Chapter 77: Counterattack
[◇ Baek Woohyun –〔Eliminate〕–> (Anonymous)]
-“……”
Baek Woohyun didn’t look at the user who flew away with a crushing sound—no, the Mannequin that had been a user.
Not only had the Kill Log announcing the user’s death appeared, but he was confident through the sensation at his fingertips that his single strike had killed the user.
He didn’t feel the characteristic resistance of those who had invested in Core Elents related to physical enhancent from the opponent, which ant they couldn’t withstand his single strike.
Instead of paying attention to the dead user, what he chose was to seek out new prey.
Having just achieved 4 Kills, he was still hungry for Kills.
Coincidentally, those who had more or less finished farming were heading this way after hearing the commotion caused by the two people he had just killed.
With prey running toward his maw of their own accord, how could he waste ti elsewhere?
Tat!
-Is that what they call a speedster or whatever?
-What the hell
-They’re people abroad call really fast people, yeah
-I didn’t know it was possible to move this fast in RePla;;
“Wow, just watching makes my eyes spin—how is he even running like that?”
“I know, right?”
-For real, if it were
I’d crash into sothing imdiately
-This is why they call him Hackphysical
-He’d probably be good at Blue Lightning too?
-It really is dizzying lol
In the studio watching Baek Woohyun move at trendous speed, exclamations kept bursting out.
Like Cha Seongcheol, they too had played virtual reality gas and understood how difficult it was to move at ultra-high speed.
Especially since Baek Woohyun was even ambushing enemies while striding up building walls in the midst of it all, their exclamations showed no signs of ending.
One funny thing was that they no longer felt any surprise.
Whether Baek Woohyun walked on walls as if freed from gravity’s influence, or even went beyond that to walk in the sky, they weren’t surprised at all.
It was because they had naturally developed a mindset that they should just watch in blank admiration since nothing he did would be strange anymore.
-“Crazy…!”
[◇ Baek Woohyun –〔Eliminate〕–> (Anonymous)]
-1 Kill added lol
-Still, he left last words, so Tier 1 reaction speed
-For real lol, the rest just died in a flash
-How is soone’s last words ‘crazy’ lololol
The user who had been running first died after being shocked to see Baek Woohyun running on a wall.
But how could you call that his fault?
A person was running on a wall, defying gravity.

Thus, ti passed that was enjoyable for viewers and hellish for those at the Military Base.
The Kill Log that kept rising without stopping felt almost like a hacker was openly bursting the ga, so what more needed to be said?
This was a result that had already been decided once the monster called Baek Woohyun seriously began hunting, but other users couldn’t possibly know that.
It wasn’t easy to think that a natural disaster that hadn’t yet gone to the Heavenly Realm would be in this bracket.
‘LifeAchieventGrandMaster’ donated ‘1000 won’!
[If you think hack reports are going to pour in against Hackphysical after this round ends, upvote lololol]
-Starting with
lololol
-I’d definitely think it’s hacks and report lol
-If it were
I’d file a report first too, for real
-Nope~ According to operator statent, it’s not hacks~
“Maybe the people who died just now are reporting while watching the Death Cam.”
“But to be honest, if this happened to
when I was solo ranking alone, I would have reported too. It’s stranger for this not to be hacks.”
Even Cha Seongcheol and Jeong Nayeon nodded in agreent at the donation saying hack reports would be rampant.
Certainly, even in their view, the overwhelming performance Baek Woohyun was showing now looked like speed hacks and auto-battle hacks.
The sight of him running on building walls would seem like he used so other hack.
-“Ah, fuck. Those hacker bastards, really—”
The user who was trying to escape from the Military Base while spewing curses didn’t perceive the Grim Reaper that had sohow descended behind his back.
Of course, even if he had perceived it, nothing would have changed. At best, he would have tried to throw a supernatural ability technique and failed.
Just as the vast majority of users who had died at Baek Woohyun’s hands had done.
Udeuk.
[◇ Baek Woohyun –〔Eliminate〕–> (Anonymous)]
Baek Woohyun quietly grabbed the user’s head and twisted it without even giving ti to react.
Since humans were creatures that couldn’t survive even if their neck was completely twisted backward, it was an extrely natural result that the user beca a Mannequin.
It goes without saying that the Kill Log that would feel like a tireso nightmare to the current in-ga mbers followed.
-“Hu.”
Having obtained 15 Kills, Baek Woohyun finally stopped, briefly exhaling. It was because there were no more enemies within the range his senses could reach.
According to what he had confird earlier, there were nineteen total who started at the Military Base, and excluding the four who died fighting each other, all had died at his hands.
At that ti, he had thought that if he moved busily, he could eliminate at least ten or more people, and it turned out to be just as he had thought.
-“So it’s half now.”
However, Baek Woohyun was absolutely not satisfied with that. For him, who had revealed his true self, fifteen was far too insufficient to be full.
He was soone who had averaged 25 Kills per round even before seriously committing. There was no way he’d be satisfied with just about 15 Kills.
Abandoning the now-empty hunting ground called the Military Base, he imdiately ran to another area. To eliminate the new prey there.
Kwadeuk!
[◇ Baek Woohyun –〔Eliminate〕–> (Anonymous)]
Thus, the monster that left the Military Base devoured every enemy he encountered, regardless of location.
At the beach, on the school playground, inside the cathedral, in the forest, in residential area alleys, in empty lots in the slums, at the temple—he eliminated every visible enemy.
Kill Logs bearing the three-character na Baek Woohyun appeared ceaselessly, and proportionally, the number of survivors rapidly decreased.
This result was as good as proving without exception what happened when Baek Woohyun truly went on a rampage.
Additionally, it showed just how much he had been holding back while doing PVP. Even with an average of 25 Kills or whatever, he hadn’t shown anything like his current self.
The strength he showed back then was overwhelming too, but no matter what, it paled in comparison to now.
-“……”
Well, PVP inevitably had to be that way, unlike PVE like story progression.
The one presud to be the developer, Anonymous Viewer 62, had shown interest in the forr, so it wasn’t strange at all that Baek Woohyun’s interest also leaned that way.
In fact, if not for the broadcast, his PVP might have ended with the Survival match against Jeong Nayeon.
Because he had already grasped at that ti that PVP was nothing special, just like the experints he had experienced as a Test Subject.
And this was connected to the reason he was seriously engaging in this round.
Donating several hundred thousand won at once was behavior Anonymous Viewer 62 had often shown, so just in case, he aid for mission success at full power.
Of course, if it had been Anonymous Viewer 62’s mission, Jeong Nayeon would have said so, so the probability was low, but even so, it was sufficient reason to do his best.
Even if not, he could obtain the huge sum of two million won through sothing not particularly difficult, so it was natural to do it.
-This confirms legendary 40 Kills
-Unless the opponent leaves, it’s really 40 Kills
-Fuck lololol, 40 out of 100 people lololol
-At this rate he’ll even do 50 Kills alone
When Baek Woohyun had long since passed the mission requirent of 30 Kills and was now approaching the legendary Kill count of 40 Kills, only one survivor remained.
He circled the places that hadn’t yet beco restricted areas searching for the final survivor, and strangely enough, was able to find them without much difficulty.
Because the opponent wasn’t hiding and enduring but was leisurely walking through the residential area.
At a glance, it looked like they had completely given up, enough that so viewers chatted ‘They gave up, yeah,’ ‘GG.’
Tat!
Thinking it was the end now, Baek Woohyun imdiately rushed toward the final survivor.
The distance that had existed between the two people narrowed instantly, and the mont he raised his fist to smash the opponent’s head—a reversal occurred.
The opponent, who he thought was showing their back defenseless, instantly turned around and targeted Baek Woohyun with an elbow!
Huuk!
-“…!”
Baek Woohyun hastily leaned back at the waist to dodge the elbow coming at his eyes. It was a truly precarious evasion, the elbow brushing past the tip of his nose.
Then, kicking off the ground and retreating, he steadied his posture while glaring at the final survivor. Truly, it was an unexpected counterattack.
Even though he was still moving at ultra-high speed even at the end, the opponent had reacted and attacked, so it was understandable.
Moreover, the opponent had been turned around, unable to see him!
-“…..”
-“……”
In the brief standoff that followed, Baek Woohyun calmly examined his opponent.
The opponent, wearing the combat uniform characteristic of Otherworld Managent Bureau agents, was completely covered so no skin was exposed. Even wearing a gas mask along with gloves.
They had so perfectly hidden their identity that even with privacy protection mode on, no mask was applied. The system had judged it unnecessary.
“Reacting to that attack just now…?”
“And even counterattacking from a turned-around state— hmm—”
-Did the original hacker appear?
-The look is definitely a hacker look
-Don’t make hasty assumptions
-This bracket makes it not hasty at all
The studio buzzed at the reversal that occurred right before mission success. With Baek Woohyun quite surprised as well, they couldn’t be calm either.
It was natural since the opponent, who they thought had exposed their back defenseless, had suddenly reacted to the ambush and even counterattacked.
Among them, so hasty ones speculated the opponent might be a hacker, and given the precedent, their speculation carried considerable weight.
After all, the one who had appeared saying they’d re-educate Baek Woohyun in Duel had also been a hacker.
Chyeok!
Around the ti studio opinion was heating up, the final survivor clenched their fist tightly and took a stance.
It was an action clearly showing the will to settle things with barehanded combat rather than supernatural ability techniques or weapons.
A hacker—or more precisely, soone speculated to be a hacker—was showing the will to settle things with fists against none other than Hackphysical Baek Woohyun.
The watching studio went wild again, but Baek Woohyun, who had to fight from now on, just calmly took a stance in response.
-“…..”
-“……”
Tat!
Baek Woohyun and his opponent simultaneously kicked off the ground and rushed toward each other, as if they had planned it.
Surprisingly, the speed at which the two moved was nearly identical, and because of that, they closed to striking distance in the blink of an eye.
It was from there that the choices of the two, even wearing the sa outfit, diverged.
