Chapter 72. Attacking Weaknesses (2)
“Get out of the way! Move!”
“Get me out of here!”
“Fire!”
“Help me from there! Everyone move!”
It was an ordinary evening.
I finished the hard work.
I returned home and had dinner with my family.
I was just relaxing at home after such a long day.
It was an extremely ordinary evening, as was the case with most people in the trading city of Cremo.
Normally, it should have been.
But today was different.
A disaster that fell like lightning from the sky.
No, a statue of a mermaid that flew out of nowhere and got stuck.
Since the destructive accident occurred, all daily life in the city has collapsed.
It was a night of disaster.
“Here you go! My leg is stuck! Someone get me out!”
“Wait a minute. I’ll call people!”
The area around the square was a scene of mayhem.
People who were crushed by the collapsed building shouted for help.
However, rescuing them was not an easy task.
It was because of the fire.
At first, it was a small ember that flowed from a furnace in a collapsed building.
However, the embers were full of broken trees and furniture around them.
The fire spread quickly.
grew up in an instant.
It engulfed the building and began to spread.
The fire grew bigger and bigger like that.
“Fire!”
“Bring water! water!”
Citizens and security guards moved breathlessly.
They removed rubble from buildings, rescued people, and brought water jars.
However, the sea breeze was a problem.
Dry winter weather was also a problem.
Once lit, the fire was not easily extinguished.
It spread so quickly on the dry wind.
No matter how much I poured a pitcher of water and put out the fire, it was of no use.
The rate at which the fire spread was much faster than the rate at which it went out.
If this continued, a fire would spread throughout the city, leading to a major disaster.
“The 1st Battalion should focus on rescue activities near the plaza. Are the 2nd and 3rd battalions still far away?”
“We are assembling.”
“late. We need to build a fire line right now.”
The commander of the guards in Cremo City grinded his teeth.
Things have never been good.
No, it got worse every minute.
‘It’s a big deal. I can’t afford it.’
My mouth was dry.
The situation was so desperate.
‘Anyway, it’s such a strong windy day. The fire cannot be extinguished. Besides, many of the people who will command the troops went out to sea with their master and are not coming back.’
A fire that cannot be extinguished.
The guards who were supposed to turn it off were not moving smoothly either.
It was because most of the middle conductors had accompanied Count Cremo on board the sailboat.
Besides, the situation outside the city was not pretty either.
No, in a sense, it was more transcendentally hopeless.
‘That guy is coming ashore….’
Coastal cliffs outside the city.
Looking back, it felt like a nightmare.
In the moonlight under the dark night sky, I caught a glimpse of a 90-meter tall monster running amok.
It was Giga Titan.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A low and menacing scream that seemed to scratch the ground could be clearly heard from here.
No, he thumped his eardrum as if he was running.
‘When he gets here…It will be the end.’
he could be sure.
A city ravaged by fire.
What if that Giga Titan came here and made a fuss?
You will take huge damage.
The entire count’s army, including the guards, would risk their lives to stop it.
‘But there is no news from the lord. I don’t even know if you’ve already been attacked by that monster. The fate of our city…Is it until today?’
Dark clouds hung in the heart of the guard commander.
I looked around the city with deep eyes.
From the plaza, I watched the flames that were eating away at the town.
Thanks to him, he was able to see it.
Soaring and spreading fire.
The night sky is so red.
The majesty of the 60-meter-diameter pink water balloon falling from above.
“Hamang!”
Tuong-!
Hamang shouted.
At the same time, he opened his mouth wide.
A huge amount of sea water, over 100,000 liters, poured out of the wide open mouth of the phantom species.
Shoot Aaaaaa!
The sea water pouring out of the sky met the resistance of the air.
It was broken into chunks of pieces.
Scattered into tens of millions of droplets.
It was scattered all over the square and the city.
Chow!
The momentum was like that of localized heavy rain that poured down in an instant.
The fire that was spreading through the city was quickly extinguished with that one shot.
The flames that had moved to the building next to it went out, and the heat that burned the pillars and roof cooled down.
And the lower jaw shrunk to the size of a fist and fell down.
It landed on Lloyd’s palm.
“Hamang!”
Clash!
“good job.”
Lloyd stroked the mango.
Actually, I wondered if this could work.
I wondered if Hamang, who was soaked in seawater, would be able to jump out of the city and fly over the city.
That worry was unfounded.
Hamangi’s ability was much better than he expected.
While hitting the ground a few times, it bounced well like a bouncy ball.
“You did really well. You saved a lot of people today.”
“Hamang!”
Lloyd stroked Hamang one more time before putting it in his pocket.
cried out loud
“Run more, Podong! What!”
“Ppodong!”
Podongi, who was carrying Lloyd, jumped even harder.
I ran across the main street, jumped over the roof of a dried fish store, and ran through the plaza.
Then it finally appeared.
‘found.’
A spire stands tall on one side of the square.
A statue of a mermaid was tucked into its side.
Lloyd drove Pudong all the way to the bottom of the spire. shouted
“Ppodonga! Pull out!”
“Podo-dong!”
He jumped up with the same momentum that Podongie had been running.
I clung to the mermaid statue nestled in the side of the spire and clung to it.
He twitched his chubby bottom and gave strength to his front legs.
Kwajajak!
The statue of a mermaid, which was deeply embedded in the spire, was pulled out at once.
‘Just right.’
his eyes were shining
It was a terribly crushed and crushed mermaid statue.
It must have been the case since I was hit by Giga Titan’s torso headbutt and flew all the way here.
But even so, the outline and silhouette of the body were roughly alive.
A broken head and arms were also seen rolling nearby.
“Hey, can you carry this?”
“Ppodong!”
Fortunately, Podongi was able to carry the statue of a mermaid that was bigger than himself without difficulty.
The same was true of the two arms that Lloyd groaned.
“Okay let’s go!”
“Ppodong!”
I left the square behind and ran.
I was a little worried about the people left in the square, but I couldn’t help it.
The most urgent fire was extinguished, so the rest of the rescue activities could be done by the remaining guards and people.
Believing that, I drove the Podongi away.
“there! To the shipyard!”
“Ppodong!”
Little Boy turned at Lloyd’s gesture.
A caisson made at a shipyard to pay for offshore artificial ground work earlier.
It was a familiar route for ordering and checking the caisson.
Thanks to this, Lloyd was able to reach the shipyard easily.
I quickly found what I had in mind there.
‘It seems that the large cart was always parked over there…That’s right. found.’
Lloyd’s eyes lit up.
There was a special large cart used in the shipyard.
It was a monster used to transport large quantities of timber or small ships on land.
A thick wheel axle to handle the enormous weight.
Six pairs of wheels as tall as a person.
It was a specially sized cart, of which there were only two in this large city.
“Ppodong? excuse me!”
“Podo-dong!”
Lloyd pointed to the cart.
Podongi, who immediately grasped the meaning, moved.
I put the mermaid statue I was carrying on the cart.
The big cart rocked once, but it didn’t matter.
Like a monster cart, it was able to withstand the enormous weight of the statue.
Lloyd underwent emergency surgery (?) for the frostbite.
‘Because I need to look like a living mermaid in the eyes of Giga Titan as vividly as possible.’
I brought plenty of rope for the ship.
It was meticulously wrapped around the body of the mermaid statue.
The two broken arms were connected with a rope wrapped around it.
Coincidentally, both arms of the statue were severely broken at every joint.
In other words, the shoulder as well as the elbow and wrist were all separated.
I tied it all together with a rope and connected it.
Every connected joint rattled like a nunchaku.
The broken neck was similarly connected.
Less rattling than the arm.
Just a little bit of a twitch.
That’s how the bronze mermaid inflatable doll was completed, albeit temporarily.
‘Reality is right.’
At this rate, whenever the cart shakes, the joints connected by the ropes will move slowly on their own.
Rather, it was much more lively than when it was a statue before it was broken.
‘Then, this guy like this…stand up! Wow!’
Fortunately, the cart was made so that the floor could be raised at an angle.
It’s like a modern dump truck tipping the cargo bay and pouring out dirt.
It was a device for pouring out the transported timber.
Kirik! Kirik! Kirik!
He moved the lever up and down non-stop.
Every time the device on the bottom of the cart made a loud noise.
The bottom surface was inclined at an angle.
Naturally, the statue of the mermaid also rose up.
A satisfied smile finally formed on Lloyd’s lips.
‘This is enough.’
The moderately slanted angle was just right to look at.
Finally, Lloyd completely entangled the body of the statue with the cart.
This was to prevent the statue from falling even if the cart ran violently and rattled.
So everything is ready.
‘It’s a rope that ties a ship weighing hundreds of tons, so this should be enough.’
Convinced, Lloyd tied the rest of the rope around Pudong’s waist.
It was stretched out and connected to the cart.
“Hey, Podong?”
“Ppodong?”
“Are you ready to run?”
“Ppodong!”
Pudongi’s black eyes were filled with determination.
“Then let’s go! What!”
slap!
Lloyd patted Pudong on the back.
Pudongi’s chubby body ran with explosive momentum.
The heavy cart connected to the back began to be dragged by Pudongi’s supernatural power.
Kurur….
slowly at first.
slowly and quickly.
gradually accelerating.
finally explosively.
“Gazua!”
“Ppodong!”
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!
Every time Podongi kicked the floor, the ground dug up.
The cart galloped through the explosively scattered soil.
That’s how I left the shipyard behind and ran.
I left the city in an instant.
I ran to the cliffs of the west coast.
The rampaging Giga Titan was there.
“Front!”
“Ppodong!”
It ran head-on toward Giga Titan.
A large cart pulled from behind made a loud noise from the rugged rocks on the shore.
Kwadaldaldaldaldaldaldaldal! Kudaldal!
A bumpy rocky area, not a flat road.
Passing through there, the cart ran amok like a bumper car.
It groaned and swayed like crazy, and ran anyway.
Naturally, the statue of the mermaid on the cart was also shaken violently.
Daldaldaldaldaldaldaldaldal!
My throat twitched incessantly.
Both arms showed crazy poppin waves.
Thanks to that, Giga Titan’s gaze came back to us.
And finally, I put it in my eyes.
Her nemesis and nemesis, the mermaid.
Among them, a particularly huge and menacing mermaid.
Seeing the enemy running furiously toward him.
The transcendent sight of running and dancing hula to the 16-bit Jajinmori rhythm.
Grrrr!
Giga Titan immediately turned around.
I forgot about Xaviel, whom I had been relentlessly targeting just before.
Nome recognized that dance machine mermaid charging toward him as an even more threatening foe.
and reacted
Like the children running towards the balloon dolls at the opening of a local chicken restaurant. Or like a job seeker who opens his eyes to the open special fried 1+1 set.
I ran towards the running cart.
let out a fierce roar.
It came flying with its huge, club-like forelimbs.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
“Turn it on!”
Lloyd shouted.
He pulled Podongi’s right ear.
Pudongi, realizing his meaning, immediately ran to the right.
A cart connected with several layers of rope followed along to the right.
Aaaaaang-!
A roar like a bomb exploding.
The illusion of shaking the earth’s axis.
The entire area was devastated by Giga Titan’s front leg strike.
But even in the midst of that, Podongi ran well.
Lloyd on his back did the same.
‘You did a good job learning how to ride a horse from Xaviel!’
On the way to this city, I learned horseback riding step by step.
Perhaps thanks to learning how to ride a horse, I was able to not fall off the back of Podongi, who ran like crazy.
But it was still too early to be relieved.
“Faster!”
“Ppodong!”
Quaang-! Kwaaang-!
Fantastic poppin dance of a powerful mermaid statue.
Seeing that, Giga Titan jumped in awe.
At that time, Lloyd’s chest also thumped like he was walking on a tightrope carrying a burning drum.
“More quickly! run! And Xaviel man! You too, hurry up!”
Lloyd’s cry became urgent.
First of all, we succeeded in turning off Giga Titan’s aggro.
So now it was Xaviel’s turn to catch him.
‘This is why I didn’t want to take on a role like this!’
I just wanted to pay off my family’s debt.
I’ve been working really hard for that.
I tried to hide quietly today,
but how did I end up taking on this risk?
Lloyd resented his misfortune in a spontaneous sigh.
‘This is all because of you, the heroine of the novel!’
He looked up with resentful eyes as he busily drove the baby boy.
I could see Xaviel leaping like a flash battle.
Wow!
Giga Titan became defenseless while chasing us.
Xaviel jumped at his weakness.
With a single sword drawn.
After getting ready to stab.
Finally, it came out like a thunderbolt.
Accurate-!
Xaviel’s strongest skill.
The blast exploded.
