I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 373

◈ 373. [STAGE 15] Trap (2)

Before Stage 10, I was a nice player.

He was a criminal who cleared the game within the permitted specifications within the established rules of the game.

But on Stage 10, I realized after being hit by the Werewolf Corps and the Wolf King.

This world follows the rules of the game, but in the end it is reality.

That there is no need to be bound by the narrow fence of rules.

So I decided to mobilize all kinds of means to win the game outside of the rules by crossing the rules and trampling on the rules.

I decided to become the so-called tyrant who defines the principles of the front here.

But in fact, I was still bound by the rules.

While trying to twist and apply other rules, he was hanging himself on the last rule.

That rule is the great principle of ‘Kill the monster and protect the people’.

I thought that this definition should not be abandoned. But Carly-Alexandre said.

Throw away even that last rule.

Whether it is within the rules or outside the rules, the fact that they argue like this proves that they are always conscious of the line called the rules.

A monster that completely deviated from those rules and boundaries—that only a prince could win in the end.

***

The time has come for the commanders’ meeting to end. Carly-Alexandre rose slowly from her seat.

《I talked about it for a long time, but in the end, this is just my theory of the king.》

He corrected his helmet like a habit.

“You must have your own king theory. And you will be able to confirm which side’s theory of kingship is stronger in the upcoming battle.》

“… .”

《Let’s fight each other well, Ash.》

Then he put his right hand forward.

Confused, I looked down at the goblin’s outstretched right hand. Then Carly-Alexandre was embarrassed.

“hmm… Don’t people of this generation use this kind of greeting method?》

“… no. I was embarrassed for a while.”

I slowly reached out my hand.

The hands of the goblin god-king and human commander held each other in the air.

His spiked leather gloves and my black leather gloves gripped each other tightly, then released.

“Thanks for the advice, Carly-Alexandre.”

I opened my mouth.

“I don’t know which way I should go yet.”

《Hm?》

“Whether I am still a nice player who is trapped inside the rules, a tyrant who stands outside the rules, or a monster who is completely out of the rules.”

I don’t know who I will become in the future. but.

“But one thing is certain.”

《What is that?》 I grinned

at the Goblin God King who listened to me earnestly

.

I smiled wickedly.

“No matter who I become, I will use all the means I have… That it will end you!”

Ku-gu-gu-gu-!

The earth began to vibrate.

Embarrassed, Carly-Alexandre looked around. A startled voice came out of his mouth.

“This… ?!]

Chow ah!

A gray fortress rises hidden beneath the earth.

In an instant, a gray wall rose from earth and rock and surrounded Kali-Alexandre.

[Imperial Declaration].

My ultimate skill is to summon a magical fortress that can change its shape at will.

《Is it your fortress summoning technique?! But since when-》

“Since when?”

I chuckled.

“That’s right from the beginning.”

[Imperial Declaration] had been activated before the goblin corps arrived at the gates of the Crossroads – early in the morning when the sun didn’t even rise.

They changed the shape of the fort and hid it under the ground, leaving part of the fort’s walls transformed into tables and chairs.

The white flag fluttering next to it is a bonus.

Afterwards, he endured the consumption of magic required to summon the fortress by drinking magic potion and magic juice made by Junior.

Until the goblins enter my jaws… … .

Later, when Carly-Alexandre was seen, he succeeded in luring the [commanders’ meeting] to this place.

Goo Goo Goo-!

Eventually, my gray fortress, which all rose up, resembled a little bit of a prison.

It’s similar to when I locked up the guys from the Aegis task force the other day. The difference is that this time I am inside.

Even with the enemy general.

The duration of the [Commander’s Talk] has ended

.

The mutual ‘inviolability’ status between the two commanders was terminated. Now we can attack each other.

Carly-Alexandre looked at me with a puzzled face and I belatedly stood up from my chair.

“What is the scariest thing about the goblin army? number? belligerence? Everything is scary… … What makes the goblin army the most powerful in my opinion is.”

I slowly reached out and pointed at the enemy general.

“It is you. Callie-Alexandre. Without you, your army is as good as losing its head.”

“ash… !”

“I was thinking about how to kill you. It nullifies all ranged attacks and magic… … In the end, you have to bring them into close combat, but they don’t come out well on the front line.”

I slowly drew the green dagger from my waistband.

[Gablisk].

It is the ‘knife that kills greenskins’ given to me by an unknown person a while ago.

“But now that I think about it, if you are willing to step into my gap… Have you already shown yourself?”

In the free exploration of the dungeon the other day.

Carly-Alexandre showed up on her own, asked me for a meeting, and spoke within my reach.

“So I dug a trap.”

At that time, the conditions weren’t right, so I couldn’t catch or kill him.

It’s different this time.

I applied for a commander’s meeting to trap him and kill him from the beginning, and he didn’t even know it was a trap, and he got caught in a good way.

“ruler… .”

Aiming the drawn green dagger forward, I grinned.

“Let’s do a sword dance in this prison with me. God King.”

《… You must have underestimated me too much, Ash.”

Sreung-

Cali-Alexandre pulled the scimitar from his waistband.

“Although I am a goblin, I am a warrior who slaughtered all seven Orc lords of my time with my own hands. Are you confident that you can defeat me by yourself?》

“I’m sorry.”

Fuck!

I snapped my fingers.

“I never said I was alone.”

The opponent is a boss monster.

The boss is raid by default.

Flash!

A subspace opened behind my back, and my captured monsters poured out.

[Capture Monster: Lv.30 Skeleton Knight (R) has been summoned.]

[Capture Monster: Lv.35 Scorpion Warrior (R) has been summoned.]

[Capture Monster: Lv.40 Troll Royal Guard (SR) has been summoned. .]

[Capture Monster: Lv.45 Hawkbear Assassin (SR) has been summoned.]

Skeleton Scorpion Troll Lastly, even Hawkbear appeared.

Five including me.

1 party

“Don’t say it’s mean.”

My capture monsters slowly surrounded Carly-Alexandre. I also fixed my dagger and recited.

“In the first place, you guys came in with a force dozens of times ours. Isn’t this a war?”

《… Haha.”

Carly-Alexandre laughed.

I sighed.

“why? Do you feel betrayed when I invite you to a meeting and set a trap for you? Did you feel like you and I became friends that transcended peers just because we talked and exchanged a few verses?”

《… .》

“Or was he even disappointed by using this expedient rather than a proper head-to-head match? Are you going to pursue morality or honor, monster?”

“No, Ash. Never. It’s the opposite.”

Kali-Alexandre gave another hearty laugh, and red eyes flashed from behind the mask.

《Yes, this is how war is conducted!》

“… !”

《The one who fights and kills each other with all the means he has and survives wins! War is such an essential barbarism! trap? expedient? What does it matter! That too is just a means to victory! right? honor? I’ve never found anything like that in my entire life!]

The goblin god king’s sword point was aimed at my throat.

“Anyway, between us we have to die and die! How good is it! After all, only winners and losers remain in history!”

“… .”

《It’s amazing that you put me into a single shot so perfectly, Ash!》

The Goblin God King is the most powerful of the goblins. In addition, the boss correction is also received.

But yes, goblin.

The innate potential itself is low. Even the strongest individual within its species has clear limits.

Besides, Kali-Alexandre’s weakness is close combat.

He won’t get out of here alive. know yourself

“Come on, kill me. Kill me and stand over my corpse to prove it! you are stronger! You are more worthy of surviving!”

But why?

There was faint pleasure in the god-king’s voice as he straightened his scimitar and took a combat stance.

《Of course, it won’t be that easy.》

Taat-!

All my scavengers charged at him in unison.

The Goblin God King also charged back, brandishing a scimitar.

The boss monster raid started at the same time as the defense battle started.

***

A gray fortress suddenly rose in the center of the battlefield.

The rising fortress engulfed the commanders of both armies.

The human soldiers were not taken aback because they had heard the words in advance, but the goblins were different.

Kyaaaaaagh!

Kirik! Kyririk!

The goblins were extremely flustered and excited at the same time.

In the sudden absence of the commander-in-chief, the goblin army quickly got out of control.

Doo doo doo doo-!

and started running.

To the gray fortress that swallowed their king.

At the same time, around the gray fortress, as many as 50 turrets rose up.

Chunk! Chunk! Chunk!

Drurr-!

The ‘Shield Turret’, a tank unit that provokes enemies in a wide area.

AoE CC and slow specialist ‘magic turret’.

An ‘auto-defense turret’ that automatically fires magic bullets.

Within the range of [Imperial Declaration], the limit on the number of summons disappears. Using this, Ash poured out all the remaining magic cores and summoned them.

The shield turrets in formation provoked the goblins all at once, and the magic turrets threw a wide-area slow over the heads of the goblins who were attacking as if possessed by it.

The bodies of the slow, floundering goblins were torn apart by shells from automatic defense turrets.

At first glance, it seems to be a great defense, but in fact, the limit was clear.

The durability of the shield turret was steadily eating away, and the auto-defense turret required a long reload time.

If the goblin army continued to attack with this momentum, they would not be able to hold out for long and the gray fortress would fall.

So, Ash laid out one more paving stone.

Fire-!

The blue mana particles swirled like flames and drew a formation in the air, before finally forming a single shape.

It was a summoning magic.

And what was summoned was-

《… Kyaha.]

It was a gigantic troll wearing a jeweled turban.

trolling.

A one-time use boss monster summoned by a summoning scroll obtained after defeating the troll army.

《Kyaha hahaha-!》

Uncharacteristically for a pet, the troll king rushed forward while letting out a laugh similar to that of the main body.

Kwakwang-!

The troll king, who hung himself in the middle of the enemy camp, started fighting the goblins.

One tanking ability is a boss monster that is the strongest in the world, so it will support the defense line at least for the duration of the summoning.

“… .”

The shoulders of the human soldiers who were watching this scene from the top of the castle wall trembled all at once.

Among the troops of the goblin army that poured down like waves, the center army rushed into the gray fortress, but the rest of the wings were different.

They were rushing towards the walls of the Crossroads.

“All troops-!”

Lucas, who pulled out the blade of light from his own sword – the [Bowed Sword], commanded.

“Prepare for battle-!”
