I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 742

742. [STAGE 45] Operation Carpet Treatment

“What would happen if we poured this treatment on zombie monsters… That’s what you wanted to ask, right?”

I nodded heavily and Rosetta scribbled a recipe for a cure on a piece of parchment on her desk and handed it to me.

“That’s just my opinion. majesty.”

“huh.”

“I think you should make a generous donation to our temple this time.”

I grinned, took the recipe, and shouted to the outside of the temple.

“Assemble all production union members and heroes! Right Now!”

***

In the zombie apocalypse genre, the one thing that ultimately saves the world is a cure.

I didn’t know that they would devise a tactic by ‘pouring’ the cure.

“Explaining the name of Operation Carpet Curing!”

I shouted to the heroes gathered in the drawing room.

“Mass-produce the secured zombie plague cure and pour it on the heads of the advancing zombie monster army!”

All the heroes are looking at me with dumbfounded expressions. I grinned and tapped the blackboard.

“It’s a similar principle to defeating undead monsters with holy magic. “The disease is eliminated with medicine.”

“No… Anyway…”

I continued to explain to the confused heroes.

“Oral administration of the treatment is the most reliable method, but verification results showed that it was effective just by applying it to the skin.”

Because we had a large number of patients, we were able to observe the process of the treatment using various methods.

Mikhail, who was listening to the story next to him, swallowed back tears.

“We, the Sky Knights… are used to being experimented on…”

No, saying that makes me sound like trash…?

I cleared my throat and pointed at the strategy outline drawn on the blackboard with my cane.

“So the main thrust of this defensive battle is as follows!”

Bang bang!

They spoke one after another while tapping on the blackboard.

“first! The mass-produced cure is poured onto the heads of the monsters advancing towards the Crossroads. second! Repeat this process until you reach the field in front of the crossroads. third! Clear out the remaining zombie remnants. end!”

I lowered my cane and looked around the audience.

“Do you have any questions?”

Immediately Lucas raised his hand. I nodded.

“Tell me, model student.”

“My lord. “Is there a way to produce such large quantities of treatment?”

As expected, my tackler role is to tackle difficult points and come in right away.

“I understand that the cure is effective against those infected with the zombie plague. However, in order to have a clear effect, a certain amount of the necessary treatment must be administered, and I do not believe that we can produce enough medicine in this short period of time to administer to all those monsters.”

“Good point Lucas.”

I nodded.

“That was the part that was a bit difficult… I think we need to make sure this part is clear before we tackle the issue of mass producing the treatment.”

I glanced south.

The direction of the huge army of zombie monsters that are probably advancing at this time.

“As a result of analysis, the size of the zombie monster army currently advancing towards Crossroads is approximately 100,000.”

“…!”

The color drained from their faces when they heard the exact number.

Of all the monster armies I have faced so far, the Goblin army was the largest.

(In terms of simple numbers, it is Lord of the Flies, but this bastard was combined into one and was irregular in one way or another, so let’s leave it out of the discussion.)

At the time of Stage 15, the number of goblin troops that almost captured Crossroads was approximately 50,000.

Zombie monsters, whose individual weight and power are much higher than those of the goblins, are coming in more than twice the number.

Of course, the goblin army at the time had an outstanding commander, Kali-Alexandr, and the goblins were a complete army that was extremely well-trained even though their individual specifications were poor.

On the other hand, although this zombie army’s individual specifications are high, it is literally nothing more than a horde of zombies that cannot move as an army at all.

‘Even so, 100,000.’

It’s an unbelievable scale. If you look at the destructive power of the corps itself, it is at an all-time high.

“In the first place, it would be impossible to stop as many monsters as me by bombarding them with medical treatments.”

However, it also doesn’t make sense to just deal with it with gunpowder bombing.

I decided that the most effective solution was this tactic.

“So basically, the first effect we are trying to achieve by bombarding this treatment is to ‘weaken’ them.”

“Weakened….”

“okay. And the verification results showed that this ‘weakening’… is sufficiently possible even with a diluted treatment.”

Yes.

Dilute the remedy in water. Just like adding water to espresso to make an Americano!

‘Isn’t it enough to drink it deliciously and just wake up?’

If people in Earth-Italy heard this, they would have been hemorrhaging blood, but I am a member of the proud Korean-minded group. I have no qualms about diluting it!

“When the diluted treatment was applied, it was confirmed that the infected person lost a significant amount of control over his or her body, even though the zombie parasite did not die. To put it simply, the combat power of zombies will drastically decrease.”

I poked the map attached to the side of the blackboard with my wand.

“So, for the next two days until they reach the Crossroads, we will continue to carefully apply a thin layer of diluted treatment on their heads.”

When cleaning mold, can I just pour the bleach solution into it? It’s a waste, isn’t it? You have to dilute it in water and clean it repeatedly to save on bleach and keep your bathroom clean.

“And we destroy all the remaining ones who arrived in front of the Crossroads in this weakened state.”

I immediately turned my head to the side.

“Of course, even if it is diluted, the fact that the treatment must be mass-produced does not change. Currently, all priests and wizard alchemists from the temple are working together to produce and clone a cure for zombies.”

Lily and the Alchemist’s Guild leader looked at me and nodded.

What’s so good about magic? You have the power to turn these ridiculous orders from your boss into reality.

Fortunately, various potion ingredients, which can be considered raw materials for treatment, are piled up as support supplies from all over the world. Two days of vigil is enough to create a cure.

“Since the cure is in liquid form, our Mermaid King will use the power of the mermaid tribe to help us replicate the cure even though he is in pain.”

King Poseidon, who was leisurely watching a meeting in a portable bathtub, pointed to himself in confusion.

“Wait, you mean me? “Am I still sick?”

I nodded calmly.

“King Poseidon. “Aren’t you still a youthful youth?”

“That’s right. “I still want to live as a young person.”

“They say youth is supposed to be a bit painful. are you okay. let’s go.”

“…?”

Serenade with a smiling face appeared behind the mobile bathtub of King Poseidon, who had a blank face.

“Shall we go, Mermaid King?”

“uh? “Huh?”

Serenade grabbed the bathtub handle and rolled out.

The alchemists who were waiting grabbed King Poseidon from the left and right and disappeared somewhere. King Poseidon’s belated scream echoed through the mansion’s hallway and disappeared.

‘Let’s use our strength one last time before retirement, King Poseidon.’

I was nodding my head inwardly, but I saw someone raise their hand again.

It was Hannibal and the spiritists. When I gestured, Hannibal carefully looked around and said.

“Hey, Your Highness. I think we can help with replicating the liquid treatment…”

“Is it a water spirit? good. “Please do me a favor, Hannibal.”

After completing the meeting regarding mass production and cloning of treatments.

I raised my voice to the rest of the heroes.

“But weakening the zombie monsters like this doesn’t mean the battle is over. In the end, we must withstand the bombardment of the cure and personally destroy the monsters that have come to the front of the Crossroads.”

Tension flashed across the heroes’ faces.

“Especially because the current wall south of Crossroads is not in good condition. “For those of you who have to fight them directly, you must be very worried.”

When I spoke, everyone nodded slightly.

In the end, repairs to the southern wall were not completed. Although it maintains its form, it is considered impossible to function as an actual castle wall.

Will the repairs be completed by the final battle, let alone this defensive battle? This is a worrying situation.

So how do you deal with the zombie wave in this situation?

“In order to solve this very problem, people of this race and the blacksmith shop have been working hard.”

Kelly Bay, who was listening to the story, said Mmmmm! I nodded. Verdandi and Kuilan were looking dissatisfied at the back of the bald dwarf who was showing off his pride.

The rest of the heroes blinked in confusion, not knowing what was going on. I grinned.

“Come on, my heroes.”

I took out new drawing materials and posted them on the blackboard, feeling like Santa distributing gifts to children at Christmas.

“I will introduce the ‘new wall’ of our monster front that we have been building!”

Flap…!

Materials attached to the blackboard.

When they saw the bird’s eye view of the ‘New Wall’ and how it worked, all the heroes who had never heard of it opened their mouths.

“What…”

“That doesn’t make sense.”

“No way is that…!”

Great reaction! This taste is better than a new product presentation!

I glanced at the bird’s eye view posted on the blackboard, unable to hide the smile on my face.

‘As expected, the guy who destroyed it should take responsibility and sacrifice his body to restore it.’

That’s the way the world is.

Isn’t that right, Night Bringer?

***

Mass production and cloning of the treatment proceeded smoothly.

In particular, an unexpected hit was Hannibal.

As a result of Hannibal’s spirit draw with [Mountain Spirit’s Axe]…

flashing!

“Rainbow colors again?!”

Is it the Spirit King again? Really, your luck in picking Hannibal is crazy?! If I have to pick anything from now on, I’ll leave it all to him!

And what was summoned… was the Spirit King of Water who appeared at the perfect timing!

“This month’s salary bonus is 100%, Hannibal.”

“Hehe… I just got lucky.”

In this way.

First, thanks to the power of the Mermaid King, who was struggling, and the cooperation of the Water Spirit King, the amount of medicine that had already been prepared was multiplied several times at once.

I don’t know how the liquid is manipulated to replicate the cure, but long live magic! Oh well, the cure can be copied!

Once sufficient supplies were ready, La Mancha immediately prepared to fly south once again. Fatigue was building up in the aircraft and pilot due to continuous flights, but the situation was urgent.

The air force mobilized for this ‘carpet treatment’ operation is La Mancha and…

“Are you going to be okay?”

“Of course, Prince Ash.”

Mikhail smiled and adjusted the reins of his griffon. And there were about 20 griffons.

All of the Sky Knights were receiving treatment at the temple, but only half of the griffons were infected and the rest were fine. Mikhail first suggested using this healthy griffon for a medical treatment bombing operation.

“It must be difficult to control over 20 gryphons by yourself.”

“My griffon is also the leader of the group.”

Mikhail patted his chest.

“Griffon blood flows through my heart. don’t worry. “I will lead you well.”

“….”

“And griffons are very smart animals. “We should be able to do the spraying of the treatment without difficulty.”

I was worried about the success or failure of the operation and Griffon, but I was also worried about Mikhail.

Last time I lost all my subordinates, and this time I almost lost all my new subordinates and my wife. Even if I rest and take care of my wives at the temple, I cannot say anything.

“I’m a king now too, Ash. “I am in a position where I have to protect the lives of all my countrymen who are waiting in their homeland in the north.”

Mikhail showed a more adult-like smile on his still young face.

“And in order to protect my country, I must first protect this front line. “I know it well.”

“….”

“Then I’ll come back.”

After a short salute, I quietly watched Mikhail board the La Mancha with the griffons.

At the time, I seemed like a childish child, but before I knew it, I had grown up so much.

“…Everyone is growing up so much.”

Everyone, regardless of age or gender, is growing taller in their hearts as they face the trials they face here on the front lines.

Once this winter is over and all invasions are over.

Will I be able to see each person complete their growth?

“….”

After gathering thoughts about the still distant future.

After watching the airship leaving the hangar and making sorties until the end, I turned around.

The operation was established. The route was confirmed.

Now all that’s left is to hit with all your might.

“Then let’s get ready to welcome guests!”

In line with the zombie march coming from the south.

It was time to prepare for Crossroads’ famous Trap Festival, which our monster customers love to death.
