◈ 367. [STAGE 15] Suicide Squad
30 minutes ago.
Lily spoke to me in a calm voice.
“I don’t need anyone else. Please let me go.”
“What nonsense are you talking about, Lily… .”
I can’t even walk properly, so I’m going to send you alone in the middle of enemy lines while using a wheelchair.
He tried to refuse, but Lily was persistent.
“If I don’t go now, I will regret it for the rest of my life. There was a possibility of saving him, but he was scared and couldn’t move.”
Lily looked at me with a steady gaze.
“I will stop giving up without even trying.”
… It
was also the story I told her.
“after… .”
I sighed and shook my head slightly.
“I might die. No, the odds of dying are much higher.”
“does not matter.”
Lily squeezed her leg with her hand.
“I would rather die than live without a challenge.”
“… .”
“So please let me go. majesty. God Hand by myself… … I’m going to go find the Shadow Unit.”
If it is original, it is correct to ignore it.
The risk is too great and the return is uncertain. Another loss may occur while trying to save a party that has fallen out.
But, however-
‘I seek people within my reach.’
The banner I put up.
It is impossible to let go of this.
As long as there is still a chance that the Shadow Unit is still alive, I shouldn’t give up on them too hastily… … !
“Ask first.”
I looked back at the heroes and asked.
“Is there any other asshole that will crawl itself into that hell full of goblins?”
Then, almost all the heroes under my command raised their hands in unison.
I laughed bitterly and shook my head.
“… The Shadow Unit must have been more popular than I thought.”
“He who can be saved will be saved. Isn’t that what you taught us?
Evangeline came forward, showing off her shield.
“If we all work together, we can save enough of the Shadows!”
“… .”
At that time, Lucas, who had been observing the situation without raising his hand, quietly approached me.
“… Lord.”
“say.”
“The right thing doesn’t necessarily succeed. All goodwill goes unrequited.”
“… .”
“This choice… You may regret it.”
“I have no regrets.”
There are no regrets at the time of choosing the route.
It’s just running for an attack.
After sighing, I looked back at the heroes.
“I said You can’t risk the lives of others to rescue the Shadow Force.”
Everyone is listening intently to what I am saying. I nodded.
“So, pour in all available means to reduce the chance of damage to this side as much as possible.”
There is no time. I laid out a map on the table and quickly explained the strategy.
“There is another teleport gate built within a 15-minute ride on horseback from the outpost.”
Teleport gates are densely installed throughout the three-day road from the outpost to the crossroads.
It was to accumulate damage to the monster army through guerrillas.
Among them, I pointed out the gate closest to the outpost.
“We are sending a decoy unit here. All hero parties, except for the rescue squad, rush into the decoy squad.”
don’t think it’s hard The guerrilla operation that we originally intended to do is starting now.
“If the decoy unit rushes into the outpost and the goblins in confusion launch a counterattack—”
My fingertips tapped the emergency gate drawn on the outpost.
“The rescue team enters through the emergency gate inside the forward base. Search for the shadow unit and rescue them.”
Then I pointed to the two parties in turn.
“You are the rescue team. The Leper Slaughter Team and the Holy Grail Exploration Team.”
The leaders of each party, Torkel and Belldandi, nodded.
“After the leprosy squad rushes in, guard the emergency gate. Buy time until the Holy Grail Exploration Team searches for the shadow unit and escapes.”
“yep.”
“You guys from the Holy Grail Exploration Team have to search the inside of the outpost and rescue the shadow unit.”
“Leave it to me!”
The Holy Grail Exploration Team itself is good at Gidobinic, and its leader, Belldandi, is an Assassin class.
Moreover, what I have to find this time are three elves, my own kind. It can be said to be the best for search.
“I have one last request. It is also a command.”
After ordering the soldiers to bring the horses for the heroes to ride, I said.
“Don’t risk your own life trying to save your allies.”
“… .”
“If there is a power loss in a place like this, even the main stage, the crossroad defense battle, will be shaken. Your life is an instrument that I must use very carefully.”
After taking a breath, I looked around at the heroes.
“Never take your own life lightly. So that I don’t have to plan a rescue operation again.”
match!
I clapped loudly and raised my voice.
“There is no time! Start immediately!”
***
All right! All right! All right!
The decoy unit is running towards the forward base by driving horses with all its might.
It’s a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of It’s ridiculous, but it’s already started.
‘… It reminds me of an American movie.’
War movies like < Black Hawk Down >, < Lone Survivor > and < 13 Hours > suddenly flashed through my mind.
These films have one thing in common: a rescue team is dispatched to save fallen allies and suffers greater damage. The common point is that they are all based on a true story.
“… .”
Write. Just an ominous thought.
After running hard, the appearance of the forward base began to appear shortly after.
I looked around and cried out.
“Damian!”
“Your prince!”
Damian looked back at me with a bright face.
Just a moment ago, the [Black Queen] fired a full charge shot, so her physical strength and magical power would be discharged, but what should I do? I’ve come this far
“request!”
“Leave it to me!”
Damian was riding the same horse as Evangeline for convenient sniping. Damian took out the [Hunter’s Retribution] from the luggage on the back of the horse.
Clap!
The long horse-must barrel came up on Evangeline’s shoulder.
Evangeline, who had previously put on earplugs, broke into a cold sweat as she looked at the horse gun placed right next to her face.
“… Wouldn’t it be bad for the beauty of your skin if it sparks like this?”
“are you okay. Being a tank, your health regeneration is high. More than anything, 10 years old.”
When you’re your age, you can recover from skin damage just by waking up. Believe in the power of youth.
“Scarred skin is the honor of a warrior! Because my white jade-like skin is free of cracks… … .”
Evangeline glared at the outpost, her green eyes flashing.
“I hope everyone is safe.”
“… .”
I think so too. sincerely.
“after-.”
Damian let out a breath as he attached the old scope and peered into it.
The stamina and magic power that fell on top of the wildly running horse, and the distant target… … .
There were only bad conditions, but nothing was a problem for Damian.
Taang-!
With a percussion sound, the magic bullets were shot forward like beams of light. In the distance, an armored goblin standing on the rampart of the outpost collapsed, bleeding.
I blew a whistle while looking toward the outpost through a telescope.
“Nice shot Damian! continue!”
Taang! Taang! Taang-!
Damian didn’t stop. They started shooting indiscriminately at the goblin officers who came into sight.
The magic bullets flew in a strange trajectory and pierced the heads, necks and chests of all the goblins.
When Damian used up all 12 magazines of [Hunter’s Retribution], the outpost was already in chaos.
Well, since all 12 officers who were standing still are dead, there’s no way there’s going to be an uproar.
The goblin legion began pouring through the open outpost gate. The reaction rate is pretty fast.
“everyone! Prepare for battle-!”
Except for Evangeline and Lucas, everyone has been equipped with long-range weapons.
I’m only going to lure them away by widening the distance anyway, so I need to damage them with the best possible range.
The magician troops cast magic and the rest of the warriors equipped with bows also prepared for a ranged attack.
Quylan and the Punishment Unit took out the boomerang, the long-range weapon of the Maple Rang tribe.
“When I give orders, everyone attack!”
As I looked around, I noticed something strange. what?
“… what. Where’s Lily?”
Lily, who should be burning fire magic with Junior’s wizard party, was nowhere to be seen.
Looking at Junior, Junior also had an expression that he did not understand.
“Didn’t you come with me?”
“yes? no? You weren’t there from the start… … ?”
“… .”
I gritted my teeth.
“Lily, this guy can’t be… … !”
***
The top floor of the outpost. above the turret.
“… .”
“… .”
The rescue team that had just entered through the hidden emergency gate – the Leper Slaughter Team and the Holy Grail Exploration Team looked at the 11th member with bewildered eyes.
It was Lily. He rode in a wheelchair and finally followed him this way.
“Lily. I’ll be direct.”
Belldandy deliberately shot at him with a hard voice.
“You, who cannot use your legs, are a burden to our rescue team. Go back immediately.”
“But you can use wide-area magic.”
Lily slit her palm with the dagger she was carrying. His skin shimmered like flames and he let off the attack.
It was her characteristic [flame skin].
“I’m immune to physical attacks.”
“… .”
“With and without a wizard, the ability to cope with situations is completely different. You know?”
It was true a hundred times, but no matter how much I couldn’t walk… … .
Lily said with a serious face to the hesitant Belldandi.
“God Hand is my lover. Please let me help.”
“… .”
“Because if there is a price to pay for taking a risk, I am willing to pay.”
Belldandy smiled and shrugged.
“Lily. Did I mention that God Hand was once my underling?”
“… I kind of listened to God Hand.”
“That little boy got such a good girlfriend. So many years have passed… … .”
Belldandy kicked the dagger he was holding around his waist.
“great. Instead, I cannot use a wheelchair. I’ll carry you Are you okay though?”
“It’s heavier than I look.”
“are you okay. I am stronger than I look.”
Belldandi hugged Lily. Belldandi smiled brightly with her tear-stained eyes, and Lily, embarrassed for some reason, averted her gaze.
“We are the gate. I will definitely keep it.”
Thorkel and the Leper Slayers raised their respective shields and greatswords.
“This time, the role of the finale… I will do it properly.”
“I’ll be back soon. Hold on for a little while.”
It was then. Gunfire rang out in the distance, and a goblin fell on the wall with the sound of ripping wind, dripping with blood.
Damian’s sniping began.
The goblin janissaries fell pick and pick, and the goblins, who had been groaning, soon let out an angry roar and began to rush out to the north.
The Holy Grail Expedition Elves and Lily looked at each other and nodded.
“Now! let’s go!”
***
Current.
The Holy Grail Exploration Team and Lily managed to find the location of the three shadow troops, and Lily threw flame magic to save them and broke in.
Roasting all the goblins – succeeded in rescuing the 3 members of the shadow unit.
“I said If anything happens, I will come to rescue you.”
God Hand ran to Lily who said so while being held in Belldandi’s arms.
Belldandy quickly handed over Lily lightly, and God Hand and Lily hugged each other tightly.
The two lovers were covered in the monster’s blood and soot, but they didn’t care. They buried their noses in each other’s necks and inhaled each other’s body odor.
“You’re alive, right?”
“yes. Alive.”
“In the future?”
“Continue from now on. By your side… .”
***
《You’re a bucket.》
Attack from the north Soldiers lured in as if being sucked away, and a magical explosion occurred inside the base.
Carly-Alexandre, who was informed of the whole situation, noticed the situation at once.
《Humans cherish the lives of their comrades.》
A cruel smile crept across the mouth of the Goblin God King behind the mask.
“So you can use it.”
