Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 516
◈ 516. [STAGE 25] Player entrance
The midnight sun is a strong enemy.
In the game, the specs were truly terrifying, so if you took a position and poured out firepower, the walls of Crossroads would laughably melt..
Of course, the lives of the people standing on the wall also evaporated..
But games exist to be conquered. There is no such thing as a perfect enemy. In other words, there is always a gap to dig into..
In the game, Byakuya's weakness was that she was 'vulnerable to mental attacks'..
This is quite surprising considering that wizard class characters usually have strong mental defense..
‘Is it because I keep copying and pasting my thoughts over and over again that my durability has become tattered??’
Until this unexpected weakness became widely known through strategy information, the midnight sun was called the Third Year Wailing Wall..
After the strategy information became known, the number of users who took advantage of this and somehow managed to clear the game increased..
Of course, it is only 'relatively' vulnerable to mental status abnormalities, and this cannot deal the final blow..
For example, status ailments such as ‘Confusion’ and ‘Madness’, which are checks, can be applied, but it cannot affect the critical condition ‘Mental Control’..
‘What kind of boss correction is being applied arbitrarily?…….’
When I was playing it in a game, I felt like it was a reasonable balance adjustment because a high-ranking boss shouldn't be knocked out with a single mind control, but when I encounter it in real life, I just feel like it's convenience. Oh, just let me use my mind control.!
Anyway - So in the game, you always have to develop a character who specializes in mental attacks to deal with the midnight sun..
If you have a character such as a wizard who specializes in mental abnormalities or a Curser who casts curses, you can proceed with the strategy while weakening them by continuously inflicting mental abnormalities..
However, whether it's weakening or anything else, you have to fight head-on in order to use boss skills, and you have to be prepared to take damage..
Even in a weakened state, Byakuya summoned its huge eyes and used instant death every few turns, inflicting area damage with talisman bombardment, spreading darkness on the field, and casting fear on allies who approached this field of darkness..
Of course, the attack is intense, and the casualties are bound to be enormous. In games, more than 30% of Crossroad's total strength would usually be lost in a midnight battle..
What if it goes further than that? Is it game over or something?.
The Maginot line of damage is 30%. In other words, it was a powerful enemy that one had to always be prepared for at least 30% damage to..
‘So, take a detour..’
We don't have a wizard or cursor that can inflict mental status ailments, but we have a utility-specialized party gamble club that can be used instead..
But the problem with Gamble Club is that it is not a combat character..
Although he is versatile, his combat skills are poor. Even if you encounter the weakest mob, you have to fight in a bloody fight to be able to hunt it..
If you deploy it on the battlefield, it is obvious that it will be melted by indiscriminate magic or eye beams before you can do anything to the white night..
‘So the top priority is to ensure that gambling clubs have safe access to the midnight sun.!’
It was a long story, but anyway, the method I came up with is this:!
“It's a surprise party!”
1. Gamble Club can approach White Night without fighting
2. Let the midnight sun come into the center of our siege.
3. It can even catch the enemy off guard..
Operation Surprise Party is a profitable operation in King's view.!
“……But on the other hand,.”
Lucas, who was quietly standing next to me, coldly retorted..
“A single gesture from the midnight sun can kill a gambling club, and isn't the enemy monster commander entering the exact center of our base without resistance? Moreover, will the enemy commander let down his guard?…….”
Damn, that's a sharp rebuttal. I clicked my tongue bitterly and looked to the side..
Hotel Crossroads Party Hall decorated as a banquet hall.
Lucas wearing a refreshing light brown suit. And Evangeline, dressed in a fluttering light yellow dress, is standing on either side of me like a guard..
I looked at both of them in turn and whistled..
“Now that I think about it, I think this is the first time I’ve seen you dressed like this. It suits you well?”
“Suddenly, I was having a party, so I quickly took out the wedding dress I had made earlier and put it on... … It's a little small. I guess I'm a little taller.”
Lucas, who was embarrassed by my praise, suddenly came to his senses..
“Huh! Anyway, isn't this operation too much of a gamble, my lord??”
“Take the risk. If a scam show using a gambling club is successful, the benefits it will bring are too great..”
I answered calmly as I looked inside the well-decorated party hall..
Only then can you clear it reliably if you compete head-on. However, usually 30% of your allies are lost..
Is the lives of 30% of our troops a reasonable price to kill the third-ranking corps commander? Is it a reasonable cost??
…… Maybe so. Moreover, the forces of the World Defense Front will be expanded in the future, so perhaps 30% of the lives paid now may be a cheap price to pay in retrospect..
But if there is another way.
Perhaps there is a way to save the lives of our allies even a little less. Even if the path is a little unusual, if there is enough possibility,.
Of course it's worth a walk, isn't it?.
“Anyway, that method is a party..”
Evangeline, dressed in a fluttering light yellow dress, looked like some kind of chick. She may have grown a little taller, but her mental age is the same, so she still bounces around..
“I think you are a very smart person.…….”
Evangeline looked at me as I ate an armful of snacks in my arms..
“Can I be honest??”
“When were you not honest? say.”
“He is extraordinary, but sometimes he exceeds the scope of his extraordinaryness by a piece of paper, so to speak.…….”
“……It's like a fool?”
“yes That's it! You know it well.?”
Evangeline nodded furiously. Evangeline continued talking to me, who was laughing..
“……More than anything, I’m a little… … I feel uneasy.”
“I feel uneasy?”
“Regardless of whether it's Heukya or Soya, you've moved for us so far.?”
Evangeline's mouth slowed down as she chewed her snack..
“Of course, your information has never been wrong... … Because of the 'possibility' that has not yet come that they will attack us, it is impossible to attack those who have helped us all this time... … I wonder if it's really true.”
“…….”
“No, of course I know! They are monsters. It's an undead lich army. but… … I'm not sure anymore.”
Evangeline did not back down even in the face of our staring eyes and steadfastly expressed her opinion..
“Until we fight together on this front, elves, dwarves, beastmen, and mermaids... … To me, it was as distant as a monster. But now, regardless of birth, we are fighting together on the same side.?”
“…….”
“Isn't the same thing true for monsters? If they really want to stand by us, we can't be allies.?”
At Evangeline’s words, the image of Salome, the succubus queen, suddenly flashed in my mind..
Goblin God King Alexandre.
okay. There was definitely room for conversation with them. And we became friends, or almost became friends..
“……okay. You're right, Evangeline..”
Evangeline is right. What matters is not what birth is..
The criterion that separates humans from monsters is whether they can make an effort to understand each other..
“So, to give it a chance.”
“Opportunity?”
“okay. Do you really want to be on our side?.”
I chuckled..
“Or, is it all just a smokescreen and will eventually attack us? I'm going to do a test.”
In the game, whether it was Heukya or Soya - the wizard called Baekya was a monster who ultimately betrayed us..
But as Evangeline said, both of them are still only helping us..
I trust the information in the game, but there's no way there won't be another case like Salome..
So, I'm going to test it both ways..
It will depend on the results. Will this really be a party that strengthens unity among allies?.
Or will it be a bloody ball where we betray each other and stab each other?.
This is that kind of place.
“We just do what our master tells us to do and fight with all our might. but.”
Lucas looked around the inside of the party with calm eyes..
“Is this enough combat power to prepare for an emergency??”
Inside the party, the heroes under my command are waiting everywhere, each dressed in suits and dresses..
Everyone seemed to be clearly aware that this was a time of war, but their faces showed clear tension... … It was a nice outfit that you don't usually see, so it was fun to look at, even though everyone was nervous..
“Everyone is trained in the tactics to prepare for various situations, as taught by our lord. But to be honest... … The wizard's power is great.”
“…….”
“If it's a head-to-head match, we may suffer severe damage with our full strength..”
“don't worry too much.”
In the worst case, if the situation progresses to an honest head-to-head match, you will have to take more than 30% of the damage from your allies..
I didn't want that to happen either, so I put effort into plan B. I smiled and looked towards the entrance of the party hall..
“That's why I took out insurance.”
I thought it was time to come, but sure enough,.
“Please pay attention!”
At the entrance, the servant who called out the names of high-ranking visitors raised his voice..
Since many of the heroes here were fallen kings, the servant shouted their names quite a few times..
But this time, a name that no one had heard before came out..
“The legitimate heir, rightful spokesperson, watcher, and protector of the Lake Kingdom! princess of the lake!”
Everyone in the room was puzzled by the name they heard for the first time..
I was the only one who smiled while waiting for the other person..
“Anonymous is entering.!”
And then, the lake princess entered the party hall..
Again. Again.
As she entered the room with her shoes clicking, the sound of people in the party holding their breath echoed like dominoes..
I was so embarrassed that I broke into a cold sweat. what.
In the past, she was a nameless woman who was unrecognizably beautiful after being washed and cleaned, but this time she is participating as a representative of the Lake Kingdom... … He had his maids decorate it..
‘Is it a person??’
Her white hair, as white as snow, was neatly organized and tied at the back, and she wore light makeup to bring out her complexion on her pale skin that had not been exposed to light..
Long, organized eyelashes on turquoise blue eyes as clear as a lake. Below the coolly stretched bridge of the nose, plump lips with published lipstick.
As befits the representative of the Lake Kingdom, the color of her dress is light blue with a hint of green. A gold and red crown on her head. In his hand is a long scepter made of jade..
‘Looks like a porcelain doll……?’
If something is this beautiful, you won't be attracted to the opposite sex, but will just look at it like a work of art..
Anonymous, who came inside wearing low-heeled shoes, was embarrassed by the people's mesmerized gaze, but eventually showed respect and greeted those around him..
And then he quickly walked towards me. Nameless asked me with a slightly red face and gritted teeth..
“……Did you write that introduction, Ash??”
“Of course I wrote it.”
I shrugged..
“There's something wrong with it?”
“……no, no.”
To Nameless, who covered his head and looked ashamed, the heroes who had fought together in the dungeon came running from all directions in surprise..
“and… … ! Unknown sister! It's so cool when you decorate it! Please decorate it in the future too!”
“No, anonymous, you were royalty.?!”
“That too in the Lake Kingdom?! Why didn't you tell me this whole time?!”
“No, that's it…….”
An unknown person struggling while surrounded by other heroes.
I was looking at that with some satisfaction, and then I winked at Lucas..
“What do you think, my secret weapon is obscurity?.”
“Definitely a user of great beauty... … No, you are a force user..”
Lucas swallowed his sleep and looked at me..
“……But my lord.”
“huh?”
“If I'm not mistaken, my lord didn't bring you in as insurance.…….”
Lucas narrowed his eyes..
“Isn’t the reason why this party was held because of you??”
“……uh?”
I broke into a cold sweat..
Why is this Golden Retriever so perceptive sometimes?……?
It was then.
“Please pay attention!”
Unlike before, the servant at the entrance to the party shouted in a trembling voice..
“He is a descendant of the lost Eastern Continent, the owner of the Lake Kingdom's Magic Tower, and the third-ranking commander of the Nightmare Corps, and he has pledged to form an alliance with humanity! The star of this party!”
At the party, which had become noisy due to the appearance of an unknown person, a cold silence fell as if a promise had been made..
“Baekya is entering!”
And then, with a call, she entered the party hall..
A blue-skinned Jiangshi archmage wearing a tight-fitting oriental dress that clearly exposes her voluptuous body..
And following her, 10 other jiangshi-bodied Liches dressed in oriental black uniforms that clearly reveal their muscular bodies..
11The party hall suddenly became cold due to the appearance of 100 undead monsters..
As if enjoying the freezing air, Byakuya covered her mouth with her fan and laughed..
Beep.
I manipulated the tiny artifact in my ear - the communicator..
“Hogu entered.”
Among the heroes in suits and dresses who are very nervous-
Five gamblers from the gambling club dressed as waiters and carrying drinks and snacks naturally received my communication..
“Okay, players..”
I made eye contact with the monsters entering the party hall and whispered softly..
“Let's start the show.”
