Stuck in The Tower Chapter 626

Chapter 626: The Demon Castle for a New Ending

! The king and his servants gathered in the former royal castle.

They used to wear classy clothes and act elegantly, but that’s not the case now.

“We need to collect more blood!”

“Shut up, bloodhound. The devil you contracted or something like that. It’s not old-fashioned.”

“Isn’t that what a corpse catcher would say? A guy who licks skin.”

“what? I’m sure you’ll come to your senses only when your face is ripped off today!”

Everything changed when Issar de Grain, the king of Pantademia, succeeded to the Demon King.

compulsory demonization. All members of the royal castle, including him, have been demonized, and now their essence is blurred under the influence of the demonic power they follow.

Except for a few.

“Huppenpedia is not important. What you really need to be wary of is Goi Palace.”

“Those abominations are some of the most dangerous in the game.”

“According to the information Sejak grasped, there is a possibility that the head of Goi Palace is a human.”

The Devil’s closest aides.

They embraced the power of demons while keeping their selves intact and became stronger.

5 star. Awakening.

Considering the strength unique to demons, these were the ones who could gain an edge compared to normal monsters.

The same goes for Millet Eihad, the leader of the knights. Even when he was in human form, he was a strong man who reached level 59, and now he is the strongest except for the Demon King.

A person who shows that classes are divided even in the same class. Even those who became demons he did not touch.

“Demon King, a completely different aspect is unfolding. A new force called Goi Palace has been created, and the way the game is played is completely different from what the demon king used to do in the past.”

“Even if you think about it, it seems that there is an intervention.”

“That’s right. It is an opportunity.”

The Demon King nodded slightly.

Those who have played the same role for a long time have one thought.

‘Why aren’t we given a chance?’

When players run for a new ending, why do we still have to repeat the same life and live like a puppet, only playing the given role?

It’s not that he didn’t try anything because he was a non-player NPC.

There have been times when I raised an army and there have been times when I have raised a bounty. All sorts of methods were used to exert influence, but in the end, all of them failed.

‘The system is really harsh.’

The king could not leave the castle and could not exert any influence until the game went to the second half and the players did not come.

Even if players come, they have no choice but to participate in the game indirectly by granting achievements and title quests.

Although she was an NPC, the feeling of becoming an NPC in the game was unbearable.

waited nonetheless I persevered and waited for the opportunity when it came. There will be gaps. The system is harsh but fair. Opportunity itself is given to everyone.

The NPC is a climber who once climbed the tower. The Demon King was well aware of that fact.

‘I will never throw away an opportunity in vain.’

He gladly accepted that he became the Demon King. Because I was able to directly participate in the game with a key role.

That’s why he moved the Demon King’s army.

Hupenpedia. When it was a royal castle, it was a strong breakwater, but now it was the closest enemy.

Despite the words of the knight commander that he should be more careful, sending troops was also his decision.

“Is the victory news yet?”

“Since we sent dispatches, won’t good news come soon?”

At the words of the knight commander, the demon king nodded.

Let’s not get excited. It is an opportunity that may never come again. If you have a little more patience…

-Koo-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu!

“What is it!”

“earthquake? Could there be an earthquake here?”

“Demon King, evacuate for now.”

sudden shock sound.

The building shakes, dust and stones fly, and frames attached to the walls fall and break.

Not once. A series of explosions and bells announcing an enemy invasion rang out.

– Jump!

The door opened roughly and a 3-star demon species rushed into the audience room. It was rude to say nothing even if I killed him right away as much as he became a demon and his hands became more rough…

“The enemy is the enemy! The enemy is here!”

“You mean already? What kind of guy!”

“Looks like Hupenpedia blocked the air raid. Even so, it wouldn’t hurt. Is it the Goi Palace?”

Everyone tried to judge the situation, but they were all wrong.

“Hupenpedia and Goi Palace’s allied forces!”

Everyone in the audience room wrinkled their faces at his cry.

* * *

“Ow. It flies well. Can I ride that too?”

“Because that’s not a ride.”

The hair loss man looks at the mountain golem throwing mud golems with interest.

It wasn’t a bad way, but it’s not the time for us to step out yet. I wonder how many people will be inside, so I’m going to relax already. It hasn’t been long since I fought at Hupenpedia.

‘I like high places.’

It is easier to see the entire battlefield when you have to be in a high place, so I modified the golem. In the old days, it felt like a Persian war elephant.

You can use it for combat or you can use it for command.

It’s not just me and the hair loss man sitting. Venom is recovering in my pocket, and the fire fighter and the awl fairy are also sitting.

It’s Hwamu-seon, and he’s fanning himself with a smile, and the awl fairy next to him…

“Why do you look so bad? Is it because the last hit was taken away by the hair loss man?”

“To be taken away! You made a concession.”

A sharp talker.

In the battle of Hupenpedia, he and the hair loss man dealt with two knights, and the last hit was all eaten by the hair loss man.

Although there is a distribution of experience points, it is true that the hair loss man ate more. I think I got a temper because of that, but what can I do? You should eat first.

That’s it.

“Certainly, the demon king prepared a lot. I knew it from the time of the surprise attack.”

“You won’t be too hard. I never thought they would hit it in reverse as soon as they block the air raid.”

“We should aim for the time when we don’t know the news, then.”

Yes. As soon as the air raid was blocked, Himerun was sent to Goi Palace to begin a counterattack.

It was an intention to hit the enemy before they could regroup, and they rushed forward with only a portion of their troops. This is because speed is important.

Just in case I missed one thing.

– Woo woo woo woo woo!

-Quaaaaaaang!

“Gooooooooo!”

That the enemy’s preparations were better than expected.

I installed the Great Magic Circle, as if I knew about the Mountain Golem.

Not only the mountain golems but also the golems that were preparing to fly were blown away by the huge explosion.

Nothing to worry about though.

“Because now is the real beginning.”

A suddenly shady space. There is only one reason for me to be shaded while riding on top of the golem.

“I’m here! I’m here!”

“Looks like you came on time.”

Pierre and Garti appeared riding a wyvern over there.

The monsters floating in the sky had a device made by Faedum, and there were monsters and siege equipment.

Then I heard a noise from behind.

“Everyone get out of the way! I will open the door!”

“This might need some tweaking. If the shaking is big, it will interfere with shooting.”

I saw the Minotaur troops pushing through the barrier, and the Knight and Padum riding a chariot.

If you add up the army that follows, the number is ridiculously over a thousand. If you add the players of Hupenpedia to that.

‘A little over 3,000, I guess.’

It’s not a small number, but it’s not a big enough number either.

Most of the players are still only level 40, and more than half of the monsters are 3-star or lower.

Enemies are basically 3-star demons. There seemed to be quite a lot of 4-stars, so if they collided, the resistance would be strong.

It’s okay though. That’s why I brought siege equipment.

“It’s time for the Hwamuseon Awl Fairy to move. Tell the expedition team as well.”

“It looks like the Great Magic Circle has also been used up, so the timing isn’t bad.”

“I guess it’s time for the little man to use his strength.”

-Koo-gu-gu-gu-gung!

– Kwaaaaang!

-Whee-ae-ae-aek!

Enemies fire cannons and ballistas. Arrows rained down, and hot oil and stones fell on those who approached the walls.

It is the Minotaur that pushes in between them.

“Oohhh!”

Use the reinforced wooden fence as a shield to advance forward. The monsters hiding behind it climbed the wall all at once.

Then, under the protection of the golem, the battering ram struck the gate, and finally…

[The Titan Golem will be summoned!]

The Titan Golem possessed by the expedition will do it for you.

It’s not as big as a mountain golem, but it’s comparable in size to a castle wall. The strongest siege equipment in the game with armor stronger than Iron Golem and even power has appeared.

If it was the original flow, it would have appeared to attack the demon castle, but it was different now.

-Kwaaaaaang!

“Aaaaaagh!”

“Cannon! Shoot the cannon!”

“We must stop here!”

The Titan Golem swings its fists and performs a body slam.

The walls of the castle shake greatly, and those who shoot arrows fall down and are trampled by the infested monsters.

– Kwa-gwa-gwa-gwang!

-To-do-do-do-do!

Is that all? Since the Wyverns were rapidly flying in the sky and firing, the enemy’s firepower had no choice but to be dispersed, and the fortress walls that had been firmly held up began to crumble.

“The sky ray is also quite usable.”

If it’s that high, even dropping a stone is a deadly weapon. It’s slow, but it has the advantage of being able to carry a lot of luggage.

There the infiltration unit jumps out.

“Beep!”

The harpy catches the plummeting guys and lands them on the ground.

A situation where the enemy invaded to the inside of the castle wall. In an instant, it becomes a mess.

-Quaaaaaaang!

“The gate has collapsed! Get inside!”

“Send siege equipment!”

Taking advantage of that gap, he smashed the gate. It’s a bonus that the Titan Golem breaks down the wall and opens the way.

After that, it’s train time.

Tanks equipped with defense equipment fired shells and machine guns. No matter how well the equipment is worn, the performance of the defense equipment is outstanding.

The resistance was strong, but the enemy’s damage was accumulated, and soon the flag announcing a retreat fluttered.

“retreat! Lure them into town!”

“Go to the designated location for the firing team!”

“Fortify!”

Of course, they weren’t fools either, so they planned a strategy in case the castle gate was breached.

-Taak

-Kwagwagwagwagwang!

-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

“Advance to the Demon Castle.”

“Waaaaaaaaaaa!”

The outskirts were already in my hands.

When they broke into the castle, the time bombs they had installed exploded all at once and the building collapsed.

Their second line of deterrence collapsed. The only thing left for them is a royal castle.

Our side suffered considerable damage from the invading soldiers, but we were able to enter the place where the demon king was.

“They said that the owner of the palace was a human, so it was true.”

“Welcome to the castle of the devil, you fools.”

There, the Knights who had gathered for the final battle were ready.

There were also plenty of elite soldiers to protect the knights, and the enemy’s executives behind them also showed up.

‘Why are there so many 5 stars?’

I thought there were at most 5 left.

Despite catching 4 people on Hupenpedia, there are more than 10 people who only show 5 stars.

Wouldn’t this break the balance? Or else…

“…This was my intention from the beginning.”

“You are quick-witted.”

From the beginning, these guys were investing heavily in only a handful of people.

Even the castle of demons is bait. They waited for the most dangerous people to gather in one place. Those who want to see a new ending will gather here.

The one protected by everyone in the distance raised his hand.

It’s a face I know.

Demon King Isisar.

The guy with all restrictions removed slowly lowered his hand. I also reached out to him.

“Win.”

“Advance.”

The heightened tension explodes, and the demon castle and the allied forces rush toward each other.

“For new opportunities.”

“For a new ending.”

It’s time to see the end of this game.
