◈ 148. [STAGE 5] Death penalty!
When facing an extremely difficult foe.
Regardless of which game, what is the recommended strategy?
‘It’s a one-turn kill after skipping the pattern.’
Blocking the enemy’s tricky patterns and pouring bursts of damage between exposed gaps to end it as quickly as possible.
It is a representative trick that is widely used from MMORPG to action games.
Junior’s ultimate skill [Dismantle Element] made this possible.
It’s ironic that the boss monster itself provided the idea for this ultimate skill.
Anyway, thanks to Selendion, he couldn’t use any magic or skills, and his magic defense fell below 0, leaving him in a very tasty state.
Now you have to lose.
Flashing-
Quguaguawang!
Jupiter, who blew that monumental first blow, collapsed backwards with a satisfied face.
“… .”
I didn’t look that way. I bit my lip and controlled my emotions. Because the war is not over yet.
A veteran who suffered a lot.
There is only one way I can repay your dedication.
To end this bloodsucking bastard forever.
“Guys-!”
I shouted with all my might to the party members surrounding Selendion.
“Fuck it!”
Whoaaaaaa-!
As if everyone had waited, they each grabbed their weapons and charged Selendion.
Selendion, whose magic stat was negative, quickly exposed her spiritual core even with a very weak magical attack.
The party members mobilized their own means to pull out his spirit core and shatter it.
kill.
If you kill him once and don’t die, he’ll kill you twice.
If you don’t die by killing twice, you’ll kill three times.
Four times, five times, six times, seven times, eight times, nine times—
Selendion’s death reached double digits in an instant.
《Heuk-?!》
Even as his entire body was dismembered and reassembled, Celendion was busy rolling his eyes.
It looks like he’s looking for a way to turn this situation around.
“Stupid bastard.”
If he hadn’t taken his own life from the beginning and revived his dead men and fought together. Then maybe we lost.
However, Selendion tried to wage war against us alone, holding on to his extra lives.
It was the same in games.
As soon as the last of his subordinates is defeated, Celendion begins to use the life remaining in the Legion only for himself.
Without knowing that it is a point to be attacked on its own.
“You are revered as the Lord of the Legion and all, but no. You are not a leader.”
There is no bow.
I coldly chewed and spat out at the face of Selendion, whose defeat was deepening.
“You guys are just… He is just an immature kid who used to play king by himself.”
Lucas’ last name cuts him with a long sword.
Evangeline’s castle stabs him with a cavalry spear.
Damian’s castle is shot through by an arrow.
God Hand and Body Bag drive down spare silver stakes.
Burnout arrives with Old Girl’s and Skull’s weapons and alternately shoots them.
The three tankers of the Old Hunters use their ancient weapons to kill him even with fatal injuries.
Lily throws a fireball.
Lily brought three loaded magic cannons and fired them at zero range one by one.
Lily brought the flamethrowing artifact… … No, just go there! How many times will you kill yourself!
… .
After killing Selendion once, even the reserve party members.
After a round of turns, Lucas was about to kill him, but a new participant came up from under the wall.
“majesty… .”
The vice-captain of the Twilight Corps approached with gnashing of teeth.
A deep rage flashed across his face as the bloodstained bandages were wrapped around his face.
“Will you give us a chance?”
I readily nodded.
“Of course.”
Boss mob Dagul is more fun the more people play it.
The party members handed over a spare silver weapon to the surviving Twilight.
The old soldiers charged Selendion with a hateful roar.
Ordinary soldiers who lost their comrades came up from under the walls one by one. I nodded.
There are still many silver weapons.
There are still many lives for this baby.
“Hey little things! Dare- Keuheouk!]
Mouth lived until the end, bastard.
Like that, Selendion died and died and died again and again.
***
The good times come to an end.
Around the time I had killed Selendion a hundred times, I sensed that the white ring floating above his head was fading.
The duration of [Dissolve Element] is running out.
“The happy Dagul time is coming to an end. Junior’s magic is coming to an end.”
At my words, Lucas looked at me with bewildered eyes.
“yes? But I haven’t killed all of them yet.”
He still has about fifty lives left.
But killing him 50 times in the remaining time is unreasonable. Physical lack of time.
“ha ha ha… !]
Selendion, noticing our situation, let out a devastated laugh.
《Looks like we’ve come this far, human.》
“… .”
“Still, it was really good. There were few things that pushed me to this point even in ancient times-]
“What are you talking about, you bastard?”
I chuckled.
“Did you say that the duration of the magic was over, and there would be no way to kill you?”
“what… .》
Having bitten the soldiers, I squatted quietly in front of Selendion and made eye contact with him.
Junior’s [Dismantle Element] is a skill that drops the target’s magic stat below 0, up to -99.
What does it mean that the magic stat has dropped to negative?
It means that it will become food for my 1st skill [Evil Eye of Command].
[Magic Eye of Command]
– Controls and forcibly controls the consciousness of the target that the eyes meet.
– The lower the magic stat of the target, the higher the success rate of the skill and the longer the duration.
※ The effect of the passive skill [Indomitable Commander] is not effective on allies.
It’s clearly written here. The lower your magic stat is, the easier it is for me to fall for my skills.
I gave him a smile.
“Since the fun time is over, we should have more fun now, right?”
[Use the Mystic Eye of Command.]
[Make eye contact with the target to use the skill.]
For an instant, the world slowed down.
The light blue interface unique to skill use spread out densely over the world. I looked straight into the vampire king’s red eyes.
[Target acquisition: 1 body]
[Please tell me the command.]
“Selendion.”
Putting my index finger forward, I whispered.
“Get down like a dog.”
Flash!
All of a sudden, the power drained from his body.
My heart felt tight. I skillfully wiped the bleeding nose. I am used to this feeling now.
[Command Difficulty: Easy]
[Contrast the user’s intelligence stat with the target’s magic stat.]
[Determine the success rate. Initiate the saving throw… … .]
Tring!
Less than a second after the start of the saving throw, a light blue light flashed in front of my eyes along with a sound effect announcing the completion of the judgment.
The results were nothing to see.
[Judgment completed!]
>Success: 1 body
[Execute compulsory command.] There is no way
it will fail
.
The difficulty of the command does not matter. Because that guy’s magic stat is abnormally low.
When the skill was activated, Selendion trembled as if struck by lightning. No, the thunderbolt was really hit earlier.
“what… .]
Eventually, Celendion knelt down slowly in front of me and pressed his forehead to the ground.
A shocked voice escaped from Celendion’s mouth.
“This me… This Selendion, the lord of all vampires… … Being mentally controlled by humans… … ?”
“… .”
“Such a thing… There’s no way it’s possible… … !]
I uttered a low voice to the guy who trembled and tried to raise his head.
“Cut your eyes.”
《… !》
Kung!
Selendion’s forehead hit the ground again.
Seeing the vampire king of the world prostrate himself servilely made me feel better. But I didn’t do this to make you feel better.
“I’ll show you my new skill this time, Vampire King.”
I grinned and pointed my finger at him again.
Those are the 2 skills I learned.
[Be mine!]
– Permanently incorporates 1 of the monsters under the Magic Eye of Command as an ally.
– ‘Loyalty’ is gained to the monster. A high loyalty will follow the player’s commands, but a low loyalty may escape the player’s control.
– You can use ‘Absolute Order’ only for the first time on the monster.
– This skill can only be used once per stage.
That’s it.
It is a simple and powerful skill that makes the enemy under mental control certainty as an ally.
Everything is good, but the conditions are a bit tricky.
No matter how low the command difficulty is, most useful monsters have high magic stats, so they don’t get affected by my mental control in the first place.
However, thanks to Junior’s [Dismantle Element], even the world’s Vampire King came within range of skill use.
then?
I have to write!
“Celendion, you… .”
I spat out the starting word for the skill.
“Be mine!”
Charleureuk!
Then, a dog collar with chains attached to it… … The same thing appeared in the air and squeezed Celendion’s throat.
《Kuk?!》
T-ring!
[The vampire lord Celendion (SSR) has been incorporated as an ally!]
– Current Loyalty: 0/100
– Absolute Command: 1 time
The skill effect is cool. it will be right
“This… what else… … .]
Selendion, who was looking down at the leash around his neck in dismay, bared his fangs at me.
“Don’t be ridiculous, human! Are you going to make me your dog?!”
“No way.”
I growled ferociously.
“You are going to die.”
It would certainly be useful if Selendion was included as an ally. ‘Cause you’re a dirty bastard
But Selendion is the boss monster. Among them, it is a corps commander-level object.
Loyalty management will be difficult and of course it will be difficult to control properly.
And above all.
“The morale of the allies that would be lost by letting you live is greater than the utility gained by saving you.”
This bastard has done too much damage to the lines here. I don’t know how many of my heroes died from this guy and his army.
It was like that in the game too.
When an enemy is made an ally with various mind control skills.
If it was an entity that caused great damage to this side, it adversely affected the morale of human heroes and soldiers.
In the end, the efficiency of the entire frontline would drop due to the human soldiers deserting or the negative traits running rampant before the enemy could be properly utilized.
It will lead to undesirable results than not recruiting.
‘The monster front is where humans stop the monsters.’
In the end, this is just an expedient.
The main character of the front line is always human. We must not forget this fact.
‘Now, after killing this bastard cleanly… … We have to share the experience.’
Actually, this is big.
If you join an ally, the boss skill experience will disappear. If we kill you right now, how many levels will you level up?
I slowly stood up, reached out my hand and gave a command.
“Ash ‘Bonehater’ Everblack, Commander of the Imperial Southern Front, prostrates himself like a dog and sentences the vampire lord Selendion to a summary judgment for humiliatingly surrendering.”
《No, I never surrendered-》
“It’s noisy! You bastard Celendion… … .”
What is the best ruling for a mosquito that sucks blood and keeps you awake on summer nights?
Of course there is only one
“-The death penalty!”
I screamed.
“execution! execution! execution! execution-!”
I used the ‘Absolute Command Right’ on Celendion, whose complexion was pale.
“Suicide, Celendion! Even your last life!”
