Chapter 613: Defensive War (1)

Chapter 613: Defensive War (1)

The small girl, whose helmet did not even fit her head, with an armor that almost fell down from her shoulders, stood at the forefront of the army and spat coldly, “All of you, kneel down.”

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The people that were watching the broadcast from all over the world held their breaths.

When Loki tore one of the ‘Battle God’s Parchments’, the Strengthening Parchment, the magical attacks and arrows that the Luvien Empire sent forward became 1.3x stronger than ordinary. That was on top of Nerva Sephiroth’s army already possessing some strength, with mages that could release at least 5th Tier magic against their enemies. That tremendous attack that had been raining down upon their enemies barely a moment ago now fell upon them.

Swiiiiiiiiiiish—

The wind swept away the thick cloud of dust that was created from the aftermath of the attacks. The mages, even until death, cast their shield magic as best as they could. Thanks to that, Count Loki was able to escape death, and was still safe and sound.Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com

Loki could not help but gulp dryly at the sight that was presented to him when he looked back. Around 40,000 of their troops had received damage from that attack reversal. Some had been swept away by the downpour of magic and disappeared without a trace, while some shrieked from the pain of their limbs being torn apart.

“...”

Count Loki was rendered speechless for a long moment.

‘Who the hell is that girl?’

It was not just the Luvien Imperial Army that was thinking this way.

“...Was your power truly sealed?” Airen asked, her face completely showing how flustered she was.

At the same time, notifications rang for the players of Eivelis Empire.

[Luvien Imperial Army’s First Army’s morale has fallen!]

[All of their stats will decrease by 5%!]

Count Loki was furious. He decided that they had to gain victory as quickly as possible. So, he tore another parchment.

[Battle God’s Fury.]

[Tens of thousands of sword blades will fall down from the skies. Anyone that this sword touches will receive a 15% decrease in all of their stats!]

Tens of thousands of swords appeared in the skies above them, falling rapidly toward the army that blocked their path in the Stars’ Path. Since it was a debuff skill, there would be no damage or HP lost. However, the majesty of the downpour of swords was so much that it could make anyone falter. However, at that moment...

Clack—

The moment Elizabeth opened her palms, the swords that were free-falling from the sky disappeared without a trace.

“...!”

“...!”

Elizabeth, the God of Snakes, was a woman that had the power to control the system. Using a debuff on someone like her was like a mantis trying to stop a carriage.

Then, Elizabeth’s eyes started to turn yellow, as a strong wind appeared and made her beautiful and shiny hair flutter around. As she raised her arms in a graceful manner...

Rumble, rumble, rumble—

...the ground beneath the enemy army began to shake and crack. At the same time, a bloody red energy erupted from those cracks and devoured the enemy camp.

[Elizabeth’s Wrath]

[All of your stats will decrease by 20%!]

[Your Physical and Magical Defensive will be reduced by 40%!]

[Your Attack Hit Rate will decrease by 40%!]

“...”

“...”

“...”

The Luvien Imperial Army was rendered speechless. The same went for all of the viewers that were tuned in to the broadcast. It had to be known that there were many players that had decided to join the Luvien Empire’s side, and among them were countless BJs. Since the BJs were doing a live broadcast, the notification window also popped out for all of the viewers to see. And the commentators were immediately made aware of this fact.

[From the screenshot that I have seen, the notifications clearly said ‘Elizabeth’s Wrath’.]

[How did Elizabeth appear here?]

[And why does she have the appearance of a little girl?]

[Why is Elizabeth, someone that the Food God had killed before, here? And why is she fighting for the Asgan Continent?]

Everyone was in doubt.

However, Airen and the defending army could tell that...

“Everyone, charge!!!”

...this was their opportunity. Airen dashed forward, with Elizabeth running next to her. The two were immediately followed by the troops of the Eivelis army.

Shockingly enough, the people under Rumano had power that was comparable to Legendary NPCs. And from what was going around the grapevine, Sword of the God Rumano had a power that was close to the Gods. In fact, he was ranked 13th among the Swords of the Gods. Even Leville, the one that was assigned to lead the Divine Dragon Squad, was a Supreme NPC with power that could rival that of an Absolute Supreme NPC.

The Divine Dragon Squad’s mission was simple. They needed to assassinate the centurion-level commanders, legion-level commanders, elite knights and nobles among the troops of Asgan Continent. After all, doing so would hasten the collapse of the Asgan Continent troops.

Originally, they had to be in armies before they could attack. However, Joy Co. Ltd. had allowed each camp to attack each other, even though they were not in an army with 10,000 troops. This was so they could simulate a true atmosphere of war.

The Divine Dragon Squad silently swam in the sea and finally landed ashore.

‘We need to hurry up and wipe out the core members of the troops that are stationed in the entrance.’

In a few minutes, the warships would appear in everyone’s sights and they had to assassinate the key figures of the Eivelis Empire, before they could launch an attack on their warships.

From what it looked like, the enemies still had not recognized them as part of the hostile camp yet. Not long after, they were able to recognize dozens of commanders among the troops.

‘God’s Covert Steps.’

The Divine Dragon Squad cast the shocking skill ‘God’s Covert Steps’ and hid themselves while moving around silently.

Shwaa— shwaa— shwaa—

As they continued to pass by the troops, the voice of the man with a huge body rang in their ears, “Fufufufufu. I am a member of the great and noble Power Infinity...omitted...Dark Breaker Team. Fufufufufu.”

“...???”

Divine Dragon Squad’s commander Leville tilted his head in confusion. However, he thought that it was not that strange to hear something like that. This was war. Many people had gone crazy after sustaining heavy and traumatic injuries to their heads, or experienced mental damage after witnessing the death of their loved ones.

Leville pulled a huge and long needle out when he passed by the man. It was a weapon that could easily kill commander-level figures without a sound. Just as he was about to throw the needle...

Clasp—

A large and callused hand grabbed Leville’s wrist.

“...!”

Leville was shocked. It was because he was using God’s Covert Steps, a skill that some of the Named NPCs could not even recognize, yet this man was able to grab him by the wrist. The worst part? The man’s hold on his wrist was so strong that he was forced to let out a groan.

Thwack—

Leville hurriedly threw a dagger toward the man, forcing the man to loosen his grip and allowing him to widen the distance between them. The other members of the Divine Dragon Squad, who were in stealth, quickly surrounded the man.

However, Leville was once again shocked, ‘This bastard...’

It was because the one that grabbed his wrist was the crazy and burly guy from earlier. The crazy man chuckled darkly and said, “I have been born anew today. He has bestowed upon me a great and noble name.”

“...???”

‘No, he’s really crazy.’

But...

‘What is this overwhelming pressure?’

Leville felt his scalp turn numb.

The warships would arrive soon, yet they had not dealt with the commander-level figures yet. Even so, Leville still had the confidence to cut down this lunatic in one stroke. He had decided to deal with this bastard in front of him quickly and immediately move on to the commander-level figures.

However, Leville was also curious, ‘What did this bastard do before he turned crazy?’

So, Leville asked, “Bastard, who the hell are you?!”

The man’s laugh was booming. There was an air of arrogance that surrounded him. After all, he had learnt what to say in situations like this.

“Fufufufufu. I am a member of the Power Infinity Great...omitted...Dark Breaker Team.”

The man moved swiftly. Then, something amazing happened.

Crackle—

The man passed by all of the members of the Divine Dragon Squad, his sword covered with intense black flames, as it swung down swiftly. The moment the flames fell down, the dozens of warships that had slowly appeared in the sea’s horizon were completely devoured by flames.

Shwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa—

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

“...!”

“...!”

“...!”

“I am the absolute strongest uncle, the one that can cut down even the skies, Red Dragon!!!”

To be clear, he was the Power Infinity Great King God General Magister Dark Breaker Team’s Absolute Strongest Uncle that could cut down even the skies, Red Dragon!

Meanwhile, Prince Votto, who watched everything unfold from afar, mumbled, “D, dad... Please...”

Goosebumps rose all over Prince Votto’s skin from second-hand embarrassment.
