Life Mission

‘What is this? What happened?’

Someone is supporting his body and running. He can see an incredible number of Lifers surrounding him beyond his battlesuit. Guessing by their battlesuits, they are all Lifers beyond level A.

“Odin. What’s the situation?”

[The Lifers in the area rescued you. They are currently running away from Evil Queen and after analyzing the conversations, the World Federation of this era saved you. You are currently on your way to World Federation’s headquarters.]

“Ack. I can’t.”

Things will get messed up if he just goes like this.

He’ll be caught in the supervisors’ monitoring network and he might meet the real Cha Jun Sung. An outsider needs to act like an outsider.

[Since this has ended up this way, do you want to regenerate your arm, replenish supplies, and kill Evil Queen with these people? This has already happened anyway.]

Odin is a helper.

Life Mission’s system is enormous. From this much exposure, he has probably already been found out by the supervisors.

[If you are with these people, the supervisors won’t appear in front of you. They don’t want the system to get tangled up.]

It is just a temporary measure, but they could buy some time.

It is just that he’ll be thoroughly monitored from now on. He’ll have to take care of it after that. Cha Jun Sung caught up with everything Odin was saying. It is too late to fix this. It’s a reality he can’t avoid unless he dies there.

The sound of an engine from the sky.

Cha Jun Sung took a glance. 10 sentinels settle down in a vacant lot. Lifers quickly board. There are exactly 1001 people.

The capacity for each is 100, but a few more can get on.

The sentinels take off and head toward headquarters. Lifers finally relaxed and took a breath.

“You felt it?”

“It was incredible. A skeleton monster...”

“I think that’s Bon Load. The name matches.”

Lifers chat among themselves. They eased their tension. They try to figure out the situation on their own.

Being big doesn’t necessarily mean strength, but from what they witnessed themselves of White Ghost, she has an energy that overwhelms Evil Queen. It is an energy that far surpasses what a level 8 should give off. This is the Amazon.

If they are sure that it’s a level 9, there is only Bon Load.

“It divided, right?”

They think of the scene they saw right before they ran away. The skeletons stuck to her bones fell off and transformed into things that looked like jellyfish. They were about medium-large sized.

“What proportion of the body’s power were the separated parts?”

“In Europe, a level 7 split into dozens of level 5s within a minute. The main body was weak, probably because it survived off separating.”

In exchange for the separations retaining special abilities, the main body is on the weak side. The separation of a level 9 will be different, but there is a strategy.

It didn’t take long for the sentinels to arrive at headquarters. They are fast planes flying in the sky, so they can travel long distances within short periods of time.

The area where they had been in battle is only 150km away from headquarters. It is a short distances for beings other than humans.

Evil Queen’s body is so giant that they will be able to see her shape from this distance with the aid of battlesuits and various equipment.

Weapon Master’s Universe Eye picks up Evil Queen in motion.

This will be her destination.

She doesn’t have a definite direction because she doesn’t have the location yet, but if she uses her splitting abilities to send out alters, it will be quick.

Strategist is prepared.

Lifers get off of the sentinels.

Headquarters is being packed up. While they were being dispatched, the remaining members and cyborgs had been preparing their retreat.

They can’t avoid fighting, but they need a bit of time. The only person who went up against her and survived is Cha Jun Sung.

They need to get information from him.

Even a single day would be good. That’s why they are moving to a different area that they had scouted. They can finish up clearing everything up in a few hours.

Cyborgs separate materials by type and Lifers sweep them into space compression bags. They aren’t packing them up because it would be a waste of points to leave them behind.

It’s because there’s a limit to the volume they could bring in.

If they don’t take all of this while they are staying in a mission long term, they will have to endure a lot of discomfort.

Rankers and Park Jin Hyuk’s group gather to Strategist. And Cha Jun Sung, supported by two people, came into the center.

“Jun Sung!”

“Jun Sung!”

Cha Jun Sng’s body slightly trembles.

They are voices that he couldn’t hear where he had come from even if he wanted to, voices he had not heard in so long that he had forgotten them.

They are familiar. His body remembers them. Cha Jun Sung can see his party members running toward him.

Park Jin Hyuk, Koharu, Violet, Basil.

He knows the first three from his former world, but he doesn’t have any particular relationship with the last. He didn’t show it. He can’t show it.

‘There are four of them.’

Cha Jun Sung realized that there are 5 people here who are with him now.

It wasn’t difficult.

It is a kind of boundary or line.

The rest didn’t say anything and just waited for them greetings to be over. This included Nine Tail and Light Shooter, his future colleagues as well. Cha Jun Sung wanted to greet them happily, but he couldn’t.

‘I’m a fake.’

He can’t forget who he is.

He can’t take the life of his own self. As soon as he decides to do so, he will be on a path of self-destruction.

“What happened? What happened to your arm? Why are you here?”

Park Jin Hyuk asked several questions at the same time.

Cha Jun Sung spoke carefully.

It’s because he doesn’t know what to say. His personality will be similar to his self in this place, but it is strange to explain the situation because their experiences were different. He’ll have to act injured.

“Ugh, my head...”

“He seems to be suffering from the aftermath of the explosion. First, let’s move.”

Strategist spoke.

He has questions just like Park Jin Hyuk, but their priority is to move their headquarters. This isn’t a good location to hold an extensive talk.

***

Jigneon showed interest in the absurd situation.

It has become interesting.

He had expected something like this to happen sometime.

“It’s inevitable that the past, present, and future get twisted when we are distorting dimensions and adjusting time. Now I know why he wasn’t registered.”

Jigneon smirked as he looked at Cha Jun Sung surrounded by World Federation’s Lifers.

His questions were answered all at once.

“The person that mutant Cha Jun Sung is looking for is his own self who has reversed time? Does that mean there are two of them in one era? Is it three including Black Lord?”

This is why he finds it interesting.

If you look at it this way, other Lifers have 1 person in each world as well.

But no one revealed this.

Only Cha Jun Sung. He has combined everything, so he will achieve the same results wherever he is.

He is quite fascinating.

“This is good for us.”

It isn’t bad.

They are reluctant to use mutant Cha Jun Sung in missions.

On the other hand, the sudden appearance of Lifer Cha Jun Sung poses no problems. It would have been an issue if the original Cha Jun Sung were to be active normally, but this isn’t the case.

His emergence could become the Joker card in Life Mission.

“Connect me to the situation room.”

Zing!

Jigneon is connected to the situation room managing Life Mission’s system.

It is controlling thousands of translucent holograms.

The computers of this era.

It is the central pillar overseeing everything including Lifer activity videos and equipment purchase lists.

“The work?”

[It is over. It was easy because it was in the middle of helpers. And he didn’t even refuse. It seems to have been planned.]

There aren’t just Lifers around Cha Jun Sung.

If there are 100,000 Lifers, there are also 100,000 helpers.

They are close to each other, so they are vulnerable to hacking.

Odin would have been able to defend themselves against it if he had been determined to, but he allowed it to happen. He will have his own plans. Jigneon hacked Odin’s code and registered him as a Lifer.

As a result, Life Mission came to manage two Cha Jun Sungs.

This is where it became important. They need to coordinate both by the mesotrons. They stopped mutant Cha Jun Sung’s duty and focused on Lifer Cha Jun Sung.

He recalls what Gabenu proposed. It sounded appealing after hearing it. It could be nonsense, but he does have a point.

“Evil Queen who fused with Bon Load has been deemed a level 10. There won’t be another opportunity for experiment like this. We might be able to end this.”

Even if there are level S missions left, it doesn’t matter if there are no Lifers to complete them. All that is left is Bloody Kingdom if the World Federation’s power dies here, but their situation is similar and the scale here is much larger.

“I was thinking of using mutant Cha Jun Sung, but shall we try this out first?”

They have two chances.

One of those will come up shortly.
