chapter 143
Trokilgigas (1)
over the barren wasteland.
Sand dust rises in line with the footsteps of the monsters, and a rough vibration rushes in from under the ground.
thud!
From the moment they came in 3 kilometers, the unmanned tank fired continuously, and mercenaries of various races were also waiting to build a defensive formation.
They were expressing tension in different ways, such as the sound of swallowing saliva and hardened facial expressions.
From arrowheads and shields to swords and even some firearms. All of them were studded with middle and upper level jewels, so there seemed to be nothing lacking in terms of equipment.
Of course, the goddess had a slightly different opinion.
[Above the Sun]
[Requirement: Defeat Witchilopochtli’s Servant.]
[whole body]
[Requirement: Survive without permanent physical damage.]
The former was meant to be, but the second mission window contains a rather eerie message.
It must mean that subjugation will not be easy.
It’s not that it’s not, the combat environment wasn’t all that good.
After more than 1,500 unmanned tanks rolled around, they were nothing but scrap metal in front of a monster, and the sun was just coming down from the top of their heads.
Naturally, the additional buff from [Moonlight (Moonlight)] could not be used.
In addition to this, the battle site was a desert terrain in midsummer. The heat approaching 44 degrees was also adding to the burden.
“This is a pretty terrible environment. I feel as if my stamina is running out in pieces.”
“Bur, would you like a buff?”
[Temperature control issues will be handled by the support team. For now, focus on the battle in front of you.]
“Yes. As the support team said, I’ll ask you in the middle of the battle. Let’s hold on for now.”
Tanks matter more than anyone else, so Rajit Shahi shows signs of exhaustion despite the presence of a thermostat in his thick armor.
However, even better than Russian tankers, which are vulnerable to the heat, Valeria Andreyeva in the reserve was literally melting in half.
“Нормально (are you okay)?”
“… I am fine.”
“I asked because I thought you weren’t feeling well.”
“… … .”
If I had known it would be like this, I would have brought someone with water or ice abilities.
I couldn’t pay attention because I had never been to a proper desert, especially in midsummer.
From now on-
<… There is a skill before the trait. Use the ‘Apostle of Water’ to pour a bowl of cold water on it.>
that doesn’t sound right
What I’m talking about is a support-only special ability.
The members of this raid shouldn’t use their abilities for something like this, and it was more important to take care of Venetus than tanks.
<Why are you suddenly like this? Even the blue crabs are on the verge of being almost frozen. I heard that it smells delicious somewhere, and it was Venetus.>
“… … .”
<Is that all? Scorpio is also vulnerable in the desert. At least it’s holding up better than Venetus, but it’s as if its superpowers are sealed.>
However, the more my heart is beaten, the more it resists. Soon, I approached the two tanks and took out the [Apostle of Water].
As soon as the canteen was exposed to the bottom, it was to supply only drinking water right away.
“… Thank you. I can live for a while.”
[Switch to Formation A. Move forward in front of the remote dealer.]
Then, all of a sudden, a command is sent through the earphones to see if the time has come.
If you mumble in a thin high-pitched tone, it is not a dedicated channel, but an integrated channel.
[The distance from the monster is 2.2 kilometers. 50 seconds to reach the wire. Missile and naval gun support is scheduled at the 1 kilometer point. Please refer to the flame-type combatants.]
Naturally, the ADs of Project L also walk forward.
Before long, sand spurted up from everywhere with a sound like tearing clouds.
“… My vision has narrowed.”
“I’ll get it out soon. Besides, there are a lot of enemies, so you don’t have to worry about effective hits.”
Ordinary mountainous topography would be dusty, but sandpits would be much worse. As I involuntarily spit out my words to myself, Rajit Shahi ticks off an answer.
Indeed, the first strike was a naval gun, and the follow-up was a missile that drew a line in the sky.
Before being caught by the claws of the flying monsters, everything exploded at a certain point, and at the right time, fire-type supernatural powers came out and created a huge flame.
“It is spectacular.”
“… Yeah.”
The ensuing scene is enough to evoke exclamations.
Five whirlwinds made of pure flame.
Read from noble mtl dot com
Monsters with a large size, level 5 or higher, withstood, but lower level or relatively small monsters were swept away.
In addition to this, the sand dust that covered the view also disappeared.
But, as is always the case with battlefields, things didn’t go as planned.
<Come.>
“… … .”
“… Trokilgigas.”
The giant, who appeared along with the silence of the tankers, moved while ignoring the whirlwind of flame.
The flame that rose up to the chest must have been hot.
He didn’t even try to squeeze through the cracks, he just pushed his body to put the pillar of fire to rest.
Trokilgigas is 25 meters tall.
It was a size that made not only humans but also whirlwinds look shabby.
“Am I supposed to kill him?”
“… I have good news though. The whirlwind didn’t hit the shield. It seems like a direct hit.”
“No shield? Then the conditions are the same as ours.”
“right.”
But anyway, the massive body moved forward without hesitation.
gradually increase its size.
thump, thump, thump.
And just like that, by the time the tension runs to its peak in line with the sound of footsteps echoing on the ground. The concentration of the wizards was disturbed and the whirlwind disappeared.
Now the distance between the two sides is only 4,500 meters.
[Stop Deal! Formation B, in front of tankers excluding the main raid!]
This is the beginning of a group war.
* * *
Operation plans are executed perfectly without a single mistake.
Above the clear open field.
Close-up class heroes blocked the front, and unmanned tanks rushed to both sides rolling caterpillars.
This meant that this battle was effectively a race against time, as it was intended to attract the monsters’ attention by pouring money (I don’t know how much per unit).
However, the core of the battle has no choice but to be Trokilgigas, so my eyes are directed to the center of the battlefield, to Team Fate’s chief of engineering.
[Allied wide-area attack aircraft release imminent!]
[Be careful not to be swept away by the aftermath!]
As the tactical support team warned, Philippe Noiré’s upper body was glowing.
If there’s a reason I chose to run away only through caves and urban centers in my previous life, it’s because of that damn light beam.
By the time the six jewels in his chest finished amplifying, even Trokilgigas was staring at him.
“… Light of the Onder River, punish those who try to steal the fruit of decline. only death.”
Star of Doom.
As befits an awakening period with a world-renowned reputation, the beam of light extending in a straight line hits the body of a giant. It makes the huge body stagger.
“Wow!”
“Good!”
“Push it like this!”
purr!
In the midst of this, the sandstorm pierced my eyeballs in the aftermath of the large-scale technology, but I did not take my eyes off it even though I covered it with my forearm.
It only staggered me, but failed to penetrate. Contrary to the cheers of the idiots, it was not a success.
<Still, it definitely caught my attention.>
As the parrot said, if there is anything gained, it is the interest of the monster.
The guy reacted reliably to the menacing attack and strode into the camp, leaving behind the group of monsters that followed.
So the next step is… retreat.
“Get out of the way!”
To isolate the front line from the main target, the members of Team Fate stand far back.
The distance to be dragged is at least 700 meters.
“Get the gap! Be careful!”
“Check aggro!”
In response, spearman Agima Jaya and tanker Gerard walk a tightrope in a precarious position, and magician Regina Rosanna diverts the monster’s attention whenever it is really dangerous.
Under the help of its own reserve and supplementary forces, it fought to divide the battlefield into two branches.
And I didn’t do anything
It was because he stood back about 200 meters away without worrying about being trampled on by the soles of his feet or pulling out a group of hummingbirds from his body.
[Lee Yong-soo, Project L is the third position of the main strategy team. Back off a bit more. There is a concern that the movement line overlaps with the supplementary stand on the Team Fate side.]
“… Yes.”
what.
Honestly, the main raid is doing pretty well.
He was so good at diverting the monster’s attention that he did no real damage, even in dangerous situations.
It wasn’t that there was almost no skill gap between the main and reserve corps like Project L, but at least it was 3rd grade.
I was on my way thanks to the help of elementals, wizards, and all sorts of strengthening-type auxiliary abilities.
After moving one kilometer like that, Team Fate changed formation at once and took three directions.
<It’s neat. If you do well, I’ll blow your nose without touching you.>
“… … .”
Well.
That remains to be seen.
Around 30 minutes after the battle started.
The battlefield situation did not seem bad.
[The left wire is about to collapse. The core remains as it is, OC11 assists.]
[…] OC11, if it’s the left wire, are they Saudi guys?]
[That’s right.]
[OC11, OK. I will move right away.]
Although there were some holes as the local supernatural powers collapsed one after another, the overall picture was that the human side had the upper hand.
In addition, the main raid was also pouring a one-sided attack on Trokilgigas.
“Sylvia!”
“Passed the traits! [Reduced regeneration] and [rapid decay]!”
When a reserve witch named Sylvia casts two attributes on her, Agima Jaya throws her spear without hesitation.
A gloomy indigo light shimmered on the blade of the spear, and soon it became lodged in the monster’s calf and had a significant effect.
Quadruped!
The giant’s grip sweeps the floor, but the melee dealer has already escaped. In the meantime, a lightning attack flew in from behind with the sound of something breaking.
Team Fate has been performing perfect pattern attacks for about 30 minutes.
“Did you see it now? He is a person with electric powers named Williams, and although he is not as talented as I am, he is a promising talent at a fairly early age. this year… Were you twenty-two? It will be anyway.”
“… … .”
But I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. The first time I had doubts was when Philip Noire’s awakening was released.
<Right. It’s magic resistance. It’s not that the shield was broken at Fort Allerard, it was there from the beginning. When a first-class monster gets closer to its finished form, it usually becomes like that. you know that too?>
yes.
The first-class monster, Draco, was the same.
This is difficult.
“I wonder if it has physical resistance.”
<Perhaps.>
“… … .”
<However, as I said before, it is close to completion, but not complete. It seems that the magic resistance has reached the minimum level, but the physical resistance is… I’ll have to check it out.>
And just in time.
As if he had overheard the parrot’s answer, Trokilgigas’ body collapsed.
It’s phase 2.
