I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game Chapter 254

◈ 254. [STAGE 10]

A few days after the night of the full moon. Afternoon hours past noon.

Standing on top of the castle wall, I swallowed a dry saliva.

Finally, the day of Stage 10 came.

Normal defense battles are also tense, but today is the boss stage. It’s natural to be more nervous.

‘It looks like it will be easier than I thought.’

It reminded me of the vampire corps that popped up in stage 5.

They were sluts with fucking gimmicks and terrifying strength.

The Werewolf Corps was also formidable in terms of strength, but it is true that the Vampire Corps was a more fucked-up opponent.

Did they come back to life when they died?

In addition, the dark event did not occur due to the penalty for the invasion of the werewolf corps in the last stage 9.

In addition to that, according to Ader, several more penalties were imposed on the Werewolf Corps.

They probably have lower specs than the werewolves I’ve been dealing with in the game.

‘It’s good enough.’

I glanced around the top of the castle wall.

Various water-based weapons and artifacts densely packed, soldiers wearing good armor and good weapons, and even dozens of heroic characters ready for battle.

Confidence soared. I nodded in satisfaction.

“They are coming!”

Then the skirmisher shouted loudly. I lifted my telescope and looked at the southern plains.

thud! thud! thud!

Hundreds of werewolves appeared across the plain, stomping their feet and raising clouds of dust.

I shuddered. You’re coming, you monsters!

[Enemy Information – STAGE 10]

– Lv.? ??? : 1

number is exactly 700

. He stretched out his hand sideways.

Then, the soldiers attached themselves to the ballistas and prepared to fire in unison.

When they came closer, I was thinking of filling their mouths with crossfire, a specialty of Crossroads.

But

boom! thud! thud… !

The Werewolves, who had been advancing in formation, suddenly stopped advancing.

It was exactly out of range of our artillery. They stopped advancing and continued to walk in place.

Time passes quietly, raising only clouds of dust around the pack of werewolves.

Our artillerymen broke into a cold sweat. Embarrassed, I narrowed my eyes. what are they doing

‘Could it be the nigawa tactic… … ?’

What is ‘Nigawa’?

In other words, ‘you come’.

It is a tactic that waits for the opponent to release the defense and attack while only checking from a distance.

To fight on a battlefield that is more advantageous to oneself.

In a defense game, it can be said that it is the stance I, the player, always take.

Are you that good at fighting?! Follow me to the wall! It feels the same.

… But now, on the contrary, those wolves are camped on the plains and are protesting, ‘If you want to kill us, release your defenses and come out to the plains’.

If it were a normal monster army, it would attack the nearest human right away, but these were the Werewolves, which are under the direct control of the Nightmare Corps commander and have high individual intelligence.

That’s why things like this are possible.

‘He’s laughing so hard.’

I laughed out loud. Do you think I will go out?

There was a clear time limit in the game, so I had to go out to the plains and beat them while shedding bloody tears.

Of course there is no time limit here.

Besides, this side had the overwhelming advantage of the castle walls and water-based weapons.

Why should I give up my home ground advantage and match your numbers?

I picked up my telescope and looked at them. In the clouds of dust rising, I saw four gigantic white werewolves and a werewolf with silvery red mane sitting on a chair between them.

Luna Red.

The Wolf King, who met my eyes, gave me a cruel grin and wiggled his finger at me.

As if to come out here.

My eyebrows twitched.

‘That bastard?’

Before long, Lunared was hidden from view by the thick dust clouds raised by the werewolves’ stomping.

I gnashed my teeth and put the telescope away.

‘Even if I die soon, you bastards won’t go out!’

I’ll wait for days and months! you guys come in!

***

It is night.

thud! thud! thud!

Those damn wolf pups just keep stamping their feet without really advancing an inch.

I wondered if they would move at night since they were werewolves who received buffs when they received moonlight.

Not at all. They were still motionless, their faces brightened by the moonlight. What are you doing Shivral!

Maybe it’s because they have tremendous natural healing power and their resilience rises when exposed to the moonlight. Even through the night, the werewolves still look lively.

On the other hand, our soldiers on the wall were already exhausted.

That’s right. The wolves kept stomping their feet as if they were going to attack at any moment, inducing tension on this side, but they didn’t actually attack.

For more than half a day, his mental strength and stamina were consumed in preparation for battle.

The condition of our soldiers has deteriorated noticeably.

“This is the first time I’ve seen monsters move like this… … .”

“That’s right. I always attacked as fast as possible with the shortest distance. I can’t believe it’s wasting time and consuming this side’s stamina.”

In agreement with my words, Chin Lucas narrowed his eyes and added.

“It feels like we are at war with humans.”

“… .”

I kept my mouth shut. Goosebumps spread down his spine belatedly.

In any case, we couldn’t let the soldiers suffer all night.

I divided the soldiers into two groups and instructed them to take turns resting.

The same goes for the hero party members. At all, they spread until I called and told them to go to sleep.

It’s the most important power, so you have to keep your stamina.

After going into the simple inn and sleeping or watching my colleagues squatting on the top of the castle wall to rest, I put my back on the chair and continued to stare at the enemy camp.

thud! thud! thud!

Werewolves stamping their feet in an orderly manner under the moonlight.

How long are you going to be doing that?

Is your goal to dry us to death? Or do you really want us to come out of our defenses and attack you guys?

‘What the hell are you thinking, Lunared… !’

***

… The night passes and the dawn breaks. beyond by morning.

It was afternoon again. A full day has passed since they first appeared.

Citizens began to tremble with anxiety at the unprecedented situation in which the monsters were not eliminated for over a day.

This is because the defense battles in the city did not last more than a day no matter what happened.

Plus, they stamp their feet all day and make noise.

Citizens were uneasy, and many inquiries came in asking if it was okay to stay in the shelter like in the last defense battle.

A shelter built outside the northern wall of the city would be more advantageous for survival in case of emergency, as it has several emergency facilities built.

I announced that citizens who wished could go to the shelter.

Then, more than half of the citizens packed up and entered the shelter. What is safety first?

thud! thud! thud!

The mad wolves were still stomping their feet raising dust, and the soldiers on the ramparts had somehow adapted to the situation.

The soldiers took turns going back to the barracks to rest.

In the process, they went to the smithy to leave equipment that needed repair, and the heroes disappeared one by one under the castle wall to do their own business.

got loose

got loose

But you can’t blame the soldiers and heroes either.

What can I do because those fucking wolf cubs don’t show any signs of attacking.

It would be more efficient to rest moderately and fight back when they come, than to remain tense and collapse from exhaustion when they attack.

“majesty. I will take care of the seriously ill patients in the temple.”

“Oh me too. I’ll stop by the alchemy workshop and check the shelter situation for a while before returning.”

Marherita and Lily came to me and said: I readily nodded.

The 5-member party of these two and three auxiliary heroes is the last of the reserves.

Even if the wolves start marching again, they just need to join the wall at least a little later.

And these two had previously been responsible for the construction and maintenance of the shelter.

You might want to see the current situation where residents are staying in shelters longer than expected.

“Come see what you have to do. If something happens, I’ll shoot a flare, so join me right away.”

“Your Highness.”

“I’m coming! Cheer up everyone!”

Marherita and Lily’s party of 5 disappeared under the wall.

Besides that, I yawned for a long time while watching the soldiers and heroes going up and down the wall.

“It stretches… .”

***

The sun began to set over the east. It’s night soon.

This time, looking at the western sky on the other side, I saw a round moon rising.

full moon.

It is full moon.

“… .”

thud! thud! thud!

Is it an illusion? As the full moon rose, the sound of the wolves stomping seemed to grow stronger.

And then

aww!

woo woo woo-!

All of a sudden, all of them turned their mouths to the sky and howled.

The howling of hundreds of werewolves filled the wide plain.

The soldiers on the wall who were dozing off were startled and raised their bodies.

I swallowed dry saliva.

‘Did I wait for the full moon instead of Nigawa?’

Werewolves are basically buffed by moonlight, and the effect is maximized on a full moon night.

If they said they waited for the full moon to rise, that would explain their eccentricity during the day yesterday.

It must have been waiting for the strongest possible buff.

‘under!’

It was funny and I snorted.

Whether it’s the day before the full moon or the day of the full moon, no matter how powerful the buff is, you won’t become invincible.

At best, it’s just a little faster and a little more ferocious.

It’s the same to be torn apart in front of the crossfire on this side.

‘Stop fucking and come quickly! I’ll beat them all to death!’

I lifted my telescope and inspected their camp. I couldn’t look at it after the sun went down, so I was going to look at it one last time.

“Chit.”

But the clouds of dust they raised by rolling their feet were so thick that I couldn’t see anything.

In particular, except for the first time Lunared was seen, he hadn’t been captured after that.

As if they had slipped out of their camp… … .

“… ?”

I got goosebumps at that moment.

widely!

Throwing the telescope to the floor, I put my hand on my forehead. Wait a minute.

Why do they stomp their feet and howl loudly?

I thought it was to make our soldiers nervous and exhausted. But what if not?

‘What if it’s to draw attention to themselves?’

Why did they try to draw attention to themselves? Of course, to hide ‘something else’.

What are they trying to hide?

‘Seongdonggyukseo (聲東擊西).’

Disperse the enemy’s gaze and hit the other side- I came up with the basics of strategy.

What if the detached unit was dispatched in the gap hidden by the night noise and dust clouds while the main body of them noisily drew attention?

‘But where are they sending the detached team? The monsters only attack the southern wall of the Cross Road anyway… … .’

Without thinking, I opened my eyes.

It was only then that I realized that there was a gap in my thinking.

‘Why did I assume that they would only attack the ‘southern wall’ of Crossroads?’

In front of the southern wall of the cross road is a plain area.

On the other hand, the eastern and western walls are swampy, and the northern walls are mountainous.

Due to this topographical feature and the distance issue from the Lake Kingdom dungeon, monsters who wanted to kill humans in the shortest distance always attacked the southern wall.

The same goes for games. In the first place, the northeast and west walls were not even managed in the game.

Defensive battles are fought only at the southern wall.

But this is reality.

And if you’re a werewolf with no match for cleverness, there’s a good chance that you’ll pass through a swamp, cross a mountain, and attack another weakly defended castle by taking a detour… … !

“… wait for a sec.”

And then the thought went crazy.

shelter.

It was built in case of Jormungand’s advance… … It is outside the northern wall.

If the Werewolf Corps really dispatched a detached unit.

And if a detached group of them crashes into the shelter-

“What the fuck.”

There is no certainty. But I had a hunch.

I exclaimed urgently.

“Strengthening the borders of the East Gate, the West Gate, and the North Gate! Send dispatches to the shelter outside the North Gate!”

“yes?”

I yelled at Lucas who asked back in surprise.

“Tell everyone to come inside the walls! hurry-!”

***

Northeast of Crossroads. shelter.

“Why are these monsters taking so long, Lily?”

Lily smiled and answered a citizen who was anxious.

“Do not worry. Our army will wipe it out soon anyway. You can sleep here for one more day.”

“How can you be anxious? It’s been 20 years since I’ve lived here, and I’ve never seen monsters that procrastinate like that?”

“haha. Who is our lord? You defeated all the monsters, right? It will be the same this time.”

“I believe in our lord, but… .”

Laughing at the moaning citizens, Lily finished repairing the broken alchemy purification facility.

On the other side, Marherita was tending to sick citizens.

Unlike usual, as the confrontation with the monster legion continued to lengthen, an ominous atmosphere hung over the shelter.

The stomping and howling of the monsters echoed faintly all the way here.

‘… It’ll be fine. I’ll do my job.’

Lily, who also suppressed the rising anxiety and wiped the sweat from her brow, looked up to see if there was any other facility to fix it.

It was then.

“Aagh!”

“Quaaaaa!”

The screams of the guards resonated harshly.

When Lily looked there with the surprised people-

《What is it?》 A

huge werewolf with a silvery red mane was grinning cruelly, holding the guard’s corpse torn in two.

《Is everything delicious here~?》
