Episode 431. Kraken (2)
Abusive language that comes out like a rapid-fire cannon.
Father….
Rotain opened his mouth like a crucian carp.
Who would dare to say such cruel things to the honorable second-in-command of the Holy Cross?
It was he who received the support of the Holy See, as well as numerous prestigious families in Europe.
Even more so, until the tower appeared, the petit bourgeois must have been the opponent in front of them.
If the opponent hadn’t been for the famous Jinhyeok, he would have given the order to open fire right away.
“Kang… Player Jinhyeok. No matter how great you are, this is a family matter.
“I’m sorry, but Teresa-san has a leg up on this side as well. Besides, if there is a daughter who is suffering in the bean flour family, of course she wants to save her.”
“Nose, soybean flour? Are you saying that the Holy See and the Knights of the Holy Cross are soybean flour? Now!?”
“Oh, sorry.”
Jinhyuk quickly apologized.
“If you thought you would go over to apologize now…”
“No, I’m sorry to the bean powder, not you.”
What did you say to the delicious and healthy soybean powder?
That is food waste that cannot be collected separately.
“Kuaa!”
“Chief of the deputy knights…”
“Be patient. There are many eyes to see.”
Rotain spewed life, but no further action could be taken.
This is because the Kraken, which had acquired a lot of prey, began rampaging in earnest.
“Koooooo!”
Legs protruding from the water wrapped around the ships.
Unlike the White Pearl, which escaped quickly, normal ships were easy targets for the Kraken.
“Aaaagh!”
“Sah, save people!”
The huge ship was destroyed in half and disappeared.
As the ship sank, the vortex that appeared swallowed up all the survivors who barely survived.
[The Kraken is using the passive ‘Fleet Predation’.]
As the attack power increased, the Kraken’s size also became larger.
Parts side!
Red lightning bolts falling from the sky.
Various fish swimming in the sea also grew.
From his point of view, it was as if a fancy buffet was set up on the sea.
“Don’t back down and face it. It’s no use running away anyway!”
“Hand over all magic potions to magic players. While fighting in other guilds, prepare magic that can be eaten by him!”
At least the competent engineering commanders encouraged the engineering staff and saw an opportunity for a counterattack.
Even in the strong current, they tried to maintain their formation and find gaps.
But the opponent was so bad.
Fighting! Bang!
Harpoons bouncing aimlessly.
Forge a harpoon for catching whales. On top of that, flame-based magic was overlaid.
It was an attack in which more than 30 magic players who had done doping added acceleration magic.
Even so.
“Do you mean that it won’t even get scratched?”
Searching for a strategy is pointless.
In the first place, it was questionable whether the attack itself was possible.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
An out-of-the-ordinary catastrophe across the sea.
No one could have hope while watching a large 6-star ship sink in one blow.
Kwajik! Quadduk!
Players who fell into the sea were eaten by great white sharks or drowned by jellyfish.
The water turned even redder.
“Ugh… everything is wrong.”
“You have to run away. Wherever, wherever you don’t know the ship!”
The ships, completely out of their senses in fear, rammed into the whirlpool while playing with the rudder.
one two.
In less than 30 minutes, 1/3 of the ships that came here were gone.
At least, the remaining ships only had their lives extended.
Sooner or later it would meet the same fate.
When the situation was like this, the remaining fleets had no choice but to unite.
“Player Jinhyeok Kang…”
“Isn’t there something sharp?”
“Well, I’ll do whatever you ask. Please help me.”
Status windows appeared one after another in front of Jinhyeok.
Each guild’s engineering leader or deputy engineering leader. Or they were executive-level rankers equivalent to that.
‘When the tail falls off and runs away, come and save me now…’
Jinhyeok laughed as if he was dumbfounded.
I also feel sorry for the guy who used Theresa as a sacrificial blow.
The rest of the guys who knew it but tolerated it were also worth it.
But
‘If I just told everyone to die, the Kraken would become stronger.’
Even now, it is difficult to inflict effective damage, but if I became a monster, I did not know that it would become irreversible.
The specs of each guild and the rankers they have.
And the variables that can be created through it.
The worry didn’t last long.
“From now on, you must do only what I tell you to do.”
Jinhyuk made a decision.
* * *
Fleet layout has been reorganized.
Based on the formation Jinhyeok made, the ship was spread wide.
It was the result of responding as quickly as possible while the Kraken was arranging the fleeing ships.
“Are you sure it’s okay to do what that man says?”
A ranker belonging to the Holy Cross Knights cautiously opened his mouth.
A woman with permed brown hair reaching her waist.
It was Jaina, who was in charge of the raid’s main ranged dealer.
The Knights of the Holy Cross, which were relatively deployed in the rear, seemed safe at first glance, but Jin-hyeok’s intentions were too suspicious to believe at face value.
It was because there was no reason to give them a safe position now that it had become an uncomfortable relationship.
In fact, the only mission of the Knights of the Holy Cross is to destroy the various types of reefs that will soon appear.
Other than that, no further instructions were given.
“Yeah, they must have plans. They’re probably using us as bait.”
Rotein smelled it too.
That’s why I had no intention of doing what Jinhyeok told me to do.
“Fred. Are you done figuring out the ocean currents?”
“I thought it was weird, but it’s as you would expect.”
A player who specializes in reading the flow of ocean currents.
Fred, who had a skill related to ‘sailing’, continued to observe the flow.
The waves and the concentration of salt began to change subtly. And to the strength of the wind.
all of that
“Soon, the tide will change.”
“Yes. Our location will change closest to the Kraken. In terms of time, it will be in about 15 minutes.”
I knew it. made this joke
He was thinking of using the ship of the Knights of the Holy Cross as a scapegoat.
But you wouldn’t even know that the plan was read.
“What are you going to do?”
Rotain gave a fishy smile at Jaina’s question.
“For now, we will pretend to be fooled. Then, we will use the opponent’s strategy against them according to the timing when the ocean current changes.”
Since he was a Rotain who had served in the military for over ten years before joining the Knights of the Holy Cross, he showed roughly how the other party was drawing.
Besides, there was a trump card prepared through Eden, so you can use it if the situation arises.
Right then.
After the hunt, the Kraken began rushing towards the fleets.
The splitting currents and the huge shadows visible beneath the currents.
1 minute 1 second felt insanely long.
‘Damn this guy’s tower, the more I go, the more it turns into hell.’
Rotain snapped his molars.
I didn’t even think that I was safe even if I was relatively in the rear.
The only thing that filled my head was the thought of wanting to get out of this hellish place as soon as possible.
* * *
Puffup!
Perong!
The ships in the lead fired their guns.
The target is the whirlpool, not the kraken.
It wasn’t just concentrating firepower, it was spaced out at regular intervals.
Like playing a rhythm game, aiming for different whirlpools at different times.
At first glance, it looked like a useless attack, just like before, but
…
A strange thing happened.
The Kraken, which was galloping forward without hesitation, was suddenly sucked into a nearby whirlpool.
The Kraken first showed the inside with its mouth.
…now!
[Maria fires Lv16 ‘Hellfire’!]
[Oh Ji-won activates Lv15 ‘Black Mamba’s Venom’!]
[Yoshio activates Lv16 ‘Yumekaze’!]
[Bae Hyeon-je…]
Gak The rankers on the ship used their skills at the same time.
Colorful magic powers struck the area where the mouth was.
“Keeeee!”
A voice full of pain.
The wound healed quickly as always, but it was still the first effective attack to succeed.
“Ohhh!”
“It’s done! It’s done!”
“All you have to do is this. Push!”
Cheers filled with hope erupted from everywhere.
however.
Through ‘Sanctuary’ and ‘Eyes of Gluttony’, Jinhyeok’s eyes showed the opponent’s total physical strength.
[1889983555 / 1980000000]
Even after pouring this much, the damage inflicted was only that.
Now you have to make a decision.
That moment.
Currents have changed.
The moment you’ve been waiting for has finally come.
Shootah ….
The reefs in the sea appeared.
Each reef with a different pattern had the characteristic of being able to inflict a fatal blow to the Kraken if destroyed with a specific attack.
at the same time.
The positions of the fleets in the front and the fleets in the middle were changed.
The fleets of the Knights of the Holy Cross moved to the front. The rest of the fleet moved away from the Kraken.
Completely isolated and turned into bait.
“Yeah, I knew it would be like this. You rotten bastard!”
Rotain clenched his fists.
I have been waiting.
Only this moment when you can feed your opponent!
[The holy relic ‘Abel’s skull’ has been used!]
Cain and Abel.
It is a tragic myth made of envy and jealousy.
And the holy relic that makes that myth reappear is the skull of Abel, who was killed by Cain.
[In case of fatal betrayal, change one’s situation with those who caused it.]
Space restraint and material transformation under the protection of Eden.
Whoops!
The ships of the ‘White Pearl’ and the Knights of the Holy Cross have changed once again.
The situation has been completely reversed.
“Puhaha! How dare you use tricks that don’t make sense in front of me. You must not have known that I was looking ahead by several steps ahead of you!”
Laughter filled with madness.
Rotain’s confidence skyrocketed at the thought of being stabbed in the back of the head. He
already knew how Jinhyeok would attack the Kraken. “The analysis of the reefs is over!”
”
I found a combination that can be destroyed by combining elemental magic and holy power!”
Fred and Jaina shouted at the same time
. Instead, you can weaken the Kraken’s defenses,
and if you use another holy relic, ‘Kain’s Stone Knife’, you will undoubtedly produce satisfactory results
. will be secured.’
That’s enough. That
‘s enough.
“So, you guys become the sacrificial lamb for us.”
Kang Jin-hyeok, the deceased corporation, and even a useless saintess who doesn’t obey orders.
The opportunity to eliminate all the troubles at once has arrived. .
