Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Episode 21: The Undead Groups
Although I still can't see the other person's face, I found an undead crowd in the vicinity. I'm sure it's an emergency.
From the moment I realized it, a lot of things started to move.
Firstly, the deployment of the soldiers arranged by Prithue. This was done in confidence. More than twice as many soldiers were placed at all gates, and soldiers were ready to deploy at any time.
Especially the soldiers placed near the nobility gate. If the nobles are involved as they read, it is likely that this gate will be used to bring undead into the city.
Next, secure the required items.
Mr Hulina!
"Hya?!
Hulina in the counter replies with a strange voice surprised by my voice. The bundle of hair above my head is chirping up and down.
There's a line of snakes in front of her… Looks like she's doing all right. It's... not that bad.
"Wound medicine! Can you hurry up and get the numbers?!
Huh?
"Mr. Sinya.
Turning to the voice called from behind, Mr. Dorto stood there.
"Mr. Dolto! Long time no see! Hmm? Aren't you?
What's wrong with you?
"Actually, I hear it's a tough situation. I was wondering if I needed help.
"Where did you hear that...?
Mr Hulina. Respond to your request as much as you can.
"Yes."
Hulina lowers her head to Dorto.
"What? That?
After Miss Dorto left the guild, she finally got an answer.
"Does it mean that Hulina is the Associate Master... and that she can command him... that Dorto is the Master of the Commercial Alliance?!
"Yes."
"No way... I thought you were a nice uncle..."
"This is the town of the Beast tribe. When people become masters, there is a lot of trouble. That's why they're lying down.
"But, you know, you used to go around a lot.
"Dorto comes from a small village near Delsmark and occasionally turns around the villages to unload things cheaply.
"Kh... that asshole..."
"Fufufu, don't say that. Because I'm a very good person.
That's right.
"Besides, was the wound medicine a reinforcement type?
"Ah, we're about to start a pretty big fight. Many adventurers and soldiers will be wounded.
I'll buy everything I can from the Adventurers Guild, so can you get as many as you can?
"Everything?!
That's amazing.
"It's just an emergency. I have Etha's permission, please.
"I see. Leave it to me.
"And I want you to deliver it to the Adventurers Guild as soon as possible, even for now.
"I'll get to it right away.
I waved back to Hulina and went to the Adventurers Guild.
"Sinya! How was it?!
When we arrive at the Alliance, Etha, who was waiting for us now or now, rushes in.
"Agreed. They're going to deliver some of it right now.
Creation also proceeds at a rapid pitch.
"Big deal! Welcome!"
Etha jumps on the Adventurer Alliance counter.
"Listen!!
Alliance staff and adventurers in the lobby shouted loudly enough to make Bikri and his body stronger.
"Emergency Quests Starting Now! It's about an undead crusade hidden near Delsmark!
"Emergency quest"?
"It's unusual.
Etha's voice was echoed by adventurers in the lobby.
"Confirmed monsters are zombies! Skeleton, it's Lace! There may be others, but the problem is that number!
Together, it's assumed to climb close to 400!
"Four hundred?!
"That's an amazing number.
"Depending on the number of clashes, we'll have enough rewards!
Instead! If an adventurer above rank C doesn't participate in this emergency quest... "
"What?
"You and I will train at the training camp.
A shadowy smile. I'm scared, Ethan.
"Hey, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey..."
"It was a massacre mistake..."
"You don't have to join anyone who wants to meet this ship-eye leopard, but in that case... you don't have to.
…………
"... yaaaaaaa!!!
"Hey, I'll take it! Compared to the Alliance Master, you don't look like an undead baby!
"We'll take it too! I don't want to die yet!
Adventurers flocking to the counter. An adventurer running away from an Alliance to spread the word.
"If you're targeting the tigers and our city, let's attack and get out of here.
You don't have to wait long.
"You're right, but you're starting to look pretty flashy, right?
"If someone is lurking inside Delsmark, I can't help it. If you're gonna find out, you're gonna have to go at once!
"It looks gorgeous.
Speaking of which, it's like Ether...
"Kuhahahaha! Sinya."
"What?
"I don't like the way they do things. We're gonna blow it up.
Ah.
Etha's face is serious. There are no jokes or lies.
Bang!
When the door opens, Hulina comes in.
"Thank you for waiting! Enhanced scratch medicine delivery!
"Early!?
"I asked for Sinya. Whatever you let go, you give it priority.
Besides, it's the most profitable story I've ever had!
"You guys! Highly effective wound medicine to distribute for free! Take one at a time!
"Highly effective wound medicine?
"There's no need for scratch medicine! I'll take it for free!
Full festival noise in the guild.
There are people running around that way. After a while, an adventurer opens the door and enters.
"Hey! Looks like there's an undead herd hiding near the villages of Lyakchi and Chopoka!
"What?! Hey, let's go!
"Wait!
Adventurers have a very high information-gathering capability. It spreads over a wide area and collects information from all sides.
The Adventurers in the Alliance were almost zero in a few minutes.
"The number of adventurers combined is less than half the number of enemies, but they can handle it.
"Do we do our job?
"It's been a long time since I've seen you run out.
Etha strokes the weapon down around her hips and hips.
Hook claws.
It's a weapon that mimics the claws of a beast that you wear and use in your hands.
At a glance, it can be seen that Etha's claw has fine scratches and is very worn out.
The four thick and long blades are carefully cared for and glow dull.
"I don't know who you are, but I'm going to make you regret pulling me out into battle.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Back then...
"Death Knight!
Hmm?
"The undead lurking everywhere are being attacked by adventurers one after the other!
"... what...?
"Nh......"
A man stared at by the Knight of Death freezes his spine.
"... call him and let him handle it.
"Excuse me..."
"Ah... I see. He was also led by me.
………
"... it's a little early, but if they find out, I can't help it. I've had enough of them, so let's get into it. Let me get ready.
Ha!
One of my men leaves the scene.
"Shit... I don't know who it is, but did anyone notice my plan?
Besides, attacking my friends... will never be forgiven.
"Death Knight!
Someone else appears and calls the Knight of Death.
"What is it? Let's get you ready.
The Death Knight replies with an frustrated voice.
"Yes, there are... a lot of soldiers at the gate..."
"... heh. Did you notice where I am? [M] It's pretty hard to do. I really want you to be my friend... fuhihihi.
Besides, what are you doing here? Come and kick 'em out.
I can't believe I'm playing... I don't have enough faith?
"Su, now!
"I'm starting to get interested, so let's go have a little fun. Fuhihi."
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Through the noble gate with Etha, overwhelmed by the difference in sight that spreads before her.
"It's like a different world.
In front of you is the sunset Delce Plateau. A wide ground that has grown a little higher from other lands. In the vast land are houses with pods, pods, and big houses.
The houses are luxurious and rustic, but they all make splendid buildings that cannot be seen in civilian towns.
In most of the terraces, weeds are cut clean and the main road is cobbled. A variety of beautiful flowers bloom in the garden.
"How do nobles protect their appearance and power? It's the only creature I can think of.
"Look, sister..."
"Oops. That's rude. Prithue was a royal family. Sometimes I forget.
Etha's reluctance to apologize. You can do it because you're close. Etha might do it with anyone...
"No, that's the proof that you're so close to me. I'm glad.
Besides, what Etha said wasn't wrong. This time. There are some people who didn't move their soldiers to my voice. How many nobles are involved... "
As a royal, you must not miss the failure. It darkens my face.
Dear Prithu...
"But now I don't know what to do with that...
An evil hobby building that looks radiant at its deepest point. Zombies and skeletons came out of the garden across the hedge. And a lace floating on top of it.
Pickup!
Event Occurred! … protect the Delsmark.
Time Limit… 10 hours
Achievements… Destroy Hostiles
Reward... Unnamed Sword
Accept?
Yes, no.
Pickup!
Naturally. Yes.
Hundreds seem to be here. As Cynthia predicted, this must be the place.
"We have forty soldiers together. Overwhelmingly unfavourable in numbers.
"If you take down three of them all by yourself, the change will come, right? That's easy.
Etha laughs invincibly.
"Dear Prithue! Please step back!"
"You guys! The opponent has the magic to manipulate the body into undead! If you get hurt, you're not gonna die!
Etha speaks to the soldiers.
"An adventurous mouth licked! There's no way we're gonna be late as undead!
"Let's go!
Soldiers ran into the Undead crowd with a shout.
"Focus your magic on Les! Let go!"
When red and pale light was seen in the hands of the soldiers in the rear, a fireball jumped out of their hands at once.
Some of the fireballs that flew along with the flashy sound catch Lace.
The undead rose to avoid the flames.
"Go!
Soldiers with running melee weapons start the fight.
The Skeletons were the first to engage. They attack with indifference, but they are slow and easy to defeat with a simple physical attack.
It is troublesome to have a large number of them spread sideways, unlike the underground labyrinth, but there are no soldiers who could be killed.
"We're coming too!
Etha puts on her hook claws, shouts and runs without looking at us.
Unusual forward tilt posture. Worry about rubbing your chest on the ground. It looks hard to run, but it's pretty fast.
"Don't fall back!
Several soldiers reacted to Etha's voice and paved the way.
Etha defeats Skeletons one after the other.
"Kuhahahaha!
Etha laughs at both corners of her mouth. From the side, it certainly looks like a female leopard with her teeth peeled out is in trouble.
"That's a fancy way to fight!
I also arrive next to Etha and shoot into the flames of resentment that I had prepared.
Goww!
A flamboyant, pale flame envelopes Skeleton's head.
Gashan!
Skeletons roll over cobblestones in pieces.
"After all, you can't manipulate Undead himself. Or is it because you're being manipulated first...?
"Either way, the undead here has only a simple attack magic effect. Then there's only one thing to do.
Ah.
It's still the beginning of the battle. I don't know when I'll need magic. A monster of this magnitude can deal adequately with the magic of the soldiers, and if the Knights of the Holy Knights are against them, they will surely show up somewhere. We need to keep the magic we need to use there.
"Uhh... ahh..."
Behind the skeleton, the zombie appeared.
The monster rank is C. It's a slow-moving monster, but it's hard to shake if it's powerful and caught. With Etha and my status, it would be easy, but the soldiers must have thought death was certain the moment they were captured.
Fortunately, like some famous zombie game, it is not contagious, but it is forbidden to be alarmed.
"Hey, Sinya.
Etha, who was beside me, moved her jaw quick.
There are many zombies in the back. They'll be villagers from the day they dress up.
Old people, young people, women, and... even children are zombied.
"She's not even ten years old..."
The flesh on my cheeks peeled off and one eyeball popped out. I have a big scar on my stomach and the blood stained on my clothes is dry in Paris.
And others in white faithful clothes. There are even people with gold embroidery.
"The scum... will never forgive me. I'll kill them all!"
Etha snorts her teeth.
Crawl your torso onto the cobblestone so that your cat can stretch and swallow the claws of both hands.
"Uhhhh!!
Etha screams with her teeth peeled out, kicking off the ground and throwing herself into a herd of zombies.
Every time the hook claws draw a line, the zombies are chopped one after the other.
Huh!
"Huh?!
Wind blades fly over Etha, leaving scars on the cobbles.
Etha flew backwards the moment she sensed the magic. However, the left arm was grabbed, and the blood seeped into the forearm.
"You're out... the Holy Knights.
Behind the herd of zombies are those in white faithful clothes.
Red yarn embroidered with symbols.
There are thirty people.
"Was it the Knights of the Holy Knights?
"You don't think you can get your hands on our city and go home for free?
And in the words of Etha, there was no broken smile with Niyaniya.
"They're disgusting..."
"... Etha.
I throw the vial out of my waist bag at Etha.
"... what is this?
"It's an item called the Fake Dead. If you swing it on your body, it will be unrecognized by the undead for a certain amount of time.
"Heh, you've got something really interesting.
"Me and Etha. Only one at a time, but we need to kill all the scum in the back before the undead. I'll decide at once.
"Kuhaha. Sinya's pretty flashy, too!
Remove the vial lid and sprinkle a light purple liquid over the body.
"I don't know if it works... but I believe in Sinya.
"Trust me."
"Kuhahahaha!
Even so, Etha makes the cobblestones bite into the claws of both hands.
"Urahhhh!!
But this time, you can not only kick the ground, but also focus on both arms.
The hook nails that have gotten bitten into the cobblestone draw Etha's body. Etha flies like a bullet. It's 1.5 times faster than before.
A magical formation depicted in front of the sacred knights in the back emits a pale green light.
Invisible wind magic flies to Etha one after another.
However, she jumps left and right at the top speed.
Ranged attacks on such opponents are impossible without considerable skill.
"Ghhhh!!
Soon, thin Etha crosses her arms and swings through.
"Gah... ah..."
A squad member whose face is diced.
"Haaa!
A nearby squad member draws his sword and slashes Etha from behind.
Fuck!
The sword tip penetrates the throat of the Regiment member who tried to attack Etha. The vivid feeling comes to your hands. But I don't feel sick or disobedient at all.
"Kuhaha! I haven't had my back protected in years!
Gashh!
"Am I not satisfied?
Zashh!
"I don't know anymore reliable people!
Bush!
As we speak, we continue to multiply the bodies one by one.
"Nh, what are these guys... ghh!
One of the Knights of the Holy Order is developing a magical formation.
"Fire magic...? I shouldn't use it because it affects the undead...?! Etha, come on!
Etha stops by and immediately draws a magical formation.
Goww!
One of the Knights of the Holy Order shoots into a zombie who has knocked down a fireball.
Do-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-g!
Cobblestones, dust, and pieces of zombie flesh are scattered around.
It's the same elementary fire magic firebomb that exploded in the city of Popol. As soon as the specified conditions are met, this magic, which is installable, causes an explosion.
I was putting something with this magic inside the... villagers' bellies of zombies. I'm glad I didn't have to detonate the zombies behind me because I was fighting away.
Are you prepared for this battle...? I hope that other Zombies on the battlefield do not have the same magic.
Soldiers who saw the explosion will also refrain from using fire magic against zombies.
"Surround me!
"... how far are we going to go..."
Etha and I protected ourselves from the explosion with a magic shield that was almost deployed, but Etha's face was filled with anger. My face won't look any different.
Etha, 10 seconds, please!
"Leave it to me!
I quickly drew a magic team. It is magic that can overwhelm the opponent without involving Etha.
"Aim for the man!
"Don't miss me!
Gwaaa!
Etha slashes down the teammates who attack one after the other.
Boom, boom, boom!
When the magic team glows blue, it creates a ring of water that surrounds me.
"Fly!
Etha, who responded to my voice, jumped high with her strength on both feet.
The water that was drifting around grew thin and flew towards all the surroundings at a speed that I thought had disappeared.
Intermediate water magic. Amputation water.
Water ejected under high pressure becomes a blade and hits. Powerful range attack magic, but the effective range is narrow, about five meters.
In this case, Etha helped bring the team together within range.
Stupid...
When Etha landed lightly, the ten members of the regiment who were around him were halfway around the umbilicus (navel).
Dochadcha and built-in spreads over the cobblestone, and blood flows through the gap between the cobblestones.
"Kuhahahaha! Use this level of magic with that much swordsmanship! I can't lose!
Goww!
At the foot of Etha, who was about to run away, a pale flame burned up.
"Huh?!
"Kill as many of my friends as you like... come on.
The voice of a young child. As soon as I heard it, the faces of the members of the team around me turned into something smelly.
"Death Knight!
"Death Knight!
Those in white faithful clothes cross their arms and wrap their thumbs around their fists.
Coming from behind the faithful, united in black clothes... children...?
"Ah... you..."
"Hmm? You seem to know me. Have you seen him anywhere?
Etha's left hand touched her eyelid.
I heard about Lisa, the one who took Etha's left eye back in the day... that's the kid...?
"Ah! I remember! You avoided my blow in the Glades!
Black hood, what I saw in its shadow was round, unfocused eyes.
And a twisted, up-string moon-like mouth.
"I see you again.
A frozen voice that doesn't seem to belong to a child.
"That guy... I don't know him.
"Death Knight... an adventurer named Sinya who killed Agaville in Popol.
"Agaville...? Who's that?"
"This is Agavil the Silver Knight who arrived under the Knight of Death.
"Ah! That's useless! I remember!
I didn't even hear the simple orders to crush the countryside. He lacks faith!
You said you needed it to get that dungeon. If you put a child on a shield, you can drop one or two of them in the city right away. Hey? "
"Yes."
Gilli...
He ordered you to attack Popol...
The hand with the sword subconsciously strengthens its power.
"Shielding a child...?
"...? What are you angry about?
"Don't you understand...?
"I don't know. Everyone who doesn't have faith is rubbish, right? Even children. What's wrong with killing him?
With the Death Knight who leans his neck and asks.
Mr. Sylvie's face comes to mind.
"Still... you die because you don't have enough faith. I don't really want to use it.
Kick the body of one of his men on the ground.
"But it's okay. I'll guide you. [M]
The Knight of Death draws a magical formation with his fingers. Magic Faction I've ever seen.
"A flame of resentment!
You're turning a corpse into an undead!
Boo!
A blazing flame flies into the chest of a body.
