I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 221
◈ 221. [STAGE 9]
It was an unprecedented situation where an additional hostile corps invaded during the jump stage.
Among the misfortunes, fortunately, there were two good news.
The first was the existence of a ‘entry penalty’.
[Unexpected event – Werewolf corps invaded!]
[Defeat the ambush Werewolf corps!]
– Gray Werewolf Lv.35 < Elite > < Penalty applied > : 15
– Brown Werewolf Lv.30 < Penalty applied > : 25 bodies
※ ‘Invasion penalty’ applies. A 50% stat debuff is applied to the werewolf army.
※ When the ‘Sudden Event’ is resolved, additional rewards are given in the stage settlement window.
50% stat debuff.
In the first place, when monsters come to the ground, they cannot use as much power as in the Lake Kingdom.
Basically, from the moment you invade Inse, you go into battle with your stats reversed.
This reverse correction is stronger in early stages and weaker in later stages.
You could call it a balance adjustment.
In that state, an additional 50% debuff was received.
‘Conscience? I don’t know if this exists? You seem to be trying to pretend?’
The extra reward would be better than nothing, but honestly, I don’t need any of this! just keep calm! Gomangoman! flat! I wish I could break the stage!
Anyway, the second good news.
Tsukak-!
Anonymous followed.
Although she was a woman dressed like a beggar to be honest, with graying hair and loose mats wrapped around her body.
And according to his claim, it seems that he is not able to fully demonstrate his combat power because he is still applying penalties.
Tsukak! hooked! Pucak-!
… fights well
It was a movement as if he had been studying how to kill a monster his whole life.
If you are a hero character, you don’t turn on the magic or common skills that you should use, and you just play with your sword lightly and cut off the heads of the wolves.
Thanks to this, the werewolves who came in towards the tail were able to be easily defeated.
Kreuk!
Kruck!
Realizing that the opponent was no match, the werewolf remnants stopped fighting, stepped back, and
taat-!
“oh! Hey kids, where are you going!”
He threw himself back and ran away.
I gnashed my teeth as I watched them slither away into the shadows beneath the snake’s body.
It’s already dark, and they’re so fast, I can’t catch up with them… … !
‘Rather now!’
I’m worried about the party members who are scattered elsewhere!
I quickly instructed my colleagues here.
“Can you protect this place?”
“of course.”
Nameless is a powerful swordsman, but has no grappling hook launcher and doesn’t know how to use it. It’s hard to move quickly together, so I’ll leave it here.
“Stay with Kelly Bay! The situation is urgent, so please break the core with Moomyeong!”
“Okay, leave it to me!”
There is also a one-sided relationship with Anonymous, and Kelly Bay, who can perform part destruction alone, is left together.
I gestured to the other two wizards.
“Follow me, Fox Rabbit! We go upwards for salvation!”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
Two wizards came after me in a hurry.
Cheerreureuk- Taat!
I quickly hooked my hook onto Jormungandr’s scales and began to climb up his body.
My mouth was dry.
Everyone be safe please!
***
Jormungand. near the center.
Fortunately for me when I arrived, Lucas and the punishment squad had just defeated the werewolves.
“majesty! You’re all right!”
Lucas waved his hand at me with a bright face. No, why are you so bright when your whole body is covered in blood?
“I was worried about Your Highness. I was just about to cover the tail.”
“Would you like to worry about yourself a little more… .”
There were scratches from claws on Lucas’ back and shoulders.
As I poured the potion on his wound, Lucas gritted his teeth and endured the pain.
“A total of ten came. It wasn’t difficult for the brown haired ones. The gray haired ones are pretty powerful. I just drove it out.”
“Where have they gone?”
“After killing half of it, it jumped under Jormungandr’s body and disappeared.”
You ran away just like the tail ones. Are you trying to stage a guerrilla using the body of a snake as a stage?
I also checked the other bandits from the penal unit one by one to see if they were all right. Fortunately, there are no major injuries.
“Thankfully, everyone is fine.”
I let out a sigh of relief, but
I waved… .
Then a hand came up from the floor. Looking down, Quylan was sprawled right next to him.
“Ah~ thank you so much thank you. For worrying about a guy like me. As you can see, I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
“Don’t be afraid to stand up, Kuylan. You look perfectly fine.”
“No! actually sick! I don’t even have the strength to get up right now! I want you to worry too! shit!”
When he treated him coldly only to himself, Quylan broke down in tears.
No, I put two evasion setting items in so you don’t get hurt, but what’s the point? Stop doing Hollywood action and wake up.
From what I’ve heard, it seems that he was knocked out by being grazed by a werewolf’s fist. What to do with this glass-bodied bastard?
Quylan raised a trembling hand and brushed his red hair.
“But something was strange. It’s the first time I’ve ever played a monster opponent here on the front line.”
“however?”
“Something… How familiar are these werewolf friends… … As if we’ve known each other for a long time… … .”
Quylan was seriously troubled, but I let it go. There’s something more important than that now.
“There was no news from the snake’s head, right?”
“That’s right.”
I gritted my teeth.
Near Jormungandr’s head were two wizards – Junior and Reina.
The total number of werewolves is forty.
Among them, a total of twenty came from the center and the tail, so it is calculated that the remaining twenty must have gone to the head.
If they were surrounded by twenty werewolves, would the two isolated wizards be safe… … .
“Let’s go to the head support!”
I began gathering the unharmed to begin moving toward Jormungandr’s head.
However, while counting the number of people, I suddenly noticed something strange.
“… By the way, where is Evangeline?”
Did you send it to the center here earlier?
“yes? I came here earlier and went back to the tail… … Didn’t you see?”
“… .”
A cold sweat ran down his back.
I looked at the landscape of the ground, which quickly flowed outside the snake’s body.
We should have met, but if we didn’t… … .
***
Near Jormungandr’s head.
Perbung! Tsukakak!
Reina cradled Junior in her arms and was desperately trying to find a way out.
Fighting while holding the position was suicidal.
Reina decided to quickly abandon the nerve center in her head and run towards the center of the snake’s body.
The problem was that the werewolves also read Reina’s judgment right away.
The monsters obstructed Reina’s escape by clinging to her relentlessly.
Every time the grappling hook launcher was fired, the claw cut the string, making it impossible to use all the extra launchers.
Even if he tried to open a path with magic, it was because the gray werewolf had resistance to the wind attribute.
He was enduring it by receiving the wind magic emitted by Reina with his body.
There was no way to escape, and in the meantime, their attacks poured in and inflicted scratches on Reina’s body.
‘If I could fire a single big magic like attribute resistance, I’d just ignore it and wipe it away… … !’
But the situation where they have already put a close siege. I didn’t even have time to cast a big magic.
At that time, Junior, who was in Reina’s arms, let out a weak voice.
“Leave me alone and escape… .”
“… .”
“You don’t have to die while taking care of me. Cool!”
Reina’s clenched lips twisted.
Junior muttered with a pale complexion from his injury.
“Act like a cool-headed soldier, Sir Reina… .”
Junior was injured in the first surprise attack by the werewolves, and after that, he became the target of the ‘hunt’ relentlessly.
He received a new injury before he could recover with the potion.
Wolves do not miss wounded prey.
If Junior is abandoned, Raina will be able to escape safely while the wolves finish Junior off.
“… Don’t talk nonsense, kid.”
To be honest, it wasn’t that I hadn’t thought about it.
but.
“If I did that, how would I see Jupiter’s face later in the underworld… !”
That’s why the reason why he kept this young wizard alive by going through the hard ‘treatment’ is gone.
Tsukakak-!
Raina poured blades of wind in all directions, and Junior sprayed magic around her whenever she gathered strength.
However, the twenty werewolves skillfully closed the siege and drove the two wizards into a corner.
chin… !
Before anyone knew it, Reina and Junior were driven to the edge of Jormungand’s body.
When Reina glanced behind her, she saw the forest darting past.
‘What if I jump?’
If you reverse the wind to reduce the impact, you won’t die even if you jump.
The problem is after that. What if the werewolves jump down together to finish it off?
‘Damn the single-handed gossip!’
The werewolves narrowed the distance step by step. Soon they would attack all at once.
Reina gritted her teeth and cast wind magic while Junior gulped the blood in her mouth with cloudy eyes.
It was then.
“Just jump down!”
Suddenly, a young girl’s voice came from outside Jormungandr’s body.
“… ?!”
When Reina, surprised, saw that side,
she shuddered- clap!
A hook caught on the side of Jormungand’s body, and he rode on it like a flying squirrel… … Evangeline was flying.
“I’ll take it! run-!”
“… !”
Without hesitation, Reina jumped into the air holding Junior in her arms.
Krrrrr!
Aaah-!
The teeth and claws of dozens of werewolves were swung, but only the collars of the two wizards were narrowly torn.
Tuuk!
“Say-f!”
Receiving the bodies of Reina and Junior in the air, Chan Evangeline skillfully retrieved the hook, then placed her shield under her feet –
Chwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
landed
“Kuh… !”
I held the two in my arms and fell for a while before falling to the floor.
No matter how much Evangeline possessed superhuman durability, it was not an ordinary impact.
But Evangeline, who gritted her teeth and endured it, fired the hook launcher again and hooked the end of my hook onto Jormungandr’s side.
Chow-!
The shield on Evangeline’s slender legs slid down the dirt road like a sleigh and slid beside Jormungandr’s body.
Evangeline took a deep breath and smiled.
“Are you both okay?!”
“It’s okay, but… How did you come to save me right away… … .”
“Hehe, my head is spinning a little faster!”
Evangeline, who was knocked out of Jormungandr’s body by the werewolf’s surprise attack, managed to stick to Jormungandr’s side again using an extra grappling hook launcher.
In that situation, Evangeline thought.
Who is in greatest danger now that the enemy has been ambush?
The conclusion came quickly.
Due to the composition of the party, the head side with only two wizards is the most dangerous.
On the other hand, Lucas is in the center and Ash is on the tail, so they should be able to deal with it.
With this judgment and at the same time trusting Lucas and Ash, Evangeline flew towards her head without looking back.
As a result, the two wizards were saved.
“How about it? Wizards also need a reliable vanguard knight to be safe… … .”
Evangeline shrugs
.
Crisp.
An ominous sound rang out.
“Eh?”
Looking ahead, the hook line connecting the shield sled and Jormungandr’s body… … It couldn’t stand it and was breaking off.
No matter how strong the gift was, it could not withstand the weight of three people.
“Wow! Holy shit! This is the last grappling hook launcher!”
Jiji Jijik!
Now the line was about to break. Evangeline closed her eyes tightly.
If the three fall out like this, the capture of Jormungand may fail… … !
Just then, Ash’s voice flew from the side of Jormungandr’s body.
“I’ll make you a jump platform, Evangeline! Ride as it is and jump, okay?!”
“?!”
Evangeline, surprised, saw Ash standing on Jormungand’s back when he came running.
Ash threw a mana core at this direction with all his might.
As the magic core fell through the air in front of Evangeline, Ash shouted.
“Summons-!”
After all, this was a forest.
All over the place were trees smashed by Jormungand’s advance. Ash used it as material to summon an automatic turret to the ground.
Lay it diagonally on the ground at an angle.
At a good angle to ride.
Cheolguk! Charleureuk!
Wood chips gathered from all sides to form the outer wall of the automatic turret
.
Evangeline’s shield sled glided up the outer wall as it was.
“Ooooh clothes?! this is fun… … !”
The ramp was over before Evangeline could even let out a sound of delight. and
drop at the same time.
The line is broken.
“Ukiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-!”
With Evangeline’s scream, the three of them were thrown into the air.
“Quit!”
At that moment, Reina blew a blast of wind and adjusted the angle so that the bodies of the three would fall towards Jormungandr’s.
Ash roared as he watched the three fall onto Jormungandr’s back.
“Take it!”
thud! Kudang-tang-tang… … !
Lucas took Evangeline, Ash took Junior, and Quylan took Reina.
Lucas hugged him lightly, and Ash stumbled, but unexpectedly endured, and Quylan collapsed on the floor vomiting blood.
“and… what a mess this is Are all three of you okay?”
Ash asked, wiping away a cold sweat.
Junior passed out with foam at the mouth, but Raina was fine, even though her complexion was pale, and Evangeline was lively.
“The jump pole was crazy!”
Evangeline, who had escaped from Lucas’ arms, ran around with her eyes sparkling.
“Please do it one more time, senior! yes?! Sled Jump! one more time!”
“What else do you do? If you do this one more time, your heart won’t be left. Do you know how scared I was?”
Ash looked around and checked the status of the party members.
“anyway… It is fortunate that no one was seriously injured.”
Seeing that each other was all right, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Then, Quylan, who was lying under Reina, raised his trembling hands up and muttered in a fading voice.
“ah… . i’m fine… … Ah. Thank you for your concern… … chat… .”
But no one was listening.
