I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 19
◈ 019. [STAGE 1] Killzone
is basically a defense game..
What are the general principles of defense games??
The monsters have clear behavioral patterns. By identifying the pattern, players can develop a defense plan..
Most monsters have one behavior pattern..
‘kill humans.’
Take the shortest route and kill the nearest human..
Because this behavioral pattern is clear, multiple strategies can be used..
The easiest operation is manned. You can dispatch a small unit to attract the monsters' attention and guide them to the desired location..
And next, my favorite strategy is ‘route forcing’..
Blocking the road with wooden fences, walls, barricades, etc. wastes their movement..
If the path is completely blocked, the monsters will destroy the obstacle and advance. But just go a little further
If you give it to them and lure them into a small unit, the monsters will be guided that way..
And the crossfire is placed at the end of the guided path..
Drive monsters into a narrow area, concentrate firepower, and eliminate them all at once..
This is the basics of defense game strategy..
“‘It's a 'kill zone'!”
I clenched my fists and shouted.
pop! Bubbling bubbling!
The monsters slowly poured in through the entrance between the outer walls of the fence..
The cannons on the castle walls continued to fire at the monsters..
Quagwang! Kugwagwang-!
With a dizzying explosion, the Living Armor that passed through the door melted..
“fire-!”
I waved my arms one after another and shouted loudly and loudly..
“launch! launch! Don't leave any gaps! Keep shooting! Shoot until the gun barrel melts-!”
Lucas repeated my command and delivered it..
“Shoot, reload and shoot again! Don't give them a chance!”
Soldiers clinging to each cannon repeatedly reloaded and fired cannonballs, sweating profusely..
Distant gunshots rang out one after another, and explosions continued to occur at the point of impact. Living Armor was helplessly shattered..
But it doesn't end here.
“lily!”
I turned to the side..
“The gravitational field artifact is?”
“I'm ready!”
Lily, who happened to be in charge of the artifact, quickly answered. I nodded..
“Activate it!”
“yes! Gravity field artifact activated!”
The waiting alchemists repeated in unison and activated the grey-brown magic device..
“Artifact, activated!”
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
With a strange driving sound, a gravitational field artifact unfolded..
One of the few R-rated artifacts that has been repaired.
The effect is extremely simple. Strengthens the gravity of some areas and slows down the opponent's movement..
But simple yet powerful.
As the gravitational field covered the kill zone, the Living Armors, which were already too heavy and slow, began to struggle..
Naturally, the accuracy of artillery fire increased..
“……Isn’t it enough to just stop it like this??”
Damien, who was observing the inferno next to me, asked in a panic..
“Monsters, they can't get through there.?”
“…….”
I kept my mouth shut and carefully looked at the Living Armor being torn apart by the crossfire..
If I could have easily stopped them with such a simple strategy, I wouldn't have defined Living Armor as my worst enemy..
just as expected.
Clap, clap, clap.……!
One by one, the monsters escaped the kill zone through the thick smoke..
Everyone in Living Armor is holding a shield..
He raised his shield forward without any gaps and withstood it by reducing the power of the cannonball..
They are monsters made of strong armor to begin with..
Even if you concentrated your bombardment and inflicted a lot of damage, it was impossible to kill everyone cleanly..
“ballista unit!”
That's why we prepared a separate cleaning team..
“Start shooting at those who escape the crossfire.!”
Immediately Lucas repeated my command..
“Ballista, shoot!!”
“yes! open fire-!”
The soldiers who were waiting with their ballistas loaded began shooting all at once..
Boom! Tu-tu-tu-tung!
With a dull firing sound, large arrows were fired from the ballista..
The arrows fired flew at the Living Armorers who put up their shields and exited the kill zone..
Kwasik! Quad Deuk-!
The sound of the shield being crushed rang out horribly..
The Living Armor, which was already in tatters from withstanding the artillery barrage, was unable to withstand the ballista fire and fell down..
Ahhh……!
Slurp, flutter!
As I looked down at the Living Armor falling down like a scarecrow, I turned on the enemy information window..
[Enemy Information - STAGE 1]
- Lv.? ??? : 1 body
- Lv.5 Living Armor Assault Trooper: 810 (Kill Counts) : 242)
The kill count was rising frighteningly..
‘Okay, it's standard..’
Create a kill zone and hold enemies there for as long as possible, clearing them all at once..
It was according to standard defense tactics. Even though it was the first stage, he was fighting well in his own way..
If only we could keep the line like this…….
“majesty!”
but,
“There are guys that come around the wall.!”
“……!”
It's not that easy a game.
I quickly raised the telescope to where Lucas was pointing..
Some Living Armor troops were returning, taking a long detour left and right around the wooden fence wall..
Since it would just be destroyed if completely blocked, a path was left open in the middle and at both ends..
As the middle road became blocked and congested, the Living Armor in the back row began to take detours to the left and right..
There weren't many people coming around. But I had to stop it.
“Jupiter!”
I immediately called Jupiter. Jupiter and his party retreated close to the castle walls and waited..
“Entrust the Living Armor unit coming to the right of the fence! Hit and run to intercept and block it!”
“I'll do as you say..”
Jupiter nodded at me and lightly kicked the horse in the stomach..
“let's go! Hey!”
Five people from Jupiter's party ran like flying..
Jupiter rushed at the bypassing Living Armors and waved both hands..
“Eat this away!”
flashing-!
Kuwagwanggwang!
Lightning struck, and the Living Armor was fried by lightning..
‘good. Jupiter is blocking it well over there..’
The only ones left are those who take a detour to the left..
I looked to the side. When our eyes met, Damian swallowed dry saliva..
“damian.”
“Yes, yep!”
“It's your turn.”
I gestured towards the Living Armor approaching from afar..
“Take a detour to the left of the fence and snipe the guys coming..”
“……yes.”
Damian tightened his grip on the crossbow in his hand and walked up to the castle wall..
Mount the crossbow on the castle wall and aim at the Living Armor running in front.,
“Phew…….”
I closed my eyes, took a breath, and opened my eyes..
And pulled the trigger.
Cheolkeong!
Push shot-!
An arrow was fired from a crossbow with the sound of wind ripping..
The arrow that was fired flew far beyond the range of a typical crossbow..
Gradually!
The leader Living Armor, who was targeted by sniping, raised his shield upward, but,
Tsukaak-!
The arrow twisted its body like a snake, drew a strange trajectory in the air, and burrowed into the shield, avoiding it..
Going to school!
It penetrated the gap between the helmet and breastplate of the living armor..
The blue glow that had been fluttering inside the armor dissipated and shattered..
Rumble, coogung!
The armor monster's movements stopped in an instant, as if its heart had been pierced. Then the empty armor fell on the floor..
The mouths of the soldiers watching this all gaped. I grinned in satisfaction..
This is [clairvoyance]].
Find the enemy's weak point and snipe accurately..
‘Even so, I never thought I could pierce the spirit core of a ghost with an arrow from an ordinary crossbow.…….’
How much compensation do you get? This is a trait of a dogfighter.!
Fu shoot! Fu shoot! Push shot!
Damian continued to fire arrows without taking a breath..
Yeah…….
Wow!
And those arrows pierced all of the living armor..
one shot one kill.
It was truly a work of magic. The soldiers around looked at Damian with their mouths wide open..
Damian paid no attention to the attention of those around him and continued to load and fire arrows..
The front is a kill zone. On the right is Jupiter. Damian on the left.
The defensive battle went extremely smoothly.,
[Enemy Information - STAGE 1]
- Lv.? ??? : 1 body
- Lv.5 Living Armor Assault Trooper: 560 (Kill Counts) : 492)
500 kills are just around the corner!
I nodded, looking at the stabilized front line..
‘If things continue like this, everything will be smooth sailing until the boss mob appears.?’
It was then.
A faint fog-like thing was billowing out from the broken armor of the dead Living Armorers all over the battlefield..
“……?”
I closed my eyes in a daze..
What is that again??
There was nothing like that in the game.?
The fog slowly gathered in the sky, condensed, and became one lump..
What was once whitish became increasingly clearer. The more Living Armor dies, the more…….
Finally, the moment the kill count reached exactly 500,
ring!
A change occurred in the enemy information window..
[Enemy Information - STAGE 1]
- Lv.25 Ghost Knight: 1
- Lv.5 Living Armor Assault Trooper: 552 (Kill Counts) : 500)
The name of the hidden boss monster was revealed..
Living Armor Corps' boss monster, 'Ghost Knight'’.
This is all the information I know up to this point..
However, as soon as the name is revealed,
Saaaaa!
The fog that had gathered in the air began to take shape..
With grotesquely bent pale limbs and tattered mat... … Should I say a giant ghost?.
‘The boss monster of the Living Armor Corps is the Ghost Knight.!’
When you defeat all the normal monsters in the Living Armor Corps, all the ghosts in the armor merge together and appear..
This is the cause of the Living Armor Corps' bizarre strength..
The legion itself is strong, but even if you defeat them all, a boss monster appears as if in Phase 2..
‘However, we haven't defeated all the Living Armor yet.?’
Why did you show up already??
The ghost knight who appeared did nothing. It did not apply a wide-area debuff or use a powerful attack skill..
It's just floating in the air.
“Ooh, ooh……?!”
“Hey, hey, what is that??!”
But this isn't a game. It's a stark reality.
The sudden appearance of a huge monster in the sky caused the soldiers to panic..
‘shit!’
I gritted my teeth..
This is the difference between a war between humans and humans and a war between humans and monsters..
The primal fear of a gigantic, heteromorphic being.
The mere appearance of a boss monster causes soldiers to become frightened, and the efficiency of the front line plummets..
And it's not just humans who are scared..
Hee hee hee hee-!
The horses could not overcome their fear and began to go crazy. He couldn't stand the morale emitted by the boss-level monster..
The Jupiter Party's war horses, who were engaged in guerrilla operations outside the castle walls, were no exception..
The horses ran wild, and Jupiter, who was just preparing for his next lightning spell, lost his balance and fell out of the saddle..
“Oh my, damn it……?!”
Crunchy soup!
Jupiter fell from his horse and fell to the ground..
“Ahh?!”
“Wow!”
The rest of Jupiter's party members were the same. Everyone groaned as they fell from the wildly galloping horse..
“Ugh, ugh……?”
Jupiter was unable to come to his senses as he fell from his horse and hit the ground with his head..
After falling down and struggling to get up, he soon lost consciousness and fell down..
Ahhh!
Meanwhile, the Living Armorers who had escaped the loose kill zone were running like crazy..
To kill the living humans in front of us.
