Episode 728 Gathering Forces (1)
[Successful in copying the unique spear âHundred Ghostsâ Night Journey â Westâ!]
[Successful in copying the unique spear âSpirit Rushâ!]
The power to handle numerous ghosts and the Miao tribeâs unique skills. Ability to recreate legs.
This time, while visiting Azathothâs palace, I easily copied both unique spears.
In fact, since every minute and every second was a life-threatening situation, it was no problem to raise the heart rate.
âKkeukâ¦Kkeukkeuâ¦.â
Laughter continues to flow.
Is this what it would look like if a lost person kept smiling?
The corner of Jinhyukâs mouth twitched like he had won the lottery.
âTsk, tsk. I finally came to my senses.â
âJinhyuk, why are you acting like that all of a sudden?â
âHaha. My brother is a bit unusual.â
âUgh. They said something big is going to happen soon and they called everyone together. What are they going to do if they just laugh?â
Cheon Yoo-seong, Teresa, Lee Tae-min, and Yoo Yeon-hwa saw Jinhyeok like that and gave different reactions.
However, it is only a formal response. The common thought was that it was insignificant.
After seeing and experiencing that stagnant figure for a long time, I was fully aware that Jinhyeok was not in his right mind.
Either way, Jinhyuk was lost in his own fantasy.
âNyarlathotep, even thinking about how that guy screamed makes me feel relieved.â
A god on the 50th floor who always slips away like a loach and only hits the painful spot. When I thought about the past that I had suffered because of that guy, it felt like all the 10 years of pain were going away all at once.
This is why I say this time and time again: people must live good lives.
Call for retribution.
Because you reap what you sow.
by the way.
âthing. Your hands seem to be a bit slow. âYoung man.â
Jinhyuk approached Orun, who was sweating profusely in the blacksmith shop.
The extreme labor, which had already lasted 77 hours, was lightly violating even the bare minimum of human rights.
Quang! Quang! Quang!
âHuh. Huh. Huhâ¦? Oh no. This isâ¦â
Orun shouted in surprise.
I really only wanted to take a break for about 5 seconds, but I ended up getting stuck on that scene.
âThere are 155 highest-grade magic stones that have been entered so far. âIt is meaningless to count the number of intermediate and low-level magic stones.â
The feeling that was good just a moment ago suddenly cools down.
There are many high treasons in the world, but the most important one is by far the meaningless squandering of a deceased personâs property.
âIâm working hard too. But isnât time too tight? âIâm working without being able to eat, drink, or even sleep!â
Orun defended himself.
Itâs a reasonable story.
of course.
At Goinmul Corporation, employeesâ dissatisfaction had the same meaning as saying they would soon resign.
chuck.
Jinhyuk grabbed the frost spiritâs spear.
âSo?â
âhaha. Thatâs not it⦠just give it a little more time. Itâs not that itâs not. Strengthening âFirst Bladeâ and recombining âBalmungâ isnât that simple, is it? No matter how many drops of water you gave me⦠itâs still too much. âI have no experience dealing with such a thing in the first place.â
âSo, as you wished, you provided Hephaestus with talented blacksmiths and spirit slaves from various places, didnât you?â
The Spirit King and the spirits are eating food in Ellisâ fortress.
Jinhyuk lured them with the lure of magic stones and forcibly imprisoned them in Orunâs blacksmith shop. The goal was to successfully achieve the strengthening goal in a short period of time based on sufficient labor and resources.
âNo more fuss, just one day. âGive me just one more day.â
âExactly one day. âPlease donât disappoint me this time.â
Jinhyuk gave a low warning.
âOf course. âWhen have I ever disappointed you?â
Orun swallowed dry saliva and nodded his head.
âOkay, I guess itâs okay if I make this much of a threat.â
In fact, I knew very well that it was impossible for Orun or Hephaestus to strengthen their weapons in this short period of time.
However, it is more efficient to tighten everything rather than loosen it.
My heart pounded again as I thought about testing out new weapons in the near future.
by the way.
How much progress has been made with the work I left here during my trip to the 50th floor?
âIs Luciferâs side somewhat finished?â
Jinhyeok asked Cheon Yuseong, whose face was still full of contempt.
âWe havenât seen the end yet. Still, I captured what you asked for. âIt will be enough to find the âgap.ââ
The deep part of the demon world that boasts impregnability.
Luciferâs citadel boasted a majesty worthy of its name.
However, it made no sense to completely capture the fortress at this timing in the first place.
Just creating a âvariableâ by mobilizing Cheon Yoo-seong and Teresa. Thatâs enough.
If a full-scale war begins anyway, opportunities to take advantage of the situation will inevitably arise.
âItâs almost now.â
Jinhyuk looked at the dark clouds approaching from afar.
Even without saying it, I could feel the atmosphere of war in the air.
Eden, including Raphael and Uriel. And even the dragon race and the army of the Thousand Ages. The inevitable moment that will truly decide the fate of the upper class has arrived.
The remaining period is about a week.
Jinhyuk thought of the things he had not finished yet.
From now on, we must visit the coalition forces, strengthen solidarity, and distribute the tasks each person must perform.
You must also complete your trump card to win an unfavorable war.
âIt must be very busy.â
A one-time battle with real swords where mistakes are not tolerated.
Jinhyuk calmly began to create a formula for victory in his head.
âââ
âYes, Mike.â
Han Soo-hyuk answered his call as if he had been waiting. But Mike, who was so excited, didnât notice that.
âCan I ask you just one question?â
âThereâs still some time before I get to bat, so yeah, thatâs good. âAs much as you want.â
âthank you. âItâs nothing elseâ¦â
Mikeâs mouth closed as he tried to organize the jumble of questions in his head.
After a very brief silence, his mouth finally opened.
âHow can I throw a ball like that? Is it important to have a constant release point when throwing a knuckleball? Why did you throw a knuckleball today in the first place? âYouâre not really a knuckleball pitcher.â
âI wish I could ask just one question at a time.â
âOh shit. Sorry. I was so excited. Okay, so what Iâm saying isâ¦â
âMike.â
âhmm?â
âFirst of all, the release point is important. Especially when you and I throw a mix of knuckleballs of two speeds. The most important thing is to throw a proper knuckleball. You must not mistake this. To do that, of course, all you have to do is practice. Until the feeling of throwing a fast ball is completely gone. And if you ask me why I threw a knuckleball⦠I donât know. âJust because you want to?â
Mike listened to Han Su-hyuk without being able to close his mouth.
Although he hadnât played for this team for long, he knew how quiet the young Asian player in front of him was usually, so he wondered why he was answering him so kindly right now.
However, it seemed that Han Su-hyukâs words were not over yet.
âThatâs what a knuckleball is anyway. Even I canât guess where the ball will go after leaving my hand. As for the technical part, you already know the answer. So I donât think thatâs what youâre lacking, Mike.â
âWhat am I lacking? What on earth is that?â
âFaith, I am not wrong. âThe belief that the path I have chosen is the right one, and the efforts that can make that belief even stronger.â
âAhâ¦ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs so obvious, right? But thatâs my opinion. Mike, I believe in myself. You are right. Youâre not wrong. âYou just have to keep going.â
There was one more thing that should have followed.
This is what you from the future taught me. You will become a great knuckleball pitcher and survive here for a long time.
Han Soo-hyuk bowed his head toward the microphone, swallowing the words he could never say out loud.
âThanks again Mike. sincerely.â
Mike still didnât know what Han Soo-hyuk meant.
The only thing Mike could do was nod eagerly and thank him for his kindness.
â¦
_
_ Han Soo-hyuk, who hit .400 with 11 home runs and 25 RBIs, has become a strong candidate for the Player of the Month award. âThe zero point hasnât been set yet. âIâm not in my best condition yetâ Baseball fans are shocked]
[Seattle fans: âI became confident after todayâs game. He is the best player in the American League, or even the Big League. I sincerely salute the board for bringing in such a player.]
[Baseball fans at Han Soo-hyukâs starting pitching game, which was broadcast live across the United States again through ESPN, âHe is a tremendous player. Itâs just too bad heâs not our player.â]
âDamn, canât anyone just lend me a pistol?
âWhat do you do with a pistol?
âWhen the general manager went to Korea to recruit an unknown Korean player, I protested in front of the stadium.
âWhat protest?
âDonât worry about unnecessary things and sign a proper free agent contract with our teamâs shortstop.
âWhich team are you on?
âMets
âJesus⦠I really think I need a pistol
âWhat the fuck is that guy? Is that a grade that makes sense? I thought it would just flash for a moment, but itâs still over 40%? What about 22 scoreless innings? No matter how much I throw at 107 mph, does that make sense?
âLooks like you missed the last game, buddy. Want to take a look at this?
â???? What is this again? Why are Toronto idiots swinging and missing on 70 mph balls?
âThatâs a knuckleball.
âKnuckleball? They say heâs a fastball pitcher, but heâs throwing knuckleballs
. Damn, thatâs not important. Anyway, one thing is certain. The winner of the last stove league was Seattle.
âAnyway, that guy looks pretty young. How old is he?
âTwenty-three
âOh my God⦠What on earth was I doing when I was twenty-three?
âHe was probably lying on the sofa watching a pitiful Mets game and eating ice cream.
The interest in Han Soo-hyuk, which started mainly among Seattle fans, is now starting to spread throughout the league in earnest.
Even fans of teams that had never played against Seattle learned about Han Soo-hyuk and were astonished by his amazing achievements.
Meanwhile, Seattleâs journey continued.
In the second game against Toronto, Seattle, which had won its second game in a row with third starter Djimon Anderson Jr. giving up two runs in six innings, was now preparing to meet its next opponent.
The opponent for this three-game series, in which 4th starter Dalvin Schwartz, 5th starter Mike Warren, and 1st starter Ryan Tebow will play, was none other than the Los Angeles Dodgersâ former team that almost released Mike.
