A Gamecock with ferocious eyes under a blazing comb never runs away with its enemies in front of it. The fact does not change even if it is faced with a strong enemy.

It was the same now. The blood-stained Gamecock, flesh torn all over, was still facing the enemy, its eyes burning. Furthermore, it never uttered the sound of death or a cry of pain because it was close to death.

As its feathers and flesh were torn apart, the Gamecock, soaked in its own blood, gave a cry of tearing up the sky. With the sound, it spewed out the last of its power.

The blazing comb of the Gamecock rose up. Anger Soaring, the formidable power of the Gamecock, was activated.

A huge explosion burst out around the body of the Gamecock with a clap of thunder. The explosion of power seemed to send everything near the Gamecock to the far end of the horizon.

But in front of the explosion, it didn’t fly away. Far from flying, it broke through the overwhelming explosion with a single leap and climbed onto the body of the Gamecock in one fell swoop.

Then it began to tear away the flesh of the Gamecock, its sturdy feathers, its tough hide, and its hard flesh, with its big hands.

As if to dig out the soil, it dug out the flesh of the Gamecock, and then, as soon as the heart was revealed, the giant Orc with purple eyes put its fist into the heart and pulled out the heart of the Gamecock.

Blood spurted out, the explosion died down, and the Gamecock that had been burning its fighting spirit collapsed.

It was a disaster. The end of the scene, which was inevitably called for, was a shout of triumph from the monster who had just destroyed the Gamecock.

The Orc Khan had arrived in Europe.

Jang Sung-hoon, Maria, and Kim Tae-hoon sat around a crude table where they could see the chimneys of the Sistine Chapel. There were mugs in front of them with coffee, blooming in the morning. Its aroma was quite good. Even the Italians, who were some of the most finicky coffee drinkers in the world, could admire it.

But the coffee in front of Maria had not been touched. Instead of sipping her coffee, she looked nervously at the chimney of Sistine Cathedral and then at Kim Tae-hoon, who was enjoying his coffee. Finally, she looked at Jang.

Jang Sung-hoon, who had just wet his lips with a sip, put his mug down and asked, “Do you have anything you want to say?”

“Why are you so calm?” Maria spoke, but could not hide her anxiety. She had accumulated a lot of experience and ability on the battlefield so that she did not lack the experience. In other words, the reality she faced now meant that she was serious enough to disturb her.

“Now that ridiculous monster is coming to Europe, can we stay like this?” The Orc Khan, the Emperor of all the Orcs was leading the Orc army to Europe.

“They’re approaching the Caspian Sea, and detouring around it.”

If it bypassed the Caspian Sea, then what was next? It would be the Black Sea!

“And then, if they cross Ukraine or Turkey, there’s no way to stop them.”

As soon as they passed the Black Sea, Europe must wage a bloody war with the Orc army: a war without a winner.

“We’ll have to deal with it before then.”

Maria thought there was only one way to stop it after she knew the existence of Orc Khan. Before the Orc Khan and the Orcs crossed the Black Sea, the only solution was to detonate nuclear weapons in Ukraine or Turkey in the Black Sea and crush them. In fact, Maria and Russia tried to do so.

However, Kim Tae-hoon did not give an OK sign for the operation. That was the problem.

“It’s not time to do this. At once, nuclear weapons...”

If they really wanted to stop the Orc army and the Orc Khan in Ukraine or Turkey, they had to step up now. Even now, they could not do such a thing like regular soldiers. That was because as Orc Khan headed for Europe, the monsters in Turkey and Ukraine were going crazy as well.

In this situation, Kim Tae-hoon was the only one who could install nuclear weapons. It was natural that Maria’s heart would burn.

“Hey, if we use nuclear weapons every time we have a problem, will the humans in this world remain? Nuclear weapons are a self-destructing weapon. We’ll only use them right before the end of mankind.”

“That’s the only way we can stop it now!”

“Who said that? Did the boss say that?”

“It’s...” At Jang’s objection, Maria looked at Kim. Instead of answering her eyes, Kim only savored coffee. Finally, Maria looked at Jang again.

“So there’s another way to kill the monster?”

“I don’t want to tell you about it here because it’s a secret! You and I know each other, and if you could arrange a meeting with a woman for me, I’d really like it...”

“It’s rising.” Kim Tae-hoon’s voice crossed the line between Maria and Jang Sung-hoon.

The two, who were facing one another, turned their heads and looked at the chimney of the Sistine Chapel. They could see white smoke streaming up through the chimney.

“That’s all we can give.” Along with the words, the Cardinals began to put the papers in their hands slowly and in order on the table. It was a subscription, a Mac Guild subscription.

“After a long discussion, we have come to the conclusion that there is nothing else we can give you. And again, after a long discussion, we unanimously agreed to give this to you.”

The Cardinals accepted the fact that they no longer had any materials to pay Kim. And now they realized that all they could give was mental things. The result was this just now.

“Please accept it.”

It was what Kim Tae-hoon and Jang Sung-hoon wanted. Apparently, in exchange for the Great Giant, Kim Tae-hoon took possession of everything the Vatican had. He also wrote a contract. But how effective would the contract be?

It was not very reliable a contract in the first place, and there was nothing as useless as a contract at this time.

Furthermore, their opponent was not just a group, it was the Vatican. It was a group that had shown faith and commitment to one being for more than twenty centuries. Putting them under with only material difficulties had never been done by anyone in human history, and attempts to subdue them in that way had always created greater chaos.

Kim Tae-hoon was no different. He would not make the Vatican give in from the bottom of their heart just with force and violence. All he had to do was make the Vatican defeat itself.

It was the only way to make the Vatican a comrade, not an enemy, and to admit that mankind was facing a disaster that had never been encountered before, and that the Vatican must follow Kim Tae-hoon to survive the disaster.

“I checked my subscription.” So, the Mac Guild accepted the Cardinal’s choice. “By this time, the Cardinals have become members of the Mac Guild, and I now ask for active cooperation and service for the Mac Guild.”

After Jang Sung-hoon received the subscription from the Cardinals, he began to organize it. “In addition, the Mac Guild will do our best to protect its members.”

Jang Sung-hoon, who had arranged the subscription forms, finished the words and looked at Kim Tae-hoon.

Everyone looked at Kim Tae-hoon.

Kim Tae-hoon spoke in front of their eyes. “We’ll finish it in the Black Sea, prepare the battleship.”

Kim Tae-hoon moved to protect the Mac Guild.

The Black Sea...

Until December 30, 2016, it was the tensest sea in the world. While countless countries claimed the Black Sea as theirs, the occupation of the Crimean Peninsula by Russia, which began in 2014, made the Black Sea a chessboard of world powers, not just Eastern Europe.

It was funny that the monsters ended the tension. For a while, the screams of humans filled the Black Sea that had become the monsters’ hunting ground, but it was literally only for a while.

In Turkey, where humans had disappeared and the Black Sea was to the north, peace, and abundance, which could not be compared with the past, had begun to take its place.

It was the Orc Horde that broke the peace, the abundance, and the stillness.

They were overwhelming from the beginning. As the hundred thousand Orcs marched on the ground without rest, the ground shook like an earthquake and screamed. The sound alone scared the powerful monsters and made them run away.

On the other hand, those who could not escape had to face the most terrible death in the world. The hungry Orc Horde ate anything that was alive. There was no hunting in the process. There was no battle. There was just a process of eating it if there was something alive. No matter how huge the monsters were, only bones were left when the Orc Horde ran.

But it was the presence of a Giant Orc moving at the rear of the horde that produced more overwhelming results than the 100,000 Orc Horde produced.

It was about four meters tall. It was obviously rather big. Of course, it was not so big compared to the monsters that were called huge.

But the muscles that filled its body were definitely different. The muscles seemed to be twisted with steel, and they were so intense that just moving its body lightly made the viewers gasp. The figure with the green skin reminded them of the Hulk from Marvel Comics. The difference from the Hulk was that four sharp fangs were protruding up and down from the muzzle of this monster, and that its eyes were shining purple.

That was the only difference. The destructive power that it could show was not lacking compared to what the character Hulk showed in the comics.

Kr!

There was no difference between the ferocity of the Hulk and the ferocity of this monster. It was impossible to face even at long distance, not just right before it.

“It’s not a joke.” The soldiers, who were watching the Orc Khan from a distance with a telescope, felt the fact.

“We could not imagine that it was this bad.”

They were Russian soldiers, all fluttering. They were not just soldiers, but those who qualified to fight monsters, with patterns on the back of their right hands.

“We’ve got more than the B-rank in our Energy, but we can’t get any closer.”

Furthermore, they were not merely Awakeners, but also elites. Everyone had a combined strength and stamina of more than 500, and a higher Energy rank than B. They were those who had the qualifications and abilities to not be disturbed in front of powerful monsters.

“We wouldn’t have been able to get this close without this Cross.”

But the presence of the Orc Khan affected them, too, before the could even see the Orc Khan without a telescope. It had them pissing themselves at that distance, and that wasn’t a metaphor.

“It’s a good thing I wore diapers as ordered.” Those here were actually pissing, even wearing adult diapers to prepare for it. Even that was a relief.

“It doesn’t have a monster to attack, so we are just pissing. Let’s thank it for that.”

Those who were monitoring the Orc Khan and the Orc army ahead of them died while watching the Orc Khan fight with the Gamecock. The reason for their death was simple. As soon as the Orc Khan bellowed towards the Gamecock standing in its way, most of those who were watching the Orc Khan died of a heart attack. Diapers were merely lessons left for the survivors.

“This appears a monster that doesn’t make sense. I don’t understand why such a monster has been silent in Mongolia all this time”

In addition, there was one more lesson left by those who had died before; this monster did not condone any enemy.

“It’s crazy to be able to live by killing a monster like this.”

Fortunately, there was one person in the world who would be free from the lessons. The man was on the side of the soldiers who were here now.

“... he is here.”

At that moment a soldier raised his head and looked up at the sky. The rest of the soldiers followed. A plane flew rapidly over the sky toward the Orc Horde. The most noticeable thing they could see from its low flight was the Russian flag decorating the plane. But it was not the flag that came into the eyes of the soldiers, but a new Mac on the tail of the plane. The soldiers who confirmed the new Mac immediately crossed themselves or gathered their hands. There were different ways, but the prayers were the same.

“May the grace of God be with the Master.” With that sign, everyone immediately bit the capsule in their mouth.

The bitter liquid that burst out of the capsules began to double the amount of the Energy in their guts after it descended their throats, and their eyes changed.

Bang! At the same time, shells fell off the low-flying airplane and began attacking the Orc Horde on the ground.

The Orc Khan bellowed out its warcry. The fear of death began to spread rapidly around the Orc Khan, and even reached the soldiers who were still very far away.

“Ugh!” “Ahhhh!” The soldiers began to scream with a look like Munch’s scream.

Of course, the fear reached the plane passing over the head of the Orc horde. But the plane was not shaken at all by the fear. However, the plane turned its nose toward the Black Sea to the north and continued spitting out shells.

The fact changed Orc Khan’s purple eyes. It stopped bellowing, and instead grabbed one of the Orcs nearby and threw it at the flying plane, an unconventional attack.

Whizz! What was more unusual was that the body of the thrown Orc passed by the plane more than two hundred meters above. The Orc Khan did not stop there.

Thump, thump, thump! It started running after the plane, and when it leaped up, his body was high enough to look closely at the plane. The impossible chase between the Orc Khan and the plane began.

“Oh, my God.”

The soldiers’ eyes, looking at the ridiculous sight, the wingless monster chasing the airplane flying by, were shaking nonstop. Everything was so shocking. Despite the situation, the soldiers did not forget two things: the fact that they were still alive, and the fact that they had a mission to complete as long as they were alive.

“Now, let’s move.”

It was the Land Rover Range Rover, called the Rolls Royce of the desert, that was waiting for the soldiers who turned their heads to complete their mission.

“We risk our lives now, and deliver the weapons to the Master.”

The hunting began.
