From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 359 - 262: New Skill_2

Besides this,

there was also information about the First Knight of the Round Table Knight Mercenary Organization in the record.

The current First Knight of the Round Table Knight Mercenary Organization is called "Modred."

The record contains Modred’s strength data, level 32, known skills include Shadow Raid, Knight Protection, and Commanding Will, with a known class of [Shadow Knight].

Just by looking at these combat data, it can be confirmed that this First Knight of the Round Table Knights Mercenary Corps indeed possesses peak combat power.

These skill records are merely the known parts.

There are certainly unknown abilities as well.

Moreover, the update on this record was last month.

A month has passed, so how much Modred’s strength has improved is hard to say.

However, Modred is not stationed at the Thames Base, meaning that unless the operation actively seeks him out, there won’t be an encounter with him.

Besides Modred, there’s another tough superpower user at the Thames Base of the Round Table Knights, named Harris Bob.

Harris Bob is a sniper, known as the top sniper in the Lion Heart Empire; he once ended a Lord Level Great Demon from three kilometers away in the Abyss World.

A Lord Level Great Demon’s level is necessarily above 30, and many even exceed level 35.

Sniping a Lord Level Great Demon from three kilometers away is an extremely frightening feat.

At a distance of three kilometers, a person would appear as tiny as a grain of rice to the naked eye.

An average sniper, being able to hit a target from a kilometer away, is already exceptional.

The ability to hit from a distance of three kilometers is almost unimaginable, and one wonders what kind of skill would allow such a feat.

Moreover, three kilometers exceed the scouting range of most superpower users with the perception system.

Even Su Muyu would have difficulty scouting targets three kilometers away, unless she sends a Chongming Bird to scout.

However, without knowing the approximate location of the sniper, it is impossible to constantly monitor such a distant range. freёnovelkiss.com

Therefore, the over-the-horizon sniping capability of Harris Bob is extremely difficult to deal with.

Especially in a sniper duel, if one can shoot from a distance that is twice that of the opponent, it offers a crushing level of superiority.

Besides this, this Harris Bob has another nickname called the Ghost Sniper, known for his elusive appearances.

The record conjectures that he possesses both Concealing and Camouflaging Skills, but it’s just a conjecture without confirmation.

After reviewing the data on this Ghost Sniper Harris Bob, Lin Zeyu furrowed his brows and asked, "Is this information real? Sniping a Great Demon from three kilometers away, you’re joking, right?"

Because he is also a sniper, and additionally, he is one of the top snipers at this stage, with all skills enhanced for sniping.

Yet, he can only ensure stable sniping from a distance of 1000 meters now; beyond 1000 meters, the hit rate drops.

At 1500 meters, he can still achieve a relatively high hit rate with calm focusing.

For a distance of 3000 meters, hitting the target would solely depend on luck.

Therefore, seeing the sniping distance of 3000 meters documented for Harris Bob, he found it implausible.

Mainly because he is reluctant to accept that someone has a sniping range farther than his.

Indeed, before the Abyss Descent, there were snipers who could hit targets 1500 meters away.

However, that was considered the maximum record for sniping distance, only occasionally hitting the target, without ensuring a high hit rate.

In the actual combats of the Abyss Era, snipers must ensure a very high hit rate to secure victory in battles.

This differs from the situation before the Abyss Descent.

Before the Abyss Descent, snipers could generally shoot at targets one kilometer away from a safe position; even if they missed, the opponent would hardly be able to close in and retaliate.

The Abyss Era is different as high-speed superpower users could cross two to three kilometers easily.

For someone like Lu Heng, a three-kilometer distance is merely a matter of seconds.

Thus, snipers basically have only one chance to shoot; if they miss, they are in danger.

...

After discussing, Lu Heng and his two companions set the departure time.

Since the opponent is tough, it’s best to enhance their combat power before departing.

Su Muyu obtained a new Skill Slot in the last Abyss Battlefield, bringing her total Skill Slot Number to seven.

However, she hasn’t used this new Skill Slot yet, so she currently still has six skills.

During this period, all three were on the lookout for suitable Skill Crystal Cores but haven’t found any satisfactory ones.

At Su Muyu’s current level, ordinary Skill Crystal Cores provide little enhancement, as her existing skills cover various abilities, making it difficult to find suitable new skills.

Moreover, the major forces that have obtained Advanced Skill Crystal Cores rarely put them up for sale.

With departure for the Lion Heart Empire in just a couple of days, it would be best if Su Muyu could acquire her seventh skill before setting off.

Since suitable ones can’t be found on the market, they had to think of another way.

Lu Heng contacted the Dragon Might Mercenary Base, requesting a list of Advanced Skill Crystal Cores.

Last time they visited the Dragon Might Mercenary Base, Lu Heng and his companions were appointed as Honorary Group Leaders, so getting a list of Skill Crystal Cores wasn’t difficult.

Originally just trying their luck, they indeed found a very suitable Skill Crystal Core [Energy Wave Sensing] after reviewing the list.

[Energy Wave Sensing: Enhances the skill holder’s sensitivity to energy fluctuations, allowing them to keenly capture energy fluctuations within a certain range and distinguish energy levels. Sensing range = 30×Perception Attribute; Skill Level: B.]
