◈ 364. [STAGE 15] Outpost (2)
The composition of the junior party is 5 wizards.
Junior, an SSR-rank wizard, and two R-rank wizards and two N-rank wizards.
The gap between the juniors who have completed awakening with good equipment and the rest of the party members who are barely able to use basic skills is significant.
But no matter how bad he is, he’s a wizard.
And when five wizards gather, it is possible to generate power that will literally shock the world.
First, the four wizards, excluding Junior, unleashed their own attribute magic.
“Uh-”
“Wow-”
“Ahhh-!”
Along with the weak spirit of the young boys and girls, the magic that each shot hit the southern field with Jung-gu heating.
Sparks and gusts of water and rocks poured down.
pop! Pervert!
In front of magic, the goblin shield soldier’s shield was of course useless, and dozens of goblins were knocked down wherever their magic fell.
However, they couldn’t shoot any more, and the young wizards panted and retreated. It seems that this is the limit because the level is low.
Then Junior finally stepped forward.
“after… .”
Taking a deep breath, Junior jerked his cane forward.
Junior is an Elementalist.
A wizard who can control all magical elements.
Among them, he is particularly good at natural attributes – water, wind, and electricity. It’s not that you can’t deal with other properties.
Especially if other wizards lay the board in advance!
“Huh-!”
Following the will of Junior, who opened his eyes wide, the magic atoms filled in the field began to draw strange movements.
Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, and–
Kureung Kururureung… … .
Flash-!
Rae (雷)!
Even the lightning bolt that Junior inherited from Jupiter!
The five magic attributes are entangled with each other, creating a synergistic effect and magically merging, and right after.
Quguaguaguagwang-!
It caused a terrifying explosion.
The field in front of the advance base became a mess. At least hundreds of the goblins caught in the range were instantly reduced to ashes.
In addition, the flames of the explosion and residual heat fever remained, making the area difficult to approach.
this is the wizard
A walking bomber A tactical missile that lives and breathes!
If it was a decent army of monsters, this link would have been a blow close to destruction. Because hundreds of monsters were burned.
But-
Kirik… … .
Kyririk! Kirik!
They are goblins.
They are monsters who use their lives as weapons.
Moreover, in preparation for the shelling from this side, the formation was widely spread.
This isn’t enough to break their brunt… … !
The goblin legion, spread out to the left and right of the fields shimmering with the heat of magic, continued to run without stopping.
Junior, who fired a big shot, went into magic charge again, and in the meantime, I called my next missile.
“Damian. It’s your turn!”
“yes!”
As soon as I heard my call, Damian put down the horse gun he was using and took out the [Black Queen] and grabbed it.
Damien possesses two wide-area skills.
Ultimate [Confrontation]. And the railgun mode of the magic gun [Black Queen].
The double [confrontation] was decided to be sealed this time. It wasn’t anything else, it was because there were too many enemies.
Damien’s ultimate [Confrontation] is a skill that fires attack magic bullets and healing magic bullets at all enemies and all allies caught in sight.
However, since the total amount of magic that Damian can use is fixed, as the number captured increases, the bullets are broken into small pieces and their power weakens.
And the current goblin legion numbered over 30,000.
If you use [Confrontation], Damien’s magic power will split into 30,000 shots… … It’s just not doing it.
It would just be out of power because the magic power was discharged for no reason.
So go with the second option [Black Queen]!
Damian put on the heat-resistant gloves he had prepared and took out a pure white horse gun and held it in his bosom.
“Activate Nightmare Slayer Mode.”
clap clap clap!
The gun barrel deformed arbitrarily, and eventually formed two long rails.
“With the greatest power.”
Pachichi Pachichichi… … !
The seven magic bullets condensed into one large bullet bullet, and the thunderbolt bounced between the two rails, and the body trembled.
A magical current bounced between the rails, ready to fire. Damian glanced at me and I nodded.
“Scream away!”
“yes!”
Damian’s finger pulled the trigger.
Tuquaaang-!
Magic bullets were fired with tremendous gunfire.
The magic bullet fired while shattering the [Black Queen]’s barrel completely penetrated the depths of the goblin army.
It tore every goblin in its path to shreds. In an instant, the goblin corps split left and right following the trajectory of the magic bullet.
Not only the goblin soldiers in the front, but also the goblin officers in the rear were swept away by this sniping shot.
Goblin Janissary’s kill count jumped at once.
But this time too.
I had no choice but to say the same words as when I was a junior a moment ago.
They are goblins, monsters who use their lives as weapons, and in addition, they have spread their formations wide in preparation for artillery fire from this side.
It’s still not enough to break their brunt… … !
Kirik! Kiriririk!
As if a void had arisen, the green wave rushes in again, filling the void of the casualties.
Inside the barricades and stone wall traps and mine kill zones this side has set up –
die and die and die again, fill the floor with corpses and climb on top of them.
By the time the kill count exceeded 1,000 after the battle began, the head of the goblin army had reached the southern wall.
Sreung-!
The melee heroes who had been waiting for melee combat situations pulled out their weapons.
lucas party. Evangeline Party. Leprosy killing squad. And Dusk Bringer and the Dragon Blood Knights.
Just before they jump into battle, looking down at the goblins crowding right in front of them –
“Your Highness!”
An urgent report from the skirmisher came in.
Looking that way, the skirmisher who was looking through the telescope in another direction shouted.
“They’re taking a detour-!”
“… !”
I lifted my telescope and saw the direction the skirmisher was pointing.
All right! Dagdak-!
I could see the goblin cavalry circling to the east of the outpost and making a detour. The number of those who rode wild goats was in the thousands.
“majesty! West too!”
Other skirmishers were also reporting, so I turned my telescope in that direction as well.
Doo doo doo doo-!
tank corps.
I saw goblins riding chariots pulled by huge oxen. It is also large.
‘Chit!’
I had a history of being brutally beaten by werewolves during Stage 10, so I honestly didn’t think they would only hit the south side.
In particular, the opponent this time is the Goblin God King. Even among monsters, he’s the type to use his head.
So, I had that in mind, but I never thought they would attack me from the rear, as shown in the picture… … .
‘The walls of the forward base are not high.’
Although it has been reinforced, it is not a fortress but a base. Besides, there are not many people.
Cavalry and chariots were enough to neutralize the walls.
It is a classic and effective tactic to draw attention to infantry such as shield soldiers and divert cavalry and chariots with high attack power.
‘The basics of tactics from ancient times to modern times can be briefly explained after all.’
Anvil & Hammer.
A tactic in which the defending unit (anvil) receives the enemy’s attack, and when it endures, the attacking unit (hammer), which has excellent mobility, returns to the enemy’s rearguard and strikes.
shield and spear. infantry and cavalry. Tanks and dealers… … .
It can be said that it is a basic and standard tactic that allows even a non-military gambler like me to effectively manage troops in any game.
And- the anvil of the Goblin Legion is deep and solid.
Their infantry units managed to hold on even as they were torn apart by crossfire from our side.
No, not to the extent of enduring it, but staying healthy and sticking close to our chins.
And now the goblin legion’s hammer was approaching behind our heads.
To put our jaws on an anvil and hammer down the back of the head.
“All troops!”
so can you
“Retreat-!”
You have to get away before you get caught.
“Go back to Crossroads through the teleport gate!”
“… !”
“Retreat, starting with the regular soldiers! right now! Carry it out!”
Some heroes and soldiers looked at me in amazement. It might be embarrassing because it’s an earlier retreat than we had coordinated in advance.
However, their advance and detours were swift.
In order to get out without damage as we originally planned, we must start retreating right now.
pop! Pervert!
Patter… … !
Lastly, fire cannons and ballista artifacts.
Chew!
Roaring!
After pouring oil and setting fire to prevent these equipment from falling into the hands of the enemy, the soldiers began to rush into the forward base.
As I watched, I turned my head to the side. Dusk Bringer smiled, showing sharp teeth.
“Are you looking this way now?”
“yes. Grand Duke please.”
“Leave it to Huhu Guwain!”
Standing on top of the castle wall with a grin, Dusk Bringer took a deep breath and said,
“Get down, you worms!”
He let out a loud lion’s roar.
Dragon Roar!
The power of the dragon, the top predator. A mere growl makes the prey terrified and rigid.
Kirik?!
Kyririk!
Patter!
All the goblins within reach of the dragon roar dropped their weapons and fell to the ground. The effect is certain.
‘Okay, this bought me a little more time.’
I looked back at the heroes and nodded.
“Let’s retreat!”
The heroic party also ran in front of the teleport gate one after another.
The teleport gate installed in the central courtyard of the outpost was activated and emitted light.
Most of the soldiers had already left.
Lucas pointed his hand inside the gate.
“Lord. Go first.”
“No, I’m at the end… … .”
“Lord.”
Lucas said with a stern face.
“You go first.”
“… .”
It was not a situation to insist on. I nodded and threw myself into the teleport gate.
Flash!
After the teleportation, it was the Crossroads barracks. The soldiers who came first lined up under the direction of their superiors and were checking the numbers.
Flash! Flash!
After I passed, the remaining members kept returning to the teleport one by one.
Damian’s sniper party, Junior’s wizard party, returned first.
After that, Dusk Bringer, Dragon Blood Knights Evangeline, and Lucas returned in turn.
and a moment of silence.
I frowned and looked toward the gate. what.
“Why aren’t the remaining members coming back… .”
Udang-tang-tang!
Before he could finish his words, with a loud noise, large mercenaries wrapped in bandages rolled out of the gate.
It was the tanker party Leprosy Slaughter Squad that was supposed to be the last member of the hero party.
Torkel, the leader, brushed off his body covered in green blood and soot.
“… It was close. Right before we got to the gate, an army of goblins burst into the fortress… … . I barely escaped before I was caught.”
“You’ve worked hard, Thorkel. Okay, then did everyone return?”
While checking the faces of the returning heroes, I suddenly stopped.
“… wait for a sec.”
Only then did the other heroes, who noticed the change, harden their faces one by one.
After checking the number of heroes and soldiers once again, I murmured nervously.
“Where did the Shadow Force go?”
