I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 335

◈ 335. [STAGE 14] Dogs on the wire (3)

Red blood is scattered on the white snow field.

“Huh! Huh!”

The back alley of Crossroads.

Lucas gasped heavily and straightened his sword.

In front of him, five members of the task force were lying down. Only Mason was barely holding on with his greatsword on the floor.

The task force was numerous and strong, but Lucas’ talent and ability were above them.

“Hehe, the real McGregor is different.”

Mason murmured as he pressed the long sword scar on his chest with his hand.

“No matter how hard it is, they are selected and selected agents even in the most elite team 1, but they can’t beat the young master alone… .”

“Stay calm, Mason.”

Compared to the mortally wounded task force members, Lucas was fine except for a few minor injuries.

Throwing his sword forward, Lucas growled ferociously.

“I will put an end to it.”

“… I’m sorry, Bocchan. I don’t think so.”

Saying that, Mason took something out of his pocket.

“His Highness Fernandez gave me strength.”

“what?”

“A truly destructive force that cannot be approached through swordsmanship training… !”

In Mason’s hand was a small syringe filled with blue contents.

“I don’t think… .”

Lucas, realizing what it was, widened his eyes.

“Beastification Serum?”

“Have you ever used it, Bocchan?”

With a smirk, Mason put the tip of the syringe to the side of his neck.

“It’s a much improved finished version of the low-key experimental samples of the time.”

“A finished version?”

“That’s right. The finished serum that was combined by extracting only the pure beast nature from all types of beasts… … ! Her Majesty Fernandez only gave them to selected agents. The effect is rather volatile, but powerful enough.”

asked Lucas, who shrugged his shoulders and gnashed his teeth.

“How many prisoners were sacrificed to make that serum… ?”

“Well, what do you know?”

Mason laughed wildly and shoved the syringe down his throat.

“As long as the performance is good, it’s enough!”

hooked!

The serum in the syringe was sucked into Mason’s body.

“Haaaaa… .”

The blood vessels protruding from the neck bulged along the body, the muscles swelled, and steam rose from the injured area, and the wounds healed.

Mason grinned, with his blood vessels conspicuous. It showed fangs protruding like those of a beast.

“Right. Is this the sense of giving up on humanity?”

“… .”

“The more you throw away, the stronger you become. Isn’t it funny how human nature is?”

Tuhak-!

Mason hit the ground and rushed in front of Lucas at once. It was a speed that could not be compared to before.

Kaaang!

Mason’s greatsword ferociously ripped through the air, and Lucas managed to block it by swinging it, but he staggered and almost fell.

‘What unbelievable power… … !’

The sword attack was much heavier than before.

Mason’s already enormous physique had grown to the point where he looked like a medium-sized monster.

He was stabbing his huge greatsword as swiftly as a dagger.

Lucas managed to catch Mason’s sword and straightened his posture.

‘Strength and speed are much pushed! At this rate… … .’

Lucas had a way to catch up with Mason very easily.

beast flower.

Lucas himself should have abandoned his humanity and surrendered to his instincts as a beast.

Wasn’t it possible to overcome many crises thanks to the beast shoes?

This time, you just need to be freed for a little while. Then we can kill this damn traitor in one fell swoop and go rescue Ash… … .

– I told you not to wear beast shoes.

Suddenly, Ash’s voice caught my ear.

“… !”

Lucas gritted it.

yes you promised I will never wear beast shoes again.

I didn’t want to break the trust with Ash. I wanted to keep this promise even at the cost of my life.

Then, the means to deal with Mason now is-

‘there is one.’

[Full Body Advent].

Lucas’ ultimate skill that strengthens other existing skills as well as a huge stat buff.

A golden aura exploded behind Lucas, who opened his eyes after closing them.

Whoaaah-!

The golden aura that stretched behind his back eventually covered Lucas’ entire body.

In the pouring snow, Lucas radiated his own light like a lantern.

“after.”

He let out a light breath and Lucas was shot forward like a cannonball.

visor! Chaeeng! Tsukaak-!

Lucas, with the [Descent of the World] applied, began exchanging swords with Mason again on an equal footing. No, it started to overwhelm me.

hooked! Pooh… … !

Blood spurted from every corner of Mason’s body as the sword passed by.

“Kreuk… ?!”

Mason was taken aback as he frowned and let out a beastly groan.

‘I can finish it!’

A group of lights gathered around Lucas’ sword.

[Strike of Will] in the [Descent] state is converted into a wide-area attack. It should be able to tear Mason’s whole body to shreds with a single sword.

While exchanging sword strikes, Mason’s lower defense suddenly became empty. Lucas opened his eyes.

‘Now!’

Lucas’s longsword was raised from the bottom up with tremendous power. Sensing that the defense was late, Mason gritted his teeth.

It was then.

Something caught Lucas’ eyes.

“… !”

There was a small semi-basement window under the wall facing Mason.

A child was looking this way through the semi-basement window.

It must have been a child living in this alley.

And if Lucas swung his sword like this, it was clear that the [Strike of Will], which had been converted into a wide-area skill, would sweep away the walls, the semi-basement room, and even that child.

For a moment, Lucas hesitated.

“… Kut!”

And the next moment, he desperately twisted his sword.

Bang-!

Lucas’s longsword, which rapidly changed its trajectory, struck the empty air.

And Mason, who was watching this scene, raised his mouth viciously.

“Hi, our cute little Lucas… .”

The greatsword in Mason’s hand slashed roughly horizontally.

“Why did you hold the sword in the first place when you have such a soft heart!”

Bang-!

“Huh?!”

Clean hit properly.

The greatsword struck Lucas directly through his empty guard and into his breastplate.

Fortunately, the golden aura of [Descent of War] offset the damage of the sword strike, so even though the breastplate burst, it did not lead to a fatal wound.

Instead, the golden aura flew away, and the duration of the [Descent of the Whole Body] was shortened accordingly.

Impatient, Lucas stepped forward hastily and delivered a desperate stab,

“-I’ve been waiting for this.”

Mason used a secret technique he had prepared.

Tsukaga each-!

Mason’s greatsword had a zigzag cut on one side like a saw.

After receiving Lucas’s stab, he snatched Lucas’s blade as if inserting it – and rotated the greatsword in a spiral with plenty of mana.

Mason’s innate strength and skill he has honed throughout his life, a great sword with a heavy weight and unusual structure, and using the power of an opponent’s attack as a counter –

Mason’s ultimate weapon destruction technique [Weapon Break].

It was a secret skill that he had never shown while living in the McGregor family, so Lucas suffered as it was.

Jjjeok-

The [Karma Eater], whose durability had gone off in an instant, made an ominous sound and

sang-!

It just shattered into pieces.

The moment he was snatched away, he either missed the sword or held on without missing it, and the sword broke, or the result was only one of the two.

Mason had been waiting for the moment Lucas would stab him, and Lucas was well deserved.

“… .”

The duration of [Descent of the World] ended, and Lucas looked down at his empty hands, losing even his golden aura.

Pieces of broken blades were falling to the floor.

“therefore.”

With a growl, Mason whispered softly in Lucas’ ear.

“This is what happens because you keep pretending to be human, youngster.”

“… .”

“Dogs have a way of life that suits them.”

Then Mason’s greatsword was stabbed without mercy.

Pooh-!

Blood gushed out like a fountain from Lucas’ chest, which had been pierced by the sword strike.

“Hmm?”

When I opened my eyes, it was a bit cold for some reason.

It’s strange. I put a full firewood in the fireplace and went to sleep. Did the stove turn off because you slept so long?

I tried to reach out to check the stove, but my arms didn’t budge.

Even if I blinked, I couldn’t see what was on my face. what is this envelope?

After waking up, it became clear. I am sitting on a chair in a cold room with an envelope over my face and my arms tied behind my back. What’s this.

‘It’s too real to be a dream.’

When I bit my cheek, I felt a sharp pain. There’s no way you can dream this realistic, so it’s a story that’s unmistakably reality.

‘I woke up to find that I had been kidnapped… … .’

There was admiration for one’s own insensitivity or sound sleep. How deeply I was asleep.

“Hey~ Hijackers, did I wake up?”

I just flinched and couldn’t see for a while and it was frustrating, so I just shouted openly.

“It’s frustrating, but please take off this bread bag. And since it’s cold, wrap yourself in a blanket. Would you mind turning on the stove? Could you please explain why you are doing this? hello? Can you hear me?”

I acted calmly because I had a guess that the people who kidnapped me did not intend to kill me.

If I was going to kill him, I would have killed him long ago.

that buck that buck

As if my guess was correct, I heard the sound of someone’s footsteps approaching, followed by a polite voice.

“Your Highness Prince Ash. Please be quiet for a little while.”

“who?”

“… We are the Aegis Task Force.”

I clicked my tongue inwardly. Are these sick bastards again?

From the looks of it, it seems that during the defense, they took advantage of the opportunity to kidnap me while all the troops on this side escaped to the south.

My head was blank from the pain, so I couldn’t think of this side… … .

“We just want to carry out the mission we have been given. If you come out cooperatively, you won’t get hurt.”

“How can I believe that?”

“… Our captain will be back soon. The captain will explain everything.”

When you say captain, do you mean Mason, who was imprisoned a few days ago? Does that bastard come here mean he’s escaped?

I clicked my tongue. I just have a bad feeling… … .

The footsteps receded again. I sighed and leaned against the back of the chair.

‘Let’s see how the condition is… … .’

still bad sleepy and dazed I can’t even use my magic because I’m bound with some special equipment.

‘What items and methods can be used?’

As long as both hands are bound, the inventory is also sealed. Since the mana is completely blocked, it is impossible to summon the captured monster.

Moreover, the opponents are trained agents. If you attack clumsily, you will be subdued quickly.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time. How… … ?

“… majesty.”

Then a small whisper came from behind.

“Are you okay?”

It was a familiar voice. I winced and looked back there.

“… God Hand?”

“Shh. You shouldn’t look this way.”

eek. I fixed my gaze forward again.

God Hand continued in a low voice.

“Since you will be blind, I will explain the current situation.”

“… .”

“This is a cabin in an abandoned village north of Cross Road. Your Highness is tied up in the northernmost room on the first floor, and I’m hiding outside the window and speaking to Her Highness through a crack in the window.”

I organized the three members of the shadow unit as a counterintelligence unit and operated them separately.

That’s why I didn’t participate in this defense battle, and I was standing guard in case the Aegis task force invaded additionally.

Thanks to that, I think I was able to respond to my abduction.

“They disguised themselves as merchants or citizen refugees, then suddenly gathered all at once, raided the mansion, and kidnapped Your Highness and came here.”

“… .”

“They have too many people and there are only three of us, so we couldn’t overpower them and were just grasping the situation. Please forgive me.”

no man good job. Do you know how relieved I am right now because you are there?

“Now that we’ve located them and confirmed their numbers, we’ll be bringing reinforcements soon. Please wait a little more calmly… … .”

After saying that, God Hand’s voice suddenly cut off and he said,

“Hey?!”

Courage! Kwajik!

Along with God Hand’s brief scream, there was the sound of a weapon swinging, the sound of something breaking, and the sound of someone falling to the floor.

“… God Hand?”

I whispered softly, but there was no answer.

“Hey God Hand. are you okay?”

Still no answer.

“God Hand… ?”

Are you okay?
