Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Completing One-Tenth

Translator: 549690339

At the Sunflower Bar, the authority level Li Ke’er set up for Song Jian was the highest, second only to the bar owner. Song Jian could freely access even the unopened second-floor areas, not to mention fighting or killing someone in the bar;

Watching the player’s corpse being picked up and thrown out by the bar’s bouncer, the violent emotions in Song Jian’s heart gradually subsided. In his accessory bar, the black stone tablet accessory flashed with a black light, and the layer of energy covering the stone tablet’s surface seemed to fade a bit;

“How did I become like this?” Looking at the puddle of fresh blood still waiting to be cleaned up at his feet, Song Jian frowned. When had he become so indifferent to killing? No, it wasn’t indifference, it was a faint desire. The moment his dagger pierced the opponent’s throat, Song Jian felt a refreshing sensation, as if every cell in his body was cheering and jumping;

“Good, very good! As a musketeer, you should have the courage to smash all provocations into pieces!” said the Dwarf Clan’s Zack, with a satisfied smile on his face, nodding at Song Jian, “Human boy, you are suited for the musketeer profession!”

“Instructor Zack, you haven’t explained the characteristics of the Musketeer profession to me yet!” Song Jian gave a wry smile and turned his attention to Zack;

“Haha, alright, I’ll explain it to you now.” With a wave of his large hand, Zack enveloped both of them in a wave of unique energy;

Song Jian’s surroundings changed dramatically in an instant;

“This is the Explanation Space. Here, I will show you how powerful a Musketeer can be!” Zack’s face also took on a serious expression;

“Look ahead, this is an elite musketeer of our Dwarf Clan!” Zack pointed forward, and suddenly a huge screen appeared in the empty space. In the center of the screen was a sturdy dwarf holding an old-fashioned assembled musket. The musket’s design was quite unusual, with a bell-shaped barrel that was wide at the front and narrow at the back;

In the screen, a giant snow bear over three meters tall charged at the musketeer. The dwarf musketeer raised his weapon and pulled the trigger;

With a “bang”, a puff of white smoke came out of the barrel, and a cluster of bullets ripped through the snow bear’s chest, tearing a large patch of white fur apart as blood spurted out, staining half of its body red in an instant;

The snow bear roared in pain and sped up towards the musketeer, but the dwarf remained calm, stepping back and reloading his weapon;

Just as the snow bear approached the dwarf musketeer and raised its thick front claws to attack, the musketeer leaped backward, flying five or six meters away;

In midair, the dwarf aimed his musket at the snow bear’s head, the barrel’s red light flickering and forming a red glow around it. The moment the dwarf musketeer landed, he fired, sending a soccer ball-sized fireball shooting out of the barrel, blowing the snow bear’s head to pieces;

The scene on the screen then shifted to show hundreds, if not thousands, of dwarf musketeers standing on a tall city wall. Below the wall was an endless swarm of monsters, ten times larger than the musketeers on the wall;

However, these musketeers showed no fear. Their guns roared continuously, bullets enveloping an area of five to six hundred meters in front of them. Any monster that entered this area had no chance of leaving a complete corpse, as countless bullets tore their bodies to shreds;

Various abilities were displayed by these dwarf musketeers, with colorful energy beams shooting out from the barrels and bullets, of various sizes, exploding with astonishing power. Song Jian watched, dumbfounded;

“The Musketeer’s professional talent is a 30% increase in critical hit rate! Even if the target’s vital points are not hit, there’s still a high probability of causing critical damage!” Zack’s voice sounded in Song Jian’s ear as he began to explain the characteristics of the Musketeer profession in detail;

After a full ten minutes or so of explanations, Song Jian finally had a basic understanding of the Musketeer profession;

“If I become a Musketeer, then the power of my main weapon, the[Cobra-2X]Rocket Launcher, would increase by at least 50%…” Song Jian was momentarily tempted.

Indeed, the Musketeer profession was perfect for Song Jian, with strong long-range attack power, several displacement skills, and the ability to kite and kill monsters without letting them touch a single hair on his head;

“What do you think, young human? What I have demonstrated to you now are only the skills of an ordinary Musketeer. If you want, I can give you an advanced Musketeer task. If you can complete it, you can directly become an ‘Elite Musketeer’, an outstanding profession that not everyone has access to.” Zack said to Song Jian with a smile on his face;

Song Jian’s mind was heating up, and he was just about to nod in agreement when a sudden flash crossed his mind: “Mentor Zack, is there no drawback or deficiency in the Musketeer profession?”

Song Jian’s question made Zack’s face change. After pondering for a moment, Zack shook his head slightly: “Every profession has its advantages and disadvantages. To become a true Musketeer, you must have a good weapon, one that grows with you and becomes your lifelong companion; secondly, as a Musketeer, you need to be proficient in using various types of ammunition. Each type of ammunition has its unique effects, and you need to make the right choice based on different situations…”

“Moreover, although Musketeers have many displacement skills, they are somewhat lacking in close combat. Once the enemy gets close, your attack power will decrease by 30%. Of course, this shortcoming is not insurmountable. If you master the legendary gunfighting technique, you can compensate for this deficiency. However, I cannot teach that skill here, and you must find it on your own…”

With each Musketeer’s drawback that Zack mentioned, Song Jian’s face darkened. After hearing seven or eight Musketeer shortcomings from Zack, Song Jian was thoroughly disappointed with the profession;

“Thank you, Mr. Zack, for your explanation, which has given me a deep understanding of the Musketeer profession!” Song Jian bowed to Zack and said: “But when it comes to choosing a profession, 1 think I should be more cautious. At least until 1 compare it with other professions, 1 won’t make a decision. Thank you once again, Mr. Zack!”

Click-

A crisp shattering sound was heard next to Song Jian’s ear, and the surrounding environment shattered like glass, bringing the two back to the Sunflower Bar;

“Of course, I will respect your choice!” Zack’s face became serious and nodded at Song Jian: “But if you miss this opportunity, the difficulty of the Elite Musketeer’s profession test task will rise to another level if you want to choose it again.”

“Alright, I understand.” Song Jian nodded with a smile; since he had no intention of taking this profession, what did it matter if the difficulty of the test task increased?

“In that case, I will take my leave, thank you for the generous wine hospitality, and I hope we have a chance to meet again.” Zack seemed to have seen through Song Jian’s choice, shook his head, raised his cowboy hat to Song Jian, then turned and walked towards the bar’s entrance;

Seeing Zack about to leave, the surrounding players sighed, knowing that each wandering NPC would only stay in the bar for six hours and that there would be, at most, two wandering NPCs appearing in the bar each day. Zack’s departure meant that everyone now had one fewer opportunity to recruit a Follower;

Watching Zack disappear through the bar entrance, a system notification sounded in Song Jian’s ear;
