Still, the fact that someone who departed from Hwanghae Province has already found me…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant the opponent’s mobility was nearly double that of Negwig’s normal speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the second one was…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweeeeesh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Insane…!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long-range sniper who had been steadily targeting Negwig since earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like they were planning to completely block the mobility first and then deal with it slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In stark contrast to shouting to expose oneself immediately, the actual combat was being conducted very rationally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘They’re not an ordinary opponent. It’s evident they’ve subdued many people with a bow.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing another arrow narrowly skim past Negwig’s ear, Yeongwoo glanced again at the Hwanghae Strongest Sword, which was pulling the bowstring again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I need to narrow the distance for now. This won’t do.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the opponent was persistently targeting Negwig instead of Yeongwoo, the sensory deprivation of the golden flash didn’t trigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, allowing the sniper to continue shooting like this would eventually lead to being hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s use full power. I need to make you attack me, not Negwig, to have a chance of winning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing towards the Hwanghae Strongest Sword on the hill, Yeongwoo spoke to Negwig, and it seemed to understand as it snorted heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hyyyyyyah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, it immediately started a full-speed rush towards the Hwanghae Strongest Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wha…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The approach speed of the black horse was much faster than expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Negwig covered over two hundred meters in the blink of an eye, the contours of the opponent’s face finally came into focus for Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hwanghae Strongest Sword was a small-built woman in her late twenties, but oddly enough…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What’s that?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a holographic interface floating near her right eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked like a sniper scope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Could it be a real scope?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo couldn’t help but think so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given how she managed to make accurate shots from such a long distance, he had been curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how high her sensory capabilities were, weren’t there limits?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if she had equipment that corrected her vision or sight like that, the situation would change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hyyyyyyah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Negwig, who had been the target until now, brought the opponent within visibility, emitting an angry sound, Yeongwoo also menacingly extended the “Iron Cutter,” a variant spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Armor Cutter」 – Mutant Spear\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Ignores 50% of physical damage reduction.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using its longer reach compared to conventional weapons, he intended to pressure the opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘If they handle things much better than expected, I’ll have to create some variables with the Black Sword at that time.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the distance between him and the Hwanghae Strongest Sword rapidly closed, Yeongwoo noticed that the red glow emanated from the Dragon’s Legacy, which he had stored in his belt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the opponent was also a Grade 2 or lower human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the Hwanghae’s Strongest Sword let out a venomous shout as she saw South Korea’s Strongest Sword rushing towards her like cavalrymen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How dare you…! Die, you bastard!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the distance had significantly shortened, Yeongwoo also heard the sound of a bowstring being pulled in his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for the first time, this happened:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Sensory values have temporarily increased from the previous 1400 to 3000.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden flash had seized the opponent’s senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was a staggering value of 1600.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among all the Strongest Swords he had encountered, this one had the highest sensory perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it because she primarily used a bow as her weapon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘No matter what, could she have heightened her senses to this extent?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was a favorable situation for Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering his ability to halve the opponent’s senses unconditionally, this was a fight he couldn’t lose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shwaaaah…!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo’s senses soared to 3000, the Hwanghae Strongest Sword also seemed to sense something amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being someone whose original sensory value was not just 1 or 2 thousand but a staggering 3200, and being someone who used a bow where precision was crucial, she immediately realized that there was a problem with her own senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of trickery is this now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While aiming at Yeongwoo’s chest, she released her hand from the bowstring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, from the seemingly empty front part of the bow, an arrow suddenly flashed out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kwiiiiing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silver-white arrow shot out towards Yeongwoo with a speed comparable to a fired bullet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the distance between both sides being only tens of meters, the arrow inevitably struck Yeongwoo’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ka-aang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo, startled, screamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the first time he had been hit by an arrow in his life, and above all, the area around his chest hurt terribly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Even with all the equipment I’ve covered myself with, I couldn’t dodge an arrow flying straight at me from up close.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Golden Oath」- Legendary Breastplate\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Reduces enemy attack power by 50%.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Accumulated Golden Ratio:

is the highest attribute, gain 10% damage reduction.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was also thanks to having such equipment “covered” that he survived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation he had just gone through, which he passed over with regret, was a miracle that could not happen to the Hwanghae Strongest Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘That arrow… he was definitely hit, right?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hwanghae Strongest Sword, Park Seolhwa09.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She cast a fearful glance at the unexpected turn of events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had just witnessed her arrow not only failing to pierce the opponent’s chest but also being deflected by the golden armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she should at least tidy up her fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang, clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being hit by arrows, the strange South Korean Strongest Sword continued to approach on horseback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he was brushing off his chest as if it tickled where the arrow had struck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘No, even after being hit by an arrow?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason Seolhwa primarily used a bow as her weapon was because she used to be an archer before the reset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Translator – Night]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proofreader – Gun]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an Olympic sport called “archery” in South Korea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The advantage of the bow was undoubtedly one-sided killing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the first shot was blocked or missed, she could shoot more while the opponent approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to this, Seolhwa had never been exposed to the opponent’s range until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, for the first time, she encountered an opponent who didn’t even bleed after being hit by her arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Maybe he… dodged it?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a frightened expression, Seolhwa hastily drew her bowstring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, seeing the iron horse charging towards her, she gave up her follow-up attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because the South Korean Strongest Sword, riding the horse, was swinging a club-like weapon ignorantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whaaaack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tremendously powerful attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just brushing against it would tear one’s body apart, so Seolhwa rolled back to avoid it and leaped high backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it just the distance from the ground?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could create enough sniping distance even in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘This time, it’s your head!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Seolhwa, who leaped about ten meters into the air, aimed her bow at her opponent again, Yeongwoo, who was watching her, suddenly soared into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paaaah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even reached a much higher place than Seolhwa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Climber」 – Mutant Pants\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Leap distance tripled.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo had reached a level where he received equipment buffs for every action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seolhwa, who was trying to re-aim at the opponent who had climbed above her head, frowned as the sunlight pierced her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the meantime…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whaaaack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black streak erupted from Yeongwoo in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a black sword, its blade extended up to six meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seolhwa, who had only been thinking about the range of the spear so far, tried to block the unexpected attack with her bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no other way to block the opponent’s sword in this empty space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in the end…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ka-aang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo’s Black Sword clashed with Seolhwa’s silver-white bowstring, tremendous pressure was transmitted to Seolhwa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the money she had saved had been spent on sensory perception and equipment purchases, so she couldn’t exert strength in such a direct strength fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Seolhwa barely escaped with her life, crashing to the ground, and soon after, Yeongwoo settled down with his black cloak fluttering down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo landed with a metallic sound, Seolhwa, in a last-ditch effort, drew an early bird from her waist and swung it in a counterattack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even this was easily seen through by Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, instead of swinging his sword, he simply stepped on her Early Bird with his foot, blocking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Give up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo’s close combat abilities were unparalleled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo stared down at her, Seolhwa, who was also staring at him, spat out unexpectedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pfft!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even this was blocked by Yeongwoo raising his Black Sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Seolhwa collapsed with a bitter laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo scanned the surroundings to see if there were any other North Korean Strongest Swords around and asked her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you come alone? Did you come right away in anger after hearing about the theft of your title?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Seolhwa looked incredulous and replied sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, did you expect me to stay, have a meeting, and come with others? You should return it soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given that the location of the thief was being transmitted in real-time along with the notification that assets had been leaked, it was ridiculous to just stand by and watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Then maybe another Strongest Sword is coming.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially since there had been no change in location due to fighting with the Hwanghae Strongest Sword for a while…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was possible that they were quietly pursuing him at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyway… I didn’t mean to provoke you on purpose, I’m sorry. Thanks for coming with all this equipment. In a way, I’m grateful too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo said this and looked around again, Seolhwa, realizing that the South Korean was waiting for the next assassin, widened her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You, you bastard. You’re saying that, but you’re also waiting, aren’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo had no intention of lying, so he nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. Since you brought all this equipment to find me. I’m also grateful in a way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo reached out to touch the silver-white bow still in Seolhwa’s hand, a tooltip appeared in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「White Fire」 – Epic Bow\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Sensory perception applies to arrow power.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Power increases with arrow distance.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is my first time getting a bow, but seeing how you used it earlier made me think it would be useful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially for Yeongwoo, who leaps in both strength and perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since arrow distance was based on strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just as he struggled with sniping earlier, this bow would be able to subdue the upcoming North Korean powerhouses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have any last words? Or is there anyone in Hwanghae that you must protect?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo asked for final words, Seolhwa retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re all puffed up just because you won one round! You’re going to regret it today too, you bastard! Soon…!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since there seemed to be no significant last words, Yeongwoo was about to swing his sword when he hesitated for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He almost forgot something very important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, then please listen to me for a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s about the previous battle—it was sponsored by the Universal Weapon Brand Dogo!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am the strongest in Gyeongbuk, Gangnam, and Kaesong on Earth, Jeong Yeongwoo07!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Yeongwoo’s blade swiftly severed the neck of the Hwanghae Strongest Sword in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Translator – Night]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proofreader – Gun]\u003C\u002Fp>",1991,"2026-06-09T07:03:45.853Z",1,"novelbin.me","d94deae2277f86569cfab68441b3fee66c4aae178248131acee9a4b841f0c8b0","level-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-chapter-14","level-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-chapter-123",688,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-cover.jpg"]
