Episode 84 Bezumiye (1)
* * *
On the day of the appointment, I met Kim Soo-kyung and members of his mercenary group at the agreed upon location.
All of the mercenaries except Kim Soo-kyung were wearing masks, and Kang-hu was the same.
Kim Soo-kyung’s face was widely sold to the outside world in the first place, so she didn’t see any reason to hide it.
It definitely had the smell of a mercenary group that had been through many hardships.
In Kang-hu’s opinion, the mercenaries were really well-armed, and more than anything, he could feel the smell of blood that did not go away.
When you live immersed in a battlefield stained with blood, the smell of blood will not go away, as if it has been absorbed into your skin.
Just as a person who has lived in a humid semi-basement house for a long time feels a unique dampness.
As soon as Kim Soo-kyung saw Kang-hoo, he immediately greeted him warmly.
“Nice to meet you. “This is Kim Soo-kyung.”
“This is Jeong Seon-gyu.”
“Would you like to skip greeting other mercenaries?”
“no. “Anyway, we are people who will be together for the same purpose, so we should exchange greetings.”
Kang-hoo hates useless pretense, but he thought the situation was a little different this time.
They are people who have gathered together to target a common target: Jeon Jong-du.
There are members of Kim Soo-kyung’s mercenary group, and there are also mercenaries recruited from outside, like himself.
Although our backgrounds and environments were different, we were colleagues at least for this one time.
Ganghu planned to thoroughly utilize these ‘colleagues’. It will be the same for them too.
While utilizing each other, the goal is to obtain Jeon Jong-du in the end.
Following Kim Soo-kyung’s guidance, I greeted each mercenary in turn.
They introduced themselves using the pseudonyms written on their masks, and Kang Hu memorized each name one by one.
We also went through a process to determine who had outstanding talent in what field. The fields were really diverse.
next.
The briefing on Jeon Jong-doo has begun.
He is a berserker-type hunter whose level is 350. He was a piece of human trash who had already been accused of many crimes.
There was also video evidence.
There have been many videos showing a well-known domestic promising hunter being sold to Russia.
In addition, it was confirmed that human trafficking of ordinary women was also taking place.
It was a dirty and ugly act that would be worthy of being described as nuclear waste-level trash.
Kang Hu did not view this request as a convenient battle between good and evil.
I thought of it as a composition of a bright future and a dark future.
Although Kang Hu-ra is not particularly interested in realizing justice, there was nothing good about losing a talented person like that.
It is a loss both domestically and from the perspective of Hunter as a whole, a very big loss.
On the one hand.
This time, there was also the purpose of collaborating with Kim Soo-kyung’s mercenary group and building up personal connections with Kim Soo-kyung.
Kim Soo-kyung is a person who will exert great influence in the eastern part of Gangwon-do in the future.
Moreover, he was also a person who basically did not tolerate criminal activities by guilds or mercenary groups.
In other words, from a long-term perspective, there was a high possibility of establishing a confrontation with the Purification Guild.
It is not known to the world because the Jeonghwa Guild’s evil deeds are more than just one or two.
If Kim Soo-kyung finds out even a little bit about that fact, he will never have any good feelings about the Jeonghwa Guild.
In any case, the briefing on Jeon Jong-du was done in detail.
It was said that the place that would become the battlefield was an abandoned factory that Jeon Jong-du’s group often used as a secret meeting place.
And although Kim Soo-kyung is in charge of directing the overall situation, Kang-hoo is given a lot of discretion.
Since they were external mercenaries, they did not seem to require excessive obedience or cooperation.
Of course, Kang Hu did not intend to ignore Kim Soo-kyung’s words or regard cooperation with the mercenary group as meaningless.
However, if strategically necessary and if it was worth the risk, I planned to work alone.
Actually, it was comfortable.
I liked the picture of a team in the big picture, but ultimately acting as one person in the small picture.
Unless you are a colleague who really gets along well, being next to you is usually a nuisance.
1 hour later.
After completing the final maintenance, the group began moving to the abandoned factory.
Just then it started to rain and the sun was setting so the entire road was dark.
Kanghu went first, using his night vision to secure his field of vision as usual.
Before leaving, I was checking to see if there were any guards or guards, as I had volunteered to have Kim Soo-kyung clear the road in advance.
‘also.’
There were guys standing guard around the area.
From the outside, there was nothing to see due to rusty containers and messy wooden boxes.
However, when using the constellation search ability along with the flow of mana, two hidden beings were detected.
It is true that he was hiding himself quite skillfully, but since he was caught anyway, the future was clear.
Sigh.
Kang-hoo, who went into hiding by moving laterally, even used Mu-yeong to approach them without making a sound.
And the two sentries holding their breath in the darkness, watching out for the appearance of an uninvited guest.
Phew! Phew!
Overpowered in an instant.
The dagger inserted into the back of the neck at once caused the two hunters to die instantly without even being able to scream.
He had used the decapitation skill generously just in case, so he didn’t have the talent to withstand the blow.
Perhaps the people involved did not even realize that they had died.
When I open my eyes, it must be a picture of the afterlife just around the corner. In some ways, it is a blessed death. Because he died without pain.
In the end, the sentry died without any time to radio or send a warning signal, and did not accomplish any of his mission.
Thanks to Kang-hoo taking the lead, Team 1, led by Kim Soo-kyung, had a smooth entryway.
On the other hand, Team 2 had a crisis where they almost got discovered once.
So, I received a call saying they would take some time and come up with a plan to bypass the side road of the abandoned factory.
Although the words were lengthy, it ultimately meant that entry was delayed. That means it’s twisted.
On the other hand, Ganghu silently suppressed the six guards one by one.
Furthermore, a border barrier that had been secretly buried in the ground was also confirmed.
This barrier has no attack function, but has a flare effect that alerts the enemy of intrusion.
However, thanks to Kang-hoo’s accurate understanding of the location of the barrier, no one from Team 1 was able to step on the barrier.
‘I expected it, but my senses are better than I thought. Above all, it seems that there are many abilities that can be utilized.’
Kim Soo-kyung saw with her own eyes Kang-hoo’s skillful response, movement, and development of the shortest route, and understood why Lee Ye-rin confidently recommended him.
As Yerin Lee said, I thought that level was not an important factor at all.
Rather, the fact that Kanghu’s level was still not even 100 felt scary.
If you are still at a level that you admire, it will be even greater if you grow further from here.
‘It’s safe to say it’s an assassin’s textbook. ‘We specialize in all processes of secret killing.’
As I felt from our first meeting, Kang Hu was a person who had experienced all kinds of dogfights.
The number of assassins seen on the battlefield was so great that it could fill several dump trucks.
However, among the many assassins I have seen, Kang Hu’s movements were the best.
It was neat.
The word ‘neat’ to an assassin hunter is the same as saying ‘powerful’ to a hunter who uses swords and magic.
It is one of the best compliments that can be given to the profession.
Kim Soo-kyung wanted to give Kang-hoo that description without hesitation. It is a skill that is proven on the battlefield.
Team 1 was just approaching the slope-shaped side road that was the quickest way to get to the abandoned factory.
Fuuuuuuu!
An explosion occurred on the other side.
It seemed like Team 2 had an accident despite Team 1’s perfect approach.
“It’s an intruder!”
“It’s north! North!”
Why?!
With the warning siren, Osho mercenaries were seen rushing out of the abandoned factory.
Although Jeon Jong-doo was nowhere to be seen.
In any case, the meaning of the secret intrusion has already disappeared due to Team 2’s accident. Now it’s a battle of speed.
Kim Soo-kyung shouted.
“Pounce! Find Jeon Jong-du! Kill everyone who stands in your way! Go simple!”
Before we knew it, the mercenaries began to run toward the abandoned factory, wading through the thick rain.
Kang-hu looked at the side door that was visible only after taking a slight detour, rather than the entrance that was visible directly down the slope.
Usually, the main gate, that is, the large gate, not only has quite a lot of security facilities installed.
There is a risk that the enemy’s firepower may also be concentrated.
Of course, Kim Soo-kyung did not advance the mercenaries without knowing this.
This is because many mercenaries with specialized defense abilities were deployed to the front. I have the confidence to endure.
However, since Kang Hu’s goal from the beginning was to defeat Jeon Jong-du, he did not want to focus his efforts on a wasteful engagement.
Kim Soo-kyung also allowed individual responsibility and independent action based on judgment, so there was nothing to worry about.
Contrary to expectations, it would be much easier to enter through the side door.
Quang!
The moment the sight of the entire side door blowing off unfolded, Kang-hu sensed that his plan had gone a little awry.
“Is Bezumiye coming from here?”
Both eyebrows furrowed.
Bezumiye.
It is a word that means ‘madness’ in Russian. That means he came over from Russia.
It was a giant hunter weapon.
To be precise, he is a hunter, but he does not have the ability to think and only kills mechanically.
It was also much more powerful than the tracker used in Eclipse.
That’s because from the beginning, he was constantly injected with drugs from the hunter training stage to increase his size and height.
This is because it arms you with fairly efficient items. It is not a concept that can be used and thrown away like a tracker.
Bezumiye’s characteristic is that if it targets one enemy, it will attack until it dies.
As long as you don’t lose your breath, you will aim for your target until the end.
To change this, only Bezumiye’s ‘owner’ can change the direction with a command.
Although I did not confirm it directly, it seemed obvious that the owner of this Bezumiye was Jeon Jong-du.
“Look what happened.”
Ganghu lowered his posture.
I grabbed the bloodstream with all my strength.
Bezumiye, who had the appearance of Frankenstein, was uncomfortable to even meet.
“It won’t be easy anyway.”
My body gained strength.
Compared to himself, Bezumiye was in the exact opposite position, so much so that he could be said to be polar opposite.
Bezumiye is a giant, assault type, and a brute force type. I’m close to the type that does everything with my body.
On the other hand, Ganghu is characterized by hit-and-run mobility, agile evasion, and stylishness.
It is a fight between those who try to suppress it and those who avoid it and cleverly counterattack.
When Ganghu glanced back, another mercenary, who had seen that he had encountered Bezumiye, moved as if to come for support.
However, Kim Soo-kyung, who was quick-witted, read the inner thoughts in Kang-hoo’s eyes and stopped the mercenary.
“Leave that to Seongyu. “If you go, the plan you have set will be disrupted.”
‘You have good sense.’
Although he couldn’t speak, Kang-hoo made a circle by curling his index finger and thumb towards Kim Soo-kyung.
It’s a one-on-one situation.
The next step is to break through Bezumiye.
Ganghu was confident that there was a reason why Bezumiye was placed at the side door rather than the main door.
Maybe there’s something you shouldn’t approach or a place you want to hide.
Now it’s time to face the giant Russian human wall.
You have to be careful because even one hit can lead to a goal. certainly.
