Chapter 255: For the new life (1)

-The Red Cross has sent the second group of doctors! Empress Jasmine is in command herself!

-The Empress is at the warzone!

-Khalodians have defended Lown Peak!

-The Katzback Kingdom is in disarray!

-Monsters in the Dentrion Kingdom!

-Refugees from all sides are coming into Khalodian!

Various rumors and news had spread throughout the Khalodian Empire. People were shocked that the Empress herself had left for war. It wasn’t like the past where people had to be conscripted to fight a war. Everyone was eager to fight to defend their empire.

Small monsters scattered as bigger monsters appeared. They were powerful with thick hides that allowed them to withstand a lot of attacks.

“It’s too much.”

“It seems like more are coming through now.”

The number of monsters that appeared through the Gate increased by the day. It started with hundreds, but now it had reached tens of thousands.

“S-snake!”

A snake appeared through the Gate. However, it was gigantic even though its head was poking out of the gate. The small monsters that just stepped out of the Gate began to flee from the snake.

“Huh?”

“They’re afraid?”

Ron and Vetra, the two men who were assigned to the underground bunker to keep an eye on the Gate, became confused. These small monsters fled from the bigger monsters, but they were never afraid. Yet they were terrified when the snake appeared.

At that moment, the snake opened its giant mouth and shrieked. The monsters then stopped immediately as if they had become stone statues; the only ones that continued moving were the huge monsters that did not seem to care.

Along with the snake, the bigger monsters began to devour the small monsters that had stopped and were completely still.

“Hmm. That’s interesting. I’ve never seen them so afraid.”

“We should report this. And that screech too.”

“Yeah. Maybe if we can replicate that sound… it might become a useful weapon.”

As they talked, the monsters moved away deeper into the forest and disappeared, the area turning dead silent. It was a usual sight for the two. Vetra sighed and nodded to Ron.

“Okay, let’s call HQ.”

“Yes-”

However, before Ron could move to the communications, he stopped at a weird sound and turned. Vetra gasped as both of their eyes opened wide in shock.

“W-What’s that?”

“H-human. It’s humans!”

“Black hair?”

They saw hundreds of people jump out of the Gate, using guns to kill any surrounding monsters.

“Soldiers!”

“T-those are the people from Joonbum’s homeworld! Aren’t they, Vetra?”

The two Ainos recognized humans. The Ainos were the first ones to experience items from Earth from the beginning, so they knew a lot about the world where Joonbum had come from. These two had grown up with that knowledge and were bound to know who those people were.

There weren’t only humans that came out. Giant buses, tanks, and different machines also appeared through the Gate.

“T-that’s a tank!”

“Yeah! It’s moving too!”

They were witnessing vehicles that they had only ever seen through videos.

“That’s a motorcycle!”

Hundreds of soldiers quickly moved and wiped out any remaining monsters and then began securing the area. As the soldiers signaled the all-clear, giant trucks began moving in.

“Wow, that’s an RPG!”

“They have old and new weapons.”

Ron and Vetra examined the people carefully. They had already been informed that there might be people coming through the Gate sometime soon.

“Ron, count how many people there are and check their weapons.”

“Yes, sir!”

There were a lot of them. The number had already surpassed well over five hundred, with tanks and armored vehicles along with them.

‘They’ve fought through hell.’

All the trucks, tanks, and even people were covered in blood, showing traces of a fight.

“W-what should we do?” Ron asked shakily.

Vetra answered, “We’ll talk to them.”

“But-”

“That flag. That’s from the Republic of Korea. It’s the emperor’s home. We recognize their language too.”

Vetra then utilized the machine inside to speak into the microphone.

-H-hello! Are you all from the Republic of Korea?

“W-what! Where’s that coming from?!”

“H-human?”

“Check the trees! The sound came from there!”

Soldiers began to search the area frantically and soon found the speaker hidden high up on a tree. They look tense as Vetra spoke in a calmer tone.

-I am Major Vetra of the Ainos Guard of the Khalodian Empire. You all are now in our territory. Please identify yourselves. We know about your homeworld, Earth, so your nationality would be enough.

The soldiers then began to visibly relax. Some seemed to be very surprised.

“How does he know us?”

“He speaks Korean!”

“So ‘he’ was right.”

“Khalodian Empire? Ainos Guard?”

“Oh! This is from our world!”

The soldier who found the speaker shouted as he examined and identified the speaker.

Chulmin spoke in a rough voice, “I am Major Lee Chulmin from the Republic of Korea Army. We have civilians and soldiers alike from various nationalities. We have no intention to invade your territory and only came here to flee from those monsters. We have seniors, pregnant women, and children starving in our trucks. Please, help us! We are in dire need of assistance.”
