Chapter 62: SamJeon’s Church Bileons
“Here’s $46,500 dollars.”
“Wow…”
Joonghwi calculated the value of the Kolbutu Jaehw.a.n.g had hunted and was amazed by its amount. The hunting ground was wide and their corpses were all over the place before a huge machine swallowed it up.
The machine calculated the price. It really wasn’t a useful monster and even if it was then it would be difficult. At best, it was useless outside of the base’s material. Justin point provides them for hunting monsters with nothing besides money. A male monster was worth a minimum of 10,000 and a female monster was worth a minimum of 5,000, and a baby monster was a minimum of 2,000. Luckily they were able to get 46,500.
Jaehw.a.n.g easily caught all of them.
They didn’t think a good price would come out of it but it turned out great. It was all sent to a bank and Joonghwi divided everything after depositing the money. He gave Jaehw.a.n.g his share for hunting the monster but Jaehw.a.n.g then fairly distributed it. He was supposed to get 20 percent but he thought that that was just too much.
“I bought you an arrow as a gift.”
Jaewhang bought him a very expensive arrow. He gave it to him at that moment and Joonghwi gave him something that he got for his granddad, GwanJae.
It was a great trade-off. The military bus then came to a stop and all of the platoon members had gathered into the area around the driver’s seat.
Something was going on as there was a red light glowing on the radio.
-Here is the Justin point control tower… Platoon 8, please respond.
If they didn’t make contact three times a day at a fixed time then they wouldn’t be able to find the platoon at the control tower. They had to make sure because anything could happen. Joonghwi then answered the radio.
-This is Park Joonghwi, leader of platoon 8.
-Right now we’re 12 kilometers away from the north in the area of sector 12. There’s some information that we’ve found on an unregistered hunter. To check for another hunter we have to request an attack without communication and then we’ll send out a survival request. I’ll share with you the best location and date of the attack. GQ258735… Have you checked the location?
-Checking… Do you have a piece of more detailed information?
The information that was sent to the control tower were fragmented so there was a chance that things could get dangerous.
-It can’t be found. The report will be provided at the attack.
-Got it.
-The information isn’t clear but there’s a big possibility that the culprit would be there. However, if possible, pay close attention. Call over.
-Over.
They all stood there thinking about the information on the culprit as Joongwhi turned off the radio and stroked his chin.
“Darn monsters…”
The limited area in Justin point was huge and there were people scattered everywhere. Everyone was having troubles even though there weren’t any monsters. But apparently, there was a big problem that happened to be a monster.
Besides the culprit, they had supernatural powers and were very dangerous. The situation with that one was different which made it easier to handle.
Most hunters were low-grade wanted criminals and many of them were committed to it. They would fight off the monsters to survive but in most common situations, the humans would die. There wasn’t any real reason for their fight but none of them were ever sentenced to death except for those convicted of kidnapping.
Even though they couldn’t do anything with the information they received, they could trade in the monster corpses through the black market and with the extra money, they could easily make a new fake ident.i.ty. So they the hunters, would sometimes wear a mask and hunt people.
This was the second time they were ironically in a contract with the country. In the past when they took it seriously and fought back and they received all of the supporters. They had rights with the country and relation to other organizations of gagseogs in their attack. They actually saw the Bileons and knew that they were their enemies who just wanted to hunt in their own country.
And the last time was the third time, they escaped their religious ideology and the anarchy that had spread everywhere. Their religious ideology was simply said to have appeared during the latter second half of the generation mashup. The eschatology base was said to be flourished by that newly rising ideology.
It was then called ‘SamJeon Religion’ which was established through the world’s dimension collision. The three worlds were completely combined and they believed that they lived in a paradise.
“The collision was unbelievable, it couldn’t be rescued.”
The source of that newly rising religion was the Republic of Korea.
The universe was their only hope.
The generation mashup created a tragedy for them and their beginnings were its driving force. On the outside, those unfortunate people had help but on the inside, they were being brainwashed to become their faithful servants.
That religion borrowed the bible and gave birth to a generation of giant churches. The head pastor was found in Seoul and his son considered himself as the leader of the Samjeon Chuch. They had become involved in so many situations, they did a few healing miracles until they managed to a.s.sault a school girl which led up to a devoted believer to exposing them.
That incident was supposed to break them but they ended up turning themselves into a cult. They built an entire empire and since then, their society was banished and so the Bileons started to cross over to the Alousu.
Before the generation mashup, North Korea collapsed with China and j.a.pan having a good relations.h.i.+p. They weren’t enemies but sadly, the Samjeon Church had been destroyed and Korea had ruined themselves.
Out of the three types of Bileons, they were the most vicious… The hunters that followed that religion were insane.
“Would you guys like to sit while I explain more about the Samjeon church?”
“Sure.”
“Okay.”
Jaehw.a.n.g and Mingyu answered. They were working hard on their last location for the attack. Jaehw.a.n.g and Mingyu were in the back of the bus listening to Joonghwi explain everything to them until they arrive since they didn’t know anything about the Bileons and the SamJeon church.
“The Bileons are evil. Like how cruel people could be in medieval times. Someone who just steals hunter equipment and goes after monsters would be an angel compared to these guys.”
“I see.”
They caught hold of the hunters being influenced to join the church and they would get themselves punished if they didn’t listen. It was h.e.l.l, things were taken slowly until the final brutal execution. Those people were forced into joining them in an attempt to get out of that inhumane method of recruitment.
“Mingyu experienced it… and Jaehw.a.n.g… have you experienced it?”
“I haven’t.”
Jaehw.a.n.g shook his head to answer Joonghwi’s question. He started to feel sick and anxious. He tried to get rid of his memories but he couldn’t, he felt that his uncle was sitting somewhere out there.
“Um… Good. We’re on our way to fight them. Can you do it?”
Jaehw.a.n.g gave him a nod. He heard about this a few times in the academy. Every time they learned about the Bileons, he heard it constantly. It’s been stuck in his ear as if they were trying to brainwash him. He just kept close to his choice as a hunter.
People are going to get killed, they are not just monsters, but actually people. It was unexpected but it had to be done.
“I learned about them in the academy. I wish I didn’t choose the path of being a hunter if I knew there was going to be so much murder involved…”
“Is that so? I understand.”
Joonghwi replied.
“You probably heard this from the academy but let me say this again. The Gagseogs were given all of their equipment since they were just beginners that’s why they didn’t oppose it. They had this nation’s protection until their work piled up. They’re now trying to handle an unfair contract.”
Joonghwi explained and Mingy and Jaehw.a.n.g shook their heads.
Even though they were hunters with amazing talent they were very strong anytime except for the Leeds season. They had experience and had enough abilities and did great on raids no matter how dangerous they were. The beginner hunter’s survival rate was high for those with lots of experience and they could get into a strong clan.
Sometimes they would be overconfident and misbehave during raids, however, that type of behavior was not encouraged because it would most likely cause a total failure. The beginner team had great luck but if they didn’t have lots of experience then they could never succeed with that behavior.
The problem was with that kind of reason, the beginner hunters were in an unfair slave contract and they couldn’t settle it themselves. It was a 15-month mission service background they’ve made, the mission service they made taught others how to murder people.
“When a lot of the beginner pa.s.sed away, they couldn’t handle hunting the monsters alone and that’s when they met the Bileons.”
Joonghwi said with a serious expression. His heart wasn’t in the place to talk about it so he couldn’t understand his murderous instincts. They were still people on that side that haven’t experienced being killed yet. However, there were many people that had experienced it and he can’t stop thinking about the bodies that they had piled up because of their faith.
Unfortunately, they were met with good luck after a murder. Whether they liked to do it or not, murdering people left a big impact on them. Validation was important but if they got hurt then it could become a big problem if they neglected the wound. Just one word about a killing could cause the littlest of anger.
“They were armed and couldn’t promise anything. There only one thing that I could tell you. Hesitate and your colleague would die.”
There was another chance that things could pile up over time…
Joonghwi repeated himself for a second time as Jaehw.a.n.g and Mingyu paid him close attention. He then took two pills out of his pocket and handed it to them.
“The power of drugs is nothing good but I need you to be at your best. It is temporary but it helps with pain and helps to prevent murder. Of course, it is toxic and I wouldn’t allow any further use.
Jaehw.a.n.g and Mingyu then placed the pill inside their pockets.
“I will say this again, don’t hesitate. You guys would put each other’s life on the line the moment you start a feud with each other. .”
Click…Swoosh…Click…Click.
The door of the military bus and the gla.s.s windows were completely blocked off.
“Even the bus would be considered prey as we move to pa.s.s through their gate. It’s hard to earn supplies on the outside so there’s a lot of stuff loaded on the inside, so keep a close watch.”
They turned off the bus’ camouflage and the platoon armed their weapons and got moving. They had the location for the last attack at the control tower and they couldn’t take the bus down the deep valley. After about ten minutes of walking, a steep cliff appeared.
“It’s a fourth tier valley habitat. It’s an easy place to find monsters which makes it a popular hunting ground.”
Borrowing from his uncle, The end.
