I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 201

◈ 201. [STAGE 8] Wizards

STAGE 8.

The morning of the eighth defense battle at Crossroads has dawned.

As the entire army was summoned in line with the appearance of the monster corps, Quylan gathered his subordinates and secretly exchanged words.

It was the same story I told my brother.

“What is a punishment unit? It means that it is a card that will be used and discarded anyway.”

The bandits were listening to Quylan’s words.

“If you need an arrow shaft during a battle, you will put it in the front and forcibly entrust it with everything that needs to be done with your body. In the end, it’s obvious that he’ll have you do the tougher job than the regular army. If we remain calm, we will be annihilated in less than a year, let alone three years.”

It was a very common sense story.

Although they treated themselves as bandits the same as other soldiers for the past few days, the treatment will inevitably be different in wartime when their lives are at stake.

“Don’t work too hard to pay and feed me. Don’t risk your life, just pretend to work hard in moderation. After Kureha gets better and the surveillance on us fades, we will leave this city.”

Quylan looked around at his men with fierce eyes like a tiger.

“Did you understand?”

“Okay Captain!”

“Are we really surprised that the captain is so calm?”

“Let’s eat in moderation and bounce quickly!”

Ding-deng-deng-deng-!

Then the bell announcing the monsters’ invasion rang loudly.

Other defense units belonging to the front line here were also appearing one after another and were gathering on top of the wall.

Quilan snorted and looked up at the top of the castle wall.

“let’s go. But if you don’t want to notice, you have to pay for the meal.”

On top of the wall, Ash, the commander of the frontline here, stood tall with his back straight, staring across the wall.

***

“… .”

I kept my mouth shut and glared at the southern field.

procrastinate… … .

I saw slimes that looked like gigantic chunks of jelly, filling the southern field and crawling towards the crossroads wall.

[Enemy Information – STAGE 8]

– Lv.? ??? : 1

– Lv.30 Acidic Slime: 526

– Lv.25 Three-color Slime: 488

Jelly monsters advancing like glutinous rice cakes.

‘Looking at his appearance, he’s on the cute side.’

In the end, the essence is gross monsters.

Slimes are basically very resistant to physical attacks.

If it receives a slashing property physical attack, it splits and takes little damage from penetrating property physical attacks.

However, it is weak against the striking attribute, so if you hit it with a blunt weapon, you can easily defeat it without any problems.

Also, its magic resistance is at the level of normal monsters, so it works well against magic attacks.

‘… Normal slime is the same, but acid slime and three-color slime this time have a slightly different problem.’

Acidic slimes corrode weapons when attacked directly. In addition, upon death, it explodes and inflicts acid damage around it.

Since it is a concept to openly counter the melee class, you should catch it with a ranged attack as much as possible.

Three-color slime absorbs magic attacks into its body up to 3 times. Depending on the attribute of the magic attack received, the color is stored in the body, so the name of the three-color slime was attached.

From the 4th time onwards, the damage is normally applied, but it is very troublesome to be immune to magic until the 3rd time.

In addition, when this kid dies, he also scatters the elemental damage he received around him.

Well, even if it’s an opponent with a lot of difficulties like this.

“It’s been a while since these monsters eat the kill zone!”

I exclaimed happily.

At the end of the southern field, a wooden fence had been set up for the first time in a long time. It was a kill zone that forced the path of enemy monsters to gather them in one place.

The slimes that reached 1,000 water diameters crawled into the kill zone while wriggling. I gave orders to the artillerymen.

“Show the monsters the taste of the flames of mankind!”

Immediately after, the battery opened fire.

pop! Beep-!

Quagmire!

The familiar gunfire rang out, followed by the sound of explosions as shells landed on the ground.

The slimes caught in the crossfire burst out helplessly. I clenched my fists as I watched the slimes explode and fall out. this is it!

‘This is a defense game!’

However, it was a while to be happy with the formation of the kill zone after a long time.

pop! Pew!

The acidic slimes that made up more than half of the slime corps exploded and sprayed acid around them.

Chi profit… … .

A wooden fence that had been touched by the acid could also be seen melting away.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve been trying to taste Killzone’s sweetness.’

I clicked my tongue. Killzone works, but it doesn’t seem to last long.

Around the time the cannonballs crushed hundreds of slimes in the lead, the wooden fences eroded by the acidic liquid came crashing down.

Like flooding in the rainy season when an embankment collapses, the slimes all exit the killzone and begin to advance with a sway.

“Fire the cannon without stopping! We need to reduce their numbers as much as possible!”

Most of the water-based equipment was changed to cannons because it was difficult to inflict effective damage on them with ballistas and arrows, which are physical attacks with penetrating properties.

Also, for the same reason, all the obstacles in the field were removed, and only wooden fences were installed.

The slimes approaching across the field stopped briefly in front of the wooden fence, and each time our artillery shells landed on them.

pop! Beep!

While I was away, the newly developed installation shells-mines were also playing their part.

The slimes stood on top of the mines installed at each point without knowing anything, and exploded with a huge explosion. great It works.

Anyway, by the time they were halfway through the field, about a third of them had been crushed to mush.

But in other words, there are still about two-thirds left.

And they entered the center of the field – within the range of friendly wizards.

In the end, it was the timing that the wizard had to do.

“Three-colored slimes are immune to magic up to 3 times.”

I turned my gaze to the friendly wizards.

“So, as instructed in advance- Lily and Junior, the two of you cast AoE magic 3 times to drain their magic immunity stacks.”

Lily once, Junior twice. like this.

Lily, in a wheelchair, broke out in a cold sweat. Junior standing next to him had a sullen face, wondering why he was dissatisfied.

“And when their magic immunity stacks are exhausted, Reina.”

I faced Raina, an officer of the volunteer unit dressed in an Imperial Army uniform.

“You sweep and finish it off.”

“This is a wise tactic, Your Highness.”

Reina gently bowed her back.

“My wind magic is powerful. It would be too wasteful to just be swallowed in the mouths of such insignificant monsters.”

“… .”

Junior, who was in charge of the devouring role, glared at Reina, apparently quite dissatisfied.

Raina smiled at Junior with a dignified smile.

Leaving aside the war of nerves between the two wizards, I went and stood next to Lily.

“When they’re within enough range, it starts. You have to hit as many of them as possible.”

“Ah, I know, Your Highness… .”

Lily is a fire mage, and her skill set is focused on a single skill set rather than a wide area.

Skill 1 throws a large fireball, and I haven’t unlocked skill 2 yet because leveling is slow because I’ve been away from the front line.

In the first place, because of a leg injury, it is almost like a half-retirement from field work.

It might be a bit unreasonable to direct such Lily to scatter flames over a wide area.

However, if the magic immunity stack of the three-colored slimes can be reduced even once without the consumption of other main magicians, it is an unconditional benefit.

So I called up and brought him to the front line.

“When will this infusion of solders be completely over… ?”

Lily grumbled as she raised her mana. I smiled without answering. well? It probably won’t take 3 years.

“Cheer up, senior wizard.”

“Only in this case, treat me as a senior… Whew.”

Fire-!

Flames rose from Lily’s fingertips. Lily sweated profusely and created a huge fireball on her hand.

“Haaaap!”

He waved his arms wide with a spirited spirit.

The fireball was thrown like a shot and flew over the southern field. Lily then yanked her palms out in front of her, then twirled them and clenched them into fists.

pop-!

The fireball exploded.

A rain of sparks poured from the exploded fireballs and rained down on the plains.

The acidic slimes exposed to the torrential rain of fire exploded, and the tri-colored slimes swallowed the magic, turning the lower part of the body red.

“haha!”

Lily was sweating all over her body. I clapped. you are good? Like a fire mage, the power is outstanding.

“Lily, do you want to just return to the front line as a field worker? We go to dungeons together… … .”

“I’m going to go back to the Artifact team! Enough!”

Lily gasped and dragged her wheelchair to the other side of the Artifact Zone. I can’t even joke about that.

“Junior, it’s your turn. Are you ready?”

When I looked at Junior and asked, Junior swung a magic wand from his hand and came to my side.

This time, it is [Lord of Crimson], a staff made from Celendion’s magic core.

“majesty.”

“huh?”

“If I can get rid of all the slimes on my own, then I don’t have to give her a chance, right?”

Junior asked, glancing at Reina. I chuckled.

“Of course, but… is it possible Aren’t you overdoing it?”

A bad boy. Isn’t that the story of using wide-area magic three times in a row? Aren’t you hurting yourself in a fight of pride?

However, Junior smiled bashfully and raised the cane in his hand.

“I will show you how good the new staff Your Highness gave me is.”

Standing at the end of the wall, Junior raised his staff high. A red aura emanated from the tip of the staff.

[Lord of Crimson]’s special abilities are as follows.

– Absorbs Essence every time you kill an enemy, storing up to 10.

– You can recover HP or MP by consuming stored essence. (10% per Essence)

– If you consume 10 Essences at once, you can use random blood magic once.

[Lord of Crimson] had 10 small grooves on its head, and all of them were lighted up.

I already collected 10 essences during the last free exploration.

You can use blood magic once for free without consuming your own magic power.

Charleuk!

Junior, who generously consumed 10 essences, cast blood magic.

“The type of blood magic that comes out seems to be randomly determined every time, but… .”

A bloody mist spewed out from the tip of the staff and poured over the heads of the slimes.

“This time it took something useful!”

saaaa… … !

blood clot.

Blood magic widely used by vampires that blocks the enemy’s vision and slows their movement.

The tri-colored slime ate this spell as well. Even if it wasn’t an attack magic, I could consume their immunity stack.

A bloody layer formed in the middle of the three-colored slime that sucked in the mist.

“Once again!”

At the tip of Junior’s wand, this time blue magic elements gathered.

Shoot aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Heavy rain poured from the sky. It was water magic.

The three-colored slimes swallowed it in one gulp. A blue layer formed on the upper layer of their bodies.

Their magic immunity stacks are all exhausted!

In addition, the bodies of those who were hit by a blizzard and heavy rain were still wet.

Kurung Kurung… .

Thunder rumbled from the dark clouds in the sky that had been pouring out heavy rain.

shit.

With a smile resembling the wizard who gave me his name, Junior jerked his wand forward.

At the tip of the wand, this time, bright yellow magic elements were gathering.

“I am a mercenary, Your Highness.”

Pachichi Pachichichi!

With the sound of thunder,

“There’s no way I’ll give up my major!”

Junior’s cane and a terrifying thunderbolt fell at the same time in the dark clouds.

Quagmire and light!

And by consuming all the magic immunity stacks, the three-colored slimes- all fried and killed.

***

“Whoa… .”

Looking at the charred, smoke rising fields.

Junior took a long breath and adjusted his breathing. His complexion was pale, but he seemed to be in a good mood.

Junior turned to the side and grinned, and Reina looked at the young wizard in amazement and curled up her mouth.

By all means, ‘Look at this?’ It’s like doing it.

‘As expected, the wizard is the highest dignity… … .’

Whether or not you fight, thanks to the strategic weapons, this defense battle ends easily. I opened the enemy information window for this stage.

[Enemy Information – STAGE 8]

– Lv.? ??? : 1 body

– Lv.30 acid slime : 26 body

– Lv.25 tri-color slime : 33

almost all of the acid slime and tri-color slime.

‘Oh, but… … .’

Sensing something strange, I blinked.

‘Where’s the boss?’

… Why isn’t it showing up yet?
