"This weather makes me want to take a nap."
I look up at the clear sky and squeal to relieve the tension.
Out southwest on Michelangelo, a few hundred meters away, we were ready for the battle to come. We had no choice but to put Michelangelo behind us in a side-by-side formation because we still had no information about the identity or number of enemies.
Each person is approximately 3 to less than 4 meters apart, and the walls of the mercenaries (players), consisting of a total of 102 people, can be followed for more than 150 meters as a jetty for Michelangelo.
But its thickness is very thin. Because after only two rows, there's too much distance to the next mercenary (player). In short, it turned out to be equal to taking a Sukkaska defensive team to prioritize coverage.
But this would be the best hand for the enemy to react quickly when they discover the target, beyond uncertainty as to where and how many will come from.
"I don't have a choice."
In the front row of such a wall, I speak to Mina, who stands next to me a little further away.
"George, are you okay?"
"Haven't you received a friend message for Heavenly Master?
Mina returned the question after repeatedly rubbing the mace pattern out of place. It's a tough mina for Okama on a daily basis, but I guess doing restless behavior is somehow a guide to George.
"Not this one yet. That means Mina too."
George is not here right now. In addition to George, Mr. Traj and several mercenaries (players) are positioned in various directions, far ahead. This is to inform the mercenaries who are waiting here as walls of the existence of the enemy as soon as possible. If we are the main force in front of a demon (monster), they are single to play a reconnaissance role, exploring where enemies come from.
Nor is it a considerably quicker group of monsters than the advance party that Mr. Traj sent near 'Ine Village' was killed while sending enemy information in a friend message. Or do you think this one has a hard ability to detect? But even if it is, it will be difficult to hide large numbers perfectly. That's why Georges and the others were sent forward as reconnaissance, but from the current state of affairs, it won't change the sacrificial position of the battle. When it comes to why higher-level George or Mr. Toraji were selected, it's because the survival rate is thin when it's just the low-level ones, and there were concerns that they would be killed before sending the information here.
"Humph. Even if you can't communicate the information, if it kills you, you can grasp it on your friends list. If we can do that, we'll know the enemy is approaching from that side. That's enough."
Wolfe's cold point is that he's certainly doing the best we can right now, and he's capturing the truth.
As long as we know where the enemy is coming from, it will also be possible to concentrate this vast wall and match it with the highest power we have gathered.
Now, with that in mind, I'll take the telescope out of my right hand, even though I'm worried about the reconnaissance personnel who put themselves in danger.
And a few hundred meters away, I'll just turn my attention to the gear that Georges and the others can see in the do-up.
Swinging his point of view to the left and right, looking for where George was, I could see the color black wolf observing jiggly forward at the middle hips. The pudding protruding butt shape looked round because it looked like a pink leotard. I'm foolish enough to say I'm poisonous to the eyes, but I'm going to take my gaze off in another direction.
"George said he seemed fine..."
Why, when it comes to myself being in the rear with such handy gear.
Because of my role in connecting my orders to the side, forming mercenaries (players) positioned in stretched stretches, and densely hitting enemy forces. Of course, the people scouting will be able to find their enemies quicker. Anyway, I have to look around and twirl the telescope toward all directions. But even if a scout was killed after discovering it, I was placed at the center of a wall of mercenaries (players) as a result of everyone agreeing with Ooga's insistence that we should report it to everyone and change the formation according to the situation.
On the left wing, there is a swinging night, on the right wing, Yuki, and two people who can chat with me and my friends. By my side, Mina, Mr. Announ, Ouga's prick, Yuji, RF4-you are waiting for the style.
"Mmm... I just got a friend chat from Traj."
"Are you sure!?
"He said he saw dirt smoke in the left diagonal direction..."
I'm moving the telescope quickly to the point where Mr. Traj is located. Mr. Traj should have been in charge of the front of the left wing.
"... hmm? We're not enemies! The enemy has arrived."
The old wizard in the hood told everyone whether he had received further friend chat from Mr. Traj or the enemy raid.
Then, the mercenaries (players) located on the left and right immediately connect the message directly to the mercenaries (players) next door: "Here comes the enemy", "There's the enemy", "There's the enemy", and "There's the enemy".
I also sent a quick chat to Shaky Night (Koya) and Yuki (Yuki), who are in charge of both wing mercenaries.
Mr. Traj, who sees over the telescope, has been jiggling for a while, but he made a change of direction with Kurli and began to dash this way in desperate hustle and bustle.
Behind Mr. Toraji, who starts retreating with a blue face, I focus on the telescope and try to figure out what the hell is coming.
"Mmm... Toraji guy, about reporting on what kind of monster he is... all I'm saying is that there's a ton of earthsmoke and something yellow coming up..."
This is why the young man is not sloppy. As I hear Wuga's blur beside me, I still wait to see if the telescope will capture the enemy or not. In the meantime, I quickly sort out the 100 status points I've earned since I became LV5.
Talo Level 5
HP 60 70 MP 40 (+ 10) 60 (+ 10)
Power 1 Magic 14 Defense 2 Magic 8 Quickness 140 160 Intelligence 155 205
Remaining Skill Points 32
Here's the sort of thing this time around. I still waved 20 points at the MP because it is in my mind that MP is consumed to fight with the wind fairy hu, but I don't think I can help it.
The rest, as usual, are priorities like intelligence on 1, speed on 2, and HP on 3.
"Okay, now that's ok..."
You'll be ready for battle, and then you'll have a few dozen seconds to peek into the telescope.
I finally saw who the enemy was.
"That's..."
Indeed, as reported, the yellowish population is approaching at a considerable rate.
But what is that demon...
"... it's slime!
Yes, that was definitely slime.
Round jelly monster.
"What? That's angel... isn't it true?
In response to Wuga's confirmation, I analyze the things I see myself, strengthen my tone and inform everyone.
"It's slime! Perhaps, tough slime...... no, bigger than that!
Unlike normal slime, the slime has an orange body. They are rushing this way as they roll through the gobbles and plains. The number is uncertain because the follow-ups are hidden in earthen smoke, but I think there are more than 100 of them as far as I can see. It would be reasonable to think of it as a lot 150 to 200 because so far it has been pushing forward on a scale of more than 20 meters across.
Respond to my cry and say, 'Circular! Slime approaching! Slime approaching!' Yuji summons. At the same time, my reports are passed on to the left and right as well as to the message games "Slime," "Slime," "Slime," "Slime," and "Slime," and so on.
They tell 'Slime Slime' one word at a time next to the other, and they don't even look like a pretty odd bunch from the side. It's such a strange sight to be illusory about an avid Slime follower or something. But they seriously turn their necks and whine to Slime, Slime, Slime, and the next mercenary (player).
But if I observed them like that, they also looked like they were putting together some slack air. I judge it a mess. Because there is no perception of the level of danger at the heart.
The problem is the size of that slime. Speaking of orange slime, it was a tough slime that was stronger and bigger than the normal slime, which I encountered in the vicinity of 'Comgi Village' the other day, but this time it is clearly bigger than that. It's a reckoning, but it's moving pretty fast, spinning the body around nearly a meter. Are you saying that a mutated tough slime elsewhere has gone on a rampage without anyone sweeping it and made it so enlarged in number and size?
Anyway, I repeated the report.
"There's a big slime coming! It's a dangerous monster several times bigger than a slime!
To my voice, which I cannot afford, Yuji again urges me to transmit to the surrounding area.
"Enemy power, misidentification! FIXED INFORMATION! Slime with several times more volume is approaching than regular slime! Repeat! Slime is approaching with multiple volumes!
More, chew it up in plain sight and be concise! and suppress the desire to scream. Now, if I say anything extra, it's possible that everyone will pass my words on to the mercenaries (players) on the side of the parrot.
He said it was a big slime! 'What's the big slime?' 'How slime?' 'There's a big slime coming!' I look at them whispering, and I bare my chest a little.
Where the mercenaries connected to the left and right were able to grasp the status quo somewhat, I spit out additional information.
"You should move to the left! Move to the left, everybody!
As far as telescopes go, we don't see the emergence of enemies from other directions.
Then hurry, to the right-wing Evening Fai (Yuki). The enemy hits a chat as they head to the left, prompting them to move to the left. Next, report that enemy forces will clash there to the left-wing shaky night (thus).
"Not on the left! Go left!
"Move left -!
"You're on the left!
"We're going left -!
Hurry up to the left flank with the surrounding mercenaries.
When we joined the Shaky Nights at Uga's initiative, unlike the mercenaries who were centrally positioned like us, the left-wing mercenaries were getting ready to intercept the enemy from the front as soon as possible.
"Humph. Defense and high HP guys stay out front!
"Keep the shield close to the avant-garde! Whoever's got a long-range attack on him, stand by behind the shield!
Wolfe and Shaky Night seem to be at the centre of the command, and we just finished our journey learning from left-wing mercenaries (players) and forming formations.
"Humph! You know, the first blow needs to cut enemy momentum with a ranged attack!
"Don't block the sight of the mercenary (player) in the rear, the avant-garde must stay on your mid back! Don't stand until the enemy approaches!
I feel satisfied that the two of us who fought at the Fairy Ball are working together properly, and I go around behind the walls with Ooga's pricks and Minas.
If you look at the right wing, we're still on the move. I don't know if I'll make it to the approaching slimes...... I told you the line was critical.
Once again, when I turned my telescope to the slimes on their way, I saw the tragic appearance of Mr. Toraji being swallowed and crushed by the orange-colored crowd.
"Wow..."
He was caught up in the leading slime and played hard with contact. And he was crushed to death by a massive number of slimes lying on the ground when he fell ill.
Fast. Too soon.
"And Mr. Traj was killed, wasn't he?
Wuga immediately conveys one of my words to a mercenary (player) on the left and right.
"Major Traj, due to his martyrdom, he is a second-class special!
"Toraji was killed."
"Mr. Traj is Kill!?
"The LV7 tiger was instantly killed..."
"Traj Killed"
"Reconnaissance traj kills instantly"
"Come on, can't we stop this?
That could have been an inadvertent statement. I mean, I wanted to be foolish in my chest that you didn't have to pick up my words and message me that far.
Everyone's anxiety swells from the myriad of glances that can be directed at me.
That wasn't good earlier......
If you look at your neighbor, Uga is staring at the front silently and harshly without opening his mouth.
By this time, the big tough slime figure has come close enough to be visible to everyone on this scene, and everyone gets appalled by the upset.
"Everybody on the right wing! Hurry! The shield follows me to the front row! Come on!"
"Follow me, Mercenary (Player), who allows for Ranged Attacks!
Even though Evening Fai (Yuki) and Lily and the right-wing mercenaries (players) with Yuri are finally joining us, they seem to be floating close to see the magnitude of the impending slime in front of them and the great march of enemies that are likely to blow and crush everything.
"Mm-hmm!
"I knew it, stop!
"As long as the monster kills you and drops your EXP, you'd better run!
"That's right, I got 4LV because of it.
"Is it possible for a monster to get into the city in the first place?
"Guidance, isn't Michelangelo ever gonna break?
"But Ine Village was damaged..."
"Anyway, I don't know this fight!
"Let me fall out!
And me. This is where the phenomenon that we feared the most happened.
The departure of the allies.
Among those who joined the battlefield, those who tried to run backwards away from it began to appear.
There will be more than 150 enemies.
This one, by contrast, is a little over 100, pushing it down in numbers, and the opponent is using his thrust to hit.
So, the further reduction in this number means nothing more than being pushed down into a more unfavorable situation.
I don't know.
Somehow, won't it?
I'm not going to think of a good idea for spinning my head fully.
In the first place, this is a game, the former gathered mercenaries (players) of individual freedom. I mean, they're free to run, and I don't have the right to pull them off.
"Kuh..."
Only the remaining mercenaries (players) have to do something about it.
Conclude so in a short time and stare at the group of slimes that push over.
"You're still soldiers! You lunatics!
But suddenly a temperamental curse echoed on the battlefield.
That was something emanating, beside me, ready to go.
If you look at me by surprise, RF4-you were screaming gold at Yuji, who blackened his whole body with his "Transformational Skills".
"What is an enemy escape! Son of a bitch! You're still soldiers! No, you guys are not fit to call yourselves military men! He's just a pig!
RF4-you...... had summoned and scattered around him words and deeds that had a fierce gap between the pretty boy's appearance on his small body.
"Oh, my God, he"
"Who's a soldier?"
"Is that creepy?
The hostility of the mercenaries (players) who were falling back suddenly poured out at RF4-you. My classmates, Evening Fair (Yuki) and Shaking Night (Koya), are also half-laughing and sending out their gaze to Yuji.
"You guys, the reply is sarjesser! You don't even know that, you worm!
What a crisp move to approach me by such a yuji who makes me curse my surroundings one after the other.
... I only have a bad feeling.
What's this guy gonna do?
He put his heels together, pinned his spine, and made a crisp face, his gaze slightly upwards, not mine. Reach your right hand in a agile motion and hit your forehead with a piss. He practiced many times, and Yuji makes such a brilliant salute pose that he wants to scratch.
"The man who sits here belongs to the Supreme Command Headquarters of our army, Lord Reishi! I am His Excellency Admiral Taro!
No?
Me, I'm not a directive or a leader or anything...
I accidentally feel drawn to my classmates. By and large, what do you want to say to the mercenaries (players) who have lost their will?
Even with all the scratches in my heart, I shut up and watch Yuji, the army otta, silently.
"Keep stomping and fighting here (...) The Little Officer! I will be friends with His Excellency the Angel (...)!
Stop being an angel or something. What's that disgraceful or dying nickname?
"Are you going to be friends with the dwarf!?
... Huh?
Why are you confirming that to me at this time?
Is Sole so intent on talking about it now?
Honestly, Yuji and I have been face-to-face at convenience stores, and we don't want to get involved as much as possible, we want to avoid it, and we don't want to be friends.
But why aren't you friends with Yuji, your classmate? Such a question would naturally boil during the shaking night (hence) and the evening glow (yuki). If you cross Yuji from there and get pryed, it could be a hassle.
The expression is flashing Yuji, but the heat in his eyes was real. That's why I'm a step away from nature. What the hell is he thinking? I want you to give me a break from looking at me with a loving look that my classmates would never send me, and when I smash it, I run chills.
How did this happen?
I learn to have a pompous emptiness in my heart, and my expression pierces through nothing. But in front of Evening Fai and Shaking Night, I move only my giggly neck toward Yuji and whine only one word: 'I'll be your friend'.
Then what happened?
Mercenaries (players) on the left and right started messaging games with angels befriending, silver princesses befriending, princesses befriending, and angels being able to befriend, and furious speeds at mercenaries next door with only their necks pointed at the croons.
I don't even feel like it was the fastest transmission speed I've ever had, but that won't happen. I'm sure.
"All hands! Intercept position, hey, hey!
And then RF4-you, the loud voice mercenary (player) Lv3, unleashed the decree in a mundane and relaxed manner.
"Whoo-hoo...... sarjesser!
I thought no one would obey the arrow tip, I was right next to you, Ouga's temper opened his eyes quaintly, learned from Yuji and started screaming like that. The mercenaries (players) who were on the verge of escape are returning to battle for some reason.
They uniformly run their eyes bloody and say, "" "Saar! Yes! Sir!" "and mumble an anger.
"Twenty seconds before we pick up the enemy! Fire squad, and fire squad are ready to attack!
"" "Sayasusser!
Are you going to pass it on now? And I couldn't help wondering, but seeing the wizards around me and the mercenaries (players) capable of ranged attacks in an undisturbed motion, putting up weapons and going into chanting positions, I also accidentally prepare "Launch Fireworks (Small)".
"Goal! The fragile pudding looming in front of us! Show them your M-pig guts, even if they stomp on you!
"" "Sayasusser!
I stare at the slimes that are coming to the side soon, bewildered by the air of my lunatic allies.
"Huh! Butch in!"
"" "Sayasusser!
Yuji, who turned into a ghost sergeant, obeyed RF4-you's order to launch an attack, and many magic, ranged attacks, and my fireworks were fired upon the enemy.
――――
――――
Everyone on this scene still doesn't know.
The events of today prompted a group called the Silver Army (Silverley) to emerge later. When things happen, they gather under the banner of a mercenary (player) named Angel, and the adversaries shoulder to shoulder and become powerful forces working together beyond the hedge of a mercenary regiment (clan).
