I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 684
◈ 684. [STAGE 40] Falling Slowly
a little while ago.
Southwest of Crossroads. Observation tower.
“Thank goodness you blocked the breath…”
Damian let out a sigh of relief.
I watched the Breath defense process with great nervousness, but fortunately, Crossroads survived safely.
Damian also consistently attempted long-distance sniping to block Breath, but because the distance was too far, the power of the magic bullets could not reach him properly, and all sniping attempts were in vain.
‘Anyway, I’m glad I was able to defend Breath. Now I can go back too…’
Damian, who was about to think that he should prepare for the final battle, was startled.
From beyond the vast darkness, the Night Bringer’s golden eyes…
were clearly ‘looking’ at this direction.
“…?!”
The next moment, the dark magic eye and clairvoyance collided.
For a moment, the perspectives of the monster and the human became intertwined. The eyes that see the darkness and the eyes that see the truth clash with each other, and sparks fly at the end of the gaze.
“The eyes that have been following me all this time are yours.”
It’s a distance where there’s no way your voice can be heard.
The black dragon’s thoughts flickered and struck Damian’s mind.
《Then you will have to pay the price now.》
“…!”
When Damian came to his senses, his tangled vision had already been resolved.
“Well, something…”
“It’s flying this way!”
The observers screamed as they spotted something approaching rapidly in the dark.
Damian was able to clearly see what it was.
“…These are the Night Bringer’s auxiliary heads.”
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
six heads.
The Night Bringer’s auxiliary head electric machine was shooting towards the observation tower here at an incredible speed.
The black dragon began to march its main body northward again, sending only its auxiliary heads flying to order an attack in this direction.
Needless to say, what these evil dragon heads were targeting were the humans in the observation tower. Damian shouted at the soldiers inside the observation tower.
“Everyone retreat! Go to the teleport gate immediately!”
The soldiers of the observation team began to descend the tower in a huff.
However, the teleport gate is on the first floor, and this is the top of the observation tower.
It takes several minutes just for everyone to go down the stairs. And the Night Bringer’s six auxiliary heads were shooting out like rockets.
‘As it is…!’
The heads of monsters flying at speed and the humans descending desperately but slowly.
Damian, who was trying to estimate the speed, gritted his teeth. If things continued like this, it was obvious that everyone would be caught and killed before they could escape.
‘then!’
Damian picked up the magic gun he had left on the floor.
In that case – there is no choice but to fight!
Slam!
The first gun is [Black Queen].
The strongest magic gun on earth and a purified Nightmare Slayer!
Toukwaang-!
After taking extremely quick aim, the muzzle burst into flames.
The magic bullet flew at a trajectory that could not have been more accurate and hit the center of the head that was flying in front.
Wow…!
The head of the leader, who had been hit by a magic bullet between the eyes, sprayed blood in all directions.
But-
Wow!
The leader’s head raised its huge mouth, grinning, and flew towards us at the same speed, even with blood pouring out from the gap between its eyebrows.
‘It’s not enough?!’
Damian gritted his teeth, put on his heat-resistant gloves, and grabbed the Black Queen.
“Then- how about this!”
Clap, clap, clap!
The gun barrel was transformed into a long rail and sparked a magical current.
At the same time, all the bullets that came out of the magazine spun in the air and merged into one bullet – fixed on the rail.
Nightmare Slayer Black Queen is ready to unleash her strongest attack performance. Damian pulled the trigger with a flash of light in his big brown eyes.
Tukwaaaaang!
Lightning struck.
A bullet was fired so powerful that the observation tower swayed due to the recoil of the launch. A pure white magic bullet stretched forward like a beam of light, cutting through the dark sky.
The huge magic bullet fired like a bolt of lightning pierced the lead of the heads that were strangely twisting in the air and flying towards the observation tower, and also
pierced all the remaining five heads that followed at once.
Phew! Wow…!
A few seconds after the magic bullet penetrated, all six heads began to gush out blood from their large, gaping wounds.
《Kaaaaaa-!》
All six heads opened their mouths wide and spit out blood and pain.
But – it doesn’t get shot down.
Since there were no more lives to lose or spirit cores to destroy, the six heads still rushed forward. It was just around the corner now.
‘But the damage was done!’
After throwing away the [Black Queen], which emits cloudy steam from the gun barrel, and the burnt heat-dissipating armor.
Damian then pulled out his horse gun.
‘Finish one by one!’
It was a horse gun with a part of the jawbone collected from Tustibean, the ‘black dragon’s molar’, attached to the end of the short barrel as decoration.
New equipment manufactured by combining SSR grade magic core and materials collected from the Black Dragon Corps.
A magic gun specializing in close combat that scatters bullets in the form of pellets –
called [Guillotine]!
Kwasik-!
Six heads pushed into the top floor of the observation tower at once.
The outer wall was shattered, and the evil dragon’s heads opened their mouths and opened their jaws to tear and swallow the victim.
And Damian, who was waiting, pulled the trigger.
Tuaang-!
Fireworks exploded with a loud explosion sound.
The shotgun [Guillotine], which has a magazine capacity of only two rounds, demonstrated absolute power in such close-quarters situations.
The head of the leader who broke through the wall first was torn off and turned into a rag.
‘There’s some kind of magic connected to the back of these heads’ brains! Night Bringer controls these things with this magic…’
Damian, who confirmed through clairvoyance that a transparent thread of magical power was connected between the brain area of the assistant head and the black dragon’s body, aimed at the magic connection point and fired a shotgun. And that judgment was correct.
The leader’s head, whose magic connection point had exploded, rolled on the floor and fell off.
At this moment the lead secondary head was clearly ‘dead’ –
and Damien went into hiding.
《…?!》
There was clearly an enemy gunner here.
It suddenly disappeared before my eyes. So the remaining five assistant heads who came inside the observation tower were confused.
‘It was eaten!’
Damian held his breath among the guys and looked down at the equipment he was wearing.
[Secret Dawn].
Damian was still wearing this thin armor set that Ash had given him a long time ago.
It was a magic armor that allowed you to remain hidden whenever you defeated an enemy. Although it was limited to only being activated once every 10 minutes, this one concealment was enough.
《?!》
《Grurg…?》
《Grrr…》
The five assistant heads looked around in confusion.
If it had been the black dragon itself, it would have immediately detected this level of hiding and revealed Damian’s location.
The ones sent here are already dead heads.
It is nothing more than an auxiliary body that is inferior to the main body in everything and merely carries out the orders of the main body.
The heads were unable to figure out Damian’s hiding for a moment, and during this short gap, Damian was able to fully prepare.
Your ultimate skill – [Confrontation]!
‘I’m pouring it all out at once!’
hook…!
Damian lifted all his magic guns into the air.
[Cerberus].
[woodpecker].
[Hunter’s Retribution].
[Venom Fang].
[Guillotine].
And once again, [Black Queen] loaded the [Magic Bullet of Destruction] created with her own magic power!
Damian grabbed the handle in the right order as the magic gun floated in the air fell to eye level and pulled the trigger.
Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tatang-!
Regardless of whether it was a handgun, submachine gun, long gun, or shotgun, they pulled the trigger with whatever they could get their hands on and fired in all directions as if they were dancing.
In an instant, Damian’s magic bullets poured down like rain in all directions.
The five auxiliary heads of the black dragon were completely hit by this barrage of magic bullets. The magic bullets persistently targeted only the monster’s brain and the point where the control magic was connected.
The black dragon’s auxiliary heads, which had been pierced, pierced, and torn to pieces, stretched out their tongues one after another and fell out.
Taaaaaang…!
After the last gunshot rang out for a long time.
“Ha ha ha ha!”
Damian knelt on one knee on the floor and let out a heavy breath.
The top floor of the observation tower was in tatters as a result of the auxiliary heads’ hand-to-hand assault and bullet marks from the barrage of bullets fired from within. It was already on the verge of collapse.
There were no more moving monsters on the upper floors of this hideously destroyed building.
Damian clutched his arms, which were shaking from the sudden depletion of mana. I wiped away the cold sweat that had soaked into my forehead with my hand.
“Ugh…”
Perhaps because I was concentrating too much, bloody tears flowed down my bloodshot eyes. My vision kept getting blurry and it went dark repeatedly.
‘Still, I finished off all of the Black Dragon’s auxiliary heads… If I do this, my side will have an advantage in the decisive battle that will follow…’ Although it was
unintentional, it looked like it had lured the auxiliary heads and defeated them individually.
If the black dragon’s body wanted to, it could retrieve these and bring them back to life, but it would have been a lot of work anyway.
Damian, who had finally stabilized his breathing, slowly stood up. He then counted the number of black dragon auxiliary heads lying around him.
‘One, two, three, four, five…’
And the last one…
Damian found a hole in the floor.
The last head, hit by a magic bullet, hit the floor violently, showing signs of falling downstairs.
Damian stumbled and tried to look down, but the next moment he felt something intuitively and rolled back.
Kwasik-!
Immediately afterwards, the last head rose up from under the floor, clenching its jaws violently. Debris from the floor exploded and flew in all directions.
‘what?! It doesn’t make sense, I definitely did it-‘
The back of the last head was visible to Damian’s eyes as he slowly fell backwards.
The part of the brain that Damien had shot was intact and the magic string still remained.
‘Maybe it wasn’t enough power…!’
They poured all the magic power and bullets they had into knocking down the heads, but among them, guns with low power were clearly mixed in.
Damian tried to distribute bullets and accurately take down everyone without overkill, but there were limits.
This last head was hit heavily by magic bullets from [Woodpecker] and [Cerberus], and although it was briefly suppressed, it did not receive enough damage to cause death.
And now they started counterattacking the gunner who was out of ammunition.
Kwasik! Quack! Kwazizig!
The last head that returned to the top floor of the tower savagely opened its jaws and tried to chew Damian up and swallow him.
“Huh?!”
I tried to crawl backwards, but was eventually cornered. Damian gritted his teeth and prepared for death.
The moment the jaws of the last head that flew in clicked together and chewed the floor of the top floor –
kuwagwagwang!
Perhaps because of the impact, the tower began to collapse.
The collapsed floor suddenly fell, and Damian fell down, narrowly avoiding the monster’s jaws.
Coogung! Coogung! Kugugugugung…!
Following the top floor, the entire tower began to collapse from top to bottom.
‘If you want to live… ‘I have no choice but to jump!’
Damian’s eyes widened in the collapsing building to see where all the debris was falling, and he kicked the wall his foot touched.
Taaa-!
Damian fell down from the falling tower, narrowly avoiding large debris falling from all directions.
The last head followed closely behind Damian and smashed all the stones at the bottom of the pillar it encountered.
Still, when the distance did not close, the last head opened its huge jaw wide. Black magical power condensed between the open mouth.
“…!”
Shocked, Damian urgently stretched his left arm to the side. Then the small hook on his left arm was fired and caught on the opposite wall.
Sigh!
It was a hook launcher, an auxiliary equipment used a long time ago.
As a sniper, securing a blind spot is important, so I had one equipped to move positions… and this saved Damian’s life.
Sigh!
Damien’s body twisted its trajectory sharply along the line attached to the hook.
“Keuuuuuuu!”
I was hit all over my body by pieces of wood and glass that fell together, but I was still able to escape to the other side.
And the black magical fire spewed out by the last head poured into the orbit where Damian originally fell.
Grumbling –
Kugwagwagwang!
The observation tower, which had managed to maintain its shape even after collapsing, literally burst apart.
Damian ducked into the wall next to him and covered his head with his arms. By pure luck, there was a glass window there.
Clang-!
Damian, who broke the glass and was thrown out of the tower, fired the hook recovered from his left arm towards the tower again.
grasp! Sigh!
A crack widened in the stone wall where the hook was attached. But Damian didn’t care.
The ground was already close. It was enough to just slow down the fall.
Damian’s body flew toward the tower again and landed on the wall of the first floor of the tower.
Wow!
“Ahhh…!”
I tried to offset it with the magical power I managed to raise, but the impact was enormous.
Even though the tower wasn’t that high, I fell from the top, and to slow down my fall, I hit the wall with my hook.
The left arm, where the hook launcher was attached, was torn to shreds, and the shoulder was probably dislocated and could not be moved.
‘But I survived…’
Damian, who managed to get his crushed body back together, gritted his teeth and stood up.
‘Go to the teleport gate like this…!’
and.
Kugwagwang-!
The last head that protruded from the collapsed tower shattered the teleport gate installed at the tower’s entrance.
Damian had a blank look on his face as he watched the magic stone fragments flying in all directions. The last head raised its mouth evilly as it faced Damian.
“Ah…”
Damian’s legs lost strength and he slumped down in place.
A pain that I had never felt before spread throughout my body.
‘It’s the end…’
He realized that everything was truly over.
The last head, perhaps sensing the despair of its prey, leisurely crossed the air and slowly approached.
Damian quietly watched his end approaching.
Tuk.
at that time.
Something touched the tip of my weakened right hand.
I looked down blankly and saw that it was a pistol-type horse gun called Cerberus. One of the three sacks was half broken and lying on the floor next to it.
“….”
Damian grabbed the pistol with trembling hands.
Then, he loaded the magic bullet with the last bit of magical power he had left and placed the muzzle of the gun under his chin.
Rather than die being ridiculed by monsters, it would be better to commit suicide cleanly.
thud! thud! thud!
Is it because my heart is racing too much?
I had the illusion that the ground beneath me was shaking violently.
Damian swallowed dry saliva that tasted like blood.
“….”
Just pull the trigger and feel comfortable.
But… courage.
“Kuh…”
It wasn’t easy for me to find the courage to commit suicide.
Damian’s big brown eyes filled with tears.
Boom, googoo goong…!
The whole world shook and the sound of collapsing rang out.
The wide open mouth of the last head approached. A wet, unpleasant warmth covered Damien’s bloody body.
Damian closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.
Then, I mustered up all my remaining courage and strengthened the finger holding the trigger.
