Episode 455 Operation to Infiltrate the Water Source Zone (2)
“The Leviathan Family!”
“The Germans are coming!”
“The numbers are staggering!”
The cries of the sentries of the castle were all similar.
The horizon was dyed dark red.
An army of Germans covering the ground like a curtain coming down from above.
With the red aura of death flowing like an evil spirit, the Tochka Fortress annihilation battle has begun in earnest.
Kyaaa Ah Ah Ah-
Awesome toxic people flocking to the first wall.
They show ferocity and recklessness that cannot be seen as human beings, and cling to the walls with their bare bodies.
…Fuck!
Just as a bird crashes into a wall and dies, the poisonous man who rushed in first hit his head against the solid wall of Tochka Fortress and died.
Then, stepping on the corpse, another poisoner bangs his head against the wall.
…Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck! …Fuck!
The corpses of the poisoners piled up one after another gradually took on the shape of a chugcha.
And there was one existence that was leading these numerous Germans.
The black hood covering the entire body and the scythe in the cloak’s hand are grotesquely curved as well as the blade.
“…What is that guy?”
“Have you come to harvest something?”
The moment the guards let out a questionable voice.
…Sparkle!
The monster swung the sickle in his hand once.
Then, with a slash, a terrifying miasma flew in and hit the wall.
Kwak!
It was a blow so heavy that the entire castle wall was shaken.
The Harvester swung his scythe as if he had come to reap the lives of his enemies.
Every time he rampaged, powerful miasma bloomed around him, and accordingly, the poison people around him were getting more and more energetic.
Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca stood in one place.
“Is that black guy the captain of the vanguard?”
“He seems to have great skills. The skill with which he wields a scythe is unusual.”
“He looks like a commander…”
“I think the soldiers call him ‘The Harvester.’ It seems like he’s really here to harvest our lives.”
Bianca was the first to step forward.
“Where can I see your skills?”
Bianca’s arrow, which marked the end of Andrealphus, was aimed at the reaper.
pop!
An arrow that shoots through a hole in the air.
“……!”
The Harvester seemed to instinctively sense the threat.
But he didn’t particularly lift a scythe or anything.
Cha-cha-cha-cha!
It was because countless poisons united like human shields to block Bianca’s arrows.
Bianca took a few more snipes after that, but her arrows were all blocked by the poisonous shield before reaching Reaper.
“Sheesh. It’s so cheap. What kind of boy are you?”
Bianca clicked her tongue as she watched the harvester step back to avoid the arrow.
But even at this moment, the Germans continued to come.
Red Death Wave.
The miasma emitted by the poisonous people and the blood fountain they burst when they die infect even healthy people and turn them into poisonous people.
If it had not been for Dolores’ purifying power, which was maintained by setting up a wide-area divine barrier at the center of Fort Tochika, this impregnable castle would have been shaken.
Cheack-
When the harvester stretched out his hand to the side, the path of the poisoners changed.
Harvester who leads the poisons and continues to attack weak gaps in the wall.
He had a strong fighting power, but he also seemed to have a deep understanding of the art of war.
“Ugh, what kind of monsters are these…”
“The combination of commanders who are well versed in military strategy and soldiers who blindly follow them. It’s not like they swept through the civil war zone for nothing.”
“There’s even poison in there, so it’s worth saying it’s invincible.”
“Damn it! The soldiers are scared!”
Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca gritted his teeth and encouraged the soldiers, but the atmosphere was gradually leaning towards Leviathan.
Right then.
“Don’t back down, idiots!”
A loud roar came from the wall above.
Regardless of the enemy, everyone’s eyes instantly turned to the central wall.
There stood a tall old man holding a club.
Orca. ‘Orca Montreuil-sur-Mer Javert’. Warden of the New Wave.
Said to be a master of defense and mercury, he was overlooking the entire battlefield from under the walls.
“If you back down, everyone in the back will die! If you fight here, the only thing you lose is your own life! Between you alone and your family, which one is more profitable!”
The eyes of the soldiers who heard Orca’s screams returned to focus.
For a very brief moment, the atmosphere stopped tilting.
The seasoned veteran veteran did not miss the timing.
“Jangchangsoo and brain carpenters, come forward.”
The soldiers who had been waiting in advance for Orca’s command stepped forward.
They stretched out long spears and long trees toward the poison people climbing the wall, and pushed them away from a distance where the poisonous air could not reach them.
Also, fur cushions and bamboo straws made overnight by the refugees fell down and prevented the hemoptysis of poisonous people.
Orca looked away.
In the distance, I could see a haze of dust rising with poison fog.
“Dig a hole in the ground, bury the jar, and bring those with sensitive senses of hearing and touch into it. You can tell if the enemy is digging a tunnel or entering.”
Orca began to thoroughly command Mercury.
“Place five players for each castle, but select one captain for every five hits and one castle commander for every 25 hits. defend it.”
The troops deployed in advance move according to Orca’s orders.
Orca continued to give orders while observing the wriggling camp of poisons in real time.
“The firemen in charge of the artillery keep the charcoal fire burning and beat the drum every 10 minutes. The soldiers should naturally think that they can only hold out until the next drum beat. Also, the militia must pay special attention so that rogues inside the castle do not interfere with supply. It will be used, and in particular, make sure there are no disruptions to the supply of oil and gunpowder.”
As Orca, who was only watching the situation, came to the fore, the war situation also began to decline again.
The soldiers gained trust in the appearance of Orca, a war hero from long ago.
As the system of the Tochika defenders was established, the offensive of the Germans had no choice but to slow down.
“You’re good too.”
Bikir, who was commanding the soldiers on the other side of the wall, nodded while looking at Orca’s command in the distance.
Even before returning, Orca was a master of defense and siege warfare.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that humanity was able to survive because Orca participated in the second half of the war.
Unfortunately, however, he was guarding New Wave at the bottom of the deep sea while the war intensified, and because he participated in the war at the very end, he could not prevent the death of many people in the early and middle stages of the war.
……But now it’s different.
Orca, brought to the surface by Bikir, was working for humanity even before the war began in earnest.
That too in earnest!
“It’s a big deal! The Leviathan is bringing a shield car and a box car! The thugs are also approaching!”
The German troops were carrying shields to block arrows and stones and long ladders for the city walls.
In addition, large venoms carrying huge axes are even attempting hand-to-hand combat to break the stones and embankments at the bottom of the wall.
However, Orca gave the following order without a change in the expression on his face.
“Pour the oil supplied by the militia on the ramp of the wall, and the firemen throw charcoal fire on it. Take away the polearms and thunderbolts, and instead tie a bag containing gunpowder and iron chips to a chain and roll it over the wall.”
Soon, oil flows down the slightly inclined ramparts of Tochka Fort.
The Germans, who climbed the wall as if they were rock-climbing, fell down after being covered in oil and struggling.
The slippery wall was so steep that even the strong-bodied poisoners could not climb it.
And gunpowder and metal pieces of charcoal fell on it.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The combination of oil and fire and gunpowder caused a series of explosions.
The pieces of metal scattered together were spreading with terrifying momentum, tearing the poison people to pieces.
Among the projectiles and explosives soaring high into the sky, not a single one had intact limbs and bodies.
Seeing it, Tudor Sancho Piggy Bianca gaped in admiration.
“I don’t think he has any particularly clever or special strategies, but he’s amazing.”
“It’s just as it is in the textbook. It’s an incredibly classic and exemplary defense.”
“In fact, it is very difficult to call it a straight attack method. You have to accurately grasp the situation of your unit and take control so that there is no disruption to supply and troops.”
“Is sticking to the basics the most difficult?
As time passed, it was clear that the general offensive of the Germans was gradually weakening.
Over the horizon, the red demons were opening holes little by little.
The courageous soldiers looked up at the top of the wall and shouted.
“Wow! The Germans are hesitant! He’s a war hero of national salvation!”
“Almost blocked! Long live Orca! Long live!”
“Jaber-sama! What should we do now!?”
“Come on, next order!”
The crowd was sending flames like fervor toward Orca.
However, Orca just puffs out cigarette smoke and wrinkles his expression as if he is annoyed.
“What do I know next?”
……?
Words that made everyone doubt their own ears came out of the mouth of the war hero of salvation.
Orca chewed and spit out as he watched the enemy’s all-out offensive slowly fading away.
“I only defend. Attacking is someone else’s jurisdiction.”
After he finished speaking, he smoked a cigarette as if he was displeased and gestured to the side.
Everyone’s eyes moved to the side wall that Orca had pointed out.
And there, I see an old man with a creepy smile on his face.
“Pussssss…”
Sade. Cédric Sade de Sade, former Marquis of Engaugement.
He was looking down at the German troops in front with a look that would kill him for fun.
