Chapter 327 – Time to Hunt

Chapter 327 Time to Hunt

[Philip, die here.]

This is one of the instructions given to Blücher, who was in charge of the temporary command of the 7th Corps.

[When you arrive at the rear supply base, open this envelope.
Before that, never open it.]

I believed that Blucher, an honest true soldier, would do as he was commanded without saying anything.
After opening the envelopes and pretending to be carrying military provisions, they secretly circled and ambush them.
And when I tore up the order book and sent a signal through the pillar of light, Blucher responded in good time.

“Good work, Blucher.”

“I was worried.
I thought I would never see the iron mask again.
Are you being pursued too realistically?”

“Who am I?
All postponed.
Big!
Did you get the position of the battery well?”

“Yes.
Placement was completed as written in the letter you gave.
I also prepared plenty of incendiary bullets.
Oh, and the words you were told to write are also written on a tree that has been stripped of its bark.
I guess you should have worn a plan card too?
Do you like them?”

“No, good job.
Very good die
Start.
Pour in your firepower.”

“John name!
All batteries, TOT shooting!
The shells are incendiary!
Use this forest as firewood and roast your enemies!
The fire control officer must control thoroughly!!
The enemy must be neutralized at once!
Break the enemy’s momentum with the first shot!”

TOT.
It is an abbreviation of ‘Time on target’.
Shooting cannonballs at the same time by varying the shooting time or elevation toward the target.
Allied catapults load carefully prepared incendiary bombs, and launch them at different times from each battery on the mountain.
Shells arriving at the same time.
It exaggerates our own artillery power and easily confuses the enemy.

Tung! Thudung! Tung! Do-do-doong!
Woo woo woo… Pupper puffer puff!!!

“Battery, load incendiary bombs again!
According to the information distributed in advance, divide the area like a checkerboard and light it meticulously!
Launch!”

Tung! Tung! Tutung!
Shuuuuu… Kwak Kwa Kwak! Quaang! Phew!

“Aagh!! Fire, fire!
Turn it off! Aww!”

“Fire!
It’s a trap!”

“Don’t panic!
Step back!”

Enemies falling into confusion.
Alberic’s assault force and Philip-kun, who had entered too deep, lost their way and wandered.
Still don’t know where we are
If you don’t know, you must be right!

TOT shooting can be done at different angles.
Balak’s giant soldiers sent to the hills in advance threw fireballs like shot puts.
The first shot is high, the second shot is appropriate.
To arrive at the target at approximately the same time.

“I am a wizard!
Create a delayed fireball in front of the giant troops!
Giant troops, put the fireballs in front of you in your equipment and throw them!”

Just like the materials I saw in Master’s lab, delaying the activation of magic is a field that can be used not only in academic fields, but also in military science.
If you make a fireball with magic and throw it yourself, the range is short.
However, if you delay the explosion to the critical point according to the number of rotations of the fire chakra, it becomes an excellent shell for catapults or giant soldiers to shoot.
Shells that wizards can create in real time, without having to go to the forest or mountain.
If you use giant soldiers, you can fire quickly even during the catapult’s reloading time, so it’s a good way to fill in the gaps in artillery fire.

Booong, Booong, Booong… Whoo!
Shuuuuu… Puffup! Bang! Kuang!

“Aagh!!
Fire, put out the fire!!”

“Coke, Coke!
Smoke… The smoke is strange… !”

“It’s poison… !
Don’t smoke!
There are poisonous plants that produce toxic fumes when burned!!”

“Where the hell are you shooting?!”

“Excuse me! Shoot from the mountain on the right!”

“Something is coming from the hill on the left!”

“Damn! The catapult is on the mountain on the right!
Ball Alberic!
Please!”

“Joy!
Phillip, you must stop the giant thrower up there on the hill!
Come on, follow me!
‘Shadow of Death’, Alberic is out!”

The moment I was about to climb up like that.

“Now the hunt begins.”

Ridge! Ridge! Ridge! Ridge!

“Drum… ?”

“Mr.
It’s behind, behind… !”

Aaaaa!!
Woo woo woo… !!!
Woof woof!!
Nyan Nyan!!
Big walala rock!!

“No, that… ?”

“It’s a beast disease! They are beasts!!”

“Eh, it’s the 1st Corps of the Demon King’s Army!”

“No, what do you think… !
Didn’t those guys scatter and run away… ?”

Whoop whoop.
Beasts are a group that moves by tribe.
Gathering and scattering is life for them.
Even if we run away, we will quickly gather and strike back.
It’s a flaw to unite as a minority group.

Besides, the forest is a space for beast warriors.
For the beastmen who have turned into beasts, the forest is not a narrow and inconvenient space, but a hunting ground where they can maneuver in three dimensions.

“Aagh!”

“Watch out for the tree!
It’s a beast disease!
Attack from above!”

“Mr.
The 2nd Corps of the enemy we were chasing has turned around and is fighting back!
They are coming down from the mountain on the right and attacking!”

“Mr.
The 7th Corps of the Demon King Army, which retreated earlier, is coming down from the hill and is attacking!”

“What… ?!
Didn’t the 7th Corps say they retreated to the rear supply base?!”

“Mo, I don’t know… !
He was obviously trying to retreat to the supply base and deliver military rice… !”

“Mr.
The forest is on fire, and individual units cannot be reached!
Wizards also drink smoke, making it difficult to cast spells!
Telepathic transmission is not possible!
Shall we wave the flag?!”

“You fool!
Can you see me waving a flag in the woods!
What a pity!
Okay… !
Wizard!
Call the dragon using the wizard!
Kill those who are under fire from the mountains and hills with dragons!
We have more troops!
If we stop the artillery support, we win… !”

Well. Is it really so?

Jiying—.

A portal opens, and a giant angel with beautiful purple hair descends.

Belt ring.

The system’s message window pops up in front of you.

[Nene Boulanger’s affinity for you has exceeded the maximum level.]

Belt ring.

[Your affinity for Nene Boulanger has exceeded the maximum level.]

Ttiring ttiring ttiring!!!

[Mutual affinity exceeds the limit!]

[The karma level of NPC ‘Kamu Franz’ is abnormally high!!]

[You can temporarily use the ‘Mate in Heaven’ effect of the possessed attribute, ‘Playboy’!]

This is it.
I know it through hacking and through experience using the fusion special move with Angela.
If you are with your lover, you can generate strength that you would not normally imagine.
With our love, we can unleash power beyond common sense… !

Ttiring ttiring ttiring ttiring!!

[Due to the saturation of Karma values, you can use ‘Material in Heaven’ and fusion special moves using Karma values.]

[When an opponent with the maximum mutual affinity uses a special move, you can temporarily use a fusion special move.]

[Currently NPC ‘Nene Boulanger”s ultimate move, ‘March of the Illusionary Army’ is being activated.]

[Would you like to use ‘Nene Boulanger’ and fusion special moves by consuming Karma? (Y/N)]

“Of course I use it.”

Ttiring ttiring ttiring ttiring ttiring ttiring!!!

[NPC ‘Kamu Franz’ accepts the fusion special move.]

[NPC ‘Nene Boulanger’ agrees to use the fusion special move.]

[The hypnotism of NPC ‘Kamu Franz’ is automatically activated.]

[Users consume the mana required to use each skill.]

[Dark blood holders, please be careful of body shrinkage due to magical exhaustion.]

Kamyu x Nene fusion special move.
A welcome army from hell!

Thud!

The flying dragons turned their heads at the sound of footsteps coming from far away.
What a strange thing.
How can a person be distracted?
No. Are mountains as tall as people?
… Huh?
A person with the same height as a mountain… ?
A man so big… Pick up the spear of lightning
A very gigantic warrior of ancient times, wearing a breastplate and belt, wearing a helmet and wearing shin guards.

Whoa! Aww!

As the giant warrior wielded a lightning sword,

Jjoong!

Lightning flew, and the green dragon’s wings broke with the sound of thunder.
Alocasia plummets to the ground at the moment.

Keaaaaa!!

“Damage! The dragon crashes!”

Kukkoom! Quadd deed… !!

“Ouch!
The platoon leader is crushed by the dragon!”

“Me, the tree is falling!”

Fast… Thick… !

“Avoid everyone!
Trees fall!”

Kwak! Kukkoom!

“What, what the hell… ?
That giant… ?”

“What a giant… Are you distracted?”

“That height… That armor… Lightning Sword… No way… !!”

“Hell’s colossus!
It’s a Titan!!”

Giant God Warrior.
Truly, an ancient race that existed only when the explorer Demon King climbed the abyss and first ascended to the wild middle-earth.
The scene where it walks around without a hitch reminds me of a fairy tale that my grandmother told me.

“No?!
Wasn’t the ‘Explorer Demon King’ sealed beyond the bottomless pit?!”

When it comes to giants taller than dragons, everyone can think of only one thing.

“That, it’s a gigantic disease!!!”

Images that come up very easily turn imagination into reality, and reality soon exerts its power.
Faith is the reality of what is hoped for.
If you believe it exists, it will soon become real.

“Eh, the demons have unsealed the giant god soldier!!!”

“Eh, run away!”

Even in the midst of this, there are people with fighting spirit everywhere.

“Don’t be agitated!
This hero Alberic is with you!
A body made of little blood and flesh!
If you cut it, you will bleed, if you stab it, you will die!
We have more troops!
Gather!”

Alberic runs among the soldiers and encourages them.

“Grandfather, that Alberic is pretty good.
What if the enemy gathers and resists?”

“Since our side did the siege, they will be driven to death.
It could burn and die.
But can’t get it together
It is extremely difficult to maintain organic communication between units in the woods and to command them.
Especially if you are being ambushed and attacked like now.
Besides, Alberic is not the commander-in-chief.
He’s the commander of the assault force.
I can’t get that whole army out.
Take a good look, Blucher.
Now that it’s time for you to become a corps commander, you should command something like this.”

“Thank you!
I didn’t bet money on the former sub-commander’s relationship!”

“Hey, I really like you!”

While Peeling Nogari on the mountain with Blucher, this time Philip takes the baton and makes a fuss.

“We also have two dragons!
Don’t be afraid!
Wizards, put out the fire with water magic!
All back!
Gather and pierce the Beast Bottle!
Fight with a long spear!
Unfold your defenses!”

The Demon King’s 1st Corps, which attacked the enemy’s rear, was a beast soldier focused on mobility and attack power.
There are relatively few wizards, and the troops are divided by tribe.
We will unite as heavy infantry to resist.
Because the number is higher there.

“It’s quite the way.
But the skill name is ‘army’?
Could you have brought just one?”

Softly… !
Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud!

Flash! Bang!
Crow, rock, rock!!

Another giant god appears next to the mountain and wields a lightning sword.

Flash! Rumble! Kukkoom!

Lightning flies at the red dragon, and the red dragon barely avoids it by blinking.

“It’s quite right.
It’s a rival that has been fighting since time immemorial, isn’t it?
But let’s see how the ground holds up.”

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

Goat-headed monsters walking behind the beastmen.
Or monsters with the faces of rams, or bulls, or lions, with bat wings and black tails.

“Oh, the devil!”

“The demons have summoned the devil from the bottomless pit!!”

He was well over 2 meters tall and had a body that made beast soldiers look small.
The demon’s illusionary army, created with Nene’s fusion special move, starts marching.

“Come on, my legion!
Advance!
Take out the hearts of your enemies and chew them, take out their livers and eat them up!”

A milf angel who leads the hell army.
What contradiction is this?
It’s an odd sight, but it’s cool nonetheless.

Aww woo woo!!
Kyaaaaa!!
Doo doo doo!!

Even when she is alone, she is no different from a military unit.
Beneath her feet as she flies in angelic clothes, the beast-human soldiers and demonic phantasmagoric army begin to run at full speed!

“Eh, run away!”

“Retreat! Retreat!”

“Mi, don’t push!”

“You fools!
Dig through that place as ordered!
Turn around and retreat to wet ground as you came!”

“There are the most enemies over there, so how do you get there?!
And besides, it’s a muddy road that way!
Retreat is nonsense!”

“What!
If the enemy breaks through before completing the siege… !”

Kwajik! Wood deuk… !

“Cow, Platoon Leader!
Mo, sore throat… !”

The Phantom Demon Soldier descended from the tree and bit off the neck of the enemy officer.
I bit him by the scruff of the neck and climbed up a tree, making a groaning noise.
After that, the headless body fell down the tree.

Dump.

And… The sounds from up in the trees.

Kwajik! Wow! Whoop, whoop! It’s chewy.

“Aagh!!
Demons eat humans!!”

“Run!!
Get eaten!!”

“Mi, don’t push!”

Udangtang!

“Why, why are you coming this way?!
Demon foot soldiers are coming down from the mountain!”

“Don’t come this way!
Berserkers are coming down from the hill!”

“Damn!
Die this way, die that way!
Unite!
Like a warrior! Like a knight! I will die fighting!”

“Gather troops!
Let’s have a hot bout!”

King of kings.

“The enemies are lost.
In the meantime, there are movements to resist.”

“Then you should speed up the decision.
Blucher, did you leave the west side open as you instructed?”

“Yes. It’s plain, but…”

“Yes, it is open because it is a plain.
Run away there
Do you remember what I said?
Ice talk.”

“Yes. You mean what you said when you were in command of a corps?
He said, ‘Besieging the enemy is like dipping ice into water. The more you split the ice, the less ice you take away, the faster the remaining ice melts.'”

“I remember you well.
There, those who try to unite and resist are ice.
Ice that remains until the end.
If you want to melt faster, you can take out other ice or break more ice.
Ah, the ice-cleaving hammer has arrived.
Stellar!”

Tuck, Tuck, Tuck!

“Whoa, isn’t it too late?
The Ain Castle is also holding a sit-in, so we were worried about our slow response.”

“No, I came just in time.
Blucher, show the Queen of Alliances what we have prepared.”

“Yes!
Queen, this is it.”

Heaps of stones, logs, and jars of sulfur and oil.

“Over there, see the rallying flag raised in the center of the enemy?
Where the horn continues to blow.
Yep. Yes, over there
Open a dimensional door in the air over there and drop it.
Blucher, light the wick of the oil jar here.”

“Yes!”

Profit!

“Stella, now!”

The resounding sound of incantations.
Items are sucked into the portal created below the prepared items, and are poured onto the enemy’s rally flag.

Rumble! Kukkoom! Quaang! Phew!
Roaring!!

“Quaaaaa!!!”

“What, what?!
It would be blocked by trees, but how could this place be bombarded… ?!”

“Damage!”

“Ah! Boo, fire! Fire!”

“Turn it off! Aww!!”

At least the enemies who had been gathering dispersed again.

“Good. Drive west!
Make it go down the rat hole!
Make the enemy show his back without resisting!
Put a spear in your back and shoot a bow!
Bite those who fall behind!”

The heavily armed foot soldiers of Philip’s army fleeing in the woods are the prey of the beastmen’s soldiers who have turned into beasts.
If you rally and resist, the fantasy devil soldiers will attack you.
Horror from the beastmen and demon armies chasing from behind.
Demon foot soldiers and berserkers attacking from the left and right.
In the end, the human armies have no choice but to run westward, on the open road ahead.

“Angela?”

“Um…
The enemy who invaded Ain Castle brought a griffon rider…
I couldn’t leave.”

Swish, shush.

Stella’s sullen expression was quite cute, so I stroked her hair.

“Iron Mask… That mask really doesn’t fit.”

“Isn’t it fun to imagine beyond that?”

“Tooth. Is it bizarre?”

She clings to her side without avoiding her hand inside her.
I hold her by the shoulders and watch her stained orchestra with fire and screams.

“Giant troops, switch to javelins.
The goal is two dragons!
Those who can use projectile attacks with other troops, concentrate their firepower on the dragon!”

Big la la la rock!
Kyaaaaagh!
Bang! Pop!

It would have been difficult to distinguish superiority and inferiority if the dragon attacked the colossus with its teeth and claws.
However, the dragon has no reason to fight to die for Amity.
What if you get too close and get your wings ripped off by a lightning sword?
They can’t even run away and get eaten by the ground troops riding up like a swarm of ants.
Even so, if you let out a breath, the range is shorter than that throwing a lightning sword.
It’s not enough to catch the Colossus with magic alone.

“Tsk tsk.
You called the dragon, are you such a coward?
If I wanted to turn the tide, I should have fought the Colossus in a hand-to-hand fight and defeated them individually.”

“You can’t expect fighting spirit from a mercenary.
It’s the law to work only for what you’ve been given.”

“Oh, is that a saying?
Now that there is no answer even with the dragon, they slowly run away.
It’s the climax.
Catch Philip and Alberic!
It doesn’t matter if you kill me!
Whoever catches them will receive 50 sheep and 100 grains of rice!
I will also give 3 sheep and 10 grains of rice to all the centenarians to which the person concerned belongs!”

“Wow!! Get Philip!”

“Let’s get the money we couldn’t earn from the bet as a bounty!!”

“Catch and kill humans!!”

Stella makes a strange expression at the last word.
I’m sorry for nothing, I hold her shoulder tightly.
She carefully grabs my hand.
When this war is over, will the animosity between races and nations be resolved… ?
I need to solve…
Somehow

“Sir, the enemy is fleeing to the west.”

“To pursue closely.
Wizards and escorts head east, pick up the munitions we left on the road.
Stella, didn’t you bring supplies to Ain Castle again?”

“Huh. Moved some back
There will be no shortage of food.”

Enemies rushing to the plains of the west, to the wilderness.
The horsemen run recklessly, and the foot soldiers throw away their armor and shields and run hurriedly.

“Old man, taking out the mage troops when the battle isn’t over yet is a bit…”

“What? Didn’t you survey the topography there?
I said understanding astronomy and geography is a basic virtue of a commander!”

“Ah! Sin, sorry!
I forgot that ‘there’ was in front of me.”

“I forgot something else… Tsk tsk.
Now, let’s lead the army and go after them.”

***

“Hey, heck!”

“Mr.
Pausing for a moment to reorganize the army… !”

“Damn! I get it!
Everyone gather here!
Flag down!
Where are the Templars?!”

“There it is!
We will assemble as soon as they come!
Blow the horn!
Let’s gather here!

Boo-!

With the heavy sound of its huge horn, it collects allies from the plains.

“Good.
Now you just need to summon the dragon and form your formation on the plains!
We have the upper hand in magic power!”

“Spearmen! Here!”

“Cavalry! Gather to the left!”

“Magicians! Priests!
Come back! Hurry!”

Among the busy people, a sorceress rushes to Philip.

“High Priest, High Priest!”

“What’s the fuss?!”

“Oh, that’s a big deal!
Telepathy is not working!”

“What? Try again!”

“No matter how many times you try.
You can’t call dragons or give orders to your troops!
Besides, other types of magic won’t work!
This is… This is where the natural forces are fixed.”

“What?!”

In the meantime, Philip was sitting in the cart.
The moment you jump up and come down the cart.

Rustle.

“?!”

Too dry soil.
I didn’t notice it because it was night, but the ground is all black.
The sound of something crunching under your feet.

“This… Bone?”

“No, skeleton… ?!”

Skeletons and bone fragments buried all over the ground.
A land without a single tree or a single blade of grass.
A sight where not a single hut can be seen, let alone a private house nearby.
This desolate place…

Silence for a while.
Screams that burst out.

“Cursed land!”

“It’s a magic nullification area!!”

“Elderrich, this is the land cursed by Desdymona!”

In front of my eyes… It’s dark.
