Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 90
◈ 090. [STAGE 4] Joint attack (3)
The thick smoke cleared..
The fire quickly died down due to the pouring rain..
I covered my face with both arms to avoid the heat and carefully lowered my arms..
I saw a lump of burning metal. The three archers of the Shadow Corps aimed their bows and muttered shakily..
“The boss monster?”
“I think he's dead……?”
wiggle.
As soon as those words were spoken, the metal mass trembled. Everyone in the room was shocked and grabbed their weapons..
Crrrrr…….
That guy… … The Gargoyle Chieftain was still alive..
Even though half of its body melted after being hit directly by fire magic, the monster was still moving..
The guy was barely able to get up, his body still burning..
Wow... … Ahhh!
And then I started moving again.
His target was clear..
The opponent who made the strongest attack against you.
It was moving in the direction where Lily was. There will definitely be aggro..
Kraaaaa-!
thud! thud! thud!
The Gargoyle Chieftain let out a roar and resumed its charge..
“It's dangerous, prince.!”
Damien grabbed me and rolled me onto my side. Thanks to that, she managed to avoid his path..
“This crazy bastard!”
“It won't stop!”
The archers who were shooting their arrows also screamed and escaped from the path..
However, Lily.
I can't use my legs, so I can't escape..
If she had any magic left, she would somehow avoid it with [Flame Skin], but does Lily have that much magic left now??
Lily was looking at the monster rushing towards her with a pale, exhausted face..
As if calmly accepting the inevitable fate.
It was then.
Taat!
Godhand jumps between the monster and Lily..
And he took the melted mace that the monster swung with his remaining arm with his own two hands..
Ujijik.
A terrible sound rang out of nowhere..
“Wow!……!”
Godhand's hands and arms were crushed. God Hand's blood was sprayed all around..
However, even in that situation, Godhand used his skills like a metal magician..
Holding the Gargoyle Chieftain's torso in contact with his two crushed hands,
Damn it-!
opened it.
the monster's skin.
The steel monster had a red spirit core in its stomach..
Godhand looked back at Lily with a pale face and asked softly..
“You can take another shot, Senior Wizard.?”
“Pfft……!”
Instead of answering, Lily gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand..
Going to school-!
A sharp flame exploded at the exposed spiritual core..
In an instant, cracks appeared in the burning spirit core, and eventually it shattered. Clang-!
Cr… … Wow…….
And only then did the boss monster stop moving..
thud! Kugu Palace!
Its molten bulk fell sideways..
There was silence for a moment. I was the first to come to my senses..
“Damian! Give first aid to Godhand!”
“Yes, yep!”
Damien hurriedly ran to my instructions. Other shadow troops also gathered around Godhand..
“Ughhh…….”
The flesh was crushed and the bones protruded. Damian quickly stopped the bleeding from Godhand's horribly shattered arms..
“……why.”
Lily, who was staring at the scene stiffly, asked nervously:.
“Why did you save me, elf??”
“I just made the best decision..”
God Hand answered calmly..
“The battle isn't over yet. And you are the only one here who has the firepower to deal the final blow to those gargoyles..”
“…….”
“That's it..”
Lily gritted her teeth and tried to say something, then lowered her head and swallowed..
“lord!”
“Seniors!”
At that time, Lucas and Evangeline came running from the other side of the castle wall..
The two knights standing in front of me bowed 90 degrees..
“Sorry for this mistake…….”
“There is no shame. My lord. Please cut off our necks.”
No, do you think I would do that? Anyway, whatever the knight characters do, they try to repay with their lives..
“Now, raise your head. This boss monster has been defeated. Although there was some damage…….”
After kicking the head of the dead Gargoyle Chieftain, I turned my gaze to the other end of the castle wall..
“What happened to the rest of the monsters??”
What happened to the boss monster and the 6th group of the Gargoyle Corps that were hit by the magical eye of my command? The best thing to do is to fight among yourself and destroy each other..
Because of the heavy rain there was no visibility so I couldn't check in time..
I narrowed my eyes and concentrated to see over there..
thud… … . thud… … . thud…….
and.
The heavy footsteps of monsters were heard through the rain..
Eventually, dozens of gargoyle monsters appeared..
Their hands, dented and shattered as if they had been in a fierce battle, were holding pieces of the Gargoyle Chieftain's weapons and armor..
That was the result of the civil war..
The Gargoyle Chieftain whom I betrayed with the Mystical Eye of Command appears to have been torn apart by my subordinates..
“So then all we have to do is take down those guys..”
As I spoke, I looked around..
Everyone is extremely exhausted..
In addition to Lucas and Evangeline, who continued to withstand attacks from monsters at the forefront, Damian used up all his magic bullets, and Lily's magic power was squeezed to the bottom..
The same goes for shadow troops..
The leader, God Hand, has both arms shattered, and Body Bag is also suffering from depletion of mana..
The trio of archers are suffering from minor injuries, and God Hand, who supplies weapons, has lost his fighting power and is at a loss for arrows..
In this situation, will it be possible to safely defeat the remaining monsters??
“aiming!”
at that very moment.
“open fire-!”
A loud shout was heard from the left and right walls of the castle.,
pop! Bubbling bubbling!
patter……!
Shells and ballistae fired from both sides of the wall poured into the center of the wall..
Kwagwagwagwang!
The gargoyles that were walking towards us were suddenly caught in the crossfire..
Originally, it was an attack that wouldn't have worked, but the gargoyles were also injured while fighting among themselves..
Pickpicks fell one by one from the shelling and shooting..
After the storm of crossfire passed, there was no monster standing unharmed..
Dead or just crawling around with torn limbs.
As I looked at this scene with my mouth open in bewilderment, I saw an old soldier laughing out loud..
“There are no more monsters flying in from the south, so there's no need to maintain fire nets anymore, right?!”
He was the leader of the Twilight Legion, which was entrusted with artillery command..
“But it's also funny to just watch them fight in the center. I rotated the cannon, re-aimed, and just wiped out the remaining guys..”
“…….”
“hmm. Did we do something for nothing, my lord??”
I shook my head vigorously and gave a thumbs up in silence..
“No, you did really well..”
Wow-!
The soldiers, covered in gunpowder and dust, cheered as they fired their cannons continuously, even in the rain..
Thump, patter…….
The rain slowly weakened in the sky. Dark clouds were clearing from the distant southern sky..
“Gargoyles are no longer visible approaching.”
Lucas, who was staring at the southern sky, turned his head to me and smiled..
“It's a win. lord.”
“…….”
I looked up blankly at the clearing sky. Is it true that it only rained when we were fighting?.
“It's so crazy to have a shower…….”
When I turned around, I saw the soldiers looking at me. Everyone was only looking at me.
“after.”
After taking a breath, I stretched my hands forward and shouted.
“Transport the injured to the temple! Report damage to equipment and walls, and keep a detailed log of today's battle.!”
These may be old-fashioned things to say right after a victory, but I have to say something..
“If there are any mistakes you made in today's battle, be sure to reflect on them and use them as a pattern for the next battle. That's how you can grow.”
I thought about the mistakes I made during this defense. We reviewed points that could be improved..
The crisis we experienced must be engraved in our bones. Then the strategy becomes more and more perfect..
That way, people don't die.
“Every day you become a better soldier, every day this becomes a stronger front. And as this becomes a stronger front, I am also becoming a more capable commander..”
I looked at the soldiers and each member of my party..
The main party members who crossed the line of death with me today, and the sub-party members who suffered death as soon as they joined..
“You are completing me. really, thank you.”
I said it with all my heart and then shouted loudly..
“Okay, no more hard sounds! Prepare meat and alcohol! Today I buy it!”
The soldiers cheered as if they had been waiting. I smiled shyly.
Well, I wonder if there was ever a time when I didn’t buy it..
Amidst the crowd of people cheering in the joy of victory, Godhand was seen being rushed to the temple on a stretcher..
And the image of Lily sitting on the floor and staring blankly at that scene..
“…….”
I turned my head and looked up at the southern sky again..
When the rain stopped, a rainbow appeared in the distance..
This is how another defensive battle ended..
