Matan’s Shooter

Chapter 101

Leeha quickly scanned the quest window.

What did the quest mean when it said that the next generation of the Three Musketeers must be completed?

‘I noticed it to some extent, but now I am sure.’

From the moment he passed the first academy test, Leeha had a vague sense of it.

Was it until he hunted Hijuit-Ka, or was it when he confirmed the betrayal of the two of the Three Musketeers that he was tested for his abilities?

‘Is there really nothing that this game is clumsy at?’

It was also clear that it was definitely going in one direction. The problem was the name that came out of the reward, Miss Elizabeth.

‘But why is it 

Miss Elizabeth.’

There was Brown, who left together with Miss Elizabeth, and Browless who was in front of Leeha.

Nevertheless, what does the quest reward “Miss Elizabeth’s Will” mean?

Leeha thought about it for a while, but in the end, the information he could get from the content of the quest was limited.

‘I will find out soon. Because there are no useless scenarios.’

Middle Earth always wanted its users to pioneer. There was no choice but to face it.

“Is it a golem this time?”

“Yes. Have you ever caught one?”

“Not yet.”

Leeha gently shook his head.

It was not because there was no information about the golem.

It was in the North-West of the capital. Golems appear in the Rock Mountains, one of the Tributaries of the Sentinel Mountain Range.

‘It was also on Fernand’s map.’

The level of the Stone Golem is between 60 to 70.

“I see. Then it will be a lot of fun. Much more than Hijuit-Ka.”

“Cough…… It doesn’t look like it would be fun at all……

“Then you wouldn’t do it?”

Browless immediately answered the grumbling Leeha.

Obviously, his tone was the same as before. A little harsh and cold voice.

“That’s not possible, director-nim.”

But with a smile that he had never shown before. His smile on the morning sun by the window was the expression of a person who completely believed in Leeha.

Leeha also looked at Browless and smiled. And clicked the accept button.

“That’s how you are.”

“What is a Brass Golem? Is that the guy from the Rock Mountain?”

“At Tenero, the peak of Rock Mountain. There is a copper mine there.”

“Tenero, copper mine. okay.”

If there was a peak with a name, it should appear on the map.

Leeha did his best to pick up all the information that Browless gave.

But Browless did not say anymore.

Leeha, who was looking at Browless with a blank face, tilted his head.

“That…… Is that all?”

“You want more? Catch it within 15 days and bring it back.”

Tring-!

Once again, the quest window appeared.

[Accuracy Improvement Training-1: What you can’t see from afar]

Description: ‘The next generation of the Three Musketeers must be completed as soon as possible. Before it’s too late, he had to go after them.’ Browless decided to pursue his treacherous companions.

‘I’m going crazy. Are all other professions like this?’

I’ll have to check someday when I get the chance. Why are there such unkind NPCs….

It would be nice if there was something special for their toughness, but so far, there was nothing good about it except for the unreasonable difficulties of quests.

‘But first, I have to answer.’

“I understand.”

Leeha said goodbye to Browless and left the Academy. All that came out was a sigh.

Leeha knew this from the first time he saw those stubborn lips, but isn’t it enough for Browless to be kinder now? At least Browless could have told Leeha how to catch it.

Dorado.

‘Damn it! He really won’t teach anything?’

As expected, Middle Earth is Middle Earth. Leeha blamed himself for being lax after hearing about the goblin camping site from Madame Ju and having a safe leveling blast.

“I have no choice but to work harder from now on. Well then……

Leeha took out his map.

The name Tenero was indeed written on the Rock Mountain.

‘I don’t think there would be a large crowd going in there.’

I need information……

Leeha once again opened the quest window and stared intently.

As expected, he couldn’t find an answer. He would have liked to go to the Holy Grill and ask them to give him information, but he couldn’t.

‘Why the hell are they opening so late. It won’t take much time like in reality.’

Even though Leeha finished the quest to deliver the lunchbox, the opening of Holy Grill was more than a month away.

He couldn’t go to Madam Ju’s house,

or the construction site.

In the end, it was a quest that Leeha needed to complete by himself.

As Browless said, Leeha realized again what it meant to be a musketeer.

“I should restock before leaving.”

He would need to sell the herbs and by gunpowder and ammunition. To use the warp gate, he would need to spend another few golds.

And if he failed, he would need to repeat again.

Of course, Middle Earth’s money. equivalent to cash, would flow out.

‘Of course, he couldn’t do that! Once,

I need to finish it in one try. I will finish it in one try and come back.’

Leeha only left, after purchasing gunpowder and ammunition and disposing of the herbs he gathered which resulted in his Bargaining skill to reach level 5.

His destination was the Rock Mountain, a tributary in the northwestern part of the Sentinel Mountain Range.

“Thank you, please use our services again.”

“uh……. Of course, you would be grateful.”

As he came out of the 70 silver warp gate, Leeha grumbled lightly.

One could buy crystal balls and remember the coordinates, and if one used a scroll, they would be able to move to that place quickly.

‘What kind of 5-slot crystal ball costs 10 gold?’

More importantly, it was not possible with the crystal ball alone.

The crystal ball was an item that literally only remembers the coordinate position. One needs to buy need a movements scroll, 

which costs 50 silver per sheet.

Considering the cost of the crystal ball, Leeha had no choice but to use the warp gate.

If he didn’t have any money, he would have walked. 

‘It would have taken a day’.

Even if he ran all the way, he would have taken a day.

Anyway, he still had spare money to spend 70 silver.

Recalling the day he had no silver

Leeha forced himself to have a positive mind.

He soon arrived at a small village at the foot of Rock Mountain.

“I’m going to the Stone Golem〜! We are looking for close-ranged warriors~ we only accept blunt weapon users!”

“Looking for ice or flame wizards to catch Grey-Trap! Or Lightning wizard <3<3!”

The village was small, but there were quite a few users.

The monsters that appear in the Rock Mountains are the Stone Golems and the man-eating plant, Grey-Trap.

‘As seen on the internet.’

The Stone Golem is the number 1 monster that ranged damage dealers avoid because of its overwhelming defense. Unless it was a strong bow that could pierce rocks, it was difficult to even scratch the monster.

And the Grey-Trap is the monster that warriors wanted to avoid the most.

It was a plant that crawl in the Rock Mountain that was all gray.

It approaches users while invisible

and grab them while they are looking away. Literally ‘grab’ them. So that the victims won’t be able to escape.

It was difficult to wield one’s weapon due to the sticky mucus that it spews from its leaves, stems, and even petals.

‘It means that monsters that are always opposite to each other, live together.’

It was one of the reasons why there were not many hunting grounds or villages favored by warriors or wizards.

Almost all of Middle Earth’s hunting have monsters that each profession had a hard time dealing with.

Of course, there was no place for a musketeer in such a complex hunting ground.

Ever since he started playing Middle Earth, Leeha hadn’t seen musketeers at all.

••••••.

‘If one looked at probability, it was not an exaggeration to say that I am the only musketeer in Middle Earth.’

If one thought about it, it was really unfortunate.

The fact that there were only a few musketeers meant that it really was a trash job.

But now? It was quite disappointing. Still, wasn’t it quite fun?

‘If he had a different job, he wouldn’t have taken this route.’

Anyone could see that it was not a normal quest.

One could tell just by looking at the mention of the next generation of the Three Musketeers. It was clear that it was a quest that was activated only for the ‘first three people’ who had passed Browless’s test.

‘In other words, it was a first come first serve basis.’

What if it was a different job with a lot of users?

Leeha would have been playing the game as smoothly as other users without being able to display their abilities properly.

Even if one sometimes achieved remarkable results, one couldn’t even dream of being on the Hall of Fame.

Leeha suddenly felt grateful to his mother.

She pulled the cord, and he was forced to become a musketeer…… he never thought that it would turn out like this.

“It was a blessing in disguise.”

Leeha went to the Rock Mountain, with users behind him looking for a party.

Some users looked at Leeha, continued to look for a party. 30 minutes after leaving the village, what he saw in front of him was all gray.

“There were more monsters than one would think.”

There were neither trees nor weeds.

Stones, rocks, rocks, stones.

Leeha could see the users swinging and wriggling,

but he couldn’t see what they were fighting.

Leeha watched them for a while, but to no avail.

‘It should be a breeze in some way.’

They were either swinging their Great Hammer, Morning Star, or Mace.

The Stone Golem, which was obviously slow, counterattacked once or twice, but it didn’t seem that it could deliver effective strikes. On the other hand, the temperament of the warriors seems to be quite strong.

“Striking!”

Leeha thought that yellow light flashed, but gold dust spread from the heads of the four people.

‘Oh…… priest? Blessi-.’ He thought it was a blessing.

“Die, die, die!”

“Break it! Grind it! Hahaha!”

“Stone, stone, stone!!!”

With a slightly larger appearance than a giant, the Stone Golem around 3m in diameter were broken down helplessly by the reckless attacks of the warrior.

‘They look like bad guys that torment the weak.’

After watching for a while, Leeha moved again.

The Stone Golem’s hunting method was just hitting and breaking, and nothing else seemed to matter.

Slow movement and slow attack.

It seemed to Leeha that it was an easy catch.

‘If I could sit in a comfortable place, it should be worth it.’
