Episode 203 New Technology
[Daesurim]. Basically, it was classified as a map with many variables.
There are ruins in Daesurim where relics are concentrated and buried, but in fact, the bigger variable is the flora and fauna of Daesurim.
It may seem very unusual to encounter neutral monsters on other maps and have variables in plants and animals, but that is not the case.
In a forest, basically everything is big.
Just think about how huge things in reality are.
For example, if a maple seed were really big, you could paraglide on it. And it goes without saying that things like Venus flytraps and sticky spatulas are big.
‘The problem is that there are so many plants that can be used for so many different things, rather than just attacking them. It’s like using mana equipment.’
If you have the knowledge, you can use the surrounding plants to fly and escape, attack your opponents, or trap them, depending on the situation.
To those who don’t know, each and every one of them is a trap and a hindrance.
Given that significant difference, it was only natural that the pros and cons would be extremely divided.
‘You may need to consider the worst case scenario.’
The hand holding the weapon tightened its grip.
“So everyone, is the merge situation okay?”
“Oh. Aside from that overpowering plant earlier, everything else is fine.”
“Ah… … Me too. Something like a huge insect came at me and I tied it up with [Bindings]… … .”
Fortunately, it didn’t seem like they were in any great danger, perhaps because it wasn’t a combat situation.
Well, since hunters are superhumans, it’s normal for insects and plants, no matter how special they are, not to be fatal.
So now the most important thing was to win.
I will open a [dimensional gate] so that I can raid.
Did it work as soon as I thought about it? I got a call from Lee Gil-han right away.
“Now we’re in front of where the other side is expected to meet up.”
Because I told Lee Gil-han to tell me when he got close to the expected meeting point of the opposing team, which was about 3 kilometers away.
“But if you go and open the [Dimensional Gate] now, it seems like it would be easy to do, so why did you tell me to wait?”
Lee Gil-han asked if it was frustrating to wait.
“Opening a [dimensional gate] is most effective when the opponents are gathered in an awkward manner.”
If you open a dimensional gate and rush in when there’s only one person, you can definitely deal with them easily. However, using the most essential and destructive tactic to deal with one person is like using a slaughterhouse knife to kill a chicken.
If you use it when 7 opponents are gathered, the opponents will be flustered, but it is still a fight between equals. You will not be able to gain a strong advantage.
“So, the area that can give the opponent an advantage while also causing great damage is somewhere in between. It would be optimal when there are 3 to 5 people gathered.”
“……I see.”
While watching the opposing team’s movements to join, Lee Yeon-ju waits for Lee Gil-han’s timing to give instructions to enter…
“Changhyun… … Right now. The two of them are already gathered… … The two of them are almost there now.”
Information came in through Lee Yeon-ju’s location tracking ability.
PER had already gathered thanks to Lee Yeon-ju’s meticulous guidance order. It seemed like preparations were complete.
“We’ve been waiting for a long time, everyone. Get as close as possible to the opponent and open the dimensional gate!”
“okay!”
An order was given to Lee Gil-han.
And then Lee Gil-han started to run towards me.
Wearing sturdy armor and using the [Destructive Charge] skill.
Because once you get in, it’s a success.
However, surprisingly, an unexpected variable occurred in this situation that was thought to be smooth.
“Hey. It’s all just like the coach said. Are you ready?”
“Of course. Since it was [Daesurim], I prepared a few things.”
Even though YYG’s guys saw Lee Gil-han charging forward alone, they started to move as if they already knew PER’s strategy.
Clap clap!
When someone in the YYG camp clapped their hands, YYG’s first response tactic.
Dozens of mana-responsive interceptor devices hidden in the grass of the Great Forest began firing.
I don’t know how the system works, but it’s probably similar to Kim Yu-Hyeon’s ‘turret’, which was created by utilizing mana equipment and individual abilities.
That wasn’t all.
YYG was waiting for someone to come within striking distance, holding their weapons in high spirits.
I originally thought I could just rush through, but the opponent was surprisingly well prepared.
I couldn’t help but have an ominous feeling.
The thought that it had already been read was engraved in Lee Gil-han’s mind.
So, even though it’s still far away, I was wondering if I should open the [Dimensional Gate] here.
Perhaps it was because he read Gilhan’s hesitant expression. Lee Changhyun’s voice was heard through the earphones.
“If it doesn’t work out when you rush in, just use ‘that’!”
“okay.”
At those words, my anxious feelings disappeared, and on the other hand, my anticipation rose. It was the first match of the first PER. I thought that was where I would be able to leave the strongest impression on the viewers.

“Does the association know that you’re doing this? It’s still work time, and you’re calling me here to watch the game like this.”
“If it’s too late, tell him to come out and thank you when I’m watching Chang-Hyeon’s game.”
The office of the President of the Korean Hunters Association. Lee Geun-taek spoke to Jo Jun-ho, who was nagging him.
Life is so boring, so why not watch a game with your grandchildren? You can do it whenever you want.
“Tsk tsk… So. Do you think I’ll do well in the first match?”
“Who are our kids? Of course they’ll do well. Let’s see… … Their opponent is YYG? Last season, they did a better job than usual.”
Lee Geun-taek’s eyes stopped at one spot on the screen.
The point is, this was the roster of all team members, including the coaches and managers of each team for this game.
Among them, it seemed that the name written in YYG’s coach column was of concern.

“Lee Han-sol was here.”
“Lee Han-sol?”
“Why, don’t you remember? Back when we were almost done, there was this young, analytical guy who was sent to the scene.”
“Ah~ That guy? I didn’t see him at the association, so I thought he might be unemployed. Was he in a place like that?”
Memories of the past came flooding back vividly.
A guy whose eyes sparkled whenever he saw a tower, dungeon, or monster since he was young. A guy who was so active that he wanted to personally raise any Awakened with a good ability.
Of course, it’s not that he doesn’t have any abilities. I heard that he has the ability to assist and analyze things. In any case, it wasn’t an ability suitable for combat.
‘He was a memorable guy who was quite capable in the field… … He was there.’
I felt happy, as if I was seeing the son of a friend I hadn’t seen in a long time.
Except that he’s the coach of the opposing team to PER.
“I still think about that guy sometimes. I thought that if he had grown up a little faster towards the end, there would have been a lot fewer casualties. He’s good at figuring out how to attack monsters, and he’s also good at understanding each Hunter’s abilities and personality. Now that I think about it, he’s probably a natural fit for a coach.”
Well, I guess I have to admit it.
In the meantime, the waiting time was over and the match between PER and YYG was about to start. The map was [Daesurim].
“Oh my… … Of all maps, that’s the case. Chang-Hyeon is going to have a hard time.”
“That’s right.”
Although he didn’t enter the map as a player himself, it seemed like it would be quite a headache considering Lee Han-sol’s brilliance.
[Caster]: … … So it seems that tactical ability is important. This map has many variables and risk factors, so it seems that both teams have chosen to join for now.
[Commentator]: Ah… …! It looks like there’s a bit of a change on the PER side. It looks like they’re sending a special force to infiltrate YYG’s camp. But it’s questionable what one person can do.
Aside from the ability to charge, there aren’t any other widely known abilities!
It was a situation that seemed a bit difficult to handle. In that situation, he drove his vanguard, who only had the ability to charge, into the enemy camp all by himself.
‘It looks like they’re trying to do something fun again. But it won’t be easy because they’re against someone else.’
It was exciting to see the game turn around.
The funny thing is, they weren’t infiltrating the opposing camp, but were waiting for them to gather.
“Huh? Huh. What on earth are they thinking? It looks like they’ve recruited a new team member and brought in a new strategy.”
“Otherwise, there would be no reason to do something like that.”
So what have you prepared, Lee Chang-hyun?
It was expected.
Perhaps it was sent alone, with something on top that could inflict extremely strong damage to the opponent. Something like that?
But, did YYG anticipate such a situation?
Everything was ready to block and subdue Lee Gil-han’s charge.
[Caster]: Ahhh!! I don’t know what it is in PER, but it seems like they’ve definitely prepared some kind of strategy. If they’re going to do it, now is the time! YYG is gritting their teeth and responding!
[Commentator]: All of YYG’s mana interception countermeasure equipment is headed towards Lee Gil-han! The YYG players won’t stay still either! Even if it’s not the timing you want, if you’re any later, all of your prepared strategies could be blown away! You have to think carefully, PER!
“As expected, it’s Lee Han-sol. No, it’s Kochin now. We don’t know what it is, but it seems like Chang-hyun has obtained information about this guy.”
A perfect response, as if he had read all the numbers.
At that moment, Chairman Lee Geun-taek’s fist tightened a little as he thought that he might lose.
Just as the disposable bullets from the Mana Interception Countermeasures equipment were about to fire at Lee Gil-han.
Something amazing happened.
[Caster]: Ahhhh!! What is this? Player Lee Gil-han! He’s suddenly becoming extremely divided!
Lee Gil-han, who was thought to have only the ability to charge forward, suddenly started releasing clones when he was put in danger by YYG personnel.
What was clearly one person became two, what was two became four, what was four became eight.
It only took a moment for the clone to split to cover the front line like that.
[Commentator]: You’ve been hiding your abilities until now! What an amazing twist!
And it seemed that those clones also had mana and form, so the targets of the mana interception response equipment were instantly dispersed to match the increased number of clones.
What was originally meant to be stopped by Lee Gil-han alone was turned into a clone.
Of course, it collapsed before it could even withstand two bullets from the Mana Interception Countermeasures equipment, but it didn’t matter.
Because the clones were overwhelmingly more numerous than the opponent’s attacks.
Because even after receiving one attack, the clone still remained.
“Kekekekeke… … I didn’t know you’d prepare something like that. This is truly a surprise. Isn’t it?”
“Sure. Even if Hansol has good analytical skills, he won’t be able to respond to things that aren’t in the data.”
[Commentator]: But what’s important is what comes next! Why did he try to rush forward alone, even while spewing out so many clones?
The full extent of that tactic will be revealed!
Lee Gil-han smiled and, having gotten closer to the opposing camp, began to take something out of his bosom.
