Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter] - Chapter 416
“Captain Drake says he can’t use his skills right now! Cool time!”
After hearing Jiwon Lee’s shout, another user finished checking. We cannot recreate a typhoon right away.
“hmm.”
Alexander looked around.
What if you can’t use a skill? Should we turn the bow into the typhoon again to deal with the approaching monsters?
Seeing Alexander’s head turn, Baylippus spoke first.
[You can’t do that.]
“Of course, my friend. “We have no choice but to step forward again.”
I don’t know how long the battle will last. Above all, there is no need to kill them all.
Alexander once again reminded himself that the main point of this mission was to throw out the enemy moderately, increase the speed as much as possible, and concentrate as much as he did last time.
“Boohi hee, giant squid! “There must be over 2,000 dishes that can be made with squid in our country!”
“Oh my, so Pitre, will you cook for me?”
“Stop talking nonsense and just dance, Chiyo!”
“To be rude. Come on, everyone! Let’s work hard this time too! 〈Dance of the Social Society〉”
Chiyo’s footsteps lightly, lightly touched the deck of the Marlin.
As expected, many users’ attention was focused on her dance, which was accompanied by the sound of instruments that seemed to come from somewhere.
However, the attention that was focused on Chiyo soon shifted to the buff she had given.
“uh… ? “What is this?”
“and! This is really amazing. “This is a buff, right?”
“Bo, isn’t this a normal buff? Now, did you try to lift your right arm?”
“Wow, awesome. How did you know?”
It was a buff that even New World expedition members had received for the first time in their lives.
“The oracle sees the future through a map-”
“-The dancer is like a ‘dance’… “You mean you can feel the other person’s movements?”
“Does this mean that monster attacks are also translucent and read at least one second in advance? “That’s an incredible skill.”
It seems the same, but it’s a different type of job.
This was one of the reasons why Chiyo was able to overpower other users with her quick movements before they even made a move.
Chiyo did not show it even though she heard their admiration and praise. He just smiled softly.
‘It’s a shame to reveal it already, but Shinnara’s eyes on me are not cool at all… Ugh, I can’t help it. This time, I will help with all my might.’
It was around that time that the Xin Dynasty’s axe-eye towards Chiyo was lifted.
As the name of the skill she used, “Social Dance,” no one on the New World Expedition could fail when it comes to manipulating and managing human relationships.
“We have reached a distance of 680m.”
“and… “I don’t have to look at the map anymore.”
“that… Is that it? “The waves splitting over there?”
“What- hey, it looks like some kind of robot will appear.”
Users were unable to focus on Roubini’s words. Now it has become a street where a map is no longer needed.
The monsters haven’t even come out to the surface of the sea yet.
However, thanks to its huge size and the force of approaching against the ocean current, it created a scene as if the sea surface was split in half.
There was no need to worry about their identity.
[Acceleration.]
The Marlin moved forward at speed. Drake of the New-Serpent saw this and automatically slowed down.
The two ships that were running side by side suddenly lined up in a row. And it was almost at the same time that the starboard guns of the two ships opened.
“Woohyeon poooo───“ “Woo─hyun─ po──!”
“launch!”
“Balsaaaaa—────!”
With the same but different shouts from the Kraven pirate users, the calverines fired fire.
Hehehe…
The chain of bullets fell into the empty sea surface.
The users fell silent as they saw the spray rising with a roar that felt like the sea was about to explode. Did you hit the mark? Was it right? What happened?
“It was spot on. But-”
“Oooooh! It was great! “There are quite a few Kraven pirates?!”
“Ugh! Pirates! A privateer in name and reality! If you can’t even hit a 30m squid, you’re the captain of a pirate ship—”
kkieeeeee─── eh───… !
There is still nothing at sea level.
So, ‘how’ does this sound resonate?
It’s a roar like this that breaks through the sea that hinders the transmission of sound and spreads through the air… ?
The excited users quickly fell silent.
Hook also couldn’t continue his conversation and just kept his mouth shut.
“Rubini? What you were trying to say earlier… “It was a hit, but-”
Bobae felt a chill running down her spine. Roubini’s head slowly turned towards Bobae.
“yes… It didn’t do any damage. And now—it’s coming up!”
Kiwaaaaaaa!
Pwuk, puk, puk!
Giant squid legs started sticking out of the sea.
“Ship defense formation! Run side by side again! “We must protect each other’s flanks!”
The Marlin, which had gone ahead of Burke’s call, moved again to the left of the New-Serpent.
With just one attack, Burke, a skilled sailor, could tell.
The Kraken is not an enemy that can be dealt with with artillery or anything like that.
* * *
“Big!” “It’s thick!” “It’s long!”
“More than anything… many!”
“What are you doing, everyone?! “Hurry up and fight!”
Bobae grumbled while listening to the exclamations of users jumping out like dominoes.
She pulled the bowstring without hesitation, but where should she shoot? Her hands fluttered here and there, aiming at the sea.
‘Where should I attack? Kraken is a squid-shaped monster – if you say it’s like a squid, it has ten legs!’
One squid has ten legs. There are fourteen such Kraken. The number of bridges sticking out of the sea surface has already exceeded one hundred.
“Mmm, Spread Arrow!”
If so, let’s eat them all first!
The results of Treasure’s passionate mindset were scattered across the sea.
The forked arrows were stuck in the squid’s legs, which were as thick as the masts of the Marlin or the New-Serpent.
‘Good, did it work?!’
However, the movement of the squid’s legs did not change.
How much damage was done? There was no user who could distinguish between the screams, roars, and shouts of the Krakens.
Crossing between the two ships with the sound of skills echoing here and there, Fernand shouted loudly.
“No! My legs are no use! Of course – cutting off all the legs will neutralize the attack, but it won’t be effective! Its weak point is its body. Those damn Krakens! Just keep your legs in check and dodge as much as possible! When the main body comes up, you must strike a converting blow!”
“Mr. Fernand… ?”
“I can’t help it! You have to be prepared to sacrifice yourself against them! Because he’s incredibly persistent, his squid-like nature also applies to battle- Anyway! Save your skills and just keep them in check. The most important thing is timing! And it is an evasion ability that requires you to survive until the timing! “And it must not cause any damage to the ship!”
Fernand was evil.
Users were momentarily confused as they saw him pouring out his emotions, unlike usual.
“This time…”
Fernand’s feelings about Kraken were bound to be different from other users.
The reason why the first New World expedition had to turn back was because of the Kraken.
Since it was a barely voyage while dealing with various sea creatures, there were no more ships to sacrifice.
Thanks to the system that prioritized the ship with the user Fernand, other ships eventually offered to sacrifice themselves, but Kraken did not even look at that.
Even though his fellow ships were sacrificed, the Kraken pursued Fernand’s ship relentlessly.
‘In the end, we barely escaped by throwing a few injured NPCs into the sea… I still can’t forget the humiliation of that time.’
You know it’s a game, but the tension, crisis, and camaraderie that comes with being in a situation where you can’t go any further.
Fernand had already felt it all forcibly during the first New World expedition.
By that Kraken.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkt
“one animal!!”
Fernand’s shout was as loud as the Kraken’s roar.
“W-what is it?”
“The first New World expedition was destroyed because of just one animal! This time there are fourteen! “You know what I mean, right?!”
Even with simple calculations, this means that the difficulty has increased 14 times.
Moreover, this time, it was said that there were fishmen and unidentified serpents around the Kraken.
A sense of tension ran down the users’ spines.
Although the squid legs are approaching like a haze, the destructive power of each blow is by no means small.
In addition, you should lure their attacks, avoid them, and insert skills into the main body, but avoid causing damage to the ‘ship’?
“Are you scared, Fernand?”
Flutter─── Flutter─────!
Alexander’s voice was heard from the skies above the Serpent.
“It’s not that I’m scared-”
“Don’t worry.”
The leader of the expedition and number one in the rankings knew exactly what he had to do at this moment.
Something that instills confidence.
No matter who the enemy is or how many monsters you face for the first time.
Instilling confidence that you can deal with others!
[This is my first time seeing so many Kraken. I would have liked it if the Silver guys had seen it.]
“But I guess they won’t be able to see it anymore.”
[I guess so. Leeha Leeha-eup ───────!]
“Krakens, hokeyit, down—! “Into the water!”
“Hakit- Jamhae-eng, Jam-hae-eng-!”
The fishmen who were splashing and swimming around the Krakens hurriedly jumped into the water.
[Where.]
Hua Ah Ah ─────!
However, the ancient-class gold dragon’s breath was not that easy.
Where the ultra-high heat of whitening breath, which evaporates sea water, passed, only cloudy vapor remained, rising like a haze.
Along with a few charred squid legs.
Are Kraken and Serpent raids difficult?
The person who blew away Fernand’s worries, the worries of the mermaid NPCs, and Leeha’s anxieties like dust was Alexander, and it was his dragon Bailippus.
* * *
KIEEEEEE─────────!
Before the steam could even disappear, a squid head popped out of the water.
Could this be the guy who was hit by Baylipus’s breath? It didn’t matter anymore anyway.
“〈Judgment of Justice〉”
Shuaaaaaa!
Alexander’s spear stretched like a pole, and white light began to gather at the tip. His unique skill is powerful enough to cause trauma if Faust were to see it!
It is not a skill given to a dragon knight.
It is given only to those who protect ‘justice’, slay demons and enforce goodness! Lee Ji-won also climbed onto the mast and was drooling.
“let’s go.”
Alexander grabbed Bailippus by the neck and put the spear under his arm.
The Gold Dragon, Alexander, and his spear shot towards the Kraken as if they were originally one.
Kiyi -Iyaaaaa Aak
-Kraken strikes light, but there was nothing he could do.
A burned-out bridge does not listen.
Just like an instinct, you open your mouth towards the mass of light rushing towards you.
“Shut up, squid.”
And as one, Alexander and Baylippus flew straight toward the Kraken’s maw.
It was an incredibly destructive force that entered the mouth and came out the back of the head.
It wasn’t even big enough to swallow the entire Baylippus, so the Kraken’s head was completely shattered immediately after the charge.
