I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 561
◈ 561. [Evil Side] Impregnable (10)
Demons have unique powers.
This power, called ‘Sacrifice’, restores or strengthens the caster’s strength by sacrificing a fellow member.
Demons are basically a race that accepts sacrifices from worshipers and increases their own strength by accepting them.
The authority ‘sacrifice’ is an extreme abbreviation of this mechanism and can be said to be a ritual in which the caster forcibly sacrifices a lower demon species than himself.
Imps are demon species that are optimized to be the target of this ‘sacrifice’.
Small, ugly, and powerless.
Just carry it around like emergency food and eat it when a higher level demon needs recovery or reinforcement. such a low-level demon.
Imps have evolved in such a way so that they can be eaten better and have a good effect on higher level demons who sacrificed them.
When you become the target of a ‘sacrifice’, you raise the specific stats of the higher demon that ate you, temporarily strengthen it, or increase your defense power. The race that puts such a buff.
Assisted with various chores during life, became food and buffed after death.
Imps were such a race.
Naturally, imps were treated like tools that other demons could only do as they were told.
The imp corps commander, Lowe, was the same.
I’ve been living as the other top demons told me.
The reason why he received the king’s scepter and acted as an agent for the royal attack was because the rest of the corps commanders belonging to the demon species were all on the front line against the black dragon.
It was only an opportunity he received because he was a weakling corps commander who was not strong enough to go to the front.
The power of the demon species is revealed by the size of its horns. Unlike Cromwell, who had big and beautiful antlers, Lowe’s antlers were small and ugly.
With an ego and self-esteem as small as the size of his horns, Lowe has been crawling on the floor like that.
However, as he fought against Ash, an unprecedented desire began to burn in Lowe’s heart.
Chasing after the far-away enemy commander who can’t reach even if he stretches out his hand, he sees the impenetrable castle wall that looks flawless and faces it in reality.
A fire was kindled in the heart of this little devil who had been inert all his life.
want to win
I want to win.
Her own life, which she thought was meaningless, might have existed in order for this man to overcome this wall.
‘I’ll do anything to defeat this greatest opponent…’ … !’
And that was the moment when Lowe finally found and grasped the clue that led to victory.
***
Right after the thirty-fourth strike.
Lowe was summoned to the royal castle. Exactly, I was taken into custody.
Kung Koo Goo Palace… … .
The castle was still shaking violently from the battle with the black dragon.
Black flames spewed out by black dragons surged outside the extension barrier, and other demon corps commanders were using evil to intercept the dragons.
the inside of such a kingdom. In the audience room, Cromwell, the leader of the Demon Guard, was waiting for Lowe with a tired complexion.
“Low,”
Cromwell growled as soon as the dragged Low arrived.
《Why did you break the rules?》
《… .]
《Why did you break the ‘rules’ established by the Demon King? Why did you do that?”
Cromwell questioned and then shook his head.
“No, yes. must have been a mistake This must have happened because I entrusted the task too hastily.”
“ It wasn’t
a mistake
.”
“What? ”
《When I first held this scepter, the scepter showed me. What can you do with this royal scepter? And how far is the line that must not be crossed?”
“By the way… Why did you cross the line?”
“Because I wanted to win.”
Lowe hugged the royal scepter tightly in his arms.
《Because I had to dispatch two corps to prove the strategy I had in mind.》
《Because I was the one who acted for you… … ! And because you broke the rules, I was meant to be punished by the King of Kings!] The
Devil Guard Corps, no different from the Devil King’s bodyguard. That Lord Cromwell.
Of course, Cromwell is loyal to the Devil and fears being caught by the Devil the most.
Cromwell exclaimed, and then took a deep breath and held out his hand.
“no… Actually, it’s normal. The responsibility lies with me and I will bear it.》
《… .”
“I won’t blame you anymore. However, the imp corps commander, Lowner, is disqualified from acting as King of Kings. Give me the scepter.”
“I don’t like it.”
“What?”
“I said no.”
The eyes of not only Cromwell but also other demons widened at the first experience.
And for the first time in his life, the small imp corps commander refused the order of a being far superior to him.
《Only once! It only takes one step! If we attack one more time from now on, we can destroy the royalties… … !]
The demon guards cautiously approached Low as he shouted. Lowe looked back at them with ferocious eyes.
《Don’t come close!》
《… !”
“This war… It is the first thing I found that I want to give my life for.”
Lowe exclaimed.
《If the imp’s life is to be sacrificed anyway, then I… … I want to be dedicated to this war!”
“… .]
《This royal scepter, not this war! It’s all mine!]
Cromwell blinked in bewilderment before Rowe gasped after pouring out.
“Lo, you… .》
It was then.
Kwagwagwagwang!
The castle vibrated violently with a terrifying explosion. The gruesome screams of other demon soldiers came from outside.
Cromwell, barely balanced, shouted outward.
《What’s going on!》
《Jinjin Black Dragon!》
The demon guard rushed in and reported.
《Nightbringer has stepped forward himself! With his breath, all the outer barriers of the royal castle were blown away from District 1 to District 9!》
《This damn lizard bastard… … !
” … The final barrier here in the throne room is holding firm! It’s still okay!》
But the next moment.
All the demons gathered here had to see.
Lowe ran to the entrance of the throne room and put his hand on the barrier… … Looking back slowly.
Cromwell stuttered, his spine aching.
“Low?”
“I guess you forgot.”
Lowe coldly scratched his head in an incoherent voice.
《I am also a corps commander who has the authority to control this barrier.》
《Don’t do that. Lowe.”
Cromwell tried to calm Lowe calmly.
《I’ll let you keep the Acting Authority and the King’s Scepter, so stop-》
But.
The barrier was already dissolving in a circle where Lowe’s hand had touched. With
a whirlwind,
a small part of the barrier was released, and Lowe pulled his small body through the crack and escaped.
Cromwell’s mouth twisted as he stared blankly at it.
“That crazy bird… … .]
Cromwell could not finish the curse he had been spitting out.
Because the Black Dragon wasn’t stupid enough to miss the small opening in the barrier.
Kwagwagwagwagwang-!
The Night Bringer, flying in the form of a huge black dragon, shoved its vicious claws into the barrier and tore it at once.
Cromwell shouted at the Night Bringer, who was digging into the throne room like a battering ram.
《Jin Black Dragon! This weightlifter-!]
《All princes who establish new dynasties must be weightlifters.》
The Night Bringer laughed, opening his huge mouth.
《Treason is the mark of a king.》
Kwajik-!
The dragon’s gigantic mouths interlocked and chewed up Cromwell’s upper body. Blood splattered everywhere like a fountain.
Leaving behind the royal castle, which became an abyss, Rowe ran with the royal scepter in his arms.
《Heog-huh-huh-huh-huh!》
It doesn’t matter what happens.
It doesn’t matter whether the demon species are annihilated, the black dragon seizes hegemony, or the king of kings punishes them.
If you can apply your own strategy and face the guardian of royalties.
As long as I can give my life with all my heart and fight a one-on-one match-
I don’t mind destroying the world.
After running for a long time after leaving the castle, Lowe arrived at the entrance to the underground sewer.
Lou was breathing heavily when he heard footsteps in front of him.
Sabak. Sabak.
Surprised Lowe looked at it urgently.
《… .》
There was Cromwell’s adjutant who had been watching Lowe all this time.
She had read the materials Lowe had researched and knew that Lowe would come here.
Blocking the entrance to the sewer, the adjutant sent an incomprehensible gaze over the glasses. Rowe asked with a hard laugh.
《Did the sword come to stop me?》
《… No.”
The adjutant smiled brightly.
“I want to see you. The end of the road you are going to.”
The adjutant slowly stepped aside.
“I will follow you. So show me your dream.”
Laughing bitterly, he stumbled into the sewer.
And he threw himself without hesitation toward the deepest and dirtiest place.
***
Lake Kingdom District 10. sedimentary land.
It is the dirtiest and most filthy place in this hell, where all kinds of filth and trash that come down the sewer are gathered.
《Kuk!》
Lowe, who had tumbled to this place, was eventually found.
The monsters that made their nests in this horrible mountain of garbage that reeked of disgusting stench.
Paris Legion.
Dirty, nasty, terrifying monsters born of maggots that everyone shuns.
《The guardian of public interest knows the strengths and weaknesses of all monsters. Then how should we deal with it?”
Lowe staggered toward the corps of flies. The adjutant did not frown and quietly followed Lowe.
“It has to be twisted. Strengths and weaknesses.”
“… .”
《The guardian of public interest is confident that he will overwhelm in the information warfare. So, if you get that information wrong, you have a chance on this side.”
Lowe recalled the 34th attack just before.
《When we sent out two corps that could compensate for each other’s weaknesses, the guardian of public interest suffered damage without being able to respond in time.》
However, the monsters are inherently difficult to cooperate with each other.
The risk of breaking the rules was also borne by Cromwell last time, but if he violated it again, he might have to bear it himself this time.
Then the attack itself may end in the middle.
If so –
《The answer is simple. It’s just a matter of participating in a state where you don’t need cooperation,”
said Lowe, standing in front of flies sucking filth from the garbage mountain.
《The sword that unites two armies into one.》
《… You’re going to sacrifice yourself, Lowe
.
”
《The Paris Legion are monsters with enough potential to destroy people. The only problem is that the intelligence is too low. It’s a sword that can be easily defeated if it’s a guardian of public interest.” ”
… … .》
《But if I become a sacrifice and strengthen them… … If you can give them enough intelligence. then… .》
The Imp and the Fly.
What kind of result will be born when the two most despised corps merge into one?
Lowe took a deep breath and walked towards the infested giant flies. The adjutant said behind Lowe.
《You know what, Low?》
《… ?”
“Your horns are so big and nice now.”
Lowe raised his hand and touched his forehead, puzzled.
Then- it really was. He touched his horn, which had grown huge before he knew it.
Rowe smiled involuntarily.
In the meantime, I thought it was weak because its horns were small.
But no.
Because the dream he embraced was small, his horns were just shabby.
But now, the Horn of Lowe, who has finally found a dream worth devoting his life to… … .
It was incomparably larger than before and was emitting ominous light in all directions.
“Come on, maggots,”
Lowe shouted, spreading his arms to the left and right in front of the corps of flies.
《Eat me.》
Giant flies clinging to the filth, and even maggots and pupae… … Everyone looked at Lowe in unison.
“I’m willing to be your sacrifice. Eat me
!
《And let’s destroy the world together!》
Countless flies and maggots rushed at him all at once.
***
While Lowe’s whole body is being eaten.
Legions of imps called upon by him also tumbled down the sewers to the deposits here.
The adjutant watched him quietly.
Imps falling like rain through the sewage pipes connected to the ceiling.
And the flies chewing on the imps sweetly, like baby birds receiving food from their mother bird.
… .
The long and ugly sacrificial feast is over.
And the flies here all at once developed ‘intelligence’.
bubbling… … .
With a seething sound, the flies began to pile themselves on top of each other. In an orderly manner and systematically. Just like building an ancient wonder building with clear blueprints.
The flies gathered together transformed into one huge fly.
Buried beneath the genes… … in the guise of their greatest ancestors.
《… .]
The adjutant looked up at the figure in rapture.
Booooooooo-!
The giant fly, made of hundreds of millions of flies, slowly stretched out its hundreds of legs to pick up the scepter from the floor.
From above its head grew like a crown – incredibly gigantic demonic horns.
the dirtiest one
the most lowly.
the most dishonest
The master of high dwelling, the maggot lord, the head of evil –
his name Baalzebub (בעל זבוב).
-Or
“Lord of the Flies.”
The lieutenant smiled as he looked up at the huge demon that had just finished metamorphosing and hatched.
“Gayo low.”
Hundreds of Lord of the Flies’ other legs flew at the adjutant. The adjutant did not escape.
《To end this world.》
thought the newly born devil, swallowing the shredded lieutenant into his stomach.
So no, I’ll be happy to go.
with royalties.
to the last wall.
All forts must be.
Because they exist to be attacked.
