I Picked a Mobile From Another World

Episode 180 [ Went on the road (3) ]

Pentacon.

The Ministry of Defense building of the world’s most powerful country, which boasted of being sturdy even during the 9/11 terrorist attacks, looked as if it had been bombed.

Half of the pentagonal building was left without any shape, and the other half was reduced to ruins.

Kyung-hoon clicked his tongue as he looked at the broken building.

I stopped by in the hope that I might be able to get some useful information, but it seemed like I was just wasting my time.

“We have to spend the night anyway, so let’s stay here for the night.”

Shane put the gun on his shoulder and entered the half-destroyed building.

Kyunghoon was secretly grateful for Shane’s consideration.

Shane also wanted to go to New York as soon as possible, so he agreed to stop by Washington.

Kyunghoon also followed in Shane’s footsteps.

“Something has to come out…”

– We need information about where the monsters started attacking and how it progressed.

This world lived well for quite some time even after the cataclysm.

At some point, that world was destroyed by the monsters’ attack. It was abandoned.

It was clear that finding out where it started and how it progressed would be of great help in protecting the other world.

They quietly searched the destroyed building.

It was one of the largest and most spacious buildings in the world, but there were not many walls left.

Discovery . There wasn’t much.

“A bunch of old film and a mess of documents. A few discarded magnetic tapes, maybe.”

Kyung-Hoon scratched his head as he looked at the pile of garbage he had collected.

It didn’t seem easy to find something in this pile of garbage. But it wasn’t Kyung-Hoon who did the work.

Kyung-Hoon placed his hand on the pile of garbage. The space under his palm quivered. Garbage They disappeared into subspace.

When I looked around, night was already deep.

“Are you going to take them back?”

In response to Shane’s question, Kyung-hoon shook his head.

“No. I don’t plan on leaving until I get to New York.”

There was no reason to go over and no intention to go over.

The agreement with the independent state of Manchuria was finalized. Japan remained, but there was no way something could happen in a day or two.

And with New York just around the corner, there was no time to worry about anything else.

The wall where Shane collapsed . He sat down and leaned against the wall. He placed the gun against the wall and looked toward the east.

“You’ll be safe, right?”

The puppy took a seat next to Shane, and Kyunghoon also sat down on the opposite wall.

“You’ll be safe.”

However, Shane, Kyung-hoon, and even Eve did not see much of a chance that the survivor would be safe.

She was the survivor who had been broadcasting safely for that long.

It had already been a long time since the broadcast stopped. If she was alive, it was clear that she would have started broadcasting again.

“What kind of person is this?”

“Well, it seems like he’s hiding as much about himself as possible…”

Despite several conversations using Morse code, the survivor didn’t reveal much:

“It’s only natural. We didn’t tell you that Shane and Eve aren’t human.”

In addition, he didn’t say that the dog he was accompanying was not an ordinary dog.

[Looking at the other person’s response, it seems more likely that he is a woman than a man. He doesn’t seem to be older either…] ”

And it seemed like he knew Bailey. .”

It was simple Morse code, but the moment Shane asked and heard the dog’s name, he seemed to sense the other person’s emotions. Although

he may not have actually felt the emotion, but rather analyzed it through past experiences.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

Shane tried to understand what he was feeling.

“Are you also a survivor of LA City?”

“Well…”

The group stopped talking for a moment.

Beep profit.

This was because a sound like a flute was heard from afar.

[This is a sound made from the vocal organs of a living organism.]

The story was that it was a sound made by a monster.

[And the same sound is not included in the encyclopedia.]

“So you’re saying it’s not an ordinary monster, right?”

Contrary to my expectations, I didn’t see many monsters upon entering Washington, but it seemed like they had finally appeared.

“Hmm, what should I do?”

“It would be hard to ignore, right?”

The sound was not only coming from one place.

Beep beep beep beep beep.

The number of places to be heard increased and the location changed. The sound of the flute was like a searcher searching the city.

Bailey also perked up his ears.

“I think I might be able to avoid being detected if I wear a stealth cloak. “It looks like it’s going to be difficult to sleep.”

Eve and Shane didn’t sleep, but Kyunghoon and Bailey were better off sleeping.

“It’s a bit of a hassle to have New York in front of you, right?”

Shane nodded at Kyunghoon’s words.

With the group’s skills, it seemed unlikely that they would lose in a fight, but they couldn’t make a fuss with their destination in front of them.

“Unfortunately, the search in Washington must end here. Let’s get out of the city quickly before that sound gets closer.”

Kyunghoon and Shane got up from their seats. As soon as

they got up, Bailey also got up.

Beep.

The sound didn’t stop.

Growling.

Bailey seemed to be irritated and lifted his wings from his body. He pulled it out.

Then he opened his mouth in the direction from which the sound was coming from.

Woof! Woof! Woof! Kyung

-hoon held his forehead at the sudden cry.

“I thought you understood what I was saying…”

It became urgent. The group ran to the car.

Srurr.

And the car the group was in left the Pentagon immediately.

*

The girl suddenly opened her eyes.

“Bailey?”

I thought I heard a dog sound.

She held on to her cloak to keep it from falling and pulled herself up.

It was still dark outside

and bleep. Beep profit.

Only the monster’s signal continued to be heard.

“dream?”

The girl sighed.

It seemed like I was dreaming.

It seemed like his body had become very weak. I even dreamed a dream I never dreamed of.

She lay down again.

The place I was now was the 10th floor lobby of a building with a broken staircase. At best, I found a place to rest, but I needed to regain some of my stamina.

She closed her eyes and tried to force herself to sleep.

At that moment,

wow! bruise! bruise!

The dog sound was heard again. This time it wasn’t a dream.

She jumped up. Her cloak was falling down, but she couldn’t even think of removing it.

She frantically ran to the window where she heard the sound. It was a 10th floor high window so I could see outside.

It was full of darkness outside, but it was meaningless darkness for her as an awakened person.

A large forest was visible beyond the open window.

It was originally famous as Arlington National Cemetery, but has now turned into a dense forest.

And beyond that, there was a large strange-looking building.

She didn’t know what building it was, but it was what people called the Pentagon.

Unfortunately, the sound was not heard again. But it definitely came from here.

“I have to go.”

She stuffed her things into her bag and started down the stairs.

It was a dangerous night with pursuers still on the loose. But she had no choice but to go.

The girl left the building and crossed the forest.

Beep! Beep!

The sound of the flute continued to be heard. The sound was getting closer and closer to her.

The girl gritted her teeth and hurried her steps.

Sigh.

The young trees growing between the marble plates with the names of meritorious people engraved on them continued to block her path.

I kept looking at the forest as I ran, but I couldn’t hear the dog.

Bailey was nowhere to be seen.

We came out of the forest in an instant. A half-ruined pentagonal building was visible across the wide road.

She ran to the building with her last hope.

After crossing the road, the girl arrived in front of the building.

A building that is in ruins and the inside is clearly visible. No one was visible inside.

She looked around.

All I could see was a parking lot and a road filled with abandoned cars.

And next to where she was standing, newly made wheel tracks continued straight into the road.

These were wheel marks made by an electric car that had left a while ago.

Although the tracks had been made some time ago, she did not know how to distinguish between wheel tracks.

“Bailey!”

I shouted out loud. But there was no answer.

Pop. Pop.

Tears fell on the floor.

Bailey wasn’t there.

Did I hear it wrong? Was I dreaming again?

She wiped away her tears. I was trying not to cry, but I started crying a while ago.

She sat down on the floor.

It was hard. My body was heavy. I’m exhausted.

The adults were right.

‘You can’t get your hopes up. Disappointment will eat you up.’

‘There is no hope. The moment you have hope, despair will laugh at you.’

I lived my life believing what my mom and dad said, but this time I felt like I was wrong.

Beep! Beep!

The sound of the flute reached her ears again. She lifted her head.

The sound of the flute was close.

“Oh, no.”

Only then did the girl realize what she had done.

He ran this long distance at night, swarming with pursuers, and shouted the dog’s name.

There was no way I wouldn’t be caught.

“I have to run away.”

She tried to get up. But my body didn’t listen.

The floor was shaking and my body was hot. My bandaged arm felt like it was burning.

Although awakened people were much stronger than ordinary people, that did not mean they could not get sick.

The girl barely got up, trembling.

Beep! Beep!

The sounds of flutes were heard from all directions. Before we knew it, we were surrounded.

She headed toward the half-destroyed building. I didn’t know if there might be a place to hide inside the collapsed building.

She put her hand on the wall. The interior was pictured in my mind.

‘It’s empty.’

Maybe it was because I was sick, but I couldn’t see far, but the first floor was empty.

The wall trembled and she slipped into it.

*

First floor of the Pentagon North Building.

The girl who jumped out of the wall barely managed to stop herself from falling.

It wasn’t safe yet. I had to find a place to hide quickly.

‘The basement will be safe.’

She put her hands on the floor.

“Ah…”

But the girl froze with her hands on the floor.

She couldn’t see. She couldn’t see what was inside.

The inside of her body was empty. She had run out of mana.

She wasn’t feeling well so

she didn’t notice. looked around with a pale face.

The sound of the flute was no longer heard.

Clap-clap-clap.

Instead, I heard footsteps. I felt a disgusting smell.

Boom!

The door was broken. They came in.

Ratman.

Rusty window and monster skin. Rat people wearing clothes came in.

Squeak.

They had the same faces as rats, but they were as tall as adults and stood up straight on two feet, so they looked more like people.

The girl looked at the rat men blankly.

It was the first time she had seen them this close.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

A huge figure came in behind the rats that came in first.

This time it was a rat man more than twice as big. The ceiling was over 3 meters high, but it felt like his head was going to hit. The

new rat man was holding a heavy mace in his hand.

Beep.

The big rat man looked at the girl and made a piping sound.

The corners of the rat man’s mouth went up. Ratman was smiling.

‘Please, please move!’

The girl did not give up even when rat men surrounded her.

Even if her mana was empty, her traits didn’t move, her body hurt, she was discouraged and disappointed, she had no intention of stopping.

If I had just given up, there is no way I would have survived by hiding behind the wall alone on the day my mom and dad died.

There was no way I could have endured this long alone.

‘in action! in action!’

But today Mana seemed to have ignored her.

Even when the monster approached with a mace, she couldn’t see anything.

The mace rose upward.

‘Is this really the last time?’

She muttered softly as she watched the falling mace.

” I wanted

to

see Bailey…”

Bang

!

The

ground shook

.

Pwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

?

Yiiuing.

And a black machine with red eyes flew through the dust.

Creep! Ta-ta-tang!

I heard the sound of a sword swinging and a gunshot.

Kwaaaa!

I heard a monster shouting, and through the dust I saw a big Ratman falling backwards. The dust began to settle.

The

girl stared blankly ahead. It seemed like she wasn’t dead yet.

As far as she knew, Heaven wasn’t such a noisy place. There

was another monster standing in the place where the fallen Ratman had been

. It was a huge lion with wings.

The girl looked at the lion blankly.

The lion also looked at the girl.

The girl opened her mouth.

“Bailey?”

The lion gradually shrunk in size. The wings disappeared and the fur became shorter.

Woof! Woof!

The puppy jumped into the owner’s arms.

Weeeeee.

The drone stopped in front of them.

[Body temperature normal. Eye color normal. Human.]

Eve’s The voice felt warm.

[Survivors found.]
