Chapter 639

Chapter 639

Without a moments hesitation, Leeha quickly gathered his items and hurried off in a rush.

The Black Crane paleo and the Red Goat paleo had already reached a state beyond mere distrust of humans to an outright loathing of humanity. Convincing them, who had achieved the first-ever -100% affinity towards all of humanity in the New Continent, was never going to be an easy task.

Had Leeha not been among the first to set foot on the New Continent, or if he had not been the one to rescue Hudid from his hallucinatory state caused by Bluebeard, this operation would have definitely failed.

How dare you ask us to trust you, after all the havoc your kind has wreaked upon us?

Hudids eyes were already ablaze. The flames in his gaze alone seemed powerful enough to incinerate Leeha on the spot. Though Blaugrunn was ready to protect him at any moment, Leeha did not want his protection. If he couldnt convince them with words and trust, being protected by force would make him no different from the users who earn the Subjugation achievement.

Not all humans are like that. I, more than anyone, am definitely not. Those fools dont even understand the gravity of their actions. So

Youll personally sort them out?Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Yes. More than anything, I dont want to see you getting subjugated.

After all, its an achievement I dont have.

What did you just say?

I said, I want to protect you, heh, thats right. Please believe me. Ive come to help you.

I have no doubts about your skills, considering you once shot off my toe from a distance. But can you really betray your own kind and still survive?

Hudid twitched his long leg. One toe was noticeably shorter than the others, a result of Leehas sniping that had left its mark.

Right. If they found out I attacked, it would undoubtedly create a huge uproar. I might even be constantly on the run.

But youre willing to take that risk to help us?

Yes.

Why?

Hudid tilted his head, wondering why anyone would go through such trouble without a clear incentive. But that was a story for yesterday.

Leeha looked at Hudid and pulled out two items.

Because they wont know it was me.

The silencer and the subsonic bullet had their first real test. Leeha proved the effectiveness of these items to them.

This, is this from that time-

Eldest. Quiet.

-Yes! Guardian deity.

The effect was evident enough to make the Black Crane paleo, Hudids eldest, stutter in surprise. Quieter than a whistle.

Quieter than the sound of their own footsteps on the new grass. The combination of the silencer and the subsonic bullet demonstrated an ultimate decibel reduction, and from that alone, Hudid understood completely what Leeha was saying.

If I can keep hidden in my abode, it would be easy to expose that sharp-nosed one.

Thank you for your trust.

Our hearts are with you. Everyone, get ready. Humans come at dusk.

Flap flap!

Hudid took to the sky immediately. The Black Crane paleos dispersed around, casting fleeting glances at Leeha. The gunfire was quieter than the sound of a sword slicing through the air. For the Black Crane paleos, who had either seen or experienced Leehas attacks at least once, it was an unbelievably silent affair.

I cant feel the waves of mana at all. To think that this is possible without silence magic Leeha is truly unpredictable. Where does he keep getting such knowledge from?

Ah! It wasnt by chance that I became Blaugrunns partner. Save your admiration for later, and please gather intelligence once were back in Juma City.

Magic or skills werent the tools here.

It was the path where only the performance of items enhanced the utility of a sniper.

Leeha knew intuitively. Today, in battle, he would undergo a transformation as a sniper.

A great sniper is one whose presence was never even known. Isnt that what they say? A famous sniper on the battlefield is virtually asking to be killed quickly.

A perfect snipe is when neither friend nor foe realizes the sniper existed.

Though I mentioned it today to the Black Crane paleo tribe if this werent the battlefield-

Now, would the Black Crane please give us a shout~

Hudid, following the plan, shouted as agreed. The Black Crane paleos began their transformation, everything proceeding exactly as Leeha had anticipated. All that remained was to attack the knights at the right moment during the paleos assault.

Block them! Black Cranes are not that strong! Overpower them with force! Advance in an attack formation!

Huh, they all sound the same, Leeha murmured to herself, nodding at the sound strategy. However, it was merely a second-best option.

Suspect battlefields are best avoided. Stubbornness wont change that

A knight within Leehas scope positioned his shield and sword.

Swiftly blocking an attack from a Black Crane paleos beak, he swung his sword.

Pft-.

A part of the shot successfully severed, and as he stepped forward for an additional strike, he turned to lead. The small hole in his side was the cause of his demise, unnoticed by anyone around, including the 448 users.

Alright, lets clean up this mess, said Leeha, as cute (?) puffing sounds continued around him. They were reminiscent of living Black Bass whispering the breath of death to their enemies, a sound akin to breathing. The Brytax Order, nearly equal in number to the Castilla Order, was annihilated in 11 minutes and 27 seconds.

The brave Castilla knights could barely enjoy the victory, noting, Even a lesser order couldnt last long against us! realizing that an entire knight order had been decimated in less than 15 minutes.

[Your level has increased.]

[Trust with all creatures in the New Continent Erika has been established.]

Oh, look at that! Trust, of all things.

The system window was unexpected for Leeha. No specific quest had been undertaken. It was merely an act of goodwill, of greater purpose.

Does it mean that my choices werent wrong after all? Would Alexander or Lee Jiwon notice this?

Leeha pondered for a moment. Alexander was logged in, Lee Jiwon logged out. Abandoning the idea of contacting Alexander, Leeha shrugged.

No, I need to look into this more. Its too early to jump to conclusions without knowing what it means. Being informed by the system window alone is a privilege comparable to the one given by Middle Earth itself.

In a game where every choice and the flow of the world are in the players hands, receiving hints through a system window was something else. Leeha opened his character window to check his stats and rotated his shoulders.

Ugh two sessions in one day are tough. My shoulders are stiff. Blaugrunn! Come here and help me with a massage!

Leeha had become the first user to start building trust with mystical creatures, now exploiting a dragon for massages.

It seems like the number of knights is decreasing, doesnt it?

They didnt go back to their homeland either especially the numbers from Minis order have drastically reduced.

As much as the days we have left to defend are few, we should be joining forces now more than ever. This is too much!

Complaints near the [Divine Staff] were growing. Since Fibiel and the Shazrashian were already enemies or in unfriendly terms with Minis, their stance was expected. However, even allies from Kraven became increasingly uncomfortable with the dwindling numbers of Minis knights.

[Sanctification]

Objective:

Secure the Divine Staff in New Continent Erika within 15 days (Completed)After securing the Divine Staff, provide protection for 21 days (5 days remaining).

The remaining time until the Divine Staff activates and forms a contract with the divine spirit is only 5 days.

These guys, they make us do all the dirty work while they enjoy themselves somewhere? They only showed up for the first three days and havent been seen since.

Whether they were illusions or real beings, Toon and the monster mobs appeared here every day for the past 16 days, changing locations each time. As a result, other knight orders were unable to properly complete quests or hunt because they were tied down to this place.

Therefore, the remaining knights of Minis near the [Divine Staff] had no choice but to hear all sorts of suspicions and gossip. At the center of it all was, of course, the Minis Defense Knight Order, led by Virtue.
