Chapter 66 – 6. Sniper Bruhlin (6)
Ironclad HE shells devastated the emergency room in Beta Building. I was worried that the body would be damaged, but it was only for a short time. The five senses and sixth sense, which had regained their function belatedly, warned me. If I stay here, I will die.
“From the very beginning!”
I fired a series of bullets with Lion’s Roar. That time reached 5 seconds. Even the walls made of steel and concrete were helpless in front of the explosion of 45 bullets. Naturally, it was soon engulfed in hot flames, and Matheus, who was somewhere there, would also be killed or injured.
“It was something you guys started from the beginning!”
The effect of the flashbang is doubled due to the nature of the scope that gathers and shows the light. Naturally, Alpha Dong’s shooter, who aimed at the inside of the emergency room, will be incapacitated for the time being. But the time is probably about a minute or two at most. This trick never lasts long for battlefield specialists who have come out of it under all kinds of circumstances.
“This flame is your fire!”
I shouted, lowering the muzzle. While the burned curtains and bed sheets obstructed the view, Matheus’ body was still unidentified. It was bad news for me, who had to cut off his breath in order to get rid of the aftereffects.
“You’re going to hit me, tear me up, kill me?”
Stepping into the blazing fire. It is difficult to relax because you do not know when and where an attack will come. I crossed between the repulsive burnt smell and the charred corpses. Geary threw himself between the cover, but was counterattacked and faced Matheus.
“How dare you scumbags like you?”
“…… Cool.”
The guy was dying. Caught up in an explosion created by an ironclad high-explosive bomb, he was pinned to a pillar and wall as a soldier. The rebar that came out of the pillar penetrated his abdomen and caused bleeding, and thanks to that, the magic bullet shooter, who became contemplative, smiled and looked into my eyes.
“When war breaks out, the messenger is the first to lose his life…….”
Violinist of the Black Orchestra.
A corporal in the 0th Corps of the Bernhardt Army.
Herald Matheus coughed up blood. I was determined, but despite that, he saw through my trembling eyes and laughed at me. On the other hand, he shuddered as if he knew he would face such an empty end.
“Because a sniper only shows its value when it is not revealed…….”
There was madness in his trembling voice. Judging by how fast he was breathing, it looked like he was about to fall asleep. But nonetheless, I aimed my gun in case this was some hallucination or deception.
“Captain Julich, I go first…….”
Matheus put something he was holding in his right hand into his mouth. He then pointed the gun in his left hand at me and tried to pull the trigger.
I don’t know what it was, but it didn’t feel good. Even if it was a normal bullet, I didn’t intend to hit it, so I pulled the trigger faster than he did.
Bang, bang!
A bullet shattered his head. Following the blood and flesh, fragments of the skull spread in all directions, brushing my cheeks. The man’s body, which had been alive just a moment ago, turned into a piece of meat in an instant, and I tried to hold back my nausea without looking away from his flinching gaze.
But it was a bunch. The renal gastric juices refluxed and came up. I didn’t eat anything, so I spat out such gastric juices, and then I braced myself on a pole.
Murder, as always, was daunting. There was never any way to get used to it. Maybe that’s why I didn’t notice.
Belatedly, the surrounding magic power fluctuates.
“…… !”
Matheus’ corpse glowed. To be precise, blue light poured from the part of the face that exploded.
I knew this light. It was a magic I had just used myself not too long ago. Shocked, I suppressed my disgust and went through the corpse’s belongings.
“Memories flooded…… !”
Then I found it in the bullet belt around my waist. A bullet engraved with the word memory in Bernhardt.
It was this memory bullet that Matheus shoveled into his mouth. Originally, it seemed that they arranged things that could only be fired with the firearms scattered around here by manually injecting mana into them.
Bullets are made of gunpowder. To gain strength, you need heat. In that short time, he took advantage of the firepower of my ironclad high-explosive shells. I used it as the fuse for my magic bullet. It wouldn’t have been difficult to carry out such a crazy plan since he showed up with the determination to die from the start.
– From the very beginning!
The blue light flowing from the dead overpowered the red light. It then spread throughout the ward. The scope reached the entire Alpha and Beta buildings of Brulin Special General Hospital. This colossal memory flooding magic shared what Matheus saw with all the actors on stage.
― It was something you guys started from the beginning!
Did you say this certification? It was very strange to rehash what I had been through a while ago through the eyes of others. Thanks to that, I had to constantly struggle to get rid of the unpleasant memories that had dug into my brain. The flood of memories lasted less than a minute, but the contents were still surprising enough.
―This flame is your fire!
Not good. Magic bullet shooter uses forbidden as a driving force. For those who drink blood, devour flesh, and instigate a polluted mind, this memory will provide more stimulation than necessary. I don’t care if this body is crushed, but I can’t let it hurt Elizabeth.
– You’re going to hit me, tear me up, kill me?
But why is it at this moment? As I checked my equipment and prepared for an unexpected surprise, I was seized with doubts. It was because I felt like I was missing something. In such cases, intuition is usually right, and the doubts inevitably deepened.
― How dare a scumbag like you?
The weapon that the magic gunner handles is clearly a weapon of mass destruction. Although it is difficult to be ruthless like nuclear weapons, it is perfect to use it as messy as chemical weapons. Didn’t I cast a memory overflow magic on this scale that even I couldn’t activate right away?
Even magic of a higher rank than that is manifested from the tip of the gun, and it must be the shooter.
If Matheus had made up his mind, we could have looked back on his life together here. But why not? Why did you use memory overflow among many magics in the first place?
―Captain Julich, I’m going first…….
A thrill arose. His hair stood out and his hands trembled. It was because I realized it too late. I went to the empty window, hoping that my reasoning was wrong. A flash grenade is a weapon that takes away sight and hearing. But binge drinking is bound to change depending on the distance.
“Damn it…… !”
It wasn’t to convey the conversation I had with you. Of course, it is self-evident that my work will incite their anger even more. But Matheus, the magic bullet he put in his mouth and swallowed was not used for such emotional agitation.
“You tried to share my location…… !”
A red aiming point appeared under her feet. It was from the shooter on the 7th floor of Alpha Building. That dwarf with a sniper rifle hanging by the window at the end of the hallway was the dwarf I knew.
The concert master of the Black Orchestra, the captain who leads the magic bullet shooters.
“Julich Renner…… !”
Because of the flash grenades, his eyesight hadn’t returned yet. Nevertheless, it was because of his relatively intact hearing that he was able to achieve such accurate aim. The delicate ears of elves are so easily damaged, but at this distance, even the most roaring sounds are useless.
Bang!
Julich fired a bullet. The bullet hit right in front of the shoe I was wearing because of my belated gesture. And soon, the emergency room, which had been blazing under the breath of fire, was rapidly cooled and frozen.
It was magic
The bullets imbued with the magic of freezing cooled this space in an instant.
“Chit!”
The floor and pillars freeze one after another. Quite high-class freezing magic is certain. If it had hit somewhere in the body, the whole body would have been frozen solid. I ran into the hallway without even searching Matheus’ body. The body was heavy because it was armed, but there was no choice.
Bang!
The second bullet landed right where I had just been standing. The magic contained was an explosion. A small mushroom cloud was created by the sparks that were incomparably more powerful than my high-explosive bombs. Not only did it slam me into the wall with just the shockwave, it burned my entire body.
“Turn it off!”
The body is crushed by the pressure. His right shoulder was also dislocated while his head and skin were burned. This is no longer a simple hostage-taking level. They are terrorists and they are waging a war. With one single determination to defeat me, my enemy, and take revenge!
“If I thought I would back down to this point…… !”
I resolutely took a step forward. He chewed his lips until they were torn, enduring the pain. Whether or not the dislocated right arm was wobbly, it moved unsteadily. In the end, he started running with his armament weighing several tens of kilograms, and crawled through the corridors.
Bang! Tata Tang!
Blind gunners’ barrage pours down. Despite the prediction, the bullet narrows the encirclement by only one or two steps. It’s a fierce pursuit, so it couldn’t be more twisted. I forced myself to hold my breath that was filling up to the tip of my chin.
“It’s big, it’s an illusion…… !”
The skin burned by low temperatures is itchy. My thighs are sore and my calves are throbbing. More than anything, it hurts so much that my heart feels like it’s about to explode. But I didn’t want to see anyone die because of me. The wind made my body, which had reached its limit, continue to run.
“Seo Jeong-woo!”
In front of me, an elf jumped out of the stairs I was aiming for.
“I am Private First Class Günzburg belonging to the Magic Gunners!”
The distance with him was thirty steps based on my stride. Considering that I was currently running at full speed, I was able to close the distance within two seconds. As soon as he appeared, I threw the Köchel shotgun he was holding in his left hand into the air in front of me.
And in that short time, I aimed the grenade launcher attached to my left arm.
“It’s mother’s revenge!”
The muzzles of Günzburg and I spewed flames at the same time. But nothing happened between us. Unlike him, who was preoccupied with surprise attacks, I risked my life. When 1 second passed, I grabbed the gun I had already thrown into the air again, and when 2 seconds passed, I closed the distance sufficiently.
“I thought it would open with magic!”
“Absorption bomb…… !”
The dislocated right shoulder needs to be adjusted. Only then can the battle continue.
Boom! I bumped into Günzburg. With the right shoulder in front, he fixed the dislocation with a semi-aggression. The pain was indescribable, but it didn’t matter. Because I didn’t have time to pay attention to that. I went straight into the mount and put the muzzle under the guy’s chin.
“Do you think I came unprepared?”
“Oil-tongsu-gun.”
“The odds were half. If it wasn’t for Matan, it would have been your victory.”
“How can there be ifs in a war?”
“Disarm immediately.”
“Nope?”
Saying that, Günzburg held my gun.
“Shit, stop it…… !”
Compassion is forbidden. I have no choice but to pull the trigger.
“Captain, I’m leaving too…….”
But why is it so hard?
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Private First Class Günzburg took his own life as soon as the defeat loomed. The iron-clad high-explosive shells made his head like a broken watermelon, just like in the case of Mateus. I was once again covered in blood, flesh, and brains.
It was disastrous. But couldn’t stop.
Blue light emanated from Günzburg’s corpse. It was the usual memory overflow magic. They are like organisms. Each of them was Julich, Matheus, and Günzburg. The memories of the first class soldier, who seemed to be the youngest in the ranks, informed everyone of the short conversation I had with me and my current location.
― I thought it would open with magic!
― Absorption bomb…… !
Is this the magic bullet shooter? Is it Bernhard’s hidden power? I heard that Beatrix was the one who organized the impossible 0 Corps. I heard that it was Beatrix who grafted this forbidden, which should be avoided, with the military.
―Captain, I’m leaving too…….
Someone else dies
“Ugh, wow!”
Even if you scream at the car in minutes, what will change? I barely swallowed the upheaval and searched for Günzburg’s bosom. He took the bullet belt he had and quickly climbed his stairs. I checked the types of bullets with all kinds of magic, from memory bullets with flood magic to freezing bullets, explosive bullets, regeneration bullets, flame bullets and pollution bullets.
Bang! Tata Tang!
After confirming my location, the Alpha Dong gunners fire in unison again. Some are freezing bullets, some are explosive bullets. The harmony between the hot and cold attributes was truly exquisite, and it worked as if either side was going to devour me.
Bang! Tata Tang!
It’s time for the mole hunt. It’s a pity, but I’m the one being hunted this time. But as a roe deer escapes the hunter’s hand. As a bird escapes the hand of the nether. That’s how I’ll get out of this crisis. So I will save myself.
This is my own proverb and oath.
Even if I had to burn my entire body, I would have to see the end.
So run.
…… Run!
