Chapter 131: Diary of a Wanderer (4)
It was a situation that could be deemed perfect.
‘Forty headshots on wyverns…? Anyway, all the monsters in this area were going to die. This is practically a free upgrade.’
Just imagine those wyverns dispersing to nearby areas, each spewing flames.
It was a disaster waiting to happen.
Of course, thanks to the “Seoul Rotation,” there were skilled monster hunters in each area…
But no matter how seasoned they were, had any of them ever fought flying monsters in the sky?
‘They probably don’t even have flame resistance, right? I barely have 10%.’
Swish, swish!
Yeongwoo pulled the bowstring with all his might atop Negwig, and the wyverns filled the inside of Gwangjin-gu, darting towards him.
Then, the wyverns, who had been melting the asphalt and buildings with flame breath, began to turn their heads towards Yeongwoo, one by one.
-Kiiiiieeek!
-Kieeeek!
“Ugh.”
Dizziness overwhelmed him at the horrifying screeches that seemed to tear his eardrums.
Adding to this, a Death Knight with an agitated demeanor was coming after him from behind.
「Stop right there! How long do you plan to run away!」
In truth, if Lee Seonho had appeared in another district, he would have probably simply slaughtered the district’s strongest and begun his worst rampage, just like the boxing gold medalist Cha Dooseong in Gwangjin-gu.
But everything is relative.
Lee Seonho, who had received unexpected arrow bombardment instead of confirming his own strength upon returning to this world, was now greatly discouraged.
-No, fuck. Why am I doing this? Didn’t they clearly say that we are the judges?
A space as black as night.
What Lee Seonho heard through the “voice” in that place, which was like a kind of waiting room for return, was a story that he would eventually return to the original world and judge the masses.
It was said that he would become a messenger of the heavens with tremendous power and make everything right.
But the reality that faced him.
Swish, swish!
He was in the situation of chasing after the backside of an archer riding a iron horse.
-What the hell is this bastard…?
Only then did Lee Seonho feel unease in the midst of the wyverns filling Gwangjin-gu.
Whooooo!
The problematic archer fired another shot with his bow and then looked up at the sky, muttering something strange.
“This battle! Will be carried out with the support of the intergalactic weapon brand, Dogo!”
「What……?」
“I am the strongest of Gyeongbuk, Gangnam, Kaeseong, and Hwanghae, the human of Earth, Jeong Yeongwoo 07!”
Then, pulling the bowstring again, he pierced the head of one of the wyverns and looked up at the sky.
「Huh…?」
Although Lee Seonho didn’t know what was going on, it seemed like the guy was performing some kind of ritual in his own way.
-Is he… Sacrificing something to the sky?
It couldn’t be.
In the midst of all this, Lee Seonho, who had once been a human and had returned as a Death Knight, was equally astonished by the world after the reset.
So, instinctively.
-I have to kill that bastard before he finishes the ritual. I have a bad feeling about this.
Lee Seonho thought he had to stop what Jeong Yeongwoo 07 was doing right now.
He didn’t know well, but he had a hunch that something big would happen when that guy finished his work.
And Lee Seonho’s intuition wasn’t far from reality.
[Dogo] “Marksmanship Practice”
[Mission] Defeat the wyvern with a ‘headshot,’ 13/40 times.
[Reward] Equipment upgrade sponsorship
[Special] You must disclose Dogo’s support in this mission.
‘Now 13 times… It’s a bit close, but it’s not impossible. It’s even a real shooting practice.’
Because of the nature of the wyverns flying by flapping their wings, their heads kept moving, and this quest, which required him to concentrate and hit them, rapidly improved Yeongwoo’s shooting skills.
Are the wyverns just hovering quietly?
-Kiiiiieeek!
They either ran at him with piercing screams or breathed fire.
“Oof!”
This time, because two of them rushed at him in succession, Yeongwoo performed a “rapid fire” for the first time.
Whoooooh, whooooo!
Thanks to the way arrows were generated when the bowstring was pulled, this was possible.
Pulling out an arrow and putting it on the bow, the process of aiming was skipped altogether.
‘Although the power and accuracy are reduced… There’s nothing better for dealing with mobs.’
But now was an exception.
Because of the Death Knight behind him, his sensory stats had skyrocketed, amplifying the power and accuracy of the arrows.
「Sensory stats have temporarily increased from the original 1,400 to 3,566.」
Because of this, Yeongwoo could successfully achieve “headshots” with a very high probability even while performing rapid fire.
‘At this rate, Seonho is practically a benefactor.’
「There you are…!」
Of course, Lee Seonho was oblivious to the fact that he was being used as a sensory vending machine and was chasing after him like a madman.
And in the meantime.
Boom!
The “White Fire” rapidly cleared away the wyverns scattered in all directions by firing volleys.
[Mission] Defeat wyverns with ‘headshots’, 27/40 times.
‘It’s almost over. If I just clean up the remaining ones, it should be about done.’
When Yeongwoo turned around, Seonho, who seemed to have become more furious, was waiting as if to say something.
「How long are you going to keep running away? Let’s settle this fairly.」
To this, Yeongwoo checked the quest status again and responded to his opponent.
“Just hold on a little longer. We’re almost done.”
At this, Seonho clenched his bony jaw in anger.
「What? This bastard.」
But Yeongwoo paid no attention and swiftly took down the wyverns flapping their wings on the left side.
Whoooooah, boom!
As he did so, he thought to himself.
‘I feel like the level of mutants and monster grades is increasing rapidly. If it’s a wyvern, isn’t it just below the dragon grade?’
However, it didn’t seem like the conglomerates that had mutated into dragons would fall tomorrow.
Because.
‘If that really happens, except for Gangnam, the rest will be immediately doomed. How can you win when the opponent flies in the sky and you only have a sword?’
So, the survival difficulty wouldn’t skyrocket to that extent.
Given the developments so far, there seemed to be an opportunity to prepare at least minimally.
‘Even so, we should have time until tomorrow, shouldn’t we?’
With this thought in mind, Yeongwoo dropped the fortieth wyvern from the air.
Whoooooah!
-Kiiiiieeek!
The fortieth wyvern, just about to cross over to Dongdaemun, fell with its head pierced by Yeongwoo’s arrow, plunging into the Jungnangcheon.
Kuuuuung!
Then, on the other side of the Jungnangcheon, a group of people rushed over and watched the wyvern stranded between the Dongbu Expressway and the Jungnangcheon.
“What, what’s that?”
“A dragon…?”
These were none other than monster hunters from Dongdaemun-gu.
Having led citizens nearby to clean up the monsters, they witnessed the situation in Gwangjin-gu.
“Everyone, step back! It’s not all cleared yet!”
As Yeongwoo gestured for them to flee towards Dongdaemun, Lee Seonho, who had been chasing him with bulging eyes, shifted his gaze across the Jungnangcheon.
He noticed that there were much weaker individuals on the other side than Jeong Yeongwoo07.
“Don’t act up. Your opponent is me.”
Eventually, after Yeongwoo completely stopped Negwig, he turned to look at Lee Seonho, who smiled wickedly.
「Hey, you bastar*, you should have fought with me earlier then.」
Then suddenly.
Tap, tap, tap!
He abruptly changed direction and started running towards Jungnangcheon.
“Lee Seonho!”
He was planning to cross over to Dongdaemun and start massacring civilians.
Leaping across the Dongbu Expressway in an instant, Lee Seonho soared into the air above the Jungnangcheon.
Kwaaack!
「Kyakkakkak!.」
Finally, with the thought that he could now “judge,” Lee Seonho’s vicious nature was clearly revealed in his voice and on his face.
He was indeed a figure who had returned with the intention of staining his hands with blood.
And right on cue.
Ping!
[Quest Completed – “Marksmanship Practice”]
[Reward Issued]
|Equipment Upgrade Sponsorship
As Yeongwoo’s newly assigned quest from Dogo was completed, his bow shimmered.
“What…?”
He wondered what the equipment upgrade sponsorship was, and it seemed that Dogo was designating one of the equipment to provide a new function.
Swish!
「White Fire」 – Epic Bow
【Sensory stats applied to arrow power.】
【Power increases according to arrow’s distance.】
◇ Dogo: Covert Arrows
◇ Dogo: Special ability damage
Yeongwoo’s bow had the ‘Dogo’ tag added to it, indicating new options.
‘What’s this?’
Yeongwoo quickly drew the bowstring while tilting his head in confusion.
Twang!
Lee Seonho, who was already nearing the Jungnangcheon, was about to step foot in Dongdaemun-gu shortly.
‘It seems like Dongdaemun hasn’t dealt with their mutants yet. If he crosses over, it’ll be a disaster.’
Indeed, there were still red light pillars in Dongdaemun-gu.
Most likely, Dongdaemun’s best sword, Jang Jeongho, was struggling there.
‘I’ve caused enough trouble so far. It’s getting too difficult.’
With a grim expression, Yeongwoo aimed his bow as soon as Lee Seonho entered the center of his crosshair.
Thunk!
Then.
Phewwwsh!
Unlike before, the arrow shot out with a sound akin to wind blowing through a balloon, nearly silent as it moved.
◇ Dogo: Covert Arrows
‘Huh?’
It truly was a covert arrow as the name suggested.
Not only was the firing sound drastically reduced, but the arrow’s movement also emitted almost no sound.
Swiiiiish!
It was a miraculous performance for Yeongwoo.
「……?」
However, for Lee Seonho, who belatedly sensed the arrow, it was an utter calamity.
「This…!」
As he turned his head, a terrifying purple flash filled his vision.
The arrow fired by Yeongwoo had exploded.
Kwaaaang!
「Grrrk!」
In an instant, tremendous pressure emanated from the explosion point of the arrow, smashing Lee Seonho into the Jungnangcheon and simultaneously shattering his armor into pieces.
Crackling!
‘Crazy! What the hell is that?’
Even Yeongwoo, who had attacked, was astonished by the phenomenon.
Not only was the physical force generated by the explosion extraordinary, but damaging the armor was something he had never seen before.
‘Huh, could it be?’
Yeongwoo belatedly checked the last tooltip of the bow that received the ‘equipment upgrade sponsorship.’
◇ Dogo: Special Ability Damage
Then, as if possessed, he opened his mouth.
“Ah! Is… is this Dogo’s technological prowess…?”
