Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 156
52. Gungan Palace (3)
When it was revealed that Almond was not an archer, an uproar broke out even in the community.
[Huh? Hahaha, weren’t they archers??]
[???: I’m not an archer]
[The first match class in the finals was crazy haha]
[Pseudo-Valhalla vs. pseudo-archers]
The Joseon archers took their positions and shot curve shots as a group, making people think they were dead. The Vikings we knew rise again, and Almond, the archer leader, is not an archer.
This situation, with its repeated twists and turns, clearly showed the importance of the first game of the finals.
[This is the first match in the finals, so both sides are fighting all-out strategy haha]
[Cookie: I didn’t know what they would like, so I prepared everything~]
[This is the best match ever]
There were matches by other civilizations, but some said that this final match was the best match ever.
It was a fight that showed that both civilizations had prepared a lot.
In particular, the way Joseon, which had the choice of map, continued to show reversals and push forward left a significant impression.
[Is this really how Chosun will win one game?]
[No, are you really going to Joseon?]
[Because they’re going to the round of 16~~]
I thought Chosun would fall quickly in the finals.
Since he showed considerable skill from the first game, many people had high hopes.
-Hope to suck the map selection ㄴ
└What does it have to do with the map saying I’m not an archer? LOL
└Who doesn’t know that? Don’t ruin the mood, you idiot.
They
knew it too.
We are currently winning the game due to our map selection advantage.
But I decided to have hope.
-In the first place, there were many comments from overseas public opinion that map selection was of little significance. It’s skill that made it this far
└ㄹㅇ
└That’s right hahaha
└The map is always changing in the first place haha ㅇㅈ
Joseon’s ability to analyze map options and improve this strategy is also skill.
So, will that skill be the basis for ending this game with a win and winning the next game as well?
I don’t know, but they decided to believe it.
[Wow hahaha in the end he goes back to the valley and kills him hahaha, legend ㅅㅂㅋㅋㅋ]
[Viking commander’s expression hahaha]
[Wow crazy hahaha]
Did that feeling come through?
Almond, who survived, went back to the valley, killed the Viking, and began to run away.
With this alone, the Vikings were bound to fall into great confusion.
We need to go immediately to prevent resources from being stolen, but there is one remnant left behind and continues to cause damage.
If you move your entire army at will, you will have to run while getting hit by arrows one after another in the back of the head.
However, when I went to catch it, it ran away too quickly.
“almond! almond! “I killed him again!”
“Let’s run away again!? “I’m not an archer!?”
The moment the Viking turned back, Almond immediately ran away.
Additionally, time was delayed and resource losses continued.
The spectators on the Joseon side were absolutely crazy.
“Waaaaaa! Crazy! run! “Run!”
Bubble Gum screamed loudly without noticing that the popcorn was falling.
Some spectators spilled all their beer and got their clothes wet. But I didn’t care.
“Run!”
This is where the starting point of victory will be determined.
“Keep taking time! Waaagh!!”
“Crazy…”
Not only were there simple shouts, but the sound of drums also rang out loudly.
Bang bang bang! bang! bang!
“Dear love, love the Republic of Korea!”
* * *
“Huh… huh…”
The sound of cheering coming from afar.
It even slightly reached Almond’s ears.
But he didn’t even look towards the audience.
‘Just jump…’
Now the Vikings come running from behind with lights in their eyes.
The moment the distance narrows, Almond, who only has the specs of a barbarian soldier, dies instantly.
“Kill me!”
“Hooooooooo!”
“Horororororo!”
Although he was shouting as if there were a lot of people, he could tell at first glance through his sensitive senses realized by the high concentration of VNS.
‘I only sent three.’
We did not overinvest in small amounts of almonds.
The intention is to send only three to drive out Almond and send the rest to defend the hunting post.
You shouldn’t send the main force here. We still need to take more time.
‘Then─’
──Percussion!
At that moment, he instantly turned to the right and disappeared into the grass.
“Yohooooooooo!”
“Hororororororoll!”
“There… huh?”
Three Vikings chasing after them while making loud noises.
At some point, they realized that the almonds were gone.
“…shit. “I missed it.”
“I have no choice but to miss it. “Because he’s faster.”
“Are they targeting us?”
chuck.
They raised their shields on three sides and stood guard.
If Almond has disappeared out of sight, there is a high probability that it has settled down somewhere to target the chase team.
However, no matter how cautious you were for a long time, only the cheers of the audience could be heard.
Nothing happened.
“….”
“shit. We’ve seen it! “Go back!”
* * *
Crash.
After Almond entered the bush, he started running towards the main unit.
Peeing.
[Viking main unit]
Cookie took a picture of the location of the Viking main unit.
He noticed that Almond had changed direction and is assisting him as a commander.
“Haa…haa….”
Almond was getting more and more out of breath, but he didn’t care and ran.
Sssssssseu!
Numerous bushes roughly scraped past the body, and soon the footprints of the Viking main force were visible.
‘It’s been a while since it passed.’
Not long after it was pressed down, the soil could be seen recovering.
The mountain path is complicated and twisted, so it is just not visible.
The Vikings were around here.
Almond put his ear to the ground to gauge their location.
thud. thud. thud. thud.
It was hard to hear because it was buried by the sound of my own heart, but after waiting for a while, I could hear it little by little.
‘Vikings are slow if they can’t see the enemy. I can catch up.’
The Viking warmongering faction increases movement speed only when the enemy is visible.
Otherwise, it is much slower than the Joseon army in mountainous terrain.
If Almond maintains top speed, he is sure to catch up.
The enemies are not far away now.
Almond checks the quiver.
‘How many?’
I didn’t have many arrows because I was running so hard and spilling my quiver.
In the first place, the quiver contained only 10 arrows. Since it is infinite for archers anyway, I don’t add much.
So Almond’s remaining arrows are…
’12.’
With this, we had to stop the main Viking force of over 50 people.
Is that possible?
The normal method won’t work.
Simply calculating it with math is not enough.
Still, Almond decided to go first.
[Stop it]
Since Cookie’s ping was being recorded, they probably decided that it was possible.
‘There must be a way.’
Almond thought so and followed behind his enemies.
* * *
Cookie was puzzled when she saw Almond’s movements.
‘uh?’
Almond is approaching the main unit.
So far, it was just as he intended. The problem is the direction.
Almond was closing in behind them.
‘If you do this, you won’t attract aggro at all.’
The order to [block] Almond was to draw their attention and slow their advance.
So, I’m not saying to shoot and kill from a place you can’t see, but to get attention from a place you can see and run away repeatedly.
Isn’t that why they didn’t even convert them to archers?
But now Almond’s approach was to kill them one by one, starting from behind.
‘It’s much more difficult.’
One way is to distract them from the front, and the other is to assassinate them one by one from behind.
Of course, the latter is more difficult.
If the enemy decides to run away, it may not be stopped.
‘hmm.’
Cookie wondered if she should change this command, but decided against it.
When it comes to battle, his method is to first trust his judgment on the spot.
Instead, he began to prepare a strategy in case Almond failed to stop him at all.
* * *
Sreuk.
When I remove a bush, I can see the Viking below.
‘at las.’
A strange look appeared in Almond’s eyes.
After running for a while, we have now caught up with the main force.
The land is even higher here.
It is a perfect condition that was not intended at all.
‘I don’t even need a curve.’
The back of a Viking’s head that hits a straight line.
Although he was still moving, it was still worth a look.
He took a breath and slowly pulled the bowstring.
Kiririk.
‘3 seconds.’
After waiting until the light of concentration burns to its maximum.
’11 shots.’
I repeat the number of arrows remaining and release the bowstring.
Pang──
The arrow passes through the bushes and flies, making a sharp sound.
──Phew!
A Viking falls down, clutching the back of his neck.
The Vikings in the rear row stopped.
Since the shot was fired from behind, the rear reacted.
“uh?”
“what!?”
“There’s an ambush here!”
They seemed to have decided that there was an ambush.
It was worth it.
Can you imagine Almond following alone and shooting an arrow?
‘one more.’
Almond decides that his location has not yet been discovered, so he pulls the bowstring again.
Kiririk.
The protest is tense and white light blooms.
’10 shots.’
After taking a deep breath for 3 seconds.
Let go of the protest.
Sreuk─
Another Viking fell in Lilith, which was as quiet as a ghost.
──Phew!
This time with an arrow stuck deep in the eye.
“Over there!”
One Viking shouted, pointing exactly in the direction where the almonds were.
‘oh.’
The location was discovered in just two steps.
But it was the sea I had hoped for.
If aggro is attracted in this direction, time will be taken.
‘When it comes, give it another shot.’
Almond thinks so and points an arrow at the arrow.
“for a moment!”
Someone stops those who try to follow this way.
“Defending the guard post comes first! If you don’t chase it, it won’t——”
──Boom!
An arrow lands in the chin of the Viking who was speaking.
Unfortunately, it didn’t go down in one hit.
This is because I shot without fully concentrating.
The arrow this time was simply to block the mouth.
There was no choice but to waste arrows in order to kill them as quickly as possible.
If you don’t die in one hit, how do you kill him quickly?
All you have to do is fire two shots.
──Sigh!
“Oops!”
He collapsed without being able to finish his sentence.
He died for the sin of making the right decision.
The speed at which two feet were planted in succession was faster than waiting for three seconds.
No, it was actually an instant.
“What, two feet!?”
‘Nine shots.’
Tsk.
Instead, I savor the almonds as if I were disappointed as the arrows quickly dwindled.
“This is an ambush!”
“Deal with it!!”
chuck.
The Vikings surrounded each other with shields.
And then some Vikings run to where Almond is and throw away their axes.
With surprising accuracy, I took a picture of the area under my feet where the almonds were.
thud!
Of course, Almond had already left.
Ride, ride!
“phew.”
Thinking that he would have been hit by an ax on his foot, Almond turned and ran towards the front line of the enemies.
‘It’s mountainous terrain, so it’s better to chase from above.’
The rugged mountain valley map was a mountain itself.
The map has a huge difference in height, so you have to go up and down countless stairs to move 50 meters.
Now the Vikings are going down this mountain.
In other words, if you take advantage of the terrain well, Almond can continue shooting from above without descending as far as they did.
‘If this happens, it might really work.’
If this happens, I might actually be able to deal with 50 on my own.
‘I can’t believe you even took this into consideration.’
Almond was once again impressed by Cookie’s perfect strategy. He had forgotten that the detailed terrain of the map changes every time.
In any case, like a ghost, he came to the high ground where he could clearly see the enemy’s front line.
‘There it is.’
I settled down in the bushes and pulled the bowstring.
The Vikings at the front seemed to be ignoring the situation behind them or just kept going down the mountain quickly.
Until I heard the sound of a bow being fired.
‘Eight shots.’
Piyung!
One of the Vikings going down from the front collapses.
thud…!
“Ugh!?”
Then the Vikings who were following behind tripped and fell, and no one was able to move forward.
The Vikings all paused for a moment.
What is noteworthy here is that Vikings do not use helmets or anything else until the 2nd era.
Thanks to this, the numerous crowns of the head were visible to Almond’s eyes.
“Oh…”
This was no different from a buffet prepared for the archer.
