The sounds of gunfire rang out in the dungeon; it wasn't even a challenge, each bullet was strong enough to pierce their skin without any issue.
If I had to guess, this weapon was comparable to that of an S-Rank, and bringing something like that to an A-Rank dungeon... the outcome was already obvious.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The exp was pretty much endless at this point, even I couldn't believe the progress I was making.
[Level: 19]
But of course... all good things had to come to an end.
THCK!
My bullets finally stopped working.
It was completely different from the wyrms... this time, it was an orc, but not the usual orc that you would expect.
Instead... they kept the theme of the fiery wyrms and orcs who wore armor made of fire itself.
[Hellborne Orc: A-Rank]
'An A-Rank... guess I overestimated my arsenal.'
I laugh, turns out my initial guess was stupidly wrong, because at this point, everything about me was a literal A-Rank, even my weapon was now confirmed to be one.
'Let's see...'
While the orc was wearing something akin to living fire, it still followed the same logic as metal.
So swords and anything of that kind were completely null.
[Mace]
This works...
[Chrono Blink]
BANG!
I met its shield held on, but just as expected, an A-Rank monster against an A-Rank hunter was an equal match; I couldn't overpower it immediately, even with the correct weapon choice.
"Crap..."
FWISH!
[Chrono Blink]
'That was close!'
[Chrono Blink]
BANG!
I managed to find an opening behind its back, hitting it as hard as I could.
[Time Detonation]
[Hourglass Edge]
The first strike barely did anything to the orc, but the moment the time detonation was activated, that was a completely different story.
GROWL!
The orc writhed in pain.
[Chrono Blink]
[Time Detonation]
I skipped the time it took for me to reach its head with my mace, making dodging or blocking it nearly impossible, as I can literally skip time where the outcome I wanted is guaranteed to happen.
A slow-moving orc was basically screwed.
BANG!
...
BANG!
The second blow triggered, and with it, the orc fell to the ground, the floor itself cratering from its weight.
"I could get used to that..."
A melee fighter with the ability to create guaranteed hits without any way to dodge them? It was far better than shooting everything from afar.
Not only was it more effective, but it was also ridiculously fun.
[Level Up!]
[Level: 20]
GROWL!
I didn't even get a chance to invest my stats as more orcs came, all attracted to the death of their own.
Ten of them... all A-Ranks, usually, I would be screwed.
But... this arsenal was a complete cheat code.
[Smoke Bomb]
FWISH!
I threw it to the ground, covering the entire dungeon hallway in a thick smoke that even made it impossible for me to see.
But I didn't need to.
[Frost Bomb]
Because I just figured out that an arsenal actually meant a literal arsenal.
As long as it was a weapon... anything was possible.
[Chrono Blink]
I threw the bomb to where the orcs were gathered, and quickly retreated before it exploded with my blink.
CRASH!
The sounds of ice exploding were absolutely deafening, the explosion itself clearing the smoke from the earlier smoke bomb.
But of course, that wasn't enough, the orcs were now encased with ice.
But their armor was still burning; it was a temporary prison until they thawed through it.
[Mace]
But I'd be an idiot if I didn't kill them before that happened.
[Chrono Blink]
[Chrono Blink]
[Chrono Blink]
I managed to kill three until the rest had escaped their icy prison, and it looks like they absolutely hated it.
FLASH!
The orcs suddenly smashed the ground, a torrent of fire exploding out from it and homing directly on me.
It looks like they were also capable of magic.
[Chrono Blink]
[Chrono Blink]
I tried to dodge it, but it just kept on chasing me, with the orc that was controlling it just kept on laughing.
'Bastard!'
[Handgun]
BANG!
One well-placed shot to its eye was enough to shut it up, and with it, its focus on the fiery torrent also stopped.
But now I was surrounded, the endless dodging distracting me from the rest of the orcs who began to encircle me.
But...
I could just easily teleport away.
[Chrono Blink]
[Smoke Bomb]
"Suckers..." I grinned, detonating it.
Now then... should I just rinse and repeat?
[Frost Bomb]
"Definitely..."
