Matans Shooter 572

Thud!

A single bat that had been flying towards him plummeted to the ground. Just from the dull thud it made upon crashing, one could estimate its monstrous size. However, Leeha was far from satisfied.

A mere one bat had fallen.

Naturally, it was not enough.

Why- why only one- ah, ah! Leeha couldnt contain his shock at the sight of his musket-pistol, from which a thick white smoke was billowing.

The reason Multi-Warhead Shot didnt function was clear.

He had no Multi-Warhead Shot skill at present.

It was merely an optional skill attached to Black Bass. Without Black Bass, he couldnt use this skill with any other firearm.

Screeeeeee!

Damn it what is going on-! Caught off guard by a single shot from the musket hummingbird pistol, the bats swooped down aggressively. Instantly, Leeha fired a grapeshot from his needle gun pistol. Accompanied by reverberations within the cave, the grapeshot formed a barrage.

Thud! Screech!

Just two of them?!

The grapeshot from the needle gun pistol had only managed to kill two bats. Some bats had merely grazed by a second or third shot and were now circling erratically but they were far from dead.

If they were ordinary, small bats, certainly more than a dozen would have perished. However, what Leeha was dealing with were not ordinary bats.

Freaking hell the New Continent is known for its scale! But if the bats are bigger than a retriever

A barrage of fireballs spewed from the mouths of bats the size of large dogs with wings.

There were over 50 bats, illuminating the entire cave with the 50 fireballs fired from their mouths.

Theyre even breathing fire this bloody New Continent playing fire games from the cradle. Force Barrier! Astounded, Leeha managed to release a jade barrier.

But this wasnt the Old Continent. Given the monster level distribution in the New Continent, the Force Barrier couldnt possibly handle fifty incoming fireballs.

Besides, they move too fast. With my skillshunting with two pistols is challenging

He needed to make a decision.

What would be the optimal strategy to neutralize the incoming fireballs while exterminating the bats?

Boom! Boom, Boom!

Jellypong?!

As if understanding his dilemma, an arm of Jellypong emerged from his chest.

When their eyes met, it was the start of show time.

Alright, once the Force Barrier breaks

Clang, thud! Clang, thud!

The Force Barrier shook violently before giving way, sapped of strength after intercepting around twenty fireballs.

Platinum Shield, lets go, Jellypong! Bayonet Assault!

This was the moment Leehad been waiting for.

Jellypong, agile enough to rappel through complicated trees like a redwood, let alone maneuver through Bahamuts protective magic, faced no peril from being hit!

Screech!

Whooooosh!

Jellypongs arms moved like wires.

They hooked into the ceiling, quickly gained velocity, and approached the target monster.

Cut!

Before bats could even dodge, the elongated gun sword from the musket-pistol and Jellypongs other arm cut a bat in half.

Screeeeeeech-!

Oh, did you think you could dodge the gun sword if you came from the left? But

Leeha swung his left arm towards the bat that was approaching.

In his left hand was the upside-down needle gun pistol. The hilt, which now functioned as a blunt weapon, was ready to make an impact.

You have any idea how many rabbits Ive killed with a mere club?

The bat didnt even get the chance to scream before it dropped to the ground.

In a matter of moments, Leeha had killed five giant bats. Not daring to approach Leeha, the bats must have sensed their impending doom.

Hehehe, not coming? You will die whether you do or not.

Hanging from the ceiling, Leeha was swinging by Jellypongs arms with a smirk on his face.

Flexing his biceps and smirking, he looked as formidable as a demon to the bats.

Ill show you who the madman of Candle Castle is. Zellarwiiiind!

Myong, Myong!

Every time Leeha flung his arms and legs, lumps of lava from Lonely Volcano, with its mucky texture, dropped to the ground, plop, plop.

The lava lizards, watching Leeha frenziedly pulling out a potion to pour over the steaming wound, couldnt help but feel surprised.

..Sking?

Human, sking, not dead.

They were shocked how Leeha could survive, as the lava they fear even touching burned him directly.

The guards of the lizards became more alert. Leeha forced a grin at their astonishment.

See? Phew, I have no intention to fight with you guys.

Even with a high pain tolerance level, he mentions how unbearable the pain is. Barely swallowing those words, Leeha opened his character window.

These were the reasons why Leeha confidently dared to confront Jellypong without a Platinum Shield.

Leeha did not trivially step into the lava.

Those lava lizards flung lava chunks at Leeha with a swing of their tails, an unmistakable act of aggression.

Feeling the heat was inevitable, but believing that the damage can be borne due to that heat, Leeha was confident.

Because he had these buffs.

I didnt come here to fight with you. Im sorry about killing these bats, but Ill make it up to you. Will you escort me to where your tribal deity resides? Let me reiterate, my name is Leeha. Im very close to Koba of the volcano beneath the jungle.

Leeha named his mission and repeated his name.

His name was not welcomed at bonobo Paleio Tribe either. He was sure that universal reputation was meant to be used at times like this.

So, Leeha.

Koba, bonobo, Koba.

I recollect, he would say something about the bonobo guys. The lava lizards murmured and exchanged opinions.

Leeha hadnt completely loosened up, but he could tell that things were going well.

The priority is to clarify that I have no intention to attack.

There was no reason why the strategy used against the red goat Paleios back when he had no reputation whatsoever wouldnt work here.

Lets go, well take you to our guardian deity.

Lets go. Lets go.

Hold on, Grab the-

Swoosh-! Swoosh-!

As soon as he finished speaking, the lava lizards jumped into the abyss. The splashing, hissing sounds of their landing came after that.

Huh?

Only then did Leeha remember.

Thats how the lava lizards got here, from the lava-filled abyss. How was he going to go back?

Obviously, through the lava.

Leeha ran hurriedly and sat down at the narrow path, looking downwards.

Wait, wait! Take me with you! How do I get there?

But the lava lizards had already disappeared into the lava.

While he was indecisive, he heard a Crunch-! The narrow path where he was perched crumbled.

Did the lava from the lizards bodies weaken the grounds stability? Leeha, having already lost his balance, did not have the leisure to ponder over that.

Whoa, Haaaaah-!

Kicking out his arms and legs, he fell off the edge of the abyss. He managed to rummage through his bag and take out a teleportation scroll, but the plunge into the lava is faster.

Hellllp-! Splash-!

Leehas body disappeared into the lava completely.
