Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Episode 554: The Frenzy of Minas
As Barista said, it can also shoot at siege weapons, and its destructive power is tremendous. If you use such things inside the Mansion, the walls and floors may be destroyed, and the Mansion may collapse to drive out the intruders.
I had no idea you'd put a barista in the house and shoot us. If you see who's doing it, you're lying, right?! It makes me want to say that.
Something unusual is happening.
Nil sharpens his nerves and uses ice pavés to change the trajectory of the first shot of a barista.
There were three arrows from the barista that flew in.
The first and second arrows seem to have managed to change Nil's trajectory, and the third one seems to have missed, passing by us and hitting the wall behind us, scraping a part of the wall.
When I checked the building materials for this building, it was definitely a material that couldn't be broken easily. Nil's Icepavice couldn't stand it much longer if it was powerful enough to weigh it down.
What a nasty thing to do!
Boom! Boom!
"Ugh!! I'm going forward!!"
Nil parries the barista's arrow that came flying at the wrong timing again, and comes forward at that timing.
Situationally, Nil dared to move forward, even though it seemed like she wanted to step back and consolidate her defenses.
However, this is the correct decision in this case.
The ballista is fired through a hole in the back of the wall for shooting. Just like when firing a normal arrow, if you can stick directly next to the hole for shooting, the opponent can't shoot at us. The problem is that the stone wall that separates the enemy from us cannot act as a defensive wall when used against a weapon of great destructive power called a barista.
There are several layers, and I think we're building a defensive wall so that it won't be destroyed if we attack a little, but it doesn't look like we can stop Barista's attack. In other words, even if we stick to the wall, we may be able to penetrate through the wall.
"Nil! Don't be alarmed if you come near the wall!"
"Yes! To cut my gaze!"
Even if we have a ballista that can destroy the wall, if we get close to the wall and cut our gaze, it's hard to tell where to shoot.
For once, the shooter and the viewer are separate, but if the shooter cannot see the target, the barista attack will lack the accuracy rate.
The proof is that one of the first three shots flew slightly out of our way.
You can say that the accuracy rate is low because you can remove it even if you see us firmly. Originally, by using wind magic and directing flying arrows, there is a high probability that the target will be hit, but this is an indoor space, and the distance between the barista and us is a few meters. From the projectile to the impact, the control by wind magic was almost impossible. If you shoot at such a distance, the presence or absence of the gaze will have a great significance.
Thinking about that, Nil took the option of getting closer rather than away from the wall.
"It's coming! Let it go!"
Once the ballista releases an arrow, it takes quite some time to reload. Meanwhile, another remaining ballista releases an arrow, and as it enters the reload, a finished reloaded ballista releases an arrow. By firing arrows one after the other, the ballista attacked constantly.
I don't know exactly how many baristas are on the other side of the wall, but if there are only a few holes for shooting, the number is six. They are arranged at regular intervals.
The stone wall used as a barricade extends firmly to near the high ceiling and is not easily jumped over.
Boom! Boom!
Two arrows are flying from a ballista that hasn't been fired yet against Nil's assault.
The sound of metal arrows cutting the wind can be heard very clearly.
Grrrr! Grrr!
A flying arrow hits Nil's ice pavilion and destroys the stone on the floor.
Just a few shots of arrows, and Nil's Ice Pavis already had a crack in it.
"Second shot! Let go!"
Loading of the first fired varistor ends and a second shot is released.
Grrrr! Gin!
Master! It's about time!
Nil misses Barista's second shot and two arrows, but Icepavise is already cracked. It's a delicate matter whether the next shot can be stopped.
It seemed like we could get close enough to reach the wall, but we didn't have enough time to break down the wall and get on board.
This is it!
I take a mold ball out of my hip bag and throw it into the hole in the wall before the barista fires. Four gate baristas who had not yet thrown a second shot were throwing it in.
Dodo, dodo, dodo, dodo, dodo!
Behind the wall, an explosion sounds, and I feel the blast leak out of the hole.
"" "" "" Guaaaaa! "" "
From the back of the wall, the screams of those who would have been involved in the explosion.
"Magic forcibly breaks down walls!" Buy me some time! ”
Piltee!
"Yes, Mother!"
I've been drawing magic circles to break down walls since I entered the room, but I need a little more time.
It was Heine and Pilate who bought me the time I needed to draw the magic circle.
Mother!
Yeah!
I didn't know what I was going to do, but I trusted the two of them more than I told you to think and move on your own. That's the best I can do.
The two of them headed towards the open hole in the wall as they walked out in front of me and Nil. The hole is about thirty centimeters square in size, not large enough for a person to pass through.
As they ran to the front of the impassable hole, they checked inside and pushed their hands into Xu (Momoru).
"What?! What?!"
"Shit! Don't come! Guuuuu!"
I don't know what you did, but from the other side of the wall you can hear the voices of those in a hurry.
Apparently, I didn't have time to fire the barista, so I calmed down and finished the magic circle.
"Both of you! Get back!"
Hearing my voice, Heine and Pilté jump backwards.
Bakibakibaki!
When my hand glows green, a large tree root stretches out from the floor. It's like pushing back stone used as flooring.
Plants are stronger than people imagine. No matter how hard the material is, if a tree root enters the seam, the plant will push the stone back and stretch. When I was in Japan, I had seen trees lined with cherry blossoms, such as the roots of trees that grow by breaking asphalt.
You can't beat the power of plants with all the bush and stone.
It was the advanced tree magic, the roots of the world tree, that stretched out.
It is a big magic to use indoors, but unlike other magic, it is simply specializing in mass destruction, and the roots of the trees created are just as flexible as the roots of ordinary plants. This should save us from destroying more buildings than we need.
Goww!
The roots of the world tree that was created fall toward the front.
Zuga-gha-gha-gh!
The roots of the world tree destroy the wall that separated us from our enemies, but they don't stop, they fall into the back. Earth smoke that destroyed the barricade floods the room, and fragments of the destroyed wall rattle and collapse.
"Gosh, that's amazing! You've done too much...?"
"No, it was more than perfect magic."
Nil looked straight ahead at the dust.
"Ugh..."
"What... happened...?"
Behind the dirt, you can see the roots of the world tree that destroyed the wall and fell, and the shadows of the enemy soldiers that were blown away and fell.
It looks like the barista was able to destroy two gates.
It looks like one-third of the enemy soldiers have been involved.
Heine and Pilte, with their sharp senses, seem to understand the situation behind the dirt and explain it to me.
Are you sure you want to proceed like this?
"I see...?!"
When Heine noticed something, she kicked the ground and jumped towards Nil.
Don't!
Holding Nil tightly, the two fell to the ground.
Oh, my God!
At that time, it was the barista's arrow that flew to Nil's position, breaking the dust.
Shh, shh!
Kuuu!
The ballista arrow that flew in was a trajectory that made Nil skewer, but Heine managed to dodge it. However, the barista's arrows flicked across Heine's back and she heard a voice that seemed to hurt.
Mother!!
Heine-san!?
Heine?!
Nil himself suddenly jumped onto Heine and said that he didn't know what was going on.
Pilte and Suratan immediately approached Heine and Nil.
I stood in front of the four of them like a wall and stood with my Sakurazaki sword because the next attack might come.
The dirt was still dancing, and I couldn't see what was happening in the back.
In this state, the barista...? It was too accurate for me to shoot by surprise. It's just a magre...?
Mother!
"It's okay, it's okay!!"
Heine, who was far away from Nil, had a slightly painful reaction, but it didn't seem to be a fatal injury.
I was completely alarmed.
Under the circumstances, I didn't expect you to shoot the barista. Normally, I'd have been a little more attentive, but... I'm tired... no, that's an excuse. I was simply pushed into the void. And I didn't have enough focus.
Heine-san!
"I'm glad Nil-chan's safe."
Nil has also grasped the situation, and is worried about Heine, but she is laughing when she says that there is nothing serious about the injury.
Looking behind him, he saw a laceration of just under 30 centimeters on Heine's back.
My clothes are dirty and my blood is oozing out. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to be a deep wound, but it can't be said to be a shallow one.
Sura-tan!
"I know! I'll treat you right away!"
Of these, only Sura has some knowledge of medicine. Regarding the condition and treatment of wounds, it would be good to leave it to the slacker.
"I'm fine. It's not that deep a wound."
"What are you talking about!" We need to heal him now! I'll take care of it! "
Listening to Heine's words, Surakitan says angrily and begins to treat Heine's back.
"What are you doing?" You're taking it off, aren't you? "
The dirt gradually clears up, and when you see the situation in the back, you hear a woman's voice coming from the back of the dirt.
I'm sorry about that too!
"I don't need to apologize."
”No, no... nooooooooo!!”
Snap!
I can almost imagine what's going on just listening to my voice...
When the dirt clears, a dark-haired woman stands in the back.
A woman who resembles the Shadow Warrior woman that Renya took away. No, to be exact, should I say that the Shadow Warrior woman resembled this woman?
The dress and clothes are exactly the same, as is the bright red fan in my hand. It's just... my eyes are red, not green.
"Is that... a minor frenzy..."
As Heine said, unlike the Shadow Warrior woman, I feel like a unique aura. Is it okay to say that he is a manifestation of self-confidence...?
Alongside Maina, there are some strong-looking combat slaves. I saw one of them sticking a straight sword at a man.
The dirt finally cleared and I was able to check the surroundings and finally grasp the situation.
Almost all the people on the other side of the wall were slaves. Some of them are like soldiers, but they must be there to give orders to slaves.
"Huh. I wonder where the leak came from knowing me." Speaking of which, you said you caught my substitute. I wonder if she broke her mouth? "
Tong Tong and his jaw slapped with a fan, looking diagonally upward and saying minor.
"That's why you can't use a woman who looks just like you." Because of the resemblance, the woman I picked up around here is useless. I put a Gigas man on it... and if I find him, I'll have to kill him. "
A minor that says it kills as if it were only natural.
And it came to pass, when she heard it, that she was dead. I feel that way.
This woman's eyes are the worst.
My eyes say that everything but myself is worthless at all. Even life is just a thing, and it has eyes that think that it is something that can be done at their discretion.
This kind of person is very dangerous. I don't hesitate to take my life because I don't feel anything.
I know it well because it's broken. But you know better than I do that it's broken.
I'm also a broken person who doesn't feel guilty about killing people, but that doesn't mean I don't feel anything. There are many things I think about, and I rarely kill people without emotion.
But this woman named Maina kills as if it were part of her life. That's the kind of person.
Damn it!
Shh!!
Shit!
Suddenly, Pilté ran toward Maina and poked out a shadow owl. It was so sudden that I was surprised, too, but one of the combat slaves beside Mina struck out his arm in response to Piltee's assault and stopped the shadow owl with his own body.
Shadow Owl was after Maina's neck, but it didn't get there, so he was stopped by a slave.
"Oh, you're a very impatient young lady."
Maina opens the fan to hide her mouth.
On the other hand, Pilte drifts a cold murderous aura and looks at the minor.
It is only natural that I should be angry because I have been hurt by my beloved mother. It was just Puppet's head, Minor. It wasn't Date who survived using Shadow Warrior or anything. It's not that easy to take your neck off. If you let your emotions do the talking, you could get us killed.
"Piltee! Calm down! I'll be fine!"
"Ah....."
Pilte hears Heine's words and stops his foot as he comes forward.
“I told you, it's when you're tired that you calm down.”
"... yes."
Pilte loosens his shoulders when he hears Heine's words.
The combat slave who took Pilate's shadowclaw by the arm, even though the arm had a hole, looked at me with no particularly painful face.
Hey, what about her?
“You're right, my family.”
I see Pilte pulling, and I check with Heine in the back.
Apparently, as expected, Maina was a vampire.
The fact that the dust was dancing so much, and that it accurately grasped Nil, was that the five senses of Mina were superior, so they recognized our position and launched an attack.
However, even if Maina looks at Heine and the others, she doesn't seem to know about the vampire race because she doesn't react.
If you know about the vampire race, you should know that its appearance is not necessarily proportional to its age when you look at it with a human sense, and you won't call Piltee your daughter.
"Anyway... breaking both corners of the barista is terrible."
Maina said this while looking sideways at the crushed barista under the roots of the world tree.
Do you know how much a gate costs?
………………
"Well, that's fine. I wonder if it was that Cynthia..." It would be nice if you could tell me a lot about it.
You're also a ferryman, aren't you? "
"... I see."
The situation is not very good. Since Heine was injured, at least until the end of the treatment, it would be difficult for him to participate in the battle. I got a shallow wound and couldn't join the fight for a while... so I wanted to buy some time.
Apparently, Mina likes to talk, and maybe she can stay in the conversation for a while. Maybe they'll inadvertently talk about Barabanta. I don't think a woman who has survived so wisely will make such a simple mistake...
Besides, you seem to use interesting powers, right?
"What are you talking about?"
"It's no use blaming you." It's in the report. ”
………………
It was only natural to talk about it because I used holy soul magic so flashily. Without drawing a magic circle, I was releasing a powerful magic that surpassed advanced magic... I don't think I had any other power, and I knew it was the power of a friend.
"Still, it's about time you guys were at your limit, isn't it?" It seemed like it was rampaging a lot, but you can't use that kind of magic anymore if you don't blow this place up. "
I don't know about all of them, but if there was still Holy Soul Magic, I could have used it like the building materials here. Apart from whether or not to do so, there is no doubt that it is an option.
However, even if the Holy Soul Magic was still there, I probably didn't use any magic that would blow it all away. The reason is that we don't know how many players there will be. There are magic spells that blow up buildings, but it's a different story to see if you can kill all the players and Barabantas with that attack. If the players were working hand in hand and using defensive magic, they would be sure to survive. Because when the magic has a wide range, the local damage is reduced by that amount.
If you can use it over and over again, you can attack it over and over again, but I can only use it twice a day. Even if there were only two of them left, it would be difficult to blow up all the players who didn't know where they were.
Including that, you can think that there is no knowledge about holy soul magic in Minor.
I don't know.
"I won't take you... ok." From now on, it's just good to know. ”
When Maina closes the fan sharply, the two doors behind Maina open, and those wearing zoro and shackles come out.
