Chapter 681 – The Subjugation of Askatlov

[God of Fire: Yay. Minister.]
[God of Pleasure: How long has this large-scale battle been…]
[Water God: Where did Nanar go?]
[God of War: You must be running away from her.]
[God of Music: Ah. A tune suitable for the prelude to war. I’ll pull one out…!]
[God of Art: Me too. Why don’t we start with the lyrics, die gadre?]
[God of Restoration: Yes!]

All 999 gods started watching the game.
Excluding complete newbies or those who fell short of the standard, most of the existing users participated, and it was natural that it was a large-scale battle after a long time.

These days, Frostia, the forgotten god’s attempted resurrection, the main god being cut by a human, and the divine realm almost being destroyed by a human, etc. In the midst of all this and that, this game was pretty sweet.

I decided to put aside the thought that somehow all the big events seemed to have been fucked by one human being.

[God of Order: Phase 1~]
[God of Plague: 1 degree is quite strong?]
[God of the Forge: …]
[God of Naga: I have no energy. Heston.]
[God of the forge: No, I’m a little worried. Can they… Notice?]

While the gods were actively discussing, the top-ranking godhead barely opened his mouth.
Just quietly watching

Royal.
In the palace of Sers, there was a system to see the situation outside the castle in preparation for invasion by foreign enemies.

The sight outside the castle, illuminated by a magical hologram, made Nicholas half-conscious.

“Huh…!”

The monsters are endless.
Black waves. Or tsunami.
Beast-type monsters roaring the earth protruding non-stop from the darkness.
The beautiful grassland is destroyed just by their running.
No, the meadow is already empty and there are magic stones emitting ominous light.

Nicholas was stunned.
He had been told the truth of the oracle by Eniris, his wife and queen, only a few hours before.
He was the one who half-caught the word, what is this end-of-the-century sight?

“Can our barriers withstand that attack?”
“That… I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. It’s a very sturdy barrier…”

One of the servants awkwardly opened his mouth and tried to reassure him, but the other objected.

“I agree that the design is meticulous and robust, but I’ve never imagined an enemy of that size. In particular, looking at the appearance of the monsters, they seem to be at least a B-class monster…”
“The siege guns mounted on the walls are not decorative!”
“How useful would that be to those countless monsters? Your Majesty. How about preparing to escape in case of emergency?”

“It’s okay.”

A clear voice that puts an end to the anxiety of the servants.
Nicholas, who was holding the throne tightly, is the owner of the voice who has just entered the throne room. Seeing his wife Eniris, he asked hastily.

“It’s okay? Is there any reason?”
“We’ve figured out the current situation. They say there won’t be any problems, at least today.”
“Today…? Got it?”

What and where did you figure it out?
Right now, he and his servants hastily summoned them when they heard that an enormous army of monsters was coming.

Come to think of it, Eniris seemed strangely in a good mood yesterday. Where did she get a good source of information?

“We have prepared a response befitting the soldiers. Your Majesty. We believe that we must request assistance from nearby countries as soon as possible.”
“Support… Yes. Support. You will need it…”
“Even if that’s not the case, the Holy Kingdom and the Empire are already sending troops. But that alone will not be enough. This calamity is not limited to Sers, and they want to end it in Sers as much as possible, so I think they will be cooperative.”

Seeing Eniris sorting out the situation, the servants were relieved, and Nicholas… Felt a little jealous.

“But what about the current situation, so you’re okay?”

A hoarse voice came out of me.
Eniris noticed her husband’s feelings and smiled discreetly, wanting to apologize.

“The combination of transcendent people from the other world is more powerful than you can imagine.”

Kuwaaaaa!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
Pajijijijik!
So, so, so, so, so!
Wooded deed deuk!
Aaaaa!
More
Whooooo!!

The soldiers standing on the walls of Sers were at a loss for words.

An order from above has been given.
The content was very simple, but it was ‘the transcendent people of the other world will support you, so don’t block their access’.
But, this isn’t about support.

“Ha ha! Die!!”
“Stupid monsters!!”

Skills scattered by users. Magic.
The skill of well over a thousand veteran users was a disaster itself.

Lightning. Fire. Ice. Meteor. Glacier. Gravity. Laser. Up to the mighty sand giants.

The special thing about users is that they can easily use powerful powers without learning any particular knowledge.
The reason why Elyunar’s merits were fading was that when dealing with super-strong players, all of those powerful perks and skills were blocked by Ryunar, but at least there was no limit at all right now.

They were all hard and powerful monsters.
I don’t know, but if those thousands of troops started crashing into the barrier, the wall would collapse quickly.

However, before the monsters even approached the castle, they were broken and raged.
Thunderstorms, volcanoes, and sand soared to cover tens of thousands of monsters.

An incomprehensible sight devoid of reality.

Doo doo doo doo…

The number of monsters coming in seemed to decrease, but the end was in sight before I knew it.

“Get out of the way.”

Paltra ranked 6th in the user rankings.
She showed off her queenly dignity just by walking in a dress similar to that of a pharaoh.
Paltra raised her hand.

Charalarat.

Huge balls of sand gathered in the sky and shot to the floor.
The sand turned into bugs and began to gnaw away the monsters in an instant.

The monsters, which had strong defense and withstood the skills of the users to some extent, were helplessly broken and smashed.

That’s how all the monsters disappeared.

“Wow-!!”
“Win!!”

The soldiers let out cheers of joy.
A small number of users were also mixed in and showed signs of joy.

But… The majority of users did not let go of tension at all.

It’s not over yet.
Something…

[Poo-oo-.]

Thud.

Earthquake?
No, something that could be so misleading.

“…What is that?”
“Uh…?”

Something huge, almost the size of a castle wall, the size of a baseball field in modern terms, thumped. Kung was walking this way.

It was an elephant
Something that looks like an elephant made of sharp magic stones.
The elephant, wondering if it was a living creature, was looking at the castle wall from the edge of the darkness, emitting magic power so powerful that it was dizzying… Kung. Thud. Backed away

“Is this a preview for phase 2? Let’s see next time. How does it feel?”
“Maybe.”

Immediately after the users calmly finished the conversation.

Tring!

[Stage 1 siege has been successful!]
[Thank you all for your hard work!]
[Subjugation Points are paid according to each person’s achievements!!]
[There are items that can be purchased with subjugation points in the subjugation tab in the shop!!]

Whoa.
Then, the users who let go of the hour.

“Did you say it was phase 1 today? How many phases will there be?”
“I don’t know. But… The level is higher than I thought.”

Phase 1 is probably more like a tutorial.
Even so, the monster had withstood the attacks of the users very well.

“I think I can overwhelm you up to Phase 3.”
“After that… I don’t know. What is that elephant you saw earlier?”
“If you look at the information posted by Yeodere, he says he’s the king of beasts, isn’t that right?”
“Maybe.”

[Ranking revealed!]

Ranking?
At the words that could not be ignored, the users suddenly stopped and looked at the system window.

While everyone was looking for their own name, the name that came in first place made them blink their eyes.

“Eh? What is it?”
“Eeeing?”

1st place: Anonymous. Acquired 500 subjugation points.
2nd Place: Faltra. Acquired 300 subjugation points.
3rd place: President…

The community was excited.

[Why is 1st place still a dick?]
[Aren’t there any fucks you did other than that bastard’s speech?]
[Envy ON]
[Fuck pimples. It’s jealousy and I don’t understand it with common sense. Instead of fighting, the bastard who went to the front line for a while took first place?]
[I asked you, and he said that he received a lot of points for notifying the attack on Sers Palace, evacuating users, and cooperating.]
[Ha, Mr. Did you get a fucking grade for conducting?]
[Then what are the normal combatants…]
[That’s fucking unfair.]
[You bastards. Shut up and tell me It’s still the first day, but there are so many complaints.]
[Really. If we complain, the system will change it?]
[I really need to destroy the fucker…]
[No, idiots haha, if you twist them, you know the information in advance and make connections with high-ranking people haha]
[Muhhhhh]
[Muhhhhh]
[Please destroy those bastards…]

***

“Randa!”

Raina smiled brightly and told me about her community reaction and I nodded.

“It’s not good…”

I never thought they would give points to the ranking system.
It’s good to give players a reward to fight with enthusiasm, but…

“I’m sure there will be people who act more than necessary because of the score.”

I turned my head at the sound of a low voice next to me.
Let’s meet eyes? Yes? The fighting that makes a sound is beauty Mai.

“…What is it?”
“…”
“…Chit.”

Maiya turns her head away saying that she is a bad luck.
Bitch…

“No. That…”

I knew you would do what you were thinking. Would you be angry if I said that?
Anyway, as Maya said.
Ranking system and subjugation.

I don’t know, but the higher the rank in the rankings, the stronger the final reward will be.

As well as points.
First of all, the contents added to the store described by the system were as follows.

[Acquiring some monster information 50 subjugation points]
[Ranking achievement score increase by 10 subjugation points]
[1000 subjugation points for accepting quests related to Askatlov subjugation]
[Related Quest Hint 500 Subjugation Points]
[3 seconds invincibility, 300 subjugation points (does not work for King of Beasts or higher.]
[200 subjugation points designated as safety points (If you are within the safe point, your physical strength. The mana recovery rate increases greatly and is also designated as a return point.)]
[Return (Move to a designated safe point) 30 Token Battle Points]
[Partial information of Indestructible Verdure, 800 subjugation points]

Roughly like this.
Accept monster information or quests. Even a hint is good.
But the problem is that the achievement score increases.
If this continues, the atmosphere will deteriorate in an instant.

The mood right now is still good.
The other day I gave a speech…
[Speech?]
[Wasn’t it a threat?]
…Ignoring the words of the Quan Yin Dragon and the Quan Yin God, whether my famous speech had an effect, all I did was find out information or designate a safety point rather than raising the immediate public value.

But today is the first day.
The score was also very tight, with users in the top 100 receiving only 30 points.
There are no complaints yet because there are few visible differences.
But soon, if there is an opportunity to get a large amount of points, there will be people who put their own interests first.

For example, obtaining low achievement points.
Since the score of the subjugation battle to obtain the public value is only 10 points, he will suffer from temptation.
Furthermore, being able to buy information about monsters is nice, but it’s not very efficient.

I bought it as a test, but some monster’s arm is sharp and has some function… It’s all information, and it doesn’t tell you all of it, but only part of it.
It is a defragmentation method in which the system updates when partial information is collected and complete information is obtained.

However, this monster’s information. In particular, the King’s information will be very important.
Efficiency may feel low right now, but it will be necessary later.
It’s just my intuition.

However, users are already considering it as a nameless option.

Returning is also a problem.
I’m going to go after the ass while fighting. If you want to, there will be people who will run away right away.

Quests and hints, such as information about the king of monsters, have so many points that I can’t even think about it now.

I can feel the insidious malice towards the person who created this system…
At first glance, it looks like it is intended to increase the motivation of users, but in fact it is full of elements that disrupt cooperation.

“What are you going to do with the points? In the first place, what are we going to do in the future?”

I appreciate that Maya’s tone is flat.
In fact, from her point of view, she has nothing to say even if she argues and listens.
This is because our leader, Kitz, who is supposed to give us instructions, is absent.
The guy suddenly disappeared as soon as the subjugation started.

Well, it’s not like he didn’t leave me a word.

Near the 2nd gateway to Sers. The demon king is scheduled to appear at coordinates 20001920. Timing is unknown.

I left only this information.
It is clear that Yuna is talking about the invasion of demon kings, including the demon king of Yeon Ji-ok.
I’m leaving the ticking time bomb…

“First of all, we always have at least one person on standby at the point where the Demon King will appear. We also set up a safety point there. For the subjugation battle… We plan to keep an eye on the situation.”
“So that we can gather by returning in case of emergency? But is it true that demon lords are coming?”
“Yes.”

At the firm answer, Maya narrowed her eyes and said yes. She did and she turned her head back.

“Is the subjugation battle over if we block endless monsters like yesterday?”
“Perhaps. And since the monsters aren’t attacking Sers for no reason, it should be considered that the game is over even if a non-God King monster touches the monument, right?”

In fact, it is skeptical how monsters will rise to the floating island in the sky if the warp gate leading to the floating island is cut off.
There must be another way, but…

“First… Let’s use all my points.”
“Ok?”

As 1st place, I earned a total of 500 points.
All of those points were invested in ‘Monster Information’.

“Is that okay?”
“Can I get 500 points in the future?”

Right now, I had a strong idea of ​​stabbing rather than cooperating first.
Seeing how the users react will determine my future moves.

“…Ouch.”
“Hmm?”
“Obviously, information is important.”

I thought it was only giving information on the monsters I had seen, but it was written like this in the information I obtained and printed out on the system.

[‘Siege Tank’ appearing from Phase 5]
The monster’s ATK and DEF increase!]

It would be embarrassing if the monsters suddenly became stronger.
If you have this information, an accident such as destroying a nearby tank becomes possible.

Let’s post all this information to the community for now.
And preparing for phase 2.

And exactly the next night. The second invasion of monsters has begun.

[Phase 2 begins!]

It wasn’t much different from the day before.
A small increase in defense power, and yesterday, only a small amount of monsters came from one direction, but the other gates were all.

However, last.

[Poo-oo-!!]

Muddy water shot out like a waterfall from the trunk of the elephant that appeared slightly at the end of phase 1.

And the wall-like magic stone that towered around Sers.

Aaaaah

The water, which has lost its place to go and is stuck in the wall, gradually fills up.
Are you going to head it…?

[Pooooo.]

When the water was half full, the elephant withdrew.
This is probably a preview.
Warning that phase 3 won’t be fun if it’s just Mercury like it used to be.

Phase 3 seems to be different from phases 1 and 2.
I’ll have to prepare in advance.

And that night.
In the name of Blizzard and the royal palace, Maya and Adele were captured.
Was the crime assaulting someone?

…Ha fuck.
Are you a politician again? Nari, our president.

But me sidere.
A man who can’t stand a sweet potato even for a second.
[? Drehem?]
[You?]

Ignored the two insidious slanderers and brought them back.

In the process, it made Nicholas’ mouth bleed and suffocated Nova.

Phew. Quick fix!
