Crazy Talented Ex-Villain

Chapter 40

wire collapse

“Like a heartless beast. I was told that I was going out on a reconnaissance in the middle of the night, but where is the guy who suddenly accepted it?”

A nameless parrot flies over the battlefield, venting its displeasure.

There was a reason for the constant grumbling.

Kulleong-

In the meantime, Lee Yong-soo’s powerlessness has grown and he thought it would be okay to be 7 kilometers away, but it was because the ‘goddess fragment’ embedded in his heart had repeatedly delivered pain.

It meant not going further than this.

In response, the macaw tilts its feathers and starts turning.

From the north side of the battlefield to the south side, it is the intention to go around the humans while narrowing the distance with Lee Yong-soo.

And soon, when [Three-Dimensional Perception] was activated, the blade of the senses rose.

Dust and stone fragments bouncing from the ground, overheated gun barrels, acrid smoke, and even the stomping of monsters’ feet.

Beyond the limits of sight, information within a specific space rushed in.

＜… It won’t be easy. All level 5 monsters are in flying form, and there are not a few low level monsters.＞

‘How big is it?’

The message that followed is full of negative elements.

＜I think it’s over 7,000. No, definitely beyond. Maybe it was because of the use of conventional weapons, but the limits must have been clear.＞

‘… … .’

＜The defense side has a mountain area. Allied personnel… 2 thousand people. All heroes and no ordinary people.＞

‘It’s more than I thought.’

＜If you look at it, the real ones are around 100.＞

In fact, the [Three-Dimensional Detection] was pointing towards the center of the ranks.

OSSAM and HT, KW and NTY, and other groups of elite raiders lined up behind the simple barrier and show off their presence.

Soon swish, swish.

As the red feathers of the wings suppress the air, the short body rises to a higher position.

＜The bombardment has completely stopped.＞

‘Can you see them?’

＜One has been seen since the beginning. You have a lot of weight.＞

Indeed, in the bird’s pupils, a 30-meter-high pector (a level 3 monster) is reflected.

Four or five trees were bent and broken with a single step, and although the speed was slow, it was enough to feel menacing.

Then, suddenly, with the sound of wheels rolling, a change occurred in the typical human side.

The distance from the group of monsters is approximately one kilometer. When the engagement was imminent, unmanned fighting vehicles and tanks were deployed forward.

Along with that, the people with special abilities also became very busy.

As the tanks marched forward with their large shields, the support staff started strengthening and gave blessings while muttering at the corners of their mouths.

Spirituals raised mechanical robots through summoning and possession, and wizards recited large-scale spells according to their characteristics.

In an instant like that, the battlefield wriggled like it was alive.

pop-!

The beginning of the battle was opened with a volley of unmanned tanks.

＜Not bad. It’s worth waiting until the effective range.＞

‘Details.’

＜The penetration of the shells works. At least the lesser monsters… Is it torn apart?＞

It was.

If previous weapons such as multiple rocket launchers and self-propelled guns could not effectively penetrate the monster’s exoskeleton, the 55-caliber 120mm smoothbore gun would have blown one of its limbs off.

“Keeck!”

As the shells rained down continuously from the highlands to the lowlands in succession, the small monsters were swept away by the shockwave and floated into the air.

Is it good luck or bad.

The foremost Acher (Level 9 monster) survives in the fire and attacks head-on, but only one of the six paws is intact.

There was a limit to the accuracy of Hana Tank, so the moment the number of objects could not be greatly reduced.

＜It’s still a one-way exchange. Machine guns are coming~ Tanks are bumpy~ What are these talented people doing~＞

‘… Again, street.’

＜600 meters. Gradually, an upper-middle class raid is appearing.＞

Only then did the main unit move.

“I ask for the hope that has reached below the clouds, quench the despair-”

“The judgment that will drive away lust, murder, and false will-”

In the first attack, I had enough time to spare, so I use a long spell to unleash a powerful attack.

Kwaddeung!!

Due to the [Water Power Control], the soil floor quickly became muddy, and the [Thunderbolt] exploded on top of it, and a thick high-voltage current spread out and knocked the monster down.

In addition, [Earth Thorn] pulled out dozens of awls from the mud floor, and [Earth Tool] was activated on a similar line.

Huge forearms rise from the soil and crush the foe.

＜Nothing special. It’s rank 4-6 for an upper-middle level raid, and this is something you can do well enough.＞

‘… … .’

＜They say they don’t harvest black-haired animals. Why is there no response even when I praise you?＞

‘Okay. distance?’

＜… two hundred meters. Wait for a moment. Now we have to leave the battlefield.＞

Soon after, the parrot stops gliding and moves away from the wing by moving its wings.

Near the hillside.

As the high-ranking hero raised his ability, the aftermath was spreading out in all directions.

＜What is it, ambiguous? The condensed energy is like a 4th grade higher.＞

‘… Level 4 and higher are definitely senior heroes.’

＜Since when did you rank 4 as high?＞

‘It’s like that in Korea.’

＜Aha. So, from 1 to 4 to the top? It’s shit.＞

Contrary to the mocking tone, the 12th place in the financial world, the remote dealer belonging to the ATK news agency, shows a different level of power.

[Light Particle Multi Strike].

The technique that reached the end of the combination process gathered halos on both wrists of a woman in her 30s.

Hundreds of bundles of light beams were emitted right after the round rim, called halo in foreign languages, was pushed forward.

The target is a single entity walking leisurely from six hundred meters away.

It was a level 3 monster factor.

* * *

Area B-3.

I put my thoughts in the gap between the troops waiting for battle.

Should I have forewarned the existence of Igricus (fire worms)?

not.

You probably wouldn’t have believed it in the first place, but even if you did, you wouldn’t have been able to handle the aftermath.

Even so, I feel uncomfortable on one side of my heart… Because the inevitable sad news flew in.

＜It’s gone. The balance is completely broken.＞

The parrot adds an explanation in a dry tone instead of its distinctive roaring voice.

At first glance, the situation that seemed to end easily turned into mud with the appearance of Igricus.

＜The plan that prioritized safety became poison. The 5th level airborne monsters were preoccupied with the advanced raid group, and the top level raid group was preoccupied with Pector… If you get attacked from under your feet, there is no answer.＞

It was a pity.

At the beginning of the engagement, it was good to control the path of low-level monsters with a 4-meter-high simple barrier and then treat them like a hunt.

In the end, it seems that there was no capacity to make up for the absence of information.

“… Did you die a lot?”

＜The first raid involved three teams. At least six deaths.＞

“… … .”

Read from noble mtl dot com

More than expected.

＜You know what his traits are. Ordinary people, seeing the flames spewing out of their jaws, say that they are fire worms, in reality-＞

yes i know

A snout with the [Spatial Exploration] attribute.

Normally, it was used to dig up infinite grains of soil, and in battle, it was used to permanently damage the enemy.

＜Anyway, this is the end of the first line. While I was dealing with the fire worms, someone else broke down the simple barrier. The front line itself is collapsing, so even the heroes are retreating.＞

“… I’d like you to come back as well.”

＜Oops!＞

“… … .”

The excited voice returned, but there was no time to be upset.

A heavy silence fell over the son-in-law, as if news from the front line had already been delivered.

Tok, tok.

Just in time, I turned my head to a hand tapping on my shoulder, and Da-yoon Kim tapped my ear.

“Put on your earphones. Don’t take it off from now on.”

“yes.”

A night where even the insects held their breath because of the roar.

As I pushed the mechanical device into my ear canal, a familiar voice flowed in.

oh lieutenant

[…] The battle is over. It took 43 minutes and 38 seconds. The raiding party in front is retreating sequentially, and we have been ordered to defend the B-3 area.]

In response, the members of ‘Team Manuvia’ showed off their pale complexion.

If that sounds sarcastic, it is.

[Current enemy size estimated at 3,200, including one Tier 3 monster. He was injured in the previous battle, and high-ranking allies are scheduled to be put in after reorganization, so there is no need to worry too much.]

“… One?”

[Yes. It is one.]

Then all of a sudden

Even though I knew it would draw attention, I ended up asking the question in the end, and Lieutenant Oh also gave an answer without hesitation.

Considering the nonchalant speech, it seemed that he did not know what he said.

[Let’s all be brave. It won’t be of much help, but I’m on standby at 2nd Field Command. I can win. No, you have to win. To be honest… Neither you nor I can run away anyway.]

“This Lieutenant Oh is right. It’s all about dying here, running away and being court-martialed. Since this is what happened, try turning a crisis into an opportunity!”

Soon, the atmosphere was aroused thanks to Da-yoon Kim’s comment, but I personally did not agree with her opinion.

A crisis was just a crisis.

After a while.

As if the idiots had lost their temper, they lifted each other up and built up a measureless confidence.

They said that it would be the first time to experience the wave, that it would be an opportunity to build a reputation, and that it would only take time.

It’s just that Kim Da-yun’s idiot isn’t the only author who tries to push fear away with bluff.

I watch as nearly two hundred sparrows chirp… keep silent at the end

As time passed, you would come to understand it.

“Someone help me… … .”

“… … .”

just as expected.

By the time the parrot returned to my right shoulder, survivors came across the bridge.

Even at first glance, he still suffered serious injuries, including his arms, shoulders, and stomach that he was holding onto to keep his intestines from spilling out.

Naturally, the atmosphere in Area B-3 subsided again.

“Is it possible to reorganize?”

“… High-ranking people will be different. Couldn’t they have brought it by helicopter?”

The answer to that only I hear.

＜They fled to the east. Even if you reorganize, it will be difficult to come quickly.＞

“… … .”

＜Well, I do have some good news though. Factor followed them.＞

As a group of survivors came over the bridge in succession, I finished assessing the situation and decided on a course of action.

It’s the same reason why one or two level 3 monsters are too early to handle.

Hold on until you can hold on, if you can’t-

＜You have to give up and run away.＞

“… … .”
