Golden Experience

Episode 352: The eruption of Jihad

The members of "Under the Virgin's Banner", who had attacked King Wealth's City, were struggling around the walls to count their allies.

The Holy Amarier Imperial Army, which has added endorsers who have gathered from all over the country, has already far exceeded the regular army of the King's capital in numbers alone.

However, there are many civilians in the battle now, and even if they are knights, they have little combat experience, and it is a delicate question whether they can actually be counted as combat power.

Beam players still have to struggle.

That said, I can't be too rude. Gathering players together will not be difficult to break through the castle gates, but hitting so much firepower will hurt civilians in the city.

If we can get in touch with the NPC supporters remaining in King's City, we should be able to take safety measures such as encouraging evacuation around the castle gate.

I wish I had left some player members in King's Landing, but unfortunately none of the members under the Virgin's flag who were in King's Landing wanted to act apart from the Virgin. Of course.

Maybe the Myeong Tai list and the Guinolegamesh still remain in the Wang capital, but if we give them any information at all, it will spread everywhere in an instant.

The information that we want to evacuate the residents will lead us to inform the regular army of the timing of our raid, and we don't want to be noticed until just before the decision is made.

Fortunately, an old man who says he's the archbishop of the Episcopal Church will explore whether he can get in touch with us across the wall through his own acquaintance.

It is unclear what to do with a completely sealed situation, but we have to wait for it now anyway.

The situation changed dramatically the day after the siege of King's Landing.

Suddenly the main gate of the king's city was opened.

If I were to become the archbishop of the Episcopal Church, could my acquaintance even open the gates of the King's City?

No, it wasn't.

It was the regular knights who opened the gate and overflowed from the inside.

Moreover, it is the Knights of the Kimikaze, led by the Second Prince Ferdinand, who is said to have no one in line with the kingdom of Wealth in bravery.

Their strength is well known.

For the sake of the Virgin, when I fought against the armies of the monsters who raided this king's city several times, it was new to my memory that I was helped by their appearance.

Beam was ready and screamed.

"Run! All of a sudden there's something out there! Players and knights are at stake! Anyway, the general collaborators ─ ─"

"Ah, you're home, Hasselah!

"Yeah... It sticks as much as it sticks, but I don't know how much it saved me.

The Virgin is still working hard, so maybe she's not dead anymore..... "

The Holy Amarier Imperial Army hastily lifted the siege of the King's City and fled back to Grossmunt.

But the majority of those under siege are citizens who have never received military training.

Just saying you're going to run doesn't mean you're going to be able to do it smoothly.

So the players and allied knights suppressed the Prince and the Enemy Kimikaze and made time to let the citizens escape.

Many players repeated the respawn, but still couldn't let all the citizens escape.

Eventually, the players stopped respawning.

The battlefield extended to the camp.

After this, the deceased player will be returned to Grossmunt.

Once this happens, the player can no longer be calculated as a reusable force.

With the former camp as the front line, we have no choice but to fight with surviving members.

With minimal wear and tear in mind, it would be most sensible to use the Imperial Army's most powerful combat power to keep the enemy's attack at its limit.

It was the Virgin who proposed it, the most powerful fighter of all.

It is the least appropriate strategy to take.

This is a situation where the most important strategic goals for enemies are on the front lines.

But that's why the beams also agreed to cry, arguing hard that it should help other troops retreat.

But thanks to that, the remaining citizens managed to retreat, I'm sure.

Beams are already dead around this time, and I don't know because they were respawned in this glossy munt.

Hasselah does not have much combat power in her own right, but builds specifically for durability. Anyway, it's moist.

So he served with the Virgin, and fought to the end.

Having been resurrected in this land may have ended up dead, but with this much time, we will be able to escape even at the feet of our citizens.

It may be time to begin arriving in Grossmunt.

"I wonder if the Virgin is safe..."

"... I think it's okay. It feels like we've been fighting. I don't think those guards can beat the Virgin's defenses with their attack power. I didn't hit it before."

As long as it is pathetic to let the Virgin, who is supposed to be guarded, go to the temple and fall off.

But as I said, the most effective fighter in this faction is the Virgin.

The combat power is high enough to think that he can do it alone.

"─ ─ The surviving citizens are back! The Virgin is safe!

I was just going outside the city to see how things were.

He came to tell me he was returning.

"Great....!

Well, let's pick you up.

"No, I'll be here soon. They told me you didn't need a welcome."

Notwithstanding her high status, the Virgin tends to prefer very reasonable things.

It can be said that such a part is one of the charms that attracts people and doesn't stop them, but it's a little lonely in the sense that they don't take care of me very much.

"Well, let's talk about the reflection meeting or the future....."

Hasella's not well.

Many NPCs have died in front of us. It's not impossible.

Moreover, the NPCs joined the movement by believing in the Virgin and Hasselah.

It won't be so painful for Hasselah, who looks like a super idiot and is surprisingly delicate.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! If you're shitting me!

"That's right! The revolution has just begun! I'm sorry about the people who died, but they didn't want us to get depressed here either!

"Besides, we're already running. I can't stop now. The Wealth Kingdom doesn't officially exist anymore, and we can't keep it that way forever."

Following Beam, Monmon and the farm that had been here at some point spoke to Hasella one after the other.

"─ ─ That's right. Even if we leave here, they won't forgive us.

The fist I swung up once, I just have to be ready and swing it through to the end.

At least I stood up for it. "

The Virgin joined the conversation.

When I saw it, I didn't get injured. The vest is stained with blood, but it seems to return all the blood. She is wiping herself with a cloth handed over to the priestess.

These priests were on the battlefield with the Virgin, but the Virgin didn't seem to be injured. This is the first time I've seen them fight, but at least they looked more fightable than the Beams.

"My friend, Liliene, supported Princess Zezilia well and fought through the day of the revolution. There are many people who have been given courage to look like that. I'm one of them.

Now is the time for me to show our courage.

Come on, Mr. Hasselah. The battle is coming. "

"Let me, the Virgin ─ ─. Remember my name..."

"Of course it is. Mr. Beam, Mr. Monmon, Mr. Farm......

Your name is engraved in my chest. "

"Let me, my name on the chest of the Virgin... my name on the chest..."

"... I'm glad. Leader, I think we're back together."

"... No, I guess I should have said this..."

The operation was to resume the following day.

However, we will not take the general public just for the sake of increasing numbers.

The attacking forces consist only of players and local knights, and the citizens are grossly protective of the guns.

The city is still under development, and in fact, we don't have enough manpower.

Of the construction and production work, those requiring skills are carried out by experts summoned by the Episcopal Church, but other work requiring only labor can be adequately assisted by the general public.

Even with the exception of the general public, there are still more Holy Amarier Imperial Armies than regular armies.

The opponent's regular army consists of only the guards and guards who protect the King's City. Otherwise, the Knights are full of repression everywhere and will never come to us.

Things are different from previous monster raids.

This time, we don't just have to protect King's Landing. The fires are smoking all over the country.

The archbishop's old messenger can't be used anymore.

"Sounds like it. Well, last time, it was just a noise. Even if I could use the informant, it was only once. I can't use it anymore."

Then there may be some sacrifice, but we will have to destroy the main gate anyway.

Even so, if we can break through the Knights of the Kimikaze.

The Knights of Kinsai have already formed a formation around King's Landing.

I didn't know when we were going to attack, but thank you.

"You're motivated...... But, well, you can't even pull this one off.

Drop the King's City to reward the Virgin's thoughts!

"I don't think it's just the leader's idea, but I guess it is.

All right, you guys! Just think about breaking through the enemy and destroying the gate! Enemies will be resurrected soon after they are defeated, but we still love them!

But the gates aren't! If we destroy it, we can't fix it right away! That's why we give priority to destroying the gates!

Everyone responds to Beam-chan.

Morale is good.

Preliminary research shows that there are few players in the current King's City.

There is also the high popularity of the Virgin, or it indicates that there are no players on the side of the Kingdom of Wealth.

And it is unusual that it was confirmed when the last raid failed.

None of the members of the under the Virgin's flag engaged a player-like opponent.

It's hard to imagine a player not being actively on the front line in a earned event called war. Even more so when it comes to the unprecedented Kingdom of Wealth.

"Let's go! Assault!"

It was the Imperial Army that dared to attack at the main gate under the first command, but naturally it collided with the enemy regular army in front of it.

It's a battle.

This case itself is within the assumption.

We all know that destroying the gates will disadvantage the opponent, and it is only natural that the end of the battle is opened in the plains ahead to defend ourselves.

This is where that monster army used to fight players and soldiers defending Wealth.

Beam was fighting behind the King's Landing.

And now he's fighting to bring down the king's capital.

It's strange that it hasn't been that long since then.

The knights of the regional lords are weak.

Of course, it is much stronger than the general public, but it is no match for the elite Knights of the Kimikaze.

No matter how many are better, this is difficult, and the war situation is not advantageous.

But players are even better than such Kingsguard knights.

Of course not all players participating are stronger than the Kintetsu Knight, but there are many players that are much stronger than the Kintetsu Knight.

Beam is one of them.

"Uyaaaa! Advanced Rush!

Beam-chan's gripped fist crushed the enemy knight by armor, and hit the knight next to him, gradually increasing the momentum and increasing the number of victims one after the other.

"Advanced Rush" is inherently an abusive skill that knocks your fist over and over until your subject falls. It will not stop until the subject is exhausted, the activator cancels, or the activator receives a forced cancellation of the skill with a knockback, etc.

However, it seems that this "subject" is actually sandwiched every time just before each blow, which was recently discovered by verification.

In other words, just before the impact, if you look at a different target, it will be judged that you are a new target, and you will be hit shortly after the beating motion is over.

Initially, it was said that the state of the avatar moving automatically over a long period of time was disgusting, and it was said that the skill was not popular due to the difficulty of acquiring it, but it was re-evaluated by the discovery of this specification.

Nowadays, gaining a large effect at the cost of a skill has become an indispensable technique for unscrupulous fighters. Damage per hour is not as efficient as it looks due to the reduced power of a single hit, but it acts as a pseudo-range attack if it is a low-level opponent.

Beam's top players use a variety of skills and tricks to kick off the Kintetsu Knight opponent. However, it is not possible to enter the city where a few people stand out.

Even if we could break through the enemy line and attach it to the walls, Beams alone would not be able to destroy the gates.

Enemies will naturally resist further, and destroying huge structures like gates is difficult for Melee Physics.

But if you stand out like this, you can attract the enemy's attention, and the pressure on other members should decrease as well.

Eventually, if players capable of projecting high thermal power from a distance are within range of the gate, the situation will improve at once.

It is not pointless to move forward in a crooked fashion.

How can you take advantage of the advantages of an hour gained by defeating enemy soldiers and row them into the destruction of the main entrance? That will be the key to victory.

"─ ─ Damn, it's tough. The number of enemies themselves has been reduced considerably since there are no players against them.... The local knights of our NPC have been reduced even further."

It was a farm, I wonder who talked to it.

He was near him while he was fighting. Or maybe he approached us. I don't know in this turmoil.

"But even if we get hit somewhat this way, if we don't give up, we won't lose, but the target gets pretty tough if they destroy the gate. We're on the offensive side. That's all we need."

Given the presence of the Virgin on this battlefield, the final condition of victory can be said to be that the enemy is more advantageous, but we also know that it is difficult to defeat the Virgin no matter how hard we concentrate our efforts.

Well, I guess so. It's a long way to the gate.

"There you go. ─ ─ That?

Follow the farm's gaze and look at the main gate, and the center of the gate glows red. Or rather, it's burning.

"I don't know what that is... What-- Hey, get down!

Beam quickly hugged the farm head and pushed it down to the ground.

Shortly afterwards, the main gate of King's Landing made a roar and blew it from the inside.

The beams were not close enough to lie down because they were still far from the main gate, but some of the enemy Melee Knights who were nearby were directly hit by the gate fragments and left lying motionless.

It's a war within the rules that we never die of each other. The destruction of the main entrance was therefore the most important goal in the first phase of the invasion.

Suddenly it took shape, but I don't know why.

"Why is the gate...? Oh, hey, look at that."

"... if you want to see it, get out of the way first"

"Oops."

Retreating from the top of the farm, the two of us stood up and looked at the destroyed gate.

I see some shadows across the wreckage.

It appears that the destruction of the gates came from the inside of the city, even as the debris splashed out.

And it would be that shadow who did it.

"... hmm? I've seen them before. It's a player."

"Seriously? Still there, player? ─ ─ That's the face I saw somewhere. Who is it?"

The knights of the enemy, who were stunned by the sudden collapse of their defense targets, finally restarted, and Beam and the Imperial Army arrived behind them and destroyed the gate.

Apparently, they're not on the enemy side. It's only natural that you destroyed the gate.

I still recognize the knights' ability to relieve their onslaught and reliably kill them one by one with the sword they return.

Oh, he's a guinea leg mesh.

"Ah. So that wizard is the Spicy Pollack Roe List? I wonder if Wayne is with me. Are they still in King's Landing?"

"I wonder, why are they destroying the gates or something? I thought you wanted to stop us."

To take a closer look, behind them are some people who have come to wear the Episcopal vest.

It's hard to imagine that Wayne and the Spicy Pollack Roe List alone could destroy this gate, and I guess I worked with the remaining ecclesiastical people in the city to unleash their magic.

I haven't grasped the situation yet as to what it means, but I'm not complaining if the gates have been destroyed and we have more allies.

"Well, no. I don't know, but let's push it out with momentum.

- Everybody! The walls have been smashed to prevent our advance! Enemies are abandoned, priority is given to invading King's Landing anyway!
