Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

Ch 27

In front of her, blue energy was fluttering and lumping together.

Kureureung，dark clouds began to cover the sky. As the cold wind began to blow in the sky, the Golden Eagle King and its subordinate slowly flew down.

Ppiiik-!

“H-hwajeong-ah? What spell is that?”

The sky began to darken.

There was a change in the weather that caused Hwayeon to feel overwhelming fear, however Hwajeong is still casting calmly.

A rune(語) verse，the dark clouds gathering in the sky grew thicker every time a verse is spoken. The blue energy in the atmosphere entered Hwajeong’s chest, passed through her hands and went to her fingertips.

‘Cool.’

A type of magic that even Hwayeon has never seen，Like blue crystals, the energy gathered at Hwajeong’s fingertips looked like sapphire.

“Oops. I also need to cast.”

Hwayeon, who was looking at the growing blue sapphire, started casting. The rune verse coming from Hwajeong’s mouth stopped.

And after a short while.

“Blizzard.”

Ppiiiiik—! The Golden Eagle King dove in a hurry after Hwajeong started chanting, it needed to kill the human that is releasing a sense of danger.

However, it was already too late.

Suddenly, a crazy strong wind started blowing into the sky of the Candle Mountain.

The wind was so strong that it made it difficult for even the Golden Eagle King, the ruler of the Candle Mountain, to fly properly.

A huge chunk of ice flew along the strong wind.

“It’s hard to control its power. Finish it well. You might level up thrice with this.”

Hwajeong disbanded the party with Hwayeon without confirming the result.

And she immediately went out of the Instant Dungeon by using return magic.

After getting hit by the Blizzard, the eagles flying in the sky could not withstand it and dropped to the ground, while the creatures on the ground froze and died.

Ram Hwayeon was the only one who survived the hellish blizzard，and her flame arrow flew towards the Golden Eagle King.

“Now then. Jing Gong Gong-nim，do you have “One with Nature”?”

“One with Nature? Yes, I have it.”

Jing Gong Gong responded to Biyemi’s question by opening his skill window. A skill that assimilates with nature to increase resilience.

However, it is a strange skill that cannot be used during battle.

Skills are only effective when maintaining peace, it can only be used during recovery time when the hunt is over. This is one of the reasons why druids cannot become a full healer and tanker.

“Halee Halee-nim, get behind us.”

“Behind? Why?”

“Kiki, you’ll see it soon.”

Biyemi immediately started casting. The green light got sucked into his body in an instant. The dark green color is hard to miss even in a lush mountain.

“Poison Spit!”

It looked like something similar to lying down and spitting on your own face. Biyemi quickly finished spitting, no, casting poison on his body.

“B-Biyemi-nim? What are you doing?”

Leeha thought it was absurd and it flustered Jing Gong Gong. However, Biyemi only continued spitting.

“Use One with Nature and follow me. Ha Leeha-nim please get behind us.”

“Are you going to lure the wolves?”

“Kiki, watch. Nothing will happen.”

Biyemi took the lead with confidence.

Jing Gong Gong and Leeha had no choice but to follow him with dubious expressions.

If you walk in without countermeasures, what will happen if dozens Servant Wolves are aggroed at the same time? It would be the worst situation.

In general, for completing the Golden Eagle quest, dragging the aggro of 5 or more servant wolves at once would result in failure. Moreover, there are dozens of servant wolves on the Candle Mountain.

And it would take 10 minutes to climb the mountain And from the start, they have already encountered a horde of Servant Wolves.

“I see a wolf in front.”

Leeha said quietly. Beasts’ hearing should not be ignored. However, Biyemi only nodded and kept walking.

“Biyemi-nim! Biyemi-nim!”

“Please wait and see.”

Grrrr, grrrr.

‘Damn it, is he crazy? If he wants to die, he should die alone.’

Leeha opened his bag but Jing Gong Gong was already chasing Biyemi, so he had no choice but to follow. When the battle breaks out, he will quickly open the gunpowder wrapper.

“Hm?”

No battle occurred.

Kungkung, Grrrr.

“As expected. Kikikit, I knew it. These guys won’t attack us preemptively.”

“No way! The Servant Wolves are making the Golden Eagle quest very difficult! How did you do this?”

Jing Gong Gong raised his voice and quickly lowered it again.

The servant wolves around have crumpled noses, and they couldn’t get close to Biyemi.

No, it wasn’t the extent that they couldn’t get close, but rather, it was more accurate to say that they are avoiding Biyemi.

“It’s because my body is covered with poison.. Kikit, they’re are pretty, so they know when the food is dangerous. I didn’t choose to be a Lizardman for nothing.”

Biyemi looked at Leeha and Jing Gong Gong while gesturing a V-sign.

“Why did you pick Lizardfolk?”

“Our race have basic resistance to poison. Human Venom Mages don’t.” Leeha was taken aback when Biyemi said “our” race so naturally, but what he mentioned about Lizardfolk shocking itself.

Figuring out the basic resistance value of the race and using it in this way?

Leeha was in awe. He had no choice but to admire it.

Dozens of Servant Wolves were rendered useless. It was like Moses in the Red Sea, everywhere the lizard stepped a path is opened.

“H-h-how about me?”

“Jing Gong Gong-nim used One with Nature! Now, won’t Jing Gong Gong-nim look like a huge tree to these guys? Kikikit. And with this, the wolves won’t be able to come this way, naturally Ha Leeha-nim would also be safe.”

Targeting the Game System’s gap.

Finding hidden Easter eggs and using them. This is exactly what Goople intended, but he’s only found a ten-level attack!

Lee Ha-ha looked at Biyemi without hiding her surprise.

Overwhelming advantage over in-game settings and information. However, it is the first time that Biyemi executed it, a rather excited expression was revealed on his face.

‘Amazing. It’s literally that the game is real. Avoid the job mobs that don’t even give you experience like this, If you pour all your saved power on the golden eagle. It’s definitely possible with three people now.’

Because there are only three of them, this strategy will work.

A level 10 Lizardman with the job of Venom Mage cannot clear it by himself.

Of course, it cannot be cleared by the level 10 Giant Druid alone. Even if these two people form a party, it is still impossible to clear the quest.

Even if they are able to avoid the Servant Wolf and climb to the top, they won’t be able to kill the quest boss, the Golden Eagle King, because there won’t be enough dealers.

But now it is different. Thanks to ignoring the Servant Wolves, Leeha was able to save all 40 sets of gunpowder.

With the musket several level stronger than magic of the same level, we could pour it all over the Golden Eagle if Jing Gong Gong can hold up for a little bit.

Clearing the quest will no longer be a dream.

Kkaaak–!

In the middle of the Servant Wolves’ habitat, above the party, a crow’s cry was heard. A crow’s cry. A feeling of embarrassment emerged in Biyemi’s face.

“Oh! The crow! Unsummon the crow Jing Gong Gong-nim!”

“Yes?”

No matter how tame the summoned crow is, there was no way to keep it calm as they passed through an area full of wolves.

A wild crow would have run away.

With Jing Gong Gong’s hospitality, the crow’s intimacy with its summoner is at 100%, which would mean that it also has high loyalty .

It was enough to peck the Servant Wolf’s eyes.

“C-cancel summon!”

With Jing Gong Gong’s quick casting. The crow flying towards the wolf disappeared like a lie. To be exact, it was sent back to nature’s subspace, it can be summoned again once the cooldown is over.

But it’s already too late.

“umm……. We might get logged out like this.”

Biyemi swallowed dry saliva..

The flustered lizard rolls his eyes around, but it’s already too late.

Clear intent to attack. Fortunately, the attack was not successful, so it was not 100 percent agro, but the attitude of the Servant Wolves changed just by trying to attack.

The wolves are no longer retreating. They surrounded the party as they were familiar with group hunting.

The servant wolves are ready to attack the unidentified being that threatened them.

“Haa. Sorry, I’m really sorry. I’ll stop them, so you guys go down the mountain quickly. If you run fast, you will be able to get out of here.”

Jing Gong Gong tightened his gloves.

He is determined to pay for his mistakes with his life. Biyemi as well thought that this would be the end of hunting with Jing Gong Gong.

The number of wolves surrounding the area is more that 20. It would be better for someone to sacrifice themselves for a hunt that would fail anyway.

“Thank you, Jing Gong Gong-nim.”

“No. It’s my fault. Even if you don’t have me, you will be able to complete the quest as long as you find a tank. Don’t mind me, just go. I’ll come back in 48 hours..”

Quest failure and death.

Level down and no access for 48 hours.

That’s 48 hours in real time, so it’s 10 days in Middle Earth. Even if Jing Gong Gong, who has fallen to level 9, reconnects, it will be quite different from Leeha and Biyemi.

Tsk, It can be said that once Jing Gong Gong dies, the three people will not be able to party again..

“I-I’ll whisper to you, so please don’t ignore it.”

“That won’t happen. Thank you, Jing Gong Gong-nim. Haa, you will have to hold on to your stamina.”

Biyemi fell back and relaxed his ankle..

Before the Giant dies, they must reach the foot of the mountain and get to the escape point of the instance dungeon.

Even that isn’t really easy. Jing Gong Gong is not a regular tanker, and if there are 20 wolves, he will die in no time.

“W-wait. Please don’t attack, Jing Gong Gong-nim. Everyone hang on.”

It was then that Leeha stepped forward.

When everyone was bound to fall into despair, Leeha held his musket.

“Why? If you are late, you will be attacked first. I’d rather hit quickly and you guys run away-”

“If Jing Gong Gong-nim dies, we can’t hunt in a party again. It’s not good to break up like this.”

Leeha held his musket and spoke.

“If we live, we live together, if we die, we die together.”

“Leeha-nim.

Even a 2m 50cm creature has tears. When Leeha saw the giant’s eyes getting wet, he was rather flustered.

“Do you have a way? With a musket……

Biyemi’s words were quick. The story of not having that much time. Leeha made eye contact with Biyemi and laughed.

And he went into the reload without a word.

“HaliHali-nim?”

What are you doing? Biyemi and Jing Gong Gong’s eyes were focused on Leeha. Is there anything else? Something like the secret weapon you’ve been hiding until now?

However, he only poured gunpowder. No bullet came out of Leeha’s pockets.

No, it was a little weird. Did he pour gunpowder twice?

“What are you doing? Flint?”

“Keukeuk. Cover your ears.”

Leeha raised the musket’s muzzle to the sky. His index finger twitched. BAAAAANG—!”!

“Uwaah!”

“Keuk, my ear hurts!”

Jing Gong Gong and Biyemi frowned. My head was dizzy at the loud explosion that seemed to have rang all over the Candle Mountain.

“What are you doing, will the wolves die when you suddenly shoot up to the sky?”
