The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 233
Chapter 74 Demon (6)
The weapon I am replicating cannot yet handle the entire number of demons.
However, a single weapon does not necessarily kill only one animal.
Hiss!
Burbubbuk—
My weapons spread out like crazy, each weapon piercing the devil’s head, piercing the next one’s heart, and piercing the next one from top to bottom.
A spear is effective when clearing out these large numbers of enemies. Once it penetrates, it stabs the next guys until its momentum dies.
“Aaaah!”
“Aaaahhh!”
Those who were attacked first fell down, and those who could not see the weapons because their vision was blocked by other demons had their necks blown off and their heads pierced.
“What’s going on!”
“This guy uses a strange technique!”
“Take up your weapons and defend yourself!”
“The attack itself is nothing special! Use Aura! “I can block it well!”
It was not until long after the number of dead people reached double digits that the demons came to their senses and shouted.
‘It’s nothing special.’
It’s not wrong. I just make weapons and shoot them. Attack power depends on the performance of the weapon itself. Even though the entire palace armory was taken out, only about half of the demons could be easily defeated.
The remaining half are doing some damage, but they can’t be killed right away.
…Well, actually, even if that’s the case, it’s not a problem.
All you have to do is use a weapon that is half as easy to kill.
‘Anyway, if I hold on just a little longer, the Zodiacs will come.’
With my sixth sense, I already feel that the Zodiacs are dealing with the demons from a different direction.
Did you say it was Mizonas, the demon who fought Ajie? His idea was probably to use these demons to take down me and Metamorph, but the moment Metamorph was trapped in my workshop, his plan was already shattered.
‘In the meantime, let’s do a test.’
I manipulated the arm strap and released the black cloth.
The black sky spread like black fog and spread around me. After obtaining Helheim’s mana, I continued to train myself to handle the black cloth thinly and thinly, and thanks to this, the black cloth has now become so small that each droplet is barely visible to the naked eye.
These fine black clouds surround me and look like fog.
“He’s doing something strange again!”
The demons must have become completely wary of me, watching my movements while being hit by weapons flying in all directions.
Since there were so many, there were some that were prepared to die and flew straight towards me.
It’s just right.
Shhh!
First, I fired my mid-air weapons at the demons flying straight at me. They must have been prepared, so they released their aura more clearly and knocked out most of the weapons. Of course, there were also those who were unable to defend themselves and fell after being hit.
‘After all, all demons can use Aurors.’
Whether they defend themselves or not, all demons here use auras. Humans very naturally used things that took years of training to acquire. It’s probably innate.
‘Helheim’s mana can penetrate aurors more easily than regular mana.’
This is what I learned while dealing with Eden and his men.
Perhaps because Helheim’s mana itself was of a different kind, it was able to penetrate the opponent’s aura more easily. Of course, it wasn’t something that could be completely ignored.
Then in this case.
What if the enemy was also a monster from another world?
Weaving (織造) Heukcheon (黑川)
Imperial Palace Armory
Grade – Unique
Among those made with aerial weaving, a spear that was less effective against demons was copied to Heukcheon. I set the number to be exactly the same as the ones flying towards me. Experiments are basically about creating fewer variables under control.
“Now take it.”
I shot after giving a signal.
To their eyes, they will appear to be almost similar weapons.
Shhh!
As expected, they were planning to block it again. There are a few things where kids with weapons stretch out their arms and legs to reduce the area in order to avoid them. Some people are thinking of emitting more aura and using their bodies to survive.
All of that.
Burbubbubbuk!!
Heukcheon crushed everything.
“Kaaaaaaak!”
“Kwaeook!”
The demons’ screams were truly human-like.
It was more similar to humans than I thought, including the fact that it spoke human language and its vital points were in the same positions as humans.
‘hmm. It can easily penetrate the demons’ aura. Just because it’s another world doesn’t mean it’s all the same.’
There’s no way these demons came from Helheim. This is mana from a completely different world.
Even if it’s the same world, Black Heaven somehow seems to have the effect of easily piercing the opponent’s aura.
‘Once I found out that black cloth is more effective, next time…’
I looked around. I checked the situation while checking the mana I had.
In fact, once you have confirmed the effect of Black Heaven, it is possible to kill these demons more easily. In fact, it would be possible to slaughter most of these demons without using the Black Heaven if you put in a bit of effort.
But I didn’t do that.
Because that would be a waste.
‘This time, let’s find out the differences between weapons of the same unique grade.’
I still have a lot more to test against these.
* * *
The Zodiacs all scrambled out except for the three remaining in Bartello’s bedroom.
Even at a glance, the number of demons pouring out of the imperial palace was unusual. Above all, right after they appeared, the magic circle installed in Frontier’s bedroom suddenly expanded.
The Zodiacs had a hunch. Demons are targeting Frontier!
“no! Frontier! “I’ll save you, just hold on for a little while!”
Lili was the one who ran out first. Lili acted as if she had known Frondier for a long time. The expressions on the faces of the people around them became subtle, but they all still acted the same way.
As Frontier said, targeting the emperor seemed to be a simple fake. If the three Zodiacs are here, there is no need to worry. Above all, among the three, there is Ludovic.
“…There are so many.”
The Zodiacs frowned as soon as they left the imperial palace. At first, I wondered if there was a flock of bats wandering around. When I looked closely, I saw demons far away. Black wings filled the sky and flew around making loud noises.
“If things continue like this, you will be attacked if you try to approach Frontier.”
Monty said with a stern expression. He had as strong a desire to protect Frontier as Lili.
However, Montina Lili could not think of a way to reach Frondier right away. Dealing with this many demons is not difficult, but it is not something that can be completed in a short time.
at that time.
“Do you want to go to Frontier Hanti?”
I hear a dialect whose origin I don’t know.
Pajik! Let’s go!
An eerie lightning flashed blue light and ran through the sky. The lightning flashed through the clustered bats and extended to all nearby bats, forming a green streak. Lightning illuminated the sky for a long time in an endless chain reaction.
“Ridwi!”
Lili immediately recognized the identity of the magic and shouted.
“thank you! After all, you don’t have the title of Grand Wizard!”
“What do you mean I’m not an archmage?”
“Ridwi is an archmage, so why not!”
“…If you say something like that to another wizard, you could get in really big trouble.’
Archmage is not such a title.
Like the Zodiac, it is not a title that can be achieved by ranking within a certain rank, like the 12 strongest people on the continent.
Magic is armed with theory and order, and theories develop and change over time and move toward a new path.
Archmage is a title that can only be earned by those who have achieved some kind of reform or added new concepts to the concept of magic.
Of course, it’s not that Lili doesn’t know that. She said with a bright smile.
“It will be soon. Archmage.”
“…Anyway, if you want to go to Frontier, move quickly. “I’ll take care of this.”
“huh! “I’ll go quickly and rescue Frontier!”
As Lili said that, a red aura filled her entire body. Monty’s aura next to him was also in full effect. Until a while ago, if I headed towards Frondier like this, I would have been surrounded by demons and would have spent more time, but now, due to Ridwi’s magic, a large gap in the direction toward Frondier was opened.
“Wait a minute.”
Then Ridwi spoke.
“Are you trying to save Frontier?”
“huh. Of course! He’s dangerous if we don’t save him as soon as possible! “It seems like all the demons here are targeting Frontier.”
Ridwi scratched his head at those words.
“…draw. “Just figure it out.”
“…? “Well, I’ll go anyway!”
That’s how Riri and Monty started.
Daisy, who was looking at it, said.
“I can’t do it. As expected, I have to go too…”
“Nin, no.”
“what! “It seems like you look down on me because you don’t know my strength yet, but I” “
How can you look down on Zodiac just because you don’t know my strength? “It’s not like that.”
“Then what is it?”
Ridwi spoke with cold eyes to Daisy, who tilted her head.
“It’s called overinvestment.”
“…and…investment?”
“That’s what overinvestment is. It means investing too much. Investment means using certain goods first to get what you want…”
“I know!”
“It’s good to know. The remaining Zodiacs just need to kill the demons here. Then, we will be able to handle this sudden situation without any problems.”
Daisy tilted a little at Ridwi’s words, but decided that what he said also made sense.
There are literally countless demons visible in the sky right now. It must be urgent to deal with them right away. Since the two Zodiacs headed toward Frontier, it’ll probably be okay.
However, if Frondier has already been captured by demons, the demons can take Frondier hostage. In that case, it might be a bit difficult for the two Zodiacs. Wouldn’t it be okay to have at least one more person to steal the view?
There was such a vague feeling of uneasiness, but Daisy saw Ridwi’s expression so distraught that she decided to do as he said for now.
“Then, let’s take charge of each area and kill the demons! “I’m heading northwest!”
Daisy said and ran away.
* * *
——Draw. Do whatever you want.
Riri and Monty wonder why Lidwi said that and why he made that expression while saying that.
It didn’t take long to understand.
“…What is that?”
Lily said blankly.
I headed straight to where I thought Frontier was.
I felt the mana of Frontier and arrived exactly there.
But exactly where the frontier should be located.
“Hmm. Not all blades are effective. A few blunt weapons can also be useful. Even if you don’t aim for a vital spot, it has lethal power, and even if you don’t die, enemies around you will be swept away.”
There was some kind of devil.
A devil wearing black fog instead of wings was holding the devil’s neck with his right hand, lifting it up and looking at it quietly.
“Other than having bat wings, he’s almost identical to a human from head to toe. The blood is also red. “I feel something unpleasant.”
“Ugh…! “Stop talking nonsense and kill me!”
“wait. “I’m still thinking about it.”
puck! Pow!
The demon covered in fog struck several more times as the demon held around its neck started talking. What I was holding in my hand looked like a hammer, but the body was quite thick compared to the short handle.
“Would it hurt less if I hit the weapon of God gently?”
“….”
There was no answer this time. The devil seemed completely unconscious. After confirming that, the Demon of Black Fog seemed to lose interest and threw it somewhere. Like throwing trash on the street.
“…Frondier?”
Lily said in a somewhat nervous tone. Hearing that, the devil turned his head.
It wasn’t the devil. It was Frontier.
It flew in the direction where Frondier was and called Frondier’s name toward something in the location where Frondier should be. Then I looked back and saw something that looked exactly like Frontier. Of course it was Frontier.
According to this natural development, the man in front of me had to be Frondier, and Frondier was right. For some reason, I couldn’t understand it right away.
Boom boom!
While I was watching Frondier blankly, something else fell from the sky. When I turned my gaze, there was a devil. Those with their heads or torsos pierced, and those with separated bodies above and below, fell individually and rolled around like stuffed dolls.
“….”
“….”
Lili and Monty looked up at the sky blankly. The demons were toyed with by unidentified weapons, suffered injuries, and fell dead.
Even if you hit them, they tried to respond to the weapons that came back, but they couldn’t read the blind spot and had their backs pierced, or those that lost limbs because they were simply pushed by numbers screamed and fell again.
“You’re here.”
Frondier said with a smile as the devil’s corpse fell.
“I almost got hit. Thanks to you, I survived.”
