<h4>Chapter 157:</h4>


    ...


    As the day passed, the Inte was once again in turmoil.


    -Breaking News) Case closed!


    "The Great Escape from Jisan Prison."


    -Breaking News) 500 viins were eliminated! Korea has be safer!


    -Intensive coverage) Ask the Baekho Guild.


    "Who is the identity of the hunter who eliminated the viins?"


    -Interview) Vice President Baek Mi-ho, "He is a hero." Remarks emunicated.


    People''s reactions to the news that began to spread all over the Inte were more enthusiastic than ever.


    -and; It''s awesome; It wasn''t the White Tiger Guild that caught the viins??


    -What does this mean? Who on earth caught so many viins if not the White Tiger Guild?


    -Do you have dyslexia? They said it was someone else who solved the case, and the Baekho Guild only handled it after the fact.


    -No, so who is that??


    -Anyway, it''s just one person.


    – Haha, that''s awesome. Anyway, that means that one hunter killed 500 viins, right?


    -?? At this point, isn''t that hunter also a viin?


    – ?? It''s a massacre.


    Here, people''s reactions werergely divided into two.


    Clearing out the viins in Jisan Prison was of course a good thing, and the person who solved it was a hero who deserved praise.


    But the problem was that the number of viins he killed was too many.


    -This is a person who massacred 500 people in one day, but it doesn''t seem normal.


    -At least a murderer.


    -Isn''t it okay since we killed viins, not people?


    -Ah~ Viins aren''t even people?


    -?? : Even viins have human rights! Quack.


    -Fact 1) All the human rights organizations that said that are dead now.


    -Fact 2) They were also killed by the viins they secretly hid.


    -Rted link) "I killed it because it was the same."


    -Rted link) "Who dares protect whom? "On the topic of ipetent people."


    ...At one time, many organizations raised their voices advocating for the human rights of viins.


    However, due to the various incidentsmitted by the viins after that, most people were now epting the Hunter Association''s im that ''viins are defined as humanoid demon beasts.''


    still....


    There was such a thing as a degree.


    – Statement of conviction) Still, killing all 500 people was a bit harsh. If he was that strong of a hunter, there would have been a way to save him and send him back to prison.


    – Haha, you are a saint in the corner of your room. And what if he escapes again? Do you want to catch it again?


    -no!! So who are you?? Why don''t you reveal your identity? He''s a hero!


    -?? The atmosphere is like this, but if it were you, would you reveal it? It''s not enough to be held up as a national hero, but the national character is condemned as a massacre haha.


    -Besides, I heard that Hwang Dong-seok also died this time. Hwang Dong-soo must be desperately trying to hide his identity out of fear that he wille looking for revenge.


    – Haha Hwang Dong-soo is scary.


    Stand tall.


    "...."


    Late at night.


    S-ss viin Hwang Dong-su was reading Inte news one by one in his hideout when he suddenly stopped.


    Beyond that was a list of viins who had died this time.


    -C-level viin Hwang Dong-seok (deceased)


    "...her."


    The corners of his mouth, which had been tightly closed the whole time, forcibly twitched, revealing his pure white teeth.


    I burst outughing at the news that was so absurd.


    "Your brother died?"


    Hwang Dong-seok was her older brother who broke up with her two years ago.


    He suddenly awakened alone, and he was also an abusive older brother who mercilessly abandoned him, calling him a useless b*stard.


    So, even when he was awakened to S-sster, he had no intention of going there first and trying to get along like before.


    But that didn''t mean he wanted to receive news of his brother''s death this way.


    "...I thought he was quietly imprisoned in prison, but he suddenly escaped and was caught and killed three dayster? And that to one person?"


    When he heard that his brother had escaped from prison, he had no intention of helping.


    Since he has a very clever personality, I thought he would hide himself well and pay no attention to him.


    But if my brother died, things would be different.


    Shouldn''t he at least take revenge on his younger brother?


    ''...But I still don''t know who did it.''


    I searched all the rted articles, but the White Tiger Guild waspletely hiding the identity of ''him''.


    As someone said in thement earlier, it was clear that he was worried about Hwang Dong-su''s retaliation at this point.


    but.


    "There are no eternal secrets in today''s world."


    Hwang Dong-su exposed his teeth and raised his huge body from the bed.


    Therge gold ne hanging around his neck ttered.


    Hwaak-


    As he opened the bedroom door and walked out, the lobby of a luxurious mansion unfolded.


    This was once the secret vi of a corrupt politician and the third hideout of Hwang Dong-su, who killed him and took over.


    Hwang Dong-su walked out of the building through the empty lobby and called somewhere.


    We were connected soon.


    -Yes, Hwang Dong-su. What did you contact me about?


    A voice in a businesslike tone came from the other end of the phone.


    Hwang Dong-su asked directly.


    "I want information."


    -Do you want any information about Hwang Dong-seok''s death?


    Hwang Dong-su smiled and said as if he had been waiting for the answer.


    "You''re good at business. Yes, I want to know who killed my brother. "I''ll give you any amount of money."


    -The money is fine. Instead, if you don''t mind, would you mind helping us with one task this time?


    "work?"


    -yes. A slightly troublesome request hase in.


    Hwang Dong-su frowned at those words.


    "You know very well that I am being chased by the association, right?"


    -yes. Of course, I understand Hwang Dong-soo''s position very well. So, for what we wanted to do, we chose not a city center, but a rural area that would never be noticed.


    "...Tsk."


    Hwang Dong-su clicked his tongue with a disapproving expression at the business-like tone of the other person, who immediately poured out a prepared message as if he had been waiting for him to contact him.


    ''Anyway, they are clever guys.''


    Of course, thanks to this, he is still livingfortably without being caught by the association.


    -Of course, Hwang Dong-su can solve this problem in an instant. If you do the work, we will hand over the information you want right away.


    "Okay, tell me where it is."


    -This is Yangpyeong. It''s not too far from where you are right now.


    * * *


    [Enter the Shadow Dungeon.]


    The next day, Suho returned home, had breakfast, and went straight into the shadow dungeon.


    The Jisan Prison incident caused a huge stir on the Inte, but the daily life of Suho, the person involved, did not change at all.


    This was all thanks to the White Tiger Guild hiding information about Suho as much as possible.


    Of course, since there was more than one hunter from the White Tiger Guild who witnessed Suho in person, that information could not be hidden forever.


    No matter what public opinion was, Suho''s identity would eventually be widely known to the public one day.


    However, it was at least possible to dy the timing slightly and release it when Suho wanted.


    [Little Lord, the grid is strong. To reap Grid as a shadow soldier, the Little Lord must be equally strong.]


    "I said I understood. That''s why I came to train so hard."


    Hwang Dong-su, who was once said to be his father''s shadow soldier, ''Grid''.


    Someday, I will either meet him and fight him directly, or the White Tiger Guild will find him and kill him first.


    To sessfully extract him as a shadow soldier again, Suho''s abilities were most important.


    [Skill: Shadow Extraction Lv.2]


    Shadow power.


    No mana is required.


    It extracts mana from a lifeless body and turns it into a shadow soldier.


    The probability of extraction failure increases in proportion to the target''s abilities and the psed time of the target''s death.


    -Level 2 effect ''Shape Transformation'': The shape of the shadow soldier can be changed arbitrarily.


    [Number of shadows that can be extracted: 50/50]


    ''There is a chance of failure in the shadow extraction skill.''


    Suho recalled the dizzying experience of failing twice while trying to extract a ''poison-toothed sand centipede'' in Egypt.


    At that time, the centipede was not at a level where Suho could kill it alone, so the extraction almost failed.


    ''There are a total of 3 extraction opportunities. To safely extract the S-ss awakened in those three opportunities, we must be much stronger than we are now.''


    So, Suho entered Ammut''s Pyramid to be stronger again today.


    As always, for the daily quest, to practice Gangseojutsu.


    However, when we arrived here, there was a miserable mummy(?) who had been forgotten by everyone and was continuing her solitary training.


    "Sooooo...."


    [Khaha! Yes, that''s it! Keep running! Even if my leg bones are pulverized! Even if my spine hurts! You can still run!]


    "...."


    A mummy trudging through thebyrinth of the pyramid under the terrifyingughter of Ammut.


    No, Do-gyun Lim.


    Currently, his entire body is wrapped in ''Item: Mummy''s Bandages'' and he is being trained by Ammut.


    No, it was just training; in fact, it was torture itself.


    Of course, Suho was also repeating a set routine every day in the name of a daily quest.


    However, even though the number of times was the same, the intensity was different each time.


    Ammut was increasing the intensity of training by adjusting the gravitational field more and more in proportion as Suho''s abilities increased.


    So Suho was also undergoing training, enduring severe pain every time.


    But even so, Su-ho was the son of Shadow Lord Seong Jin-woo.


    There was even a level-up system, so its potential was indescribable.


    But what about Lim Do-Hyun?


    He was just an ordinary E-ss hunter.


    He was said to be the weakest among the hunters, with physical abilities and recovery abilities that were only slightly better than those of an ordinary person.


    But he had one special talent.


    It was ''running skills''.


    [You don''t need push-ups! Just run and run until you''re almost dead! No, if you stop walking, you will die by my hands!]


    "Hey...."


    As he felt Ammut''s sincere and murderous spirit right behind him, Lim Do-gyun''splexion quickly turned pale.


    Human limitations have already been surpassed.


    Even though he looked like a half-corpse, with his limbs tattered, Lim Do-gyun kept running and running.


    But he still didn''t manage to die.


    The mummy''s bandages wrapped around his body were an evil, or rather useful, item that somehow forcibly fixed his broken body even when his bones crumbled and his muscles and ligaments were torn.


    "I don''t think it was originally meant to be written like that...."


    [what are you talking about? This bandage is a masterpiece by Candiaru, who created it to be used like this!]


    Ammut chuckled and epted Suho''s muttering.


    [Do you know what? I love watching such insignificant creatures struggle to be strong. Usually, they die then. but!]


    And I looked with great satisfaction at Lim Do-gyun, who was still running around inside the pyramid even though he was in a near-dead state.


    [If you somehow survive the pain, that is strength.]


    "...."


    Suho could not help but nod his head at the resonance felt in those words.


    No matter what anyone says, Lim Do-gyun continues the grueling training of his own will.


    As a result, his leg muscles were swollen to the point of bursting.


    Without the help of a level-up system or status window.


    He was just running.


    With one intention to be stronger.


    [So, let''s start the daily quest.]


    Nod.


    Soon, Suho''s training began.


    and.


    [Hmm.]


    Behind them, the newly recruited shadow soldier Harmakan was looking around the pyramid, his eyes shining.


    [This could not be the ce of the great sorcerer Candiaru... ...?]
