Chapter 601

Matans Shooter 600

What are you trying to do?

Blaugrunn asked, noticing Leehas sudden seriousness.

A greeting.

A greeting?

If weve received one, we should return the favor. Thats how human society works.

With calm yet quick motions, Leeha adjusted the settings.

The 1/20 mm adjustments made rapid focusing nearly impossible compared to the past, but Leeha wasnt bothered.

I dont need an 80x magnification for a 1.5km shot. I dont need skills either.

He readjusted the magnification so that Preas body filled the scope. Of course, his aim was always the head. This was not mere reconnaissance; it was a snipe.

Leeha opened both eyes. It had been a while since he last used binocular aiming, but it felt comfortable.

Ignore wind direction and speed. Measuring distanceabout 1,620m. No, 1,625m, wait, wood elves are taller than humans. Taking that into account, it should be 1,628m.

With a deep breath

Weve seen what you can do.

And another sigh

Now its time to show you what I can do. With the measurements down to the lm and the adjustments made for aiming completed, Leeha no longer needed to wait.

The only thing that moved was his index finger.

When Leehas finger pulled the trigger, a thunderous gunshot rang out from the walls of Juma City.

The time it took for the bullet to cross 1.5km was about 1.8 seconds, the massive amount of kinetic energy being felt before the sound.

Leeha watched the entire situation through his scope.

Preas body was sent flying backward by the shockwave, hitting Toons ankle and rolling on the ground.

Chiyou, startled, quickly hid her figure a detail also caught in the scope.

The scene was immensely satisfying, yet Leeha felt a slight regret.

The bullet, aimed precisely at the forehead, unfortunately, did not exit through the back of her head.

Indeed, a top ten tanker is different.

Through the scope, a woman in a flaming skirt stood before Prea, glaring at Leeha amidst flames.

However, despite the fierce flames, the womans figure flickered.

Yet, her eyes remained fixed on Leeha.

Is that Selena, as expected?

Even while observing the subtle expressions of the top-tier fire spirit Selena, Leeha did not lose his smile.

Its a real shame.

Huh? What is?

If Black Basss Enhancement had ended, I would have blown her away with one shot, top-tier or not.

The flickering and pained expression meant what? The fact that she had sustained lethal damage was clear enough, so Leeha didnt ponder long.

Lets see how the second shot does. Having reloaded with a click, he fired immediately.

[Kahak-]

Se-Selena!?

The sudden impact followed by the high-tier spirits scream!

No sooner had Prea managed to get up than she hurried over in alarm.

Hide! Leeha!

Chiyou immediately hid behind Toons feet.

Anyone who had experienced one of Leehas attacks would instinctively react this way.

But Prea?

This was her first time witnessing Leehas attack firsthand. She could immediately tell the state Selena was in from the sparks before her eyes, but she couldnt fully grasp what was happening.

[Prea, the barrier, quickly, a barrier-]

Hearing Selenas fragmented words, Prea hastily concentrated her magic.

No, Noes! Noes!

Upon Prea urgently calling out the name, a giant rock formation appeared in front of Toons feet.

Uwooooh-It was a rock big and round enough to cover both Prea and Selena.

Thump! Crack^-!

-Hooo..

And then, the rock shattered into dust, scattering in the wind with the appearance of Noes, the high-ranking earth spirit. It all happened in less than a second.

And yet, it looked like this!

Does it mean it can withstand any attack of mine? No matter how colossal the monster, is that even possible?

In reality, Toon had withstood an attack. A dinosaur that lived even after a shot pierced through its eye socket. Were subsequent attacks within its tolerance?

Leeha, who had aimed at Toons forehead through his scope, could only sigh.

Elizabeth said before, if I fire a multi-warhead shot now

Leeha pondered deeply.

The fear of failing against a target already once failed resurfaced. Back then, he had not even reached half of his awakening.

And now, he was in his complete form.

This was causing him distress.

What if it dodges? That damned Toon, pretending to be doing something else but surely its watching us. It takes 1.8 seconds for the bullet to travel. Enough time for it to react.

A closer sniping position was needed for the shot.

If Im to do it

It has to be from a distance where the bullet can hit within less than a second, assuredly and perfectly.

If the sniping fails after firing the multi-warhead missile, Toon might immediately start advancing towards Juma City. Then, the situation might not just be The Third Monster Wave but could become The Day Juma City Fell.

The muzzle was precisely aimed at Toons forehead. His index finger perfectly touched the trigger.

A slight movement of his finger, and any kind of reaction could follow.

Ha Leeha-nim?

Should he pull the trigger? Could he pull it? Considering variables other than oneself, how much does the possibility increase? What about utilizing Blaugrunn?

After all, there were many rankers here. It is almost safe to say that nearly all of the Top 10 were gathered. Wouldnt they be able to handle a frontal battle?

.Ha Leeha-nim?

Leehas index finger was slightly moving.

The Sacred Knights are also here.

Besides the Sacred Knights, thousands of troops dispatched from Fibiel were not to be underestimated. The guerrilla capabilities of the Magical Battalion combined with Hyeins space teleportation ability were also of an incredible level.

This was different from the last battle against the source of evil. Moreover, this time we also have the Matans Shooter, dont we? Might it not be worth a try?

In Leehas head, endless simulations of the battle were running.

The outcome one bullet could bring, he couldnt easily conclude his deep contemplation.

While Blaugrunns anxious voice buzzed beside him, Leeha, completely immersed in the world within his scope, could no longer hear him.

A single drop of sweat ran down Leehas sideburn, dropping off his chin.

And in that moment,

Waaaah! What, what is that!

Suddenly, a face popped out within the world inside the scope!

No, to be precise, it was the grotesque appearance of bulging foul scales!

To any ordinary person, it would have been shocking enough to involuntarily pull the trigger, but Leeha barely managed to stay his hand.

Keke, it came and went, unable to hear the gunshot, I wondered what was happening What are you doing here? I called out, but you didnt answer, so I peeked into the scope.

Biyemi-nim? And you are-

At last, Leehas dilemma about Toon concluded. Or rather, he was forced to end it.

Jijijan! Surprise!?

Petyr? Why are you?

Attempting to drape an arm around Biyemi-nims shoulder, Petyr, was met with Biyemi-nims temper flaring as she brushed the arm away.

Shall we have a chat?

Biyemi-nim said with a beaming smile.

It seems like it would be a rather interesting story for Mr. High-Ha, dont you think? Keke.

Buhuhuhuh, a surprise party, you say, a surprise party!?
