Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 374
◈ 374. [STAGE 15] One-way street
[Goddess Blessing].
A defense buff that can be used by humans as a concept corresponding to the monster side's [Dark Event].
I thought about several options, and in the end, there were two options left..
- Goddess Blessing: Invincible Wall
> During this battle, the walls will not be destroyed.
- Goddess Blessing: One-way street
> During this battle, the enemy will only attack the southern wall..
There were many buffs that applied more directly to combat, but since the enemy was the enemy. I had to struggle between these two for tactical counters..
In the game, the goblin army's main means of siege was blowing up the castle walls using suicide bombers..
Therefore, I initially had the ‘invincible wall’ in mind. It was to make it difficult for the enemy to siege..
However, as the goblin army was advancing and I felt like I was being tactically outgunned by the enemy commander, I was inclined towards 'one-way traffic'..
I had already suffered great damage from the werewolf army's detour maneuver during Stage 10..
A Goblin God King who has destroyed numerous human castle walls with strategic tactics is sure to use much more complex tactics..
In addition to suicide bombers, they must have secured siege means..
And to be honest, I didn't have the confidence to counter his broad tactics, as he was more experienced than me..
In that case, let's limit the battlefield..
Let's concentrate our forces on the southern wall and crush them..
So, a day before the start of the defensive war, I activated [Gaddis Blessing: One-Way].
[The Goddess blesses your battlefield…….]
[During this battle, the enemy will only attack the southern wall..]
Our battlefield was limited to the southern wall..
‘Fight well, my heroes. my soldiers.’
Command of the external front was entrusted to Lucas. I instructed everyone carefully with tactics..
The battle on the walls has no choice but to be trusted. What I need to do right now…….
Chaeng!
Tskak-!
Defeat the Goblin God King in front of you as quickly as possible.!
Even though four of my captured monsters surrounded and attacked Kali-Alexandre, she was holding on without difficulty, brandishing her sword..
I also grabbed the dagger in my hand tightly and jumped into the chaos of the metal objects..
As I joined in, a low laugh burst out from within Kali-Alexandre's mask. I gritted my teeth and thrust out my dagger..
Just like this world has always been…….
must kill.
To survive.
***
Above the snow-covered fields,
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Kirik, Kirik-!
Screaming, the goblin army pours in..
“ready for battle-!”
Lucas, who drew his sword, repeated his command. Soldiers stood in front of their respective projectile weapons and loaded ammunition..
As Ash said, the greenskin wave did not make any diversionary maneuvers. I pushed in honestly and head on..
That's why I couldn't breathe.
2Fifteen thousand living creatures were flocking towards the castle walls, without any regard for their own safety..
There was a different sense of pressure than when I saw the same scene at the forward base..
The walls were lower back then and the troops were fewer, but there was a way to escape..
But now, this is also Bae Soo-jin..
This wall is the last line of defense. Once this place is breached, the goblins will move north, gather their compatriots, increase their power, and recreate the 'Great Goblin Invasion' of hundreds of years ago..
‘I'm going to turn around.’
Each time it was a defensive battle with the fate of royalties at stake, but this time there was a decisive difference from the previous one. Lucas clicked his tongue inside him..
‘I can't see them at a glance.’
many.
There are so many.
As so many of them spread out and poured out, the field of vision was almost overflowing..
I had to turn my head left and right to see the full size of them..
Quagwang! Kuwagwanggwang!
The line of goblins rushing in was caught in a minefield and exploded. In an instant, the lives of over 100 goblins were lost..
But it wasn't noticeable.
It felt like I was scooping up a handful of water from the beach. Still, the huge waves were crashing in, creating foam..
Kyaaaaa-!
Easily jumping over the shattered corpses of their compatriots, the next line of goblins rushed forward. Lucas shouted as they got within firing range..
“Fire! Each person only looks at his/her own direction and shoots.-!”
pop! Bubbling bubbling-!
Patter-patter!
The cannons and ballistas that had been firmly protecting the walls of Crossroads fired their own bullets..
The central gunners focused on intercepting the goblins gathered around the gray fortress, while the right and left gunners aimed and fired at the goblins flocking in front of their respective castle walls..
The goblins crossed the minefield and reached the kill zone..
It was a place where wooden fences were arranged in a chaotic manner, effectively blocking the path of monsters..
The first group of goblins who came here were all exhausted and fell asleep. The problem was the second group that came in next..
pop-!
Quaguagwang!
2Jhin was a goblin suicide bomber.
They slammed their bodies into the wooden fence without a moment of hesitation..
Originally, it was a place where monsters would create bottlenecks, slow down, and fall under friendly fire..
However, due to the successive explosions of the goblin suicide bombers, the fence shattered, caught fire, and collapsed..
“These crazy people…….”
Lucas muttered in embarrassment..
The suicide bombers got caught up in each other's explosions and even killed other goblins in the back line..
But nevertheless, the goal was achieved.
2By the time Jin was all burned to death in the explosion I caused, the kill zone was neutralized..
The goblins' third line broke through the crossfire battlefield, which should have lasted longer..
Shut up! Shut up! Compactly!
3Jin was a cavalry unit..
Goblins riding on mountain goats ran across the battlefield at lightning speed..
What role can cavalry play in a fight in front of a castle wall??
Is there any meaning in rushing towards the castle walls that are firmly guarded by mercenary troops??
I didn't know, but the goblin cavalry was rushing towards the castle wall like crazy..
He jumped over the dense barricades in one go, easily dodged the triggered mines, and ran toward the castle wall..
The panicked gunners quickly changed their aim and aimed at the cavalry..
However, the goblin cavalry was much faster than the existing goblins, and took time to aim and deal with it..
By the time most of the cavalry was annihilated by the firepower fired from the castle walls, the aiming lines of the cannons and ballistas had already become a mess..
And the last cavalry that finally broke through the fire net and reached the castle wall was-
Powok!
I crashed into the castle wall..
The goat and the goblin, their entire bodies crushed, collapsed to the floor..
The perplexed human soldiers moved the sights of their cannons and ballistas again..
The cavalry charge was reckless but effective..
A hole appeared in the fire net of the cannon and ballista, and the follow-up goblin units continued to charge through the thinned fire net without significant damage..
After that, four groups of goblins came running. This time it was a shield soldier..
No, is the distinction between 4th and 5th base meaningful??
Lucas, a little dizzy, closed his eyes for a moment..
How many goblins are lurking behind there??
It felt like water was pouring out, far exceeding the limit the dam could accommodate..
Although the leader was taken away, the main force had already come close to the castle walls..
“Artifact preparation-!”
Lucas shouted..
Lily, who would normally be in charge of the artifact, was not present. Instead, the head of the Alchemist Guild hurriedly received orders..
Gritting his teeth, Lucas stretched out his arms forward and shouted..
“Slowing force field artifact, activated! Next, the Ice Field Artifact is fully activated.!”
Wide-area slow and wide-area freeze artifacts were activated one after another..
The snow piled up beneath the slow-moving goblins' feet was frozen cold..
Due to extremely low mobility, the goblin army was suddenly bottlenecked, and shells and arrows fell on the heads of the piled up goblins..
However, the 4th group was a shield unit. They raised their shields large enough to cover their entire bodies and slowly resumed their advance, protecting even the allies in the back row..
“junior-!”
As Lucas shouted, Junior, who was preparing a spell with other wizard party members, threw the juice cup he was drinking out of the castle wall..
“Let's go, guys.!”
“yes sister!”
“yes sister!”
The young wizards' attributes are fire, wind, water, and earth, respectively..
Among them, the fire attribute wizard was the first to spread flames as wide as possible. Then the frozen ground melted and became soggy..
“Hmm-!”
And the remaining four wizards, including Junior, spread their own magic. Junior also used wind and water attributes..
Shoot ahhh!
Streams of water fall from the sky with a strong wind,
Kwasik! Quad Deuk!
The soil on the ground cracked and accepted the water stream..
The ground that had been frozen just moments ago suddenly turned into a swampy swamp..
The leader of the goblin soldiers got stuck in a quagmire and could not move..
bang!
Kwasik!
No matter how good a shield soldier is, he cannot withstand the continuous barrage of artillery fire. In the end, the goblins of the 4th camp gradually collapsed and were eventually wiped out..
However, the entire army advanced that much..
The corpses of goblin shield soldiers were lined up in a wide swamp created by magic..
The goblins in the rear row used the corpse as a stepping stone and advanced..
5The Jin consisted of a mixture of shield soldiers and archers. Protected by shield soldiers, goblin archers fired arrows at the castle wall..
Tuk!
patter!
It was a shot of terrible power, but the attack from those who had not even been able to attack before was definitely reaching the top of the castle wall..
Lucas gritted his teeth as he looked down at the goblin's arrow stuck at his feet..
‘……It's clear that these guys are running recklessly..’
The Goblin God King, the commander-in-chief, is trapped with Ash..
Obviously, they don't receive the God King's command, they just rush forward..
‘why… … The type of soldier that is exactly appropriate for the war situation is right there in front of you at that time.?’
As if everything had been calculated and arranged so that all you had to do was run in order.…….
‘no!’
Even if the Goblin God King had predicted everything and deployed his troops,.
Those commanding the troops would be the officers remaining on the scene..
In that case, if you just get rid of the officers, their command system will collapse, and eventually they won't be able to charge as efficiently as they do now..
“damian!”
Lucas shouted..
“We must snipe the officer troops! You know?”
“yes!”
Damian had already been sniping at the officers he had caught with his eyes..
All the emirs and Janissaries wearing fancy armor fell down in blood spraying from his sniping..
As the goblin army itself got closer, other snipers in Damian's party also began sniping, focusing mainly on officers..
taang-!
Damian, who had just knocked down Amir, a goblin who had just caught his eye, noticed something strange..
“……Hey Lucas..”
The two had become quite close in private, but now they were in a defensive war. Moreover, Lucas was serving as acting commander..
So Damian called Lucas by his honorific title..
Lucas winked as if telling him to speak, and Damian muttered hesitantly as if he didn't quite understand the situation..
“Goblin General... … So, wasn't there a total of ten Goblin Amirs??”
“okay. My lord confirmed this morning.”
“An entity with a unique pattern engraved on its face and wearing high-quality armor... … Right.”
“It's definitely true.”
“…….”
“What's wrong? Hurry up and report it.”
Damien responded slowly to Lucas' urging..
“……I just shot down the tenth goblin, Amir..”
“what? I said I did it all?”
“yes. I thought so…….”
Damian pointed to the other side of the battlefield..
“There's another one over there.”
“what?”
“There and there again…….”
Goblin officers with unique patterns painted on their faces and wearing high-quality armor..
“There are dozens more.”
“…….”
“As the prince said, if there are a total of ten goblin Amirs,…….”
Damien muttered with a pale face..
“Those guys... … What the heck?”
