Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 122
Episode 122
“Fortunately, it looks like the Duke of Jordan won’t be doing any more tricks.”
“I don’t think that’s the right thing to do. Now, even the elites are clashing with each other in earnest.”
Logan sarcastically responded to his father’s words.
In fact, if he had the strength, he would send assassins again and again.
Three months have passed since the midnight attack.
It’s already been half a year since the civil war began.
The center of the front line, which stretched north and south, gradually moved to the center.
and.
“Yeah. They’re being pushed back, so they probably don’t have the energy to care about us.”
Now, no matter who sees it, the 2nd Prince faction is clearly being pushed back.
The 2nd Prince faction, which suffered losses in one large battle, was repeatedly pushed back from the central front, and eventually managed to prevent further pushback from the twin castles, which were the border between the western Waltermeim territory and the King’s direct territory.
It was as if he could barely show his strength and hold on until he came to his front yard.
And one of the twin castles was taken away.
“Prince Romaine or the Duke of Jordan probably feel like grinding our entire family to dust.”
McLane occupied Bipros Castle and occupied all five castles under its influence and suppressed them.
From Bipros’s perspective, no matter how many elite troops were preserved, it was as if the assets that would support it, namely the supply line, had been cut off.
In such a situation, in order to maintain the power of Bipros, the supply had to be borne by other factions of the Two Princes faction.
‘The Two Princes faction, which would have been defeated in the end, ended up tilting faster.’
It was a natural flow and consistent with Logan’s intentions.
Worries that the tide would turn too quickly before the family was ready were unfounded.
Recently, the leaders of both factions took a breather again, and it was also because the people of the McLane family were rather infuriated due to the incident three months ago.
And thanks to you….
“As a knight, I shouldn’t say this, but thanks to the civil war, our family ended up becoming much bigger.”
Just as my father said, the family’s power was truly on track.
Thanks to the recruitment of knights from small and medium-sized families that had collapsed, the number of knights surpassed the level before the attack on Tomodo Castle and exceeded 170.
The remaining 700 crossbow cavalrymen had surpassed their original size and were maintaining a capacity of 1,500, including more than double the number of knight trainees.
The number of regular soldiers continued to increase to over 3,500.
Of course, there are differences in the level and quality of training of soldiers, but in terms of scale, it has already far surpassed the previous McLine.
In addition, the number of people who volunteered as village vigilantes and received regular training in ten provinces, eight provinces and two towns to be exact, was almost 10,000, and the number was still gradually increasing.
‘It’s not enough to use for an expedition yet, but it’s more than enough for Mercury.’
Moreover.
Ugh.
The lightly used force took the form of a small blade at the fingertips.
Force Blade. The power represented at the highest level did not simply mean the blade of the Force.
Beyond amplifying the power of weapons or bodies with the Force, the Force itself exerts physical power.
A state where the force itself becomes a weapon and armor.
Logan was now completely accustomed to that state.
“Hehe. It seems like you’ve gotten better than me.”
“Not to that extent.”
Logan responded to his father’s humility with an awkward smile.
In fact, I was familiar with the level, but I had no idea about the 4th type of flame splitting (暴炎斬 heat wave slash) of the secret sword.
‘But even to this extent…’
All of the planned preparations were proceeding much faster than expected.
I actually felt like thanking the Duke of Jordan for sending them.
“So now I have to start using it properly. I hope it comes out sooner.”
“Huh? What do you use? Can you possibly…?”
Padrick’s smiling face hardened.
Instead of answering, Logan raised his head and looked at the northeastern sky.
“We must end the civil war.”
“…Finish what?”
“War.”
“Son. I know you are encouraged, but even so, our family’s strength is compared to the entire kingdom’s strength…”
Even in his father’s urgent voice, Logan’s smile did not disappear, and soon he heard that the final wait was also over. I heard it.
“You finished it?!”
“Wow, it’s not finished, it’s just a prototype, master. It’s not a good habit to put pressure on yourself like that. That’s…” “
Where is it? In the magic tower?!”
bang.
“What a bad habit…”
Sigh.
Hamar looked at the door that had already closed and let out a long sigh.
“Who am I talking to now…”
* * *
“Ugh…”
“Where does it hurt? Stop moaning.”
“They live even if something goes wrong, right? Are you going to live because you’re so sad for a helpless dwarf? Mr….”
“Why did you drag me to a place like that, Workshop Manager? Yes?”
“Noisy! I can’t just die. You helped make that too!”
“You didn’t even tell me what it was, you just ordered it to be manufactured! But you dragged me to a place like this…”
“You two, shut up!”
“Sigh!”
“Are you all done… Sigh!”
Where else would you bring a child just like you?
Oh, did I buy it?
Logan looked back and forth between Hamar and the one-armed dwarf, who did exactly the same thing as Hamar, and sighed softly.
However, even if I had to beat him up, the timing and situation were not good right now, so I decided to be satisfied with just letting out my murderous spirit and making the two dwarves shut up.
Clayton, who was looking around while ignoring the scene, paused for a moment and then sent a signal to Logan.
“I found it. Goblin.”
“Everyone be quiet.”
The group hiding on the tree stopped as much as possible at that word, even the slightest movement.
Far below the tree, in the direction Clayton pointed, a group of goblins were walking towards where they were.
There were only about six goblins, the lowest level monsters. If Clayton or Logan here came forward, they could have killed them with just a wave of their hand, but the problem was where they were now.
“Master. Do you really need to conduct an experiment here? If they die and the noise spreads, they will pour out in droves, right?”
This is a place where Hamar’s trembling behavior is understandable.
“So! Why did we have to follow you to the Southern Mountains!”
Tamer’s voice, which was very quiet but full of emotion, was also worthy of fear.
Now, the entire forest beneath the mountain range has been cut down to build McLane Town.
They were at the beginning of the southern mountain range called Magyeong.
Just to find the lowest level monster.
“They say the monsters that live here should be considered a level higher than those elsewhere…”
“Why…”
“Do you want to do this?”
“….”
Only then did the dwarves shut up.
If there was a defect in the ‘prototype’, I brought it in because the developer had to see and feel it for himself, but now it was becoming more and more annoying.
“If you talk one more time, I will give you the opportunity to experience the power of the product up close and even point out its shortcomings. In a special seat where you can even feel the monster’s breath.”
Only after seeing the dwarves’ faces turn blue did Logan nod towards Clayton.
OK.
Ugh.
Clayton’s mana moved, and a golem the size of a person appeared in an instant a little distance from the ground under the tree they were under.
A very small and weak golem compared to Clayton’s level.
Therefore, even if it was smashed, the golem, which contained only the minimum amount of mana that would hardly cause damage to him, stood up holding the blue stones in both hands that had been placed at the point where it was created.
“Kyarat!”
“Karararak!”
Eventually, when the goblins who discovered the golem began to run at once, a slight force was applied to the golem’s grip holding the blue stone.
Then, without hesitation, he threw a blue stone that had already turned red at the running goblins.
Logan and the others watched without even holding their breath.
The wait until the red stone left the golem’s grasp and reached right in front of the goblins felt infinitely long.
and.
Perfect!
“Kk?! Kyaaruk? Pukyakkak!”
When the goblin, who had dodged the red stone, pointed at the golem and burst out laughing, everyone frowned and sighed.
But soon.
Wow!!
With a loud roar, a space measuring nearly 5 m2 near the red stone was engulfed in flames along with a strong shock wave.
“Kiyooook!”
Five goblins were instantly killed by the shock wave, and only one goblin a short distance away escaped immediate death, but screamed in pain as it burned in flames.
“Kya…le.”
Before even taking a few steps, he collapsed and stretched out his hands in vain into the air a few times before immediately lowering his head.
No matter how monsters are, the way they desperately seek life until the end gave the viewer a sense of guilt that I don’t know why.
Among them, the number one assailant clenched his fists and cheered.
“nice!”
“….”
“….”
“….”
“What? Why?”
When the group looked at him with a frown on their faces, Logan rolled his eyes.
The worn-out mercenary from his previous life did not feel any sympathy for the monster.
Rather, I was only pleased with the power of the bomb Liberatio, which burns and blows away even the poison of the monster.
“Oh no.”
“I just need to shorten the activation time a little. About 0.5 seconds?”
“…I will keep this in mind.”
“I heard this noise, so the goblins will come soon. I’m sure you have enough supplies, right?”
“…yes.”
Logan sighed at the slightly slow response and glared coldly at the group.
“The monsters are as helpful to the world as they are gone. Don’t think nonsense. The same goes for Clayton. Someone who knows well…” “
…Of course, Logan.”
Wow.
When Clayton clears his throat a half beat later and expresses his agreement.
– Kira strategy! Kira strategy!
Not far away in the forest, a familiar noise began to grow louder.
The power of a single shot was already confirmed in an experiment a while ago.
What needed to be checked now was to check the increase or decrease in power due to the interaction when multiple shots were used overlapping or simultaneously in a wide space.
And the result was also satisfactory.
Boom!
Kkwagwagwagwang!
“Kyaaaaaak!!”
About 300 goblins who rushed out after hearing the death of their compatriots were killed by only about 100 bombs.
Among them was a hobgoblin, which was classified as a low-level monster, but it also could not withstand the chain reaction of two bombs.
It only took about an hour to subdue one goblin village.
Most of that was just waiting for them to come.
Of course, there were some variables in the process.
“Confucius. A fire is spreading in the forest.”
“That’s good. There’s no way all the monsters will burn to death, right?”
“The monsters that flew away from their home will come down the mountain.”
“turn off! Put out the fire quickly!”
The unexpected firefighting efforts were nothing more than a failure.
[Kyaaaaaa!]
An unfamiliar roar heard from a mountain deeper than the entrance of the Southern Mountain Range. The
commotion at the entrance of the mountain range was a sign of the sleep of a predator deep in the depths. It seemed to have woken up.
It made Logan and Clayton, who had been laughing after dealing with the goblins, stiffen.
“Hey! Jump!”
But the dwarves were unable to move, their expressions turning pale with a dazed expression.
“Holy shit!”
Just by roaring from afar, this monster made the complexion of a wizard on the same level as Logan, the highest-level force user, tremble and blew away the spirit of the criminal. .
I didn’t want to check what kind of monster that was.
Logan hurriedly picked up the dwarves and started running, and Clayton also hurriedly followed, using the maximum movement magic he could, Land Slide.
Just like that . After escaping from the southern mountains like lightning, the roaring stopped and the group could breathe a sigh of relief.
“Whew. Thank you for your hard work, Clayton. Good job Hamar.”
Logan’s praise was sincere.
The bomb created with only materials and experiences without any information seemed to be more effective than the one Logan had used in his previous life.
‘From what I felt, it was more than 30% better.’
Another new weapon was created to overcome the threat of the empire.
“I feel this once again, but the level of efficiency is truly ridiculous. “This is really…”
Even though it was something he had created, Clayton was busy admiring it with a bewildered expression.
The power of Bomb Liberatio is at the level of a class 2 magic.
However, its cost is 50, which is about 1/20 of a class 1 scroll. It was only gold.
The biggest reason why most countries could not mobilize scrolls for war.
It was a revolutionary invention that eliminated the fundamental problem.
“But why do you look like that?”
“…It’s just greed. I wonder what it would be like if this item was made entirely with my own skills. Haha, it’s an old man’s complaint.”
Clayton couldn’t be completely happy because the source of the item was other people’s experiences and other people’s data.
“Haha. To be honest, I was looking forward to it from the beginning, but the product came out even better than I expected. It’s much better than anything I’ve ever used. You have created a work of art. Be proud of yourself, Clayton.”
“Master. That’s me too…”
“No. I actually received a lot of help from looking at that material. What this object contains is only a small portion of that knowledge. “If I understand the data properly, I will be able to produce not only this item but many other magical items much more cheaply.”
Logan’s eyes lit up at Clayton’s words.
Although he can’t say it out loud, that’s what Logan really wanted.
Rivera Tio has great combat utility, but in some ways it is only a very small branch.
“You will be able to do enough. This alone will completely change the face of war in the future.”
“Thank you for your encouragement.”
“Master. My skills…”
“Then how long will it take to correct the shortcomings and start production in earnest?” ”
…Hey!”
“I just need to adjust the ingredient content, so a week will be enough.”
“Then, please try a little harder. I’ll give it to you.”
“Hey! Hey guys .. hey guys! I am?! How much trouble did I go through…”
“Hamar, you did well too.”
“Thank you, Lord Hamar, for your hard work.”
“Huh huh…”
There was no way he could bow down and accept me.
‘I have to turn this over completely. The wizard will do this. Do you think you’ve done everything? The pride of a craftsman…’
Hamar’s complexion turns red with resentment.
“I…!”
“If I achieve the target quantity, I’ll get a month’s vacation as a reward.”
“…Work hard. I will try my best to finish it as quickly as possible, master.”
A sudden change in attitude.
Temar, who had been watching him from the beginning, snorted as if he was dumbfounded, but Hamar only smiled despite knowing that.
‘You don’t know yet, you bastard.’
A 20-year slave contract.
Only three years had passed, but it felt like 30 years had passed.
So, when the demon master said he would give him a vacation, he had to take it quickly.
If he ran amok there, even that vacation was in the name of dwarven romance. Because it can turn into packed labor time.
‘That’s as long as a month!’
For workers who suffered from harsh labor 24/7, vacation was more important than pride.
