Taming Master

Reunion with Helheim (3)

- King Elika's Tears (Hidden) (Explosion)

The kingdom of Elika is the kingdom of Kadesh, a religion that serves the God of Darkness.

But worshipping the Catholic Church did not leave the whole kingdom in darkness.

Until Kadesh, the God of Darkness, was a very healthy religion.

The Kadesh Church let go of a bridge between the dead and humans that did not exceed the causality rate.

But when the Lord of Darkness fell, things changed.

Under Kadesh's silence, the rich king stretched out his magic, and traditionally, the entire kingdom of Elika was completely plunged into darkness.

The conspiracy of the Rich King, the Kingdom of Elika, has fallen into the hands of darkness.

And the king of Elika, who was praised as the Royal Family, Remus Elika was imprisoned in the dungeon in Latapel.

Lacamere, a servant of Charleon, controls the dungeon's encephalocele.

Defeat him, destroy the Sanctum of Darkness, and rescue Remus Elika trapped somewhere in the Basement.

If we rescue him successfully, we will have the support of the remaining loyalists of the Kingdom of Elika.

Quest Difficulty: SSS

Quest Requirement: Users of Level 350 or higher.

A user enters the lower floors of the catacombs in Latapel Territory.

Users with a reputation of over 15 million.

Timeout: 80 minutes

Reward: A token from King Elika.

Greatly increased Amity with Remus Elika.

(If you have a higher reputation and position than the NPC, you can recruit as a replacement.)

* When quests fail, your reputation is reduced by 200,000.

“ ……! ”

Ian's eyes slightly widened, confirming all the quest details.

"If I get this right, I could eat the whole kingdom of Elika." ’

If Lotus had grown to the stage of the Empire, it would have been possible to crown the king of Elika and merge the kingdom of Elika into his own.

However, since Lotus is still a kingdom and Ian is also a king, he cannot do so.

Nevertheless, the thought of being able to eat the kingdom of Elika was due to the special situation of the kingdom of Elika in darkness.

‘His current title as Remus Elika should not be the king. ’

Remus Elika was only an identity of the prisoner while trapped in the dungeon.

Then, what remained was a reputation figure, but Ian never thought his reputation would be lower than that of the NPC, the King of Elika.

It was also because of the huge reputation that had been accumulated, but objectively, Ian's reputation was also close to the imperial imminent conditions.

The next one was simple.

If you carry the cause of Remus Elika on your back, the followers of the kingdom of Elika, who have not yet fallen into darkness, will help you in the war for conquest.

And if things go smoothly here, it shouldn't be a way to penetrate the kingdom of Elika.

It can reduce the time taken to conquest by less than half.

"After eating the castle, if you make Lemus Elika king, the little lands will surrender on their own." ’

Of course, as we explained earlier, since Lotus is not an empire, we cannot allow the kingdom of Elika to be incorporated into our kingdom.

But the kingdom of Elika and the kingdom of Lotus will be a military affair, and it will be a merger after Lotus becomes an empire.

This scenario was possible because the current king of Elika, Remus Elika, is locked in a brig.

The anglers fit perfectly.

"Khh, this guy Lemus. I hope the stats are better too.... ’

If we were to recruit him as a pretender, it would be in Ian's best interest to have outstanding skills such as Helheim or Kaisar.

Chuck!

Ian was excited to bring the former ‘king’ into his home. He caught the pole and stepped forward.

“Lacamere or something, let's go get him. ”

* * *

- He entered the lowest level of the crypt.

- Limited time left for ‘King Elika's Tears’ Quest: 01: 19: 23

- Lacamer's minions are waking up.

- Dungeon, the first wave begins.

Whoo-hoo!

A large resonance strikes Ian in the ear.

The lowest level of the pituitary after nearly half a day of combat.

As soon as I got there, I welcomed the group, many undead.

“Kiehek, the humans have invaded! ”

“This is the sanctuary of darkness! I'll kill you all! ”

Ian, who entered the new battlefield, first identified the structure of the map.

‘Straight line to a wide corridor. Brainworms are on both sides.... ’

The lower level of the dungeon of the dungeon appears to be the widest of all maps.

Even though he was a ‘underground concussion,’ there was no concussion in the layers that had come down until now.

The place where all the prisoners were trapped, this is the bottom floor.

Since the appearance of the encephalogram was uncomplicated and broad, it was a disadvantage structure to deal with many.

‘I'll just put the tankers in front of me, and then we'll stretch the rest out across. Being surrounded can be dangerous.... ’

Ian straightens up his thoughts and gives a quick instruction.

It was a Muran that had no direct control, but it was advanced to control the summoners and the rest of the party.

“Let's keep pushing it all the way down the hall. We'll talk as soon as it's breached. ”

“Okay!”

“Got it!”

The progress of Ian's party was simple.

The party members stretched out across the hall, blocking the whole hallway.

You place only the tankers forward, such as the golem of darkness summoned by Hun and the rest of them in a row.

The only one placed in the rear was Hiler Levia.

“This is a good idea, but wouldn't it be better if Hun and I went backwards? Even if it widens the gap a bit. ”

Ian shakes his head at Lemir's question.

“No, Sis. If we lose them, the perimeter will be too loose. It's hard to keep up when you're fighting like crazy. ”

“Well, it's still a little dangerous for a wizard to be on the defense line..." ”

“That's why you two are on both ends. They won't get in much farther than I thought. ”

“Is that so? Okay. Let's try it. ”

Muran, who doesn't take orders from Ian, naturally begins to break through at the forefront.

Muran slaughters the undead while standing in front of Ian's party, pushing him up the sidewalk.

And that was also the scenario in Ian's plan.

‘This will naturally push both factions down slightly. ’

Even if we try to keep the trajectory as close as possible, Muran's active central faction will naturally come forward.

This results in the shape of a triangle, which has been pointed up in the middle. In this way, both the Hun and Remir ends can minimize damage.

Both sides are blocked and the front angle becomes conspicuous, so the range of attacks must be quite limited.

If the enemy tries to dig from both ends, there's nothing to worry about because they have taunting skills.

Once the advance is established, Ian's party begins to break through the dungeon with a catastrophic rate.

“Pin, shred! Carseus reloads Bress in 5 seconds... Huna, Dark Swamp! ”

In a map that opens back and forth, it is not just one or two things that are troublesome once it is surrounded.

Especially for wizards, the timing for casting magic isn't even good because attacks come from all over.

Of course, single magic with casting times of less than 2 seconds is possible, but it was really difficult to trigger in a wide-area machine that needed to be casted for at least 5 seconds.

However, the story was different in the current progression, which is completely blocking the way forward.

Lemir and Hun, who are rarely attacked at either end, are able to work their magic with excitement.

Pow! Pow!

And according to Ian's spell, Hun triggered the 'Dark Swamp’, a wide-area black magic.

Dark swamps are literally swamps of darkness.

It's weak in attack, but it's a high-level black magic that will debuff all over the area.

Enemies in the range of dark swamps experience a significant decrease in movement speed and a significant decrease in magical resistance.

Squirrel-Squirrel-!

As Hun's Dark Swamp kicks in, the sticky dark energy starts to rust from the ground.

And the undead stomped on it.

“Ket-ug-Ketchup! ”

“Wide magic! Fall back!”

Desknights with high leadership and AI tried to call off the retreat, but it didn't work.

The movement speed was already significantly slower, and Lemir added an extra layer of ice sheet magic.

This was Mir's sensuous play.

“Oh, Lemyrna, hold on! ”

“These are the basics! ”

Lemir is a flamethrower.

It's not that you can't use ice magic because you're a flamethrower, but you rarely use it because it's significantly less powerful.

The coefficient of attack, as well as the coefficient of additive effects such as frost and frostbite, is also less than half the level of the ice wizard.

The same is true of Broad FrizzingBroad Freezing, the ice just used by Remir.

If the Ice age wizard had used it, it would have reduced movement speed by up to 45 percent, and it was triggered by Lemir, which is a factor of less than 20 percent.

So in general, wizards don't even know the magic of other attributes.

Because efficiency did not come out.

But in this situation, it was different.

Even with the same slowdown effect, you can stack the slowdown over the slowdown effect of the Darkness attribute, and when the slowdown effect of Pro-Freezing and DarkSwamp combined, it creates a slowdown state that is almost 80 percent.

In the case of slower skeletons in the first place, the feet are tied so that they cannot move at all.

Above it, the Brest of Carseus pours down.

Kuaaaaaa-!

Borat air gusts from Carseus' mouth, sweeping through the undead like a storm.

And its power was enormous.

Whether the Dark Swamp's Magic Resistance Reduction effect caused most undead in the 400 levels to fall below half in an instant.

But with the support of the Black Wizards in the rear, the lives of the fallen undead will soon be restored.

Of course, Ian didn't want to leave it alone.

“Plenty, Bress! ”

It is weaker than Carseus, but it never weakens its power.

A lot of intelligent people suddenly opened their mouths toward the front.

Kwam - Kwaaaa -!

By this time, all the lesser undead, such as Skeletons and Races, have been wiped out.

“Kieeek -!"

“Kekek, it hurts so much! ”

Now there are only a handful of Desknights and Golems left in front.

To save them, the Dark Mages in the rear began casting magic.

“Heal the souls of the dead, dark forces! ”

But the wizards did not finish casting.

Shoshon--!

It was because the three great swords of Muran swiftly swarmed towards the Dark Mages.

You little...!

As if ripping through the air, the Great Swords surge with enormous waves of sound.

The Dark Mages could never stop it.

It was because Muran's sword, boasting extreme attack power, could only be withstood by wizards in a situation where there was no cover.

The wizards, with their hearts pierced by the great sword, crouch on the ground.

“Lacamere will never forgive! ”

“Glory to the Monarch of the Dead, Charleon! ”

As a result, the situation was closed.

In the absence of backers, four or five life-forms of Desknight are like Ian's food.

- You have successfully defeated Death Knight!

- Earn 13,089,209 XP!

And in Ian's eyes, a new system message came to mind.

- Tyring!

-You have successfully broken through the first wave.

- Breakthrough Grade: SSS

Now that you've passed the first pass, prisoners in Sector A.

-As a high breakthrough rank, you earn 100,000 Reputation.

- Rich Meiji Lakamer is furious.

- In a moment, the second monster wave begins.

The distant smoke of darkness clears away, and the new undead emerge.

The first wave and its number were similar, but the ranking of monsters was much higher at first glance.

Ian fixes the window with a nervous look, and so do the rest of the parties.

It was because the strategy to sweep the area at once did not seem to work easily.

Then, before Ian's ears, I heard a familiar voice.

“Long time no see, Grand Duke Ian. ”
