I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 7
◈ 007. [STAGE 0] Battle (2)
‘calm down.’
The panic was short-lived, and my mind cooled down in an instant..
‘There's no way it doesn't exist.’
The queen was clearly on the list of stage enemies. Then it will definitely be in the map..
‘In the first place, the purpose of this stage is not boss skills. It is not surprising that the boss monster mark does not appear separately..’
I remembered the array of spiders I had looked at earlier, and quickly looked at the siege of the ones I could see..
Even during an all-out attack, there will be a reserve unit that stays in the rear..
Safe rear. Escort entities in case of emergency.
The queen has no choice but to be there..
bang! Quaguagwang!
The clash between spiders and soldiers had already begun on the front line of the castle wall, and the roar of battle was ringing out..
Gunfire, clashing metal, and screams…….
‘where is it?’
In a fit of confusion, I desperately glanced at the expansive map..
‘Where are you? where?’
Immediately after, my eyes stopped.
Southwest of the forward base fort.
Red dots that were particularly far away from the group were clearly displayed on the map..
‘found!’
I immediately screamed..
“damian!”
“yes!”
“It's over there! Can you see it??”
I stretched out my hand to the southwest.
Damian frowned, narrowed his eyes, and looked in the direction I pointed..
I took the telescope from the skirmisher and tried to give it to Damien, but,
“……yes. I see some spiders sitting still..”
Damian said that with the naked eye, without a telescope..
I can't believe you really see it. All I can see is procrastination. How good are your eyes??
“There will be a queen among them. Can you find it??”
“…….”
Damien, who was looking over there, trembled..
“The queen has the lower body of a spider and the upper body of a human... … Are you talking about a monster??”
bingo.
“Accurate.”
“Yes, I see it. a little… … It looks scary…….”
“There's no need to be scared. 'Cause soon they'll be flattened by our cannons.”
Then I ordered the artillerymen.
“Turn the gun! The direction is south-southwest! Damian and I will do the detailed aiming.!”
Kugugoogung Palace!
The artillerymen rotated the device on the floor to change the direction of the battery..
The gun barrel, with its mana bouncing like an electric current, turned its head towards the queen in the distance..
“Mana cannon, ready to fire!”
“Mana charge is complete. You can shoot anytime!”
“good!”
I grabbed Damian's arm and led him to the mana cannon's control panel..
Although the power was outstanding, the aiming system was extremely poor..
The method was to aim roughly with the sights and pull back on the large trigger that rose upward to fire..
“catch.”
I urged Damian, who stood dazedly in front of the trigger..
Damian, who was sweating profusely, placed his hand on the trigger with a trembling hand. but he couldn't pull.
“I… … Woe, prince..”
“why?”
“I'm not confident.”
Damian looked back at me with a tearful expression on his face..
“I've never done anything like this before. Even if you suddenly leave it to me…….”
“damian.”
I gently grabbed Damian’s shoulder..
“You can guess.”
“yes?”
“I take full responsibility.”
“…….”
“Even if you make a mistake, even if you fail, even if you ruin everything! are you okay. I am responsible for everything.”
Soldiers just do what their commander tells them to do..
It is the commander's responsibility to handle the results..
“All you have to do is aim at that monster and pull the trigger. That's all you need to do.”
I tried to smile as warmly as possible.
“You're taking revenge on half your friends..”
“Against… … enemy…….”
Damien's eyes changed when he heard those words..
Damian took a deep breath, squeezed the trigger, and aimed through the sights towards the far southwest..
Following Damien's subtle touch, the gun barrel changed height and direction..
Fine tuning takes just a few seconds.
Clap!
And then, Damien's hand pulled the trigger with all his might..
Clap! Cheolkeong!
The grid collided, and magic devices I did not know began to cause chain reactions one after another..
Pachichichichik!
The gathered mana splashes a violent electric current beyond the gun barrel,,
Toukwaang-!
It was fired with tremendous force..
The power of the runaway mana cannon was something that even the artillerymen had not anticipated..
The artillerymen, startled by the roar and shock wave, all fell backwards, and I covered my ears with my hands and rolled on the floor..
However, both eyes remained wide open until the end and followed the trajectory of the fired magic bullet..
‘That's right.’
A bright blue bullet of mana crossed the sky..
‘That's right!’
Across the southern sky - amidst the distant black dots.
“That's right-!”
I shouted out loud without realizing it..
Bubble bung……!
And, landing.
The fallen mana bullet caused a large explosion in the distance. The rising dust cloud was clearly visible even from here..
I quickly got up.
“Did you get it right??!”
The answer was not Damian, but a scout who was looking at the impact point through a telescope over there..
“Hit! It's a hit! I hit right in the middle of the monsters.!”
The soldiers on the battery cheered in unison..
Damian, who was rolling on the floor like the other soldiers, had an awkward expression on his face..
Artillerymen surrounded Damian and pounded his back..
“This is really amazing, young friend! It's my first time doing this, right??”
“No, that's it…….”
“How on earth did you aim at something that far away? I can't see it clearly even through a telescope.!”
“How did I do it?…….”
Damian looked down at his hands with wide eyes..
“Just like the prince said... … The moment I grabbed the trigger, I knew what to do and my body moved on its own..”
Because this is a game world, I wonder if the skills have been adjusted. Or is that Damien's natural talent?.
I didn't have time to think about it. This was because the scouts who were looking at the impact point through a telescope looked at me with a blue face..
“……Stir, Your Highness.”
The scout's voice was trembling. An ominous feeling ran down my spine..
“why but.”
“It's moving.”
“what.”
“A bunch of spiders over there... … starts to move.”
I ran to the telescope, moved away from the skirmisher, and put my eyes on it..
“……!”
a mess.
The spiders from a distance began to move in unison and form a formation. That… … Is it dustproof??
‘damn!’
I gritted my teeth..
The black spider army stops moving when the queen dies. Because it’s no different from having your brain destroyed..
But the spiders were still moving along just fine..
Not only those who were hit by cannons, but also the spiders attacking the forward base did not lose their momentum at all..
‘That means……!’
the very next moment,
Kiyi…….
An evil howl echoed across the battlefield..
There was no need to say who the owner of that cry was..
Kiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The Spider Queen's terrible scream filled the battlefield..
Even though we were so far away, it was difficult to breathe for a moment because of the evil energy coming out..
Confused soldiers held their heads and screamed..
“what? what's the matter?!”
“I didn't hit the spider queen.?”
“But why is it okay??!”
The mana shell hit accurately..
The problem was that the damage was not enough..
“Everyone, come to your senses! Stay calm! Keep shooting at that monster.!”
When I shouted, the trembling soldiers all looked at me. I screamed louder..
“Load the next shot! hurry!”
“yes, yes…….”
The artillerymen trembled and clung to the mana cannon. The overheated gun barrel was cooled and the next bullet was prepared..
It was then.
Kiyaaaaaaaak!
The Spider Queen let out another terrible scream, and immediately the movements of the entire black spider army changed..
key profit…….
Kieeeeek!
The gazes of the spiders that had surrounded the forward base and poured out attacks turned all at once. Directly towards the battery where we are..
The monsters' red compound eyes flashed fiercely. The corners of my mouth trembled and I broke into a cold sweat..
One order is extremely fast, queen.!
Doo doo doo doo!
The spiders that had been pounding the entire forward base turned around and started pouring towards this battery. The skirmisher screamed..
“They're coming to the battery.!”
“The units below will take care of the defense! You guys load the next bullet! hurry!”
I urged the artillerymen.
“We must kill the queen before they reach the battery! Load it-!”
The artillerymen desperately sprayed cooling magic on the mana cannon and loaded ammunition. It didn't take long before the sweaty artillery captain shouted,.
“Loading completed!”
“Damian! shoot!”
Damian, who was squinting his eyes and examining the location of the Black Spider Queen, pulled the trigger as soon as I said those words. Clap!
Pachichichichik!
Toukwaang-!
Mana bounced like an electric current, followed by mana cannonballs. I swallowed dry saliva and looked at the trajectory of the cannonball through a telescope..
The bullet cut through the sky in a beautiful arc and fell straight onto the Spider Queen's head.,
Tukwagwang-!
impact.
With terrifying accuracy, it hit the monster queen directly on the top of her head..
“Hit! It's a hit! It's accurate!”
The excited skirmishers jumped up. But I wasn't excited at all.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk-!
This was because there was no change in the movements of the spiders flocking this way..
‘lack!’
Although only a silhouette can be seen in the distance, the queen's appearance is alive and well..
I ground my teeth hard.
Generally, if it is the queen of the black spider army that is first encountered in the middle of the second year, the damage from this artifact can be cut to pieces in one or two hits..
To begin with, the Black Spider Legion is a strong combat entity, and the Beggar Queen is not strong..
But the queen of this tutorial stage is?
no information.
What if the object values are different? Is there a special gimmick? No, if it's a 'can't kill' decision just in case?
‘then what should i do…….’
All kinds of bad thoughts came out one after another. I quickly shook my head..
Just do what you can. Until the last moment, I just hang on and hold on for the sake of clearing.……!
“His Royal Highness!”
The artillery commander, who was maintaining the Mana cannon for the next launch, urgently reported to me..
“The magical core has forced it to run wild, so it's reaching its limit! The damage to the gun barrel is also significant! There are fewer shots than initially expected.!”
“It's a long story! So I can shoot a few more times?”
“A total of five shots... … I fired two shots, three shots to go.!”
three feet.
I can only hope that the Spider Queen dies within the next three steps..
‘No, in the first place…….’
I looked around the defense line around the battery..
‘I don't know if I can fire all three shots, but.’
thud! Kugu Palace!
The wires were falling..
The spiders flocked to one point and fiercely used their teeth and claws to tear down the castle wall and begin to infiltrate..
“Stop it! It must be stopped!”
Lucas, now covered in monster blood, shouted and swung his sword. But the defense line was already on the verge of collapse..
“Ouch!”
“Wow!”
The soldiers began to cry out in despair and collapse helplessly..
Black spiders spread red-colored eyes and infiltrated the castle walls one after another..
I looked down at the death that was approaching right in front of me and clenched my fists..
