Episode 9 Overpower (2)
We didn’t just leisurely talk about the best timing.
Grumble!
A skill emerged from Kim Mok-hyeon’s palm and flew straight out.
‘True purple flame.’
This is the level 1 basic skill of a black magic type hunter.
In terms of strength, it is a leap forward.
Currently, since the magic was struck vertically from the top of the railing, it was impossible to dodge backwards or to the side.
“Huh!”
Kanghu threw his body forward while holding on to the railing.
Paang!
Kang Hu, who entered the building immediately, narrowly avoided Kim Mok-hyeon’s first attack.
The stairs that Kang-hu entered was the 4th floor.
The stairs where Kim Mok-hyeon is located are on the 5th floor.
A strange confrontation took place with concrete walls as the ceiling and floor.
“Who sent you here? uh? Are you telling me to kill me and get something? “What did you say, you bastard?”
“I came to get my shoes.”
“You mean Lee Ye-rin?”
“To me, you are a client.”
For Kang-hu, Kim Mok-hyeon’s chat wasn’t bad.
This was because my head was hurting from using leaps in succession.
“That bitch Yerin! They sent blind kids like you and killed several people in response to a request that paid money? “Why don’t you tell me?”
“uh. “They say it will be the last request.”
“Fuhaha! Looks like you’ve been pierced quite a bit! Well, you’re probably being treated like the grim reaper by the mercenaries! Fuha!”
“······.”
I thought that Kim Mok-hyeon was a very talkative character.
Usually, in original works, guys who make fun of people like this from the snout often have short lives…
I wanted to make him adapt to that fate as well.
Kim Mok-hyeon’s words are not new.
Hunters basically don’t trust each other very well anyway.
Even when Lee Ye-rin gave me an attractive request, I thought that there would be a difficult issue underlying it.
Unless she’s a fool, there’s no way she’ll give you a request like she’s the enemy.
Anyway, now that we have confirmed that Kim Mok-hyeon is here as expected, it is time to see what happens next.
“Kim Mok-hyeon.”
“what?”
“I’d like to give you a good option.”
“Why are you suddenly teasing your tongue again?”
“I’ll give you my life if you give me all the items you have.”
“What are you talking about, you idiot? Even with the item settings I’m wearing now, it’s not like a level 100 wizard. “Are you an asshole?”
If you’re looking for a person who fits well with the expression “he has a rag in his mouth,” you don’t have to go far.
Kang-hu’s mouth twitched after hearing Kim Mok-hyeon’s answer.
The first and last negotiations broke down immediately.
“Can you hear this now?”
“What are you talking about? Is this because I drank the medicine? It was nonsense from earlier. repeatedly?”
“It’s the sound of your only rosy future crumbling to dust.”
Faaah!
As soon as I finished speaking, I ran straight to the stairs. It is the only passage leading upstairs.
Kanghu had predicted Kim Mok-hyeon’s attack repertoire to some extent.
This is because in the original work, Jeon Joong-ho, Kim Mok-hyeon’s teacher and mentor, was treated harshly by Jang Si-hwan.
Of course, the person who designed the battle scene was the original author, the current Kang Hu.
And the current battle structure was the same as that situation.
Ta-da-da-da-da!
Kim Mok-hyun, who made eye contact with Kang-hoo, who came up in an instant, immediately used the skill given to him by the constellation.
It is a loss of vision.
Before seeing Kim Mok-hyeon, Kang Hu had figured out his own target based on the constellation information that was floating around early on.
Without slowing down, Ganghu responded by raising his dagger and blocking his eyes.
It was the classic but most difficult way to avoid being robbed of vision by covering the eyes with the side of the dagger.
“······What?”
Kim Mok-hyeon was embarrassed.
To lose sight, turn your body backwards. You can get it even if you close or cover your eyes beforehand.
It is only effective if you cover your eyes like a knife right before the sight-robbing effect hits.
Kim Mok-hyun had never seen a hunter counter a vision robbery so smoothly before.
This is something that can never happen unless you completely understand and see through the mechanism of the skill.
A bit of a surprise.
Kang-hu’s hand twitched slightly, as if clenching into a fist, and immediately stopped moving.
It was such a short movement that even Kim Mok-hyeon, who has a keen eye for attention, could not recognize which skill it was a preliminary movement for.
at that time.
“Keuuk!”
Kim Mok-hyeon’s body floated in the air and was dragged by Kang Hu without any time to do anything.
What happened in a split second.
Kim Mok-hyeon was dragged away without knowing what had happened to him.
That’s because the kidnapping skill is the exclusive property and trademark of the demon Ibria.
It is not a skill that a hunter can have. Anyone who could have it would have tried to secure it.
After the kidnapping, Kang-hoo, who used the lateral movement skill, was already positioned behind Kim Mok-hyeon at that point.
The neat connection made Kang-hoo completely disappear from the sight of Kim Mok-hyeon, who was dragged in.
Kang Hu did not miss the opportunity and immediately thrust out his dagger.
I felt like I would miss the timing when using the long sword attached to my waist because there was a gap in the middle.
Phew!
“Kaaaaak!”
The dagger, stretched out with all its might, penetrated the back of Kim Mok-hyeon’s right back.
Although the attack was aimed at the left.
Kim Mok-hyeon, seeing that Kang-hu had disappeared from sight, instinctively twisted his body.
As a result, the final hitting point changed to the right back.
Sigh!
Blood spattered on Kang-hu, who cruelly pulled out the dagger.
The opportunity to attack still lies with Ganghu. So, I immediately went a little deeper and tried to stab the back of the neck.
However, Kim Mok-hyeon did not take it easy and responded right away.
Cheeeeeek!
‘Burn mana.’
Warlock skills.
It is an aggressive skill that burns all mana in the target range.
Papat.
Kang-hu took a step back because he could have burned his entire face if he ignored it and attacked him.
‘You’re in a state of awakening.’
Kang Hu frowned.
Kim Mok-hyeon’s reactions and responses were much faster than I expected. The only reason is awakening.
‘Awakening’ allows you to dramatically increase your attack tempo by using your mana as collateral.
Since it doesn’t seem to have any effect on the constellation, there must be an awakening effect among the items worn.
Faaah! Faaah! Faaah!
Kim Mok-hyeon, who had gained time, began pouring out continuous fireworks toward Kang Hu.
Although the leap was useful, it was not enough to ignore the waves of attacks and run.
Just because you can’t follow it with your eyes doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist in space.
‘It seems like there’s definitely a reason to take off all of his items and eat them.’
I have an abundance of items. What an awakening effect. Did he get it by stabbing some kind of hunter in the back?
Tadadat!
I used my leap to get as far back as possible from the battlefield.
Because it was so advanced, there was no need to relax in dodging in a situation where fireworks were flying like bullets.
Ganghu quickly moved to the place where the pillars that ran through the center of the building stood tall.
Kwakwakwak!
Then, Jin Jin-ra’s fireworks, which were flying towards Kang-hu, all hit the concrete pillar and scattered.
Pieces flew in all directions, but the solid pillar did not budge.
“Don’t be a rip-off! How long are you going to hide there?”
Kim Mok-hyeon shouted.
Kang Hu didn’t even respond.
Rather, he took advantage of the opportunity and deployed an illusion technique in the blind spot behind the pillar.
Five illusions appeared, and only one of them was sent out of the pillar.
At the same time.
Ssyuk.
I used a lateral movement targeting the pillar in front.
Then, the body moved behind the pillar and naturally entered a state of hiding.
Camouflage that completely hides the appearance through deception and concealment that casts an illusion as if it were the body.
Kang Hu took a moment to catch his breath and looked at Kim Mok-hyeon. As expected, Kim Mok-hyeon’s gaze was directed towards the illusion.
Paang!
Kang Hoo, who leaped with a roar that split the space, quickly narrowed the distance to right in front of Kim Mok-hyeon.
It’s definitely because Kim Mok-hyeon has thick bones while dealing with many hunters.
Taaang!
The first attack, which carried the momentum of the leap, was narrowly blocked.
Kim Mok-hyun blocked it using the level 50 basic skill, Devil’s Wall.
Rather than knowing and blocking it, it was closer to feeling something approaching and instinctively blocking it.
Kanghu immediately took out the next move.
He placed his body on Kim Mok-hyeon as if he was halfway on top of him and quickly stabbed him with his dagger.
It was an unexpected attack filled with mana. That’s 3 consecutive hits like lightning.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
“Gagging! 100 million! “Gagging!”
Kim Mok-hyeon, who was stabbed in the collarbone, inside the left armpit, and in the direction of the side in an instant, let out a groan.
Kang-hu knew that Kim Mok-hyeon was wearing a breastplate-shaped item under his clothes.
So, rather than targeting the solid area covered by the breastplate, I targeted the gap where the defense was weak.
The result was a huge success.
Kim Mok-hyeon started bleeding heavily from three open wounds that looked like a burst water balloon.
“under.”
All the emotions were contained in Kim Mok-hyeon’s short exclamation.
Confusion and surprise. And fear of death.
A cold sweat broke out.
It’s strange, but it’s too strange.
The power of each skill Kanghu used was so good that it could be described as extreme.
Not only was he able to achieve stealth cleanly, but the time it took for him to jump to himself in that state was very short.
Even if you are a level 100 hunter, not all of your skills can be effective.
Common sense should be applied, but somehow Ganghu was an exception.
“Ssi shibaaaal…!”
Feeling unbearable humiliation, Kim Mok-hyeon exploded with a poison stained with darkness.
At the same time, he immersed himself in a deeper state of awakening and began pouring all his skills towards Ganghu.
Straggler’s Touch, a skill that temporarily makes the floor muddy and reduces mobility.
In addition, the wide-area skill ‘Flame Drop’, which causes fireworks to rain down in the air, was used.
Ganghu once again moved his position behind the pillar. It was quick to use two leaps in a row.
‘No, not now.’
Kang-hu bit his lip as a headache creeped up.
Kang-hu, who had been hiding behind a pillar for a while, took a breath and came out.
Welcome drink?
It wasn’t.
It was a route where the body moved directly under the guise of an illusion technique. This is another deception added to the previous deception.
Kim Mok-hyeon snorted as he honestly looked at Kang-hu coming out the other side of the pillar.
“You idiot! Am I fooled again?”
His gaze turned to the other side.
When Kang-hoo, who came out of the square, sprinted instead of leaping, Kim Mok-hyun ignored Kang-hoo’s body even more.
If it were the main body, there would be no way to approach it so honestly and give it such a long time.
So, I deployed the defensive skill ‘Devil’s Wall’ at the point where I expected the real Ganghu to come.
That moment.
