Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter] - Chapter 442
While Lee and Lee were active in the C Team and saved a lot of ammunition, Kidd was constantly shooting in the A Team, so he was now in a situation where he had a lot of ammunition to spare.
“under! No bullets? “If we had fought to the death over Leeha, we could have killed you too.”
“Heh, do you think I would participate in such a fight?”
“What will I do if I don’t participate? “Don’t you remember the atmosphere when you left the waters of the Dragon Palace?”
Kid nodded at Luger’s words. It is true that it was somewhat serious. He also tried to create factions among users for his own benefit and growth.
In addition to blindly pestering, there were also those who subtly tried to extract information through friendship.
“I remember what the sea god said to Leeha. 『Bluebeard is a person who spreads pollution and corruption, and everything in his path will become corrupt』 At that time, everyone thought that Le had a skill. Obscene jealousy, envy, and greed… Add to that Ram Hwajeong’s threats, and this is it.”
Kidd recalled the situation at the time in this way.
In some ways, Lee Ha’s ‘good(?) Gapjil’ would also have been a wise choice to escape Middle Earth’s clever trap.
Even as Kid’s thoughts progressed to that point, Luger said nothing. Kid looked at him as he suddenly closed his mouth considering they had been talking together just a moment ago, but Luger didn’t show any reaction.
“Luger?”
“hmm? Oh, no. It is nothing. Hi, I was thinking about whether or not he would spit out achievement information.”
Luger hurriedly opened his mouth. Kid just tilted his head for a moment. Luger’s expression was somewhat dark.

After the logout rotation went smoothly and I recovered enough stamina, I finished logging back in. The voyage was now on its 114th day and was nearing its end.
“Kraben users are truly amazing. “How can I level up just by traveling around on a boat?”
“It’s nothing special. They just take boats a lot and often. They don’t travel around for 100 days on a single boat like we do.”
Kijeong responded to the complaints below. Thanks to Lee Ha’s abuse of power to stock up on food, there was enough food left to last for another 15 days.
Considering that the voyage would end in about a week or so, there was already plenty of time to spare, so the tension below naturally increased.
“Haa… Well, that’s true too. On the contrary, I’m bored because there’s nothing going on. I would rather like it to be as dynamic as the sea area of the Dragon Palace. “If it’s this peaceful, it doesn’t even feel like a game.”
“You’ve been through so much trouble so far. “Get some rest.”
“Resting doesn’t mean resting, Kijeong… These days, Nara has been feeling chilly and I don’t know why. “What did Bobae say?”
“I don’t know. He didn’t say much to me either. “Couldn’t Mrs. Nara have said anything to Bobae?”
Nevertheless, the reason Lee Ha was not at peace was because of the Xin Dynasty. Ki Ki couldn’t help with that either.
Lee Ha sighed again and asked other users around him. Since Jingeonggeong, Biyemi, and Bobae were logging out in rotation, there were not many users around Lee Ha and Kijeong.
The person Leeha asked questions about was Roubini.
“Okay, I see. What do you think, Roubini?”
“Well, what do I know?”
“He is an oracle, someone who predicts the future. Hehe, this person is so crazy! If you read it, I will give you a lot of money. how is it?”
“Other than using skills, I just analyze the information given. “You can read people’s minds…”
Rubini waved his hand, embarrassed by Lee Ha’s joke.
Lee Ha laughed mischievously as he watched Rubini look embarrassed. It was also the reason why Lee Ha could not understand why Xin Nara treated him so coldly.
Not only did he have no idea what Roubini was thinking, but he himself was not particularly interested in Roubini.
When about half a day had passed on the 114th day of such peaceful and leisurely navigation, something caught the reconnaissance of summoner Elmi aboard the Marlin. The details of the reconnaissance were immediately reported to Alexander and Fernand.
Kwaaaaang───! The cabin door opened violently and Fernand came out.
“It doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense.”
“What’s wrong, Monsieur Fernand? sea water?”
The attention of surrounding users was focused on him. Fernand’s expression was not good.
“Oh, no. It’s not sea water—no, it might have been better if it was sea water…”
“What’s wrong with that?”
“There are things that shouldn’t exist! A ship! “There is a ship about 6km ahead!”
Ship!
All users were shocked. It was just as Fernand had shouted. I would have been less surprised if there had been sea water.
***
“Hi ha! What do you see?!”
Even if they wanted to panic, the experienced expedition members navigating the New Continent were not allowed to panic. Even if you are embarrassed, the rule is to know your enemy first and then panic!
All users immediately finished preparing for battle, and Leeha, who had the best eyesight, climbed up to the New-Serpent’s watchtower and looked ahead.
On a day like this where the waves were calm and the weather was clear, it was impossible for a ship floating on the water to avoid Leeha’s eyes.
At the end of my vision, I vaguely saw something.
“…yes. There’s definitely something there. I can’t immediately diagnose that as a ‘ship’, but… there’s something there. “If the distance is a little more than 6 km… or if the distance is accurate, the ship will be small.”
However, accurate confirmation was not easy.
Even if I alternated between the eagle’s eye and the black bass scope and used the maximum possible magnification, the distance to the target was too far.
“What do you see from here?”
“I don’t even know the direction
in the first place…” “I guess it’s a [hit] in the end.”
The users who were gathered around the player were amazed by the following’s observation skills. Even if they climb up the mast, they won’t see anything.
On the contrary, in clear weather at sea, sunlight reflects on the sea water and sometimes interferes with visibility, so users who were not used to scouting were anxious to block light from piercing their eyes from above and below.
‘It’s already a distance beyond common sense, so it’s natural… but it’s far. Even the smallest ship would be much larger than an ordinary living creature, so does it look this small from 6km away?’
It was an observation that even Luger was upset about, but Lee Ha did not like it. It was barely visible, but that was all.
What if you need to snipe from this distance? What if that day comes someday?
‘For example, what if a quest is created that requires you to shoot the captain or helmsman on a ship like that?’
gulp. Lee Ha swallowed his saliva. I shook my head without realizing it.
‘It’s impossible. I can’t pinpoint the target. Damn… am I supposed to have a stronger scope than this? Or skill? Eagle’s Eye is still at expert level 8. If you raise just two more, you will be at master level, but still….’
It won’t be enough to cover 6km.
For general sniping or hunting, there would be no need to talk about sniping at such ridiculous distances.
However, Leeha’s first concern was that there was a quest for Black Beth. There is no telling how far the devilish quest will extend the distance.
And in the second case, it was also an enemy that had not yet been encountered.
‘《Magic Bullet》…. The records of the Royal Record Office clearly said that the distance was 10km.’
Even 6km seems breathtaking. It’s so close that I can’t even snipe. But the enemy is 10km away!
Lee Ha was able to readily admit that it was impossible with his current abilities.
‘It is said that when all the Demon King’s army crosses the Sea of Dawn, there is also a magic gunner in it. What if the remaining forces of the Demon King’s army arrived in the New World? What if they’re hiding here and there?’
The most reasonable conclusion is that the current location of the magic bullet gunner is the New World.
This means that an enemy that cannot be sniped from 6 km can fight against an enemy that can successfully sniper with a headshot from 10 km.
Other users were rumbling about the identity of the ship, but Lee Ha couldn’t really focus on the story.
“It’s definitely not the user. Maybe an NPC? “Some kind of human race NPC in the New Continent?”
“We can’t give up the possibility of monsters.”
“monster? Monsters are tools, and when you use them, they are nothing more than crude weapons. These guys can’t even make iron items on their own. “Isn’t it their plan to rob nearby human villages to procure money?”
“It’s about monsters from the Old Continent. And since we just don’t have the technology to make iron, wouldn’t we be able to make ships? “That’s a tree.”
“Well, that’s what I’m saying! Umm – I mean there is no technology. handicraft? Anyway, I’m saying there aren’t people who make ships out of wood and go out to sea.”
“I agree with that. If it were a monster from Middle Earth, it would have been designed as a creature adapted to the sea. Giant moray eels, ruffed lizards… there were a lot of sea creatures, right? “I don’t think there’s any reason to create a monster that goes out to sea on a ship with that type of monster.”
“You don’t know that! If you go far north from the Kraven Sea area, you will find something called ‘Shipwreck Island’. It is a place where the remains of shipwrecked ships have gathered to form an island, and ghost ships are said to appear there. “How cold I felt while passing through there with a privateer fleet…”
The opinions of the expedition members were divided.
We made guesses based on information inside Middle Earth and approached it from the macro framework of a virtual reality game, but no conclusion could be drawn right away.
In a situation where there was no information, it was a natural discussion.
“That’s not important. What we need to know now is to determine whether they are allies or enemies. If it’s an ally, it doesn’t matter if it takes the form of a monster, and if it’s an enemy, it doesn’t matter if it takes the form of a human.”
It was Alexander who organized the situation. The objective of the New World Expedition is to arrive safely in the New World.
This means that whatever is on the ship you see right in front of you is not important.
Other users had no choice but to agree with that statement. And I knew that there was only one way to check it.
This is because Lee Ha was already feeling the eyes focused on him.
“I guess I have no choice but to see it in person. “We will only be able to do anything if we conduct detailed reconnaissance.”
Normally, users like Pitre, who are good at hiding and going secretly, would have to go, but it’s still completely empty. It’s not easy to move.
However, it was not possible to go by slow boat or large ship.
In the end, an individual who can move smoothly in the water, is skilled in reconnaissance, and is not greatly disturbed by ‘underwater’ should go.
The only suitable candidates were:
“Can you do it?”
“If you use Mr. Bailipus’ invisibility magic and Mr. Hyein’s space movement first. Let’s try it. Mr. Blaugrun, please wait here.”
[Kyu-kyu!]
Above all, Lee Ha was confident in himself. Alexander nodded as he listened to the answers below.
About 5 minutes after the water-proofing magic and the defense-enhancing buffs of Saint Raphaela and the Taoist brothers were fully applied, a light purple light sparkled on the deck of the New-Serpent.
