Chapter 367 – 367. Struggle and Struggle (15)
– One –
Inside the shaking Stras-Ayla,
Whoops!
“Turn it off…!”
According to the laws of physics, Vladnok flies up.
Even if you board an aircraft, you are only stepping on it, and you cannot fly on your own.
Therefore, a fall immediately after flight is inevitable.
Also,
“Pretty dear!”
Boo woo woo!
The fear that humans feel when falling is natural.
Puck!
Whoops!
Slam!
Rocking, rocking!
Hehe…!”
Fear of feeling acceleration in midair is a common reaction to most of humanity, but the amount of shock it accumulates in the body varies from person to person.
Vladnok had a huge body, so he couldn’t help but be shocked more than others.
His eyes roll,
“Kuk, 븝!
Chaaaaagh!
At every meal, he regurgitates as much food as he ate.
That’s right, that’s that!
Kurrrr.
However, vibrations do not stop easily.
He was covered in vomit, his tears and mucus dripping.
‘It’s safe… ! When I said nothing would happen… !’
Because of the pain that shuddered through his whole body, he couldn’t even properly recognize his own face.
The pain shakes his body so much that it is difficult to breathe properly.
‘Even, you have to run away… ! If you continue like this, you will be accused of being a traitor… !’
He instinctively senses that the situation is unusual.
The civic organizations he runs must always strike a good balance between the aristocratic faction, the emperor faction, and the civic class and the wealthy.
Just like riding a single rope dangerously at high altitude without safety equipment, there should be no bias to either side.
As the members do not have any inherent ability, and their original identity is to live parasitically between the powerful and the wealthy, it was natural that he, as the representative of a civic group, had an extraordinary sense of humor.
‘But where? How could you escape… !’
But that was all.
Although he had an extraordinary sense of grasping the situation, he had no ability to put the solution into practice.
On the battlefield, especially in the face of an emergency, he was just a fat old man.
It was pitiful and ugly.
– 2 –
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Woojijik, wooooong!
The steel wall is torn.
Come crashing down.
“Lord!”
That’s right!
Absinthe jumps inside the messy bridge and looks around his head.
In one corner,
“Ouch…”
Regal passed out, bleeding from his forehead.
When the ground beneath Strass Isla collapsed, the impact shook Strass Ayla’s torso, as if it had hit her head somewhere.
Shashak!
“Lord!”
“Turn it off…”
As if her brain had been shaken up, Regal couldn’t come to her senses easily.
Swoop.
Absinthe takes out a magic tool for short-range communication.
“Send medical staff and therapists to the bridge immediately. Master’s body is damaged.”
– Yes!
Immediately after giving the order,
Swoop.
Thud.
Put the sofa that has fallen on one side back into place.
Swoop.
Took.
He lifts the Regal and carefully lays it down on the sofa.
Make sure Regal is breathing evenly, then examine the floor for signs of vomiting.
“…”
Clean.
Whoops, whoops.
I open both of Regal’s eyes to check.
The pupils are the same size.
No serious concussion symptoms.
“Whoa…”
Jerk, jerk, jerk.
He breathes a sigh of relief and approaches his window.
Lord Malaga put his magical engineering knowledge to the fullest and developed tempered glass with hardness and elasticity beyond common sense, and attached it to the windows of Stras-Ayla.
It fell down several meters, but the shock that was not relieved by the shock absorber swept the inside of the fuselage, and not a single glass of the window was broken.
Thanks to that, Regal may have stopped with minor injuries.
Swoop.
Turn your gaze and look down.
Combat agents and enlisted men fight intertwinedly with the Imperial forces.
At the head of them is the brigadier general who was negotiating with him.
The brigadier tried to hold on to his ankle until the end.
However, Absinthe was able to barely escape by putting in six special combat personnel.
“Did they all die…”
Absinthe regretted jumping up to the bridge out of concern for Regal’s safety.
If he had sent his men to check Regal’s safety, the six elite combatants would not have lost their lives.
And there wouldn’t have been so many casualties now.
If he had reacted more rationally, he would have been able to preserve the troops his master had trained.
If he had handled it more calmly, it might not have led to such a catastrophe in the first place.
‘To think that an attack would fly in the middle of negotiations… Too exquisite for a coincidence. Out of sight of us, or perhaps a spy was operating inside us.’
An ominous anticipation creeps in.
There is a sense of impatience, and I promise to quickly sort out the situation.
Jerk, jerk, jerk.
“I’ve brought medical staff and healers! Where is my lord?”
A combat agent enters with a doctor and a priest.
Absinthe looks at them, pointing to the sofa.
“Stay by my lord’s side until he wakes up. And thoroughly defend this place.”
“Yes! Do you intend to return to the battlefield?”
Absinthe nods his head.
“I think I can be safe only when I wipe them all out and come back. And…”
Absinthe cuts him off.
Look around.
Woo woo woo woo!
Medical staff examine Regal’s body, and the healer pours divine power into Regal’s body.
There are too many ears to hear.
Swallow the horse
“No, no. Just make sure to ‘thoroughly’ protect your lord’s safety. Do you understand?”
I just put a strong emphasis on the word ‘thoroughly’ while giving strength to the eyes.
With that alone, the combat agent nodded thoughtfully, his eyes shining, as if he understood Absinthe’s concerns.
“Okay. Don’t worry about this place, please clean up those weightlifters and come back.”
“I believe you.”
Poof!
Tat tat tat!
Absinthe runs from the bridge.
To sort things out, they go out to scatter death.
– 3 –
The rear, somewhat distant from the fierce frontline, where bones are broken and limbs are flying, and blood is gushing out.
Mages and sorcerers gather in one place,
“…”
“…!…”
Ordering constantly.
Until the cold autumn fields were heated with the warmth of the flowing blood, they hadn’t fired a single shot of magic or spells.
It was entirely the result of the judgment made by the commander of the mage unit and the commander of the shaman unit.
They interpreted the given task somewhat broadly.
It was judged that it would be difficult to overturn the immediate situation simply by firing magic or spells.
Outnumbered numbers, physical burden, morale drop due to the commander-in-chief’s betrayal and the death of the actual commander-in-chief, and even the overwhelming mass of projectiles fired by unknown means of transportation.
Because there was no other way, and there was no retreat, the imperial army chose an all-out war, but they clearly realized that if they fought head-on, they would be defeated.
So they tried to turn the tide of the war at once by forcing the Regal side to face the same situation as the Imperial Army.
That means,
Jiying, Jiying!
Whoa!
“…”
“…”
It was a single joint chant that squeezed mana to the limit.
Unfortunately, sorcery and magic could not be mixed, so the shaman and wizard troops had no choice but to sing together separately.
However, the joint chanting conducted in units of 10,000 people,
Whoa oh oh!
Whoop, whoop!
It began to contain unprecedented, overwhelming power.
Just by performing the chant, the atmosphere boiled with mana.
The precursory phenomenon alone seemed to show off that their magic contained enough power to blow up the whole area.
Woo woo woo woo!
Oh oh oh oh oh!
A huge orb floats above the magician and shaman troops, one each.
They gradually grow in size.
It has already grown so large that no one on the battlefield has not seen it.
As if they had foreseen the fact that they would fall on their heads, the Regal troops were in awe.
Chae Chae, Chae Chae Chae!
Whoops!
“Damn! That! Stop them!”
Among the Regal’s combat personnel, high-ranking officials of the rank of commander or higher shouted.
Screaming
They were not afraid of that huge crystal of violence falling on their heads.
No.
I was afraid of that too, but I was even more afraid that it was headed for Stras-Ayla.
They were most afraid of hurting their lord.
But,
Whoops, whoops.
Chuck, Chuck, Chuck!
Hehe. Do you think we’ll let our wizards and sorcerers go?”
“Let’s die together, you traitor bastards!”
“I’ll obstruct you until the end, just watch your traitor leader explode to death!”
Imperial soldiers block the path to the rear of the Imperial forces with their whole bodies.
It is to desperately hinder them from heading.
The Imperial Army soldiers were also clearly aware that the projectiles of the joint chant that the wizards and shamans would shoot were their lifeline.
“Mr. Ri, the leader of the treason, must have become a dick~”
“Yeah~ When the fire broke out, you ran away in a hurry, saying that you would live alone~ This time, it’s obvious that dangerous things like that will come flying~ but you can’t even run away~? It’s strange~?”
“It’s strange, what’s strange! Just now, when there’s a sound like “Kwagwang!”, The carriage must be broken!”
“Uh, but is that a wagon?”
“Hmm… Well, let’s call it a giant transparent cart!”
Haha!
Regal is ridiculed by every member of the Imperial Army, from those of relatively high rank to those of the lowest rank.
Even while watching Regal’s poor behavior, they had to suppress their antipathy due to the realistic problem of class differences.
The antipathy towards Regal that he had suppressed so much finally started to burst out.
Hard, hard, hard!
Deuk Deuk!
Regal enlisted men and operatives grind their teeth.
They gripped their weapons in a crushing way, and the cartilage of their fingers rang with a continuous bursting sound.
Their anger manifests itself in a variety of sounds.
“Go, dare!”
“I’ll chew you guys up!”
Their eyes glint.
Their anger turned all at once on the soldiers of the Imperial Army.
‘It’s true that Regal’s limbs can’t stand insults toward Regal.’
‘If I just hold on to them so they don’t go to the rear, the tide will be reversed!’
Those who led the ridicule against Regal were quick-witted officers in the Imperial Army.
Based on rumors about the Regal, they focused the attention of the enemy forces on themselves.
The effect of the provocation was great.
“Gaaaaagh!”
“Die aaaaagh!”
Doo doo doo doo!
Regal’s troops rushed in unison.
To pass the time,
Sreuk, Chuck!
Clap, Clap, Clap!
The Imperial Army forces scrum all at once.
With the ranks aligned, prepare to enter the Earth War.
At that time,
Papa papa papa pat!
Woo woo woo woo!
“Uh, uh…?”
Absinthe runs towards them with terrifying momentum.
Chwack, chwaaaaak!
“Quaaaaagh!”
It runs in a straight line while cutting down everything that gets in the way.
The direction was exactly north, and the destination was a place where magicians and shamans were chanting together.
Found him,
“That, that guy! That guy is the enemy general!”
“Don’t let him pass!”
The Imperial Army officers shout until their throats burst.
They knew how strong the warden was, and even though he was exhausted, they felt keenly how strong the absinthe was that killed him with absurd ease.
So, it was no wonder that their voices were filled with fear and despair.
However, absinthe
Wow!
Kwajik!
After taking a strong step,
Weeeee!
Woo woo woo woo!
“Uh…?”
He jumped over the heads of the soldiers in the front line at once.
Everyone’s eyes turn to him.
Dull eyes follow his back.
Whii profit!
Before long, however, like all wingless things, it also parabolates and falls over the heads of the Imperial soldiers.
“Die!”
Shush shush shush!
Chaechaechaeng!
Dozens of spear blades flew towards his feet.
Get tangled up
That moment,
“Suck!”
Puffup!
As Absinthe spewed aura several times, alternating with both feet,
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
In other words, fuhuaaaaagh!
Chae-chaeng, Chae-chae-chaeng!
“Gaaaaagh!”
“Ahhhhh!”
Soldiers’ bodies explode at his feet.
It is compacted.
He used the reaction as a driving force,
Whii profit!
He soars up into the sky again.
Boom, puffer pung!
Aaaaagh!
The same thing is repeated several times.
No one can stop him properly.
He was running faster than his arrows, so it’s pointless to keep him in check with a bow.
Fault.
As soon as I crossed the phosphorus barrier made up of soldiers of the Imperial Army,
Shasha shak!
Woo woo woo!
He landed on the ground and started running without hesitation.
There were no hindrances between him and the wizards and shamans.
‘I will never allow any threat to reach my lord…’ … !’
Whoops!
Absinthe gritted his teeth.
As soon as he descended to clear things up, he sensed mana condensing on an unusual scale in the projectiles created by the joint chant.
He intuitively noticed that the magic and sorcery fired by the Imperial Army could penetrate Stras Eila’s defense system at once.
He also intuitively felt that no one could stop it in time, except for himself.
For Regal’s safety, his first priority was to destroy the joint stockade himself.
Shashak!
Sureureung!
He pulls out a dagger from his waistband.
It was a short dagger with the center of gravity at the end of the blade, as if it were originally designed for throwing.
He on it,
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Load aura to the limit.
It wasn’t meant to be wielded, so I didn’t consider the durability limit.
Blah blah blah!
The blade is cracked.
Whoaaaaagh!
A tangible aura burns like a flame.
Overflowing
“…!”
Wizards find it.
Shamans also find it a little later.
Their commanders,
[Launch aaaaa!]
[Ejaculation!]
Whoa!
Geeeee
Interrupt the chant and immediately give the command to launch the projectile.
“…!…!…!”
“…!…!…!”
Sorcerers and shamans begin to squeeze mana.
A race for time between the two sides began.
