Episode 262
Of course, that was an impossible technique to rewind.
In the first place, rewinding was the ability to eliminate the second stage of ‘rewind’ in ‘attack – reverse – attack’.
This means that you can only select ‘attack – attack’ in succession, and you cannot launch two attacks at the same time.
Nevertheless, the reason why the viewers thought they fired the attack at the same time was precisely because of the time acceleration.
Time acceleration is applied, and while the afterimage is visible, the attack is fired in succession without turning the body.
“Great-“
Where the initial vicious momentum had gone, the enemy fit retreated behind the main dance.
A look of embarrassment was evident on his face.
He had no doubt about his victory, but was later hit in the back of the head.
“Rewind time…! Damn it. Were you a top fit?”
The fit man muttered like a spit.
Hearing his mutter, Dohyun narrowed his eyes.
This is because a new concept has slowly emerged.
‘Top’ fit.
In addition, if there is a higher fitter, of course there will also be a lower fitter.
And what separates the upper and lower ranks is probably whether time can be turned back or not.
After watching Do-hyeon’s rewind, the word ‘higher fit’ came out of the person’s mouth, so it was a guess.
“‘Chronos’ fitters fall into three categories: lows that can only accelerate, mids that can slow down, and highs that can rewind. Players are high-fits. It’s a little different to be exact, but anyway.”
“Aha. That’s right.”
“Yeah. I think it was made that way for the level design. The kids who came out at the beginning made it a little easier. It was still difficult, but haha.”
-I don’t know what balancing is hahaha
-If you go later, the top ranks will also appear as enemies, so it’s disgusting hahahahahahaha
– How did you make it to break?
Do-hyeon’s guess wasn’t wrong.
Because it almost coincided with Dumdum’s explanation of ‘Chronos Zero’ through various investigations.
It’s really absurd to hear the sound of a dog poop after failing to balance the topics that are grandly divided into lower, middle, and upper ranks, but that’s what it is.
“Even if you’re a top fit, you can’t lose to someone who’s just woken up!”
-Nope···. It’s not just a top fit…
– Your opponent is Kratos! ㅜㅜ
– Are you saying that the overnight dog is not afraid?
-I like being beaten by these naughty kids.
The fit person who had once again strengthened his resolve raised his sword.
But he never wielded his sword.
This is because the fighting spirit of Do-hyeon, who realized that the opponent is an opponent who cannot rewind time and, according to the expression of the suitable person, ‘rewind time’, has cooled down.
There’s no way you’ll be able to satisfy a weak opponent if you’re excited.
So, Dohyun decided to end it.
as soon as possible.
‘If you go up to the top fit, you’ll still be able to fight in moderation. maybe.’
Dohyun did her best for the first time.
His body, which had been accelerated by time, moved faster than the enemy fit and burrowed in.
The lower-ranking and higher-fitting people don’t just increase the special abilities they can use.
Basically, the output of the ability that can be used is also quite different.
What that means is that even with the same ‘time acceleration’, the upper fitter accelerates faster than the lower fitter!
Because of this, he was able to penetrate into the range of the dagger before the fitter could react.
Confused at the sight of Do-hyun approaching right in front of him, the fit person tried to step back.
But Do-hyeon is not the one to keep an eye on it.
The gray eyes of ‘Kronos’ were young in Do-hyeon’s eyes, who was staring at the right person.
A different kind of light from what I’ve seen before!
The power of that light was immediately revealed.
The fast-moving fitter was instantly slowed down by time acceleration.
It was a movement as if it were carrying a weight.
In fact, it was almost as if it was carrying weights.
A weight called ‘time slowing’.
Do-hyeon, who had only used acceleration so far, was the first to use deceleration to draw a suitable person.
– It’s a time slowing hacker;
-If you use it with acceleration, it’s a scam.
-I do it fast and the other person slows it down hahaha
– What if I put a rewind here?
The military knife that Do-hyeon threw like a hand was stuck in the foot of the person who was slowing down.
Because it was a throw with the power of acceleration, the military knife was completely embedded with only the handle.
It is said that it pierced the foot and pierced the ground.
This made it impossible for the enemy fit to retreat.
Before the contemplative enemy fit could take any action, Dohyun moved first.
Dohyeon took a deep breath and swung the remaining military knife in a diagonal line.
The enemy fit tries to dodge it by twisting it somehow, but it’s not an attack that can be easily dodged.
The blade of a military knife mercilessly passed through the victim’s chest.
And in the next moment, Do-hyeon was aiming and stabbing the heart of a suitable person with a military knife.
With the very military knife that had just passed through the chest of the fittest.
It was the power of rewinding time.
The moment I thought that a military knife would pierce my chest.
Dohyun was already trying another attack.
A military knife, held in reverse, cuts through the thighs of the fit person.
And attack again.
At the same time as ‘successful attack’, he turned back time with ‘rewind’ and launched a series of attacks.
It was a series of attacks that didn’t leave a gap so terribly!
Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Whoops! Whoops!
The sound of military knives slicing the fittest with little difference resounded.
Do-hyeon’s body, which took time to accelerate, was used until rewinding, so it looked like afterimages were left.
I’d rather not be so afraid of the monster of the three-headed six.
“While using up to time acceleration, slowing the opponent down, and rewinding at the same time as the attack succeeds?”
“Uh… is that the battle the developers want?”
“First of all, I’m using three abilities at the same time – no, but whoever can do that without being big!”
– Is this the battle the development team was hoping for?
-If this is what they were hoping for, it’s cheap even if you hear the sound of dog poop hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
– Maybe hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
“Oh, there’s one. It’s right next to us.”
That’s probably what the ‘Chronos Zero’ devs wanted.
No, it was definitely more of a battle than that.
······· Actually, the word one-sided violence is more appropriate than combat, but anyway.
Dum-Dum sees L-U in full concentration mode next to him and taps his forehead! By the time seventh, all battles had come to an end.
When Dohyun finally stopped.
The fitter was not already alive.
Because the fit person’s body was too weak to withstand more than a dozen cuts.
The fit person who died standing up fell backwards with a thump and a sound. Do-hyeon, who turned the military knife one turn in his hand, muttered softly.
“…is this how it feels?”
-When did you say this line hahaha
-Ouch
– What do you keep feeling?
Viewers giggled and laughed at Dohyeon’s ‘Kingrun Gadgim’, which came out after a long time.
Because I knew what the reaction would be.
Having recovered even the military knife that was holding the person’s feet, he hurriedly walked into the last room.
As soon as they entered the room, the armed turret fired bullets at the player who had defeated the boss and was at ease, but it didn’t mean much.
To Do-hyeon, who has superhuman cognitive abilities, such a surprise attack is meaningless.
Because in order to defeat him, he had to succeed in a ‘unknowingly unstoppable’ attack.
Lightly neutralizing the armed turret, he found the mission-objective documents in the room.
“This is it.”
Finding the necessary documents was not difficult.
Because the papers were glowing as if they were telling you to take them.
However, the documents on the desk did not exist except for the first few pages, as if someone was trying to get rid of them in a hurry.
Even some of them were damaged afterward.
Dohyeon picked up the document and looked at the contents written on it.
[‘Kronos’ investigation report.
This report records the investigation into ‘Kronos’ secretly developed and used by the state.
* What is ‘Kronos’?
A drug developed by ‘Dr. Tikan’, the main research target.
Grants the person taking it the ability to control time.
However, in order to obtain the ability by taking it, you must have a constitution suitable for the drug.
(Currently under investigation regarding the constitution)
It is determined that the ability and strength that can be obtained vary according to the fitness rate for the drug.
Currently, ‘Dr. Tarkan’ classifies suitable candidates into low, middle, and high according to the fit rate.
(syncopation)
······ According to ‘Dr. Tikan”s guess, there is a higher-level fit above the higher-ranking one.
It is not yet known what kind of ability a suitable person at this stage will be able to exert, but it is clear that it has a higher level of risk than that of a high-ranking person.
A related research project is under way as confidential.
With the information obtained at the risk, some high-ranking people were experimented with to become ‘high-ranking people (tentative name of Dr. Tikan)’—
(The content after that is damaged and cannot be read)]
It was a very interesting document.
Perhaps the fun of guessing the story by combining the documents stolen in this way or the information leaked by the enemy is another fun part of ‘Chronos Zero’.
Dohyun remembered some of the contents of the document.
Things like ‘Dr. Tikan’, who is the main research target, and ‘higher fit’ created through experiments.
It looked like it could be used to guess the story later.
Do-hyeon took the documents and headed out of the facility.
If it had been an ordinary infiltration, it would have been quiet to come in and take the documents and leave.
However, Do-hyeon said, “Infiltration is infiltration, but if there is no witness, it is infiltration! Anyway, so!’, so it wasn’t difficult for him to get out.
Those who should have stopped him had already disappeared when he ‘infiltrated’ here, and the facility was almost destroyed.
“Hello, Agent ‘Kronos’. My name is Lieutenant Synth.”
When Do-hyeon returned to the place where he had started again, a woman in an officer’s uniform who was there said to him.
The woman who introduced herself as a synth lieutenant was wearing a military cap with her light grayish brown hair tied tightly.
She continued with a light salute and greeting.
“You just have to hand the papers over to me.”
The synth lieutenant with a cold expression on his face reached out toward Dohyun.
Dohyun handed her the documents he brought from the base of ‘Libria’.
She nodded her head as she read the few papers.
“It’s a bit damaged, but the investigation report is correct. It will give you a rough idea of how far they’ve been investigating, so it will be of great help in spying out.”
“Good job. The mission ends here. If you get in the capsule, we will transfer it.”
Lieutenant Synth pointed to the capsule behind her.
But Dohyun did not get on the capsule and looked at her quietly.
Of course, that wasn’t really the reason why she had the look that he liked.
The reason he looked at her quietly was because of one question.
“What if we attack this synth lieutenant here, folks?”
-? what kind of crazy is this 😉
-I’m trying to find a hidden route again hahaha
-But the fact that it’s not an event cutscene is something worth trying, isn’t it?
-uh? I know? Is it worth a try?
