I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 396
◈ 396. [Side Story] Dream Team
Hui Ying –
A dry wind blows over the bridge.
Plague Legion Commander Raven Crown and his subordinates 2 highwaymen.
These three forces are targeting us, and we are caught up in the middle.
Looking at the eyes of the three forces aiming their weapons at each other, I cautiously and slowly opened my mouth.
“We can’t stay like this forever, so let’s sort things out… Crown first. Aren’t you guys just taking Mason with you?”
I turned to Raven standing behind me.
“And Raven. Can you just take Salome with you? Wouldn’t it be a happy ending for everyone if they parted ways with their children, which is their goal?”
me?
I’m going alone on my way now
Hearing my words, Salome was taken aback.
“No wait! ash! Are you going to abandon me?!”
“Yeah.”
《Are you handing over your precious comrade to the enemies and getting away like a bobbed lizard?!》
“Yeah.”
Since when did you say you were soul mates? Let’s tear apart at this point and go our separate ways. Of course, the place you will go is the grave.
I thought it was a reasonable proposal in its own way, but Crown replied in a cold tone.
“No Ash. I will take you too.”
“Eh… .”
“The reason you left me wandering around in the darkness of this place was because there was no order from the King of Kings. But I can’t turn a blind eye to your entry into the deepest part of this place. You will be taken to the King of Kings immediately.”
Raven’s reaction was no different.
《The opponent’s king has fallen right in front of you, but do you think you’re going to just watch him run away? Ash, I’ll turn you into a handful of blood. I will bury you on my farm with Salome… … !]
Then, Crown and Raven began fighting each other saying that they would take me away.
“My authority as the King of Kings’ inspectorate takes precedence! I’ll take Ash!”
“gibberish! I am also a direct vassal of the King of Kings and his ally! My authority is higher! That guy is mine!]
No, I repeat, I don’t need this kind of popularity.
“Everyone is greedy… … .”
There seems to be no room for negotiations with these two forces. In the end, I sighed and looked at the last negotiator.
There were two highwaymen.
“Daegyeop two minutes.”
Respectfully showing an example, I said.
“I actually have a lot of money.”
“Yes?”
“Even though it looks like this, on the ground, it uses strength. I don’t know if you know a country called Everblack, but I’m the prince of that country.”
I presented the main point to the two who suddenly looked at me as if they were talking about something.
“If you help me escape to the surface, I will give you half of my fortune.”
“… !”
Just as these robbers demand.
I will give you half of all your possessions.
What’s the point of a few gold coins? If only you would help me return from this hell to the earth… … !
Two pairs of madman eyes shining through the scattered white hair looked at each other. The two old men glared at me again.
“How can you believe that?”
“The commander of the Nightmare Corps and the last unit of the Lake Kingdom are so obsessed with me. Doesn’t that just prove my importance?”
Behind me, Salome nodded enthusiastically. Ah, this guy is also the leader of the Nightmare Corps.
I looked around and shrugged.
“I think business is not good anyway… Why don’t you hit it big and retire and build a comfortable old age?”
“… .”
“… .”
The two old men giggled at each other, then took a piece of old, yellowed parchment from their bosom and handed it to me.
“Write a memorandum.”
“yes?”
“Take a hit.”
“… .”
“Let’s write one more copy here and share one with each other. That’s right.”
No, it’s not like that, so it’s surprisingly thorough.
A memorandum of cooperation was soon drawn up. Roughly speaking, ‘The Distressed Troupe helps Ash escape the dungeon.
If Ash escapes the dungeon, half of his property will be paid to the Disaster Relief Corps’.
Well, anyway, I took sides like that.
“The party of 5 is complete.”
Human Commander Ash.
Salome, the leader of the dream demon corps.
Mason of the half-man, half-beast task force.
Two highwaymen belonging to the Jonan Manghyang Troupe, a sword demon and a spearman.
Fantastic Dream Team The miraculous 5-person pot was completed.
I don’t know if this is a combination of maggots with no roots, but in the end, the number was right… … !
And while this side was building a 5-person pot, the negotiations between Raven and Crown, who were fighting among themselves over my future, were also over.
《I will kill you!》
“Ha, didn’t you say that last time, Plague Lord?”
It seems that this side did not produce such a positive result.
《The reason I haven’t released my power is to use Salome as a seedbed for my new plague… … It was to avoid contaminating it.”
Raven opened her hands wide open in a terrible voice as if boiling phlegm.
“But you won’t look at me anymore! All of you get swept away by the waves of disease demons-!”
The hem of the plague corps commander’s coat fluttered, and a terrible energy emanated from within.
Chow ah!
It’s different from before.
In the past, she met an alter ego, not the main body of Raven, and what the alter ego spewed was not a real plague, but a phantom pain fake plague called [Phantom Pain].
But this guy is the real Raven himself.
Sprinkling is also a real pestilence!
‘Damn you bastard! It’s just as terrible in the game and here!’
A foul smelling green mist gathered around Raven’s body and spread in all directions.
His first pattern is to spray that poisonous mist that does dot damage.
No matter what plague pattern you develop later, you start with this poison board unconditionally.
You have to fight him on this field where your stamina is constantly being cut.
I clicked my tongue and thought of the number of patterns he would develop later… .
Hwaaak!
It was then.
For some reason, the green fog covering the bridge stopped moving around me.
“… ?”
huh? what?
Raven’s poison fog could not penetrate within a 5m radius around me. I blinked and looked at this strange phenomenon. Did I have this special ability?
“You guys… … ?]
Even Raven was confused. Raven again deployed the next Plague.
《I’ll rot-!》
Cheerureuk!
This time, swarms of flying insects and bats cascaded from within its cloak and swept across the bridge.
However, the vectors of the plague also passed by without being able to approach a radius of about 5m around me.
“… ?”
what?
why?
People quietly gathered around me, not knowing why.
Not only our hastily formed 5-person pot, but also the members of the Crown and Nightcrawler units stood behind me, embarrassed.
“excuse me… .”
“I’ll avoid that for a while… .”
While waiting for the bus, as the shower started pouring down, I could hear the conversation of the person next to me as if I was using an umbrella.
The whole of the wide bridge was infested with plague, but only me was calm. what harmony is this
“I hope you… … .》
At that time, Raven shook his shoulders and stammered.
“Have you eaten? Peninsula… … ?”
“Peninsula? What is it.”
《The supreme peach stolen from my farm!》
“Ah. Those that tasted better than those canned peaches?”
It sounds like your name is Bando. Baekdo and Hwangdo seem to be the names of these kinds of peaches.
“I ate everything… It was so delicious.”
I don’t like fruit very much, so I ate it all on the spot, so it was quite good.
Why does it feel like a peach from a fruit snack at a pub? If I had to pay for it, I wouldn’t curse and order it, but I actually enjoy the fruit snacks someone ordered. It was just so subtly delicious.
《Neno Ohm! How dare you take that peach, that peach… … !]
Raven shuddered.
No, no matter how precious the fruit is, it’s a bit… … It doesn’t seem… … .
At that time, Crown, who was listening to the conversation, laughed out loud.
“Ash, the peach you ate is a treasure that was cherished and nurtured by injecting enormous magic power here on the royal farm.”
“Oh yeah? Is it expensive?”
“I can’t put a price on it… Do you know that the people of the Lake Kingdom studied immortality?”
A bitter smile crept across Crown’s lips.
“The royal family of the Lake Kingdom made every effort to obtain an immortal life. Researching magic to increase lifespan, developing ways to transfer souls into new bodies… … I also developed all kinds of elixirs.”
suddenly came to mind
The curse that fell on all the people of the Lake Kingdom – ‘the curse of eternal life’.
The root cause of their suffering at the bottom of this lake for hundreds of years.
Did the curse of eternal life also come from seeking immortality?
“The peach you ate came from the development of the Elixir of Immortality. There was no effect like immortality, but instead… … It makes the user invulnerable to all diseases.”
“aha… !”
Does that mean it gives resistance to poison property attacks?
“… I thought it was just one of the many elixirs developed at that time, but I never thought it would have such great efficacy as to prevent that Raven’s plague. I didn’t know either.”
I looked around in admiration at Crown’s words. The miasma still doesn’t even come close to me.
You made me chew the pattern of the corps commander like this!
Thanks Magic-Peach!
“Me or me! compliment! Praise!]
Salome, who had been picking the peach, hurriedly beckoned her to praise herself, but she ignored it.
I glared at Raven and grinned.
“Be the Lord of the Plague. It’s too bad.”
《… !》
“There are two main attack patterns of yours. The first is the real plague that the main body sows. The second is phantom pain caused by an alter ego.”
I strode toward Raven.
Then, the other people who were close behind me followed, and Raven hesitated and took a backward step.
“But the real plague is the peach you cherished, and phantom pain is a mental abnormality, so I can chew it all with my own power.”
《Kuh… ?!”
“It looks like I’ve become your living, breathing nemesis?”
The trembling Raven ferociously muttered.
“Don’t be conceited, human… ! My plague is constantly evolving. I will definitely break through the panacea that you were lucky to obtain… … !]
Then, flapping his cloak, he said,
“Let’s see…” … ! Definitely only you… … !]
Charleureureuk-!
Just like when he appeared with that kind of third-class villain exit line, he changed into crows or hordes of field mice and disappeared.
I snorted. No, it’s true that I was lucky enough to get a counter with one elixir.
It is also a fact that I have the method of attacking the plague corps established in the game.
Even if you didn’t eat this peach, I can catch you man!
“compliment! compliment! Hurry up!”
“… .”
I tried to ignore the clinging Salome and looked back. OK.
seureung… … !
Before we knew it, the Crown and Nightcrawler troops, who had distanced themselves from us, were aiming their weapons at us. I clicked my tongue.
“Sir… You avoided all the showers, right?”
“Thanks to that, I was able to easily avoid the Plague Lord’s attack, Ash. But that is that and this is this.”
Crown grinned and raised a hand.
“Has our record so far been 1v1? just the third. Wouldn’t it be a good time to decide the outcome?”
“Damn it… You have infinite life coins. Even if I win this time, won’t you come again saying you want to win the fourth time?”
“Haha, that won’t happen. because… .”
It was then.
that buck! that buck! that buck!
Dozens of new Nightcrawler members appeared on the other side of the bridge. Crown nodded.
“The match will end here.”
“… .”
I was stunned by the number of guys filling the other side of the bridge.
Plague Legion- Raven is a gimmick-oriented boss monster.
If he can destroy only the core patterns, the level of this side is low and the number is low, but it is possible to clear it somehow.
But these Nightcrawler bastards are honestly pushing the numbers.
NPCs whose hero character is judged one by one.
Dozens of white smiling masks approached over the dark bridge and drew their weapons. I gritted my teeth and glared at them. How to break through these guys… … ?
Knock knock.
Then someone tapped me on the shoulder.
When I turned my head there, there were two robbers who had joined my party this time – a sword demon and a spearman.
The two madmen said to me, grinning with sparse yellow teeth.
“Let’s bounce!”
“Yes? Where?”
“Where are you?”
The two madmen pointed to the deep darkness under the bridge and spoke proudly.
“To the ‘bottom’!”
