Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 394
◈ 394. [[Evil Side] Farm
Lake Kingdom Dungeon Area 10. 'Farm’.
This vast land suddenly spread out in the center of the city was lined with fruit trees planted at knife-like intervals..
On one side there is a cattle shed and on the other side there are rice fields and fields.…….
A top-class farm exclusively for the royal family, which originally supplied food to the royal castle..
This facility, covered with clean glass walls, uses magic to maintain the optimal temperature and lighting for the growth of plants..
Even now, with the kingdom destroyed and covered in darkness and monsters, this place still works..
By the will of the owner who currently occupies this farm.
Rumbling again.
The terrace of the main farm house, overlooking this large and beautiful farm..
Red liquor fell with a clear sound into a wine glass placed on an outdoor table..
《Do you know the difference between fermentation and putrefaction??》
The large man, who poured half of the alcohol into his glass, slowly set the bottle upright and opened his mouth. A deep voice came out of his mouth..
《The principles of both are the same. Other than that, bacteria proliferate and, to put it simply, ‘rot’. But the results are different. If it rots like that and the taste and aroma deepens, it is called fermentation, and if it gives off a bad smell and toxicity, it is called putrefaction..》
The man grabbed the glass and swung it around. The red liquor swirled around the inside of the glass as if it was about to overflow..
《It is equally rotten, but if it is beneficial to humans, it is fermentation; if not, it is corruption. Isn’t this a very convenient standard??》
《…….》
《Just like this wine, corruption has a flavor, a time for harvest, and a secret to ripening. Humans do not know the true taste and do not want to know it..》
The man slowly raised the glass and examined the red liquid in the light of the farm..
《So, I tried to enlighten people with the aesthetics of my corruption. Unable to accept my ideas, humans condemned me as a monster..》
The man laughed.
《Oh my goodness! When they did what they wanted, they called me a great doctor, but when I did what I wanted, they treated me like a plague monster. It's truly arbitrary. I have always studied decay consistently..》
《…….》
《So, just as people wanted, I became a monster. Using my own body as a seedbed, I planted all the corruption I had studied so far into my body... … I have become the embodiment of plague.》
gulp-
The man drank his glass..
After swallowing all the red liquor in the glass, the man put down the glass with a satisfied exclamation. And I looked across the table.
《This was a long story. Why don't you lift it? This is the alcohol brewed directly at our farm. It tastes really good..》
《…….》
《It's a shame to drink the liquor brewed by the master of the plague. Or did you lose your appetite after seeing my bare face? Well, I need to understand either way..》
The man wiped his mouth and picked up the mask that was lying next to the table. It was a white crow mask..
The man wore a crow mask and a black fedora on top of it..
4th place nightmare corps commander.
Lord of the Plague Legion - Raven sat down and looked across..
《So, the business that came today is?》
《…….》
《Since you keep saying nothing, I end up talking to myself..》
Sitting across from Raven was a frost giant..
For a frost giant, his physique was very small. It was slightly larger than an average human..
But this man is the commander of the Frost Giant Legion and the last king..
Among the monsters of hell below this lake, one of the most powerful was Hraim, the Frost King..
Hraim, who had been glaring at Raven without opening his mouth once, finally opened his heavy lips..
《I'm quitting.》
《What do you mean??》
《I will stop living as a dog in your plague army..》
After succinctly stating his business, Hraim pushed his chair and stood up. Raven tilted his head to the side..
《What I mean is, your wife and children who are being held hostage by our legion... … You can take this to mean throwing it away.?》
《……!》
Hraim turned around with his eyes rolling and growled fiercely..
《For hundreds of years, you have held my wife and children hostage and treated us frost giants like your servants..》
《I thought it was a good partnership..》
《This time, under your orders, we dispatched troops to capture the Succubus Queen. But the result was annihilation. Now the few warriors left in my race have been wasted in vain by your orders..》
《You make it sound like I killed your warriors..》
Raven sneered and shrugged her shoulders..
《I asked for your cooperation, and you accepted. The reason you were annihilated by the Succubus Queen was because your subordinates were weak..》
《…….》
《I lost all of my subordinates and was completely annihilated without being able to catch even the one remaining monster. Even the Frost Giant was in trouble..》
Due to the humiliation inflicted on him in front of him, a terrifying evil spirit emanated from Hraim's entire body..
Hraim, who seemed as if he was about to pull out the great sword on his back and attack Raven, eventually let out a long breath and lost his morale..
《As of this time, the Frost Giant Legion ends its master-servant relationship with the Plague Legion..》
Hraim turned around and started walking away..
《Those held hostage, do whatever you want. Either kill or live. It's not our business anymore..》
《You are merciless, Frost King. Are you planning on abandoning your wife and children?.》
《I don't think this is a story for you, who held the Frost King's wife and children hostage for hundreds of years and never let them go no matter how much she begged and begged..》
Hraim walked with long strides and left the mansion in the center of the farm. No, he was trying to get away.
stumble.
《……?》
Visibility suddenly became low.
Hraim, who was puzzled, soon realized that he was kneeling on the floor. His legs gave out and he collapsed..
《what……?》
I feel sick to my stomach and feel dizzy before my eyes..
Hraim belatedly realized that blood was pouring from his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth..
He gnashed his teeth as he collapsed, bleeding miserably from every hole in his body..
《I didn't even drink the alcohol you offered me, so what is this?…….》
《You sound stupid..》
Raven slowly approached and stood in front of Hraim, tapping the mask she was wearing with her fingertips..
《If you were wary of my power, you shouldn't have even breathed in front of me..》
《yes… … bloke…….》
《Hasn't it been hundreds of years since you last met me face to face? Did you believe that I didn't plant a plague in your body all this time??》
I lower my waist in front of Hraim, whose whole body is shaking.,
《There is no need to worry. Frost King.》
Raven laughed dully, with a clear mockery in her voice..
《All you have to do is go back to hell, where your wife and children await you first..》
《this… … Disgusting and dirty… … The plague monster…….》
Hraim glared at Raven and cursed her until the end..
《Just wait and see. The power of frost... … I forgive you... … won't…….》
Those were the last words of Frost King Hraim..
The frost giant fell to the ground, his entire body frozen..
Raven infiltrated his body with paralyzing poison, so he didn't die, but now he's captured alive..
And if you are captured alive by the Lord of Plague, there is only one outcome..
《A new, high-quality ‘field’ for new pestilences to grow..》
It becomes part of the ‘farm’ that sows, grows, and harvests the seeds of the plague..
《A plague grown from the body of a frost giant king. There's sure to be a rotten flavor of great flavor..》
Raven tasted the Frost King's mighty body. I was already looking forward to seeing what new plague would be born..
Taaak!
Raven snapped her fingers in the air.,
Caw, caw…….
Hundreds of crows gathered around, grabbed the Frost King's body with their claws, and began to carry it away..
《I have used the Frost Giant Legion well as limbs for a long time, but they are now escaping from my arms... … Which corps should I recruit next?.》
Raven clicked her tongue..
The Plague Legion does not have any ‘troops’ under its command..
Flies and crows, rats and bugs - they are living members of the plague and dominate these vectors, but there are no subordinate entities that move with reason and consciousness..
Because just being by his side for a long period of time becomes addictive, and no one could last long by Raven's side..
One Man Plague).
He is a legion alone and a plague alone. That's Raven, the master of plague.
That is why the Plague Corps always suffered from a manpower shortage. Even if Raven herself created an alter ego and struggled, the limits were clear..
Therefore, Raven always operated by forming alliances with other legions and recruiting them as subordinates..
However, the werewolf army and the dream horse army that had formed an alliance were annihilated. Even the frost giant legions that had been his subordinates for a long time fell away.…….
《Both the werewolf remnants and the frost giant remnants will be used as 'fields' for the new plague.…….》
Raven clicked her tongue..
《In fact, the most anticipated legion of dream demons has yet to be captured..》
What form will the plague cultivated in the body of the spiritual dream demon take?.
As a researcher and seeker, Raven was something I was always curious about..
However, the dream demon army was arbitrarily annihilated by the human players... … Salome, the only remaining sample, was frequently failing to be secured..
Several small legions under his command were dispatched to capture Salome, who was left alone, but the succubus skillfully escaped each time..
This time, we sent an army of frost giants, but the frost giants were annihilated..
《As a monster, your army cannot be revived anyway, Salome..》
Raven muttered lowly as she headed inside the farm..
《So, wouldn’t it be better if it were used as a foundation for my research??》
That's what a friend was to Raven anyway..
Weak beings that are poisoned and will die if left nearby for too long..
In that case, wouldn't it be better to use it as a field to conceive new plagues?.
If he is reborn as a plague like never before and inhabits Raven's body - they will be able to live together for eternity..
Raven truly thought this was a lasting camaraderie..
After moving Frost King Hraim's body to an appropriate location, Raven sowed the seeds of corruption in the frost giant's body..
Even a hum came out from under his crow mask, as if he was truly happy..
After completing all the work, Raven wiped her hands with a reverential gesture and headed to the warehouse on one side of the farm..
《The day a new plague was sown in the body of the Frost King... … I can't help but have a drink at this monumental moment..》
Although he was the master of the plague that rotted the world with his power of corruption,.
He was truly an American drinker when it came to alcohol..
He kept only the fruits and grains cleanly without using the power of corruption, and it was his pleasure to spend time and effort fermenting, maturing, and drinking them..
《There was some peach that had been harvested just in time. It would be special if you drink it with the peach wine you made last year..》
When Raven opened the warehouse door, excited for the little pleasure that would end the day like that.-
《……?》
Raven noticed something was wrong..
There was no.
The deepest place in the fruit warehouse. His precious collection of only the rarest premium fruits - was completely gone..
《What, what……?》
Raven let out a perplexed groan as she looked at the empty cupboard..
Peach that grows by eating magic power, Seondo (仙桃)).
Among these islands, Peninsula is said to be open only once every 3,000 years. The peach, said to be rarer than any other elixir, had disappeared without a trace..
That wasn't all.
In addition, the rare magical fruits that Raven has been harvesting with great difficulty over many years are kept in the best condition by applying dozens of preservation magics, and all of the things that were just looked at because they were too bad to eat or drink.-
does not exist.
I was completely robbed.
《how…….》
Raven's shoulders were shaking with passion..
《What kind of crazy person would dare to sneak into the deepest part of this plague farm and steal?……!》
There were many thieves on the farm. Because most of the monsters in the Lake Kingdom are greedy,.
However, this was the first time that I had carefully selected and stolen such valuable special items. This was the first time I felt this much anger since I was resurrected here in the Lake Kingdom..
Raven's body boiled with poison as she was unable to control the power of corruption..
All the other fruits and grains piled up in the warehouse rotted..
《I will definitely kill you... … ! Even the guy who stole what was mine! Even the greedy one! entire!》
Raven roared, her voice full of anger and grief..
《I'm going to find them all and kill them all.-!》

10The way to leave the area and enter area 9.
Mason is at the forefront, scouting, and Salome is at the last row, observing the surroundings. and i,
crunchy.
I am eating the fruit that Salome found yesterday..
It's all about making a living, so you have to do it while eating. Mason and Salome don't seem to need much supplies, but I need to eat and sleep to be able to move..
In particular, starting today, we are entering District 9..
Unlike District 10, which exudes a calm atmosphere as the final district, District 9 is a living hell of chaos. The battle will begin in earnest, so supply is important..
crunchy!
I took a bite of a peach and opened my eyes wide..
“Wow, what is this peach? It's so delicious.”
《Isn't it delicious? Isn't it delicious? Hehehe. I heard you had a hard time sneaking up on me..》
Salome was proud from behind..
But these are not empty words; they are truly delicious. Slightly tastier than canned peaches sold on Earth.?
No, the fruits of the Earth are amazing fruits that have been bred and improved by leading scholars..
It's a huge compliment that the fruits in this fantasy world are tastier than those on Earth.?
‘Is it because of my mood? I feel like my body is full of magic..’
After finishing one cleanly, my whole body feels energized. I looked at Salome and asked.
“Are there a lot of fruits left??”
《huh! I brought a lot. Don’t worry if you eat it all! I just need to go to the farm and get the frost.!》
Stealing the crops that others worked hard to cultivate is wrong, but…….
Well, from what I heard, it seems that this is a fruit that one of the monster commanders grew for me to eat. There is no need to feel remorse..
“okay. Please. It's delicious.”
《Hehe, yes! Just leave it to me!》
Salome raised her sassy nose and shouted triumphantly.
《For you, I will frost that farm until it becomes empty.!》
I don't know who the owner of the farm is..
I just hope you don't get too stressed out by our frost.…….

And when we arrived at the place connecting District 10 and District 9 - 'Daegyo (大橋)'.
“……?!”
As we tried to enter the wide bridge, someone blocked us..
