Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

Chapter 185

However, the last remaining ratman tried to swing its sharp claws, but Leeha swung his bayonet. The heavy butt of the [Black Bass: SASR] smashed the slowed ratman’s skull.

The crunching sensation on his hand made Leeha want to cry.

“Even when I have become the Next Generation of the Three Musketeers, I’m still doing the same thing as when I was level 1!” Two ratmen were cleaned up in an instant, and the remaining one was bludgeoned to death with the Black Bass’s butt. He felt even more ashamed when he thought about why a level 146 user like him, had to fight like this.

“Cough. Hmm, but it’s definitely a high-end rifle, using it as a bat feels good in the hands. Isn’t it good for mincing meat? I’m going to try some rat meat.”

Puk, puk, After finishing off the ratmen, Leeha uttered unfamiliar sounds.

Unlike NPCs, it was relatively easy for users to cross borders. If a user belongs to an organization run by a country, they have restrictions on entering hostile countries.

In Middle Earth, Shazrasian Federation and Fibiel Kingdom were not enemies.

“It’s cold.”

After crossing the border and walking to the first town, Leeha felt that the landscape had changed.

Most of the greenery had long disappeared. There were few conifers, but the surrounding area was mostly barren, so the wind felt even stronger.

‘The wind is strong, and the air is cold. Truly Middle Earth.’ Leeha still wore the Brown Bear coat. Now, it was so worn out that even the Tailor in the capital said that it could no longer be repaired, and that the item could disappear anytime.

‘I wore it for a long time.’

He was level 10 when he first got it. He still wore the item he got on the way to the capital. It was unimaginable for other users.

It was because the defense was meaningless for a job that puts everything into a single attack.

When Leeha entered the town, Leeha was surprised by the number of giants in the Shazrasian Federation.

‘The NPCs are giants as well? Well, it’s said that if they were of giant race, there was a high chance of starting in the Shazrasian Federation. Besides, blonde hair and white skin……. I can roughly guess which country they are from.’

As a town with supply shortage, Leeha was once again surprised to see that all the items were expensive. He was able to get a map of Shazrasian Federation.

It cost a lot of money which he would not have thought about spending in the past, but now, he could afford to spend gold lightly.

“Well, which city is the closest to the Adamantine Mountain?”

Leeha opened his map.

Perhaps because it was a country with many giants, almost everything was huge. At first, it seemed that the standard size was set for Giants.

‘What kind of map uses this kind of paper ? How could you see something so big? No, if it is this big, do they give potions out at a bigger size?’

If so, it would be more expensive.

Leeha suddenly understood why Kidd was in the Shazrasian Federation. Kidd said he came here to sleep.

‘If this is the standard size tailored for giants…then what about the beds at inns? Would a giant’s bed be big enough for Kidd to roll around for a long time? Did he come all the way here just for that?

“Yes. Well, what’s the problem with that? He’d say shamelessly, that man.”

It was like Kidd’s voice was somehow heard in Leeha’s head. After checking the map on how to reach his destination, Leeha walked towards the warp gate.

“Where do you want to go?”

“Vnudev City?for one person.” The westmost city of Shazrasian Federation, closest to the Adamantine Mountains.

Just as users gather in Berfort to hunt in the Sentinel Mountains in the Fibiel Kingdom,it was the place where giants of the Shazrasian Federation gathered for hunting.

When Leeha felt his body float, he had already arrived in Vnudev.

“Waaah……. Let’s go to Berfort. What person……”

Users gathered near the warp gate. In particular, there were so many giants that it made the space seem cramped.

“Looking for a 2-person party to hunt yetis! Level 150! Dealer-Tanks only!”

“Looking for a healer for Salea cave~ We already have 4 people! Healer-nim, please come here!”

“We’re looking for a human user to go to the snow rabbit area~! If you’re going to Adamantine, let’s go together~. “

The giants’ roaring voices resounded, but in the midst of that, a cry dug into Leeha’s ears.

‘Oh, Adamantine Mountain? I’m sure people are going there.’

Leeha searched for the source of the sound. But compared to the other giants, the voice was small.

In addition, although most of the giants wore their muscles like heavy armor, the owner of the shout was muttering shyly, so it took quite a while to find it.

‘That person- huh?’

Leeha managed to find the giant shouting “Snow Mountain Rabbit”. His voice and back seemed somehow familiar.

“Surely… Excuse me?”

Leeha approached him and patted him on the back.

“Snow Mountain- Yes? Waah?!”

Huik, the giant, looked back. How could he forget that somewhat foolish face?

“Kuwaak! Jin Gonggong-nim?”

“Leeha-nim? Ha Leeha-nim?”

The giant Jin Gonggong looked down at Leeha.

Giant Druid Jin Gonggong. He was one of the members who cleared the novice village graduation quest, Golden Eagle, with Leeha, and he was also an unfortunate(?) user whose job was forced onto him, just like Leeha.

Leeha and Jin Gonggong scanned each other instantly.

“Ha Leeha-nim, what are you doing here?”

“I had to stop by this place……. How about you, Jin Gonggong-nim? Since when have you been here?”

Both of them started in the Fibiel Kingdom. They didn’t expect to see each other at the westernmost town of the Shazrasian Federation.

And come to think of it, they didn’t really pay much attention to each other’s location, even though they were added as friends. It was unavoidable, because both of them were busy with their own lives.

“Hey, I go wherever there is an animal. Hehe.”

“Animal…… I see. Well, you’re a druid.”

It was a very understandable answer. Most importantly, Leeha was pleased with this innocent giant. All the more because of the cry made by Jin Gonggong.

“Ah! Are you going to the Adamantine Mountain?”

“Me? No, I will only go to the snow rabbit area. Beyond that lies the Adamantine Mountain. So I was wondering if There would be someone who could go with me…. I don’t think there is anyone today either.”

Jin Gonggong let out a deep sigh. Leeha didn’t know what Jin Gonggong would do in the snow rabbit area, but he felt good that he had a reason to go with him.

“Come with me!”

“What? Ha Leeha-nim why are you going to the snow rabbit-”

“No, I have to go to the Adamantine Mountain.”

“Really?! Then, can you help me in the snow rabbit area? If you help me, I will take you to the Adamantine Mountain! There are a lot of monsters on the way, so it will be difficult to go alone!”

“Haha, good. I don’t know how I could be of help, but it should be fun.”

Leeha felt Jin Gonggong’s urgency as cute as Oh Kwon-ji. There were a lot of monsters on the way to Adamantine Mountain…… so, is he planning to help me because it’s dangerous?

Will he be able to help Leeha now?

‘Because he doesn’t know my level and ability. Although I cannot shoot the [Black Bass: SASR], it can still be used as a regular musket, and if I’m in a hurry, I can also use the Hummingbird.’

Obviously, Jin Gonggong’s items had also changed.

It was not a common robe worn by everyone, but a robe that Druids, priests of the forest, and friends of animals would wear and a pattern that was engraved all over his body like a tattoo…. He looked more like a druid than before.

‘Still, he’s probably not higher-leveled than me. I’m not sure about Biyemi though.’

The same went for stats and items. It would not be higher than Leeha.

Even so, the innocent giant claimed that he would help Leeha get to the Adamantine Mountains.

“Then, shall we go?”

“Should we make a party? Hmm, the experience will probably-”

“It’s okay. I’m not going hunting.”

Jin Gonggong smiled brightly and asked Leeha for a party. Not hunting? So why is he asking for help? While Leeha tilted his head, Jin Gonggong created the party.

“Ah! You don’t have to buy gunpowder? I remember you said it was very expensive before……”

“Uh, it’s been a long time since we have hunted together. There’s no such concerns now.”

“Hehe, that’s good. Let’s go then!”

While Jin Gonggong and Leeha were navigating through the crowd, a person was looking at them, to be precise, it was a giant.

“……Silver Musket. Fur coat. Hunting cap. He looks like Ha Leeha. He’s moving with a giant, who’s supposed to be a healer. He also has a black weapon that looks like a musket, so please check it out.”

A man wearing a hoodie and a robe moved quietly.

The Shazrasian Federation is the land of giants,.and even the most famous giants belonged to this country.

“I also enjoyed watching the video.”

“What?”

“I am Korean. I was so proud when there were a lot of posts about Ha Leeha-nim in the community.”

“Ah…… i-is that so?”

“The Rising Sun videos were great, but I can’t believe you have a connection with Hwahong and Byeolcho. I thought I was going to die when they said that Ha Leeha-nim’s videos were edited.”

Jin Gonggong made a gesture of tapping the keyboard in the air.

“You bastards, you know, I used to party with Ha Leeha a long time ago. He’s a great guy! You’re saying that they’re edited!’ like this-”

“Cough, you’re still the same.”

“What?”

“No, nothing.”

In reality, he was naive, but Jin Gonggong’s personality became rough when he held a keyboard. Jin Gonggong looked at Leeha and asked carefully.

“But you have one more gun?”

“Ah, yes. This is why I’m going to the Adamantine Mountains.”

“Awesome. I want to use a weapon like that too.”

“By the way, where is Jin Gonggong-nim’s friend?”

“Friend?”

When Jin Gonggong tilted his head,

Leeha stabbed the air with his finger.

“Dance Dance Crow. You dance like this when you summon him.”

“It’s name is not Dance Dance Crow! Well…… your actions are similar, but if I summon it in the town, the users will be terrified, so it is sealed now.”

“Terrified? Does it attack people?”

“No……. Ah, Ha Leeha-nim doesn’t know.”

“What?”

“Hehe, I’m level 89. Did you think it’s still the same crow from the past? He grew up quite a bit too.”

Jin Gonggong smiled shyly. Hearing his answer, Leeha was slightly surprised.

‘He grew faster than I thought.. Thinking about the time I partied with Biyemi and Jin Gonggong, players who reach the late 60s have a decent growth rate.’ Leeha, with overwhelming attack power and explosives, grew at a speed that one could never imagine. In addition, he completed a lot of quests and had a guild battle with Rising Sun.

And what about Biyemi? A lizardia, whose identity was unknown, was also out of the question. He probably already reached a level similar to Leeha if not higher.

If one looked at Jin Gonggong, a normal user, he should still be in his late 60s or early 70s…….

‘As expected, he has good gaming sense.’

Jin Gonggong seemed to understand Leeha’s smile.
