Kill The Hero – Chapter 222 – The Tortoise and the Hare (3)

[Johann Georg enters the second dungeon at 4am on the 21st day . ]

[Johann Georg takes the lead!]

On the 21st day of the challenge, Johann Georg entered the second dungeon first .

However, no one really paid much attention to that fact .

-The contest is basically over .

-Isaac Ivanov has basically won already .

It was much easier to compare who was faster in a situation with a tortoise and a hare .

Of course, that didn’t mean that the public’s interest had diminished .

On the contrary, the attention given to this competition by the world increased greatly .

-I still hope Johann Georg can create some miracle .

-Right, I hope Johann Georg can do something .

A hero who received unconditional support from the world had appeared .

-I’m so disappointed in Isaac Ivanov . I never thought that he’d act like this .

ㄴTo be honest, this is the right way to win . In any case, Isaac Ivanov just needs to clear the dungeon a second ahead of Johann Georg . It’s common sense for him to take a longer break if he’s sure of his victory .

ㄴStill, isn’t this too much? Shouldn’t he at least show some respect for his opponent?

ㄴIf you put it in a good way, it’s clever, if you put it in a bad way, it’s mean .

And the villain who was fighting against this hero also appeared .

In truth, the so-called battle between good and good, a battle of goodwill, wasn’t very interesting .

After all, didn’t villains appear in movies, stories and even professional wrestling because it’s fun and interesting?

Moreover, there was never a movie where a sudden reversal was anticipated by everyone watching .

[Isaac Ivanov enters the dungeon at 5am on the 21st day!]

And so, the confrontation once again drew the attention of the world .

[Eliminate the Steel Rhinoceros to move on to the next floor . ]

The moment he saw the notification for the quest to clear the first floor of the dungeon, Lee Jin-ah spoke with a serious expression .

“We were lucky . ”

At those words, Kim Woo-jin turned to look at him .

Nevertheless, Lee Jin-ah remained relaxed under his stare as he continued .

“What? We were lucky, weren’t we? If we’re not lucky enough we might actually lose to Johann Georg . ”

It was just as Lee Jin-ah said .

The current situation might appear as though Isaac Ivanov had an overwhelming advantage, but that wasn’t necessarily the case .

“Even if we only get three survival quests, forty days could pass really quickly . ”

In the case of survival quests which required the players to survive for a certain period of time, it would be impossible for them to finish quickly, no matter how skilled they were .  

In such a situation, it was not impossible for there to be a reversal .

“So we were lucky to get a designated hunting quest on the first floor . ”

In that sense, they were indeed lucky to receive a quest to hunt a specific monster in order to clear the floor .

Kim Woo-jin couldn’t doubt that fact either .

“You know it well . ”

Therefore, he nodded and showed his agreement .

He easily admitted that Lee Jin-ah was right .

When he saw that, Lee Jin-ah shrugged his shoulders with a proud look on his face .  

Kim Woo-jin then said to him .

“Anyway, let’s begin . ”

[The Book of the Dead has been summoned . ]

[You used Resurrection . ]

Immediately after Kim Woo-jin summoned the Wyvern Skeleton Soldier from the Book of the Dead, it regained its former appearance thanks to the resurrection skill .

Kieek!

The Wyvern then let out a screech before Lee Jin-ah, who was looking at it carefully, opened his mouth .

“I want to ride one too…”

Kim Woo-jin turned to look at Lee Jin-ah, who had an expression similar to a child looking at a fun amusement park ride, and said .

“The Steel Rhino has a good sense of smell . Without a skill from the Silent Hunter, it would be impossible to approach it without getting caught . However, it makes no sense to encircle it . Even a Golem would be shattered by the horn on its nose with just a single charge . ”

“Okay?”

Although he responded, it was clear that Lee Jin-ah wasn’t actually paying attention to Kim Woo-jin’s words as he kept staring at the Wyvern .

He looked like he really wanted to ride it .

Kim Woo-jin continued his explanation without caring about Lee Jin-ah’s disinterest .

“There are two ways to hunt the Steel Rhino . One is to hide in the ground and wait for it to pass before attacking from below . The other is to fly in the sky to avoid its sense of smell . ”

No matter how good its sense of smell was, it would be impossible for it to smell something flying high in the sky .

However, Lee Jin-ah interrupted Kim Woo-jin’s explanation in order to ask one question .

“But wouldn’t it be useless if a Wyvern approaches because of the sound it would make?”

Kiiieek!

As if to prove Lee Jin-ah’s point, the Wyvern screeched loudly .

“That’s right . ”

Kim Woo-jin nodded .  

As Lee Jin-ah had said, the scent could be hidden, but the Steel Rhino would still be able to hear the Wyvern coming .

“As soon as the Wyvern appears, the Steel Rhino will chase after it . ”

Naturally, a chase would ensue .

“Then, when you notice an opening, you will jump from the Wyvern’s body onto the Steel Rhino . ”

“Just like the main character in an action movie chasing a train with a car and then ditching the car to jump onto the train?”

“That’s a perfect analogy . ”

In response to Kim Woo-jin’s praise, the corner of Lee Jin-ah’s lips rose to form a smirk on his lips .

“Before I became a player, my goal was to be a movie star . An actor like Tom Cruise from Mission Impossible . ”

Kim Woo-jin had a simple response to that .

“Then you’re lucky . ”

“Huh?”

“You’ll fulfill half of your wish today . ”

What was the most influential part when attacking a dungeon?

First of all, it was skill .

If you weren’t skilled enough, then it was impossible to clear a dungeon, no matter how lucky you were .

However, if your skills were good enough, then your luck would also play a role when attacking the dungeon .

“The outcome of this confrontation is still hard to estimate . ”

That’s why Jeon Young-soo said that he didn’t know who would win this challenge .

“But isn’t Isaac Ivanov’s party stronger than Johann Georg’s?”

When he heard that, the man who brought Jeon Young-soo coffee couldn’t help but tilt his head .

“It’s not just Johann Georg, his strength defies common sense . ”

Clearly, the power displayed by Isaac Ivanov’s party completely surpassed what common sense dictated .

Most people only heard that Isaac Ivanov cleared the dungeon in 14 days, but not many knew his condition when he exited the dungeon .

“He didn’t even get hurt in a 5 Floor dungeon . ”

Jeon Young-soo, who had seen it all firsthand, naturally had a better idea about Isaac Ivanov’s power .

“But I’m still not sure . ”

Nevertheless, Jeon Young-soo still could not estimate the victory or defeat in this second leg of the confrontation .

“If Johann Georg is lucky, he can clear the dungeon faster than Isaac Ivanov . ”

As had been said earlier, luck was also a factor that couldn’t be ignored .

Of course, some would also say .

“Then isn’t it possible for Isaac Ivanov to also get lucky?”

Then what if the Goddess of Luck smiled upon Isaac Ivanov instead?

Jeon Young-soo gave a mysterious smile at that question .

“Then we might witness something truly ridiculous . For example, something like Isaac Ivanov’s party walking out of the dungeon today . ”

When he heard that, the employee beside him checked the watch on his wrist .  

It was 6:12 on the 29th . That was enough for him to gather that it had been about 8 days since Isaac Ivanov’s party had entered the second dungeon .

As Jeon Young-soo said, if Isaac Ivanov’s party came out now, that would mean they cleared the dungeon in 8 days .

“That’s impossible . ”

Holding his coffee, Jeon Young-soo gave a bitter smile when he heard that .

Despite his bitter smile, however, Jeon Young-soo’s eyes were cold .

‘Regardless of the outcome, the next step is to deal with Isaac Ivanov . ’

As he thought this, Jeon Young-soo recalled what had happened a week ago .

A plan had finally been drafted .

A plan to eliminate Isaac Ivanov as soon as the second attack was over .

‘As soon as Isaac Ivanov exits the dungeon, I’ll give him this letter…’

And it was Johann Georg’s letter, which was currently in Jeon Young-soo’s possession that would set the plan into action .

As soon as the letter was delivered to Isaac Ivanov, an irrevocable trigger would be pulled .

‘Then Isaac Ivanov will immediately die . ’

Jeon Young-soo was currently holding the trigger that would lead to the death of a world class hero .

‘It has to be handled perfectly . ’

Therefore, Jeon Young-soo sharpened his concentration even beyond its peak .

At that moment, Jeon Young-soo was confident that he could perform his task without any issues .

‘It must be done with confidence . ’

He wouldn’t be shocked even if a lightning bolt struck the ground in front of him at that moment .

Of course, that confidence didn’t last very long .

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

At that moment, the dungeon gate in front of them rippled and a man wearing a skull mask stepped out of it together with another large man .

Jeon Young-soo and the other employee couldn’t help but freeze at that moment .

Jeon Young-soo only remembered one thing that happened after that .

“How long was it?”

And that was the question the man raised at that moment .

There were more stories about villains winning than one would initially expect .

And there were even many people who would want the villains to win .

Therefore, when watching movies or professional wrestling, it was often the villains who won in the end .

But if they won by too much, then it would be a problem .

That was Isaac Ivanov’s current situation .

[Isaac Ivanov clears the second dungeon in 8 days!]

Isaac Ivanov’s second dungeon attack, which ended in only 8 days sent shockwaves through the world, to the extent that there weren’t even any debates for a while .

Of course, people knew .

It was possible that Isaac Ivanov had simply gotten lucky .

[Isaac Ivanov, “I was very lucky” . ]

[Isaac Ivanov receives the blessing of the Goddess of Luck!]

Isaac Ivanov himself didn’t try to hide that fact .

He didn’t receive any survival quests and the dungeon clear process was rather simple and easy .

This was definitely something that couldn’t happen without a godly amount of luck .

-This is no longer a contest .

-Even though it’s just luck, isn’t the difference that’s overwhelming?

-He cleared a 5 Floor dungeon in 8 days, some parties take 8 days just to clear a single floor…

What was certain at that point, however, was that it was pointless for Johann Georg to even struggle .

-In the end, Isaac Ivanov is still the strongest .

Because Isaac Ivanov proved that Johann Georg wasn’t comparable to him .

And Johann Georg responded to that fact .

[Johann Georg left a letter to Isaac Ivanov before entering the second dungeon!]

In the letter, he said .

“…If Isaac Ivanov clears the second dungeon faster than me, I will admit defeat . ”

If he couldn’t even clear the second dungeon faster than Isaac Ivanov, he would admit defeat .

“At the same time, I’d like to ask Isaac Ivanov a favor . I think you’re good enough to entrust my back to, so I’d like to partner with you in order to clear dungeons together . ”

And he asked Isaac Ivanov to accept him as a teammate and subordinate .

The letter Johann Georg left shook the world .

-Oh my God, so Johann Georg tested Isaac Ivanov to see if he was worthy enough to be his boss?

-Well he can’t just be the boss on account of his fame .

-No, but I never thought someone would test someone to see if they could be their boss like this . In the end, Johann Georg is still amazing .

-Really amazing .

It turned out that the confrontation wasn’t just to see who was the better player .

This news took the world by storm .

-So the two of them will become a team?

-A monstrous dream team!

-5 Floor dungeons would be completely annihilated now .

ㄴWhy would they do 5 Floor dungeons? With the two of them, they could even tackle 6 Floor dungeons!

ㄴWhat 6 Floor dungeons? They could be targeting 7 Floor dungeons by the end of the year!

The fact that the two heroes might become one and save the world together, caused everyone to burn with excitement .

[Will Isaac Ivanov and Johann Georg’s first challenge be the Sphinx Dungeon that appeared in Egypt?]

[Will the Dream Team challenge an rank 6 Floor dungeon?]

It was rumored that the next dungeon the two would attack wouldn’t be a simple 6 Floor dungeon, but the Sphinx Dungeon, an rank that far surpassed ordinary dungeons .

“It’s different from the original plan but in the end, the stage was still set for us to get rid of Isaac Ivanov . ”

After confirming a few things, Park Shin-hye placed her tablet back on her desk .

Sitting in front of her was the Bow God, who also had a tablet in his hand .

The expressions on their faces were quite different .

Park Shin-hye was smiling slightly, while the Bow God had an uneasy expression on his face .

Finally, the Bow God opened his mouth .

“Certainly, if you used the Hades’ Ring that you gave to Johann Georg, you could turn Isaac Ivanov’s skeletons against him…”

Hades’ Ring .

After thinking about it for a moment, the Bow God shook his head .

“But even after preparing properly, we still weren’t able to catch him . To be honest, I do not believe that this is enough to catch him now . ”

In the past, when the Bow God had tried to get rid of Isaac Ivanov, he had believed that their preparations were enough .

Nevertheless, they’d failed .

And the only one that ended up dying were his subordinates .

“Yes, I understand the concerns you might have . Whenever you were convinced you could deal with Isaac Ivanov, you failed . ”

Park Shin-hye also knew that .

“Lee Se-jun feels the same way . ”

Lee Se-jin knew as well . Therefore, they had prepared even more .

“We’ve prepared the Cap of Invisibility(1) . ”

The Cap of Invisibility!

Hearing this shocked the Bow God greatly, and Park Shin-hye spoke confidently when she saw that .

“Shouldn’t that be enough to slit Isaac Ivanov’s throat?”

He had no more questions about their preparations .

All he could do was nod .
