The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 234
Episode 234: Underwater Battle (5)
After reading the complicated thoughts in Go Kyeong-ho’s eyes, Kang-hu increased the tempo of his attack again.
This is because it seemed like there would be more things to worry about if he used Gwanghwa Awakening.
Because the variable of invincibility was added, there was a high possibility that time would become a headache.
This time, Ganghu aimed for the neck that was at eye level.
‘It’s obvious.’
An attack that comes in too honestly to show off.
Although Go Gyeong-ho was suspicious of Kang Hu’s intentions, he could not let the attack go, so he blocked it with his sword.
I thought there might be camouflage, deception, or lateral movement, but there were no signs.
Cough!
Soon, Ganghu’s dagger collided with the sword and sparked fire.
It was a stronger blow than I expected, but I was only slightly amazed because I successfully blocked it.
however.
Sigh!
“Bwa…!”
An accident occurred.
It was obviously after Ganghu’s dagger had passed, but something had grazed his neck in an off beat.
At the same time, I felt a cold sensation in the front of my throat, and then something hot started flowing down.
Fortunately, the carotid artery was not severed, but the front of the uvula was cut.
‘Heresy cut?’
I couldn’t believe it.
My skills have returned.
The double cut, which uses magic power cut over time, was a skill of his that was quite rare.
To begin with, it was a sword-only skill, so it was highly unlikely that Kang-hu, an assassin, would have learned it.
Even if you learned it, it wouldn’t have enough damage to cut like this. But it happened the same way.
Huh! Huh!
Go Gyeong-ho swung his sword left and right dizzyingly, blocking Kang Hu’s approach that could have continued immediately.
It was an unsystematic counterattack, but Go Kyeong-ho, caught up in the fear and helplessness he felt at the hands of Kang Hu, could not remain calm.
‘How much has changed?’
I had already familiarized myself with the files related to Shin Kang-hoo.
This is because Kang-hoo is already known as a fearless guy, and like Jeon Se-hyuk, he was a hunter who would encounter Eclipse at any time.
Moreover, as it was one of Kang Dong-hyun’s interests, his confidant never neglected to analyze it.
The problem is that skills that are not included in the known information continue to pour out as if they are proliferating.
Even with the upgrade, it was too much.
Rather, because my thoughts were confined to the framework of information I was familiar with, I was more easily affected by unexpected variables.
I can feel the blood continuing to pour from the front of my neck and shoulders.
There is no time to stop the bleeding and the rain keeps pouring down, making it the worst environment to stop the bleeding.
If he continued like this, he would get caught up in Ganghu’s pace and die from excessive bleeding. We have to win.
“Haaaab!”
In addition to fighting spirit, the skill chosen by Go Kyung-ho was one that released sword energy in all directions.
Attack.
This is the swordsman’s level 200 basic skill. In addition, it is also a highly skilled skill that he has consistently trained.
Sigh!
Go Gyeong-ho’s sword made a whining sound and poured out fierce sword energy.
Since the inside of the pit was not wide, it was not possible to block just one or two swords.
Papat. Pot.
However, Ganghu easily completed the evasion by changing the location of the shadow that had been placed outside in advance.
Before Ganghu’s appearance disappeared.
Go Kyung-ho could see Kang-hu smiling at him.
Kang-hoo has already left the pit. The sword that lost its target dug hard into a pit.
Ganghu, who was outside the pit, glanced inside and disappeared out of sight with an unpleasant sneer.
“pup!”
Go Kyung-ho cursed and jumped again.
This time, I prepared to dodge in the air, keeping in mind Ganghu’s lightning strike and pushback.
I was planning to dodge the flying dagger by twisting my body as much as possible or bending over.
however.
“…?”
I was able to land out of the pit without any issues.
Was there no timing?
Or is there a problem with mana utilization due to excessive use of skills?
Anyway, Kang-hu went all the way to a point about 10 meters away and stayed in place.
He seemed to be slightly out of breath and taking a break, indicating that he was probably facing physical problems.
‘Of course it is.’
Since he used several skills in succession and suffered a wound on his side, Kang-hu will not be fine.
Go Kyung-ho’s expression, which had been stiff throughout, began to relax. Now is the best time to push.
As I became more confident in my judgment, my entire body suddenly gained strength.
Go Gyeong-ho, who had already forgotten about the pain in his left shoulder, held the sword tightly with both arms.
Tadat!
He kicked the ground with all his might and started running. However, as soon as I started, I felt a strange feeling in my ankle.
When I looked down, I saw an ivory-colored solid line shining in the space where there had been nothing until just now.
“Fuck…”
Before I could say ‘that’s done’, an accident occurred.
The moment Kang-hoo saw Go Kyung-ho’s feet caught in the low-lying line of distortion, he activated the distortion.
It was a well-aimed success.
Go Kyung-ho was very emotionally upset, and his senses were largely dispersed due to the bad weather.
A sense of heterogeneity unique to the diagonal lines of distortion that would have been felt normally and if detected meticulously.
However, the raindrops that continued to fall stimulated the body’s sense of touch, making it impossible to fully concentrate on one sense.
Card knock!
“Kwaaah!”
Go Gyeong-ho could not hold back any longer and screamed loudly.
I felt an intense pain in my left ankle, as if I was cutting my ankle with a saw.
Let your mind, engulfed in pain, quickly begin to become tinged with terror and fear.
Go Kyung-ho immediately began preparing to activate Gwanghwa Awakening.
This was the best for now. This is because at least for the time you become invincible, you are free from pain.
But that thought was too convenient. Things in this world don’t go as planned.
【Blood Flower】
Puff pop!
A blood flower appeared before my eyes.
Go Kyung-ho could see it.
His left foot, which had been attached to his body until just a moment ago, was flying in the sky.
Gwanghwa awakening was activated, but his left foot had already been lost.
That wasn’t all.
The wound on my left shoulder also exploded and my muscles were completely torn.
I didn’t look away because I was afraid of looking directly at him, but there was no doubt that he was a slut.
in between.
Ganghu used the alter ego technique and the illusion technique Shadow Walk in succession to block the front view.
On the other side, Go Kyeong-ho’s eyes were filled with illusions and shadows that resembled Kang-hoo, making him feel nauseous.
Shoot ahhh.
All you can hear is the sound of rain.
Every time the rain and blood mixed together and soaked the ground, Go Gyeong-ho’s pride also became damp like water-soaked paper.
Slurp.
Soon, the golden energy surrounding his body makes him feel invincible for a moment.
The pain disappears for just this moment and makes you feel satisfied as if you have everything in the world.
“It’s not over yet.”
Go Gyeong-ho somehow stepped onto the ground with his severed left foot and aimed the tip of his sword at Kang-hu.
I really wanted to hit that guy who was cowardly standing back and waiting for time to pass.
Go Gyeong-ho bit his lip and drew a large vertical line with his sword, creating a storm of harsh sword energy.
Slash.
It was Go Kyung-ho’s deadly skill, who was notorious for cutting down everything that stood in his way.
Wow!
The slash flew with a roar, pushing the falling raindrops into the sky and reversing order.
Eventually, the shadows and illusions of the clones caught in the slash also became a hazy smokescreen and dispersed.
Go Gyeong-ho, who was always trampled by Kang Hu.
I was confident that there would be a significant change in the war situation from now on when the Gwanghwa Awakening was activated.
It would start with that brave slash.
however.
Chaaang…!
The slash that penetrated the smoke screen made a strange sound.
That wasn’t Ganghu’s scream, the sound of flesh being cut, or the sound of a dagger being smashed.
It felt like something collided with each other and shattered like glass. It was a clear sound.
Next moment.
Phew!
What appeared through the smoke screen was not a trace of the slash that had hit Ganghu, but a shattered ‘piece.’
With the scattered fragments of the slashing skill as the background, Ganghu’s Black Moon Slash flew in with a booming sound.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
When he recognized the existence of the Black Moon Crush with his eyes, the projectile of the Black Moon Clash was already right in front of Go Gyeong-ho’s nose.
“Mr….”
I urgently raised my sword, but it was no use. late. Black Moon Cham cut off Go Gyeong-ho’s head without hesitation.
Suddenly!
“…foot.”
The one syllable he uttered before his throat was cut off became Go Kyung-ho’s last words.
That was the end.
Go Gyeong-ho, who suffered a poor decision in the battle between the slash and the black moon slash, lost his life like that.
“It would be disappointing if the hidden skill was defeated by a normal skill… Ugh.”
Kang-hu groaned and sat down in his place.
Although he endured it until the end, there was still an aftereffect of the counterattack from Go Kyung-ho earlier.
Because the attack repertoire involves frequent rotation of the waist and torso, the injury to the side was clearly very uncomfortable.
It was certain that Go Kyung-ho was dead.
Because the constellation was hijacked right away. The pure black hypocrite and the bloodthirsty soma were registered in the constellation window one after another.
To be honest, it seemed like there would be no need to write about the pure-black hypocrite in the future.
No matter how much power you need, it’s okay to risk your life. Would it be easy once to do it, would it be difficult to do it twice?
【I think I’ll have to leave for a while to urgently sort things out with my younger brother. Contractor, thank you for your hard work.】
The pure black seeker disappeared, leaving only what he had to say.
Of course, the reward for passing the test was immediate. This is the opening of the fourth and fifth special benefits.
However, the person involved disappeared without even having time to talk. It was so quick that it could be said to be urgent.
【Now that I have met my brother, I will at least regain my lost mind.】
The Dimension Stealer muttered.
Looking at the texture of the story, it seemed like there was a story involving the seeker and hypocrite brothers. I don’t know the details though.
【Congratulations.】
I heard the Dimension Stealer say his congratulations in a heartless tone.
【As expected, he is my contractor! I always have no doubts about it, but this time too you proved your dignity and nobility!】
I could feel the wilderness strategist burning the plane with all his might. She always reacts like this.
at that time.
The constellation catastrophe that is rarely spoken of – darkness also added its words.
It seemed like it was too awkward to even congratulate them, so they seemed to change the topic in a different direction.
【The Pure Black Hypocrite is an aberrant constellation that accounts for about 5% of the Great Crusade.】
“What if it is an aberrant constellation?”
【It is a constellation that has been corrupted for some unknown reason. Whether it’s mental illness, brainwashing, or oppression.】
“Is it also related to God’s wind?”
【That’s a problem I need to look into and pursue. Just because it’s a constellation doesn’t mean we know everything about it. The problem of the Great Crusade is unknown territory even to us.】
A problem of the constellations that even the constellations do not know about.
The deviant constellation is a setting that has never appeared in the original work. Ultimately, it is a setting derived from the realm of the unconscious.
anyway.
If you think seriously about a problem that doesn’t have an immediate answer, you won’t find an answer.
‘First, let’s start with the perks.’
So Kang Hu also turned his attention.
With the newly added fourth and fifth perks from Seeker of Pure Darkness.
