Entering the shooting range's domed building, I was greeted by a familiar robotic voice that confirmed my identity as Morse Scott. Smartwatch in hand, I walked toward one of the ten doors that led to the training room. Upon entering the training room, I found myself standing in the center of a circular space with a stand for shooting practice. The room was simple, but its magical shooting range added an intriguing change to the usual shooting experience. I held up my smartwatch and initialized my goal. "Five," I said firmly. "Choose the difficulty of the training." “You can choose from stage one to stage nine.” Considering my current strength and the potential of my characteristics, I decided to challenge myself and chose the first stage. It doesn't matter what my strength is or how much my characteristics can help me. After all, I am still a novice. "Phase one," I muttered. In an instant, blue objects emerged from the ground and formed a circle around me. They were larger and more monster-like than ordinary moles. I readied my bow and arrow, nocked it, and focused on the insect. I tensed my muscles, repeated her movements, and aimed at the mole. The mole was moving at a very fast speed, but in my eyes, its speed was quite slow. Thanks to my characteristic [Perception Insight], I could easily see their movements, because just from his body movements, I could tell where he was going to move.
"Let me try the strength of ordinary arrows first." Thinking of this, he fired an ordinary arrow that had not been enhanced in any way. 'Whoosh' 'Bang' Since this was the first stage, the arrow hit the target easily. However, since my skills still needed time to improve, I didn't kill it. The arrow entered the mole's leg. 'Whoosh' I fired another arrow, and this time I managed to hit it in the chest, making it disappear. “I feel like I’m getting the hang of this,” I thought to myself. The first arrow missed because I felt like I wasn’t holding the bow properly, but the second arrow, my instinct told me I could hit it. The moles were not frightened by the sight, but approached me at a very fast speed. Although they were made of pure mana, they still made me feel a little disgusted. And so I kept shooting arrows until there were no more moles on the ground. “Hmm… not bad.” I thought to myself. Although this was my first time using a bow and arrow, and my posture was not very good, but with my unique vision, it was not difficult for me to successfully complete the first stage. "Ding! The first phase of shooting training is over. New record: 1 minute and 32 seconds." Seeing the panel in front of me, I looked at the bow. Let's try the second stage. I thought while increasing the difficulty. "Choose the difficulty of the training." "Phase Two". This time, five more moles appeared in front of me, but this time the aura around them was stronger. I focused my attention and infused the arrow with mana through my [Moon] attribute. When I released the arrow, it shone with a silver-blue light and streaked through the air with greater speed and accuracy. 'Whoosh' The reinforced arrow pierced a charging mole, causing it to disappear in a silver-blue glow. The remaining moles continued to charge at me, and I continued to shoot, each shot accurate and powerful because of the moon mana infused into the arrows. As I shot each target, I could feel the moon mana flowing through my body, guiding my aim and enhancing my perception.
This was a strange feeling I didn't have when using the dagger, as if the moon mana itself was guiding me how to enhance my arrows and how to apply my mana to the arrows. Despite the mole rats' increased abilities, they were no match for my newfound marksmanship and the enhanced effects of my traits. Soon, the last of the mole rats disappeared, and silence fell over the training room. "Ding! The second phase of shooting training is over. New record: 1 minute and 10 seconds." I looked at the panel and was pleased with my progress. My time was significantly higher than in the first stage, and it was all thanks to [Moon]. "Ding! The second phase of shooting training is over. New record!" "Ding! The second phase of shooting training is over!" "bite!" ...... With each training session, I could feel myself getting stronger and more in tune with the power of the moon. I felt I had a pretty good talent for this, and my gaze and attention never lost focus. The dagger is also a good weapon, and I think I am not bad at it, but for now, the bow suits me better. "Morse never considered using a bow and arrow before, but now it seems that this is where I have the greatest talent." He thought to himself as he saw the smooth movements. While I haven't mastered any bow-related feats yet, the 'Weapon Master' class is playing its part. However, I can't belittle myself. I should also try the gun now. With this thought in mind, I left the training room and walked towards the reception again. There, I saw Alice practicing with a bow, with beads of sweat dripping down her face. 'Whoosh' Just as I was passing by, suddenly, an arrow shot through the dummy. 'Bang' An explosion followed. "Hmm... so she can use this skill now." This is a skill called [Explosive Arrow]. It is a common skill that can infuse the arrow with fire attribute. Passing her, I walked over to the receptionist and picked up the gun. This is a Glock-like pistol. For most people, it is a basic weapon with low recoil and a fast rate of fire. Back in the room, I walked through the same ten doors and arrived at the private training ground. “How many goals do you want?” "Eight." "Please select the difficulty of the training." "Phase 2" The moment the command was completed, eight moles appeared around me.
I raised my gun and aimed at the monster, while at the same time using my magic power to strengthen the bullets in the gun. Now, there is no need to test the damage of weapons. After all, the base damage of the Glock pistol is enough to kill the first stage monster with one shot. But this is not the case in the second phase. As a player who has played shooting games, I know the base damage of guns. It is enough to kill the first stage monsters with one shot, but not enough to kill the second stage monsters with one shot. Feeling the cold metal on my hand, I concentrated my magic power, injected the bullet in the gun with [Moon], and quickly shot at the charging mole. 'Bang' The monsters moved just as fast as before, but in a different pattern. However, my quirk gave me excellent vision when I pressed the trigger quickly. 'Bang, bang, bang' The gun had an extremely high rate of fire, allowing me to fire in rapid succession. Each bullet hit its mark accurately, causing the moles to disappear one by one. The moles proved to be no match for the power of the Moon, and they fell one after another as I kept my aim steady. The gun had very little recoil, making it easy to control and shoot accurately. In just three seconds, the eight moles disappeared, and the training room fell into silence again. I looked at the new record on the panel. "Ding! The second phase of shooting training is over. New record: 3 seconds." This is very different from a bow and arrow. A gun can shoot very quickly. “But the difference lies in the amount of dharma one can put into a gun bullet.” One can infuse large amounts of mana into arrows made of special metals, or even conjure an arrow out of pure mana, but this is not the case with guns. Or rather, it has never been seen before. "Looks like I can request additional weapons testing now." Because the academy does not allow students to blindly change weapons or learn different weapons. Every time a weapon is changed, a test is required. This is why the students can only use a simple weapon in the end.
