The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 117
Episode 117
‘Is there one person left now?’
The number of survivors is now 81. The moment the number of people reaches 80, Area 1, which was locked, is opened.
After checking the number of survivors, Bae Do-hyeon folded his arms and looked at the castle in front of him.
The height of the castle wall is 10m.
The moat surrounding the castle wall was dug 15 meters wide and filled with water.
There is only one way to the castle gate.
It is only a 3m wide bridge made of stone.
‘Even the moat was dug with great care and a stone bridge instead of a drawbridge…’
I thought there might be a bit of a problem in terms of structure, but I wondered if it could be a problem since it was a space created by illusion magic.
If you think about it, it made no sense that the water in the stagnant moat was rushing like a valley right after the rainy season, and it also made no sense to build a 10-meter-high wall to protect the small Yeongjugwan, which was only about 50 meters in diameter.
‘It’s all a setup, a setup.’
An artificial terrain created so that whoever dominates it can secure a geographical advantage.
At Raoul’s request to make the test more tense, Area 1 took on this strange form.
And Bae Do-hyeon arrived in front of District 1 just in time to take advantage of the geographical advantage.
‘When will they reveal themselves…’
Bae Do-hyeon took out a simple chair from his inventory and placed it in the middle of the stone bridge, then sat comfortably with his back to the castle gate and looked at the city.
There was an empty space about 100m long between Zone 1 and the other zones. So if someone approached me, I could recognize them at a glance.
Shhh.
An arrow flew from afar.
‘Are you looking at the liver?’
Bae Do-hyeon did not even think about standing up from his seat, but slightly stretched out his right hand and caught the arrow.
Judging by the fact that the shot was aimed precisely at his heart from a distance of over 100 meters, it could have been a skill correction or a real archery player.
However, Bae Do-hyeon was not a kind enough person to be hit by an arrow that flew at him so honestly.
Perhaps because they had noticed their skills, the arrows did not fly again and no one showed up.
But whether you like it or not, it will come to you eventually.
This is because in the last 10 minutes of the preliminaries, all zones except zone 1 disappear.
Since Bae Do-hyeon occupied the stone bridge, the only road leading to District 1, conflict was inevitable.
‘Well, I still have some free time.’
Only 30 minutes have passed now.
Bae Do-hyeon hummed leisurely and enjoyed his leisure time, guessing how the other players would move for the remaining hour.
* * *
‘there is!’
Seohyun found someone on the stone bridge in front of the castle gate far away.
Although I couldn’t see his face clearly, it was clearly Bae Do-hyun.
If not him, who else would show such a relaxed attitude in the middle of the battlefield?
The distance is approximately 100m.
Now that the system is being calibrated, the distance can be reached in about 12 seconds by sprinting.
It was unclear whether Bae Do-hyeon would really help her.
No, to be honest, I wasn’t sure if I could get through this crisis even if he helped me.
Even if Bae Do-hyeon joined, there were only two of them and there were more than ten people chasing her.
I didn’t know that Bae Do-hyeon might also be harmed by her.
‘But I have no choice.’
She didn’t come this way because she wanted to, and it wasn’t a situation where she could change direction now.
Seohyun made up her mind one last time and ran out of the alley and sprinted towards the castle gate.
And at the same time, she activated the special skill she obtained after reaching level 20.
‘[Sense of Phantom Beasts] activated!’
Then, without even seeing it with my own eyes, I sensed the surrounding terrain and felt new sensations that I had never noticed before.
This is part of the sense that her ghost, Silver Fox Eunbyeol, feels.
I tried using it as a test a few times, but this was my first time using it in an urgent situation like now.
“You must be dying to go out into the open.”
“Shoot and kill!”
“There is nowhere to hide. “Whoever catches it first is the owner!”
The voices of the Chinese players chasing me could be heard as clearly as if I were wearing earphones.
Piung ping! Empty!
Then, she felt the arrows and bolts they fired toward her brightly exposed back.
In a dangerous situation where a barrage of arrows seemed to pierce her at any moment, she actually became calm.
Tat tat.
And without looking back, she dodged more than a dozen arrows just by shaking her body slightly.
“what?”
“You’re showing off some tricks. “Keep shooting!”
But the crisis is not over. This is because her speed slowed down while avoiding the arrows, and the Chinese players continued to target her.
When she saw Bae Do-hyun standing up from his chair after seeing her, she shouted loudly.
“Avoid!”
She herself didn’t know why she shouted ‘Avoid’ instead of ‘Help’.
Was it because he felt sorry for getting Bae Do-hyun involved, or was it because he now had pride in not wanting to receive help from others?
Anyway, it was an empty cry. Because Area 1 had not yet been opened, there seemed to be no place to escape.
Pee it. Blood shot!
‘evil!’
No matter how much I awakened the sense of illusion, it was impossible to completely avoid all the arrows in the first place.
Although she was doing her best, several arrows had already grazed her shoulders, calves, forearms, etc., causing a burning pain.
Thanks to this, my speed gradually slowed down and my movements became sluggish.
‘little bit more…!’
As she frantically gritted her teeth and ran, Bae Do-hyeon passed by and said,
“Run straight and enter the gate.”
‘…! ‘When?’
How could the person who was clearly on the bridge just a moment ago end up here?
But she didn’t even have time to open her mouth. I have no choice but to look ahead and run.
And just as she was about to get on the bridge, a small window popped up in front of her eyes.
-The number of survivors has become less than 80. Area 1, which was locked, will be opened.
Googungung.
The translucent curtain surrounding the inner castle disappeared and the large wooden gate began to open with a small vibration.
* * *
‘hmm?’
A commotion was felt from afar. We also began to see glimpses of players moving on the roof of the building.
And the one who finally appeared was Korean player Han Seo-hyun.
It was a phantom beast summoner who guided him through the exam room.
The sight of her being chased looked very dangerous.
‘how will we do it?’
To be honest, I was thinking of not getting involved in disputes between other players.
There was nothing special about being a Korean player.
I wouldn’t attack first, but I also didn’t intend to help first.
‘If you ask for help, you can’t pretend not to know.’
With that thought in mind, I stood up, and Han Seohyun, who made eye contact, seemed to be about to say something.
‘I guess you’re asking for help.’
But the words to avoid came out of her mouth.
‘Hoo.’
Bae Do-hyeon’s heart was slightly moved by the unexpected reaction. I was just trying to keep it alive, but I thought it would be good to be more active.
Bae Do-hyun took out an extra spear from his inventory and quietly activated the ‘Flicker’ skill.
Flicker was a supernatural teleportation technology. Although it can be activated without delay, the distance it can travel is short, and there are significant restrictions on the number of times and cooldown times.
Still, if you can use it well, you can change the situation of the war and use it as a survival tool.
It was because of the combination of flicker and telekinesis that he was able to take out their souls during the battle with Shoichiro and his group earlier.
Pot.
Bae Do-hyeon, who had shortened the distance by 30 meters in an instant, accelerated even faster by pushing his body with telekinesis.
And in an instant, it passed by Han Seohyun and rotated the window like a windmill.
Ta-dak-dak. widely! widely!
The arrows and bolts aimed at Han Seo-hyun’s back fell to the bottom of the Ususu tree.
And three Chinese players with angry expressions were rushing towards Bae Do-hyeon like wild boars.
“Where are you acting like a hero? “Dude!”
“You look like a stupid Korean!”
“Die!”
Bae Do-hyeon also ran toward them, each holding a spear and sword, and moved his spear.
Push! Thong kudangtang!
“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm…”
Bae Do-hyeon’s spear simply punched a hole in the neck of the idiot who had jumped and swung his spear, and the subsequent swing pushed the swordsman aside along with the sword.
Thanks to this, the prosecutor, who lost his balance, hit Dosu and rolled on the floor together.
Sigh. Sigh.
The three idiots who rushed at them blindly without recognizing their opponent’s capabilities were unable to properly block Bae Do-hyeon’s spear even once and ended up with a hole in their necks.
“…crazy!”
A muttering sound could be vaguely heard from afar.
Teng Piung.
Of course, arrows continued to fly.
However, Bae Do-hyun dodged the arrows by simply stepping lightly and shaking his body.
Then, he released the bow slung over his back and fired arrows at them as if warning them. Perhaps because he felt threatened, the attacks stopped.
‘Well, if you get skill correction, you can hit while moving, but there’s no need to go that far.’
There was a brief lull, and Bae Do-hyeon was able to slowly back away and safely reach the top of the stone bridge where he originally was.
“are you okay?”
Has it gone up before you know it?
Han Seohyun was asking questions right above the castle gate, aiming her bow at the city area.
Looking at the blood dripping from all over her body, it seemed like she had entered the fortress as soon as she entered.
“It’s okay, so let’s treat the wound first. “They won’t attack us easily for some time.”
Bae Do-hyeon took out a chair again and sat down right in front of the gate at the end of the bridge and spoke comfortably.
“wait a minute. “I’ll go down first.”
And when she came down, she lowered her head first.
“Thank you for saving me! And I’m sorry for attracting enemies. “It wasn’t my intention, but I feel like I put Bae Do-hyun in danger, so I really have no shame.”
A smile appeared on Bae Do-hyun’s lips at the apology that felt sincere.
Maybe it’s just an insignificant greeting and apology, but it’s because I’ve experienced countless times people who don’t even follow these basics.
“are you okay. I have to take responsibility for what I said before the exam started. Get treatment first. “Then I will die from excessive bleeding.”
When Bae Do-hyun accepted the apology, Han Seo-hyun seemed to have relaxed only then, sighing and collapsing on the floor.
She took out a simple first-aid kit from her inventory and administered first aid, and Bae Do-hyeon looked back at the city, watching out for enemies.
After a while. After finishing treatment, Han Seohyun climbed up the castle tower again and asked as she prepared to fight.
“But. Mr. Bae Do-hyun, you have already done enough to kill him, so why are you doing this here? To be honest, there is no need to fight any more. Oh, if it’s an uncomfortable question, you don’t have to answer.”
‘well. There may be many reasons,
but ….’ The opportunity to fight without worrying about this many players will not come so easily.”
There was no reason to answer her question, but it was necessary to explain a little for the sake of the viewers watching this scene.
Wouldn’t it be a big deal if someone were to say that he was a murderer who liked killing people for no reason?
“ah.”
Han Seo-hyun was a little jealous of Bae Do-hyun, who confidently said things that might seem unlucky.
Who can call him arrogant since he proves it not only with his words but also with his skills?
‘If I learn at the academy, will I be able to become that confident someday?’
And suddenly it occurred to me. That she had four golden falcon statues stored in her bosom.
And just as I was about to ask about it, Bae Do-hyeon stood up and said.
“Someone is coming again. If you plan on fighting, get ready.”
Seohyun’s expression became tense again.
