The Cook of a Perished World - Chapter 50
Episode 50: Ammunition Battalion (4)
After shaking off the monsters, the vehicles set off cross the unit.
The destination is the enemy captain.
Where the ‘Queen’ stays.
‘I don’t know exactly where it is.’
Where should I go?
It was pretty easy to figure out.
-Shaaaaaagh!!!
[The Queen’s anger rings out.]
A roar that continues to emanate.
“Step in the direction you hear the sound!”
“yes!”
At the epicenter of that sound, there will be someone called the Queen.
Doo doo doo doo….
“Spiders are approaching from the other side!”
The road to the epicenter of the sound.
Spider monsters from a completely different place than where we came from have attacked us.
‘Because the ammunition battalion is so large, the ammunition depots are spread out in many places.’
Another ammunition dump.
no.
The individuals in the hatchery are probably jumping out and coming to hunt us.
Fortunately, the monsters running from afar were not concentrated.
Thanks to.
“Throw it away!”
Kwajijijijik.
-Keeeeeeek!!!
Large horns and thorny spear blades attached to the vehicle.
Most of the approaching monsters were cut down by the blades strengthened by Mac’s magic.
“Ha ha ha! How is it! “The power of a combat vehicle!”
“Good job you bastards!”
The awakened engineers chatted triumphantly.
It was powerful enough.
‘Prioritizing securing materials was the best decision.’
Of course, protective power.
A combat vehicle with added combat power.
A few monsters could be moved around without any problems.
As a result.
-Shaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!
The size of the roar that was heard.
It felt bigger than before.
“I think I can hear it from over there!”
“Isn’t that an ammunition depot too?”
soon.
We succeeded in getting to the source of the sound.
“Uh huh?”
“that. “I think it’s an ammunition dump.”
Like other ammunition depots, the depot looks like a tunnel or cave drilled into the mountain.
There is one difference.
“It’s so big…”
Igloo-type ammunition dumps that were being used as hatcheries.
The magazine itself was far too wide compared to the ammunition storage of a typical unit.
The door to the ammunition dump in front of me was beyond that level.
It is so huge that it looks like it was carved out of a mountain.
“That’s where our unit’s ammunition was supplied.”
“Lieutenant Kim?”
“It is the largest ammunition depot within the ammunition supply battalion. “I never thought the leader of the monsters would be here.”
An ammunition depot of that size.
It seemed like there would be no end to storing ordinary shells or ammunition.
It is of such a size that one might think that it might be storing missiles or something like that.
The huge door to the ammunition depot was half open.
And inside it.
A huge, white spider appeared.
-Shaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!
A white spider the size of a fairly large truck.
I saw an unrealistic sight of such a spider spitting and screaming.
“That’s the queen.”
The Queen’s Fear weakens enemies and strengthens allies.
Here, the enemy is us and our allies are the spiders.
Before that pier rang out, the battle itself was much more favorable to us.
In other words.
“If you remove the queen, the rest are just a bunch of sheep!”
Although the number is large.
I am confident that if I just remove the buffer, I will be able to deal with it somehow.
The baby monsters in the hatchery of another ammunition depot are chasing us.
I was planning to cut off the queen’s head quickly.
“It’s not just the queen.”
“With each queen, it didn’t seem like she would be alone. Shit.”
I’m sorry.
Kiik….
A queen the size of a large truck.
Although small in comparison, there were gigantic monsters around it, as big as vans.
There were about 20 large monsters.
Let’s take a look at that.
[Understand ‘Low-Level Cooking – How to prepare Arachron’s white spider.’]
The skill has been activated.
[Arachron’s sharp and strong forepaws are considered an excellent blacksmithing material, but it is difficult to use them as a food material unless you are a special race. First of all, the key is to prepare the front paws….]
[The skin shell is also hard, but in the case of body parts other than the front paws, when heat is applied, the skin softens and can be easily removed.] [Instead, the
flesh also softens a lot, so it can be easily removed. Pay attention to this. In order to maintain the taste, it is necessary to prepare the flesh delicately without crushing it…]
“The name is different.”
The spiders we’ve fought so far are named ‘Imperfect’.
Bodies that were even before they were properly born.
The giant spiders in front of me were different from those.
‘An adult that has gone through normal growth after being born.’
Incomplete fluid.
A complete Eucharist.
I had a feeling that it would be a difficult battle, unlike before.
but.
“We will end it quickly and quickly.”
Chicks that hatched in another hatchery and are running here.
Because the moment they join, it’s over.
“Sergeant Shin… Is this possible?”
After taking out the knife.
I’m preparing for battle by chewing and swallowing my combat rations.
Gwangil asked as if he was anxious.
I guess it’s something to say to that guy.
There is only one.
“Have you already forgotten?”
Is it okay?
Why not?
That’s not important.
“Even if it doesn’t work, we have to make it happen.”
Isn’t that what the military is like?
No, it’s not just because we’re in the military now.
“To survive.”
“…okay.”
This world itself.
The world has become one that has to be that way.
“Oooooh!!! To the battlefield! A glorious death awaits us!”
“We’re eating them for dinner tonight!”
“KIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!”
There was no need to say much.
Starting with Gwangil, who shook off his hesitation.
The warrior group rushed in and the awakeners in the back row took out their weapons.
It was the beginning of battle.
* * *
“Eliminate the queen as quickly as possible!”
“yes!”
When the awakened people rush in with their own weapons.
Engineers sat in the cockpit of a combat vehicle.
“charge!”
“Hahaha! I think this may be the case. “I’ve even designed it in preparation for fighting such a large monster!”
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu….
A combat vehicle modified by engineers.
The huge horn-like horn in front of it rushed towards the queen.
It was clearly an attack that would cause significant damage if it hit directly.
-Shaaaaaagh!!!
thud!
“Tsk…!”
“ah. Damn it, the engine should have been modified too!”
Let one or two adults cling to it and block its movement.
A combat vehicle that only spins its wheels and cannot move forward.
‘Even though it has been strengthened, the engine is just like the existing vehicle.’
It is ineffective if you lose in the power struggle in the first place.
If the level of engineers goes up, engine modification will be possible, but it doesn’t seem to be right now.
There seemed to be significance in the fact that several adult animals were missing to block the combat vehicles.
“Get out of the way, you bastards!”
“Those guys. “I’m obsessed with protecting my queen!”
The core of their power is the Queen’s buff.
Do the enemies know that too?
The queen just screams behind her back.
He did not come forward.
I looked at that and muttered incoherently.
“Are you even trying to find a position on the subject of a monster?”
A position commonly held in games.
It looks like the buffer is behind and the tanks are blocking the front.
‘Does this mean he has high intelligence?’
I can see that you have the intelligence to form a formation like that.
Even if you throw a debuff dish at it, it doesn’t seem like it will be picked up and eaten.
We also tried our best to somehow approach the queen.
visor!
-Keeeeee!
“Big…!”
The adult monster’s sharp paws blocked our path.
A battle that must be ended quickly.
But it’s not like this.
The battle has no choice but to prolong.
‘Anything is fine. ‘We have to find a way.’
But how?
Each and every monster is quite powerful.
If you have time, you might want to remove it in an instant…
‘Huh?’
That moment.
I discovered something strange.
“The monster who just blocked me!”
It is definitely a powerful monster.
But there was one strange part.
“I think I was missing a leg…?”
“yes?”
“…you’re right! “He’s the only one who doesn’t have any legs!”
When I took a step back from the battle and looked again, there was no doubt about it.
One of the monsters had no legs compared to the others.
‘No, it’s not just him.’
He’s the only monster at this level that doesn’t have legs.
But the same goes for other monsters.
A guy with strange bruises on his pure white body.
There was also one that strangely had the blade on its front foot limping.
“These guys.”
“Are you injured…?”
I don’t know where it came from.
The one without a leg seems to have suffered the most serious injuries.
If you have any weaknesses.
You can’t help but dig into it, right?
“That guy! A guy without a leg is a hole! “Concentrate your fire there!”
“““Yes!”””
The moment when I felt a little bit of hope as I thought I had found an area to attack.
“Sergeant Shin! In the back…!”
One of the soldiers making a long-distance attack in the back row screams as if he has discovered something.
I reacted to the sound and looked behind me.
‘Shit.’
From afar, a swarm of spiders hatched from another ammunition dump could be seen approaching.
There is still quite a distance though.
It will arrive soon.
If we are surrounded from both sides, we will be completely annihilated.
‘What should I do?’
In the midst of death.
My head was spinning like crazy.
‘getaway? no. No matter how strong a combat vehicle is, if even one overturns, it is a catastrophe.’
‘Should I rather dig into the ammunition depot? We won’t be surrounded from both sides… What if we’re not surrounded? ‘If you run away, you disappear, so how can you beat that number?’
No matter how much I racked my brain, I couldn’t come up with an answer.
Maybe he should have chosen to run away the moment he heard the Queen’s call in the first place.
‘If they disperse and escape now, a few people might be able to survive.’
The moment I was about to give the order to retreat.
I saw something inside the ammunition dump.
‘missile…?’
Big missile.
And shells.
“…Minjae hyung.”
“Retreat?”
“no.”
Did Minjae have any thoughts after seeing the war situation?
Although it seems like he was thinking of retreating.
My thoughts were different.
“Call all the fire wizards.”
“what…?”
For a moment, Minjae looked like he was wondering ‘what are you talking about?’
“No, since it’s what you do, you must have an idea. wait a moment.”
soon.
He nodded with a serious face and moved his body back.
“Did you call me!”
“A total of 7 members of the Wizard Joe Flame series. “The assembly is complete!”
In the midst of a fierce battle.
Only me and the fire-type wizards escaped for a moment.
Fire wizards who joined us from the unit.
There is also a survivor who recently completed awakening.
Even the younger brother of the sister who was close to Mr. Park’s grandfather.
The guys, whose faces were smeared with ashes from fire magic, gathered together, exhaling hurriedly.
One hour is an urgent situation.
There is no time to explain.
I asked about the only thing that bothered me.
“Let me ask you just one question.”
“yes! “Ask me anything!”
“you. Is it possible to throw a spell and have it explode a little later?”
If this doesn’t work, there may be some problems.
but.
“yes? ah. “Are you talking about delaying the explosion?”
“I have to be a little careful. “That’s it.”
“I don’t think it will be difficult!”
If even that were possible.
There is no problem.
“good. “You guys have work to do.”
“Loyalty. “Please leave everything to me.”
“Do you see the parts with spider webs sticking out inside there?”
Let’s point the finger.
The soldiers’ gaze turned toward the inside of the ammunition depot.
A huge ammunition dump covered in spider webs.
Spider webs were not only spread on the floor, but also covered objects that were sticking out.
“yes. “I can see it.”
“If you see it sticking out like that. Isn’t this probably where the shells from the ammunition dump were piled up?”
“It’s okay as long as it looks good.”
What they had to do was simple.
“What I said earlier. That delay magic? “Aim for those parts and shoot.”
“Not monsters. “You mean inside the ammunition dump?”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have time to explain. Become a strong guy as soon as possible. “Please.”
“…I’m not sure what you’re trying to do.”
“Because it’s Sergeant Shin’s job. There must be a reason. All right!”
The wizards who heard my request immediately closed their eyes and began to recite something like a spell.
After confirming that their preparations had begun.
This time, they returned to the battle line where the battle was in full swing.
“Sergeant Shin!?”
“It’s too dangerous here! “Sergeant Shin is not in a combat position, so fighting in the outskirts…!”
The place I was heading to was the most intense battlefield among them all.
It was a place where high-level warriors from our guild gathered.
If I were in the production industry, it wouldn’t be strange to visit anytime.
If it were him, he would be here.
“Gwangil! Jeon Gwang-il!”
“Kkekekeke. It’s fun! Try to please me more, you bug…”
“Come to your senses, you bastard!”
Gwang-il, the guy who single-handedly defeated an adult-sized monster like a madman.
I lightly hit the guy’s head.
“Cruk… Ah. Sergeant Shin?”
“Yeah dude.”
“Say it with words. “Why are you hitting my head like that?”
“….”
I’m sorry, even though I was enjoying it for a while.
You have to do the work.
“anyway. “What’s going on?”
“I have a favor to ask you.”
“yes?”
A place where the guys with the strongest physical abilities in the unit gather.
This is only possible with these guys.
“From now on, we will change our fighting style a little.”
“What are you trying to do… no. You must have an idea. “How can I change it?”
“It’s impossible to aim for the queen. “Push the monsters into the ammunition dump.”
“Rather than targeting the queen, we force them inside…”
The guy who thought for a moment quickly nodded and said.
“hmm. In fact, this would be easier than the current battle. Is that all?”
“one more. “After we succeed in getting them inside, we will have to close the ammunition storage door.”
“Yes?”
What’s in the ammunition dump.
Monsters called ‘Arachron’, including the queen.
and.
“It will explode the ammunition depot.”
Huge amount of explosives.
