I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game Chapter 83

◈ 083. [STAGE 4] Instructions for Operation

In the meantime, Ader has been monitoring the five members of the Aegis task force just in case.

Lily’s business was there, and I couldn’t help but feel a little nervous about it.

However, nothing particularly unusual was found. They just flirt with each other like kids their age.

“It is true that we need their strength no matter what thoughts they have in their hearts. Please commit to this defense battle.”

Lucas agreed, and Lily also accepted this defense anyway.

Now, as a sub party, it has been confirmed that it will be put into this defense battle.

So, it was the afternoon of the day with three days left until the defense battle.

A room where the Aegis Task Force Team 8 stays.

“Bring it in, Lucas.”

“yes. Lord.”

As I ordered, Lucas brought five new clothes and set them down in the room.

“Your Highness, this is… ?”

I nodded my head at the puzzled task force members.

“The five of you, wear these clothes from now on.”

God Hand carefully picked up the suit.

Coat and jacket shirt and trousers tie and leather boots.

It was a typical imperial military uniform, but the design was different.

The imperial military uniform is made up of only black, but this outfit has splendid red in various places.

“It’s clothes!”

“Are you really providing food, clothing, and shelter?!”

Except for God Hand, the rest of the agents put on their coats right away with their eyes sparkling.

God Hand was hesitant about whether to stop those subordinates or whether he should wear them right away.

I smiled and explained.

“This is a prototype of the military uniform to be issued to the soldiers of the monster front.”

How to give members of a group a sense of belonging?

There are many ways, but the easiest of them is to wear the same clothes.

‘When you hire several mercenaries, these friends can’t easily become one organization… … It is because they lack a united sense of belonging.’

The same goes for the monster front here.

Basically, since I use all the mercenaries gathered from all over the world, they are all selfish and cannot be easily integrated into one organization.

So, one of the ways to increase this sense of belonging in the game was ‘making military uniforms’.

It costs a little bit because it has to be paid to the entire army, but the effect is quite good.

Anyway, that’s why I was making separate military uniforms for the soldiers who will belong to the monster front here.

And above all, this is my theory.

‘The military uniform must be cool.’

It should be a very cool fashion item. You have to be stylish enough to wear it proudly in any place.

That way, everyone wears it, is proud of it, and joins the military even if they want to wear it.

Imperial military uniforms are originally designed well, but. Still, it felt a little outdated.

However, the newly created military uniforms of this monster front are quite stylish and cool.

As I see it, Ader acknowledged it, and Evangeline, who was drinking water, was also praised for being pretty.

It would be fine even here.

“I made it as a prototype, but it came out a little small. I brought it because I thought it would be suitable for you to wear.”

I pointed to the fabric attached to the coat.

“And I think you guys have to hide your identities more… I have attached the hood and hood.”

The agents all put on hoods and covered their eyes with hoods.

Fluttering-

God Hand also put on a coat and covered his face with a hood and hood.

“From now on, you are no longer part of Team 8 of the Aegis Task Force. You, the team, are all dead.”

I nodded to the five agents standing in front of me.

“From this time on today, you are a special unit under the direct control of 3rd Prince Ash ‘Bonehater’ Everblack. It’s the ‘Shadow Squad’.”

These are death row inmates.

Officially, they are the ones who will be executed here on the monster front.

It’s going to be identity laundering anyway, so it would be difficult to continue treating them as the Aegis task force.

I’m blindfolded and I’m sorry, but I decided to change my name first.

“Come on, shadow troops.”

The five agents who had been given new names glared at me.

I smiled at them.

“Let’s go hunt monsters.”

***

“I will explain the basic strategy for this defensive battle.”

The drawing room of the mansion.

Lucas Evangeline Damian Lilly. This is where the main party members gather.

“… Before introducing that strategy.”

I gestured for the door.

“Let me introduce you to the newly organized sub party.”

The five sub-party members who had been waiting entered the parlor in an orderly manner.

Lucas and Evangeline already knew, so they were calm, and Lily glared at them with a complicated gaze.

Only Damian opened his eyes wide, not knowing why.

“These friends have been transferred under my umbrella this time. For some reason, I had to cover my face. The name is called ‘Shadow Troop’.”

chuck!

The five members of the shadow unit all bowed down in unison.

“Oh clothes.”

Compared to the main party, where the atmosphere was like a casual friend, Damian admired a little because he looked much more disciplined.

“The main party and the sub party will cooperate with each other, but it is unreasonable to properly coordinate at this point with three days left in the defense battle. Each of us will designate a task to do and move separately.”

After everyone was seated, I raised my voice.

“First of all, I will explain the big tactics of this defense battle.”

Ader brought the briefing materials he had prepared in advance. An outline of defensive warfare written in chalk on a blackboard.

Standing in front of the blackboard, I wrote ‘Killzone’ with chalk.

“What we do is the same as we always do. Establish a killzone.”

Lucas made a puzzled expression.

“But, lord. Aren’t the enemies this time the Gargoyle Corps? Then you will fly through the sky.”

“yes.”

“Then Killzone… In short, isn’t the tactic of limiting their access with barriers and barricades impossible?”

I nodded.

“Lucas is right. Walls and barricades can’t even reach them. You cannot form a kill zone on the ground.”

Right after that, I grinned and knocked on the blackboard.

“So we’re going to killzone… … It will form in the sky.”

The blackboard calculated the number of cannons and ballistas the Crossroads had, and the number of bullets that would be consumed if they fired continuously during the defense battle.

“We hit a ‘wall’ of cannonballs and arrows by continuously firing cannons and ballistas to form a net.”

“… ?!”

To the frightened party members, I continued to explain.

“Of course, gargoyles are magical creatures whose bodies are made of rocks or steel. Of course, it boasts ignorant physical defense.”

High physical defense and low magic defense.

This can be said to be similar to the Living Armor in Stage 1.

“No matter how much you deploy your fire net, it’s difficult to kill them with this. But you can force a path.”

I pointed to the center of the defense line map drawn on the blackboard.

“In the middle of the defense line. This place ‘deliberately’ spreads the net shallowly.”

“On purpose?”

“okay. Gargoyles are monsters that use their high defensive power to engage in melee combat. If you open the way, they will flock to this place.”

I drew a line with chalk on the top of the wall drawn on the blackboard.

“And turn this place into a field of their corpses… It makes it a kill zone.”

If your basic killzone strategy is to force your path with obstacles and feed crossfire to those who swarm in tight spots.

Contrary to the Gargoyle Corps.

It is to force a path by pouring fire and kill those who have gathered in a narrow place by other means.

“I understand that you intentionally bring them here.”

Lucas asked cautiously.

“But how are you going to get rid of them once you’ve drawn them in? Lord Jupiter won’t be able to participate this time… … . Is there any way to get rid of these guys, lord?”

Yes.

The biggest problem with this tactic is the absence of a way to defeat the guys gathered like that.

Is there a way to kill them all at once now that Blitzkrieg Jupiter has staged out due to an injury?

“There is a way.”

That’s why I enforce this tactic!

“It is just imperfect.”

However, it is not as easy and convenient as Jupiter.

“Wait here. Everyone, do you know how gargoyles fly?”

Everyone was taken aback when I suddenly changed the topic. Among them, Damian answered cautiously.

“Isn’t it using wings to fly?”

“There’s no way that heavy body could float simply with the power of the wings.”

“then… Is it magic?”

“That is correct, Damian. ruler.”

I took a candy from my pocket and threw it to Damian.

Damian, who was hesitant, was at a loss for what to do, then opened the candy wrapper and bit it into his mouth. That’s right.

“Yes. Their wings are enchanted with wind. Now then, here is the next question.”

The shadow corps members’ eyes shone terribly when they realized that they would give candy if they answered the questions correctly. Their appetite is a bit scary.

“What happens when two magics of the same attribute collide?”

Lily and God Hand raised their hands at the same time. The two had a snowball fight for a while. I pointed at Lily.

“Senior wizard. say it.”

“The higher level swallows the lower one.”

“That’s it. Come on, take the candy.”

I took a new candy from my pocket and threw it to Lily.

Receiving it, Lily was embarrassed and put the candy in her pocket.

I smiled at the shadow squad members.

“This is the last question. Then what will happen if we shoot higher level wind magic at the gargoyles?”

The Shadow Troops all raised their hands and shouted.

“It’s going down!”

“That’s it. Now, take them all.”

I threw candies to each of the Shadow Troopers, and I also threw one to Lucas and Evangeline.

I nodded as I saw everyone chewing on candy.

“If you force their path and gather them in one place, then use a stronger level of wind magic there.”

Gather them to the center of the wall and shoot wind magic there.

“The wind magic on their wings is consumed and their wings lose their lift.”

In other words – fall.

“We’re going to let those who flew in the sky crash before they set foot on the wall.”

Only then did the party members understand my thoughts and let out a small ah sound.

“They are very heavy friends made of rocks or steel. If you fall from the sky to the ground, you will not be safe.”

This is the difference between gargoyles and living armor.

Living Armor is a ghost that dwells in armor. Even if the armor is damaged to some extent, the specter is unharmed, so it continues to move.

In fact, even if it fell from the wall, it climbed back up intact.

Gargoyles, on the other hand, have higher body durability, but die when the body breaks.

‘Everything that falls has wings.’

If there is an enemy above your head, dropping it below your eye level is the first step to attack.

It was me, the player’s thought, to devise a way to steal the wings.

“But aren’t there any wind magic users among us?”

“So I ordered repairs in advance. There is a wind magic artifact.”

When I looked at Lily, Lily nodded.

“Your Highness. All artifacts ordered to be repaired have been repaired.”

“good. There are a total of three Gust Radiation Artifacts that will be placed on the walls this time. There is just a problem. What is the operating time and charging time of Lily Artifact?”

“Operation time for each artifact is 5 minutes. And the charging time is 15 minutes.”

this is the problem.

And it was an incomplete part of this operation.

“okay. There is time in between.”

After the Artifact is used, charging begins.

When the first artifact blocked anti-aircraft for 5 minutes and went into charging, the time required was 15 minutes.

After that, the other two artifacts blocked the anti-aircraft one after another, until the third artifact stopped working.

There are 5 minutes left until the first artifact is charged.

5 minutes.

The sky is empty for 5 minutes.

“They will come rushing into this gap.”

In the end, those who passed the wind kill zone for these 5 minutes… … We have no choice but to get rid of it by bumping into it with our bodies.

“Can not help it. We have to be honest here.”

All soldiers currently belonging to the Crossroads are mobilized to create a fire net.

The party of hero characters gathered here must do it to push the landed ones on the top of the castle wall with hand-to-hand combat.

“Lucas. Evangeline. Damian. Lily. and me. As the main party, we take the first line on the wall.”

I glanced over at the familiar main party members.

The trustworthy members who crossed the line with me smiled every time our eyes met. cute things.

Next I saw the shadow troops.

“And those who break through us are taken by the sub-party shadow troops. You will take turns fighting with us if the need arises.”

The five elves looked serious… … He rolled the candy in his mouth and bowed his head at me.

‘From now on, the treatment you will receive will be determined by this battle.’

You can feel it even if you don’t have to say it.

It’s time to show their abilities. The Shadow Troopers will do their best.

“Finally, the third sub party will take care of the gargoyles who broke through to the shadow unit and entered the inner walls.”

In the meantime, I made a sub-party with the N-class heroes I had been supplying.

They convened in advance and explained the operation first.

They will serve as the last line of defense inside the walls.

In the worst case, it is the last reserve to stop the monsters while evacuating citizens. I gave them candy first.

“It will be a fierce melee. Unexpected situations will continue to happen.”

Reluctantly, I added the following words.

“There will be more casualties than the previous stage.”

will hurt a lot maybe die

Some of the heroes here may be lost.

In Stage 2, no party members were lost because of the sacrifice of the Marquis, and in Stage 3, there were no deaths due to a combination of miracles and luck. But this time is different.

I’ll do my best not to lose anyone.

At the same time, you have to be prepared to lose someone.

That’s the monster front. Because I am the commander of that front.

“I wish you luck.”

The members of the two parties rose from their seats and bowed their heads to me in unison.

Even though I knew it was pathetic, I dared to spit out the following words.

“Survive. Everyone.”

***

Three days later.

The morning of the day of the defense battle was bright.

Then, dyeing the sky black –

monsters flew in.
