Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 338
◈ 338. [STAGE 14] Predicament
The location I told Mason was outside the west gate, behind the gravestone at the grave site. I lied and said there was a passage to the Lake Kingdom here..
First of all, there are few people so citizens don't get swept away by these guys for no reason. It's a unique place and it's a place I visit often..
“Hmm, there was a hidden passage behind the tombstone.…….”
It was a blatant lie, but I still pretended to be hypnotized and spoke as shamelessly as possible. Mason was somehow fooled..
The special task force deputy standing next to Mason whispered quietly..
“Sleep extract hypnotics directly interfere with the mind. It's an item that can even destroy the mental barrier of the Ivory Tower Archmage, so there's no way the prince can resist it. I think it's definitely true.”
“Still, something feels off... … First, I will go scout the passage alone..”
As he walked out, Mason gestured at me..
“Thoroughly monitor the prince.”
Mason left the room.,
I quickly turned my eyes to look at the remaining special forces members in the room. Just you in the room. There is one guy standing on each wall..
In the room, there is me tied up, Godhand who is down on the floor and subdued, and Burnout..
I made eye contact with God Hand. Godhand, who was groaning in pain, made a slight pout as soon as our eyes met..
‘body bag.’
indeed.
The current shadow unit consists of three members. Metal Master Godhand, Blast Archer Burnout, and Telekinesis Master Body Bag..
God Hand and Burnout have been caught, but Body Bag is not here... … That means they haven't been caught and are watching the situation from the outside..
‘There is a chance.’
After taking a deep breath, I waited for some time to pass. Until Mason leaves the house and gets far enough away..
10After about a minute, I thought that this was enough and raised my head..
Okay, let's get started..
“Hey, I can't just let you off the hook.?”
I whined as I looked around at the special forces watching me..
“It's so tight that the prince's arm hurts. Without this, I think it would be more convenient because it would be possible to use horsepower..”
In fact, this was what he said to God Hand. Please just take care of this trap..
The special forces looked at each other in a bit of confusion..
“Commander. It looks like the hostage is about to wake up from the hypnotic drug..”
“For now, let me cover my eyes again..”
Mason's lieutenant... … Their commander picked up the bread bag and came over to put it back on me. I frowned..
“Hey, are you trying to put that on me now? Are you confident you can take care of it later? I remembered your face? huh?”
“…….”
The unit commander broke into a cold sweat, but without hesitation, he approached me again..
Right before he put the bread bag on my head, I screamed..
“It's now-!”
“?!”
Then I heard something flying outside.,
Kuwagwanggwang!
One wall was completely destroyed, with huge pieces of debris digging inside..
They were the remains of a building thrown by a body bag with telekinetic power from outside. It's an abandoned village, so it looks like there's a lot of stuff like that rolling around..
The remains of the collapsed wall crushed one of the special forces officers standing there..
“Wow!”
“what?!”
“It's an enemy attack!”
The special forces members were confused and their eyes were focused in that direction..
During this confusion, Burnout quietly stood up from his seat, placed his hand on the gag, and immediately removed it.-
“Wow!”
……It spewed fire from its mouth..
No, was this the reason I always had my mouth covered?.
“Wow!”
The commander of the unit, engulfed in flames, screamed and rolled on the floor, and the room caught fire..
Even if they are members of a special task force, there is bound to be chaos when the building is bombed with rubble outside and someone is spewing fire from their mouth inside..
At the same time, Godhand stood up and transformed his arm into a blade..
Both of his hands are prosthetics made of metal... … And Godhand is a metal master..
It was as if he had an emergency weapon in his hand from the beginning..
“majesty!”
Godhand ran towards me and lightly swung the sword in his hand..
Well done!
In an instant, my binding was cut off, and as the magical power seal effect on the binding disappeared, magical power returned to my body..
“Ah, this cool and heavy feeling. Long time no see.”
I muttered and got up from my seat..
“A long time of humiliation and persecution... … It was a car I was sick of. thanks! God Hand.”
I glared at the two special forces who tried to rush in late..
“you two there!”
Their eyes met mine..
When our eyes meet?
[[Mystical Eye of Command] The activation conditions are met.!
“High jump in place 10 times-!”
flashing!
[Command Difficulty: Easy]
[Compares the user's intelligence stats with the target's magic stats.]
[Determine your success rate. The saving throw begins.…….]
ring!
[Judgment complete!]
>Success: 2 bodies
[Executes mandatory orders.]
a spectacular success!
The two agents immediately and eagerly began high jumping in place..
And before the tenth count was completed, God Hand and Body Bag suddenly rushed in and struck the two men's jaws..
I growled as I kicked the bodies of the two guys lying on the floor with my toe..
“Didn't you learn that if you get the last number wrong you have to start over again, you bastards? huh?”
After struggling, I leaned forward with a pounding headache. Ugh!
“Ugh, my nose is bleeding.…….”
But this is not the time to make a fuss about something like this. I quickly wiped away the nosebleed with the back of my hand..
At that time, an elf with chubby cheeks rolled in from the outside through the collapsed wall. It was a body bag that blew away debris from outside..
“Sorry for being late.!”
“Thanks to you, I survived, body bag!”
“majesty! be careful! There are more agents out there... … Wow!”
patter!
Before Body Bag could finish speaking, arrows rained down through the collapsed wall..
The guys outside the building were shooting crossbows at us without mercy. These crazy bastards!
Godhand, who led me behind cover, ground his teeth..
“There are a lot of them! We killed four, so there are ten left.!”
Footsteps rushing towards the closed door could be heard. I gritted my teeth. completely surrounded!
‘The means to escape?’
God Hand and Burnout are injured. The body bag needs some time to cool down due to just using telekinesis..
And I… … I was already in so much pain, but I used so much magical power that my condition was terrible..
My head hurts so much that it's hard to keep my eyes open. Consciousness is blurred, as if it is about to evaporate.
- Bro, you’re really amazing. How did you break this??
Images I don't want to remember,
- Mom will always be by your side.
It comes to mind randomly and fills my head..
Crackling!
Gritting my teeth, I tried to come to my senses. Get your bearings, classics fanatic! Shouldn’t you have done some exercise, Ash Kim?!
‘Things are messed up, but it's still okay!’
Still, there are some useful items in the inventory. I gasped and put my hand into my pocket.…….
Beep beep.
[Proof of current player's existence is unclear..]
[System is unusable.]
“……?”
No, what is this again? Fuck? Why is this happening all of a sudden??
A bright red message window appeared in front of me and printed out a message like that. What is proof of existence??
I wonder if the inventory is a system function, but no matter how much I tried, my hands only went through the empty inside pockets and I couldn't open the inventory..
Damn it! This is why you should carry cash, not cards.!
patter!
“majesty! Pfft!”
A barrage of arrows rained down through the collapsed wall, and one arrow hit the back and shoulder of the God Hand that surrounded me..
Body Bag desperately counterattacks with telekinesis, and Burnout fires back with a stolen crossbow even though his mouth is burned..
Everyone is trying hard, but the difference in numbers and firepower is clear..
A strong pounding sound began to come from the door of the room that was blocked by an obstacle. Now that door opens and the enemies rush in.…….
It was then.
“uh?”
“What are you… … Wow?!”
“Enemy reinforcements - ugh.!”
Ujikkeun! Kwasik!
A dull bursting sound was heard outside the door, and the special forces who were trying to enter the room became quiet..
We looked there curiously. what?
Took bang-!
The next moment, the door shattered and opened.,
“lord!”
With the force of a tank, the knight in the tin helmet rushed inside..
“Are you all right, my lord?!”
“lucas!”
The four of us' faces brightened at the appearance of the rescue army..
“It's Lucas after all! You came to save me!”
Then Lucas shyly scratched the back of the can..
“No, I am at my limit now.…….”
Lucas's chest, visible through a gap in his armor, is soaked in blood with a flimsy bandage..
And injuries that seemed to have just occurred were left all over my body. The wooden sword in his hand was broken in half..
“I hit three guys' heads on the way in, but that's it..”
Lucas calmly told me about his condition..
“Each and every enemy is strong. I don't think it'll be hard to deal with anymore.”
“…….”
“Moreover, all the outside security forces are coming this way. And, Mason must have noticed something wrong and is running towards us..”
I gritted my teeth gently..
If Lucas says this, is it really true that there is no other way?…….
At that time, Lucas picked something up from the floor and said.
“……But my lord. I have a way.”
that… … It was the envelope they were trying to put on my head..
Holding the envelope in his hand, Lucas said softly.
“Will you trust me and leave it to me??”
Is it an illusion??
It's hard to see because it's covered with a tin helmet.…….
Lucas' eyes, visible through the gap in his helmet, appeared to be smiling..
***
“What kind of fuss is this??”
A moment later, Mason returned in a huff and growled at his subordinates..
“I told you to handle it as quietly as possible no matter what happens. If you make a fuss like this, Crossroads' troops might come.!”
The special task force member who was on guard reported.
“Knights and wizards attacked from outside one by one, trying to escape the prince..”
“what happened?”
“Four people guarding the room died, and three people guarding the outside were seriously injured. The unit commander also died..”
Among the neatly laid out corpses, I could see the special task force commander lying charred and dead..
Since he was in charge of the armed forces, he was a friend who had some brains in the first team of the special task force where all he had was muscle and brain... … . The agent continued to explain to Mason, who clicked his tongue..
“As you can see, one wall of the hideout has completely collapsed and can no longer function properly.…….”
“Nothing like that, you idiot! What about the prince?!”
As Mason scolded, the agent pointed to the inside of the room..
“It's inside.”
“what?”
“Except for the prince, everyone else ran away. After confirming that the prince was still there, we stopped chasing them further.…….”
Not understanding, Mason looked inside the room..
It was true. Ash was the same..
He was tied to a chair, his body stretched out, and he sat quietly with an envelope on his head..
The agent added:.
“I guess they couldn't take him out because he couldn't move because he was under hypnosis.?”
“…….”
Mason's eyes narrowed as he looked at Ash..
“……for a moment.”
“yes?”
“Prince, I don’t think you’ve grown any taller.?”
Mason clenched his fists..
“I checked?”
“yes? What?”
“Have you checked your face?.”
“Only the unit commander and above have the authority to approach His Highness the Prince.…….”
Mason gritted his teeth and walked towards Ash, leaving behind the agent who was making loud noises..
slap!
Ash takes off the bag on his head.-
Through the disheveled blonde hair, I could see smiling blue eyes..
“Hi Mason.”
It wasn't Ash..
It was Lucas.
Ash and Lucas exchanged clothes and armor, and exchanged envelopes and helmets, and Ash escaped, leaving Lucas behind as a double..
“……haha.”
Mason, who was laughing helplessly, raised his fist upward and,
Wow-!
He swung wildly, hitting the agent next to him..
Craddangtang! Kwasik!
The agent fell like a doll whose strings were cut and was thrown against the wall and could no longer move..
“I can't believe I was fooled by such a lame trick.…….”
Mason glanced sideways at the dead agent with his face sunken and sighed..
“Is this a side effect of the beast transformation serum? I can't control my anger..”
Heebeondeok turned his murderous gaze towards Lucas, and Mason showed his beast-like fangs..
“I guess it's because I have the confidence to handle this anger, young master.?”
Lucas just smiled without answering..
Mason's fist fell with a loud noise on the knight's face..
