Chapter 16: 16

[You leveled up]

‘Done. Huuu.’

White light wrapped around Leeha’s and then disappeared. The light was bright enough to drive out the darkness of the night.

After more than four hours of hunting rabbits, and he was only able to get to level 5.

‘It went up relatively quickly to level 3, but.’

Of the four hours worth of hunting, it took only 30 minutes to get from level 2 to level 3, it took 1 hour and 10 minutes from level 3 to level 4 and 2 hours 20 minutes from level 4 to level 5.

‘How long would it take to get from level 5 to level 6 while only catching rabbits?’ His body trembled. ‘The achievement of “selling all rabbit meat”. The user who caught 1,000 rabbits would have taken 4 days without taking a break in order to get to level 9. Terrible, just terrible.’

Anyway, I’ve gotten used to hitting rabbits with the musket’s butt. Sometimes a critical would burst out or an instakill occurred, there was a rabbit that died in one hit.

One life in one hit.

One life in one shot.

Butts and bullets are becoming the same.

“Huuu. It’s just my feeling that the mood is getting darker, right?”

This might be the reason why the highest level after 4 months since its release is in early 200s, even considering the time ratio of reality and game is 1 to 5, it might also be the reason why the highest leveled user is a tank.

‘I also learned one more thing, repeated action raises stats.’

It was an information that the community already knew, but in reality, it is not something that a lot of people can do.

Should they repeat an action until their teeth are shaking?

‘It went up because it’s now. It is said that it will get worse in the future.’

I gained 1 strength after beating up rabbits for four hours. That’s right, it should be done for four hours. In a game that only gives 5 stats per level, an additional point would be of tremendous value. However, it is said that it is 4 hours in continuous motion at first, and then the time increases exponentially.

‘In order to increase the strength by 1 point, I now have to beat it for 16 hours without stopping. It was said that it will be reset after a certain period of rest. What’s next? 4 to the third power. 64 hours?’

For 64 hours, you can’t sleep and continuously use your strength. From here on, it is already the limit of physical labor. That’s the amount of time you need in order to get the third additional point of strength.

Yes, even the third is okay, but what about the fourth point of strength?

‘4 to the 4th power……. 256hours.

Moving without rest for ten days in order to get one point. What’s next?

‘1024 hours……. You need to continuously move without sleeping for 42 days.’

This information is not yet confirmed. It was revealed that there was someone who worked hard for up to 256 hours, but after that, it was said that they gave up because their stats did not increase.

However, based on the rule, it was only estimated that it would take 4 to the 5th power.

‘The developers are really vicious.’

Was it to prevent labor? It might mean that they want users to focus on Middle Earth instead of simple repetitive actions.

‘Besides, it’s too battered. Somehow, it seems that the Musket’s butt board is slightly loose.’ Only when the butt board is firmly fixed, can the shoulder attachment also be firm.

If the shoulders are stable, you can shoot the bullets wherever you want. Wouldn’t it be a big problem in the future to overwork the butt to get some more rabbit meat?

I did it because there was no other way, but my heart was heavy.

A game where neither weight nor stamina is shown in figures. There is no way to show weapon durability as a number. Gunpowder is 10 copper per bag, but if the musket is broken.

‘I need to stop before my belly button gets bigger than my belly.’

Leeha looked at the height of the moon. It’s almost midnight now. From the beginner’s hunting ground, he walked and walked along the road, until the forest where the black rabbit stood.

‘This, isn’t it quite scary?’

Even in the army, he was on the sidelines at night.

‘Besides, I was still walking along the road, and I could see people around me, but it was scarier than I thought. All of a sudden, the rabbits disappeared and what can be seen are beasts like foxes and wolves.’

The wolf’s howling on the hill gave him goosebumps and finally, when the entrance of the forest began to be seen from a distance, a group of parties came into the Leeha’s eyes.

‘Hunt?’

Leeha instinctively lowered his body. They couldn’t see Leeha because the distance was quite far away and he was approaching from behind.

‘1, 2, 3? 4? Leeha approached with his body lowered.

It was only after hiding behind a rock near the forest that he began to hear their conversation.

It was a familiar voice.

The jerks looking for a dealer in the square.

Did they start hunting?

“Dealer! Deal with it quickly! Save me!”

“No, no! You have to drag it with your aggro! I will cast in about 30 seconds! Archer, come here! You can’t go there!”

“I want to go quickly, quickly, but I can-! This isn’t a low level quest! Aaak!”

Leeha raised his head and looked at the situation.

‘Is their opponent a black-haired rabbit?’

“Damn, the archer is dead, but I’ll get its aggro first, hit it fast! Provoke!”

The man holding the shield screamed. It wasn’t clear what he was holding, but it was obvious that a fierce fight had taken place.

“I’ll start casting!”

A female voice. The white light gathered on the body of one user , and red light emanated from the body of the other.

“Ah, shoot a little quicker! Give me that heal, please. Hurry up! Heal! Why am I bleeding so fast?”

It was obvious that he was flustered. They were at each other’s beck and call, as if there was no clear leader in the chaotic party.

After about 10 seconds.

“Minor heal!”

“Fire Arrow!”

White particles fell over the head of the man holding a shield, and a burning arrow shot into the forest.

‘Uh! That’s magic.’

The magic I’ve never seen in Middle Earth. Approximately 10-20 seconds from casting to activation. I remembered the words that urged her to shoot quickly. I could only laugh.

‘You need to be thankful that it only takes 20 seconds instead of 1 minute.’

Suddenly, I heard a scream in the woods.

“Kuwaak!”

“Blood! Tanker!”

“Ku, Damn it! Run away, quickly! quickly!!”

“Yes?”

The man with the shield fell and soon turned gray and scattered. The wizard and the healer standing behind began to retreat.

And kueung, the noise is heard from the woods.

“Kyaak!”

“Waah!”

The two started running like crazy.

“Oh my god. What is that?”

A few small trees fell.

Black fur that does not reflect the moonlight, but because it was black, the outline was clearly visible.

However, the rabbit shaped monster has the size of a bull, so I was not able to recognize it for a while.

‘Hyeol! What’s worse? There were two! Ah! That’s crazy! So that is Black Angus? This is crazy.’

The black and angry. You can’t blame Annie from the Bakery to call it Black Angus.

It’s was the right description. But even so, isn’t this too much?

Kkul Kkik. Leeha swallowed dry saliva.

Two black rabbits the size of a bull started chasing two users, one for each.

“Hey, healer, the tanker died because you couldn’t get the heals in time!”

“Why, why is that my fault! In the first place, this monster is not for a low level quest! Run, run fast! Your over level 5, so if you die, you’ll level down!”

“I know, you bastard! We won’t also be able to access for 48 hours!”

The two cried out loud in the field at night.

However, Leeha felt a strange feeling. The one who was swearing is the woman, and the one who was mumbling is a man. Leeha nodded as he saw that the woman had a rough mouth.

Yes, this is the world these days.

“Somebody help! Somebody get the Black Angus!!”

The healer shouted, but Leeha quietly hid behind the rock.

Four level 10 users failed to hunt it.

There is nothing Leeha could do. If helped, he will die without being able to shoot at the rabbit with the size of a bull.

‘Come to think of it, I felt pain when I was hit by a rabbit as big as a cat. I think I’m going to break a bone if I get kicked by those guys. How much painful would it be. Tsk tsk, it’s a pity.’

Goople’s explanation for making the pain realistic came to mind, but it’s hard to think about it right now.

The sound of screams asking for help continued to spread across the field filled my head.

“Save me! Anybody there!”

‘I can’t go out even if I want to, I won’t be able to catch it. No, wait a minute..’

An ominous thought passed through Leeha’s mind.

Why should I care about that? Right now, I am not the target of the attack, that means I can still hide.

‘I have five Black Angus-related quests, and four of them have been received with the time limit of 12 hours, so what am I doing now? Isn’t that what I have to kill anyway?’

I just thought it wasn’t relevant, but now it’s the opposite.

Four people around level 10 have failed to hunt it, and I must catch it by myself.

Is it possible?

‘Absolutely impossible. It might be possible if it’s alone, but not two.’

I don’t know how much health they have, or how much damage must be dealt to kill them. If I turn off the combat assistance system and load it, it takes at least 2 minutes to load. Black Angus wouldn’t just be watching.

“Kyaaak! Kyaaak!”

Yes, I can’t deal with both sides at once, but I wonder if I could try it with one. Now Black Angus’ aggro is focused on those people.

‘If I don’t go out now, I won’t be able to do it at a later time. Besides, for that damn bargaining skill or something, Leeha needs to finish the quest within 12 hours.

At the Tailor’s shop, Weapon Store, and Accessory Store, including the Bakery, the store opens in the morning and are waiting for Leeha to bring the items.

What if I can’t bring it?

‘When I fail the quest for each shop, the penalty will be village intimacy -10%, and the total is -40%. I might become the worst guy in the history of Candle Castle?’

Previously, I liked that I had a successfully used bargain, but now I’m not sure.

Of course, I thought I could improve the quest and only thought of a high return, but I did not consider the high risk.

I regret it very much, but there is no medicine for regret. I have to make a choice.

“Huuu, huuu Crazy. I am really crazy.” Leeha opened his character window.. He put all the stat points he had accumulated up to level 5 into his agility.

Total Agility, including additional stats based on achievements 55.

It’s a number that can only be achieved by putting all the stats you get from levelling from level 1 to level 9 into agility. Adding the fact that my weapon is musket. Although it is a “low-level crude musket,” if it comes to attack power, it can be considered as the strongest for low class weapons.

Putting it simply, the attack power of one shot is strong enough to be comparable to other classes that has raised their level for a while.

I opened the bag and picked up a bag of gunpowder.

The probability that they can during the reload time of nearly two minutes? None. If so.

“Hey! Look here! Run down the hill and come to this rock!”

The words to run downhill did not come out properly. However, it must have been a voice like God’s salvation to those who were running.

“I-I’m alive! Help me!”

“Damn, only one person is there! The rabbit is slow when you run from a high place to a low place, so run like that.!”

I am not sure if it’s the case for the crazy rabbit, but looking at its body structure and short front legs, that should be true.

Leeha continued loading with a shout. Pour gunpowder into the muzzle and add the iron ball bullets. The wind is blowing, and the ramrod is lifted and pressed.

Reload complete.

“Save me faster, you bastard!”

The woman shouted at Leeha.

“B-bastard?”

I don’t even feel like crying. Anyway, if that swearing woman dies, Leeha would be next.

The barrel is supported by the hollowed part of the rock. Leeha moved into the knee-shooting posture, and turned his eyes to the scope.

‘Stay calm. It’s okay.’

Now that he is level 5, when he dies, he won’t be able to access the game for 48 hours and his level would go down by one. However, none of those thoughts come to Leeha’s mind while he was holding the musket.

The worst and best results are erased from his head. Because, a gun won’t hit just by imagining it.

“Huu, Haa…

Control your breathing. Dugeun, dugeun.

It is not a forced heartbeat by the combat assistance system, but a natural pulsation felt by focusing all the body’s power.

He was so focused that he was able to hear his pulse.

The current distance is about 100m. Leeha waited.

“This bastard, I’m not kidding! What are you doing, help me quickly, I didn’t call for help so we could die together!”

The woman yelled on the top of her voice, but it did not enter Leeha’s ears. Huu, haa.

85m. 80m. 75m.

‘A little bit more.’

Still, the success rate will only be around 65%. The most important thing when dealing with muskets is the guts.

You have to hold your breath until the end.

The first person to get his head out of the water loses.

65m.

Now, the shape of a woman seems quite detailed.

Is she sweating? On normal circumstances, Leeha would be able to see that there was something swinging in front of the woman, but the current Leeha did not notice it.

He was only focused on finding the Black Angus’ weakness.

Where is the heart? No, is it better to aim for the heart? If you think about the area to be hit, that would be better.

Probably there is a heart near the upper part of the forelimb, so even if it misses, it will still hit the leg or side. It will hit in areas that can get quite hurt.

But what if it doesn’t die with that much damage? It will run with its legs limping. What if it throws a somersault kick?

Both Leeha and the woman must be prepared to die.

If that’s the case?

With the lack of information, Leeha could only think of one place to aim.

“Huu, Haa-”

43m. 41m, 39m, he can see the snot and drool in the woman’s mouth.

Leeha’s index finger moved.
