◈ 327. [Free Exploration] Imperial Declaration (2)
A fortress made of gray magic.
The size is not too big, and the height of the wall is low. It looks more like a small base rather than a fortress.
However, a clear castle is spread out as if enclosing the area. I looked around in bewilderment. Wasn’t there a word like this in the skill description?
‘Perhaps this castle wall marks the range of my skill.’
Then, if I grow further and my skill proficiency goes up, will this fortress expand?
I wanted to take a closer look at the fort, but I couldn’t afford it.
[Conquest War begins soon.]
– Until start: 5 minutes
It was because this guidance system window popped up in front of me.
As explained in my ultimate skill [Imperial Declaration], it seems that the ‘occupation war’ was activated because I used the skill in a hostile area.
Now, if I just win this battle, the control of this whole area will be completely handed over to me… … !
T-ring!
At that time, an additional detailed explanation about the rules of the occupation war came to mind.
[Conquest War – Area 1: Dry Drainage]
– You win by blocking three waves of monsters.
– In the monster wave, 3 random corps are selected from among the nearest monster corps.
– Boss level monsters are included in each wave.
“… … ?”
what?
Didn’t you see it wrong now?
“There are three waves that contain boss-level monsters… … ?”
Even if it was just a wave, I would be a little nervous, but such a crazy, boss-level monster included?
I bit my lip. If I had known this would happen, I would have brought another party… … !
“Lord?”
“Senior, why are you like that?”
Then Lucas and Evangeline asked in a worried voice. I suddenly came to my senses and looked back at my party members.
Along with the two strong knights standing in front of me, I saw a sniper and a wizard looking curiously at the fort.
My head went cold in an instant.
The 5 main party members currently dispatched here are the most elite among the elite that I have in name and reality.
Everyone has finished awakening, in fact, the strongest hand I have. All of them are the heroes of Ikkidangcheon.
The total of the monster kill counts of the main party members has already reached four digits. To be concerned about the small number of cards you have in your hand.
‘Suffice. No, rather, it’s suitable for testing the performance of my ultimate skill!’
I fight with only the main party, and if there is a part that is empty, I cover it with my ultimate.
Quickly formulating a rough tactic in my head, I looked back at the party members and nodded broadly.
“Okay, everyone here! Please explain the current situation!”
I explained that we were in a pre-occupation situation, that a wave of monsters would come soon, and that if we defeated them, we could take over this place.
Even the fact that among the swarms of them were boss-level monsters.
The party members were surprised but not taken aback, and immediately started preparing for a defensive battle. Indeed, they were like warriors who had gone through this hell with me.
Damian jumped up to find high ground for sniping, and Junior immediately began casting spells.
Lucas and Evangeline exchanged glances with each other, and each checked and divided the parts of the castle wall to take charge of defense.
I was proud of the party members who performed their roles well without wasteful movements and without coordination of conversations. old guys. You’ve grown a lot.
‘I should be faithful to my role too!’
There was one gate in the fortress made of magic. It was self-evident that monsters would flock here.
Standing on the wall above the gate, I took out magic cores from my inventory, scattered them around, and shouted.
“Summons!”
Within my ultimate area, the limit on the number of summons disappears.
In other words – if you only have magic cores and building materials, you can summon defense towers indefinitely!
When I used the summoning magic, the entire castle wall unfolded like a 3D drawing in the system window, and places where turrets could be installed were displayed.
OK, first… … .
“Shield turrets!”
An aggro tank tower that distracts the monsters and uses its body to receive attacks. shield turret.
Two to the left of the castle gate. two on the right. A total of four were summoned.
The drainpipes that made up the dungeon room were bent like candy and ripped out, forming the shape of a turret.
Soon, a defense tower in the form of a large rectangular parallelepiped with ridges of shield-shaped armor thuds! thud! He made a sound and showed up.
Looking at the four shield turrets installed in a row, I felt a sense of security as if four bowls of hot soup were lined up in front of me.
It’s a reassurance that you can eat one bowl for dinner and continue to eat tomorrow morning, lunch, and dinner.
“Next, automatic defense turrets!”
Zuan Tong’s Auto Turret, Auto Defense Turret!
Also installed four. On top of the ramparts to the left and right of the gate.
It is designed like a naval gun installed on a warship during World War II. Large and heavy cannons and gun barrels appeared.
Eight mana cores disappeared in an instant, but it was not the time to save them. In the original test, resources are not spared.
‘I’d like to install a magic turret too, but the research isn’t finished yet.’
The magic turret is a defense tower that applies various debuffs, including slowing, to monsters in a wide area.
I obtained the scroll the other day and requested a study at the alchemy workshop, but it will take more time to complete the study.
It’s a pity that I can’t use the 3-piece set at once, but I’ll finish installing the towers for now.
“And all the captured monsters, come out!”
I summoned all three captured monsters that I had captured with skill 2 [Become mine!] in every dungeon exploration in the exclusive subspace.

[Capture Monster: Lv.30 Skeleton Knight (R) has been summoned.]
[Capture Monster: Lv.35 Scorpion Warrior (R) has been summoned.]
[Capture Monster: Lv.40 Troll Royal Guard (SR) has been summoned.]
Soon, skeletons, scorpions, and trolls came out one by one from subspace and stood in front of me, bowing their heads swiftly.
‘What is it, all three of them are very loyal?’
Somehow, everyone was more loyal than usual.
In particular, the Troll Royal Guard is an elite mob in its own way, and right after capture, its loyalty was less than 20. Now over 70.
I wondered why, but I soon found the reason. It was the effect of the [Imperial Declaration].
> Skill 1 [Evil Eye of Command] success rate increased, skill 2 [Be mine!] effect added and corrected
It seems that loyalty is additionally compensated in my ultimate area. With a loyalty of 70, at least you don’t have to worry about getting stabbed in the back.
“Okay, it’s going to be hard to call each of you from now on… … .”
I pointed at the skull, scorpion, and troll one by one and nodded. And they gave their team-up a name.
“I will group them together and call them ‘Gansonmi Brothers’!”
《… … ?》
The monsters, who had no way of knowing about the Three Kingdoms drip, tilted their heads curiously, but what are they going to do? Thank you for not calling it a jjajang jjamppong fried rice set.
The Kansonmi Brothers are organized as a reserve. I ordered to deal with the monsters breaking through Lucas and Evangeline’s defense line.
‘Here, I have the boss summon scroll I have now, though.’
Let’s take a look at this situation and use it.
After finishing the arrangement of the summoned and captured monsters, it was not long before the wave started.
I took a deep breath and looked around the magic fortress.
“Um… … . ugh… … Somewhere higher… … .”
At that time, I found Damian looking around to see if I could not find the right high ground.
‘How can I help… … for a moment. Wasn’t this fortress built with my magic in the first place?’
So, isn’t it possible to change the composition of the fortress with my will?
“Wait a minute, Damian, stay still!”
As I focused my consciousness, gray magic gathered – and a small spire rose from the ground.
“Wow!”
Damian rose up with the spire, embarrassed, but soon straightened up and waved at me with satisfaction.
“Thank you, Prince! I think that’s enough!”
After drawing a circle with my hand, I stood up on the wall towards the gate.
[Conquest war begins!]
And, all over the dungeon in this small and narrow District 1.
Aww!
Kieh-!
The monsters began to come in like waves.
***
The first wave was a legion of harpies.
Fortunately, not all of the guys who would flock to the crossroads for this stage came here, it seemed to be a part of them. The number is approximately a little over one hundred.
And with this number,
Tutu tu tu tu-!
It’s not even our opponent.
The four automatic defense turrets fired fire from their muzzles all at once, turning the harpies that were flocking to them into porridge and making them fall.
The harpies were helplessly smashed in front of the barrage of magic bullets pouring down like a danmaku shooting game.
Occasionally, a few strong individuals broke through this overwhelming fire and somehow managed to dig inside,
Taang! Taang-!
Snipe as if Damien had been waiting.
In the end, not a single harpy was able to cross our anti-aircraft fire and was annihilated.
Evangeline sighed as she looked up at the feathers of the rainwater pouring down on them.
“What is it? It’s nothing compared to being nervous, right?”
“Uh, we shouldn’t set up flags like that… … .”
And sure enough.
Aaaaaaagh-!
As if waiting for Evangeline to say that, a huge harpy appeared.
We all glared at Evangeline. Evangeline scratched her head shyly at her.
“No, I really didn’t expect it to come out like this… … .”
The huge harpy spread its wings wide and flew towards us, flying low as if sweeping the land.
Directly behind him are four other smaller Harpies.
That size, that colorful plumage, and above all,
Aaaaaaaagh!
A high-pitched, high-pitched noise that resounds with a high pitch.
Arguably the most powerful entity in the Harpy Legion-
“It’s a Harpy Coloratura!”
In other words, the commander of the Harpy Legion!
“No, isn’t this bastard the boss of this stage?! Can I get out of here already?!”
Asking “Can I come out already?”
It’s not because of the game’s unreasonable difficulty.
‘Isn’t it too much for us to give a boss skill opportunity even before the defense battle?’
If we kill him here, we’ll be much more comfortable during the crossroad defense battle!
The harpy coloratura rushing in in an instant opened its huge beak.
The monster’s chest swelled up like a balloon after sucking in air. Now it’s about to unleash a terrifying sonic attack.
“Huh-!”
But before that, my knights jump.
Evangeline, who rose up like a flying squirrel, slammed the shield she was holding with both hands from top to bottom, followed by Lucas, who kicked the ground and rose like a rocket, slammed her longsword from bottom to top with her sword sheath.
Evangeline’s shield hit the top of the monster’s beak, and Lucas’ long sword struck the bottom of the monster’s beak.
Bang!
I forcibly closed the monster’s beak.
The sound wave, which was about to burst out after taking shape, couldn’t get out of the closed beak and was sucked back into the monster’s stomach through the neck of the monster.
Then Junior jerked his magic wand upwards.
Kurung, Kururung… … !
Over the head of the harpy Coloratura, who couldn’t come to his senses and stumbled, a dark cloud instantly fell, and right after.
Quagmire and light!
A series of thunderbolts exploded.
The Harpy Coloratura and its minions were fried all at once.
Aaaaaaaaagh!
At least the harpy coloratura survived, but the four of his subordinates turned into hideous faces like thunderbolts.
The harpy coloratura twisted and spread its wings wide, as if trying to escape.
Taang! Taang-!
Damien’s magic bullet pierced both of his wings.
Magic bullet accurately shattered the core of the wing bone, and the harpy coloratura began to fall to the ground, scattering feathers and blood.
chin!
At that time, Evangeline and Lucas got on top of the body of the falling monster.
Everything that had happened up to this point was a link between the two knights leaping into the air and blinking their eyes.
The two knights who had shut the Harpy Coloratura’s mouth landed on the monster’s chest as soon as the thunderbolt and sniping passed.
Pachichi, pachichichik… … !
Evangeline’s shield absorbed all of Junior’s chain lightning that bounced towards the two knights.
and,
“Eurasshaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Evangeline can shoot the damage she absorbed with her shield and shoot it back with the tip of her spear… … !
Tuck-!
The tip of Evangeline’s spear, which had been entangled in lightning, pierced the chest of Harpy Coloratura with [Damage Payback].
At the same time, Lucas’s longsword, which stepped on the monster’s body and rushed out, pierced the harpy Coloratura’s neck with a cloud of light.
thud! cuguagua light… … !
The huge harpy’s body fell to the ground,
Lucas and Evangeline, who had stepped on the fallen monster’s corpse like a snowboard while raising a large dust cloud, landed on the ground with a light motion.
Clear wave 1.
I lightly loosened my shoulders and looked at the two knights returning to me, and I thought about it without realizing it.
‘… … Did I raise it too strong?’
No, this is a bit… … is it too much
