Rune stones.
If you pick up a couple of items while clearing the campaign, they are valuable enough to count as a lot. It can be seen occasionally in Expedition, which is high-level content after the campaign, in other words, dimension travel.
To put it simply, a runestone is a superior version of a magic scroll, and it is a disposable consumable with powerful spells or powers that are not included in the scroll.
Aside from the fact that the power was powerful, the effect was equally useful. So, I also used it sparingly.
For example,
low-level users enter the server they are playing on and overturn the terrain with the runestone ‘Great Earthquake’.
Breaking the runestone ‘Cadmos’ Wisdom’ in front of the undead unit that the Necromancer user painstakingly created to cause the summoned creatures to destroy each other.
If you drop unique equipment while hunting for a party, convert all items that fell on the server into a handful of gold coins with the rune stone ‘Goja’s Eye’ before your teammates pick them up.
I personally liked it very much because it was an essential consumable for a fun game.
The runestone ‘Flame of Hell’ was also used in a similar way to the one listed above, and when I got lucky, I was more happy than when I got some unique equipment.
That’s how it was when I was playing the game.
“Uh-uh!”
As the runestone ‘Flame Gate of Hell’ was shattered in the hands of the berserker, a shrill voice burst out without my knowledge.
“This crazy idiot!”
No matter what I said, the zealot only giggled as he brushed away the debris. Judging by the shaking of his shoulders, he seemed to be laughing quite excitedly, but his voice was not heard.
Because the gates of hell were open.
As the terrible magic power flowed from the rune stone permeated the floor, the ground cracked with a sharp noise like an iron plate being torn apart
.
“All alert! Prepare for battle-!”
Baron Inno Men, wearing a deer antlers helmet, shouted at his throat. Then he jumped at the berserker and wielded a longsword.
“Take your order!”
The sword light that received the torch flashed red. True to his reputation as the king’s horseman, it was a swift and precise thrust that ordinary people could not even react to.
“oh.”
The berserker rotated in place, showing his fangs and smiling.
Chewy.
Baron Innomen’s sword, like a red arrow, passed her shoulder. The cloak fell into pieces, revealing the silver-gray plate armor full of scratches.
“Kin zarran.”
The berserker muttered something and squeezed the longsword outstretched wrist with his left hand. The agile counterattack was embarrassing, but Baron Innomen shook his head without hesitation.
“Ouch!”
bang!
It was an intense head-butt with a deer antlers attached to a full helm.
“……Huh” As blood flowed through his hair, the berserker licked his lips with his bright red tongue.
“good.”
At the same time, the scar-engraved forehead and full helm burst into shadows. This time it was a berserker’s headbutt.
“Cheuk”
Baron Innomen tried to step back, but the berserker laughed and squeezed the baron’s wrist. A large hand crumpled the plate armor in an instant. Blood seeped through the torn sheet metal, and a desperate scream ensued.
“Quaaaaaaaaagh!” Before the screams were over, another head-butt hit Fullhelm. The hard metal that had gone through the heat treatment was dented in an instant.
“O -QT O —– ———–
Baron Innomen drew a dagger from his waist and aimed at the berserker’s armpit even while he was unconscious. It was a fairly sharp counterattack, but the berserker knocked the baron down easily by tapping his ankle as if sweeping the floor.
“Baron!”
“Save the lord!”
The soldiers, stunned by the sight of the baron’s disillusionment, rushed at the berserker. Of course, it was the knights of Baron Innomen who jumped at the forefront.
“A dangerous savage!”
“Besieged!”
Fortunately, there were no idiots among the baron’s knights who talked about chivalry or honor and didn’t mind a pincer attack. They displayed a cowardly but sure offensive befitting a powerful opponent who knocked down the rider of a king with his bare hands.
The first and second knights tore up the scroll of boouk/magic. Six or seven pieces of white sticks spilled out of the scroll that the lead knight had torn. The second knight spreads sticky pulses of mana.
“Gua’ekel”
frowned, and the berserker quickly drew two longswords from his back. The longsword held in the right hand had a black blade and the other side was white. A pair of swords that give off an unusual sense of anticipation just by looking at them.
It was ‘Black Ice’ and ‘Morning Star’.
As the two unique longswords flashed black and white, all the white stick ‘magic arrows’ that flew towards the berserker’s face were all shattered.
However, no matter how sharp the sword was, it was impossible to shake off the smoke that was approaching.
The berserk-colored magic that extended from the scroll of the second knight embraced the berserker in an instant. It was a ‘slow down’ order.
“Ah fidhos-”
She was spitting and swearing. Five or six knights of Baron Innomen and the soldiers following at once rushed at her. The zealot growled ferociously and swung his sword against the knights despite the force of the spell weighing down his shoulders.
If I got involved in that battle, I thought I could give the berserk a shot of a sword, but I didn’t.
The flame’s Hell Gate, which was expanding its territory with a sharp metal sound from the floor, or the dimensional gate leading to the flame system, grew to a diameter of 7 to 8 meters and began to emit heat.
Hurr.
The midwinter sunset that colored the world had long since receded, but the black night sky was brightening again. It was because the dimensional door that opened its mouth poured red light.
Of course, no one recalled a hopeful morning or a heartbreaking evening when they saw the light. When I smelled the acrid smell of sulfur and the terrible smell of metal, all I could think of was hell, and the association was real.
“…to the castle. Let’s go to the castle!”
I looked back at the mercenaries and shouted.
“Take Mira Ellen! Cole Confair! Pick up the wounded!”
“yep!”
“Stidman, you lead the way!” While the mercenaries quickly prepared to move, Baron Shahenna, who was taken aback by the sudden situation, soon recovered his spirit and began to give orders to his subordinates.
“Sir Eadrige, help Baron Innomen’s knights catch the barbarians! new bet! Bring the priests!”
“Yes, Baron!”
Then she took off the reins and glanced back at me. The cold eyes shined brightly in the exquisite light shining through the narrow gap between the face armor.
“It’s like Arnesso’s seagull.” Arnesso’s Seagull? What are you talking about?
“You’re not thinking of leaving it like this, are you?”
Saying that, Baron Shaenna raised his sword.
Chae Chaeng!
Then, my subordinate mercenaries, who were about to enter the alleyway, were blocked by the spear blades of the soldiers blocking the street corner.
“What is this-”
“Don’t think about running away, help deal with the situation here!”
“……yes?”
“This is an order from the head of security in Modos and a warning from the king’s representative, so if you dare to go against it, I will consider it treason!”
The moment I thought about just killing this. The dimensional door of the salt system, which had opened its mouth wide, began to spit out blazing fireballs as the red light was not enough.
“It’s a monster-”
“Attack! Attack!”
According to a soldier’s suppressed moans, what the portal spewed out was not fireballs, but monsters!
The ‘Brimstone Wolf’ with flames.
A ‘fire spirit’ that burns hot in the shape of a mixture of a lizard and a bird.
A ‘hellhound’ that looks more like a hyena than a dog, is twice the size of a bull, and has red skin.
A ‘flame demon’ with three horns, a forked tongue like a snake, and a torn mouth, and wields a huge greatsword with flames all over his body
… year poured out Even the elite soldiers led by the King’s Horseman flinched back at the terrifying and mysterious sight.
It was then.
“Cover and spread!”
A heavy voice rang out as if it had been amplified through a power amplifier.
I followed the voice and turned my head to see an elderly man on the other side of the street on the watchtower for security, chanting an incantation with a thick book open.
“Shadow with a secret!” A loud noise, like hundreds of folded linens rubbing against each other. At the wizard’s fingertips, the shadow split into dozens of pieces, each of which grew in size.
The shadows that roamed the air like a fluttering cloak by themselves were soon released like mountain birds by the magician’s touch and rushed toward the dimensional door all at once.
“S6n bat gerreck suwat!”
A flame demon shouted in a grotesque voice, and dozens of brimstone fire wolves and several fire spirits poured flames towards the ‘shadow army’.
Fire-!
The flames emitted by the monsters coalesced in the middle and spread out like the breath of a dragon. Right before the shadow army engulfed in flames scattered the form, fresh white smoke blew in the wind from somewhere.
no it wasn’t smoke.
It was dozens of frost butterflies made of ice and the ‘cold cloud’ they embraced.
Somewhere, another wizard was hiding and casting a spell.
“Oh…
the cold cloud shattered as it overpowered the flames spewed by the monsters. A scarlet rainbow rose from the infernal light emitted by the portal as the water mist blew away.
After that, a swarm of frost butterflies and an army of shadows fell like moths toward the demons of the salt realm. It was like scattering white, blue, and black confetti over a campfire.
However, instead of disappearing leaving only sparks and ash, the colored papers persistently attacked the monsters. It extinguished the raging flames, biting the neck, and gnawing at the limbs.
“Now shoot!”
At the shout of a knight, arrows rained down from among the soldiers. Dozens of monsters fell back down the dimension door in the rain of arrows shot from the longbow and crossbow.
“Waah-/”
“The light is with us!”
As the terrifying monsters were knocked down by spells and shots, the soldiers who recovered their morale shouted loudly.
By the time the shower of arrows continued several more times. There was a crackling sound from behind the soldiers, and four or five heavy cavalry soldiers appeared dragging the priests.
“Bless the soldiers now!”
The priests, who seemed to have been brought after spending a peaceful evening at Baron Shahenna’s sharp shouts, gathered with bewildered faces.
Whoops!
With the old priest at the center, five priests drew a circle and memorized prayers. Soon, a flashing white light exploded, and the light spread to the weapons of nearby soldiers and knights.
“Oh oh!”
“The light is truly with us!”
When the ‘fortification of weapons’ was completed, the knight who was in command of the shooting shouted while brandishing a white glowing mace.
“Time to throw them back into the mouth of hell!”
“Aww-!”
The soldiers foamed at the mouth and shouted slogans like pseudo-fanatics.
“Good fortune to me, glory to Your Majesty!”
“All to the Lord-!”
Baron Shaenna issued an order in front of an army that seemed ready to explode at any moment.
“All charge!”
Even before the ‘E:’ of the charge could be spit out, the soldiers rushed towards the monsters all at once. All of them were heavily armed with iron plated chain armor and heavy helmets, but their running was as fast and powerful as that of a runner.
“Khh.”
A fiery demon flicked its forked tongue as it tossed the corpse of the brimstone wolf it was holding as a shield. Then, fixing his greatsword, he charged at the soldiers rushing forward.
“Bhlam k6de bhlam zganna~!”
With a bizarre shout, the greatsword swung at once cut through the torso of the soldier who was charging at the forefront. The comrades who ran in front scattered left and right, spewing black smoke instead of blood fountains, but not a single soldier slowed down the charge.
“Kill!”
The soldiers who attacked in succession drove their spears into the demon of flame. The spear blade imbued with divine power through the consecration of the priests easily split the leather forged with hellfire.
“Quack-”
The demon, whose face was distorted in pain, turned himself into flames and attacked the soldiers.
“Uhhhhhhh!”
“This fucked baby-!”
The soldiers who had driven their spears into the demon let out a terrifying scream as the intense flames covered their whole body.
Fire.
Soon after, the demon of flame, which had a body again, swung a greatsword to finish off the soldiers, and the soldiers engulfed in flames threw down their shields and threw themselves at the demon.
“Oh Lord everything!”
“Come here!”
The soldiers continued to shout slogans even as heated helmets pressed down on their heads, flaming gloves melted fingerprints, and the undercoat and skin under their chain mail were sticking to each other.
The flame demon floundered like a wild boar surrounded by mad dogs, then swallowed the knife deep in its throat. The flame demon vomited out flames in a fit of fuss. A nameless soldier sliced through the demon’s body with a blade imbued with divine radiance, even as his hands and arms melted.
“Huh-!”
While the fiery demon let out a soundless scream, a knight ran up and cut off the demon’s head with a single blow.
When the flame demon died, half of the soldiers engulfed in flames collapsed on the spot, and the rest rushed at the other monsters screaming.
Similar scenes unfolded on all sides.
…there are no crazy people.
I was silent for a while and kept my mouth shut.
