116. Infinite Possibilities
Ethan Hawke. The Hunter, one of the most famous and powerful players in the Hunters League.
Also, he was one of the only players besides me who used a gun.
‘Of course, the way we write is completely different.’
Ethan’s method of shooting was simple.
The amount of mana is so enormous that it cannot be compared to that of a normal hunter. People say that it is comparable to the amount of mana that appears in the tower.
If you fire a gun with such a huge amount of mana, even if the mana is instantly released and disperses after the shot, there will still be a lot of mana left.
So the gun Ethan was shooting wasn’t actually a gun.
It was a modern weapon, almost like a railgun, that shot out a huge amount of mana.
A powerful weapon that shoots and destroys everything in its vicinity.
However, the direction I used was completely different from Ethan’s.
[Full Bloom – Talent Bloom: Ether (Augmentation)] This was a method of using the ability to create a bullet with ether and shoot it without dissipating the mana.
‘It costs less mana, but… …the destructive power is bound to be weaker.’
So, it couldn’t penetrate the mana shield, and was blocked by the defensive barrier and the sanctuary.
If I were Ethan, I wouldn’t have had to think too hard, I would have just shot and everything would have turned to ash.
but.
This method had its own advantages.
Because it utilizes ether, which has variable and special properties that cannot be said to be an object of any type, its applications are endless.
‘Until now, I’ve only simply made Manatan… … .’
Of course, as long as you have [Piercing Eyes] that can clearly understand the ability, you can use it in a higher dimension.
For example, like this.
First, create a smaller mana stone than usual with ether. However, if the anti-mana stone touches this ether, the mana will disappear from the ether, so do not add it right away.
Instead, it creates another object using ether.
‘That is the buffer between Anti-Manaston and Ether Manaston.’
Because it was in direct contact with the anti-manastone, the buffer dispersed the mana… … but the part of the ether manastone that was not in direct contact remained completely intact.
‘This means you can use Anti-Manastone and Manatan at the same time.’
This was actually a possible change because it was [Full Bloom – Talent Bloom: Ether (Augmentation)].
Indirectly, as before. If the ether had been implemented indirectly with mana, the ether would have disappeared when it touched the anti-mana stone… …
It was possible because the ability to develop talent was enhanced so that it could be directly implemented while awakening at the time of the audition.
So if the anti-manastone – manatan is successfully created, then naturally… …
It becomes like this.
Taang -.
I don’t know how they did it, but LTD managed to deploy a shield faster than the bullet could hit them. However.
Swish -.
Because the anti-manastone was attached to the end of the bullet.
The bullet passed through the shield created by supernatural powers as if there was nothing there.
And then it was obvious what happened next.
What if you get shot right in a person’s vital spot?
“First, 1 kill.”
In the age of modern weapons, the poor creatures who still shoot arrows were the first victims.
And then the next target is all of the LTD team members who are rushing towards our PER team members.
‘Those guys are so pitiful… … .’
Knuckles, hammers, etc. are still not out of the realm of cold weapons.
It may be powerful enough to be destructive, but it is still an old-fashioned weapon.
How is it any different from an arrow?
I thought they were some tough guys.
‘Let’s stop thinking about random things… … and finish the game.’
Since the gunshots had already rang out loud once, the sniping position was quickly moved. Then, the sniping continued again.
Valid -. Thud
“This is 2 kills.”
In an instant, two people were affected. Of course, LTD couldn’t just sit still.
They’ll be communicating among themselves through earphones, so I can’t hear you, but I’m sure they’re talking something like this.
“Why couldn’t you block it with a shield? Why can’t you heal it with a sanctuary?”
“That… that. It died all at once… I’m not sure about the shield. I think it was definitely blocked… …”
“Shit……!”
“It won’t work. I’ll go myself.”
I think it would be something like this. Honestly, I’ve never been treated like this before, so I don’t know for sure.
‘In any case, it will be a confusing situation that will require extraordinary measures.’
In this case, there are two ways the other side can respond.
Catch me or run away.
However, running away inevitably entails great losses.
It’s as if the only one left when we retreated was immediately taken out.
And this time, you turn your back on me and run away while I shoot you accurately with a gun?
‘That’s when you’ll think it’s total annihilation.’
If you eliminate it like this. Of course. Yes, if it’s Lee Jun-seo, he’ll definitely target me.
A confident level of weapon skills. And the ability to block mana usage. With that, they’ll somehow find a way to catch me.
‘Even if I’m wearing a mana blocker right now.’
Part 1 Hunters aren’t such easy guys.

Whether it’s searching for subtle traces of footprints or catching the subtle traces of mana from a mana blocker.
“Yeah, I expected you to come.”
“Yeah. You did it right.”
On the other side stood Lee Jun-seo, who looked quite lively.
***
Meanwhile, the outside world was quiet as it watched PER fail to properly fight back.
PER’s defeat and escape. Even Lee Gil-han’s elimination. PER’s situation was considered bleak.
First, Lee Gil-han and Yoon Han-gyeol were eliminated and were watching the match in the waiting room. And Kim Do-jun, who did not participate in this match, had a dark complexion.
“Wow… … But they’re really good at it.”
“I should have been more careful… … I thought I could win one-on-one, so I didn’t pay attention and that was my mistake. It’s my fault… … Damn it.”
Lee Gil-han was expressing admiration for the opposing team, and Yoon Han-gyeol was reproaching himself for not being more careful.
Normally, even if you were eliminated first, you would have been relaxed because you thought you would win the game anyway.
I couldn’t be that relaxed right now.
That would be the case. It was only natural since I had never been this busy before.
Of course, Kim Do-jun looked regretful in a different way than usual.
“Admit it~ If I were in Han-gyeol’s place, I would have just come and taken care of him with the shining sword. Last time, it was blocked, so I got new equipment and mana equipment and made something new again… … Ugh~ If I had that, I would have won~”
Kim Do-jun, who is desperately trying to appeal that he would have won if he had gone out while muttering something.
Perhaps because there was no one here to put the brakes on, there was more talking than usual.
In the meantime, an unexpected situation occurred.
[Caster]: Ah… … So PER has decided to retreat. What do you think? They have decided to retreat, but if they reorganize, will there be any chance of winning?
[Commentator]: Usually, you choose to retreat, then look for relics, or devise new tactics using neutral monsters… … Honestly, this game looks difficult.
Unless there’s some new ability prepared by PER, I don’t see any way to win.
While everyone was predicting a bleak future for PER, PER joined forces with Lee Yeon-ju, who had never been seen on screen before.
[Caster]: Player Lee Yeon-ju… … Now that I think about it, Player Lee Yeon-ju hasn’t been in any battles yet! She hasn’t even been seen supporting using her unique [Binding] ability… … Then I guess she’s been focusing on something else. What about this?
[Commentator]: It seems to be a strategy to operate the ‘Special Force in Search of Relics’ that appears occasionally… … But honestly, the current combination and ability are too counter, so unless you find a very special relic… …
As the commentator continued speaking, the screen zoomed in to capture the object Lee Yeon-ju was handing to Lee Chang-hyun.
They were pitch-black granules that gave off a bluish glow.
[Narrator]: Ahh… … It looks like we haven’t found that special relic… …
[Caster]: What is that? Is it a relic? I’ve never seen it before…
[Narrator]: It seems like they are pieces of the ‘Anti-Mana Stone’… … It is a stone that has the effect of dispersing mana and nullifying it.
[Caster]: Oh… … So that’s the giant boulder-like thing we usually see? If we use that, wouldn’t it be possible to nullify sanctuaries or defensive barriers?
[Commentator]: You might think so, but as you know, Caster, there is a reason why only the large ‘Anti-Mana Stones’ are used. Because the grains are so small… … The radius that can affect mana… …
As the pessimistic outlook from the broadcasting team continued to pour in, the expressions of the team members in the waiting room of PER changed when they heard that Lee Yeon-ju had gone out of her way to get that.
“That… … is that something that Chang-Hyeon asked Yeon-Joo to get for him?”
“Then maybe… … .”
Because I thought there might be a way to write something.
Because until now, it was Lee Chang-hyun who had created special results by taking advantage of the gaps with truly unexpected uses.
just as expected.
After the screen changed, exclamations were heard from the commentators.
[Commentator]: Aaaahhhhhhh… …
While they were talking about unfavorable situations day after day, LTD launched an air strike on PER, and Lee Chang-hyun’s bullet pierced the shield.
The head of the LTD ranged dealer archer, who was thought to be perfectly safe within the shield.
[Caster]: What the heck!!! Lee Chang-hyun’s bullet passed through the shield and pierced LTD!!
The viewers had no way of knowing because in the middle of the show the observer went back to LTD, who was trying to raid PER from PER.
The reason why that bullet was able to pass through the shield.
So, amidst all kinds of speculations, Lee Chang-hyun’s show began.
No, I don’t know if the word massacre would be appropriate.
[Caster]: Ahhh… … LTD, who is not protected by the shield, is not safe at all from Lee Chang-hyun’s sniping… …
Sanctuary has excellent healing effects, but Lee Chang-hyun’s Manatan Shot can kill a person in one shot! Sanctuary alone cannot stop it!!
If you die from a single hit to a vital point, the healing effect of the sanctuary is meaningless.
Taang-.
[Caster]: A long-range dealer from LTD who shoots arrows… …
Valid – Thud.
[Caster]: LTD’s close range dealer who was chasing PER’s Han Ji-soo…
one two.
[Caster]: Show! This is a show! Lee Chang-hyun is filming a mad movie all by himself!!
LTD, which had been showing an impenetrable appearance until now, was being hunted without being able to put up much of a resistance. Neither the mana shield nor the defensive barrier showed any effect.
“Fighting!!”
Lee Gil-han, who was watching the game together in the waiting room, roared.
Yoon Han-gyeol was just amazed.
Meanwhile, Kim Do-jun only blurted out a few words.
“Tch.”
