Cha Jun Sung bent over and punched the face of a bizarre looking 3-4m mutant. It’s head split like a watermelon.

“Killed them all.”

His immediate area is a field of corpses.

There are crushed mutants missing limbs everywhere.

He did this within minutes.

Kik!

A faint sound.

Cha Jun Sung’s finger flicks out and tosses through the debris.

A scream coming from the throes of death. One of them must be alive.

“Phew. How much longer do I have to wait for them to find me? It would be easier if I could go to them.”

[I cannot tell you their location.]

“I know.”

Tyrant entered the mission.

That was already several weeks ago. He doesn’t know what he’s doing and where. He knows nothing other than that he had entered.

If he had known where Tyrant was, he would have gone and spied on him at the least.

Cha Jun Sung has nothing to do right now, so he is hunting mutants. He means to accumulate points while Tyrant makes his way here.

“It isn’t easy finding useful ones.”

He needs a lot of mutants if he is to take on Tyrant and the Rage guild. With his personality, he is likely to have come in with a full core.

10,000 levels B and C Lifers.

That is a powerful group even without Tyrant.

He needs to head off the number of heads. He is looking for a useful mutant species that live in groups, but they don’t really catch his eye.

At the least, he wants level 5 mutants that live in groups of tens of thousands, but he has only seen useless ones until now.

There hasn’t been progress for weeks.

He would want nothing more if there were things like the parasites from the Path of Blood, but it seems he had been lucky them.

“A single mutant is entirely useless if it isn’t level 7.”

Mutants, like humans, have individual characteristics.

There are different personalities within species as well. So what would happen if the species were different?

There will be problems if they are gathered into one area, even if they are managed well.

Level 7 is worth managing regardless of species when considering strength. There won’t be many of them anyway, so it’ll be a small group of elites.

It is an impossible goal because it’s hard to even find one.

This is why Cha Jun Sung wants mutants that live in groups.

If he just takes out the head, the underlings will follow him naturally.

The suppression process is bothersome, it isn’t impossible.

Cha Jun Sung reduced his 10m body into a fourth of the size. He only maintained his body during battle. Otherwise, he limited his consumption of energy.

He doesn’t transform into human form.

He will maintain this form until this is all over. He cannot forget.

His role in Black Devil is the mutant.

Is it because he has gotten used to the battlesuit?

There’s a strange sense of awareness when he is in this state. He intends to get rid of that feeling.

Cha Jun Sung is in mutant form, but he cannot lose his human habits. He only sleeps on the street and eats raw meat when he has to. Normally, he acted like an ordinary human.

He maintained his living habits. He is only externally a monster.

Less than an hour of sleep over several days is plenty, so he took care of that in derelict buildings or hotels. And Odin procured food for him.

Since Cha Jun Sung entered the mission, all he’s done is eat, sleep, and play.

“This won’t do.”

For the past few days, he stopped hunting and locked himself in a residence to come up with a plan.

The plan isn’t very special. Power enhancement is priority. He needs to find good fighters to take on the Rage guild members.

He went searching through everything in Path of Blood without complaint because he was looking for Odelia, but it isn’t his duty right now.

He wandered around the area he had been initially summoned to, barely searching for them. There can only be a minimal number of mutants since the area he is working in is small.

“Get me my space compression bag.”

[You’ve decided to use it.]

“What else can I do? I don’t want to go searching around.”

Good fighters. If he knows where mutants are gathered, he can just go looking for them. But he has to search through everything because he doesn’t.

His stance changed. He tried to save his points before entering, but that resolve came crashing down once he entered.

Woong!

Odin connects the dimensions.

A summons gate opened in front of Cha Jun Sung and a small bag, his space compression bag, came out.

It has been filled with better items than what was in the one that he lost.

Papat!

Cha Jun Sung took his space compression bag and went to the top of the highest buildings where he was staying. Then he took out a few Universe Eyes.

“Let’s use one first.”

A Universe Eye became activated and shot into the sky. It ejected the hundred eyes and the search range immediately expanded to a 100km radius.

“I’ll send two more out. Give me any two coordinates that overlap.”

[355. 253. Southeast. 620. 962. Northeast. If they are installed according to this Universe Eye, this will have the best effect.]

Boom boom!

2 Universe Eyes fly to the locations Odin listed.

This method of installation was called the ‘sandwich’ in the virtual version.

The Universe Eyes will be installed if it is within the search range without having to go himself.

It is inefficient however. The search ranges overlap and cover areas that don’t need to be included. It isn’t a method used unless in special circumstances.

[2 hours estimated for installation at this flight speed. Will you search the area that has been installed first?]

“It’s fine. I’ll just do it all at once.”

His normal PDA is inside the space compression bag. He can look at the hologram with that. There’s no reason to look at it two or three times. He’ll look at them all together.

***

[As you can see, there are three mutant groups that meet the search conditions. The Thirask herd, Poison herd, and Bomb Ant herd.]

They only found three mutant herds that live in groups even though he sent out 3 Universe Eyes.

The Thirask is a low level 5 lizard that is a half size larger than an elephant. Its main attacks are through its poisonous teeth and tail. There are about 3000 to 4000 of them living near the river.

The Poison herd are poisonous butterflies. Middle level 5. They took control of a city and are stuck all over the buildings. They number about half of that of the Thirask. They possess several types of poison and are a flying species, so they are weak against the strong and strong against the weak. One of them can kill hundreds.

Lastly, unlike the previously discovered two mutant groups, the Bomb Ant are low level 4 red and black ants that are as large as humans.

Like its name ‘Bomb,’ Bomb Ants are a suicide team that specialize in self-destruction.

Its explosive power is similar to that of a grenade. That power cannot destroy a basic type battlesuit, but their strength is volume.

If water drops keep falling, they can penetrate a rock. Nothing could be worse than having dozens of them swarm in everywhere.

They live deep in a cave, and it is impossible to figure out how many of them there are.

They live in a place that makes it hard for the Universe Eye or the hundred eyes.

“Take the Thirask out. I don’t like it because it’s gross.”

He is joking.

The Thirask can’t fight properly if there is no water. If their supply of water is cut off for a long time, they will dry up and die. There are a lot of restrictions.

The Poison herd is a no-go as well. There are too few of them. If they go into aerial battle with thousands of battlesuit Lifers, they’ll be overwhelmed as soon as they strike. The efficacy of poison that only works against living things falls to the characteristics of mechanical armor. Only acid poison powder would work, but that won’t do the job.

“Let’s go with the Bomb Ants.”

They are low level and he doesn’t know how many of them there are, but ants tend to be high in numbers. In severe cases, hundreds of thousands of them live together.

Even in the virtual version, he’s never heard of Bomb Ants living in numbers of hundreds or thousands. Their main attack is only suicide, but that depends on how they’re used.

[We have seen level 5 and 6 mutants in original form near the Bomb Ant hill, using them as a source of food.]

“Are they allies?”

They could have created a tacit alliance in order to prevent the expansion of the Bomb Ants’ power. They are managing the balance so that it does not come crashing down.

“The distance?”

[Coordinates 725.522. They are 170 km northeast.]

“It’s far.”

Wings form on Cha Jun Sung’s back. They aren’t that difficult to control, but he has gotten better at it. It is slow, but he is able to fly. It’ll be better for him to fly there and get a chance to practice.
