Episode 99 [Overground] – Avengers, Assemble (1)
Drrrrrrrrrr──!!
What game character is that?
A close-cropped mohawk, a full body of reinforced skin, and even a reinforced exoskeleton that appears to assist in shooting.
‘Cyberpunk?’
I don’t know for sure, but it’s definitely a game set several decades in the future.
Of course, in the decades ahead that Lee Do-hyeok personally experienced, there was no one like that.
Knock knock!
Another scratched submachine gun.
Lee Do-hyeok hid behind the wall.
Although it is an overground where all kinds of characters from all kinds of genres appear, the characters that end up being the most mainstream are those who shoot guns like that.
It seemed like each squad had at least one shooter like that.
The good news is that the farther the distance, the less accurate it becomes.
It seemed like there were separate sniper characters specialized in hitting opponents from a distance.
Of course, since it is still a low-level queue, the accuracy may be that low.
“…hmm.”
Lee Do-hyeok fiddled with the handle of the axe.
The distance between you and your opponent is not that far.
At this level, it’s a sure hit.
But there’s a big gorilla next to the cyberpunk character.
Anyone can see that this character was born to be a tank.
This means that even if you throw an axe, the opponent may be able to defend against it.
I couldn’t just throw away my only two axes so pointlessly.
First of all, the most urgent task is to get closer.
What you need to do for that is….
Taat!
That was when.
Lee Do-hyeok flying sideways.
─Shoot!
And the blade that passes by that place.
“… Huh?!”
A shadow suddenly appeared, along with a voice full of panic.
A figure appears within it.
A surprise attack by an assassin character.
Of course, for Lee Do-hyeok, it was an obvious backstabbing.
-oh
-How did you know?
-What is backstab evasion?
-Did you study in advance?
-Did you do it?
The chat window isn’t that surprising either.
Rapid, the assassin character who had blatantly activated stealth a little while ago and was hiding his appearance.
Any experienced OP player will probably guess that Rapid will aim for a backstab after stealth.
Of course, Lee Do-hyeok didn’t notice the surprise attack in that way.
The opponent’s sudden hiding, and the feeling of air movement nearby.
If Lee Do-hyeok had been the one to suffer such things, he would have been killed by those aliens a long time ago.
wickedness-
At that moment, the opponent activates stealth once again.
But it was already too late.
Kwajik?!
The axe blade shot straight into Rapid’s chest.
Then, Lee Do-hyeok rushes forward and swings his other hand.
The attack just now has already broken the cover.
Lee Do-hyeok’s axe blade cut right through Rapid’s neck.
[Hmm, that’s right -> Unknown#82 (fainted)]
Bam!
Lee Do-hyeok took out the axe that was stuck in his chest and put it in his waistband.
There was no sign of any other members besides the three, so I don’t know if they were originally a trio or if one of them left.
So now there are two guys left.
One tanker and one with a submachine gun.
A cyberpunk character’s sub-machine gun that spits out bullets at such a fast rate that it could almost be called a barrage.
If it were 1 vs 1, I would have fought while avoiding to some extent and taking some hits, but now it was a 1 vs many battle.
But that doesn’t mean you can just throw them all away.
but…
Turuk-
Easy to solve.
Lee Do-hyeok lifted Rapid’s unconscious body.
“Hmm. That’s a good shield.”
-?
-yes?
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋf*ck
-Meat shield on
-Ah lol, if the shield doesn’t come out, just make one.
If you can’t avoid it, then why not just not avoid it?
Taat!
Lee Do-hyeok started running, stepping on the stepping stone.
Of course, with Rapid’s body leaning forward and covering his body.
“Huh?!”
“crazy…!”
The look of surprised enemies.
Since my comrade was unconscious rather than dead, I had no choice but to decide whether to shoot him or resolve it through close combat and revive him later.
The distance keeps shrinking.
“Just shoot!”
“Ahh…!”
Their choice is to block the opponent’s approach.
Drrrrrrrr!
The devil born in the nightmare of trench warfare, the submachine gun!
The effect was powerful.
An assassin character who dies immediately after having one magazine completely empty.
[Hmm, that’s right -> Unknown#82 (death)]
Of course, since it was Lee Do-hyeok who knocked him down, it is counted as his kill.
Knock-!
The last bullet was fired by Lee Do-hyeok, who ran away, leaving the body behind.
If you were going to shoot, you should have shot right away without hesitation.
Because the distance had been shortened by almost half in the meantime.
Crunch-!
Eventually, all the magazines ran out.
The gorilla next to him rushes in, perhaps to buy time to reload.
Kuung!
The gorilla arrived in front of Lee Do-hyeok with one leap.
“hmm…?”
Even as Lee Do-hyuk, he couldn’t help but be surprised for a moment.
What is this…
─Crunch!
… is it suicide?
A service that comes to you before you even go.
It’s a very easy task, as you just need to twist your body to dodge the swinging fist, run without losing any speed, and aim the axe blade at the opponent’s exposed vital spot.
-and
-Wow
-What? You’re filming a movie alone, lol
-It’s a real mad movie itself
-First of all, he’s a crazy guy, yeah
Of course, it was a different story for the viewers watching it.
Crunch! Crunch!
Lee Do-hyeok passes by after chopping wood three times in that short period of time.
[Hmm, that’s right -> Unknown#45 (fainted)]
It only took 1 second for the fainting log to appear.
As I tried to adapt to Lee Do-hyeok’s crazy physique, he continued to show me something new.
From the viewers’ perspective, there is no other show that is more beneficial than this.
[Overground, Running for 1st Place in Ranking with Hawken / Lee Do-hyeok / 51,015 people]
His viewership still remains at around 50,000.
Of course, not all of them had been watching Lee Do-hyeok’s broadcast from the beginning.
At least several thousand people have come to take a look after hearing the recent news about Opgg Jjikmeok.
In addition, among the existing fighting game viewers, there were quite a few who only watched Lee Do-hyeok’s fighting game broadcasts and did not watch other game broadcasts such as Valhalla or Monster.
The type of viewer who likes competitive games, but not so much single-player games.
But even they couldn’t help but think about taking a look at a major game like OPG.
For them, Lee Do-hyuk’s current appearance is a truly refreshing shock.
It was because I saw for the first time that Lee Do-hyeok had an absurd fighting ability, not only in 1 vs. 1 battles, but also in 1 vs. many battles.
-and
-But this guy isn’t only good at 1:1;;
-Really, what kind of physique is this?
-Isn’t your sense of combat just terrible?
-Is this person really a full dive newbie?
-No, it’s been 3 months
-?
“No, what kind of a Confucian scholar is this here…?!”
The last remaining cyberpunk character.
According to the chat window, the name is Fixer.
His submachine gun aimed at Lee Do-hyeok again.
But the tanker has already been ordered to leave, and only one fixer remains.
There, the distance has also become narrower.
Whirl!
You’d have to be a pretty high tier to avoid Lee Do-hyeok’s axe throws on the street right now.
Crunch-!
An axe blade that flies quickly and stabs directly into the neck.
Lee Do-hyeok threw an additional axe to confirm the kill.
[Hmm, that’s right -> Unknown#09 (death)]
[Hmm, that’s right -> Unknown#45 (dead)]
Kill log that pops up right away.
But the kill log was quickly overshadowed by other messages.
[Heumgeujeongdunga has become the CHAMPION.]
-Wow
-First place in the first round
-That’s right lol
-Your opponent seems to be of a higher level though?
-ㅇㅇ A lot of people are farming these days because the sub-character has been released
-But this guy knows more about Battle Royale than I thought.
“The first round is over.”
Tiring-
[Mission Success!]
Tiring-
[Mission Success!]
Quickly popping up chat window and mission notifications.
Complete both the 1st place mission and the kill mission.
Next, the match summary page appeared before my eyes.
[Match Summary]
Squad Placed : #1/100
Kills: 24 kills
Damage Dealt: 2,634
Revive Ally : 0
Earned XP: +7,351
Level 1 -> 16!
Is it because he took first place with solo quad and got over 20 kills?
Level up from level 1 to level 16 in one go.
-Wow
-24 kills ㅠㅠㅠ My money…
-Damage is 2600 lol
-I caught the one that was revived too lol
-Was it this easy to eat the champion?
-It’s practically 1 vs 100 content lol

[Match Summary]
Squad Placed : #1/100

Damage Dealt: 2,102
Revive Ally : 0
Earned XP: +8,351
Level 46 -> 50!
How many more rounds did we repeat?
Level 50 reached faster than expected.
As the number of wins increased, experience points accumulated more quickly, perhaps due to a winning streak bonus.
Does this mean I should stop studying and quickly move on to ranked games?
“I’m starting to get the hang of it now.”
Lee Do-hyeok said while looking at level 50 on the results page.
-Yes?
-Slowly?
-Hey sir, you were a crazy lunatic until just a moment ago lol
As the chat window said, Lee Do-hyeok went around looking for other players and slaughtered them like crazy.
But now I think I’m starting to get the hang of it.
But that’s not what Lee Do-hyeok meant.
“This… is it really a can of poop?”
The performance of Hawken experienced firsthand.
I’ve heard a lot about it being rusty, rusty, but I didn’t think it would be this bad.
“Is this only Hawken? Or are all the Ice Kings like this?”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋThey’re all bad, but Mutoga is the worst
-But if I were the only Dohyuk sensei, do you think I would get first place?
-I agree that it’s hard to do it alone.
Even if you deal with enemies holding flashers, there were too many restrictions when dealing with enemies that could move in the air beyond 3D maneuvers.
The only thing I like is that each hit deals significant damage.
By maximizing your physical performance through spec-up through farming, you can have both mobility and destructive power.
But apart from those, everything else was a downside.
Lack of defense, durability, ranged skills and color abilities, etc.
-Hold on, it’s the Hawken you chose.
-I told you to get rid of the evil spirits~
-Ah ㅋㅋ Who threatened you with a knife? ㅋㅋㅋ They threatened you with money. -Really ㅋㅋ In the end, Lee Do-hyuk came to one conclusion.
“I don’t think I can do this alone.”
He needed a squad too.
Overground features three modes: Solo Play, Duo Play, and Squad Play.
However, solo play and duo play are more like special modes.
Ultimately, the only mode that is treated as the main mode and also has a pro league is Squad Mode.
That means, Lee Do-hyeok’s #1 ranking also had to be achieved in squad mode.
Even if he took first place as a solo or duo, Lee Do-hyuk would have won first place, but he was not satisfied with such a superficial first place.
“But it’s been a bit easier so far because everyone’s level has been low.”
It will probably be like that for a while.
After leveling up and entering the ranked game, if you are Lee Do-hyeok, you will be able to do what is called Yanghak up to a certain tier.
But that doesn’t mean it can stay that way forever.
Just because it’s squad mode doesn’t mean it’s just 1 vs 4. Sometimes you might have to face two or three squads at once, and it could even be a 1 vs 12 battle.
Even if he’s Lee Do-hyeok, he can’t beat ten hands with one hand… It’s not true, but it’s difficult.
At some point, you will inevitably reach a limit.
As for OpG, the higher you go in the tier, the more skilled players there will be.
Even if you only consider Iron Fist, if you fight several professional level players in a 1 vs. 1 match, even Lee Do-hyeok will inevitably lose.
‘About… three or four people?’
The best he can do, in his opinion.
Anything more than that was impossible.
Even in Overground, where all-versus-all combat is the norm, there will come a time when you will find yourself overwhelmed by your own strength.
“I can’t help it. I have no choice but to call my colleagues.”
Boom- Boom-
Lee Do-hyuk left the Opg screen for a moment and entered Discord.
He opened his friends list and contacted the person who was listed as [playing Monster Buddies].
[“…Huh? Mr. Dohyuk?”]
“Avengers, assemble.”
[“…???”]
-?
-??
-?
-That’s a long story
-Hey, old man…
-Hahahahahahahahahaha
-F*ck lol
Lee Do-hyeok recruits colleagues with a line from a now classic movie.
The two ended up joining Lee Do-hyeok’s squad.
“Oh! Mr. Dohyuk, you’ve started the optg!”
One is a black orc.
As expected from a physical game streamer, Blackwing, who is also skilled in Overground, appeared with a dazzling costume and showed off that he spent some money on OP.
And the other one…
“Hoo hoo. This body, here it comes.”
Gianchu, the guardian of the Ulpa and the Monver crop manager (gathering slave).
-F*ck lol
-When siblings appear in pairs, they say the same thing lol
-Really, when I see this, I think they are real siblings
Lee Do-hyuk looked at the two and thought.
“Acquire two meat shields.”
Words that just came out without you knowing it, just thinking about it.
-?
-yes?
-What, two? Hahahaha
“Huh?”
“… Yes? … Dohyuk?”
Gian and Black Oak’s reactions upon hearing that.
“…?”
Lee Do-hyuk paused for a moment, then continued speaking.
“Oh, I thought to myself.”
-F*ck lol
-No lol Then you’re being sincere anyways lol – Even your own little brother is a helpless sensei lol
-Is Blackbeard also a meat shield? Hahaha, so humiliating. Hahaha
Of course, it was an unfair thing to say to Black Orc.
“No, you have to exclude me. How can you treat me like Gian?”
Even though he was called the Meat Shield, he tied himself and Gian together.
As a (sort of) physical streamer, it was an unbearable humiliation.
Ji-an was embarrassed when she heard that.
“… Mr. Black?”
anyway.
A real meat shield.
1 person for meat shield care.
Lastly, Lee Do-hyeok alone.
Samquad Avengers, let’s go!
