CH 174

. Reception of the Night (3)

A white mask engraved with geometric patterns.

It was a mask that symbolized 'unknown'.

This ?

Alice looked around.

Everyone was anxious to catch the attention of the powers, so no one cared about this.

The Empire and small and medium-sized forces including Penheimer seemed to be looking for an opportunity, but they did not openly approached whether it was because they kept each other in check or because of their face.

Don't worry. I've also spread a barrier that obstructs my view.

It's thorough. So what do you want me to do with this?

You can use it... and approach the Moorim side.

Jinhyuk blinked and pointed to one of the residents from Moorim.

He was in his early 40's and had a strong physique.

At first glance, he is a master with an extraordinary skill.

Is that the man?

Yeah. Heukpunghoe (黑黑酒会) Hoeju, a guy named Yang Myung.

The status window and copying conditions of the guy examined through 'Eyes of Gluttony' were perfect prey.

name: good name

Gender: Male

Age: 43

Level: 65

Strength 35 Dexterity 45 Stamina 26 mana 11 Strength 58

Occupation: fighter

Unique Ability: Black Sky

skill: Lv13 'Black Protection Priesthood (黑虎神拳)', Lv13 'Black Heavenly Treasure (黑天步)', Lv13 'Defense Forces', Lv11 'Blood Shooter Rage (血蛇修羅掌)'

[Copy condition: Good name is at Mugong level, but has a lower status than that. Because of this, the nurse is in a state of frantic about getting the ball. If you are invited to the opponent's stronghold after making an appealing offer, you will be able to copy one of the unique abilities and skills possessed by the nurse.]

It's a common story.

A life that has been despised and excluded from the mainstream for the sole reason of being from a branch.

Suffering from a sense of inferiority, Hoo-myeong was an easy prey in many ways.

'Besides, if you put Elise on this... You can further expand the radius of Unknown's activities.'

Recently, more and more people are digging into Unknown's whereabouts.

If it was Elise who could freely adjust the size with mana, it would be able to take over that role.

As long as you only wear a mask and act well, anyone could become Unknown.

'No need to bother editing skills or unique abilities.'

Elise's skill was such a striking type, so from now on, if you push it with that concept, that's all.

At the same time, I was able to copy even new abilities, so there was nothing to lose here.

The worries didn't last long.

Jinhyuk opened his mouth again.

Tell me that you can tell me about the final outcome of the sword. If I tell you that I have the secret book written by Chuhonsayeong, I will respond.

"If it's a wedding ceremony that original swordsmanship?"

That's right. That guy. Do you know the person from Yongke Moorim?

I've heard of the name. It's not like I've been living with a tight seal.

Chuhonsayeong was the founder of Chuhonsword and was commonly known as a swordsman in Moorim.

The leader of the Sapa who cut through Mount Tai with a single sword.

If it was the secret book that Eccentric left, it would be more than enough to make Yeongho-myeong's heavy butt wriggle.

But, do you really have it? That secret book? As far as I know, I heard it was sold out a long time ago?

Alice asked, as if quite surprised.

sure.

"If I had such a thing, I would have used it against Cheon Yoo-seong. Would I have kept it quiet?"

Still, Cheon Yu-seong is anxious to become a great soul swordsman.

One secret book could have made a second sweet potato that listens well.

In the end... it's cheating again.

It's a scam. I'm sure I'll go with a book written by Geomseong.

It's a bit different from what he expects, though.

In any case, it was true that the book was written by Geomseong.

Listen for a moment. If you say this, you'll get caught right away.

Jinhyuk put the plan in Alice's ear and informed him in detail.

Elise's pupils kept getting smaller and bigger repeatedly.

And after a few minutes.

Huh. I'm really glad I signed a contract with you.

Alice let out a long sigh of relief.

Huh? What do you mean?

"No, if I thought that if I met you as an enemy and I was treated like other guys, I think I would have died from a vase."

Revenge and Nabal for the rest of the heads of state.

Restoring the Ataraxia family's honor or whatever.

It would have been the first to collapse from high blood pressure right away.

Damn it.

Hoeju who leads the Black Punghoe, which is said to be a gathering of only the best of the martial arts.

As far as kwonbeop is concerned, he is one of the top masters in Moorim.

Whether it is the Moorimmaeng, the Protestant Church or the Magical Church, a strong person who is not pushed anywhere.

All of the modifiers were supporting the person named Yang Myung.

However.

Yang Myung thought that all of that was futile.

No matter how talented they were, there was a limit to what they could go up to as a colleague rather than a direct lineal.

After a lot of movement, his position was here.

'So it's probably going to be mobilized for chores like this.'

Yang's face contorted badly.

To get rid of the poop that Mo Yong-soo had put away.

I came here to recruit young chicks, who seem to be the only ones worth using.

'It would have been better if I had a fight with the thugs of the Empire in a cool way... .'

By the way, the law of uninhabited people to set the tax by force.

Wasn't it that the game was tilted without even seeing a proper fight after counting halfway and having a head-to-head fight?

Sheesh.

The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became.

Even after pouring a full bottle of the strong liquor on the table into his mouth, it was difficult to silence the anger that was boiling inside.

But right then.

someone came

From the perspective of Ho-myeong, who felt like everything was bothering him, of course, there was no choice but to make an unpleasant sound.

bang!

The glass of wine banged hard on the table.

"I have to go with alcohol, so if you're interested in us, you can talk to the handsome-looking nerd of Namgoong-se over there."

He waved his hand without looking at him.

His gaze was fixed on the glass being filled with a groan on the table.

However, the words that came out of the opponent's mouth.

I'm not interested in a weak kid who looks like he'll collapse if hit.

Yang Ho-myeong's teeth trembled wildly.

what?

I'm interested in people with decent skills.

You bastard! Do you know what the hell you're talking about!

No matter how much Namgung Sega gathers only nerds,

Only you can curse them.

This means that it is not in a position where players can speak freely.

I'm not feeling well, but I'm fine.

Even a cheeky human could make it impossible to breathe just by slightly opening the insides.

With that thought in mind, Yang Myung looked at his opponent.

You... are you?

pupils where earthquakes occur.

He was so surprised that he spilled his drink, but there was no time to worry about it.

How could you not know?

One of the players that all the factions in the middle class are frantically looking for right now.

Unknown...

That's right. That's what it's called.

Elise, wearing a white mask, nodded.

Since the voice was modulated through the barrier, Ho Myung did not even suspect that Elise was a woman.

"Obviously I didn't see you in the labyrinth. When did you come here?"

I was a little late. I'm not interested in frivolous Karma. It's about choosing a faction anyway, and it wasn't too difficult either.

Elise shrugged as if annoyed.

arrogant and arrogant.

It doesn't pay attention to other people, but it is the essence of Unknown's character to draw everyone's attention.

And Elise could play this character better than anyone else in the world.

Because it was enough to reduce even the divinities by one fold.

'indeed . I don't think it's fake.'

Yang's eyes narrowed.

The result of estimating the opponent using inner strength. The opponent was undoubtedly a strong man.

At first glance, I couldn't see the end of mana... It's never going to be an idiot's acting.

'There were suspicions that Kang Jin-hyuk was the same person as Unknown, but it was still a rumor.'

At the table next to me, I saw an abomination sipping a glass of champagne.

At least they are not the same person.

if so .

This is an opportunity.

Unknown is one of the few players that can be compared to Kang Jin-hyuk.

If they could attract such an unknown into their own power... .

Maybe we will see ourselves again in Moorim.

No, where is that?

In the worst case, it is possible that a huge reward may be given to yourself for making such an achievement.

In order to get beyond the bridle of collateral and obtain a higher status.

As I thought about it that far, Yang Myung's voice became softer.

Excuse me for this. As you may know, we're not doing very well these days.

I understand. But don't be too disappointed. I'm here for you who are struggling in hell.

Alice calmly sat down next to Yang Myung.

"I see if there's something you want to say but I want you to get it straight out of the box. I'm not the type of person who likes to measure things."

It's nice because it's cool. Actually, there's only one thing I want to suggest.

Elise pulled out an old book that looked very old from her bosom.

The secret book written by Geomseong. I want to exchange this for the 'Seoncheonjingi Nursing Team'.

That, that!

There was a reaction that was incomparable to the first time I saw Alice.

I had no choice but to do so.

A rare secret book that contains the final outcome of the Soul Sword.

One book of that old book might turn the whole of Moorim into a sea of blood.

'Seoncheonjingi health care group is precious, but it is not comparable to that.'

The best Giyeon that you must get even if you give a thousand gold... .

Now it appeared in front of the good name.

Why are you over there?

Is Jinhyuk over there?

Cheon Yu-seong and Teresa, who looked at the white mask, tilted her head.

As the two people who knew Unknown's identity, they realized at once that the person with Yang Myung was not Jinhyuk.

"Ah that one?"

Jinhyuk scratched his cheek.

Hmm .

How do I explain this?

I'm putting salt on the wound.

It is also sprinkled with coarse sesame salt.

The person concerned does not yet know how painful the environment he will be in, so it will feel like walking in heaven right now.

It will be only for a while, though.

If I'm curious, can you tell me in detail?

No, you don't need it. You must be planning something crazy again.

Cheon Yoosung frowned.

It's like you never want to know the details.

More than that, did Jinhyuk decide where to sign a contract?

It's a contract... .

yes it was

The key to this Masquerade is to decide which faction to join.

That determines how quickly and efficiently you can climb the middle of the tower.

And Jinhyuk had already decided where to go with him.

timely.

[Players and residents, please start 'choice' from now on.]

Rick on the second floor used voice amplification magic.

Now that we've seen each other enough, it means stop making decisions.

With Rick's words, the air inside changed once.

The laughter and chatter disappeared in an instant. Instead, the place began to fill with tension.

And.

Naturally, among them, the place that attracted the most attention was fixed.

jerk.

Whoops.

Rumble!

As if waiting, several footsteps were heard at the same time.

Seven in total... .

'It took a lot more than I thought.'

The corners of Jinhyuk's lips went up.
