Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 179 Chapter

57 Sacrifice (4)

The battle of the barrier continued and the high sun gradually tilted its head.

The situation on the front seemed similar, but as time went on, the human side was at a disadvantage.

This is because human forces are limited compared to the monster army, which can be replenished even if it dies. This was more a matter of morale than simply a battle of numbers.

Uncertainty about the victory of my comrades next to me as they die one by one from the endless army of monsters. If this continues to build up, the battle will be lost even without fighting until the end.

Aside from their accumulated experience and training, there were three reasons why the soldiers and knights of the current wall were able to endure.

First, the existence of Ampere.

The steadfastness that alone guards the gates of the Ikkitousen barrier. Because he holds the center of the wall with his overwhelming skills, other troops are able to withstand this fight.

Even if the battle in front of you is difficult and cruel, if you look back just a little and look at Ampere, you can see him calmly dispatching an incomparable tidal wave of enemies.

Secondly, the Knights of Roach and their leader Sylvain.

Sylvain gives orders to each knight of the knights, and the knights give instructions to the soldiers at the right place and convey tactics. Send soldiers with extremely low physical strength back, encourage soldiers who are still healthy, and quickly create and communicate future actions to prevent soldiers from thinking about unnecessary things. The stairs to victory are high, long, and difficult, but climbing the one step in front of you is not difficult.

And third.

“…That one. “Are you on our side?”

Some of the soldiers who had fallen back for a moment to conserve their stamina were looking at a scene. I am completely out of my mind while fighting, but when I take a breather, I can see the situation on the battlefield.

And what I saw then was very different from what I imagined while swinging the weapon in front of my eyes.

“…You’re killing monsters. “He’s probably on our side.”

“Isn’t that another monster?”

“….”

Just by looking at the soldiers who cannot immediately deny it, you can see that the sight they are seeing is very strange.

There was something black on the wall.

It was similar to the black monster that had been tormenting them a while ago, but it had a human form, and the occasionally revealed body and face even felt somewhat familiar.

one.

Keyeeee!!

Whether they were running away or going crazy and attacking, when the man stretched out his hand, all the black monsters lost their form and were sucked into him.

And what became the black liquid stayed around the man like armor, sometimes like a weapon, or like a cloak.

The soldiers were speechless at the sight of the black monster that had been threatening humans just a moment ago, turning into liquid a few seconds later and attacking other monsters.

Ampere, who was fighting in front of the castle gate, briefly turned his attention to the man who had absorbed so much black liquid that he had become huge, but soon focused on cutting down the pouring monsters.

On the other hand, Frontier, the identity of that black thing.

‘Such a waste.’

He was disappointed that he could not handle all the fragments he had absorbed.

It is certain that mana is replenished through black monsters, but as the amount of fragments that must be dealt with increases, more mana is needed than can be replenished. Therefore, if it exceeded a certain limit, the fragments had no choice but to be discarded.

‘If a new black lotus had arrived, it could have swallowed it all up.’

However, its completion will probably take a few more days even after Selena arrives.

Being able to absorb the black monster today was an unexpected achievement. Today, Frontier came simply to participate in the battle of the barrier and save as many people as possible.

It would be a later matter to head to the fragments of Helheim, which are as large as a lake somewhere unseen beyond this barrier.

‘You have to distribute mana well.’

Now, Frontier’s main attack was being carried out by Heukcheon. Even without making any special weapons, the amount of black heaven increased so much that monsters could be easily killed with simple thorns or blades.

Above all, the ultimate difference between the situation on the other side of the wall and Frontier was that the monsters were avoiding him.

I don’t know if it was because they were stimulated by instinctive fear, or because they thought it would be better to attack the other side, but the monsters kept their distance from Frondier. In particular, the black monsters even ran away.

Sigh! Push!

Of course, since the first thing that Frondier caught his eye on was the black monster, most of its escape attempts were not successful and became food for Frondier and disappeared.

Monsters flying in the air are absorbed through the air, and monsters outside are annihilated using the absorbed black cloth. Since mana is being charged through the black monster, this chain can theoretically rotate infinitely.

‘…Ugh, it’s getting worse.’

However, theory is sometimes different from reality.

Frondier was having a hard time holding back the nausea rising from within his body.

A sense of accepting something from another world that you will probably never feel again in your life. Moreover, since this feeling is felt after a mental battle to seize control of mana with a black monster, the consumption of mental energy is enormous.

Now Frondier was having a hard time not because of his physical strength or mana, but because of his mentality. At least, it was the first time since I came to this world.

‘I feel like I’m piling up sins.’

I don’t know if such a feeling exists, but Frontier is now aware that he has touched a taboo.

I don’t know what kind of butterfly effect this will be and what kind of typhoon it will bring to him later, but there is nothing we can do to protect the barrier right now.

“Whew, you have to hold on.”

Frondier raised his head with a pale complexion and looked away.

Even though we have fought this far, there is still no end in sight to the monsters.

And not just that. Frondier, who was checking the appearance of monsters approaching from afar, calmed his eyes.

“…Cyclops.”

A giant seen from far away. After seeing the one-eyed figure, Frondier bit down on its molars.

The monsters outside become stronger the further out they go. Each and every monster that emerges from the deep darkness and abyss beyond human sight brings despair to humans.

Even though the monsters right in front of the barrier are outside, most of them are the same species as the monsters inside. Although they become more ferocious and strong because they are outside, goblins and orcs can also be found inside.

However, if you go further outside, guys that only exist outside will pop out.

The one-eyed giant called Cyclops or Cyclops is one of them. They are like a signal that tells you what the real monsters are outside.

Frondier looked around and checked the condition of the soldiers.

‘I haven’t found the others yet.’

Most of the soldiers were unable to see far away as they were busy fighting the battle in front of them. The same goes for the knights who gave instructions. Now, the only ones who have noticed the appearance of Cyclops are Frontier and probably Sylvain. Ampere is dealing with the most monsters, so it may not seem like a problem with his vision, but his excellent sense of spirit may have been able to read it.

‘It’s better not to know right now. There will be confusion and you won’t be able to kill the monster in front of you.’

But that time is only a brief reprieve.

If that giant approaches the wall, it will be a more serious problem than if several ogres of similar size attack. Ogres are monsters that appear in folktales, but Cyclops is a creature that appears in mythology. From there, the difference in rank arises.

“That bastard…!”

As Frondier expected, Sylvain, who was observing the situation, soon saw Cyclops and frowned.

In order to catch that one thing, the entire Roach Knights must form a cavalry formation and attack it all at once. Only then can you defeat Cyclops with minimal damage.

Of course, it would be impossible in such a chaotic battlefield. In the first place, it would be impossible to lead the horse out now.

‘are you okay. The head of the family is now standing in front of the wall. The moment it approached the gate, it struck with a single blow,’

Sylvain thought.

Kugugu

Cyclops suddenly walked off somewhere without coming. What was visible in front of it was a huge rock. As soon as he confirmed this, Sylvain’s face became cold.

Cyclops lifted a rock as big as his head. Then, he lifted it onto his shoulders and the muscles in his arms bulged. The ground caved in as a huge foot took a step forward. Right after.

Wow!!

A rock so huge that it was hard to even believe it was real flew by at an unbelievable speed, suppressing the wind.

‘…ah.’

Sylvaine looked at the scene blankly, thinking it was a dream. If that rock touches the wall, it will absolutely shatter. At that moment, this fight is not a fight but just a one-sided massacre.

However, what Sylvain had right now was a sword in his hand.

This is not enough— weaving in

the air, simultaneous replication,

imperial armory,

5 spears of the same type,

and at that moment, something flew out of the air towards the rock. Spears with terrifying blades were fired senselessly towards the rock. The rock broke apart and pieces flew over the front of the wall.

“Aaaah!”

“Kaaaaak!”

A scream erupted from above the barrier. Although the wall did not collapse, the wall was damaged and people died despite the remains of the rocks.

‘Is this just Frontier again?’

However, if we couldn’t even destroy it, this barrier would be over at that moment. Sylvaine looked at Frontier.

At that time, Frondier was also looking at Sylvaine.

“Captain!!”

Frontier called him.

“I’ll take care of the rock! “Please give me fragments instead!”

“…!”

Only then did Sylvain come to his senses and bit his lip. Naturally, the sword in my hand gained strength and I quickly stepped forward to the barrier.

Sylvain clearly has no means of breaking the rock. If you were targeting him directly, you could cut down the rocks, but there was no way to cut down the rocks targeting the barrier.

Unless there is a magical skill like Ampere, such as a long-distance attack with a sword, it is a season for those who have trained their Aurors to the limit and require talent.

But dealing with the shattered pieces. Even Sylvain can do that. But what did you do just now? As he saw the rock coming before his eyes, he thought it was all over and let go. Even though Frondier broke the rock, the fragments damaged the wall and killed the soldier.

Sylvain was in a position to hang his head even though he had just been scolded by Frondier.

“Whew…”

Sylvain raised his Auror. You don’t know exactly where the Cyclops will aim until the moment you throw it. Therefore, no matter where you fly, you must lighten your body.

The Cyclops picked up another rock. This time it was bigger than before. Perhaps he felt it was insufficient after seeing Frondier break the rock?

The giant’s footsteps take a step again

!

This time, a bigger one flew through the wind at an even more frightening speed.

Kwaaaaang!

The rock was once again broken by the spears rushing through the air, and the fragments shattered into pieces. This time Sylvain moved.

“Hmph!”

As Sylvain’s sword swung, the rock pieces lost their strength and fell. He spread out his aura to fill in the sword’s insufficient length or expand its area, quelling the force of the fragments.

Even though they could not completely separate and eject the Aura, Sylvain was sufficiently equipped with this level of Aura proficiency.

And his true value was not in being an auror, but in the swordsmanship itself.

“Wow….”

The soldiers were surprised to see the rock being smashed by a spear in the air, but they were also amazed at how the pieces scattered in all directions lost their strength and fell as soon as Sylvain’s blade touched them.

The trick of reading the rotation and speed of a stone at once and calming its momentum. It wasn’t just about becoming a strong Auror.

The Cyclops’ rock flew several times after that. All the rocks visible around were being lifted and thrown away.

However, each time, the combination of Frontier and Sylvaine was blocking the rocks without causing much damage.

‘Okay, if this is the case, we can stop it!’

“Frondier! Well done….”

When Sylvain looked at Frondier and tried to praise his performance.

“…!”

Frondier had his hands on his knees and his back was shaking.

“…Frondier?”

Although Frontier’s face was not visible to others as he lowered his head.

Frondier felt as if he was about to drown in the river.

‘Mana…’

Up until now, I had used the mana of the black monster to cover it. But it wasn’t leisurely. Since all that mana was being used to kill monsters, it was only possible to continue the battle.

There was already mana exhaustion once before absorbing the black monster. After that, I did a little more straining.

And after forcing myself to hold on without recovering or fainting, I came back again.

Second mana drain.

“Ugh huh huh… huh…!”

I couldn’t breathe well. My muscles were so tight that I couldn’t breathe or breathe. Muscle and internal spasms, hyperventilation, and rapid blood circulation. It was a roar that could not be controlled for anything.

All of these were reflexes to survive, but the body’s runaway, unable to keep the order, was actually driving Frontier to death.

Frontier, frontier! Sylvaine’s voice was far away. I had no time to answer, no time to listen or think in the first place.

The winter on the wall is bitterly cold, but my body is so hot it feels like it’s burning. No, this must be burning somewhere. Meanwhile, Frontier had only one thought.

Just somehow before the next rock comes—

“…Frondier.”

Moment.

The cold of the barrier disappeared. The burning sensation inside my body cooled.

I was struggling to survive without being able to hear anything.

A clear voice sounded to Frondier, and only then did he raise his head.

in front of him.

“I told you so.”

With bloodshot eyes, a face covered in sweat, and breathing as rough as a frontier.

“I will protect you with my life.”

She believed that it would come only after the sun sets.

“Selena has arrived.”

He was smiling with a face that looked like he was about to cry as he wrapped the cloth he was holding tightly in his hand around Frondier’s neck.
