I Am the Only Non-Returner

151 – Final Battle (1)

At the same time as the message, people as many as monster rats began to materialize on the ground one by one.

People began to slowly fill up from the outskirts, exactly 1km away from our shelter, and the people on the outskirts were confused for a moment and then began to gather in the center as if they were being drawn by something.

I don’t know when it was cleaned up, but the radius of our shelter was several tens of kilometers and it was a flat area. The clean space where all the remains of mountains and buildings had been blown away was very creepy and unfamiliar.

But soon the crowds crowded in, blocking my view, and I wondered how many survivors were left, so I spread out a wave of magic to check.

‘1000, 2000, 3000…’

Count in thousands dozens of times.

‘93,466 People? Barely?’

I should not have forgotten. Everyone participating in this game is in their second game.

It was very shocking that only 90,000 people survived not the first but the second attempt.

Besides, the last stage isn’t over yet, is it? I need to think about how long I can survive here, or whether it is even possible to wake up.

‘Just because I cleared it once, there is no guarantee that I will be able to beat it.’

When I came to my senses after thinking for a moment, the shouts of survivors who had suddenly been summoned to a space I did not know rang out from all directions.

– What’s happening all of a sudden?!

– What happened to our shelter? Where are we?

– She, if there is no shelter, we will all die!!

– They are all just prominent people. Well, isn’t it obvious…

– Michelle… This is really the last time. Be sure to clear it and I will save you.

– There are still people who believe in the superstition that if you clear the final stage, your wish will come true.

– Team Pangyo Lighthouse Keepers gather here!! Here!!

The last remaining survivors around the world communicate in a chaotic manner. There was a moment of confusion, but as if it was a fluke that he had survived so far, he quickly resolved the confusion and started doing what he had to do to survive.

Gather team members first, gauge the abilities of people around you, and gather information. As time goes by, the number of people keeping a safe distance from other teams increases. Because they might suddenly ask us to fight among ourselves and decide the final winner.

At that thought, the survivors pull their heads, frown, and glance around. Then, at some point, their eyes were fixed on our shelter and Shelter A.

No, there was no need to distinguish it from Shelter A anymore. Because Shelter A was moved to the end of our shelter’s outer castle, it looked like one shelter from afar.

‘Combining as one… Fortunately, it seems to be a team effort.’

It was clear that this was a stage where survivors worked together to survive against one huge enemy.

– Hey, over there!! Talk to the shelter director here!!

– Well, let’s talk first!!

– Why is there a shelter here? Do you know anything about that?

– We just came here and wondered what it was. But one thing is certain. That team… Is special.

– Strong. That big guy. It’s ridiculously strong. There was no one that I could not measure up to with my abilities.

– Ah. I don’t know what it is, but shouldn’t we also be able to prepare? I was suddenly sleeping and I was like, what is this really happening?

And the people who seemed to be the leaders of the survivors who were looking at us suddenly became a market place by shouting something at the same time.

“Oh, this is crazy. Isn’t it true that we have to protect all these people?”

Kahi said, looking around worriedly, and Eunchae also answered, looking very nervous.

“I don’t think so… I don’t think we’d let them fight without the shelter we’ve carefully built up to this point, right? Don’t you?”

Hyuna rested her chin and pondered for a moment after being asked a question by Eunchae, then pointed to her outer voice and spoke.

“Honey, would you like to go to the outer castle together? I think we need to respond.”

“Okay then, Lingling. Let’s go together.”

“Yes!!”

Krrr-

Hyuna, who made the suggestion first, and Lingling’s black leopard, who was the most agile and had a cool look, moved towards the outer castle.

When we reached the highest point of the outer castle, people flocked towards the outer castle. However, when dozens of gun ports were opened on the outer wall, the people approaching were frightened and retreated.

The moment they come close and touch the outer castle, hundreds of bullets containing condensed water from Ryok’s well drawn from the moat will explode. This is a defense facility that I have carefully modified, so unless you are a top-level survivor, you will not be able to set foot in it.

I quietly looked around at the people and thought carefully about what to say. But no matter how much I thought about it, I had nothing to say. It wasn’t because I called, and I didn’t know what was going to happen in the future.

– Hey, please say something!!

– Are you the host?

– What?! Um, is that guy the host?

– Who is the host?

Before any unnecessary misunderstandings arise, I decided to introduce myself first.

‘I’ll have to apply magical power to be heard far away.’

I calmly opened the conversation with a moderate amount of magical power.

[Hello. It is called a silver dog. I am not a host, I am a player like you. Of course, that’s what they call us.]

As soon as I started speaking, the survivors swallowed their saliva and instantly became so quiet that not even the sound of ants crawling could be heard.

[In the beginning, I was active under the username Dogmong, so some of you may remember me.]

ㅡ!!!

– The person who ranked first in the early days by himself?!

– The energy it gives off is somehow different.

– So that person is currently the strongest person? But that was in the early days, right?

– Let’s just listen to the story first.

[I know you’re expecting something from me, but I don’t actually have any special information to share with you. We are also very surprised by your sudden appearance.]

People nodded as I continued speaking, and many people looked strangely relieved.

‘You don’t hide your competitive spirit until the very end. ‘Because I have that kind of greed, I guess I survived.’

[However, there are some things I will explain briefly, so please listen and make your own judgment. First of all, the shelter you are looking at right now is not just one. It may seem that way because they are close together, but they are actually independent shelters side by side.]

– Oh… Then?!

– As expected, it was like that. I told you there are no seams. It’s usually connected by a transparent passage.

– Will our shelters be returned soon?

– So you don’t think they will all continue to fight? How on earth are you dealing with such a big guy? Can it cause damage?

– Whatever it is, let’s get started quickly. My body is itching. And if I become the final winner, I’ll have to select the women again hahahaha.

Several people were muttering their thoughts. It didn’t matter whether it was what I said out loud or what I thought inside. Because I could see and hear everything with my eyes and ears.

There were a few people with dark thoughts, but most of them were only focused on how to respond to the current situation and how to survive.

‘Your concentration is amazing. These people will probably remember what I just said without a single mistake.’

And the moment when divisions between teams became somewhat clear.

– This is a question that is still unresolved. Why doesn’t our shelter summon us?

With someone’s words, shelters began to be implemented one by one on the left and right of our shelter.

– Oh!! Our shelter!!

The shelters that were gradually being implemented suddenly grew rapidly and spread endlessly on both sides.

‘There are 606 shelters in total. Looking at it like this, I can really feel it. There was a tremendous amount of death…’

As soon as the shelter was created, the survivors who were watching us all rushed to find their own shelter.

The shelters all look the same, but the survivors managed to find their own home. And then, as if it had stabilized, various intentions were conveyed using items such as battlefield appeals.

– First of all, it seems like the team spirit is solid, right?

– Ah, seeing this type of battle at the end brings tears to my eyes.

– I don’t expect strong camaraderie, so please be efficient so it doesn’t overlap with other shelter characteristics.

– Isn’t that basic for those who have survived so far? Rather than that, I can see something gray in front, but can’t anyone else see it?

‘He’s a person with good sense. There’s a huge guy watching us from earlier…’

When it first appeared, it was constantly changing into various forms and giving me strength, but as soon as the survivors were dropped, it solidified itself into a gigantic form.

The shape was reminiscent of the silhouette of a giant, but the head was not visible as it towered over the clouds, and its arms were abnormally long enough to hug the shelters spread out on both sides at once, giving it a very bizarre feeling.

And there were countless holes in that long arm, and inside the holes were cracks that constantly swirled in one direction.

I am sure that something will crawl out from that crack and harass us.

Booooo~

The sound waves emitted from the giant’s huge mouth sounded heavy and somewhat dull, but the sharpness of the magic power was unprecedented in intensity since the game began.

– Kwaaa!! Ears, my ears!!

Just looking at people falling down with blood dripping from their ears was like that.

‘Even if you don’t realize it, you are taking damage. In the end, it was realized.’

Booooo~

‘The real size is scary big. How did you beat that? ‘This is me from the past.’

Of course, there would have been significantly fewer survivors than there are now, so he might have been weaker than that guy now, but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have shrunk from that majestic appearance to the level of a chimera dragon.

‘If you look at it without much thought, it might seem cute…’

When I look at the final boss and think like this, he sneers and says that I feel like I’m halfway there too.

＜00:13:44＞

‘Just do it right away or what else…’

A world that has become so unstable that even proper messages cannot be implemented.

‘Finish in the shortest time and join Keypenical.’

When I thought about that.

The survivors’ frightened voices trembled at the battlefield’s appeal, and they seemed to have finally become aware of the gigantic monster that filled the land and sky ahead.

– Ha, you can do it!!

– Ahhh!! Let’s all do our best!! We can do it!!

‘What are you doing? You guys just have to defend yourself well.’

A man with his body bloated like the Hulk stepped forward and encouraged people, but the people’s reaction was not very encouraging.

It is slowly visible to their eyes as well. A huge number of monsters crawling out of the long arms.

‘Anything but a monster rat.’

And I already flew forward powerfully and approached the pitch-black giant.

– Wow!! That guy is flying, right? But is it okay to do that even though the stage hasn’t even started?

– [Wealthy] Yes. There are people who buy that. That’s not very efficient.

– Let’s try if we have some magic left.

– Isn’t that something you shouldn’t touch without consulting us?

– What are you going to do when you fly? What are abilities?

– If you look at it, it just looks like a dog idol style.

Ignoring people’s opinions, I pulled my fist back hard.

‘Start with your fists!!’

Even though the stage hasn’t even started yet, I wanted to give it a try. I wonder if my strongest attack will work on this guy who is fully bloodied.

Boohooooo-

The guy also opened his mouth wide and puffed up his body as if to say, “Try it!”

“I’m sure you’ll regret it.”

Seeek ㅡ

The guy is glaring at me, laughing as if he’s going to tear his mouth playfully.

Giiiiing ―

“Hmph!!”

With the help of the giant, most of the magic power, which had already exceeded 3 million, was hit at one point, and the abdomen of the guy who was standing there like a mountain rose significantly backwards.
