I Became a Tyrant of the Defense Game - Episode 803
803. [LAST STAGE] Master of fate
In front of Crossroad Bonseong.
There was also a fierce battle going on here..
Against the monster that had already arrived right in front of the castle walls, humanity's last line of defense was now preparing to deploy white soldiers..
“White troops, ready-!”
Evangeline stood at the end of the castle wall and shouted. Then the white soldiers standing to her left and right suddenly blinked..
In the meantime, bows and crossbows in hand were used to create fire nets to block monsters, but the original purpose of the hand-to-hand unit was not to create fire nets..
Blocking monsters with your body.
They throw their bodies to support the front line, believing that other people in the back line will take care of the monster..
“The situation is urgent! The 1st and 2nd divisions are deployed at the same time.!”
The white infantry unit was currently divided into three groups..
1The division was commanded by Evangeline, and the second division was commanded by Thorkel. The 3rd Division, the reserve unit, was rotated or deployed depending on the situation..
“1The division goes east, the second division heads west! The 3rd division will be replaced with the injured when I give instructions.!”
Evangeline shouted again..
“input!”
“input-!”
“Smash the monsters-!”
The white soldiers rushed to the edge of the castle wall and prepared for battle. Evangeline also adjusted her cavalry spear, placed one leg on the wall, and looked down..
“…….”
I was out of breath for a moment..
black-.
I had the illusion that the pitch-black waves filling the horizon seemed to be rolling in endless waves..
A sea of monsters was literally rushing under the castle walls. The swirling tempest reached just below Crossroads' neck..
‘Although it was Crossroads that claimed to have caused the tidal wave, Crossroads was a port that was too shallow to block the tidal wave of the real monster coming in..
For a moment, Evangeline felt small and shabby..
How could I, such a small human being, stand against such a vast ocean??
“……!”
That moment.
Evangeline suddenly looked to the side..
The Cross family's karma is reflected in her eyes. All the 'paths' of the family that made a living killing monsters are reflected in her eyes..
Is that why??
For a split second, Evangeline saw ghosts leaning against the castle wall..
From distant ancestors to his own father..
It was the appearance of all the lords who had lived and fought against monsters on the walls of the Crossroads..
They all looked scared.
From the first Margrave Cross, who started the family business in a small wooden fortress, to the previous Margraves who led the iron fortress of the empire at its peak, to the father who desperately held on in the decayed fortress..
Everyone was scared. Fear was evident in their eyes as they looked at the approaching group of monsters..
“…….”
Evangeline didn't know. she truly didn't know.
I couldn't even imagine that my father, who always stood on the wall and showed a firm back, actually had that kind of expression on his face..
and…….
After struggling to catch his breath, the First Margrave adjusted his helmet and put his shield on his arm..
After that, all the margraves, regardless of gender or age, all who had inherited the Cross family line, covered their fearful faces with their helmets and tightened the shield straps tied to their arms..
My father let out a long sigh, bit his lip to correct his thoughts, and then grabbed his spear and shield..
‘ah…….’
Only then did Evangeline realize.
In the capital, he explained why his family, which was ridiculed as a village father on the border, was great..
What fisherman is not afraid of the sea?.
Is there anyone who is not afraid of the world?.
The moment they become great is not the moment they no longer feel fear..
This is the moment when you bravely face the waves even though you are afraid of the sea..
‘father.’
his daughter, his wife,
Your city and the world behind it…….
To protect the heart of my father, who overcame daily fear and silently set out into the sea of monsters..
A smile formed on Evangeline's face as she finally truly understood..
Is it an illusion??
There seemed to be faint smiles on the faces of all the Cross Margraves glaring at the sea of monsters..
“…….”
When I closed my eyes and opened them, there was no trace of the illusion..
But Evangeline Cross was no longer afraid. I acknowledged the fear and accepted it..
‘i am a little human.’
The shield in my hand is even smaller..
However, the future of the people who will be protected by this shield, this ‘connection’ that continues from the distant past and will spread into the future is unknown.-
It's definitely not small.
This may be the reason why the Cross family, and all those who stand against the world, sacrificed their lives to raise a small shield in front of the sea..
“ready for battle-!”
Evangeline shouted in an unwavering voice as she watched the monsters climbing the castle walls..
“Let's do what we always do!”
The voice of the next Margrave Cross was full of firm confidence, and that alone put the soldiers' minds at ease. Everyone in the white infantry unit prepared for battle in accordance with Evangeline's command..
Evangeline smiled as she commanded the soldiers on the front lines with the charisma of a city lord..
She was the daughter of a village father who made a living by the sea of monsters. and.
I was truly proud of that fact now..
“Battle begins-!”
Monsters climbed the castle walls, and humans threw weapons at them..
Crossroads main castle, the final defense line's desperate struggle has begun..
***
In front of Crossroad Bonseong.
Above. Unofficial Blue Pearl.
10 minutes before the crash.
“sir lucas!”
One of Lucas's lieutenants screamed..
“There is no longer any way to delay the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'.-!”
“……!”
Lucas, who was standing on the deck of an airship and cutting down a group of flying monsters, let out a groan..
All means of delay prepared by the guerrilla forces had been exhausted..
In the meantime, we were able to hold on to the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' with all kinds of special equipment and operations, but we were now at our limit..
Even the attacks of ordinary monsters were intensifying. Monsters were pouring in from both the ground and the air, and Blue Pearl was also carrying out an operation to block the Lake Princess while simultaneously dealing with flying monsters..
but there is no way anymore.
In the meantime, the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' was walking lightly, little by little, getting closer to the main crossroads..
Among the countless hordes of monsters, the monsters themselves were now making way for her..
It looked as if he was walking along a white path alone through the black waves..
“……It's not like there's no way.”
At that time, the Rompeler siblings, who were dealing with the flying monster with Lucas, approached with a grin on their face..
“There's some special equipment we haven't used yet, driver.?”
Lucas frowned..
“……It's too risky to use that on that lake princess..”
“But there's no other way, right? And the fall of Crossroads is a bigger problem than the risk we take..”
The Rompeler siblings took out the equipment they were wearing on their backs..
The female Rompeler was a huge anchor, and the male Rompeler was a multiple spear gun..
“What should I do when I'm already in the water, holding on to straws? is not it?”
“…….”
That was correct.
There was no time to hesitate. Lucas closed his eyes once and then opened them and immediately ordered:.
“Operation name ‘Weight of Obsession’ begins.”
When Lucas said the monstrous name of the operation they had given out loud, the excited Rompeler siblings high-fived each other..
Because there was no time, the operation began immediately. The details of the operation were also known to all crew members in advance..
Everyone knew that this was essentially a suicide mission..
“Blue pearl, rash! The goal is enemy... … 'The lake princess who can't sleep’!”
Blue Pearl, which was hovering in the sky, accelerated rapidly and descended to the ground..
Meanwhile, Blue Pearl was maintaining a certain distance from the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'. It was to use the Lake Princess's delay book without being caught in her attack..
However, this operation ‘Weight of Obsession’ inevitably presupposed an approach..
So Blue Pearl spread her sails to the fullest and charged towards the enemy, scattering a trail of blue magic..
《…….》
Hanging like a rope from the pitch-black gaze of foreign media.
The gaze of the 'Sleepless Lake Princess', who was creaking and advancing like a wooden doll, slowly moved. She was heading towards the Blue Pearl rushing towards her..
Saaaaa……!
‘Darkness gathered in the hands of the sleepless lake princess and changed into the form of a long sword, which was swung lightly towards Blue Pearl..
Wow-!
With an eerie sound that splits space, the sword of darkness was fired and flew straight in front of Blue Pearl..
And, Blue Pearl did not avoid.
Going to school……!
The sword of darkness was pierced precisely into the bow of the Blue Pearl..
But Blue Pearl endured..
On the contrary, he continued to charge, shattering the sword of darkness. The mermaid pirates on the ship cheered in unison..
“This is it-!”
“It's Siren after all!”
A siren statue was fixed to the bow of the Blue Pearl..
Nightmare Slayer transferred from La Mancha to Blue Pearl - [Solid Superstition].
This special artifact, made from the magic core of a ghost privateer, demonstrated its special abilities without hesitation..
‘Unbreakable)’!
Even if that attack was the most vicious blow ever launched by the Nightmare Incarnate, it was completely nullified.!
‘No, it's not perfect..’
Lucas keenly inspected Blue Pearl's condition..
Undoubtedly, even in the face of that terrible attack, [Solid Superstition] endured. But the bow around the statue was torn from the impact..
Even though the direct hit was nullified, the durability of the aircraft's bow was destroyed just by the shock waves scattered around it..
‘I can't stand it twice!’
But it was true that it withstood the first blow..
And while the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' was preparing a second attack following the unsuccessful first attack, Blue Pearl succeeded in approaching within the target distance..
“Harpoon, full bullet firing-!”
“Balsaaa!”
With the male Rompeler's shout, all the spear guns prepared on the Blue Pearl were fired at once. The male Rompeler also poured out all of the multiple spearguns he was holding..
Multiple spear gun, [Sea's Obsession]].
This is the weapon given to Ash, and the special effect of this equipment is... … forced bondage.
Once connected to this harpoon, the target cannot escape from it until the user retrieves it..
In addition to the harpoon launched by the male Rompeler, dozens of harpoons launched by Blue Pearl were wrapped around the body of the 'Sleepless Lake Princess'..
“Success!”
“leave-!”
Just like that, Blue Pearl turned around and ran away..
to the south.
And when the male Rompeler decided that the distance was long enough, he shouted at the female Rompeler..
“Anchor it!”
“okay-!”
The woman, Rompeler, threw the huge anchor in her hand overboard..
The name of this anchor is [Weight of the Sea]].
This is also equipment given by Ash, and its special ability allows the user's ship to 'anchor' immediately the moment the anchor touches the ground..
Kugu Palace……!
[The moment the weight of the sea] fell on the ground.
Geek……!
Suddenly, the Blue Pearl stopped as if frozen in the air..
And, the 'Sleepless Lake Princess', whose harpoon was wrapped around Blue Pearl, was also unable to advance further north and had to stop in place..
The 'Sleepless Lake Princess', who was trying to walk to the north where royalties were located - the crossroads, was fixed as if nailed in the sky above the south, and it looked as if she had been caught with a harpoon gun..
《…….》
Toad, toad, toad, toad.!
The other spear guns that Blue Pearl had prepared all used magically strengthened strings, but they all rotted, cracked, and broke just by the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' touching them..
However, the line connected to the special harpoon launched by [Sea's Obsession] held out..
‘The ‘Lake Princess’, who couldn’t sleep, tried to pull Blue Pearl back to the station by pulling the rope tied to her. But the Blue Pearl anchored by [The Weight of the Sea] did not budge..
In the end, the 'Sleepless Lake Princess' had to stop at that point, unable to move further north..
“Where are you going in such a hurry? I made plans for a party?”
“I don't think you understand the current situation, but I heard you have to pay a hefty toll to pass this road.?!”
“Uh-huh, toll tax! It should be called friend rain..”
“That's right, friend rain! Let’s pay the friend fee and become friends, friend.!”
The two excited Rompelers shouted with joy..
But the joy was short-lived.
Taat-!
‘The 'Sleepless Lake Princess' turned around and lightly kicked the ground - shooting towards the southern sky..
The speed was completely different from the slow movements of the past. The two frightened Rompelers hastily collected their equipment..
“Release the harpoon and retrieve the anchor.!”
“Immediate evasive maneuver……!”
Originally, it was an operation to retrieve the harpoon and anchor, escape, and then continue to block and lure the Lake Princess in the same manner..
The ‘Sleepless Lake Princess’ moved at an unexpected speed. Everyone at Blue Pearl was taken aback by this unprecedented movement..
Even before the harpoon and anchor were taken away, before any evasive maneuver was performed..
The 'Sleepless Lake Princess' who had dug into the intersection threw a sword of darkness..
In the midst of this, the competent helmsman accurately steered the ship and withdrew from the direct hit with [firm superstition].-
The only thing that survived was [firm superstition].
Quad deud deuk!
The front part of the Blue Pearl caved in..
The tremendous power of the sword of darkness tore off the [Solid Superstition] from the bow and pushed it into the inside of the ship..
The bow, which was already in tatters, was crushed, and the ship collapsed from the bow to the hull. The mast broke again and again and it rained down chaotically..
Blue Pearl, unable to withstand, immediately lost lift and,
Kugwagwagwagwang!
I fell into the middle of a bubbling battlefield full of monsters..
