I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 22
◈ 022. [STAGE 1] Main party
Ahhh-!
Living Armor has reached the moat..
While crossing the moat filled with holy water, they slowed down and had to be hit by a barrage of arrows from our side..
However, it is sturdy.
Fending off arrows with their whole bodies, they finally crossed the moat and reached the castle wall..
thud! thud! thud!
The leading Living Armorers began pounding on the gates harshly..
But the gates are thick and tightly locked..
Even if these guys were monsters, they were not something that could be penetrated without a siege weapon..
The Living Armor eventually gave up the siege to the castle gate and began climbing the castle wall..
Slap! Slap! Gradually!
The sight of the armored monsters clinging to the castle walls and climbing up was very... … It was horrible. It looks like a scene from a horror movie..
gulp. gulp.
Dry saliva continued to run down the throats of the soldiers standing at the edge of the castle wall and looking down..
“atmosphere.”
Dry saliva ran down my neck as we looked down together, but I tried to act calm on the outside..
“atmosphere!”
Various miscellaneous items such as stone and iron pieces remaining during reinforcement work were placed on the castle wall in advance..
The soldiers prepared to hurl these at the Living Armorers..
Living Armor almost crawled up the high castle wall..
Now we're close enough to see their eerie eyes flickering inside the helmet..
Only then did I command loudly..
“now! Drop it!”
“Drop it!”
“Drop it-!”
The soldiers all pushed the miscellaneous items over the castle wall..
Rumble…….
Craddangtangtang!
Living armor, beaten by heavy junk, fell to the floor together..
Many of them were shattered by the impact of falling to the floor, but the rest jumped up again unharmed. I stuck out my tongue..
“It's really damn sturdy.!”
All the miscellaneous things piled up on the castle walls were thrown away. Even though they were hit, they were still climbing up the castle wall again..
I really can't help it now. I raised my voice..
“Prepare for hand-to-hand combat!”
“yes! Prepare for hand-to-hand combat-!”
“Close combat standby, forward!”
About a hundred soldiers of the close combat team waiting behind them all pulled out blunt weapons from their waists..
The soldiers, who had been shooting cannons and ballistae and throwing miscellaneous items, stepped back for a moment..
After a short rest, we will join the close combat operation..
While the standby team for close combat and the existing soldiers were taking turns, I opened the system window..
‘party regroup.’
Jupiter's party was wiped out, and there were currently only four main party members, so reorganization was needed..
I opened the party window and added Jupiter from the sub-party to the main party..
[main party (5/5)]
- Lv.5 Ash (EX)
- Lv.27 Lucas (SSR)
- Lv.15 Damian (N)
- Lv.17 Lily(R)
- Lv.35 Jupiter (SR)
The main party is complete, and it’s tiring! Party synergy is activated with a notification sound..
[Active Party Synergy]
> (Commander 1) Battlefield SS: This party's morale does not decrease.
> (Wizard 2) Double Mage: Magic attack power of all party members increases by 20%.
A total of two synergies were activated..
‘so beautiful!’
I was delighted without even realizing it..
In particular, Double Mage is a truly great synergy. Magic attack power increases by 20%!
In the current situation where we have to rely on Jupiter's thunderbolt magic as soon as she recovers, there is no synergy as good as this..
‘But for now.’
I saw Living Armor climbing up the castle wall..
Lucas, holding his long sword in front of his chest, and the soldiers shaking and holding their blunt weapons tightly..
‘You have to block it with pure body, not magic..’
Although the soldiers were terrified, they carried out the defensive battle stably..
And the biggest reason why this was possible was because the type of battle was a long-distance artillery battle..
From now on, you have to fight by taking their attacks with your whole body, right in front of your nose..
‘Can the soldiers do it??’
I, who was worried about the anxious soldiers, quickly shook my head..
‘No, you have to do it..’
Every veteran is a new recruit at first.
Anyway, the stage continues after this. The invasion of monsters continues continuously..
To survive, all soldiers must become strong..
There is no choice but to move forward by bumping into each other and overcoming them..
“They are coming up-!”
When the Living Armorers crawled up to just below the castle wall, the soldiers pushed them back with long spears and sticks..
Hot! Suddenly!
But Living Armor easily grabbed them and broke them..
“Wow?!”
“This is crazy!”
The frightened soldiers stomped back..
The last resistance was easily neutralized, and the Living Armors appeared one by one on the castle walls..
Ugh…….
Ahhh!
The first one to climb onto the castle wall let out an eerie scream. Agitation spread among the soldiers..
and,
flashing-!
Lucas' single sword split that monster's helmet in half..
Libang Armor, split in half, swayed with red-hot sparks..
Lucas violently kicked the guy in the chest and pushed him out of the castle wall..
“I cut them down!”
Lucas shouted at the soldiers who were looking at him in surprise..
“All you have to do is stand there as best as you can and block them.!”
“Yeah, yep……!”
Lucas ran like he was flying up the castle wall, cutting down the Living Armor that was coming up like it was splitting tofu..
Tsukak! Tsukaaaak!
Every time Lucas' sword cut through metal, bright red sparks flew out. It seemed as if a flower was blooming from the tip of the sword..
I suddenly came to my senses while watching the brilliant performance of an SSR-level knight. I have to do my own thing too!
“Lily, activate the next artifact.!”
“yes!”
Lily quickly activated the artifact at my command..
The second of the repaired artifacts.
N-Grade Haste Artifact.
It is an artifact that casts a wide-area speed increase spell on allies. As expected from grade N, the effect and duration are short..
Movement speed and attack speed increase by 5% and last for 5 minutes..
But 5 percent is enough. 5 minutes is enough.
The buff applied during the most important first engagement boosts soldiers’ confidence..
As their bodies became lighter, the soldiers swung their blunt weapons and threw their shields more lightly..
“push away the monsters!”
“Drop it-!”
The climbing Living Armor and soldiers collided..
The hand-to-hand combat standby team, which had been resting for a while, held up much better than expected..
Although we couldn't defeat the Living Armor, we were able to form a battle line against them..
The attributes I wore in this battle were [Main Order], [Attack Totem], and [Defense Totem]].
It will be helpful in hand-to-hand combat, even if only in small ways..
While the soldiers were holding on without being pushed back, Lucas was busy running and swinging his sword..
Flash! flashing!
Every time the sword light flashed, the Living Armorers were cut down like straw bales..
A halo of light unique to skill use flashed from the tip of Lucas' sword. Lucas’s 1st skill is [Strike of Will]..
[[Strike of Will] is a stack-type skill that becomes stronger the more enemies you kill..
I wanted to give all the remaining Living Armor to Lucas, but I couldn't afford it..
‘I'm pushed.’
Lucas alone swept almost half of the walls, but he couldn't handle the whole thing..
The number of people crossing the castle walls gradually increased. The number of injured also increased..
“evil!”
“OMG!”
“If you get hurt, get back right away! Take turns!”
Every time an injured soldier came out, I deployed the existing mercenary team that was waiting in the back..
However, the existing mercury team was also exhausted during the mercury..
Although there were not many deaths, the number of injured quickly increased. I bit my lower lip gently..
“Prince, I want to return to the front again.…….”
Damian, who had been resting at my command, raised his crossbow again, but I raised my hand to block it..
This guy needs to work on his boss skills. Same goes for Jupiter.
‘What should I do??’
Is there a way to organize the remaining Living Armor while reducing damage to soldiers as much as possible?…….
It was then.
Grumbling!
Suddenly, a fire broke out, turning the Living Armorers who were climbing up the castle wall into ashes..
I looked there in surprise. Lily in her wheelchair with her hands out in front of her with a shocked look on her face.
“That's right, you could use magic.?!”
When I was shocked, Lily made a dumbfounded face..
“No, he was originally a fire mage.!”
“sorry. I just thought it was a friend shield..”
“You really didn't go too far.?!”
Living Armor continued to climb up the castle walls. Lily urgently spewed flames in all directions..
Ahhhhh!
Wow……!
The living armor on Lily's side of the castle melted in an instant..
Since they have high physical resistance but low magic resistance, fire magic was also very effective..
“Hehe, hehe…….”
Lily, whose magic power was suddenly depleted, gasped. It seemed like he couldn't withstand the enormous magical power consumption unique to a flame-type wizard..
I ran behind Lily and grabbed the handle on the back of the wheelchair..
“Well done, Lily! I'll promote you later.!”
“No, please make me retire.…….”
“I’ll give you a performance bonus as well! So, come on! Let's blow fire one more time!”
“I want him to retire! And I used up almost all my magic power.!”
“You can do it one more time! Come on, cheer up, let’s go!”
“Wow!!”
I dragged Lily, who was in tears, to her wheelchair and set her on fire. kills the effect!
20% due to party synergy, and 5% due to my [Attack Totem] attribute..
Lily's fire magic, which was strengthened by a total of 25%, did an excellent job of preventing the castle wall from being cut in half..
I poured the mana potion into Lily's mouth, which was full of taste..
“Cheer up, flamethrower! one more shot!”
“At least I want you to treat me like a human being.!”
As a result, the soldiers blocked it with their bodies, Lucas cut it with his sword, and Lily burned it with flames..
[Enemy Information - STAGE 1]
- Lv.25 Ghost Knight: 1
- Lv.5 Living Armor Assault Trooper: 3 (Kill Counts) : 1449)
the end is in sight.
“Die, you monster.!”
“Get the hell out of this castle!”
Soldiers surrounded Living Armor and attacked it with blunt weapons.,
“Now for real... … I can't drink anymore…….”
“It's the last time, the last time. now. Drink this all the way and fight!”
Lily was slurping magic potion out of her mouth and barely managed to roast one person with fire..
flashing!
The last one was cut cleanly in two by Lucas' sword strike..
“……finished.”
When the Living Armor could no longer be seen moving, the dazed soldiers cheered in unison..
“it's over! We stopped it!”
“Did it! I did it!”
I poured cold water on that happy atmosphere..
“It's not over yet!”
“yes, yes?”
“Don't relax! Because the last one is coming!”
I glared into space. The soldiers also turned their heads to follow my gaze..
Ugh…….
With the entire body of a huge ghost floating in the air. Fragments of the fallen Living Armor's armor gathered from all over the battlefield..
Slam! Clap!
Thousands of pieces of armor came together to form a massive, patchy armor..
From the gauntlets at the fingertips to the pauldrons on the shoulders. Breastplate on the chest. From the leg armor that covers the thighs and calves to the boots that cover the feet..
And finally, the helmet.
Clap-!
The completed giant armored monster let out a gloomy groan..
Ahhh……!
ghost knight.
A bright blue flame flickered in the eyes of this stage's boss monster..
thud-!
When the one floating in the air landed on the ground, the entire area shook as if there had been an earthquake. We all stumbled together..
I swallowed a curse as I tried to keep my balance by holding on to the wall next to me..
Where do you think that is the stage 1 boss?!
