The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 257
Episode 257: Versatility (2)
‘Hmm?’
Suddenly, something was added to the unique talent in the status window and I saw it blinking.
Added unique talents.
This is something that never happened to Shin Kang-hoo in the original work. Of course, it happened to the main character, Jang Si-hwan, in a way that is worth forgetting.
If the system determines that this is a hunter’s characteristic, unique talents may be added.
Judging by the blinking now, it seemed like the appearance in this dungeon attack was the decisive reason.
【Unique Talent: Fairly excellent main power / Very good visual acuity / Versatility】
‘Versatility?’
It is a short and intuitive word.
A word that symbolizes great talent and abundant ability. Of course, it makes you feel good when you hear it.
When a new unique talent is added in addition to the two existing unique talents.
The system provides perks to each target person one by one. The perks given to each unique talent are different.
‘okay. If a hunter as good as me doesn’t have the title of multi-talented, then who would give it to someone?’
It may be self-praise, but it is definitely not wrong, so Kang-hoo evaluated himself that way.
People around me have a habit of saying that I eat everything by myself. Versatility and texture fit well together.
【Depending on the addition of unique talents, you can choose one of the three perks below.】
It seems to be a three-way choice.
Kanghu followed his gaze and lowered his gaze.
【First, when learning skills from other occupations, the penalty efficiency increases from 10% to 25%.】
‘There is no need at all.’
This is the worst option for Kang-hoo, who has a way to learn with 100% efficiency using tricks. Dismissed.
【Second, all stats increase by 50.】
‘If the magic power exceeds 50, the Age of Savagery is neutralized. In return, stat 50? It’s not enough.’
Age of Savagery is a skill that reduces the magical power usage value of all skills by half. There is little motivation to give up.
【Acquire the third passive skill, ‘Intuition’. The path of long-distance attacks used by enemies less than 50% of the holder’s level is predicted.】
‘This is it.’
Ganghu chose the third.
Ganghu’s current level is 257.
If it is less than 50%, it refers to monsters and hunters that are level 128 or lower.
Predicting their long-distance attack path means that the expected path is displayed intuitively.
Considering that in group fights, you often get hit by the blind attacks of ranged dealers.
It was a skill that would be beneficial to have, but there was no harm in having it.
【The study of ‘intuition’ has been completed.】
‘As expected.’
As skill learning took place, information on how the skill was implemented was also acquired.
The movement path of long-distance attacks used by targets that meet the conditions is displayed in the form of a dotted line.
The color of the dotted line can be set in the detailed tooltip, and the default setting is gray-white.
It’s probably of little use in individual battles – there’s no way you’ll lose in a one-on-one match against an opponent whose level is less than half that level.
I smiled at the feeling that it would come in really handy when I had to deal with a large number of people. It’s a nice perk.
* * *
Thanks to Ganghu’s ultimate decapitation skill, the subsequent strategy proceeded without any problems.
Due to the nature of the dungeon without a middle boss, there were almost no obstacles in the middle.
Since the bleeding problem was completely resolved thanks to Ganghu, the attack speed was accelerated even with a small number of people.
Most of the strategy was completed in half a day. All that remains is the final boss monster.
The level was already 260.
The reason why the level kept rising, to the point where I wondered if this was okay, was actually simple.
This is because the level of the dungeon was much higher than the recommended level for Ganghu, a level 260 assassin.
Since the level is high and there are many experience points provided, Kanghu continues to be provided with more experience points than expected.
“King of the Stitch Golems. “I said this guy is just a pig with a lot of blood, as long as he can maintain the bleeding, right?”
“that’s right.”
“Actually, he’s the easiest guy in this dungeon. It would be more correct to call it a damage meter. “What if the bleeding continues?”
Oh Yu-jin smiled and answered Kang-hu’s question.
In other words, if you are having trouble maintaining the bleeding, it may take a year to control it.
In the past strategy where I had a hard time maintaining bleeding, it took a whopping 8 hours to catch this guy.
Overwhelmingly high stamina.
If you gnaw it down with an attack and there is no bleeding, you will recover more than 90%, so there was no answer.
But this time was different.
* * *
Two hours later.
The entire raid team, including Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae, had returned to the Guru Guild’s hideout, not the dungeon.
After completing the strategy and taking care of everything, they got back in the car and returned to their original location.
As agreed in advance, all by-products from the dungeon belonged to the Guru Guild.
Anyway, from the point of view of Ganghu, it was important to know what skills he could obtain from the King of Ragged Golems, but there were gains.
【Poisonous Blood】
【Skill Proficiency: Lv. Max】
【Applies your own blood to the weapon to make it toxic.
When an opponent is attacked and injured, it can cause paralysis or sleep poisoning.
The absolute success rate guaranteed according to skill proficiency is 22.2%.】
I was told that the blood spilled by the King of Ragged Golems had a strong odor and that eating it or seeping it into a wound could lead to abnormal conditions.
It seemed like this was a skill for him. Thanks to this, Ganghu was able to steal the poisonous blood by stealing the skill.
Although the absolute success rate is not very high and may be lower depending on the opponent’s anti-magic power.
As the material required for the skill is ‘one’s blood’.
It seemed like there would be many uses for it. Then, if the enemy falls into a state of paralysis and sleep addiction, it will become a variable.
“Thanks to the clear removal and reset of the boss monster this time, there is no need to worry about stabilization for the time being. Thank you, Kanghu. Dongjae, thank you for your hard work.”
Oh Yu-jin expressed her gratitude to Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae who were ready to leave. Then Oh Hye-jin, who was next to her, added her words.
“The attack strategy, that is, the tactic, has been clearly established, but there is one problem. “This is a tactic that cannot be established from the beginning without Kanghu.”
“Wouldn’t it be right to summarize that there is a hunter as an essential element rather than a tactic?”
“Aaaah!”
In response to Oh Hye-jin’s words, Ma Jin-ho tapped her shoulder and said,
Oh Hye-jin seems to have been hit slightly, but is pushed to the side for a long time. It’s so confusing whether it’s a joke or the truth.
“Anyway, please call me again if you need it. “It’s really dangerous if the dungeon isn’t stable.”
Ganghu spoke emphatically.
It seems that because the attack was not completed perfectly for a long time, energy accumulated and more experience points were provided.
Ganghu’s current level was 263. In this dungeon, I raised it to a whopping 8.
I thought that if they all knew that fact, they might not only be shocked but also quite upset.
Oh Yu-jin said.
“I want to do well on my own, but for this part… I have no choice but to rely on Kang-hoo. “I am grateful in many ways.”
“Because we need each other according to the partnership agreement. “We will continue to maintain this relationship in the future.”
From Ganghu’s point of view, it is a partnership contract in which there is no loss and there is a lot to be gained. There is no reason to refuse.
“yes! Thank you for your hard work. Like last time, if there is a dungeon you want, please list it and send it to me. Where it is impossible, we will immediately reply that it is impossible. “I will contact you immediately if this is not the case.”
“Me too. Even if you don’t have to maintain bleeding, you can participate as a main dealer, so please feel free to contact us.”
“You did a really good job! Let’s go!”
At the end of Kang-hoo’s words, Park Dong-jae naturally added a farewell and settled the situation.
Park Dong-jae didn’t show it, but he raised his level quite a bit in the dungeon.
In addition, I did a lot of testing to see which buffs were best suited for tests specializing in tanking.
In addition to the experience gain, a lot of practical experience has been accumulated. It was a benefit gained thanks to Ganghu.
Same with the debuff skill I got last time in Norway.
When you’re next to Kang-hu, pleasant things or beneficial situations come to you like a cake.
For that reason, Park Dong-jae felt both gratitude and responsibility.
Therefore, I did not intend to forget its importance in the future.
‘Distinguished guest.’
Yes, to Park Dong-jae, Kang-hoo is careful about everything from beginning to end, but he is grateful and grateful.
He was such a valuable guest.
* * *
According to Kanghu’s usual routine, he would have headed straight to the airport since he finished his errands in Jeju Island.
Kang-hoo respected Park Dong-jae’s routine. It’s my own after-party routine of pairing beer with a meal.
So, Kang-hoo and Dong-jae Park were at a famous hangover soup restaurant in Jeju Island.
Kanghu was not particularly interested in gastronomic life.
Even if he eats delicious food, he is a calm person whose best evaluation is usually ‘It’s okay.’
However, the hangover soup I ate with Park Dong-jae was so delicious that people said it was delicious at the first sip.
I was able to immediately understand what it felt like to constantly use a spoon and have a taste.
“How are you?”
“It’s really delicious.”
“yes? This hangover soup restaurant is truly excellent. The soup was thick and there was a lot of meat in it. “Not to mention how loud it is!”
“Good job. “Eat quickly.”
“That’s right! Ah, after a long day of work, eating soup with beer like this is the best.”
Slurp slurp! Ugh! Pow!
“…just do one thing.”
“Oh, sorry… I guess I enjoyed it too much.”
Eat, burp and fart.
Kanghu gave a reprimand to Park Dong-jae, who achieved the triple crown(?). It looks quite delicious.
By the time I had eaten half of the soup. Park Dong-jae naturally brought up another topic.
It was about a place that kept being a topic of conversation during my recent conversation with Kanghu.
“brother. “A famous guild.”
“huh.”
“I think I’ll focus on individual play for the time being.”
“Is it because of stagnant growth?”
“huh. Since everyone is at a high level, there is enough firepower for solo or 2-player play, right?”
“I guess so.”
“But out of caution, we targeted with at least four people, so it seems like the growth rate has definitely slowed down.”
“But when it comes to raising the level of the dungeon you are attacking, it seems there are limits to the composition of the dungeon you have.”
“that’s right. “There are no high-level dungeons at all, so there are some limitations.”
In the original work, it was not depicted what the Myungga guild looked like before it was attacked by the Haeyoung guild.
However, based on what I heard from Park Dong-jae, I guessed that the seeds of tragedy were conceived from this point on.
This is because if it is reorganized to focus on single action or two-person action, it will be perfect for being targeted by external forces.
The time each person enters the dungeon will be different, and information interruptions will also occur from time to time.
If that gap is exploited, no matter how few elite guilds there are, there is no answer.
He cannot be sure that the famous guild will become an ‘ally’ who will share his views in the future.
But at least I could be sure that I would never become an ‘ally’ of the Purification Guild.
Then, like Lee Hyun-seok!
It is effective to somehow help them survive and maintain the guild for a long time.
It was like that.
It’s time to spill the beans.
