The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All - Chapter 301
Episode 301: Liberation (1)
“Puh-ha-ha!”
Jeon Se-hyuk burst into laughter.
As expected, it was true that Kang Hu was causing a lot of trouble inside the camp. And that too alone.
– I have a lot of power that I can’t do anything about. An official from the southern camp was also tied up here.
“I tried to ignore him, but Mr. Shin Kang-hoo wouldn’t let me go. “You must be too strong to rush at me.”
– that’s right. Everyone is at a loss as to what to do due to extreme social distancing.
“I think we know for sure the internal situation by then. Daeyong, see you soon. Until then, hide well.”
– Okay, bro. I held on while waiting for this day. I’m sick of disguising myself as Eclipse idiots.
“See you soon.”
– check.
After finishing the phone call with Dae-yong Kim, Jeon Se-hyuk laughed while looking at the virtual battle screen displayed on his tablet PC.
As originally planned, more than 30% of the current force should be concentrated at the entrance to the camp.
In other words, from the beginning, the Allied forces were calculating an attack and defense at the main gate. It was judged as a constant.
However, a variable arose as Kang Hu effectively disrupted the camp forces in the middle.
It was a huge boon for the Allied Forces. In other words, this is bad news for Eclipse.
“From Cheongju to here… it would be too late even if we left as soon as we heard the news. And it’s not even possible.”
“A report just came in. It’s still a fierce battle. “It looks like the remaining members of Black will resist until the end.”
“Anyway, if you surrender to Eclipse, the ending of an organ sale or a concentration camp is obvious. “It would be better to die than to live like that.”
The satisfaction that could not be hidden was evident on the face of Jeon Se-hyuk, who was making a satisfied expression.
It’s a painful thing to say, but of course, thanks to Kang-hoo’s presence, he gained a strategic advantage.
Less precious Allied forces were lost.
Although it cannot be quantified, Jeon Se-hyuk believed that one person, Kang Hu, had replaced the lives of dozens or hundreds of people.
It was not a leap, but a logical decision based on the situation.
In case a battle breaks out at the main gate.
This is because in pre-battle simulations, the Allied forces expected losses of at least 100 people.
The minimum value was that much, and the maximum value was more than three times that.
And the current loss is reportedly around 20 people.
“Brother, let’s speed up.”
“That’s right. Kang Dong-hyun bastard! I need to see with my own eyes what kind of facial expression he is making. “It’s a shame.”
“Tsk tsk. that’s right.”
“Cheongju Liberation Zone? Yes, tell them to eat as much as they can. If the magic stone mine was robbed, wouldn’t that be the worst kind of behavior? “Clark!”
Jeon Se-hyuk laughed, shaking his shoulders. Because his antipathy towards Kang Dong-hyun has a deep history.
Now that Kang-hu has properly prepared the table, it is time to eat it in a fighting manner.
“I’m going all the way to Suyong-dong at the current speed! “There is no retreat or detour, so don’t even think about looking back, just rush forward!”
“yes!”
Under the direction of Jeon Se-hyeok, the armed forces began to enter the Cheongmyeong camp.
It was the beginning of a full-scale camp battle.
* * *
Meanwhile.
Ganghu looked down at the corpses of the guards scattered all around him.
Since he was a level 2 or 3 guard without a constellation, it was very easy for Ganghu to deal with him.
From the victim’s point of view, it was like ‘a fly’s life’, but from the attacker’s point of view, it was none of his business.
【This is how you see the price of the power you have diligently cultivated! As expected, it suits the quality of the contractor I chose!】
Among the constellations, it was the wilderness strategist who first gave voice to Ganghu’s activities.
A constellation that always believes in Kanghu’s performance and never doubts the reason for any choice he makes.
Ganghu liked the wilderness strategist who raised the mood among the dreary and cold constellations.
Without a constellation like her, listening to the voices of the constellations would have been like a dry fair.
【Overwhelming! Awesome!】
Overwhelming.
A word meaning to suppress an opponent with superior strength or ability. It was also a word that perfectly suited the current Kang-hoo.
【You have filled the place where your tragedy began with glory. It’s great. I will ask for blessings directly on my contractor.】
‘Oh.’
Kang-hoo’s eyes twitched at his reaction, which was not like that of a normal dimension stealer.
Kang-hu’s feelings were just as new as hers.
When he first escaped from the Cheongmyeong concentration camp, he found it difficult to even kill a single person.
Now that I think about it, after fighting several insignificant battles.
I still vividly remember vomiting blood because I didn’t have the stamina to withstand my congenital mana hypersensitivity.
At the time, it felt like a mountain that the prison camp guards could not carelessly control… but now they are insignificant lives.
at that time.
Crash, clank, clank. Thump thump thump.
A heavily armed special task force from the Cheongmyeong camp was seen arriving at the scene in a hurry.
Even though it’s been some time since the battle started, it looks like they’ve been drinking here too, seeing as they’ve arrived only now.
Since the head of the camp had been consumed with alcohol, it was completely normal for subordinates to lose discipline.
“joy.”
Kanghu snorted and fell back.
I had no intention of engaging in a head-to-head battle with the riot squad that arrived in droves.
The more time passes, the more disadvantageous it becomes.
There is no need to shorten the waiting time. Attacking first is rather brazen.
“Poisonous bastard…”
The guards who were watching Kang-hu burst out in anger.
I was so frustrated with the picture that I couldn’t do this or that, but there was no clear solution.
The only solution was to quickly eliminate Ganghu, but there was no hunter with the skills to do so.
The one Hunter, Jo Hwan-seong, had already had his head cut off and had become a ghost wandering the Nine Heavens.
“Hey xpal!”
In the end, the executive couldn’t stand it any longer and charged at Ganghu.
Rather than letting time drag on like this, I wanted to somehow sort out the situation… It was a wonderful intention.
“You can!”
“Let’s kill that vicious assassin first! We will also do our best!”
The guards cheered.
Among them, there were quite a few soulless cheerers, but in any case, the intention was the same: wishing for the victory of the executives.
In fact, the guards were able to take advantage of that gap and move forward. Power supply is an urgent matter.
However, the guards, who knew that the situation there was already worsening, did not take active action.
It was a picture of him holding on to his life and waiting for his closest enemy, Ganghu, to be eliminated.
And what if Ganghu is eliminated?
It was a very cowardly thought that the executives who grasped the situation later would see a picture that would be appropriately left out.
night sky.
pouring rain.
And even the camp lights shine directly on the scene where Kang-hu and the executives will encounter each other.
It was a scene so desolate that it felt like a scene from a movie, but at the same time beautiful…
Pushuuut!
After seeing the silhouettes of two people intertwined, only one person had blood splashing.
The sight became a tragedy and despair for all the guards. The executive died in vain at the hands of Kang Hu.
“What is this…?”
“To die in vain like this?”
“What the hell is that guy? Shin Kang-hoo, what on earth is that bastard? They say he was a level 10 hunter who escaped the camp a few months ago! Does this make sense?”
The guards froze.
This was the same for the mobile team that came to support the scene, so no one could step forward first.
This is because the executive who just died was not as talented as Jo Hwan-seong, but he was well over level 200.
However, he died without being able to stand one chance against Ganghu. I was completely caught off guard.
There was silence from both the guards and the riot squad who watched the scene where an officer lost his life in a single blow.
In this battlefield with so many people, no more words were heard.
All I could hear was the sound of rain pouring ceaselessly and hitting the dirt ground. A deep silence came.
and.
Slowly, fear and fear began to spread among them like an infectious disease.
The image of the executive who lost his life fleetingly in a place where everyone’s attention was focused was deeply ingrained in my mind.
There was no law preventing him from becoming the protagonist of that tragedy. No, the guards who have already become protagonists are lying dead all over the place.
It was not a situation that could be endured with a vague sense of duty or loyalty to the organization. Because the outcome is equal with dog death.
Right then.
“Ugh! I don’t fucking know! Ahhh!”
One of the guards took off his prison uniform and hat and started running toward the magic stone mine.
This is because by using the side road there, it is possible to escape from the camp through a route unknown to the outside world.
“okay! “It’s better than falling down!”
“Jump out, you bastard! If you stay here, Shin Kang-hu will kill you! What are you doing? Don’t follow me quickly!”
In an instant, the guards, overcome with fear, began to run away.
“….”
Ganghu felt a sense of discomfort.
There is still only one person, but if a few more people are added, the number could easily be a hundred.
But they were completely selfish.
I didn’t think of a situation where several people could die and be overcome if all forces were combined at once.
I guess their honest feelings are that they don’t want to become a ‘cow’ sacrificed for the greater good.
Seeing that the enemies were no longer worth pursuing, Kang Hu also showed no intention of pursuing them.
Instead, pretend to walk forward one or two steps whenever you see people looking back.
“Aaaah! come! “It’s coming!”
“Just look ahead and run, man!”
Those who were scared spread their anxiety creatively.
In their minds, Kang-hu had already become a pursuer who was persistently chasing after them.
Slurp! chuck!
Soon, Ganghu put the dagger in its scabbard and looked around.
I planned to look at the constellations stolen from the dead executives later, and wanted to see the battle situation first.
“hmm. “There’s no need to go to the front door.”
Seeing that the flag of the Black Lion of the Cheongan mercenary group was already waving, it seemed that the front was also cleared.
In that case, there is no need to play house on the organized battlefield.
“Shall we go to Suyong-dong?”
It seemed better to go to the detention center where the prisoners would still be trapped and unable to escape.
There is no reason to take responsibility for their future, but I wanted to give them a chance to choose freedom.
It was like a complete liberation gift to my past self. It had symbolic meaning.
After a while.
Kang-hoo, who arrived from a nearby detention center, killed the guard who was trying to escape from the scene and took the key.
Although it is the 21st century, the camp is still managing its security using old-fashioned means.
This was possible because of Kang Dong-hyun’s bullshit philosophy that even an automated management system was a luxury for prisoners.
The person who enjoys the benefits of the system is the prison guard.
Anyway, the place where Kang-hoo, who obtained the key, stood in front of the acceptance building that meant a lot to him.
Right in front of building 18.
It is the place where the life-threatening escape began and the gates of hell where Shin Kang-hu suffered for many years in the original work.
A past where I wanted to die and a present where I am so happy just to be alive!
Cheoeok.
Ganghu stood at the border.
“Is there anyone outside?”
“please! Please save me!”
And inside the tightly locked iron door, numerous ‘past selves’ were asking for help.
The life of the inmate, who was extremely helpless, has not changed from past to present.
