Chapter 164: Surprise Attack 3

Translator: - - Editor: - -

Junhyuk looked at his car.

"I should walk home."

"I’ll call you a cab."

"No. It’s not that far. I could run home, and the situation with the roads won’t be good for cars."

The highway was completely shut down. There were big accidents, and the roads were a quagmire. Like Junhyuk had said, it wouldn’t be a good idea to walk home.

"You might be in danger. You’ll need a security team to go with you."

Junhyuk shook his head.

"I wasn’t their target. Things just happened that way, but they won’t come after me again."

Eunseo looked around. There were just enough security team members to guard her. The others were out.

"When you get home, send me a text message."

"I will."

Junhyuk said goodbye and headed out. She watched him leave through the front gate and entered the building. Elise was looking at the information on the monitors with Zaira’s help. Eunseo walked in, and Elise turned to look at her.

"Zaira, check the CEO’s condition."

A light came down and scanned her from head to toe.

[Her body has finished recovering. There is some bleeding, so she should be in the infirmary.]

Eunseo shook her head.

"I won’t got to the infirmary," she said. Then, she looked at Elise and added, "Did you find out who was behind this?"

Elise looked at the monitors and said, "All five of them belong to China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), the Chinese intelligence and security agency. They quit their posts sometime between five and ten years ago."

The screen displayed the pictures of their work as spies. Eunseo looked at them and asked, "Where did you get this information?"

"We hacked the MSS, but we have had a hard time tracking their actions. They all quit their posts, so it’s hard for us to find out what they’ve been doing since then. Their information is all analog, so even Zaira can’t hack the system."

"So, China is behind this?"

"Do you want to me investigate Jowee Jhang?"

"I want everything on him."

Things had changed since the negotiation with China. Former MSS agents were behind the surprise attack, and this could mean a diplomatic war. South Korea had little to gain from a diplomatic war with China. Guardians wasn’t a part of South Korea and didn’t have its military backing. They worked for W.A.N.C.S. and the U.N., and China had tried to assassinate the Guardians’ CEO.

They had failed, so it was time to find out who was responsible. For that, Eunseo and Elise needed evidence.

"What about the scene of accident?"

Elise smiled.

"The TV stations are going crazy. The news is going out worldwide."

Three stations were covering the incident, and the international news was showing the scene. It had to be that way. There had been seventy-two crashes and a shooting on South Korean soil. With the target being the Guardians’ CEO, everyone was in an uproar.

Eunseo looked at the monitors and asked, "What is that?"

Elise smiled.

"Someone on the scene filmed it. It’s all over internet."

Junhyuk was fighting the agents. Eunseo hadn’t expected him to be such a good fighter, and her mouth hung wide.

"It’s on the internet?"

"It’s spreading like wildfire."

"Erase everything."

Elise turned to look at her.

"Are you sure?"

"Erase all the files. Can you erase other people’s files?"

Elise smiled.

"You know I can," she said and touched the screen. "Zaira, you heard her!"

[I will begin.]

Many other screens were on playing the video all over the internet. Elise handed Eunseo a cup of coffee while Zaira deleted all of the files online. Eunseo took the coffee, and Elise smiled.

"Warm yourself."

She nodded and heard Zaira’s voice.

[I’ve blocked all files, and 123,582 downloaded files are being chased and deleted. Also, I deleted the original file. I will also block similar files on the internet.]

Eunseo nodded and sipped her coffee. She felt her body warming and looked at Elise.

"I must go to the hospital and check on Dohee."

"I’ll alert the security team and call for a helicopter."

"Sora Shin’s power wavelength detector... how long before it is complete?" Eunseo asked nonchalantly.

"Basically, we have a short range detector, but we’ll have to wait for a long range one. When we complete the long range detector, we will send one to each of the Guardians’ bases."

She heard that, handed Elise the cup back and said, "We will talk more after the hospital."

Junhyuk walked home. The highway was completely sealed in an entire different way from being empty of cars like most days.

He thought about what had happened that day.

"Jowee Jhang."

He thought of China and that man. Jowee had to be behind all of that as there was no other person who wanted the Guardians CEO dead.

At that moment, Guardians was a hot-button issue. The world was watching the Guardians CEO, so Jowee had to be very audacious.

Junhyuk looked to the East and clenched his fists. Jowee hadn’t come after him, but he couldn’t let it be. He was deep in thought about the men when his burner phone rang. Junhyuk picked it up, and Sarang sounded very worried on the other side.

"Big brother, are you OK?"

"Me? I’m fine."

"I saw it on the internet. Didn’t you get hit by a bullet?"

"Yes, but I’m OK."

"Really?"

Junhyuk pressed his fingers against his eyelids and answered, "Yes. It’s probably because of my items’ defenses."

"Phew! Big brother, your internet videos have all been erased. Everyone is curious."

"What are you talking about?"

"The files concerning you can’t be uploaded to the internet. All files are being deleted. Nothing concerning you can get on the internet."

"People can’t upload anything?"

"Yes. Nobody can upload, and everything is being deleted. Do you know what’s going on?"

He shook his head and thought of something. He knew of something that could monitor the internet and delete files. The Guardians’ supercomputer Zaira could do it, but he hadn’t expected that.

He wasn’t sure if Zaira could get in to personal computers and delete files.

"I can guess, but I’m not sure. I’ll call you back."

"OK, but who is behind all this?"

Junhyuk clicked his tongue.

"Guardians had problems with China. I think it’s the Chinese."

"Then you should’ve been more careful. The videos showed you beating the crap out those people, so they might come after you again."

"Then, they must know who they’ve awoken."

Junhyuk thought of what Artlan had told him. He must kill those who come after him, and Sarang realized what he was thinking.

"Big brother! When is your housewarming party?"

"Housewarming party?"

"You moved, so you have to invite people over! Are you thinking about not inviting me?"

Suddenly, he felt more relaxed.

"I’ll invite you."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Jeffrey was living next door, but he could teleport in and out of his house without anyone noticing, and he had to include Sarang in any housewarming party.

"I’ll invite you for this weekend."

"You promise? I’ll have time this weekend."

"Yes."

"Then, talk to you later."

Feeling more relaxed, he hung up and kept walking. Once he got home, he turned the TV on. All stations were covering the seventy-two crashes on the highway and the shooting incident that took place on broad daylight.

Junhyuk opened a can of beer and watched the TV.

There were seven dead and eighty-three wounded. It was a disaster. He drank his beer and crushed the can.

"They’ve caused this disaster!"

In fact, they had only come after Eunseo. If Junhyuk hadn’t attacked, the casualties would’ve been lower since no one would’ve made U-turns on the highway.

However, he blamed everything on them.

He teleported to the refrigerator, took out another can of beer and drank it all in one shot. Junhyuk connected his smartphone to the TV and brought up the materials Zaira had sent him.

He summoned his swords and trained while watching the videos. He was able to mimic a few movements, but he had to adapt them to his style.

Not everyone had humanoid forms at the Dimensional Battlefield. Doctor Tula had eight legs, and Bater was much bigger than him. The videos showed fights against human enemies, so he had to adapt them to nonhuman entities. Junhyuk imagined an enemy and adjusted the movements.

His swords soundly split the air.

Eunseo was sitting on her wheelchair in front of the operating room. The Regeneration Project couldn’t be known to the world yet, and since she had been shown riding her wheelchair already, she couldn’t walk around normally.

She waited until a doctor came out and spoke to her, "The tough part is over, but even if she recovers, she won’t be the same."

"Is there a problem?"

"We pulled a bullet out of her spine, and she will be paralyzed from the waist down."

Eunseo touched her head and asked, "She’ll be like me?"

The doctor looked grave and nodded.

"It’s a miracle she survived."

Eunseo sighed deeply.

"She’ll survive?!"

"Yes."

"Can you transfer her?"

The doctor was surprised by the question and answered, "She’ll survive, but transferring her is difficult."

"Give her whatever she needs."

The doctor nodded.

"I will do my best."

He went back to the O.R., and Eunseo took out her cell phone and called someone. It rang three times before she heard Doyeol’s voice.

"I’ve been calling you. What happened?"

"Some people shot us. My cellphone was destroyed in the process."

She had gotten a new phone from the security team.

"Elise told me what happened. Jowee is behind all of this?!"

"Yes, I already ordered an investigation."

"I’ll look into it as well."

"Thanks, big brother. I must ask you a favor."

"Anything."

"Dohee was hurt protecting me. She’s a paraplegic now, and I want to help her."

Doyeol was silent, and Eunseo continued, "Without her, I would’ve been killed."

"OK. I’ll get things ready."
