Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 507
◈ 507. [STAGE 24] White night
“This is because the path the lord is currently walking is the path leading to the true ending..”
I raised my eyes at Ader’s words..
The road I'm walking on? what is that?
I just… … I'm just desperately struggling.
But Ader nodded with confidence..
“Even though the road is winding and sometimes takes long turns... … There is no doubt that the goal point is what the lord is looking at..”
“…….”
“So don't worry. You can continue to do it like you do now..”
I wanted to ask about the specific method, but Ader was deliberately saying it as if it shouldn't be done..
Just keep moving forward as I have done so far..
“There will be a lot of agony, a lot of pain, and a lot of pain in the future... … If you are a lord, you will do well as you have done so far..”
In front of me who remained silent, Ader smiled as carefree as usual..
“Please, this world and the unknown… … Thank you very much.”
***
And Ader is gone again... … did not lose.
After setting the mood as if he was going to disappear forever, he settled back into his room in the manor house. What are you doing, you bastard?.
He officially submitted his resignation from the position of Youngju's aide, saying he was not feeling well. But I didn't make any repairs and just accepted my resignation..
“Take a break and let me help you again when you feel better. After all, you are the director. There will be times when you need help.”
Ader just smiled without saying anything, but I wanted this guy to stay by my side..
There are only a few beings who know that I am a soul that was created like this..
There are only a few beings who know all about the system and other mysteries of this world..
This mysterious director will definitely be needed on my journey someday. If possible, don't go missing from now on, just stay here..
As for the position of the lord's aide, Serenade had been handling most of the administrative work while this guy was away..
At this point, let’s ask for a formal serenade..
“…….”
I sighed softly as I watched Ader go back to her room..
Lately, I've been feeling tired because I've only heard so many abstract stories..
‘Is it the sacred fire, the darkness of the other world, the true ending?…….’
What the hell is that, you bastards! Can you tell me a specific story about a reality where if you just hold out your hand, you will be caught??
I just want to protect this Crossroads, embrace the people around me, and live together..
- So don't worry. You can continue to do it like you do now..
……okay.
In that sense, what Ader just said is somewhat helpful. I took a breath..
As we have done so far.
kill the monster save people.
using all available means.
Then you will find out. The trivial backstory and the identity of the true ending.
I don't look away, I just walk looking straight ahead..
“Seniors! Please bake me just one more!”
“May I also ask you a favor, my lord??”
The pigs, who had just eaten their third piece of toast, grunted and asked me a favor. I sighed and entered the kitchen..
“gain weight Just eat one more and grow.”
As I watched the two pig knights answering yes, I stopped laughing..
Let's do what we do. with my people.
3Years of war. Continue.
Suddenly, I looked out the window and snow was falling..
It was a complete winter.
***
a few days later.
Stage 24. The day of the defense battle.
On top of the snow-dusted castle walls, my soldiers wearing winter coats are lined up in a tight line..
The army, dressed in black coats with thick fur and leather, was a spectacle in itself..
I blew out white breath, looked back at the soldiers, and waved my hand away to shake off the snow that had accumulated on my shoulder..
Currently, Crossroads is fully prepared for defensive warfare..
Although Army Commander Baekya boasted that he would take care of the monster army with his own hands, he was also a monster. He had no reason to trust.
It is fully equipped with anti-aircraft fire nets in case the monster army invades as planned..
Soldiers were also trained in related tactics. Even if Byakuya does not keep his promise, there is no major problem in defense..
However, it is difficult to guarantee the extent of damage..
On average, when dealing with an army of flying monsters, regular troops take a lot of damage. More than anything.
“It's a night raid.…….”
The current time is night.
We did our best to improve visibility by lighting bonfires everywhere and installing lighting artifacts, but it was still a pitch-black winter night..
How many hours are left until dawn?.
In this situation, if an army of monsters attacks, regular soldiers, even if not heroes, will suffer considerable damage..
‘Unfortunately, the invasion time was fixed through a dark event.…….’
The opponent hit the player.
So that they couldn't adjust the invasion time with [Gadith's Blessing], they used a dark event - 'Night Attack' - where the invasion always starts in the middle of the night..
After careful consideration, the [Goddess Blessing] I used was ‘Night Eyes’.’.
Expands and corrects the night vision range of all allies. Although it may not be as strong as daylight, it will be possible to intercept from a distance at this level..
‘It would be nice to have some moonlight.’
Unfortunately, today is the end of the year.
Moreover, the weather is overcast and snowy. It's hard to expect even starlight, let alone moonlight..
I expect it to be quite a classic. I swallowed dry saliva and glared at the southern sky, which I could not see clearly..
“My lord! This is a report from the scouts.!”
Lucas shouted, wearing the armor he saw on his coat..
Although he was uncomfortable with the original armor at first, Lucas was now willing to wear it..
As it has been proven to be a piece of equipment that acts as a counter against an army of monsters, it seems that the shape of the equipment does not matter in order to lead the battle even a little more to one's advantage..
“It is said that the first wave of the Monster Army has crossed over the southern forest. It'll be in sight soon!”
“good. Preparing to launch the entire army-!”
As soon as my order was given, the artillerymen loaded their cannons and ballistas in unison, and lighting artifacts emitting light illuminated the sky like searchlights..
All of the artillery's firing lines had already been aimed towards the sky..
If monsters come into range, even the sky can be melted by this fire net..
and,
Kieeeeeeek-!
An ugly scream rang out. It was a high-pitched, sharp scream that made my bones tingle just by hearing it..
With that scream, far away in the dark, snow-covered sky... … The shape of a huge bird appears.
It's far and dark. At best all I can see is a blurry silhouette.
Nevertheless, all the soldiers swallowed their saliva at the sight of that hideous form..
There are 12 wings on the left that sprout and flap as they please. 3 on the right.
The legs are single-legged, and the protruding claws swing like the tip of a huge spear..
And, the head.
A total of five heads with sharp, forked beaks that look like bombs exploded, and glowing red eyes..
Kieeeeeeek-!
The five heads simultaneously opened their beaks and let out another scream..
Thanks to the cold protection and earplugs that block sonic attacks provided to everyone in advance, there was no damage, but it was just as scary..
“Where do I look at that, it's a bird, it's just a dragonfly…….”
I mumbled and glared at the monster commander of the monster army..
Monster King.
As befits a monster with 'king' in its name, it is a powerful entity. This guy accounts for about half of the entire strength of the monster army..
While the regular soldiers deploy their fire nets to block the rest of the monster army, the hero parties must go out in full force and conduct an aerial raid..
The monster's large body approaching from the darkness was a tremendous threat in itself..
The hero characters under his command all grabbed their weapons with tense faces..
Soon the monsters approached the range of our defense line. I raised my hand and tried to order fire..
It was that moment.
flutter-
There was a sound of fluttering clothes, and someone came down from the sky higher than the legion of monsters with a light movement and stopped the legion of monsters flying in from the air..
A crown studded with beads and a face covered with an amulet. Wide application.
The 3rd ranked nightmare corps commander. It was the magic great white night..
《As promised, I came to show sincerity. player.》
Even though there was a long distance away, his whispering voice rang clearly in my ears..
I waved my hand urgently. My soldiers did not fire their cannons and went into standby mode..
Kieeeeek?!
Surprised by the sudden appearance of the Nightmare Corps Commander, the Monster King let out a confused sound. The red eyes on its five heads were filled with confusion..
Kiyaaaaaat-!
As if warning, the Monster King cried out loud, but Baekya did not move and stood in front of the Monster King..
It took only a moment for the emotion in the monster king's red eyes to change from embarrassment to anger..
The monster king flapped his wings violently, and the monster army that had slowed down for a moment shot forward all at once..
Not toward our wall, but toward the midnight sun that blocks them..
I love you so much!
The entire monster army flew in at full speed, aiming for one point. Then Baekya giggled and laughed..
《I'll show.》
The hem of her long sleeves slowly crosses the air-
《Why am I called the Magic Emperor?.》
-The snow powder has stopped.
As if it were a lie, the snow powder suddenly stopped falling from the sky. Embarrassed, we all looked up at the sky..
The dark clouds that filled the sky and poured snow had disappeared before we knew it..
Instead, an alien darkness fell in its place..
shakily, shakily…….
sound of bugs gnawing.
The same darkness that covered the Lake Kingdom was gathered like a cloud right above the head of the midnight sun..
Ugh-
And the clouds began to part.
What is revealed through the parted clouds…….
“……White?”
Lucas muttered blankly..
“Why is the night sky only white?…….”
What emerged through the gradually dividing darkness was something pure white..
At that moment, I recognized its identity..
I immediately shouted to the soldiers.
“don't look up at the sky!”
“yes?”
“Everyone bow your heads! You should never look at the sky!”
I had a hunch.
‘'That' is something that ordinary humans should not see..
The soldiers did not understand what was going on, but they faithfully bowed their heads in accordance with my orders. I gritted my teeth and saw the white sky slowly opening..
No - not the sky..
that… … It's 'snow'.
Ugh.
A huge eye opened in the dark sky..
The whites of the eyes were so huge that it felt as if a white sky had opened up..
The red eyes that rotated in the darkness were located in the exact center of the whites of the eyes..
《Take a close look.》
Looking up at those eyes from directly below, Byakuya muttered in an ecstatic voice..
《This is the source of the devil, which I arrived at after a lifetime of research..》
Kiyaaaaa!
The Monster King did not back down.
Letting out a desperate scream, he did not stop charging towards the midnight sun that was now right in front of him..
The only way to stop that unidentified eye is to defeat the magician in front of you. The monster instinctively knew.
However, rather than the Monster King reaching Baekya... … It was faster for the eyes of the sky to spot the King of Monsters..
The giant red eyes stared straight at the Monster King.,
my eyes blinked.
Kwasik-!
The next moment, the monster king's body was crushed to pieces..
It was a single blow.
