Episode 70

70. I think the odds of winning are quite high.

Kang Moo-hyuk set up a laptop and projector in the headquarters lobby and gathered the hunters together.

He waited for the hunters to find a comfortable place to sit or stand, then projected the image onto a white wall.

“I didn’t have time to prepare separately, so I just posted a map. I hope you understand. Now, I will brief you on the operation to destroy the orc army.”

What was projected on the wall was a map of Bukpocheon centered around Sanjeong Lake.

“As you all know, most of the route down from Cheorwon is a minefield. According to our intelligence, the orcs seem to have figured out that there are no mines on asphalt roads. Therefore, we will assume that we will move along the road.”

Kang Moo-hyuk held a laser pointer for presentation and pointed to the north side of Sanjeong Lake.

“First, National Route 387. At the end of the road, there is Gungye-ro connected to Cheorwon. It is a narrow road, but it is the fastest way to get here directly from the Togyo Reservoir, where the orc base is located. Next is west. National Route 78. It is a bit of a detour, but it is connected to Cheorwon through Yeongbuk-myeon. The road is also wide, so it has the advantage of being easy to move large forces. The field of vision is sufficient, so it is also easy to attack the headquarters.”

Kang Moo-hyuk used his laptop to write numbers on the map.

“About 200 on 387, about 800 on 78. The orcs are moving in two groups. The target is here, Sanjeong Lake.”

Then someone raised a hand.

“Honestly, isn’t it time to retreat at this point?”

“Thank you for your keen question, Team Leader Cho Chung-hyun.”

Kang Moo-hyuk spoke in a thorny voice.

Jo Chung-hyun flinched when he felt that. He also knew what he had done before. He went to get the achievement of catching orcs because he couldn’t resist the pressure of being kicked out of the guild, but it was an unavoidable mistake that a hole was created in the encirclement.

So, since I was already being hated, I decided to make my presence known by making a full-fledged tackle.

Lately, his behavior has been off-putting, making it difficult to trust Taesoo Manman, the second son of the Taesung Group. He seems to think of Kang Moo-hyuk as a better word.

Jo Chung-hyun had to show that he was a more loyal horse, and at the same time, he had to constantly impress upon his superiors that he had influence in the guild.

‘Tch! How did I end up like this? When I came to my senses, I found myself in a corner. This must all be because of that Kang Moo-hyuk.’

When Kang Mu-hyeok did not answer any further, he gritted his teeth and opened his mouth first.

“Over a thousand evolved orcs. I believe our guild’s strength is still lacking to fight them head-on.”

“That’s right. It’ll be dangerous. We might end up buried here. Well then, shall we retreat?”

“… … .”

Jo Chung-hyun kept his mouth shut as Kang Mu-hyeok easily overturned the plan. It was difficult to figure out the other person’s intentions based on just their expressions.

The other members were no different. They secretly wanted to retreat, but they hesitated because they didn’t know what the leader was trying to say.

As seen in Do Kyung-hoon’s example, Kang Moo-hyuk was a ruthless person. He didn’t even blink an eye while cutting down those who had been eating guild food for a long time since the Taesung Guild days.

What was even more surprising was that Do Kyung-hoon was pushed out without even making a sound. That rough and violent person.

Although his outward appearance was gentle, everyone whispered that Kang Moo-hyuk was a tyrant even greater than Do Kyung-hoon.

Kang Moo-hyuk paused for a moment before breaking the uncomfortable silence.

“If we retreat, Nampocheon is just around the corner. When seven orcs come in, there will be incomparable chaos and casualties. Then, should we run away from there too?”

“So, by uniting with other guilds… … .”

“The power to deal with a thousand orcs won’t arrive in time. Even if it could, it’s doubtful it would arrive right away. How many guilds would risk facing a large army of orcs while sacrificing their own power? It’s truly shameful. The current reality of guilds in South Korea is that they prioritize the safety and interests of their own guilds over the lives of citizens. Put aside those dreams and hopeful wishes. There will be no support.”

“Then what are you going to do? Are you going to kill all of our members?”

Jo Chung-hyun couldn’t hold it in anymore and shouted. He was annoyed by Kang Mu-hyeok’s way of speaking, which seemed to constantly avoid the main point and make fun of him.

“We will win. We just have to win.”

“So how?!”

Kang Moo-hyuk pointed to one corner of Sanjeong Lake on the map with a laser pointer.

[Nakcheonji Waterfall]

“Here it is. I’m going to blow this place up.”

* * *

“That’s all.”

As soon as Kang Mu-hyeok finished explaining the operation, the lobby of the headquarters was suddenly filled with silence.

Even the new members who were busy growling when they gathered together couldn’t open their mouths.

As everyone remained silent, Baek Hyeong-gyu, unable to bear it any longer, stabbed the side of his colleague next to him.

“Brother Dongpa, ask me something.”

“What, what?”

“If we do it that way, we’ll have to take over the center. It’s going to be a mess.”

“But, in terms of the current guild power, does that seem right?”

“No, what did this guy do wrong? He’s accepting that?”

“Honestly, you think so too. In terms of skill, he’s a mid-level player, and he’s been working together for a long time. Now that Do Kyung-hoon’s group is gone, would you rather have Noh Song-rin, who’s better at catching people than monsters, or would you rather have some rookies? It’s just us.”

“Who doesn’t know that?!”

Baek Hyeong-gyu shouted at Na Dong-pa, who was just repeating the same old thing. He realized a moment too late that he had shouted too loudly and covered his mouth with his hand, but the guild members had already gathered their attention.

Naturally, it caught Kang Mu-hyeok’s eye as well.

“Yes. Hunter Baek Hyeong-gyu. Do you have any questions?”

Baek Hyeong-gyu scratched his head, cleared his throat with a cough, and stood up.

“Ahem, nothing else… Is that operation really possible?”

Na Dong-pa laughed from the side.

‘Isn’t that what you originally wanted to ask?’

Baek Hyeong-gyu ignored Shichimi and focused on Kang Mu-hyeok.

“What part are you concerned about?”

“I understand the concept of attacking with water… but I was worried that the orcs would be caught if I just broke down a dam. I’ve never seen this kind of tactic in real combat or in any textbooks.”

“If I had to give an example, it would be the Battle of Salsu. Did it go too far? Let’s just do something like the strategy of war. The Three Kingdoms would be fine too.”

“The opponent is not a human, but a monster.”

“Oh. I guess I didn’t explain it well enough.”

Kang Mu-hyeok nodded as if he understood and continued to explain.

“Before it became a special area, Sanjeong Lake underwent maintenance work to supply agricultural water. Thanks to this, its freshwater volume has increased considerably. In addition, due to the heavy rain caused by the typhoon this fall, it is almost full. The lake has an area of ​​240,000 square meters and contains 460,000 tons of water. It is easy to understand if you think of it as the size of about 50 soccer fields. We will lure the orcs and blow up the water gate, and then simultaneously blow up the Nakcheonji Falls. Considering the height of the waterfall, even an ogre wouldn’t be able to withstand being swept away by this water. I think we have a pretty good chance of winning. Are you curious?”

“No, that’s not it… … .”

It was a plan that was tiresome just to hear.

When did you calculate it in such detail?

Judging from the way he spoke as if he had been waiting for this, it must have been something he had already prepared for. Maybe it was one of the operations he had been thinking about since he recaptured this place.

‘By the way. Doesn’t this guy even think about the headquarters building?’

If the water gate were to be broken, the headquarters, which had been remodeled into a resort, would also be swept away by the water. It was obvious that the headquarters building would not be safe, as the water was pouring from a lake with a circumference of 3 kilometers.

After spending so much money on maintenance, he’s going to blow it all up in one go. I can’t tell if he’s a big shot or if he’s just clueless.

Most of the hunters in the lobby thought the same thing, but they couldn’t bring themselves to say it out loud.

‘You’re going to blow up the headquarters to catch an orc? Haha… It’s just like the rumors say. He’s crazy about hunting monsters. I just let it slide, but it’s worse than I thought.’

Baek Hyeong-gyu didn’t have the courage to ask the question he really wanted to ask.

Questions like why should they, as neutral guild members, stand at the center and fight against the orc army?

The reason given by Na Dong-pa was reasonable, but Baek Hyeong-gyu thought differently.

‘Aren’t we going to end up like Do Kyung Hoon? Or are we just testing? It’s time to make our path clear.’

I felt like if I kept nagging at him, I would hear things I shouldn’t have heard.

Kang Moo-hyuk nodded as if he was satisfied with his explanation and gave additional instructions.

“Hunters, please do your personal maintenance thoroughly. Each party leader should check out a good hiding spot in advance from their assigned location. Pay attention to party tactics so that you can quickly defeat the orcs individually when they are swept away by the water. Please be sure to camouflage yourself thoroughly and wait until the reconnaissance party contacts you. Oh, and those without messaging skills, please take a short-range radio. Team Leader An Ji-il will distribute it, so please familiarize yourself with how to use it once more. That’s all.”

As soon as Kang Mu-hyeok left his seat, the lobby became a flea market.

Among them, the new members who had a connection, big or small, or bad relationship with Kang Mu-hyeok were particularly noisy.

“Wow, look how brutal it is. When I first heard the rumors, I thought they were lies. Now that I see it, it seems real. Destroying a lake to catch orcs? Man, he’s more aggressive than he looks.”

“What is it? What is the rumor?”

“Titan Guild. When the leader was the strategy team leader there, I heard a rumor that they blew up the entire mana stone mine to kill one boss.”

“Hey, that’s too much. If it’s a mana stone mine, it’s a Nodaji of Nodaji.”

“That’s right. That’s right. What kind of crazy person uses mana stones like that?”

“No, that’s true.”

Baek Seong-bin, who had been listening to the conversation from the side, couldn’t stand it anymore and intervened. For some reason, he didn’t like the fact that Kang Mu-hyeok was being ignored.

“Really? How would you know that?”

“I’m from the Taegeuk Guild. They’re rivals of the Titan Guild, so I always keep my ears open for news from them.”

In reality, that was all I heard from Jo Ik-jun, but even if it wasn’t for that, it was a famous raid that everyone in the Yeouido Guild would have heard of at least once.

“There are a few other raids led by Captain Kang, but compared to them, Sanjeong Lake is just a drop in the bucket.”

“Wow, you’re a chaste woman. Anyone who sees you would know that you have that kind of taste. You suck up to Director Kang so much?”

The one who meddled sarcastically was Seo Dae-chi.

He felt bad just looking at Baek Seong-bin. There had been a previous incident where they had been in trouble, but first of all, he didn’t like every single one of her actions.

“Seodaechi. If you don’t know the captain properly, you’ll be crushed.”

“Hey, you’ve become really foul-mouthed in just a few days. You act like an ordinary person. But who doesn’t know the boss? I think I know better than you.”

“what?”

“May I give you a piece of advice? Chief Kang, don’t trust that guy. I’m not even a bad guy compared to that guy.”

“Hey, what are you talking about?”

“Don’t rush things. Take your time. There’s also the fun in learning things slowly.”

Seodaechi raised his goggles slightly, flashed his white eyes for a moment, then giggled and left the place.

Baek Seong-bin looked at his back as he walked away with an uneasy feeling.

‘This kid. Now he’s talking nonsense. Now, if it’s not raining, it must be the captain who called him because he has nowhere to go.’

Seo Dae-chi, the white-eyed man standing precariously between the hunter and the villain.

Baek Seong-bin resented him for being ungrateful.

“Just try to cause an accident. I’ll finish you off.”

* * *

Joo Seah looked up at the helicopters swarming overhead.

The guild emblems painted on the floor were familiar.

The emblems she knew from playing in the Tier Guild were mostly from large guilds. Of those, the one from the Slayer Guild stood out the most.

She furrowed her brow as if she didn’t like it.

“I didn’t know the captain would do something like this. It’s quite ingenious, but… Is that the only way to properly attack? Everyone is competing and doing whatever they want.”

The orcs that had remained in the village were gathering in the direction that Jusea’s gaze landed. He was startled by the sudden appearance of the helicopter and screamed.

Hunters jumped out of the helicopter that approached over the orcs’ heads.

The skills of the hunters who descended holding onto a rope as if rappelling shot out from the air. The orcs fled in fear, but the elite hunters of the top guild could not miss the opening. They slaughtered the orcs as soon as they landed.

Hunters disembarked from the helicopter, carrying their equipment, in a flash securing a landing spot. Several orcs threw spears, but were caught by the hunters who had just opened the door and gotten out.

“Seongseonje… is here?”

Although it was quite a distance, Seongseonje turned his gaze precisely and looked at Joo Se-ah as if he was aware of her presence.

Seong Seon-je took off his sunglasses and opened his mouth towards Joo Se-ah.

Although she couldn’t hear anything, Joo Se Ah seemed to know what he was saying. He always provoked her with the same words.

‘Don’t be so pushy this time, little lady.’

Snap!

“Okay, Seongseonje. Let’s see who wins this time!”

* * *

“Let’s not fight this time, Captain Joo Se-ah.”

“What are you doing, team leader?”

“Just. Say hello to someone you know. But why are they so murderous? Haha.”
