Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter] - Chapter 191
“As usual, there are a lot of warriors.”
Although there were a few wizards present, the area was teeming with warriors wielding blunt weapons. Leeha walked up to the copper mine’s vicinity after passing the location where the stone golems appeared.
‘I need to order some brass ingots ahead of time…’
Hell Anvil’s coordinates were recorded in his crystal ball, ensuring a steady supply of bullets.
Creep-! Creep-!
“It’s been a while. Golems of Stone.”
Leeha didn’t even brush up against the Black Bass he was lugging around on his shoulder.
He didn’t want to waste Black Bass’s eagerly anticipated first shot on a stone golem.
He pulled out his Hummingbird pistol and fired a single shot at the stone golem’s head! He shot the Needlegun-pistol with a grapeshot bullet when the testicles shone through the cracks, and bang-!
When the two gunfire’s merged together, almost like a continuous shot, the stone golem was already falling down.
“Phew…. I have become stronger.”
In the past, to catch a stone golem, he threw bombs, rolled around, and caused a lot of chaos. Now, he could finish it with just two pistols.
‘It must be because the Hummingbird boasts an overwhelming attack power.’
When in the form of a musket, a level 130 monster could be one-shot. It was funny that a party of level 70 users is needed to capture a stone golem.
Leeha was far from where the copper mine could be seen.
“I wish it would come out sooner……”
He munched on a ratman’s jerky and swallowed it. Anyway, there was no guarantee that the Brass Golem would come out right away as it was a field boss….
Muooooh, muooooh—!
“Huh, ask and it shall be given.”
Just in time, the Brass Golem respawned.
A gigantic golem that flashed gold.
Surprised by its robot-like appearance, the surrounding users began to run away all over the place.
‘About 15 minutes or so before a raid team arrives. Hmmm, 15 minutes……’
Leeha slowly sat down.
Whether you call it [Legendary Black Bass] or [Black Bass: SASR], it’s a weapon that even the dwarves fear putting a magazine on.
Clap!
Muooooh-!
‘The distance is 330m, the speed is 9 no 10m/s. Wind direction, southeast.’
If it was a normal musket, these conditions would make the aiming point move by quite a bit. However, what about now?
Leeha’s aim did not deviate much from the head of the Brass Golem. It was shifted at most by one click .
If he shot a musket like this, it would only hit the Brass Golem’s chest.
“It would be like it used to be.”
Hoooo…….
Leeha slowly calmed his breathing. Haaaa…….
With the same tension as when he first fired a musket in Middle Earth, Leeha slowly pulled the trigger.
Baaang!
“Ack!”
A tremendous recoil crushed Leeha’s body.
“Huh, it’s stronger than I thought……. It would be unreasonable to stand and shoot this.”
The recoil was so strong even though the repulsion force was dispersed a lot in the prone shooting position. If there was no separate support, Leeha thought it would be quite difficult to shoot in a standing and even in a kneeled down position
‘Luger must have raised his level and stats. In order to shoot that large cannon… He must have had an overwhelming center of gravity, enough to overcome the repulsive force-’
Leeha looked at his body for a moment and hurriedly raised his head.
Right, what were you thinking! He was hunting the field boss solo!
“What?”
However, the shape of the Brass Golem, which had a golden color, was no longer normal.
Muoooh–…….
He saw a lump of brass falling down the floor, with a scream.
The stone golems that came out as guards of the field boss also stopped moving and were scattered here and there. They had no idea how the boss died.
And seeing that figure, Leeha quickly looked around.
“Did I catch it?”
Was there anyone else there? No, it can’t be.
Before and now, no users could be seen. Seeing the signal flare flying at the foot of the mountain, the raid team was only starting to gather.
“Then really……?”
One shot? Did I kill the Brass Golem in one shot? It’s a field boss. It’s not even a level 30-40 boss, it’s level 100 or higher.
When comparing a level 130 normal monster to a level 100-110 field boss, of course the field boss would be stronger.
From skill usage, patterns, and guard monsters, to overall health, it was overwhelming.
“However, it died in one shot…. He, hehe, hehehe.”
Leeha couldn’t even close his wide-open mouth and looked at the Black Bass.
A bullet shell that had bounced off after firing was lying around. It didn’t use gunpowder, so it didn’t produce smoke like a musket.
The legendary weapon did a great job worthy of its name.
“It’s really great. Besides, the notification window- no, let’s pack up first!”
Leeha picked up the bullet shell, put it in his pocket, and stood up. It was quite sad that he had to pick up the casings in the game, but he had no choice if he wanted to save even a penny.
Before anyone else came, he had to erase his traces and collect all the Brass Golem’s items.
“Hu, hu, what is it this time~?”
[Brass Golem’s Special Plate Boots], and 2 Brass Ingots were waiting for Leeha.
“As expected.”
He thought that the Brass Ingots had a 100% chance to drop.
As for equipment, there were different parts, and the number of equipment dropped would also be different, so in the worst case, not even one would drop…….
‘Anyway, it’s a profitable business. With one shot of 20 silver, it’s like I’m getting 100 new shots!’
If he had a brass ingot, he could purchase 5 shots for 1 gold. That’s a total of 20 sets.
The Brass Golem’s shield costs 180 gold, so the boots must be over 200 gold!
Satisfied with his achievement, he tore a scroll. As he chose the capital as his return destination, he heard voices from below.
Come on, everyone, get ready!
Did everyone remember what I said earlier? Lightning magic is absolutely forbidden!
Wah, I’m nervous! This is my first raid!
“Hmm, I’m so sorry about this.”
They must have stopped their hunt, gathered a raid team with difficulty, and came all the way over here.
Because Leeha had looted all the items, the traces of the Brass Golem had already disappeared.
“But isn’t the world such a place? People go through all types of hardships.”
After waiting for 10 seconds to teleport using the crystal ball, Leeha’s figure disappeared.
After that, around 40 users arrived at the copper mines gasping for breath.
“Where’s the Brass Golem?”‘
“Oh? Didn’t it appear around here?”
“What? Where is it?”
They wouldn’t have been able to see even the toes of the Brass Golem no matter how hard they searched.
“Well, please set the starting price to 120 gold.”
After putting the boots in the auction house, Leeha felt more at ease.
After the boots get sold, he would have quite a bit of extra money. If he was in a hurry and did not have a brass ingot he could just buy the bullets for 5 gold per set of 5 shots.
‘Of course, I don’t have to. I would have to turn everything into cash except for the minimum required funds. No, the time has come to change my armor.’
One of the things that was always talked about was how hard it was to change armor.
500, okay. Let’s change it later when the opportunity arises.’
In the end, he left like that.
After leaving the auction house, Leeha entered the tailor shop. Sniper rifles were different from regular muskets.
Having confirmed that it was the perfect ‘modern firearm’ that even has a magazine, it was time to focus on the management.
“Boss, please make a bag of this size. Something that could carry a lot of stuff inside.”
“Aigoo, it’s long too. Are you going to carry this weapon with you?”
“Yes.”
A sniper rifle is already a precision object. It was natural to make its case hard, however, it was not easy to transport. In the case of disassembling and reassembling, it wasn’t possible in Middle Earth.
‘I don’t know if it’s possible, so I’ll have to get a soft case first.’
The rifle bag made of high-quality leather and lining was worth 40 silver, after ordering, Leeha entered a quiet alley with no people.
It was time to check the notification window that appeared after catching the brass golem.
[Achievement: One shot, one kill – Brass Golem(B)] Congratulations!! You destroyed the Brass Golem in one blow! You will be the light of the chaotic Middle Earth. We ask that you continue to work hard for humanity’s future. Before that time comes, we hope you get a little stronger…
Reward : Strength +10, Agility +4
“Ah, achievement! Right, this is what it was.” It was what appeared when Leeha caught the Brass Golem. He hadn’t caught a boss monster recently so he forgot.
As the reward given takes the characteristics of the field boss into consideration, his strength and agility increased in line with the ability of the golem.
‘But there’s no hall of fame.’ And this fact made Leeha realize that there were at least three people who could kill the golem in one shot.
‘Well, …… there’s Luger…. in addition, there are single attack-oriented jobs among rankers such as Pei Wu and Shin Nara who would have tried. Agromni Igor? Number 1 Ranker Alexander?
Considering the rankers as well as the outsiders, there were a lot of people who could pierce the Brass Golem with a single attack.
‘Good…… Good. Anyway, I also joined their ranks, right?’
I will chase them. A field boss is a field boss.
Leeha had the burning desire to see who got the hall of fame.
“Hmm?”
There was still one more unread message.
[You have succeeded in your first hunt using Black Bass]
[A quest has been created]
[Black Bass’s Seal]
Description: “This guy is alive, the more it tastes blood, the more he wakes up. On the day the right user appears, Black Bass will awaken……The legendary dwarf placed seven seals on the Black Bass. The legendary rifle is waiting for a user to wake him up.
Description: Defeat a level 150 monster from 1,000m in a single blow(0/1).
Reward: ???
‘Restoration quest!’
There was no accept button. Leeha slowly examined the contents of the quest. However, even after reading, he didn’t quite understand.
‘Awaken……. Does that mean its seal will be released?’
It’s an item that already has surprising specs, but what else does it have to show? There were seven of such seals?
Gulp.
Leeha’s throat moved. If only I could release all the seals.
