The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All Chapter 185

Episode 185: The Corrupt Truth (2)

* * *

It was funny to see the Hayabusa guild members chasing after him in panic.

On the one hand, there was an eerie aspect to it as I thought they had carefully planned it out.

The further I got from the entrance, the more corpses I saw piled up here and there.

Some seemed to have even succeeded in escaping the dangerous area at the entrance.

However, that joy was short-lived, and he died when the back of his head was pierced not farther away than expected.

Kanghu again checked the location designated for ‘teleportation’.

It’s right in front of the entrance.

In other words, if you use teleportation, the entrance and exit will appear immediately and you can leave right away.

As long as you don’t get caught or die here, there’s no need to worry about escaping. All you have to do is not look away.

Taang! Taang!

Meanwhile, the loud sound of magic bullets being fired struck Ganghu’s ears.

However, even though I heard gunfire, I did not avoid it because my intuition was not activated.

If intuition is not activated, it means that the aim is not accurate. So there was no need to worry.

‘It’s a scam.’

okay. It’s a scam.

The Constellation with this ability offered him a unilateral contract that required him to bow his head.

When I think back, it was a touching experience. I guess I was lucky to have met a wilderness strategist.

‘It’s not fun to see a picture of someone being easily chased.’

Even as Kang-hu lost the chase, he planned the game according to his idea.

[Collapse]

The skill I actively used was collapse. This is a skill I gained from a dungeon I went to with Sangmi Yoon a while ago.

Kuddeuk!

When I used the collapse skill, a hole immediately formed as if the ground had been dug with a transparent excavator.

The scale was large enough to bury dozens of adults, so it was not something that could be ignored.

‘An assassin who digs a pit. ‘You cross the line too hard.’

I laughed out loud.

A scene in which a person is running while holding a dagger and creating a hole behind him. It’s a picture you can’t get used to.

Right then.

…!

Intuition was triggered.

【Cute!】

Ganghu created slime and simultaneously moved to the right using the quick evasion skill.

Pow!

Then, both eyes of the slime exposed to the sniping turned into an X and disappeared from the spot like a balloon popping.

There are a total of nine snipers chasing him.

They were outnumbered because they were all carrying guns, but that did not mean they were outnumbered.

The snipers who went through the correct aiming process were not difficult for Ganghu.

But there were variables.

One of them guessed it with his eyes without any separate aiming process and immediately pulled the trigger.

Usually, it is called ‘no-jum’, borrowing a game-style expression, but in the original, the expression ‘eye aim’ was used.

It is also a method that only hunters who are skilled in sniping can do. Because it’s really hard to match.

He was a difficult enemy even from Kang-hoo’s point of view because the moment his intuition was triggered, he had already pulled the trigger.

So, Ganghu decided to use Shadow Walk to further disturb the opponent’s vision.

No matter how good you are at dodging, you cannot avoid magic bullets indefinitely.

And magic bullets are the best means of killing as they can result in instant death with just one mistake.

“see. “How tenacious you all are.”

Ganghu bit his lip and increased his moving speed.

This is a dungeon where you come to get set items. I had no intention of giving up now.

* * *

Same time.

‘Coincidences are truly amazing.’

Her eyes were bright as she chased after Kang-hu.

The reason I thought of the word coincidence was because I never thought I would meet this man here.

The other day, when Kang-hoo came to Jeongmoon Pharmaceutical’s first research center to deliver the Red Key.

It was the same sniper who held the sniping point inside the research center and kept Jeungseonrak in check.

The reason she was here was simple. This was because he was hired as a mercenary by the Hayabusa Guild.

He is rumored to be a very skilled sniper, so he ended up here.

Korea Japan. It was definitely a coincidence that we encountered each other again in that vast land.

There was nothing to see about his skills.

At that time, he cut off two of Jeung Seon-rak’s fingers just by supporting one sniping attack.

As she knew well what kind of hunter Jeung Seon-rak was, she had no reason to doubt Kang-hu’s skills.

So, it wasn’t strange that the snipers next to him were making a series of missed shots.

This is a natural result.

Even at that time, Ganghu easily avoided the intensive sniping of multinational mercenaries.

It’s as if we have an early warning system. Thanks to this, only the snipers were made fun of.

‘Even though I’m specialized in quick movement, the distance doesn’t narrow.’

Strength goes into the body.

I thought he was good at not only sniping but also chasing, but he was an exception against Kang-hoo.

It may be absurd to discuss pursuit of a nimble assassin.

However, the important thing is that Kang-hoo continues to avoid sniping while being exposed to it.

In other words, they were not just running away, but were moving by dodging left and right with snipers behind them.

Still, I can’t chase after it.

If it had been an honest straight-line movement competition, Ganghu would have been lost over the horizon a long time ago.

“Let’s just give up.”

“Hey, it’s getting further away, fuck!”

“It looks like shit…”

A curse comes out from behind.

Since they were only skilled in handling magic bullets, they were bad at long-term chases.

Everyone was breathing heavily and had lost the will to chase and stopped in their tracks.

The chase started with nine people, but now it’s down to just her. I guess you thought this was enough.

He calculated that since there was only one entrance and exit anyway, he would eventually meet Kang-hu.

‘It’s not that I want to kill him, but I’m curious what kind of person he is.’

As she sped up again, her thoughts were a little different from those of the snipers who had chased after Kang-hu earlier.

They say that when coincidence happens twice, it becomes inevitable.

Even back then, I was curious about the true identity of that interesting hunter. What abilities does he have and what does he do as a hunter?

Of course, it would be difficult to communicate properly in a world where it is difficult to even know each other’s names.

Still, I wanted to mix things up. If I had known this would happen, I would have had a conversation in the lab at that time.

At that time, I thought of myself as mystical and all, and ended up blocking the opportunity to make contact.

Psssssut.

She soon left the group and diligently chased after Kang Hu.

“Hey hey! “Why are you chasing me?”

“Stop it, man!”

“it’s okay. That X is a mercenary anyway. Let it do whatever it wants. Losing is also fate.”

“Anyway, Toldki…”

Several hunters tried to stop her, but they were not active.

After all, he’s a mercenary. Their common thought was that there was no need to take great care of them.

* * *

When Kang-hoo looked back at the point where the distance was neither narrowing nor getting further away.

I witnessed an unexpected situation.

The sniper chasing behind was already aware of the fact that only the hunter who was aiming with his eyes was left.

However, since I didn’t know when I would be sniped at, I just focused on widening the distance by constantly disturbing my vision.

But when I looked back, at some point the opponent was no longer aiming the magic bullet gun.

He turned it around and carried it on his back. There seemed to be no separate weapon in hand, nor was there any type of pistol.

Moreover, the fact that he was holding both hands up made it look like he had no intention of fighting at all.

“….”

So Kang Hu also stopped.

At the same time, the other person also stopped and signaled through hand gestures that he wanted to talk.

‘It’s true that if we close the distance between each other, the number of targets on my side will increase.’

Even if I had a close conversation with the other person, it didn’t seem to matter much.

Because assassins have an overwhelming advantage over gunners at close range.

Ganghu stood still and the other person got closer and closer.

Although they were both masked, the closer they got, the more they could tell that the other person was a woman.

Not only did she have thick double eyelids, but the hair sticking out from behind the hat was also quite long.

When the distance narrowed to a certain extent, she spoke first.

“you. Jeongmun First Research Institute?”

“hmm?”

At first I wondered what that meant.

I thought I heard wrong. Because it wasn’t a situation where the topic of the Jeongmun Research Institute suddenly came up.

When Kang-hu tilted his head, she explained further.

“I shot you back then to support you.”

“I guess so.”

Kang Hu’s reaction was grave.

Of course there was a memory. At that time, during the battle with Jeungseonrak, I received help from sniping.

However, that alone does not mean that we were present at the scene.

“We communicated with each other through our eyes. You wanted to strategically attract Jeungseonrak, right? “I’m going to counterattack.”

“hmm.”

“At that time, I recognized your thoughts and set the tempo by sniping. However, since I went there as a mercenary, I didn’t want to reveal my identity by saying hello.”

Ganghu nodded.

It didn’t really matter whether she was the sniper in the lab at the time or not.

It’s true that I felt grateful, but that’s it.

But apart from that, I thought her skills were good.

The skills I experienced in the dungeon today were also not average.

There was no problem because there was a natural way to respond, otherwise, somewhere in the body would have been pierced long ago.

“At that time, when I saw him cutting off Jeung Seon-rak’s finger, I thought his skills were amazing. “It’s the same today.”

“If it’s a compliment, I appreciate it.”

“The world is such a small place, isn’t it?”

“I know. “I’m not sure if you were that person, but if so, I wanted to say thank you.”

He spoke plainly.

It was also about saying now what I couldn’t say then. If you are not a party, it doesn’t matter.

“Can you contact me if I need a useful gunner in the future? “I really like skilled assassins.”

At that moment, I can see a blush fluttering around the corners of my eyes through my mask.

What is this girl? Even though he didn’t say anything particularly embarrassing, he seemed really embarrassed.

It may not be the direction that suits the atmosphere at all, but individual tastes are different. You have to show respect.

Just as Kang-hoo prefers Dong-jae Park, a buffer, it is no wonder that she, a sniper, prefers assassins.

The more the assassin catches the enemy’s attention, the more opportunities the sniper will have to target.

However, that’s only when we’re working together, and if we’re enemies, it’s a completely different story.

She wrote something on a piece of paper she took out from her pocket with a pen she happened to have.

Then he crumpled it slightly and threw it to Kanghu.

Looking at the contents, it was the Huntergram security account address. It is the same form as the one I received from Takashi earlier.

This account is shared only with specific people and is never exposed to general accounts.

“The name is Ayane. Please contact me. “I really want to try it with a skilled assassin.”

“Say the object correctly. “What do you want to do?”

Kang-hoo came all the way here and slapped Ayane, who was blushing awkwardly.
