The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 244

Episode 244: Norway (5)

Meanwhile.

Kanghu confirmed that Odaf was able to see through everything, including the hiding of Muyoung and Gigyo’s veil.

Since it is a monster that clearly communicates with nature, it seems to have slightly more developed senses.

However, every time the presence weakened, I felt that the attack speed slowed down and the reaction was delayed little by little.

This means that more time must be spent to find the presence. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t work at all.

So, Kang-hu, who was cautious, used the ‘Suppression’ option in the Sea of Tranquility.

“Kuruk…?”

Then, Odaf, who was unable to pinpoint Ganghu’s location at all, struck him with a tree trunk in the distance.

Rather than hitting because I felt something, it felt like I was hitting based on intuition. Of course it couldn’t work.

Odaf wasn’t the only one who missed Ganghu’s location. Park Dong-jae, who was observing the situation, did the same.

I had just updated the buff so my skills weren’t messed up, but I couldn’t find Ganghu’s location.

‘Has your hiding ability been upgraded?’

Because Park Dong-jae had been diligently cultivating his senses, he was able to track Kang-hoo’s location until just now.

But now I couldn’t get any sense of it at all.

I always followed the flow of mana that I felt from Ganghu, but I couldn’t feel it at all.

Just as a person can feel their breath when they breathe, a hunter’s mana cannot help but feel its texture.

There was no trace of Kang-hu, as if he was controlling everything.

Footprints are not left where they should be. Then, of course, you cannot follow the direction.

at that time.

‘done.’

Kang-hu, who saw that certain evasion was activated as the state of not being hit continued for a long time, began to sprint.

There was no need to waste time as the pattern analysis for Odaf was completed. The sooner you win, the better.

Sssssssut!

Ganghu obeyed the wind blowing from behind and increased his speed a little more.

Even though he increased his speed considerably, Odaf was unable to find Ganghu’s location.

but.

Tuk!

When Kanghu deliberately stepped on a tree trunk that irritated Odaf’s nerves, Odaf’s eyes widened in front.

And he swung the tree trunk, which was the fastest and thickest he could reach, at Ganghu.

It was intentional.

This is because the value of this exchange increases when you draw out the opponent’s most important hand in advance.

Gooooo!

A thick tree trunk flew at once and hit Ganghu. No, I thought I hit him.

But a problem arose.

Huh!

Even though it was clearly aimed at Ganghu’s body, the tree trunk went astray.

Ganghu, who initially believed in definite evasion and did not pay any attention to the tree trunk, was already throwing his dagger.

Lightning rain!

Ganghu’s dagger flew in with a roar and stuck right in Odaf’s eye. In human terms, it was the forehead.

“Kaaaa!”

Odaf screamed.

In the meantime, Ganghu, who had narrowed the distance further, leaped with all his might and inserted another dagger in the spot where the dagger had been inserted.

This time it was a major beheading.

Pushushushu!

Body fluids splattered everywhere.

It was Odaf’s blue liquid, no different from blood in human terms.

Grumble!

Kang Hu did not stop here, but took a step back and immediately deployed his Fire Dragon Spear.

Pooh wow!

Soon, a spear of fire was struck in the forehead again.

Odaf’s focus bounced wildly. It was because I couldn’t hold on to my dazed mind for a moment.

【Flame of Death】

Utilizing the darkness, burn the flame of death hotly at the spot where the Fire Dragon Spear was embedded.

【Blood Fire】

A fatal blow was given to Odaf, who had accumulated explosive damage that he could not handle, with Blood Fire.

Puff poop!

The explosion that occurred above the snow destroyed Odaf’s eyes and nose, as well as the entire core center within it, including the brain.

All that remains are muscles fluttering reflexively.

As soon as it ended in an activated state of execution, Odaf immediately lost his breath. It was a perfect instant death.

【The level has increased significantly to 248!】

As predicted, the level has increased by 5 at once.

A level spike that I have never experienced except when my level was much lower.

It was truly amazing how the experience bar filled up five times in an instant. It’s a sight you don’t see often.

【The constellation ‘The Keen Observer’ is interested in your unusual fate. We believe that you have a lot of luck and luck.】

【The constellation ‘Mad Investor’ is impressed by your growth and is readjusting the level at which you are expected to die from 350 to 550.】 【Multiple

constellations We are deeply interested in your progress as you continue to maintain your growth momentum.】

‘A crazy investor does not adjust the target amount, but rather predicts the time of death. ‘Should I be thankful?’

Anyway, I felt quite good as the constellations that had been quiet recently began to respond.

Getting the attention of the Constellation means more is better, and the more often the better. This means that the growth potential is high.

If the hunter cannot even see the cotyledon in the first place, the constellation will not be twisted. Even if it’s twisted, there are a lot of bad quality constellations.

【The constellation ‘Pure Black Hypocrite’ cautiously applauds you.】

‘Hmm? ‘Is it resolved?’

I thought I must have misread the name, but it turned out to be Pureheuk Hypocrite, the younger brother of Pureheuk Seeker.

The two met while robbing the Constellation after Go Kyung-ho’s death.

However, it was impossible to know what would happen next as both of them were diving to see if there was a problem that needed to be resolved.

Looking at the hypocrite’s reaction, it seems that the problem has been resolved in some way.

【Thank you for waiting, contractor. the problem is solved. I sincerely congratulate you on passing the exam.】

It was a bit late in the celebration, but it still felt good to receive praise from the person who wrote the test.

‘Is everything resolved well?’

Ganghu asked through ‘thoughts’.

As long as the will to communicate was involved, it was possible to communicate with the Constellation without having to speak out loud.

He then extended his hand towards Park Dong-jae, who was walking towards him, and asked him to give him a moment.

This is because I wanted to organize the battle situation after finishing the conversation with the Constellation.

I also have to decide which skills to steal from Odaf. I planned to go through each one in turn.

【My younger brother lost his mind for an unknown reason outside the territory of the Great Crusade, and afterward, he became as if he was possessed by something.】

‘If it is outside the territory of the Great Crusade…’

【It is literally true. It means that the constellation has gone outside the area where it can stay safely. It was a wrong choice born out of misplaced curiosity.】

‘I see.’

The story outside the Great Seongjeon is not in the original work. In the first place, there was no story that could be a variable on the Constellation side.

However, I intuitively thought that what I was hearing now seemed like a ‘variation’ that was perfect for becoming a variable.

【And then I arbitrarily signed a contract with the Hunter and hid in a place that could never be found within the Great Temple.

The reason I asked the contractor to be killed is because if the contract is terminated or renewed, he will be forcibly summoned to the central square of the Great Temple.】

‘That became my test.’

【Anyway, even if it wasn’t my brother’s job, similar content would have been tested. There is nothing to be upset about.

I think it will take some time to regain my brother’s lost memories. This is all I can tell you for now.】

‘Thank you. ‘You didn’t have to tell me.’

【You must observe manners. Now that my younger brother’s mental inhibitions have been lifted, perhaps a constellation effect has been added. Please check.】

As the seeker said, I checked the information related to the pure black hypocrite constellation and found that one was added.

The existing content related to Gwanghwa Awakening remains the same.

【The abilities of the guardian deity constellation of the Dark Sanctuary are doubled as the owner of the constellation.】

‘Oh.’

It seems that the relationship between the pure black hypocrite and the guardian deity of the dark sanctuary was a master-slave relationship.

Thanks to.

【Guardian of the Dark Sanctuary】

【Gives the ability to convert 25 magic power into Dark Age 2. It is possible to create Dark Age 2 in just 1 minute.】

All numbers previously written as 1 have changed to 2. This is good news that Kang-hu had never thought of.

I felt good because it felt like I had received a bonus since I received compensation that wasn’t there due to the time difference.

However, the story about the area outside the main sanctuary kept bothering me. What else is hidden there?

How far has this damned ‘unconscious’ expanded its octopus?

As I had the original sin of being a ‘rice cake mess’ in the original work, I was also concerned about the unconsciousness that could not be predicted well.

In the future, it seemed like I would have to find more clues and piece together a plausible story puzzle.

after.

Ganghu chose one of the most useful skills from Odaf and stole it.

Because it was a tree monster that had a fighting style that attacked using the trees connected to it to begin with.

There were no skills used in battle. So the stolen skills were also close to non-combat skills.

【Sympathy – Plant】

【Skill Proficiency: Lv. Max】

【Use this skill to determine whether plants are friendly or unfriendly to you by color.

Plants that are clearly determined to be friendly will never attack you.】

When I looked at the dead Odaf using the Communion skill, a red line was clearly visible along the edge.

Even if he dies, it seems that the hostile tendencies that remained during his lifetime do not immediately disappear.

On the other hand, the tree that allowed Park Dong-jae to safely evacuate had a green outline. It was easy to distinguish.

There are more plant monsters than you might think, with intelligence and a tendency to target hunters.

Although it is a communication skill limited to plants, it looks like it will have a lot of uses in the future.

Around that time.

K was drinking heavily in broad daylight with the old man of a thousand years for the first time in a long time.

Perhaps because they are two people who are said to be very alcoholic, their facial expressions did not change at all even though they drank over ten bottles of soju.

If we put away the soju bottle, we could just move on and say that we were happily having lunch together.

The thousand-year old monk asked.

“How are you doing with Mrs. Kang?”

“sure. I get along well, but then I get really caught up in it. haha.”

“okay. It’s right for you to live like that. “You can’t tell me how glad I am that I didn’t marry that damn bitch.”

“older brother. Don’t say that too much. “Isn’t she the woman I once loved?”

“love? What is love! “She was a witch, a witch!”

“Shinryeong, let’s stop talking about it. “Isn’t that all in the past anyway?”

“Hagiya. “I said something for nothing.”

“Anyway, brother. “Have you thought about the disciple thing I mentioned before?”

K started his luck.

Even though K is not a very foolish person, I really wanted to give Kang-hu to a veteran.

A combination of a talented teacher and student. This is because it is a promising combination.

Although he was negative when he brought up the topic a few times before.

As K kept repeating his thoughts, I felt more curious than antipathetic.

This is because, given K’s cautious nature, there is no way he would introduce him to someone who looks like an idiot. The faith was certain.

“Is this a guy I would recommend so much?”

“yes. “I’m sure it’s a cotyledon.”

“What do you know about assassins? Among the guys I’ve recruited so far, not a single one had grit. But are you going to fool me again?”

“You will change your mind when you see it.”

“Shin Ganghu. I also looked into it because you were talking so much that my mouth was dry. Shall I tell you the conclusion?”

“Then that’s good.”

“He is not an assassin.”

The conversation between the two, which had been cordial, suddenly froze. There was a chill between the two for a long time.
