Chapter 575 – 575. Ancient Mysteries
575. Ancient Mysteries
I got up from my seat and hit Bruno’s head, who was snoring and sleeping.
“Ouch! What are you doing?!”
“I woke up because some flying flies were gathering.”
“A fly?”
I pointed at the window with my thumb. Three red light planes are flying menacingly towards us.
Bruno hurriedly ran to the window. His face hardens seriously.
“Alchery…. I expected their interruption, but I never thought this would happen as soon as it started.”
Alchery.
It was the name of an organization that could be said to be the villain of this world. A group that discards morality and seeks to use ancient mysteries solely for the benefit of the organization.
“Mr. Bruno. Has information leaked out? A traitor…….”
Amy glances at me. They seem to suspect that I didn’t pass the information on to Alchery. In a way, it was natural. To Amy, she hadn’t been recognized as a colleague yet.
“He is not. If they betrayed us and handed over the information to Alchery, they wouldn’t have come to us in the first place. Amy. There’s a good chance there’s a traitor among your staff. Eugene’s job is to protect us. Don’t insult him.”
“…… Sorry. Eugene.”
Amy sincerely apologized.
“It’s because you can speak comfortably. Oh, I will accept your apology. But aren’t we too relaxed?”
Alcheri’s light plane was already right next to it. He was even carrying a weapon. If they attack or bump into each other like crazy, we have no choice but to die.
“You won’t die. If you were going to blow up this plane, you would have done it right away. You’re aiming for Amy’s map. The plane won’t blow up, but if it gets captured, the end is obvious. Vein!”
“Okay. What can I do?”
Mack said calmly. Do not panic even in this emergency situation. The seniority of a veteran was felt.
“Looks like we’ll have to escape by parachute. It’s good for a while in the right place, so take them away. If you move to the jungle, even they won’t be able to catch up.”
Said Mac, moving busily. He threw the parachute bag at me and Amy. He looked at Amy as he put on his parachute bag. A tense expression was evident.
“Ladies and gentlemen. Please forgive me for driving a little rougher from now on!”
It wasn’t just rough. The plane turned 360 degrees or even tipped to the side. Any ride would be nothing compared to this.
“Kuh….”
Amy loses her balance and is about to fall. He reached out and grabbed her waist. You can feel her well-built, strong abs that you can tell even from her clothes.
“It’s okay?”
“… Thanks let go.”
I let it go. She centered right away in the swaying plane. She is admirably athletic. That is for the general public.
“Now! Jump down right now!”
Bruno went first, followed by Amy. Next me, and lastly Mac jumped out. You’re being chased, so don’t deploy your parachute to the edge. When it comes to opening the parachute, follow Bruno.
Wow!
A roar rang out.
It was the sound of a jet crashing into a cliff and exploding spectacularly. I could see Alcheri’s light planes panicking. Well, it’s clear that they’ll follow us soon.
Parachuting down the jungle, we joined quickly.
“If we stay quiet here, the Alcheri guys will come after us and kill us. There is no time to send out a rescue request and wait for rescue. You have to move fast, even for a second.”
“I kind of knew it would turn out like this. Bruno. When I’m with you, it becomes a spectacle in many ways.”
“Vein. This is a serious situation. I couldn’t even bring half of the things I prepared for an emergency escape. Are you going to keep talking nonsense?”
“Sorry. It’s because the atmosphere has subsided. I thought I would float it.”
“Now the important thing is not the atmosphere. Amy. Could you show me a map?”
“Here I am. Mr. Bruno.”
Having received an old map from Amy, Bruno examined the map with serious eyes. Rather than interpreting the map, it is more like checking it. Interpretation must have been done a long time ago.
“We cannot conclude that there is only one map. Maybe the contents of the map were leaked and the Alcheri guys know about it. I’d better go back a bit. Move.”
I let out a small sigh. According to the contents of the original film, the door to hardships was opened for about three months.
‘There is an automatic progression, but I have to work on it myself to get Amy.’
I started walking through the jungle, imagining that hard-faced, stocky woman groaning wet beneath me.
•••
I wandered through the jungle for three days.
I couldn’t use the inventory, but thanks to Bruno’s thorough preparation, I managed to spend it well. But even so, it couldn’t be helped. If I hadn’t built up my body by exercising hard before coming here, I would have suffered more.
‘It’s no joke because you actually go through it when you watch a movie whose content is compressed to 2 hours.’
The jungle was too wide. I walked all day and didn’t feel like I was moving forward. I am managing my meals with emergency food. The problem was either a bug or a beast.
‘Ah-oh. The damn bug.’
The swarm of mosquitoes rushing in at any time makes you want to set fire to the entire jungle.
“Grrrrr.”
It’s a jaguar
I met a Jaguar. Jaguar kept a certain distance and looked out for us. Seeing that they didn’t run away, it seemed they judged us as prey.
“This….”
“Miss Bruno. Please solve it.”
“Eugene. Why are you pointing at me?”
“I hear you’ve faced a wild beast with your bare body. Isn’t Mr. Bruno an expert?”
“At times like this, it’s your job to step forward and protect us.”
“Because I was a former mercenary, I am not good at dealing with beasts.”
Bang!
A gunshot rang out and the Jaguar fell over.
Bruno and I looked at Amy. Amy had her pistol tucked into her thigh holder in her cool.
“Don’t make a fuss about a single beast, just move quickly.”
Amy spoke up and we moved.
Bruno was in the lead, and I was in the back.
I looked at Amy often. It wasn’t because of Bruno’s words to keep her Amy her first priority. She is a red point. Better to see her than to see her guys.
‘I think he would look better with long hair.’
Jungle Day 4.
I have a problem.
Mac is dead. It wasn’t strange. Mack was the unhappiest of us. The forced march for the past four days must have been very difficult.
“Should I carry it?”
I asked Bruno. I didn’t want to carry a boy on my back, but it was an emergency situation. Bruno shook his head.
“There are medicines, and even we might collapse from exhaustion. It’s my fault that Mack collapsed. He should have taken a break… You’ve become too impatient with Altery’s pursuit.”
Rest was decided.
I approached Amy who was washing her face in a nearby river.
“Amy.”
“Eugene? Do you have something to say?”
Her mood was softer than before. After suffering in the jungle together for the past four days, they became close to some extent.
“I’m curious about why you’re stepping out yourself. As the successor of the Wilkins Group, you didn’t have to act directly. It wouldn’t have mattered if I left everything to Bruno and waited in the hotel suite. Why did you come out yourself?”
“…… Am I disturbing you?”
“No. You’re doing good The only thing standing in the way now is Mac. I’m asking because I’m curious about why you, who have a lot of money and status, go through such hardships.”
Amy was silent for a moment, then she washed her face with cold river water and picked herself up. She has wet short blonde hair and a clean face. She almost ran out and almost attacked.
“You know I have a map, right?”
“You mean the treasure map that Altery is aiming for?”
“It’s her father’s memento. My father turned down the chairmanship and went looking for the treasure pointed to by this map. Then he contracted a rare disease and died. Even the moment he died, he thought of the treasure more than I did. I’m curious. What kind of treasure is it that you value more than your only daughter?”
“Why does it move directly?”
“Because my father might have liked the adventure itself. To feel how great the adventure is.”
“Are you enjoying the adventure?”
“…… I’m a bit regretful now. But why are you asking this question? What is your purpose?”
“My goal is to get to know you. I liked you Amy.”
“They probably liked my property, not me.”
“I am not interested in your property. If anything, you can write a contract.”
“Do you think I meet a guy like you once or twice? All the guys who approached me used to say that.”
“I am different from those things. I’m more interested in you than your wealth.”
“Eugene. We’re just a business relationship. Colleague. There is nothing more to do with it.”
Well. How would that be?
I smiled and followed her.
Next day. As if the medicine had worked, her pulse trembled and she woke up. We started moving again.
When evening came, it rained. How much it rains In less than three minutes, her clothes and even her underwear were completely wet.
‘Similar to the plane incident. It’s still the same as the original. Then… It must be today.’
I was more nervous than usual because I knew what was going to happen through the original work. Thanks to that, we were able to spot the group following us first.
“I am the enemy of Bruno.”
“…… Enemy?”
“It is coming this way. It’s about 10 people, and we’ll be seeing each other in about 20 minutes. They are professionally trained guys. Of military origin. Maybe a mercenary.”
“Okay. I’ll have to speed it up. I wish I could get away with it easily…. That would be hard Eugene. You haven’t forgotten what I said, have you?”
“You mean protecting Amy first? I didn’t forget. Don’t worry, even if Mr. Bruno dies, I will definitely protect her as much as Amy.”
“Great. You talk so pretty.”
We moved fast. Bruno roamed the jungle, trying to shake off his pursuers, but was unable. Trackers were also experts. Besides, we were now exhausted. Either way, the advantage was the pursuers.
“Bruno. Long time no see.”
I ran into the pursuers. We didn’t face each other right away, but there was a lot of cover called trees between them and us. The pursuers were armed like a military special forces unit.
“My back tickled, so I did something, but it was Ulfang. You still have that ugly face. The children will burst into tears as soon as they see you.”
“Half of the scars on my face belong to you. I’d like to give you that dividend, but if you hand over the map obediently, I’ll put it off for a later date.”
“How can I believe what you say when you’re looking at me like that?”
Ulfang grinned. He ordered his men around him.
“Don’t kill as much as possible. He may have hidden a map somewhere in the jungle. Even if you are caught and tortured, you must find the map. To move….”
Bang!
I pulled the trigger first. The bullet went right through the center of Ulfang’s forehead. Shortly thereafter, Urfang’s men pointed their rifles at me and opened fire in unison. Hiding behind a large tree, I quickly climbed up the tree and jumped to another tree like a monkey to attack the enemies.
There was a lot of cover, so you had to get close to kill it for sure.
‘This is a bit dangerous.’
If it seemed difficult, I immediately took advantage of the chalna.
When I pull the trigger once, an enemy is killed. Even though it moved vigorously, it never missed. It was rewarding to raise the shot.
3 minutes.
It took me a while to kill them all. There is no big difference between me and their physical abilities. But the software is completely different. There’s no way they can match the experience I have, and I also have a superpower called acceleration.
‘Originally, in this scene, Bruno uses his wits and runs away, and Ulfang doesn’t even die…. Well, I don’t intend to follow the original story frustratingly.’
I looked back.
Bruno, Amy and Mac. Everyone was staring at us with shocked eyes.
