Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 136
◈ 136. [STAGE 5] Road of Ice and Corpses
The shattered corpses of ghouls are strewn like weeds in the fields..
Fires are burning throughout the land hit by artillery fire, sending acrid smoke rising into the sky..
On this devastated battlefield road.
The 10 vampires are walking lightly as if they were out for a walk..
It's still far away, but it's clearly visible even with the naked eye..
‘smiling.’
These monsters, walking through the corpses of our soldiers scattered everywhere, laughing.
I learned from them that regular artillery fire and sniping are pointless, so I didn't give shooting orders..
The vampires got closer in an instant..
When they got within earshot of each other, I shouted.
“Can I ask you a question, Vampire King??”
Then the vampires all stopped..
Celendion looked up at me while sitting on the palanquin and smiled..
The smile on his innocent boyish face gave off a bloody smell..
《However much. ash.》
“Why did you send the ghouls first and let them die??”
Celendion tilted his head at my words..
《I don't know what you're talking about.》
“While your ghouls and Fallen Blood minions were annihilated, why were you vampires just watching from the back?.”
Even though the bosses Selendion and Alpha Beta are like that,.
Wouldn’t it be worth sending in a wave of regular vampires?.
I asked because I couldn't understand the tactical aspect. however.
《You sound strange. human.》
His answer to my question was truly unexpected..
《Do you humble yourself with your dogs??》
“what……?”
what is this sound.
《My ghoul subordinates who were annihilated earlier are... nothing to us vampires. … It is similar to a domestic hunting dog..》
Celendion explained calmly..
《Of course, I cherish and love you. So much so that it would take my life away. This is my loyal and courageous army that fights the enemy together. But it's clear.》
“…….”
《Isn't it impossible to eat together at the same table??》
Crackling!
my teeth came together.
“……What do you mean by ‘meal’?.”
《You know, right?.》
Celendion stretched out his hand and pointed towards us..
《It's you.》
“…….”
《You humans are our meal. ash.》
I clenched my fists. Celendion kept talking to me..
《Release the hunting dogs first. A person who is weak enough to be killed by a dog is dog food. But if you survive my dogs, you can say that you have finally proven your minimum qualifications..》
“Qualification… … I said?”
《Yes. We deserve to be eaten by vampires..》
Celendion smiled softly and looked at us on the castle wall..
《I don't really want to eat humans, who are food for dogs. That's why the dogs are released first and 'selected'..》
“…….”
《Isn't it the same for you too? Eat more delicious meat from high-quality livestock. What about the leftovers? Don't you give it to dogs and pigs? It's the same thing.》
Talk nonsense, confidently.
This vampire bastard was spitting..
《I am a vampire. Strong and willing. Knows how to struggle. I want noble human blood. Because it tastes much better that way.》
“…….”
《You, who withstood the attacks of my dogs, also proved yourself worthy..》
The corners of Celendion's mouth curled up eerily..
The rest of the vampires had the same horrible smile on their faces..
《Self - let yourself be happy. Humans.》
They looked at us with appetizing eyes, as if we were looking at a piece of meat on display at a butcher shop..
《You all have a chance to be our food..》
Celendion said so.
“Pfft…….”
“crazy bastard…….”
The soldiers, their complexions turning pale, hesitated and stepped back..
The vampires, except Celendion, let out a giggling laugh..
Staring at us with the gaze of an obvious predator.
“……damian.”
As I was inevitably grinding my teeth, I looked to the side..
“Make me a laugh from those ruined cubs..”
“Yes, prince..”
Damian raised the crossbow in front of his chest..
“As ordered.”
Damian pulled out an arrow from the quiver in front of him and loaded it into the crossbow..
Take a breath, take aim and-
Push shot!
lightly shot.
***
nettle-!
An arrow is shot from the castle wall and flies away..
The arrow pierced the sky in an instant and approached the vampires..
《Oh dear.》
Alpha, who had previously blocked hundreds of silver arrows and returned them to the castle wall, laughed..
《You're doing something that won't work again..》
How can humans be so foolish?.
Anyway, it's the fate of prey caught in a spider's web.
No matter how hard I try to resist, I can't escape. Why don't you realize it until the last moment?.
《I wish this kind of resistance would stop now..》
While saying that, Alpha waved his hand..
An enormous amount of magic flowed through the bloodstream of his body. Alpha stretched out his hand and tried to grab the arrow with his magic power..
《……?》
but.
《uh?》
something was strange.
Even if I tried to snatch it with magical power, the arrow's trajectory strangely deformed each time. As if I had an ego.
‘What is this……?’
Alpha, who was embarrassed, eventually gathered his magic power and opened a shield, but,
Clang-!
breakthrough.
The arrow immediately pierced the shield and rushed between the alpha's neck and chest..
Alpha realized that he would not be able to stop this attack..
《Big black?!》
That moment,
Kwasik-!
Beta rushed in and swung his ax, hitting the center of the arrow shaft. The arrow shattered before it reached Alpha..
At that moment, the strange power contained in the arrow disappeared, and the arrow shattered and rolled around on the floor..
《Heo-eok, heo-eok…….》
Alpha, with a shiver down his spine, looked down at the arrowhead rolling on the floor..
The red-tinged silver gave off an eerie glow..
《What are you doing, Alpha?.》
Celendion asked with a smile on his face..
《He couldn't block a single arrow..》
It wasn't a criticism, but it seemed like he was enjoying seeing the alpha's embarrassment. But Alpha was serious.
《No, that's it, load. this is… … different!》
《Hey, what's the difference??》
《This arrow... … It's not an ordinary silver arrow.》
His blood magic was destroyed in an instant. Alpha had a hunch.
《This arrow is dangerous!》
At the same time as Alpha warned,
Fu shoot! Fu shoot! Push shot-!
Arrows were fired continuously from the castle wall..
The long-distance sniping that flew in a parabolic arc was targeting ordinary vampires..
《What is it, arrow?》
《That's mean…….》
《This is it!》
The vampires, like Alpha, laughed at the sniping and tried to lightly block it..
but.
Sigh! Phew! pucak!
《Ugh?!》
《Hehehe?!》
《what-》
Couldn't stop it.
The first vampire's neck was pierced after the shield he was trying to block the arrow with shattered..
The second vampire's palm and neck were pierced together as he tried to block the magic power in his hand..
The third vampire turned into mist and tried to escape, but the arrow pierced his neck nonetheless..
Three vampires with arrows stuck in their necks coughed up blood. A look flashed in Selendion's eyes..
《It's not an ordinary silver arrow. This could not be… … Is it silver from another world??》
Alpha broke into a cold sweat after examining the arrow fragments on the floor..
《yes. My last name is Eun. But it's not just that. It looks like he even got alchemy with the devil's mistletoe..》
《You use that precious silver and even mistletoe to make arrows? It's pretty good. Looks like they're preparing hard to kill us..》
Celendion snorted..
《But this alone is not enough…….》
That moment.
Took bang-!
The sound of gunfire was heard from above the castle walls..
Why? The moment I heard that sound, the world's vampire king Selendion's neck... … I got goosebumps.
《what?》
Celendion's blood-red eyes followed the trajectory of the projectile fired from the castle wall. Celendion was soon able to find out its identity..
《magic bullet?》
nettle liquid!
The magic bullet that flew in hit the head of the vampire whose neck was first pierced.,
Powok……!
I just exploded my head.
The body of the vampire who had caused the bloodshed collapsed helplessly on the floor. And she never regenerated or resurrected again..
The spiritual core was destroyed..
But Celendion didn't care about his subordinate's death..
《……this is.》
Selendion, who was looking down at the exploded head of his subordinate, urgently raised his head..
Took bang-!
Two shots.
A magic bullet flew at the vampire, who was croaking with his neck and hands pierced by arrows. She couldn't avoid it either..
Powok-!
instant death.
Seeing his subordinate's head exploding, Celendion laughed..
《This magic bullet……!》
Toukwaang!
Third shot.
The third vampire turned into mist again and tried to dodge, but realized that dodge was impossible..
He sensed death and closed his eyes tightly..
percussion-!
Chii Iik……!
But it didn't die.
Selendion flew out of the palanquin and stretched out his hand to grab the magic bullet..
Selendion's grip was torn as he received the incredibly powerful magic bullets, and blood splattered everywhere..
But regardless, Celendion looked down at his blood-covered hands..
《The magic power of this magic bullet... … Is it Orlop's?!》
In that case, the magic gun that fired this magic bullet must have been cast from Orlop's magic core..
《A weapon made from the essence of the Nightmare Legion Commander - Nightmare Slayer..》
Celendion's face filled with joy..
《It's a weapon that can really kill me.!》
***
Strike with silver, finish with magic.
This is the basis of the strategy we have established against clans..
Damian was doing it alone against the vampire. Castles are made by shooting arrows and sniping with horse guns..
In an instant, two vampires were sent to the underworld, and just as they were about to finish the third, Celendion interrupted them..
But where did you catch the two?.
“Haha, haha, whoo!”
Damian was panting heavily as he fired arrows and the Black Queen..
Because he had to aim for the spirit core, he fired with more concentration than usual, and it seems that his stamina consumption was unusual..
Still, I was about to fire another shot, so I quickly grabbed Damien's shoulder..
“Stop, Damian.!”
“yes? Ha, ha, but! yet!”
“You did a good enough job. I really broke the arrogance of those arrogant guys..”
I also want to keep shooting.
Celendion has already started to block it. If you shoot more, it's a waste of ammo and stamina..
“Take some rest and recover. There's still work to do.”
“yes…….”
Damien sat down against the castle wall and began to catch his breath. i saw south.
When this attack stopped, the vampires began to advance again..
Throwing the body of his dead comrade behind him, he still walks lightly..
They were really close now. Even the fine wrinkles on my face were clearly visible..
And, Celendion was smiling.
《Self, self, self! Fight, man! prove your worth!》
With a smile more sinister than any other face I've ever seen. I'm so happy I'm dying.
《Will it be food for livestock, will it be a meal for our vampires, or will it kill me and survive! Ego! Fight! It's a struggle!》
