Arcane Sniper [Matan’s Shooter]

Chapter 60

Ch 60

There were additional comments, but most of them were praise and admiration for Tale.

Normal users did not even think of turning off the combat assistance system. Such people would not even be able to dream of Tale’s movements.

[Title: Ram Hwajeong’s move casting is godlike.]

I fell in love with move casting. What magic did she use against Igor? A tree suddenly appeared… and I fell in love for a second time. I love you, Hwajeong-ssi!

-Yeah, even if you write it here, Ram Hwajeong won’t see it. ??

-? Bastard.

-Summoning a willow tree made of ice. Isn’t that ‘Frost Wallow’?

-It’s both offense and defense at the same time. Not long ago, I heard that only NPCs were able to use such magic, but there’s someone who could use it already.

-It’s ranked number one among Cryomancers, of course, a noob like you couldn’t compare.

‘I can’t get enough of just hearing about it.’

One would not be able to tell just by looking at the articles on the internet. Leeha clicked the next post with an attached video.

[Title: (Thumbnail) Tiwi Canyon War video]

-The cameraman died in about 15 minutes, so I don’t know how it ended…. Other angles are fine, so if you have a video, please share it. If you send it to me, I can combine it and create a highlight.

– Author-nim, can I use parts of the video? I am from the SBC Today Middle Earth broadcasting team. I would like to speak to you.

‘If it is like this, you’ll have no choice but to get interested.’

Today, Middle Earth’s reaction was as expected.

The change in the rankings was a surprise, how much more for three of the world’s top rankers fighting against each other. Wouldn’t it be the best clickbait to raise their ratings?

‘And this is the video…’

Leeha barely calmed his pounding heart and went to the YTube site where the video got linked.

The video was only 15 minutes long. However, there were already 5 languages that could be seen in the comments section.

Korean, Chinese, Japanese, English, Russian?

The video was updated less than 30 minutes ago. However, the total number of views had already exceeded 2 million.

Leeha pressed the play button.

“What happened?”

The light purple light flashed and the cameraman turned to the direction a sound was heard.

There were people hunting Mountain  Goats and Golden Eagles inhabiting Tiwi Canyon. There was a brief buzzing sound. Their estimated level was around level 60.

“Let’s go. Something must have happened.”

“Oh! Oh!! What is that?! That!”

The cameraman’s point of view looked up at the sky.

A huge cross was seen, the bloody cross drawn in the sky was terrifying.

“Huh? Oh, there’s a fight! There must have been a fight!”

Whoah. There were people. When the shaking was over and the users poked their heads out of the canyon.

Kyaaaah—!!

“Wow! What is this? This is abnormal!”

“Wow, that was amazing! Isn’t that Agromni Igor?”

“Who jumped up the cliff? Was it Pei Wu? Was that the Martial Artist Pei Wu?”

The fight just started.

Berserker Agromni Igor slaughtered the members of the Golden Dragon Guild that besieged the Koreans on the canyon.

Each time his giant saw-like sword was swung, his arms, legs, and neck bulged.

Every time his attacks ended, rather than slice, it ripped his targets apart, with the blood that splattered into the air turned into red mist and got absorbed by Agromni Igor replenishing his HP.

“This guy! Stop him!”

“Kitay! How does it feel to be interrupted with your business? Huaaap!”

Pei Wu kicked the saw-like sword wielded by the giant nearly 3m tall man. The saw-like sword bounced off after only getting kicked.

“That’s Agromni Igor and Pei Wu, right?”

“Tsk!”

The cameraman watched the battle of the experts while holding his breath, however, he was not able to properly see the movements of the sword and feet.

He was unable to follow the movements of a 200kg giant? Does it make sense?

“Stop!”

“Haha, are those bitches your weakness?”

Agromni Igor who was in an intense battle with Pei Wu changed his target.

The giant leaped into the canyon in an instant.

Pei Wu ran on ‘air’ to follow him!

It was the only way the cameraman could explain what happened as the Martial Artist changed direction mid-air.

“Kyaaak! B-Berserker!”

“Come here, unni. Frost Willow!”

Ram Hwajeong finished casting before the Berserker hit the ground.

A huge willow tree rose from the ground.

However, it was different as it was made of ice.

“What, What is this? Byeolcho attack only the willow tree!”

Hyein shouted.

They could kill the Ram sisters while Pei Wu was preoccupied with Agromni Igor! If they could achieve that, they would have fulfilled their intended purpose.

However, Byeolcho Guild members were not able to reach Ram Hwajeong and Ram Hwayeon.

“Cough.”

“What is this? I can’t  tell you Asian pipsqueaks apart!”

Because Agromni Igor could not distinguish between Chinese and Koreans.

Berserker literally meant mad(?) warrior.

Everything he saw was an enemy, they were nothing more than ‘lunch’ that could replenish his HP.

One member of the Dragon Knight Guild was torn into pieces and his blood was absorbed. There was no word that could explain such a scene.

Nightmare?

In front of the strength that was enough to blow the souls of the onlookers away, Agromni Igor changed his target while running towards Ram Hwajeong.

Agromni Igor instinctively sensed the amount of power contained by the Frost Willow and said.

“Kwahahahaha, it would be better to kill these Asian pipsqueaks rather than destroy that thing!”

“Ah…… Uh……”

Sage Hyein was not even able to move.

It was not the scenario of the battle like he had thought. How should he deal with the situation? Would he be able to stop that monster?

“All tankers protect the Guild Master. Maintain the formation! Dealers, stand back! Healer, use your buffs!”

After Igor jumped down the canyon, the first to react from the Korean Guild Alliance was Kijeong.

Kijeong shouted and stood in the formation along with the tankers with their shields raised. Behind them were Tale and the other nearby dealers.

The madman with burning-red eyes ran towards them.

Four-legged(??) sprint.

“Kwahahahaha, great, it’s enough as long as I kill Kitays! Blood Jet!”

Bloody color enveloped the originally red sword. Blood condensed into the great sword. High-pressured water could even penetrate concrete and steel.

Then what about High-pressured blood?

The hardness and sharpness of the blood-coated greatsword were indescribable.

Claaaaang—!

When the Giant swung his greatsword once, three tankers bounced. Before they could stabilize themselves, the greatsword swung again and cut their throats.

Still, the Berserker did not stop.

“Bwahahahaha!”

Berserker is a profession that not only uses blood for skills but also absorbs it. Five blood spheres(??) floated in the air.

“Blood-”

“No, you don’t!”

Paaak!

Pei Wu kicked the 3m giant in his face.

The casting was canceled and the blood spheres disappeared, and Igor and Pei Wu faced each other again.

“You freaking slippery bastard!”

“Are you only good at picking on the weak, you hyena! Let’s fight one on one fair and square!”

The battlefield started to become chaotic again.

“H-hurry up, now! Get those Ram bitches! Tale-hyung, hurry!”

Hyein shouted while trembling. It was because he was in an exhausted state that he was unable to cast any magic as he put all his energy into Dimension Lock.

“Okay, Guild Master.”

Tale stepped forward. Their goal was the Frost Willow that wrapped around Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajeong, protecting them.

The ice willow waved its numerous branches and sprayed ice shards.

However, to Tale, who was able to precisely cut an ice spear in half, the random shards were only a minor nuisance.

Tale raised his two-handed sword and approached the willow tree while avoiding its attacks using a foot technique unique to a Kumdo practitioner.

“I’m sorry, girls. But it’s for  the sake of our guild!”

Taaak!

The branches of the willow came down and protected them.

As the icy leaves and branches tried to cover them, there was hardly any gap in sight.

Even Tale’s sword froze from the tip.

“Keuk, is it trap-type magic?”

He hurriedly withdrew his sword, but the ice at the top kept spreading.

Starting from his sword, his hands, body, and legs also froze.

His attack was stopped by the sprayed ice shards from a distance.

One of the strongest magic, the Frost Willow was a defensive ability that protected its caster, it also had the ability to freeze everything it touched.

Even when Tale got hit, he was not able to do anything about it.

There was currently no available information about the highest level magics at the moment.

“Quick… ly… move…”

He had a hard time opening his mouth, let alone move his feet. When Tale barely backed away, Pei Wu immediately ran towards Tale when he sensed danger for Ram Sisters.

“Hwayeon-nim, Hwajeong-nim! This guy doesn’t even know about gratitude!”

Pei Wu was angry.

To think that he helped the Koreans, and they joined forces to attack the Ram Sisters without facing Agromni Igor?

“Cyclone Kick!”

“Kahak, High Lunge!”

And the three-way battle started. Although the video quality was improved, it was still blurry, however, it was still manageable for Leeha.

Tale’s movement to avoid Pei Wu’s continuous kicks even when his body was frozen.

Tale succeeded in reaching Pei Wu and stabbed his shoulder, using his two-handed sword, but immediately after that, Pei Wu’s lightning-fast kick hit Tale’s temple.

With his speed slowed down and after getting hit in the temple, Tale was not able to react properly.

“Please become a person that knows honor.”

Pei Wu raised his feet in front of Tale, who was on his knees.

No matter where he got hit, Tale would die.

“Tale-hyungnim!!! Shield Charging!”

Boom–!

Dust rose.

A Templar came to rescue his comrade. And Leeha recognized who it was.

‘Kijeong…’

Even though the video was shot in the distance, he could hear it clearly. Kijeong’s voice.

The silver knight rushed towards Pei Wu’s attack.

Boom, Kijeong successfully blocked the attack by raising his shield while running.

However, he focused on rescuing Tale without attacking Pei Wu.

Of course, Pei Wu did not stand idly.

“There! A templar speed could- Kuooh!”

Pei Wu who chasing Kijeong, flew and crashed into a cliff.

“Huu, huu. It took too much blood to catch a slippery bastard like you.”

Agromni Igor blew Pei Wu away in a single strike.

Was it a Berserker skill? Maybe it was because he was injured while dealing with a lot of people in Tiwi Canyon.

Blood flowed from the Giant’s eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.

It was Leeha’s first time seeing someone who could smile with a blood-stained face. What would he feel if he faced someone like that?

“Kuooh, b-blood!  I need blood!”

The Russian Berserker wandered in search of ‘food’ to replenish his HP. No, he didn’t need to wander. Because there was someone next to him.

“T-tale-hyungnim, Tale-hyungnim!”

“Ka… y…”

Kijeong tapped Tale’s cheek to wake him up, but he did not get any response. He was able to heal himself, however, Templars were not able to heal others.

‘Do I need to carry him to a healer?’

“Haha, I heard your name being called… Are you Koreans? Goryeo-person and Kitay(Chinese). You look like annoying bastards.”

“Ah… ah…”

Agromni Igor began to approach them.

Tale, who was already dazed, could not even counterattack.

What about Kijeong?

He jumped.

He tried his best. He mobilized all the attack skills he was able to use.

However, the Berserker, who was 3rd  in the world ranking, was strong.

‘Kijeong-ah… Kijeong-ah…! Damn it! Fucking Russian bastard!’

Leeha bit his lip. After watching the video, he burst into tears and did not notice that his lower lip cut and blood was coming out.

“Huhuhuhu.”

Cough, cough, cough, cough.

In the video, Kijeong was beheaded by Agromni Igor’s saw-like greatsword.

The Russian Berserker raised the head of Leeha’s cousin and began absorbing blood.
