Episode 250 New Weapon

How to subdue Haiyan?

In fact, from the moment the ‘Gem Mine’ map came out, the difficulty was really easy.

As you said, just like a tactic I usually use, I use [Piercing Eyes] to identify this mine, see through it, and exploit its weak points.

Because all I have to do is make them get buried alive.

But at the same time, one thing was clear.

The thing is, I didn’t want it.

It is true that we have been fighting like that because there was no other way until now.

Honestly, I never thought of it as a refreshing way to fight.

It’s not like you’ve completely cut off the enemy’s breath, but rather you’ve simply defeated them by setting a trap and putting them in a ‘impossible to act’ situation.

Can I really say that I proved my strength in front of players from three countries in such a match?

No. It’s not.

The audience that saw me win like that would only praise me for being smart and intelligent. They would not evaluate me as having overwhelming power.

‘… … and above all. It’s not even the method I used the most before the regression.’

So, what was your favorite method before regression?

The power when [Full Bloom] was opened. It was an overwhelming force that showed its strength without any filter.

And now. [Full Bloom]’s rank has risen to a considerable level.

I thought it would be quite possible.

The result is achieved by striking with ‘overwhelming force’.

***

“… … Hahahaha. Is this enough to hit you with that pistol? How is it? Are you finally starting to feel your own helplessness?”

Haiyan started to slowly start up, taking bullets.

It seemed as though they were about to launch a full-scale offensive.

‘Was it on purpose that you hit me…?’

Do you deliberately make me feel helpless, knowing that it won’t work even if you hit me?

Anyway, I don’t know why there are so many Chinese guys who like to show off their strength.

That’s why it’s more fun to break it with more force.

“Well. I don’t think that’s something you should be saying, since you can’t even keep up and the distance keeps getting adjusted.”

“is it?”

Haiyan’s thoughts of slowly ending it intertwined with my provocation, and the guy explosively accelerated and caught up with me.

It was literally a split second. It happened in a split second, too short to be able to distance oneself with an airbeat.

The guy who moved his body so quickly blocked my path, and I could see his smiling face wide and directly in front of me.

“Is this the right way to control your distance, you so good at it?”

The guy snickered and lifted the axe.

Yeah, definitely.

It was the perfect time to laugh at most of the players who were in my current position.

There are only a handful of players who can block that axe, or counterattack Haiyan in response.

But… … I actually found this situation amusing.

‘It’s funny. You don’t even understand who’s holding the knife.’

Because I secretly laughed at the guy who lifted the axe.

I measured the timing of the guy’s approach and transformed my dual pistols using the [Magic Engineering Weapon Transformation] I had prepared.

And then, in this life, a new gun that I had never used before appeared.

A gun that consumed so much mana that I had never even thought of using it before.

However, before the regression, it was originally the gun I used the most.

… … A gun that makes you think that the opponent’s defense is good.

Maybe the guy doesn’t care about bullets and is just swinging his arms around, looking at me as if he’s going to split my head open.

I pulled the trigger before Haiyan could even fully swing his arm.

click!

Sounds that fit together well.

Bang! Tata tang!

The cheerful sound of a bullet firing.

Ah~. I missed you.

This sound feels like it fits in your hand and you get sucked in.

… … The guy was digging in there, swinging his axe, so he probably didn’t see exactly what he was dying from until the very end of the game.

Before I knew it, I was holding one in each hand, and it turned out to be a long shotgun, quite different from the pistol I had before.

It’ll be revealed soon anyway, but won’t the waiting room be crazy with curiosity?

What could have caused him to fall?

***

Meanwhile, during the game, there was a moment when Haiyan succeeded in approaching even though Lee Chang-hyun continued to shoot.

In the waiting room, there were cheers, gasps, and sighs.

It was because everyone sensed that this game was going to end.

Lee Min-seok was also one of those people.

‘Haa… … The time attack failed.’

I didn’t think that Lee Chang-hyun didn’t know how to exploit the weak points of that gem mine and bring it down.

But if you don’t succeed, it means you don’t have enough time or space.

But even if Chang-Hyeon loses, it can’t be helped.

To begin with, it was a fight that was unfavorable in terms of synergy. Isn’t Lee Chang-hyun still a young bird among international players?

When I was feeling depressed. And when the Chinese players were nagging me, I thought I should take the blame instead. The moment I looked up at the game screen again.

The results were completely unexpected.

Bang! Tata tang!

click!

The sound of bullets firing, along with the brisk loading sound, was a little different than usual.

… … and above all else.

“Haiyan… …!”

Haiyan approached Lee Chang-hyun, who was engaged in an aerial battle, and tried to chop off his head with an axe. He, who had not suffered any damage from Lee Chang-hyun’s bullets up until now, fell, and that was the end of the match.

‘One hit kill… …?!’

It was a result no one could have predicted.

I heard from Chairman Lee Geun-taek that there are special abilities that can enhance the attack power of bullets. And I heard that there are abilities that can target weaknesses… …

From the beginning, the difference in defense and attack power was so great that it was impossible to even find a scratch.

Even if it was strengthened to some extent, it was difficult to make it meaningful.

Of course, if you were targeting a weak point like the eyes, that would make sense… …

This time, it wasn’t that vulnerability that caused the damage.

The body that Taiyan was proud of and took bullets from. It was completely pierced through.

‘What on earth happened…?’

The waiting room couldn’t help but be enveloped in silence for a moment.

***

Before I returned and liberated [Mankai], there were three weapons I mainly used.

Shotgun. Pistol. Sniper rifle.

Each of them was a weapon suitable for covering close, medium, and long ranges, but the best part was that it could deal with any situation if used according to the situation.

But the hardest thing about this life was not being able to use [the shotgun].

Because it fired a huge number of bullets at once, it had the characteristic of releasing an incomparable amount of mana in one go compared to a pistol or sniper rifle.

Actually, it wasn’t that hard to understand considering the close range firepower of the shotgun.

‘The shotgun blast when you have enough mana is not much different from the insane destructive power that Ethan fires at close range… … .’

The pleasure of holding a shotgun in each hand and shooting at Haiyan’s body.

It seems like I’m recalling all the hard days of my past, when I had to block my bullets with various defensive abilities and tactics in this life. I couldn’t express it in words.

‘Of course, I’ll wipe my mouth clean when I get to the waiting room.’

There was no counterattack.

Haiyan couldn’t withstand the shotgun’s barrage, and won without a reversal.

Was that why?

When I came out to the waiting room, the atmosphere was subtle.

The Chinese team players were looking at me with a strange expression that I couldn’t tell what emotion it was.

And Takumi, with his eyes shining and his hands clenched in amazement, and the Japanese players with expressions of admiration.

‘Lastly, the PER team members shrug their shoulders as if they expected it, even though it wasn’t their doing… … right?’

It was a little funny, but at the same time I understood what he meant.

If I were in that position and the PER team had won, I would have felt really good about it.

It was none other than Wei who broke that delicate tension.

“excellent.”

An expression of unapologetic praise. His face showed a strong interest in me.

‘I guess he must have shot Haiyan at the last moment when he defeated him, but it would not have been visible if he had used a shotgun because of Haiyan’s large body… ‘

Is that the part you were curious about?

Well, maybe he thought that even if he asked, there was no way he would answer. Way seemed to be just concentrating on ending it.

“You have proven your strength, so there is nothing else to say. However, Haiyan. Don’t you have something to say to Iza?”

“… … .”

Is it because he can’t admit defeat? Or is it because he was shocked by the defeat despite revealing his most powerful weapon?

Wei’s scolding fell on Haiyan, who was unable to open her mouth easily.

“Hai Yan!”

Only then could I see Haiyan stepping forward towards me and Lee Jeong-hoon.

“I’m sorry. I admit that I was wrong. The only things that matter to a player are winning and losing and their skills… … I lectured you on things that don’t really matter other than that.”

Perhaps he was angry at himself. Haiyan’s breathing was a little rough, and his hands seemed to be shaking a little.

But Lee Jeong-hoon answered without paying any attention to that appearance.

“I’m glad you realized it.”

Was he really hurt by something? I thought he would take it well, but he seemed to be being a bit sarcastic.

Even though I think children are children… …

Honestly, I felt a little bit refreshed.

***

After that incident, the Chinese players were all gathered together in the waiting room assigned to the Chinese team.

“Way! How could you just let such an insult pass? Didn’t you hear that brat’s last words?”

“It’s true that Haiyan is the real one. So what’s wrong with admitting it clearly?”

“Couldn’t you have stepped up and defeated that guy? Just like he stepped up for the brat.”

Wei laughed at what Zhenhua said.

“I?”

Immediately after that, Wei spoke without hiding his momentum and revealed everything.

“I would have said that it would be difficult to see them as players of the same level just because they came from the same Chinese team, but Zhenhua… … .”

“… … That’s it. Still, they are fellow countrymen.”

“You have to cultivate your strength to raise your own voice. You know that.

And Haiyan didn’t even try to stop that guy who was a substitute. Then there’s no problem.”

At those words, the players, including Haiyan, bowed their heads.

Because everything Wei said was true.

I was just burning with determination to step on the Korean team that I would meet in an official match.

However, something unexpected came out of Wei’s mouth, who seemed to be taking the side of the Korean team.

“Of course. Not for such personal and childish reasons, but I’m a little interested in him because of his performance in this match.”

‘I’m interested.’ The Chinese players all knew what that meant to Wei.

The Chinese players were the ones who got scolded, but in the end, they were smiling.

I don’t know how he defeated Haiyan, but I have a feeling that his path in this international exchange match won’t be smooth.

One thing was certain.
