Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 105
◈ 105. [[Free Exploration] Recapture Operation (3)
“Yes, you have to prepare this much to be considered the final challenger..”
The Crown seemed somewhat satisfied with the fact that this person even brought along an artifact..
“so… … Let's see how long I can last?”
At the same time, his hand flew down..
Their cannon installed over there caught fire. I shouted.
“damian!”
Damian pulled the trigger faster than I could shout..
taang-!
Damian had known the location of the enemy's main batteries from the beginning..
Before the fire in the cannon could trigger the cannonball, the magic bullet fired by Damian was sucked into the gun port..
Quaguagwang!
A shell exploded inside the gun port, and the cannon and gunner fell into the distance, engulfed in flames..
At the same time,
Fu shoot! Push shot!
patter……!
Arrows fired by the Nightcrawler unit began to rain down from all directions..
But this side only has five vanguard tanks with shields..
In addition, the SR grade artifact anti-missile barrier is activated..
Ting! Chae-chaeng-! T-Titting!
All the arrows they fired bounced off with the sound of heavy rain..
The five tanks completely turned back the enemies' long-distance attacks to no avail. excellent!
Gooooo-!
At that time, the sound of the air boiling rang out..
Two wizards standing on either side of the crown were casting attack magic. They were the ones who injured Jupiter..
One is the wind. One guy has fire attributes.
“junior!”
“I waited, your highness..”
Junior's narrowed eyes emitted a clear magical light..
Even before Junior entered the teleportation gate, he had accumulated magical power through multiple casting..
Two different colors of magic swirled to her left and right..
One is the wind. One is the water attribute!
The two enemy wizards fired magic at the same time. A huge tornado and a pillar of fire flew this way..
Junior also fired magic. A slightly smaller tornado and spray of water were shot out..
Kwaaaa!
The magic of both sides met in the air..
Junior was blocking a tornado with a tornado and a pillar of fire with a spray of water..
And when water and fire collide, water naturally has the advantage..
The wind and the wind entered into a power struggle in an antagonistic state, but the spray immediately extinguished the pillar of fire and rushed to the wizard who shot out the fire..
Going to school-!
“Pfft?!”
The enemy wizard who was swept away by Junior's spray groaned and fell backwards..
Almost at the same time, Damien, who had disabled the enemy's cannon, changed his target and aimed his magic gun again..
The target is the enemy wind mage..
“…….”
Although he hesitated for a moment, Damian stubbornly pulled the trigger..
taang-!
The fired magic bullet rushed towards the enemy wizard, who was emitting a tornado..
“This?!”
The enemy wind wizard was embarrassed and quickly turned his magic to deploy a shield..
Cheonggang!
The magic bullet failed to penetrate the shield and bounced off to the side. But he had enough.
“Thanks for the support, sniper.!”
The tornado launched by Junior swallowed the enemy wizard's tornado..
Quaguaguaidae!
“Wow!”
A rush of wind magic threw the enemy wizard back..
All these actions took only a few tens of seconds..
I gave one blow to both wizards, but I was not successful in neutralizing them..
They both seem to be quite high levels, so they couldn't defeat them to this extent..
Nightcrawler members hastily reloaded their crossbows and bows..
The two wizards who had fallen also stumbled, got up and prepared their magic again..
The tanks here also adjusted their shields, and Damian's next aim was completed. Junior is also ready to use his next magic..
“…….”
“…….”
A strange silence fell between the two camps..
Is it because we exchanged hands once and the turn passed?.
Both sides stopped attacking and just glared at each other as if they had promised..
It was the same for both Crown and I, who were each other's commanders..
The two of us were staring at each other motionlessly during the intense exchange..
“…….”
“…….”
My party members and the Nightcrawler unit members also began to glance at their commander..
Since both of them are stiff and won't move, it must be difficult for the subordinates..
But the two of us didn't move, as if we were having a snowball fight, or rather, a battle of pride..
How long has it been like that?.
“……It wasn't that long.”
It was Crown who spoke first..
“Did you prepare this much for that bird? You exceeded my expectations, player..”
“It's Ash.”
“Oh yeah. Prince Ash.”
Crown laughed softly in that husky voice..
“Doing this shit in the bottom of hell.”
“hmm?”
“I get to meet quite a few exceptional and talented friends like you. She gets really sad every time.”
“Why?”
“I wonder what it would be like if we met in a different relationship rather than as enemies..”
I was listening to this masked man's nonsense with a frown..
“We had a drink, asked about the outside world, and told stories about the past... … . That would be possible..”
“If you stop being hostile now, I'm willing to do that much..”
“ha ha ha!”
“That's the bard. I'll buy the alcohol, so I guess you can sing a song for me.?”
Crown shook his head..
“Unfortunately, that's impossible. There is also a position here..”
“Entrance?”
“Adventurers like you who want to delve into the darkness of this city... … I have to stop it.”
“is it. Right.”
I waved the stick in my hand..
Three magical rapiers flashed behind my back..
“Well then, what can you do? Should we try killing each other again?.”
“okay…….”
Crown also took out a gray flute from his pocket..
“Last player. Once I get rid of you, this hell can fall into eternal darkness..”
“I'm sorry, but I don't think that will work..”
Smirk.
I raised one corner of my mouth and smiled evilly..
“This place, rather than this dark hell, is going to be remodeled into a fiery hell..”
“……what?”
“There's going to be a carpet bombing soon. Then it will be very bright.”
At the same time Crown was wondering what he was talking about.,
Tututututu!
Took bang-!
Suddenly, a sound like a machine gun firing rang out. It was behind the Nightcrawler unit..
At the same time, hundreds of arrows with explosive properties struck their heads..
“what?!”
“from the rear……?!”
“Lie down!”
The panicked Nightcrawler unit quickly tried to take cover, but they were caught in a blind spot from the beginning..
Kugwagwagwagwang-!
A literal inferno carpet bombardment swept through Nightcrawler's forces..
Crown shouted sharply..
“unfold the shield!”
The wizards urgently sprayed magic to block the attack, but the blow was inevitable..
Nightcrawler members who were pierced by arrows or burned suffered groans..
Slam! Clap!
At the same time, two wizards and three archers appeared from behind them with their weapons raised..
shadow squad.
It was my sub-party led by Godhand..
“A separate unit, I say.?”
Crown muttered in confusion..
“No way, the detachment broke through area 3 of the dungeon... … Did you come here by land??”
“Ding dong dang. That's right, bro..”
A few hours before we entered here, the shadow troops took the teleport gate and moved to the base in area 3 [north of the outer castle]..
3I covered the entire area and walked to the base camp..
And wait with bated breath, after we get the first attack.
While the enemy's attention was completely focused on our main force, we surprised them from the rear..
Crown still didn't seem to understand..
“However, no movement was detected in Area 3, so how did it happen?……?”
As expected, our actions in the dungeon were being read..
So, they were able to attack as soon as they stopped by the base camp last time..
‘The answer is thanks to the special characteristics of the shadow unit..’
The shadow unit is from the Aegis Special Forces, a dark unit of the empire..
Very adept at stealthy movements.
Moreover, the sub-leader, Bodybag, is a telekinetic user. Quasi-flight is possible by floating party members in the air..
3The entire sector is made up of walls..
The shadow unit broke through the dungeon by floating in the air outside the castle wall without even setting foot on the castle wall..
‘This was the purpose of the last free exploration..’
I put the monsters away in advance and had the body bag check whether it could fly secretly..
The result was a spectacular success.
Since no movement was detected in the dungeon, the enemies thought that the only attack was through the teleport gate. The rear was completely taken away..
“I'm not kind enough to explain the principles of magic..”
I curled up the corner of my mouth in a disgusting way and raised my cane forward..
“So, what now? It's like we're completely surrounded..”
“…….”
“I wouldn't be so shameless as to beg for mercy now. If you have any last words, please leave them..”
Crown slowly raised both hands..
“Excellent, Prince Ash. It's completely an outsider's channel..”
“Do you admit defeat??”
“Every time I admit it. but… … I need to tell you one thing..”
Crown looked straight at me and muttered slowly..
“you can't kill me.”
“okay?”
I tilted my head..
“I don't think so.”
I raised my hand and then dropped it down..
Patter-patter!
Going to school-!
Five shadow troops fired arrows and iron bars at once..
“Wow!”
“Ahhhh……!”
Nightcrawler members, impaled by arrows and iron bars, collapsed, vomiting blood..
The two wizards who resisted until the end ended up turning into hedgehogs from the rain of arrows..
It was the same with Crown. Arrows and iron bars were stuck all over his body as he stood still with his hands raised..
“Cough!”
Crown slowly knelt on the floor after coughing up a handful of blood..
I walked towards the crown, ready to fire the magical rapier..
“Do you still think I can't kill you??”
“haha…….”
Crown smiled bitterly and nodded..
“Yes.”
“what?”
“Look around, Prince Ash..”
around? What's around?
I awkwardly raised my head and looked around..
And then I opened my eyes.
The body of a member of the Nightcrawler unit who died... … It was stained with pitch-black darkness, and then it melted and disappeared..
“……?!”
Horrified, I looked at the corpse of another Nightcrawler trooper..
It was the same. Their corpses were scattered and disappearing like a mirage, leaving only the arrows and iron bars that pierced their bodies..
“what?”
“What is this?…….”
Likewise, my party members, confused by this strange phenomenon, murmured..
“The darkness of this lake kingdom is deeper than you think..”
Crown let out a self-deprecating laugh..
“People in this country aren't even allowed to die..”
“They say they are not allowed to die... … ? What kind of nonsense is this?!”
“This is a literal story. The last player.”
Crown lifted the blood-stained mask and slowly looked around..
“And the ending of this foolish country that accepted that curse as a blessing is this hell..”
“Holy shit, explain it to me!”
“but… … okay. Let me admit it.”
Crown's body, which was only talking about what it had to say until the end, slowly fell forward..
“Maybe you can reach the deepest darkness of this hell…….”
I rushed over and grabbed Crown by the collar..
“Hey, stop answering Zen questions! Just explain it clearly and move on! hey!”
“Next time we see each other, we'll talk more then..”
Crown's voice suddenly lost its vitality..
“Then we'll meet in the deeper darkness…….”
The next moment, all the strength left Crown's body. It's desperate.
Afterwards, his body turned into a black mirage and dispersed..
“…….”
I was holding the air by the collar and slowly opened my hands..
There wasn't even a drop of his blood left in my empty hands..
“how…….”
I muttered helplessly..
“This dungeon... … What else are you hiding?……?”
