Chapter 3171 Sharpshooter
I'm disappointed, but it doesn't mean that magicians can't be assassins.
In fact, magicians can be assassins, and they can be called good assassin candidates.
Compared to melee assassins, magicians do not have the agility and strong reflexes.
Compared to long-range shooters, magicians do not have the ability to shoot accurately at ultra-long ranges, nor do they have an insight called dynamic vision.
But the advantage of the mage assassin is that he can condense magic anytime and anywhere to carry out mid-range assassinations.
What is a mid-range assassination? It means an assassination from a hundred meters away or within a thousand meters.
This is calculated based on the straight line distance, which is the shortest distance between the target and the assassin.
Since magic does not have many limitations and can even ignore the influence of wind direction, it can basically be classified as a directional straight-line attack.
As long as the aim is correct, almost every hit will be successful.
The magician's crosshair is his eyes.
In other words, as long as the eyes are locked on the target, the possibility of escape is infinitely close to zero.
Of course, the above is only if there is no mental arithmetic and intentional calculation.
Moreover, magicians have another advantage as an assassin, and that is the amount of ammunition.
The vast majority of magicians who can become assassins have an astonishing amount of magic power in their bodies.
However, the magic value required for the assassination magic they release is very small. In other words, any qualified magician assassin has a huge amount of ammunition.
And there is another key point, related to the rumors circulating among many low-level adventurers - that is, magicians can only release magic one by one.
In fact, excellent magicians are never limited by the number of magic spells.
The amount of magic they can accumulate at one time is related to their own strength and understanding of magic.
This can be seen from the difference between Bai Yunying and Xiao Remi.
Xiao Remi can only accumulate two magic spells at most at a time, but Bai Yunying can accumulate more than four magic spells at a time, and at least two of these four magic spells are large-scale and highly offensive magic. Bai Yunying can even specially give Keep a teleportation magic for yourself for escape.
For example, in the duel with Emily, Bai Yunying accumulated three types of magic at the same time. One was used for attack and was a small magic. The second was for defense and was a large magic. The third was for Those who escaped were also using large-scale magic.
It can be seen from this that the real magician assassin is quite difficult and terrifying.
However, the magician assassins in the demon world actually gave up their mid-range advantage and turned to short-range attacks as their main attack method. This is very disappointing.
Of course, some people will also say, what’s wrong with melee mages? Who told you that melee mages are not strong?
I'm not saying that mages are not strong in close combat, but I am saying that mages are more suitable for mid-range attacks than melee combat. Especially for assassins who can kill with one hit, it is the stupidest behavior to sacrifice the near for the far.
After throwing the dead assassin out of the room, I carried the dishes, entered the kitchen, and started preparing breakfast.
At the dining table, the blue witch was holding Tuo Tuo and looking at me with a resentful look on her face.
This is the 'she's hungry' signal.
Smiling disapprovingly, I retracted my head and started chopping vegetables.
After finishing the dishes, I was walking out with the plate. Before I had taken five steps, I suddenly smelled the sound of wind and stopped immediately.
The next second, the sound of breaking glass was heard, and at the same time, a black round object passed by me and hit the wall hard, making a muffled sound.
Buckshot?
He turned his head and looked out the window, but saw no one. He thought that the assassin had already hidden himself.
"I didn't expect that there are sharpshooters in the demon world."
Putting the plate on the dining table, he turned back to serve the rice, brought it over again, and then had breakfast together.
After breakfast, I carried the plate into the kitchen, washed the dishes, went to the hall, took the lead bullet off the wall, held it on my fingertips and observed it carefully.
This is a silver lead bullet, a lead-silver mixed metal, which increases its plasticity.
I pressed my fingers slightly, and there was a crunching sound. I crushed the lead bullet, then rubbed it into powder.
"The compression process is good," I praised.
"What is this?" The blue witch burped and came to me idly, squatting down and carefully observing the powder scattered on her fingertips.
"Bullets," I said, "are ammunition for firearms. Do you know about firearms, right?"
"I know," the blue witch said, "I heard the red witch say that firearms are very powerful weapons. She once had a friend who was an expert in using firearms, and he was also an imaginative genius. He once tried to use magic to I poured it into the bullet, but because I was too impatient and didn't learn well, I failed to control the power of the bullet well, and the magic workshop was blown up during the test firing."
"There is such an interesting guy?" I asked in surprise: "Do you know that person's name?"
"I know," said the blue witch, "the red witch often mentions her name and says her name is Kelly."
"Kelly?!"
"Yes, what's wrong?" The blue witch looked at me curiously.
"Uh, Kelly, she is my fiancée's ancestor."
"Yeah, that's interesting." The blue witch covered her mouth and snickered: "Then if I go back with you, will your fiancée also have to call me ancestor?"
"To be honest, not only she, but also I have to call you ancestor. After all, you are a girl who is tens of millions of years old."
Saying this, I couldn't help showing a sly smile.
"Look for a fight!" The blue witch patted my head: "I will always be sixteen years old and a flower!"
"Okay, okay, you're always sixteen."
I begged for mercy, but felt resentful in my heart: I don’t know how many times sixteen years old, hum.
After that, Blue Witch and I went shopping together with Tuo Tuo.
On the way, we met several more waves of assassins, but we killed them all easily.
Until dusk, we strolled to the City Lord's Mansion and knocked on the other party's door: "Please give this to the City Lord."
Saying this, I took out a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into the guard's hand without anyone noticing.
The guard weighed it, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Wait."
Then he quickly entered the house.
What I gave the guard was a piece of paper with my name written on it and my intention to talk to the city lord.
I believe that after today's failed assassination, the city lord Yuanyuan must have guessed my strength and will not refuse to meet me.
Sure enough, after a while, the guard completed his mission and took a handwriting to announce my entry into the house.
When I entered the mansion, a guard wanted to hand over my sword. I stopped and asked the guard with a smile: "Has the Lord of the City issued an order to hand over my sword?"
"No," the visitor said arrogantly, "but anyone who enters the City Lord's Mansion must turn in their weapons."
"What if I don't cooperate?" I asked with a smile, "Are you going to fight me?"
