Muan International Airport
Kang Dohyun, Kang Dohun, and Lee Gaeun rode their kickboards along the expressway.
The highway they traveled was the Muan-Gwangju Expressway, and the reason they were heading west toward the Sea of Japan was simple.
"Let's swing by Muan International Airport before we head back to the uninhabited island."
It was his older brother's suggestion. Muan International Airport — it had become a dungeon.
The journey along the Muan-Gwangju Expressway was uneventful.
"Zombies ahead."
When zombies appeared, Dohyun turned to Gaeun.
"Gaeun-ssi, want to give it a try?"
At his suggestion, she made up her mind and answered.
"Yes, I'll give it a shot."
And so Lee Gaeun stepped forward. And she really did try hard.
"Hya!"
She swung her axe, fighting the zombies. With weak attack power, she worked desperately, dodging zombie attacks and striking repeatedly to hunt them down.
The two brothers watched her frantic combat.
"Hyung, honestly, how was she?"
"Well... she's an ordinary person."
It was admirable that Gaeun was trying so hard, but she was ordinary — honestly, a little lacking. She had a mental-related trait that gave her good posture, and a speed-related skill that let her dodge well, but that was all she had.
"Still, she's the one you like."
"Yeah, I do like her."
That was the important fact. Even if she was lacking, Dohun didn't care. The brothers were simply too strong — it didn't matter at all.
What the group encountered along the expressway wasn't just zombies.
"This time, it's people."
When Dohyun detected them with his presence sense.
"How many?"
"About twenty?"
At the news of roughly twenty people, the group dismounted their kickboards and walked forward slowly, talking as they went.
"We'll try talking first, right?"
"Right. Though I doubt it'll work."
After answering his younger brother's question, Dohyun looked at Gaeun.
She wasn't an exceptionally beautiful woman, but she was a decent young woman. With a woman like this in their group, the chances of lawless people letting them pass were extremely low.
"When the fight starts, you charge in fast, and Gaeun-ssi stays by my side."
The strategy for this small-scale fight was simple.
Dohun would handle the enemies in close combat, while Dohyun would pick off approaching foes with ranged attacks. And Gaeun, honestly, just needed to stay by Dohyun's side and protect herself.
As they continued talking and moving forward, the reaction of the lawless people they met — no, the bandits — was exactly as expected.
"There's a woman! Attack!"
Three of them — the bandits, thinking Dohyun's group was outnumbered, decided to attack and charged.
"Dohun-ah, kill them all."
"Okay!"
Dohun charged forward and began slaughtering the enemies with his fists. Some of the lawless people rushed toward Dohyun and Gaeun, but —
"Thwump, thwack!"
Qi arrows fired from the crossbow struck the bandits' heads, shattering them before they could even get close. They died instantly.
And so a very leisurely battle — no, a massacre — unfolded.
Watching the two brothers fight, a thought formed in Gaeun's head.
These people are incredible.
They casually tore through more than twenty enemies. No — the number wasn't the issue. Last time, they'd faced nearly fifty enemies, and even then the brothers had massacred them one-sidedly.
They were completely unfazed.
These two operated on a completely different level from ordinary people.
Asking Dohun-oppa was the right call.
Gaeun confirmed that being with him was the right decision.
After traveling along the Muan-Gwangju Expressway for about four days, Muan International Airport began to come into view in the distance.
And as they approached within a certain range —
You have entered the dungeon.
The three of them passed through the white barrier and entered the dungeon area, and the surroundings of Muan International Airport came clearly into view.
"Hyung, that's not normal over there."
"Tell me about it."
An enormous number of zombies surrounded Muan International Airport. A truly staggering number of zombies.
When the apocalypse began, people fell into chaos. And some of them —
"Let's flee to another country."
Thinking this, many people from Gwangju and Jeollanam-do flocked to Muan International Airport.
But Muan International Airport was a dungeon area.
So the people who entered through the barrier around the airport couldn't escape it, and in the end... most of them were bitten and infected by the existing zombies at the airport, turning the place into a large-scale zombie dungeon.
The Muan International Airport dungeon, packed with an enormous number of people.
"Hyung, what's the condition for getting out?"
"Obviously, clear it."
The only condition for leaving a dungeon was to clear it.
So then —
"How do we clear it?"
"I don't know."
Dohyun knew that Muan International Airport was a dungeon, but he didn't have much information about this particular one.
"But since it's a dungeon that was cleared relatively early on, the clear condition probably isn't too difficult."
At his brother's words that it wouldn't be hard, Dohun thought, It'll be fine.
Before clearing the dungeon, they decided to set up a base camp first.
"Hyung, how about here?"
"It's in the middle of the road, but let's make this our base camp."
At the Muan Airport IC — it was a road where cars used to pass, but it was at the dungeon entrance area, at a distance from the airport, and on relatively high ground, so they decided to set up their base camp here.
"Base camp" was a grand name, but in reality it was just a place to sleep. Gaeun took the initiative and started setting up tents.
Quick-witted Gaeun naturally volunteered for the miscellaneous tasks. She set up the tents, prepared two sleeping bags, and naturally got food ready as well.
While Gaeun handled various preparations, Dohyun and Dohun held a strategy meeting. The plan was —
"Presence detection shows the airport is packed with zombies inside."
"Any special undead?"
"None."
"So it's just a lot of them, then?"
"Yeah, at least over three thousand."
An enormous number of zombies, but the fact that there were no special undead was important.
"Then it's easy."
"Easy. But it'll be a long fight."
No matter how strong the two of them were, they couldn't take down three thousand at once. That meant a long campaign — dealing with the zombies over several days.
While the two of them discussed strategy —
"Dinner's ready."
Gaeun finished preparing dinner and called the two of them. The three of them ate together while continuing their strategy discussion.
"No matter how weak the zombies are, there are too many of them, so we need to be careful."
"Got it. Hyung, you'll be doing close combat too?"
"I have to. I can't kill three thousand with ranged attacks alone."
The moment Gaeun heard the number three thousand, she froze.
Three thousand... kill three thousand zombies?
Shocked by the enormous number, Gaeun was stunned, but seeing her reaction, Dohun comforted her.
"Three thousand is a lot, but it's definitely doable."
"It'll probably take about three days, right?"
Watching Dohyun and Dohun talk so casually, Gaeun nodded.
As expected, they're incredible.
The two brothers talking as if hunting three thousand zombies was nothing made her feel they were extraordinary.
When night fell, the three of them finished preparing to sleep inside the tent.
Dohyun used one sleeping bag alone, while Dohun and Gaeun were about to share one sleeping bag.
"Oppa, will it really be okay?"
Gaeun spoke with a hint of worry.
"Don't worry. Three thousand zombies is annoying, but it's not a number we can't handle."
Dohyun and Dohun's athletic ability and physical capabilities had long surpassed the human range, and on top of that they had strong attack power — as long as they didn't let their guard down against ordinary zombies, there was no way they'd lose.
"Still..."
When Gaeun continued to worry, Dohun hugged her tightly and said.
"Really, don't worry. I'm more worried about you, Gaeun-ssi."
At his words that he was worried about Gaeun, who would be left behind while the brothers went hunting, she sighed and answered.
"No, the person going to fight three thousand zombies is worried about the person staying in the tent?"
As they talked, the two of them exchanged affectionate gazes. And so Dohun's hand —
"Eep!"
Slipped between Gaeun's thighs and stimulated her, and she rolled her eyes and said in a small voice.
"Stop it. It's not just us here right now, you know."
When she glanced at the sleeping bag beside them, Dohun moved his hand more with a slightly playful expression.
Squelch.
"Eeep... haa..."
As his fingers touched her clitoris and labia, strange moans leaked from her mouth.
"Please... stop..."
She pleaded for him to stop.
Dohun found Gaeun's shameful, pleading expression even more appealing.
"I can't hold back."
In the end, he took off his pants. And despite Gaeun's resistant movements, he pulled her pants down too.
Then he pressed his hot member against her crotch.
"Please... please... oppa, please..."
Despite Gaeun's pleas, Dohun eventually inserted himself into her body.
"Haa, haa! Hhh..."
She tried her best to suppress her moans, but small sounds still leaked between her lips.
Dohyun, of course, was aware of the moans and hot breathing coming from the sleeping bag next to him.
Good timing.
Wishing his younger brother happiness, he pretended to sleep.
And so the first night inside the dungeon — a strange first night — passed.
