I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 443
◈ 443. [Side Story] All The Kings (3)
“Or we all die together.”
At my words, the banquet hall froze cold.
What broke the silence was Kellison’s short laugh.
“under! You’re too bluffing.”
The dwarf king glared at me, brushing his golden beard down.
“The world will be destroyed by a monster? Aren’t these enemies small enough to block everyone on the small front here for the past hundreds of years? Even if you suddenly act like that… … .”
“It is because of that monster that Fernandez is making such a fuss in the first place.”
I put my hands behind my back and sighed nonchalantly.
“It is the monster that has been suppressed here on the front line that will destroy the world. Believe it or not, this is the truth.”
“… !”
“It is said that one hundred words are worth one thousand words… I’d rather show you once than tell you a hundred times.”
Just then, the door to the banquet hall burst open and shouted,
“Your Highness!”
Soldiers rushed inside.
“Ahh! Report from the skirmishers! A mob of enemy monsters is within sight! We are currently rapidly approaching the southern wall!”
“How long is the expected time until the first wave of them reach our fire?”
“It’s another 30 minutes!”
“i get it. Go soon.”
After sending the soldiers back, I smiled vaguely as I looked around the banquet hall.
“This is good. Would you like to see it for yourself?”
Kellison swallowed dryly.
“I see… what?”
“This wire is holding back… ‘Some’ of the enemies that will destroy the world.”
I pointed out the open banquet hall door.
“Since you came to play at the Monster Frontline, you should go and see the monsters that are famous here, right?”
***
I led the kings up the southern wall.
I thought about getting a telescope ready, but I didn’t have to.
thud! thud! thud!
Doo doo doo doo-!
It was because the legion of monsters running away, raising dust clouds, was clearly visible to the naked eye.
The identities of the monsters running towards the human castle walls, extending their legs made of carapace like rakes… … It was a spider.
The monster in Stage 21 of this defense battle is the ‘Red Spider Corps’.
It is a subspecies of the black spider army that you dealt with in the tutorial. It is a mutant that is more agile than the black spider. The armor is thin, but the mobility is remarkably high.
‘They’re cubs that only appear in the third year… … .’
Is it because the black spider army was wiped out during the tutorial? These children crawled out earlier than expected.
Charleureuk!
Thousands of spider monsters poured into the field in front of the castle wall.
Each of them flashed their single eyes and opened their pointy mouths to smack their lips. showed hostility toward humans.
“this is… .”
“Oh my God, you really are a monster.”
“What is this number… ?”
The kings who followed me were perplexed and broke into a cold sweat.
His complexion went white in front of the absolute and unconditional murder intentions that the monsters poured out.
At least the people who came to support during the war against the Goblin Legion looked a little better because they had seen battles all over the place, but they were equally perplexed.
Goblins are a concept similar to a kind of natural disaster that still exists in modern times.
Those spiders standing outside the castle walls are real ‘monsters’ that only existed in the distant legends.
“This iboche. Prince Ash.”
Kellison looked at me with a face glistening with cold sweat.
“I understand the intention, but isn’t it too dangerous? Enough and we go inside… … .”
“All troops-!”
I commanded without pretending to hear.
“Prepare for battle!”
“Honorable name!”
Receiving my order, Lucas shouted even louder.
“Prepare for battle! All troops back to their positions-!”
chuck! chuck! chuck!
My extremely well-trained soldiers took their positions on the walls.
Hundreds of cannons were lined up and ready to fire, and ballistas and artifacts were also ready to be fired at the monsters.
The hero party, each assigned a mission in advance, also stood at a key point on the wall and waited for the monsters to approach.
“Even if it’s a subspecies, its original traits aren’t that different from those of the black spiders.”
I said while keeping an eye on the distance between them.
“It’s a monster I’ve already faced. We know their weaknesses.”
At my words, Lucas nodded.
In the tutorial, only eight humans survived being hit by the black spider army.
However, the tactics of countering the spider army that the eight survived and delivered were familiar to thousands of people here.
All that sacrifice,
all that time,
nothing is wasted.
“There is no reason to be afraid.”
I commanded
“Let’s smash it!”
yep-!
The soldiers shouted heavily in response, and
du-du-du-du-du-!
At the same time, the lead of the red spider army came within range of our cannons.
They were led into the kill zone and roaring as they tangled together terribly.
Kieeck!
It was a beggar-like cry that I hadn’t heard in a long time.
I pursed my lips and raised my hands up—and then jerked them forward.
“All troops fire!”
“Fire!”
“Fire-!” Boom
with Lucas and the soldiers’ afterword
! Beep-!
There was a deafening explosion and hundreds of shells were fired.
The frightened kings covered their ears, shrugged their shoulders, and bowed down. I chuckled. You should get used to this kind of noise quickly.
The fired shells rained down on the heads of the monsters, and
Kwa-Kwang! Kwagwagwang!
It caused an inexorable explosion.
The crossfire that our crossroads are proud of shattered the front of the monsters.
However, the red spider army is the top tier monster army. There is a limit to blocking only the fire net in the kill zone.
Kieeck!
Doo doo doo-!
As expected, they pierced through the thick smoke and rushed out.
The Red Spider Corps is a mutant with thinner uppers than the Black Spider Corps, but much faster speed.
If you get hit directly by a shell, it’s a one-shot cut, but the probability of avoiding a direct hit is higher.
bang! Kwagwawang-!
Thousands of red spiders galloped across the southern plains, breaking through the flames rising from all directions.
“Hick… !”
“Ooh wow… !”
The kings fell into panic as they saw the monsters rushing right in front of them.
Some of them trembled, and some turned around to go down the wall at once.
Chuck-
But the stairs going down were tightly blocked by Evangeline and other melee troops.
At the kings, Evangeline smiled bashfully, and the kings glanced at me with bewildered faces. I said calmly.
“It is safest here on top of the walls, where our entire army is located.”
“… !”
“Don’t think about where you are going and see with your own eyes until the end. Because this is the battle that the monster front has always fought.”
I yanked my hand forward.
“Ballista troops! launch-!”
Wedge love!
Patter… … !
As soon as my order was given, hundreds of ballistas on standby spewed out large arrows.
The equipment proficiency and aiming skills of the soldiers were so amazing that even I couldn’t see it.
Ballista arrows pierced the stinging red spiders, pinning them to the ground.
“Artifact troops! Operate artifacts autonomously under individual judgment!”
“yes! Artifacts will operate in the order set in advance!”
Standing on the wire even with a full-term body, Lily answered and activated the artifact along with the alchemists on the castle wall.
Kiyiing!
From SSR grade to N grade, various artifacts emitted light in succession, and all kinds of debuff magic and active attack magic exploded one after another.
but- but.
Despite the combo that leads to the standard defense tactic killzone-cannon-ballista-artifact, the red spider army has broken through the southern field.
Even though he died from the obstacles and traps densely installed in the field, he succeeded in reaching the front of the wall at the end.
Key-!
Crimson spiders, unable to distinguish whether it was the color of the spilled blood or the color of the original carapace, roared ferociously right under the castle wall.
Seeing them right in front, I could see their hideous appearance even more clearly.
The kings seemed to want to run away right away, but their backs were blocked… … Above all, it was already a matter of prestige.
What kind of laughing matter is running away from a place like this where the kings of the frontiers are gathered?
So the kings could not escape and the siege continued.
The red spiders that reached the bottom of the wall climbed up the wall one by one.
The hand-to-hand combat troops that came forward killed them one by one, and the corpses of the fallen spiders piled up under the wall.
However, the number of those climbing the walls gradually increased.
There were no casualties yet, but a fierce battle was continuing on the walls.
However, the wire itself was held taut… … .
“Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah?!”
Suddenly Kellison screamed.
All were surprised to see that a red spider was climbing up the side of the kings’ hall.
There was no time for other soldiers to come and block them. The red spider, which quickly climbed the castle wall, rushed at Kellison and-
Pug!
In the meantime, Kelly Bay’s hammer hit and shattered his jaw. The monster’s blood and upper body splattered in all directions.
Kiek… … .
With a limp scream, the red spider collapsed in vain. Surprised, Kellison narrowed her round eyes.
“Ah father?!”
“Shut up and get down, you idiot! Keep coming!”
The red spiders that took a detour through that route continued to climb up.
Fuck! Fuck!
Kelly Bey swung the hammer in quick succession to break the spiders’ jaws and save her son.
On the other side, the situation was similar.
Flash-!
With a lightning-like flash, Belldandy ripped off the red spiders that climbed up the castle wall.
Suddenly, she had a dagger in each hand.
Fairy Queen Skuld looked at her sister and opened her mouth.
“Oh sister… .”
“Aren’t you hurt? Stay still. I will protect you.”
Even though he was handcuffed with his younger brother, Belldandy cut down the red spiders with his dagger as if performing a stunt.
The spiders who came to the place where the rest of the mermaid king Poseidon and other kings are gathered… … .
jjwoong-!
Quylan swung his fist and crushed it.
“Urachacha-!”
Quylan shouted cheerfully and hit the fist
. squirm… … !
Dozens of spiders burst out in an instant.
The jaws of the other kings dropped at his unusual inaction. Quylan exclaimed excitedly.
“How can these guys be like water balloons instead of monsters! It tastes good when you catch it cool!”
In this way, the spiders that came to the side of the kings were quickly cleaned up.
“… I think this is enough.”
As I watched the situation this way, I looked around.
“Damian.”
“yes.”
Damian was waiting next to me. I glanced toward the southern plains.
“Deal with the boss monster.”
“As commanded.”
Clack-
Damian took out his horse gun [Black Queen] and aimed it at the forest near the southern plain.
I took a deep breath and immediately pulled the trigger.
Taaaang-!
A dazzling flame rose from the tip of the muzzle, and magic bullets shot out like beams of light.
‘The Red Spider Corps also has the same weakness as the Black Spider Corps.’
Watching the trajectory of the magic bullet flying across the sky, I thought.
‘They’re a group, and the individual objects don’t have the ability to think. And the captain who commands them – if you kill the queen, all movement will stop.’
And the position of the queen was in fact already specified.
Wheezing liquid –
Damian’s magic bullet flew towards his target, drawing a unique and strange trajectory.
It was towards the head of the Red Spider Queen hiding in the forest.
Kyaaaaaa-!
The desperate scream of the queen entity resounded, and then
… … !
Damian’s magic bullet tore the red spider queen’s spiritual core without mercy.
