Chapter 93: Page One 3
Jaehwang looked through the weapons and picked out the ones he planned to take with him one by one. He also wore a layer of protection under his clothes.
He put armor on his shoulders, a hood over his head and he tied a belt with weapons around his waist. He finished up his preparation and he’s now ready for his mission.
[Set ‘Shadow hell’ complete.]
[Set effects]
[Hiding effects increased by 20 percent.]
[Hiding affiliation declined by 30 percent.]
“Everything seems to be okay.” He said as he checked the information of his weapons. He adjusted his hood and put on his coat. He wore a coat so no one would notice or get suspicious about the weapons that he was carrying especially in this winter season.
Jaehwang made sure that all of his weapons were perfectly hidden under his coat before walked out the door. He then saw four people in a wall of monitors as he left.
“You’re here.” A guy gave a polite greeting to Jaehwang.
“Hi,” Jaehwang replied. Jaehwang then looked behind and saw other people gathering around the area.
“There are rumors going around in Korea, are you okay?” One of them said to Jaehwang with a concerned tone.
He heard something about that before but he had no time to entertain that thought since he was only concerned about the mission that was about to begin.
“We’ve finished checking the surveillance.” One of them said.
“A lot of the CCTV were protected by their security, so we had a hard time checking it.”
“There were five people on patrol but we have confirmed their numbers. Their troops in total would be around 60, that sounds like a lot but it was actually not as high as we expected.”
“We would take action in 20 minutes, we’ll be getting more information until then…” She continued to talk and explain everything thoroughly.
“Understood.” She handed Jaehwang a folder and he started to read through it. It was a list of all the people that would be joining him.
“Everything looks great. They all have hiding skills and it looks like they’re really skilled.”
Having a hiding skill would make it much easier for them to get a hold of the information without a hitch. They would use a formation commonly used during a monster raid to get what they needed without being seen.
They still had to be careful of their enemies as they were still at risk of being assassinated. They also needed to be careful of the secret camera that could spot them even if they used their hiding skills. But looking at their plan, there should be nothing to worry about.
Jaehwang wasn’t even worried at all.
“What do we do next after they succeed?” He asked. The man then waited for a second and then added onto that question.
“The goal is to find the computer containing the top-secret information that we need and then, we’ll connect it to a computer of our own. That sounds easy but we’ll fail if we run into some fake data and make a complete fool of ourselves. The top of the red LED light would change to blue and that’s our cue. We won’t have much time though, we only have about five minutes at most.”
“Got it.” Jaehwang nodded and she then followed.
“We also have a plan just in case we fail. We have an immense amount of faith in each other and we believe that they’ll do good but if this doesn’t work out, then they’ll be major problems.”
“Would you care at all even if some of us won’t come home?” One of them asked.
“It wouldn’t matter. How could I even focus on anything like that since there’s something important that needs to be done. The connection between hunters and criminals have brought shame to the entire hunter community. We need to put an end to it” Jaehwang replied.
“I see.” She replied and stared at Jaehwang with her worried eyes. She couldn’t imagine how hard it must have been for him. Everyone around him was trustworthy but he still felt like he had to do things on his own.
They could have found out some information through the ancient tablets but no one believed in it. The information that they could get would still be doubted and them doing it anyway despite its risks made it worse.
“Gwanjae is back at it again after 50 years…” She said her thoughts to Jaewhang.
Jaehwang closed his eyes for a second since he could only focus on their plan. There was no time to waste. He quickly ran everything through his head and then decided that it was time go.
They went into the office and sat down to review their plan once more. He soon started to feel more relaxed. She ran everything to him so they could be completely sure not to make any mistakes.
She then started to explain a few things.
“If there’s no way to escape while you’re in there, then press the red button and someone will come to rescue you and the team.”
“Got it.” Jaehwang then got up from his seat and said, “I’ll be right back.”
“Okay.”
Jaehwang then left out of the door.
-I’m hungry, I need some snacks that I could eat.
-I’ll buy you some after this, don’t worry.
-I want it now, I even gave you that tiara.
-Didn’t you say that it was mine now?
-Fine.
The spirit whined as Jaehwang walked along. He could see his destination in the nearby distance. There was a large space of concrete that looked like a cliff and laying around. It looked like a pile of weapons made a mess of that place.
He then saw a piece of glass that looked like a diamond as it sparkled in the sun. He walked closer and a sign appeared. It looked like something that came from the Daehyeon clan, but there was no name written on it.
The restricted are just lies 100 meters away from him. Jaehwang leaned against a tree as he looked around.
-How are we going to get in.
-The others will handle it…
-How?
-Just wait and see.
Jaehwang replied to the spirit. It was time for the next step of their plan and a giant tank then appeared. Everything looked like it would proceed smoothly but an arrow came flying out of nowhere.
Tuek!
The arrow stopped the car as it went for its headlights. The driver went out of the car to check it out as Jaehwang placed the magic tiara on top of his head.
-Oh my gosh! How is it? Doesn’t it look great.
-Shut up.
Jaehwang said and the guy stopped moving as soon as he saw him. Jaehwang then instantly understood how to use his skills with the tiara that the spirit had given him. He didn’t even need to test them out… “Get back in the car.”
“O-okay.” The guy followed Jaehwang’s orders. Jaehwang then walked to the side of the car where the driver’s seat was and spoke to him.
“Looks like there’s no one else in this car. Go, drive… I’ll have a job to do.”
“…Okay.” The guy replied before he drove off.
[Tiger Hunter]
Jaehwang’s hunter senses grew. He was one of the people on the list given to him by Daejun. He wasn’t an important person but he was the best person that could take him inside.
“Stop!”
The car immediately stopped and he saw a woman.
“Is there something wrong?” Jeahwang asked.
“Yes. A lot has been happening since yesterday haha,” The driver replied.
“Yeah. Be Careful out here today. It’s really dangerous out here, especially right now.”
“Hm. Thank you for the heads up. Our inspection team are out right now so I’m sure that they’ll take care of it”
“Really? What do you mean?”
They both took turns to share their information. The person said that he was in his twenties and working as the head in the Daehyeon group cafeteria. Jaehwang felt comfortable enough to ride the car with him but he still took the backseat and looked past its windows. He then saw two search devices ahead but those didn’t contain any relevant data.
Taktak…
“Hm, what’s that noise?”
“Huh? I don’t hear anything.”
“That’s strange, sounds like I heard something…”
“Must have been nothing.” Jaehwang was secretly planting search devices as they moved on.
“Hm…” The guy then looked around and noticed the search devices.
“It’s nothing… I guess?” The guy then used his detection skills and tilted his head as he noticed that something was going on. He had a high ranked detection skill. He’s been going around the area for the past five years, he would know if something was off.
However, he just figured it was nothing and ignored it.
“With a rank like yours, your hiding skills may be a little faint… Right?” The guy asked and Jaehwang just looked at him for a moment before he turned back to his seat. Jaehwang was unaware that he had a detection skill. That’s when he knew that there was a problem. His detection skill was able to sense him. Jaehwang then saw that were a surveillance camera in the car facing him.
-This is clearly not going well.
-It’ll be fine, just stay calm.
Jaehwang tried to stay calm so he wouldn’t get any more suspicious. He thought of what to do if this situation happened before he came here, but he was less prepared for it that he thought.
-Be careful.
-I’m trying.
Maybe if Jaehwang could check the CCTV in the car he could find out more information.
“Is it here?”
Jaehwang asked as he saw something appearing in the distance. They then reached Jaehwang’s destination so he got out of the car and said goodbye to the person that drove him. He then saw the ventilation and went inside to continue on with the plan.
“Hm, are there any lasers here?
The spirit asked.
Click
Numerous red lines then appeared in front of Jaehwang.
-What’s going on?
-Try to examine our surroundings.
-Someone must have set up these lasers. I knew something like this would happen.
-Yeah…
They then saw a rat run by.
It wasn’t going to be easy getting through the ventilation but Jaehwang turned on his tiger hunter skill and went through it. As he continued to go on, he soon saw five doors ahead of him.
Whoosh
One of the doors then automatically opened, he saw a guy on the suit standing in the middle of the room. He invited Jaehwang to come in and the door closed behind him.
-Can we rest?
-I guess so.
All of his weapons were jumbled up and out of order, but now, they could finally relax without a problem. He then made sure the coast was clear and then connected one of the weapons to one of the computers.
He was holding the weapon in his hand and after he connected it, a red light came on. There was supposed to be a hidden blue light under the desk that he had to wait on to let him know that he’s done.
“Ah, this is tough. Do we have any kind of examples around here?”
“Don’t you do this kind of stuff everyday?”
“This is a new project, I’m pretty nervous.”
“Ugh, I wish he would just hurry up…”
“Let’s just wait.”
Jaehwang tilted his head as he heard the words of the guys guarding the doors outside. He was calm but something felt strange now that he had heard them talk.
A blue light then came on as he continued to eavesdrop on their conversation and it looked like everything went well. Jaehwang wrapped things up and signalled his group to head towards the exit.
-Did it go well?
-Yeah, but I’ll check again just to be sure.
They kept walking until they saw a glass door that had ‘B1’ written on it. They went through it without a thought but then, Jaehwang saw something so he stopped. The other guys moved on but Jaehwang froze in place.
-What the hell.
The spirit said with an angry tone. Jaehwang was feeling the same way.
They saw a set of countless glass tubes and it had human limbs inside of them. What could they have been doing with those?
“…W-what.. the.. Heck. How can someone do this?” So many thoughts had ran through his head. He was both angry and confused.
-This is so… Wow.
The spirit said in shock.
