Reading Webnovels Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 172

Park Si-joon and Han Go-woon walked the aisle.

There were security systems like CCTV all over the aisle.

“I have a skill that can be used in such a case.”

That problem was solved by Han Go-woon. As she used her skill, a hazy mist enveloped her surroundings.

“It’s about making those devices not recognize us,” she said. “It’s a rare skill.”

In my own words, it was a little, but I had a feeling that it was probably a very difficult skill to obtain.

The two walked while guarding their surroundings.

‘There is no sign of feeling.’

There was no sign of feeling in the passage.

However, there were quite a few signs below.

“Park Si-jun, how did you find the passage?”

Han Go-woon suddenly asked him.

“It was just beaten.

“I hit him. Hmm…”

Han Go-woon looked unbelievable.

But it was. He knew there was something there, but had no idea how to open it.

‘Since they made a contract with the Lord of Shadows, I wondered what would happen if I used that skill.’

Actually, that was right.

“I said it was more suspicious here than that. What did you see and think it was suspicious?”

“It’s weird seeing people come and go. People go in and don’t come out, or people who’ve never been in come out all of a sudden.”

The warehouse doesn’t have multiple exits, and it’s only strange that no one came out.

“The flow of logistics was also strange. There are too many items that are lost. What’s even more suspicious is that even though it is lost, the superiors don’t care.”

“This is the logistics we brought in for the guys in the basement, and we treated it as lost, right?”

“Yeah. There are more suspicious things than that, but I wasn’t really sure.”

Han Go-woon let out a small sigh.

“Now I’m convinced, so that’s more of a problem.”

“why?”

After a moment’s hesitation, she opened her mouth.

“The owner of this distribution center is… in a bit of trouble.”

“It is difficult?”

She wanted to ask more of what she meant, but she knew that Hango Yun wouldn’t answer now.

‘I’ll tell you later.’

The passage led to a deeper underground. Out of the basement, a cave appeared that was difficult to recognize even an inch ahead.

Park Si-jun and Han Go-woon immediately used stealth.

slurp.

The two figures melted into the shadows.

Park Si-jun looked around in that state.

The surrounding area is literally an underground cave. There was an entrance to the inside, and there were people guarding it.

‘Three.’

two men and one woman. Park Si-jun met Han Go-woon and her eyes. What are you going to do? to deal with?

‘It just passes.’

Han Go-woon shook his head. He decided that there was no need to fight to attract attention.

It was difficult to kill them and dispose of the bodies.

‘where… … ‘

I watched the movements of Park Si-joon and those guarding his entrance. And when they looked away.

uh uh

It passed by them like a shadow.

People didn’t even notice that he had passed.

‘wide.’

The inside of the cave was very spacious. There was something like an altar in the middle, and there were guards everywhere.

“It all looks gloomy.”

All of them were dressed in black. It was similar to Jung Doo-hyun’s outfit I saw last time. If there’s a difference, it’s about putting on a mask on your face.

“Let’s go over there for a second.”

Han Go-woon, who was looking around, walked ahead. There seemed to be something he wanted to check.

Shrek.

Passing through the crowd, and passing through the passage that appeared again, this time a narrow space appeared.

“Here…”

It was like a prison. Shadowwalker’s guild members guarded the prison, and there were people inside.

‘What is this?’

But there were also people who were not.

Park Si-joon’s face hardened as he looked at the prisoners.

‘Isn’t that a monster?’

Among the monsters, the ones with unique appearances, or the cute ones, were gathered.

The two went to a corner where their eyes could not reach.

“I’m just asking, are there any crazy people who buy and sell monsters?”

“Why not? People sell them too.”

Han Go-woon said expressionlessly.

“There are people who capture and sell monsters from the rift. This seems to be what they do.”

Park Si-joon let out a sigh.

“…what is our goal? Kill them all?”

“No. I have work to do before that.”

Han Go-woon looked around busily.

“If Jung Doo-hyun is right, the Shadow Walkers are a guild that mainly collects information and assassinates. There must be a place where information is gathered.”

“Shall we find it?”

“Yeah, finding it is a problem.”

Park Si-jun closed his eyes and widened the presence detection. I could feel the presence of people everywhere.

‘No, not this.’

Among them, I found the sign of the strongest. Several signs were felt in the depths of the cave.

The standard of the strongest.

[Assassin Lord’s quest has arrived.]

As soon as I sensed it, a message appeared in front of my eyes.

quest. It was the quest of the person who saw it in a very long time.

[Quest: No one can escape the shadow.]

-Even the same assassin is different from the Supreme Assassin. Assassinate the captain of this cave without being detected by anyone. You have to show them the difference.

[Reward: Talent Upgrade]

Park Si-joon’s eyes widened. The rewards were hot. It’s a character upgrade.

‘It was a B grade.’

Come to think of it, the time has come for him to be promoted slowly.

Han Go-woon looked strangely at Park Si-joon smiling alone.

“…why are you smiling?”

“Yes? No, um.”

Park Si-joon hastily managed his facial expressions.

“There is a place for straw.”

“I beg your pardon?”

Han Go-woon asked in surprise. He closes his eyes and wants to concentrate.

“Are you going to hit me again this time?”

“That’s right. Of course…”

Park Si-joon chuckled.

“It’s just a slap hit.”

Han Go-woon smirked.

* * *

“Aww!”

A loud scream resounded from the depths of the cave.

There was a pair of men and women in a room that was neatly decorated like an office. However, the layout was strange.

“Heh heh, heh!”

The man was kneeling on the floor, moaning in pain, and the woman was holding a dagger in her hand.

Blood dripped from the dagger.

“Now, do you feel a little better? I made a hole in your stomach to help you calm down.”

“Hey, you crazy bitch…”

The man, Kyung-min Yoo, spit out cursing.

I couldn’t quite understand the current situation. I was attacked while exploring the Abyss, and when I woke up, it was here.

‘Where did the people go?’

He was exploring with other guild members. Obviously they have to be together.

“Let’s check your identity first. A player belonging to Yeokcheon, Kyung-min Yoo. I’m 34 years old, and I’ve been a player for 5 years. I’m a veteran, and my level is 160.”

The woman laughed bitterly.

“And recently, I’m trying to set up a new guild on my own. Is that right?”

“You, what are you…?”

Kyung-min Yoo asked the woman blankly.

A woman in leather armor that clings to her body. Her face is hidden from view because it is covered with something like a mask.

“So many questions.”

“Isn’t that the case…?”

The woman, the dark spirit, smiled softly without saying a word.

No, she doesn’t know if she actually laughed.

She just felt that way.

“Now, I’m sure you have a lot of questions. Why did I bring you here? Who am I? What are you thinking about? I understand. So, I’ll have to answer that first.”

The dark spirit stretched out one of her fingers.

“First of all. Because I received someone’s request.”

She spread her second finger.

“And second. I’m called the Dark Spirit. I’m leading this organization, the Shadow Walker.”

“Shadow Walker? What is that…”

At the moment when Yoo Kyung-min was puzzled, Am-ryung held out her third finger.

“And last.”

She put her finger on her neck.

“You die.”

Yoo Kyung-min was startled and took a deep breath. The moment he was about to say something.

🤩🤩🤩

The blade cut through his neck. His body, which had lost his master, fell, spewing blood.

“huh.”

The dark spirit wiped away her blood from her blade. She then tilted her head towards her subordinate in her corner.

“Put it away.”

“Yes.”

The subordinate quickly began moving her body.

“What should I do with the ones I brought with me? There are members of Yu Kyung-min’s party.”

“Were these guys who decided to become independent together? Leave it alone. We’ll have to ask the client’s opinion. If they tell us to kill it, we kill it.”

The dark spirit’s eyes shone ominously.

“If you tell them to take care of it, they sell it.”

It was a cold word.

The subordinate bowed his head and went outside. Another subordinate entered the office as she crossed him.

“I have something to report to you. Here…”

As soon as he arrived, he handed the papers to the dark spirit. She quickly scanned the documents.

The content was simple.

Jung Doo-hyeon took over her job during her absence, and it failed. As a result, the background was outraged.

“Doohyun Jung failed?”

The dark spirit shook her head to and fro.

She was tired because she had been out for a long time because of this job.

“I’m the one who asked you to take care of me while I was away, so it’s not to blame, but why did it fail?”

“There was an unexpected variable.”

“You mean Park Si-Jun?”

The subordinate showed her a picture of her.

It was a picture of Park Si-jun from afar.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Jung Doo-hyun is not at the top, but he is a high-level player. He is also a seasoned assassin.”

Amryung looked at the picture and said.

“So he was hit by a newcomer who was less than a year old…

Her fingers tapped her desk.

“Is this possible?”

“I do not know.”

“I’m sure. It’s something I don’t quite understand.”

She also had a great interest in Park Si-joon.

There were problems with Lee Soo-young before, and there were other personal interests.

“I mean, he’s so versatile even though he doesn’t have a background.”

Just as she was interested in her, many other organizations in the back world were also interested in Park Si-jun.

So were the backgrounds.

“If you catch it, you can sell it for a high price, what do you think?”

“It seems to be sold at a high price as a research subject.”

“I will.”

But it wasn’t easy.

“There were too many people following Park Si-joon and his guild members. It doesn’t seem like it’s going to be easy…”

“…Let’s investigate.”

The dark spirit smiled satisfactorily at her subordinate’s answer.

“The Shadow Lord was angry. Lee Soo-young, considering how much effort you put into that girl, of course.”

“That’s right.”

“As His servants, we must do what He commands. This failure…”

puck! The dagger of the dark spirit slammed into Park Si-joon’s photo.

“It must be repaid. To summon the elite.”

“That word…”

“Yeah, I’ll handle this myself.”

The subordinate bowed his head deeply and left. All that was left was the dark spirit, she alone.

‘Jung Doo-hyun is dead.’

The dark spirit closed her eyes. She was a wealthy man who had been with her since the time she created this guild.

To lose a man like that in this way.

“…I will find him and give him revenge.”

“You won’t have to look far.”

At that moment, I heard a voice from behind me.

Although she was a dark spirit reflexively trying to avoid her body.

“Huh…!”

one step late The blade slid down her shoulder.

“Wow!”

I felt a sharp pain. And before she could see any reaction from the dark spirit.

🤩🤩🤩

The blade cut through her right arm.

The dark spirit bit his lip and stepped back. She saw the figure of a man in her eyes.

“…Park Si-jun.”

It was Park Si-joon holding a dagger with dripping blood.
