Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

Chapter 414

An arrow was quickly fired in the direction indicated by Ki-jeong and struck the fish-man between the eyes.

Although the distance was over 200m, it was no problem for Bobae. There was not a single user on this ship who turned on the combat assistance system.

“okay! Each came out! I’ll be in charge of the stern of the New-Serpent, so don’t touch it! ?Lightning Rod?”

“What are you saying?”

Rumbling?????????!

“-Kya! What is it, lightning?!”

“Uh, uhh, d, Captain Drake! Lightning struck our mast, right? “Wasn’t our ship outside the typhoon radius?”

Lightning struck the sword raised by Lee Ji-won. It wasn’t just one shot either.

Flash, flash, flash!

Hook, who was near Drake, was worried that there might be a problem with the ship’s mast, but Drake just glanced at Jiwon Lee and ignored him.

“Okay. “Because that guy is a lightning rod.”

“lightning rod?”

That was the name of Lee Ji-won’s skill itself. Lightning rod, lightning rod.

Creating lightning with a skill requires enormous mana and casting time.

But where are they going now? Although the typhoon overhead has cleared, everything around is in the middle of a typhoon filled with dark clouds.

It’s like there’s a lot of energy related to lightning! Now Jiwon Lee was raising his black sword and gathering all the lightning around him.

“Leeha! Are you tired?! “It’s going to kill you, right!?”

“That crazy guy…”

The Luger on the ship across from me was taken aback. Lightning was still striking and constantly flickering the surroundings.

[Burke.]

[I know! I’m glad that crazy guy like that isn’t on our ship.]

The two captains exchanged opinions across the sea as they watched the energy building up in Lee Ji-won’s sword.

What will happen in the future and what should they do? The worn-out captains already knew.

“Get ready.”

“What, what-”

“Kyakyakyakyakya!” I can’t control myself! ?Room—”

[Accelerate.] [Accelerate!]

Huwaaaaaaaaaaaa

When both ships accelerated once more!

“-Exit!”

Lee Ji-won pointed his sword toward the stern of the ship and cast a skill.

* * *

[What a fun guy. Don’t you think it was a good idea to keep them alive at that time, Alexander?]

Bailippus, who was blowing his breath towards the fishmen in the sky above the Marlin, looked at Lee Ji-won with an interesting expression.

Gold Dragon was thinking about the past day when he participated in the human national competition and competed with Lee Ji-won.

At that time, Alexander tried to kill Lee Ji-won, but Baylippus stopped him.

The reason was that at least one more person’s power was needed to prevent Tiamat’s resurrection, so she should be kept alive first, and although Alexander was skeptical, he eventually agreed.

“Such an arrogant bastard agrees with us… “I had no idea I would be so active here.”

Alexander also chuckled when he remembered that time.

However, is it because he saved Lee Ji-won’s life back then that Lee Ji-won is showing off that kind of energy now? Alexander was skeptical about that.

“However, the reason he is here is not just because we saved his life.”

[Hmm?]

“Human grudges are deep. It is especially difficult for people like Lee Ji-won and Luger to agree with us. “Because they are still targeting us.”

Even after Alexander saved Lee Ji-won’s life, Lee Ji-won looked for several opportunities to assassinate Alexander and Bailippus.

Unlike Baylippus, a gold dragon, Alexander was human, so he could tell.

There are people in the world who cannot be subdued by force. Representative users with such tendencies were Luger and Jiwon Lee.

These are users who have no intention of repaying a favor because they saved their life or looked after them.

Rather, they are closer to people who have a tendency to spring out like a spring the more they try to give in.

[Then is it because of compensation?]

“Compensation… “It’s the same, but it’s different.”

There was only one reason why they were quietly cooperating here and now.

Because I received a quest? If that was the correct answer, a more fundamental answer was needed than that.

This is because there was someone who convinced me to accept this quest.

The existence of another user who not only persuaded them, but actually dragged them away by the collar.

Alexander thought that was the biggest factor that allowed them to be here.

Bailippus found the answer in Alexander’s ambiguous words.

Even who it is.

[…… I guess so. Is it because there was a connection?]

“That’s right. “Because there are people who push themselves into a corner for the sake of goodness and justice.”

[It wouldn’t have been easy without Leeha.]

“Hmm. He is fully qualified to be an assistant executive officer.”

[Leeha.]

Does this mean that the executive officer is Alexander himself and his assistant is Leeha? Bailipus laughed cheerfully as he listened to Alexander.

At that time, the thirty-seventh lightning struck Lee Ji-won’s sword, and it was right after the two captains used their acceleration skills.

This means that it was almost at the same time that Jiwon Lee opened his mouth again.

“Kyakyakyakyakya! I can’t control myself! < emission >!”

In the moment between using the acceleration skill and casting the discharge skill, three more thunderbolts fell on Lee Ji-won’s sword.

When Lee Ji-won’s black sword, which contained as many as 40 pieces of lightning energy, pointed at the stern of the New-Serpent, all users had to close their eyes.

“Search everything ????????????!”

“Wow!”

“It’s dazzling!”

“I wish I had Crowley’s sunglasses.”

Even beyond the eyelids, the white light that seemed to rip apart the pupils remained for a long time.

It was a very different feeling from simply having lightning strike in front of your eyes.

I didn’t know if it was because instead of the sound of thunder, I kept hearing small sounds like crackling, crackling, and the cries of mice.

In reality, it only lasted less than 5 seconds.

However, considering the speed of lightning, that is, ‘light’, how much energy is emitted in 5 seconds?

The lightning that was gathered together by the skill and had energy released again was enough to burn the air, evaporate the sea water, and fry all the fishmen.

“… Electric grill…”

“Hakit, I think my throat will burn if I eat that.”

Shuuuuu??????!

Sea water evaporated by tremendous energy shimmered behind the New Serpent like fog.

The number of floating fish-man corpses was innumerable.

“Let’s go, Baylipus. We are the front line.”

[I was already preparing. Hmm~!]

Hwaaaaaaaaa!

At the point when the front and rear were completely cleared, it was nearly impossible for fishmen to come up to the side.

This is because the two ships were traveling side by side.

As all users of the Marlin poured out their skills on the left and all users of the New-Serpent poured out their skills on the right, the fishmen’s movements began to gradually slow down.

“Whoa, he’s not coming! “They don’t come any closer!”

“Ouch! really?! “Is it over now?”

“Well, I don’t know about that, but I don’t think he’s coming at least not now. Perhaps he was scared after experiencing Lee Ji-won’s lightning rod-discharge combo and Alexander’s breath… ?”

Fernand took out a telescope and looked at them, then tilted his head.

I don’t know the exact reason, but it was fortunate that I got some time to rest.

“Aaaah! Why aren’t you coming! Me too, I want to show you too! “I still have a lot of skills that are just as good as Lee Ji-won’s!”

“I will deal with you, Pyro.”

“Oh, Luger! It was great! Shall we give it a try?”

A descendant of the pyrotechnician hero, flames rose from both hands of Pyro.

This is not Luger who will watch that and sit still.

If there’s one thing that’s disappointing about Luger, it’s that there are a ton of people other than himself who would ‘watch that and just sit still’.

“Hey, hey! If you have the energy, come and help me fix something! “That massive lightning even damaged the tail of our ship!”

“Get the hammer! wood! “Take whatever scraps of wood you have left!”

As soon as the battle was over, crackling sounds began to sound everywhere.

Even in that atmosphere, Pyro and Luger were not unable to understand the atmosphere enough to fight each other.

No, there was a more practical reason.

“If you two had fought now, you would have had a chance to fight everyone here, but it would be a shame, Luger.”

In this atmosphere, if they had decided to play 1:1, all the other users would have rushed in and overpowered the two.

“It’s noisy, Kid.”

Kid, who had already come across the Marlin, was next to Luger and smiled.

Luger stood next to him while saying, “Fit.”

And then, without any hesitation, I opened the Three Musketeers’ friend window and checked the location of the other Three Musketeers who were not there.

[Sea of Dawn-Sea Area of Dragon Palace-Water Depth 47m]

“Hmm…”

“The depth of the water is 47m… It moves around just fine without an air tank. Damn you.”

“Didn’t you say you had an achievement?”

“That’s why I call him a damn guy. Just to myself…”

Kid glanced at the grumbling Luger and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Because he knew very well what was causing the current dissatisfaction.

“Are you thinking that if you had achieved something, you would have gone with me?”

Kid realized that Luger’s true intention was to want to be of help to Leeha.

“W-what kind of bullshit? They say I’ll just eat up my stats and die from my stomach exploding. joy.”

Luger overreacted and left, but that actually gave Kid more confidence.

He also had the same feelings.

‘It’s a shame.’

After the first day of Lee Ji-won’s rampage after entering the waters of Yonggung, it took more than a week for the fishmen to appear again.

Meanwhile, Leeha, Sibrim, and Andresson were also steadily gaining speed.

* * *

“Whoo, whoo.”

“Prrrrrrrrrrr!”

“There is no need to rest. “Because I want to get to the Dragon Palace as soon as possible.”

“Prrrrrrrrrrrrrp …”

No matter how much water there is in the water, the fish also needs to rest.

Moreover, even a mermaid would have to expend a lot of stamina to swim while holding Leeha instead of being alone(?).

“I’m sorry, but I don’t understand what you’re saying right now.”

“I understand! “Even if I push myself, it’s okay because I have a set schedule anyway, right?”

“Crock, crock.”

“… is it. I understand. “Then let’s rest for a while near the coral reef over there.”

Sibrim tried to pretend not to understand what was said, but Anderson made it impossible for him to do so.

Does being desperate work? Or maybe Anderson himself was just too tired.

‘You have to increase your speed but manage your stamina.’

In any case, the meaning below was the same as Anderson interpreted it.

Like Sibreim, Leeha also wanted to move quickly, but now was not the time.

In some ways, the most difficult thing about ‘marching’ is the distribution of physical strength. If you do not rest at the right time, you may collapse at once due to accumulated fatigue.

‘The first march lasts ten days. If you think of it as a 10-day march without sleep, it’s completely… ‘It wouldn’t be strange if I died on earth.’

It was possible because they were mermaids, a race with physical strength superior to that of humans, but on the 7th day after entering the waters of the Dragon Palace, Sibrim and Anderson’s physical strength was noticeably reduced.
