Chapter 113
“Wow.”
Da-hong in her white sporty outfit let out a short exclamation.
“That actually works.”
Shooting the zipline gun at the back of the vehicle and infiltrating by riding the rope.
When Da-hong first heard Hae-rang’s strategy, she couldn’t believe it.
Zipline guns were usually items used on fixed structures.
“To pull that off, not only would you need core strength, but your sense of balance would have to be at an inhuman level.”
She had thought it was impossible.
But seeing it demonstrated right before her eyes, she had no choice.
She had to change her thinking.
Bang! Bang!
As the gunshots from the Win 94 rang out, the Porter’s speed gradually decreased,
and finally came to a complete stop in the middle of the road.
A duo that chose a car before weapons.
That’s why they were helpless against gun-wielding attackers.
Actually, you couldn’t blame their strategy.
Many Survival Ground users actually ranked cars as their first priority.
They just hadn’t encountered a user who would ‘board’ a car through such unconventional means.
【’Gwanjong Cheonma’ has eliminated ‘Detective Kim Jun-il’!】
【’Gwanjong Cheonma’ has eliminated ‘Boy Conan’!】
“Is this the 10th kill?”
Da-hong whistled as she walked toward the vehicle.
The two guys they just eliminated didn’t have weapons, so that was understandable.
But Hae-rang had defeated four armed duo teams entirely ‘by himself’.
It was natural that 1 vs 2 was harder than 1 vs 1 vs 1.
But Hae-rang was accomplishing that difficult task as if it were nothing.
“Now it’s time to begin.”
Time to properly perform her driving role.
Da-hong stopped mid-way through opening the driver’s seat and looked up.
“Why are you still there?”
The space where the two people had been attacked earlier.
Hae-rang was still in the cargo area.
“Looking at this Porter’s structure, I don’t think I need to be in the passenger seat.”
“Huh? Then you’re going to stay there the whole time?”
“This side is more convenient for shooting, and especially good when using the zipline gun. I can skip the process of opening the passenger door.”
“Huh.”
Definitely.
His thinking is on a different level from ordinary people.
That’s why he thinks about beating bears with his bare hands.
“Alright. Let’s head straight to the Secret Room first. That’s the main thing in Taego.”
“Secret Room. That’s an interesting name.”
“The fun of collecting items there is really good. But you can’t just enter it normally – you have to find a special key.”
“Seeing that there are conditions for entry, there must be a lot of good items like Da-hong said.”
“What do you want to do? Should we look for the key first? Or head to the Secret Room?”
“Let’s go to the Secret Room.”
Grin.
Da-hong stepped on the accelerator with a bright smile.
It was a rare moment when their opinions aligned.
Not only herself, but if she asked any other Singularity member, the answer would have been the same.
[Why bother looking for the key? Just take out whoever found the key.]
Of course, it’s easier said than done – it’s only possible if you have strong confidence that you can eliminate your opponent.
And both Singularity and Hae-rang possessed such confidence.
Hae-rang’s refreshing voice flowed through the broken glass window behind the driver’s seat.
“I’ve never seen this type of car before. Can you only see it in Taego?”
“That’s right. The Porter and Pony we’re riding now. These two vehicles are exclusive items for the Taego map. They were modeled after old Korean vehicles.”
“As befitting a Korean game company, you really bring out Korean characteristics well. Looking at the company’s tendencies, I think you must be looking forward to the Korean team’s performance in the Capsule Cup.”
“Haha. I think so too. Actually, the CEO there has quite exceptional patriotism.”
Though she was smiling with her mouth, Da-hong’s heart wasn’t very comfortable.
Whenever they went to international competitions, it was defeat after defeat.
Singularity was completely failing to meet the expectations of not only Kraft’s CEO but also their domestic fans.
Da-hong, of course, couldn’t be free from that responsibility either.
“‘Survival Ground’ has been consistently selected as a Capsule Cup designated game since its release. It’s a natural progression since it’s a work that ranks in the top 5 popular games worldwide. Like other games, but the fans’ resentment about ‘PUBG’ performance is very great.”
“Korean people can’t be bad at a game made in Korea. Is that what you mean?”
“Exactly. You understand well.”
Da-hong thought Hae-rang was good at reading between the lines.
But that was experience rather than reading between the lines.
[Such impudence!]
[How can plum blossoms bloom from that person’s sword!]
[Just how far does he intend to humiliate our sect!]
[To create more petals than the Plum Blossom Sovereign’s Plum Blossom Heaven Talent…!]
The martial duel he fought with the masters of Mount Hua Sect.
Hae-rang bloomed hundreds of plum blossoms on that spot.
Mae Jong-hwa, who was Mount Hua Sect’s greatest master and also an elder, forgot his dignity and wept bitterly where he sat.
Using more excellent Plum Blossom Sword Technique with just swordsmanship learned by watching over someone’s shoulder – how must his feelings have been?
After that day, Hae-rang stopped imitating other sects’ swordsmanship.
In such cases, it often drew resentment rather than praise.
In many ways, it was an anecdote strongly imprinted in Hae-rang’s memory.
“Since others are showing off their skills in my own home’s inner room, it’s no wonder the public is disappointed.”
“I think so too. It’s a homework that Singularity needs to solve going forward. The problem is those damn bastards…”
If they can’t do well, they should at least work hard.
There wasn’t particularly any desperation visible in those guys.
“They don’t show even a speck of passion. If only we had a few people like Mr. Hae-rang…”
Da-hong closed her mouth as if she realized her mistake.
Hae-rang already had a history of rejecting Singularity’s proposal.
This kind of conversation could put a burden on him.
“It’s fine, so don’t worry about it. Since we’re on the topic, there’s something I’d like to ask.”
“What is it?”
“You seem to have quite a lot of complaints about the group called Singularity, so what’s the reason you keep staying there?”
“Huh? Well, that’s…”
Da-hong couldn’t finish her sentence this time either.
She hadn’t realized it before, but suddenly she felt embarrassed.
About herself grumbling yet remaining complacent within the group called Singularity.
“How fascinating. Every time I talk with Gwanjong Cheonma, I feel like I’m facing parts of myself I didn’t even know existed.”
“What does that inner self tell you?”
Quietly enough that the viewers wouldn’t hear.
Da-hong spoke in a small voice.
“That I’m a coward who’s all talk. I don’t like what the Singularities are doing, but I don’t have the guts to actually bring about change. That’s who I am.”
“I don’t think you need to blame yourself like that. Changing a group is harder than creating something new.”
Was it just her imagination?
Da-hong discovered something in Hae-rang’s voice.
Conviction born from experience.
It felt like such things were contained within it.
Da-hong couldn’t help but ask.
“By any chance, do you have similar experience? Of trying to change an organization or group, then creating something entirely new instead?”
“Well.”
Hae-rang neither confirmed nor denied it.
He simply fixed his mysterious gaze on the sky.
“Time flies when you’re talking. That place over there is the secret room closest to Haemusa.”
“Indeed. Your driving skills are excellent. This is the first time I’ve experienced such fast and precise driving.”
“Th-thanks for the compliment, but I don’t want to be praised for my driving anymore.”
Da-hong’s voice carried a flustered emotion.
She could predict what kind of reaction the viewers would show to Hae-rang’s comment.
Her prediction was very accurate.
-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Look at him praising his driving skills ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Da-hong’s driving is really top-notch
-She even participated in racing competitions in real life, right?
-Now that I think about it, she’s a perfect match with Gwanjong?
-True lol the thing attention seekers need most is a designated driver
-The bad expression “substitute driver” is a no-no. We use the term “bio robot”!
-Is “bio robot” supposed to be some kind of polite way to put it? lololol
-So freaking funny lol but that would probably feel even worse
-Don’t tell me he recruited Da-hong because of these driving skills…?
-There he goes having another brain fart again ㅡㅡ
-Did Da-hong get shot? Would she duo just to be someone’s driver?
-Hahaha like the other Singularities would just sit back and do nothing
Seemingly concerned, Da-hong asked while driving.
“By any chance… there aren’t any weird comments in the chat window, are there?”
“Hmm.”
It had been two months since coming to this world.
Hae-rang was gradually getting used to the ways of this place.
“Nothing special. They’re just praising your driving skills.”
Da-hong quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Then she looks around in all directions like a meerkat.
“This Secret Room hasn’t been cleared yet. The door is closed. Should we park the car nearby and wait?”
“No. There’s a better method.”
One of Hae-rang’s ears twitches slightly.
A super sense that neither the viewers nor even Da-hong could perceive.
It was the moment ‘Absolute Sound Sense’ was activated.
* * *
“What?”
Two players racing toward them on a buggy.
‘Haggis’ and ‘Johnsons’ opened their eyes wide like owls.
They had been celebrating after obtaining the Secret Room key from the start.
But there were already guys who had parked their car in front of the ‘Secret Room’ door.
“What’s going on? Wasn’t there supposed to be only one Secret Room door each?”
“That’s what I thought too? What is this?”
‘Johnsons’, who had been tilting his head in confusion, soon revealed his yellowed teeth.
“Those bastards. Don’t they know the Taego Map well? That’s why they’re camping in front of the door like that?”
“Hmm, is that so? Since it’s a Placement Match, that makes sense.”
‘Haggis’ and ‘Johnsons’ were Platinum Tier.
On their way here, they had encountered ‘Abyss’ and Bronze Scrubs, recording quite a few kills.
If this were the Platinum Tier, they might have felt something was off,
but the fact that it was a Placement Match dulled their wariness.
“Still, just in case, let’s shoot that thing.”
“Okay.”
At ‘Johnsons” suggestion, ‘Haggis’ pulls out a weapon from his bag.
A weapon with considerable explosive power.
It was a Panzer.
“Farewell, idiots. Kya kya!”
Whoosh!
The Panzer bullet that ‘Haggis’ fired hits the Porter directly.
Boom!
Bright red flames erupted and the Porter’s body flew high into the air.
Whether inside the car or standing outside it.
It was an impact that would inevitably kill anyone.
However,
“…Why is it so quiet?”
“Right. Why isn’t the kill log showing up?”
“Maybe they ditched their car over there and ran?”
“No way. What kind of idiots would abandon their car? They’re not disruption trolls or anything.”
“Here I am.”
A strange voice suddenly came from behind them.
It was a clear voice without a speck of dust,
yet at the same time carried a chilling coldness that made their hearts freeze.
“What the hell…!”
Bang!
Before they could even aim their guns, Hae-rang’s Win 94 fired first.
‘Haggis’ instantly fell into an unconscious state.
“Grr…!”
‘Johnsons’ let go of the steering wheel and grabbed his gun.
But being in the driver’s seat, his movements were inevitably slow.
This too was within Hae-rang’s plan.
That’s why he had knocked out ‘Johnsons’ who was in the passenger seat first.
Bang!
Pop!
This time two gunshots rang out.
The bullet fired by ‘Johnsons’ hit the passenger seat of the buggy.
The bullet from Hae-rang’s Win 94 struck precisely into ‘Johnsons” heart.
“Urgh.”
With a single groan, ‘Johnsons’ slammed his head against the handle.
【’Gwanjong Cheonma’ has eliminated ‘Johnsons’!】
【’Gwanjong Cheonma’ has eliminated ‘Haggis’!】
【Current kill ranking: 1st place Gwanjong Cheonma (14 kills) 2nd place…】
Hae-rang had subdued two people in an instant.
He could have been satisfied with the achievement he accomplished alone.
Without any change in expression, he searched through the two people’s belongings.
“Here it is.”
Then he smiled with satisfaction.
Before he knew it, the Secret Room key was clutched in his hand.
