Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 480
◈ 480. [STAGE 23] Play tag
The three Gorgon sisters have in common the ability to petrify and have strong bodies..
However, each specialty is slightly different..
First of all, Stheno (Σθενώ).
Boom! Took bang-!
As the name implies, it possesses tremendous power..
Steno took the lead and advanced, destroying the barriers and barricades widely placed on the plain..
The defense line that the humans had painstakingly set up was torn like pieces of paper in front of Stheno's powerful charging power..
Swirl!
The second, Euryale (Εὐρυάλη), flew with the ability to fly and took away all the fire that rained down on humans from the sky..
Cannons and arrows, magic artifacts... … Avoided, petrified, and nullified everyone..
3Among the sisters, Euryale had particularly strong magic resistance, so she spread her membrane wings and blocked all attacks from humans in the air..
Kiiiiing!
And the youngest, Medusa (Μέδουσα).
Among the three sisters, she possesses particularly strong magical power and magical eyes..
When Medusa opened her eyes, the snakes on her head also raised their evil eyes at the same time..
flashing!
Medusa's eyes and the snakes' eyes shone at the same time. With an eerie yellow flash, the magical eye of petrification swept over the area..
Not only did all the human attack methods that were pouring in turn into stones in the air.,
Blah blah, blah blah…….
Everything in the area turned to stone..
Soil, grass, trees and insects... … Everything that lived in the southern plains turned to stone and hardened..
All beings that came within Medusa's gaze were petrified without discrimination..
“Ugh?!”
“Mo, my body is stiff.……!”
“Save me……!”
The power of the devil's eye was so powerful that even the soldiers on the castle walls, still far away, became petrified victims one after another..
“Even though there is this much distance, I feel petrified……?!”
on the castle wall.
As dozens of soldiers were petrified and fell to the ground, a panicked Lucas gave an urgent order..
“Don't stare directly at them! Aim through a mirror provided in advance.!”
“Ha, but… … Only then can the aiming accuracy…….”
“Can not help it! Even if it means sacrificing accuracy, you shouldn't look at them directly.!”
The soldiers had no choice but to look away or use mirrors to estimate the distance, and poured crossfire on the three Gorgon sisters..
However, even if fired accurately, it was not possible to secure much stopping power..
As even the aiming became sloppy, the three Gorgon sisters began to approach the castle wall with greater ease..
“sir lucas!”
In no time, the Three Gorgon Sisters passed halfway across the southern plain, and the artillery commander, who was assessing the aiming line, shouted..
“They broke through the final stop line.-!”
“Is it already?…….”
Gritting his teeth, Lucas looked around at the soldiers..
It was much faster than expected, but there was nothing we could do..
“As instructed in advance!”
Lucas raised his hands and shouted as loud as he could..
“All troops, retreat.-!”
Ash... … I hope that this strategy ordered by my lord will work properly..

《huh?》
Medusa, who was rushing towards the Crossroads with her two older sisters at the forefront, suddenly noticed something strange..
《……what?》
The fire that was pouring down from the castle wall suddenly subsided..
That wasn't all.
The soldiers who were desperately shooting something in this direction from the top of the castle wall, and the soldiers who were trying to block this direction with weapons... … He was quickly disappearing..
Medusa hissed and frowned because she couldn't understand..
《Have you given up resistance??》
I had some suspicions that it might be a trap, but I thought with common sense and thought it couldn't be that..
The castle wall is the greatest and strongest weapon that mankind can use against monsters..
There is no way to sell a trap while giving up all the advantages, and even if such a shallow move is used, it is a very loss-making business for the human side..
《I don't know what the intention is, but either way is fine.…….》
Either you gave up resistance, or you made a foolish decision to give up the walls and try another tactic..
All these people who continue to resist like insects will be turned to stone and killed.……!
The three Gorgon sisters approached right in front of the castle wall. Now, with the flight of Euriale, Medusa, who was about to jump over the castle wall in one fell swoop, raised her eyes..
《huh……?》
Of all the things I saw today, there was the strangest sight there..
Squeak…….
was open.
The castle gate.
It was insincere and unsightly, as if you were to do whatever you wanted whether to come in here or not... … The slightly opened door made a squeak sound and widened the entrance..
Medusa couldn't understand..
Isn’t this the last line of defense to protect royalties? Why are you doing this??
‘something is strange.’
wow!
Medusa pulled the leashes of her two older sisters. Stheno and Euryale immediately stopped in their tracks..
The three Gorgon sisters, who were rushing forward without hesitation, came to a complete stop in front of the open castle gate..
《…….》
The three Gorgon sisters had been confined to their hideout, so they had no idea of the situation outside..
It is also true that the number of Nightmare Corps commanders killed on this front is as high as five..
It is also said that the commander here has been crushing monsters with all kinds of evil tactics..
I didn't know anything. But at this moment, Medusa had an intuition.
‘has something in it.’
Even giving up the walls and opening the gates, they are plotting something outrageous.……!
《…….》
but.
Does that mean I won't go in??
《……hot. No way.》
It was these three Gorgon sisters who, both during their lifetime and after their death, had been killing humans who tried to hunt them with rocks for a long time..
《I'll jump into your shallow tricks……!》
No matter what these humans are planning, I hope that they will make her and her sisters happy for a little while - Medusa opened the south gate wide..
Kugugugugung Palace……!
And inside the open door,
《……?》
there were no traps.
Medusa entered in a daze, led by her two older sisters..
this was a city.
There are many old buildings, new buildings, and expanded buildings... … A city on the border, just beginning its development..
But that's it.
Amazing magic devices, deep pits, ambush soldiers... … there was nothing.
The three Gorgon sisters carefully advanced to the empty square in the center of the city. But we couldn't encounter anything until we reached the center of the city..
the city was empty.
Really, humans abandoned this place and ran away..
《……There really is nothing?》
The moment Medusa mumbles in despair,
Swish!
Suddenly, a human figure passed between the buildings on the side..
Kiiiiing!
Stheno reacted immediately and activated the magical eye of petrification. however.
Clang-!
The opponent reflected the evil eye with the mirror shield in his hand and then ran away to the back of the building..
《what?》
At the same time as Medusa muttered in a daze,,
Tadat!
fault-!
This time, the humans quickly ran to the opposite street and ran away..
Kiiiiing!
This time Euryale responded. The magical eye of petrification activated, turning the entire area into a pile of stones..
But this time, the humans avoided a direct hit with a mirror shield and hid on the other side of the street..
《What are you doing?……?》
This happened again and again.
Swish!
crackling……!
People pop out from all over the city,
Kiiing! Kiiiiing!
The three Gorgon sisters reacted immediately and fired their petrifying magical eyes wildly..
However, there were many buildings in the city center, and people used mirror shields to block the petrifying magical eyes and hid behind the buildings in the blind spots of the magical eyes..
《Pfft……?!》
The three Gorgon sisters are originally base-defense monsters..
They indiscriminately kill anyone who approaches them while hiding in their hideout..
……In other words.
‘Be sure to use the magical eye of petrification on all humans who come within a certain radius.,
Keying!
Kiiiiing!
If the petrifying magic eye is not effective and cannot petrify the opponent,.
《Crrrrr…….》
《Kyaaaaa!》
Move on to the next process.
Going to school-!
With this naturally strong body that has been passed down since the mythical era,.
He directly chases down opponents who have invaded his territory and kills them by tearing them apart with his own hands..
《Steno’s sister?! Euryale's sister, Anne…….》
Stheno and Euryale, caught up in the humans' temptation, ran out in different directions. Medusa tried to control the two, but,
Swish-!
Because of the shadow of the human knight that came into her field of vision, she had to reflexively use her petrified magic eye without realizing it..
Kiiiiing!
“Hmm!”
And the human knight deflected Medusa's magical eye with his mirror shield..
When Medusa came to her senses, her two older sisters ran away somewhere in the city... … He was the only one left in the central square..
《……What's this.》
I swear, I've never had anything like this happen in all these years..
A young man's voice was heard in Medusa's ears as she was dumbfounded by the development of a situation that was difficult to understand with common sense..
“In order to attack you Gorgon sisters, I had to tear you apart first..”
It was the article that caught my eye a little while ago..
“And it succeeded. After all, it is an operation given by the master. There is no way to go astray.”
A blue-eyed knight with flowing blonde hair walked towards Medusa..
Lucas McGregor.
The acting commander of the monster front approached Medusa fearlessly while looking at her in the mirror..
《He's a kid whose liver came out of his stomach..》
Medusa looked at Lucas with interest and tilted her head to the side with a popping sound..
《I don't understand, human. To keep us apart, just for that one thing... … They gave up the walls and opened the gates.?》
“…….”
《They took over the walls themselves and let us invade the city... … ? What kind of crazy operation is that??》
“The one who doesn't know is you, monster.”
A vicious smile appeared on Lucas' lips..
“You are not trespassing on this city..”
At the same time,
thud! thud! thud-!
Starting from the south gate of the Crossroads, all the way to the northeast and west - all doors in all directions closed with a dull sound..
Medusa was dumbfounded and glared at Lucas with her mouth wide open..
Sigh.……!
Lucas, who drew a dazzling sword made of light, exploded and roared with deadly force..
“We locked you up in this city.!”
《……!》
“Whatever you spit out from your eyes! How strong your limbs are! None of that matters! Just like all the other stupid monsters that hit this city... … Your neck will also roll over on this earth.!”
Medusa, realizing that the knight in front of her was no ordinary strongman, began to seriously prepare for battle..
《……hot.》
But I couldn't help it.
A sneer leaks from the corner of the mouth.
《After being lured, they fight each other. The operation was fun, human..》
Surely, if it's about the article in front of you... … You will be able to fight with yourself fairly well..
《But it seems like the other humans in this city aren't as strong as you..》
“…….”
《Will this strategy work as well as you think??》
Lucas's brow furrowed deeply. Medusa laughed, flicking her long tongue.
《Very strong, my sisters.》
Cold sweat ran down Lucas’ spine..
Yes. In fact, it was just as Medusa said..
‘I may have been bluffing, but this strategy was just a waste of time in the first place..’
What is tag?.
It is a game where you run away without being caught by the tagger..
Rather than fighting and winning, you have to hide and avoid… … It's such a reckless operation..
‘Hang in there, everyone..’
[Lucas gritted his teeth as he made the flame of light of the [sword that was given to him] even stronger..
‘I have to hold on.!’

crossroads downtown.
back street.
“Wow! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts.!”
Quack! Quad deud deuk!
The limbs of one of the knights caught in Stheno's hands were torn off..
Blood splattered everywhere. The knight, who was screaming at the top of his lungs, rolled on the floor as Steno threw him away like trash..
And I never screamed again.
“……ah.”
An idiotic groan escaped the mouth of another knight who was watching this scene while holding a broken sword..
There were two other equally mangled corpses of knights nearby..
These four knights were veteran heroes in their own right, having fought many battles as part of Lucas' party..
However, in a head-on collision with a corps commander-level monster, the winner was decided in the blink of an eye, and their lives evaporated in vain..
《……Crunch.》
Steno approached the knight who was frozen and unable to move, stretched out his arms and held the knight's body tightly.,
Kiiiiing!
The magical eye of petrification was activated..
“iced coffee… … Ahhh! AA AA AA!”
The knight's entire body turned to stone while he was still alive, and he let out a miserable scream. But the petrification did not stop.
After a while, the knight completely turned into stone. Stheno thoughtlessly threw the statue to the floor..
《Crumbling, rumbling.》
There are no longer any humans around trying to lure Steno..
That's because they're all dead.
Stheno tore apart and petrified all the human heroes assigned to him. There was no party for her to mark her now.
《Crrrrr……?》
Steno's white eyes, scanning the surroundings, jerked away..
For Steno, a base-defense monster, all humans who came within a certain distance from him were targets of death..
And where Steno is currently located, the place where the presence of humans is felt the most is…….
《……kick.》
A pure white building visible from afar.
It was a temple.
