The Cook of a Perished World - Chapter 215

Episode 215: Subjugation War (1)

The distance from Chuncheon, our base, to Pyeongchang was quite long.

Trying to subdue an enemy from this distance is quite difficult in itself.

so that.

So that we can defeat all enemies in this battle.

Our unit had to use every possible option.

“We sing military songs during the march!”

One of them is….

“Gunga is a cool man!”

“wonderful! man!”

It’s a little embarrassing, but whatever.

It was a military song sung in unison.

-Imitating our tribe’s culture… like this.

This trait originally belonged to the [Green Mane Tribe].

It is activated when all members sing energetically. In

a kind of battle between [peers]

many versus many.

The meaning of this type of wide-area buff is beyond imagination.

‘Because of this, I had to teach military songs to untrained soldiers…’

When I was a private.

I remembered a little bit about teaching the battalion to juniors who had just moved in.

“Ugh. “Do I really have to do this?”

This military song is quite embarrassing for the troops who have not completed the military service.

Voices of dissatisfaction also leaked out little by little.

Anyway, whatever.

One thing is probably important.

“The effect is that great, so of course I have to do it!”

[Guild – All of the abilities of the Steel Legion…]

[Guild – The Steel Legion’s characteristics…]

Even though it’s just an act of singing while running.

The effect is.

It was very certain.

That’s not all.

[Commander’s shout – the charge order rings out.]

“All troops forward!”

‘Mid-level commander.’

With each captured command from Lieutenant Kim.

A powerful buff is applied to the bodies of the unit members.

[Cry of madness]

“Victory or death!!!”

Due to Corporal Jeon Gwang-il’s maniacal growl.

The soldiers’ eyes display a subtle madness aimed at destroying their enemies.

and.

[Course Meal – Anti-Demon Light]

When dealing with evil enemies.

A hearty meal is essential.

[Group characteristic – ‘Energy of the Legion’ is applied.]

[Synergy is granted to each buff effect.]

Now, all those buffs have been strengthened and applied one more time.

All unit members double their normal capacity.

No, I gained almost three times the strength.

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrpp…!”

Let the formidable buff turn your body upside down.

Some of the soldiers singing military songs begin to foam at the mouth.

It’s not like it’s really painful.

A symptom I’ve experienced quite a bit now.

“Sergeant Shi Shin.”

“Quickly… let us fight.”

“Hold on, you guys.”

I couldn’t control the power overflowing inside my body.

It means that you want to resolve it somehow.

“All soldiers are ready to enter!”

“We’ve finished eating and everyone is anxious to fight.”

Let’s look back at the soldiers’ report.

Dozens of tanks and combat vehicles.

And behind the tanks.

Legion soldiers dressed in long field jackets suitable for winter were seen lined up.

Without any disruption.

Soldiers singing military songs with full military spirit.

Looking at those soldiers.

I spoke lightly while roughly putting a piece of combat ration in my mouth.

“Let’s go in.”

“yes!”

A winter world covered in snow.

A magnificent war song rings out there.

Moving barriers.

The tank’s endless track moves forward across the snow field.

“Suppress all enemies!”

“Loyal, loyal, loyal!!!”

Soldiers who have transcended humanity.

They move towards the enemy camp faster than a tank.

“For the Legion’s victory!!!”

“KIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!”

of the legion.

For victory.

* * *

“This leader!”

A sudden enemy attack.

The [Demon Contractors] were puzzled.

their leader.

I ran to where Wonjun was.

“What is going on?”

“…It’s an enemy attack.”

“It’s an enemy raid. “How do you know our location…?”

Due to their nature, contractors do not easily leave traces.

They are the ones who literally disappear ‘without a trace’ at the point where they sacrifice their souls to complete the contract.

There were many people who were afraid of that moment.

This was considered a strength in that there was no chance of being discovered by the enemy.

‘This is where the master’s grace resides. Even with the nature of the search series, it would be difficult to find the exact location…’

Nevertheless.

The enemy has accurately located their location.

[Planetarium] found out the approximate location.

The [Spirit Master] will find out the exact location.

This is incomprehensible to those who do not know the Corps’ information collection system.

“…You’re not a soldier for nothing.”

just.

Surviving military units.

“I think that’s highly likely.”

“It looks like they also operate tanks.”

With the technical skills that soldiers had in the past.

I could only guess that they had come up with some method.

“That tank.”

“I didn’t say there was a high probability that only one or two small units survived!”

Chariots rushing in.

Not only that, but in the distance, a towed artillery gun could be seen emitting fire.

Quite a long time has passed since the destruction.

Even the monsters were not helplessly defeated by the military’s fire.

Babababababababang….

Nevertheless.

That overwhelming firepower was sufficiently burdensome.

“Isn’t that the firepower of one or two small units?”

“…surely.”

That wasn’t enough to wipe out an ordinary tank battalion or an artillery battalion.

It looks like several military units are carrying out joint operations.

This was not something that could be done simply because there were a lot of war weapons.

Weapons for war require a significant amount of resources and their efficiency is abysmal.

In order to operate a tank of that size.

A huge amount of oil and resources will be needed.

‘Are you saying that many military units have already been recaptured? Or that there were many military units that survived from the beginning?’

The military units in the area where they lived were wiped out without a single exception.

Luckily, several military units survived in the area where their corps was located.

It was a number that made me think about that possibility.

But…

they didn’t know.

Until recently.

The amount of war weapons the Legion possessed was less than half of that.

They liberate the monsters in the military base.

By successfully disposing of those monsters without causing any damage.

Weapons and resources from empty military bases.

As far as the fact that they may have entered the arms of the Legion.

From the beginning, they thought that the operation to ‘liberate the monsters in the military base’ would have failed.

There was no way to know.

“What the hell is this?”

“On that tank. Even the tow gun… what will happen to us!”

Let’s get things like this.

The contractors could not help but be taken aback by the sudden attack.

but.

“Well, it’s painful to have your location discovered, but… you don’t have to worry too much.”

Against people who are so embarrassed.

Executive-level officials spoke calmly.

“Isn’t it true that there are guardians given by the master in preparation for times like this?”

“Ahhh.”

“Now that I think about it, it was like that.”

devil.

The entity decided to invest some money to protect its contractors.

Without taking any souls in return.

Those are the powerful monsters sent down to earth.

‘There are far more minions than they appear on the outside.’

This area they are currently occupying.

It was like a demonic world lurking with a huge number of minions.

“Look over there. “The minions are participating right now.”

“Oh oh…!”

As the saying goes.

Monsters clad in dark shadows were seen moving to intercept the enemies.

When I first saw it, it was beyond creepy.

Looking at it like this, it is extremely reassuring.

In particular, the one at the forefront among them

was… a huge monster that was almost the size of a building.

[Bargast]

It’s a fact they don’t know.

onetime.

A monster that even caused trouble for the commander of the legion.

“Among the servants sent by the master, he is one of the most hard-working monsters.”

“I see.”

“Now that he’s gone, even if it’s the firepower of a tank, it doesn’t mean much…”

The oil-like skin could have looked disgusting.

Its enormous size and power.

In terms of protection, he was an infinitely trustworthy being.

But….

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

-Kruk…!

“!?”

Let the advancing tank spit fire.

The huge body shakes greatly.

OK.

People’s eyes turned to the executive who had just spoken.

“I’m sure the firepower of the tank just now will be meaningless.”

“…This can’t be happening.”

Unlike your average contractor.

With their high status, they also have information about their minions.

[Intermediate Demon Contractor Lv.22]

[Characteristic – Intermediate Demon Knowledge]

According to what the trait tells us.

That servant’s tenacity had to be able to withstand tank fire.

in other words.

‘Are you saying it’s not an ordinary tank?’

It would have been nice if it ended there.

Unfortunately, the attack did not end there.

“Everyone get off!”

A tank that fired a barrage of fire.

The soldiers on the tank get off the vehicle as the battle begins.

Then the soldiers took out their weapons.

Fortunately, the soldiers with guns were okay.

the problem is.

‘cane?’

Soldiers holding wooden canes that did not match their uniforms at all.

They shouted in voices full of discipline.

“Throw flaming bullets!”

Although I did say it was a flame bomb.

What they threw was not a typical military fire bomb.

[Fireball]

Quaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

-Gooooooo…!

Let the legion’s wizards launch powerful range attacks.

Vargast, a large monster, writhed in pain.

The man who saw that couldn’t help but be shocked.

As they were dealing with the giant monster, it didn’t at all feel like I was dealing with a monster I had never seen before.

Rather, yes.

As if….

‘As if I knew Vargast’s weakness…!’

The thoughts of the man watching the battle were somewhat accurate.

A monster that recently joined the Legion.

-Cruk… The monster you met is called Vargast.

We fought a harsh civil war with the devil’s minions.

At the end of a big injury.

Survivors of a race that succeeded in driving them out.

-It is certainly a powerful magical beast, but it is a relatively helpless servant against extensive flames.

It was built up by his people sacrificing countless lives.

Knowledge of the devil’s minions…

came into the arms of the Legion.

* * *

Tanks and various artillery pieces, etc.

The result of mobilizing the firepower of military units.

A place where contractors stay.

The monsters on the outskirts suffered damage close to annihilation.

but.

The soldier who was watching this thought.

‘It’s real from now on.’

Where the contractors are located.

The center of the area protected by those minions.

It was a place with quite a few buildings.

naturally.

The battle took on the aspect of a street battle.

No matter how powerful the corps is, it has firepower.

In urban warfare, that firepower is bound to fade to some extent.

Each of the tall buildings acts like a medieval castle wall.

Each one of them acts as a barrier to block firepower.

It is not for nothing that urban combat is nicknamed ‘hell for infantrymen.’

but.

The current legionnaires.

It was a little different from the soldiers of the past.

Kwaaaaang!

“This side has been cleared.”

“Continue to enter!”

Even if they say there is no long-distance fire support.

Because each and every one of them was a warrior who transcended humanity.

An attack that took place in an instant.

Eat your fill of food.

Now I am influenced by [Commander’s Cry] and [Warsong].

Legion soldiers were infiltrating into the enemy’s interior at incredible speed.

at that time.

Clap…

from afar.

A sound like steel hitting each other is heard.

“That guy…”

“This is the guy the corps commander told us to be careful of.”

in front.

A minion in the shape of a huge knight appeared.

[Hell Knight]

A knight in heavy armor occupying the main street.

Although its size is relatively small compared to other giant monsters.

The presence emanating from the body was never at that level.

actually.

“Whoops…!”

Some soldiers attacked with weapons.

It couldn’t be dealt with easily.

-The knights of the underworld have no obvious weaknesses.

Of course, my body is strong.

A strong enemy with no obvious weaknesses.

“Shit!”

“Since the battle started by surprise, it is important to infiltrate quickly…!”

You never know what search methods the enemy might have.

As soon as the corps finished preparing for battle, they rushed forward without stopping and immediately entered into battle.

In order to take advantage of the effect of surprise, I tried to subdue the enemy as quickly as possible.

The moment when time was suddenly dragged by an enemy.

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

the sound of heavy footsteps is heard from behind the soldiers.

Let’s turn our heads to see that sign.

“…!”

“I am Corporal.”

A huge soldier.

stood behind them.

“I take charge.”

“Yes yes!”

Although the Underworld Knight was smaller than other monsters, its size was over 3 meters.

Compared to the soldiers approaching against it, the monster is at least one head larger.

But…

‘What kind of presence…!’

The energy radiating from that body.

Enough to make even huge enemies look small!

“Whoop.”

The warrior took a deep breath.

Throwing myself towards the knight.

Against him.

The knight of hell swung his sword.

“Legion’s…!”

There are veins on my forehead.

Teeth clenched.

My whole body is tinged with deep madness.

but.

“For victory…!”

Even though the madness is overflowing to the point that it covers my whole body.

There wasn’t a single mistake in the words he shouted as he leapt towards his enemy.
