# 222
222. Mission Type Composite (2)
Field type is dark.
In the setting of Pick Me Up, it was an unknown place named as a super-dimensional space.
‘…’
I looked around.
In the sky that had turned purple, an afterglow shimmered like an aurora.
And under the sky, a vast forest spreads out. Up to this point, it was no different from the previous field, but the blackened forest was wriggling as if it were alive.
and.
[Warning!]
[The ‘Egg of Chaos’ is starting to work!]
Hulleong.
The eyes of the giant egg in the middle of the forest opened.
“Brother, over there…!”
“know.”
oh oh oh
The screams of the Chaos Eggs echoed throughout the field.
Tentacles protruded from the outside of the grayish-white shell and swayed.
“Kaaaaaa…?!”
The tentacles caught the herd of wyverns floating in the nearby sky like a whip.
Then, it took the prey with its mouth formed in the middle of its shell.
Kwajik.
Countless teeth began to chew on the Wyvern.
At the same time, dozens of tentacles spread in all directions swept the monsters indiscriminately.
“…not a very nice sight.”
Jenna smiled bitterly.
Well, when was that egg good to see?
[Danger!]
[Master ‘Chaos Egg’ hunts surrounding monsters! When the level of evolution reaches 100, ‘Egg of Chaos’ evolves into ‘Fluid of Chaos’. Satisfy the mission conditions within time!]
[Current evolution: 001 / 100]
Goooooooo!
The egg that swallowed a large monster the size of a building head first roared.
‘The goal has been set.’
Time Attack.
Eggs must be disposed of or their evolution slowed down before the evolution rate reaches 100.
There was no time to hesitate.
I looked over the field again.
More than 10,000 monsters swarming under the airship.
If that was all, it would be enough to deal with 30 monsters per hero, but monsters continued to pop up from somewhere. Faster than the tentacle can devour it.
‘Is it an impossible difficulty level?’
Novice masters tend to make assumptions only by seeing the beginning of the mission.
that this could never be broken
But
masters are different.
They knew the higher rules of pick me up.
‘…Any mission’ Even
if gods and demons pop out,
there is a strategy that can break it.
[What should I do?]
Edith’s voice rang out quietly.
It was a personal communication that only I could hear.
I put my hand on my ear.
“First of all, you have to go around the egg slowly and look at the field. There must be a hint for the strategy somewhere.”
I checked the notification window in the upper right corner of my field of vision.
[Current evolution: 001 / 100]
The rate of evolution is not fast.
There was plenty of time to slowly look over the field and align the raid.
“Probably, on this type of mission, there’s a goddess statue hidden somewhere in the forest. It’s dangerous to get close to the egg, so let’s go around the forest and find the object. Ask those with good eyes to take a closer look.”
[It’s clear. Okay.]
After cutting off communication with me, Edith immediately began disseminating what I had said through the command channel.
‘There aren’t many people who are scared.’
A few heroes have been seen in fear or panic, but are recovering quickly.
was able to fight
Whoops.
The Lucette turned her bow.
Following Edith’s instructions, he was going around Al and exploring the field.
“I’ll come now.”
Belquist, who was crossing his arms, murmured.
It was as it was said.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeg
The flying monsters hiding in the darkness of the forest flew up all at once.
Part of the sky seemed to turn black as they flew up. Hundreds even if you count them.
Naturally, their target was the Taonier airship fleet.
[Prepare the bombardment!]
Radi, the Taoneer’s chief mechanic and now the fleet commander, shouted from the command channel.
clap. Kirik Kirik.
There was a mechanical sound, and four airships following the Lucette from behind each displayed their weapons.
From the basic armament of a large ballista to a repeating catapult and a magic cannon, the artisans of the equipment factory invested day and night to make it.
[La Siodio Crew.]
[La Undien Yes.]
[La Bruceum.]
On the other side, I heard the sound of wizards chanting.
In addition to the twins in the 2nd party, Amkena recruited several new wizards through paid draws.
A flash of magical power was rising from each airship.
“Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
[Contaminated Harpy Lv. 48] X 321
[Contaminated Wyvern Lv. 51]
X 32
[Contaminated
Chimera Lv.
Fire broke out side by side on the sides of the airship.
A harpy that was hit directly by a ballista arrow was cut to pieces, and the wing of a wyvern that was hit by the bombardment was torn.
Several meters of ice spears and bolts of lightning pierced one chimera from head to tail.
pop! Pupperpuppung! Puff puff puff!
Like a fireworks display, all over the sky were stained with the screams of flames and bloody monsters.
[Archers, take care of those closest to you first!]
The monsters that pierced the airships and wizards had to face a barrage of arrows from the archers.
[Shoot!]
Parba baba baba bak!
The Chimera flying in the lead turned into a hedgehog and fell.
[We have nothing. I’m bored.]
Unfortunately, the high-speed ship, the Lucette, was unarmed.
“This is the first time I’ve ever shot an arrow without worrying about arrows.”
Jenna stood with her feet on a pole on the deck.
Beneath her feet was a barrel of dozens of steel arrows.
Jenna grinned and fed the string to the longbow.
[Unique skill ‘Steel Storm’ activates!]
Pah-Aang!
A single flash of light flashed, and the monsters caught in the arrow’s path shattered and disappeared.
“Don’t lose your strength and do it in moderation. We’re not here to deal with those petty people.”
“I know, I know. I will apply only when it seems dangerous.”
phut!
After killing the several meter tall Chimera with a single shot, Jenna prepared her next shot.
[There is no armament, but there is a human ballista.]
“It’s not as good as a ballista.”
The flying monsters constantly flew up from inside the forest, but were being annihilated by the fire nets and arrow fire. So far, no one has succeeded in attaching to the airship’s hull.
‘It’s about time.’
I looked beyond the sky
The prince who turned the field into darkness had disappeared somewhere.
He’ll be watching us flirting with his men.
‘It can’t end here.’
I put my hand on the hilt of Bifrost’s sword.
[Danger!]
[A dark portal is created!]
On the deck of an airship gliding through the sky.
The black hole twisted open.
“Kiaaaaaa!”
[Contaminated Goblin Lv. 38] X 315
[Contaminated Lizardman Lv. 41] X 85
[Contaminated
Human Soldier
Lv. started to fall to the deck.
The goblin in the front clung to the side of the Lucette.
[Raise the electric barrier!]
[Go! Million volts!]
Pajijijik!
“Kiaaaaaagh!”
The roasted goblin fell hundreds of meters down.
High-voltage current is flowing in all parts except for the deck and interior of the airship.
It was a facility to prevent those who climbed up in this way.
[Melee workers stick to the railing! Prepare for battle!]
“It’s about time.”
Belquist quietly drew his sword.
Dozens of monsters were falling on this side as well.
“joy!”
Kishasha, who exposed her fangs, clashed her fists.
[Unique skill sign language (transcendence type) activated!]
[‘Kishasha (★★★★)’ transforms!
]
Kishasha roared.
transcendental sign language. It brings the physical abilities of a beast without losing its human form.
It was a higher level than the existing sign language.
The ears of a fluffy tiger are sprouting from above the head.
Kishasha, whose tail waggled once, clenched her fists.
“Tiger Punch!”
Kishasha raised a fist.
Kwaaang!
The flesh and blood of the monsters fell all over the deck with the sound of bombs exploding.
“Don’t lose your strength from the beginning.”
“I know, Han! This is about warming up.”
A soldier fell from the edge of the deck.
The helmet was worn over the steel armor. There was no reason to be seen in the eyes peering through the armor.
“Kuaaa!”
He screams and stabs the window.
Kwajik. I took out the bifrost and cut it at the same time.
In an instant, the dismembered upper body of the soldier fell out of the airship.
I said after wiping the blood from my cheek.
“Each person decides their own area and organizes them. As I said earlier, our role is not to deal with petty people. Do not strain your strength unnecessarily and deal with them with minimal force. I will take over the aft side of the deck. Kishasha is the center, Belkist. Go ahead. Jenna will continue firing support, and Katio will rest without wasting magic.”
Everyone didn’t answer, but they moved as I said.
I walked to the back of the deck with my sword drawn. Just then, a Lizardman was falling.
“Kirak!”
pop!
When he landed a light jab with his left hand, the Lizardman, whose head had disappeared, stumbled and fell.
‘There aren’t many monsters here.’
The monsters that appeared from the gap of darkness were concentrated on the main unit of the raid.
In particular, hundreds of monsters were attached to the capitalism, the flagship of the raid. On the deck, heroes were fighting fiercely with monsters.
“We can make a passage to Unit 1.”
Katio, who was sheltering inside the deck, said.
I shook my head. There was no point in attacking if it was destroyed by an attack of this magnitude.
[Current Evolution: 004 / 100]
Evolution increased by 3 points.
Al was still in the process of preying on monsters while wielding tentacles.
[The basic formation is Wonjin! Get together as a party! Bring the injured on board and treat them!]
Messages from the heroes’ injuries came to mind one after another.
The number of monsters that have invaded the airship is already close to a thousand.
However, the hero’s side had not yet suffered a single fatality.
‘can do.’
The exchange rate between heroes and monsters was over 100 to 1.
This is enough to withstand not 10,000, but tens of thousands of birds.
It would have been difficult if we were surrounded on the ground, but this was our stage, the sky.
[Unlocks the warehouse!]
[Arrows for Ballista X 13235]
[Magical Explosives X 9831]
[HP Recovery Potion (Intermediate) X 511]
[Magic Recovery Potion (Intermediate) X 364]
[Summon Stone for Transfer X 318]
[ Jeon Hyun-seok…]
[Would you like to remotely supply the master airship fleet? ‘Summoning stones for transmission’ are required for supply.]
[Yes (optional) / No]
Ammunition and potions were overflowing.
Amkena, who opened the tactics menu, was steadily filling the airship with supplies.
It didn’t matter if I wrote all of them.
Taonier’s Equipment Factory, which resembles a large factory, is producing additional parts.
[Binary shift!]
A member change took place on the deck.
The 2nd Army, who had been conserving their stamina on board, switched positions with the 1st Army, who were fighting in full swing.
As the space above the airship is limited, the shift system was the most effective tactic in this situation.
[They are nothing. I can do it!]
Edith exclaimed.
[Hero ‘Edith(★★★★)’ comforts her teammates!]
[The morale of the raid team is rising!]
“It’s still boring.”
Belquist slashed the three soldiers in one motion.
Monster corpses were also piling up on the deck of the Lucette. First of all, most of them are dealt with at the current barrier. The number of monsters that land on the deck is not that many.
[There seems to be nothing outside the forest.]
Edith sent a private message.
The Taoneer 1st Fleet circled around the edge of the field while dealing with the monsters, but there were no unusual objects like statues of goddesses.
“It must be inside.”
I looked deep into the forest where the eggs were wriggling.
Clouds of ominous colors covered the place.
‘I have to break through that cloud.’
Well, the object can’t be outside.
Then it’s too easy.
[I’ll go in there.]
“Okay.”
Edith cuts off communication.
after a while
[Instructions delivered! I’ll go into the forest! It’s a bit scary, but…!]
The Lucette began to turn.
