The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 131

Episode 131 Buff (3)

Roche has three main characteristics.

When starting a battle, be sure to apply a buff to yourself and the enemy at the same time.

It is usually called a traffic light buff because it creates a red, yellow, and green aura on the body.

Each buff has its own characteristics, and depending on how you interpret it, it can be either a buff or a debuff.

First of all, red doubles the attack damage, but also doubles the damage received from the opponent.

Yellow increases mana consumption twice as much as usual, but reduces skill cooldown by half.

Green activates instant death points. This means that there are points where abnormal damage is applied.

This is not a skill, but rather an automatically activated buff, so it is impossible to steal.

In any case, it was true that it was a significant variable in battle.

Roche’s favorite skill, ‘Selfish Addiction’, amplifies the effectiveness of his buff skills.

For that reason, if selfish indulgence is linked to the traffic light buff, hell is literally unfolding.

At that time, Park Dong-jae said.

“Where should I focus my brother’s buff?”

“Go at your own pace!”

Kang-hoo gave Park Dong-jae the choice. Buffers must be active.

In a tense battle scene, it is not possible for combatants and buffers to communicate the type of buff they want every time.

The thing that should best be applied to the saying, “If you pretend, it’s perfect,” is actually a buffer.

However, Park Dong-jae seemed to have been thinking too passively until now.

Perhaps it was not Park Dong-jae’s fault, but rather the problem of the team members who treated him.

Kang-hoo believed in Park Dong-jae.

He is a buffer who knows how to think and a buffer who enjoys thinking intensely.

“Hehe! after!”

Roche, seeing Ganghu, took a deep breath and pretended to throw a one-two punch with both hands.

Kanghu put Mad Solarchium in his mouth just in case. I didn’t eat it, but I can eat it anytime.

‘Hold on for now until the green buff appears.’

The direction was clearly decided.

Roche is clearly a stronger and more durable monster than himself, so a head-on fight is not a good idea.

It is difficult to establish an equivalent exchange with the red buff. And the yellow buff isn’t particularly attractive.

Roche seemed to have read Ganghu’s intention to move cautiously, kicking the ground and aggressively charging at him.

It was his calculation to enjoy maximized damage by selfishly indulging in the red buff.

[Illusion Art]

[Illusion Art]

Two skills were used at the same time.

The alter egos were naturally mixed among the illusions that spread out in a spiral around Kang Hu.

Because Kang-hu is aware of even the smallest speck of dust in his body, the appearance of his alter ego and his illusion were the same.

“Hehe!”

However, Roche looked at Ganghu on the right side with an expression that said it was no big deal.

Easy profit! Pow!

I threw an uppercut with all my might.

It was a confident shot without a single hesitation.

There was a basis.

This is because Kang Hu, the only one on the right flank, was holding a dagger.

Whoops!

The uppercut, which went right under the chin, made a bone-crushing sound and sent Kang-hu’s body flying into the sky.

And Roche’s light punch was already exploding towards Ganghu’s body falling from the air.

at that time.

“Tsk!”

Roche’s body, which was about to throw a punch, was suddenly dragged backwards as if bounced by a spring.

It was a kidnapping.

What Roche had just coolly hit was Ganghu’s alter ego.

Pooh wow!

“Keuhuuuh!”

Ganghu’s dagger stabbed heavily from behind the waist and inflicted a deep wound on Roche.

The moment the dagger was thrust in, a massive beheading occurred immediately, so even his body didn’t have the talent to withstand it.

“Huh! Ugh!”

Roche frantically threw his fists in all directions, trying to get as far away from Ganghu as possible.

Even though he landed a blow, he is still a threat, so Kang-hoo didn’t use any more turns here.

This is because if you get caught up in the guy’s arms, you could be defeated by a counterattack without even being able to get a single bone out of it.

It was neither a very stupid monster nor an overly smart one.

He was a guy who could think ‘in moderation’. Therefore, Kang Hu did not blindly underestimate intelligence.

at that time.

“and. “I was fooled too.”

Park Dong-jae, who was watching the battle from afar while giving Kang-hu an acceleration buff, looked surprised.

This is because Park Dong-jae also thought of Ganghu holding a dagger as his true self.

As expected, the other illusion and Ganghu’s alter ego (which he thought was his real self) was not holding a dagger.

‘Oh on purpose?’

Smart Park Dong-jae immediately figured out Kang-hoo’s strategy.

It was intentionally pretended to be fake. It’s so obvious to anyone that it’s fake that they don’t even think about suspecting it.

“….”

After understanding Kang-hu’s strategy, Park Dong-jae instantly felt goosebumps rising along the back of his hand.

I never thought I would think twice and come up with a variation of the past exam. If you’re clumsy and smart, it’s easy to get beat up.

“Tch!”

Roche bit his lip when he realized that the skill he was trying to use while moving a short distance to Ganghu did not work.

If it were another hunter, he would have used the skill called ‘Blink’, which allows him to instantly move a short distance.

Because it was suppressed by Ganghu’s fifth constellation effect, the skill itself was not implemented at all.

“Woohooooo!”

Roche chose to go head-to-head.

This time, it began to attack Kang-hu violently, emitting strong shock waves in all directions.

“hmm.”

Ganghu, who was about to use an illusion spell, stopped. It was not a simple shock wave, but a shock wave that twisted the flow of magic power.

In other words, even if an illusion was used now, there was a high possibility that the illusion would be neutralized as soon as it was created.

If you try to fight for no reason, your options may drastically decrease.

Roche’s charge was fierce.

The distance narrowed in the blink of an eye, perhaps because the amplification of the Selfish Indulgence buff was used to speed things up.

【Shadow Walk】

This time, Ganghu sent five shadows flying straight behind him.

This is because Ganghu’s body served as a shield to block the flow of shock waves coming from the front.

The shadows that stretched backwards in a row, using Ganghu’s body as a wall, were not affected by the shock wave.

‘It’s really fast.’

Park Dong-jae is maintaining his full buff status, so he can at least follow his movements.

I was sure that if he had come without a buffer, Ganghu would have been reduced to a handful of bone dust.

If you increase the number of people you target, you will be able to catch them easily.

However, this reduces the efficiency of growth.

It seemed comforting to think that this level of pickiness was always a fixed value.

“Wow!”

Roche, who rushed in right in front of Kanghu, this time came in with a punch from the top.

From the beginning, Ganghu had no intention of stopping Roche’s attack. I just wanted to completely avoid it.

Papat.

I easily avoided Roche’s first attack by switching positions using Shadow Walk. It’s so neat that I think it’s so clean.

“Keueuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu being…!”

Roche, who seemed very intoxicated, drooled thick saliva.

It was a shot that took a lot of care, but the result was nothing more than a whirlwind in the air.

“way!”

Roche, who had been babbling something incomprehensible, gave his legs as much strength as he could this time.

It is a movement just before leaping.

Since humanoid monsters strictly follow human movements, they were able to read their targets in advance.

Wow!

There was a loud noise, almost like a sonic boom, that made me think that this is what it sounds like when space is split.

Roche, full of venom, was aiming for Ganghu’s torso with a straight punch.

Papat!

Evasion using one of the remaining shadows worked again.

The impact of the shock wave emitted by Roche earlier had disappeared, so the shadows were dispersed in all directions.

“Ugh!”

Bang bang!

When the two blows failed one after another, Roche, who was so angry that he hit the ground, hit the ground.

That’s because he was just shoveling in the air, desperately chasing Kang-hu’s shadow.

‘Hidden skills won’t work.’

Ganghu judged calmly.

The temptation to kill with a single blow is stronger than ever, but Roche is a guy who moves really fast.

If you are unlucky, you may be attacked right at the preparation stage. Of course, if that happens, it is difficult to avoid instant death.

So, what Kanghu chose.

【Skill of Death】

One of the attack skills that Roche used just now was used as a skill of life.

The official name of the skill chosen was Uppercut, which Roche used in his first attack.

Right then.

Seeing. Seeing. Seeing.

With an unpleasant cry, a green buff was applied to Ganghu and Roche’s bodies at the same time.

Activation of instant death points.

Roche was created under the chin and Ganghu had a dot placed in the middle of the abdomen.

“Big!”

Without having time to think about what to do next, Roche jumped again after seeing the mark on Ganghu’s stomach.

Roche was also overloaded due to repeated attacks and leaps with all his might.

It was nothing compared to his obsession with killing the person who kept making fun of him right in front of him. No, I ignored it on purpose.

After confirming Roche’s leap, Ganghu chose a shadow again and changed its position.

It was an evasive maneuver that could be used without pressure as there was still room for shadow.

But this time.

“Huh!”

Roche noticed the shadow that had changed Ganghu’s location and immediately turned around.

It was a sharp turn that made a loud clicking sound in the knee joint, but it was Roche’s target.

“…!”

Conversely, Kanghu’s eyes grew bigger than usual when he saw Roche’s plan, which caught him off guard.

If things continue like this, you will be left without a move.

but.

【Quick Evasion】

Ganghu used a basic skill for the first time in a long time.

It was a quick dodge.

The reason was clear.

【During evasive maneuvers, the barrier effect of resistance is activated. The evasion rate for skills increases.】

If you get the timing right, you can see the effect of the barrier of resistance and see the evasion rate increase significantly.

A significant increase in evasion rate also meant that the probability of being hit by an enemy attack was greatly reduced.

The distance Ganghu moved with quick dodge was about 75cm.

It was a distance that allowed him to narrowly avoid Roche’s upward strike.

In fact, he could have avoided it more easily, but Kang-hu wanted to make sure that the distance he had calculated was accurate.

What if it’s wrong…?

I planned to use self-defense to last one turn. Since I had insurance to protect my life, I made a bold move.

Huh!

“Tsk!”

Roche’s fist passed in front of his face with a difference so small that it could be said to be a thumb’s difference.

At that moment, a strong wind blew up so that Kang-hu’s face was caught in the wind and distorted.

But in the end, Roche’s attack failed. Unfortunately, it was either a miss or not.

【Skill of life – upward strike】

【Grave beheading】

And then Ganghu’s turn came.

Easy profit! Push!

The decapitation skill linked with the upward strike instantly penetrated under Roche’s chin.

Of course, it was designated as an instant death point because of the green buff.

Even if it wasn’t an instant death point, it was an attack that would inevitably turn the inside of your face into a rag if you hit it.

“Kwaek!”

Kang Hu’s dagger broke his jawbone and penetrated his muscles and tongue, hitting Roche’s brain.

It was the moment when Kang-hu’s strategy of planning and waiting for the perfect shot shined.

“It’s crazy, it’s crazy…”

From far away.

Park Dong-jae’s trembling voice sounded faint.

A picture of victory that was invisible to him. It seemed like Kang Hu had a plan.
