Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 2 Episode 82
30. Nani?! (1)
Siege weapon.
This is a very important asset in the Civil Empire.
This is because swords and bows cannot destroy the castle walls even if they wake up from death.
[Protect the siege weapons]
Therefore, commanders continue to emphasize to players to protect the siege weapons. Players also die to stop it.
“There’s a catapult! run!”
“Turn around!”
Of course, when the enemy team sees a siege weapon, their eyes light up and they rush in.
However, since siege weapons are also close to buildings, it is difficult to neutralize them with swords and arrows.
“Replace with torches!”
The easiest way to kill a siege weapon is to set it on fire.
Due to the nature of the game, before upgrading the fire arrows, infantrymen must run and set fire directly.
There is a big problem with this tactic. The moment you raise the torch, it’s like advertising that you’re going to attack a siege weapon, so it’s very easy for the defender to block.
“It’s a torch!”
“Stop it!”
Aren’t torches very hard to see even at night?
The defending troops simply point out their spears toward the torches.
“Stab!”
Sigh! Phew! Poobuk!
Almond Team’s knights and infantrymen die mercilessly while holding torches.
“Kwaaeook!”
“100 million!”
Everyone fell down. The torch fell and a fire broke out in a harsh place, or the person died without being able to light any embers.
The Almond team’s soldiers barely managed to squeeze in.
But they have missed the torch.
He shouts.
“rope! At least cut the rope!”
The second way to neutralize the siege weapons shown here.
The crude catapults of the Middle Ages obtained elastic energy by unwinding a coiled rope.
So if you cut this off, you will virtually be unable to attack.
“Hang up!”
Now an infantryman is trying to cut the rope.
Huh!
I swung my sword vigorously.
puck…!
However, the rope of a catapult that throws several tons of rocks cannot possibly break so easily.
It is very difficult to cut it with a single knife unless you have a saw.
“Ah… Damn it!”
There was no chance to hit it one more time. Because those who block are not fools.
Poobubuk!
He was pushed away with a spear pierced through his body.
“I couldn’t break it in the end….”
Smash!
He fell to the floor and died.
After that, it becomes a soul.
‘Ah…’
I tried to cut off the catapult before it attacked the castle wall once more, but I failed.
If this is the case, is there any hope on this battlefield?
‘I’m going to lose.’
Sometimes the game is won or lost depending on whether the catapult hits the castle wall three or four times.
This game is already at a disadvantage, but now that we have to hit it one more time, there seems to be no hope.
I was wondering if it was right to renew my contract.
──Piyung!
A sound was heard and something passed by his ear.
puck!
“!”
It’s an arrow. The arrow hit the rope precisely.
Palp….
The rope wasn’t broken, but about 1/3 of it was dented and it was trembling.
“what!”
“It’s an arrow!”
The enemies also look around in confusion.
Probably a coincidence. I thought so at first.
“I have no luck.”
“Anyway, load the stones quickly!”
“okay! hurry! Quickly load the stones! “Shoot once quickly!”
Grumble.
Engineers rolling huge rocks and loading them into catapults.
Because sometimes the game is won or lost depending on whether the catapult hits one more time or not.
I had to shoot at all times.
But–
Piyung!
“!?”
“!”
Again.
The arrow hit the rope again.
This time it was dented up to halfway.
Is it a coincidence? Even twice could be a coincidence.
“uh…? “This is…”
But what catches their eyes is the type of arrow.
“Look at this. It’s Xcrash. “The one that flew in earlier was also an X-crash.”
“This is crazy… are you aiming for this?”
It was an arrow with an ax blade.
An arrow perfect for tearing soft objects.
Is it really a coincidence that such an arrow hit the rope twice in a row?
If this rope breaks, the catapult will take a long time to be repaired.
“Pull it!”
That’s why they pushed ahead. Even if half of it is torn apart, it’s still a game. It works as long as it’s on.
Good!
A launch pad containing a huge stone is pulled back and the rope is stretched taut.
“I can still survive two!”
“Shoot right away…!”
There was no time to aim. You must shoot right away before the enemy intercepts it again.
Now the catapult is about to operate.
──Piyung!
Before it can be thrown accurately, the arrow flies again.
This time, the arrow hit exactly the same location as before.
wickedness!
I’m sure it could have withstood two.
“!”
“!?”
“Oh no!”
This time the rope broke completely.
It probably broke much easier because it was pulled tight.
“Fuck you, jump out!”
“Ugh!”
The rock that lost its strength while trying to be thrown tilted toward the side where the rope broke.
Kugugugugung──
He just rolled over and destroyed himself.
──Quang!
* * *
“oh. done.”
Almond muttered in satisfaction.
‘But why does it break?’
In his theory, the catapult wasn’t broken. Luckily, the timing was right and it had a huge impact.
He pretended not to know and asked the Observer via chat.
I feel like I’m still lacking something, but I was wondering if I might have passed.
[Almond: Is it okay to do this?]
[Observer: I’m sorry, but I’m not making arbitrary judgments. We have to film the whole video and watch it together. It’s difficult to say so carelessly.]
The observer avoided answering.
Almond understood. It would be difficult to make a judgment if the person who does what the company tells them to do becomes independent.
‘But this time you don’t say it’s ambiguous.’
Still, it’s better than the previous version. At that time, I decided it was vague. This probably meant that this could not be done without even having to hold a meeting. This time I withheld judgment.
‘good.’
As an observer, I think it’s possible, but as an employee, I can’t give a definite answer.
‘I won’t look like a hacker just because I disabled a catapult.’
Also, Almond has high standards for himself, so he didn’t mind withholding his answer at all.
Of course, it’s just his opinion that this may not be that surprising.
The Japanese archer who was giving advice next to him is startled and approaches him.
“Hey hey. “Did you really do that?!”
Almond looked at him for a moment and then nodded.
“huh.”
The Japanese archer had a slack-jawed expression.
“How on earth did you do this?!”
“I cut the rope.”
“…?”
The archer had a dumbfounded expression.
“W From here?”
he asked, gesturing down the street.
Almond didn’t bother to say anything more, probably because it was annoying.
“Ah oh.”
He said that and continued shooting at the next targets.
Piyung! Piyung!
Soldiers dying every time he shoots his arrow.
“I’m crazy…!”
-He’s a master of reaction haha
-ㅉㅉThis is a Joseon bow
-ㅋㅋㅋ I like him.
The Japanese archer asked more persistently if he was convinced that Almond’s skills were real.
“Hey, but that rope doesn’t break all at once. Are you sure you kept hitting the same spot? With that Xcrash? Is it because it is a Joseon palace? Is the tension large? huh? What is your rank? S-class? Which country are you from? “This is Korean, right?”
‘What on earth is this guy doing?’
Almond frowned and only then did he check the ID that appeared above his head.
[ウイスキ?]
It was up. It said whiskey, but Almond didn’t know Japanese, so he couldn’t figure out what it meant. It didn’t matter. He couldn’t afford to have a friendly conversation with this person anyway.
“no. I’m Chinese. “There’s a video on AllTube that says they’re Chinese.”
-Kkkkkkkkk Chinese nuclear war kkkkk
-Laughing like a dog haha
-ㅁㅊkkk
“Main Chinese? But why did you create your ID in Korean?”
“To look good.”
-That’s a stupid thing to say haha
-Did you prepare your lines the whole time you were shooting an archery?
-Aseongsik’s surroundings!
Almond continues to hit the iron wall. Nevertheless, the Japanese archer seemed to want to mix things up further.
“Aren’t you actually Korean? He looks Korean…”
Unfortunately, the voice was drowned out by an even louder roar.
Kugugoogung!
It was the roar of an enemy siege tower.
The siege tower was rushing towards the castle wall about 100 meters away.
“It’s a siege vehicle!”
“Stop it!”
* * *
Siege tower.
In fact, the expression top car is more intuitive. This is because the siege tower is a tower that is equivalent to the height of the castle wall and can be moved.
When soldiers board this tower and rush up to the opponent’s castle walls, the siege tower can act as a makeshift elevator.
It is an elevator-type siege weapon that allows you to climb up to the enemy’s walls much more safely than a ladder.
Coo…!
The enemy’s siege tower hit its entire body against the wall.
Squeak!
The door opened.
Dozens of soldiers appear through the crack in the door. They rushed in, shouting.
“Turn around!”
Kurrrrr!!!
Dozens of troops rushed up the castle walls.
The soldiers were wearing heavy armor and even holding shields.
Just by looking at it, the outfit looks like rat poison to an archer. This is what the enemy commander was aiming for.
“Joe, you’re screwed! “There are only archers on the castle walls!”
“Crazy… how many people are there!”
On top of the castle walls with nowhere to run. It’s like a bunch of cats dropped into a box with nothing but mice in it.
Tieeing!
An order was given from our commander.
[Retreat]
It means to retreat from the castle wall.
Where can I escape from this narrow place? A stairway wide enough for only two people to pass by?
Pow!
A friendly soldier falls as if flying. He was struck by the enemies’ mace.
“Hit it!”
The attack has begun.
Bub bub bub!
In response, our troops fired a barrage of arrows, but they were all blocked by shields and armor.
However, the castle walls are too much of a mess to run away. This is a situation where an ally has to push away an ally and run away.
“Hey Shiba!”
“Ah-oh!”
“hey! Can’t you hear me telling you to retreat!? Move!”
The archers were shouting insults and making a fuss.
Rumble!
Seeing them, the enemy soldiers’ morale increased and they ran out.
“We are already defeated! “Knock it all off!”
“Okay!”
Dozens of soldiers were divided into east and west and ran with the intention of capturing the entire castle wall.
Our archers also divided into two directions and began to run away.
The east has already turned into a Tom and Jerry plot. But the west was different.
chuck.
Aren’t there two archers blocking the road in the distance?
One of them is almond.
“I… “Is this correct?”
The other one was a Japanese whiskey that happened to come across with him.
He followed Almond for no reason, and suddenly ended up fighting him 20 to 2.
Almond said this to him and pulled the bowstring.
“You shoot too. If you want to live.”
-(Because I have to be active)
-Nihon Jin Shack haha. I’m embarrassed
. -Then why are you following me? haha
