The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All Chapter 137

Episode 137: Versatility (3)

* * *

“Shall we settle the bill and take a rest? “You have priority, so of course you will choose this.”

In the process of settling the loot, what Ma Jin-ho gave to Kang-hu was an orange magic stone with a market value of 10 billion won.

This is because the magic stones that Edax dropped were either orange or yellow.

It looks like things are going well.

Of course, it was a heartbreaking situation for the Guru Guild, which gave up priority.

Kang-hoo took home 10 billion won alone, and the other nine got to share the 1 billion won worth of magic stones.

“thank you.”

“you’re welcome. “This is the first time I’ve seen someone maintain their stamina so well even after hunting Edax.”

“What was it like before?”

“First, remove all the campers from the Pischis section. “From there, we come here with accumulated fatigue.”

“Is it easy one more time?”

“It’s so out of shape that I just grab the Edax. Instead, after that, you have to take a 12-hour break.”

Majinho smiled as he looked at his teammates resting behind him.

Everyone was taking a break, but they seemed to be enjoying the break itself by joking and playing around.

In the past, everyone would have been in rags and busy lying down on the floor to rest.

Ganghu’s greatest satisfaction was with the passive skill Tailwind’s Whisper that he stole from Edax.

Being able to permanently increase your stats without wearing items is a significant advantage.

Later on, items are worn on all areas.

From then on, raising additional stats with items becomes very difficult.

From that point on, the stats you have steadily invested in by leveling up and these permanent stats shine.

Majinho asked.

“Do you often appear as mercenaries in raids like this?”

“no. “This is my first time participating as a bleeding dealer.”

“…yes?”

Majinho’s eyes widened.

This is because Kang-hu’s movements were too clean from start to finish to be considered a first performance.

“I often play solo or with a small group of people, so there’s a lot of pressure to not have to deal with monsters one-on-one.”

“ah. “You seem to prefer minimizing the number of people to attack.”

“If you share too much experience, it becomes tasteless.”

“Oh, I admit that.”

Majinho laughed.

In any case, it was said that this was the first time they had participated with the main purpose of maintaining bleeding.

No matter which way I thought about it, cognitive dissonance occurred. Because all of Ganghu’s movements were so neat.

“The perception of assassins hasn’t been good these days. Shin Kang-hoo completely changed it.”

“It’s hard to find a good assassin. “Just as it is difficult to find a healer with sense.”

“Iknow, right. “Everyone was skeptical, but now I think they’ll probably become Shin Kang-hoo’s fans.”

When Majinho glanced back, everyone was pointing at Kanghu and talking about something.

Judging by the fact that he smiled and waved his hand vigorously at Kang-hoo, it was very likely that it was a compliment.

“The raid damage is so good that it goes beyond imagination, so there’s a thrill in beating monsters.”

“We have gathered only the best members of our guild. “We also call it Group 1 Team.”

“Gru is team 1….”

“When the guild master and assistant guild master come, I will be immediately kicked out to team 2. haha.”

As Majinho said, the two people are the first and second in the Guru Guild’s hierarchy and are also biological sisters.

Like Majinho, he was a swordsman and main tank who knew how to use a sword.

If he is the type of person who takes center stage on the battlefield with his large body and strong defense.

The two belonged to the group that held monsters like a swamp based on brilliant skill use and collaboration.

In addition to provocation, a variety of skills are used to greatly reduce the mobility of monster groups.

For example, by creating a slowdown zone or applying a debuff that reduces movement ability on monsters.

Since there is no exact word to refer to them, they are usually called ‘debuffer tankers’.

‘I’d like to meet you.’

Hunters with unusual forms or abilities are always objects of curiosity.

In the original work, the two sisters were only briefly mentioned as the owners of the Guru Guild.

This time, I desperately wanted to see it with my own eyes. Debuffer tank. It seemed quite fun.

That time.

Quang!

Among the brothers who were drinking together, the younger one hit the table where the bottle and glass had been placed.

It was fortunate that it was a wooden table made of reinforced wood, or it would have broken in half right away.

“Why are you so excited?”

“Aren’t you angry? Take a look at our Eclipse internal hierarchy organized this time. “Is this normal?”

“…Fuck you.”

My brother, who was trying his best to ignore the content, cursed.

The names of the two brothers, who are three years apart from each other, are Jinho Choi and Jinsoo Choi. He was one of the executives at Eclipse.

Of course, executives are divided into levels, but unfortunately, the two were classified as lower-level executives.

Their status can be guessed just by the fact that they are in the same position as dungeon license management.

My older brother Choi Jin-ho muttered while looking at the hierarchy chart.

“Why is there a backlog in our personnel transfers even though Jin Hyo-yeong, who was above us, is dead?…” “I wonder

if we can at least give them the position of tracker team management or tracker team 5 or 6 leader.”

The two were completely dissatisfied.

In the past, even when Cha So-hee died, there was a change of position throughout the executives. Of course, it was a step up.

But even then, Brother Choi Jin-ho was not subject to a change of position.

Rather, executives who were below them used Cha So-hee’s death as an opportunity to move up.

In other words, he surpassed his brother’s position and actually experienced a two-step rise in rank.

I tolerated it back then.

I think the captain, Kang Dong-hyun, must have had an idea in mind. But the same thing happened this time too.

Hunters who had been used as lower-level executives were now promoted to higher levels.

“Fuck you. Does it take two people at a time to get a seat? “This is too much.”

“Should I just go to the captain and attack him? “We contributed something to Eclipse!”

“it’s okay. Have you seen the guy who went in front of Captain Kang Dong-hyeon, spoke bitterly, and survived?”

“Then how long do I have to be treated poorly like this? “Brother, we also have a family of our own.”

The ‘family’ that Choi Jin-soo spoke of was not a family, but a term referring to the subordinates under the two brothers.

Anyway, there are subordinates who call them older brothers and follow them, and this is the only way to gain no prestige.

After a moment of silence.

Choi Jin-ho, biting his lip, stood up as if he had made up his mind.

“Jinsu.”

“uh?”

“I guess it makes sense for us to become bounty hunters.”

“What bounty?”

“These days, all the captain’s attention is on that damn bastard, Shin Kang-hoo. If you kill him, you will receive a bounty, items, and even a promotion. “It’s the Trinity.”

“brother. He’s not an easy guy. Cha So-hee is dead and Jin Hyo-young is also dead. “They were stronger than us.”

“You idiot. Those bitches moved alone because they felt proud. “If we all move, we will only have 20 people.”

“Hmm….”

“If we use the right amount of bullet canisters and utilize our specialty, it’s okay to say we’re Shin Gangfu.”

“Let’s throw some kids and snipe them with magic bullets?”

“yes. No matter how stubborn an assassin is, how good can it be? “One headshot is all it takes.”

“okay. There is no business in page count. “The timing just needs to be done once.”

Jinho Choi and Jinsoo Choi were both Gunners. To be exact, he was a sniper who specialized in long-distance sniping like Ban Se-young.

“okay. It’s right for us to find a way to survive. “You can’t just wait for it to fall every time.”

“Get the kids ready. “It will be enough to just hire one or two new people to manage the dungeon.”

“There will be some sacrifices, but will it be okay?”

“X-Shin. “If you care about your subordinates like that and we are eliminated, then we will die too.”

“…Damn it.”

“Let’s get ready. “Let’s gather information starting from places where he often appears.”

So the two brothers moved.

The kill list that Kang Dong-hyun posted on the Eclipse official website clearly had a ripple effect.

Brother Choi Jin-ho was the first to take action, but they were not the only ones thinking this way.

For the Eclipse Hunter who wants to win the captain’s favor, the person to be killed is truly attractive prey.

* * *

Perhaps it was because the middle boss monster section had progressed without any problems.

Afterwards, even the main boss monster section was conquered as a one-side game without any incident.

The strategy went so well that I didn’t even have to use the stamina magic potion I had packed.

Contrary to what Majinho said every time he used up all the potions he brought, he never opened the potion bag this time.

The level was already 113.

If he had only done the Bleeding Shuttle, his contribution would have been low and he would have had little fun in terms of experience points…

Ganghu actively dealt damage throughout the attack and got the same results.

If this trend continues and you catch the boss monster, you can expect to reach level 120 if you do well.

This means you can reach level 10 or higher in high-level dungeons.

Of course, not everyone can do this.

If you just suck your fingers in a high-level dungeon, you won’t be able to gain even a single speck of experience.

Since everything is a product of effort, nothing is gained through unearned income.

“Ha… Now I have to face the most boring and difficult boss monster. “Gloria.”

Majinho pointed to the boss monster in front.

Kang-hoo had been watching since a while ago, and Ma Jin-ho had a reason to sigh.

First of all, Gloria was a giant female boss monster about 5 meters tall.

The unique thing about Gloria is that she floats in the air with her entire eye covered by an eyepatch.

According to the preliminary briefing conducted before entering the dungeon, it has its own story.

Did you say that Gloria dug out her own eyes because she no longer wanted to see the corrupt world with her eyes?

In any case, Gloria, who gained the ability to see without looking, began to see the world in a different way.

She was, unusually, a boss monster with no attack ability at all.

Let’s find a similar case.

It resembles the boss monster Regant that Kanghu defeated with Jeong Yu-ri in the past.

At that time, Legant was destroyed as soon as Ganghu touched it, and from then on, the dungeon began to collapse.

Although Legant had no attack ability, collapsing the dungeon was a type of attack.

Gloria was a little different.

She could be easily killed if she got close, but the problem was the protection area surrounding her.

What a problem it was, if you approached it wrongly, you could get caught in the instant death zone and die.

You don’t just take damage or get injured, you literally die instantly.

The instant death area within the protection area changes frequently, threatening approaching hunters.

Furthermore, instant death-type attacks would come in irregular patterns from the outskirts of the area.

Ma Jin-ho called it a ‘killer ray’ and said that just grazing it would turn the body into a handful of ash.

Therefore, it is said that the attack on Gloria was always carried out in the form of consistently pouring out damage from a long distance.

It’s a job that’s close to labor that requires you to pour in your skills for a really long time because it doesn’t even maintain bleeding.

So everyone was eating high-calorie meals to replenish their stamina in preparation for the long-term battle.

However, Kang Hoo-man had been concentrating his attention on Gloria and the surroundings since earlier.

Without even realizing that Majinho was speaking next to him.

Majinho said.

“What are you thinking? You don’t need to keep this guy bleeding. “No, I can’t.”

Then Kanghu asked.

“If you just break through the instant death space… Gloria’s own tenacity is really weak, right?”

At that moment, Majinho thought.

I wonder if this ‘crazy’ assassin came up with an unexpected and unique strategy.

I couldn’t help but naturally have high expectations because Kanghu can do more than anything he thinks about.
