Nano Machine (Web Novel KR)

Beep Beep Beep! Beep Beep Beep! It was the moment when the mechanical bracelet on Chun Mu-seong’s wrist rang.

Startle!

‘This?’

Chun Yeowun, who had become more sensitive to the circulation of qi after realizing the flow of energy in nature, was startled.

Foreign energy engulfed the surroundings to the extent that it completely reversed the natural flow of qi.

Woah!

The space distorted, and something appeared.

The forms were dyed in the bright light behind them.

His descendant, Chun Mu-seong, urgently sent a telepathic message.

[Ancestor! Please release me… ah!]

Thud!

Fell.

Even if he hadn’t asked to be released, Chun Yeowun released him the moment he sensed the foreign energy.

When the restraint on his body was released, Chun Mu-seong hurriedly tried to grab something out of his bag.

It was then.

Four people, covered in bright light, pointed something that was in their hands and aimed.

Then something fierce was released.

Push!

The fired objects spread around and nailed into the ground in four directions exactly ten feet away.

[Spacetime canceller has been activated.]

‘What?’

Along with Nano’s voice, strong energy rose from the small machines, which were embedded in four directions.

Chi-chi-chi-chi!

It was as if they were cut off from the outside. The circulation of qi was completely blocked.

‘What is this?’

[A new space has been formed, which excludes all actions that may interfere with time and space.]

He didn’t understand what it meant, but he had to find out soon.

The beeping sound kept ringing from the device that Chun Mu-seong had halfway taken out of his bag.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

[Warning. Warning. Warning.]

“Damn it!”

Chun Mu-seong ended up cursing.

He tried to jump through space and time using the time sphere, but he was too late.

Frustrated, he looked at the figures who were still in the light.

Strong energy was condensing on the unique sticks aimed at them by the men who surrounded them.

One of them exclaimed.

“Freeze! You’re under arrest.”

The moment he heard those words, Chun Mu-seong raised his hands to the sky.

At first, Chun Yeowun was puzzled but soon found out that the language wasn’t Chinese but English.

‘This one. Was he being chased by these guys?’

It seemed like the reason Chun Mu-seong was nervous was them.

Regardless of the age, it wasn’t misunderstood. The act of raising both hands clearly meant surrender.

“Hey! You! Freeze!”

At that moment, one of the people in the light shouted at Chun Yeowun.

He had already mastered English with the help of Nano, so there was no way he couldn’t understand that.

‘You over there! Did he just speak to me without respect?’

Chun Yeowun was pissed.

Chun Mu-seong, who noticed that Chun Yeowun was upset, hurriedly spoke to the one in the light.

“This man of this age has nothing to do with me!”

“What are…”

[Ancestor! Just, just hold on for a second! If you taunt them, they will search your body and take away the Nano Machine.]

‘Take away Nano?’

Surely, that was impossible.

The 7th generation Nano Machine was made of Gatelinium, which couldn’t be tracked or detected.

But there was an ‘if.’

If they found any traces of Nano, it was impossible to know how they would react.

‘To solve this problem without a fight, I need to prove that my ancestor is an ordinary civilian of this age.’

At that moment, Chun Yeowun asked.

[Why the hell are they glaring at me?]

It was briefly explained by Chun Mu-seong.

[TP… Time Patrol.]

[Time Patrol?]

[Ugh, in this era, they are like guards or watchmen…]

Before Chun Mu-seong could explain, one person from the Time Patrol moved closer and spoke.

“Chinese? Are you Chinese?”

They were speaking in English, then they suddenly spoke Chinese.

They seemed skillful.

“I will scan for identification.”

Beep!

With those words, the person brought out a small machine in front of Chun Mu-seong, and then a red line ran across him from head to toe.

And a voice came out of the machine.

[Identity number: chi-adu9483294-319.

Search number records.

Name: Chun Mu-seong.

Born: AD year. 2914.11.03.

Residency: Guangxi. XXX city. New development district. Sky Corporation’s District D office building.

Occupation: Director of the Sky Corporation.]

Hearing all the information coming from the machine, a grunting sound could be heard from the person.

“This is huge.”

Woong!

As soon as the scan was done, the light around their bodies soon subsided.

As the light subsided, their bodies, which were dressed in unique clothes like Chun Mu-seong, except that they all had gray clothes with star and moon patterns engraved on their chests, were visible.

Srrr!

Soon, the one in front of Chun Mu-seong, his head moved.

No, it was similar to the helmet of Chun Yeowun’s Gatelinium Nano Suit being removed.

‘This…’

Chun Yeowun’s eyes lit up.

The only man who took off the helmet was blonde with blue eyes who seemed to be in his forties.

He looked at Chun Mu-seong with interest and said.

“I wondered what kind of a criminal we were still chasing after despite the constant pursuit and several near misses. For that person to be Director Chun, this has to be fucking messed up.”

At that, Chun Mu-seong bowed his head without saying anything.

“You are well aware that unauthorized time travel and manipulation of the past are the worst felonies and are punishable by life imprisonment and even death, right?”

Pull.

The blonde pulled out a silver sphere.

Then, Chun Mu-seong put his hands together and brought them to the front, and the man placed the sphere on his wrist.

Cha-cha!

Miraculously, the silver sphere turned into handcuffs.

“You are being placed under arrest without a warrant under Article 35 of EU.TP Criminal Code as a current offender of crimes of unauthorized time travel and time manipulation. It is stated in advance that the EU.TP Criminal Law cannot claim admissibility for the arrest. If you have an excuse, say it now.”

“Detective, this person has nothing to do with me…”

“Even so, those in contact are unconditionally put under the EU.TP Criminal Law as long as they come in contact with us. So, let’s not fool each other anymore. Mr. Chun.”

“This was an accident…”

Before he could even finish speaking, electricity flowed out of the handcuffs he was wearing.

Crackle!

“Kuuuk!”

His whole body convulsed and collapsed.

The man waved his index finger left to right, and Chun Mu-seong was screaming.

“Tch, tch, don’t do anything stupid. Director Chun. Have you seen the movie series 008? We also have the license to kill. Rebellion can result in immediate execution under the EU.TP Criminal Law.”

The man said that he could kill Chun Mu-seong at any time, and one person of the Time Patrol approached Chun Yeowun.

Then he pulled out a strange silver stick device and pointed it at Chun Yeowun.

When Chun Mu-seong saw that, he was startled and tried to speak telepathically.

[Ancestor!]

Kwak!

“Ack!”

At that moment, the blonde trampled on his neck.

“Since you are Chinese, I thought that there might be another means of communication. But man… what was that? Ah, if you use those techniques… well, I guess your excuse about not knowing that man isn’t valid anymore, right?”

“Kuuuk!”

Woong!

The helmet closed again.

He nodded his head after he covered Chun Mu-seong’s eyes with his hand.

Then, the one holding the silver stick in front of Chun Yeowun spoke in the Jianghu’s language.

“Okay, now! Look here.”

Flash!

A dazzling flash erupted from the tip of the stick.

“Damn it!”

A harsh sound came out of the mouth of Chun Mu-seong, whose eyes were covered.

He was well aware of the Time Patrol’s device to erase memories.

It was a device used by the state secret agents as well, and he was told that the light and the small sound that flows in affects the brain’s memories.

And it also allows one to manipulate memories along with erasing them.

The machine was called ‘Man in White.’

The voice of the Time Patrol officer dealing with Chun Yeowun could be heard by Chun Mu-seong.

“Man. Now you have never seen the man lying there or us.”

It was fine so far.

Because memories of this moment were the only ones removed.

It would be great if that was all, but there was no way that the Time Patrol would be so lax.

“Any memories of that man will disappear. All your memories will go back to the time before you met him.”

‘No!’

This was the worst outcome.

If that happens, then Chun Yeowun’s memories will go back to before he injected the Nano Machine.

Chun Mu-seong, who heard that, wanted to interfere, but,

Kuk!

“Cough! Cough!”

The blonde had stepped on his neck, so he couldn’t even scream, let alone move.

One more flash of the device will end everything.

The man lifted the Man in White and tried to use it again.

It was then.

“What?”

He wanted to lift the device.

Crack!

Thud!

The device fell to the floor.

And it wasn’t just the device.

“Arm? My… my… my… armmmmmm!!!”

‘!?’

At the word arm, Chun Mu-seong had no choice but to doubt what he just heard.

Did his ancestor just cut off the arm of a Time Patrol officer?

Clench!

“Kuck!”

Their suit automatically stopped the bleeding after their arm was cut off, but then the person’s neck was caught.

Shocked, the other Time Patrol officer’s raised their weapons and aimed for Chun Yeowun.

“Freeze!”

“Don’t hold back! If he moves, shoot!”

With that, red dots began to appear on Chun Yeowun’s body.

There was a strange energy in the red light.

[All the firearms’ are focused on the user. Would you like to activate the Gatelinium Nano Suit?]

‘No. It’s okay for now.’

The weapons looked dangerous, but from the information that Nano relayed to him, there was no need to open the Nano suit.

At that time, the leader of this Time Patrol unit, the one who was pressing on the neck of Chun Mu-seong, shouted in a bewildered voice.

“Damn it! That man must be a martial artist! If he moves even a little, shoot him!”

Hearing that command, Chun Mu-seong trembled.

‘These guys have figured it out.’

Under normal circumstances, no matter how life-threatening the situation was, the Time Patrol would never attack people from the past.

However, just now, a shooting order was issued.

The Time Patrol knew how dangerous the command was. It would change history.

This meant that they knew a time paradox had occurred, and the future had been divided into several time axes.

At that time, Chun Yeowun opened his mouth, directing his words to the Time Patrol officers.

“I don’t know who you people are. But there is one thing I am certain about.”

“?”

“You guys have started the fight. From now on, anyone who moves even a little will die.”

One of the Time Patrol officers who heard Chun Yeowun’s shouted.

“What? You crazy bastard! So what if you learned martial arts! You will die if I shoot!”

And then he tried to shoot.

The one next to him was shocked and tried to stop him but to no avail.

“Wait! James is still in his hands…”

“I don’t care! And he’s wearing a suit.”

And he fired the gun in his hand.

Dudududdud!

The number of bullets continued to decrease on the screen next to the gun.

A little over a hundred bullets were consumed in an instant.

The martial artist should be dead by this point, so he stopped, but,

“Yah, what is…”

Float!

All the bullets were suspended mid-air.

All a hundred bullets were floating.

He was at a loss for words, but Chun Yeowun simply raised his index finger towards him.

And,

Swoosh!

Papapapapapak!

“Kuaaakk!”

In an instant, more than a hundred bullets stopped in the air and then flew back towards their owner and pierced their suit.

All the others were shocked.

“No way!”

“Bu-Bullet proof suit?”

The suits they were all wearing were bulletproof, and one of those suits just got pierced right in front of their eyes.

Only

“So, this is martial arts?”

This wasn’t the martial arts they knew.

To those who were perplexed, Chun Yeowun spoke in a cold voice.

“Try moving again, okay?”
