The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 314
Episode 314
“The intentions are too explicit.”
Raoul, who had already returned to the situation room, muttered softly as he checked the reports coming in.
-The empire’s superhumans appear simultaneously on each front.
-Rather than directly participating in the offensive, they are active around the defense line as if in a show of force.
This news was received before the report about the demon temple.
That was an intensification of the empire’s offensive.
Up until now, it had been a war of attrition using horsemen and horsemen, but now it looked like the main force would be deployed in earnest.
‘It was just perfect timing.’
As soon as the Tower of Demon World and the Demon Temple appeared, superhumans entered the battlefield.
That was no different from a declaration that they would tie these superhumans to the battlefield.
“Are you trying to buy time until the passage to the Demon World opens?”
Certainly, if there were imperial superhumans wandering around the border, it would not be easy for superhumans belonging to the country to move freely.
Moreover, the hands of superhumans are needed to clean up the monsters that pop out from the advanced gate wave.
‘It’s literally an all-out offensive.’
If there was no time limit, it seemed like it would be difficult to deal with with a limited number of people.
“What are the movements of the magicians?”
“Nothing has been reported yet.”
In response to Kane’s response, Raoul tapped the desk with his palm.
“It stinks.”
Superhumans appear, but the magicians are nowhere to be seen.
‘Does this mean they will keep their final cards hidden?’
Of course, ordinary superhumans are not a power that can be ignored, but honestly, their name value has fallen compared to before.
Right now, the number of master-level knights under Raoul alone has long exceeded one hundred.
If you include the players who had taken refuge in Raoul, the number was not small at all.
The reason why Raoul and the top executives do not go to the front is because they have enough superhuman strength.
Even though he immediately heard the news of the Empire’s superhumans, Raoul was not shaken at all.
The defense line will not collapse unless the Empire’s Demon Lord, the superman of supermen, directly participates in the war.
“First of all, maintain the current defense posture and have the emergency team keep an eye on the movements of the horse commanders. “If a request for support comes from another country, we will dispatch it appropriately.”
“Yes Master. “We will try to coordinate it well.”
Bernard answered in a trustworthy voice.
While Raoul was away, control of the army was left to Bernard and Philip.
And since Philip was often out in the field, rear command was ultimately Bernard’s responsibility.
Raoul wasn’t worried because it was a command structure that had already been in place for several years.
In case of emergency, instructions could have been given directly through guild communication.
“What is the situation at the Demon God Temple?”
“The attack ended in two places. “It’s the Demon Temple to the northeast of the place we cleared out, and it was probably handled by a party of warriors from the Holy Empire.”
“Hoo. “Is it pretty?”
Raoul said as if he was impressed.
In fact, I met Noel in person, but the force I felt on the outside was at the level of a master level.
However, the level of demons that appeared in the demon temple was quite high.
‘I dealt with him once before, so I sorted it out relatively easily.’
The Count of Demon World.
A strong person who exerts power at least equivalent to the highest level of Master.
After finding out that such people were hiding in the Demon God Hall, I expected other attack teams to struggle.
Even if the attack was successful, I thought it would take a considerable amount of time.
‘Are those who are given the power of God different?’
Anyway, the situation wasn’t as bad as I thought.
“Currently, there are five locations targeting the Demon God Temple. We have been notified that each kingdom, including the Kingdom of Ruben, and the Dwarves have begun an attack on the Demon Temple.”
“is it? “What’s going on in the elemental jungle?”
“It looks like they are still sorting out the variant gate. After clearing the gate, I wonder if we will attack the demon temple directly…”
Each kingdom and the dwarves, who were closely exchanging information, were less worried.
Since they had already been told about the level of demons that would appear in the Demon Temple, they must have prepared sufficiently.
The First Guild was so active that other kingdoms also had powerful superhumans.
Just as there are swordsmen in the Kingdom of Ruben, there are superhumans representing each country.
There was no need to worry right away, as there was no particular connection with Raoul, and each of them were strong men comparable to the magician.
‘Otherwise, there would have been no way that the kingdoms in the past life would have been able to withstand the empire for more than 10 years.’
Whether the Empire’s offensive was sincere or not, there have always been NPC superhumans who blocked the attacks of the Empire’s magicians and conquered Geumyeok.
And I wasn’t too worried about the dwarves either.
At least the chieftains who lead each dwarf tribe are masters or higher.
With the various technologies and Titans they have, they will be able to handle the demons of the Demon Temple.
The problem is the elemental jungle on the eastern side of the continent.
I honestly didn’t believe in a place where two governments, one from the elves and one from Earth, existed.
‘It’s unknown whether the elves who created the barrier will survive inside until the end, and in the case of the players…’
There was no choice but to leave a question mark.
If you simply look at the level, Ilwoo also surpassed level 130 and was labeled as a master level.
And now, without Il-woo, Spencer Miles of the coalition government, who is ranked first, is at 132LV.
Frontier Alliance’s Chinese ranker Wang Qiang was in 4th place with 131LV.
However, there was no guarantee that level and skill were proportional.
‘If possible, make wise choices.’
I can’t say it was a particularly good relationship, but I hoped that I would at least have enough strength left to protect myself.
Otherwise, it won’t be easy to navigate the world after the final scenario.
Anyway, we have figured out the general situation.
“What is the current position of our attack team?”
“They say they have arrived in the southern part of the Brennan Republic.”
“We’re leaving too.”
“Yes Master.”
If you wanted to conquer all the demon temples and enter the Tower of Demon World within the time limit, you had to hurry.
Raoul and Kane disappeared beyond the portal.

New Eden, the capital of the Earth United Government.
Inside the government building, the leaders of each country and several players were gathering and holding a meeting.
“So you’re saying that it’s impossible to conquer the Demon God Hall now?”
It was called a meeting, but in reality it was more like a hearing.
Heads of countries and politicians sit at tables arranged in a circle.
And standing on the low platform in the middle was a blond man with a strong look.
Spencer Miles.
He was the highest ranker in the coalition government and the leader of the strongest strategy team.
“yes. “It is impossible to attack the Demon God Hall with our own strength.”
The politicians present were agitated by his firm voice.
“Captain Spencer. Do you know what you mean? “Not being able to directly resolve the demonic war that has appeared in our territory is the same as admitting that our government’s power does not reach that of other countries!”
As former Chinese President Zhang Yuqian shouted, voices of agreement erupted from everywhere.
“It is said that other countries have already started clearing out the demon temple with their own subjugation teams. “It is completely unacceptable for us to be the only ones to withdraw from this situation.”
“Are you planning to betray the expectations of the people who respect you as a hero?”
“I’m disappointed. You give up without even trying. “I think Captain Spencer needs to think more seriously about the meaning of being number one in the player rankings.”
Various voices of criticism continued, and the expressions of Spencer and the players on the strategy team gradually darkened.
“Stop sleeping! “Let’s hear more about Captain Spencer.”
Only after former U.S. President Hutley Miles, the representative of the coalition government, shouted, did the uproar from the left subside.
Spencer sighed and opened his mouth.
“I have confirmed the data shared by the First Earl. Even though the level of the demons that appear in the Demon Goddess is low, they are at the highest level of master level. And there are more than ten intermediate level or higher demons. “I assure you, we are no match for our current strength!”
Then he closed his mouth and even closed his eyes.
“We also received that information. But didn’t you say that Captain Spencer also surpassed the rank of Master? And we have over 100 masters. “Government analysts have concluded that an attack is possible!”
“is it so. “Are you saying we can’t trust what our government says now?”
“ha. How much we have invested so far, and now you refuse to follow orders because you think your life is a waste! “If you continue to be so uncooperative, I will have no choice but to take back the authority you gave me!”
Those who stand up from their seats and even point their fingers and shout.
Spencer opened his eyes and shouted.
“You do that. I have no intention of getting stuck in this superficial position of leader. And I have no intention of entrusting my life to a leadership that does not even understand the situation properly and only makes idle talk.”
And then he left the conference room without looking back.
“Look! Captain Spencer!”
“stop! Are you really planning to sever ties with the government?”
The sound coming from behind could no longer stop him from moving.
The guards guarding the conference hall briefly tried to block his path, but were pushed back by the momentum of the players who were guarding him.
‘Ha, is there no other choice but to contact me?’
In Spencer’s mind, an encounter with someone who visited him yesterday came to mind.
-This is not Earth. It’s good to be loyal, but isn’t there a need to waste your life on the nonsense of ignorant people?
-If you need help, please contact us anytime. Count Raoul is a person who understands the people of Earth better than anyone else.
He was clearly a spy for the First Countess.
What was surprising was that no one noticed until he entered Spencer’s bedroom.
‘If even a single spy’s ability is so outstanding, how great are the truly talented people?’
He chose a coalition government to protect his loyalty and achieve his own ambitions, but that was while he was still alive.
A dark shadow was cast behind Spencer as he walked.
On the other hand, there was someone who made a different choice.
“Isn’t this already expected? “We cannot fall for Count Raoul’s cunning scheme again.”
“of course. When I dealt with them in person, the name demons was nothing more than an illusion. “If you promise us sufficient support and compensation, we will definitely attack the demon temple!”
Wang Qiang, the top ranker of the Pioneer Alliance, shouted in a confident voice.
The judgment of the Union leadership was no different.
The level of demons has already been determined by dealing with dozens of variant gates that have appeared in the territory.
They came to the conclusion that no matter how many high-ranking demons appear in the Demon God Battle, any super player over 100 can easily attack them.
‘joy. You’re probably thinking of scaring us into handing over the position of coordinator to Louis, right? I’m sorry, but I don’t fall for such shallow water. ‘I will definitely be the coordinator!’
The First Count must also have information about the coordinator.
There was no way to pass on correct information to the Pioneer Alliance, which was like a competitor.
It was clear that he was probably trying to give Purple Guild’s Lewis Blake a chance.
“I will deploy all superhumans except the commanders stationed at the border with the empire to the Demon God Battle. And after the subjugation is completed, I will hand over the levy authority of Zepid Village to Sir Wang Qiang.”
“Hahaha leave it to me!”
Wang Qiang, who felt good about the sweet reward, pounded his chest and shouted loudly.
And a few hours later.
About 100 superhumans from the Pioneer Alliance, including Wang Qiang, entered the Demon Temple.
The Union leadership had no doubts about their success.

Kkwajijijik.
The body of a demon with three large horns twisted in the air.
The demon’s body, with limbs grotesquely twisted like a paper doll, soon shrunk like a deflated balloon and disappeared with only black blood splattered on it.
Whirick sasasasasak.
Raoul gestured, and something translucent was quietly withdrawn into his inventory.
‘hmm. ‘He was a more comfortable opponent than I thought.’
The demon I met at this temple was also one of the demonic counts.
I didn’t know his rank, but he was easy to deal with because he had body strengthening characteristics.
This is because Raoul was overwhelming him both in swordsmanship and in absolute power.
Faaaat.
After the temple was conquered, Raoul and his group were taken out and disappeared into thin air.
‘So then where do we go now… huh?’
As Raoul was trying to decide his next destination, an urgent guild message came in.
“It’s a master emergency. The Pioneer Alliance punitive force’s attack on the Demon God Battle failed. There are very few survivors. And it looks like the Alliance has dispatched a delegation to the Empire.”
“You crazy people!”
Raoul cursed without realizing it.
There seemed to be no need to worry about the next destination.
