Archery Genius in the Academy

Episode 7

Genix Academy Professor Ki-Chan Park’s laboratory.

Professor Park Gi-chan, who had no lectures because it was a weekend, was sitting in front of his lab desk in agony.

“Hmm, it’s surprising to see you again.”

The last archery class in D class was still not easily forgotten in his mind.

That would be too.

At Zenix Academy, it was the archery department that no longer had merit.

As the garden became less and less, the existence of the archer hunter was only becoming rarer.

Because of that, Professor Park’s position was getting narrower as it was recently merged with the Swordsmanship Department.

Being that kind of guy, I couldn’t help but be interested in Cha Min-joon’s new look.

Rean, Mahyun, and Hyeonwang are called the three major shrines today.

It was true that Cha Min-jun was still far short of comparison to these three hunters.

In Professor Park’s opinion, Cha Min-jun was a hunter with a high potential for development.

Professor Park once again recalled the second test the day before yesterday.

‘The last foot is still alive.’

As a matter of fact, the second test was not a D-level test.

No matter how talented you are with a bow.

It was impossible for a D-class hunter to hit a 100m target in front of strong winds accompanied by rain and wind.

Of course, it consumes mana, and if you forcefully try to hit the center of the target, you can hit it.

This wasn’t an area that everyone could do just because they consumed mana.

Moreover, Cha Min-joon was uniquely different.

When the last arrow was shot.

Of course, the way Cha Min-joon used his skills while gathering his mana was also impressive.

In addition.

It is bound to be a very unusual appearance to hit near the midpoint of the bull’s-eye with purely one’s skills and skills.

This includes adjusting wind speed, height, and drawing power.

If there was even one error, it was the difficulty of the bow that could not even reach the target, let alone the target.

In the first place, hunters who focus on bows are.

Rather than hard work, it was the domain of those who were chosen and those with talent.

So, the released hunters had no choice but to have rarity, and being treated as special beings was the current reality.

Above all, Professor Park became curious about Cha Min-jun’s next move, to the extent that he forgot the existence of Kang Jun-pyo, who had grown up in a famous archer hunter family.

“I want to find out more, Cha Min-jun.”

Of course, there were areas of concern.

It was the fact that Cha Min-joon’s possession of the Jenix ring could undoubtedly cause repulsion among the Jenix students.

Currently, most of the Jenix students who have been given the Jenix ring are in upper class.

Starting with Class S, A and B.

The lowest Maginot Line was up to Class B.

In such a situation, Cha Min-jun, who was the first among the lower class students to be given a genix ring, would surely be affected by how he behaved in the future.

However, Professor Park had no regrets about giving him the Xenix ring.

“My eyesight is not wrong. I’ll prove it, that guy!”

Professor Park continued to watch the test video of Cha Min-jun recorded at the outdoor training ground that day.

***

Pak-! Pak-!

Kiki-Ik-! Kiki-Ik-!

The goblin hunt continued.

‘I’m getting used to it.’

‘Knocking’, the action of inserting an arrow into a string, gradually became faster. The release, which felt unnatural at first, gradually got used to it.

During the release process, there was a tendency for the elbow to lean forward once in a while, but this part also gradually began to decrease.

Even with the current bow, which is only a low-end bow, he tried to show everything he could do.

[Current gate clear achievement rate is 88%.]

‘I’m almost there.’

Based on memories of the original.

At that time, all the monsters the protagonist encountered were goblins.

Minjun knew this part.

It was not a difficult opponent, so I got through it well.

Eventually, the road gets narrower and narrower.

Minjun had to hold his breath.

‘From here on, I have to be extra careful.’

It was because the smaller the space, the less good it was for Min-jun, who tends to be a long-distance dealer.

Especially, due to the nature of goblins that run in groups.

The crowd was also growing in number.

At the very beginning, I met 3 goblins.

The second, third, and fourth groups of goblins we encountered were five or more.

Because of this, his identity was discovered during several confrontations, and he suffered minor bruises from being blindsided among the goblins.

“I need to drink some potion.”

gulp- gulp-

Whenever that happened, he healed his wounds with the stamina potion given to him by the blacksmith Panseo Kim.

Minjun’s mana was still in a low distribution, so he filled up the mana consumed by using the skill with a potion.

‘What would I do if I didn’t have the item.’

Fortunately, it was not a big damage, so there was no difficulty in clearing the gate.

So Minjun shot more than 100 arrows and hunted countless goblins.

during my professional days.

His fingers were full of calluses, enough to shoot 100 arrows ridiculously.

However, as Cha Min-joon’s fingers, now without a single callus, were shooting arrows in succession, I couldn’t help but feel that my fingers were getting numb little by little.

‘I can see why Daddy’s palace devoted half of the content to build-up and training.’

At least it was a hunter, so even after shooting this amount of arrows, my fingers started to tingle little by little.

If it were an ordinary person, all ten fingers would have already been blistered, and the flesh of the fingers would have already been cut by the strings.

‘Looks like there’s not much left to clear.’

[Current pre-gate clear achievement rate is 93%.]

At most, I only hunted 100 goblins (?).

Even before the pre-gate clear, only 7% remained.

After safely passing the second basement floor, Min-jun arrived at the third basement floor of the gate, the final gateway.

‘I’m already feeling something spooky. It definitely feels different from before.’

Stepping into the third basement floor, I felt a damp aura from all sides.

Min-joon was also nervous about the feeling quite different from the 1st and 2nd floors.

how long did it take

A long swinging bridge was visible between the rocks.

At the end of the swinging bridge, there was a large gate that was estimated to be 50m high.

‘If you can see the main gate from the pre-gate, it means that there is a boss mob, so let’s take heart.’

In the original work, most of the gates that appeared before the boss mob appearance scene were a rite of passage (?).

Minjun quickly crossed the suspension bridge.

Even he, who prided himself on not having a fear of heights, felt a slight tingling in his hamstrings in front of the suspension bridge.

kuwaaa—

He pushed the big door with his whole body.

The sound of the gate opening was as grand as the height.

Between the narrow cracks in the door, Minjun went straight inside.

“!!”

As soon as I pushed through the gate, I raised my head.

“… As expected!”

The first boss mob that Minjun encountered.

It was the ‘Giant Vampire Bat’.

It wasn’t what I expected, though.

When I met him right in front of me, the feeling was different.

When Minjun pointed at the giant vampire bat, he could see its detailed information through the status window.

[Special] Giant Vampire Bat.

Description: An omnivorous boss monster and the only bat-type monster.

It is sensitive and has a very ferocious temper, and bites opponents with its sharp teeth. There is a high probability of poisoning the bite area, so be careful.

Skills: Bite, Claw.

Wooo Zzz… .

The giant vampire bat was sleeping soundly while hanging from the ceiling.

That would be too.

Since he is nocturnal, he usually sleeps during the day.

‘Anyway, I’ll have to get rid of it before the effect of the elixir ends.’

It was difficult to save two stealth elixirs.

It was ideal for Minjun to kill the boss mob while hiding for 10 minutes if possible.

However, unlike normal goblins, there was no way to know about the giant vampire bat’s weakness.

In the original work, the main character is also a conqueror, but up until this point, the main character, Do Jin-kwang, was a party hunter.

Moreover, there were extras who were good at close combat with quick feet.

I dealt with the boss mob in an instant and cleared the gate.

However, unlike the original work, Minjun found the gate alone, and the only thing he could trust was his own skills.

A situation where you have to deal damage to him while keeping the distance as much as possible.

Currently, two skill ups have been made, but it is unknown how much damage will be inflicted against the boss.

In any case, Minjun had to pour everything in within 10 minutes.

gulp- gulp-

[I used the Elixir of Stealth.]

[It becomes temporarily transparent.]

[There are 4 minutes and 59 seconds left for Elixir of Stealth.]

‘let’s go!’

There was no time to delay.

Minjun, who went into hiding again, aimed an arrow at the boss.

Dig-! Dig-!

He fired two or three arrows at the guy’s head in succession.

Ting- Ting-

But.

Instead of getting stuck in his head, the arrows he shot started bouncing in all directions.

‘Oh!’

The giant vampire bat, which had been sleeping soundly, opened its one eye.

Big Oops-!!!

A howl of anger at having disturbed his sleep.

At the same time, both black and huge wings began to spread out.

‘It’s bloody.’

Even at the moment of shivering, the duration of the Elixir of Stealth was flowing, so there was no time to hesitate.

‘hurry! faster!’

He fired an arrow from his hand.

Ting-! Ting-! Ting-!

However, is it made of iron armor?

Far from being deeply embedded in the giant vampire bats, the arrows only bounced back.

‘It’s X.’

It wasn’t easy to hit the guy flying around with his wild wings.

Although I continued to shoot arrows while using two skills, [Hale Shot] and [Concentrated Fire].

Among them, arrows flying far away were frequent, and even if they hit, it was a long way from piercing the tough guy’s skin.

[The effect of Elixir of Stealth remains for 30 seconds.]

‘Keugh, it looks like I’m just wasting 5 minutes without being able to do anything.’

It seemed that the state of hiding would soon be released.

Moreover, the dependence on skill was also great.

He replenished it by drinking magic potion, but since he used the skill all the time, there was a limit to the amount of magic he could draw out.

If the effect of the Elixir of Stealth ends like this.

It was clear that the guy would rush at Min-jun like an arrow.

Where is that?

Looking at its sharp fangs, it was enough to chew on rocks.

If you get bitten by his teeth, of course your whole body will fly.

It was clear that they would become prey.

‘Is it best to drink the elixir beforehand?’

[The effect of Elixir of Stealth remains for 3 seconds.]

Minjun had to decide.

I had no choice but to take the last elixir of stealth out of my pocket.

But, it seems unreal.

Blue light began to emanate from Minjun’s zenix ring, which was worn on the ring finger of his left hand.

Soon after, a new status window text appeared.

[I encountered my first advance gate boss monster!]

[You have completed the unlocking conditions for the hidden skill of the Jennix Ring.]

[Do you want to unlock hidden skills?]

‘Hidden skill?!’
