198 – 198. Temporary Alliance!
A temporary alliance between an enemy and an ally that appears whenever you forget it in a creation.
It is truly romantic to have an enemy and an ally who fought hand in hand to fight against a more vicious evil, but there is no way that a cool-headed and improvised team can get along.
For this reason, the development of the temporary alliance is followed by a plausible setting to support the development. Enemy and ally who temporarily held hands are fateful rivals, so they know each other well. Or, since we were once colleagues, we can cooperate by making use of our past experiences. Or that both of the parties to the cooperation are masters who cannot measure the level, so they can match each other’s movements in an instant.
Usually, a temporary alliance can be successful only when such a background setting is followed, and if there is not even that, it is a temporary alliance that has to be evasively glossed over with passion, spirit, or gags.
Then, Ahn Su-ho and Heo Seong-chan.
It’s not like we’re rivals of destiny.
I’ve never been a colleague before.
Can their temporary alliance, which is not even a master enough to put together in an instant, succeed?
“Whoops f*ck?! You almost got hit!”
“You know how to avoid it! You can’t fight while paying attention to yourself!”
That wasn’t the answer.
“How many times is this?! Play around with those tentacles or the whip! You keep flying at me!”
“I am attacking properly! You bounce around and come into my attack trajectory!”
“That’s what I said! Match my movements!”
“Then hold still! It keeps bouncing irregularly like a bouncy ball, how do you expect that?!”
Two people fighting over the word “Temporary alliance”.
Aigis and Rusty Nail rushed at the gap between the two. Unlike the two of them who were constantly creaking, the connection between the two, who had been together as an assassination team for a long time, was perfect like water flowing.
“Here they come! Concentrate!”
-Quaang!!
The moment Heo Seong-chan’s fist was about to pierce Rustineil’s face, the translucent reflective field blocked his fist. The spring fist hit the field at an angle and slipped, blocking the path of the blade An Su-ho was about to wield.
“What?”
“Oh sh*t-“
Surprised, Suho Ahn managed to retract the blade. Aegis’ kick cut through the resulting gap. The kick using the field’s repulsive force was deeply embedded in his stomach.
“Keugh?!”
Ahn Su-ho’s body was bent and thrown out, and right after that, Heo Seong-chan also retreated while holding on to his side to see who had hurt him. Two people standing side by side glared at each other at the same time.
“You just tried to cut me too?!”
“I just bought it, bought it! Besides, if you think about it, it’s from your side again this time!”
“That shield deflects all my attacks, what should I do!”
“Then consider the power and angle of reflection before attacking!”
“I can’t do such petty things! If you keep nagging me, I’ll kill you first, not them!”
Aegis thought as he watched the two raise their voices and fight again.
‘It’s disorganized.’
Aegis doesn’t know anything about the relationship between the two. I can only guess that the two are not originally colleagues. However, even considering that, the connection between the two was close to the worst. There was no connection in the first place.
And Ahn Su-ho was also thinking the same thing just in time.
‘Damn it… …. If you’re going to do it this way, I’d rather fight alone. But I still can’t win against those two alone. In other words, I have to somehow supplement the connection with Heo Seong-chan…….’
Ahn Su-ho glanced at Heo Seong-chan. According to what I felt through a brief joint struggle, Heo Seong-chan was never a great person who cared for Ahn Su-ho or matched his style. In other words, he had to match Heo Seong-chan on the side of Ahn Su-ho.
‘Let’s think. How to maximize Heo Seong-chan’s strengths. What are Heo Sung-chan’s strengths? Three-dimensional battle using abilities? But that’s a big limitation in such an open terrain. You can’t move freely in the air, so your movement is limited to flat surfaces…….’
At that moment, an idea popped into Suho Ahn’s mind.
-Awesome!
Dozens of tentacles erupted from Ahn Soo-ho’s left hand. In an instant, tentacles stretched out in all directions soared into the sky, intertwining and intertwining.
After a while, a huge circular net with a diameter of 20 meters centered on four people was created.
“It is a ‘stepping stone’, Heo Seong-chan. Can I not explain?”
Heo Seong-chan’s mouth was filled with a deep smile at Ahn Su-ho’s question. Like a child with a fun ride in front of him.
“I like this!! I really like it!!”
-Paang!!!
Shortly after that, Heo Seong-chan jumped up like a frog and stepped on the net in the air. The net stretched along the direction of the force returned to its original position and pushed his body, and Heo Seong-chan added the recoil and ran out at a faster speed.
-Faang!! Paang!! Phut! Phut! PABABABABABANG!!
The speed gradually increases each time you step on the net. Heo Seong-chan, whose upper and lower axis constraints he had until then, had disappeared, and he played like a fish in water. Seeing that, Aigis and Rusty Nail stood guard against each other as they put their backs on each other.
“Ahhh!”
-Teoong!!!!
A sudden blow that flew in at that moment. Aegis could feel the heavy impact hitting the reflection field he had set up. However, at that moment, Heo Seong-chan had already run away in a different direction.
-Teoong!!
A blow from the opposite direction right after. I blocked it this time through the reflection field, but I couldn’t counterattack this time either.
-Teoong!!
And another blow.
-Tuong!
A blow.
-Tuong!
A blow.
-Twoeoong!!!!
And another blow.
-Tuong! Tuong! Burst! Thuddeong! Tumbling!!!
Aegis chewed his lips at the sound of impact that echoed everywhere. In that short moment, Ahn Soo-ho created an ideal environment for Heo Seong-chan to play an active role, and the result was as seen. In front of extreme speed and freedom that even counterattacks were not possible, the two assassins had no choice but to focus on defense helplessly.
“Rusty. Stop his movement by corroding the net.”
“What? How can you do that in this situation?! Just step away from you and I’ll get beaten up by that lunatic!”
“I am responsible for protecting you. So hurry up!”
“Ii Iik! He, be sure to follow those words!”
Rusty Nail kicked the side of Aegis with an uneasy expression. To corrode the scaffold created by Ahn Su-ho.
“Where!”
-Tuong!
Heo Seong-chan did not let her go. However, Aegis surely protected her. Even her reflection field, which she used to devote to herself, was all-in to her.
‘He can’t attack me anyway. If Rusty is left unattended, the footing will collapse.’
Aegis’ judgment was extremely rational.
But there is one thing he overlooked.
-Pueruk!!
“heheheh?!”
“Your shield is empty!”
Contrary to his expectations, Heo Seong-chan was not a creature driven by reason.
-f*ck! Furbuck! Tuong! Empty! f*ck! Tumbling!
Aegis, who hurriedly gathered the reflection field and went into defense, thought with a puzzled face.
‘Why? Are you neglecting Rusty? If I do that, the foothold that gave me the edge just now would be ruined!’
Aegis’ eyes followed Rusty Nail’s back. Freed from Heo Seong-chan’s pursuit, she was just about to grab the silver net with her hand.
However.
-Tuhwaahak!!
“Ugh?!”
Just before she took her hand, her high-pressure smoke shot out like a blade from the thin gaps carved into her net. Thanks to her momentary retreat, she escaped a fatal wound, but a deep cut was left on her left arm.
-Took! Fighting evil!
The smoke blade didn’t stop there and continued to press Rustineil. Rusty Nail glared at her eyes while avoiding the high-pressure gas blades that flew with the momentum to drop her own head.
‘This black smoke is definitely that man’s superpower… …. But the data clearly said that smoke only comes from both hands, right?’
The secret was in the net that Ahn Soo-ho cast everywhere. The tentacle extending from Ahn Su-ho’s left arm was a hollow structure. Ahn Soo-ho ejected high-pressure smoke through the passage, slit a thin gap in the net around Rusty Nail, and blew it out in the form of a compression cutter.
‘I’ve seen with my own eyes that it’s corroded just by touching it, so don’t you think I haven’t taken any countermeasures?’
With the smoke screen covering his eyes and the high-pressure gas blades aiming for the gap, Rustynail repeatedly approached and retreated with the net in front. An anxious emotion on her face.
‘Yes, if I attack the main body-‘
-Too Kwaaang!!
Just when she thought she might have found a way out, her black muddy stream came crashing down on her. Ahn Soo-ho, who had changed the armor on his right hand into a gun barrel, laughed at him.
“That bastard is really… !”
Rusty Nail shouted in her rage, but she had no choice but to defend herself with her arms guarded by the smoke blades and bullets that attacked her again.
To Sylvie, her psychic power was no different from her nemesis, but on the contrary, her psychic power of Ahn Su-ho was also superlative to her. Even with her ability to corrode asphalt, she couldn’t make the aircraft rust.
The Aegis was held captive by Heo Seong-chan. And Rusty Nail, helpless by Ahn Su-ho.

Looking at those two, Suho Ahn thought.
‘It is possible. I can beat this!’
Originally, in a 2v2 situation, Ahn Suho’s side was a much disadvantageous fight. Because Ahn Su-ho and Heo Seong-chan showed teamwork that was close to the bottom when it came to the connection between colleagues.
However, as a result of dividing the 2-on-2 fight into 1-on-1 and 1-on-1 through a series of flows, Ahn Soo-ho was able to turn the tide of the fight. The fact that Ahn Su-ho and Heo Seong-chan’s abilities were advantageous to Rusty Nail’s and Aegis’s, respectively, must have played a part.
Of course, that didn’t mean the two were unilaterally overpowering each other’s enemies. It was true that at least he was surely destroying his opponent little by little.
That’s why Suho Ahn thought. That you can win
-Where you go!
However, that judgment was the result of the mature but still inexperienced man focusing only on the battle in front of him.
-Pooooong!!
Ahn Soo-ho raised his head in surprise at the explosion that hit his ears. At that moment, white energy bullets filled his front with pure white.
“Oops-“
-Quaaang!! Kwagagagagagang!!!!
Red flames and explosions occurred, and Ahn Su-ho’s body rolled around. He managed to turn Sylvie into defense, so the damage wasn’t great, but because of that defense, he had no choice but to release the scaffold prepared for Heo Seong-chan.
‘What the hell was that attack… …. Damn it, come to think of it, there was one more.’
Ahn Su-ho looked up with a worried face and saw a cube walking through the smoke. A man with a grimace said to her colleague, launching energy bullets in his hands.
“The little ones around here were roughly organized. I will join you soon.”
“It comes so quickly, really… ….”
“I knew I could do well without one. Hey, in the meantime, I was badly beaten! Are your limbs red with blood?”
-Kiiiiing!!
The energy bullets that were spinning in his hand flew in different directions all at once. Right after that, a violent explosion occurred and Heo Seong-chan flew to Ahn Su-ho as if he was running away from the explosion.
“Heo Seong-chan!”
“What the f*ck! Almost done! Suddenly interrupting and f*cking!”
At the end of Heo Seong-chan’s gaze, there was an Aegis breathing heavily. In the meantime, a third of the reflection field he boasted of was broken and disappeared. Like Rustineil, Aegis was also the result of being severely beaten by Heo Seong-chan, who was disadvantaged in terms of characteristics.
“Ugh. The 6th and 7th place in the assassination team are ridiculous. Well, but now that I’m here, you can rest assured.”
A wickedly grinning cube against a backdrop of blazing flames. With him at the center, Aegis and Rusty Nail took their stance again. Ahn Su-ho bit his lip at the scene.
‘Is it 3v2 after all… ….’
It was better than before when I knew how to fight 3-on-1, but the disadvantages were the same. Besides, the strategy from earlier would no longer be usable once Cube joined in.
“That bastard is the target, right? Come on, let’s finish it quickly!”
At that moment, the energy bullets that floated in both hands of the cube separated into hundreds of cube fragments and flew away. Ahn Soo-ho, who was lost in thought, reacted a bit late to the attack. Thinking it was impossible to avoid, he created a huge shield with both hands to block the attack.
-Pajijijik!
However, just before the attack touched Ansuho’s shield, a small noise rang in his ears.
-Quarrr!!!
Immediately, the energy bullets that flew in accompanied by strong thunder exploded all at once. Ahn Soo-ho could witness the shadow of a man vigorously swinging his right foot at the center of the explosion.
“Shin Jae-ho!”
“When did you say you saw it!”
The identity was Shin Jae-ho, who had fallen behind after being hit by Heo Seong-chan a while ago. The moment Ahn Su-ho’s face turned bright at the unexpected appearance of an ally, numerous people followed behind him.
“Mr. Suho Ahn!”
“Inspector? And after……. Are they the other members of the Special Forces?”
“Those three will be dealt with by the special task force! Suho, this way!”
Ahn Soo-ho, led by Jung Ji-min’s touch, suddenly withdrew, and three special task force members took his place. If you include Shin Jae-ho, a total of four. Originally, they were the ones escorting the containers of Ansuho.
“I’m sure everyone was busy fighting elsewhere, but how… ….”
“Thanks to the bombardment that man started earlier. Because it exploded without distinguishing between friends and foes, some enemies ran away without fighting. Thanks to that, I was able to quickly gather people and join Suho.”
They fight the police force before the assassin team arrives, a hybrid unit of hounds and contractors. Among them, the contractors were those who were entangled in the interests of money, unlike the hunting dog unit, which unconditionally followed orders due to brainwashing. Of course, if my life is precious, there will be people who run away.
A vague smile appeared on Ahn Su-ho’s lips, thinking that far.
‘Good luck. Unlike me, I’m lucky today?’
Ahn Suho quickly looked around. Currently, there are four special task force members who have joined him, and another four members who are still tied to the battlefield. I thought that if I organized the hounds and joined them, I would be able to win against the three assassination teams.
“Hey! What is this spring man?! Why did the guy who hit me earlier suddenly become on your side?”
At that time, Shin Jae-ho shouted as he saw Seong-chan Heo next to him. Then, Heo Seong-chan replied with a shameless smile.
“It’s a temporary alliance! Out of all the guys here, I like you the most, so I’ll stand by your side for now! Oh, sorry for hitting you earlier!”
“What? If you kill half of the people and say you’re sorry, that’s it? This bastard of criminals really-“
“Commander Shin Jae-ho! Even though he’s a criminal, he’s on our side now! Right now, it’s a situation where one person is sad, so let’s discuss the small things later!
“Something small?! I gave this guy three ribs now, but it’s a little……. Uhh it happened That’s right. Now, the first thing to do is to catch those extremist terrorists over there.”
Shin Jae-ho glared at the assassination team with a grumbling attitude. Bright yellow electricity jumped out of his toes as he firmly landed on the ground.
“Wow, great. They say it’s a special rental unit? Hey Aegis. Are we going to fight the special lease from now on?”
At that ferocious force, Rustynail smiled like a snake and tapped the Aegis. Aegis had an unwilling expression, but he let out a deep sigh and nodded his head.
“Originally, there would be nothing good about getting involved with the special lease, but this time I can’t help it. The boss’s order was to retrieve the primordial silver no matter what.”
“Okay reception! I wanted to fight with them sometime!”
“Aegis, you’re always annoying, annoying, are you saying you’re sincere when you go on a mission on the subject of singing? So, even if you stay in the province on a fictitious day and just fantasize about idols, the boss will take care of you.”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
After saying that, the three of them entered a perfect battle posture. Ahn Soo-ho also stepped forward, clenching his fists in a way that felt like a brother-in-law from them.
However.
“You stand back.”
Shin Jae-ho pushed Ahn Soo-ho away and made him step back. Ahn Su-ho, who is puzzled, is shot at.
“We fight. You go to the lab right now.”
“Yes? What is that-“
“The situation was urgent, so I tolerated it, but you are not a combatant in the first place. Our job is to safely escort you to the lab, and your role is to quietly go to the lab and get tested. So go ahead.”
“…… Are you telling me to run away and leave you guys behind?”
Ahn Su-ho asked back in disbelief at Shin Jae-ho’s sudden order. However, Shin Jae-ho answered with a clear sense of irritation, as if he would never give up his will.
“Yes. Turn it off right now Don’t interfere with our fight.”
“No… ….”
Ahn Su-ho, who was dumbfounded by this, frowned and asked.
“What kind of bullsh*t is that?”
Right after that, Shin Jae-ho’s forehead was also strongly frowned.
