I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 16
◈ 016. [STAGE 1] Preparation for war
[Ash (EX) changes to ‘beginner commander’!]
A fanfare sounded to celebrate the change of job..
and.
[A minus 50 percent debuff is applied to stat growth..]
[A minus 50 percent debuff is applied to equipment proficiency..]
……?
yes? What now?
“What, what??!”
For a while, I just blinked at the messages that were printed one after another. What did you say now??
“no fuck?”
Let me check and it was real. There really is a growth debuff stuck in the stat window..
“Don't be like that!”
What are you doing! Fuck! What job has a debuff like this?! For setting a trap like this, Ader, I'm going to destroy that damn director.…….
[Trait - Obtained ‘Attack Totem’.]
[Trait – Obtained ‘Defense Totem’.]
[Trait - Obtained ‘Super Buffer’.]
[Trait - Obtained 'Main Order'.]
[System - ‘Party Synergy’ is available.]
I was about to find a weapon and kill Ader, but I stopped..
A message flashed before my eyes that I had acquired characteristics and systems I had never seen before..
attack totem?
defense totem?
Super buffer? Main order? party synergy?
What are these again? I opened the properties window.
[Attack Totem Lv.1]
- Just entering the battlefield increases the morale of allies and provides a 5% bonus to the attack power of all allies..
[Defense Totem Lv.1]
- Just entering the battlefield increases the morale of allies and provides a 5% bonus to the defense of all allies..
“…….”
So, it is literally a totem trait. Just by being on the battlefield, I get a bonus to my allies' attack and defense power..
furthermore,
[super buffer]
- Increases all buffs provided by the commander character by one level..
Followed up to one level of reinforcement.
‘It's a bitch?’
No, it's not like honey. If this buff applies to all allies, it's just a disaster..
With just one character trait, you can grant attack and defense upgrades to thousands of allies..
‘This is why I personally put a debuff on myself..’
The buff itself is a scam, but if even individual commander units, which are buffers, can grow, it would be too much of a scam. I guess they put a debuff on the growth rate..
This isn't bad at all. No, if you look at it calmly, it's very good..
‘The only minor problem is that only 3 traits can be worn..’
These three traits are good, but if you wear all three, you cannot use the other traits..
I also looked at other newly acquired traits. see.
[Main Order Lv.1]
- Ability to accurately convey orders on the battlefield. Communicates the commander's intentions more accurately and makes his subordinates act like limbs..
It was a trait related to troop control..
It's easy to control hundreds or thousands of troops in games, but this is reality. It's difficult to move the battlefield as I intend.
It seems to be a characteristic that makes it easy..
‘[Mapping] is also here.’
So a total of five characteristics.
The cooldown for attribute replacement is 24 hours, so you will need to change attributes as needed depending on the situation while engaging in battle..
‘This is enough for the characteristics.’
The party synergy system was also unlocked. This is my first time seeing this too.
[party synergy]
- Commander class perks.
- Ability score bonuses are provided to the party depending on the class composition of party members. Try different combinations.
Bonuses are given depending on the composition of party members.?
I opened the synergy list table and checked the top row..
[Party Synergy List]
- Knight Synergy: Physical defense increases depending on the number of knight characters in one party.
> (Article 2) Dual Knights: Physical defense of all party members increases by 20%.
> (Article 4) Iron Squad: The physical defense of all party members increases by 50%..
> (Article 5) Unbreakable: The physical defense of all party members increases by 90%..
“Hoo.”
In this way, you receive additional abilities depending on the party composition..
As you continue playing the game, the number of heroes you recruit increases and the number of parties you operate increases..
All such parties receive synergy bonuses depending on the combination..
“It's okay…….”
This system itself is a perk of the commander class..
As a player, I was sent directly into the battlefield, and I wondered if there was a better job than this..
I gently put the poker I had taken to kill Ader back in the fireplace. sorry~
***
I tried various strategies to clear Stage 1, but ultimately came to one conclusion..
standard.
I have a lot of tricks, but I'm not ready to use them, and I don't have the time. It is best to prepare a sound defense for the remaining time..
Based on that judgment, carpenters, masons, blacksmiths, and alchemists were conscripted to reinforce the defense line..
“……No, by the way. I've been conscripted for a long time.”
I broke into a cold sweat looking at the four people in front of me..
Carpenters' Union President. Chairman of the masonry union. The head of the blacksmith guild. Alchemist's Guild Leader.
Old men with grim faces were dragged in front of me with their entire bodies tied with ropes..
“Not kidnapping, but conscription.!”
“Well, not everyone responded to the conscription order..”
Ader scratched the back of his head shyly..
“As a matter of urgency, I brought only the union leaders..”
The union leaders, who did not hide their displeasure at the polite ‘bringing’, shouted as if they had been waiting..
“What is this all of a sudden?!”
“No matter how much you call yourself a member of the royal family, there are instances.!”
“The magic stone processing line is in full swing, so what are you going to do if you drag us along like this? Will your Majesty take responsibility if there is any loss in our processing line??!”
Look. Everyone is angry. Look at me yelling with blood on my face.
I couldn't hide my regret and apologized to them softly..
“Are you going to run after me, you bastards??”
“…….”
“Which safety are you shouting about? uh? Fuck, I’m easy.?”
The four union leaders immediately shut their mouths. I continued to warm them up..
“What if I, the prince of this country and the lord of this city, called you? It's production, and crawling on all fours isn't enough, huh? Are you going to bring me here and let me go and roll your eyes? Are you hurting my heart? I really want to rummage?”
“No, that's it.…….”
“Sorry, sorry…….”
“This is our first time hosting a royal lord.…….”
The union leaders immediately sighed and closed their eyes..
In times like these, I am thankful for Ash. You can let go of the damn thing easily thanks to the fact that you have built up nationwide recognition as a bastard..
“attention.”
When I growled, the union leaders immediately straightened up. Cold sweat glistened on the faces of the old people..
I think I've scared you enough, so shall I let you go again?.
“hey. I know you guys are busy. It's been a while since I received a lot of high-quality magic stones, so I asked about the number of cases. We'll be busy processing and packaging..”
“Yes, that's right.”
“But who saved the magic stone??”
I pointed at myself with my thumb..
“And who will I save in the future??”
“…….”
“You have to look your best! That opponent is! who?!”
“It's me, your highness.…….”
“yes. Just remember that fact first..”
I wiped the smile from my face..
“Get to the point. An army of monsters is invading.”
“……?!”
“I will arrive in this city in three days..”
The embarrassed union leaders looked at each other..
“But the monsters have been quiet in recent years.…….”
“Even if they appear occasionally, most of them are defeated before they even reach the Crossroads.?”
“That said, things have changed. I didn't hear the news that the forward base was blown away.?”
I clicked my tongue and shook my head..
“The monsters started moving again in earnest. The scale is also not normal. Thousands are possible. It won't end with this, they will keep attacking you..”
“……!”
“And we… … Let me be honest. lack of power.”
I folded my arms and looked around at the union leaders heavily..
“I need help. All the production workers in this city need your help..”
“Even if you say so... … what do we do?”
“I would like to lend a hand in the production of military supplies. of course! I'm not asking you to do it for free. I'll pay you enough.”
I grinned and snapped my fingers..
“The monsters' movement is a crisis, but it is also an opportunity. yes?”
As monsters have become calmer over the past dozen years, the collection of magic stones has naturally decreased..
The Maseok processing industry was also experiencing various difficulties..
But if the monsters increase again?
The production of magic stones also increases..
If the production of magic stones increases?
money is pouring in!
“Do it like this.”
I applauded.
“We will provide you with some of the magic stones recovered by the military at cost price. Would 20% be enough? Gradually adjust the ratio.”
The union leaders’ eyes widened..
“yes?!”
“Is it really true??!”
“Well then, really. It would be beneficial for you if there was a direct line to obtain magic stones.?”
Until now, the method was to sell the magic stones recovered from the military to merchants, and then the merchants would request production workers to process the stones..
But there's no need to do that.?
“There is no need to feed the middlemen. Let’s do a direct transaction between us..”
There is no need to split it and eat it..
In the long term, I planned to bring all production workers in the city and even the Maseok distribution line under my control..
It eats up not only the production of magic stones, but also processing, distribution, and sales..
“instead. In the future, when I give orders, military supplies must be produced as a top priority. Of course, the price for production will be paid accurately..”
I pointed at the union leaders who were swallowing dry saliva..
“What is it like? Isn’t it a good deal??”
In the end, I was boiling them with money and interest using credit cards..
Is it too much of a golden omnipotence??
“I'll do it!”
“Let's do something!”
“When and what can I do??!”
Then what should I do? There is nothing in this world as trustworthy as money..
***
After finishing the meeting with the heads of the production workers' union, when I came out to the entrance of the mansion, all the hero characters were gathered..
Lucas. Damian. lily.
And a new party leader. Jupiter.
Lucas, Damian, and Lily exchanged greetings comfortably since they were familiar with each other..
However, perhaps because of Jupiter's unique sinister atmosphere, he was awkwardly alone on the other side..
Of course, Jupiter, not the type to care about such things, puffed on a cigar and carefully looked at the other party members..
This grandmother, her eyes look like she's looking at her cute grandchild..
‘You'll become friends on your own.’
I didn't pay much attention and started explaining to the party members..
“I think you heard a general explanation of the situation from Lucas..”
I nodded, looking around at the four people staring at me one by one..
“Monsters, to be exact, 1,000 Living Armor Legion troops are advancing on this city. Arrival time is about three days from now..”
hmm.
Everyone's faces suddenly said, 'X!' It's kind of funny to look at.
