Return of the Frozen Player 533
Sword Demon (3)
Seo Jun-ho, who ordered the players to go out, turned his head.
Bodies with neat sword marks come into view.
His lips were slightly bitten.
‘Heavenly Demon… … What kind of plan is this?’
I don’t know why he created a new mine at this point.
But if you don’t know, just find out.
Seo Jun-ho moved his step and lightly placed his hand on the dead man’s forehead.
“Confessions of a Dead Man.”
With everyone’s eyes gathered, the video was played.
“Hey, Jane… … Are you really sure this way?”
Abraham, the party leader, asked suspiciously.
That would be the case, because from earlier on, he had been going into the forest where people were rare.
“Oh, that cowardly bastard. Why do you ask the same question every five minutes?”
Jane responded annoyedly, shaking the thread stuck in her stomach.
“Can you see this line in your eyes? So, can we just shut up and go?”
Her ability ‘Guiding Thread (A)’ is a tracking ability.
The ability to create a thread connecting her with a creature that meets the conditions set by herself.
There were not many creatures that could avoid her pursuit in the wide range of 10 km.
“Are you sure you didn’t set the conditions wrong? It looks like even a monster will come out.”
“Are you really sick? So, I must have been premature, right? The condition is that you are a player from Earth.”
Jane let out a deep sigh and looked at Abraham with a pitiful look.
Stinging at the stinging gaze, he did not forget to say a single sound while gently turning his head.
“Kuhm… … But if that condition is met, isn’t mine also searched for?”
“Wow, did you hear? it’s mine I think I will turn around.”
“Stop fighting, please. Aren’t you tired of fighting with the same repertoire?”
Hudson, who had been watching the two argue for 15 years, clicked his tongue.
he asked Jane.
“Okay, how much distance do you have left with the castaway?”
“About 2,000 yards.”
“This is why you can’t be from England. Say it in metric.”
“Well, then about 1.8km left.
At that moment, the red thread that was connected to Jane swayed like crazy.
For the first time, I hope everyone will shut their mouths and look at the thread for a while.
Phew!
“Aaaagh!”
The thread pulled tight and began to drag Jane somewhere.
Hudson shouted, bewildered.
“Abraham!”
“Formation C-2! I’ll go after Jane, so you take cover and catch the enemy’s back!”
Abraham drew his sword and pursued Jane, who was being dragged away, while Hudson climbed a tall tree.
“Jane!”
Abraham quickly gained speed and swung his sword to cut off the red thread.
After rolling over the floor several times, Jane coughed for a long time while being covered in dirt.
“Ugh, damn it. What the f*ck are you doing with this? Actually, how else did you notice?”
With bruises all over her body, she burst into tears.
I came to rescue a guy in distress out of pure kindness, but I didn’t expect him to repay the favor with an enemy.
Abraham handed over the healing potion and said,
“Cut your body first. I guess… … affection
I don’t think he’s a commercial guy.”
From the beginning of the chase, this side sent a steady magic signal.
It was the international standard signal to stay where you were because I was going to rescue you.
‘If you see that you reacted like this after hearing that… …
Abraham’s eyes softened.
There are two main possibilities.
I was brainwashed by the Overmind.
“… … That’s why you shouldn’t be trembling in pointless cubism.”
The opponent is really a Mine.
Abraham watched the vacant lot with his magic power up.
“Jane. Join the community and see if you can connect with other players around you.”
After touching the community for a while, she clicked her tongue.
“Damn the imperial prince bastard. It’s still fed up.”
“… … Then step back slowly.”
Somewhere around them, Hudson is covering them.
If the other party shows up prematurely
If it does, an arrow will pierce its heart.
‘I wish I could leave safely like this.’

But that wish never came true.
“Ah, Abraham. over there… …
Jane pointed somewhere with her round eyes.
A person wearing a low-lying forest fog over her ankles is standing on one side of the clearing.
Abraham’s neck trembled greatly.
Until the opponent came closer, I didn’t feel a different sign.
Moreover, what should I say? that alien being.
‘A living human… … Am I right?’
The sword held in one hand was limp, touching the dirt floor.
The blue coating covering the whole body made it difficult to guess the opponent’s body type, age, and gender.
The most disparate thing of all is the face
It was a mask covering the
“That… … Are you going to go blind?”
Abraham’s eyes narrowed.
I have no idea what the heck he is thinking or what his purpose is.
‘Are you going to hide your identity tightly? He looks like a man from his height.’
The hand holding the sword was damp with sweat.
Abraham pointed the tip of his sword at the opponent and opened his mouth.
“I am the international mercenary Abraham Kettlebell.
all. Reveal your identity.”
Opponent was speechless.
All I can feel is the obvious ‘hostility’.
‘but. There’s no way a guy who hides his appearance like that can’t talk.’
Still, there was one reason why he talked to me.
‘I focus the guy’s attention on me.’
The sniper of the party who is aiming for the heart of the opponent somewhere.
for Hudson.
* * *
Iron spatula!
The bolt moved with a heavy sound.
‘good.’
Hudson, perched on a tree branch of moderate width, aimed at his target in a comfortable position.
‘Stay as it is.’
The wind was calm, and the opponent did not move much.
Abraham, who has been together for a long time, is drawing the attention of the other person.
‘I’m not sure what your purpose is, but.’
I warned him several times and asked questions.
I’ve already done all I can do.
As the scope expanded, the defenseless back of the other person was seen even larger.
‘Well then… … ?’
The moment Hudson is about to pull the trigger.
The opponent who was full of scope disappeared like a ghost.
Missing the target, his eyebrows furrowed.
‘not good.’
I don’t know why the other person suddenly disappeared.
But the sniper who failed the shot knows what to do.
‘Move the point.’
Hudson’s body quickly became transparent.
It was ‘transparency (B)’, the ability to provide food that dramatically increased his survival rate.
‘I just need to move and find the enemy again.’
There are Abraham and Jane in the clearing, so it should buy you some time for the time being.
Finding a safer point than before, Hudson took out his sniper rifle from his inventory again.
‘This time I’ll definitely finish it.’
And the moment I looked at the clearing through the scope.
‘what?’
What was caught in his sight was the bodies of his comrades who had become cold corpses.
He moved the point in just 11 seconds.
‘Abraham and Jane couldn’t even last 11 seconds?’
monster.
As soon as the word came to mind, Hudson immediately disappeared through invisibility.
sizzle, sizzle.
I heard the hem of the opponent’s coat brushing the dirt floor.
Hudson, who was very nervous, sweated all over his body.
It flowed like rain.
The other party, who came close to me, stood and looked around like a specter.
His sword was covered in red blood that seemed to indicate who the owner was.
‘Please get off. And show your back to me.’
Hudson’s earnest prayer, looking down at his colleague’s enemy, worked.
The monster put the sword into the scabbard and sizzle, sizzle.
Because I started walking again.
‘good. Then quit now.’
Hudson hurriedly and cautiously aimed at the back of the enemy’s head.
That was the final scene of the memory video.
There was silence in the medical room for a moment.
Because each of them was immersed in thoughts about the ‘sword demon’ in the video.
Shin Seong-hyun carefully opened his mouth.
“… … Hudson would have died without even realizing he had been cut.”
“hmm. It’s a comfortable death, but I can’t bear to say that it’s fortunate.”
Seo Jun-ho, who had been silently looking at the corpse, turned his head.
“Son Chae-won. Do you know anything about the abilities of these three people?”
“These are mercenaries with their own reputation and skills. It is also a team that has been in the industry for over 15 years.”
I mean veterans.
They can’t even use their hands properly
did.
Seo Jun-ho then confirmed the memories of Abraham and Jane.
“Mr. Shin Seong-hyun. How is it.”
“It’s the first swordsmanship I’ve ever seen.”
As the master of the goblin guild, he knew the swordsmanship of famous players.
“Especially when cutting down Abraham, the swordsmanship feels quite different from that of a human.”
“It feels different from human swordsmanship.”
Since he is a demon, he could have been trained in swordsmanship by demons.
Seo Jun-ho nodded and turned his head.
“Ramadat, what do you think?”
“Hmm. A little vague.”
Ramadat, who scratched his cheek, showed a rare color.
“I don’t think I’ll lose if I stick… … I do not know. Where the hell did this guy come from?”
The second is Ramadat, who has a sad sense of victory, who is not sure of victory.
all.
It meant that the level of the other party was high.
“What about you, Junho?”
Seo Jun-ho, who pondered for a while at the question that came back, slowly opened his mouth.
“If the video shows everything, I will win.”
Even if there is a hidden move, I am confident of winning.
Seo Jun-ho quickly came to a conclusion.
“Ramadat. I guess it was in progress
You should go scouting the Cronus Lab instead of me.”
“Are you trying to hunt him down?”
“It should be.”
With such a guy wandering around outside, it was inevitable that the remaining players would unite.
“Besides, do you think Mio or Gilberto will ever meet that guy… …
People’s faces hardened at once.
If Ramadat was an enemy who couldn’t guarantee victory, then neither should they.
“Certainly, it seems that this side is the most urgent. Then, for the operation you were trying to carry out, I will reorganize the personnel with Ramada.”
“Let’s go to the meeting room and talk about the details.”
People left the medical room one by one to re-establish their plans.
Son Chae-won, who was about to leave the room for the last time, turned her head and looked at the scars left on the body for a long time.
* * *
After a night of discussion, the optimal cutting edge was determined.
It was decided that Seo Jun-ho, Seo-ri, Paik Geon-wu, and Skaya would be put into operation, called ‘Sword Horse Hunt’.
The four of them decided to leave the castle as soon as the day dawned.
“I will go too.”
Perhaps that is why Son Chae-won’s belated request felt somewhat out of the blue.
Seo Jun-ho looked at her and said.
“I’m sorry to say this, but Chaewon’s skills are dangerous.”
“i know. But I won’t hold her back. Rather, I am confident that I can help.”
Certainly, if you borrow her strengthening magic, you can temporarily gain tremendous power.
‘At any rate, if the sword demon is the Heavenly Demon’s trap to summon me… …
It might be a little lacking with only himself, Paik Geon-wu, and Skaman.
At that time, Son Chae-won’s strengthening magic will come like a ray of light.
‘Is it a matter of taking a little risk instead of taking insurance for the unexpected?’
After thinking for a while, Seo Jun-ho opened his mouth.
“On the field, you must follow my words unconditionally.”
“I promise.”
“Then pack your things and come out through the gate.”
As the day dawned, five people, including Seo Jun-ho, left the ice castle.
