The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 118
Episode 118 Park Dong-jae (4)
* * *
Kang-hu used the master key to deliberately open all the iron doors where the other hostages were trapped.
Of course, I didn’t forget to tell you one thing of caution.
“I opened the door, but I am not responsible for your safety. “The choice is theirs.”
It would be great if we could save all the hostages safely like the protagonist of a hero movie.
Kang Hu was not without such greed. Just because it’s not altruistic doesn’t mean there’s no blood or tears.
However, it was impossible to safely take all of the more than a dozen hostages.
Even the combat personnel inside the building are the only ones.
Everyone held hostage was a hunter, but they didn’t have any useful items.
This is because everything was taken away by the Osho mercenaries. It was only natural that he had been kidnapped.
In any case, if you do not have a core weapon, your firepower and combat power will inevitably decline even if you use skills.
“thank you! thank you!”
“Let’s stick together and go out!”
“Even if we run out separately, if we get caught, we’ll be dead!”
“That’s right!”
Still, perhaps because they are primarily hunters, they came to a consensus of thoughts and opinions very quickly.
However, some hunters did not appear to move inside even though Ganghu opened the iron door.
That too is a choice.
They probably want to be safe here rather than try to escape and die.
If you were to ask if it was a good choice, Kang-hoo could definitely tell you that it was not.
Whether or not the hostages and Kang-hu escape successfully, there is a high possibility that they will become victims of pointless anger.
‘Because I gave you the opportunity to choose, I also gave you the opportunity to take responsibility for the results.’
Kang-hu shook off his lingering feelings about the remaining hostages. Everyone’s fate is not your responsibility.
First, he used lateral movement to remain hidden and then moved among the hostages.
Rather than using them as a shield, it was a ploy to wait for the attention that would naturally turn to them.
just as expected.
“The hostages are running away! catch! You can kill a rebellious chick right away! Screw you!”
One of the Osho mercenary group’s hunters shouted after seeing the escape procession.
Although he didn’t seem to be the leader, he seemed to be in a position to command the five mercenaries who came with him.
“Let’s cover! “We are ahead in numbers!”
The man who naturally gave orders shouted among the escaping hunters. It was a wise decision.
If you panic and run away from here, the number of people killed will only increase.
Even if it means making some sacrifices, it would be quicker to attack them and seize their weapons.
【The Curtain of Technique】
Ganghu laid down the Curtain of Technique.
The stealth gained through lateral movement is canceled as soon as you start an attack, so you can hide yourself more clearly.
“Kill! “They have no weapons!”
The Osho mercenaries also immediately confronted him.
Everyone rushes in with the sole intention of escaping, but Kang-hu believes that the sacrifice of one or two people is inevitable.
But the two men on the front line caught my attention. They seemed to be absorbed in their mission to save people.
“hmm.”
It catches my eye.
If you use their ‘lives’, you can more easily exploit the mercenaries’ gaps.
I wanted to give points to the spirit of the two men who put their lives on the line even though they knew they were in danger.
To put it bluntly, it wasn’t that there was no way to help them. There is just a question of efficiency.
【Light Rain Blade】
【Light Rain Blade】
He used the Lightning Rain Blade skill in succession and threw away two throwing daggers that were in his arms.
It was a cheap dagger whose purpose was to check and block movement rather than to kill without needing to retrieve it.
Hehehe!
Two daggers flew through the narrow space of the hostages with a booming sound.
Phew! Fufu!
“Ugh!”
“Shit!”
It hit the mercenary who was swinging his great sword at the two men with the intention of splitting their heads in half.
One of them dropped his greatsword because the dagger was stuck in his armpit.
The other had a dagger stuck in the back of his hand, and the sword’s path was completely twisted in the final process.
“ah…!”
“Did you help me?”
The two men regained their senses.
They could tell.
That Kang-hu had just helped them overcome a crisis that almost killed them.
Right then.
Ganghu suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Ganghu, who had been invisible thanks to the concealment of the veil of skill, came out of the veil and revealed himself.
【As soon as you step outside the veil, the stealth effect disappears, the veil disappears, and you gain 2 seconds of doubled movement speed.】
Enjoy the benefits of the speed boost you can get outside the veil of finesse.
Fuwaaaaak! Puhwaak!
A dagger attack combined with a massive beheading struck the two mercenaries at once.
A situation so close that it appeared without a word, slit the throat, and passed away.
“Ugh!”
“Ugh.”
The two mercenaries found out later that something was wrong with his neck and quickly tried to stop the bleeding.
Push shoo shoot!
The blood flow rushing through the blood vessels was much stronger. Blood spurted forward like a torrent of water.
“You bastard!”
The three remaining mercenaries recognized Ganghu’s presence and tried to change the direction of their attack.
However, I could feel that the situation was getting worse as the two great swords dropped by the two mercenaries who had just died ended up in the hands of the hostage.
“No, let’s leave!”
“Throw a smoke bomb!”
One mercenary, who was quicker to judge than the two who lost their lives earlier, set off a smoke bomb.
As a result, the entire 4th basement floor became a chaos filled with smoke.
Kang-hoo was also caught up in the acting.
It was a situation where visibility was not possible even with night vision or any other form of vision.
However, Ganghu had the ability to detect the enemy’s location in a different way than usual.
The constellation scanning ability.
The three fleeing mercenaries each had a Constellation contract, and thanks to that, a red dot was visible above their heads.
In other words, even if it was not visible, the target point and direction could be specified.
“after.”
After taking a deep breath.
Easy profit!
With all his might, he threw the grade 2 dagger, Corrupted Faith, with lightning speed.
It was a blow thrown with confidence in Molis Maniche, the armored weapon capable of recovering the designated ‘recognition weapon’.
and.
“Ouch!”
One of Osho’s mercenaries, whose corrupt beliefs were stuck in the back of his neck, died instantly.
The dagger penetrated the exact center without any error and completely harpooned the cervical vertebrae.
“Fuck you…!”
“What is that bastard? “What the heck!”
The end of the five mercenaries who appeared on the scene with great vigor to subdue the hostages was pathetic.
Three people died and two walked away without looking back.
In such a hurry, they threw away the door that should have been properly closed so that it would automatically lock.
Thanks to this, their escape route was completely changed to the escape route of Ganghu and the hostage.
A total mess.
To begin with, they were the remnants of a mercenary group, and other than their name value, they were like a gathering of strangers.
Especially for those who had no attachment to the organization, settling things was a story from a far away country.
So from the inside out.
The fate of Osho’s mercenary group, which had been earning unearned income through the hostage trade, was speeding toward its end.
* * *
Zero hostage deaths.
Many mercenary deaths.
Things went much better than Kang-hu expected.
Because there was one more unexpected variable, the situation turned out in a good direction.
‘Even though the remnants were united, I thought there would still be some system or sense of mission.’
The enemy’s condition was too serious.
It was too selfish.
So even though he could have hindered and made it difficult for Kang-hu to pursue him or for the hostages to escape.
Instead of doing that, I just ran away without looking back to save my life.
Of course, one guy was still in his right mind.
The captain we met in front of the elevator on the second basement floor.
He was one of Jeon Jong-du’s henchmen, and his name was Park Jun. He was a hunter of the same assassin type as Kanghu.
He was an impressive man with short-cut sports hair and dozens of lip and ear piercings.
As soon as Park Jun saw Kang Hu, he showed hostility.
“네가 인질들을 제멋대로 풀어 준 개새끼구나.”
“네가 인질들을 제멋대로 가둬 둔 개새끼구나.”
Give back exactly what you said.
This is the best way to scratch the inside.
Kang Hu kept his distance from Park Jun. About 10m.
The battle between assassins and assassins was truly within reach in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps because they were both aware of this, a strange atmosphere of confrontation flowed despite the close distance between them.
“I lost my entire business because of you. Of course, if I kill you, there will be more than enough to restore it.”
‘The constellations are kind of interesting.’
Ganghu whetted his appetite by looking at Park Jun’s constellation information on the constellation scan. Then Park Jun shot.
“Do you like this guy? “Why do you lose your appetite again when you see me?”
“Because it looks delicious.”
“Huh… this is a fool.”
“Even if you have good ingredients, if you can’t cook it, it’s bound to be tasteless. “You are exactly like that.”
“What are you talking about, you faggot?”
Park Jun seemed to be thinking about the meaning of ‘taste’ mentioned by Kang-hu in a completely different direction.
Anyway, Kang-hoo slightly lowered his posture and prepared to respond to Park Jun’s movements.
Assassin vs. Assassin battles rarely last long. It ends in a short-term or ultra-short-term war.
So I didn’t even think about taking Solakium separately.
“….”
He is a strong player who usually enjoys attacking first, but this time he maintained caution against Park Jun.
Park Jun snorted when Kang Hu, who had previously been diligently cutting down other mercenary subordinates, became more cautious.
“I don’t know how you killed our captain. “Maybe I was lucky.”
“Maybe so.”
Ganghu nodded.
“Because the captain is the type to let his guard down a lot. “I talked to him over and over again, but he didn’t fix it.”
“Park Jun. What do you think about us quietly making a peace agreement here and each of us stepping down?”
“what?”
“Is there a need to lose each other’s strength and give up our lives for no reason? “If we just pretend not to know each other, I can escape and you can find a way to survive.”
“You idiot! “There’s nothing you can’t say with your mouth full of fear!”
Park Jun, who was quite proud of his skills as an assassin, thought that Kang Hu was scared.
In fact, Jeon Jong-du’s death was a difficult problem that remained unresolved for everyone even after that.
No matter how much you think about it, there is no way Jeon Jong-du, who has a high level and physical strength, would have lost in a one-on-one battle.
So, just before the battle, Ganghu secretly approached them.
I thought that Jeon Jong-du, who was concentrating on increasing his combat power by absorbing vitality, had missed the hiding.
A ridiculous death due to careless exposure to a gap. It was a plausible conclusion. It’s completely different from reality.
Kang Hu’s passive response immediately stimulated the belligerent Park Jun.
Originally, I had planned to gauge the timing of my attack by looking at the liver, but at this point, it seemed like going first would definitely have an advantage.
at that time.
Faaah!
Ganghu moved first.
He chose the straight attack method of fighting head-on by leaping and thrusting his dagger forward.
‘You idiot.’
Park Jun was not embarrassed.
His own organs were the quick dodges that made these attacks null and void.
It was an evasion skill that even received the effect of the constellation and was converted into an ultimate skill.
But at that moment.
“…?”
The evasion skill was not activated.
“Fuck you.”
Park Jun’s mind went blank.
Ganghu’s fifth constellation privilege.
He didn’t know that he was completely limited by his spatial movement skills.
