Genius Archer's Streaming

Season 3: Chapter 30: Stream Sniper (1)

Hannah made a gesture and seemed a bit flustered.

"Let's go."

She could not refuse the elite agent’s firm command to depart.

— Special Ability: Doesn't say things twice

— Wow LOL

— Why do NPCs always end up pitiful whenever he plays a game...

— Special Ability: He just goes

"Sigh."

Hannah looked forward again. She adjusted her sunglasses and spoke, "Let's start the operation."

As the car started, jazz music that seemed straight out of a 1980s or 1990s spy movie played through the speakers.

— Wow~

— The driver knows what's up

— Haha, the driver was a background music wizard!

— Let's go!

The ambiance of the game, set in the heart of New York City, matched well with the people's reactions.

Hannah continued her operation briefing against this musical backdrop, "We won't be chasing them directly, but will maintain a distance that allows for entry as soon as drone and satellite surveillance confirms a path suitable for stealth infiltration."

The plan was not to engage in a car chase, but to maintain a distance and look for angles to infiltrate.

"So... it might be good to change your firearms now."

Almond had chosen firearms that absolutely could not be concealed. Indeed, they were too large and practically advertised, “I came here to kill everyone!”

"... Hmm," Almond pondered for a moment.

If the operation would proceed like this, brute forcing wouldn't work.

"I recommend a bulletproof umbrella shotgun, a pen taser, and a high-density face mask for infiltration purposes…" Hannah suggested while he was still considering listening to her.

"What?"

Almond spotted a suspicious vehicle.

'Why are they so close?'

Why was a vehicle that wasn't a taxi driving so close?

'Guns...!'

Was there someone with a gun in the passenger seat?

Almond immediately rolled down the window.

Ziiing.

Startled, the people in the other vehicle also opened their windows and tried to mount a gun.

"Agent, sir!"

Hannah tried to stop him, but it was too late.

"Ten thousand."

Bang!

Almond fired the pistol he had drawn. A bullet struck the head of the person in the passenger seat, killing him.

— Wow

— One shot, one kill

— People die when they are shot

— Amazing

— Ten thousand LOL LOL LOL

Almond was pleased with his quick response.

"Agent! Those... those people didn't know we were in this car!"

It seemed he wasn’t supposed to kill them.

"?"

"They were just the escort vehicles of the enemies following us from a distance. They didn't know about our existence."

They didn't know? Were they just passing by?

"Well, now they know. Reinforcements will be swarming in."

“Sigh,” Hannah sighed and lamented.

'More are coming?'

Given the per-kill mission, Almond felt rather pleased.

— The corners of his mouth are rising LOL

— Holding back laughter lv.99

— He seems to be holding back his laughter or is it just me?

— Fact: Nutty devil getting excited LOL

"It's not that I'm laughing…"

Almond was about to clarify.

Crash!!!

The enemy was counterattacking and shattered the driver's side window. The driver instantly died.

"!?"

Screeeeech...!

Suddenly, the car swayed violently from side to side.

Thump!

Almond was pushed against the car wall.

Blaaaam!

Cars on both sides honked their horns in surprise.

— Wow

— What's happening?

— Wow, that scared me

Even amid the chaos, Hannah lunged to grab the steering wheel.

Click!

She reached out and managed to activate autonomous driving.

"I've activated autonomous driving for now. Agent, please wear your earpiece and we'll proceed with an urgent change of plans."

"Isn't this supposed to be bulletproof glass..." Almond murmured incredulously, not expecting the window to be breached so easily.

A too realistic response came back, "We don't have the budget."

— Startup Assassination Company LOL

— Can't help it then LOL

— It reeks of budget cuts, so sad ??

— Might as well rob a bank, guys LOL

"With the driver dead, I will take over the driving."

Hannah opened the driver's door, threw out the driver's body, and fully seated herself in the driver's seat.

"Agent, I've transmitted the expected location of the enemy. The recommended weapons are..." She glanced in the rearview mirror momentarily and changed her suggestion. "You might as well do what you think is best."

— Giving up LOL

— She's smart

— Giving up makes life easier~

— LOL LOL LOL

Ziiing.

Enemy locations popped up in Almond's view.

"Huh? There are so many?"

Looking outside, some of the enemies had their upper bodies out of the sunroofs, openly aiming their guns. It seemed they were ready for a showdown.

"We were supposed to assassinate quietly. Why are they being so open? Is it because we don't have money…?"

While they had prepared thoroughly to carry out the operation covertly, the opposition was provocatively upfront. Wasn’t that blatantly unfair?

"But you shot first!"

— LOL LOL LOL LOL

— LMAO

— Exactly

— He shoots first and then...

— LOL, explosion

Almond nodded and responded, "This is why Grandma said to go to a big corporation."

— LOL

— Blaming the small company?

— LOL LOL

After murmuring that, Almond mounted a large gun that looked good for rapid fire. The instructions appeared in a pop-up window next to him.

"Once you're ready, we'll open the rear door of the van. Please intercept them all."

— Do it!

— LOL, Almond, do it

— At least the per-kill mission got easier LOL

Clang!

Almond fixed the machine gun to the floor.

'The black sedan on the left.'

He brought his eye to the scope and calmly placed his index finger over the trigger. Although it was incomparably larger than the pistols or rifles he had used before, the fact that it was fixed to the floor made it more stable.

"Ready."

"Roger."

Hannah, somewhat perplexed, cranked up the speaker volume to the maximum and pulled the door open.

— What's with the music wizard? LOL

— Wow

— Mood

— Spy + Jazz + Handsome = Bliss

Clunk!

The rear door of the van began to open.

Hannah shouted amid the lively music, "The enemies will start shooting at us immediately. I'll zigzag among civilian cars. Aim well in between."

Thud.

Now, the door was fully open. Hannah's prediction was correct. The enemies simultaneously opened fire.

Ratatatatatatatatatata!

"It's shaky."

Hannah deftly turned the steering wheel, making the enemies' gunfire largely ineffective. They seemed to want to avoid civilian casualties too and hesitated to fire as she drove in front of civilian vehicles.

The same was true for Almond. His lens indicated that civilians were [Absolutely off-limits for shooting].

"Now!"

Hannah signaled that she was about to re-enter the shooting zone and jerked the steering wheel.

Screeeeech!

The enemies popped their heads out again.

'Left sedan.'

Almond quickly spotted them and held his breath, pressing his eye to the scope.

'Just a bit more...'

Once more of the enemy appeared, the car moved to the left.

'That's it.'

His finger firmly pressed the trigger.

Ratatatatatatatatatata!!!!

"!"

The machine gun created an enormous noise and recoil as it obliterated the enemy.

Boom!

The car turned into a hive and flew off.

Screeeeeech!

Hannah quickly maneuvered the vehicle back among civilian cars.

— Wow!

— What driving skills

— Should've been driving from the start LOL

— K-Taxi level driving!

— Wow!

— Wow, action!

— They're really done for!

'What's this?'

Almond was amazed. The gun's violent recoil, heat, and corresponding destructive power were overly stimulating for him, who was used to shooting bows.

"I’m going again."

Screeeeech!

Hannah sharply turned the steering wheel once more. Aligned with her movements, Almond pulled the trigger.

Ratatat! Tat!

Even as his vision blurred, his concentration did not waver.

Ping! Ting!

While the enemy bullets bounced off their van, Almond's bullets hit their targets accurately.

Hannah, catching a glimpse of him in the rearview mirror, opened her mouth in awe.

"What? Aren't you taking any hits?!"

Caught off guard, Hannah looked forward again and turned the steering wheel.

"Ah, yes! Agent."

Screeeeech!

***

Meanwhile, a group of onlookers were appalled each time Hannah turned the steering wheel.

"Ah... Ahhh..."

"Hey, hey... why is the score like this?"

They were the staff at the Hitman Simulator booth.

"The ones just passing by. He's killing them all."

Indeed, these enemies had been omitted from their calculations. Usually, these enemies would have just passed by.

These were fast-moving enemy agents, but Almond was shooting them all dead.

"Why is he killing them all unnecessarily?! Isn't it hard for him too?"

The answer was already coming through on the screen from Almond.

“Is it 200,000 won now!?”

“It’s 210,000 won~”

“Some crazy guy put a bounty for each kill...”

Almond kept killing because he earned more money every time he did.

Sigh, this changes everything, doesn't it!?”

“It sure does...”

Now the employees finally understood why Assistant Manager Park felt worried at first. Even if they went back and apologized to him, it wouldn't change the future. They had no basis to stop a streamer from taking on the challenge.

“Ugh...”

Their insides boiled with frustration.

“That’s 250,000 won~!”

“Now it’s 260,000 won~!”

Meanwhile, the money kept going up.

“Is this a taxi fare or what!?”

“... Even if you made a taxi out of a Ferrari, it wouldn’t go up this fast.”

“Is that team really composed of elite agents? Why are they fighting so poorly!”

They threw out a meaningless question in a desperate attempt to grasp at straws.

“Yes, they’re all elite agents. It’s not that they’re fighting poorly. It’s just that the opponent...”

It was no use. The computer never made mistakes. Only humans did. Just like the employees in this booth right now.

“Sigh...”

“It’s not over yet.”

“That’s true, but it’s already impossible to keep this up until the day after tomorrow.”

With the points Almond had accumulated so far, operating until the last day of G-Star was already impossible.

“Even if we’re signing an advertisement contract... is this really right?”

“There’s no need for the advertising contract if we don’t run out of points...”

The best scenario was for Almond to lose soon.

“Let’s see. The next mission is something Almond has never experienced before, so he might lose here.”

They still had a glimmer of hope due to a future hurdle.

***

Huff... huff... This is Agent Almond and Agent Hannah. All enemies have been eliminated,” Hannah reported while sweating on the steering wheel.

No more enemies were chasing them. Almond finally relaxed and sat down.

“Yes, we’re on the move.”

They parked their battered van in a corner of a construction site as instructed by the operator. Saying they parked it was rather a stretch. It was practically wrecked.

“Agent? We’ve tracked down the executive who ordered Agent A's assassination. As you just experienced, approaching closely will trigger their radar...”

Clang.

Hannah opened the weapon locker and revealed a long, sleek gun.

“... It’s a sniping mission.”

She handed him the sniper rifle.

— Wow

— A sniper, awesome

— A sniper, wow

— Here comes the sniper!

— Real sniper action

“The farther you shoot from, the higher the mission success rate. Please shoot from outside the enemy's radar range.”

“From far away...”

Almond wondered how far it needed to be. He had never tried sniping before, so he had no idea. Then—

[BigSon has registered a mission!]

[1,000 won per meter!]

— BigSon's mission, wow

— 1,000 won per meter, lol

— Is this gasoline?

— LOL

— Awesome

— 500 meters would be 500,000 won?

— BigSon is working hard today, lol

BigSon offered an incredible mission that would pay him per meter for the sniping distance.

“Hannah.”

“Yes, Agent.”

“What’s the record for the longest distance?”
