"Miss, the event is over here!" The little maid seemed to have discovered something exciting and, weaving through the crowd, they finally found the venue for the shooting competition.
In fact, competitions during these kinds of festivals are more for entertainment purposes and mainly serve as product promotions for merchants.
For instance, this shooting competition is jointly organized by the Mercenary Guild and some musket-related merchants, with sponsors that even include merchants from Totnes.
Although muskets are cumbersome to operate, they have low learning costs, and at close range, you don't even need to aim. Moreover, they have a direct effect, especially their armor-piercing capability which far exceeds that of bows and arrows. Even an ordinary person could kill a Knight with a single shot if they hit the target.
