[Amkena Side Story Episode 13]
* * *
Tanks and armored vehicles pass by on the road, and helicopters hover like bees. Even though it was supposed to be bright in the morning, the city was completely dark thanks to the purple fog that covered the entire sky.
‘He’s just going around openly now.’
Yesterday, they even imitated the police, but now they are occupying Seoul with armed troops.
The only fortunate thing is that citizens are nowhere to be seen.
Then you can relax and focus on driving.
Power went into Amkena’s foot stepping on the accelerator.
Boooooong!
Black Thunder, which was remodeled with the power of Aaron’s karma, has specifications that are different from ordinary cars.
The Black Thunder ran down the road with an intense engine sound.
“Get ready soon.”
Siris next to him warned.
Amkenna was determined.
The sound of helicopter propellers began to be heard everywhere.
“Is it coming! Is it coming all of a sudden!”
clap.
Opening the back seat, Nihaku took out a modern compound bow. Amkena couldn’t understand why those things were there.
“Come on, this time I am ready too!”
Nihaku immediately begins to draw an arrow and draw a string.
The tip of the arrow has an explosive warhead instead of a steel tip.
“It’s a fine sword!”
Nihaku took aim at the gap in the building and let go of the string.
An arrow pierced the air and hit the driver’s seat of a helicopter that had just turned a corner and was about to enter the road.
bang!
A helicopter crashes with a single explosion.
Amkenna decided not to pay attention to each of those explosions anymore.
After that, countless helicopters were following.
“come!”
Three or four armored vehicles stopped on an overpass far in front.
The assailants in full-body suits got out of the car and aimed rocket launchers at the Black Thunder.
“…?!”
Roaring!
At that moment, a fire broke out behind the bike next to Siris.
The bike, which accelerated like crazy, soared into the sky and flipped over once. Movement beyond the laws of physics. In the meantime, a flaming whip extended from Siris’ empty right arm.
‘Let’s not be surprised, let’s not be surprised.’
When Siris swung his right arm with a whip attached, the armored vehicles and troops parked on the overpass were swept away in one fell swoop.
The rocket launchers were on the verge of ejecting their warheads in unison.
thud.
The bike rotates 360 degrees in the air and lands softly.
Leaving the burning overpass alone, Black Thunder and the red bike continued to run as if nothing had happened.
[Are you okay?]
“Yes, I am fine.”
Yurnet’s voice flowed through the navigator.
[They are openly active because the level of erosion in this world has increased. It means that the Seoul Amkena-nim knew and now Seoul are completely different.]
Anyone can see that.
Amkenna nodded.
[But this situation is not all bad. As the degree of erosion increases, we will be able to exert our original power. Of course… it’s new blood compared to when I was in Valhalla. A little bit will help, though.]
“Not a little… I don’t think so…”
Amkena glanced back.
Papa papa papa!
Nihaku’s compound bow fires explosive arrows nonstop. The helicopters approaching in formation are all smashed and scattered by her high-speed sniping.
“Haha!”
Above a car traveling at 200 km/h.
It oscillates left and right incessantly.
Standing in an unstable posture in the back seat, they fire randomly without aiming properly.
No, firing at random is an illusion of Amkena.
Dozens of explosive arrows all hit the helicopter’s vitals. As if the hit had been foreseen from the beginning.
Even a helicopter that can only be seen as a dot in the distant sky over a few kilometers is exploding.
‘Isn’t there such a thing?’
Like the wind direction or wind speed when shooting an arrow.
Aren’t things very complicated?
Is it okay if I just shoot randomly?
‘What else is that…’
Perverted!
As Siris wielded the flame whip, all the windows of the high-rise building were shattered, and a pillar of fire shot through them. The assailants who were preparing to shoot inside the building burned to ashes, leaving not even their bones.
Even the bike she rode ran through the side of the window of the building.
It defies gravity.
Booung!
Black Thunder running down a four-lane road.
There are so many of them appearing here and there.
Tanks, armored vehicles, police cars, vans, large and small helicopters.
A group of people hiding around buildings and aiming guns and rockets.
Even so, Black Thunder was unharmed.
The one floating in the sky is Nihaku, and the one in the buildings and roads is Sirisuga.
Very rarely, bullets or rockets try to hit Black Thunder.
giggling!
The moment it touches the car body, a ripple like a suspicious wave arises and disappears as if it never existed in the first place.
“Concentrate on driving.”
Absent-mindedly at Aaron’s words, Amkena nodded her head.
Therefore,
Black Thunder was advancing through downtown Seoul, devastating the area with explosions and flames.
on the other hand.
Information desk of breaking news.
[Live broadcast!]
[Emergency chase with terrorists! We will deliver it as it is.]
[It seems that the terrorists are currently heading for the World Tower. What is the intention?]
The expert answered the announcer’s question.
[According to reports, the chemical bombs possessed by the terrorists have the property of spreading widely to low places. I think it’s probably to maximize the killing radius by exploding from a high place.] [
By the way.]
[Say something.]
[Isn’t something a little… strange?]
[What do you mean?]
[Looking at the video. …]
The announcer glances at the top right corner of the broadcast screen.
There, the real situation of the chase was being relayed.
For reference there.
“Come on!”
Nihaku was shooting down everything floating in the sky with a single bow.
Helicopters that can be pulled up in downtown Seoul have been mobilized, but they have not been able to go anywhere near them and are being smashed and broken.
It was a situation that made no sense.
[Isn’t that a bit strange?]
[What’s strange?]
[The terrorist is holding a normal bow. Does it make sense to shoot down an entire squadron of helicopters with that?]
[It makes sense. It is using an explosive warhead, not an ordinary arrow.]
[No, it’s an explosive warhead, and it’s a nabal, and you’re hitting all 100 shots in that situation, right? Is that possible?]
[It’s a newly developed special bow, so it has a guidance function!]
[Yes?]
The announcer looked at the expert beside him as if he was dumbfounded.
[Didn’t I tell you? The terrorists this time are supported by enemy countries. It’s not strange to have a few special weapons like that.]
[No, that’s…]
[That’s nothing! It is not right to doubt an emergency in this situation where the fate of Seoul or the fate of Korea is at stake!]
[Is that so? Sorry.]
The announcer hastily apologized to the expert.
But that doubt doesn’t go away.
The announcer opened his mouth again.
[But that’s not all…]
[What else?]
The screen expands.
And slow motion at the same time.
A shell just fired from an anti-tank gun is about to hit Black Thunder’s tires.
However, as soon as the shell hits and explodes, it disappears in a flash.
[That… what the heck?]
[That car looks ordinary at first glance, but it has special technology applied to it. It can only be seen as a special weapon of the enemy country.]
[Yes? No?]
The announcer starts looking around.
It was an action that seemed to question the current broadcast itself.
[Look at that too! Next to me…!]
Bang!
As Siris wielded the flame whip, a huge pillar of flame erupted from its trajectory, burning the surroundings. Two armored vehicles were swept away by the flames and exploded one after another.
[That again…]
[It could happen.]
[It could happen?]
[Isn’t it visible?]
[I can see it…]
The expert man said with a firm face.
[It is ‘reality’ beyond what is visible. Our job is to tell the truth. We must not turn our eyes away from the truth in order to give viewers certain information.]
The expert man said in a solemn tone.
It seems like you’re prepared no matter what happens.
The announcer next to him was also deeply impressed.
that’s right.
The announcer changed his mind.
My job is to inform the viewers of the truth.
No matter how embarrassing the situation, you can’t dismiss it as a lie.
The announcer, who had made up his mind, was about to open his mouth.
[You’re serious about that?]
The broadcast continues.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared behind the two of them.
[What?]
The man looked back in amazement.
A suspiciously silver-haired woman looked down at the two and smiled.
[I’m sorry, but there’s a scoop that I can’t help but tell you. Can you excuse me for a second?]
The silver-haired woman intervened between the two and took a seat in the middle of the desk.
[What is it? Who are you! security! Security guard!]
The man looked at the door next to him.
tightly closed door.
I don’t know where that woman came from.
[Get this woman out now! What are you doing!]
The camera moved to the right of the information desk to reveal a closed door.
It was the exit from the broadcasting set.
After a while.
thud!
The door shook violently once, leaving a bloody handprint on the opaque glass.
[…]
The hardened two.
[You can’t stop broadcasting. The future of Korea and the world depends on this live situation. Right, you two?]
The silver-haired woman grinned.
[As the man next to you said, anything can happen.]
[This… what the hell? Where did you appear from!]
A terrorist suddenly appeared on the news. Even so, the broadcast does not stop.
[that’s right. Even if a biochemical terrorist suddenly appears in the middle of Seoul. There is nothing strange about the terrorists receiving secret support from the enemy country and responding to the army with various new weapons.]
The woman sitting in the middle of the broadcasting desk smiled.
[Because no one can say that there is no chance of that.]
[No, you! Who are you!]
Bang!
This time, the door on the right side was completely blown off.
In the meantime, a man with a long sword walked out.
Drops of blood dripped from the tip of the blade.
[Heo Eok!]
[Go ahead with the broadcast.]
The man’s complexion turned white at the words of the man holding the knife.
[To tell the truth to the people of Earth. Isn’t that the duty of this broadcast and you?]
[Ha, but how can you tell the truth in this situation!]
[That’s funny. Whatever is transmitted here becomes ‘truth’. That’s the rule.]
[You’re saying this strange thing!]
[Anyway, the broadcast must go on. Because the situation is fighting one shot. Right, the two next to me?]
The announcer and the expert became mute after eating honey.
But soon, both of them hardened their faces.
Her duty is to tell the sublime truth to the people of Earth.
I can’t give up with this level of intimidation.
[That’s right. Our role is relaying! And the situation is not over yet!]
The announcer says.
The expert man was sweating profusely.
[Well, by the way.]
The silver-haired woman sitting in the middle started tapping the papers on the desk.
[Would you believe it if something more serious and urgent than the biochemical terrorism in the middle of Seoul happened?]
The man who seemed to be an expert looked back at the silver-haired woman.
[According to the breaking news 10 minutes ago, the Kantapiya tribe appeared with a giant ship from planet K-313409 belonging to the Andromeda galaxy and issued an ultimatum.] […?] [According to their proclamation, 50 billion biscuits within
an
hour They say they will destroy the Earth’s inner core with planet-destroying rays if you don’t bring dogs and 147 billion bags of star candy.]
The man who was listening to the story became dumbfounded.
[What…?]
[Oh. The Kantapiya tribe said they would blow up the earth if we didn’t offer biscuits and star candy. Within an hour.]
[No, what is that…]
The expert replied as if it were absurd.
[Stop talking bullshit!]
[Oh, the biochemical terrorists and secret weapons that suddenly appeared are the truth, and the super-giant Kantapiya ship that appeared in the sky above the Earth is a lie?]
Yurnet’s eyes widened.
[Then, shouldn’t it be okay to doubt the authenticity of this broadcast?]
[…?]
[If it was actually a fake broadcast. What if there was no such thing as a terrorist from the beginning? What if everything was a lie?]
That moment.
Kwajik.
Something started to crack the glass.
[…!]
The middle-aged man’s complexion changed in an instant.
[Could you please answer me? ‘It’s good enough,’ he said. There is nothing impossible in this world.]
[That’s…]
Beads of sweat began to form on the man’s forehead.
know.
know instinctively
When this broadcast collapses, the man’s existence is shattered and he falls into the abyss.
Because the owner ordered it that way.
[Profit!]
Finally the man made up his mind.
[That’s right! A super-giant spacecraft that suddenly warped over Seoul! It’s quite possible!]
[Yes? What!]
The announcer on the left was startled as if fainting.
[Nothing is impossible in this world!]
declared the man.
So then another place.
“…?”
In the middle of the chase, Amkenna felt the sky darken.
The sky I looked up at inadvertently.
She was so shocked that her eyes popped out.
A size that could be dozens of kilos.
Such a gray steel disk floats in the sky.
The entire street was darkened by the shadow cast by the super-giant disk.
“Hey! I saw that! It looks just like the UFO from InnXPenOS Day!”
Nihaku exclaimed lively.
