Genius Archer Streaming Season 4 Episode 17
6. Ace in the Hole(2)
There is a saying:
Two are better than one.
Unfortunately, this is often not true.
Anyone who has ever played doubles will know.
That in some cases, it’s better to be alone.
Almond knew this well.
‘That’s right. We had a huge fight.’
When I was staying at the athletes’ village, the people who fought the most were not the 11-person soccer players or the taekwondo players competing against each other.
They are racket doubles sports players.
As is always the case in this category, the thing we fought about the most back when Sang-Hyeon was around was badminton.
“Ahhhhh! Lee Sang-cheol! You just switch the subject with Yoo Sang-hyun!”
“Wh, what! Am I being a jerk right now?”
“No, the paths are crossed!?”
A doubles sport where players share the same court and must quickly receive balls fired from the opposing team.
The problem here wasn’t always that the enemy was shooting too well.
The difficulty of having to judge who will receive it and who will not just by listening to each other’s breathing.
This was the barrier to entry for doubles sports.
‘Let’s make up our minds.’
Almond recalled that time and made up his mind.
Getting players to work together is also a barrier.
The wall in front of Almond is almost like a mountain!
‘The opponent is bubble gum.’
Even Almond, who had been through a lot, couldn’t help but be nervous.
gulp.
He swallows dryly and looks at the phrase that came to mind.
[You can’t defeat the monsters alone! Defeat them together!]
-Religious unification lol
-It’s something like this lol
-Hey
-Why can’t you do it alone??
Next comes a description of the weapon.
[Weapon Usage: Drop]
[The Shaman can detect evil spirits first and make them visible to the team with a drop.]
Guidance on the role is provided.
Perhaps because it was a tutorial, the game was quite friendly.
‘I already did this.’
The shaman’s first role has already ended.
Then comes the role.
This seems to vary depending on the weapon.
[Weapon Utilization: Amulet]
[You can temporarily paralyze an enemy, or completely banish an evil spirit by attaching a talisman to its weak point.]
A shaman has two weapons.
Drops and amulets.
What about the monk then?
“Mondya!”
“?”
Almond turned around at Bubblegum’s shout and spit flew out.
Phew!
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Much kekekekeke
-Haha
-What??ㅋㅋㅋ
-Iron ball lol
He had gone bald.
“Ah… … Only ‘ㅋㅋㅋ’ comes up in the chat window right now? Huh?”
Bubblegum grumbled as he noticed Almond’s expression.
“I know how you feel about tacos.”
-Suddenly the taco seat… …
-No, I’m talking about the real thing lol
-Bubble gum personality controversy ㄷㄷ
“Anyway, I have to CC this and tank it.”
The monk’s weapons are as follows:
[Weapon Usage: Moktak]
[If you strike the moktak in rhythm, your defense will increase and you can create a force field in the desired space to block attacks.]
A wooden gong that blocks projectiles and a rosary that binds enemies.
[Weapon Utilization: Rosary]

[Throw the prayer beads to capture an evil spirit. The evil spirit cannot move or attack for a while. The monster is destroyed.]
-Oh, of all people, a tank lol
-No, but bubble gum plays such an important role?
-But since there’s only one, wouldn’t it just be Almond alone?
-Everyone is already excluding bubble gum from their strategies… …
-If only the priestess’ bow had been there, Almond would have just broken.
In the chat room, a heated discussion was already underway on how to beat the game without bubble gum.
“Krrrrrr.”
Meanwhile, the ideology took full form.
Its snout sticks out like a wolf, its eyes glow with a fierce light, and blades stand out on the sides of its arms.
Sreung!
Besides, the bastard’s arms were long enough to drag on the ground.
I quickly stretched my arm from the senior citizen’s seat to the middle seat.
“Kuaaaah!”
Swish!
A demon’s hand extends in an instant.
“Mom, Mondya! Here we come!”
Avoiding this on a subway train that was tilted at a 45 degree angle wasn’t easy.
Bubblegum, who had let go of Almond’s hand, rolled down further and fell further, and Almond avoided it by sticking behind the horizontal bar at the end of the seat.
Kaga River!!
Blades slash through the subway passages.
“……oh.”
Almond is impressed by the attack, which is more dynamic than expected.
Now it’s our turn to counterattack.
“Okay. Hyung. Me… … Huh?”
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Where the f*ck did you go?
-No, what is it? lol
The bubble gum was hanging quite low.
“Oh, no, I rolled over!”
This subway car is currently tilting, so if you let go even a little bit, it will slide down.
Bubblegum must have let go of his hands for a little while.
“Can’t you fly the rosary beads?”
“I’m going to fly… … Aaaah!”
The ideological attack was fired again.
He tore through the subway passages, his arms bouncing like a tangled jump rope.
Kagagagagaga river!
The sparks of grinding iron fly fiercely.
“phew.”
Bubblegum peeks his head out again, slightly relieved.
“Throw it?”
“Don’t say anything, just throw it.”
-LOL
– Annoying lol
-Almond, are you mad already? Lol
-Ugh lol
-I’m going crazy trying to do bubble gum with the national team~
-F*ck lol
Even if it was a tutorial, if it were explained and thrown out like that, I would have already been beaten to death.
“Put the pressure down!”
Anyway, the rosary was thrown away.
Dismissed!
It flies in a straight line with a lightning effect.
Almond takes the talisman out of the talisman box.
‘It looks like you’re going to throw the prayer beads first and then I’ll put the talisman on.’
Almond has already played several games, so he knows how to read the developers’ intentions.
The developer’s intention is to have you hit the target by throwing prayer beads and talismans.
because?
The amulet has a set number of parts that must be matched.
It’s as if there was a weakness that Reina had to hit.
So, it is relatively difficult to just guess.
‘Of course, it’s just a tutorial right now, so it’s easy, but it’ll probably get harder later on.’
Almond, who even made such predictions.
He was proud of himself.
‘As expected, Amondoyle is a strategist.’
Almond predicted the developer’s intentions and the future like this.
Since it was an advertisement, he tried to practice drawing the way the developer wanted.
But─
“?”
──Empty.
The prayer beads hit the subway pole and fall down helplessly.
“oh.”
-Eh?
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-If you get it right the first time, it’s not bubble gum~
-What do you think the legendary 3 magazine 0 kill is?
“Ah. All, throw it again!”
“Don’t say anything, just throw it~”
“Okay, I’ll just throw it without saying anything!”
-Hahahahahahahahahahaha
-lol
-Fantastic duo lol
-This is it lol
-Wow
Second attempt.
The prayer beads flew on a much better trajectory than before.
‘Okay. Okay─’
But isn’t even luck on Bubblegum’s side?
Squeak!
The subway is tilted further.
“Huh, huh, huh?!”
The subway incline, which used to be 45 degrees, has now become just 90 degrees.
In the process, the prayer beads bounce off the floor and fly away.
-omg
-what is this
-ㅁㅊ I guess the real part starts here
-They’re fighting up and down.
“Gyaaaaaaah!”
“Hey, what the hell! Come on, it’s falling! Come on!”
A train car that is completely vertical.
Almond hung from the seat like a horizontal bar, and the bubble gum fell right off the end.
“Ugh!”
He drops countless people into his bed.
On the other hand, the ideology still stood in the same place.
His legs were also sharp as blades, and he could walk with them planted on the ground.
But─
‘uh.’
Almonds sparkle in the eyes.
The thought form seemed to be holding its position without any problems, but Almond saw it differently.
At some point, the thought body sways to regain balance, and at that time, the central point is revealed on this side.
A red aiming point was drawn on Jeongsu-ri.
In other words, it was a place where you could just stick a talisman on.
wickedness!
He bounced off the bar, flying and throwing the talisman.
Dismissed!
The talisman opened up in the air and flew straight in a straight line.
-Oh oh!
-and
-Kill it ㄷㄷ
An amulet that leads straight to Jeongsu-ri.
But─
“?”
──Whaaak!
He swung his arm and tore the amulet flying away.
‘Eh.’
thud.
Almond, who had been flying, catches the pole again from the seat across from him.
It just fell down one space.
‘Every time you throw it, it’s a big risk.’
The amulet always flies in a straight line, so you have to throw yourself into the hallway to create an angle to hit it.
But the talisman I just threw was torn apart by that bastard.
‘what.’
I didn’t understand how they tore the talisman apart.
‘again.’
Almond climbs up the pole again, grabs the talisman, and throws it.
Chomp!
As expected, it’s torn.
Almond’s eyes twitch.
‘Huh? The movements are strange.’
It feels like the game’s physics laws are strangely ignored.
[Mr. J Moon-ga donated 10,000 won!]
[Is this just an automatic response?]
‘ah.’
It’s automatic parrying.
Since it unconditionally forces parrying through reflection, it even ignores the laws of physics.
‘Is it cooperation after all?’
It seems that the monk must tie the bastard up with a prayer bead to prevent him from attacking in order to use the talisman.
-Automatic parrying ㄷㄷ
-Cooperation is forced.
-Bubble gum needs to come up
-This is a tutorial, so if you just throw the prayer beads well, it’s actually really easyㅋㅋㅋㅋ
“I guess I should throw the rosary beads first.”
As Almond mutters, someone offers this support.
Tiring.
[Heumgeujeongdunga donated 5,000 won.]
[But the prayer beads don’t bounce?]
“Uh… … That’s right. You have to try it to know.”
Almond’s gaze turns to Bubblegum.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Really lol
-There’s a hint of pity in those almond eyes lol
-How did you do that? Hahaha I didn’t throw it
-Can the rosary be captured the moment it touches you?
As the viewer guessed, the rosary may work.
The problem is that there is no environment in which the bubble gum can be thrown.
‘I don’t think it will work.’
The train continues to steepen, and the gumball is still crawling up from underneath.
“Kk… … Mondya! Go first! Go first!”
-lol
-Oh my gosh lol
-No lol what are you going to do first you idiot
-Are you telling me to go to the afterlife?
Almond turns his gaze upward again.
‘What would happen if a monster came near?’
The monster continues to swing its sword with its elongated arms while maintaining its maximum distance.
The pattern is simple, but difficult to approach.
If you come close, you can just take the talisman and stick it on yourself, but I think the pattern was made like this to prevent that.
“I think I should get closer… … If I go, I might get cut?”
-Yeah, there seems to be a way.
-I told you to cooperate lol
-I’m just ignoring the request to cooperate like a dog lol
Almond thinks for a moment.
“I guess I’ll have to come up with a strategy.”
In the past, I would have just taken it upon myself to solve the problem.
He was different now, having risen to the top in the world in national competitions and strategy games RTS.
“Cookie Brother said, the answer is what the enemy least wants.”
-oh
-Can you show me Amond Doyle?
-Take it out! Cookie’s collection of quotes!
-This is so ominous lol
Almond’s eyes looked around, then suddenly flashed.
“That’s why. You have to get closer.”
In fact, the process just became a bit more complicated.
The result feels the same.
-?
-Amonda, your judgment is just slow lol
-F*ck lol
-What is this lol
* * *
“Hahaha. Is this a classic in a tutorial?”
“I told you, it’s no use if one person does it well. Choosing bubble gum was the absolute best choice!”
“Yeah. I think I can break this if I do better than Bubble Gum. I think there will be a lot of game purchases. And the ads will last a long time!”
The tutorial was actually pretty easy to break if the two were properly combined.
“What if a monk can’t use a stationmaster?”
It’s especially easy if there’s a monk.
The monk must first get as close as possible and create a field with his moktak.
Instead of using the force field to protect themselves, they use it to surround their ideology.
Then, all of the bastard’s attacks will be stopped for about a turn.
In the meantime, throw a prayer bead to capture it, and the shaman just throws a talisman directly at the head of the body.
“It seems like the monk has a lot of work to do.”
“Not only are you not using the stationmaster to wrap your ideology around it, you’re not even using the stationmaster right now.”
“You can go up by riding the stationmaster.”
The two of them laugh heartily.
-Bad thud.
-Ah, this is really annoying
-Use the stationmaster.
-Look at the chat, bald guy lol
-Stationmaster, can someone sponsor me?
In the bubble gum chat room, the chat was being flooded with training experts who couldn’t hold it in any longer and were bursting out.
“If it’s like this in the tutorial… … it’s already over the average clear time.”
I was a little worried when Almond said he was joining.
There is a famous quote on the reel:
One hole is bigger than four aces.
Now I’m telling you that quote is true again.
From the tutorial, we are already approaching the average clear time of the testers.
Even with not four aces, but one ace and a hole, what a loss!
But the next moment, the almonds start to move.
“Huh? Wait a minute? What is that!?”
“Huh? You’re just going to approach me like that?!”
The two of them got up from their seats without realizing it because of the sudden situation.
-This?
-omg
-Kyunwoochi ㄷㄷ
-thief
-Wow lol
-What is this??
-Your Majesty, use magic~
