Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

Ch 69

“How is it? Did he get caught? Is he caught?”

The warrior from the Rising Sun guild, who held a two-handed sword, asked Kuschner.

“Huhu, I couldn’t even move. Tikal hyung-nim. There is no cure to fear. We have killed so many people so far. A low-level like him can be insta killed.”

It was necessary to gather a crowd of people in order to cast such a spell. Warlock’s Nightmare skill.

Paralysis caused by poison can be cured using an antidote or cure magic, but fear was a difficult magic to solve.

It was virtually impossible to solve it alone without the help of those around you.

“Hehe. You bastard, what happened to your attitude before? Guys!”

“Yes, hyung-nim.”

“Get ready.”

Obviously, after Kuschner used ‘Nightmare’, he was stuck in the same position as the Musketeer.

‘You bastard. You dare ignore me?’

Anyway, Tikal had no intention of becoming a strong player in Middle Earth.

He played the game to relieve stress. Tikal was level 61, but he thought that his effort was worth it in this low-level section.

‘So Guild Master entrusted me as the action leader, didn’t he? Heuheu. If I pay using those items, will he give me another epaulette (EN:  An ornamentation, worn on the shoulders of a military uniform, as a sign of rank)? Dragging around a dozen or so people that I don’t like is a good way to relieve stress.’

PvP was also a fun activity.

Especially in Middle Earth where one could feel the sense of death.

In any case, it was not only pleasurable to attack and harass others, but it was also recognized as one of the ways to obtain equipment that is difficult to obtain.

‘Kill and obtain money. Killing two birds with one stone. And no one could touch us.’

Rising Sun guild was a guild that killed, threatened, and extorted items on the pretext of guiding nameless users, especially in low-mid level sections.

If one donated a good item, one gets the authority of the ‘action leader’ in the guild.

Action leaders collect rewards to further raise their ranks, and normal guild members pursue PK harder to become action leaders.

In other words, multi-level PK!

The Rising Sun Guild Master must at least know how to deal with people.

“Huh… Are you ready?”

“Yes, hyung-nim!”

Tikal raised one hand after confirming that they were ready.

“Go get him! If you catch him-!”

Taaang—!

Before he could finish, a loud sound rang out.

“Waaah!”

“Uwaak? What!”

“Uh, uh, what happened?” A cry in the midst of confusion.

“T-tikal-nim! Kuschner is d-d-dead!”

“What? Why?”

“That bastard, t-that bastard moved!”

At the guild member’s words, Tikal turned his head again. That bastard? And he saw white smoke that came out of the muzzle of the musket.

Did that low-level who was feared, really move? Wasn’t he supposed to be unable to move for two minutes?

“No way, how…. Does it mean he was not feared?”

[You resisted the ‘Fear’ abnormal status.]

‘Yes, I didn’t get feared.’

Leeha moved quickly again. There was nothing to worry about. He must win! Leeha’s judgment was swift.

‘Delicate Hand Technique.’

[Beginner’s Delicate Hand Technique (Lv.1)]

Description: A skilled musketeer can always pour the precise amount of gunpowder. Always keeps his hands precise.

Effect: Fixed reload time of 30 seconds for 5 minutes.

Mana: 100

Cooldown: 6 hours.

Leeha marveled at the effectiveness of Agonia Oso’s set equipment.

It was the basic effect of 3 pieces of equipment. His total resistance to fear was a whopping 50%.

If the opponent had a 100% chance of applying the Nightmare skill, there was a one in two chance of resisting.

How much more would the probability rise if the fear was only cast by a level 55 user?

If the resistance was 50%, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was impossible to get feared.

Besides, he was prepared for the fear by listening to their chatter. He did not have to wait anymore.

‘They were already chaotic users. It means that there would be no penalty even if I attacked them first.’

Leeha’s movements were quick.

As soon as he picked up the gunpowder bag, he was sensitive enough to measure its weight.

Just like a skilled violin player, the second reload ended like flowing water.

His enemies were still in chaos.

“Come on, get him! Hey! All of you, get that bastard! Don’t we have any ice magic”

“N-no one came with us today. I will shoot first!”

One archer stepped forward. He was holding a longbow. His range was sufficient.

“Shoot him! Add poison and slow him down!”

“Okay, I’ll get him in one shot, hyung-nim. Keok!”

At that moment, another gunshot rang. –Taaang!

At the same time, the archer holding the longbow flew backward.

“W-what?”

The archer’s corpse turned gray and rolled on the floor.

Leeha’s hand started to move like lightning again.

“That, that bastard uses a gun! Shield up! Block in front of me!”

It was only then that Tikal realized the seriousness of the situation.

He was a low level? Then how could they explain this? Did he kill the level 55 Kuschner and level 53 Jinai in one shot? He himself couldn’t even do that?

In fact, Leeha was in an extremely unfavorable situation.

Even if only two of them attacked at the same time, or even with just one, Leeha would run into serious trouble.

He was 50m away, and even if he ran, they would reach him in 30 seconds.

The Rising Sun members were in a panic by Leeha’s overwhelming attack power.

“I’m going to stop him, Tikal-nim!”

Petal Kim approached and stood in front of Tikal. Tikal looked at Leeha and screamed again.

“What are you bastards doing? Hurry up and get him!”

Tikal shouted like a whale for the first time.

The tankers and dealers ran towards Leeha. After that, one healer and one wizard followed. Leeha became impatient.

“Hyung-nim, his reload time is long. I know because I saw it before” said Petal Kim.

“Really? Well then, we’ll catch him soon……”

Baaang–!

A gunshot rang out again.

Before the tanker and dealer could get close, another gunshot rang out, and the healer’s head exploded.

“I thought he had a long reload time?”

Tikal glared at Petal Kim as if to kill him, but he did not get angry anymore. Right now, the musketeer was the priority.

He could punish Petal Kim later after they caught that guy.

“Move quickly, you bastards, are you saying that bastard is a low-level?”

“W-well, he must have been level 30…”

Tikal raised his head and glared at Petal Kim.

In the meantime, Leeha looked at the approaching Rising Sun guild members.

They started running and were about 15m away. It was now impossible to reload while standing.

“Catch him! Catch and kill him!”

Leeha ran without pouring gunpowder.

“He ran away, hyung-nim!”

Tikal got feverish. How could they be so incompetent! To be fooled by a single user who was low leveled compared to themselves!

“Then follow him, you bastards! Don’t just tell me!”

And looking at Petal Kim, he said.

“You bastard, pick the kids’ stuff.”

Then, Petal Kim looked around. There were already three dead people with their equipment dropped before disappearing. Petal Kim moved to pick them up, but a tanker’s bewildered voice was heard from behind.

“Hyung-nim… the way that bastard ran… wasn’t it into the kobold village?”

A tanker tilted his head and looked at Tikal.

“You bastard, how many level 50 users are here, and you’re afraid to go inside the kobold village! Do you want to die?”

“No. I’m sorry.”

“Anyway, you bastards… Hey, Petal Kim, you follow too.”

“You follow that bastard! Run-!”

“Shut up, three people have already died because of you. Do you know what happens to you, the informant, if this fails?”

Gulp, at Tikal’s words, Petal Kim swallowed dry saliva.

“Yes. I know hyung-nim.”

“Then, shut up and follow me!”

Tikal released all of his irritation and annoyance and pursued Leeha.

“Ma-chan, Ma-chan. They just entered the village!”

“Shh, be quiet, Hana-chan. Just watch.”

“Will mister Ha Leeha be okay?”

“Well. If he asked for help, we would have helped, but he didn’t. Anyways, Koreans…”

“Isn’t he cool? Kek, I thought I was watching a movie. After all, there was no way we could help!”

“Hmm, why not, Hana-chan. We have brought a lot of things in advance. I could have killed ten of them in 5 minutes.”

Matsushige took off his helmet and scratched his head.

“Hey, what did you get from Oto-san, Ma-chan?”

“Well, this and that. He told me to use it when Hana-chan is in danger.”

“Hmmph, don’t talk to me! But why did the Rising Sun come?”

Mame Hana made a pitiful expression on her face, then quickly released it and asked Matsushige.

“They said Ha Leeha is a looter. I don’t know.”

“Did you report it to Oto-san?”

“I did not. I only mentioned that the Rising Sun appeared. Its master is ‘Kyokujitsu’, right? Oto-san will get in touch with you. I don’t think we should interfere.”

“What do you mean?”

Mame Hana looked at Matsushige with her eyes twinkling.

‘You look like you’re dying of fun.’

It was the complete opposite of the naive appearance she had so far.

“They want you to keep a good record. They didn’t say anything when I said he killed a Warlock and Archer in their 50s.”

“Hweeee! Hana-chan was very surprised by that! Didn’t you use a scroll? How is it possible, he is really only level 27? Although his abilities are hidden…  is there something, Ma-chan?”

Mame Hana wanted to follow them to the village, even now.

“Well…  Anyway, there must be a reason why Oto-san designated him as a potential threat. Not even a level 30 is that strong…  how much stronger would he be at level 200, no, at level 100?”

Matsushige put on his helmet again as he continued speaking.

“It looks like they are all inside, shall we go too, Hana-chan?”

“Yes. Let’s go, Ma-chan.”

Matsushige and Mame Hana, who had been hiding in the thicket, entered Hijuit Tribe Village.

Gunshots could be heard from inside.
