Players who are members of AMT have lower levels compared to private guilds.
That is a common view that works when dividing the hierarchy of players.
However, in the case of "bottle " or not, even as an officer, he is treated better than a medium-sized guild, and in the case of special classes, a number of "tankers " are included.
〈Special Mission Battalion 999〉 is such a place.
They are an elite force of players who specialize in counter-terrorism operations, and receive salaries and unpleasant treatment for large guilds. That's why they have great pride and gained popularity.
They were put into the fire site of the Gangdong-gu Alchemy Research Complex today.
This must be considered a bad signal.
Because, the incident was not an ordinary accident, but implied the meaning of "terrorism".
-Latest news! Five minutes ago, at 14:55, the location of the fire at the Alchemy Research Center in Gangdong-dong made the news that the operating vehicle of the 〈Special Mission Battalion 999〉, widely known as the country's best anti-terrorism unit player, entered. According to police officers, there are a number of unknown intruders at the fire site ... ...
In this way, all media preach the seriousness of this case based on their actions.
Then, the police delivered a secret through an official announcement.
The site is occupied by an unknown terrorist group,
At present hundreds of employees are taken hostage.
Thus, the Republic of Korea turned back.
But, underneath, something was stretching in the basement ... ...
The real threat is unknown to anyone.
***
" ... Look over there! That's the Cobra Squad! "
"They are real! They are coming! "
Gangdong-gu Alchemy Research Complex terrorist site,
Cries like that were heard when armed forces players got off bulletproof trucks.
The Cobra Forces are a team that specializes in 'shooting ' among the 999 Special Mission Battalion, and has resolved a number of serious situations at home and abroad with the team leader as a class A shooter player.
click! click! click! click!
With the appearance of the Cobra Squad, reporters lift the camera first.
"—Articles with their photos are scenes that should not be missed because the clickthrough rate is extraordinary.
Cobra troops! We believe in you!"
"Bring good results again! "
There are even journalists who cheer for their personal gain.
Like this, they are also players who join the ranks of "hero" Korea.
However, their faces covered in masks became tangled.
"Huh... what situation happened on this good day? "
"Right. Some children have been hostages lately ... "
Article, the main purpose of this operation is to save hostages.
No matter how great 〈Special Mission Battalion 999〉, the hostage game is very confusing.
"Damn, that's also people armed with weapons. "
Ordinary firearms are not a threat to players, but are more dangerous to civilians than anything else.
And no matter how good the skill is, you can't point the snout at the head of the hostage.
In other words, the expected path of "negotiations " is inevitable, and the operation may take a very long time.
"Ha....get together for briefing. "
They immediately gathered at the operations command post, and the head of the operations team, Lieutenant Colonel Oh Seong-hun entered.
He is a class A wizard-based player, and he is a strong player in counter-terrorism operations.
"Okay, everyone is here, so let's start the briefing. "
It was Oh Seong-hoon, who has so far resolved dozens of counter-terrorism cases, but now his face is grim.
And the first words he said were also more pessimistic than before.
" ... ... Everything is worse than expected. "
When he operates the remote control, the projector lights up and a screen appears on the screen behind his back.
It was a lab picture as if taken with a drone camera,
Inside the window, masked terrorists armed with AK-47 rifles.
"The number of terrorists identified today is 18, armed with automatic rifles and explosives. And ... Some hostages are said to be wearing bomb vests with mana circuit. "
Because of this, the whole crew had no choice but to harden their faces.
"Ha, crazy..... Mana circuit bomb!"
Mana circuit bomb, explosive switch is turned on when the user's life is cut off.
If there is such a thing, 'sniping', the most important method in counter-terrorism warfare, becomes impossible.
In other words, it can be assumed that at present there is almost no "helpless way to save hostages.
"A pair ... this is a pretty big bad person, what's his identity? "
"That too ... there is no information, and it is unclear where it penetrates it. "
"Huh... Then what do they want? Don't we just have to listen to this? "
When facing such challenges, it is best to conduct a smooth "negotiation ".
"There are no special requirements yet, and I just repeat that if I do, I will turn it all off. "
This is a hostage game where the reasons for unidentified terrorist groups are unknown ... ...
It was a moment when room for "negotiations ", the first phase of a hostage rescue operation, was damaged.
"If so, does that mean the goal is at least not 'money'?"
"Yes, maybe they need time to get some technology out of the lab. "
A vague situation in many ways ... ... sighs flow from one place to another.
"So, for now, I will continue to talk to them and focus on understanding their intentions. Meanwhile, Elementalist Duo Team 2 put the spirit in the building and examined the internal situation. "
In the end, there is only "watching " only for now.
Not until two hours have passed without being able to do a thing. It is a natural reaction if the media begins to express doubts about the police, who are unable to overcome anything.
-... ... With 298 hostages known to be detained in Building B of the Institute, police officials say they are trying to negotiate with terrorists. However, for more than two hours, there was no progress in negotiations, and the safety of the hostages could not be ensured.
In addition, 〈Cobra forces 〉, who gained fame by successfully carrying out two previous counter-terrorism operations, have been mobilized, but they also do not have certain trends, so there are only a few clues to solving the problem ... ...
"Ssang, civilians are like pieces of meat. How do you get in there? "
"Ah, Sergeant Koo, the main tank must always be cool, not excited. "
"F*ck, if I'm cold, will there be a shield for the hostages inside? "
While listening to news reports from car radios, members of the Cobra team sharpened their teeth.
"Huh... Hey, when our ransom jumped, did this happen? "
As the previous reporter responded, "Cobra Squad" gained tremendous popularity.
That's because he entered the ranks of heroes by completing the last three operations very well.
If something else is resolved this time, their stock price will soar.
That is, if it fails, the stock price can plummet overnight.
"Oh, this is the wrong time, really. "
They are not entertainers, but they have no choice but to care about the fame that is spreading in the world.
Because reputation determines a person's "stock price ".
Despite being a state official, the successful player was able to negotiate ransom with the state.
In other words, the stock price is money.
"Oh, I'm thinking of going to the guild attack team leader after serving for about half a year and paying a little ransom ... "
"Ah, do you think the team leader will release you? You have to do it for two more years. "
At that moment, a loud noise began to be heard from somewhere.
Dudududu—
"...Well, what are you talking about? Isn't that a helicopter? "
Oh Sung-hoon, the leader of the operations team, who was looking at the operation board inside the command post, asked,
An administrative deputy raised a tent at the entrance of the post.
A helicopter landed on an empty land about 50m from here.
"Well ... is there no news that someone will come? "
If enough to appear on a helicopter, he is a pretty high ranking person
Oh Sung-hoon, who is in charge of this operation, has no choice but to feel an instinctive grudge.
At that time, representative Oh Seong-hoon was late delivering the news.
"Alright, team leader! An emergency order has just been issued from above! "
"It's about working with supporting forces that will arrive soon. "
Oh Sung-hoon frowned at the words.
" ... ... What? I'm not short of troops right now, but what kind of support force are you suddenly? Whose command is that? "
"Uh ... the general manager immediately called me, and said that Blue House is incoming. "
"My god, Blue House ...."
Here, the Blue House does not mean the President, but means 〈Office of the National Gate Response Strategy 〉, an organization that is directly under the President.
Doing direct intervention from there ... ... This is very unusual.
'Is there something in the basement of the research institute? '
Therefore, Oh Sung-hoon has such doubts.
"So, haven't you told me who the great supporting power they will provide? "
On the one hand, I am very happy with who is the great person sent by the Blue House.
"Well, it's an AMT soldier ... Sergeant, Sergeant Lee Hyun-wook. "
***
On the helicopter to the location, Lee Hyun-wook told the current situation to team leader Lee Kyo-jun.
" ... It's hard to save hostages because terrorists even mobilize with "mana circuit bomb ". And from the results of CCTV checking on the spot, there are no signs of penetration from the outside, so I suspect using the portal. "
But everything is not known.
And he know hidden facts that even these people don't know.
'The terrorist who first occupied this institution was not an invasion from outside, but a rebellion from within. '
Alchemy research complex operated by a research foundation established by the second largest business group〈Gogwang〉,
There, they developed a technology that maximizes the efficiency of energy sources called 'mana rocks '.
'But it's just a camouflage membrane, and it's actually a secret blood magic research facility. '
Blood magic (宜 法), literally a type of black magic with blood as its medium.
'This business began after getting 〈Nectar〉, a drink from the gods in Greek mythology ... '
Therefore, they aim for clear hopes and tasks from humans, such as 'eternity ' and 'evolution ', but because miracles realize mysteries are real time, they are considered possible.
'So, those who have a lot of money but live a little, have invested generously. '
With enormous support from these people, experiments were carried out that broke taboo by mobilizing all kinds of methods.
And among the contents of his experiments there is also research on 'objects ' which contain the power of 'demons '.
' ... As time goes by, researchers one by one fall into the temptations of the devil. '
A group of devil worshipers was formed, it was they who caused today's events.
At that time, the helicopter landed on an empty field.
"Sergeant Hyun-wook Lee, you have arrived. Maybe this is your last mission as an AMT soldier? "
Lee Hyun-wook still has the remaining 'mission assignment period. Under the protection of Woo Sung-moon, he actually worked like a civilian, but he officially became an AMT soldier. That's why he still wears an AMT combat uniform.
Lee Hyun-wook got off the helicopter, covering his face with a mask.
The fact of his arrival here must not be leaked to reporters.
At that time, someone left the command post. AMT black combat uniform, rank of lieutenant colonel.
"Sergeant Hyun-wook Lee, I'm Sung-Hoon Oh, leader of the operations team. You are a soldier, but you are not actually a soldier now, and you are a person who will be a big person. giant in the future.
He spoke rather cynically and reached out his hand.
" ... ... I don't care. You can do whatever you like. "
Lee Hyun-wook said so, and held the lieutenant's hand as a sergeant.
Now, there is no need to submit to military officers.
Following Lee Hyun-wook and Oh Sung-hoon, he entered the operations command post.
"As expected, rescuers in Seoul are different, but out of the ordinary. Do you want to participate in operations while boarding a Blue House connection? "
In fact, Lee Hyun-wook thinks that after a certain period of time, he will go out to Woo Sung-moon.
But unexpectedly, Woo Sung-moon first contacted me and asked me to finish this job.
It is said that "Steel Emperor " Lee Hyun-wook can neutralize "firearms " criminals who are taken hostage ...
'One time, the fact that Woo Sung-moon asked himself ... ... That means he also realized something. '
It seems that Woo Sung-moon predicted some of the disasters that would occur here.
However, the disaster still cannot be stopped.
"My ability is specialized in saving hostages, so I departed after receiving orders. Thank you very much. "
"...Specialization, how can you help save the hostages? "
The day came when Oh Sung-hoon repeatedly asked.
It's worth it.
Counter-terrorism experts themselves wasted hours of — and he appeared himself and said he could fix it.
'Yes, they have no choice but to worry about the situation and myself ... ... '
Not surprisingly, all members of the special forces at the command post opened their axes and looked at Lee Hyun-wook.
"All I can do is simple. I can control the weapons of the hostages. "
"Oh, can you really think of pulling the trigger by physically limiting it? "
"Yes, you can bend the muzzle or make the inner bolt inoperable."
At that moment, there was a grunt from one side of the command post.
"No, no, I'll handle it with a gun from the start, we're not stupid ...."
It was the captain's class man who muttered a lot.
His name is Gil-Hyun Lee,
Seeing him holding an arrow, he looked like an archer, maybe a member of the Cobra Forces.
With his arms folded, he looked at Lee Hyun-wook.
"Hey, Hero man, have you ever heard of mana circuit bomb? "
"Yes, I also heard it, and in the end it also needed matal shards and metal triggers. "
Lee Hyun-wook answered without hesitation.
"And if you look at the bomb vest in a picture taken with a drone camera, it looks like the same model that happened in a hostage play in Hersson, Ukraine, 8 months ago. It was made in Hungary. Connected to the body caster with 'mana' and when the user dies, 'mana Circuit' will 'trigger switch ' to explode the bomb."
" ..."
"In other words, I can control the metal trigger switch. "
This is easy to say, but in fact, this is a problem that requires a high level of concentration.
However, Lee Hyun-wook has the confidence to do it. That's because I already did it.
"And if there is another way ... so even though it is a type of magic circuit that does not require a metal trigger, you can defeat the magic caster without killing it. "
" ... How is it? "
"Everyone will have many metal objects on his body. "
Almost all objects and weapons in this world are made of "metals",
Therefore, unless Lee Hyun-wook is specially prepared, he can be defeated only by the movements of his hands.
After hearing that far, Oh Sung-hoon nodded.
"Well, that's good. First of all, your order is not something we can reject. "
He also did not like Lee Hyun-wook's appearance, but the success of his operation was more important than his personal feelings. And on the one hand, I want check the capabilities of 'hero', who only hear in rumor with my own eyes.
"Well, Sergeant Hyun-wook Lee, we have to match coordinates with snipers on our side, so now ..."
However, Lee Hyun-wook shook his head before he even finished saying his words.
"No, you don't need sniper support. I will take care of it from beginning to end. "
"-What?"
One sniper agent, Lieutenant Gil-hyun Lee, this time advanced again.
"Now, you don't need us? What kind of operation does not require the help of snipers? "
Cobra troops, they are proud to be the best sniping troops.
That's why I'm upset with the saying that I don't need snipers.
"Conversely, it will be dangerous if there is a different variations between my control. Snipers or arrows can hit the metal I control and become grenades and hostages. "
Now, this blue-skinned young man insisted that he would carry out this operation himself.
"Hey, I know you are good, but just do it enough. "
Lee Gil-hyun said so, spurred his chair and woke up.
"Huh, to come and treat us as bridesmaids ... I know you're a handsome person, but this is totally different from what you've ever experienced. Admiral Yi Sun-sin, the best hero in our history, will not be able to fight terrorism. But the hero is still a hero. How long have you been called, someone else's world —"
"Lieutenant, stop — just do it there."
"Ha- Sir, no, he is not a team leader. In this important work, a child like that ...."
Lee Hyun-wook also refused to accept this and threw a word.
"Captain Lee, sorry, this is an important case, so I'm here. "
"What?"
"Because all this time you have not done anything, you have been replaced. "
Those words are full of confidence.
" ... ... You're crazy, let's see how well you do."
Lee Gil-hyun said that then came out.
***
Building B Alchemy Research Complex,
Eighteen terrorists hold AK-47s and are on guard.
At that time, a man jumped into the hostages.
"Damn — Hey! This way! Please talk to me! "
Scream
Four weapons directed at him.
"How can you do this to us! Why do you do it! "
" ... Dr. Oh, shut your mouth. Do you want to be thrown underground there? "
"Hey, bastard! You, know how much you earn, what do you do? "
As you can see from this conversation, terrorists and hostages, they were once friends.
"Uh, how to eat a pot of rice ... How to do that, to those monsters ... "
He muttered like that and looked into the eyes of a man named Lee.
His eyes are somewhere strange. On the other hand, black men glow with dark red light.
"Yes too! Those eyes ...you are all abnormal! "
Come to think of it, someday, there are rumors in the company.
Black magic research is carried out underground, and at 4am every day, department members hold demon worship rituals. That's really a rumor and there is no way to be sure of reality. But now this situation, and what happened in the basement of the research center really ... ... All of that is real.
"You guys, you guys are from an ancient relic research lab, you get strange things and end up going crazy! "
"Ha... I can't. Oh doctor, you have to go down to the basement. "
When Lee said that, two terrorists approached and grabbed his arm.
" ... ... Oh, no! Not! Put this down! "
"No, so you keep quiet. Why are you suddenly having a seizure? "
They dragged a man named Dr. Oh to the elevator.
Then I opened the elevator door, and there was no elevator, there was only dark darkness.
They threw Dr. Oh into it.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
His screams fell there, increasingly blurred,
As soon as the sound was over, a completely different strange sound was heard.
Kyaah ah—
Boiling phlegm, biting something, and the sound of chewing and swallowing ... ...
" ..."
Hearing the sound, the other hostages were forced to tremble.
At that moment, a terrorist approached Mr. Lee.
He shook mana messenger, giving the impression that he was upset.
"Ha... Chairwoman, do you intend to come to negotiate again? "
"Tsk, are you still not aware that this is not what we want? "
All they want is to do kill time, there until some miracle is happens.
"If you go there alone alone, they say you will be shot with the hostages. "
"By the way, can't the players approach them with skills like stealth? "
"No, I will not do anything or they kill the hostages. "
He is very sure.
"First of all, they don't even know what's happening underground, and they will try to save hostages ... "
But saying so, I turned my head.
At that moment, I saw a strange face standing at the entrance of the building.
He is ... ... He is wearing a black combat uniform.
Jerk— Jerk—
Such a person should not be here, but is it because he is walking too arrogant ... ... Mr. Lee briefly obscured his judgment and looked at him for a few seconds.
"—You, you, what are you! "
He screamed a bit late, so.
However, the answers that appear are very absurd.
" ... ... I came to negotiate a hostage."
