{Kim Dokja POV}
The people approaching me started screaming. The cries of monsters were heard from outside the screen door. The feast of monsters moved like an angry wave.
The platform of line 3 quickly became a mess. The faces of the people became speculative as they watched the monsters coming from all sides. The bounty scenario was completely forgotten about.
Now was the only chance. I shouted to my party.
“Go to the transfer route!”
I started jumping up the transit stairs with my friends. By the time we reached the upper level, people were blocking the path.
I kicked some of the followers and pulled out a blade. The people were surprised by the White Pure Star Energy blade and backed away.
“You haven’t grasped the situation yet.”
“W-What?”
“Even if you come up, you won’t be able to survive.”
There was a sense of despair in the expressions of the people. There were no more rooms. Now there were no more safe zones from the monsters in Chungmuro.
I triggered the Blade of Faith and used it on the transfer stairs.
The centre of the staircase fell with a large sound, along with the people. It was cruel but necessary.
Lee Hyunsung was already running. I smashed the transit stairs we came up on and there was only one staircase remaining. Subsequently, the sound of arguing and something breaking was heard on the other side.
I looked at the lower floor that was becoming pandemonium. If I left it like this, they would all be killed. Whether it was from the monsters or using each other’s bodies as a stepping stone to come upstairs.
This wasn’t what I wanted.

I activated the third bookmark.
[The number three bookmark has been activated.]
[Incite Lv.2 has been activated.]
Suddenly, it felt like my tongue was coming alive on its own. This was how Cheon Inho felt. I looked downstairs. In the middle of the mess, I could see a middle-aged man.
“Hey Gong Pildu. How long are you going to stand there?”
Gong Pildu glared at me.
“This dog…!”
“Don’t you have to act in order to live? If you move, everyone else can live.”
The power of Incite permeated the ears of all the frightened people.
Gong Pildu’s expression distorted. I felt good. This was what Cheon Inho would’ve felt at Gumho Station.
“The third scenario isn’t as hard as you think. Once everyone gives up on the rooms and participates in the defense, there are enough people to handle the monsters.”
My words were half true. If Chungmuro had united before I arrived here, there would be far less victims. After all, the biggest pitfall of this scenario was the green zone.
“If Gong Pildu fights with the people, you can survive.”
Those who fight together would survive, those who ran away would die.
[The sponsor behind Lee Jihye agrees with your wisdom.]
[The constellation ‘Maritime War God’ nods his head.]
“Now there are no rooms for you to run away to. Forget about whether you are a landlord or tenant and fight. Or you will all die.”
The more urgent the situation was, the more the effect of Incite would increase.
The alliance members gathered around Gong Pildu. If he ran away here alone, Gong Pildu’s Landlord Alliance would collapse. In the end Gong Pildu made his decision.
The key was Gong Pildu’s Armed Zone. However, the weak point was that Armed Zone took time to install every time it moved.
As expected, the first ones who abandoned the formation were the tenants, not the alliance members.
“Yoo Sangah-ssi.”
“Yes. Please leave it to me.”
I didn’t need to explain it. Yoo Sangah already understood what she needed to do.
Her Binding Thread stretched out and started to rescue the people who couldn’t fight anymore. In any case, their mission was to buy time for Gong Pildu to deploy Armed Zone.
The tenants hung from the threat and were pulled upstairs.
The rescued tenants were shaking as they wrapped up their injured area. In the meantime, some of the people with weapons carefully looked at me. I smiled at them and said.
“Oh, do you want the bounty?”
[The time limit for the bounty scenario has expired.]
