I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 256

◈ 256. [STAGE 10] Full moon night (3)

As I ran to the northern wall, I continued to blame myself.

I played this game up to 742 times.

The experience accumulated at that time became a solid asset and helped to run the hellish frontline here.

But what about this time?

‘Because monsters attack humans at the shortest distance, they were buried under the ‘rules in the game’ that they fight only at the southern wall, so they couldn’t think of other possibilities.’

The experience of 742 games stiffened my thinking.

I thought the battlefield of this fortress was only the southern wall. Because that was the rule in the game.

But the werewolves took a detour.

Not only the castle wall, but also bypassed the rules of the game. And it worked.

‘I have to do that too!’

Biting my lips softly, I urged myself.

‘Don’t get stuck in the rules, Ash! Think above the rules!’

This isn’t a game, it’s reality.

There are many ways to circumvent the rules of the game. everything is up to me

You must not be governed by the rules.

You have to rule the rules.

“… !”

At that moment, a vague realization passed through my mind.

A question that has been plaguing me for the past few weeks.

And the key to success in this defense battle.

The answer that ties it all together seemed to waver in front of my eyes like a mirage, as if it could be caught or not caught.

I gritted my teeth and ran with Junior towards the north gate, trying to clear things up.

***

In front of the northern gate.

Tung! Tung! Tung!

As the name implies, the shield turret has a cannon.

In this gun, it does not deal proper damage, but it shoots a bullet that applies a provocation effect to the opponent it hits.

Tung! Tung! Do-do-doong!

The shield turret did its job faithfully. He fired provocative bullets in all directions and directed the werewolves towards him.

The problem is

Kwajik! Quadruped!

Wood Deuk!

The armor of the improvised shield turret was too thin to withstand the attack power of the mighty Werewolves.

Kwagwagwang-!

The shield turret’s armor shattered and burst in all directions.

The werewolves clinging to all sides of the half-collapsed turret let out howls in unison.

aww!

Aww-!

To those werewolves,

taang-!

Magic bullets flew like beams of light.

It was the magic bullet that Damian fired from the southern wall. It was a sniper of ferocious power that knocked down three guys with one shot.

But

Chae Ae-Aeng!

Skim off.

Lunared, who intervened in the trajectory, blocked the magic bullet with her own strength.

A satisfied smile hung on the lips of the nightmare corps commander.

《Excellent sniper!》

Every time the Wolf King’s blade-like claws swung as they reflected the moonlight, Damian’s magic bullets shattered and scattered like star dust.

“But you can’t pierce my toenails with this! Bring something stronger! Come on, come on!]

As if in response to that, a stronger sniper flew in.

Wedge-Ae-Ae-!

[Magic bullet of destruction].

It was a powerful magic bullet that Damian fired with his 2nd skill.

Lunared immediately noticed that the power of the flying magic bullets, emitting red light like a scarlet star, was unusual.

so it didn’t stop

hooked! Pucak! Pooh!

I twisted my body to avoid the magic bullet, and the heads of three subordinate werewolves shattered. Lunared giggled.

《Aha, is this about it?》

He estimated the power of the magic bullet at the cost of the lives of three of his subordinates.

Whee ae ae ae-!

When the next [Magic Bullet of Destruction] flew in, Lunared blocked it again this time. It intertwined its ten claws like a net and thrust them forward.

《Come on, look through it!》

Tsuka gagak-!

Ten overlapping claws and magic bullets collided in the air. Intense fire broke out in all directions.

The [Magic Bullet of Destruction] broke five of Lunared’s ten claws and cracked five of them, but eventually stopped in front of Lunared’s face.

“It’s quite a matter of hurting my toenails.”

Lunared smiled contentedly and splattered his huge hand toward the floor.

Then, broken and cracked toenails shattered and scattered on the floor, and at the same time, new claws sprouted from the fingertips with a sharp metallic sound.

It was like pulling out a newly forged sword.

《But even that much can’t reach the heart of this wolf king.》

Lunared went mad as he offset all of the continuous sniping attacks with his claws.

《This much can’t stop my advance!》

While Lunared blocked Damian’s sniping.

The rest of the werewolves finished off the shield turret. Smoke billowed from the shield turret, where even the magic core was completely destroyed.

After tearing off the remnants of the magic core and throwing them on the floor, the werewolves turned their eyes that were shining with intent to kill and looked at the north gate of the Crossroads.

《Let’s go, my pack of wolves.》

Leading his men, Lunared began to advance.

《Let’s get drunk on the night of the slaughter.》

Lunared took the lead and ran while removing Damian’s magic bullet, followed by the rest of the werewolves.

Meanwhile, the North Gate of the Cross Road was still a mess.

“Come on, let me in!”

“please! The monsters are coming!”

“Aaaaa! AA AA AA!”

Citizens who were still evacuating were densely packed and couldn’t enter the gate, screaming at the monsters behind them.

It was then.

Tadadadadat!

“Uracha-aaaaaaaa!”

A girl in armor leaped from the top of the castle wall and landed on the floor with her platinum blonde hair fluttering.

“You bastards who dare to pounce on my Margrave of Cross-”

The girl’s emerald eyes flashed brightly.

“Sing back that you’ve searched everything!”

It was Evangeline Cross who ran from the southern wall to the northern wall without stopping and arrived at the rescue faster than anyone else.

The relentless shield charge that ran down from the top of the castle wall was pierced straight into Lunared’s face.

《Slow shield knight.》

Lunared laughed as he lightly twisted his body to avoid the charge of the shield.

“I’m a spearman, you fluffy puppy-!”

《… !]

Evangeline threw aside the cavalry spear she had hidden behind her shield.

Tsukaaaak!

The power of the cavalry spear stabbing all of Evangeline’s charge was terrifying.

Flames and blood splattered in Lunared’s hand as she squeezed the tip of the spear with her hand to block it.

But in the end, Evangeline’s rush stopped. Lunared grinned while holding Evangeline’s spear with her hand.

《It was great, but is it the end?》

“Is it the end, fluffy puppy!”

Taaang!

Damian’s sniping that followed struck Lunared’s hand holding the tip of the spear.

Lunared reflexively avoided Evangeline and let go of Evangeline’s spear, and Evangeline, who was freed, clung to Lunared again and struck back and forth with her shield and spear.

The lancer and the sniper linked each other and drove the nightmare corps commander.

Blocking and dodging both the shield and spear attacks at the same time, Lunared smiled with satisfaction.

《A pretty good link, human!》

Even though Evangeline and Damian duo succeeded in stopping Lunared.

Taat-!

The rest of the werewolves kicked off the ground and ran to kill the citizens of the north gate.

There are dozens of werewolves left.

Hundreds of citizens without combat capability were a number that could be slaughtered like sheep in the blink of an eye.

“Stop it!”

Lily shouted as she fired fireballs.

Lily’s party of 5 and the guards at the north gate blocked Werewolf’s way, but they couldn’t hold out for long.

The wolves were well aware that the human soldiers wanted to protect the citizens. That’s why I didn’t deal with the soldiers and rushed at the citizens.

When the frightened soldiers somehow threw themselves to protect the citizens, they turned their claws and teeth at the fallen soldiers.

“Heuk!”

“Aagh!”

“Don’t back down! Stay in line-!”

Lily’s party and soldiers were quickly killed or wounded. But I couldn’t back down.

Marherita desperately turned her heel and shield, and Lily clenched her teeth and raised her mana to fire a fireball. But the limits were clear.

“haha… .”

“Now I don’t have any more magic… .”

When the shield magic goes off and the fireball stops.

I no longer had the strength to stop the wolves. Werewolves ignored the line of defense and turned their attention to more easy-to-hunt prey.

There were two children who could not enter the city gate and protruded outside.

The little boy and girl hugged each other and cried.

The werewolves rushed at the two delectable lives and brandished their claws.

“Profit… !”

Lily came between the werewolves and their children and fended off the wolves’ attacks with her back.

Quadduk! Chaeng-Geurang!

The werewolves’ claws smashed Lily’s wheelchair.

However, Lily, who was attacked with her back, was unharmed. Both the children who were protected and the wolves who wielded their claws were bewildered.

Lily smiled bitterly as she held the children in her arms and protected them.

[Flame Skin].

Instead of consuming mana, it was her characteristic that allowed her to avoid all physical attacks.

If there’s a problem… It’s to the point that I really don’t have a handful of magic power left.

The werewolves surrounding Lily brandished their claws nonstop. Lily held the two children tightly in her arms and closed her eyes.

From the first day I started working on the monster front, I had already prepared for this fate.

But what to do with these two innocent children in your arms… … .

In an instant, the mana went to the floor. Lily whispered softly to the two crying children.

“It’s okay, it will be over soon. Close your eyes.”

The children trembled and closed their eyes.

But Lily didn’t close her eyes. She gritted her teeth and glared at the wolves brandishing their claws at her.

If I could raise my mana somehow and take at least one of them as my companion… … !

That moment.

Push! Push-!

Suddenly, arrows rained down from the side.

Huge arrows shot from the great bow pierced the necks of the werewolves as they headed towards other citizens.

The wolves rolled on the floor with a groaning noise. hooked

at the same time

! Fufufufufu!

Crude iron spears flew and pierced the werewolves’ bodies.

The werewolves surrounding Lily hurriedly backed away with a crunching sound.

“uh?”

Embarrassed, Lily opened her mouth slightly.

This familiar fighting style is… … .

At that time, one of the werewolves couldn’t let go of their lingering feelings and tried to swing their claws at Lily one more time.

Then, faster than those claws, a man wearing a hood and a cape ran holding onto the barbed wire.

Pooh-!

The iron spear pierced the werewolf’s chest cleanly.

“Whoa.”

The man skillfully kicked the werewolf in the chest and pulled out the spear, then looked back at Lily with a sigh of relief.

“sorry. You’re coming back a little late.”

Lily’s eyes widened.

“go… .”

It was because the man’s face revealed when he took off his hood was familiar.

“God Hand… !”

She brushed her pale green hair, typical of elves, and smiled at Lily.

God Hand, the leader of the fireteam Shadow Unit belonging to the Monster Front, spun the barbed wire in his hand and raised it forward.

“The 3 members of the shadow unit are returning to the monster frontline as of the current time.”

Similarly, taking off the hood, Body Bag and Burnout stood to the left and right of God Hand.

Body Bag retrieved the thrown iron spear with telekinesis magic and launched it back into the air, and Burnout loaded an arrow into the bow and enchanted it with the explosive property.

God Hand spat out without hesitation, emitting metal-like cold eyes at the monsters roaring in front of him.

“I will exorcise the monster.”
