Episode 282
It was as if he had been able to match the shouts of the broadcasters.
The profiles of the players who will play the first match of the round of 32, Dohyeon and Wang Tau, came to mind on the hologram panel at the stadium.
The profiles of the two were very contrasting.
First of all, it was the length.
Wang Tau’s profile is extremely long, as it is filled with various and splendid careers, from winning the Chinese league to winning the MVP.
On the other hand, Dohyun’s profile had only three lines.
Three lines: ‘Triggers win’, ‘Korea’s strongest physics champion’, and ‘All-Star Game Sword God Raid Participation’.
Less than a tenth of the length of the tens of lines of King Tau was all it took.
Even Wang Tau was marked as a professional and Dohyeon as an amateur.
Comparing only the profiles, it wouldn’t feel strange if Wang Tau killed Do-hyeon.
There was no way that the broadcasters, who were talking in full swing, could not help but pay attention to it.
“Um- Am I the only one surprised that Kratos is still not a pro?”
“Actually, it’s true that you’re an amateur. Because you don’t belong to a team, and you’ve never played in a regular league. As you can see from my career, I’ve only participated in event matches.”
– World’s best amateur
-Why aren’t you debuting! ㅜㅜ
-I didn’t say that I was going to ride the King Verge route anyway;
-I know that ㅜㅜ I’m really sleepy even for just one year, so can’t you just turn me into a pro?
“He was mentioned a lot in so many ways, so I thought he was a professional!”
Kim Han-ul said in a slightly embarrassed tone.
Come to think of it, his words weren’t entirely wrong.
After Dohyeon achieved the Trickers championship, he mostly showed his face in the big ‘Psykic Wars’ competition.
It was the same with the Physical Strongest Match and the All-Star Game.
Since I was so active there, I naturally thought of myself as a professional player.
“Amateur? Is this a typographical error?”
“Are you kidding me? Hey. What? Really? Huh-“
This embarrassment was not unique to Kim Han-ul.
The other players who were preparing for their next match were also shocked when they saw Dohyun’s profile—I couldn’t see the actual game details, but it was possible to see the profile—
The content itself is quite concise, and even the notation is amateurish, so it is inevitable.
However, the players’ embarrassment did not last long.
What matters is what kind of image you show now, because it wasn’t your previous career.
No matter how overwhelming a career you have built up, the tournament where you are eliminated even if you lose just once is the physical strongest match.
“Come on, let’s talk! Both players entered the prepared waiting room!”
“It’s a quick check of the psyker’s ability to be used in this match, right?”
The first thing Dohyeon and Wang Tau did after moving to the waiting room in the virtual space was to check the psyker’s ability to be used in the game.
Unlike general one-on-one competitions, there is one unique feature in the physical strongest match.
The point is that the psyker used in the competition has not yet been released, and it is a psyker to be released later.
This was a characteristic that occurred because the physical strongest match was purely a contest in which the participants competed only with the ‘physical’.
Regardless of the psyker’s compatibility or proficiency, he was forced to use a completely new psyker in order to compete solely with the player’s physical strength.
It would have been unimaginable in a normal competition.
However, the best physical match was possible.
This is because it was Blyon, the developer of ‘Psychic Wars’, that hosted this competition.
‘Hmm?’
The expressions of the two people who saw the psyker changed.
Do-hyeon showed interest, and Wang Tau showed a confident smile.
The psyker’s information to be used this time made them look like that.
「The psyker to be used in the round of 32 is the ‘Weapon Master’! According to the information provided, he is said to be an all-round psyker who fights using a variety of weapons!”
“Kratos and Wang Tau, both players are skilled in handling weapons! I’m curious how you’ll handle the ‘Weapon Master’!”
– A funny psyker appeared.
-Why are you announcing this here hahaha
– How are you waiting for the release?
-It looks like Blyon made it with this clenched fist.
Psyker’s name is ‘Weapon Master’.
As the name suggests, he was a psyker who fought with various weapons.
There were a total of five types of weapons: sword, spear, axe, blunt, and bow, and you could take out all of them or take out only one of them according to your will.
The unique ability is ‘Weapon Mastery’, which stacks up when you attack enemies while switching weapons, and the stat increases according to the stack!
The composition of the skills possessed was quite unique, and there was one technology that could be used for each weapon, so there were a total of five skills.
For example, when using a sword, you can use ‘Phantom Slash’, which can slash the enemy three times at once, and when using a spear, you can use ‘Dragonic Rush’, which quickly charges and stabs the enemy. it means there is
Each skill has a separate cooldown time, so how flexible you can use the skills seemed to be the key to operation.
”Weapon Master’. Totally a psyker for me.’
Wang Tau had a reason to smile confidently.
Chinese players used to learn weapon techniques for virtual use.
It was the same with Wang Tau, who had outstanding talents in his own way, and had mastered all kinds of weapon techniques to use in ‘Psychic Wars’.
In other words, the ‘Weapon Master’, who has to use all five weapons to gain his power, is a psyker that is very suitable for him who has learned various weapon techniques.
“This match, I won!”
「Wang Tau player! As soon as I checked the information of the ‘Weapon Master’, a declaration overflowing with confidence!”
「There are aspects that are hidden under the nickname ‘The Man with Ten Brains’, but Wang Tau’s weapon skills are also amazing! Especially in terms of diversity, it is said to be excellent!”
“indeed! Now, there is a reason for Wang Tau’s confidence, you are saying that!”
-In fact, it looks like the psyker was just right;
– How many weapons did he handle well? I think I used the sword and spear well…
-? Why are you worried? Still don’t know how big??
-Spoiler) King.Run.God.Kim
King Tau, convinced of his victory, muttered as if to hear from everyone.
There was a clear smile on his face.
It was a smile full of confidence in victory.
Quang! Scratch! bang!
On the other hand, Dohyun focused on confirming the abilities of the ‘Weapon Master’ without saying a word.
He thoroughly checked the specifications of the ‘Weapon Master’ by using the skills of each weapon and the increase in the stats according to the stack.
The training scarecrow was twisted and swayed by his continuous chained attacks.
When Dohyun finally stopped attacking, the scarecrow had already been completely smashed.
Then he smiled satisfactorily and put his weapon in.
Because now there is nothing more to check.
Besides, the remaining time is only about 20 seconds.
Since it’s a short time, there’s no need to do anything else to change it.
In the first place, the result has already been decided.
He took a breath and looked around.
It is invisible to him, but perhaps many are watching him.
Suddenly, an interesting thought occurred to him, and he twisted his lips slightly.
And he mumbled softly.
Perhaps the words that those who are looking at him will be eagerly waiting for.
“ah-! I’m here! Kratos’ victory confirmed speech! The so-called ‘that line’ has come out!”
「It’s a line that symbolizes Korea’s strongest physique?! because! Because Kratos has never been defeated by saying that!”
“Actually, Kratos has never lost, so it’s a natural thing to say!”
“you’re right!”
– ‘That line’ is here
-That line right from the start hahahaha
-I think I’ll win more than Wang Tau says I won hahaha
It was a not-so-great stew.
It was just a light mumble that didn’t show strong confidence like Wang Tau’s declaration.
The broadcasters and viewers who heard it cheered.
Because this line of Dohyun in the physical strongest fight was his signature and proof of his victory!
“finally! The time to look at the psyker is over, and the full-fledged match is about to begin.”
“From the start, it was a fierce nerve battle, even when checking the psyker, he looked like he had no doubts about victory, both players! Who will be the winner! It’s really interesting!”
So, while Dohyun and Wang Tau both showed their confidence in victory in their own way, the time allotted to confirm the psyker passed.
The surrounding landscape surrounding Do-hyeon and Wang Tau gradually faded and changed.
The Colosseum was chosen as the map for the first match of the round of 32.
Inside the flat amphitheater with no obstacles.
Dohyeon and Wang Tau looked at each other in the same costume of ‘Weapon Master’.
And the countdown begins.
King Tau, who glanced at the slowly decreasing number, converted his weapon into a sword.
Because the weapon he was most confident in was swordsmanship.
It turned out that his signature pick was ‘Sword Dancer’ before.
On the other hand, the one that Dohyun chose was Chang.
As he swung the spear, he lowered himself, pointed the spear blade at King Tau, and took a stance.
The signal for the start of the battle rang through the Colosseum.
「Kratos player, rush as soon as the match starts!」
“It’s an unstoppable attack that seems to say that there is no need for a search war!”
– I wish I could destroy it at once!!
– Cheek juk jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
-Invest only your 1 second!
At the same time, Dohyun attempted to attack first.
At the same time as the start signal sounded, he kicked off the ground and ran towards King Tau.
A dash of lightning speed!
A pale blue light was wrapped around the blade of the spear he stabbed, which was proof that he used the ‘Dragonic Rush’ technique that could be used as a spear.
It means that they did their best without any hesitation on the first strike.
It pierced the opponent.
At the beginning of the moment, Do-hyeon’s force was rushing in, and King Tau groaned.
It’s because I didn’t expect it to come crashing down without any kind of search battle.
His face hardened from being stabbed.
Nevertheless, his response was swift and swift.
He swung his sword towards the spear that stabbed him, and the tip of the sword shook and split into three parts.
It was the sword technique ‘Phantom Slash’.
The three sword blades slashed Dohyun’s spear blades in turn.
Damn it!
A harsh squeaking sound resounds in succession.
It was Dohyeon who had the upper hand in this clash.
Although Wang Tau somehow managed to block it, it was because Do-hyeon was basically attacking him.
Even if the offensive was blocked, it could not withstand the power contained within it and had to retreat back.
And it was an opportunity that should never be allowed for Dohyun.
‘Caught.’
Do-hyeon, who changed his weapon from a spear to a sword in an instant, swung it at King Tau.
The tip of his sword shook, and in an instant, it split into three branches, aiming at King Tau’s upper body.
It was the sword technique ‘Phantom Slash’ that King Tau just used to block his attack.
Zeng! blah blah!
Wang Tau hurriedly swung his sword and struck out ‘Phantom Slash’ one by one.
As if the name of the winner of the Chinese physical strongest match was not Heo Myung, it was a neat response that minimized damage and did not allow additional attacks.
However, that was not the goal of Do-hyeon.
All he wanted was a fleeting moment.
In short, it was just a brief pause.
It was created by Wang Tau slashing the ‘Phantom Slash’, and he didn’t miss it.
