SSS-Rank Mechanic Player

chapter 16



Taejeong activated the L-type howitzer first.

Then a hologram formed behind his back, and soon a fairly large gun barrel was formed on his left shoulder.

“Five. something nice.”

I couldn’t capture the exact figure, but I could tell that a large piece of iron was on my shoulder.

Even so, the weight was barely felt.

Taejeong, who was touching the elongated gun barrel with his right hand, looked at the small floating angle setting window in the upper left corner.

[Stepwise adjustment from 40 to 85 degrees]

[Command – Elevation 00 degrees]

“scent. Now it is controlled by voice.”

Being able to attack with words meant not being hindered from using other weapons.

In other words. This means simultaneous attacks are possible.

Besides, the range was also very good.

“Then where… Elevation 60 degrees?”

As soon as Taejeong gave the order, the gun barrel on her shoulder began to rise toward the sky.

And at some point, it stopped, and soon something popped out.

For a while, I tilted my head at the sound that was more lethargic than I thought.

Soon, a loud roar rang out from the front.

bang!

“Wow!”

Taejeong’s mouth opened automatically at the loud sound that sounded like thunder.

And the visible black smoke.

There was a clear difference in scale from the grenade launcher.

[59 seconds left until cooldown.]

“A maximum of 1 shot means this.”

Looking at the message window, it looked like it could fire one shot per minute.

Since it is a high-explosive shell, it consumes 1,000 mana, the same as a grenade.

It has a cool time, but the cost-effectiveness was excellent.

Around this time, I couldn’t help but wonder about direct sandpaper.

[R type direct sanding cloth]

Upon activating the skill, a hologram was formed on his right shoulder as well as a long gun barrel extending forward.

[Minimum of 1 degree to maximum of 90 degrees]

[Command – fixed 00 degrees]

“This command is a bit different… Confirmed 60 degrees.”

As soon as Taejeong gave the command, the gun barrel rose to an angle of 60 degrees.

Up to this point, there seemed to be no difference between the howitzer and the howitzer.

puck!

The warhead flew with a fairly heavy impact and was shot high into the sky.

After that, the differences were revealed.

The flying warhead drew a straight line and exploded at the end of the air.

bang!

“Ohh. The trajectory is straight, so it looks like direct fire.”

The difference between the two skills was the trajectory.

In the case of a howitzer, it flies in a parabolic line and explodes after colliding with the ground, but a direct howitzer flies in a straight line and touches the end of the range, causing an explosion.

In other words. When aiming at an invisible target due to an obstacle, the howitzer was the best, and the direct fire was the best for a target that was clearly in sight.

The important point here was that these two weapons could be used simultaneously.

“It would be amazing if I just learned the sense of distance and angle, right?”

Tae-jeong, who was in a good mood after gaining three unexpected skills, finished the hunt and left the dungeon.

And I’m just about to move on.

A group of people walking from the other side was spotted.

men in arms.

Even at a glance, the Hunters were clear.

“hello?”

The leader of the group who greets you first.

Taejeong also naturally said hello.

“hello?”

“I’m guessing you’re on your way to hunting?”

At the man’s question, Tae-jung hesitated for a moment and fell into trouble.

It was because if I told the truth, I thought my job would be found out, and if I lied, I already knew that I had come out of the gate.

But that worry didn’t last long.

“yes.”

At his answer, the man asked with a look of surprise.

“Alone? You must have a high level?”

“It is high. I was just passing by, wondering what kind of place it was, so I came back once, but I was scared and came back.”

“ah. That’s right. What level are you?”

“Only 70.”

“uh? Then would you like to try it with our team? If you’re not a wizard, there’s room left.”

To the man’s suggestion, Tae-jung responded by stroking her stomach.

“Thank you for the offer, but I haven’t eaten all day. On the way home, I really stopped by for a quick look around.”

“Ahh. Then you can’t. Go carefully.”

“yes. take care.”

As they disappeared into the gate one by one, Tae-jeong felt bad as if she had done something wrong.

That would be the case, he had wiped out everything in the dungeon now.

If you don’t have luck, your class may be exposed.

But that anxiety didn’t last long.

“Well, how would you know, I haven’t seen it myself.”

* * *

Ranger Guild headquarters small meeting room.

Several men were looking at the central display with serious expressions.

Their identities were high-ranking guild executives, and they were urgently summoned because of a video taken by a team that was out hunting at night.

What was it that brought them together at dawn?

Cheol-woo Choi, the deputy guild leader who had been watching the video without speaking for a long time, broke the silence and opened his mouth.

“What do you guys think of this?”

In response to his question, the training leader sitting to his left gave his opinion.

“Interesting.”

“What is it?”

“Looking at the state of the corpse, there is nothing strange about it being beaten at least dozens of times, no more. But the amazing thing is that it’s not one guy, but more than a hundred. Besides, they died in groups. I can’t help but think that this happened only at one time. As far as I know, cases like this are so rare that it is hard to find examples.”

“right. I’m of the same opinion. I’ve hunted with many lice, but I’ve never seen a skill like this before. It’s really amazing firepower. Who is it? A person with such an absurd skill. Do you all have any guesses?”

The training leader answered Choi Chul-woo’s question.

“It is difficult. But if I had to force myself to pick one, wouldn’t it be an archer?”

“Well. You are an archer.”

The training commander’s words made sense.

It was because archers were almost the only occupations capable of such small wounds and high-speed bursts among all classes.

However, the archer’s information was extremely limited.

only two in the world.

It was also a country with no exchanges with Korea.

As they were nodding their heads at the archer, the head of the information section sitting across from him cautiously opened his mouth.

“Deputy Guild Leader, I don’t think you are an archer.”

“Tell me.”

“At first, I thought I might be an archer. If you only think about the firepower that is revealed on the outside. However, to be able to fire at that level, no matter how archer you are, you will have to be level A. There is no need for such a person to go here. Besides, take a good look at them dead. It draws a circle overall. This isn’t a sudden surprise attack. It means there was someone right in the center. So, it is very likely that all of this was done at fairly close range.”

“Don’t spin around, tell me what you think.”

“I think that a warrior is the only one who can inflict such a penetrating wound at close range.”

“soldier? A warrior is a class that uses a sword, so how could they inflict such a wound?”

“If it’s windy, it’s possible.”

“It’s a breeze. But, isn’t that an assistive technology? Unmanned is hidden. And I use my sword as my main weapon. In order to produce that much firepower, you have to shoot the wind to the limit, but what kind of warrior would do such a stupid thing?”

“It is not very unlikely. If only he hadn’t been awake for a while. The level is also more convincing than the archer’s yeonsi. In the case of Jipoong, it will open at the F grade.”

“Well. It wasn’t long before I woke up. So, did you mean another hidden class was born in Korea?”

I want to be silent again.

A man who had been listening only to the conversation raised his hand.

He was the staff member who had all the guild’s personnel rights.

He is subordinate to the deputy guild leader in terms of rank, but as the first year member of the guild and the oldest, he is a person that even the guild leader cannot carelessly do.

“From my point of view, he is neither an archer nor a warrior.”

“Then, do you have anything else on your mind?”

“It’s a gunshot wound.”

“Yes?”

“That wound is a bullet wound.”

At the words of the personnel staff, the people in the audience were agitated.

We’re talking about class, but a sudden gunshot wound?

But he didn’t back down.

“That’s 100 percent a gunshot wound.”

“How are you sure of that?”

“My great-grandfather was a soldier. He also served in the Advanced Mechanical Science Special Forces. As you all know, on the day of the Thousand Year Return, all firearms disappeared. Most of the data on it has been destroyed or lost. But I have one handwritten material left. It was left behind by my great-grandfather before he passed away. In that book, there are various experiments on monsters, and the gunshot wounds are also written in relatively detail.”

“Are you saying that weapons have appeared in the world again?”

“I can’t be sure of that. But just in case, you know, the government may have developed it and are hiding it.”

“But isn’t that a gate that ordinary people can’t enter?”

“If the Awoken carried it in, it would make sense.”

“Is there any need for that? Are guns that great?”

“You have neglected your history studies. With modern firearms, monsters were nothing more than man’s toys. It was used not only in all sorts of experiments, but also actively used as a research project. Rather, things got worse after the Awoken appeared.”

“I know things like missiles were awesome. But how can a mere gun… … .”

It was natural for him to have doubts.

It has been 100 years since modern firearms disappeared after experiencing a strange phenomenon called a thousand-year return.

It was also a time when the brilliant civilization of mankind was erased.

Some people were calling this the heyday of mankind, but it was the voice of those who had not lived a life before returning.

Because all those who lived before the return of civilization died.

In the meantime, the Awakeners have been leading the time for nearly 100 years, and half of them, 50 years, were the era of great chaos.

Most of the country was devastated, and there was no place where even a proper building remained.

In the process, the former glory that was brilliant was completely forgotten.

Relentless monster invasions and a devastated land where nothing remains.

Only the Awoken were to be trusted.

All kinds of propaganda and agitation were rampant, and the position of the Awakener was deified at once.

So, to those living in the present, the old weapons that had no substance did not come close to them.

Only the Awoken have become the future of mankind.

In response to Choi Cheol-woo’s question, the personnel staff clicked his tongue and explained.

“Tsk tsk. That’s why you shouldn’t forget history, you don’t even know. Do you know what the speed of the rifle, which has become a relic even before the return of civilization? It averages 900 m/s. In terms of speed, it’s over 3,000. How many existing hunters do you think can dodge bullets of this speed? fast moving? space travel? You should already be on the nether train before you cast it. This is the most basic weapon of modern mankind. Needless to say anything else.”

“Yeah, that’s right. So how do I do this… … .”

“Has there been anything from the government by any chance?”

“As far as I know, no. Oh yeah. Didn’t you say there was one person who came out of this place?”

Choi Cheol-woo, who took his eyes off the personnel staff, asked the head of the information department.

“you’re right. But since it’s an E-class hunter who stopped by for a tour, it has nothing to do with this… … .”

“Isn’t that what came out of his mouth?”

“Yes. However, it is said that he was unarmed.”

“Then more suspicious. How could an E-class Hunter come in and out of this place unarmed?”

“Let’s look for it.”

“I have to do that right now. It’s strange that Mt. Halla is rummaging through gates in the metropolitan area these days.”

“If you find it, will you bring it?”

“Once you find it, start by investigating which guild you are connected to. If you’re connected to the Top Ten, you’ll be in trouble.”

“All right.”
