I Picked a Mobile From Another World

Episode 52 [Test (1)]

Kyung-hoon pushed his body through the door that was slightly opened on both sides. Upon entering, Kyung-hoon’s body was covered in blood.

“Ugh. “It’s narrow.”

The gap was too narrow. I was able to barely get through because I turned to the side.

Once inside, he pushed the door open with all his might.

Squeak.

The rusty door screamed and moved little by little. The gap became increasingly narrow.

Wow! Wow!

The monsters’ cries were getting closer.

Squeak. thud.

Gyeonghoon gritted his teeth and pushed the door, eventually being able to close it before the monsters arrived.

Fortunately, there was an iron bar rolling around on the floor. He stuck the iron stick into the handle.

bang! Quack! bang!

Wow!

Soon, a knock on the iron door was heard. The iron gate shook violently.

“Do you think it won’t break through?”

– Composite armor with a diameter of 50 mm. This is a door made to defend against monsters, so ordinary monsters cannot break through.

“Phew, I almost got into big trouble.”

Kyung-hoon wiped the blood off his sword with a tired look on his face.

-This was expected from the moment the motorcycle and shotgun attracted attention. If you do something stupid, there are bound to be consequences.

Kyung-hoon shook his head at Eve’s words.

“You’re definitely right Eve. You seem so excited. “You have to be careful from now on.”

Kyung-hoon also seemed to regret his mistakes.

“But I don’t know if the motorcycle will be safe. “I hid it well among the waste, but it wasn’t damaged, right?”

…It seemed like not everyone was remorseful.

“But this dome is different from other buildings… It’s different from the amusement parks in the other world. “I can’t even see the entrance.”

He pounded on the wall next to the door.

chin. chin.

It was solid. It was no ordinary concrete wall.

-Theme park facilities destroyed during the initial disaster were renovated into an awakened training center. Since it is a military facility, it is naturally well prepared for monsters.

Kyung-hoon tilted his head at Eve’s words.

“Eve, listening to you, I don’t understand why this world is ruined. “I seem to have completely adapted to the mutant monsters and was living well, but why did this happen?”

-sorry. Unfortunately, we do not have the necessary information because intercepting or storing communications networks was illegal at the time.

Kyung-hoon shook his head at Eve’s words. This was something I had been asked before. It was something I said out of frustration.

I thought I could gain something by arriving at this training center, but it seemed like there would be nothing left here.

Kyunghoon looked around.

Unlike the large swinging door behind it, there was a small passageway running straight inside.

As the saying goes, it was a military building, and all the bricks were made of thick iron plates.

Unlike the lab I first saw, the passage looked fine.

Kyung-hoon narrowed his eyes and looked at the end of the passage.

[Welcome to the Seoul Awakened Training Center. Please move in the direction of the arrow. Training will proceed after the basic test.]

There was a large message written on the wall at the end of the blocked passage. Below the text, an arrow was drawn to the right.

Kyunghoon looked back.

[axis! Welcome new awakeners…]

An old placard hung on the wall above the swing door, half torn.

“Could it be that this is the main gate of the Awakened Training Center?”

Gyeonghoon thought of Nonsan and trembled.

“Surely there won’t be 4 weeks of training here?”

-4 weeks of training, that’s right. It started with 1 week of training in the beginning and was reorganized into 4 weeks of training at the end.

“But why in the city center? “Shouldn’t a training center like this be built outside the city?”

-In the beginning, the number of awakened people was insufficient, so we had to go hunting in the middle of training. And later it was kept because it was easy to commute to and from work.

Kyung-hoon snorted at Eve’s words.

“Was it commuting to and from work? “Then it had nothing to do with the military training camp.”

-The awakened were not treated the same as the soldiers.

Kyunghoon sighed.

If the awakened people were treated like soldiers, there would be no way for them to remain in Korea.

Bang bang.

The sound of monsters pounding could still be heard from the back door.

Kyung-hoon, who recalled bitter old memories, wiped his body with a wet towel and started moving along the passage.

“The middle door won’t open.”

Kyung-hoon tried to open the door next to the passage, but it didn’t even work.

“If I do something wrong, I might get trapped in here.”

Although it wasn’t a scary situation for Kyung-hoon at all, it was better to have a way out.

Fortunately, the passage continued in the direction of the arrow. The passage was bent vertically.

And a new sign was hanging above the curved passageway.

[First Aptitude Test]

Behind the sign was an ordinary passageway. The new passage length is approximately 50m.

“It’s a bad hobby. “A test like this as soon as you enter the hospital.”

-It’s a bit strange. There’s no way it was tested like this.

Anyway, there was no other way now than to walk along this passage.

It was the moment Kyung-hoon passed the sign.

Flash. Flash.

Blurry light began to come into the dark passage. A light came on from the lamp on the ceiling.

“Hey hey. “Is it even possible that the generator here is alive?”

-The Awakened Training Center also uses a mana stone generator.

While I was looking up at the ceiling with startled eyes, I heard a voice again.

［Welcome to all new Awakened people who have come to the Awakened Training Center. This is an awakened training center built with state-of-the-art facilities. First, check your aptitude here and have fun completing the four weeks of training.]

“I’m a man. “It’s a male voice.”

Kyung-hoon was impressed when he heard the voice. He was thankful once again that Eve was feminine.

［First of all, this is the first aptitude test. We will conduct a physical test. Just avoid the obstacles and come to the end of the passage. Please note that if it is too late, the test may be repeated. Let’s count down. 10

But unlike the voice, the front was just an ordinary passage.

“Is something wrong?”

Anyway, since I was told to pass quickly, I planned to pass quickly.

Gyeonghoon put the sword in his backpack, tightened the backpack straps, and prepared to run.

-3 2 1. Let’s go!

Kyung-Hoon’s body jumped forward.

Now, the world record for running 100 meters was a speed that could be considered laughable.

He covered 10 meters in the blink of an eye.

It was then.

Sluggish.

The floor where Kyung-hoon was trying to step on suddenly sank down.

“omg!”

Surprised, Kyung-hoon hit the wall with his hand.

Kyung-hoon’s body bounced off the opposite wall and he kicked it

hard.

He narrowly jumped over the trap.

“What is it? suddenly!”

He rolled on the floor and woke up with a surprised expression.

Fortunately, it didn’t fall into the trap because it was attached to the wall.

The trap itself that suddenly appeared was surprising, but the sight below the trap that I saw while jumping over it was even more surprising.

He approached the trap and looked down.

The trap was quite deep. A long iron skewer was erected at the end of the trap, which was dug more than 10 meters deep.

There were several monsters stuck on iron skewers.

Some of the monsters were so old that they looked like mummies.

“Does this make sense? It’s an aptitude test. “Is there an aptitude test where you die if you fail?”

-Something is wrong. This trap appears to be some kind of defense system.

“What is a defense system? It’s a trap in a dungeon seen in old fantasy novels. “How on earth is this going?”

Kyung-hoon took out a pistol and a sword from his backpack. It was not a place where you could go without a weapon.

At that time, the voice from before came back again.

[Time is running out. If it’s too late, the test will be run again. Please hurry.]

Kugu Palace.

To make matters worse, a bulkhead began to come down from the ceiling at the end of the passage.

“Oh, I’ll hang out with you just this once.”

Kyunghoon ran forward again.

The floor collapsed and a trap was created again. Blades protruded from the walls and ceiling.

I jumped over the trap and broke the blade with my sword.

thud!

A moment later, the bulkhead completely fell to the ground, and Kyung-hoon shook off his clothes from behind the bulkhead.

“It doesn’t seem difficult if you do it right, but can a newly awakened person pass this?”

-It’s unreasonable. This system is not in a normal situation right now.

Even while the two were talking, the voice continued to ring.

[Congratulations on passing. Next, we will proceed with the reaction test. Please pass the passage in time.]

The passage turned to the other side again and continued for a long time. This time it wasn’t an empty passage.

Kyunghoon frowned.

“That looks like a flamethrower, isn’t that a heavy machine gun at the end?”

Automatic weapons were appearing throughout the passage. They were all unmanned firearms connected with wires and cylinders.

“When I look at things like this, the development of science and technology seems mysterious. “It’s not related to mana stone, but it looks faster than ours.”

-As practical training continued, progress was bound to accelerate.

[…Let the countdown begin. 10 9…….]

Kyung-hoon looked at the wall where the voice was coming from.

“I just wanted you to hang out once. “You want me to do that again?”

Kyunghoon took out a paper stick loosely wrapped in a circle from his backpack. It was a stick that looked like dynamite.

Instead, there was no wick visible on this stick.

“I was going to write about it a little later… This is the first appearance of a bomb made by Jin Shawei.”

-Shouldn’t we do a test?

“Why don’t we test it here?”

It was a bomb made from the guana that Kyung-hoon had scraped. Jin Shawei used his characteristics to create a proper bomb.

Kyung-hoon held a stick in his hand.

“You said it was a bomb that reacts to mana, right? “If you inject a certain amount of mana into the exposed point of the explosive, it explodes after a while.”

Kyung-hoon tore the end of the paper packaging and placed his thumb there.

Then he pulled up the mana and sent it to his thumb. I felt like my mana was draining away, and the bomb I was holding was getting hotter.

“Oh, did you say how much to inject?”

-I have not heard such a story.

“Then shall we push it in a little more?”

Kyung-hoon did not hear any precautions from Jin Xia-wei when using the bomb. If you put in too much mana, the explosive will explode quickly…

-I think I should throw it! It gets hot too quickly!

Fortunately, Eve was next to Kyunghoon. Eve, who was examining the bomb with an infrared camera, urgently warned.

“this.”

Gyeong-hoon also noticed and threw a stick shell.

Shells flew through the middle of the passage, and machine guns and flamethrowers fired fire at the small pole.

Ta-ta-ta-tang!

Grrrr!

And then there was an explosion.

Quang!

The flames blew away a nearby flamethrower and shrapnel destroyed a machine gun.

A moment later, Kyung-hoon, covered in white dust, stood up.

“Phew, I almost got into big trouble.”

If it weren’t for Eve’s warning, the explosion would have happened.

The passage was a mess.

“It’s several times as powerful as most dynamites…”

– It was effective because it was a closed passage.

It seemed like Eve was right, but the results were good anyway.

There was a large hole in the ceiling in the middle of the passage.

[..chi… ..Crackling. There was an error…in the test. Bok….Please wait while it is restored.]

Of course, Kyung-hoon had no intention of following those words.

He dusted himself off and went outside through the hole in the ceiling. “ Wow

…. “Is it some kind of movie set?”

The place he climbed was inside a huge dome. He had been wandering around the basement of the dome.

The dome, with its ceiling lit up, looked like a huge movie set.

Some of the city’s streets were built on one side, a forest on the other, and a ditch on the other side.

-This is a training battlefield. Each was created assuming a combat zone.

“Then are those coming towards us acting as monsters?”

Whoosh…whoosh…

thud. thud.

Iron robots over 3 meters tall were approaching Kyung-hoon.

It was an unattractive robot with the entire internal frame visible and a moving hydraulic pump.

It almost looked like an excavator or an automated facility at a steel plate factory.

-This is a work robot using a mana stone engine. They are also called golems, but they began to be introduced into the field some time ago. It is operated by remote control, but I had no idea that multiple devices could be controlled simultaneously.

“It was more than ten years ago.”

Kyunghoon looked above the robot.

In the distance, I could see an observation deck with many windows near the ceiling on the other side of the dome.

Numerous lights were twinkling inside the observatory, and a thick strand of electric wire was visible next to the observatory.

“Does that look like a control room?”

-Yes, it is the control room.

Kyung-hoon raised his weapon as he saw the approaching construction robot.

“Then we can go there and find out what happened.”

The robots are right in front of us.
