Artifact-Devouring Player Chapter 150

150
‘Well… … . I find it funny that I have such thoughts.’

After finishing her conversation with Kim Yun-cheol, Shin Tae-ri turned her steps in a different direction from home.

Rather than deciding on a destination, it was to call someone. It was to Sang-Hyeon.

She also trained a lot during that time.

I’ve acquired quite a few useful skills, and I’ve also made progress on many of the skills. It’s definitely changed.

Usually when you think of low level players, you start to think about how to take them down.

When I think of Sang-Hyeon, I wonder how he will respond by taking advantage of my weaknesses.

I’m more interested in Sang-Hyeon’s clever counterattacks and responses.

She had already figured out her own weaknesses by sharing the numbers with Sang-Hyeon and Soo.

Sang-Hyeon was a really good opponent and a capable player who gave me an opportunity to reflect on myself.

I was scared when I heard the connection sound.

Sang-Hyeon’s voice was heard.

“Is the call okay?”

Her voice was low.

I was happy because the call was connected right away, but I didn’t want to show my excitement.

“I enjoyed watching the broadcast today. It was really cool. I’m really jealous of the player who received the Sword Master’s approval.”

“Is humility a habit?”

Sang-Hyeon was acting cute.

It was also a habit that had been carried over from a previous life. It felt awkward to show off so openly.

“These days, it’s dungeon, training, dungeon, training. I just keep repeating it. I don’t want to create even a single gap.”

“Personally, I think so… … but there are tests that must be done to be sure.”

Sang-Hyeon, who read the hidden meaning in her words, got up from the comfortable position he had been lying on the bed.

“I’ve reviewed countless times the numbers I’ve tried last time. Now I want to review them.”

“I think it would be understandable if it was verified through Sang-Hyeon. Jin-Ho oppa often does it on purpose.”

“There’s a private training center nearby. I’ll pick you up by car. It would be nice if we could go together.”

“sure.”

Another duel has come to fruition.

Shin Tae-ri felt that she had grown once more through Sang-hyun, although Sang-hyun himself did not know.

So this time, the sparring had the same meaning. If there is something lacking, it can be filled in, and if it is perfect, it is satisfying.

Besides, I think it’s because Sang-Hyeon is a player acknowledged by Do Kyung-Soo…

I was secretly trembling.

I’m really curious to see how they’ll exploit the gap and sabotage it this time. I can’t even guess.

“I was greatly stimulated by Mr. Sang-Hyeon Misodo. I didn’t know it would burn so black.”

Kim Mi-so, who was undergoing extreme training overseas, was sunburned all over her body and had a natural tan.

According to local reports, he has begun correcting bad habits and improving his overall posture.

Since we invite only the best players from overseas and provide one-on-one lessons, the results are certain.

“The charm of a smile is that kind of persistence and effort. If you keep working hard like you are now, you will grow to the next level.”

A small ball shot by Sang-Hyeon!

Thanks to this, Kim Mi-so’s growth, which had been stagnant, is once again receiving explosive momentum.

And Shin Tae-ri herself was also becoming more complete due to the changes that began with Sang-hyeon’s stimulation.

“I won’t get scammed this time.”

Shin Tae-ri clenched her fist.

A draw is tantamount to defeat.

This time, I didn’t want to end my fight with Sang-Hyeon in a draw.

* * *

“This is your personal training facility?”

“Yes. It did cost some money.”

“I would believe you if you said this was a guild training ground. I didn’t know there were so many training facilities.”

“I live here on weekends. It’s a great place to train alone.”

“Can I borrow this too?”

“I don’t know about other guests, but especially Sang-Hyeon… … .”

Shin Tae-ri nodded, looking away as if she was indifferent.

Sang-Hyeon’s eyes widened as he looked at the training ground. It was a facility that must have cost at least several hundred billion won.

The entire training ground was densely packed with magic stones, and a defensive barrier was activated through them.

In order to cover an entire area of ​​this size with a defensive barrier, a construction project costing 10 billion won was a given.

If you add in combat dummies and concentrated recovery facilities, the estimated cost seems to be about right.

Even combat dummies were more expensive because they were mobile and mobile dummies.

“If you just let me know the hourly rate later, I’ll use it wisely on a rainy day.”

“Okay. If it rains, you can come and train comfortably. I didn’t build it to make money. Okay, let’s get ready right away.”

Seeing Shin Tae-ri urging me on, my body felt like it was already heating up.

Sang-Hyeon also moved immediately. Well, I didn’t come here to date or chat.

* * *

The setup was done in an instant.

The rules were simple from the beginning.

To prevent accidents, it was the same as before to wear practice weapons and appropriate protective gear.

The only difference from before was that the weapon was coated with special ink.

The special ink’s role is to leave a mark when you use a weapon to hit an opponent’s vital spot.

Because if it were a real fight, it would be a position where you would die or get injured.

This time, the number of moves increased and Sang-Hyeon’s goal was to survive a total of 10 moves.

It was Shin Tae-ri’s request, as she thought that a few people wouldn’t be able to exploit Sang-Hyeon’s weaknesses.

‘Tailwind. Just right.’

‘It’s a perfect fit for hiding your presence because it’s a headwind. Let’s see how much you’ve changed, Shin Sang-hyun.’

They were two people with different dreams about the same situation.

Since the conditions were satisfactory to both parties, they didn’t even want to change seats.

Two people standing in place.

Sang-Hyeon had his center of gravity slightly higher, while Shin-Tae-Ri had her body completely lowered.

The thinking is different from the first moment.

Flutter! Flutter!

The collar flapped in the wind.

This is just the right amount of cool wind to activate wind stealth.

Tata tatata!

The one who started was Sang-Hyeon.

As I used my acceleration skills while riding the tailwind, I began to gradually heighten the atmosphere.

However, I didn’t approach Shin Tae-ri. Her response was obvious anyway.

‘What would be familiar to the assassination world? It’s hiding.’

A predictable repertoire.

It is also a repertoire that is known to happen but still endured.

If there was an easy way to destroy the Assassin’s hideout, their livelihood would have been cut off long ago.

But since there is absolute stealth that counters the ability to detect stealth, it always becomes a game of rock-paper-scissors.

As expected.

Pfft!

Shin Tae-ri has disappeared.

however.

‘… … ?’

It wasn’t a simple hiding.

He created several illusions while in hiding. These illusions were also detectable by living organisms.

‘A covert version of fantasy mediation?’

That’s exactly it.

The characteristic of fantasy mediation is that it causes confusion because it is judged as real in fantasy detection.

It seemed that Shin Tae-ri’s shadow walk had also been upgraded.

The skill level 5 would have been reached long ago, so it’s probably at level 10 or 15.

For Sang-Hyeon now, skill levels 10 and 15 are a story from a world far away.

Because as long as there are no variables in this part, time is the answer.

Even though he had regressed, it was also regrettable that Sang-Hyeon could not help but be a latecomer.

one side.

‘Who would think it’s me, Shin Sang-hyun?’

Shin Tae-ri, who separated the body and illusion into six branches, smiled in satisfaction. It was the result of painstaking effort.

I also unconsciously tried to correct my body’s natural movements rather than the illusions by cutting blood.

Rather, the movement of the stealth illusion has been refined to be more natural, so that it can be used as a deliberate deceptive tactic.

Sang-Hyeon’s movements became more hectic.

Perhaps, since he couldn’t figure out what the real thing was, he was trying to buy time by using his mobility to investigate. Buying time is easier said than done, but it was possible for Sang-Hyeon, who had sufficient response capabilities.

But right then.

Paat-!

“uh?”

Shin Tae-ri, who rarely lets out a gasp, was startled when she saw Sang-hyeon disappear.

Activation of Wind Stealth.

An unexpected situation was created where neither party could pinpoint the other’s location at all!

A moment that can never be created unless two assassin players fight.

But Sang-Hyeon now has the skill to enter a state of definite ‘absolute hiding’!

‘It’s not perfect.’

But in the meantime, Shin Tae-ri’s keen senses caught the subtle changes in the atmosphere.

Although Sang-Hyeon was hidden in the darkness, his presence was clearly felt.

‘Over there!’

Shin Tae-ri threw the practice dagger that she had prepared in advance after consulting with Sang-hyeon.

It was clear that the place where Sang-Hyeon was was in a certain location. My heightened senses were pointing to that.

but.

Wheeing!

The practice dagger flew through the air for a long time without any results. Was there another deception?

Right then.

Pot!

Shin Tae-ri was greeted by a sight scarier than a horror movie. Sang-hyun appeared right in front of her!

‘……how?’

It was a natural reaction for Shin Tae-ri, who did not know about the highly useful isolation skill called Another World.

That means.

The exact location where Sang-Hyeon was just now was correct, but it means that he perfectly dodged the dagger.

“Huh… … !”

Shin Tae-ri immediately did a back tumble. If a greatsword attack comes from the front, the vital points are in danger.

‘Take a half beat.’

『Rising Current』

Sang-Hyeon blew an upward air current that he had timed.

It was a timing shot aimed at the moment before the backward movement using the back tumbling was completed.

‘The biggest weakness of the backward movement skill is right before the body finishes moving. That’s when the vision is the most blurred.’

Since Sang-Hyeon had the backward movement skill called Backstep, he knew the weakness better.

Unless you have ‘absolute invincibility’ in your options, every skill is bound to have a loophole.

As expected.

“ah!”

The rising air current passed by Shin Tae-ri’s feet, who had only just taken the last step.

It was a wind blowing low from the beginning, and the gamble was successful.

『Brave Charge』

It was a perfect situation to use the rush skill, so Sang-Hyeon charged straight in.

This attack was fatal for Shin Tae-ri, who had already lost her balance and was slightly floating.

Thanks to skill resistance, the airborne effect was limited, but the problem was that a gap was exposed!

The next moment.

Kuung!

A heavy clash of sounds erupted between Sang-Hyeon and Shin-Tae-Ri.

If they had collided without any defensive action, it would have been a devastating head-on collision that would have caused significant damage to the body.

That’s right.

The two who took on this match were sincere from the beginning.
