YM778.TV Chapter 487
“Casting, 《Magic Chain Armor》.”
A group of party members were busy hunting.
It was one of the famous places where high-level players in Puviel hunted, a place commonly called ‘Ruins’.
There are monsters that are strong enough to require a minimum party participation level of 200, but the prevailing opinion is that the monsters’ roles are clearly differentiated like users, making them easier to hunt.
Of course, these words did not apply at all to the party members currently hunting.
“Oh, I’m going crazy. Three ‘Smashers’ have been destroyed again? “How long do you think it will take to deal with the two guardians?”
“The skill cooldown hasn’t turned on yet. Let’s start now. Anyway, let’s think about catching it quickly.”
The ranged dealer user asked impatiently, but the tank responded by leisurely raising his shield and blocking the attack.
Of course he knew it too.
That this is not a relaxed situation at all.
However, the tanker’s job is to handle the given tasks step by step. You have to make different decisions than long-distance dealers, who have to look broadly and think differently.
“After the opening of the New World, hunting grounds became completely empty. “If that crusher gets aggro, it could be difficult for us.”
“That’s right. There were a lot of people around here. I had a hard time taking care of monsters as if it was a battle of wits, but I think it was better then. “I’m not even at the level to go hunting…”
“Don’t think about the people who don’t have it! First of all, let’s start with this- Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssy! “Let’s finish!”
A monster made of bluish bones.
However, the weapons they were holding were ugly. The melee dealer struck the guardian of the ruins as if it would break his neck.
Gaaaaaaaa!
A bursting sound, as if steel colliding with iron, resounded throughout the ruins. It was a sound that could be heard from quite a distance away.
“Kkigit…Kkigit?”
“Quick…”
At the same time, the heads of the three ruin crushers holding huge great swords moved. Although it was blank and had no eyeballs, users knew where their ‘eyes’ were directed.
“Oh my.”
“The crushers aggroed! First, try it out, and if it doesn’t work, use the return scroll and get back together—”
Tukwaaaaaaaaaaaaat at first – if it doesn’t work, I’ll use the return scroll and get back together again―“
“―Wow?! What, what?!”
“What does this mean? gun?”
“There was a sound from over there-”
Tukwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
“-Kya!”
“It’s not? I think the sound came from here? “Maybe two people.”
“If it’s a gun, it must be a musket, but what kind of musket sound is that-”
Tukwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
“No! “It’s over there after all!”
“uh! “Something just hit the ground!”
Human instinct was inevitable.
Users who were unfamiliar with the roaring sound in Middle Earth, and who could not understand the identity of the sound, had no choice but to flinch and retreat in the direction opposite to the direction of the sound.
That was their problem.
Where on earth should I go? One of the places where the sound originated was clearly somewhere else.
The sound comes from a completely different direction and angle.
“First of all, avoid the aggro of the crushers…” “
…I don’t think it’s necessary.”
The party members looked at the crushers with puzzled eyes.
Now it is embarrassing to even say that they are crushers. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to call it a pile of gray skeleton bones scattered on the floor?
“Besides, why is the apostle we were trying to catch dead?”
“…I know. It seemed like something was bouncing on the floor earlier. Was it an effect produced by the apostle’s death?”
There was another thing that was disconcerting.
Even the most important monster among the monsters that the party members had aggroed to catch, the most difficult and strong wizard-type monster in ‘Ruins’, had died.
“Gwaaaaaaaa!”
“What’s this. Suddenly there are only two Guardians left? “What happened?”
“…Let’s get this over with for now. I’m sure they’ll come for rooting. “I don’t know who it is.”
The party members began to deal with the remaining monsters with a gloomy mood.
However, even after clearing out the two guardians of the ruins, there was no trace of anyone.
* * *
Of course, the person who confused even the users above level 200 was Lee Lee.
It was a time when the number of users in this level of occupation was decreasing to the point that it was safe to say for sure that there was no occupation called Musketeer, so it was natural that they were unable to properly understand gunshots.
However, the person who actually surprised them did not have a satisfied expression.
“It’s late, it’s late. “I’ve gotten used to it, but it doesn’t turn out the way I want.”
[Kyuuu, kyuuu!]
“You did well?”
[Kyuunung, kyungung.]
[Munmunmmmmmm….]
Blaugrun nodded his head loudly, and Gelapong, who had not been called, also popped out from Leeha’s chest and nodded, nod, and shook his head.
“Kick, thank you. Still, there’s still a long way to go, but… whew.”
It was not that I did not know their intentions.
There was a light laugh below, but it was still not unsatisfactory.
‘Is it also impossible to execute? But if you don’t master it to this degree, it will be more difficult to make other moves.’
Among the hunting grounds in the Old Continent of Lope, the place where Kijeong asked and settled down was the ‘Ruins’ of Puviel.
It’s already been ten days since I left City Gaza.
Lee Ha was trying to level up and diversify his hunting patterns by catching all the monsters here.
Should I say that it is fortunate that no news about Chiyo’s whereabouts came to City Gaza or other users in the meantime?
“I still raised my level by two – Oh, no. You posted three, right? Character window!”
Name: Leeha / Race: Human
Occupation: Musketeer / Level: 198 (3%)
Title: Fearless / Achievement: 124
HP: 6,440 (4,508)
MP: 1,590
Stats: Strength 551 (+466)
Agility 3,258 (+1,114) )
Intelligence 190 (+139)
Stamina 228 (+135)
Spirit 65 (+55)
Remaining stat points: 5
Even after reaching level 198, I only gained 3% experience, and I even forgot that I had leveled up.
This also meant that they were focusing on ‘new patterns’.
‘Wow, I achieved 3,200 agility and achieved more than 120 achievements. Paleo people are generally a physical group, so I guess it’s unusual that their strength has increased so much.’
Lee Ha invested all 5 stats into agility and checked his status.
Even though I received the additional agility achievement from Pyro, it was still not enough to achieve my original goal of [agility 3,333].
‘Well, it seemed easy because the numbers were already so big. What was it at the time? From 3,000 to 3,333 agility, there were a whopping 333 stat points required. Damn, I thought it was too easy. Just based on level… wow, you need level 67.’
It seemed easy to achieve because the barrel was so large, but gaining 300 additional stat points is close to ridiculous difficulty when compared to Middle Earth.
It already has monster-like stats, and thanks to that, its hunting speed is also close to that of a monster. Lee I-ha was not satisfied with the topic of wiping out experience points with one shot and one kill on a monster being hunted by a party of 5 people in the early 200s.
‘I have no idea how the battle with Chiyo will go, so I have to raise it somehow.’
Will it end with a simple sniping? There was a high probability that it was not.
It was natural for Lee Ha, who did not know which numbers were hidden, to make various preparations.
‘Or I have to complete the Black Beth quest… I think I’ll feel relieved, but this isn’t easy…’
[Black Beth’s Seal – 5]
Contents: Kill a level 250 or higher monster with one hit from a distance of over 3,500m (0 /1)
A whopping 3,500m distance.
This was only possible if all of the following were mobilized. Moreover, the target is a monster of level 250 or higher.
‘Haaa…. Life is so hard, so hard. How can I do this again-‘
[Kyu-kyu!]
Looking at Leeha who was complaining instead of complaining, Blaugrun shook his head as if to come to his senses! I pulled it.
It wasn’t just to make Lee Ha come to his senses.
“evil!? Why—ah, monster?”
[Kyuu, kyuu.]
When Leeha raised his head, Blaugrun pointed to the ruins.
An apostle of ruins wearing a hood and holding a bone staff.
It is a quasi-boss level monster that fires wide-area magic at random, making it quite an irritating monster to users. Since it is a skeleton-type monster that has the exact same body shape as a human, it is by no means large.
‘That ‘Apostle of Ruins’ was around level 215 to 220. Sigh, the field boss that appears here would meet level 250, but…’
From now on, the level isn’t the only issue.
He also knew what was popular as a field boss after hearing it from Ki-jeong.
‘It means you won’t be able to see it. The distance to that apostle now is approximately… 930- 933. 933 meters. Without a scope, it’s a difficult distance to find with such certainty. Even more so, does it make sense to hit a monster that size from a distance of 3,500 meters?’
What should I do if it pops up?
Even if a field boss that was clearly level 250 or higher appeared, it was a dream for Lee Ha. No, you might be able to catch it. However, that will not be enough to clear Black Beth’s quest.
[Kwang, keung.]
Listening to Blaugrun’s snort, Leeha adjusted the click.
“But I did grow.”
[Kyu?]
“This distance is now comfortable. “Much more than when I was in the military.”
Phew…. The wind blew gently.
Even if it is not a Harpy’s hat, it will not have much effect on the trajectory.
‘It means that the headshot itself has 100% accuracy, but if we break down the accuracy in more detail… this distance is the most certain. Just as in archery, there is a point called X-ten rather than a simple 10.’
Haaaa….
‘Exactly in the middle of the mapak-‘
Tukwaaaaaaang────────────!
By the time the gunshot rang in my ears, the apostle’s robe was already lying on the ground.
“It’s a truly equal game. “Don’t you think so?”
[Kyu?]
“Whether it was the quasi-boss of the ruins, a passing fox, or the golden eagle of Candle Castle…”
Leeha smiled, showing his teeth as he looked at Blaugrun, who was tilting his head.
And then he pulled the Black Beth’s bolt. Slam! The last shot from the magazine hit heavily.
“In the end, it’s just one hit to the head. ah! “Dragons are excluded.”
[Kyuun, kyuun, kyuu?]
Well, that’s equality? It was Blaugrun’s expression as if he was saying.
There was still a lot of work to be done for Black Beth’s quest, but at least ‘strength’ had not changed, so it was a bit of comfort.
Cooking and eating food while sitting down, feeding, and shooting monsters whenever they come into view…
Usually, hunting repeatedly in one place is called ‘camping’, but the actions below were camping in and of themselves.
Camping that perfectly embodies everything from eating, drinking, and rolling around.
It seems like they have no interest in looting from monster corpses. First, I waited for a call to come, and then waited again for about 3 days.
Good news came along with it.
Your level has risen.
“nice! Now 199-”
―Mr. Leeha? Chi, Chiyo has come to the palace now?
“―Achieved― Yes? Puviel Palace? How did Chiyo-”
[What?]
“Oh, no, I didn’t say that to Mr. Blaugrun. “It was a whisper.”
Expressing his embarrassment at Blaugrun, who tilted his head, Lee Ha hurriedly answered the whisper.
