Episode 8
“forlorn hope.”
The moment the words flowed from Jin Tae-kyung’s mouth, Wu Heixing almost shouted, forgetting even the rising anger.
‘Hey, you crazy bastard!’
Death Squad (決死隊).
Doesn’t it mean that he will literally fight for his death?
I don’t even know the exact number yet.
Even if he manages to break through the silver monster army, a real monster called the Arch Lich is waiting behind it. Just the thought of it made the hair on his head stand on end.
‘This, this is crazy.’
No matter how many casualties there were, it didn’t matter to Wuhei-xing.
After all, isn’t it a country with a population of over 1 billion? Even if 100,000 or 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 are disappearing are just a handful. Rather, if that damn goon is the vanguard of the gang and oxidizes fiercely, I’m willing to open my eyes and rejoice.
but… … .
“Let’s gather the best and hit the head.”
That meant that the death squad also included Wuhei Xing Bonn. And he had no intention of taking the risk.
“Get rid of that nonsense… … . J
It was at that moment that Wu Heixing, who could not stand it and jumped up from her seat, opened her mouth.
“Oh, that’s a good way.”
“… … ! □
Wu Heixing was speechless and closed his eyes.
rose up
I didn’t think he would raise Jin Tae-gyeong’s hand.
He, no one else, Lee Jeong-ryong.
“Ji, what did you just say?”
“I said it was a good way.”
Lee Jeong-ryong smiled softly and continued.
“This battle must be finished quickly. The Arch Lich must be creating new undead even at this very moment, so if the S-class hunters take the lead and go ahead and punish them, the monster army, which is mostly made up of undead, will collapse and the number of casualties will increase. will also decrease.”
“This, this teacher.”
“You seem to think the same as me. Just like everyone else here. Isn’t that right, Mr. Wu Heixing?”
“Other people, what? … . J
Wu Heixing only then looked around with a puzzled face.
Wei Penghu and other high-ranking Chinese generals, as well as Pai Chen and Magic Jones Prince Felix, were exchanging small nods and exchanging conversations.
「Um. surely… … .”
“Even if you say you’re reinforcing the troops of your allies, that’s the same for the Arch Reach, so the more time you drag out, the bigger the battle will be.”
“If you select and place A-rank hunters and other veterans on one side, and break through with S-rank hunters at the forefront… … ? j
“The risk is high, but it’s a strategy with just as much potential.”
“Even though the Arch-Rich is a very powerful named monster, the odds are high if the S-rank Hunters work together.”
In the conversation that comes to my ears,
Wu Heixing’s face turned white.
‘Are these sane now?’
Looking at such a crazy strategy positively, it must have turned into a group.
Lee Jeong-ryong, whom he believed in, for some reason, raised Jin Tae-gyeong’s hand.
Wu Heixing, who did not want to be included in the death squad even if he died, hurriedly opened his mouth to Jin Taekyung.
“Hey, wait! If all the S-class hunters leave, there will be a big hole in the power, right?」
“omg”
Jin Tae-gyeong took a deep breath and looked at Wu Hei-xing with a surprised look.
“Wow, you do think sometimes too, don’t you?”
“You’re right. Certainly, it would be good to have at least a few people left.”
Damn you bastard.
But now is not the time to be angry. Wu Heixing held back his anger and continued.
“Yeah, that’s right. So, just in case, I… … . J Jin Tae-kyung cut off what he was about to say and asked Magic Johnson.
“I think you should stay. What do you think of Johnson?”
“Oh me?”
what kind of situation is this Wuhei Singh desperately intervened.
“Mae, Magic Johnson? Wouldn’t it be nice to have at least one wizard with us?”
“Of course it is good. Good… … .”
Jin Tae-kyung smiled kindly at Wu Heixing and continued.
“Then what about the rear?”
“huh?”
“What would you do if the Arch Lich teleported and attacked your allies? Will you stop me?”
“No matter how powerful the Arch Lich is, if the Archmage remains and interferes with magic, he won’t be able to do that. And if it’s Magic Johnson’s wide-range magic, it could be a move that can turn the tide of the war.”
It’s word for word. Jin Tae-kyung clicked his tongue at the momentary silence of Wu Heixing.
“No, think about it. internet every day
In the rear caution gif. Stop looking at things like that and think about the rear in a real war.”
“… … ! j
Jin Tae-kyung, ignoring Wu Hei-xing, who had hardened like a stone statue, asked Magic Johnson.
“what do you think?”
“You’re right, Jin. Then am I the only one left?”
Defense Minister Wei Penghu, who had been watching the situation quietly, suddenly opened his mouth.

“Arch Rich would have left a large number of high-ranking monsters for the final battle. It is far more than the number of A-rank hunters our allies have. At least two more S-class hunters are needed to keep the war tense.”
It’s not over. There are still two seats left. Wu Hei-xing, who found hope, cleared his throat.
“Then I have no choice but to stay… … . j
“If the others understand, I would like you to exclude Prince Felix first.”
“yes? ,,
“Sorry, I can’t tell you the details.
I can’t, but there’s a complicated problem.”
Felix is not just an S-class hunter, but a symbol of Britain and royalty. It is also third in the line of succession to the throne, not a halfway collateral.
Everyone in this room knew that the ‘details’ that Wei Penghu had not mentioned were diplomatic issues with Britain.
“Well, my father is the King of England, so that might be the case. Then the prince falls for it.”
At Jin Tae-kyung’s words, Prince Felix opened his mouth with an uncomfortable face.
“I want you to know that it was not my will. However, since I was born, I was bound to the royal family, so I couldn’t go against Obama’s order… … . J
“are you okay. I don’t care. It’s rather good because the 4th in the British succession ranks will be reluctant if anything happens to the strategy I proposed.”
“It’s third place! And be polite when talking to me.”
“Oh, yes. congratulations on the bronze medal Then, by any chance, does anyone have any objection to His Highness Prince Felix, who is a hotbed of corruption, falling for his personal connections?”
Wu Heixing, who was about to raise his hand without realizing it, stopped moving when Pai Chen and Lee Jeongryong answered the next moment.
“I do not care.”
“I agree.”
Jin Tae-kyung nodded and looked at Wu Heixing.
“you?”
“Nana?”
“If the only one left asks me like that, what am I supposed to say? Pick one out of Purple Doll, Toby, and Po.”
There is no corner to escape from. Magic Johnson and Prince Felix are clearly foreigners, and there was a good reason, and even Pi Chen and Lee Jeong-ryong agreed.
Wu Heixing murmured as he closed his eyes and opened them.
“… … agreement.”
“Answer me straight. If you answer like that, how do you know if it’s Donguibogam or not. Are you Heo Jun?”
“agreement… … do.”
“okay.”
It was literally lightning-fast, and there was still one spot left, but Wuhe Yi-xing felt ominous.
And it didn’t take long for that ominous feeling to turn into certainty.
“The one seat left is Pai Chen. I hope you fill it.”
However, the reason Wu Heixing was flustered was that it was Lee Jeong-ryong, not Jin Tae-gyeong, who blocked the last escape hole.
‘What the hell is that old man thinking?’
Hei-xing Wu, who clearly remembered the conversation he had with Jeong-ryong Lee on the day he was brutally trampled by Jin Tae-gyeong, felt betrayed.
‘You must have suggested that we join forces, and then stab me in the back like this?’
Glancing at Wu Heixing, who was grinding his teeth, Pai Chen tilted his glass.
“Well, sir, I’m not the kind of person who enjoys taking risks, but wouldn’t it be more likely to succeed if I left that kid instead of me?”
“No, Pai Chen. To reduce casualties, it would be more helpful for you to remain.”
“It’s because this teacher doesn’t know that guy. Did you even feel a sense of patriotism when you were watching it?”
“Nothing to worry about. I have it.”
A calm but confident tone. This is what I can say because it is Lee Jeong-ryong and Lee Jeong-ryong-mi.
The old hero’s gaze, which showed confidence that no one in this room could deny, reached one person.
“And Jin Tae-kyung. You too. Isn’t that so?”
Deeply sunken eyes that do not know the emotion
Jin Tae-kyung, who met Lee Jung-ryong’s gaze without saying a word, parted his lips.
“Our deputy guild leader. You have a knack for making the obvious difficult.”
“Can you understand that it means that you will also participate in the death squad?”
“of course.”
“You are brave. Heroic. In that sense, I will give you the vanguard.”
“It’s good. Can I leave a saying like Louis Armstrong at this point? This is a small step for a human, but it’s better than reigning a heavenly horse for monsters. Something like that.”
“It’s rough for a famous quote to be included in a history book. And the name is wrong. It’s Neil Armstrong, not Louis Armstrong.”
“The bag strap is quite long. Even so, it’s not as good as my toilet paper strap.”
People’s heads pounded at Jin Tae-kyung’s incomprehensible answer, and Wuhei Singh despaired.
Just a month ago, he enjoyed a luxurious boat party surrounded by dozens of beauties, but now he has joined the death-defying death squad.
And it was the very next moment.
– Do you think I betrayed you?
“… … ! j
– Accept it. I promise you there will be no risk.
Then, Wu Heixing slowly heard WH at the sound of the electric sound that pierced his ears.
Lee Jeong-ryong, with a soft smile on his face, continued talking while looking at him.
“He’ll do his job well, I guarantee you.”
Jin Tae-gyeong replied by tapping the armrest of the chair slowly.
“How well you will do your job… … I look forward to that.”
* * *
The rather long meeting was over.
The death squad will consist of S-class hunters, A-class top hunters, and B-class veterans, and the command team will be busy selecting the appropriate personnel.
And the Skeleton Warlord, who had been silent throughout the meeting, declared in a solemn voice as soon as I returned to my assigned tent on the Western Front.
– Commander Bonn will drop out of this fight.
“Yeah, Joe.”
– Ask why, you wicked human being.
“Yeah, what is it?”
– As the commander of the undead army, you are reluctant to deal with your own people.
I replied with a puzzled expression.
“What bullshit. Who is the one who supplemented nutrition while sucking the energy of his own people until now?”
– … … oh.
“Let’s be honest. If I say that I don’t want to go to Ark Rich because I’m afraid of it, will I be cursing?”
– You will.
“Sibiel bastard… … oh.”
The Skeleton Warlord, whose distrust deepened further, spoke.
-Anyway, Commander Bon doesn’t want to get involved in this war anymore. keep the promise of the day
“The promise of that day?”
– Look at such a wicked human being. / Instead of protecting the two humans, what favor did you not promise to do 3?!
“ah. ,,
It’s been a while since I’ve been speechless.
I definitely made that promise. I’d be fooling around like someone with amnesia, but this time I couldn’t pretend I didn’t know because of my conscience.
“Hmm, what’s your wish?”
The Skeleton Warlord shouted as if he had been waiting.
– Give me freedom!
“freedom?”
– that? All wicked people have ever been
You insulted and abused Commander Bon! That’s a whopping 408!
“??… ? Are you from an animal rights advocacy group?”
– Fulfill your promise, Commander Bonn will finally find freedom!
be free Thoughts of Lee Jeong-ryong were so complicated in my head that I didn’t even think of this wish for a moment.
After thinking for a while, I answered.
yes, give freedom.”
– oh? 。。。。/
“Then go well.”
– uh?
And without hesitation, I took the skull from my inventory and threw it out of the tent.
Where thousands of hunters are teeming with
right!
With the sound of something hitting, the area around the tent becomes cluttered. Shouts rang out from all directions, and the roar of magic exploding resounded.
“Monsters! It’s a monster attack!”
“Kill!”
Bang Kwa Kwang!
how long has it been 5 minutes? 10 minutes?
snip, snip. Out of nowhere, the hem of the tent moved, and a glossy black skull rolled and came to a halt in front of my feet.
“Oh, who is this?”
“The owner of a free spirit, what is the Skeleton Warlord doing here?”
? 2l human
In the empty pupils of the skull, red eyes flickered pitifully.
I think you’re crying over the undead
Is it an illusion? The Skeleton Warlord continued with a watery voice.
– wish,”… can i cancel?
“Oops, of course.”
I spoke in a cheerful tone like a counselor.
“By the way, you know that wish tickets cannot be exchanged or refunded, right?”
“Come here, Golgol.”
Jump.
The Skeleton Warlord powerlessly jumped into my arms.
