Chapter 628

Emergency! Emergency!

Contact them! Send an urgent message! Toon has appeared!

We need reinforcements for the [Divine Staff] protection forces! Proceed with an emergency call after reporting to Juma City!

The various knight orders were thrown into chaos as if their nests had been stirred.

To the scouting knights, the sight of Toon was obscured not only by the distance but also by the thick dust clouds hiding Toons massive form.

However, there was Leeha. The flickering shadow within his scope was undoubtedly ToonLeeha was sure of it.

Hmm~ Normally not even a glimpse, but the one time he does show up, so does Toon The stench is too foul.

I fully understand what you mean, but nows not the time to squabble, please step aside.

There was a considerable distance between them, and they were not even looking at each other, but Leeha understood Larks intention. It was as if he was insinuating that Leeha was colluding with the Demon Kings Army.

All members currently raiding near Red Wood have been called back, it will take approximately 7 minutes to arrive after reorganizing!

Weve also called back knights on a paleo intimacy quest! Theyll be here in ten minutes!

The knight order was certainly different from an average guild.

With a mix of users and NPCs, they had a structured command and emergency communication system.

For users, theres no way to contact them once they log out, but for NPCs, the concept of logging out doesnt exist. Leeha felt relieved as the personnel began arriving via teleportation.

Comparing to the 3000-strong force during the [Divine Staff] siege, the numbers were still lacking, but there was confidence that the enemy wasnt at full condition either.

What about his arm Losing one, no amount of healing magic could fully restore an arm shattered to pieces beyond recovery.

It must have been damage beyond the concept of healing magic.

Toon, being a monster, the concept of regeneration giving him a new arm couldnt be dismissed, but that seemed unlikely in such a short amount of time.

If the grotesquely large arm of a 441-foot dinosaur were to regenerate in less than a week?

Its too unfair for the users, damn, how are we supposed to win against that.

In an instant, the number of allied knight order members, called upon urgently, swelled to over seven hundred. Obviously, not everyone was pleased.

Ah, it was a timed quest, what bad timing. How long will this take? Can we return within an hour?

There was almost this raid-ending monster. It looked somewhat like an armadillo, and we were just down to its leader, damn.

Toons emergence necessitated an urgent call, literally putting everything else aside.

Those on quests without time limits were somewhat better off.

Users hunting monster groups in the new continent practically a field dungeon wore particularly bitter expressions.

If they hesitated here and then returned, the monsters would have completely respawned, guarding their original positions.

It meant they would have to start the entire assault over again. Despite being a part of the knight order and receiving support from royal families or affiliated cities, their financial status wasnt infinite.

With expenditures, there must be outputs, particularly in difficult situations, a single urgent call could mean a substantial loss.

Whats happening? Toon, again?

Ah, your name is Anyway, your grace!

Leeha couldnt even properly remember the bishops name, who had been hurriedly summoned.

After establishing a new diocese in Juma City, the post-[Divine Staff] situation had left no room for rest.

Cant we just use this [Divine Staff] to eliminate those guys?

The [Divine Staff] has been activated, but the Holy Spirit has not yet descended upon it! If only the Holy Spirit had descended, those unworthy beings wouldnt dare approach, but as it is now

So, thats why it needed 21 days. I see. And the Cardinal?

Leeha looked for Cardinal Romero. Unlike the flustered bishop, cardinal Romero, with his kindly charisma and full divine power, was far more reassuring.

The Vatican currently hosts him. To summon someone of Romero His Eminences caliber, we should have contacted him in advance

So, youre saying he was called here without even contacting him?

Of course, weve sent a message! But how quickly he can come

Leeha clicked his tongue without the bishops notice.

A call has been made, he will come.

would have sufficed, but the knack for adding unnecessary details and unsettling people is something, isnt it, he thought.

Anyway, whether he can do anything upon arrival is unknown. But with the divine power needed to activate the [Divine Staff], perhaps he could cast a massive defensive barrier.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Even in the dust, the creatures form didnt completely disappear.

Its massive silhouette was clearly visible.

The rough distance is 3.3 meters. It needs to be measured more accurately.

The difference between 3.36m and 3.3240m is significant. Leeha remembered the sizes of the trees around them, the size of the flying manticore, and the size of the giant elephant-like monster running on the ground.

Considering their size, position, what would be the measurement of the current Toon size?

When these figures appear in the current scopes magnification, what is the distance between the target and the shooter?

Three thousand three hundred forty. Forty-four, forty-six? Approximately 3,345m. 3,3460m-

They are moving. Not a fixed target.

Leeha saw Toons shadow waver through the scope.

Its shaking. Damn, if only this dust cloud would clear up Oh, but why is there continuous dust?

Its an unusual amount of dust for a herd of monsters moving, as if something was burning like smoke.

Leeha shook his head.

It was a suspicious phenomenon for sure,

but it wasnt the time to worry about that.

Re-measuring, approaching 3,319m. Still moving. Ahead of the moving targets direction, theres a narrow stream and hilly terrain.

Leeha moved the scope to trace their path.

Moving targets in the air are relatively easy to predict in terms of speed and direction, but ground movements present more variables.

Thus, the difficulty of predictive sniping exponentially increases.

Passing that point, the estimated distance is 3,323m. After that point, there might be no opportunity.

Leeha pressed his cheek further against the stock and aimed through the scope.

The distance to Toon from the sniping prediction point is roughly 2,000. At most, itll reach in less than twenty steps.

Sigh. Woah, wow.

Click-!

Leeha pulled the bolt and loaded a bullet.

He felt as if he could hear Toons footsteps.

It was as if the giants vibration was coming closer, shaking Leehas sniping posture.

It cant be. How can it be, when Im suspended in the air? My body is perfectly stationary right now. It cant be shaking.

It was purely psychological. Its only your eyes and hands that are shaking. And whats shaking your eyes and hands is your heart, Leeha placed his index finger on the trigger. He zoomed the scope in. With Toons body height at 440 and the distance to the expected passing point at 3,325m, what would be the time taken for a bullet with a muzzle velocity of about 830m/s to reach the expected point?

At that point, what is the probability of Leeha hitting the targeted part of Toon accurately?

You can shoot. If you dont, the guilt will only grow!

Argh, damn it, damn it-

His index finger trembled. The moment he felt unable to properly pull the trigger, a voice echoed in Leehas head.

Dont end up like me.

Sigh-

A phrase that popped into his mind, along with a face,

Understood, boss.

That settled Leehas mind.

To a place where even fear couldnt reach.
