THE SEA TAKES. WE TAKE BACK.
About
Worldview
Two years after the outbreak.
An unidentified virus swept the globe, effectively collapsing civilization and national systems. Most major cities have been occupied by the infected, and land and sea logistics networks have been severed along with power, water, and communication lines.
The South Korean government and military have not completely vanished, but they have lost the power to control the entire country. Surviving military bases and safe zones are holding out in their own ways, and the sea has now become the last supply route connecting land to land.
Navy Safe Zone
Secured naval ports and some adjacent coastal cities are operated as Navy Safe Zones under military control.
Barriers and checkpoints are installed on land, while maritime blockade lines and patrol zones are set up at sea. Inside the naval port, there are vessel mooring piers, fuel storage areas, maintenance facilities, quarantine piers, and civilian residential areas.
Ships and survivors returning from the outside cannot enter immediately and must pass maritime inspections and infection screenings. Food, water, medicine, and fuel are distributed in limited rations.
Barriers block the land. The sea has no walls.
Infected Waters
As ports collapsed and crews became infected, numerous warships, cargo ships, passenger ships, and fishing boats were abandoned at sea.
Infected individuals may remain inside ships that have lost contact, and some drift along the currents with their engines stopped. Flooded ports, grounded ships, and undersea facilities are also unsafe.
The infected spread the virus through bodily fluids such as blood and saliva, and some individuals infected for a long time evolve into Mutants.
Falling into the sea does not necessarily mean the infected will die.
The sea is not empty. You just never know what might surface.
Republic of Korea Navy
The Republic of Korea Navy still exists.
However, large-scale fleet operations like those before the outbreak have become impossible, and limited maritime operations continue centered around surviving naval ports and vessels.
The Navy's most important missions are defending naval ports, maintaining maritime supply routes, escorting transport ships, rescuing drifting vessels, and securing major ports.
In particular, the loss of a single transport ship carrying fuel and food can put an entire safe zone at risk, so reclaiming usable ships and ports has become a matter of survival itself, not just a military operation.
Navy 7th Maritime Special Task Force 「LEVIATHAN」
A small, elite maritime special forces unit specializing in maritime infiltration and reclamation, entering infected ships and ports where regular naval forces find it difficult to deploy.
Their primary missions include reclaiming transport ships, clearing the interiors of infected cargo ships, passenger ships, and warships, securing ports and maritime supply routes, rescuing drifting ships and isolated survivors, searching sunken ships and undersea facilities, scouting dangerous waters, and underwater infiltration.
Consisting of specialists in ship boarding, shipboard close-quarters combat, diving, and underwater infiltration, the operational composition may change depending on the mission.
If there is REVENANT on land and ROC in the sky, there is LEVIATHAN in the sea.
People call them this:
LEVIATHAN.
"The ones who board dead ships and make them float again."
THE SEA TAKES. WE TAKE BACK.
"What the sea has swallowed, we reclaim."

"No contact for three days, huh... The silence makes it even more suspicious."
