to hack PDAs . But, you went around saying your helper name too much . ”
You are bound to get caught if your tail is long . Bus Lifers come into contact with countless Lifers because of the way that they fight . Since reward points are their aim, there are cases where a force will bring on more than 50 Lifers on a bus .
He did that for close to 2 years, so how many people has he met until now?
This would not have happened if he had sold the card with a deadline of several months, but it has just been 1 week since he picked it . There are bound to be as many problems as little preparation there is . Even the murderer understands that thought .
He must have been excited and nervous from getting an impressive item . He wanted to quickly take care of it and free himself .
“Though it is good for us . ”
The murderers were about to drag Argos away when a few Lifers passing by saw him and started pointing . Something about the atmosphere is not good . Rumors spread within moments . If they delay, the world federation might send rankers .
[We’re going back to headquarters . ]
Dark Side is sending the signal . Blood Kingdom’s headquarters are in the last zone Z . It is hundreds of kilometers away from where they are now in zone H .
The murderer frowns . Argos is flailing his arms and legs . Even a small fish is a bother if it flops . It is concerning even with a difference in physical ability .
He put up his hand . He is about to knock him out .
Woong!
[Warning! A reaction of energy detected from the sky!]
The murderer looks up after the battle suit’s notice .
“Watch out!”
“Where to? Leave the person and go . ”
Koharu came down and cut through one person, while Violet’s javelin speared through another person . She settled and ruined a second person’s face with a right hook .
Cha Jun Sung also went after the murderer with the time limit battle suit, but he activated the booster and avoided him . Instead, he lost Argos .
“Hercules! Take him towards Black City!”
“Mission confirmed!”
“Huh?”
Hercules turned the booster on and runs along the road . It is heavy but the space is open, so it went faster than 100km/h .
“Who are you guys!”
“I don’t know, **** . ”
Papat!
Cha Jun Sung did not fight, and followed behind Hercules . His party members did the same . They will follow on their own . They do not have to stay in this place .
“Ugh! Get them!”
Tatatang!
When the murderers were about to chase them, bullets were shot at a few of them from the roof of a building . It was Park Jin Hyuk .
“Hi!”
Papat!
Park Jin Hyuk did not move with Cha Jun Sung, but moved separately from high places and took the duty of keeping the enemy in check . He means to divert their attention .
Bang!
They heard a thundering noise and stone fragments flew above their heads . Dark Side and Hell Sword read the situation and were running in the direction Cha Jun Sung’s group was going in .
“Damn it . How did they know?”
“We’ll think about that later . ”
Dark Side raised the output of his battle suit’s power . Blood King’s group will appear soon as well . If that happens, it is inevitable that the world federation will take notice . They need to catch these people before them .
[Black City, 40km to the rear on the left . There is an engagement between Blood Kingdom and regular Lifers . ]
Strategist took action as soon as he heard the radio come in .
Zone H is currently dense with the world federation and all different kinds of large guilds . There must be something going on for Blood Kingdom to make a fuss while knowing that .
[Breaker, Wind Wing, War Hammer . It’s close to where you guys are . You heard, right?] [We were on our way anyway . ] [We’ll join as well . ]
Dual Blade and Sonic Boom, and Longinus spoke from behind .
[Take care of it . ]
Strategist and the other rankers will protect this place . He wanted to send everyone if he could, but he needs to leave half of their power nearby just in case . Those 6 and the Lifers in the world federation should be able to take Blood Kingdom on . Even if they are pushed back, it will not be to the point where they cannot request support . He can dispatch additional force then .
“I can understand in the game . But why are those **** like that even in reality? Is it normal to kill people and take others’ things?”
Nuclear spoke to himself as he looked in the direction of the fight . He could not for the life of him understand it . He calls them crazy, but they must be in their right minds as well .
“There’s no end to it if you pick at it . They either really are crazy, or they just think it’s a game . ”
“Geez . ”
“This all happened in the first place because of Life Mission and the helpers . If that hadn’t happened, everyone would have gone on living their lives . ”
“That’s true . ”
They themselves created the process and results, but the cause is Life Mission . Everyone is a victim .
“Where are you going?”
Nuclear calls out to him . He is a traditional noble . In past eras, people would not even have dared to look at him properly .
“I’m going to rest . ”
“If you’re bored, do you want to go wreak havoc on Blood Kingdom with me?”
“6 people went . If we go too, the empty spaces will be too big . We don’t want to be in unnecessary fights . If you really want to go, go with Chamma Sword . ”
Chamma Sword felt a pang at Weapon Master’s words and smiled . His body is itching to go . He looks like he is about to bolt out at any second .
“I just said it for fun . We have to stay if Strategist tells us to . ”
“Call when you need me . ”
Weapon Master disappeared . Ice Queen and Boom Buster’s groups are fulfilling their duties and guarding their appointed areas . They cannot move freely .
Strategist does not give rankers commands . He just uses his intelligence and makes requests . It is an equivalent relationship . They do as he asks them to do because they know this .
They will watch for now . As a team, they are a force that cannot be pushed back if there are 6 of them .
