Episode 177 [Berlin, Dark Elf Kingdom – 1]
———————————==
One day, the world suddenly It has become like a ‘game’.
In that endless disaster, humanity hoped for an ending.
But that’s just an old story…
Now that the whole world has adapted to the game and sees it as a new order, talking about the end is starting to be seen as either the old-fashioned values of an old person or the reckless courage of a young person.
“……Let’s see the end of this game.”
In a world that has changed so much, it has been a long time since the ‘end’ was mentioned like this.
No, someone may have said it, but it did not have this much of an impact.
“Yes! “This game is actually abnormal, right?”
“…I forgot, but it has to end someday.”
“And if it’s Stillane, maybe it’s really…”
The ‘end’, spoken of by an overwhelming hero who had already saved the world several times, had a different weight.
“-Okay, let’s finish it!”
Soon someone shouted that and cheers erupted from everywhere.
“That’s right! “We can’t live like this forever!”
“If what you say is true, I will help you too!”
“I can’t let my children live in a world like this!”
Of course, not everyone would agree with Lee Hyun-wook’s opinion, and some would still be jealous of him.
‘But it’s important to have momentum. Now there’s a lot more I can influence.’
From now on, there will be more people who want to join Lee Hyun-wook than those who keep him in check.
Of course, there is the problem of filtering out the villains who come in from hiding…
‘… I can’t put it in the intestines because I’m afraid of the common maggots. does not exist.’
It could be seen that the world’s governance was now under Lee Hyun-wook’s control.
‘But ending those guys doesn’t mean everything will be resolved.’
Sorting out the villains of this world wasn’t really the ‘end.
‘ ‘… Those who killed me in my past life will come back stronger.’
So-called ‘dimensional shifters’….
We had to prepare for their visit now,
otherwise our past life would repeat itself.
***
– A surprising statement after foiling an assassination attempt on Steelein himself… ‘Evil organization’ What is the reality?
– Is a ‘Unified Humanity Army’ created to respond to the ‘Monster Allied Forces’ centered around Steele Rain?
– The world cheered at the actions of ‘Steel Lane’, a heroic declaration following an overwhelming show of force!
In this way, the world cheered Lee Hyun-wook . It was heating up after the ‘declaration’.
And it was encouraging that it was not just a reaction but led to action.
– After Steelein’s speech, players from around the world continued to declare participation in [Titanomachia]
– 121 players from the Russian [Mir07] guild Ming Dispatch Declaration “We support the unity of humanity.”
– Edward Woods’ [Slayers] guild announced that they would begin an advance from Normandy, France tomorrow morning, and
players who had been taking precautions from all over the world lined up to participate in the war after Lee Hyun-wook’s declaration.
They began hunting down the remaining titan hoplites, and the results exceeded their expectations.
– [Interview] How did average level 49 players hunt titan hoplites?
Titan Hoplites, a huge level 110 monster, were considered impossible to deal with unless you were a fairly strong player group. However, after many trials and errors…
– Is it possible to ‘raid’ even if you are not a high level Titan Hoplite? Starting to share strategy…
Even low-level players participated in Titanomachia, speeding up the recovery of Europe.
– UK [Liverpool Raid Research] Statistics “The average level of players participating in Titanomachy increased by 11”
– Giant Slayer? Interest in the growth-type achievements that can be obtained in Titanomachia has increased.
Of course, it was inevitable that a significant number of players were sacrificed in the process, but it was positive that humanity’s power was increasing through this big event.
Lee Hyun-wook also raised the level of the Hope Guild members by leading the Steel Fleet and hunting Titan Hoplites around Germany. The third act of Titanomachia would be held soon, so we had to try to increase our power before that.
And that evening, the South Korean government also officially announced the dispatch of player troops.
– A large-scale Korean military force was dispatched to Europe. A fleet carrying 1,801 AMT troops and 688 civilian guild troops departed.
Among them was the [Jumunnarae] guild that Lee Hyun-wook had been secretly waiting for.
‘…Okay, they showed up on time.’
Lee Seong-yoon and Kang Seo-yoon’s [Zumunnarae] They would have performed a hidden quest to obtain the key to end [Titanomachia]. It was an anti-titan weapon called ‘Hecatoncheires’.
‘With that, we will be able to conquer the final battle of Titanomachia more easily.’
And about two days later, the phenomenon that announced the final chapter of [Titanomachia] finally began.
Go one oh one oh one oh——
Lee Hyun-wook stood at the door of Friedwen’s lamp and looked toward the horizon. A red pillar of light was rising from the southern region in the distance, similar to the phenomenon that signaled the start of the ‘Great Swing’.
But this time… the problem was that the pillars of light were rising from four points at the same time.
‘That means there are a total of four regional flags to occupy this time.’
Lee Hyun-wook knew very well how the end of Titanomachia unfolded.
In fact, this was the reason why the unification of humanity was advocated along with the revelations at this time.
‘A total of four locations must be attacked at the same time. In other words, separation of wires is necessary.’
Therefore, complete victory was only possible if there were four armies that could keep pace with Lee Hyun-wook.
“Boss, that place is said to be in the central part of Greece on the Balkan Peninsula!”
After communicating with someone behind the scenes, Team Leader Lee Jeong-jun reported,
‘More accurately, it is Mount Otris.’
Mount Othrys is the garrison of the Titan gods in Greek mythology.
And it is the stage of the final chapter of [Titanomachia].
At that time –
(!) Quest content has been updated.
[War Quest]
– Titanomachia Finale ‘Siege of Mount Othris’
Through the past several battles, your forces stopped the invasion of the Titans, and
in the end, even the supreme Titans stopped attacking and chose to take a breather.
They gathered at ‘Mount Othris’ and concentrated their forces. It will expand.
You have to stop it to achieve a sure victory, so move forward there!
1) Secure a total of 4 ‘Victory Flags’ for more than 1 hour within 168 hours (in progress)
2) Defeat the boss monsters ‘Kronos’ and ‘Atlas’ Elimination (in progress)
* Reward: Differential payment depending on war ‘achievement’
– Caution! If ‘No. 1’ goal is failed, the morale of the ‘Titans’ soars and their combat power increases significantly. This time, in the
previous Act 2, ‘Great Battle’ It was a great war and a siege that could not be compared to the previous one.
The problem here is that a situation is created in which humanity has no choice but to be on the siege side.
‘That’s as many as 4 places at the same time…’
And as with almost all siege wars, the siege side is at an overwhelming disadvantage. “If this is true
, those bastards are coming together and we have to attack them, right?”
It was Emilia Müller who asked that question. After joining Titanomachy with Donald Harris a few days ago, she had not had any alcohol and was complaining of lethargy because of that.
“Ugh, now the end is in sight… I guess I should prepare for the after party.”
She stretched and got up from the military seat, and Lee Hyun-wook nodded,
“Yes, then… I guess we should get together now.”
Meanwhile, there were some strange men on board the Fridwen, and they were holding cameras.
“Now, Standby, Steele Lane can be broadcasted right now.”
They were none other than war reporters from a French media outlet.
Hyunwook Lee nodded and the camera light came on.
“…For those of you who are fighting across Europe on behalf of humanity, the time has come.”
***
“Aaaah——!”
A man stretched and shouted, his voice echoing from all directions.
“Oh, how long do I have to stay stuck here? I feel like the parrot I had as a child!”
The Hispanic man who kept complaining like that was Villain executive Ricardo Oliveira. He was one of the world’s best red players, known by the nickname ‘Bloodlord’ rather than his real name. He lay on a sunbed with a bored expression, smoking cigars all day, and lying on the floor
. There was a lot of ash.
“But can you stop smoking? “Isn’t it already an enclosed space?”
A woman came next to me and started coughing in frustration.
“Phew, it’s not a cigarette, it’s a cigar, and I’ve been waiting for two weeks already, so this is the last time. And it’s so damn big, so what difference does blowing out a little smoke make? Anne, stop making a fuss.”
He looked at his last cigar with a bitter expression, then raised his head and looked at the ceiling. All he could see was a gray ceiling, gray walls, and a gray floor. “Well, if I don’t smoke this, there’s nothing to do in this cage, so what should I do?
” “It is.”
Yes. This square cube space was not the real world.
It was in a high-dimensional subspace called ‘pocket space’.
In other words, it could be seen that it was now in someone’s pocket.
“…No, I’m afraid that if I keep doing this, I’ll get a debuff like lung disease before I can even use them.”
She lost her temper and gestured around in all directions. There were a lot of iron bars lined up, and inside them, some furry beings were drooling and their red eyes were blinking.
Grrrr…….
They were all ‘werewolves’ and ‘vampires’ that had mutated based on the Blood Lord’s blood. However, even though he was the child of the Blood Lord, the reason he was imprisoned in a cage like that was because his mental abilities were almost excluded and his physical abilities were mutated. To put it simply, he was in a state where not even his parents could recognize him.
“What are we going to do if the smart kids inhale all the cigarette smoke and stop listening to us?”
“Don’t worry later. “But I told you that I taught you an amazing lesson in just ‘asking’?”
In the battle that was about to take place, they would persistently aim for Steele Lane’s neck.
“And Anne, if you get bitten and die, I’ll save you with some of my blood, so don’t make a fuss.”
Ugh.
At that time, a pale light began to flow from the center of the gray ceiling that had been closed.
“Oh, something has finally arrived?”
That was a phenomenon that appeared when something was ‘brought’ into the pocket space from the outside world.
Soon, a man walked within the beam of light and a woman called Anne greeted him.
“It’s a messenger from the Lord Chairman. It is said that Titanomachia has now reached its final stage.”
At those words, Ricardo Oliveira shook his head with an expression of disinterest.
“Huh… aren’t there other stories besides that? Come here, that guy whose name you don’t know.”
Then, the man who came in as a messenger walked cautiously with a stiff expression on his face.
That was because the area was full of monsters with a bloody and bloody smell…
“Yes, Blood Lord, what… are you curious about?”
“Later, I heard that we were robbed in Germany again.”
“Yes, the Hellfire skill worked, but it was a complete failure.”
“That guy gave a great speech and gathered an army of players, right?”
Although it had been over a week since he had been waiting here, he was someone I heard news from time to time.
“Yes… so the situation has become more complicated.”
“Hey then… “Aren’t we going to be destroyed again?”
He took off his sunglasses and got up from the sunbed, and the messenger blinked as if asking what he was saying.
“I’ve had this experience more than once… There was a man in Seoul named Mr. Ki. He was acting like he was going to take care of everything, but in the end, he was defeated by Steele Lane? But I was trapped in this fucking ball in front of Steele Lane. “How can you not be anxious? Huh?”
“…….”
“Did you meet the fucking Chairman recently? “Isn’t that bastard using me as a card to throw away?”
He asked with an annoyed expression. But the messenger boldly shook his head.
“I…I saw it with my own eyes.”
“huh? What do you see? “Say it properly.”
Although he cowered in front of an executive within the organization named Ricardo Oliveira, he was also a person of quite high standing within the villains. He was also a level 68 assassin player.
“The power of the dark elf army gathered there in Green Hell… is truly enormous. If they join this Titanomachy, no matter how many players gather, they will never be able to defeat it.”
He patted my chest as if he was making an assurance and said,
“…even the Dark Elves with an average level of level 58 are around 20,000. And there are 3,000 Black Orc elite troops brought by Black Orc King Stonnox. “There are degrees.”
Ricardo Oliveira’s mouth twitched when he heard those words.
“So, when that bastard, Steele, is busy asking if I should beat up that kid who’s making sand castles, the Titan, the Dark Elf, and the Black Orc… then I can just sneak out and bite the guy’s neck?”
As such, the villains have invested heavily in this big event.
This time, I plan to get rid of Steele Rain and other troublesome troubles all at once…
***
“Ah! Now, this is Mount Othris in central Greece, the final stage of the Titanomachy!”
A man standing against the backdrop of Mount Otri, 1728 meters above sea level, looked at the camera and shouted that. He wore a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses and smiled brightly, as if he were on a hike.
But when he moved a little, he saw black smoke rising from all over Mount Otri.
“And my name is Josh Paul, and I’ll be broadcasting this big event!”
He was a fairly high-level player at level 67 and a famous TV show host in Ireland. But today, as a special correspondent for [Kill the Monster], I was in charge of on-site broadcasting of the upcoming battle.
“The atmosphere here is very strange! It feels like a rock concert venue, an Olympic stadium, and a disaster site!”
It was Josh Paul who packaged such a fateful moment so cheaply, and that was why he was so popular. As these disasters were repeated over a dozen years and became a daily occurrence, even the average viewer preferred to tell it lightly like entertainment rather than telling it as a tragedy. “ Oh
! Is that famous DS coming over there? Actually… DS must have had a lot to worry about, right? Ugh, I guess it’s coming to a war led by Steelaine who broke him.”
Then, helicopters appeared one by one from all over the world.
Doo doo doo doo——
Each time, Josh Paul skillfully explained who was in the helicopter.
“Doesn’t this situation feel like superstars showing up in limousines at an awards ceremony?”
He chuckled and continued to make a lame joke about having to set up a photo zone.
Anyway, other human players with high morale were gathering there. Those who had already defeated the Titan several times and had gained a lot of confidence and level were jumping into the final battle. And
then AMTs from all over the world set up a blockade surrounding Mount Otris.
But then…
“Oh! Look over there! In fact, Steelein, the great hero who gave birth to this ‘Unified Humanity Army’, has arrived!”
A group of about a dozen airships slowly approaching from the northern sky… That’s where everyone’s eyes turned.
“Wow, it’s more dazzling than any hero’s appearance, and it’s literally like a king’s parade!”
And with Donald Harris’s airship ‘Teseus Ship’ mixed in with dozens of large helicopters with Wight Tree Guards, the size was so huge that it felt like a fleet. When he appeared, the ROK AMT troops who were on the scene first were busy
. The commander of that force was General Choi Jeong-cheol, who was performing the duties of acting commander of the Seoul Operation Command in place of Commander Jeong Sang-sik, who had been transferred after the last ‘clean-up’, and was scheduled to be officially appointed soon. Meanwhile, the Titanomachy troops were
dispatched .
It was decided that he would become Woo Seong-moon’s closest aide.
Woo-woo—
The moment the Iron Fleet’s flagship Fridwen landed on the ground, ROK AMT forces approached and surrounded him with a magic shield. There had already been several assassination attempts targeting him, so everything was safe. And the person leading the AMT troops was none other than a very familiar face, Colonel Kim Kang-seok.
“
Lee Hyun-wook… It’s hard to believe that the commander of humanity was once my soldier. “I think I was in charge of shutting down the kobold dungeon that appeared in downtown Seoul not too long ago, haha.”
The two shook hands and felt a sense of change in the times ahead.
However, bad news was delivered that instantly destroyed the friendly atmosphere.
“…News from the western surveillance, Captain!”
A female soldier wearing the ROK AMT captain rank insignia ran over and held out a tablet PC to Kim Kang-seok.
“It’s a hilly area 11km west of here.”
There….
“They say they are all presumed to be the Dark Elf army.”
A huge number of dark elf legions were appearing from a very large portal.
“It appears that the Titans and the Dark Elves have joined hands, as expected.”
The observation results were shared by all player groups, and murmurs spread everywhere:
“Damn, they’re all monsters?”
“…isn’t it the real military itself?”
“Huh, it must be hard to deal with just that one…”
All the players who saw the scene let out dejected words.
It was analyzed that it would not be easy to even attack hundreds of titan legions.
“omg!”
Then, another legion joined the scene, and sighs came from all around.
“Even the Black Orcs…”
The Orc King Stonox, who had gone missing in Shanghai, China, appeared with his royal guard.
In other words, the Titan Legion, Dark Elf Legion, and Black Orc Legion were stationed nearby.
Even though Lee Hyun-wook had already warned, he Seeing the scene in person felt completely different.
“…Have we gathered enough people?”
“That’s right. Don’t you need more?”
Those who had been highly inspired by the victory reports of the past few days faced reality.
Soon, commanders of each group gathered from various places and held an emergency meeting. Perhaps one
group might regret its courageous participation in the war and decide to retreat.
In the gloomy atmosphere, only the three of me and Lee Hyun-wook’s group felt a slightly different sentiment.
“…Boss, is it time now?”
Kim Se-hee came up behind Lee Hyun-wook and whispered, and Lee Hyun-wook nodded.
‘As expected, a huge number of dark elf troops have come to support us.’
That meant that the Dark Elf Kingdom had become a so-called ’empty house’…
‘Now… it’s time to steal the whole kingdom.’
