Episode 299 Infiltration (5)

“See, I told you I could do it?”

Jeon Se-hyeok was delighted.

Ban Se-young, who was watching the video from the side, had a dumbfounded expression on her face.

The screen clearly showed the corpse of Jo Hwan-seong, who was undoubtedly a pervert.

There is no way Kang-hoo would lie, and if he said he killed her, then he really did.

“Wow… … . You really infiltrated the camp alone and took over the commander? Is that possible, Oppa?”

“Are you going to continue denying reality? Mr. Kang-hoo, I checked. Thank you for your hard work. I will move right away. It’s pouring rain right now.”

At Jeon Se-hyeok’s words, Kang-hu slightly opened the iron door of the camp director’s office and looked outside.

– Anyway, the main power’s final destination will be the main gate. I will try to disperse the line of sight as much as possible around there.

“You don’t have to push yourself too hard.”

– I won’t overdo it. But I think there’s a lot of room for fun.

“Yes. If there’s something fun to see, you should see it. Then we’ll leave right away. Thank you for your hard work.”

– It’s not free service, and it’s not hard work. Well, I’ll see you at the camp soon.

The call was immediately hung up.

Even after the call ended, Jeon Se-hyeok watched the video again with a look of disbelief for a long time.

Because it was automatically recorded, playback was possible.

And what was seen in the video was the appearance of the camp director, Jo Hwan-seong, who had been closely observed in advance.

“… … This is really a jackpot.”

“I did it all by myself.”

“That’s right. But just because Jo Hwan-seong is dead doesn’t mean it’s over. Now it’s our turn to pass the baton. Get ready.”

“Everything is ready, brother.”

“Then let’s go. It’s time to wipe out every last one of those Eclipse guys!”

Jeon Se-hyeok shouted with great excitement. Ban Se-young’s shoulders shook as well.

Who would have thought that one assassin could turn the tide of battle in their favor like this?

Even my close acquaintance, Ban Se-young, was half-believing and half-doubting. I bet he couldn’t have imagined it at Eclipse.

“Yes, this is Jeon Se-hyeok. Let’s advance. The general is dead. Yes, I confirmed it with my own eyes.”

And Jeon Se-hyeok immediately contacted the Cheong-an Mercenary Corps and the Black Lion. The prelude to the attack was raised.

* * *

“I see how much of a human nature you have been.”

Meanwhile, Kang-hu felt a sense of alienation at the sight of the camp where there was no reaction even though Jo Hwan-seong was dead.

Of course, it is impossible to ignore the fact that compatibility is dead.

But there would have been flashes of lightning in the control room, and there would have been crashing sounds from the collision.

Not a single guard came this way.

Even if it could be because of the fire in Sogak-dong, it was a bit strange that he didn’t come for additional reports.

‘Looking at the way the collection office was made to feel like an Abang Palace, it seems like they might have hated having people over in the first place.’

Before infiltrating the director’s office.

Kang-hoo had seen the series of situations in detail, with the curtain of concealment, shadow, and artifice spread out.

Jo Hwan-seong was a man with an eccentric personality who was overbearing and enjoyed men.

So, he probably didn’t like other ‘low-level’ people coming into the space he decorated to his own taste.

Perhaps the guards are delaying reporting the situation even though they need to do so for fear of incurring Jo Hwan-seong’s displeasure.

at that time.

I saw a guard running towards me, muttering something with a very wrinkled face.

Since Kang-hoo was outside the iron gate in hiding, the guard didn’t notice his presence at all.

You wouldn’t even think that there would be another being in the collection room where the collection is always located.

“… … .”

Kang-hoo waited quietly.

And the guard who came to the front of the office knocked on the iron door and confirmed that he went in with the horse.

The next moment.

“Huh… … ?”

The guard was surprised to see Jo Hwan-seong, who should have been drinking alcohol in the warden’s office, lying face down.

No, he didn’t collapse, he was dead, bleeding profusely!

Suicide? No. It was a perfect murder. And it was a brutal end.

A major accident occurred.

The moment the anxious guard turned around to tell the other guards the truth.

“Ugh!”

Something slit his throat and passed through, ending the guard’s life. All that lay before him was the path to the afterlife.

“If we just wait quietly, they might be able to keep killing us like this. This is really sloppy.”

Kang-hoo burst into laughter.

Although personal privacy is important, you should still be prepared for emergencies.

There were no CCTV facilities at all inside the collection office.

It was most likely his own choice to avoid recording his bad taste.

Kang-hoo took advantage of the brief moment of free time to look into the constellation information he had stolen from Jo Hwan-seong earlier.

【Steel Assault Captain】

【When there are no other enemies within a 10m radius, your strength stat judgment increases by 25%.】

“It’s a one-on-one specialization. It’s surprisingly stronger than I expected… … So there was a reason.”

It is also a constellation with good synergy for Kang-hoo, whose strength stat is important.

This is especially true for those who often create one-on-one situations. The blow will be more powerful.

【Iron-Blooded Grand Duke】

【Each time the enemy uses a skill to ‘evade’ an attack, you will be granted the Iron Blooded Air Buff, which increases your attack skill damage by 25%.

The ascended state lasts for 1 minute and can be stacked up to 10 times (250% increase).

However, using the ‘Defense’ skill does not grant you the Iron Blooded Air Buff.】

“Ah, so that’s why you pushed me so blatantly. Plus, since I’m an assassin, the chances of me using evasion skills are much higher.”

I was wondering why Jo Hwan-seong was so aggressive in his attacks earlier, but the constellation solved my doubt.

The problem is that Kang-hoo used defensive skills to counter everything except for one quick evasion skill at the beginning.

Because of that, the effect of the Iron Blood Alliance was less than expected, and this also became a variable.

Perhaps because it was stolen from a skilled hunter, its value seems high.

At that time, Kang-hoo was enjoying the joy of acquisition with a satisfied expression.

Why, why, why-.

The whole alarm started to sound.

It seemed that the attack by Jeon Se-hyeok’s group, Cheong-an Mercenary Corps, and the Black Lion Allied Forces had finally begun.

This alarm is a call to action to summon all forces within the camp, signaling the outbreak of all-out war.

“first…….”

Kang-hoo prepared to cut off the head of Jo Hwan-seong’s fallen body.

We need the guy’s head so we can hang it in the most visible place in the middle of the camp.

If you hear news that your captain is dead before the battle even starts, your morale will plummet.

This is because it means that there is an ‘enemy’ that is much stronger than them.

Whether thousands of years ago or now, the importance of playing the role of a leader in battles and wars has not changed.

yet.

Chomp!

The head of the compatibility was cut off.

Thanks to the double-edged axe he had, I was able to cleanly save only the part above the neck.

To the average person, and to those with a weak stomach, it would be an extremely grotesque sight.

Kang-hoo felt relieved because he had condemned the worst of the worst. It was just a shame that he couldn’t do it sooner.

at that time.

Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

Here and there, the sound of defense facilities operating at full power could be heard.

As power is supplied, you can easily guess just by listening to the sound of the facilities turning.

Up until this point, everything had proceeded according to the camp’s manual. But a variable arose.

Woof woof! Woof woof! Woof!

Wheeing… … .

Don’t miss it!

Suddenly, the power supply was cut off, and sparks appeared in several places, causing the facility to stop working.

It was the response from the ‘insider’ that Jeon Se-hyeok had previously mentioned.

An insider who had remained undisclosed until now stabbed Eclipse in the eye at a crucial moment.

This would neutralize the fences and assault facilities surrounding the camp’s perimeter.

From the perspective of the camp, where people were supposed to be able to fight with spears and shields, it was as if the shields had been completely taken down.

“Chief! Chief… … !”

The urgent cries of the guards are heard.

The level of the guard coming to report was now obvious, so I waited without hiding.

The moment the guard opened the iron door and came in, his eyes met Kang-hoo’s.

“ah……?”

He could see the head of Jo Hwan-seong that Kang-hu was holding in his hand, and he had a gut feeling that the situation was completely messed up.

Still, he had some spirit, so he grabbed the sword on his waist and rushed at Kang-hoo.

Since he was a guard who had no information about the contract with the constellation, Kang-hoo dodged backwards and deliberately let himself be attacked.

I wanted to see how much of a role the stamina I had steadily built up over time would play against a guy like this.

The results came out right away.

wickedness!

It was clear that the guard’s sword had cut through Kang-hoo’s skin, but instead of blood spurting out, only a scratch remained.

“uh?”

The guard was embarrassed.

It was clearly a blow struck with all his might, but Kang-hoo was left with only a scratch like a fingernail.

The guard’s face turned pale.

With this much of a difference in stats, the fate that awaits you is… … .

Shhhhhhhh!

Kuung!

There was no other option but death. The guard who had lost his head cleanly was no longer a human being of this world.

“Overwhelming.”

Kang-hoo repeated the words that came to mind.

This is the concept of overwhelm, and it is also evidence of the ‘stat play’ that hunters experience as they grow.

Even when escaping from the camp, the guards at level 50 and 80 seemed infinitely high.

But now, they were nothing more than flies, unable to even properly inflict damage on their own bodies.

The world hasn’t changed much, but Kang-hoo hasn’t. Too many things have changed.

* * *

15 minutes after that.

When Kang Dong-hyun, who was engaged in a fierce battle in the Cheongju Liberation District, was taking a short break during the lull that had just arrived.

I just received urgent news from the Qingming camp.

It was a time when the remnants of ‘Black’ still remaining in the Cheongju Liberation District were resisting strongly, and we were having a hard time.

“What? What the hell are you talking about?”

Kang Dong-hyun, who had been receiving a series of urgent reports from his subordinates, showed an annoyed reaction from the beginning.

The news coming from the Qingming camp is too absurd to be believed at all.

I thought it was fake news intentionally created by the Black Remnants.

More than 90% of the time, Blacks who have lost their territory will want to divert Eclipse’s attention elsewhere.

“They say the camp commander was killed in action. Even his head was put on display in front of the prison cell… … .”

“No, F*ck, does that make sense? Does it make sense for Hwanseong to die before the battle even starts?”

“That… … I think it would be right to watch the video first.”

Perhaps because he thought it was meaningless for his subordinate to convey it verbally, he showed Kang Dong-hyun the video he had sent from the scene.

Even though it was a little dark because it was night, the video was clear and there was no problem understanding the content.

and.

“… … .”

Kang Dong-hyun could see it.

A neatly cut head of a harmonious person is held in someone’s hand as if it were a gift.

And the identity of the hunter who is shaking his head in confusion and making an arrogant expression on his face is… … .

“You’re Shin Kang-hu?”

It was Kang-hoo’s face that I never wanted to see again like this.

The terrible evil fate visited Kang Dong-hyun again. But this time, it was a fatal blow.
