Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 68: A Casual Quest (5)



[Call Of The Venomous has synced with your archery class!]

[Call Of The Venomous has unlocked a new feature.]

[Venomous Arrow(Legendary)(Active Skill—100 MP)—Turn your summon into a tattoo that can be applied to any type of arrow. Once the arrow gets marked, it will receive the following bonuses—Medusa's Venom(Common) and higher damage output against snakes. Medusa's summoning restrictions apply to this skill.]

[Medusa's Venom(Common)—inflict a noxious venom on enemies upon delivering a critical strike! Damage(5% of enemy's maximum health every ten seconds)]

[A Wooden Arrow—Wood(The Tutorial Forest's Tree)(57% Mana)(Can endure and utilize up to 450 STR and DEX stats)

[Medusa's Venom has been able to take over 24% of mana dwelling within your arrow.]

[Medusa's Venom damage has been increased to 7%]

Jake's eyes gleamed, turning into jades.

He noticed that Medusa had changed into an ink and wrapped her new form around the arrow as though she knew what she was meant to do. Well, it wasn't that difficult to guess!

Even though she was in a new tattoo form, her connection to Jake hadn't disappeared. He could feel her tattoo on himself and take her back at any time.

The new changes, however, prompted him to look at the system messages.

Shock rippled on his face.

Jake hadn't even thought of that.

The meaning of his legendary class was that he could turn anything he touched into his archery, but that went beyond his expectations.

This class facilitated him so much that becoming a pioneer for the archery that Jake envisioned was no longer just a dream of the fantasy world—he could develop his skills much better than other players!

It was a power of the legendary class!

"You're gorgeous, my lady," Jake sincerely said. Her poison was of a common grade, yet it dealt so much damage that Jake couldn't imagine what it would be on higher grades!

Medusa was also the weakest for now. She needed levels.

Jake's heart thumped with excitement, and so did Medusa's.

He let the arrow fly.

Its whistle dwarfed all other sounds around Jake.

When the arrow sank into the bear's head, Jake could have felt the impact with his every pore.

[You have inflicted a critical strike!]

[-451 HP!]

[Medusa's Venom has infiltrated Leavie Bear's system.]

[-147 HP!]

Protruding like an innate part of the Leavie Bear, Jake's arrow had deeply sunk into the monster's face. Jake's arrow had been armed with Death's Lock, and he aimed at the flesh part of the bear's head, which he was familiar with through Richard's Survival Three Kit, maximizing Death's Lock output.

It wasn't a successful kill.

Jake, however, didn't even think of one shooting those monsters that were ten levels higher than him.

Which was why he had asked for at least one mana potion from Robert.

His friend was so generous and thoughtful that he had bought low mana potions for Jake before coming here and kept them in his inventory until he asked for them. It was nice of Robert because Jake now had Medusa's Venom to sustain with his mana!

'Robert's is an angel indeed! You'd better not let him go!' Jake thought of his sister as he drew another arrow! It was a normal one loaded only with Death's Lock. 'I have to control the damage output and keep an eye on Medusa's poison. She has to be the one to finish the monster for the most exp gains.'

Perhaps controlling the experience gained from monsters would have been possible with the beast-tamer class. Jake wouldn't mind giving all of Leavie Bear's experience to Medusa.

Jake, however, didn't know whether that was possible.

He didn't have time and opportunity to go for the beast tamer class and wasn't interested in getting one from the statue, so he needed more research before deciding whether a talk with the statue was the only means to get that subclass.

Nonetheless, Medusa didn't need a nanny.

After peeking at the monster's health bar through the ink form's eyes, she turned into her real form and slithered toward the wound her master had left open on the bear.

Though she was rocking on the bear's face because he had switched his aggression toward Jake, Medusa had an inexplicable means to hold onto anything through her scales.

She would never fall off her prey just because it was galloping around.

At last, she opened her jaw.

Snakes were so mysterious that they could open their jaws so wide it looked terrifying—the baby snake, though tiny she may have been, appeared the same.

Her forked tongue located the perfect spot for a bite! The spotless timing was her second nature.

[Medusa has killed Leavie Bear Lv. 17]

The towering monster fell onto his side, dead. He was the only one around because Mary and Robert were obliterating other monsters with their high levels, not letting anyone pass their borders.

It was pretty much a lone death… but perhaps one that many would have preferred, as Mary's flames were merciless, and so was her boyfriend's colossal sword.

A few seconds later, Wukong appeared beside Medusa.

He extended his hands to pick her up.

Medusa, however, hissed at him and refused a ride.

Wukong tilted his head in surprise.

He didn't know what to do…

Fortunately for the baby monkey, Medusa turned her eyes to Jake. She was a snake, but her vision was much better than that of snakes for obvious reasons. She had noticed that her master had also summoned Ender and was passing him orders.

He must have been the one to send a monkey here.

'You may, servant,' Medusa hissed.

Wukong couldn't understand her. He instinctively stretched his hands and found Medusa sliding onto his palms. She was a little bigger than before, but she was still the same baby snake that others could carry.

On the other hand, Jake was explaining his intent to Ender.

"You can search for them through skies or breezing between the forests. Just don't enter the battle because that will put a cooldown on you. Your mission is just to scout for Leavie Bears. Those are our targets," Jake said to Ender, perched on his shoulder as usual, "Hear my sister? The faster we kill those bears, the faster she will shut up."

The Baby Ender screeched in agreement. There was no refinement in Mary's boisterous laughter, though many would have found her adorable.

Ender wasn't that type, however. She lacked refinement and finesse to be pleasant to his ears.

Jake chuckled, "Once you spot them, come down and peck my minimap. I'll more or less guess the rest."

Ender nodded and took flight. The skies now belonged to him.

Wukong's work was similar.

Besides lending his hands to Medusa, Wukong's objective was to run around the forest to pick up Jake's arrows and check whether they were usable. If he found another Leavie Bear, he was also welcome to share that with Jake.

The point was that they couldn't enter the battle.

It might be a loophole in Jake's skill, but he couldn't care less about that.

It'd be the game developer's fault if it were true. Players with the same skill probably could be counted on hands, so Jake also believed it to be a secret feature!

'Just like Richard said, read more into descriptions!' he grinned.

That was when Wukong climbed him.

Jake smiled and thanked Wukong for his hard work before showering Medusa with his attention. She received much more praise for her skills, perfect timing, and level-up.

Jake helped her get onto the bow and arrow.

"Seems like we've found a new power, Wukong," Jake said.

Wukong curiously stared at Medusa, who turned into an ink form and wrapped herself around the arrow. He was curious whether he would be able to do the same.

Jake's words inclined him to believe so.

"It's Medusa time. We can't waste her precious cooldown, can we?" Jake said upon noticing Wukong's curious stare.

Wukong nodded.

Jake chuckled, "We'll try out if you can be the same once we return to Viktor's workplace."

Wukong nodded several times, then extended his hand and stuck out his little finger.

'A promise.' Wukong's eyes said.

Jake coiled his little finger around the baby monkey's, "A promise."

A hiss prompted Jake to return to leveling up.

He pulled the bowstring taut and sent an arrow at the second Leavie Bear. In his current circumstances, it seemed like Jake could remain in his Soldier Form until the end.

It was the common party setting where mages, archers, and other long-distance classes freely dished out the greatest damage.

That said, Jake knew it was a wrong impression.

Once a chance to pass a few Leavie Bears unfolded before her eyes, Mary would go for it!

Just to cause more trouble to her brother!

He was sure of it.

'I must move around and strike them down as fast as possible… can't give Mary any chance! Also, the meat is poisoned, isn't it? I'll have to kill a few bears without Medusa after that. Her cooldown is the same as the rest, so nothing to worry about here,' Jake thought while dealing with the second bear.

After that, Ender returned from his scouting mission and proudly struck the minimap several times. Because of his connection with Jake, those pecks were possible, and Ender marked the map just like Jake wanted.

He could see lone bears and their clusters.

Jake smirked. "Let's show my older sister how good her brother is."

A Joker smile spread across his lips.
