The Genius Assassin Who Takes it All Chapter 242

Episode 242: Norway (3)

In the larger scheme of things, the famous guild can also be seen as an ally.

‘I think I need to get closer to the famous guild. So it’s also a guild with nothing bad about it.’

In my own way, my calculations become faster.

After all, there are ‘no’ forces that are opposed to the Purification Guild. It’s just not revealed.

“Is there a way to get closer to the famous guild? Dong-jae, I think it would be good if you could give me your leg.”

“Do you know what’s scary?”

“What?”

“I mean, I’ve been wanting it there for a long time. “I was cutting it on purpose because I was afraid my brother would feel burdened.”

“I didn’t know that.”

“I said I wouldn’t tell you first unless you wanted me to. But I think it’s okay to say it now.”

Is it because the Myeongga guild senses that Ganghu might dislike the Jeonghwa guild? Probably not to that extent.

However, if you look at the fact that even though he has made quite a name for himself, he has not yet joined the purification guild… you can probably guess it.

“Then make room for me.”

“For now, let me just say that my brother wants to become friends with the famous guild. “You don’t have any ill feelings toward the Purification Guild, do you?”

Yes. There are so many.

However, there is no need to tell Park Dong-jae what his relationship with Jang Si-hwan will be like.

He neither confirmed nor denied Park Dong-jae’s question, but passed it off with an awkward smile. Park Dong-jae did not ask any more questions.

– Passengers. We will be landing soon, so please fasten your seat belts. Take your seat….

An announcement message is soon heard. It looks like landing is just around the corner.

Oslo Airport was in front of me.

* * *

Kang-hoo and Dong-jae Park came out after completing the immigration process and followed the local male hunter who came to meet them.

When I asked him, he said he came to meet Oh Yu-jin at his request. It looks like he is quite close with Oh Yu-jin.

Since they were only taking us from Oslo Airport to Oslo Cathedral anyway, not much was exchanged.

So, I was looking out the window with Park Dong-jae and talking about a different landscape from Korea.

This is because I could see at a glance a large group of hunters training.

It was on a hill not far from the airport.

“I think all the hunters training on the hill over there are members of the Norwegian Public Security Agency.”

“huh. “The epaulettes are just like the epaulettes of the Public Safety Agency.”

“I heard that, unlike Korea, Norway has a well-established order centered around the National Security Agency.”

“that’s right. They say that joining the Public Security Agency is the most honorable thing for a hunter to do here. In fact, I receive a lot of preferential treatment.”

“You are completely different from us.”

“I know. “Bitterly.”

Of course, there were not many cases like in Norway where Hunter’s government agency took the lead.

Norway is a rather special case. The default values of most countries were similar to Korea.

In the United States, there is a public security office, but because it is operated separately by each state, cooperation is not good.

As a result, even though an integrated security agency was established at the federal level, cooperation did not work well because it was not binding.

In Japan, the purpose of the National Security Agency has completely changed. It is not about mediating order in the hunter world, but protecting civilians.

So even though fierce battles were taking place between guilds in various places and bloody battles were being repeated, they did not intervene at all.

Instead, hunters who carelessly messed with civilians were punished with all their might.

This is what the Korean Public Security Agency pursues as well.

At least within the purification guild’s sphere of influence, the power of the Public Safety Agency was being exercised well.

We arrived at Oslo Cathedral before we knew it.

At the scene, I saw that there were indeed thirteen dungeons, and their entrances were arranged in the shape of a cross.

As promised in advance, Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae headed to the entrance of the dungeon numbered 13.

Perhaps because foreign hunters often came, no one showed any particular interest in the two.

Everyone seemed to be busy with their own work. First of all, no one recognized who the two were.

So it was comfortable.

Around the time Park Dong-jae briefly went to a nearby market for final maintenance.

A new message was displayed to Kanghu. It was news about something I had forgotten for a while.

【congratulations. The set waiting time has expired and the activation of the new option has ended.】

‘Ah, when I was stabbed by a distorted awakening in my corrupted beliefs before. I said a new option would be activated.’

The memories came back.

I saw the message then too.

There was no guarantee as to when the waiting time would end, so I forgot about it at some point while waiting.

Perhaps because I had completely forgotten about it, the sudden message felt more like a gift than an embarrassment.

【Grave – You can upgrade this dagger to level 1 by using 3 red stones.】

The content of the new option was to raise the dagger by one level by sacrificing 3 red stones.

Currently, Ganghu has a total of two red stones. Adding one more makes the calculation possible.

‘Do we need to find a way to add one more stone? Although it is very difficult to obtain…’

It is not possible to obtain the red stone with certainty.

I know of only one place where a lot of rubble stones are piled up, but it is realistically impossible to attack.

This is because it is inside the subspace that Jang Si-hwan deals with. It’s like the rice cake of a painting.

To have a high chance of getting it from a dungeon, you have to go to England.

‘You can use the British Spitfire Guild. The problem is probability. ‘Because it’s not 100%.’

It’s not that there are no ways, but it doesn’t seem like a problem that needs to be pursued in a hurry right now.

Since the Red Stone can be dropped out of nowhere, it can be found as many times as you want in this dungeon. Although it is an extremely low probability.

Anyway, after checking the newly added options, Ganghu recognized the need for one stone and finished preparations.

As soon as Park Dong-jae arrives, it’s time to start.

* * *

Running instinct.

Concentrate your mind.

Strategic control.

It was a buff that was applied to Ganghu as soon as he entered the dungeon. This is Park Dong-jae’s buff skill that I experienced before.

[Blessing of the Earth Mother]

[Skill evasion rate increases slightly. If you remain in the state of not being hit for a certain period of time, the protection that allows guaranteed evasion is activated.】

“Oh!”

“Is this your first time?”

“I just gained another skill.”

“It’s a buff skill that will be very effective against my brother. how is it?”

“I need to do some tests.”

Ganghu made an interesting expression after checking the buff that had not been there before.

The slight increase in skill evasion rate is not the key to this buff. It’s literally a slight increase.

The key point is that when special conditions are met, protection that allows for ‘confirmed evasion’ is activated.

This means that no matter how powerful a skill comes, you can 100% avoid it.

I definitely felt like my combat power had increased by two or three times compared to usual since I had no buffs.

It seems correct to say that although there are hunters who have never looked for a buffer, there are no hunters who only look for it once.

Meanwhile, Ganghu spent a long time without taking damage while wearing the Earth Mother Goddess’ protection buff.

Soon, a translucent energy was created surrounding the body, and definite evasion was activated.

Just then, a monster called the Mad Catapulter appeared at the front.

The name was translated into Korean, but it was simple to think of as a goblin that throws rocks.

Ganghu deliberately stood in front of the guy. Then, with an angry expression on his face, the guy threw a rock with all his might at Ganghu.

Next moment.

Whick!

The rock, which should have hit Kang-hu in the normal path, missed.

It looked like a picture of people pushing each other, as if magnets of the same pole suddenly met.

“Performance is solid.”

Kang-hoo looked at Park Dong-jae and gave him a thumbs up.

A skill like this would be of great use to Ganghu. The skill also seems to miss far with ease.

“My brother is the type of person who earns one turn and then draws ten. When I got this buff skill, the first thing that came to mind was my brother. “How is it?”

“This is really awesome.”

“Once you evade confirmation, it takes some time to become active again. Still, it’s good enough.”

“Let’s keep using it. “I need to think more about how to use it strategically.”

“call.”

From then on, Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae’s full-fledged attack began.

After checking out the new buff skills, my body started to itch. I couldn’t stand it.

* * *

Afterwards, the initial strategy proceeded without any particular variables.

Dungeon 13 is largely divided into areas 1 to 3.

The section corresponding to Zone 1 was not difficult. Since there were no multiple battles in the first place, there was nothing complicated.

Thanks to this, Kanghu was able to raise his level to 243. There were also many benefits in terms of experience points.

When we almost reached the end of District 1. As the battle entered the clean-up phase, Ganghu started crying.

“You, Dongjae. The buff got better. “I think the skill level work went well.”

“that’s right. I focused on my skill level and raised it a lot. “I must have felt it a lot since I recently climbed two stairs.”

“Besides, the use of the station buff earlier was really good.”

“Are you okay?”

“It couldn’t have been better.”

Ganghu nodded.

Reverse buff.

This refers to the act of intentionally applying a buff to a monster.

If you listen without thinking, you might wonder why they do good things to monsters.

But the reality is different.

What if an unexpected acceleration buff is suddenly applied to a monster that is running at a speed that is just right for it?

The steps get messed up.

You’re lucky if you don’t fall, but if you’re unlucky, you might twist your foot and fall, breaking your head or face.

And he could have missed the timing of his intended attack or could have been targeted.

This was the case with the monster who lost his life to Ganghu earlier.

Because of the sudden acceleration, my body was thrown forward and I was stabbed by the dagger without any time to avoid Ganghu’s attack.

Even the damage inflicted by the dagger was fatal.

Park Dong-jae has no direct combat abilities.

However, if you can use the buff creatively, you are more efficient than most combat personnel.

So, Kang-hoo’s feeling was that Park Dong-jae’s joining was not like ‘1+1=2’, but like ‘1+1=2.5’.

“By the way, Kanghu hyung.”

“huh?”

“I’m asking this because I’m really curious. How on earth do you keep adding skills?”

“That’s a trade secret.”

There are some things that even Dongjae Park can’t tell you about. It’s a story about the constellations and one’s own birth.

“Putting everything else aside, the fact that every skill my brother uses causes bleeding seems to be beyond the morale level…”

Thanks to the Soma Constellation of Blood, all of Ganghu’s skill attacks are now causing bleeding effects.

The duration itself was not long, but the bleeding itself was enough to sound like a fraud.

Moreover, Park Dong-jae, who had many opportunities to observe the battlefield situation from the buffer’s perspective, would have seen it more clearly.

at that time.

Confirm that there are no more monsters around.

Dongjae Park, who was confident that the attack on District 1 was almost complete, handed out the water bottle he had prepared in advance to Kanghu.

It was a heart-warming sight of each other taking care of each other, just as Kang-hoo had given them water bottles on the plane earlier.

but.

“brother. By the way, how much do you know about Jang Si-hwan and Chae Gwan-hyung of the Jeonghwa Guild?”

Park Dong-jae’s question, which followed naturally, was not heartwarming. It was a quite sensitive question for Kang-hoo.
