I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 559

◈ 559. [Evil Side] Impregnable (8)

Standing on the castle wall, Ash looked down with cold eyes.

I saw the enemy commander running towards the wall alone.

“… .”

A faint sigh escaped Ash’s mouth as he crossed his arms.

In fact, Ash did not choose to delay.

‘There was no other way but delay.’

No matter which method was chosen, except for the delay, the damage was bound to be great.

The Fallen Knights are a monster army that benefits from battle, just like the vampire army you encountered in the first year.

In battle, casualties occur on the human side, and the Fallen Knights supply supplies.

It was the same in games. When the battle took place, it would be like filling the hunger gauge of the fallen knights.

In the game, there was no way to avoid the battle, so I had to fight in the form of a short-term battle by crying and eating mustard.

Even with such a short-term decisive battle, the damage increased like a snowball.

But this is reality.

As soon as Ash encountered the Fallen Knights, he changed his tactics to delay.

‘They will self-destruct themselves due to the curse of hunger if they don’t fight and wait for time.’

Best to avoid if possible.

In the end, the battle with the Fallen Knights came down to ‘how long can I pass the time without causing a battle’.

and the result.

Except for the corps commander, Pendragon, all the fallen knights ate each other and were annihilated.

Damn dag dag dag dag-!

And now, the last fallen knight was running towards the wall.

Ash’s eyes glared at the enemy general and shone coldly.

***

Dag dag dag dag dag dag-!

Leading the body horse, Pendragon galloped.

Towards the enemy’s fortress, firmly erected in front of you.

I don’t know the odds. There is no brain left to calculate how many enemies there are or how much more you can fight.

I’m just hungry.

I feel hungry.

‘… no.’

Is this really hungry?

What exactly are you hungry for?

What is it that you have lost, and what is it that you are constantly digging through the corpses of others to find? … .

《… Hot.”

A mischievous smile crossed Pendragon’s lips.

I’ve come too far to look back and count.

He just wants to eat, chew and chew. I just want to fight and die and kill.

How many times have you run so many words over and over again?

Now, at the point where the castle walls are fairly close.

《Hmm?》

A familiar sense of déjà vu hit Pendragon. Pendragon raised his eyes curiously and looked straight ahead.

Do not intercept at the castle walls.

Just like at the forward base on the first day of departure… … do not attack

《… What is it?”

Pandragon let out a confused voice.

At that time, there were no enemy troops in the forward base. It was after everyone had run away, except for me. So it was natural that there was no interception.

But right now, there must be an enemy city on the other side – royalties.

On top of the castle walls, armed soldiers are standing densely.

Nevertheless, the air is frighteningly still.

It was so quiet as if they didn’t care whether Pendragon came in or not.

《Why don’t you intercept?》

The Fallen King gnashed his teeth.

《Why don’t you try to kill me!》

The monster shouts and asks, but the human does not answer.

just stare at it coldly

Pendragon was genuinely perplexed.

I am used to the fearful gaze. The curses and curses of those who will soon die to themselves are like seasoning for meat. A look of resentment is even as sweet as dessert.

But what about the gazes from the humans on that wall right now?

insensitive

As if you’re not a threat at all, no… … .

Like it’s not worth dealing with at all.

《Why-!》

Pendragon screamed.

Already within range of the artillery on the wall.

However, the human soldiers just glared at Pendragon and did not react.

“Come on, fire at me and send me arrows and bullets! This means that you should do your best to stop me!”

“… .”

“War! battlefield! give me life! to me! Come on!]

Pandragon shouted and ran to the front of the wall.

“I’ll let you kill me, so please let me kill you too!”

And then.

“hate.”

A cold reply came from the top of the castle wall.

“I will not fight you.”

Pendragon suddenly looked up and saw Ash standing expressionless.

“I will not share a single agreement with you.”

“what… . >

Soon, a glistening anger passed in Pendragon’s eyes, which were bewildered.

“Okay, then I’ll forcefully bite you from this side!”

The castle wall was already close by.

Pendragon prepared to kick the horse as it was. It was intended to soar up like this, drive the cannibal sword Ex-Carnival into the wall, and climb the wall at once.

however.

“Until there.”

Ash lightly waved his hand and

Zeng-!

I heard the sound of the magic activating.

Halo floated in the air, and space was shattered – magic evaporated from all over Pendragon’s body.

“This… !》

[Dismantle Elements].

It was the ultimate skill used by Junior Wizard, who was standing next to Ash.

Patter!

The corpse horse, which had been forcibly moving the corpse by combining magical powers, was shattered. After falling off the horse, Pendragon quickly regained his balance and continued to charge towards the wall, not caring at all.

“I don’t know if there were subordinates, but if you were alone.”

Looking down at the pendragon like a bug, Ash chewed it coldly and spat it out.

“There is no need to fight.”

《… ?!”

“Fallen King Pendragon.”

Ash asked with a sneer.

“Are you hungry?”

《What?》

“That must be hungry. Because you fallen knights are brain-damaged bastards who are always hungry, no, hungry for human flesh.”

Keying –

After making eye contact with Pendragon, Ash prepared the [Mystic Eye of Command].

“Then eat the meat there.”

Ash raised his hand and pointed,

“Isn’t it there? The human flesh you enjoy eating.”

It was the Pendragon.

《… ?!]

As Pendragon slowly realized the meaning, Ash relentlessly used the [Mystic Eye of Command] and

commanded

“Ash ‘Bonehater’ Everblack orders-” .

“-Eat yourself monster.”

Kiyiing!

A blue flash flashed, and the [Evil Eye of Command] successfully judged.

Reduces the opponent’s mana to a negative level with [Dismantle Element] and connects it with the [Evil Eye of Command], a type of mental control.

So far, this linkage has been a winning strategy that has never failed, and it worked perfectly this time too.

And the target, Pendragon, was forced to listen to Ash’s orders.

Stand tall!

Right in front of the wall, Pendragon stopped and said,

“Ugh… ?!]

He raised his trembling hand.

And

Kwadeuk!

He opened his mouth wide and bit his hand.

The Corrupted King’s fingers to the back of his hand were chewed and swallowed in one go.

A grotesque scene unfolded as blood and flesh splattered. The soldiers couldn’t bear to see it anymore and turned their eyes away, but Ash was still glaring at it without blinking.

《Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… … .]

While feeling terrible pain, Pendragon realized at the same time.

it’s good.

delicious.

How could something so delicious be so close… … .

The curse of hunger, which had been suppressed for a long time after being left alone, immediately dominated Pendragon’s thinking. Pendragon began to eat away at my body as if it had been heard.

oh oh oh oh oh… .

“… .”

As he looked down at the terrible scene, Ash suddenly thought.

Greek mythology tells the story of a man named Erysichthon.

He was stricken with ghost disease for insulting God, but he spent all his possessions and ate and ate and ate… … .

In the end, even his body was chewed up and only the teeth that crackled were left. such an old story.

[Evil Eye of Command] quickly lost its effect, and [Element Dissolution] also evaporated and disappeared.

If Pendragon had stopped hurting himself at this point, it would have been, at best, a minor injury to his arm.

However, Pendragon, who had already gone mad with his appetite for human flesh, continued to devour his own body.

“If I coveted the flesh of others, I should have been prepared to lose my own flesh as well.”

Ash groaned quietly.

“I hope you enjoy your last supper monster.”

how much time has passed

Pendragon stopped only after consuming all the flesh within reach of his teeth. Already, he could no longer even maintain a human form.

《… I must have felt like this.]

Falling down on the field in front of the castle wall.

Whether it was swallowed blood or vomited blood, Pendragon smiled dejectedly at the corners of his mouth stained red.

“The people who were eaten by me felt like this.”

“… .”

“It’s strange, it’s strange, it’s really strange… … . >

In the sea of blood I swallowed and poured out, Pendragon muttered in a hazy voice.

“No matter how much I tear it, it still hurts… No matter how much I eat, I’m hungry… … .”

“… .”

“Come here. Together… .》

The Corrupted King’s polluted voice slowly faded.

“Sit down together… … have dinner… … .》

Pendragon couldn’t speak anymore.

The end of the monsters who shouted that they would destroy the world were all empty and pitiful, and Pendragon was no exception.

“… after.”

Ash, who looked down at the desperate enemy corps commander for a long time, raised his hand and stirred it.

“End of situation. Dismiss the soldiers.”

“Yes sir.”

“The enemy’s corpse is according to the monster disposal manual. Burn it without leaving a single speck and retrieve something useful. … and.”

Ash’s hand, which climbed on top of the castle wall, was full of strength.

“Send a party to the chapel in District 8 of the Lake Kingdom.”

“… .”

“First, retrieve the bodies of the six people who died. So that we can have a funeral.”

“Johnny.”

Lucas bowed his head.

“I will follow your command.”

***

《… .]

The imp corps commander, Low, was reading the report of the attack.

《You can’t believe he defeated the fallen knights without fighting a single battle.》

The little devil’s eyes were extremely serious.

“No, rather the opposite. If a battle broke out, it would be at a disadvantage, so I mobilized all means to avoid battle… … .》

Tak.

After covering the report, Lowe rubbed her chin with her small hand.

《… And he knew the fatal weakness of the Fallen Knights in advance.”

The fact that the Fallen Knights suffered from this curse of hunger was a fact that even other monsters in the Lake Kingdom did not know.

But Ash, of course, seems to be aware of this weakness… … The tactic was established based on the curse of the fallen knights.

If he hadn’t known about this curse, Ash would have set up a defensive line in the forward base as he had done before, and then the Fallen Knights would have safely moved north without experiencing problems with supply.

The most important element of war. information.

Ash was overwhelmingly ahead in this information.

If you look at the battle record so far, you must have grasped all the strengths and weaknesses of all monster corps.

‘It’s the same no matter which legion I send in the future.’

It was clear that the guardian of public interest would somehow defeat the monsters by fragmenting their strengths and amplifying their weaknesses.

Until now, the guardian of the people has never allowed a monster to pass over that front line.

It just keeps failing in the same way as before. Lowe realized that after three attempts.

《So what are you going to do next?》

asked the adjutant snooping next to him, tilting his head. Rowe inhaled and then exhaled.

《This way, you just have to cover up your weaknesses and amplify your strengths.》

《How?》

《It’s simple.》

Lowe snatched the scepter from his desk and smiled.

《It’s a sword that unleashes two legions at once!》
