Episode 84
Fuuk.
Taehyeon’s talisman touched Xu Xin’s back.
For rare grade items.
Strength stat reaching S rank.
There are not many people in the world who could survive even if they gave their back to Taehyun like that.
But unfortunately.
Xu Xin was one of those few people.
“It doesn’t even tickle.”
A faint voice was heard through the earrings.
He grabbed Taehyun’s wrist and threw him away roughly.
Quang.
The collision accelerated the collapse of the already unbalanced building.
Clang.
‘Armor? It’s unbelievably… hard.’
Frowning at the shock conveyed beyond Stoneskin.
Taehyun stood up.
Meanwhile, Samrodu Tetsu was trying to leave the building with two escorts.
He was aiming for the opportunity when his skills were weakened by Xu Xin’s attack.
‘If you miss it here, it’s impossible to catch it during a friendly match.’
No matter how Taehyun is, it is not easy to find Mine, who has decided to hide himself.
Moreover, if the target was Samrodu, the friendly match would have ended before the proper clues could be found.
There was no need to mention the three major powers of New Korea and China.
‘So here.’
I had to get information about other Samrodu through Tetsu.
Taehyun used his skills once again to keep them on their feet.
Tiring.
[Skill Knight King’s Awe (B) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Binding Chain (B) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
[Skill Paralysis (B) has been activated. Specifies the target.]
“Huh…!!”
“What the…”
“Sigh…!!”
Three skills overlapped with a magic stat exceeding 200.
It is said that it is not at full power due to Xu Xin’s attack.
It was powerful enough to stop the three demons for a moment.
Xu Xin watched this with an expression of interest.
“What a fun guy. “I understand why Tetsu made a fuss.”
He is holding down two S-class advanced demons while dealing with him.
It certainly didn’t seem strange to say that the horsepower was at the level of national power.
“you. “It’s distorted.”
Taehyun, who had become sensitive to the massive amount of magical energy that had escaped, used Stealth once again.
Kaang!!!
Taehyun’s Talisman and Xu Shin’s Death Scythe collided.
“Kkkkkk… Compared to magical power, strength is poor.”
Kyaang. Kyaang. Kyaang. Wow.
The battle between Tae-hyeon and Xu Xin has begun.
‘The speed is a little faster than mine. but.’
Kwaaang.
Taehyun was pushed back and was thrown against the wall once again.
It merely prevented a simple swing.
Still, I felt a stronger tremor than if I received a direct hit from most S-rank skills.
The moment I pulled myself out of the building, Xu Xin’s next attack came.
Wow.
Squeak.
‘…!!’
Cut down Taehyun’s talisman.
Death Scythe passed by his chest by a narrow margin.
If it had been even a little deeper, my body would have been cut in two.
“Hehe. “He’s a guy with a long name.”
Xu Xin said this and extended the length of Death Side.
‘There is a huge difference in items and power.’
Xu Xin, a man of great strength.
Although it has never been officially announced.
According to experts from each country, it is a monster whose strength stat is said to exceed 200.
Just as Taehyun boasts of his overwhelming power with over 200 horsepower.
The same goes for Xu Xin, who crossed that wall.
‘Implementation world. It’s useful, but I don’t need it right now.’
Taehyun put the talisman in with only the handle left and looked at the weapon in Xu Xin’s hand.
S-rank skill Death Side.
Usually, the weak power of the materialization-type skills is pointed out as a weakness.
At least, these words did not apply to the current Xu Xin.
‘The armor I am wearing is a unique item. The weapon used has a hardness that surpasses even unique items.’
In comparison, Taehyun, whose strength and speed stats were low, was a bad match in many ways.
Even if Aslan is surrounded by the magic of predation.
If you collide with Death Scythe, who is swinging at 200 strength, you will not be able to withstand a few hits and will go beyond metal fatigue.
Even if Aslan was broken, it would have been difficult at this point.
‘But if you block that attack with your bare body…’
Taehyun glanced at the wound on his chest.
Even though ‘Stone Skin’ is activated, blood is flowing.
This is because they were unable to properly defend against the missed attack.
gulp.
‘Avoid close combat at all costs.’
Then there weren’t many options left for Taehyun.
“Kkekekeke. “Have you finally realized the difference in level?”
Xu Xin sneered as he watched Taehyun shake his head.
It has armor that even S-rank players cannot penetrate and weapons that can destroy even unique items.
At first, I was taken aback by the unfamiliar magic power.
“It’s half the national power level.”
This was the evaluation that Xu Xin gave to Tae Hyeon after several battles.
“….”
“You’re showing your teeth to the world. You won’t die comfortably. “I’m a child from a small country.”
Taehyun clicked his tongue at Xu Xin’s mocking words.
“That’s funny. “A guy who fixes matches like a rat can talk about the game.”
“what?”
Xu Xin’s expression hardened at Taehyun’s bold attitude.
The corners of Taehyun’s mouth turned up when he noticed the subtle change.
“Did you think I didn’t know? “You guys are accumulating points by capturing the mines you released?”
Wow.
Xu Xin’s hand, which was holding the scythe, naturally gained strength.
“I don’t know about the naive new Korea. “That shrewd Japan must have been diligently gathering evidence by now.”
in other words.
“You are ultimately destined to be ridiculed by the world.”
It was true.
In a previous life, China won the friendly match with an overwhelming number of points.
He was stripped of his championship title by Japan, who raised an objection, and was criticized for becoming a laughing stock around the world.
Of course, by that time, Hong Kong and Taiwan, which had declared complete independence, had been absorbed and unified by China, which did not hide its ambitions.
Xu Xin, who didn’t know that fact right now, couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
His eyes widened from confusion to disbelief. The change from disbelief to anger was instantaneous.
At that time, Samrodu Tetsu could not stand it any longer and shouted.
It was not easy for him to continue to withstand Taehyeon’s power as he was only an S-class low-level demon.
“Shushin… take this…!!”
“Shut up!!!”
“Shushin… sir…?”
Xu Xin shouted like a thunderbolt, and there was madness in his eyes.
“… Kukkuk … This is fun. I didn’t know that guys from a small country were planning something like that. Of course, even if that is true.”
Even if what Taehyun said is true.
He is a man called a man of great strength.
All that was needed was to get rid of all the harmful things.
Xu Xin, steeped in madness.
Taehyun’s eyes calmed down as he looked at him.
‘It’s still not enough. ‘You need to get a little more excited.’
A decisive skill that can turn this unreasonable battle around.
To increase the success rate of that skill, I needed to provoke him a little more.
“Taehyun Kim. “Tell me why I shouldn’t kill you.”
Taehyun poured the magic of predation into Aslan, which might be his last.
“National representatives from Taiwan and Hong Kong who will be variables in absorption and unification. “I guess this friendly match would have been a good stage to eliminate them.”
“Hehe. “There’s one more reason to kill you.”
No more denial.
Xu Xin lifted up Death Scythe, which contained vicious magical power.
* * *
At that time, the battle between Taehyeon and Xu Xin was in full swing.
Shanghai, China.
Inside a large restaurant lined with colorful buildings.
A man and a woman were facing each other in a secretly prepared space.
“You understand that this is friendly competition period, right?”
“sorry. Mingmin Chai. “It’s such an urgent matter.”
“Urgent matter?”
Tsai Ming-min, another national power player in China who massacred Taiwan’s national team.
He tilted his head as he looked at the woman in her mid-30s sitting in front of him.
A woman who looks like she is in her mid-30s, but is actually well over 50.
However, that was not particularly surprising considering the title she held.
The highest official of the Triad Association and China’s Sanrodu Pingguer (苹果).
The opportunity to earn 800 Friendly Match points is right in front of you.
Tsai Mingmin did not recognize her as an enemy.
This is because the Chinese Players Association is behind the Triads.
Among them, China’s Samludu Pingguo and Cai Mingmin had been in a secret relationship.
A physical relationship that began long before a friendly match began.
Currently, a friendly match is in full swing that the world is paying attention to.
If it’s something that calls you out independently of your personal relationship.
‘Are you saying you’re in such a corner? ‘This guy in the position of Samrodu?’
Despite her pretty face, she is also an S-rank demon.
How many people lost their lives because of the poisoned apples she handed out?
It was not normal for such a woman to call him at a time like this.
“yes. “Now, our Triad is facing an unprecedented crisis.”
“It’s a crisis. Has America made a move? Or Russia?”
This is an organization supported by China, which is aiming for hegemony in Asia.
It was natural that the names of several great powers naturally came up.
Pinguer shook his head.
“Taehyun Kim. “I am a player of New Korea.”
Tsai Mingmin had a bewildered expression on his face as he heard those words spoken so calmly.
“Currently, we have made contact with Japan’s Samrodu, Lord Xu.”
“What are you saying.”
“He probably made a similar request. Just like I’m doing to Tsai Mingmin.”
“Just the main point. briefly.”
Tsai Mingmin scolded her in a commanding tone.
“Is there just one more thing for the rich to worry about? “I would like to ask Tsai Ming-min to remove Kim Tae-hyun.”
“What is the price?”
The national power level has too much power to be driven by personal emotions.
Therefore, it was natural to ask for a price that would benefit the national interest.
Pinguer smiled charmingly in response to Chai Mingmin’s quick question.
“I recently acquired a legendary item from the Triad.”
“what?!!”
Tsai Mingmin’s reaction to the word legendary grade was no different from Xu Xin’s.
Samrodu’s method of coaxing them too.
“It is currently stored overseas. Tetsu will also use that item as bait to get Xushin’s cooperation. “From the Triad’s perspective, it is not a situation where they can shout loudly because they are dealing with a common enemy with common property.”
“joy. Even though he had those items, he never contacted me. “It’s only now that I ask for help.”
Seeing Cai Mingmin’s sharp appearance, Pinguer gently placed his hand on his chest.
No matter how much of a national force he is, in the end he is still a man.
In that respect, Pinguer had a talent similar to that of a saint.
Treating men according to one’s will.
“Mr. Chai Mingmin. I entrusted my future to you, not Zhang Linfeng or Xu Xin. “Please understand that I have no choice but to make such a choice in the position of Samrodu.”
Pinguer’s lips covered Tsai Mingmin’s lips.
A sweet time followed.
“…Specially this time. “I will turn a blind eye to you.”
“thank you.”
Pinguer smiled and hugged Cai Mingmin’s chest.
“But if that incredibly powerful god had moved first, that guy named Kim Tae-hyun would have been as good as dead already.”
Xu Xin, a man of great strength.
Because Tsai Mingmin knows the power he has better than anyone else.
Taehyun’s death seemed inevitable.
