Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 489
◈ 489. [STAGE 23] Dark clouds (2)
next day. afternoon.
The weather was dark with thick dark clouds blocking out the sun..
Kugung… … ! Kugu Palace……!
In this dark time, Gorgon's nest was preparing to bloom again..
The entire nest vibrated slightly, scattering sand in all directions. Medusa would soon appear after completing the sister predation..
Human heroes gathered in front of the nest..
I tried to regain my condition in less than a day, but my limits were clear. The heroes unwrapped their bandaged bodies with tired faces..
A five-person party at the center of these heroes.
The impromptu party consisting of Lucas, Thorkell, Zenith, a warlock, and a blind swordsman naturally came together again today..
While adjusting her posture and preparing for the battle that would soon resume, Zenith blurted out:.
“But would it be okay to call our party ‘Misters’??”
“What is the name of the party that smells like cum?……?”
The warlock was fed up..
But the blind swordsman nodded..
“Come to think of it, all the members are old men? Wow, I suddenly feel a sense of kinship.?”
“Yesterday, Lily said the same thing to us when she saw us, ‘guys’… … That's intuitive..”
Thorkel spat calmly..
But Lucas' shoulders trembled in shock..
“……No, since yesterday I've been hearing people call me uncle. I am not a man. I mean, I'm still in my early 20s..”
I'm already feeling strangely hurt because Evangeline calls me "mister" and "mister" because of our age difference..
Now, do we really have to be lumped into one category among these real men??
The blind swordsman clicked his tongue at Lucas..
“hey. Listen up, handsome young man. There are two men in this world. Either you are an uncle or you are planning to become an uncle..”
“Well, that can't be... … ! I will never be a man!”
The other four men chuckled as they watched Lucas declare his resistance in vain. Because they once thought that way too..
Kugugugugung Palace!
At that time, the nest vibrated loudly once..
It was a signal that an enemy monster would soon appear. The jokes they were exchanging stopped and the heroes raised their weapons with tense faces..
Lucas looked to the side. Evangeline, leading the remaining heroes, nodded her head towards Lucas..
“I'm ready!”
“good…….”
Lucas raised his voice and shouted.
“Everyone, don't forget! Our goal is not to kill this monster! Scattered throughout the city, it's just a waste of time.……!”
The heroes nodded one after another..
Lucas, wearing his helmet, shouted again..
“Okay, operation begins! spread out…….”
However, the command to ‘spread out’ was not delivered..
Kiiiiiiiing!
Inside the collapsing nest, in a thick cloud of dust - a magical eye with terrifying force shot out like a bullet..
Quad deuk! Quad deud deuk!
“What, the magical eye of petrification?……?!”
“too fast-”
“Ahh!”
“Ahhhhh?!”
The magical eye of petrification fired like a surprise attack was incomparably faster than the previous ones, and its range was twice as wide..
Except for a few heroes who barely managed to lift the mirror shield, everyone was swept up in the magical eye. The heroes turned to stone and screamed..
“Oh my, damn it…….”
Lucas was trembled among his allies who had become stone statues..
Gooooo…….
Through the cloud of dust, Medusa... … A complete Gorgon has appeared.
The Medusa flying in, slightly rising from the ground, was even bigger, more hideous, and had a more terrible appearance..
The snakes hanging from its head were intertwined and tied back like one giant snake, and its limbs, thick as logs, were tightly attached to its rock carapace..
Under a pair of wings on its back, a pair of tails covered with animal fur were wriggling..
Gray sand constantly swirled beneath the wide-open gray eyes..
The long, torn mouth almost reached below the ears, and three long tongues were lashing out inside the mouth..
Just looking at the reflection in the mirror was overflowing with evil that seemed to pollute my mind..
Lucas frowned and drew his sword..
“The operation does not change... … ! Everyone spread out! dragging time-”
《no.》
At that time, Medusa chanted briefly..
《The game of tag is over now.》
Medusa waved her hand lightly..
Kugugugugugugung!
Then, rocks rose like a wall surrounding the area..
Lucas was speechless. The manned operation that was to be carried out scattered throughout the city was blocked from the basic premise..
《here you die.》
thud……!
Medusa took a heavy step forward and cried out in sorrow..
《Your death, no, the destruction of royalties... … ! I will dedicate it to the requiem of my poor sisters.!》
***
The last heroes of Crossroads were wiped out..
The reason they were able to withstand the Gorgon sisters so far was thanks to the space of street fighting, where they could easily avoid the evil eye of petrification..
However, Medusa limited the space, and when she attacked with a magical eye with overwhelming range and speed in a narrow space surrounded by walls, there was no time to withstand it..
One by one, the heroes were petrified and fell... … In the end, it was only Lucas and Evangeline who stood on their own two feet..
“ha… … ! ha……!”
Evangeline let out a rough breath..
Not only did he use his ultimate skill [Last Fortress], but he also held up a shield to protect other heroes throughout the battle and took the lead against Medusa's attack..
As a result, almost all of my strength has been used up by now. Evangeline had a feeling that she wouldn't be able to move much from now on..
《Looks like I can't run around anymore, human.?》
Medusa flew towards Evangeline with her wings spread and struck down from the sky..
Kyaaaaa-!
A powerful sound wave poured out from the monster's wide-open mouth.,
Blah blah, blah blah……!
The sound wave shattered all the ice mirrors on Evangeline's shield..
“Ugh?!”
Evangeline groaned as she lost the means of defense to offset the petrifying magical eye. And Medusa did not miss the opportunity..
Kiiiiing!
Medusa attacked like a bomber, flashing her petrified magical eyes. Evangeline gritted her teeth..
grasp-!
And then Lucas, who rushed in from the side, pushed Evangeline away with his foot..
Lucas' urgent kick touched Evangeline's shield, and Evangeline was pushed back and barely escaped Medusa's petrification range..
But Lucas was placed right in front of Medusa's eyes. And Lucas' mirror shield had already been shattered..
“Uncle Lucas-!”
Lucas chuckled as he heard Evangeline scream..
“……You only get one chance, girl..”
Quad deuk……!
Lucas was turned into stone..
Evangeline, who had been lying down, gritted her teeth and stood up. Medusa rose into the sky again and was circling above her..
《To be petrified instead, what a tearful camaraderie..》
When Medusa sneered, Evangeline flashed her fangs and laughed at her..
“All I can do is your sisterhood that eats the bodies of your sisters.?”
《……This insolent lump of blood…….》
Medusa, who was trembling, roared and fell down..
《Don't talk nonsense when you don't know anything about our sisters-!》
Without erasing her cheeky smile, Evangeline covered the shield with ice again, held the shield forward, and pinned it to the ground..
“It's the same with you who want to destroy us without knowing anything about us.……!”
《Why don't you know! About you humans - I know damn well!》
Kyaaaaa-!
Medusa used the same tactic as before. First, a powerful sound wave was fired..
Jjeok, jjanggerang……!
The ice on Evangeline’s shield shattered all at once. The shattered ice instantly cast a blurry rainbow in the air..
Kiiiiing!
Medusa activated her petrifying magical eye again and approached Evangeline closely..
I planned to turn the useless shield into a block of stone, and then even destroy this tiny human hiding behind it..
but,
《……?!》
There was no.
There was no one behind the shield that hardened to stone in an instant..
《What?》
Embarrassed, Medusa quickly turned her head and looked around.-
found.
Taat-!
A human knight invading his side.
Evangeline had planted a shield on the ground as a decoy, and escaped right to the side when the ice was broken by sound waves and her vision was blurred..
“This time… … waited!”
Evangeline's green eyes flashed brightly..
The huge cavalry spear in her right hand glowed dazzlingly..
[[Damage Payback].
[Damage Save], which saves damage inflicted by the enemy by blocking it with a shield, and [Damage Payback], which emits the stored damage through a window.].
This is the combat method of attack and defense possessed by a shield lancer named Evangeline..
During the past few days of battle, Evangeline used [Damage Save] to block enemy attacks and save damage, but never once used [Damage Payback]..
The storage capacity has already increased to its limit through awakening, and even though the capacity was filled by using [The Last Fortress] to take damage from allies instead,.
Never once did I fire this energy at the enemy..
All for this one moment……!
‘I squeezed it to its limit and gathered one shot.!’
A truly fatal blow!
“Feed me- Jumaaaaa!”
Flames rose from behind the great cavalry. The flame spirit enchanted on the cavalry sprayed flames to provide propulsion..
Evangeline was sure. This attack works!
slippery.
“uh?”
and at that moment.
Evangeline's posture collapsed..
Evangeline hurriedly looked down. A piece of ice broke from her ice shield and lay at her feet. I slipped because of this.
My ankle was broken. His posture collapsed. Evangeline stumbled ridiculously.……
“I think I'm going to make this mistake?!”
……didn't fall.
Sighaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Breaking the ice by stepping on it, Evangeline took a strong step inside..
Already in the second half of the second year.
Evangeline had long since grown out of her childish days full of mistakes, and her fully blossoming skills had reached their peak..
Evangeline miraculously recovered her broken posture. And she gritted her teeth and threw out her spear.
《Big black?!》
Medusa quickly spread her wings and tried to escape the attack range, but-
Fuuuuuk!
Evangeline's cavalry followed like a guided missile and penetrated Medusa's abdomen..
and,
Quagwagwagwagwanggwang!
exploded.
It literally exploded. Throughout this battle, all the damage accumulated up to the limit through [Damage Save] exploded in one [Damage Payback]..
With the explosion, Medusa's abdomen was reduced to powder. The cracked upper and lower bodies were completely separated from each other..
Evangeline was convinced with an overwhelming sense of touch..
‘I did it!’
……If it were a normal life form, it would have been.
It was powerful enough to cause instant death, and the wound was so severe. but,
“……?!”
Medusa, who became a complete Gorgon, was a monster whose entire body was made of rock..
Medusa was floating in the air with dirt like blood pouring from her cracked upper body..
No intestines spilled, no bones broken..
It's just a hole..
“What is this…….”
《It was really pretty, human..》
Medusa lifted her long mouth and smiled..
《If I hadn't eaten my two sisters, I would have died in that attack just now..》
“This monster bastard-”
《A new sound.》
Kiiiiiiiing!
Medusa used the magical eye of petrification. And Evangeline had no more means of escape..
With a helpless smile on her face, even Evangeline turned to stone..
《……Did you knock them all down?.》
Medusa looked around. There were no more moving humans..
《Is the forefront of humanity this far?.》
Medusa picked up her broken lower body and placed it between her upper body..
Stones and sand flew in from around the wound and joined the wound, connecting the upper and lower body..
Recovery is roughly complete. Medusa raised her eyes fiercely..
《I'll make you all suffer what I suffered.》
Now that the walls of humanity had been torn down, it was time to destroy humanity in earnest..
《My resentment for having to be born with this curse because of a sin I didn't commit... … You all feel like stone…….》
To the north of this front. to destroy all humans…….
It was at that time that Medusa, who had made up her mind, was about to turn away without any regrets..
“Hey, monster.”
I heard a voice.
“It's too early to leave. There are survivors here.”
《……?!》
Medusa looked at him in confusion..
I saw a human standing up unsteadily from somewhere far away..
A champion helmet with a laurel wreath carved on it, and a large right-angled square shield. And holding a mace.
The only survivor of the leprosy extermination squad..
It was Thorkell..
“I… … This is the last line of the battle line..”
With a half-petrified body, I squeezed out a voice that was rough from breathing in stone dust..
Thorkel declared..
“Crossroads is still... … I'm fighting against you.!”
