Chapter 74 74 Wraith [The Strongest Player]
?"This is a good place to obtain XP" the figure spoke and quickly removed his dual flintlock from the holster on his waist, on top of the figure's head a small blue screen was hovering.
[Wraith]
[Level 50]
"Deep breath...deep breath, why am I nervous, there are just high-level NPCs, nothing to be afraid of" Wraith chuckled.
'Okay then, there are more than 20 horsemen and foot soldiers, and both of my pistols contain four rounds each, so that's a bummer" Wraith mumbled as he closed in.
The village being attacked was a small settlement of refugees from other villages, due to bandits and beast attacks the city chose to protect them, but not they were abandoned by the city that was supposed to protect them.
The village has over 20 houses and they were lots of farmers so there were farmlands around and a lot of animals being raised.
"Gather the survivors, they are going to be slaves of the city" a man spoke from his horse.
His horse had all sorts of armor and designs and he didn't participate in the fight, his sword was on his waist and he was protected by foot soldiers while the others round up the remaining villagers.
"So 31 of them, that's moderate I know I can take them so why am I nervous, I have a bad feeling about this" he mumbled as he stood close to one of the houses in the village.
[You received a message from Bloodmoon]
[Hey Wraith, I found an interesting dungeon, mind if we go exploring]
"This guy, wait is he asking me for help, that means it's a legendary dungeon or a..." before Wraith could finish his sentence a soldier walked past him.
The soldier was looking around to see if any of the villagers escaped and Wraith was standing close to the wall so the soldier didn't see him.
"Fuck I was saving this skill for the commander" Wraith muttered and kept his guns back and raised his hands up.
The soldier turned around and saw him on the ground with his hands, his coat covering up his guns as he looked at the soldier.
"You...what are you doing here?" the soldier asked.
He was still standing in the path he came from and the other soldiers could see him so Wraith was trying to lure him away so he could kill him silently.
The soldier walked towards Wraith and when he reached where Wraith was the house provided cover for both of them.
"I'm really sorry but you have to die for the greater good," Wraith said with a smile on his face.
"What the heck are you sayin..." blood stained the ground as the soldier fell unconscious but Wraith caught him before he could fall on the ground.
He carefully dropped him down before his body began to disintegrate and turn into pixels before fading away.
[180sec cooldown]
"You don't have to tell me," Wraith said as he looked at the screen.
His flintlock pistol makes lots of noise when fired so he used one of his skills and fired a silent round, but his skill had a cooldown of 3 minutes.
"30 more to go, and they are all in one spot, I just have to kill them and avoid the villagers," Wraith said with a smile as he loaded the last bullet into his flintlock.
Wraith's dual flintlock pistol was an Epic quality weapon capable of firing four rounds each, if all the rounds are fired it has a 30sec cooldown before it can be reloaded again.
But instead of firing all the rounds, Wraith fires only three bullets from each of his pistols and reloaded them immediately without having to wait for the cooldown period.
"All set... I'm feeling a twinge, the commander is a level 120 NPC and a battle commander, I'm going to torture him before killing him" Wraith muttered as he stepped out so the soldiers could see him.
"Who is that..." one of the soldiers said as he saw Wraith.
"Intruder...kill him...now" the commander shouted and 10 soldiers ran towards Wraith.
"Only 10, then this would be very easy, even though I have just 8 bullets here, this isn't my one pistol and as long as I hit a vital spot it's over" Wraith shouted as the soldiers ran towards him.
As a marksman his greatest advantage is his range, he isn't supposed to show himself to the enemy but he isn't an ordinary marksman, he's the strongest player in Nova Online.
Wraith aimed both of his guns at the incoming soldiers, the soldiers increased their pace so they would be able to reach him as soon as he fires, he would only be able to fire one round from each of his pistols before he's killed.
"Deep breath...deep breath" Wraith closed his eyes as the soldiers ran towards him, now they were just a few steps away and he hasn't fired a single round, the soldiers were now pretty confident that the person in front of them isn't a warrior and the guns were just for scaring people.
The first soldier closed the distance between them and immediately he swung his sword towards Wraith's neck, the soldier moved so gracefully that his attack was impossible to dodge.
Wraith opened his eyes and bent down at an amazing speed that even the soldiers could see what happened.
"One..." Wraith mumbled as he fired the head of the soldier in front of him.
The other soldiers swung into action and moved towards him but his movements were inhuman, his speed and reflexes were magnificent not even the soldiers could keep up but for some reason, he didn't kill any of them.
As the soldiers swung their swords around he only dodged their weapons and touched their heads with his gun without shooting. After he successfully touched all of them with his gun he quickly backed away from them.
"Who are you and what do you want?" the soldiers asked as Wraith kept his distance.
"Why are you guys attacking this village, you should attack the city you are at war with not here" Wraith spoke.
"We are cutting out their food supplies, this village works for them"
"Well unfortunately for you guys I was in the area and I decided to interface because I have a business with your rivals"
"Well then you did the wrong thing coming here because you are going to die, you had your chance to kill us but you didn't and now you are going to die," the soldiers said.
"Yes I could but it's a waste of bullets, and I wanted to talk to you about something" Wraith spoke but the soldiers weren't listening, they reached into their pockets and brought out a small potion bottle.
"That's what I want to talk to you guys about," Wraith said but the soldiers drank the potions immediately.
Even Wraith could feel the evil aura radiating from the 9 soldiers in front of him, the potion was a boosting potion but unlike any in the shops and that was why Wraith was investigating.
"Round up the villagers we are going home, they drank it so there is no need to worry anymore" the commander spoke from where he was as he watched the battle.
"You bastard, time to die," the soldiers said as they charged forward at an amazing speed.
"Sorry guys but to me, you guys are already dead" Wraith mumbled.
[Ricochet]
Wraith fired another bullet from his pistol toward one of the soldier's heads as he activated one of his skills and walked forward.
The bullet shot straight at the soldier's skull but after it hit, the bullet moved inside the dead soldier's skull and burst out from another direction towards the second target.
Wraith walked forward as all 9 soldiers fell one after the other after only one bullet was fired, this was Wraith's most powerful skill.
This skill allows him to hit multiple targets with just one bullet as long as he touched them with the tip of his gun, the touch effect wears off after three minutes, so after touching them he is able to kill them within three minutes.
But he is only able to use the skill twice in one day, and earlier he used the skill to kill wolves chasing him in the forest.
