Chapter 491 Changing Incheon (4)
The neutrality of the promotion test site is guaranteed.
Even though it belongs to the central government, it does not allow outside intervention as it is a group that manages ratings that are used around the world.
It’s all in the realm of common sense. When Moon Tae-joon’s order was given, the promotion test center assigned opponents under his direct jurisdiction at a level that did not cause problems.
Seungcheol Go.
That was the case too.
Known for his skills in Class B, he dealt with Park Chul-min, a member of the direct control unit.
‘I told you to kill them for sure.’
Opponent is grade C.
To be honest, I was satisfied.
On this floor, Park Cheol-min is considered a good enough person, but the standard for evaluating strength has always been relative.
A C-rank Hunter against yourself? It’s an opponent that can be finished in 10 seconds with stupid words.
If you had prepared for the B grade screening, you would have confidence in yourself, but it was clear that the area of that confidence would also barely cross the threshold of B grade.
“I will prepare.”
got on stage
There was no guilt.
Since the central government ordered it, as a person living in Korea, I could not go against the trend.
‘Let’s play with him moderately so that there won’t be any problems later, then kill him.’
Palak.
“start.”
signal dropped.
Ko Seung-chul rushed right in.
At first, he did not show his full strength and tried to create a fierce picture while accepting Park Chul-min’s attacks in moderation.
That way, even if a problem was raised, there was something to be said for it.
The excuse that the opponent was so intense that he had no choice but to ‘murder’ by mistake while fighting against him.
however.
Caang!
Kakakakakang!
‘what?!’
Ko Seung-cheol widened his eyes.
I tried to attack with the thought of accepting it in moderation, but the counterattack that came back was suffocating.
Each of Park Chul-min’s attacks pierced sharply.
It took less than 10 seconds for his complacent mindset to become tense, and at some point Ko Seung-cheol had to do everything in his power to block the attack.
pod.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The attack passed by.
I was out of breath.
Even when he poured high-level skills, Park Cheol-min did not waver, and even though he did not seem to be using any special skills, Park Chul-min’s attack came in threateningly.
Ko Seung-cheol did not know the truth. Sura Sword and Sura Simbeop are different forms from skills.
It was a method of controlling all of the series of attacks on the opponent, and when they pushed him like that, Ko Seung-cheol, who was accustomed to fighting in the form of exchanging skills, had no choice but to be pushed back.
fierce battle.
Ko Seung-chul, who fought with all his might, lost his sword as his arm bounced.
chuck.
“Looks like it’s over.”
A sword pointed at his neck.
Go Seung-chul had no choice but to admit the reality at Park Chul-min’s calm expression.
“… I concede defeat.”
Only then did I know
direct jurisdiction.
Their promotion support wasn’t out of the blue.
* * *
The same phenomenon as Park Chul-min happened simultaneously.
Exam waiting room.
People seemed to be agitated by the letters floating on the huge screen.
[Grade C, Cheol-min Park succeeded in being promoted to Grade B]
[Grade D, Ko Yo-hwan succeeded in being promoted to Grade C]
[Grade C, Chan-ki Min succeeded in being promoted to Grade B]
.
.
.
The news of the success of the promotion poured in.
It was unusual.
Usually, the promotion screening is a difficult gateway to the extent that only 2-3 people succeed when 10 people try.
However, when the news of the simultaneous success was delivered, the people in the waiting room started to get upset.
buzz buzz.
“This crazy.”
“Were the hunters from the Incheon government this strong?”
“Not a single one of them will fail?”
Just now.
Rumors spread about the actions of the unit under direct control.
As the Incheon government moved in earnest, people showed interest in what results the hunters in Incheon, who were treated as loners in Korea, would receive.
For that reason, everyone was staring at the screen.
According to common sense, I expected most of them to drop out, but the information that popped up on the screen contradicted common sense.
succession of successes.
It was shocking.
In particular, those who knew the internal affairs well knew what that meant at once.
“… Are things going well? you know Those who are stamped by the central government are unfairly assigned to the level of ability when taking the promotion test. Investigator Moon Tae-joon, who had a bad temper, would have given special instructions, but now the Incheon government is overcoming such a handicap and passing them all.”
“Then it means that you are more than just a successful promotion.”
“yes. Besides, there are a whopping 30 people.”
conversation between the two.
He pricked up people’s ears.
Incheon was turning the tide.
Incheon, which was expected to collapse, responded head-on to the central government with an unconventional move.
then.
People’s attention was focused on one place.
“What if even Lee Tae-seong succeeds?”
could be asserted
Grade A.
Its meaning is special.
A man who got people’s attention spoke as if everyone was listening.
“The situation in Incheon will change. Following Roman Dmitri, the new A-ranked person must mean that they have the strongest power among local governments.”
* * *
That time.
Lee Tae-seong was conducting a promotion test.
The first time he heard the opponent’s name, he realized what kind of trick Moon Tae-joon was playing.
‘Jo Min-woo, an A-rank hunter. To think that a master so-called Chang-gwi (槍鬼) barely showed up to watch the A-level screening.’
Jo Min-woo was a famous talent.
A whopping 10 years ago.
In the 4th cataclysm, he showed off his spirited spearmanship, and a few years later he was promoted to Class A and was nicknamed the Spearman.
He was an unsuitable person for such a promotion screening position.
Usually, people at the lower level are in charge of the promotion evaluation, but Jo Min-woo was a high-ranking person that Lee Tae-seong could not handle.
if it was a month ago.
I wouldn’t even dare to fight.
However, now that he faced Jo Min-woo, Lee Tae-seong showed a completely different appearance than everyone expected.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
“Keugh.”
Jo Min-woo was pushed all the way.
The moment he looked ahead with a frown, Lee Tae-seong came in front of him and savagely attacked him.
Caang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The attacks continued uninterruptedly.
Lee Tae-seong, who uses twin swords, pushed the attacks to interlock with each other, and even if one was blocked, the other attacked, and Jo Min-woo felt his head spin.
Jo Min-woo’s expression stained with embarrassment. Lee Tae-seong shuddered at the fact that he was pushing an A-class hunter like this.
‘Roman Dmitry. He is a different dimension. Only that can explain the rapid growth of the direct jurisdiction.’
last month.
Kang Min-ho’s teachings were shocking.
The Surah Sword and Surah Simbeop, which Roman Dmitri said was given without any cost, were tremendous skills that completely shook Lee Tae-seong’s foundation. Lee Tae-seong learned Sura simbeop and controlled mana in just a few hours. When I manifested it as an aura and performed a sura swordsmanship rather than a skill, I was convinced that I could become stronger with the explosive power from the twin swords.
from then.
Blindly believed Roman Dmitry.
At first, there were doubts about his existence, but he was too special to target Incheon.
It was fortunate.
That such an existence liked Incheon.
The fact that Mayor Kim Jun-hyeok swore allegiance to Roman Dmitri.
I was immersed in training.
Lee Tae-seong and all members of the direct control team were convinced that they could become stronger, and for a month, except for sleeping time, they did not take a single step out of the training ground.
The current force was the price.
No matter how hard you try, it is impossible to become as strong as this, but Roman Dmitri’s teachings have broken down the realm of the impossible.
pod.
Blood spattered.
The scar on Jo Min-woo’s face distorted his expression.
“This bastard.”
I tried my best to be patient.
The superiors told him to kill him by pretending to be a mistake as much as possible, but Lee Tae-seong was not a person who could be dealt with halfway.
Jo Min-woo’s expression changed.
It will be different from now on.
“I promise. You will not die gracefully.”
Return (鬼行).
He manifested the skill that made him an A-class.
* * *
Sure.
Papapat.
has disappeared.
Jo Min-woo suddenly dug into Lee Tae-sung’s blind spot, and before he could react, he extended his spear like lightning.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
It was a huge shock.
Lee Tae-seong blocked the attack with a narrow gap, but Jo Min-woo continued to use the return and dug into Lee Tae-sung’s blind spots.
Quaang!
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
Window Jo Min-woo.
Starting with A-rank hunters, each has its own weapon.
Their reputation was not in vain, and they were able to secure the A-class qualification because they had skills that were recognized by everyone.
The area of A grade had such a meaning.
Monsters to the extent that each individual is called a one-man army. No matter how much Lee Tae-sung has developed, Jo Min-woo was an A-grade existence several years ago.
Flash.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
It pushed Lee Tae-seong.
He did not hide his intent to kill.
Excluding the main purpose of testing, Jo Min-woo openly revealed his intention to kill Lee Tae-seong.
pod.
“Keugh.”
The forearm was cut.
Lee Tae-sung’s whole body was stained with blood from Cho Min-woo’s continuous attacks, and even Lee Tae-seong, who had trained in Sura swordsmanship and Sura simbeop, could not completely block Jo Min-woo’s attacks.
Fighting is not determined by numbers.
No matter how much skill he learned, he couldn’t shorten the gap with Jo Min-woo, an A-rank hunter, all at once.
‘Damn it.’
Lee Tae-sung’s stomach burned.
If you lose like this.
The direct control will be disintegrated.
that couldn’t be allowed.
In this chaotic world, in order for Kim Jun-hyeok to achieve what he wanted, the existence of a direct control unit was absolutely necessary.
Quaang.
Kwak Kwah Kwak Kwak!
The attack rolled in.
Jo Min-woo’s spear took over all directions.
fast.
gritted it
As long as the opponent openly revealed their intent to kill, he knew that he could never win without risking his own life.
‘I see the game in one stroke.’
an imminent situation.
Lee Tae-sung’s eyes calmed down.
Some called Lee Tae-seong a genius.
Neither the successors nor the chosen ones had a special background, but they secured a B grade on their own.
then.
What will happen if he learns the Sura simbeop and the Sura swordsmanship?
It is a skill that made even the average Kang Min-ho a C-grade.
Lee Tae-seong practiced not just simple training for a month, but also melting new skills into his skills.
picked up two swords.
waited for the time
When the opponent approached, Lee Tae-seong momentarily dug into the space and drew both swords at the same time.
‘Sura Swordsmanship (拔劍).’
Flash.
space is divided
Jo Min-woo’s expression filled with murderous intent was stained with shock.
Pooh.
Blood gushing out like a fountain.
Jo Min-woo’s head flew off.
* * *
Squeak.
The door to the forge opened.
Smoke billowed from inside, and Roman Dmitri breathed in the air with his upper body exposed.
“You worked hard.”
It was Kim Jun-hyeok.
He was surprised to see Roman Dmitri’s torso.
The upper body, reddened by the hard work, was made of dense and dense muscles that made it impossible to believe that it was a human body.
Roman Dmitry asked calmly while putting on the outerwear Kim Jun-hyeok handed over.
“Has anything happened in the meantime?”
“… We have a problem.”
Just now.
A piece of news hit the Incheon government.
Kim Jun-hyeok went to the forge first because it was the time Roman Dmitry had predicted while summoning troops right away.
Joonhyuk Kim said.
“In order to fulfill the promise I made with Roman Dmitri, 30 members of my direct control, including Captain Lee Tae-seong, applied for the promotion test. However, it seems that investigator Moon Tae-joon played a trick. As you know, the death of an A-rank hunter is an issue that cannot be overlooked. Currently, all promotion tests have been suspended, and Lee Tae-seong is being taken away under the control of the central government on the charge of intentionally killing him.”
Jo Min-woo’s death.
It must have been unexpected for Moon Tae-joon.
Losing Jo Min-woo was a huge loss, so they had to pay the price.
So I dragged Lee Tae-seong with me.
Even if he didn’t, I couldn’t leave him alone because he belonged to the Incheon government, which rebelled against the central government.
Roman Dmitri, however, reacted indifferently.
“Does this mean that all my subordinates have passed my test?”
“… That’s right.”
“Guide me to Seoul.”
walked first.
Kim Jun-hyeok, unable to hide his bewilderment, heard the ensuing voice.
“Your direct command is now my person. From now on, it is my turn to fulfill my promise to them.”
Moment.
I got goosebumps.
I don’t know why, but his calm voice made the problem seem non-issue.
Junhyeok Kim followed and shouted.
“Okay. Let me guide you.”
will head to Seoul.
The place called the capital to the people of Korea is the place known as the enemy camp to the people of Incheon.
I wasn’t so afraid now.
