Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 621
Chapter 621 There,
Where Does Monster Fear Come From? Is it because it shows the aspect of a predator with unthinkable ferocity and savagery?
That’s not wrong. Although the types and forms are different, fear of beasts existed even before monsters appeared.
then what is the problem
“Variety.”
It was a monster that suddenly appeared one day, literally with an unknown source, and it had properties and powers that could not be understood based on existing creatures and evolutionary grounds.
It had intelligence but no intellect, so it was fine when it was relatively simple to attack. Eventually you’ll get used to it, and the threats you’ll be able to counter will be the kind of thing you’ll be able to accept.
But this time it was different.
“After the golem throw, a bloodsucking colony. It’s a way to dig into the psychology.”
“that’s right. After a few people are stoned to death, they instinctively avoid it.”
Because behind the group of monsters were me and the executives.
A golem thrown several times. The guys who entered the castle wall threw something new while trying to open the castle gate.
This time it was relatively light, so it was possible to fly it even if it wasn’t a mountain golem, but to the guys in the city, it would have looked like stones flying.
The thing that came inside was broken even if it hit the building.
-Yi Yi Ying
-Boo Woo Woong!
Like bees pouring out of a broken beehive, bloodsuckers that have been terribly harassing those attacking the stage are scattered in all directions.
“Damn it! Bloodsuckers!”
“Why is this here! It has never been found before!”
“What are you watching, set fire to it! fire! Can’t you see they keep coming out?”
I can hear people screaming or yelling.
Those with fire-related skills burn down the broken bloodsuckers’ houses. Taking advantage of the brief disturbance and confusion, the golems moved.
– Kwaaaaang!
“The door is open! Don’t miss your chance!”
As soon as the tightly closed door opened, the knight gave instructions.
While the golems were blocking the enemies with their bodies, monsters with excellent mobility attacked.
To squeeze one’s body in before the short-lived path is blocked. After that, strong, big guys secure the passage.
Of course, this alone is not enough. Because the opponents weren’t stupid either.
“Shoot!”
-Kwaaaaaaang!
– Kwajajajajak!
At the hair loss man’s cry, the cannon that had been hiding on the roof of the building so far spewed fire.
Just as you are about to pass through the castle gate and enter the interior, a barrage formed as if besieging attacks the monster.
Literally kill.
The golems that had already entered first were in a half-destroyed state, and their armor, which ran quickly to clear the way, was insufficient to block the shells.
“You did a good job. The cannons were brought from the castle.”
“To that.”
I didn’t know it was prepared this far, but it’s not bad.
“Go upstairs and take the cannon.”
“All right!”
At my instruction, the monsters enter the building in pairs of dozens.
Setting up an encirclement meant installing cannons close to us. Others may be risking their lives to carry out operations, but it seemed to me an opportunity to obtain important war materials.
Of course, our side suffered great damage, but fortunately we did not lose the passage.
A tiger leaves a skin when it dies, and a golem leaves a stone when it dies.
“Take cover! obscuration!”
“The rear will soon be overpowered! You just have to watch your front!”
The survivors defended the passage by hiding behind the collapsed golem fragments.
The plan was to build a defensive line by defending the gate after wiping out the monsters that had entered, but it failed. I could ignore it and fire the cannon.
“If you do, the castle gate will collapse as well.”
I wouldn’t choose that. Now, monsters come in little by little through the door, but if you destroy it, they’ll come riding over the wreckage and pouring in.
Again, cannons cannot be fired beyond a certain boundary.
“This side will be broken soon.”
A weapon called a cannon boasts tremendous firepower if there are people around it who keep it safe, but it is useless if it is isolated alone.
It took a long time to reload compared to other weapons, and in that amount of time, the monsters had more than enough time to attack.
“Aaaaaagh!”
“Get out of the way! Go to the next line of defense!”
Those who held out to the end soon heard the order to retreat and fell back.
In order to protect the artillerymen, threatening shots and skills flew in from all directions, so they had time to regroup for a while without overdoing it.
“This is fun too.”
I crossed my arms and looked at the situation.
When will you have a siege with the hair loss man? In fact, I didn’t know if it would last this long.
Even though I belonged to the special lease team, that was to play in the field in a small group, and it was another thing to watch the whole situation from behind and give instructions.
Like me, the hair loss man also tends to play a lot on his own, so I thought that way more.
“I prepared a lot.”
Should I say that I have a plan in place to deal with whenever my plan goes wrong?
It may be the flexibility that came from going back and forth on the battlefield where variables constantly occur.
Well, I’ll win anyway. But that doesn’t mean I’m better.
“Guys, let’s break it all down. Wipe out the infrastructure first.”
“Oohhh!”
“Kyaaaaaaagh!”
The only difference was that the people led by the hair loss man were gathered in haste, and the monsters I commanded were faithful to their orders.
Besides, there are no worshipers on my side. Even though I’ve taken care of all the worshipers I can see up to this point, the cockroaches are still hiding somewhere.
I’m not sure what else he’s doing inside, but he won’t be able to move very freely.
Especially those who came down from the royal castle.
“Are you a knight! Stop talking nonsense and take the lead!”
“Do you know how many people died because of the guys you brought!”
“You’re not doing this on purpose? Otherwise, it makes no sense!”
Whenever the worshipers troll, they were killed and the pattern of the capital was left behind.
If it happens once or twice, it’s a coincidence, but if it happens repeatedly, you have no choice but to doubt it.
Aren’t those guys from the royal castle up to something else? Is it dangerous to be with you? What do these guys want? The moment you start thinking like this, trust is broken.
To equate the king with his worshipers. was aiming for this
Climbers are hostile to worshipers, but NPCs don’t have to. After all, they are also the ones who live in the tower.
In reality, they are different from each other, but they pretend to be the same enemy.
“Good.”
I stood on a high place and looked at the guys who were busy moving.
That’s enough of the goal, so let’s move on.
“Night finishing operation.”
“I see, lord!”
At my command, Phantom Knight leads the monsters.
All-out offensive.
An army of monsters poured into those waiting on the next line of defense.
-Puuuuuuuuu! phut!
-Puuuuuuu!
Fireworks arrows shot up into the sky. The sound of horns announcing the advance.
This is a signal to inform the hair loss man.
“Come in! Everyone is nervous!”
“We have to stop here! Block everything!”
He screams and swings his weapon at the monster that is screaming and rushing at him.
A short-lived struggle. The tightly built defense line fluctuates greatly, but it endures. That won’t be long either.
“Jukchang troops rush.”
“Hee-hee-eeing!”
When you snap your finger, a group of monsters called Devil Horns run at full speed.
Monsters split like the Red Sea. The players were puzzled by the sudden situation, but the question was soon solved.
“What crazy!”
“Strengthen! collide!”
It was because a horse with huge horns was running, wearing iron armor all over its body.
A crazy horse that runs until exhausted once it runs. The appearance of rushing forward with horns no different from spears is literally the bamboo spear unit.
With their heavy bodies and the weight of the iron armor wrapped around them, they are like four-legged missiles.
– Ting! Teeing!
I poked my spear through the shield to somehow slow it down, but at most a few of them got their eyes poked and fell face down, and they collided sooner or later.
-Quaaaaaaang!
-Kwaji Jijik!
“Haaaaaagh!”
“Aaaaaaa!”
Shields are bent and people bounce off like bowling pins. Devilhorn also had the majority of guys with broken necks, but it didn’t matter.
What you want has been achieved
The center of the defense line, which had been made solid, was pierced.
“charge.”
“Koooooooooo!”
“Ghaaaagh!”
The monsters that had retreated to the sides rushed in.
in. inside. Without caring about his life, he pushes in. The corpse becomes an obstacle, disturbing the feet, and the spilled blood makes the ground muddy.
The wounded monsters howled like beasts, and the players screamed in response as they struck down swords and axes.
Melee.
The guy from the mud fight will appear.
“…you can see it from a distance.”
He’s not a king on a white horse. Just a green chewy.
The Hair Loss Man appeared, tearing the rushing Orc with both hands.
* * *
Fend off the invasion.
Although it could not be called a complete victory, those who protected Hupenpedia survived.
Half of the city was destroyed, but the center, where the core facilities were concentrated, was intact, so the city’s functions did not stop.
There is no time to lament the joy of victory or the bad situation, and people are busy moving.
“Get it out of there. It is difficult to move materials.”
“There are masons! Do you think this one should be made strong?”
“No, it might be too late to suddenly fortify it! You guys bring some wood!”
The eastern area invaded by the Demon King’s army was destroyed, so a new wall had to be built.
It was a time-consuming task, but the work went smoothly because there were people with relevant skills.
“Whoa. It worked out somehow.”
The hair loss man who moved the log between them stole the sweat.
Who played the biggest role in this invasion. Without the hair loss man, it would have been impossible to protect this place.
I had time to fight alongside Evileye, but the battle was real. Clumsy acting was bound to get caught.
In particular, the damage increased due to the delay in dealing with the Phantom Knight, who intruded in the middle.
‘It seems like he watched it to some extent.’
The hair loss man who sneakily checked the people nodded slightly.
One large city was destroyed in half, and casualties were few. There were many injuries, but many players were not eliminated. Rather, there were many who gained experience points and leveled up from this battle.
The hair loss man will also soon reach level 50.
“Oh, why don’t you take a break? You must be tired.”
“lay down. Because we can do this.”
“What are you talking about? When we do, we do it together! ha ha ha!”
“People are really nice.”
“Let’s just rest together! hey! rest! rest time!”
Those who saw the bald man’s performance encouraged him to take a break, but he just laughed it off.
Thanks to that, the atmosphere softened and the break time came.
The casually seated people exchange food and catch their breath.
“I wish I had been a little more prepared.”
“If only the knights over there had done it properly, the damage would have been reduced by half, right?”
“So that is it. Since everything was being swept in front of me, I came out late. Aying.”
“I don’t know what you’re thinking in the castle. If you’re going to help, definitely help.”
“Aren’t these guys suspicious? You pulled it back and got caught last time too.”
“I heard something. I don’t know…” Maybe it
‘s because we had a hard fight together. Those who have formed a bond each spit out curses about the royal castle.
Knights who do not appear in front of the royal castle pattern that was on the dead after leaving the battlefield. There were not one or two suspicious things, and doubts created many rumors.
The truth is that the pattern of the capital was forged, and the knights were the main force of the capital, so there was an order to take care of safety as much as possible, but that was not important.
“I’m glad you’re here, though.”
“With something like this. I wish there were more other strong guys.”
“That’s right. Where are they? Those guys.”
The hair loss man who was quietly eating bread stares at the collapsed castle gate.
Those who looked back, wanting something, gave a small admiration.
“Oh yes.”
“Surely I wish they were there too.”
“It looks like we just pecked it.”
The expedition was returning.
