Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 127
◈ 127. [Side Story] Preparing for war (4)
Evangeline has destroyed four SSR equipment so far..
First, the cavalry spear and shield that he received as a graduation gift from the academy..
I broke this. The lucky strike I swung to overpower resulted in a jackpot of 777..
Next, a set of cavalry spears and shields bought from Nameless, a dungeon merchant NPC. [Spear Demon] and [Shield Giant].
This is just me and the two of us taking down 50 golems and smashing them to pieces..
‘How is it all related to me?.’
Anyway, all four pieces of equipment were broken in an unavoidable(?) situation..
I asked the blacksmith to disassemble these four broken pieces of equipment..
As a result, I was lucky enough to recover an SSR grade magic core. A request was made to manufacture armor using this magic core..
Since it was a magic core obtained by disassembling Evangeline's equipment, of course we manufactured Evangeline's armor..
“That's how it was created!”
After a long introduction, I quickly unwrapped the armor that lay next to me..
“This armor! Golem Armor!”
“…….”
Evangeline looked up at the armor I revealed with her small mouth open..
“What's this.”
“Hehehe. Are you that impressed, junior? Well, this is the armor I decided and ordered for you after much thought and consideration. ruler! It’s okay to shed tears of gratitude for your consideration..”
“No, that's not it..”
Evangeline pointed at the armor and shouted..
“You're ugly-!”
It's too harsh to say that this kid is ugly. How sad would it be if the armor was lifted?.
“Can you tell me that I look strong??”
“No, looking sturdy has its limits! What kind of top is this to wear??!”
Evangeline pounded the heavy armor with her hands. Immediately afterwards she freaked out and pulled her hand away..
“It's scary and different! What?!”
“Hehe… … Is this the result of alchemists' diligent research on golem armor fragments? Of course it's sturdy.”
I smiled sinisterly and went to stand next to the well-armored armor..
What was clear was that the armor plates were glued together… … Ah, no, it has a heavy appearance..
[Golem Armor (SSR) Lv.35]
- Category: Armor
- defense : 70-80
- Durability : 40/40
- health+25
- Each additional layer of armor increases the wearer's physical and magic resistance by 5 percent. (Total 50 percent)
- Each additional layer of armor reduces the wearer's movement and attack speed by 2 percent. (Total 20 percent)
It was the result of research on ‘Golem Legion Armor Fragments’ obtained by defeating the Golem Legion in Stage 3..
It became possible to manufacture armor with superior defensive power compared to ordinary metal..
‘Instead of gaining an advantage in physical and magic resistance, golem gloves are so heavy that they have a penalty to movement speed and attack speed..’
Usually, I end up mixing one or two parts into the armor to reduce this penalty..
But here's the reverse.
‘If you make armor plastered with golem armor,?’
That's this armor, the golem armor.
Instead of gaining enormous physical and magic resistance, you gain a huge penalty to movement speed and attack speed..
In particular, slow movement speed is fatal in fierce battlefields..
‘But here, Evangeline’s characteristic [Unstoppable] is activated.!’
Evangeline's characteristic [Unstoppable] is 100% resistance to movement-impairing status conditions..
Thanks to this, Evangeline can ignore the movement speed penalty attached to this armor on her own..
In other words, instead of only receiving an attack speed penalty, you get a scary amount of water damage..
In this way, it becomes a device that has a greater advantage than penalty..
‘This is the best armor for early to mid-level Evangeline..’
Although she has skills that help her attack, Evangeline is ultimately a pure tank..
In the middle of enemy territory, you must draw the enemy's attention and receive attacks with your body..
I've been feeling anxious watching him perform tricks with just a shield, but I think I'll feel a bit more at ease if I put him in a sturdy suit of armor like this..
“……It's thick.”
Evangeline, who finally tried on the armor, stumbled and muttered..
The extremely large and thick armor did not suit Evangeline's small body at all..
Should I say that I feel like a part-time worker at a festival waddling around the venue wearing doll clothes that don’t fit my size?……?
“What is this?…….”
Evangeline was in tears, but I was pleased and nodded..
‘After all, a vanguard tanker should show off the appearance of a hearty soup like this..’
My heart ached so much as I watched him fend off attacks from monsters with his thin limbs that looked like they would break if he was hit. That won't happen anymore?
“As you can see, these additional armors attached to the basic armor are removable..”
I explained while tapping the extra gloves that were attached to my entire body. Evangeline is looking at me with wide, excited eyes..
“If a lot of additional armor is damaged during battle, like this… … You can detach it by pressing the connection here. Then your defense will decrease but your mobility will increase..”
Golem armor has additional armor parts purged, that is, separated..
This is why I was able to make it right away without measuring it..
Because it is a type of armor with parts joined together. It's free size.
‘It’s a bit too much for a free size… … Although it looks big…….’
You'll grow taller in the future, Evangeline. Then you'll fit in better..
Evangeline, who was listening to my long explanation, muttered softly..
“dead…….”
“huh? what.”
“A fantasy I had about my first armor..”
“Yonseok. Don't worry about how stylish your armor is. Practicality is the best.”
It's a bit excessive, though. But it's still strong?
“Hey, the trend for knights these days is to look cool with armor! Wear shiny armor! Wear a cool helmet too! The cape is also fluttering!”
Evangeline squealed and then lowered her head..
“You can't promise me just one thing, senior.?”
“what.”
“Next time I wear different armor, please make it something really pretty..”
“Mmm.”
It's a story later, but your ultimate armor, [Snowwhite], is very beautiful..
What's worse is that a screenshot of you wearing that was used as a promotional image for this game..
“Okay, okay. I promise. But right now I have to wallow with vampires. Remember to wear that.”
“really… … I'll exterminate you, vampire.…….”
A spirit I had never seen before boiled in Evangeline’s eyes..
But it's kind of funny to wear waddling armor... … no, it's cool.
I looked away from Evangeline, who was fuming, and looked at the head of the blacksmith guild..
“Golem gloves to be issued to regular soldiers?”
“Currently, half of the forge's facilities are dedicated to producing golem gloves. It will be available to everyone before the defense begins..”
“good.”
It was decided to provide one piece of golem armor to each general soldier..
Each person can attach it to the desired part of their armor or add it to their shield..
‘Although it may not seem like a big deal, you need to steadily build up these upgrades one by one..’
If hero characters are hammers, ordinary soldiers are anvils..
You need an anvil to hit the hammer.
And both must be strong, so they can turn the monsters in between into blood clots..
As much as we provide equipment for heroes, we need to continuously strengthen the equipment for ordinary soldiers..
It seems like they are making too much of a campaign with just one armor part, though..
After giving additional instructions to the blacksmith guild leader, I turned to the party members..
“There will be a meeting tonight about the tactics of this defensive battle..”
Evangeline was waddling around in her new armor, and Lucas was openly laughing at her (Hey man). And then Damian (Hey Man 2), who was covering her mouth and laughing, looked at me.
“Let's each rest and come to the manor house by 6 PM..”
I grinned.
“Let's eat together and talk.”
This defensive battle will be fierce and difficult..
I was planning on explaining the strategy while feeding him something delicious..
***
Since this meeting was also an opportunity to announce the entire defensive strategy, I toured the city and summoned other party members as well..
Dion's mercenaries were in the barracks..
It was a little after lunchtime, and I was training, sweating profusely, at the training center inside the barracks..
“one!”
“two!”
“three!”
“The defense is shallow! Once more!”
Two thieves were attacking three warriors holding shields..
The warriors linked their shields together to prevent the defense from being breached, and the thieves also attacked together to somehow break through the defense..
Even though there are only wooden swords and wooden shields, there is a fierce battle going on..
“Nice to see.”
As I muttered, Dion, who only then realized that I had visited, was startled..
“Ah, did you come, Your Highness?!”
“omg?!”
“Did you come, my lord?!”
Five people with shields and wooden swords swarmed in front of me and bowed their heads. I grinned..
“Sorry about this during training. It looked great.”
“Oh no, no! I'm embarrassed because I feel like I showed you something you couldn't see..”
Dion was truly embarrassed, but deep down, I was re-evaluating them..
‘Even though I wasn't specifically instructed to do so, I was conducting party linkage training on my own..’
They are all N-rank heroes. I have no specs or skills to boast about..
In the end, there are not many things they can offer, and one of them is strong teamwork..
‘5If you can attack and defend as one body, you can fully cover the N-level limitations as well as low levels and specs..’
They know exactly which direction they need to go..
Dion looked back at the party members and smiled awkwardly..
“The other heroes under Your Majesty are all very talented, but we are ordinary. I shouldn't cause trouble. I have to at least train to death..”
“…….”
I didn't necessarily deny that..
To be competitive. And to survive on the battlefield. Because they must continue their hard work.
“There is a meeting at the manor house at 6pm this evening..”
He patted the shoulders of the five members of Dion's mercenary group one by one and said,.
“Take off all the sweat and wash up. I worked out hard, so I should eat delicious food..”
***
The shadow unit lives in a separate building a little away from the manor house..
Because I'm an elf, I'm worried about what other people think. They just gave us a separate building..
Shoo! push shot!
At the back of the outbuilding, there was an archery trail that had been prepared for some time..
Targets were placed in a chaotic manner, and scarecrows with lots of arrows were full of them..
When the three archers shot the arrows, the two wizards helped them train by moving the target..
Their training is very systematic..
“Old girl. Long-distance shooting accuracy is still low. Raise one point today. Skull. Close-range shooting speed is slow. Reaction speed training all over again. Burnout. What are you… … How long are you going to keep bombing? If you can only do that, you will die later..”
Godhand, who was giving feedback to the archers, looked back at me as if he felt popular..
“Your Majesty, are you here?.”
“Everyone is so eager.”
“You are here, Your Majesty.!”
“You came!”
The rest of the Shadow Corps bowed to me..
Only the old girl waved her hand slightly. hmm. It's still the same.
I stared at God Hand's hands..
“Are your hands okay??”
“sure. It is in perfect condition..”
“Thank goodness. I'll have to use my body starting tomorrow..”
I winked at Lucas, who followed me..
Lucas hopped onto the cart pulled by the horse behind him and opened the box on the cart..
Squeak-
The box was half full of shiny gray metal..
It's a silver ingot..
“It's yours. God Hand.”
I brought everything that was left over from making equipment..
“……With this amount of silver, I think you could hire not just the five of us, but an army as well..”
Godhand, who was confused, looked at me..
“Why do we do this to us??”
“You must have heard that the opponent for this defense battle is a vampire.?”
I grinned..
“And the vampires' weak point is this silver. Godhand, you are a metal master who can manipulate metal at will..”
“……!”
“how is it. With this amount of silver, wouldn't you be able to go on a rampage against vampires??”
Only then did God Hand realize my intention and smiled faintly..
“What can I do, Your Majesty??”
“6Come to the main restaurant of the mansion by o'clock. Let’s talk while eating… … ah.”
I winked at the little troopers..
“Is there anything you want to eat for dinner? If you have it, tell me now.”
Then the three archers immediately raised their hands with sparkling eyes. Like these gluttonous kids..
***
I sent someone separately to call Junior, and he replied that he would be there by 6 o'clock..
With this, all party members have been summoned..
I decided to rest for a while until everyone gathered together. I sat on the bed in my room and stared into space..
“…….”
A system window appeared before my eyes..
[Enemy Information - STAGE 5]
- Lv.? Vampire Lord: 1 body
- Lv.? Vampire General: 2
- Lv.? Vampire: 7 bodies
- Lv.25 Fallen Blood: 20 bodies
- Lv.20 Frost Ghoul: 970 bodies
- Until start: 9 days
‘It's coming.’
When I saw the enemy information window spread out, I felt dizzy. I eventually turned off the system window..
‘They're getting closer.’
This stage is difficult.
I prepared for a defensive battle with a lot of bravado and boastfulness, but I know the experience of a strategy..
I know that this stage will be terribly harsh..
However, knowing that it is unavoidable, I have no choice but to open my eyes and stare at the enemy wave..
‘Nothing changes. Every defensive battle, no, every moment is a one-shot, no-done battle..’
Risking the fate of the world, I throw a single move..
As always, that's what I'll do.
