The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 2

Episode 2 Escape (2)

The jailer’s clothes were taken away and not worn. Because it was a third-class prison guard uniform.

To escape as planned, you will need at least a level 2 guard uniform. Not this guy.

First, Ganghu picked up the long sword that the dead guard was holding.

It was a weapon item corresponding to the 8th grade in the hunter’s item system, which is classified into a total of 9 grades.

【Goblin Warrior’s Long Sword】

【Grade: Grade 8】

【Strength +10】

‘It’s simple.’

There are no special effects.

Of course, 10 degrees of strength was worth it.

Especially for Kang-hu, whose body is barely above that of an ordinary person.

Currently, Kanghu’s strength is 5.

If he increases this by 10, he can have a body that is at least the level of weight training that he has been doing for several months consistently.

【Would you like to register the Goblin Warrior’s long sword in the ‘Weapon’ tab?】

Registration completed immediately.

This is because, due to the structure of the hunter’s system, if the item is not registered in this way, the stat effect will not be applied.

Since you can only register one weapon, having a lot of weapons does not give you all the benefits.

‘You have to go to the front door.’

Kang Hu’s gaze was directed towards the main gate, which was heavily guarded.

Only by going there can you choose the shortest route to escape.

It is also the escape route chosen by Shin Kang-hu in the original work.

It is a set model answer.

It is also a reasonable choice because there are not many permanent guards at the Cheongmyeong concentration camp.

This is because hunters with combat skills mostly participate in dungeon raids rather than camp management.

‘It’s a trap over there.’

I saw Cheongmyeong Mountain to the northwest.

At first glance, it looks like a safe escape route as it is dark, the road looks complicated, and there are no security facilities.

Nooses and traps were the most dangerous, as in some places, caves were dug into the ground.

It was a trap intentionally set up by Eclipse. If you go there, you will definitely die.

‘I need to get some attention.’

Kang Hu, holding a long sword, walked in front of building 18 of the camp with long strides and started walking in the other direction.

It was a nearby executive-only residence.

The straight line distance from camp 18 is close to 50m.

Perhaps because it was time, everyone was asleep except for one guard who was on watch.

In any case, if an emergency situation arises, the siren would sound, so it was inefficient and there were not many on-watch guards.

The moment when I held my breath as much as possible and tried to close the distance to the guard who was nodding off.

“hmm······?”

The guard, who sensed a subtle presence, opened his eyes.

Since the guards were all hunters, their keen senses could not be ignored.

Bago, which Kanghu also expected.

Since he was a strong man who permanently gained the power of a dimension stealer, there was nothing he couldn’t solve this situation.

Faaah!

The distance was over 10m, but Kanghu used his leaping skill to quickly narrow the physical distance.

Rather than flying in the air for a long time, it was more like a rapid movement in space.

Ganghu’s position changed in an instant, as if he disappeared and appeared out of sight.

Suddenly!

He cleanly decapitated the guard who was on watch with the long sword he had taken from the guard he had killed earlier.

No matter how high-quality reinforcement equipment you wear, it is difficult to protect your neck, which is the most vulnerable part.

Tooung!

The head fell down helplessly.

Both eyes looked at Kang-hu with a devastated expression, but Kang-hu kicked the guard’s head without even making eye contact.

And immediately took off the clothes he was wearing.

Now we are about to begin our escape in earnest. Camouflage is essential to gain even a little time.

Even if the main entrance is a shortcut, you can’t wear inmate-specific clothing such as a prison uniform, right?

I changed my clothes in the blink of an eye.

There was blood here and there on my clothes, but it wasn’t a big problem.

All you have to do is treat a foolish inmate and blame it on the blood that spattered on them.

That kind of thing is one of the things that happens like eating in the Cheongmyeong concentration camp.

Meanwhile, I quickly changed the shoes that were easiest to take off.

Level 9 item shoes.

With shoes that increase the agility stat by 5, it seemed possible to expect a 10% increase in the main effect.

In the first place, since he is a strong player with a ‘pretty good main force’ due to his unique talent, synergy should be fine.

Grumble! Grumble!

Kang Hu took the oil can that was near Gansu-dong and started pouring it all around.

Since it was early spring, it was still cold, so the oil was prepared along with firewood to start fires here and there.

After completely emptying the oil tank, he lit it with a lighter taken from the dead guard’s inner pocket.

Grumble!

Then, flames soared over the oil strip along the outskirts of Gansu-dong.

This was the beginning of an escape plan.

* * *

time goes by.

As the growing flames came into view along with a distinctive burning smell, guards in other buildings who were on watch or had woken up began to recognize the situation.

“what? “Is it fire?”

“It’s in front of building 18! Who did this? “Shouldn’t the incineration of corpses be done in the incinerator building, not the gansu building?”

“Call the fire extinguishing team!”

Since fires were a frequent occurrence, no guards panicked.

Since it was a crime scene that exploited former hunter prisoners, it was not only prepared for emergency, but was also prepared to go into battle in case of emergency.

This is because you must be able to quickly subdue the inmates so that their manpower can be fully used in the magic stone mine.

Meanwhile, around that time.

Kanghu was confidently walking towards the front gate.

With the steps of a jailer, no matter who sees it.

【The guards had no idea that Shin Kang-hu, who confidently came to the front gate, was an inmate who would attempt to escape.

The gaze and bright lights put great pressure on him, but the more they did, the more confident Shin Kang-hu walked.】

It was a step that was faithful to the original content.

Kang-hu did not rush to run, nor did he look around with an anxious expression.

Right then.

“stop!”

Slam!

I heard the sound of lights going up at the same time in the guard posts on either side of the main gate, and the lights illuminated Ganghu.

Since the guards work in rotation, they do not know each other’s faces.

Unless you see their faces up close, it would be difficult to tell whether they are fellow guards or inmates.

Ganghu shouted calmly.

“Hey it’s me! Building 18! “There’s a fire in our building 18, but the fire is stronger than expected, so I think we’ll need some support!”

Because of the situation, I acted more slyly.

At the same time, he raised both arms and pointed behind his back with the tips of his thumbs, and the gaze that had been focused on Kang-hu also turned backwards.

“Oh fuck. “Is it fire?”

“Which bastard is smoking a cigarette?”

Attention was appropriately focused.

Soon the light went off and interest in Kang-hu faded.

Meanwhile, Kang-hu hurried his steps toward a car that came into view.

It was a car that was just about to start.

There were already two guards in the driver’s seat and passenger seat.

Because it was an open military jeep, you could see which guard was riding inside.

Three skull shapes. He is a level 3 guard.

The guard from whom Kang Hu took the clothes and wore them was a second-class guard and was superior to them.

As Kang-hu approached, opened the door without hesitation and sat in the back seat, the driver tilted his head and asked.

“Is there a problem?”

“There is a prison escapee. I went through the barbed wire to the northwest of Building 18. “I’m trying to find a way for him to escape.”

Kanghu answered calmly.

These were things he couldn’t have known because it was a world he had created.

It was the answer I had thought of from the beginning, so there was not even a moment of hesitation or hesitation.

“······I’m sure you have an assigned car.”

The guard in the passenger seat glanced at Kang Hu, but since he was a superior, he could not complain further.

“Are you going to lose your energy by having this conversation here? Or do you want me to get off and walk?”

“no. sorry. Then, we will take you to the desired location first.”

In response to Kang-hu’s scolding, the driver scratched the back of his head and stepped on the accelerator.

Kanghu crossed his arms, looked as relaxed as possible, and waited for time to pass.

Soon the two guys in front will notice something suspicious. It’s definitely a far cry from what a jailer looks like.

Moreover, if you start looking closely at the blood stains, you may notice something strange.

The very act of trying to cover or hide something may actually raise suspicion.

Of course, the longer you notice it, even by a few seconds, the further you are from the front door.

Kang-hu decided to buy more time.

“Inmates bastards. “It’s easier to kill those who don’t listen, rather than putting them in solitary confinement.”

The driver agreed.

“Honestly, aren’t they losers who are hunters in name only and can’t even take care of themselves? “We are rehabilitating them.”

That was Eclipse’s slogan.

【Turn useless human trash into useful workers.】

The reason why Kang Hu was kidnapped to Cheongmyeong concentration camp was because of such absurd reasons.

The government and public power are limited to Seoul.

The rest of the world was in complete anarchy.

– Pass!

Meanwhile, after the final inspection outside the main gate, the jeep entered the road leading out of the camp.

After a period of silence, the distance from the checkpoint increased to more than 300m.

The guard in the passenger seat, who had been looking behind with a disapproving expression from the beginning, asked with narrowed eyes.

“Second-level guard.”

“uh?”

“When did you come to Building 18?”

“It came the day before yesterday.”

“It looks like you worked in Group 9.”

“yes.”

It was easy to answer this part because it was something Kanghu knew.

It’s also because I know who killed him.

But the problem was next.

“What was your password today?”

A password that only the guards know.

There is no mention of it in the original work, so even if you die and wake up, there is no way you will remember it.

Kanghu did not try to think of another answer.

A result that was predicted from the beginning.

There was only one answer.

Sigh! Push!

As if in a flash of lightning, he lifted the long sword that had been lying next to him and slashed the tops of the two guards’ heads in succession.

I didn’t forget to arrange for putting as much mana into the sword as possible.

Although it is not expressed in the form of a buff or skill, loading mana has the effect of strengthening the spirit.

“Huh…”

“Kukkeuk…”

The two guards reacted so quickly that if they had hesitated for even 0.5 seconds, they would have been in trouble.

The driver, who was dying with his eyes closed, had already cast a magic skill on his left hand.

The guard in the passenger seat stretched out his right arm and was aiming for Kang-hu’s shoulder with a dagger.

Coo!

“Ugh.”

A jeep that lost its driver hit a dirt wall on a road along a mountain road and came to a halt.

It was a collision that could have caused the car to be thrown out if Kang-hu had not held on to the handle.

ping······!

At that moment, Kanghu’s vision rotated as if the world was rotating 360 degrees.

“Damn mana hypersensitivity.”

I bit my lip tightly.

It seems like I just used up all my mana to power the strike, and my body was immediately overloaded.

Buuuuung!

The sound of the accelerator being pressed can be heard from the direction of the checkpoint.

Looking at the direction the headlights were pointing from afar, I was certain they had started in this direction.

‘It’s the final hurdle.’

Ganghu kept shaking his head to come to his senses.

The escape is not over yet.

There must be a period.
