BXBX NOVEL Chapter 113: Trinity Research Institute: 3rd Division (3)
The man was just trying to grant the earnest wish of his daughter who desperately wanted to see the Gray Reaper. He never thought something like this would be happening.
He thought the Trinity Research Institute would be the safest place to see the Gray Reaper, so he made a reservation to see the Gray Reaper, but… He and his daughter ended up being locked in a cage that was used to imprison countless terrified people.
In this dark situation, he could hear his daughter\'s voice which was filled with fear.
"Daddy…."
“It’s okay. It’ll be okay.”
The man suppressed his fear as much as he could and tried to comfort his daughter with his usual voice.
When the man saw his daughter\'s usual bright face stricken with fear, he felt regret once again.
It looked like no one related to Objects could be trusted!“This is kidnapping and confinement!”
“You guys are in big trouble! Do you know who I am?”
People who were angry because they couldn’t fathom what was happening made their voice heard. Before long, he was surrounded by a cacophony of protests and pleas from others.
As he held his trembling daughter closer, the man began to fall into deep thoughts.
It was obvious that the protests and anger of the imprisoned people would not make the situation better. In fact, the institute’s employees who were hanging around the room didn\'t seem to care about the protests.
Would such a threat really work against the people who dared to carry out this kind of kidnapping?
When the man saw the employees walking around confidently without even hiding their identities, he had a bad feeling.
Even mundane robbers would kill any witnesses who see their faces, so what would Trinity Research Institute employees do?
It would be reasonable to assume that they were going to kill them.
If they told him they would release him later, he wouldn\'t believe it.
At that moment, the numerous corruptions that were revealed during the collapse of the Central Research Institute came to his mind.
Instigation of murder, concealment of corpses, and using homeless people as food for Objects.
All kinds of terrible things came to the man’s mind before disappearing again.
It was a terrible case that occurred in the Central Research Institute, so it was a big mistake to believe that it would also happen at Trinity.
At that moment, a thunderous voice exploded right next to the man.
"You! I have remembered your face! Once I get out of here, you\'re done, you bastard!"
Those words came out with such a ferocious force that the man could feel the air being pushed out.
When the man turned his head to check, he could see a muscular, angry old man there.
The old man\'s face was distorted because of anger. It also turned bright red as he continued to threaten in a deafening voice.
He even took off his shirt and threw it at the researchers while screaming.
That shout became a catalyst for change in the attitude of researchers who had been indifferent until now.
Researchers who had maintained their cool attitude until now suddenly showed a change in behavior. Their eyes glinted dangerously as strange smiles began to spread on their faces.
At that moment, the man\'s primal protective instinct surged.
The man reached out to her daughter and held his daughter\'s hand tightly. Then, he made his way through the crowd with his daughter in tow.
He then hid among the people to avoid the intense gaze of the researchers and watch the situation unfold.
The researchers, whose attitude suddenly changed, slowly approached the old man.
After looking at the prisoners as if glancing around for meat at a meat shop, one particular researcher whipped his neck back and asked his colleagues.
“We don’t have to keep everyone alive, do we?”
“Huh? Y-yeah.”
At the same time, fear and shock spread among the prisoners.
It wasn\'t simply because of the scary words the researcher just said.
It was because the researcher\'s arm had transformed from that of a human to that of a monster.
Then, the researcher used the sharp nails on his grotesque arms to grab the old man tightly.
Crack-!
Before long, the sound of something breaking reverberated through the room.
The old man screamed in pain and begged for his life, but his neck was broken before long.
The researchers of Trinity no longer seemed like ordinary researchers.
No, they didn’t even look like humans.
Their expressions were twisted with malice and hunger.
Their bodies were also twisting grotesquely.
They were nothing but monsters.
Perhaps because the people had finally realized that the possibility of them coming out from this place alive was extremely slim, the inside of the cage became quiet.
Fear, shock, and despair spread in the prison together with the silence.
As fear consumed the prisoner, the man discovered a strange thing.
His daughter was staring at the floor.
“Daddy, the Reaper has appeared!”
His daughter did not pay attention to her surroundings, but just continued to look at one place.
It was a good thing that she had assimilated into the atmosphere around her and didn\'t panic, but what did she mean by the Reaper?
The girl then stretched her hands toward her floor.
In front of her stood a very small, blue Reaper.
*******As soon as the woman entered the containment room, she could see the Gray Reaper.
Even though the famous Gray Reaper was right in front of her, she didn\'t feel anything special.
< the="" most="" dangerous="" object="" in="" korea.="">
< Object with extremely high danger level. >
Although it was a being with numerous notoriety, she couldn’t feel the overwhelming aura unique to a \'Special Object\' from its body at all.
There was no violent force and no huge mass pressing down on the surroundings whatsoever.
*Is this really ‘Korea’s most dangerous Object’?*
It made her wonder if it was some kind of mistake.
The Gray Reaper in front of her was almost indifferent to its surroundings.
Even though it was looking toward her, its gaze was empty. Its face was also expressionless and it seemed to not care about what was in front of it.
But no matter how weak it looked, she couldn’t let her guard down.
Collecting her thoughts, the woman placed the bottle containing the evolution liquid on the table.
As she took a sip of the evolution liquid, she opened her mouth.
“Drink, Gray Reaper.”
After hearing the woman\'s words, some interest appeared in the Gray Reaper\'s empty eyes.
When the woman turned the screen on, the scene inside the prison appeared.
It was a prison with a dead man\'s body and people cowering in fear.
“I already know that you care about humans. Drink the evolution fluid. If you don’t, we will kill those humans one by one.”
According to the institute\'s analysis, the Gray Reaper appeared to have at least the intelligence to understand the situation. If that was not the case, then, it appeared to understand speech.
The Gray Reaper who cared about humans would have no other choice but to drink the evolution liquid.
It was an evolution liquid that eroded any Object, so the moment the Gray Reaper drank it, their victory was guaranteed.
As the woman drank the evolution liquid repeatedly, she pretended to ask the Gray Reaper to drink the evolution liquid.
What are you going to do about this answerless situation, I wonder?
However, the reaction that the Gray Reaper\'s gave was unexpected.
The Gray Reaper was still looking at the woman with a sour expression.
Does it still not understand the situation?
The woman gave her orders on her cell phone.
“Kill the hostage!”
If she repeated it until it understood, even an animal would understand.
The researchers who heard the command revealed their evolved true selves.
The researchers shown on the screen slowly approached the iron bars.
However, they were suddenly torn to pieces by streams of water gushing out from all directions.
“!!!”
What on earth is happening?
Unable to understand the situation, the woman looked towards the Gray Reaper and saw that the Gray Reaper was looking at the woman with a meaningful expression.
Did it use an ability that hadn\'t been reported?
The hostage situation ended in failure.
However, it just meant that there was no easy way. She was always confident to win in the first place.
“Everyone come out and kill the Gray Reaper!”
The walls on both sides of the containment room opened, and the evolved researchers entered.
They were expendable soldiers who had undergone brain surgery to suppress their fear.
Compared to formal researchers, they had no regenerative power and were comparatively weak, but they were numerous and strong enough.
When the Gray Reaper saw them, it looked into space with a slightly surprised expression.
What did it look at?
Its expression was too strange to say that it was surprising to see the soldiers.
The loyal soldiers followed the woman\'s orders and lashed towards the Gray Reaper with their vicious claws.
At that time, the Gray Reaper did something incomprehensible.
It spun around and applauded.
From that incomprehensible action, an incomprehensible result emerged.
The soldiers which were attacking the spinning Gray Reaper, suddenly attack each other and fall apart.
At first, the woman thought it was nothing but coincidence.
Even though it was an ability they had observed during its battle with the Hungry Ghost, at that time it was limited to just destroying the terrain. Even in the institute analysis, it was treated as a half-baked ability that couldn’t directly affect Objects.
The Gray Reaper jumped to the right twice, and stomped the floor.
Then, the soldier who was chasing it on all fours was caught in the strong wire and their neck was snapped and broken.
The soldiers were taken aback by the Gray Reaper\'s playful gestures.
It\'s ridiculous, the ability worked on Objects!
The Gray Reaper clapped its hands twice and held the wire with its fingers.
Then, wires came down from the ceiling as if it had exploded and electrified the remaining soldiers.
In an instant, about a dozen soldiers died.
However, the remaining soldiers were still charging at the Gray Reaper. It was just the woman who crept behind them.
After all, she realized that she could never win with the power of the soldiers alone.
Even though the Gray Reaper\'s gaze seemed to be looking at its enemies, it also seemed to be looking at something else.
At that moment, It felt like the reluctance she felt in her instinct was encroaching her whole body.
No matter how much she tried to suppress it with logic, her anxiety still refused to go away.
Just what on earth did the Gray Reaper look at?
The woman turned around at that moment and began to run away.
She needed to buy time.
So, she decided to run towards the security personnel.
If it was there, she could buy some time.
The director was the only hope to kill that monster!
Clap-! Clap-!
Thud-! Thud-!
As she watched the soldiers dying with only the sound of hand clap and feet stomping the floor, the woman began to run away in a panic.
*******As soon as the researchers received the call, they began to slowly approach the people inside the cage.
The researchers were no longer in their human form, they had turned into monsters who had shed their human appearance.
The moment all prisoners thought it was the end of the road for them, something strange happened.
An unidentified character that they couldn’t understood appeared in the air.
< 100="" needles="" made="" of="" water!="">
Then, a small stream of water flew out and left one researcher in tatters.
< 1,000="" needles="" made="" of="" water!="">
< 10 needles made of water! >
The blue reapers attacked the researchers by writing beautifully in the air.
But the researchers were persistent.
No matter how injured they were, they just regenerated and stood up again.
Their numbers were also numerous on top of that.
More researchers constantly poured out from the nearby buildings.
It was a number that 10 Blue Reapers could not possibly fight against.
Then, 10 Blue Reapers gathered together and wrote something big in the air.
< golem="" of="" the="" strongest="" being="" in="" the="" world,="" mother!="">
< Golem! >
A huge amount of water pooled in the air at that moment, casting a shadow on the ground.
Then, a huge 5m tall Gray Reaper-shaped mass of water roared.
“Boooooom!”
Before long, the Gray Reaper Golem turned the researchers into blood clots with its enormous mass and speed.
< mom="" is="" strong!="">
< Strong! >
After clearing the surroundings, the golem let out a loud roar again.
