56 – Disaster Level Monster (2)
Around when the system announced that this mission was to find and eliminate the doppelganger.
‘There is no way the reason why the awakened people gathered here have such high qualifications is…’
Kang-woo opened her eyes wide as a realization passed through her mind.
A doppelganger that can copy everything exactly of the other person, no matter who that person is.
But even the doppelganger is not stupid, so he does not copy ‘anyone’ for survival. He may be the ‘strongest person’ among the opponents he has faced.
And now.
In this ordeal where it is presumed that there are only awakened people and doppelgangers, the ‘strongest person’ that the doppelgangers can copy is….
‘Because of me…?’
With the morale skill ‘Holy Touch’, which increases strength when used on wounds above a certain level, Choi Kang-woo was the only awakened person who had overcome most of the trials alone until the random trials began, and had abilities that were different from those of ordinary awakened people.
‘… A doppelganger just like me.’
However, one fortunate thing was that the doppelganger did not have the ability to copy the effects of the opponent’s items.
So even if a doppelganger who copies himself appears, the doppelganger without the ‘real’ protective shield with ‘magic attack damage -30%’ will definitely be vulnerable to the ring of disaster’s explosion skill….
‘Something feels bad…?’
Kang-woo, who was thinking of a way to kill the doppelganger in his head, tilted his head.
As I thought about it, I felt strange that I felt extremely insignificant without an item.
‘No. I’m vulnerable to magic attacks, but everything else is fine…’
It was no comfort at all.
I was having a strange experience where the more I thought about how to kill the doppelganger, the dirtier I felt.
“Then, isn’t there a possibility that there is a doppelganger among these people?”
From Noble mtl dot com
“…!!”
Longsword expressed his opinion.
And only then did I recognize Kangwoo.
‘… Damn.’
This ordeal right now is not an individual ordeal, but a team ordeal.
If a doppelganger appears as a copy of himself, people will be confused. How should he then make them understand that he is not a doppelganger?
Kangwoo, who was racking his brain, was suddenly pulled out of his thoughts by the gazes of the awakened people on him.
‘Why…?’
The doppelgänger hasn’t popped out yet, so why are the awakened ones…?
The doubts were quickly resolved. In an unwelcome way.
“Isn’t he strange? “I understand you were keeping a distance from the beginning.”
The archer showed caution towards Kang Woo.
And other people also silently expressed their approval to the archer’s words.
They also thought that Kang-woo’s behavior of distancing himself from them was strange.
“Hey? Did you say Choi Kang-woo? “Can you please say something?”
“….”
Kangwoo chose to remain silent due to Archer’s repeated warnings. Because….
‘Even if I think about it, I’m suspicious, damn it.’
Even if it were him, he would have been the first to doubt himself as he first entered the trials and kept his distance from the awakened ones.
‘Who knew it was a doppelganger ordeal?’
When Kang-woo swallows his sorrow at the current situation that is not good.
The long sword that was looking at him closely asked a question.
“… Hey, but why doesn’t he have a backpack?”
“… Huh?”
The people who finally looked into Kang-woo’s behavior were shocked by the long sword’s question.
It was true.
The backpack that an awakened person should carry with his or her life was not on that person’s back.
“What…? Unless you have a subspace ring… Huh?!”
“…!!”
And that was the beginning.
The story progressed without any time to explain what Kang-woo was doing.
“Oh, and by the way, aren’t those earrings both items? I know that the black earrings over there were worn by a colleague…!! That, that… Ah, Wentus’ earrings! “You can buy that at the store for 6,500 points…?”
“Let me explain-“
“The helmet and breastplate are clearly made of plate…! Then those two alone are approximately 13,000 points…?!”
“Aren’t those Orc Lord leather gloves and shoes…?” ?”
“Everyone, let me explain everything-“
“Wait a minute. So how much did he put on his body? There’s no way he could have carried an ordinary shield up to the 40th floor… If we assume there really is a subspace ring inside that armor…”
Charralalak-
The brains of the awakened people spun faster than ever. So the conclusion is:
“Who on earth is that person?”
An amount that an ordinary awakened person could never obtain.
Who on earth is that person wearing that amount of items?
When the atmosphere cooled down as quickly as it heated up.
“Over there-“
The tanker, who was staring blankly at Kangwoo, muttered as if possessed.
“That person….”
Kangwoo thought as he felt shocked gazes turning towards him.
‘… If you say the damn thing-‘
It was the moment when the identity of ‘that person’ who had been rumored was revealed.
***
“Wow… It’s amazing. I can’t believe I met ‘that person’….”
“Me too. “I didn’t believe it when I heard it through rumors, but when I saw it in person, there was something different about it.”
“If you look at the fact that you’re not wearing a backpack… there really is a subspace ring, right?”
Tanks, healers, and longswords gathered together to share their reviews of that person.
“….”
Right in front of the person concerned.
‘Will these people listen to me when I talk to them?’
Kang-woo was standing there half-given up.
“Um… can I get your autograph?”
I thought as I looked at the tanker, who was scratching the back of his head in a way that did not suit his muscular build.
‘I won’t listen to you.’
At a time when I couldn’t tell if this was an ordeal or a local cafe.
“Hey, just wait a moment.”
After it was revealed that Kang-woo was that person.
The archer, who had remained silent until now, raised his hand.
“If a doppelganger copies that person… Then what happens to us?”
The tanker, healer, and longsword who had been flirting with the archer’s words stiffened.
I was so excited about meeting that person that I forgot about it. If it were a doppelganger, it would definitely be a copy of the strongest person among them.
With the atmosphere becoming more serious, Kangwoo opened his mouth. He intended to share his thoughts on the battle with the doppelganger.
If only he hadn’t been interrupted again.
“So I-“
“No, before that. “Isn’t it clear whether that person is a doppelganger or not…?”
“….”
For a moment, Kang-woo was annoyed that the conversation was interrupted again, and quietly stared at Archer, who was openly showing his hostility.
“Why? Right? Aren’t you the one most likely to have been copied by a doppelganger? Or would you like to say something?”
The archer’s hand holding the longbow twitched as if it would raise itself at any moment.
‘What are we going to do now?’
Kangwoo frowned at the aggressive words.
“… If I say no, will you believe me?”
“Do you really believe that’s what they say? “We have to properly determine whether it is a person or a monster.”
It was a contradiction.
There was no way to distinguish between a doppelganger and a person anywhere.
If there had been such a thing in the first place, the doppelganger would not have been treated as a ‘disaster level’ monster.
‘Are we going to fight?’
At the time when Kang-woo’s eyes darkened violently.
Healer sensed that the situation was not unusual and stepped forward.
“Hey, Captain, that seems a bit harsh-“
“Healer.”
But the archer, absorbed in his own logic, no longer respected the healer.
“Now is not the time to take that person’s side. Don’t you know? The difficulty of this ordeal is now. “The fact that I jumped up a few levels because of that one person?”
“Well, even if that’s the case, you’re pushing it to something that isn’t accurate…”
“This is the exact thing. “The thing standing over there right now is either a doppelganger, or a doppelganger with that appearance will appear soon.”
“….”
“And that doppelganger will be just as strong as the person who cleared the ordeal alone.”
Now it was just like ‘standing there’.
Kangwoo raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at his words and actions that crossed the line.
“When I saw it, it looked like a doppelganger.”
“… Ha? “On what basis are you saying such nonsense now?”
“No, that’s right. If I transformed into myself from the beginning, everyone would notice. “You might have thought it would be better to transform into you and kill me first.”
The archer, whose face turned red at Kangwoo’s words, looked at the other awakened people and shouted.
“Hey, look at that! Punishing innocent people! Just look at it and you can see that it’s a doppelganger!! We need to kill him now, or at least trap him!!”
The archer’s grumpy words made me feel cold in my stomach.
When no one is willing to open their mouth.
“Wouldn’t it be okay to pack and pack?”
Longsword said, agreeing to some extent with the archer’s argument.
“Isn’t that right? Killing… It’s still a bit like entrapment, well. “I think it’s okay…?”
The archer jumped up and down with joy at the longsword’s words.
Kangwoo laughed at the shocking situation.
“Now… Are you going to arrest me?”
“If you want to prove your innocence, please cooperate-“
“You mean me?”
“… Are you saying you won’t cooperate now? “Is it okay to judge that the reason is because he is a doppelganger?”
The archer raised his longbow. That action seemed as if he was willing to use violence if he didn’t cooperate, so Kang-woo burst out laughing.
“Fuha! “No, no, that’s not what I mean.”
“…?”
Kangwoo sneered at the archer who suddenly laughed and looked at him like he was crazy.
“Do you think you can capture me?”
“Gee, let’s really do it now!”
The archer, unable to control his anger at Kangwoo’s ridicule, aimed his bow.
Kangwoo took a step forward, looking at the bowstring pulled taut as if it was about to be fired at him at any moment.
“Are you really worried that I might be a doppelgänger?”
“Of course-“
“You don’t just want to kill me because you want my item?”
“W-what are you saying…!!”
The archer’s eyes trembled slightly at the direct question.
‘Trash.’
That was when Kang-woo realized his disgusting true feelings and became angry.
Kuuung-!
“That’s it!!”
The tanker, who had caught everyone’s attention with a foot roll using ‘Riolent Increase’, intervened between the two.
“What are the same team members doing now! Since the background is a forest, the terrain has a lot of cover, so you don’t know where the doppelganger may be watching the situation nearby! But in a situation like this, there’s a fight between the same team members!”
“… It remains to be seen whether that guy is a teammate or not-“
“Sir, stop now! “You were the one who started it all!”
“….”
The archer, who saw the healer next to the tank nodding her head obediently, closed his mouth with a sh*t-chewing look on his face.
