Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

“If you go there, the speed of the ship will decrease drastically and you will even be interrupted by a typhoon! You wouldn’t want to create a situation where fishmen would swarm over you, right? Turn the key! Hey, Starboard! Starboard!”

Hook shouted at Hyein and quickly turned the key.

This was another problem that arose when the fishmen appeared.

The original goal was to maneuver around the outskirts of the immovable island, the ‘buoy’. The closer the distance to teleportation, the higher the chance of success.

It was a way to make the mass teleport, which carries all the workers and materials for the construction of the Mana Relay Tower, a little safer…

Normally, even if the speed had decreased slightly, the vehicle would have been close enough to ensure a safe distance. But now it was an emergency, so there was no time for that.

“Anyway, get ready! 3 minutes later! “In three minutes you will probably be the closest to that island!”

“Just a little bit, at the most, just 10 minutes further apart-”

“If we all want to die together, we can add even more!”

Hook screamed.

As Hyein, she was also full of dissatisfaction, but there was nothing she could do anymore. This is because Hye-in knows that Hook is doing his best.

Now I had to find a landing spot.

‘It’s an artificially created island. There is no such thing as a white sand beach. There needs to be an open area to safely teleport.’

It is not connected to the land under the sea, but is literally an island floating on the water.

Since it was not created naturally, there is no such thing as a white sand beach due to its structure.

‘With that theme, the shape of the island is like a regular volcanic island with a raised center… There seem to be a lot of trees, and the rain and wind near the island block the view too much.’

It is so large that the island covers a significant portion of the field of view. It would be perfect to build a mana relay tower on the towering artificial terrain in the center.

But how to get there? The problem for Hyein and Team B was that there was no suitable place to teleport.

‘It’s not Blink, it’s an adventure like this with mass teleportation – there’s nothing I can do about it. Still, you have to do it. In the worst case scenario, I could die… If even the worker NPCs survive, the mana relay tower will be built.’

Of course, those NPCs cannot return to the ship alive. If there is no helper to teleport them, they will wither and die on the island.

However, the first goal of the quest is achieved.

Hyein prepared for that level of situation and gave instructions to the worker NPCs.

Even if you can’t see yourself, go up to the top of the island and build a mana relay tower.

The giant NPCs nodded with determination.

“We are here, we are here! Ready ──────!”

Hearing Hook’s shout, Hyein started casting. I hope everyone is safe.

“Jigmmmm!”

“Brother Hyein, fighting!”

“〈Mass Teleport〉!”

Then, he powerfully cast a skill and slammed his staff into the magic circle. A light purple brilliance disappeared from the New-Serpent as if shooting into the air.

Team B’s time-limited 100-hour operation has just begun on the 20th day of entering the waters of the Dragon Palace.

* * *

‘That’s it! went! I was worried because no one was whispering!’

Leeha understood that situation based on the location of his friend Chang. If there is no answer to the whisper, it means that the battle is still underway.

Therefore, the possibility that Hyein’s B team might not move properly was also considered.

‘There will be no problem for the next 100 hours, Hyein.’

More than anything, the proof was that his name appeared in the friends window. This means that the worst case scenario of the caster dying due to the instability of mass teleportation has been avoided.

The C team below will also arrive near Yonggung in a day and a half, log out there for a day and then move on.

In other words, the 23rd day of entering the sea area of the Dragon Palace is about to begin, and by then, the construction of Hyein’s Mana Relay Tower will already be over 50% complete.

‘Personality is still a question mark, but at least in terms of ‘skill’, Hyein is flawless. Now all I have to do is do well, just me.’

Leeha puffed out an air bubble and tapped Siburim’s arm. The mermaids, who recognized the intention to speed up a little more, moved their tail fins more vigorously.

Since I was estimating the user’s location and situation through the friends window, I naturally couldn’t find out the details.

“Leeha… Leeha… Is everyone okay?! “Start with inspection of personnel and materials!”

The amount of mana consumed changes depending on the mass being moved through space.

Hyein, who poured almost all of her mana into a single move, even felt her blood pressure drop for a moment.

“The materials are okay. The materials are okay.”

“How many people?”

“that is… excuse me…”

“ah…”

Hyein let out a soft moan.

Like creatures growing parasitic on trees, the bodies of the 11 giants were mixed with the trees and turned gray.

The good news is that all of the Mana Relay Tower construction materials were moved safely. And the leader of Team B was Hyein.

“Let’s move faster! Grab all the materials and go up the mountain! The goal is the top of the mountain! The mana relay tower will be built at the top of the mountain!”

Hyein immediately came to her senses and began giving orders to the workers.

When all 30 workers were fully operational, the construction time for the Mana Relay Tower was 96 hours, but 11 of them were lost.

When simply calculating the loss of 11 manpower and adding it to the construction time, the estimated completion time is approximately 131 hours later.

In fact, it was like exceeding the time limit.

‘But I can’t give up. ‘My situation is much better than that of someone who jumped into the sea without a weapon.’

Hyein gritted her teeth as she thought of someone who might be in a more difficult situation than herself.

In many ways, Leeha had an influence on the New World expedition.

* * *

Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-!

“Ugh… “I’m not tired at all.”

Leeha managed to get up by turning off the alarm. He fell asleep after logging out, but he was only given five hours of sleep, and that was all over now.

‘It might be better to play at KCTC one more time. It seems more difficult than waiting for battle.’

At least the load on the brain will be greater than that. It would be like the brain had been working for 10 days without a break.

But there was no time to express regret.

Finally, I checked the appearance of the Dragon Palace and logged out. Now you will have to start your operation from the moment you log in.

‘It’s only the 23rd since we entered the waters of the Dragon Palace. If you think that Hyein and I have similar time limits, the time limit given to me is within 28 hours. No, if you want to catch it more safely, it might be within 12 hours.’

At least, Hyein talked with Bailippus about mana linking and decided on a time limit, but she only has the chain teleport skill between the three musketeers, not knowing how far it will work.

‘The connection between the highest level Sage and the ancient gold dragon… I wonder if the Three Musketeers’ chain teleport can actually achieve that level of power… No, let’s not think about it and finish it quickly. ‘You have to log in at a time like this and finish at least an hour early.’

Leeha returned to the world of Middle Earth with a feeling of sudden descent that he could not get used to no matter how many times he accessed it.

“You’re here.”

“Leeha!”

[Kkyun! Kkkkkkkk!]

Sibrim, Anderson, and Blaugrun welcomed the following. Having already figured out the fishmen’s warning points, they were able to find a sufficient resting place even with the Dragon Palace in front of them.

―Any special details?

“No.”

―He may have felt something was wrong since the three scouts did not return… This probably means that that level of system has not been established yet. It’s good news for us.

Born, died, born, died. After the New World expedition members entered the waters of the Dragon Palace, the life cycle of the fish people became excessively short and fast, so there was no way they could be completely controlled.

“exactly. The border pattern is also the same as he said.”

“So that’s the problem… I was able to get this far without getting caught, but now… Leeha.”

Anderson sighed.

While Leeha went to sleep after logging out, Sibrim and Anderson looked around while sleeping and waking up repeatedly.

However, the warning pattern was no different from what I heard from Fishman last time.

This meant that the entrance down to the septic tank was completely blocked by fishmen without even a single minute of rain.

-Hmm… Sigh, if black bass are eaten in times like this… I should be able to finish it off with a sniper and sneak in safely.

The following was disappointing. The frustration of not being able to use my skills when I needed them most was overwhelming.

‘Luckily, the septic tank and Yonggung are quite far away. They also said that you had to go into something like a cave entrance and continue down to the depths of the sea floor.’

Once you enter the septic tank entrance, fishmen will not be able to notice you. But it can’t be done.

It will definitely take.

‘How can I get through this? “What should I do?”

“Leeha, I remember the story you told me.”

“Kkorok?”

It was at that time that Shivrim said something unexpected to Leeha, who was looking around.

“You didn’t say that you personally acknowledged it and received the clothes as a token.”

“Korororok… Negative pole?”

that is… why? The following looked at Sibreem’s expression. During the long journey to get here, Leeha would tell her own story or listen to the stories of mermaids.

It wasn’t just that I was bored.

This was to build more trust between each other, and at the same time, I was wondering if there would be any other achievements, quests, or any hints on the way to the new continent.

However, from the mermaid NPC’s perspective, some of the stories seem to have been very touching. In short, the fact that Drake acknowledged the following.

“It was like that on the boat too. Moreover, you didn’t say that it was thanks to Lord Leeha’s younger brother on the ship that you came back as a mermaid.”

Sibrim was smiling warmly as if he was telling a story from the past. It was the exact opposite of Anderson, who was next to him, looking anxious.

[Kyuuuu…]

Blaugrun also made a crying sound as if he was sighing.

At that moment, something passed through Leeha’s mind.

―Are you trying to become bait yourself?

“Huh? Leeha, as expected. You can’t get the master’s approval just by being faithful. This is because that ability is backed up. “I saw it very well.”

Sibrim placed the bone weapon against his tail fin. There, he cut off the translucent blue string that extended to Leeha’s waist.

“Please. “On behalf of all mermaids, I ask you once again, Leeha.”

The large mermaid, Sibreem, lowered her head as if she was bowing to Leeha.

Why did you keep saying that you believed?

‘The Ring of Water has been lifted.’

Because the forced movement skill has ended.

This was because there was no way to persuade Leeha other than saying that he believed.

Below, I opened the skill window and looked at Chain Teleport: The Three Musketeers. Kid logs out, Luger is online. It is also activated.

‘What if I use the skill right now? It will still work 100%. If you use the < Partner-Summon > skill there, you can safely summon Blaugrun to the ship.’

[Septic tank cleaning] When failed: Achievement –

Intimacy with Howard Drake, the

one who exterminated the mermaids -100%

The penalty for failing the mermaid quest may be a bit painful, but isn’t life more important?

Drake even became a mermaid.

According to his last words to the members of the New World expedition, there was a high possibility that he would never return to the Kingdom of Kraven. Even if intimacy drops to -100%, it’s okay as long as there’s no conflict.

In other words, using skills to return to the ship is a reasonable, safe, and even efficient choice!
