I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 53

◈ 053. [Free Exploration] Carefully destroy parts (2)

Tring! Tring! Tring!

The damage slot started to rotate furiously.

Looking at the numbers running around, I became anxious for a moment.

Please fumble here… … Wouldn’t that be the number on the side?

‘I didn’t want Jupiter and Damian to get hurt, so I did it first!’

If something goes wrong and I get injured, it’s better for me to suffer. Even if I get hurt a little, I can give you instructions.

On the other hand, Jupiter and Damian have to fight in the next stage of defense immediately. No injuries!

… I stepped forward with the judgment, but honestly, I was a little scared when I saw the huge face of the golem thrust in front of me.

Isn’t it just like 000 popping up? huh? Dice god?! Can you believe it?!

Charreureu-

Thankfully.

Tring!

1 2 5!

Not bad numbers popped up.

‘125 damage!’

Not enough, overflowing!

A fierce wind enveloped my fist. I punched my fist from bottom to top.

Bang-!

The wind exploded, and the head of the golem rushing toward me snapped back.

Doduk patter!

The sound of something breaking resounded as the neck snapped in the opposite direction that humans could not move.

《Ah.》

The golem’s head, which had soared into the air for a moment, eventually fell headfirst into the ground. Kugu Palace!

“Whoa!”

I tore off both of my hands.

You should play the game while excluding variables so that you don’t keep relying on the number of bets like this.

The unavoidable situation keeps coming up.

When the thick dust cleared, the armor was smashed to reveal the golem’s head, with its mana core exposed.

The golem didn’t move anymore. Only the single eye in the middle of the head, like the lighthouse light, blinked dimly.

“elegy… Get down.”

Lucas, who came next to me, reached out his hand.

“My lord, finish.”

“hmm.”

Boss Skills have significant experience bonuses.

Since my current level was the lowest, I was willing to accept such a sure kill chance.

“Lend me Lucas’ sword.”

“Yes, here you are.”

Lucas immediately lent his sword.

Lucky Strike’s damage can’t be predicted, so you don’t know what will happen if another weird number comes up.

I decided to borrow a sword to be safe.

I swung my sword towards the golem’s face.

The one eye that shone in the golem’s face slowly closed.

《It’s raining heavily.》

What are you talking about, you freak?

I forcefully swung my sword down.

***

After defeating the boss. While the rest of the party collects items from the boss’s wreckage.

I opened the system window and looked at the clearing status.

[Hidden Back Alley – Boss Room]

– Defeat the boss! (Achieved)

– Lv.20 Giant Steam Golem < Warehouse Cleaner Bayanbulak >

– Destroyed all parts of the boss. Complete Breakdown!

‘I also ate the complete defeat bonus.’

Whistling~ He blew a small whistle.

In fact, it was easier to catch because the mana core of this golem’s head was destroyed and the rest of the mana core exploded automatically.

I didn’t bother telling the party members and broke them one by one.

‘There is a reward for part destruction, but of course I have to destroy all of them.’

Besides, I also ate the last hit experience. Are you going to level up?

‘This exploration is quite salty.’

In addition to taking all the rewards in the dungeon, I was lucky enough to meet a merchant NPC and get two SSR grade items.

Of course, I had to give it to Evangeline right away as compensation, but… … .

‘It was an expense to go out anyway. It’s very cheap.’

It’s a little scary that it’s going well like this, but good is good.

At that time, Damian, who was searching inside the boss room, called me.

“Prince! There’s a treasure chest and a road on this side!”

“Ong, I’ll go right away. And Lucas?”

Calling out Lucas, I gestured towards Jupiter.

“catch.”

“yep.”

Lucas grabs Jupiter, who is about to lose his eyes when he sees the treasure chest.

Struggling, Jupiter screamed.

“No, it’s because I’m still! You’re so suspicious of this poor old man! I’ll just take a look, okay? haha! Don’t watch!”

I’ll just take a look. Don’t leave the fish to the cat.

At the far end of the warehouse, there was a door leading to the other side and a large treasure chest.

Standing in front of the treasure chest, I vigorously opened it. Pick up something good!

A purple light emanated from the box.

‘It’s an SR grade item!’

I put my hand in and confirmed that I had been caught and came out. what?!

[Orb of Scream (SR) Lv.30]

– Classification: Magic Orb

– Attack Power: 40-45

– Durability: 15/15

– Each time you defeat an enemy consecutively, the damage of the next attack increases by 5%. This effect lasts for 30 seconds.

> Set Effect: Must Scream (1/3)

– When all sets are equipped, an area-of-effect fear condition is inflicted whenever an enemy is defeated.

(Requires ‘Robe of Scream’ to activate set)

(Requires ‘Gloves of Scream’ to activate set)

“… .”

The law item has appeared… … .

After looking down at the orb in his hand, he turned his gaze to the side and saw Jupiter grinning. hi go.

“Old number.”

“I will eat well!”

When I threw the orb, Jupiter, who lightly caught it, happily equipped it.

Well, the option suits Jupiter well. It is a good set item for wide-area wizards who wipe out trash mobs at once.

I don’t know when I’ll be able to farm the other two gears.

In addition, there were two standard high-end magic cores (SRs) in the box. Yay ho.

I ate the treasure chest in the boss room like this, and the raid on area 2 was over.

[Area 2: Hidden Back Alley]

– Clear progress: Normal room 4/4 Boss room 1/1

– Acquired treasure chest

: 5/5

I took care of it wildly.

There is nothing more to do here. I gestured to the door behind the treasure chest.

“let’s go. I have to take the next base and get off work.”

A light of relief flashed across the faces of everyone in the party.

Not even that. This free exploration took almost a day.

If the progress was a bit slower, I would have to camp in the dungeon and take a break for 2 days and 1 night. everyone must be tired

When I opened the door and went out to the back of the warehouse, a tall staircase appeared after a short walk.

“This… ?”

“hmm.”

I hoisted the lantern up the stone steps.

Beyond the darkness, the stairs stretched endlessly. The direction the stairs are headed… … .

“It must be the stairs leading to the castle wall.”

It was on the side of the wall that surrounded the outskirts of the city.

‘You’re on your way.’

There is no discrepancy with the information I have accumulated so far.

I chinned up.

“Let’s go up.”

The stairs continued for a long time. After climbing endlessly, the weak Damian and the old Jupiter gradually fell behind.

“Hehehehehehe… .”

“majesty! This old man’s knees are getting better. Draw! How high do you have to go up?”

“Follow me a little longer. Because they all came.”

I am also covered in sweat. no, why so high? If you shorten it with a little game-like permission, where will it be added?

But this was reality, and it was only after we had climbed another 10 minutes that we finally reached the end of the stairs.

“Oh, the prince is going out of his way… . oh my.”

Having barely reached the top, I sat down on the cold stone floor. it’s damn hard

Damian quietly fell on the floor without making a sound, and Jupiter spread out beside him and put a cigarette in his mouth.

“Heo-eok, hee-eok, I’m about to die of heart failure, so I’ll smoke one before that… .”

“If you smoke in this situation, you will really go crazy…” … .”

Lucas and Evangeline also took out water bottles from their bags and drank them at the same time.

As if they had promised, the two of them emptied the bottle clean in one gulp. Aren’t you breathing well?

“You all worked hard. It arrives anyway.”

I pointed forward.

The stairs led to the inside of the watchtower, and in the spacious space inside the watchtower, you could see a permanent magic stone that emitted light and a familiar pile of stones.

It’s a teleport gate.

“hurray! come back soon If I don’t, I think I’m going to have a bone disease in this old age!”

Jupiter, delighted, jumped up and ran to the teleport gate first. Do you have arms? What about heart failure?

“As soon as I got back, I filled the bathtub with hot water and soaked myself in it, a glass of whiskey with ice in one hand, and a cigar in the other hand… .”

Jupiter, who was talking about his honest desire, stopped talking.

Standing at the end of the watchtower, Jupiter was staring at the other side, stiff.

The other party members who felt puzzled followed Jupiter and stood there. And everyone stiffened.

“This… .”

I also followed slowly behind him.

A wide wall stretched out in front of us.

Even the width of the walls alone was twice as large as the crossroads.

And inside that wall was the Lake Kingdom.

The last time I looked up from the back alley was just a part of it.

Looking at the view from the top of the high castle wall, I finally realized the overwhelming scale of the Lake Kingdom.

‘It’s so big that you can’t see it at a glance.’

I remembered the experience of going up to the observation deck of a high-rise building in Seoul and looking down at Seoul.

The Lake Kingdom is no less large than Seoul. The problem is that it’s completely dead.

Originally, the entire city was immersed in darkness and nothing should be visible, but there was one reason why the overall structure was visible, albeit in a blur.

“The light… .”

Damian muttered in a trembling voice.

“I see lights all over the city.”

Like starlight dotted in a cloudy night sky. The lights of the ‘base’ sprinkled like salt in the city were scattering light.

Someone has placed permanent magic stones and unquenchable fires at all corners and hubs throughout the city.

Thanks to this, few living humans can roam here.

And light is not only that.

“What is that? Lighthouse… ?”

Evangeline pointed to the center of the city.

A faint flame raged on top of the towering spire in the middle of the city.

Even though it was unclear surrounded by thick darkness, it was unmistakably ‘light’.

The light was illuminating the tallest and most splendid skyscraper located right in the center of the city.

‘Lake kingdom capital.’

I stared at the royal castle shimmering like fog in the pitch darkness.

That is the last exploration area that we must reach someday.

And it is the land of the final battle where the final boss battle will take place.

‘It’s a long way to go there, but… … .’

I took a small breath as I looked down at the entire city.

Thinking about the long distance from here to there makes me dizzy.

The city is the tallest in the center and the lowest in the periphery.

And that’s where we are right now.

[District 3: North of the Outer Castle]

Here it is.

the outskirts of the city. and most north.

“After entering the sewers and wandering through the back alleys, I came close to the northern gates of the city.”

After summarizing the exploration so far, I looked back at the party members and smiled.

“Well, I’ll think about the way forward next time.”

I slapped my lower back with my hand, which started to pick me up.

“Let’s go home now… .”

It looks like the prince is going to get bone disease.
