Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell Chapter 40

#40

040

Jeong Jin-cheol thought for a moment that the flame had spoken, but then he snorted and shook his head.

‘That can’t be possible.’

Since he was such a guy that suddenly popped out, I ended up making an absurd mistake.

That’s just someone hiding in the dark lighting a fire using Auror techniques.

‘It’s clear that the firepower is quite useful. ‘It’s that guy from earlier.’

The unidentified first-place runner who swept away Frost Locke on the second floor earlier by flapping his dragon wings.

Tuk-

Jeong Jin-cheol let go of Shin Cho-young’s right arm, which he had tried to squeeze.

‘It just worked out.’

That guy whose name I didn’t know was as eye-catching as Shin Cho-young.

I was half giving up because I didn’t see a chance to show my bitterness, but I was just grateful that he approached me first.

“Am I the one who made this place look like this? that’s right. “I did that.”

Jeong Jin-cheol, with a cruel sneer on his face, spread his arms wide and approached the flame.

As if to say, if you want to try something, give it a try.

“But what? What should I do-”

That moment.

Swish!

“uh?”

A thick forearm seemed to jump out of the darkness and snatch him up.

It happened so quickly that there was no time to resist.

The helplessness of being led by the other person’s hand is terrifying.

Wow!

“Keuok?!”

Suddenly, a fist the size of a pot lid flew out and hit him in the face.

The nasal bone, which was fine, was distorted and three or four teeth were pulled out in an instant.

The moment Jeong Jin-cheol was about to fall backwards, bursting with blood.

chin-

The outstretched arm grabbed Jeong Jin-cheol by the collar and threw him against the nearest wall.

bang-!

“Wow!”

The sharp impact on Jeong Jin-cheol’s back squeezed Jeong Jin-cheol’s lungs and caused fresh blood to pour out of his mouth.

Jump and jump. Hwareuk-

Before I could stand up from the ground, the flames slowly approached me along with the sound of slow footsteps.

Only then could Jeong Jin-cheol be seen.

Daesung’s eyes shine as red as blood between his two distorted eyes like a vicious evil spirit.

“Hi…!”

Daesung’s face, which Jeong Jin-cheol saw, already looked like a ghost rather than a human.

chuck-

A tree branch engulfed in flames was aimed in front of Jeong Jin-cheol’s nose.

“I don’t know what kind of manipulation you’ve done, but stop it.”

Eyes that were even more gloomy than the darkness of the field glared at Jeong Jin-cheol.

Jeong Jin-cheol was dumbfounded.

‘Why why are you holding a tree branch here…?’

What can you do with a burning tree branch?

I couldn’t tell if he was threatening me or trying to make me laugh.

‘Who is this bastard making fun of?’

Jeong Jin-cheol, who was already full of resentment, accepted the latter.

Sigh-!

He impulsively reached out and grabbed a branch. I was planning on crushing it as a show of pride.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!!!!

Grumble-!

A hot sensation, as if it would burn his flesh, traveled up his palm and shook his brain nerves.

It was an extended hand gesture taking into account the fact that the tree branches were wrapped in fire.

But this wasn’t usually hot. It was a pain as if my hand had been submerged in magma.

“Ugh-! “Kwaaaaaak-!!”

He slammed his burning hand on the floor, but it had no intention of going out.

‘I’d rather just just do it!’

I came up with a plan to just burn the guy’s head with my own hands if the fire couldn’t be extinguished.

Jeong Jin-cheol turned to the side to avoid the tree branch aimed in front of him and then bounced like a spring towards Daesung.

“Fuck you, you fucking bastard!”

Jeong Jin-cheol stretched out his hand, which was engulfed in flames, and performed the Donggwi portrait.

Suddenly!

“huh?”

However, in the next moment, what Jeong Jin-cheol caught in his sight was not Daesung, who fell for his own technique and had his head set on fire.

It was his own arm that was torn apart and flying through the air.

Hwareuk-

Through the blood gushing out like dancing in the dark.

The flame of fire burned brightly.

And Jeong Jin-cheol’s scream continued.

“Kwaaaaaaak-!!”

“5 seconds.”

Daesung spoke cruelly as Jeong Jin-cheol was rolling around on the floor, clutching his messily severed right arm.

“If you don’t retract your trick within 5 seconds, it will be your left arm next time.”

“Shit! Shit, really! “You bloodless, tearless bastard!”

The moment when Jeong Jin-cheol cried bitterly and became indignant.

Crack!

Something amazing happened.

Isn’t the amputated right arm being regenerated?

It took less than two seconds for the bones to become covered with muscle fibers and new skin.

This was thanks to the ampoule mixed with the wood golem’s genes that regenerate the skin.

‘I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!’

The remaining number of times the Wood Golem can be activated is nineteen.

In other words, even if a limb is cut off, he still has 19 chances.

What is there to be afraid of?

“Aaaah!!”

Jeong Jin-cheol immediately activated the effect of the next ampoule.

Orc Champion.

Among the ampoules mixed with the blood and genes of countless monsters, this one can truly be called an extract.

The plan was to unleash the power of the Orc Champion, a boss monster that could only be defeated by a group of A-class players, at this moment.

Quad deuk-!

Unusual steam rose from Jeong Jin-cheol’s body, and soon his body began to swell at once.

Sigh-!

“100 million?!”

However, the second strike of the Fire Flower Greatsword pierced his back.

Deep!

It clawed at his five organs and six parts and even pierced his chest.

“What the hell…?!”

Jeong Jin-cheol’s body, which had grown explosively in an instant, suddenly shrunk like a deflated balloon.

“It’s fortunate that he can regenerate his body. “He was wondering how to control his strength.”

Wow!

At the same time that Daeseong pulled the sword out of the guy’s body, blood poured out from Jeong Jincheol’s mouth.

Heo heo heo heo-

Jeong Jin-cheol, who had no strength left to scream, looked up with his face covered in tears and snot.

“What kind of tree branch is this… You, you fucking bastard… At least it’s time for the damn person to transform…”

“5 4 3….”

The death count continued.

Jeong Jin-cheol realized that he had touched a monster that he should not have touched.

Cluck, cluck, cluck-

The torn internal organs and pierced skin finished regenerating in an instant.

‘This crazy bastard… isn’t someone you can fight for and find a solution to.’

The 5-second count is now just before shouting zero.

Pak-!

Jeong Jin-cheol ran towards somewhere as if he was crawling on all fours.

This time, Daesung, who was planning to cut out his eyeballs, turned his head indifferently.

There

“Hey, hey, I know you’re a bastard without blood or tears…”

Jeong Jin-cheol was lightly stepping on Shin Cho-yeong’s face as he fell to the floor with one of his feet.

With his leg strength, Shin Cho-young’s face would be brutally crushed the moment he put even the slightest force on the soles of his feet.

“Heo-eok-even if you pretend to be a ghost without blood or tears on the outside, you can’t turn a blind eye when a woman is dying right in front of you, right? Get away right away. “Otherwise, I’ll hit this bitch in the face-”

“What do I have to do with the woman under your feet right now?”

“…what?”

“Five seconds have passed.”

[The first special skill of ‘Scorching’ mode is activated.]

[Special Skill: < Flame Bullet >]

Hwareuk pububeong-!

A bullet fired from the darkness hit Jeong Jin-cheol right between the eyes.

“Huh?”

Jeong Jin-cheol fell backwards, his entire face exploding.

Jeopuk-

Daesung slowly approached him again this time.

The safety of the nameless woman was none of his business.

“5….”

Next time.

Where should I burn him to make him obedient?

Daesung, lost in thought, leisurely counted the numbers.

“4….”

“Ughhh-!”

As the count mercilessly decreased, Jeong Jin-cheol hit his stride without even looking back.

‘If I keep this up, that crazy bastard will kill me!’

This is not a phantom who knows how to show a gap and show mercy.

Then there is only one way to survive that monster.

‘I have to kill him…!’

There was nothing else but the number.

A head-on breakthrough is impossible.

My intuition was speaking. Avoid all-out war with that monster at all costs.

‘Hide and attack from behind!’

When a fair fight is not possible, fighting cowardly is enough.

Jeong Jin-cheol gained a sufficient distance from the monster following behind him and hid himself in the darkness.

Fortunately, the tree branch that the monster was holding was on fire.

All you have to do is use that fire as an indicator and launch a surprise attack without him knowing.

‘No matter how bright that bastard’s eyes are, if he decides to hide and attack, there’s nothing we can do about it!’

Jeong Jin-cheol, who was ambushed through the thick darkness, held his breath.

Jeopuk-

Daesung’s footsteps were heard from a little distance away.

Hwareuk-

A flame flutters like a firefly and cuts through the darkness.

Jeong Jin-cheol, who confirmed the direction the flame was moving, carefully calculated the distance and caught up with Daesung.

‘now!’

grasp-!

Jeong Jin-cheol’s new model, who was 100% sure that Daesung did not notice, leapt at the speed of a bullet.

The moment when a beast-like hand was about to penetrate the back of Daesung’s head.

Suddenly!

The red horizontal line engraved in the air cut off Jeong Jin-cheol’s arm without fail.

“Aaaah-!”

Jeong Jin-cheol, who had already had his second right arm cut off, screamed.

Immediately before the right arm, cut off like a lizard’s tail, could be regenerated.

Suddenly!

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…!”

The branch that swung again, or rather the sword of Yeophwa, even cut off Jeong Jin-cheol’s remaining left arm.

The count continued.

“5 4 3….”

“Please help me… I was wrong. Please help me…”

“2 1….”

Suddenly! Pak-!

His right arm, which had finished regenerating, was cut off, and his left arm, which was just beginning to grow bones, was crushed.

Daesung’s face was drenched with thick blood splashing out.

Jeong Jin-cheol, whose leg had not yet been cut off, quickly ran away and hid in the darkness.

Hwareuk Paba Bang-!

“Ugh…!”

The < flame bullet > fired from the fireball flew like a guided missile and exploded on Jeong Jin-cheol’s body.

Jeong Jin-cheol ran away and ran away, with parts of his body exploding and engulfing him in burning pain.

but.

Suddenly! Hwareuk pububeong-!

The flaming sword was swung mercilessly at every turn.

‘How on earth…!’

It’s as if they are seeing clearly where this person will run away.

No matter how widely you expand your sense of energy, it would be impossible to identify the other person so precisely in this darkness.

“No matter how much you run away, you’re in the palm of my hand.”

A cold voice rang out from somewhere in the darkness.

“As long as there is a ‘brand’ on your head, you cannot run away from me.”

‘Stigma?’

Jeong Jin-cheol, who heard the word stigma, hurriedly touched his forehead.

Of course there was nothing there.

The brand on his head is visible only to Daesung’s eyes, who activated the < Eye of Fortune >.

So, for Daesung, it is a very simple task.

Suddenly! Hwareuk-!

All you have to do is follow the stigma and swing your sword at it.

After the blood-stained hide and seek game was repeated three or four times.

Clap!

“…Kill you, you crazy bastard. “Stop harassing me and just kill me….”

Jeong Jin-cheol, whose limbs were cut off, was lying on the floor, crying and pleading.

His severed limbs no longer grew new ones.

This is because all twenty replays have been used up.

Daesung looked down at Jeong Jin-cheol, who had collapsed in a rag-like state, with emotionless eyes.

“no. I won’t kill you. “Until you retract your tricks.”

“…Crazy Heo-eok, you crazy bastard… Even after looking at the way I am right now… Heo-eok- Saying something that makes sense to a guy who is going to die anyway… Heo-eok- Says something that makes sense….”

It was Jeong Jin-cheol’s struggle until the last moment.

He’s going to die anyway, so he insists that he will never please that guy.

Daesung’s answer that followed broke even that strong stubbornness.

“I can’t leave you to die.”

“…what what?”

That moment.

The flames engulfed in the Flame Great Sword began to take on a green color.

[The special skill of ‘Seonghwa’ mode is activated.]

[Special Skill: < Healing >]

Hwareuk Saaagh-

Green flames swirled around Jeong Jin-cheol’s body, which looked like a crushed Lego piece.

“Uh huh?”

His amputated limbs were regenerated in the blink of an eye.

While Jeong Jin-cheol, who had tasted the miracle of the Holy Fire, was dumbfounded, Daesung said indifferently.

“It’s a skill that can only be used once every ten days, but I used it generously for you.”

“Uh, uh…. Uh…?”

“Let’s start again from the beginning.”

“Wait a minute… just a minute…”

“5 4 3….”

A nightmare where you can’t die comfortably.

Slurp-

Yellow liquid spread down the lower body of Jeong Jin-cheol, who was incontinent.

***

‘It’s almost time for the security department to restore the camera… I guess Jincheol is still having fun, right?’

Same time.

Lee Seok-woo, who saw the monitor on the third floor with the power turned black, checked his watch and smiled in satisfaction.

‘As expected, mixing Pulse Hedgehog factors into the ampoule was not a wrong decision.’

Pulse hedgehog.

It is classified as ‘named’ among grade 3 dangerous species, and the reason is not different.

EMP.

Its specialty was disabling all digital equipment around it by emitting powerful electromagnetic pulses.

For hunters equipped with mostly digitally driven equipment, the attack was bound to be like a bolt from the blue.

And the ampoule that Jeong Jin-cheol received was mixed with the Pulse Hedgehog factor.

In other words, Jeong Jin-cheol can also use the EMP emission ability.

With this, he would have been able to blind the surveillance cameras for a moment, and in that time, he would have been able to trample on Shin Cho-young to his heart’s content.

‘Even if the camera is restored soon, there is no evidence that Jin-cheol did it… In the end, I only feel sorry for Shin Cho-young.’

A sadistic smile was drawn on Seok-Woo Lee’s lips as he imagined the moment when she would be revealed to the world.

But then.

“…huh?”

The corners of Lee Seok-woo’s mouth, which had been smirking, turned into a straight line.

It was the exact same timing as the unresponsive monitor being restored.

“uh!”

“The 3rd floor camera has been restored!”

“These bastards from the association did their job quickly… Huh? What is that.”

Roaring Roaring-

And the audience who witnessed the scene on the monitor began to stir.

< Wait! Oh no. wait for me! There is no way I can change this! >

Because the screams full of desperation were being transmitted to the audience through the microphone built into the camera.

Each audience member who heard the scream was left speechless.

< Once an EMP has been triggered, it cannot be canceled! >

Because the person who screamed was Jeong Jin-cheol.

That wasn’t all.

A man was standing still in front of Jeong Jin-cheol, who was sitting on the floor with a face filled with fear.

Holding a tree branch engulfed in flames.

Everyone knows that face.

Because I was candidate number 104, whom they were so enthusiastic about just now.

Number 104 opened his mouth and asked.

< You did it. >

< It's true that I did it... but I can't undo it. >

The moment those words rang out.

The excitement in the audience grew louder.

“…the camera went out.”

“Jeong Jin-cheol did it?”

Unless you were an idiot, you couldn’t have known what that short conversation meant.

As a result, it became clear that Jeong Jin-cheol was the one who broke the internal camera and closed the third floor gate.

< As time goes by, the organizers will come up with some kind of plan! You just have to wait until then! >

< How much. >

< I don’t know that either. >

< .... >

< Please. Please, please, just watch this once! I'm sorry that I jumped at you first without even knowing how to use fractions! So please spare your life! >

Jeong Jin-cheol on the screen corrected his posture and then began to pray, putting his palms together.

Begging with a face like a puppy getting caught in the rain.

‘That bastard…!’

Lee Seok-woo, who was watching the obscene act on the big screen, was on the verge of falling down while holding the back of his neck.

< Do you want me to live? >

< It's good that he didn't lose his strength the way he did, and I'm glad that he finished his work that way! It’s a win-win! Let’s go our separate ways! >

< Finishing what you’re doing means... killing that woman from before? >

< Choi Shin Cho-young, that bitch Jo Ji-gi, I made an appointment with the leader of our clan... >

That bastard?

Seokwoo Lee lifted his buttocks without realizing it.

“Are you scolding Shin Cho-young?”

“What does that mean again?”

“Ugh-! “That, that… that…!”

The audience who saw the camera on Shin Cho-young first was horrified.

The rest of the audience, who were only focused on Jeong Jin-cheol, heard the sound and looked at the screen.

“You… you devilish bastards.”

Quite a few people expressed their anger.

The screen they were watching was showing an unfiltered image of Shin Cho-young, who had passed out after being so seriously injured that it was difficult to open her eyes and see.

This made it clear.

Jeong Jin-cheol ‘intentionally’ damaged the camera and blocked the third floor gate.

Even now, it has been clearly revealed that the intention was murder.

Anyone watching that scene could not help but feel nauseated.

***

“Do you know that?”

When Jeong Jin-cheol was trembling and not daring to make eye contact, Daesung spoke quietly.

“That EMP thing doesn’t last as long as I thought.”

While Jeong Jin-cheol was praying for mercy, he was also wondering what Daesung wanted to say.

“I saw a glimpse of the camera light flashing earlier.”

That moment.

Jeong Jin-cheol felt his heart shrink.

‘Then the words that came out of my mouth earlier…’

The moment I realized that fact, I couldn’t keep banging my head on the ground like an idiot any longer.

“Now wait a minute-”

At that time, Jeong Jin-cheol, whose complexion was pale, involuntarily raised his face.

Hung-

Suddenly!

The parabolic curved sword separated Jeong Jin-cheol’s head and body.

“You said with your own mouth earlier that you attacked me first. Good job.”

Tuk.

Daesung rolled his eyes and kicked Jeong Jin-cheol’s head, who was dying.

“According to our investigation, ‘justifiable defense’ was established in this case.”

***

It is important to make hasty judgments before the clear context is revealed.

but.

Wow-!!

Most people in the audience praised number 104’s actions.

Jeong Jin-cheol’s execution.

This was a reaction that could have occurred because I heard firsthand that this guy intentionally disrupted other test takers and, more importantly, made Shin Cho-young cry.

‘Jeong Jin-cheol’s care will help the baby!’

It was only natural that Lee Seok-woo was not among those cheering.

It was revealed to the world that Jeong Jin-cheol attacked Shin Cho-young at his own instigation.

Lee Seok-woo quickly left the scene with a face that looked like he had chewed shit.

And one more.

Besides Lee Seok-woo, there was someone else who felt unbearable anger.

At the same time, a sadness that cannot be explained in any words.

‘Choyoung!’

It was Hwang Jun-young.

How would a teacher feel when he saw that his student, who had decided to help her for the rest of her life, had fainted with a huge hole in her body?

‘Lee Seok-woo, you bastard!’

That feeling cannot be explained in any words.

***

Today, hunters are desperately needed to protect citizens and the country from monsters.

The licensing exam to select new hunters who would carry the present and future had to be more thorough than any other exam in the world.

It may not be perfectly fair, but it may be unreasonably difficult.

At the very least, incidents and accidents that go against the minimum hunter spirit and humanity should not occur.

“My face is getting hot. “This is the hunter’s shame.”

Inside the dark chairman’s office.

A middle-aged man with a rather rough expression clicked his tongue while looking at the monitor.

Park Jeong-ho, president of the Korean Hunter Association KHA.

He was frowning at the actions of the < Hongma > clan, beyond Jeong Jin-cheol’s recently revealed criminal activities.

There was a woman standing behind Park Jeong-ho who felt just as uncomfortable as him.

She was KHA’s Secretary General Lee Ha-won.

She asked Park Jeong-ho.

“What about the exam, Chairman?”

“What should I do? “If such a disaster has occurred, it will be impossible to continue.”

“I think so too.”

“The exam ends here. “As soon as the third floor gate opens again, let the supervisor and security guards in.”

“I will do that. Well then… how should we select successful candidates?”

“hmm….”

At that question, Park Jeong-ho stroked his beard and fell into contemplation.

Soon he quickly came to a conclusion.

“Just because there is a disruption in the test process, the results cannot be invalidated.”

Up to a hundred split screens were being broadcast on the huge main monitor installed in the chairman’s office.

The struggle of the awakened people unfolds within it.

Park Jeong-ho summarized it clearly as he gazed at the sight that could easily be described as spectacular.

“Let’s revise the passing cutoff line. So far, the first 20 people to clear the 2nd floor instead of the 3rd floor.”

“Is Jeong Jin-cheol excluded from that?”

“That’s what you say, man.”
