Matan’s Shooter - Chapter 122
Chapter 122
The second village did not have a lot of residents.
As soon as the Wild Angels arrived, they used space locking, detection, and navigation scrolls.
“There’s no special energy either! Except for the villagers……
“Damn it! Does it mean he didn’t hide this way? Set it all on fire! Destroy anything suspicious!”
Angel gave instructions with a toothy sound.
Instead of running away, he will hide within this territory and then pull out when everything calmed down a little.
If he was a guy who used the explosion as part of his tactic, he would have used such a strategy as well, right?
“Do you periodically check the road?”
“Y-Yes, boss. We used detection scroll every 100m…”
The Wild Angel bowed his head.
“Bastard! Where are you!”
In the first village explosions were used to cause confusion, in the second village there was none prepared, was it also used to cause confusion? Angel’s mind spun rapidly.
Then a third town?
“Argh, this guy……! All five groups destroy this place! Everyone, set it on fire!”
The fifteen Wild Angels began to destroy the village.
It was a burning, bloody scene of slaughter. It was the end of a small and powerless village that was unable to avoid this kind of fate.
“The rest of you, follow me! If he went out of here, he could not have gotten far!”
Yes, boss!
Angel and his men sped up again. The detection scroll range was 100m.
If they used it every 100m, the guy that ran away on foot would not be able to escape.
“Is there a reaction?”
“No sir!”
“……Now?”
“There’s no reaction sir! We are the only people in a 100m radius!”
“No way…”
Angel tilted his head. About thirty minutes after they left the second village and headed for the third.
But there was no response? No matter how fast a person ran, he wouldn’t have been able to run more than this.
“If he hid in the forest……
It would be a different story if he went into the mountains instead of going to a village, but Angel shook his head.
If that was the case, he would not have made an explosion in the first place…
“What should we do, boss?”
“Great. Two teams, go back with me. The rest of you,
go to the third village and destroy everything. Get everything of value.”
“There’s only 7 of us!”
“You idiot! You will meet the guys who took care of the first and second village. Join them and clean up the third town, after that go back to the base! Get ready to move right away.”
“I-I understand!”
The members of Wild Angels ran out on the road at night.
As the sun moved away,
the surrounding areas were dark again. There were three more hours before sunrise.
“We are going to the base first!”
“Yes, boss!”
Angel headed to their base with only two people as his escort.
After destroying the three villages and looting the important items, they planned to move completely. i
“But do we really need to move our base?”
“Of course! What’s the use of a base that has been exposed!”
Anger shouted loudly, and the dazed subordinate was no longer spoke.
“Who was left here?”
“There’s no one left here, boss.”
One wild angel held a torch And Angel and another subordinate followed him.
They would not be able to run down the mountain road with no light. Angel and his men slowed down and rode the horse slowly.
“Good. You two, take care of the storage first. There is no need for useless clothes and weapons. Money-.”
At that moment, blood splattered from Angel’s forehead.
Baaang—!
A white light source shone from the hillside of the forest leading to the base.
“Huh? Boss?”
“W-Where, w-who’s there!”
“Don’t be surprised, you guys will follow too.”
A man, appeared on the side of the hill.. In his hand was a loaded musket.
Baaang—!
Blood splattered from the head of another bandit.
The corpse of the bandit instantly turned gray and disappeared! The other one tried to run away in a hurry
“Too late.”
Leeha finished reloading, and a series of gunshots rang out, but no one came.
[You leveled up.]
[You leveled up.]

‘Haaa……. It’s only D+. They were so hard to catch.’
Leeha’s level rose by two, but the achievement’s grade was only D+.
‘Haha, Still, I caught him. The quest also finished.’
As soon as the bomb was placed on the first town, Leeha went to Wild Angels’ base, and not the second village.
They did not expect him to head back to the tiger’s den, and hide under the lamp. Leeha predicted the
success of his plan
when he saw them headed towards the second village.
Angel moved faster than expected, but because he was such a guy, Leeha knew he would definitely return to the base, and with only a few escorts at that.
‘Anyway, he really had a quick judgement. Maybe because he’s an NPC, if he was human, he would be hesitant, but he did not even shake.’
Leeha looked at where Angel was for a moment. He couldn’t believe that Angel appeared after only getting to position for a few minutes.
When Angel stopped on the way to the third village, Leeha had not yet reached his expected point.
Leeha was startled when he saw Angel started heading towards the base in the map.
If Angel had been a little bit quicker, his plan would have failed.
‘Anyway…… It’s over. Success.’ Pleasure of success and drowsiness rushed in at the same time. This was what dealing with ‘people’ was like.
“Rising Sun are noblemen compared to these dogs. Those guys are humans, but not human, so it’s even harder.’
Shaking his head, Leeha opened his map again.
Before the remnants of Wild Angels get back to their base, Leeha had to run away as far as possible.
He was dying of sleepiness, but it was dangerous if he logged out here. What if he logged back in
and encountered Wild Angels?
‘I can’t create a situation like that.’
Leeha led his tired body and ran through the forest and mountain to avoid the road and headed to Graf..
As he ran, he suddenly felt bitter when he remembered the description of the achievement.
‘I didn’t save the suffering people, three villages were destroey because of him…”
The game setup a place where other people would not pay attention to.
Leeha felt sorry even if he knew.
‘Next time, I have to think of a way to save it.’
Leeha felt heartbroken.
Leeha kept walking and walking until the sun rose and he found a safe place where he could log out to.
Squeak- Squeak-
Leeha was tired enough that he could sleep while sitting on the wheelchair.
‘I think I am more tired than when I did the 3rd-tier general training……. Yaaawn.’
Leeha reflected on the sniper-like activity he did for a long time, and laid down in bed satisfied.
“Son! I’m going!”
“Yes, take care! Oh, I’ll send money to your account today!”
“Today? What other money are you sending?”
“It’s not a lot of money, so don’t expect too much. Just use it as pocket money.”
“Did you make money with that machine?”
“Yes. I was lucky. But it’s not really much.”
Leeha scratched the back of his head.
No much? The final winning bid for the Brass Golem’s Shield was 191 gold. It was almost double than the Kobold Eonwoldo.
About a month had passed in Middle Earth, but it was only 10 days in reality since he sent 10 million won into his mother’s account.
He understood that he should tell his mother that he was not earning too much money.
Otherwise, his mother would be concerned.
“You don’t have to send it. It’s okay. My son.”
“Where would I use it…. Anyway mom, you can buy a bag or shoes! Oh! Something like this.”
“Hey, hey. I work in a restaurant, what would I do with those shoes?”
“So that restaurant- No, I know. Hehe, anyway stay healthy and safe today!”
“Okay, don’t skip your meals!”
It would be great if she quit at the restaurant.
However, Leeha was well aware that the income he earned through Middle Earth was unstable.
At least it was not the time to tell her about it yet.
“That’s why I need to grow stronger as soon as possible. Even a little faster.”
In front of the door where his mother left, Leeha made a promise as he moved his wheelchair.
After he moved to the virtual reality connector,
Leeha logged in to Middle Earth, checked if he was safe and secure, and then opened his quest window.
“Haha, great. I have cleared it.” After confirming that he had definitely caught Angel, and saw his achievement, he felt some sense of uneasiness. What if I it was not cleared again?
However, after he saw the (1/1) on the kill mark on the quest window, he felt relieved.
“Now, the only remaining quest is Miss Elizabeth’s Wi…… ah! It’s already done.”
Should I do the quest? It was the reward from the previous quest!
[ Holy Grill Capital Branch Opening]
“It’s in 4 days……
There was no special content. All he needed to do was to go in the capital branch after 4 days.
After nearly 40 days of preparation, a new store had finally opened in the capital.
“It’s because of me.”
A single user influenced the map of Middle Earth’s largest kingdom’s capital.
In addition, it was not just an ordinary shop, it was the headquarters of an Intelligence Guild that required secrecy.
Leeha went to the village warp gate with a satisfied smile.
First, he went to report the completion of the quest [Accuracy Enhancement-3: Comprehension Test].
“I’m here, director-nim!”
Leeha entered and greeted loudly.
Browless sat in the chair as his chin rested on the desk.
His eyes was serious.
“……Were there any issues?”
“What?”
“A member of the Sacred Knights told me.”
“Ah……!”
His low voice dampened Leeha’s excitement. Besides, the Sacred Knights
visited, and the reason was obvious.
‘It is understandable. If he only cared about success, can he be called a sniper?’
He somehow liked it. However, it had already happened, Leeha did not want to make an excuse.
There was no need for emotional reflection. Browless was a person he referred to as his instructor.
Leeha only said facts.
“The guy named Angel was actually a different guy. I ended up killing his double because I failed to acquire the correct information. As a result, three nearby villages suffered damages. It was because of my inexperience. I’m sorry.”
Although they were only small villages, three of those places were almost destroyed.
By killing the double, the real Angel’s actions became fiercer, so he actually touched the whisker of a sleeping lion.
