Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 572
◈ 572. [STAGE 35] Dogfight (4)
「Silver down! Silver down! Frigate Silver, crashed-!」
Kwasik! Kuwagwanggwang!
The frigate Silver, which spun and fell, ended up in the forest..
A swarm of flies swarmed around the fallen silver. They started tearing up the silver like a swarm of ants decomposing food..
Kelly Bay did not hesitate for long. The hands of the old dwarven blacksmith quickly manipulated the instrument panel..
Chii Iik-!
Going to school……!
The thruster reverse-sprayed and the frigate Gold came to an urgent halt in the air. At the same time, Lucas's embarrassing communication came in from Geronimo..
「Kelly Bay, why not?……!」
“I'm sorry.”
Kelly Bay opened his eyes and looked around the inside of the airship..
“I have to go save my son.”
The crew aboard the Gold nodded in unison..
Currently, the crew aboard the frigate Gold are all dwarves. He was a vassal of Kelison..
Their king has fallen and they cannot leave him alone..
Gold turned around in the air and shot straight into the forest..
and at the same time,
「entire fleet, halt-!」
Captain Macmillan shouted:.
The air fleet stopped accelerating all at once. Macmillan gave orders in a firm voice as if he had made a decision..
「Let's join the rescue operation while maintaining protection mode! Right Now-!」
Clap, clap, clap.!
Going to school-!
The airships turned back all at once and flew toward the forest, following Gold, which was flying ahead..
There were endless swarms of flies, but their attack power was not enough to break through the magic barrier of the airship. The air fleet advanced, crushing swarms of flies with its body..
「Damn, there are too many.!」
「It's almost impossible to see ahead.!」
「Check your bearings with scan magic and maintain a distance from your left and right allies! All you have to do is hold on until you get the silver.!」
Then, suddenly the flies retreated..
The flies that had been hitting my body in the air were scattered in an orderly fashion. The captains were perplexed as they checked the field of vision that suddenly became clear..
Lucas shouted urgently..
「Everyone be careful!」
Lucas knew better.
A sudden change in the monsters' movements is never a good sign..
Boooooooo…….
The Lord of the Flies, floating in the air far away, let out a long cry..
The three halos above the Lord of the Flies' head rotated violently, and the outermost halo began to glow white..
The Lord of the Flies stretched out his hundreds of legs in all directions, and immediately afterward.
Take a look-!
Hundreds of feet met at once in front of my chest..
Whoa whoa!
Immediately after, a huge shock wave poured out from Lord of the Flies..
In the sky, all the clouds were pushed away as if they had been swept away, and on the ground, all the trees in the forest fluttered their branches as if they were about to break in the opposite direction..
The air fleet was also swept away by this shock wave. and.
So so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so such!
Clang……!
The magic barrier that surrounded the airships was shattered in vain..
「Yes, the magic barrier has been invalidated.!」
「What is this……?!」
「It completely crashed! won't recover!」
The cries of Lord of the Flies were heard in the ears of panicked people..
Boooooooo…….
That ominous sound sounded like satisfaction, and.
I love you so much!
It seemed like he was giving a signal to attack his compatriots..
Flies that had retreated for a moment came rushing in from all directions. The airships urgently opened their gun ports and poured artillery fire at the clinging flies..
「Holy shit! There are too many!」
「Lord Macmillan, how?! Please give orders!」
「Lord Macmillan-!」
Macmillan was taken aback and froze for a moment..
The last bastion, the magic barrier that turns the airship into the strongest weapon of modern humanity, has been invalidated..
But will you go out of your way to cut through the flies and rescue Silver??
Otherwise…….
While the main fleet stopped for a moment to respond to a swarm of flies, Gold, controlled by Kelly Bay, poured all of its remaining firepower and headed towards Silver..
“Impact point setting completed! Launching all guided missiles!”
“Guided missiles and bombs are fired-!”
Doo doo doo doo doo!
Gold's rear launcher was fully deployed, and dwarven guided bombs rained down on the set coordinates..
The accurately fired guided missiles, emitting a long tail of smoke, bombarded the fallen Silver in a circle..
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
The flames rose and the flies were swept away..
While the crew was firing guns in all directions, Kelly Bay opened Gold's hatch and came out, shouting at Silver below..
“Kelly Thorn! Are you alive?-?!”
thud!
As soon as the words were out, the cover of Silver's side emergency door fell off, and the surviving dwarves stuck out their heads one by one..
“Oh my, father…….”
Although he was bleeding from his forehead as if he had been injured during the fall, Kellyson also crawled out struggling..
Kelly Bay let out a relieved laugh..
“Anyway, the rope is tough, this guy.!”
“Who do you look like like this? Okay, please quickly throw something at me.!”
“OK! we are here!”
Kelly Bay threw the rope. Kellyson grabbed the end of the rope and grinned..
“……!”
Immediately after that, the young dwarf king's face hardened. Kellyson shouted..
“Avoid it, dad.-!”
“what?”
Kelly Bay gritted his teeth, looked to the side, and encountered.
The eerie red compound eyes of the pouring swarm of flies.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Kwasik-!
The swirling swarm of flies struck the side of the gold with its body..
Gold's co-pilot tried desperately to maintain his balance, but a swarm of flies came crashing into him from the opposite direction..
Quad Deuk! Kwasik-!
one more group.
bang! Kugoong!
one more group…….
Quad deuk!
Swarms of flies attacked Gold from all directions, and the armor of the airship, which had lost its magic protection, was scattered like fish scales..
Gold, which had been beaten and staggered, was never able to regain its balance. The aircraft carrier's massive body flipped over on her side and fell straight to the ground..
Kellyson, with wide eyes, shouted..
“Oh my god!”
Kuwagwanggwang!
Falling to gold at a little distance from silver.
Kelly Thorn, who was looking in that direction with fascination, heard a scream coming from the communication device inside Silver..
「Gold down! Gold down! Following the frigate silver, gold is also down!」
「Here comes the flies from Lord of the Flies!」
「Barrier cannot be restored! I can't hold on any longer-!」
The rest of the fleet tried to somehow come down towards the two ships, but just cleaning up the flies flying towards them was too much..
The flies were clinging to the barrage barrage with skillful evasive maneuvers, as if they already knew how to avoid the fleet's fire net..
The magic barrier is also invalidated..
If things continued like this, it was obvious that this team would soon become like Silver and Gold..
Kelly Thorn, who was shaking with his fists clenched, suddenly pushed himself back into Silver. She then snatched up her communication device and shouted.
“Retreat! right now!”
For a moment, there was silence on the communication device..
Kellyson shouted again..
“If this continues, we will be wiped out! The reason Silver crashed in the first place was because I didn't maintain it properly. No need to feel guilty, come on! betimes!”
Macmillan hesitated..
But Lucas didn't hesitate.
「Order a retreat, Lord Macmillan.!」
「Ha, but!」
「Do you want to lose your entire fleet here? If we hesitate any longer, we will be annihilated! hurry!」
Lucas' shout sounded like a thunderbolt..
「We must retreat, now.!」
Macmillan took a deep breath..
The silence was short, but it felt like eons. And finally Macmillan gave the order.
「Battleship, retreating... … ! Continue throwing firepower and retreat at full speed.!」
The airships all turned back. The situation was already difficult to endure any longer. Several of the airships had already had their armor torn off, exposing their interiors, and several were even on fire..
Going to school-!
The fleet began to retreat.
As Kelly Thorn looked up blankly at the fleet moving northward, a voice came from the communication device. It was Lucas.
「Mr. Kellyson.」
Lucas offered no condolences or apology. instead.
「I wish you good luck.」
I said hello briefly like that..
Kellyson smiled and answered.
“Good luck to the Air Force Fleet and the World Defense Front..”
Kelly Thorn picked up his hammer, which was rolling around in Silver, and took it into his hand..
“Please make sure to get rid of these damn pests..”
pop-
communication was lost.
Kelly Thorn stumbled out of Silver's again, holding the hammer..
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-
Thousands of flies were spinning in the sky directly above the fallen Silver and Gold..
and… … Over there in the southern sky.
The Lord of the Flies stopped advancing for a moment and slowly approached..
Only two layers of the halo remained above its head, and the halo that had glowed white during an unidentified shock wave attack a moment ago had turned into powder and was dispersing..
“If you are also a secret.”
Kelly Thorn chuckled without realizing it..
“I don't know who made it, but it's awesome..”
I love you so much!
Thousands of swarms of flies circling in the sky poured down towards Kelly and the dwarves..
***
It's the second day since Lord of the Flies appeared. At noon.
I gritted my teeth in front of the returning airships..
Of the sixteen airships that sortied, two failed to return. The frigates were gold and silver..
Kelly Bay, Kelly Thorn, and their subordinate dwarves…….
They were unable to escape from the crashed airship. He would have died in the crash, or even if he had lived, he would have been taken as food by the Lord of the Flies..
“……I.”
I was shocked.
“This is what happened when a poorly maintained airship was ordered to hastily launch a sortie.…….”
I cupped my forehead..
Why did you do that??
It wasn't like me. It was a sortie order that was completely uncharacteristic of me..
Was I also shaken by the appearance of an enemy I had no information about?.
Since my memories of the strategy were useless, I lost my composure and used my troops unreasonably. As a result, this damage occurred.
‘I made a complacent decision, believing only in the protective power of the airship... … why…….’
When I thought I had lost Kelly Bay, who had devoted herself to me and Crossroads for a long time, I couldn't think normally..
Lucas spoke in a stern voice as I closed my eyes and blamed myself..
“My lord. Now is not the time to blame yourself..”
“……!”
“Even at this time, Lord of the Flies is advancing towards the Crossroads. We have to find a way to delay its advance, and find a way to kill it..”
The words that followed gave me a chill in my head..
“You have to protect the world.”
“…….”
After taking a deep breath, I opened my eyes and looked at Lucas. Lucas nodded his head..
“I will continue to report on the damage to the air fleet. All fleets began repairing their magic barriers, and the frigates Kite One and Kite Two were particularly heavily damaged and underwent emergency maintenance.…….”
Due to the unidentified shock wave released by the Lord of the Flies, all magic barriers were nullified, and the fleet suffered damage even while retreating..
In conclusion, even if the magic barrier device was repaired, the number of ships that could sortie again was reduced to about ten..
Macmillan was seen in front of the fleet, with a sad look on his face, ordering repairs. I bit my lip gently..
‘While the airship is being repaired, other methods must be used to delay it..’
An additional defense line is currently under emergency construction on the second day from Black Lake to Crossroads. This alone won't be enough.
What other method do I have?.
As I was counting in my head, someone came running in a huff from inside the city..
“majesty!”
When I turned around, it was Serenade and Diarmudine..
Serenade shouted with a bright, sweaty face..
“I came looking for historical records.!”
I opened my eyes wide. Serenade held up an old book in her hands.
“This is a history book that records the end of Lord of the Flies.!”
