Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle
Episode 862: Take the Citadel
And the earth is overturned with a violent earthquake. However, the shock as if the stars were trembling was unbearable. Furthermore, the anomaly does not subside by swaying alone. The Survey Explorers, fled by these bodies, see the rubble come out. It was like a metal attracted to magnetism, and they surged in one place.
What is this?!
Letty screamed, avoiding the rubble.
"No way, Mr. Ledge--"
The rubble surrounds the ledge. Revives a solid stronghold while bonding together.
You're picking up the remains of the fort we built!?
Ledge was no longer counted as a single researcher. The remnants of the Ledge Stronghold, which the [Damascus Union] had built with huge resources under its command, remained under his control. It envelops his body and becomes a castle fortress of crookedness.
He became the master of a fortress made of rubble.
"Ah! All of you, evacuate!"
Eye notices something and shouts. Soon after the Knights moved, their sturdy silver armor was enveloped by the blue flames of TB class mechanics.
"Gwaaaaa!?"
"What!? Bullet!? No, mechanical encapsulation--"
"The old man can only use live ammo."
"Shit, that's..."
"That 's--"
One after the other, the blue light is emitted, and the researchers and explorers are defeated. The aim was accurate, and sometimes ten people were pierced by a single bullet and fell. Confusion called for confusion, and the Knights were losing control. That's how they find out.
No way, the city defense equipment is under control!?
Wade was stunned.
The enormous citadel built by Ledge, "The Collapsed Ruined Castle Lord [Scrap and Build]", had enormous cannons all over it. All of them were urban defenses.
A stationary BB Aurora cannon emits a dazzling blue blast that transforms the surrounding area into a burning field of pale flames. Mechanical sniper guns indiscriminately fire TB-class mechanical encapsulated shells that investigators cannot handle individually. Daringly approaching the citadel, the bullet storm from the Live Melee Defense System instantly transformed it into a beehive.
"It's hell...."
Someone stood up and muttered. Faster than a voice that agrees with his flippant feelings, he vanished into a blue ray.
"Is that possible!?"
Letty screamed as she picked up Wade and pulled back.
There is no precedent! But it's actually happening in front of me!
On the other hand, Wade shouted back with a crying face. If we don't raise our voices to each other, the constant gunshots will keep the conversation going.
Perhaps it was more a misappropriation of administrator authority than the arithmetic ability of the divine nuclear entity.
"How could such a thing happen to Koshua-Egdelwon!?"
Because I was originally a senior NPC equivalent to a manager!
Koshua-Egdelwon managed a large facility called the Critical Information Records Sealing Base. That authority also applied to the City Defense Armor usage authority. That was Wade's conclusion.
In the first place, when the fort collapses, it becomes a natural object type. In principle, it's like hanging a tent from a tree branch on a field and pitching a tent. "
It's not the same!
In principle, it's the same! The scale is just sharp and snappy!
Bun-bun and shells fly and rays sweep through your cheeks. Letty and Wade jumped into the trenches that had been set up behind them just in case.
And I thought I was going to die.
Me too. It's a body that won't hurt even urban defense equipment. "
Leaving their backs on the trench wall, they finally stroked their chests. Lettie listened to Wade's subtle jokes, while the impatient faces of Lacto continued to reach the trenches.
"Hey, that's odd."
I want to say Ledge, but I didn't tell you to go this far.
”It's difficult to cut off the flowing rocks that stiffen my neck.”
They leak their feelings to their mouths, and in the meantime, they can do things such as recover LP without rest. A lot of sacrifices have been made, but we are still far from giving up. I retreated to the trenches to go on the next offensive.
Letty-san! Thank goodness you're safe.
There, an eye with a flag hung up. She softened her expression by confirming that all aspects of [White Deer Anvil] were present.
"I managed to stay alive." At best, the damage is minor. ”
“It's superimposed. I died about a third of the time.”
Ai seemed to be on the move to secure personnel who could work with him to restore the battlefield. She said it was a snare, but it was quite an anomaly that the elite First Fighting Group among the [Knights of the Great Eagle] would release more than 30% of the defeated. For them to excel at working together as an army, leaving so many vacancies is the exact equivalent of losing limbs.
“We're currently also in touch with the BBC and Mel. Just a loose collaboration like a regular event raid boss can't break that ledge.”
“You're right, it's not the same as defeating the Veritaine.”
"I'll help you with anything we can. Your body is annoying, isn't it?
Ai is courageous in Lacto's words. If we could work more closely with the faces of the [Shirataga Onen], the possibility of attacking the Ledge would also have greatly increased.
“If Astra had been here, things would have been better.”
"Brother... the head of the regiment did something stupid at the information recording base..." Of course, we're still working hard to return to the front. ”
When Torka mentions the most powerful force out here, Ai answers with a frown between his brows. Astra was not in a very good position to take part in the battle at the present time, as a price for her reckless actions.
How's Chiffon doing over there?
"There's no change here, either." I keep falling asleep. ”
Letty said, "Just the fox." With that, Eye gorgeously passes through and puts her arms around her troubles.
"I don't know why she's in a coma." If you manage to come back to life, I would be grateful for your strength. "
"Well, it will happen eventually." If you haven't logged out, you're probably still doing something about it. "
Amy replied casually to her worried voice. Aye gently laughed when she noticed her concern.
"That's right. Right now, we just need to do our best with the personnel and supplies we have here."
Eye renews her determination. Letty and the others nodded when they saw the pitiful expression on their faces.
Fortunately, it looks like Ledge isn't moving from the spot.
Well, it's insane that the tent should move.
“We need to gather and share information and plan countermeasures right now.”
They gaze at the citadel of Tsubaki, which is nestled in the sea. Apart from instantly shooting down the occasional brave investigator, it is quietly stopping. Apparently, we can't do any harm unless we're within range. However, managers do not know what changes will occur in the future.
I'll give you as much information as I can. Commander, we're still doing the math on the manager's side. "
“It helps, because now we need to join forces to destroy Ledge's tooth castle.”
Wade also offered strong support. In the first place, what is currently being used as a weapon in that citadel is the city defenses they gave us. I can't say that I am not responsible even if my mouth is broken.
They shake each other's hands firmly and nod.
"We have set up a new Interim Operations HQ at the rear." Ket C. and Mel and the rest of the team will be there. ”
Roger that. Well then, let's do it. "
That is how they walk out.
Tall and quiet, it was overlooked by a rubble citadel.
