Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 195
64. Elephant (3)
‘Five…?’
The number of elephants was greater than expected.
Love twitched her eyebrows for a moment.
He gave orders to the prepared inspection team by pinging them one after another.
Ting!
[Attack after descent]
The inspection unit began running to the command point.
The running speed is somewhat disturbing.
It could be that I didn’t understand the timing correctly.
Probably because of lack of experience.
Persia was famous for not using elephants in scrimmages to avoid getting used to them.
Of course, we’ve seen each other a few times in individual ranked matches, but this is the first time we’ve encountered each other in a competition setting.
‘Still.’
Love bit her lips tightly.
‘Aren’t you hesitating too much?’
Teeeeee!
Teeing!
[Descent and stab the elephant in the back]
[Descent now]
Series of commands.
The inspection team finally understood correctly and started running at full speed.
In fact, it wasn’t that much of a delay in terms of absolute time.
Delay of about 2 seconds at most.
However, in a war situation like this, two seconds can be a turning point where dozens of lives can be lost.
In particular, if the enemy is executing orders with only a 0.1 second delay, the difference continues to widen.
The enemies are completely united under their commander.
‘How long will it take… for something like that to happen?’
Of course, the Joseon soldiers did not intentionally create a delay.
This happens reflexively because they are thinking people.
However, it is also problematic to ask people to erase all their thoughts.
Civil M involves more tasks that must be judged and handled immediately on the spot.
If they really have no idea, they can’t lead the battle.
‘In the first place, Cookie left a lot of things up to on-site judgment.’
Cookie knew exactly what each Joseon soldier was thinking and was able to give orders taking that into account.
‘I wouldn’t be able to do it.’
But love can’t do that.
It wasn’t a question of ability. The question is how much time has been spent running with them.
An insurmountable problem that can only be solved by turning back time.
Nevertheless, the inspection team rushed to the place where they were ordered and attempted to carry out her orders.
But—
“!”
──Quaaaaaaa!
The elephant has already destroyed the castle wall.
The entire inspection team that arrived there a few steps late and attempted to attack disappeared into ruins of the castle wall.
“Ha….”
Tak.
Love touches my forehead without me even realizing it.
It would have been perfect timing if he had been able to jump on the elephant before the castle wall collapsed.
The delay in executing the order ended up giving the enemy perfect timing.
Many soldiers disappeared in vain.
You can hear the cheers of the enemy team’s spectators and the sighs of the Korean spectators.
“Aaaah! This castle wall was a huge hit!? The wall collapsed and we all fainted! “You’re actually dead!?”
“Is this because elephants are scary!? this! “They all suddenly die!!”
As the elephant passed by, they were all naturally trampled to death.
There was no way to avoid it since it was a fainting verdict.
Elephants are scary because they have strong stats.
This unexpected jackpot or hit will happen.
-I feel like I’m seeing a huge hit in Minecraft
-Why are you like thisㅠㅠ
-No, what if I send it over there at that timing ?
-ㅁㅊ
-I guess I didn’t make the assumption at allㅠㅠ
-Evande -I have to aim for the biggest elephant in the
room when something like this happens hahaha
“Ah… this game isn’t easy. . “A big mistake was made.”
“But when the elephant falls! You can even aim for the biggest win!? Don’t give up just yet! Shipbuilding!”
When an elephant falls, it usually falls towards its allies.
If you can’t avoid it, even if you are an ally, you will be crushed to death.
Elephants are difficult creatures in many ways, both from the perspective of handling and dealing with them.
-JJ~
-From the moment the story of the biggest hit came up
, they lost -In the end, they are aiming for
the biggest hit lol
-Elephant is aiming for the biggest hit ever.
From the moment these words came out, it was said that the elephant had already lost.
Because it literally means relying on a miracle.
But love decided to bet on this miracle.
I thought it was a commander-like decision to do so.
‘I have to show it to you first.’
Teeing.
[Attack]
She spots a soldier on the castle wall and gives an order.
‘What can I do?’
* * *
Puuuuuuu—!
Sanghyun thought of this as he watched the fearsome elephant advance.
Coach read a lot of books.
In particular, I remember that he read countless books about human psychology and thinking because he thought his job was to deal with people.
Then, if he came across a good phrase or something he realized, he would always pass it on to the team.
Thanks to this, Coach’s nickname at one point was ‘Quote Manufacturer.’
Of course, this is an official nickname, and the nicknames used with kids have a slightly different nuance.
Among the countless famous sayings, there was one that the coach always said whenever he went to a competition.
“Don’t think about the elephant.”
He would stop the children, hold their backs, and look down solemnly.
“Then you have no choice but to think of elephants.”
“….”
“The human brain does not know negativity.”
It was a story about the tension right before the competition.
“So don’t be nervous… it’s no use telling you.”
tension.
In archery, a battle against yourself, you were your biggest enemy.
The people gathered here were theoretically capable of shooting all arrows in the center.
But why can’t we do that?
The coach probably thought the reason was a mental issue.
“It’s okay to be nervous. You can also think of an elephant. Instead, we learn how to hunt elephants.”
The reason these words come to mind now is probably because Sanghyeon received this order.
[Attack]
Attack command.
There is a high probability that this is an order received only by one person.
There are very few soldiers left on this broken wall, and they are far away from each other.
In other words, it is an attack command that is carried out alone.
It was also an attack command directed at the opponent’s giant elephant.
The Joseon main camp is in a desperate situation as its front is breached by elephants.
If you jump in here and die, you will be held accountable.
I feel a sense of burden. This is where the tension begins.
It’s okay though.
Because he learned how to hunt elephants from his coach.
If you can’t do this, the coach taught you wrongly.
‘Hey. ‘That elephant isn’t that elephant?!’
A strange screaming sound echoed in my mind, but I didn’t care.
Almond believed the teachings he had received and ran away.
I put the bow aside, hung it behind me, and launched myself toward the place where the first ping was made.
[Melee weapon]
Percussion.
I picked up the sword that fell on the castle wall.
‘I guess they told me to catch this because long-distance damage doesn’t work on elephants.’
It will be clear why you need this sword. The person giving orders now is as trustworthy as a cookie.
The problem is that the commander cannot even solve the hardships required to carry out orders.
“There’s one on the wall!”
Five or six people can climb on top of an elephant like a defense tower and shoot arrows.
The enemies had discovered the almonds. Almond was only slightly higher than their eye level, so their eyes met.
“It’s almonds!”
“Amond!?”
One of them even recognized him and started shooting with an arrow.
As expected of a Persian archer, he was an amazing speaker.
Kagang!
“!?”
Almond easily struck down the speaker with his sword and ran away.
ping!
[Shield]
A ping is placed on the side of the shield that fell.
Are you saying pick it up?
widely.
I picked up a shield that had fallen on the ground and lifted it up.
Burbubbubbuk!
In an instant, the arrow was stuck.
Almost all of the archers riding on different elephants fired at once.
It was impossible to stop with a sword.
‘oh.’
He quietly admired and carried out the next command.
[Descent]
Run straight and jump down the castle wall.
Percussion—
His body flew through the sky for a moment and landed on the elephant’s back.
thud.
“Ahh!”
“what!?”
There are five enemies.
I jumped into the middle of it.
But these were all archers.
Rather, this was safer.
The problem lies with the other elephant.
At that time, a red ping is displayed.
Ting!
[Caution]
It’s a Persian archer on an elephant right next to you. Almond raised his shield.
Empty!
Feeling the vibration coming from outside the shield, Almond switches between offense and defense.
Instantly lift the shield to the left and cut with the sword in your right hand.
This is a Persian archer right next to me.
Sigh—
Red blood lines are drawn to the side, and the bow falls and rolls.
Afterwards, the sword moves forward and cuts the opponent once more.
──Chuck!
This time, the opponent’s head falls and rolls.
The archers had no way to do anything about Almond, who had become very close.
“Stop it!”
I tried to rush in and rub myself.
Teuong!
Almond doesn’t give them a chance and pushes them away with his shield, digging in closer.
“Ugh!?”
I swung my sword to the right.
Sigh!
It’s half water and half meat.
Another one loses his grip and falls to the bottom.
‘There are three left.’
Teeing!
[Caution]
There is a ping in the distance.
Aiming for almonds.
‘The distance…’
It was a distance where I had no choice but to aim for an angle where I shot high and then fell.
Almond roughly raises a shield to cover his head.
Tung…!
“I’m dying!”
Meanwhile, the archer behind him charges in, holding an arrow like a dagger.
Almond bows and swings his sword downwards.
The soldier whose leg was cut off lost his balance for a moment and his body flew. Almond stands up again and strikes him in the abdomen with his shield.
Empty!
He bounced further with the acceleration and fell under the elephant.
“Kwaaaaaa….”
Teeing.
Another warning sound was heard.
[Caution]
Almond turned his shield to the right this time.
puck!
The arrows hit each other exactly as if they were hit together.
“!?”
The Persian soldier on the other elephant who shot the arrow looked dumbfounded. This is because he does not know that there is a [Caution] sign above his head.
Sigh!
In the meantime, one more person cut up the almonds and put them away.
‘one.’
There is now only one soldier left on the elephant he rode on.
To begin with, they were archers, so there was no way to properly deal with the melee soldiers digging in this much.
Sigh!
Wow!
The remaining one was also mercilessly cut off and pushed off the elephant.
Meanwhile, the elephant was advancing towards the village hall at the center of Joseon’s headquarters.
[Attack]
This attack ping, which was first recorded, is still stamped on the elephant.
The command was not carried out.
‘It has to be stopped. Melee attacks work on elephants.’
Almond holds the sword back and slams it into the elephant’s back.
Phew!
Puuuuuuuuuuuu!
The elephant shook its head a few times as if screeching, but its speed into the hall only increased.
It didn’t seem like there was any significant damage.
[Elephant hit judgment: The larger the cutting area, the more damage]
This was a message rather than an order from the commander.
He taught Almond how to fight.
It meant that the commander was paying attention to every move here. In other words, this fight will decide the fate of the entire Joseon Dynasty.
Uuuuuung…!
The path drawn by the commander was shining.
‘road?’
I wondered for a moment what this meant.
Almond pulled out the stuck sword again and jumped onto the elephant’s head.
A road was drawn there.
“Sigh!”
Phew!
His sword penetrates into the skin of the elephant’s head.
Puuuuuuuuuuuu!
The elephant roars louder this time and raises its front paw.
Almond’s balance suddenly shifted backwards and he had to hold on to the knife he had stabbed.
Boom──
After a moment, the elephant’s front paw touches the ground again.
Almond struck down all the arrows on his shield with his sword.
Patter.
He threw the shield, which had become smooth again, over the elephant’s head and climbed on top of it.
It goes straight downhill.
Almond grabbed the stuck knife.
Chiiik─
The shield slides like a board and receives acceleration.
From the head to the bridge of the nose and the tip of the nose.
We descended following the path drawn by the commander.
Almond did not miss the knife.
The rock-like gray flesh split into red along the shining path.
──Chaaaaaaaaaa!
Damage is calculated based on the area cut. Almonds have now cut down about 1/3 of the elephant.
Puuuuuuu…!
The elephant began to sway at a level of tilt I had never seen before.
‘done!’
He learned how to hunt elephants here too.
‘You idiot. So you’re saying it’s not the elephant?’
It seemed like I could hear the coach’s lament.
Almond just grinned.
Clouds of dust rose like a fountain behind him as he smiled.
Coooooo!
