Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

It had been an hour since Jake's first kill in the dungeon.

Killing various players had been quite fruitful, as Jake picked up valuable experience and could see more of the players' skills and knowledge about the game world's mechanics.

He learned that all classes had some sort of movement skill.

While tanks and swordsmen's movement techniques didn't breach the thin line between realism and fantasy, classes like mages and thieves could close distances with teleportation.

It must have been surreal and extraordinary to achieve something like that. It should have boiled the blood of even the most dreary players.

'It's really an advanced skill that teaches people about fantasy's difficulties,' Jake's thoughts could be summarized in this one sentence.

Despite teleportation seeming like an easy skill to use, the difference between a newbie and a skilled one was as clear as day.

Jake had learned about it from Mary, but experiencing those differences first-hand was much more valuable. It steeled his resolve to practice his future skills more.

A few mages had been too easy to kill, while some could have used their mana step in such a good way that Jake couldn't have repeated his second shot and was forced to switch an angle.

This new experience caused Jake to mismatch his strength against the humanoid monsters.

[Condemned Wolf Scion Lv. 16 HP: 2125/2125 MP: 540/540]

A monster casually appeared in one of the corridors occupied by Jake's team.

It was the same humanoid little wolf Jake had seen numerous times already. He hasn't had a chance to fight them because the invisible zone conjured by Sin Blackberry was such a cheat that monsters couldn't have threatened them.

It had a low cooldown, with the only flaw that bumping into others was enough to break it.

Sin's subclass—healer—naturally raised her mana. With the plethora of expensive items, she could keep this invisible zone for weeks.

Jake stepped out of the zone.

He decided to level up and broaden his horizons.

Like in numerous other games, small existences often showcased high agility. The same mechanic applied to the humanoid wolf scion.

His size also made it difficult to hit him, but that mainly concerned range classes like mages or archers.

His trump card was that he could get onto his four and increase his speed even thrice! This always caught the new dungeon players off guard, including those prepared to face it.

None of it mattered to Jake.

His dexterity and strength stats exceeded the level sixteen monster, and his combination of The Perception Skill, Death's Lock, and Archer's Death Eye put the first monster onto a silver platter for him.

It took only one arrow for Jake to defeat the monster.

The poor wolf didn't even have a chance to get onto his four paws and show his higher speed!

He just died as the sharpest arrow penetrated through his tiny skull.

Wukong emerged from the shadows and picked up the intact but bloody arrow.

The gap between Jake and the monsters on the first floor was so huge that it was nothing to write home about.

He could save a lot of mana by just releasing his casual arrows at them!

It'd cost him a little more time, but that was nothing on the broader picture.

After that, the party continued their adventure to the second floor.

That was when Jake showed that he was quite a difficult man to placate. He wanted to test himself against the first floor's monsters' strongest mode, meaning he would hold himself back enough to see them on their four paws.

He was also so slow and meticulous.

He challenged one monster, then two, and three, all in careful order. He studied them diligently and took in as much experience as possible.

It could have been said that Jake took his words to heart, but he had always been this way.

Sin Blackberry didn't mind so much of it, but Prince was itching to fight more.

Alas, their current predicament meant they had to be on guard for any surprise attacks.

The guilds they had been fighting all this time were already notified of their presence here and their will to exact revenge. Many players with stolen, expensive equipment decided to ditch the dungeon.

It was impossible to take back what was theirs now.

The guilds in question also teamed up and would do everything in their power to defeat their enemies. Jake and others had already fought against an alliance of two guilds, which only added credibility to Jake's thoughts of smaller guilds working together to help the bigger guild's businesses.

It was fun to butt into their plans.

Jake couldn't lie about it.

A few minutes later, after the archer had killed a few monsters, the group of three found the first copper vein! It wasn't just a copper vein, as Jake could discern gleaming blue light alongside it!

This vein had more than just a copper!

He smiled, "Mining time!"

Prince nodded, "Oh! You noticed it fast! What's your subclass and title's grade? It doesn't seem like a huge vein, so we will have it done in fifteen minutes!"

Sin put her hand on her forehead and shook her head, 'That's torn it!'

She could tolerate Jake's requests, but this vein of copper had come out at such inconvenient timing that Sin couldn't help inwardly sighing and complaining.

She already wanted to be on the second floor.

Meanwhile, Jake surprised Prince.

"What are you doing, my dark horse?" Prince deeply looked into Jake's hands.

He hadn't taken out a pickax but a hammer and chisel first.

Of course, Jake's mask had been replaced by a miner's helmet! A gentle light blew away the darkness around the vein.

Jake smiled, "I'll make a few cracks to increase my mining's efficiency and speed. Want it too?"

"Ye," Prince curtly nodded. He also sounded less formal, which made Jake chuckle.

Jake turned around, "Want to help me, Wukong?"

Wukong nodded and smiled.

Jake had prepared a small hammer and chisel for him, too.

In this way, these two went around the vein and made a few cracks. Wukong may be a little monkey, but his strength was on par with Jake's, and he could really work well!

Prince was amazed by these two.

His admiration for Jake's preparation soared when his mining efficiency upped. He even saw his miner's proficiency bar going up as though it was on a race!

His pickax was, of course, expensive.

It had blessings to make him more productive and save him time.

That said, Jake's knowledge truly made this expensive pickax a good choice!

Prince grinned beneath his helmet as he swung the pickax.

He shouted, "It's a race, my dark horse! You should expect my pickax to be better quality, but you're not alone in this race! Let's see who cooks up more ores!"

"Fine!" Jake shouted roughly. He made a few signals to his summon and told him to make a few more cracks around their side at convenient intervals. Those helped Jake a lot!

Prince noticed it and narrowed his eyes.

He unleashed one of the strengthening skills!

He roared then, "Ora! Ora! Ora!"

Jake somewhat mimicked him as he picked up his pace, "Ora! Ora! Ora!"

Wukong and Sin stared at them with squinted eyes.

"You know we're hiding from others?" she asked.
