Papapat!
Cha Jun Sung runs . His party members run after him . They heard the radio regarding the battle . Parties 5 and 9 encountered Blood Suckers . They will probably not fall to a few of those guys because the Lifers all have battlesuits, but the battle is happening nearby . The noise from battling is shaking up the waterway anyway . Mutants would have already heard this with their enhanced senses .
“Jun Sung! It’s blocked!”
A dead end . Cha Jun Sung’s group is blocked off as parties 5 and 9 had been .
Cha Jun Sung bashes the wall . He can hear Lifers’ explosions and mutants’ screaming beyond the wall .
“Stand back . ”
Bang!
Cha Jun Sung makes a hole in the wall with his fist . He pulls the pin from a grenade and passes it into the hole . They can get 100% of the effects of the grenade if it goes off in the center .
Bang bang bang bang!
The wall cracks . But one was not be enough, so it stops along the way . The wall is extremely thick as it is not a path that they are supposed to be able to take .
Bang bang!
He puts 2 grenades in together . The wall finally explodes and collapses with dust filling the foreground .
“Support!”
“Go!”
Cha Jun Sung speaks as he flies forward . The Lifers are leaning towards the win after a long period of battling, but it will end faster with help .
Boom!
‘Tail whip . ’
It is a skill that they all use, from the Blood Devils to the Blood Lord . There is a great difference in the range of power, but they cannot be hit by one from a Blood Sucker .
Bang!
The wall is bashed in under the force of what is like a bat with nails sticking out of it . Even still, the thorns do not break and are perfectly fine .
Koharu goes on top of a Blood Sucker’s back, and slashes with her dagger . Violet jabs mostly at the chest and stomach with her javelin . Rankers are faced on the other side as well .
Boom boom boom!
Koharu and Violet fall away from the Blood Sucker . Dozens of thorns are launched in all directions . What would happen if they properly get hit with one of those?
New thorns form from where the old ones fly off . They do not form infinitely, but there is a large factor in stamina . If the Blood Suckers are tired or do not have sufficient nutrients, they cannot do it . This means that they are still full of energy .
Dozens of Lifers stick their vibrating weapons into the bodies of the Blood Suckers . Blood splatters . The ones that are really hard to handle are the ones with acid mixed into their blood . Fortunately, this is not the case for the Blood Suckers .
Ping ping ping!
They rotate their bodies to spin while launching thorns . They are making such a fuss . No matter how energized they are, there are 40 battlesuit owners . There are a lot of Blood Devils, but not enough to guard 2 Blood Suckers .
The Blood Suckers pretend to attack, turn their heads to the water, and jump in . They felt that there is nothing good in fighting a losing battle . The water is rotten but it is where they were born and raised, so there will be a way out .
“It’s running away!”
“Get it!”
A few Lifers grab the tails of the Blood Suckers trying to get away, and pull .
Bang bang!
Reverse boosters turn on and push the Lifers backwards . The Blood Suckers push away as much as they are being pulled . The Lifers cannot let them go . They especially need to kill the level 5s . It is a level that becomes a direct threat to the force . They need to reduce the numbers while they are separated like this .
Kyak!
Bang bang!
Cha Jun Sung gives a strong kick to the mouth of a howling Blood Sucker . He avoids their blades and attacks a relatively weak part .
The flesh rips . The kick applied an upper cut . Its head folds back and the Blood Sucker is looking at the ceiling . With that time, the Lifers swarm in .
They jab, cut, and dig into them . The Blood Suckers become covered in accumulating wounds . On the opposite side, the Blood Devils have been taken care of for the most part .
The Blood Suckers draw their breaths . They are on the brink of death, but not dead .
“Who’s going to finish it?”
The party leaders glance at party 10 . Killing the 2 Blood Suckers is worth at least 300,000 points .
“Figure it out amongst yourselves . ”
“Huh? Okay!”
Cha Jun Sung stopped showing interest . He is not greedy about such things .
[You have earned 180,000 points and 54,000 achievement points . ]
The party leaders each kill one . 180,000 points . They are top level, like the Caicus . They are opponents that they could not guarantee to beat if they had gone one-on-one instead of with dozens of Lifers . It is chilling to think of things like this swarming to them with level 6s .
“Are they all dead?”
“Sorry . We lost a few . ”
The Lifers cannot pick their heads up . A few Blood Devils ran away . There were several hundreds of them even if they are weak, so they ran away while their peers died .
[This is parties 5 and 9 . We have joined parties 4 and 10 . We killed 2 Blood Suckers and hundreds of Blood Devils! There are no Lifer deaths . ]
[You did well . Let’s meet up as soon as possible . ]
If they meet up once more, they will become a full force . It would be good if there is no large scale battle until then .
***
A bizarre alien creature twice the size of a normal Blood Sucker looks up into the open ceiling . It has a height reaching about 100m . The shape of the hole is strange, but it looks to be about 30 to 40m deep . The wreckage from the collapsing ceiling is rolling around all over the Public Underground .
A trace of the king .
The Blood Lord had come out twice, and created this hole to go outside . Sunlight seeps in through the hole . It was an incredibly thick wall, but the Blood Lord smashed it with one blow and ran .
The Blood Lord looking at the hole now is the Blood Sucker tribe’s Elder and born with their blood . If terms of humans, it would be about the direct brother of the former king . This is probably why it is a Blood Sucker but is almost 50m tall . The mission description mentioned that the Elder is the powerful servant .
Grr!
4 Blood Suckers crawl to the Elder’s side . They are not as large as the Elder, but about one half as greater than normal Blood Suckers .
They are level 6 . Cha Jun Sung’s group needs to fight 5 level 6s . They have come to the worst case scenario in which more than half of the power must fight against level 6s .
The leader Blood Suckers look wide and far around the Public Underground . Hundreds of thousands of cocoons are growing quickly . They have inexperienced Blood Suckers and Blood Devils everywhere to guard those cocoons . They are not normal cocoons . They were born from the king .
The 4 leaders have blood of the invited king . That is why they have surpassed level 5 limitations and reached level 6 . If all of those cocoons are born, they can become like the Elder and leaders . Of course only 0 . 1% of those develop into adults . The other 99 . 9% become the nutrients necessary for the 0 . 1% to develop .
Kyak!
Kung?
Injured Blood Devils come in through the Public Underground’s entrance . One of the leaders leaves its position in order to get a grasp of the situation . The Blood Devils explain in mutant language . It is a mistake to think that humans are the only technically accomplished .
Kung!
The level 6 roars . Enemies have broken in . An enemy at such an important time . The Blood Devils tremble in dreading at the roar .
Huek!
A leader tells the Elder, ‘I’ll go kill them . ’
Kruk .
The Elder does not permit it . They need to preserve power and protect the cocoons . The Blood Devils and Parasites outside are their eyes and ears, minimal troops to defend the outside on small scales . The Blood Suckers sent this time were supposed to make rounds at checkpoints and the Underpass to act as patrols that resolve problems .
Kyak!
The leader has a fiery personality and reacts . Mutants also have individual personalities .
Kung!
‘No . ’
Public Underground is spacious, but Underpass as a waterway is not ideal for Blood Suckers to fight in . Level 6s are so big that they cannot move easily . Even if the leaders go out, they will not be of much help .
Koo!
Kung!
The Elder becomes angry when the leader keeps reacting . They will sweep through the surroundings once the living becomes typified . Those below level 5 surpass dreading and feel fear, while only the level 6s withstand the moment .
Bang bang!
The Elder’s tail slams down on the ground . It is an attack from a 50m monster . The floor cracks without resistance . It looks like a 10 story building would fall over if hit with that .
Kung!
The Blood Suckers listen to the Elder’s orders and move the debris stuck next to the Blood Devils . They block the only entrance so that no one can come in . They fill the entrance with boulders that weigh from dozens of kilograms to tons . It is not something that can be brought down with bombs . No matter how many times they are smashed, there will be more . It may be uncomfortable, but the Blood Sucker clan can move through the hole in the ceiling . There is no reason to use the entrance .
[We’ll wait until the king comes in . Avoid any unnecessary battles . ]
Power is law for mutants . The weak must bow and listen . The Elder is the strongest after the Blood Lord . They all obey the Elder’s will, from the lowest Blood Parasites to leader Blood Suckers . Protecting the cocoons is top priority .
