Chapter 180: Chapter 180
AS SOON as Wonhee changed into more appropriate clothes for someone visiting a patient in the hospital, she left Semi’s house with Yejun and Ahyeon.
Surprisingly, APA had the budget to put Lee Seojin in a VIP room.
To be honest, she called the hospital director as soon as she heard that Lee Seojin was in a coma. She asked the director to move the boy to a VIP room and give him the best treatment. However, the hospital director said that APA had already done everything she asked.
[Lee Seodam must be that important to APA for them to give his younger brother the VIP treatment.]
But she was grateful for that.
It was Lee Seorin, and she wasn’t alone.
"Our Seojinnie fell asleep after his seizure," Lee Sook-ja said. "But come in. He keeps calling your name every time he wakes up."
Wonhee wondered why Lee Seorin and Lee Sook-ja couldn’t look at her properly.
It wasn’t because of shame, though.
[They’re scared of Yejun.]
She told Yejun to behave, but she should have known that his mere presence was enough to make Civilians tremble.
"Thank you for greeting us here," Wonhee said politely. "We’re coming in now."
YOOL didn’t have the time to respond to Song Moonho because, all of a sudden, Captain Lee Jiho grabbed him by the arm and dragged him out of the church.
The captain was standing behind them, so he definitely heard Ahjussi’s warning.
"Everyone, run!" Captain Lee Jiho yelled as soon as he opened the doors. "Hunter Song Moonho is about to go on a rampage!"
Yool was surprised since this was the first time he saw the captain in a panic.
[He was always calm and collected every time I saw him on the news before.]
As far as he knew, authorities shouldn’t be yelling that a dangerous S-Class Hunter was about to go berserk to keep the Civilians calm.
[But I guess we don’t have time for that.]
The Civilians panicked for a moment.
However, the Special Forces Agents immediately took action and guided everyone to safety.
Before knew it, he was already standing behind Captain Lee Jiho.
And it wasn’t just the captain.
The Special Forces Agents lined up and created a human barrier to protect the Civilians behind them.
Then each agent took out a baton.
Yes, a baton. Call it what you may— a nightstick, a truncheon, a stick.
[But what can a baton do in this situation?]
Yool was ashamed for doubting the agents because of what happened next.
The Special Forces Agents then got down on one knee and struck the ground with the baton at the same time.
When the batons were firmly pierced through the ground, the ’magic’ happened.
Rays of bluish lights appeared and scattered in the air.
And then the little blubs of blue lights came together until they formed a semi-transparent barrier shaped like a curved wall.
It was indeed a shield.
[This is one of Yeon Soobin’s inventions to help the Special Forces protect themselves and the Civilians in case of an emergency.]
Fortunately, the Special Forces Agents immediately built the barrier.
Because, seconds later, the church suddenly exploded.
If there wasn’t a shield, then the Civilians would have been hit by the huge debris.
They weren’t completely safe, though.
The ground shook hard after the explosion, causing people left and right to fall.
Even Yool almost fell down.
Luckily, the quake soon stopped.
That was the sound of cracks appearing all over the barriers that the Special Forces Agents had created. It wasn’t because of the debris. This time, it was because of the black tentacles hitting the barrier on purpose.
[It’s gonna collapse!]
"Everyone, step back."
Yool looked up and was surprised to see Hamin, the Fall Guild’s Guildmaster, suspended in the air above them.
[This place must be on the Fall Guild’s turf.]
"Everyone!" Captain Lee Jiho yelled, looking over his shoulder. "Step back!"
Yool and the others immediately did as they were told.
And, soon after, barriers made from solid dirt emerged from the ground.
[Hamin-ssi is an earth manipulator.]
"Captain Lee, evacuate the Civilians," Hamin said while moving towards the church. "And contact the Big 4— I can’t stop Song Moonho for so long."
That was when Yool grabbed his phone and called Wonhee right away.
WONHEE heard that Lee Seojin was in a critical condition.
But she didn’t expect to see the poor young man in a terrible state.
[He’s only been in a coma for a few days, but he’s already so thin...]
"Yejun-ah, is Seojin’s awakening period normal?" Wonhee asked worriedly. "I didn’t go through a normal awakening period, but even I know that having seizures shouldn’t happen. Awakened People just fall into a deep slumber before they wake up as either a Hunter or Guide."
She was free to talk like that because only Yejun was there with her.
Lee Seorin and Lee Sook-ja made an excuse of buying drinks, but it was obvious that they were just too scared to stay there with Yejun. Updates are released by novel•fire.net
Ahyeon, on the other hand, was guarding outside the room.
"That kid is going to awaken as a Hunter— a powerful Hunter, at that."
Wonhee turned to Yejun. "Why does he get seizures then? And Seorin-ssi also said he coughed up a huge chunk of blood."
"Wonhee-ya, this is also the first time I’ve seen someone in this condition."
She suddenly felt ashamed of herself.
"I’m sorry, Yejun-ah."
"It’s alright, Wonhee-ya," Yejun said, patting her back gently. "I know that you’re just worried about the kid."
Wonhee smiled apologetically at Yejun. "Thank you for being understanding—"
She was surprised when the door suddenly burst open and Ahyeon entered the room with a pale face.
"What happened, Ahyeonnie?"
"Y-Yool Hyung just called and said Song Moonho snapped and went on a r-rampage!"
Wonhee gasped. "Where are they?"
"T-The church!" Ahyeon said, and then he showed the map on his phone. "H-Here!"
"Let’s go, Wonhee-ya," Yejun said, holding her hand. "It’s faster to get there through teleportation."
She nodded, and then she turned to Ahyeon.
"Ahyeonnie, wait here until Seorin-ssi and Mrs. Lee come back," Wonhee said. "Then ."
TANNIE wanted to come out and play with Guide Chu Wonhee.
However, he was busy these days.
He was locked up in his ’room’ that he designed to resemble a PC café in Korea. Hence, he was surrounded by computers that were all under his command.
"New data?" Tannie asked, confused. "Where did it come from?"
