Pick Me Up Infinite Gacha! - P.M.U Chapter 208: Do Not Hit Even With Flowers (6) (Part 2)

Jenna crouched low, pulling her bowstring to the limit.

A large steel arrow was nocked.

Jenna’s eyes glowed red.

[Unique skill, ‘Steel Storm’ activated!]

Whoosh!

Wind wrapped around the arrowhead, and the arrow shot out with terrifying speed.

A light shockwave brushed my face.

The 70 cm long steel arrow traced an arc.

Splat!

Several cavalrymen at the forefront were cut down along with their horses.

The remains of the horse and human bodies soared meters into the air.

“Done. Let’s go!”

Jenna slung her bow over her shoulder.

The cavalry, their formation broken, fell like bundles of straw.

‘To work with me, you have to be at least this good.’

I smirked and moved toward the fortress.

Jenna’s precise sniping had surpassed the level of ballistae, akin to cannon fire.

“Take them out first!”

I heard shouts from the fortress walls.

It seems the arrow we just fired had attracted their attention.

Archers, ballistae, and cannons aimed our way.

Thump!

A large arrow shot from a ballista.

“Hmph.”

Velkist swung his sword.

The ballista arrow split perfectly in half and flew to either side.

Then, a cannon about to fire exploded.

Jenna had lodged an arrow into the barrel just before it fired.

“Go first.”

Velkist dodged the rain of arrows like a ghost and stuck to the fortress wall.

Then he leaped vertically up the wall.

Soon, bodies began to rain down from the wall.

“I’ll go too!”

Jenna alternately pushed off the wall and the air, jumping up.

“……”

I looked up.

The Lucette had followed us and was floating above.

<Hey… are you the same humans as us? Did you take some weird drug or develop superpowers?>

This brat, so noisy.

<Should I stay here?>

“No, take the targeting position.”

<Uh, it looks like you’re doing fine on your own…>

I moved to the side.

A pile of soldier corpses fell where I had been standing.

The fortress’s defensive forces ignored the Lucette.

Because just two people were wreaking havoc inside the fortress.

“Shoot the gate. I need to get in.”

<Ahem.>

There was a cough.

<Didn’t these two just jump over? Can’t you follow up…?>

“……”

<Really?>

“What’s your name?”

Boom!

The Lucette’s cannon fired, making a small hole in the gate.

<Ahahaha, I’ll cover you!>

The Lucette ascended.

‘Really funny.’

I grabbed the small hole with my hand and widened it.

The reinforced wooden planks spread apart, creating a gap.

I moved through it. Inside, numerous troops were moving about.

Reinforcements were pouring out of the buildings inside.

Adilung’s doing, no doubt.

They seemed to be supplying personnel through dimensional gates.

These guys’ estimated levels were between 10 and 20.

They hadn’t received proper training.

They’re just numbers.

‘Still, there must be around a thousand.’

They’re buying time until the vigilantes arrive.

“Stop them! By any means necessary!”

A young man in vigilante attire shouted from a second-floor watchtower.

I soared up in an instant, kicking the walls, buildings, and watchtower railings next to me.

“Gasp!”

Crack.

Grabbing his neck, he died instantly.

I stood in the watchtower and looked around.

Jenna and Velkist were sweeping away the troops on the walls like a broom.

<You hypocrites! Got you now!>

Through the gap in the gate, I saw the harbor.

It was in flames with smoke rising.

Dozens of armed heroes descended from airships with red flags.

<Equality? Peace? Screw that!>

<Haha! That’s music to my ears!>

I looked behind the fortress, at the steep cliff.

Airships were stationed at the top, and heroes with swords and spears were descending towards the fortress.

Of course, they weren’t Silver Star.

‘It wasn’t just one.’

Bang! Boom boom!

The sound of distant cannon fire tickled my ears.

A fleet battle seemed to be underway somewhere.

‘There must be about ten hunters.’

They seemed to have set their sights on us.

Airships carrying raiders were landing all over the ruins, ready to fill the entire field.

They killed anyone who met their eyes and approached the crystal.

This is how it should be.

Ruins are supposed to be like this.

They hadn’t quit but were waiting for the right moment.

‘It’s not one-on-one-on-one…’

How many against how many?

I don’t know.

Ping!

I tilted my head.

An arrow grazed my cheek.

“……”

A sniper descending the cliff outside the fortress had shot at me.

If you receive a gift, you should return it.

I took a wind-up stance and threw my dagger.

The dagger embedded itself in the forehead of the archer 100 meters away.

‘Of course…’

We will win.
