【War God of Mace】

【No matter what debuff skill you are exposed to, your tenacity value will always remain above 100.】

【Mad Mathematician】

【In the case of skills affected by probability, the probability is exactly Calculate and display.】

【Strong Self-Supremacy】

【You will be in a state where you do not feel any sad emotions. However, activation is possible as needed.】

It did not take long to organize the situation and confirm the contract of the constellation that had been stolen.

Within five minutes of the start of the battle, five of the more than twenty hunters were dead.

Three of them were hunters who signed a contract with the Constellation, and Ganghu was able to make the most of their contract.

The rest were minors who had ‘tasteless’ constellations or had no contracts at all.

From Ganghu’s point of view, there was no reason to continue fighting with these guys and to lose his strength.

so.

[Veil of Artifice]

I overpowered Deleila earlier and used the Curtain of Art skill that I stole from her.

As we moved within a curtain made of opaque gray light, even enemies could not get close.

Although some hunters showed concentration as if they were trying to detect stealth.

“I can’t sense it….”

“Step back. “I don’t know where it is!”

“Get out of here, you bastards!”

Since they couldn’t pinpoint Ganghu’s location, everyone just got scared and retreated.

Even if we fought 1 to 20, we still lost. Added to this was hiding, and I didn’t even have the courage to fight.

“after.”

After coming out of the dungeon, Kang-hu took a breath, thought about what if, and looked back.

I wondered if some of the Hunters from the Sharp Wind Gang might come out after them.

But it seems like it was an overestimation, and they didn’t even show their noses.

Rather, inside the dungeon, the Sharp Wind gang was gradually moving away from the entrance.

After some time, Kang Hoo was followed by Jeon Se-hyuk and Ban Se-young.

Kang Hu looked at the two people who seemed to be friendly with each other and made an interesting expression.

The element of personal connections was not strange as it often led to unexpected relationships.

Ban Se-young, who must have received advice from Jeon Se-hyuk in advance, left a comment to Kang-hoo that he would definitely contact him next time and sat at a distance.

After confirming that Ban Se-young had fallen far enough, Jeon Se-hyuk tried his luck.

“It was an impressive battle. “I heard you have a lot of different skills.”

“I know how to do some tricks.”

“It feels like I came to this dungeon to fulfill a request. “I don’t think this is your first time soloing?”

“In fact, I have rarely moved beyond solo play until now. “I feel comfortable alone.”

Looking back, I have never been to a dungeon with someone else.

Although there have been times when we worked together outside strategically when necessary. Like Sangmi Yoon, for example?

“Originally, I thought I wanted to build friendships while leisurely having a drink. “I changed my mind.”

“How has it changed?”

I didn’t like Jeon Se-hyuk’s attention. No, it was actually good. He is a person who will have great value in the future.

It would be even more helpful if you could obtain information inside Eclipse through him.

In the end, Kang Dong-hyun is also an enemy that is certain to clash with Kang-hoo again someday.

Right now, we are strategically holding a truce, but I thought conflict was inevitable.

“Would you like to take on a request?”

“You mean a request?”

“I received a favor from an acquaintance, and for some reason I thought Kang-hoo would be quite good at it.”

“Is this a test?”

“I think I would really want to get to know a hunter who can successfully complete a request like this.”

Although he said it back, the test was correct as Kang-hu thought.

There is no reason for Kang-hoo to be tested by Jeon Se-hyuk. Because I don’t want to be his subordinate.

However, if there was a rite of passage required in the process of becoming close to him, I definitely wanted to pass it.

Jeon Se-hyuk seemed to test himself in this way before opening his heart to someone.

I didn’t want to say it was unusual.

Who can say that talented people only want to be friends with talented people?

If you don’t like it, just ignore it and don’t create a relationship.

“It didn’t seem like you were running a mercenary group.”

“that’s right. “It is not a request from a mercenary group, but rather a sharing of a request I received personally.”

“Is this a matter that has been agreed upon by the client?”

“sure. “We are best friends, so you don’t have to worry about that.”

Jeon Se-hyuk nodded.

And then what he whispered in Kanghu’s ear was different from what he expected.

Ganghu asked back in surprise.

“Are you asking me to rescue the nephew of Lee Hyeon-seok, the leader of the warlord ‘Abyss’?”

“that’s right. Nephew Suhyun. “If I were to call him by his correct name, he would be Min Soo-hyun.”

“Min Soo-hyun.”

“It’s also Hyunseok’s only bloodline.”

It was a request to rescue Lee Hyun-seok’s missing nephew.

Since he couldn’t entrust the request externally, he only asked for it from acquaintances.

This is because Lee Hyun-seok is also a person with many enemies, so making public requests can actually be poisonous.

This is the part where they may try to find the missing Min Soo-hyun, take him hostage, and exploit Lee Hyun-seok’s weakness.

“I’m not an acquaintance, am I?”

“But I think it will be heavy-lipped. Besides, I know a lot about Mr. Kang-hoo.”

Jeon Se-hyuk’s words could be heard as either a compliment or a threat depending on how you heard them.

In other words, he was confident that if this secret were to leak out, it would be entirely your fault.

“Are you planning on doing it yourself?”

“I am confident in firepower warfare, but I am not confident in maneuver warfare. “This is an impossible request for me.”

“hmm.”

Jeon Se-hyuk clearly admitted his weaknesses.

Judging by the mention of mobile warfare, it seems to be a place that requires quick movement and hiding.

“Where is Min Soo-hyun expected to be?”

“It’s not an expectation, it’s a definite place. “It’s a big area, but it’s definitely within it.”

“Where is it?”

“Gimcheon Liberation Zone.”

“You went to hell.”

Kang Hu smiled bitterly.

Gimcheon Liberation Zone.

It is usually called Gimcheon Liberation District by abbreviating one letter.

The name alone makes it seem plausible, but in reality, it is a completely lawless city.

It is a place where all kinds of criminals, including hunters who have been expelled or disciplined from unrelated mercenary guilds, gather in one place.

It was truly a crime city, but it was also an area with more people than you might think.

Rather, it is a more prosperous place than most cities, and all kinds of banned drugs and narcotics are sold there.

Furthermore, it was also an area where murders and assaults occurred without notice.

There was no problem here no matter what you did as long as you followed a few rules that were common in the liberated area.

In fact, it is a place that most hunters have no reason to visit.

However, it was a very risky place as you had to go through it if you had to save people.

‘It’s attractive that it’s a place where you can get good items cheaply.’

Because so many hunters die, item trading is active.

Most of the sources were obtained by killing, robbing, or looting somewhere.

“The compensation is at least 5 billion won. In addition, through consultation, we will provide quite a few conveniences that can be provided by Abyss.”

“For example?”

“This will be an opportunity to attack the dungeons in the northeastern part of Gyeonggi-do, which are tightly controlled by the Abyss.”

It is an attractive reward.

An attractive proposition for Ganghu, who needs to increase his skills by capturing the middle boss and main boss through dungeon raids.

Jeon Se-hyuk added.

“And since I’ll be backing you up, if we succeed in rescuing you, you’ll get a lot of gratitude from Hyunseok.”

“Even a guarantee.”

“Yes. “It’s not like finding a lost child in the neighborhood, it’s a mission that requires risking one’s life.”

“great. “I accept.”

Kanghu received the request.

I’m not going because I’m confident that I’ll be a matchless player in the liberation zone.

I had calculated that I could at least escape safely without dying.

The basis for this is the fourth perk obtained from the Dimension Stealer.

There was immediate movement to the designated location.

Although it can only be used once a day, it is still an option that is not lacking.

“How about we drink later?”

“I will. “I think we can leave right away.”

My business here is over.

Moreover, it was not that far from Pohang to Gimcheon.

Of course, you have to provide the mined jadeite and receive a commission fee.

I was planning to contact Lee Ye-rin and ask her to come down to Pohang in person.

Since I visited her every time and accommodated her convenience, there was no problem in calling her once.

“I will leave it up to you. “Hyeonseok has already sent some hunters from the abyss, but they all seem to be dead.”

“It’s a little ironic that you would send me to a place like that.”

“Wouldn’t it be better if you thought you believed that much? haha.”

Kang-hu thought that Min Soo-hyun was missing the timing to escape rather than that he was dead inside.

Since he is said to be a skilled magic hunter, he must have the strength to protect himself.

However, the fact that you could just go in and not come out was probably because it was hiding somewhere.

* * *

After receiving the call, Lee Ye-rin immediately came down to Pohang and the settlement was made quickly.

After completing all requests for mining stone and selling unnecessary items.

With profits of 7 billion won added, a total of 17.6 billion won in ammunition was secured.

It is an amount that is sufficient to stir up markets within the liberated area.

Unless you want to buy grade 2 or higher.

A brief meeting with Yerin Lee.

But something important was discussed.

“First of all, I’m looking into Mr. Park Min-seong. “It is true that I was involved in a missing persons request.”

“Please let me know if you have any further news after that.”

“yes. And one more thing. “There was a request for information about Seon-gyu from Mr. Jang Si-hwan.”

“hmm?”

“To be precise, they sent us the CCTV footage of Mr. Seongyu and asked if we knew anything about this person.”

“It looks like they are investigating Tae-soo Gong’s case. “Why are you so interested in something that has nothing to do with you?”

Although it was said casually, it was something that bothered me.

This is because there is no relationship between Tae-soo Gong and the Jeong-hwa guild.

It’s not like he has any connections with Jang Si-hwan.

Nevertheless, the fact that Jang Si-hwan is looking into it directly means that he is interested in the person who attacked Prince Gong.

Since the person was Kang Hu himself, the attention could not have been welcomed.

Kanghu asked.

“What is the answer?”

“Of course I knew he didn’t know, so I cut him. “I am an independent entity and not Jang Si-hwan’s subordinate.”

“I trust you will do it wisely.”

I gave him a quick glance.

Even if you ask her to speak, she won’t speak.

For the mercenary leader, trust is everything.

No one will trust the mercenaries if they easily sell the information of clients who are actively trading.

In this world too, rumors spread quickly.

So once I was filmed like that, I couldn’t handle it. Being a public enemy is basic.

‘Then let’s take a picture around here.’

Ganghu checked the flow of the surrounding area, which was moderately deserted, and prepared to save the location.

【This place is a safe area. Would you like to designate an immediate return point to that location?】

If Min Soo-hyun is rescued, this will be the point where he will immediately escape the liberation zone.

It was definitely a safe place from someone’s pursuit, as it was immediately far away from the Liberation Zone of Gimcheon.

Preparations for escape are complete.

Now that we have finished securing live ammunition, all that remains is to go to the Liberation Zone of Gimcheon.
