Insanely-Talented Player

Episode 33:

The jungle, as its name suggests, was not a place to be trifled with. Especially in a jungle full of human hunters.

In any case, since the goal of defeating the boss mob ‘Green King' as well as being the last surviving group exists, there is no choice but to

move forward in order to win.

The sunlight pouring through the tree branches went down and the light pouring like a ray disappeared. The cries of animals echoing everywhere and the sounds of animals rustling past tormented my nerves to no end.

However, in the labyrinth-like jungle, Yooseong's senses were strangely free of delusion.

I had no idea where to go, because the paths in the jungle seemed clear as if they were fluorescent in the darkness.

It was thanks to the blessings of the monarch who had previously increased his provocation level in exchange for rumors of a romantic relationship with a saint, and had obtained it in exchange for it.

Protection 1《Guide's Sixth Sense）

-Number of ranks

-Effect

. You can proceed accurately on the road without getting lost.

It's really easy to understand and simple.

At first glance, it may seem that this protection is barely worthy of an S rank, but accurately advancing to the destination implies more than just text.

For example, when using Assassination Notice and applying debuffs such as overlapping weaknesses to the opponent, it felt like the closest way to killing the opponent was the correct way. It was a buff effect from the assassination example itself, but it also had a synergistic effect with this protection, so it was so clear that an intangible path that could lead to the death of the target was seen.

It was no exception even in the unpredictable darkness of the jungle.

The Guide Lord's contractors always have a mysterious affinity for being ‘on the road'. Regardless of the geographical meaning, even when engaging in battle with an opponent, one is swayed by knowing the exact destination to which their sword path must travel.

And the very same Guardian Lord's protection is a blessing that is equivalent to a Drak. It is a protection that exerts this intangible influence even though it does not directly enhance weapon skills or skill effects, like the Sword Sharpener (S) or the Winter Bringer (S). is always special.

‘I have a lot to write about over and over again.'

However, Yoosung did not carelessly tell this fact to his colleagues. There is no benefit in telling them, and relying on yourself one-sidedly will ultimately lead to the failure of the attack.

“Let’s rest here.”

Saying that, Yooseong sat down on the jungle floor. The expressions of the idiot and Lee Seong-ah turned pale.

“You want to spend the night in this jungle?”

“How do you know how many more days it will take since you don’t even sleep?”

“But

there could be bugs or poisonous creatures…

“Goblins or players could attack.”

“Then, if that’s what you’re saying, we should take turns looking at the lookout and resting.”

“Still, I wonder if we can properly watch...

the high school player said hesitantly. He didn't realize that fact until right before the goblin's arrow flew and pierced his head, and he was unilaterally saved by Yoosung. There is no guarantee that such disasters will not occur again.

“That's none of my business. I'll just keep my eyes closed. “Please wake me up before we all die.”

Nevertheless, Yooseong didn’t care and lay down.

They vividly felt the gaze of a group of players watching them from beyond the darkness.

The hero king of the world is lying down in the jungle, sleeping.

And the assassin lord's contractor from group B, who was hiding in the dark, took a suffocating breath in the bushes.

Instead, the people watching and guarding him are insignificant third-rate players who probably won't realize his existence until they get close to his back.

‘...It must be a trap.'

There is nothing to see. Anyway, you can tell that he is also a veteran player near level 40. About the notoriety of the King of Heroes, who is said to be the pinnacle of all players out there.

I couldn't believe it when I saw it. Who would have guessed that the King of Heroes of the World was participating in the hostile group in the competitive battle?

King of heroes? There wasn't even a laugh. That thing is literally a monster.

That's why the Assassin Lord's contractor quietly died. It's still too early. No, I couldn't even predict whether the time would come in the first place.

‘Let's step back and give a warning first.'

It was right then.

“Why are you looking so intently when you’re going to run away anyway?”

The King of Heroes, who was supposed to be asleep until just moments before, was now appearing behind him. The Assassin Lord's contractor gasped and turned his head.

Even now, the King of Heroes was still sleeping beyond. It meant only one thing.

‘Illusion...

A sword was swung in the darkness without even a moment to realize. No, more accurately, it rose from the shadows beneath our feet.

It was a sharply forged seven-pointed blade.

Early morning the next day.

A group of human hunter players began to move in the jungle, each with their own purpose. Yoosung was no exception.

Two groups of players were clashing. To be exact, the five members of Group C and Yoo Seong Hana. Huh!

I swung the frost sword in my hand.

Every time you swing the sword, the blade follows the exact path it should take.

Drunk's protection, the guide's sixth sense.

The tip of the sword rushed forward without a word of hesitation to suffocate the opponent. Following the correct answer indicated by the paths of the sword.

Even if you have divine protection, it does not mean that you can immediately demonstrate 100% of that ability. Especially if the text is vague and not expressed numerically, the power of the protection can only be fully brought out through endless polishing and forging.

Therefore, Yoosung consciously focused on the ‘path’, conscious of his sixth sense as a guide.

The frost sword in his hand ran without interruption along the neck bone, the gap between the flesh, and the joint of the flesh bone.

‘It might be faster to attack the boss.'

Pojeong Haewoo on丁解牛） Just as a cowman who has reached the state of Tao slaughters a cow and cuts off its bones and flesh, the cutting process is over.

The blade ran along the gap between the bone and the flesh.

The body of one of the hostile group players collapsed helplessly and Yooseong turned his head.

Yoosung's body also collapsed into the shadows beneath his feet, as if melting. The thunderbolts crashed down on that spot in vain.

“Oh, it’s gone!”

“Behind my back!”

The scared players of Group C. The darkness rose up from behind their backs and formed a silhouette.

Stepping on shadows.

As soon as Yooseong showed up behind him, Blackbird peeked out from under his feet. The sea of

shadows

spread out, and the maw of a strange fish rose up and swallowed another player whole. Wow! With the sound of something being torn apart, the shadow under my feet turned blood red.

“Now there are three left.”

“Surrender surrender!”

No sooner had he muttered than three players from Group C fell to their knees.

Rule: If 3 out of a group of 5 players die, the remaining players are also disqualified and can be revived according to ‘Rule 1'.

Therefore, one player raised his hands pretending to surrender and then quickly swung his sword.

It wasn't towards the shooting star. The intention was to kill his teammates and get the entire group out of the game by disqualification.

“Where are you running away to?”

Sigh!

Even faster than that, a shadow skewer rose from beneath his feet and stabbed the palm holding the sword.

“Aaaahhh!”

“Oh, why are you trying to retire so easily?”

“I surrender, I surrender!”

“Please, at least without pain...!”

“Oh, that’s not difficult.”

Yooseong said, adjusting the hilt of the frost sword and holding it.

“By the way, you know everything, right? “If you die so horribly in the tower, even if you are resurrected in the outside world, it will be difficult for you to come to your senses because of the pain.”

— Nya.

Black Mangi was grinning at Yooseong’s feet.

“Mr. Park Seong-ho.”

“yes yes!”

Just like that, Yoosung turned his head. Towards a level 20 player and contractor of the Iron Lord.

“From now on, Mr. Park Seong-ho, there is only one thing to do.”

Phew!

“Aaaahhh!”

Immediately afterwards, a shadow blade rose towards the body of one of the Group C players. The player tried to escape from this game and had his palm pierced by a skewer.

It is by no means a fatal wound. However, the wounds were tearing his body to the point where it was virtually impossible to move any further.

“Watch this fellow here and behead him as soon as I tell him to. “I tore a tendon in my hand and can barely walk, so it shouldn’t be that difficult.”

“Oh, I understand!”

“And the other two.”

Yooseong let out a cold sigh. The two survivors of Group C, who could barely move, trembled and looked at the shooting star.

“From now on, you can choose one of the three.

“Think carefully before answering.”

MW

......

“You either resurrect with your mind broken in pain, or you become food for a monster in the labyrinth. “You don’t want two, do you?”

The two survivors nodded desperately at Yooseong’s words.

“Then become my colleague.”

Around this time, two players from Group C were killed, one was maimed, and two became ‘companions' of the King of Heroes.

One of the players in Group B, the Assassin Lord's contractor survived even after encountering the King of Heroes for the first time.

“I found the Group A players!”

Then he returned and told his group mates the information he had obtained.

“Looking at the level, it’s not that high and I think we can win.”

The other four people did not hesitate at those words. Coincidentally, all of them are players optimized for stealth, so it would be better to aim for the rest of the group's back rather than hunting down boss mobs.

Therefore, following his words, the players in Group B waited for the right time and the darkness of the night finally fell.

After that, he got ready for battle and moved toward the direction pointed by the Assassin Lord's contractor.

Rustle.

A branch broke and the Assassin Lord's contractor came to a halt.

“Here.”

“Here? “There is nothing.”

“Forgive me...

As soon as the Assassin Lord’s contractor began to hesitate, the other four also realized what had happened.

“You damn traitor...!”

[Keyword: You will be marked for death!] An

assassination notice was placed on the head of the highest-level senior player among them, making it impossible for him to escape.

Sigh!

A silhouette emerged from behind him and the veteran player quickly turned around. Immediately after

Kaang,

a shadow blade rose from beneath his feet. It was not the skill of the player King of Heroes.

Likewise, it was a skill he possessed as a contractor for the Shadow Lord.

The shadow blades collided like mirrors, but it did not take long for the mirror's symmetry to be broken.

Another shadow blade rose from above the blade. One

Puuk

was killed, and the assassination notice was once again displayed over the head of a new target.

It was literally a sign of unquestionable death.

Aside from the increase and decrease in stats, the ‘Assassin's Mindset' buff on Yoosung and the ‘Weakness Exposure' debuff that stacks up to 5 times, combined with the

guide's sixth sense, created an immeasurable number of paths.

It was enough to plunge the tip of the sword along that path.

Two players died. And three players were left behind.

“Hey, you promised!” “Please kill me without pain!”

The group's traitorous Assassin Lord's contractor begged. Hearing those words, Yoosung tilted his head.

“What do you mean, asking me to kill you?”

“What?”

“A true hero never abandons his comrades under any circumstances.”

“You crazy psycho bastard...

“In our industry, that’s a compliment.”

Nothing changed in the ensuing swearing.

“Why do you trust others so recklessly?”
