Chapter 235: Constellation Hunter (4)
“Storm Shot! Great Storm Shot!”
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
Storm Shot was an AOE skill firing multiple arrows in a certain area. Its power was tremendous, given that the bound undead monsters were killed instantly without even being able to let out a sound.
But I didn’t like the attack range of this skill.
That’s why I had another skill, Great Storm Shot, which could make up for it.
I smiled in satisfaction because of its great performance.
“Good job! Yeah, this is really what an AOE skill is like.”
Watching Great Storm Shot fire right after Storm Shot, I could not help but smile because I liked it from the beginning.
So, I gave Great Storm Shot and Storm Shot a passing grade.
After that, I used several other skills not only for the purpose of demonstrating my skills to the top executives of the Siddarth Guild who were watching me blankly with their jaws hanging open, but also for the purpose of gaining EXP.
In no time, a level-up message rang.
[You have leveled up.]
Anyway, I could demonstrate my skills while increasing my EXP, so I continued using them.
The next day, the Siddarth Guild became very busy after confirming my tremendous power as the Constellation Hunter because there were only six days left of the retention time. Of course, I had one more chance of one week.
Nonetheless, since the Siddarth Guild wanted to gain the maximum out of my first use of the badge, I accessed the ‘Revival Legend’ early in the morning and moved with Arnap, the intelligence team leader, who I met through the Owl for the first time.
Of course, we didn’t spend much time moving because we used the teleport zone.
“There are so many guys.”
Massive battle?
Obviously, I also had experience fighting a large-scale battle, like the one between Japan’s Mitsuya Guild of 70,000 and Korea’s Myongjin & Mirae Alliance of 100,000. Although not everyone in that battle fought all at once, they still engaged in fierce combat by dividing their forces into several groups.
But the troops that I saw in front of me were so overwhelming.
“They number at least 170,000.”
A whopping 170,000.
But that’s not all.
“Well, we have 170,000, but if we include China’s forces, there is a little less than 400,000 gathered here.”
“…”
One could say the number 400,000 easily, but it seemed that the sheer number of the enemies was endless.
I already knew that China had an enormous number of users, but I still was stunned after seeing the huge number in front of me. Moreover, the opponent was only the Hwashin Guild, not all the users in China.
According to the document that I received from Director Sok, the Hwashin Guild was a guild representing China’s Communist Youth Party standing shoulder to shoulder with the Princelings and the Shanghai Party. It controlled numerous guilds, and it was so huge.
Anyway, I was on standby because there were surely more procedures and strategies for large scaled battles.
After a while, as expected, the Siddarth Guild and the Hwashin Guild had a discussion about a compromise to avoid clashing. However, the Chinese Hwashin Guild demanded that the Siddarth Guild hand over half of the Katun Plains, which was unacceptable to the Siddarth Guild. So it was inevitable their negotiations broke down.
Perhaps both sides already knew their talks would fail.
In particular, after the fierce war of words at the 3rd NW Meeting, China threatened action against India. They argued that even though they were obviously willing to solve the pending issue through discussion, they could not, so they had no other choice but to fight.
I just quietly watched the two sides negotiating in vain.
And soon the battle between them began.
They got into a fierce fight right away without even starting off with small skirmishes.
So, I had no choice but to say something to Arnap next to me.
“Man, they are showing no mercy to each other!”
“No way! As a matter of fact, there has been bad blood between both forces because of the numerous small and large battles until now .”
Of course, that’s not the only reason.
India lost to China every time.
And I could confirm it in the document Director Sok gave to me.
Even though India defended relatively well, they still always inevitably lost to China.
And that’s why they took the trouble of coming all the way to hire me, even offering myth grade items.
Anyway, the battle between China and India started like that.
Arnap opened his mouth immediately.
“Then I hope you can fight well.”
“Sure, no problem.”
The remaining time of Constellation Hunter was six days. I clearly told them that when the retention time ended, I had no intention of fighting again. Although the Siddarth Guild asked me to use two of the three opportunities for their sake, I had no intention of using the second chance. So, they asked me if I could immediately participate in the battle as soon as it started.
Of course, I didn’t refuse their request, so when Arnap said that, I stepped straight toward the battlefield as the Constellation Hunter, not Asirante.
“Perfect Hit!”
While slowly moving to the battlefield, I used my buff skills.
[You have used Perfect Hit.
-Your hit rate increases dramatically for ten minutes.]
Besides, I received a series of other buffs.
“Sharp Canine!”
“Outpouring Anger!”
“Link: Skill cooldown.”
[You have received the effect of Sharp Canine.
-Inflicts 7% more damage to the opponent for 10 minutes.]
[You have received the effect of Outpouring Anger.
-Physical and magical defense decreases by 10%, but physical and magical damage increases by 5%.]
[Link: You have received the effect of skill cooldown.
-10% of the Constellation Hunter’s cooldowns is taken by the user of this skill, Bediya.
-Bediya is subject to a threefold increase in skill cooldown instead.]
Since I was supposed to take part in a large-scale battle soon and I had to avoid a stupid situation where I swepat away friendly forces during my fight, I told my father about my deal with the Siddarth Guild in advance, then joined them.
So, I received an enormous amount of buffs.
“Set Magic Arrow – Lightning Arrow!”
[You have chosen Lightning Arrow as your Magic Arrow.
-All your arrows you shoot with a certain amount of mana are changed to Lightning Arrows.]
Since I already possessed the passive skill of Infinite Arrow, I didn’t need arrows from the beginning. All I had to do was to add whatever traits I wanted to the arrows.
Shuuuuuuuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuuuuung! Shuuuuuuuuuuuuung!
And I kept firing arrows from far behind.
My attack range was never short, even when I was an ice-type wizard..
As a matter of fact, I could say confidently that there was no ice-type wizard who had an attack range as long as mine.
But the reason I took the trouble of penetrating into the enemy forces was because it was the most efficient and powerful way of dealing with them.
In other words, spamming AOE skills, including Blizzard, after laying Ice Field and Thin Ice in the middle of the enemy camp was the most obvious way for me to kill as many as enemies.
And it was natural that the enemies were demoralized by my fierce attack while friendly forces were overjoyed when I attacked this way..
So, did I penetrate into the middle of the enemies again this time?”
