Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 315
◈ 315. [Side Story] 3rd job change (2)
Is there anything like that in the world?.
Organizing things is usually more troublesome than doing them..
“When are you going to put this all away and go home??”
Evangeline sighed as she inspected the field of troll corpses spread out to the south of the forward base..
A monster's body is an expensive body..
It is also Crossroads’ main source of income..
First, collect magic stones, which are the most important resource, and if there are more useful materials, separate and collect them separately..
In the case of trolls, bodily fluids.
It is useful because it is used as a potion ingredient. The price is quite expensive too.
Anyway, all of the soldiers are deployed to clean up the battlefield - sorting out monster bodies..
me? I turn my back and watch.
Evangeline is pushing the troll king's body to one side while making an 'Ugh-' sound..
The body of the troll king, which collapsed due to the collapse of its regenerative power, was huge, and the process of putting it in one place to be incinerated was a series of hardships..
“No matter how much I clean it, there is no end, panting..”
Evangeline stuck out her tongue and panted like a puppy..
I laughed out loud when I saw that..
“If you work hard, it will be over soon.”
“I think it will be over faster if you help me too.?”
“Uh huh. How could a commander do something like this?.”
“kid! On the battlefield, he often appears on the front lines.!”
Hehehe. Originally, one of the commander's powers was self-interest..
Actually, I tried to help, but the soldiers desperately tried to stop me. They say that if I do something like this, they feel more uncomfortable or something..
As a commander, I feel like I don't have any sense because I can't tell the difference between what's important and what's not, so I'm just staying back..
“The troll king. What would it have been like to save him and subdue him??”
Evangeline asked, wiping the sweat from her forehead..
“I think I would have been able to obtain infinite potion ingredients if I had kept him alive..”
“There's no need to take extra risks just to get some potions..”
Even if captured alive, where will they be kept, and there is no guarantee that they will be able to detain him in complete safety?.
If you can kill, it's better to kill..
Fortunately, everything worked out as planned and I was able to get rid of it..
‘I was preparing [Be Mine!] in case I couldn't kill it..’
During Stage 5, just like the combo that defeated the vampire lord Celendion,.
When Junior uses [Elemental Deconstruction] to reduce the enemy's magic stat to negative, I use skill 1 [Mystic Eyes of Command] and skill 2 [Be mine!] in succession..
It is definitely possible to turn the enemy's boss monster into your captured monster..
But I have never used it before.
The reason is the same as in Celendion.,
‘I can't control it.’
When an enemy is incorporated into an ally through various means of mind control.
The higher the enemy is, the more difficult it is to control, and if it becomes a boss-level monster, it can be seen as not listening to you at all..
To put it simply, this is a world where even human mercenaries rarely rebel and cause accidents..
It would be absurd to expect these monsters, who were born to hate humans, to quietly become my subordinates..
‘If there is a boss-level monster in the friendly camp, it will have a lot of negative effects..’
These guys are passive and radiate evil energy around them..
Every time we encounter one on the battlefield, the morale of the soldiers drops due to that guy's morale. Try letting these guys into the city. What will happen?.
Anyway, for this reason, there is no need to capture boss-level monsters..
It would be better to catch low-level mobs one by one. Surprisingly, loyalty increases quickly..
I didn't mention it until now, but I captured one miscellaneous mob in each of STAGE 11, 12, and 13..
All are being quietly stored in a dedicated sub-space. Why does it feel like Pokemon?.
“It's a shame. I think it would have been possible to make an infinite potion by tying up the Troll King and draining his blood..”
“Don't say scary things with a calm face.…….”
It's an attractive idea. As long as it could be run safely, it would have been possible to produce unlimited potions, just like making things in a factory..
But in the end, it's just a potion..
A variety of recovery methods are already available..
It's not that there is a lack of funds. I decided that keeping the boss monster alive for the sake of gaining some items was a low-return high-risk..
“Anyway, that enormous regenerative power was truly amazing.…….”
Evangeline rested her chin and made a m-sound..
“If you make equipment with the Troll King's magic core, will you be able to obtain that incredible regenerative power??”
“Ohh. It's okay. Shall I make it for you? troll leather armor.”
“Wow! no, I do not want! I absolutely hate it! Stop wearing monster armor.-!”
Evangeline took off her crane at the words I jokingly threw at her, and ran away crying in that direction, making a loud noise. Her armor has become disgusting…….
As I was looking towards Evangeline, who was moving away, Dusk Bringer came towards me. Why does he look tired?.
“You wage war in unusual ways, Ash..”
“Because the enemies are unusual. I too struggle to twist my body..”
Come to think of it, this was the Dragon Lady's first defense debut. Should I ask about your impressions?.
“How is it worth going to war with monsters??”
“Umm… … I'll admit that I underestimated them..”
Dusk Bringer scratched the back of his head sheepishly..
“Neither the dungeon deep in the lake nor the hordes of monsters that invade this place are ordinary threats. Even if it were my country's entire army stationed here, it would not have been able to avoid difficulties..”
That's true.
When dealing with them, what is needed is not only the size and strength of the army, but also the ability to adapt to their unusual abilities..
‘If you don't know, you should be right!' There are a lot of bizarre gimmicks that come out out of nowhere..
No matter which army you bring, you will have a hard time..
I am somehow leading with my experience..
Dusk Bringer smiled kindly, stretched out his small hand, and patted my head..
“You have endured well, Third Prince. I'll praise you.”
“It's not me who endured it..”
Without bothering to remove his hand, I looked at the soldiers in the southern fields..
“The people of this land endured..”
I just brought the experience of strategy.
In the end, it is a battle line defended with people's death, sacrifice, blood, sweat and tears..
And in the future too.
With death, sacrifice, blood, sweat and tears, we will have to build the wall..
“By the way, your subordinates are definitely not ordinary..”
As I was thinking about the people who died while protecting this place, Dusk Bringer patted my back with a cheerful voice..
“The wizard's magic was amazing, and the movements and proficiency of the two knights were also extraordinary. I don't think I've figured out all the numbers yet..”
Dusk Bringer glanced toward the wall..
“And, that sniper's 'eyes'’…….”
On top of the castle wall was Damian organizing the horse guns..
When our eyes met, Damien, who was confused, waved his hand awkwardly. I laughed and waved my hand..
Dusk Bringer shook his head at us..
“I thought his skill at inserting magic bullets was extraordinary, but I can't tell you how surprised I was the moment our eyes met. I've never seen anything like that. Where on earth did you pick up something like that??”
“Rather than picking it up, he rolled towards me on his own..”
“Hmm, indeed.”
Squinting its large amber dragon's eye, Dusk Bringer stared at me intently..
“Above all, you. ash.”
“yes?”
“You are the most amazing. How can you come up with such a plan on the spot??”
“Ah, haha…….”
I can't say that because I was screwed 742 times before coming here..
“Maybe I was born with it. I'm a little better.”
Here, like Ash Kim, he boldly swoops in.!
Then, Dusk Bringer looked at me with wide eyes as if in bewilderment, and soon burst into laughter..
“Anyway, your warriors are of a higher standard than I thought. Hmm, I think it would have been quite fun if we had had a 5v5 war as originally promised..”
“We'll have a friendly match later.?”
Shoo, shoo, he playfully shook his body in front of Dusk Bringer. Dusk Bringer grinned like a rascal, showing his pointy teeth..
“It's a friendly match... … I guess it can help each other improve, but we can't fight sincerely if we don't put something on the line..”
“Are you still seeking control of Crossroads??”
“then. Am I not a woman who inherited the blood of the evil dragon? I'm just waiting for an opportunity next to you..”
Then go over there and stand in line first. The heir to the Cross family is also trying to take control of Crossroads from me..
While we were chatting, I saw Lucas and the soldiers coming back from the southern field..
It looks like the long process of clearing up the corpses is almost over. The corpses of monsters that had been harvested were seen gathered together and poured with oil..
“I have a report for you, my lord. Disposal of the monster's body is almost complete..”
Lucas, who handed me a report listing the quantity of recovered items, added:.
“I also recovered my long sword and Evangeline's spear blade that I had stabbed at the troll king.…….”
“Be safe?”
“no. I don't think I can use it anymore.”
Lucas smiled bitterly and showed the long sword and spear blade he had recovered..
It's not broken, cracked, melted or a mess. It was a luxury product that Kelly Bay poured her heart and soul into creating, but here it is..
“It was the first weapon my master made for me.…….”
“Don't be too discouraged. If you leave it to Kelly Bay, Seong-eun will be able to recover it to some extent..”
It's an RPG rule that if you hand over damaged equipment to a blacksmith, a certain percentage of the materials will be returned..
Since silver is a precious material, we should try to recover it as much as possible..
“You're going to get a new weapon this time, right?.”
Lucas' exclusive equipment, the [Granted Sword], will be restored soon..
It will be of great help to you as it is a final-level weapon with enormous power..
Now that all the armor, auxiliary equipment, and specializations are completed, Lucas is completed with the CARRY role, which is the role that leads to victory in this game..
“…….”
[When the story of [the sword given to me] came out, Lucas' face hardened again..
My face, which had been smiling brightly, slowly hardened..
No, why has it been like this since before? Did you really lose it? No, right? huh?
“Well, then I’m going to finish clearing the battlefield.!”
“Yay! Where! Lucas! hey!”
Lucas quickly turned around and ran away. No, I'm really worried.!
It's your exclusive item.-?!
***
It is also a national rule to hold a victory banquet on victory night..
That night, another large banquet was held in the central square..
It was late fall and the weather was chilly. Soldiers wrapped themselves in blankets, drinking and eating meat around bonfires lit in various places..
‘From the next defense game, we will have to hold the victory banquet indoors..’
Since there are no indoor facilities that can accommodate this many people, each person will have to have food delivered to their accommodation and eat separately..
Well, it's still better than getting hurt while drinking outside in the harsh winter..
After hanging out at the banquet until midnight, I returned alone and entered the office of the lord's mansion..
“Wow tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
I have lost my appetite because of the alcohol I drank a little while ago. Wow.
These barbaric mercenaries offered me alcohol mixed with troll blood. Is it good for stamina or something?.
Well, since it is a raw material for potions, it helps regenerate stamina, so of course it will help in that regard as well. I will give it to you, but.
‘What do you do if it's good for your stamina?!’
I have nothing to write about! uh! Who are you kidding??!
Anyway, I'm the type of person who doesn't avoid recommended alcohol, so I drank it without thinking much, but the taste of this damn troll liquor is not bad..
Evangeline asked, ‘Will I grow taller if I drink this?!’ Telling the same nonsense, she secretly tasted a bite of the underage subject and then passed out from drunkenness..
Godhand and Lily, who were both heavily drunk, linked their arms and even made love shots, making fun of each other. Hey dirty couples.
I ran away after seeing Margerita drinking it like water next to me, saying that I didn't know about its strength but that it was definitely effective in relieving fatigue. I will escape this scene of madness.!
“Do you need to rinse your mouth?…….”
At that moment, a kettle was bubbling on the stove in the office. I quickly poured some warm tea and held it in my mouth. Phew, I guess I'll buy some.
I wake up a little. I sat at the desk in the office.
There was a reason why I came back first instead of attending the banquet until the end..
‘50level!’
I finally took a picture!
After opening the system window and checking the number '50' one more time, I stretched out my arms upward and celebrated like a striker who scored a goal. Yes!
‘Finally, my third job change.!’
In other words, the ultimate is finally unlocked.!
Hero characters have four skills. Passive, 1st skill, 2nd skill, ultimate.
In short, fighting without ultimate power is the same as having 25 percent of your power sealed away..
In addition, the ultimate is a skill that completes the character. In reality, it is as if more than 30% of the power has been sealed..
‘Let’s look at the pattern..’
All level 50 achievers, commonly known as ‘awakeners’, have a unique pattern somewhere on their body..
I looked into the small mirror on the desk in my office..
My awakening symbol is in the middle of my neck... … Appeared in the uvula area.
I lifted the [Traitor's Necklace] around my neck and looked at the pattern. There is an indiscernible geometric drawing engraved on it..
‘What's this. clockwork……?’
I still have burns from the previous tutorial, so I can't figure out his exact appearance..
What does it look like? It doesn't matter. I put the necklace back in place and covered the pattern, rubbing my hands and laughing..
“Now, let's check it out..”
please!
Book of Chronicles!
ultimate!
Please take note of just one thing.-!
I exclaimed, opening my character stats in the system window..
“Is your fraud skill up?-?!”
