Chapter 200

# 200

200. Black Seed (8)

I narrowed my eyes.

A huge fortress blocked the narrow canyon.

Various magic cannons on high walls. It even has a moat.

It was hard to believe that it was made in such a short period of time.

‘Hmm.’

If things had gone according to the normal scenario, I would have attacked that fortress with Asinis’ detachment.

but it got twisted

[Hey, it’s built strong.]

A sparrow chirped at his feet.

[It is difficult to attack from the front.]

“I know.”

There are a lot of guards on top of the castle wall.

Troops to stop me alone. This is embarrassing.

‘The mission objective is...’

I looked to the side of my field of vision.

[Floor 44.]

[Mission Type – Siege]

[Objective – Break Through the Fortress!]

The mission objective that had disappeared is back.

As the sparrow said, it wasn’t completely out of sync yet.

To some extent, the rules of the game were maintained.

The problem was that the reinforcements had disappeared.

‘Is it a one-person infiltration?’

The final key is hidden deep underground on Buyeo Island.

We looked for a place to infiltrate in the cave we were in, but we couldn’t find it.

Well, if there had been such an entrance, there would have been no need to build that fort or prepare for war. The only real entrance to the subterranean temple was over that gorge, blocked by a fortress.

I reviewed the current situation again.

I am the only hero. Besides, there is one sparrow that doesn’t help.

Freea was left in the cave. I thought about bringing him, but the efficiency is too low to fight while protecting him. Because I’m thinking of making a joke.

The enemy’s strength is one boss-level entity and hundreds to thousands of thugs.

They were holding a sit-in inside the fort, dragging out time.

“...ha.”

Thinking about it again, it’s stressful.

At least, it would be nice if there was an object that could summon allies like in previous missions.

If they had cheated on the mission, there was a high chance it wouldn’t happen.

Perhaps I will have to go through this section alone to the end.

‘Well, strictly speaking, I’m not alone.’

There was a sparrow that chattered nonstop beside me.

I snapped my fingers.

[‘Han (★★★★)’ requests an ’emergency recovery potion’. Upon purchase, the hero acquires a ‘recovery potion’. 500 gems are consumed, and you can purchase ‘1 time’ in this mission. Would you like to purchase?]

[Yes / No]

A bottle of red potion appeared on Amkena’s control panel along with the purchase message. It was an emergency recovery medicine sold at the battle shop.

Of course, there are penalties.

It could only be purchased once per battle and was very expensive for its low efficiency.

A whopping 500 gems. It was an amount that could be used to spin a paid lottery once.

[Yes (optional) / No]

[Emergency recovery potion has been given to ‘Han(★★★★)’!]

Flash.

A light shone overhead, and a red potion bottle fell.

I snatched the vial and put it in my belt pouch.

Eventually, Amkenna was bought.

This despicable item that no one buys.

After accessing the game, Amkena, who grasped the situation, did not report it to the head office or write to the cafe.

It just sent a mail to my mail account.

After contacting Issel through the sparrow, I wrote and sent a reply saying that it would be nice to observe the situation a little longer.

‘If I die, report it then. I’ll do it myself this time.’

one week.

It was the time I spent here after the contingent was wiped out.

stayed for quite some time I’ve been busy training.

The trick doesn’t work.

In the meantime, I consulted with Priana Sparrow and ran simulations several times.

We concluded that neither method, such as infiltrating in disguise as a soldier or hiding in a supply cart, would work.

“...”

So

there was only one way.

[Are you going to leave?]

I nodded.

A week dragged on enough to drag the time.

Any more is dangerous.

‘It won’t take long.’

whether i die

whether the mission is over

only one of the two

“let’s go.”

I jumped out of the grass.

Then I walked out in front of a large gate lined with steel.

If it is difficult to infiltrate, there is no need to hide yourself.

“Stop!”

Someone shouted from the top of the castle wall.

I looked up there. An officer in armor was looking down at me.

“Are you the one? There is a message from Persene-sama.”

I kicked the stone under my feet with the instep of my foot.

Then he grabbed it with his right hand.

“He said he would give us one last chance. Join us in achieving glorious liberation...!”

puck!

The stone I threw went through the officer’s helmet and shattered his skull.

As long as I have surpassed human limits, my sling is no different from a bullet.

I jab.

With the sound of fireworks exploding, the body of one of the soldiers who had been staring blankly at me was crushed and disappeared.

I picked up the sword that had fallen on the floor.

“What a crazy bastard!”

“Did you come to find a place to die!”

[Order Army Soldier Lv.25] X 153

[Order Army Knight Lv.31] X 15

Troops gathered like ants within the fortress.

This was also within the expected range.

‘Where is it?’

Somewhere here is an entrance to the basement.

[Tee-ring!]

[Do you want to load a tactical tool?]

[The usage time is limited in a combat situation and increases according to the level of the tactical center.]

[Yes (optional) / No]

A red arrow was drawn in the sky.

The arrow was pointing to the left corner of the fort.

‘good.’

The goal has been set.

I took a potion from the pouch, drank it whole, and threw the bottle away.

[Order Army Soldier Lv.25] X 313

[Order Army Knight Lv.31] X 21

“...”

They constantly flocked.

Two to three times the number of people displayed on the status window. no more than that.

Church troops continued to appear in various places in the fortress.

‘Is it an act of suicide?’

Yes.

this was special

Normally, I would never choose.

Because the survival rate is extremely low.

‘But...’

There’s no choice.

I have no choice but to run wild with my body.

“Kill!”

With a shout, they rushed at me.

After I sliced up one of them, I kicked off the ground and ran. Jumps several meters and lands on the castle wall. Soldiers were approaching in a row on top of the narrow passageway.

‘...’

I turned the sword around.

And the power that seemed to boil was carried all over the body.

Kwajik!

Two or three per sword.

The armor and the sword were cut into pieces and smashed.

Weapons lose their blades every ten seconds.

If the sword is broken, take another’s sword.

If that too breaks, use a spear or an axe.

“What... such a monster! Prepare archers! Volley!”

“But my ally...!”

“It’s an order!”

Pak!

I flinched.

An arrow was lodged in his back.

‘...’

Dozens of archers keep shooting.

I broke the shaft and used the corpse as a shield to advance along the narrow wall.

Papa papak! In an instant, dozens of arrows were pierced into the soldier’s corpse, turning it into a hedgehog.

‘Is that the entrance?’

There was a passage inside the fort that seemed to lead to a cave.

Various barricades and obstacles were installed, and spearmen and knights camped.

I clicked my tongue.

Time can’t drag anymore.

Exceed is already reaching its limit.

“...”

I narrowed my brows.

[Danger!]

[Senior Heretic Executioner]

[Noble Raskanda Lv. 53]

A knight stepped out in front of the barricade.

“I accept your strength. But it seems that it is no longer possible. Surrender.”

I threw hundreds of arrows at the corpse.

He pulled out a large steel halberd stuck in a pile of corpses.

“You’re bluffing. If you want to die, I won’t stop you.”

I smiled and grabbed the halberd with both hands.

And bent at the waist and knees.

bang!

I stepped up and ran out.

“You fool!”

The knight, who was greatly furious, drew his sword.

“I’m Raskanda Jejeral! As a high-ranking paladin who devoted his whole life to justice, I will subdue you! Let’s fight fair and square!”

The knight took a jockeying ceremony with a cool motion and ran out to me.

flutter!

Suddenly, a sparrow jumped out in front of the knight’s eyes.

[This is the beak attack!]

“...?!”

snap.

The man whose nose had been pecked by the beak grabbed his face.

Then my halberd cut the knight through the armor.

“It’s cracking.”

I laughed amidst the pouring blood.
