Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned!
Chapter 487

Episode 487:

A secret underground research facility in the city.

It was spread more like a labyrinth than I thought.

It was said that it was not dug deep, but spread widely throughout the city by taking advantage of the blind spot of an undetected spot.

The underground research facility in Parasol that Leon originally wanted to replace had already been abandoned once.

“There are even rumors that the parasols have sold their souls to the devil for ultimate research. Looking at it now, I can feel the aftermath.”

At Reyuri’s words, I glanced at Perserk.

‘I’m looking at your reaction. Ignore it.’

‘okay?’

“It’s fun because it’s a devil. Surely it would be true that putting such a monster into a normal person’s body would make Satan lose his job.”

“Shh… Quiet! I don’t know what’s really inside this, so please move quietly.”

At the words of one soldier, Leon nodded.

“that’s right. hey Davey. These bastards must have used plutium for research. Hopefully you’ll get what you want along the way to your destination.”

“That is fortunate.”

“It’s luck that higher mutations didn’t appear except once. I was lucky.”

Of course, he doesn’t know that I’ve taken care of everything before he even comes close.

Kwaaang!!!!

“Aagh!!!”

Of course, the threat was not entirely absent.

The place I am at has been completely destroyed from the inside due to some kind of division.

According to Leon, there were rumors that bioterrorism had occurred, and there were also rumors that internal managers rebelled and it took four months, but Leonhardt’s assessment was that the latter was highly likely.

“Ah… ah… my leg!!”

A soldier whose leg was bitten by one of the hidden mutants made a death sound and was in pain.

“shit! I was bitten!”

“Everybody back off!”

With a cry, Leon crushed the mutant’s head with the light-emitting weapon in his hand.

The moment the saliva is injected into the blood after being bitten by the mutant, the eggs of the parasite ride into the blood of the living person.

Then, the host stops life and becomes a mad doll.

The mutants that Perserk and I have seen will bite the living at random, but not because they are particularly hungry.

In fact, most of the cases were abandoned after biting to some extent and injecting eggs.

While watching him tremble bitterly, Reyuri pulled out a weapon and hung it around his neck.

“Without hurt…”

“Look out of the way.”

In response, I pushed away Reyuri and put my hand on the panting soldier’s leg.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

Black fog spreads.

At the same time, the mass of energy seeped into his body destroyed all the eggs of the parasite.

“it’s okay. Inject painkillers and stop the bleeding.”

“Right. Davey, you had the power to deal with that infection.”

At his words, I nodded quietly.

“Thank you! Thank you!”

The man crying and clinging to me showed how terrified he was at the moment he was bitten.

“Are you really strong?”

I nodded calmly at Leon’s words as he patted my arm and grinned.

“But what is that?”

“that? What are you talking about?”

“that.”

At my words, he quietly looked at the place I pointed to.

There, six man-tall pillars were tucked into a large water tank, like atomic waste rods.

“It is a self-generating facility. He’s probably the one who’s blocking this underground facility. The solution on the outside and the plutium on the inside react to create power.”

Regarding Reyuri’s explanation, I asked another question.

“So you mean you can come in from the outside the moment you open it?”

“As we entered, all the roads leading to the interior were additionally locked. Maybe turn it off or destroy it and the door will open.”

At that, I nodded.

So I’m not saying that all the rods in there are plutium.

“Why?”

I licked my lips with my tongue and shrugged.

* * *

Leon showed a neat way of handling things that could be called an expert.

Dividing the team using strange equipment, he made the decision to head underground to rescue the target as a starting point.

“Reggie, you and Davey take the elevator around here.”

“Is it a flutium containment?”

“I saw the blueprints on the way. As expected, it led there. It makes no sense to pamper yourself and not pay for it. Bring the things you need when there is no attack by mutants. I don’t know how you’re going to get it, but since you asked me to do it in the first place, I’ll focus on that.”

Nothing more was said.

Reggie, I, and Lune immediately separated from the group and started moving in a nearby freight elevator.

Of course, they had to be prepared before they fell into the trap.

Now I almost feel like I’m on a picnic. Even though Leon and others are risking their lives.

‘Stay by Perserk Leon’s side. If I send a signal, you can go wild from then on.’

‘Are you a headache manager?’

‘Please rampage in moderation.’

At those words, Perserk left me and stood on top of Leon while maintaining his Invisibility state.

Leon frowned as he smiled at her as he showed her making a circle with his small hands.

“Um… that smile is a bit awkward, isn’t it? I am not homosexual.”

“Do you have enough time to talk nonsense?”

At my words, he smiled pleasantly.

“I still don’t understand. Davey, are you really okay with that?”

The answer itself was simple.

After that, I started moving again with Reggie and opened the door to a nearby facility to replace a freight elevator.

“It’s really creepy. Although there is no infection.”

Reggie murmured as she looked out the window of the moving elevator making a quiet sound.

“But how are you really going to take it? If it is 1 ton, it is absolutely not an amount that can be easily moved.

“I know when I see it.”

At my words, he gave me a puzzled expression.

Afterwards, I looked at the green jewels on one side of the elevator.

It was very similar to Tionis’ Video Recording Stone.

Perhaps that invisible jewel is a material that absorbs light.

Reggie took out a small piece of paper from inside her bosom. There was a picture of a short woman with a man who looked like Reggie.

“This is my brother. I am 15 now.”

“You are pretty.”

“Haha, right? In fact, I intend to retire when this mission is over. I can’t worry more about my brother. Fortunately, the rewards for this mission are great, so once you’ve done this job, you can get a small house to live with Regina. A house without worrying about food rations.”

I smiled at the dream-soaked voice. People who die usually say that.

Kiyiying… Chwiiik!!

Steam spurted out and the elevator door opened.

“Im here. Fortunately, there seems to be no infection here either.”

He muttered, taking out a map and checking it here and there.

“It’s not far.”

It was as he said.

It was because after walking for about 5 minutes in a long underground corridor, a large warehouse was revealed.

Human Wanted was a warehouse full of boxes stacked at a seemingly gigantic height.

Reggie immediately checked the items in the box and nodded.

“It’s all pure plutium. It’s the first time in the world I’ve actually seen a sheep like this.”

At his words, I took out a plutium ingot and held it up.

It’s a weight that wouldn’t be strange even if it was heavy, but the plutium ingot I’ve heard in person was as light as a plastic toy.

“It will weigh about 1 ton only when all the plutium in the area is recovered. Did I tell you? It’s not something that humans can move on their own.”

It was as Reggie said. Even though humans cannot lift the weight of 1 ton, the volume is so large that it is beyond imagination.

Of course, if I didn’t know that fact, I wouldn’t have known about plutium in the first place.

“does not matter.”

When I said it calmly, Lynn came to me.

“Davey. Detect the noise.”

At her words, I nodded.

“Are you getting a little sore?”

“What…”

Kwaaaang!!!

With those words, a nearby door twisted open, and people dressed in black rushed in.

And then he puts on his unique weapon.

“Huh?!”

Startled, Reggie pointed her weapon at them.

There was an immediate sense of tension.

“Davey! come after me!! It’s a parasol!!”

As a result of his shout, a unique snake pattern was engraved on one side of the men’s black clothes.

“It’s the crest of a parasol. Where the hell did these guys come from?!”

It was Reggie who shouted with a shocked face.

“Where do you come in? You must have entered through the entrance.”

“It can’t be! As you saw earlier, the flutium control rod is inserted, so this facility is completely blocked from the outside…”

He said, looking at me with a hard face.

“Oh, I’m sorry, I pulled that out and stole it away.”

“Are you crazy!? We were also trapped, but on the contrary, we stole the object that prevented the outside enemy from entering?! Where is it!”

“Ah, calm down. It’s well hidden, so don’t worry.”

At my words, he made an expression that his clothes would burst.

For him to open the door for the enemy to come in, he couldn’t help but be stumped.

Of course, even if I hadn’t stolen it, it would have been opened anyway.

The men who surrounded us didn’t seem to want to attack right away.

Maybe to talk about something instead?

Among them, a man came out with something like a small crystal ball and rolled it at me.

It was like watching a wild beast.

“A communication tool?”

Realizing what it was, Reggie muttered quietly, and I picked up the marble.

It was similar to Tionis’ Mana Communication Orb, but the material was different.

Chijik…

Eventually, a faint light flowed from the bead, and a video began to emerge from it.

“Hmm… Ah, can you hear me?”

It was the first old man’s voice.

“Hmm, I’m called Dr. Fraun.”

An old man appeared in the crystal ball.

“Fraun?”

“Well, that’s what everyone calls them. As you can see, you belong to the same affiliation as the soldiers who surrounded you.”

At those words, Reggie’s eyes widened.

“Dr. Fraun!!”

“Hey, does anyone know me?”

“How can you not know who created this damn parasite!!”

“Whoa, calm down. You and I are just talking at a distance over electrical signals. Even though this body is mine, what you see is just an illusion.”

“shut up!”

Reggie screamed at the crystal ball in a rage. If left alone, it seemed like he would take out his anger on the crystal ball right away, but he couldn’t move easily because of the people holding weapons around him.

“I don’t know what they were thinking when they disabled the device blocking the outside and inside, but thanks to that, entry was easy.”

“It was nothing.”

At my words, he smiled contentedly.

“Then you must have known that we were keeping an eye on you.”

I nodded my head at Dr. Fraun’s words.

“okay. Those green gems.”

“Hoo. did you know It’s not easy to distinguish between those things that are usually secretly hidden.”

he is silent for a while

“Then let’s get to the point. Are you really human?”

“What is the purpose of the question?”

“Don’t think of lying. I’m sure I sent a bunch of mutants to kill that goddamn Leonhardt, including you. Those guys have never met you. Why do you think it is?”

At that, Reggie made a puzzled expression. Certainly, there were no mutants they saw on the way here, except for one Goliath-class giant.

“Why is it because everyone broke their heads before I came?”

“Yes.”

“What the hell, Mr. Davey…”

Reggie demanded an explanation, so I gestured for silence.

“The super soldiers we studied also have strength and speed beyond humans, but they can’t do ignorant things like you, and you are a different being than them. Like… yes, like the guy who helped create this parasitic virus.”

“I’m interested in that, but did you say that you are the princess of the abyss or the being of the abyss?”

“Hoo? How did you know that?”

With those words, I sent a very weak current through the crystal ball.

The structure is different, but the current signal is the same.

“So why did you contact me?”

“Nothing’s wrong. I will spare your life, so come here with them.”

“What if I refuse?”

“I have no choice but to die. No matter how strangely powerful you are, you cannot survive if you are under intense fire from dozens of people.”

At his words, the men in black all pointed their weapons at me.

Apparently, it is a weapon unique to this world that looks like a gun and shoots metal bullets that emit light. Basically, it feels similar to the old Muscat, but the bullets are considerably improved.

“Even if you survive from them, a single order from me could destroy the entire city. There is no way to escape. What can I do about this?”

With that said, I asked a question.

“Come to think of it, one of the women who came with us seemed like their boss.”

“Hey, did you replace out that far? amazing That’s right. Reyuri is a stalwart member of our organization, and she’s also reported on you. You should have overpowered them all by now, killed them, and stolen their antibodies.”

At that, I nodded my head.

“Let me ask you one last thing.”

“hmm?”

“This is the demon that helped you or whatever. Are you a man? Is it a girl?”

He gave me a puzzled look at my question.

“Hmm? That’s a bit of an odd question. It is a woman.”

It seems safe to look towards the Princess of the Abyss.

In the first place, there are many princesses of the abyss. The ones I have figured out are Uld, Verdande, and Slygia, who are already in my hands. There are many other princesses of the abyss, but I have only met the first three.

“Thanks for the conversation.”

“If you don’t say anything, the author will spare me if you cooperate.”

At that, I smiled.

“Cooperation is what I want to say.”

“what?”

“Thanks to a long useless conversation, I found your location.”

The crystal ball I was holding began to crack. At the same time, the face of an old man named Fraun cracked.

“What are you talking about…”

“Simple. Even this world uses electrical signals. I’m not a computer, so I can’t just replace it, but it’s possible if I camouflage the electrical signal through magic.”

don’t you understand?

I didn’t mean to understand, so it doesn’t matter. The gist was. It camouflages electrical signals through mana, lengthens them, and reverses the electrical signals received through the crystal ball. And replace a place to talk.

Exposed as they are because there is no magical element, they are hacked by me to the very end of their souls.

And there I could see

The existence of a strange magical power that distorts electrical signals.

In this world without mana, is there anyone who uses power based on non-physical laws?

Its identity is obvious.

Whether it was a parasol or a nabal, I didn’t know the location of their base, so this was the only way to replace it myself.

“Go and tell the Princess of the Abyss.”

“…”

“I’m going to replace you.”

Do you like to eat ground? This land is mine now.

Kwajik!!!

I can’t overcome the grip and the crystal ball is smashed.

At the same time, men in black prepared to attack me.

In fact, I thought that a parasol or something group would contact Leon.

Or did Reyuri neatly betray? Whatever it was, I had a hint of it, so I even attached Perserk to keep an eye on her.

Actually, these guys called Parasol seemed to be interested in me, not over there.

“Get down!!!”

At that moment, Reggie, who was still, threw herself and pushed me away.

Normally, he would have planned to attack me from behind, wrap himself around me as if to protect me, and lay down, but unfortunately, his actions did not push me away.

In the end, Reggie and I both ended up standing still.

ping!!! Geeeeing!!!

At the same time, the concentrated fire of those dressed in black began to pour out.

Reggie, who had been stiff, screamed and fell on her face alone, holding her head with both hands and screaming.

And after a long shelling, the attack stopped.

could see all

“No matter what, the gunpowder method is similar.”

A bullet that emits light that has stopped in midair.

And me who grabs one of the bullets and spins it around like a joke.

After that, I put my index and middle fingers to my ears and said quietly.

“Perserk. it’s me. He has nothing to do with him anymore, so pack everything up and come over here. Oh, and, if possible, take care of whether it is the antibiotic or the nabal.”

At my leisurely words, everyone including Reggie looks at me with bewildered faces.

“What the hell…”

All the bullets of the threatening weapon stopped before I could even close them.

Seeing their disbelief in the reality in front of them, I waved my hands leisurely.

Do-do-do-do-do-doo-doo-doo-dudduk!!!

At the same time, all the chunks of metal floating in the air crashed.

Reggie stared at me with her eyes wide open as if they were about to tear in a scene that seemed like something out of a movie or a novel.

The way he looked at me was like seeing a ghost.

“what are you doing. I heard that my sister is waiting for me when I go back.”

“yes yes?”

“That’s great.”

I said calmly and turned around.

Those who were attacking me did not take additional attacks on my actions.

“Go out and activate the elevator. I’ll just take the plutium and leave.”

Can we just leave the plutium, which was the original purpose?

I’m sorry, but this Princess of the Abyss is just a sub target.

He asked me with a puzzled expression.

“What are you talking about? They’re still in good health…”

“Are they in good health?”

I interrupted him and pointed with my thumb at the men in black who stood firm behind me.

“who?”

blah blah…

at the same time.

Red solid lines formed on the bodies of the men who were besieging us and began to crumble.

On one side, Lynn was neatly brushing off the lightsaber that had formed on the back of her hand.

“My God… what am I looking at?”

Lynn muttered with a sad face at Reggie’s frightened muttering.

“Lynne underestimates those who attack Davey. The emotional circuit is rapidly heating up. This is judged as anger.”

It was a calm voice.
