Webnovel Author In The Apocalypse World-Chapter 200: The Draco Virtus Squad Connection

Whether the information was true or not, the Draco Virtus Squad claimed to have news about Mr. Kim. That alone was worth the gamble.

Besides…

"If I remember correctly, isn’t there someone in the Draco Virtus Squad who is the son of Director Oh Daehan?"

Oh Daehan was the current director of the Haneulsae Logistics Department.

"Yes, his name is Oh Yongho."

Hearing this, Roh Baekjin was even more resolute in his decision. "Seohan, gather intel on the Draco Virtus Squad’s situation and look for an opportunity to get them out."

The fact that Director Oh Daehan’s son had poor aptitude was well-known among the Haneulsae trading team. Oh Daehan doted on his son and rarely allowed him to leave Haneulsae Safe Zone, let alone travel far. For the Draco Virtus Squad to have come to the Pyeongseong Safe Zone, Oh Daehan must have discovered something even more important than his son’s safety.

With the Haneulsae trading trading team’s capabilities, rescuing the Draco Virtus Squad from Pyeongseong Safe Zone wasn’t particularly difficult. It didn’t take long for them to pinpoint the Draco Virtus Squad’s location.

After the Draco Virtus Squad reunited with the Haneulsae trading team, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I thought we were going to be locked up by them forever. Pyeongseong Safe Zone is way too petty!"

"Forever? No way. With Yongho here, Director Oh would definitely come to rescue us."

"Are you saying you’d rather stay locked up for a few more days? Fine, fine. Let them take you back. I’m not sticking around for that."

"Don’t! I was just saying. Who wants to stay locked up? The people of Pyeongseong Safe Zone didn’t even give us a shred of kindness."

"It’s all because of that Mr. Kim."

Hearing the Draco Virtus Squad mention Mr. Kim, the Haneulsae trading team immediately jumped in. "How much do you know about this Mr. Kim? Tell us everything."

The Draco Virtus Squad member Bae Dongshin glanced at Roh Baekjin. He was very familiar with this powerful ability user and captain of top rank of ability user team whom the new Haneulsae Safe Zone Commander valued greatly. Hearing the question, Bae Dongshin immediately understood the trading team’s intent. Since the Draco Virtus Squad also didn’t have favorable opinions of Mr. Kim, they fully supported the idea of taking action against him and didn’t plan to hold back any information.

"Have you ever seen the vegetables and oranges that ordinary people in Pyeongseong Safe Zone eat? All of them are perfectly normal and free of any mutagenic viruses. Based on our observations, these things are all produced by this person named Mr. Kim," Bae Dongshin explained to Roh Baekjin and the others. "He runs a vegetable shop in the Second District, selling these normal, fresh vegetables at very low prices. We’ve sent people to infiltrate the shop."

"Mr. Kim is also a plant-type ability user. Not only can he produce these normal foods, but he can also summon a Phantom Flame Phoenix Tree. However, the tree is still immature, so its combat strength is much weaker than that of a fully grown one."

"Additionally, I suspect he’s a dual-ability user."

"A dual-ability user? Are you certain?" Roh Baekjin’s interest piqued immediately upon hearing this.

Dual-ability users weren’t unheard of, but they were rare. People with dual abilities tended to develop more slowly than single-ability users, but once their abilities matured, each power far surpassed those of single-ability users. Not only did their combat strength grow significantly, but they also often exhibited unexpected and extraordinary phenomena.

There weren’t many dual-ability users in existence.

What intrigued Roh Baekjin the most was the rumor that dual-ability users weren’t born with their powers. Instead, they could awaken the second ability later in life through specific methods. How one became a dual-ability user, however, was something only those who had undergone the process knew.

Roh Baekjin who never turned away opportunities to increase his power, was eager to learn how to become a dual-ability user himself.

The other members of the Draco Virtus Squad also looked at Bae Dongshin curiously.

"How come we didn’t know about this suspicion? Bae Dongshin, you’ve been keeping this from us? Don’t you trust us?"

"It’s not that I don’t trust you," Bae Dongshin explained. "I just wasn’t sure about it. Whether I mentioned it or not didn’t make much of a difference. But now that Captain Roh and his team are planning to act against Mr. Kim, I have to bring this up. If my guess turns out to be wrong, that’s fine. But if it’s correct and I don’t say anything, it could severely impact the outcome of their plan."

Bae Dongshin’s explanation was direct and reasonable. Your next chapter is on novelbuddy

"Yes, being overprepared is always better than being underprepared," Roh Baekjin nodded his head in agreement. "Tell me your reasoning behind this speculation."

Bae Dongshin recalled the scene when they caused trouble. "If my eyes weren’t playing tricks on me, that Mr. Kim appeared out of nowhere inside the shop. Since there was a glass door in the way, I can’t be certain if I saw it right. But if I didn’t see wrong, then he must also have space-type abilities."

Roh Baekjin’s expression grew serious.

"This is crucial information."

A space-type ability user capable of teleportation would mean they’d need to be fully prepared to confront him. Otherwise, if he teleported away, their entire plan would fail.

Fortunately, before setting out, Roh Baekjin had considered the possibility of the enemy having teleportation or other space-type skills. He specifically brought along a Space-type zombie’s crystal core.

When dealing with space-type ability users, crushing a space-type crystal core could create severe spatial disruptions. The instability on the surrounding space would nullify any teleportation or spatial movement abilities, making it the best countermeasure against such opponents.

However, space-type zombies were rare, and so were their crystal cores. Most space-type ability users awakened storage-type skill rather than teleportation, so this method wasn’t often applicable.
