I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game Chapter 48

◈ 048. [Free Exploration] Duel Knights (2)

Actually, low-level golems were too easy enemies for a party of this level.

“No matter what, I thought it would take less than an hour to clear all of them… .”

The fourth and last room in Area 1.

Kicking the shattered fragments of the golem, I collapsed.

The four party members defeated the golems in their own way.

Flash-!

Every time Jupiter snapped his fingers, a bolt of lightning melted the golem

. Fu-wook!

Damian’s arrow pierced the golem’s magic core.

Tsukaak-!

Lucas cut the entire body in two along with the magic core at the center of the golem.

Lastly, Evangeline is

Tuqwaaang!

Just smashed it.

He rushed in, stabbed himself with a lance, and struck the immobilized golem with his shield.

None of the golems could withstand these two hits, and the golems shattered with fragments splashing.

“yap! Yayap!”

Jumping around with her tiny body, Evangeline alternately wielded a cavalry spear and a shield.

It’s a little wordy, but it’s like a flying squirrel looking for food.

Bang!

“Urasshaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

After striking the last golem with her shield and crushing it into powder, Evangeline let out a roar with a flushed face. how refreshing

“One more! Is there one more!”

“That was the last time, junior.”

[Area 1: Dry Drain]

– Clear Progress: Normal Room 4/4

Killed a total of 20 rock golems in 4 rooms. No one was even injured.

‘It’s so much easier here than I thought.’

The difficulty level is too low to be used as party play training. Because each person can break them all with their own skills.

Because it was a low-level golem, the materials that could be harvested were mediocre.

I had to break the magic core to stop it, so the magic core was all shattered.

“It looks like everyone has warmed up, so let’s take a break and start attacking District 2 right away.”

I said as I walked down the last corridor of the gutter.

“District 2 will be more difficult than here, so don’t relax.”

Actually, at the current party level, District 2 would be too easy.

I hope the difficulty can be moderately difficult. It has to be a bit difficult to study.

After a long walk, the drainage ditch ended and an open field appeared.

[Area 2: Hidden Back Alley]

A street lamp was flickering and scattering light in a back alley surrounded by darkness.

It is a safe base that was activated last time.

And beyond that, I could see the panoramic view of the city lined with skyscrapers. Beneath it, darkness shimmered like that of the deep sea.

Examining the city wrapped in darkness, Evangeline opened her mouth.

“What is this… ?”

“A place to explore today.”

I also swallowed dry saliva and fixed the lucky strike in my hand.

Finally, the moment has come to explore the hell below the lake here in earnest.

‘I have to dig up a lot of magic cores.’

The full-fledged tempaming also begins!

***

I decided to take a short break before leaving to explore District 2.

Even though it was relatively easy, I had to fight monsters. Fatigue, of course, kicks in.

Other than that, there were other things to do, so I declared a break, and the party members sat around comfortably in a safe base and started to rest in their own way.

Dalgrak. Dalgrak.

Evangeline and Lucas took out lunch boxes from their supply bags and ate them. Like these bodybuilder knights.

Lucas is naturally good at eating, but Evangeline was formidable.

He inflated his small cheeks like a squirrel and gently scooped the contents of the lunch box into his mouth.

“I ate well~”

Evangeline, who had sliced one of the lunchboxes as if hiding her eyes from Maparam, shook the empty lunchbox.

“Are there any more?”

“Have you eaten already?!”

“I’m not even going to say goodbye. Are you hungry after eating this?”

Evangeline started to rummage through her supply bag to see if there was anything else to eat. After all, it’s a teenager in the middle of growing up, so it’s not normal?

“Mmmm!”

Lucas also began to hurriedly stuff the rest of his lunch box into his mouth. No, don’t feel competitive with a child like this.

“Hoo~.”

Jupiter is smoking alone in the corner over there.

He puts a cigar in his mouth and blows out smoke.

The way he doesn’t care whether or not there are minors at the party is like a veteran.

I said a word as I passed by him.

“Quit your cigarettes, Jupiter.”

You must live a long time, Grandma. I mean, there are not just one or two stages to take you into.

Jupiter just smiled and didn’t answer.

In fact, if I were a grandmother who would hear someone nagging me, I would have stopped drinking and smoking long ago and lived a desirable life.

He may have given up his mercenary work and spent his old age in a quiet age.

After passing Jupiter, I approached Damian.

“Ah, Prince.”

Damian, who was holding a little bit of water from the water bottle, looked at me. I nodded.

“Damian. Are you feeling well?”

“sure. There’s nothing too hard about it.”

I handed over the luggage I was carrying on my back to Damian, who was smiling brightly.

“receive.”

“yes? this is… ?”

“It’s something called a horse gun.”

It’s the SR grade horse gun ‘Hunter’s Retribution’ from the previous box.

When Damian unpacked his luggage, a long long gun with an antique design came out.

Purple magic overflowed from the magic core embedded in the barrel.

“The power is incomparably stronger than that of a crossbow, but instead, the weapon itself is unstable and the number of ammunition is limited.”

Damian swallowed dry saliva and picked up his rifle.

I don’t even need to explain how to write it. There is a clairvoyance correction, so Damian will learn how to use it as soon as he holds it.

“For now, try using it as a secondary weapon.”

“It is heavy. More than a crossbow… … .”

“It weighs quite a bit, doesn’t it?”

But from now on, you will have to carry five or six guns like this. You’ll need to build up some stamina.

Damian looked at me and hesitated.

“It looks very expensive. Can I use this?”

“of course. I’m giving it to you, so use it comfortably. Just throw it, break it, and do whatever you want.”

“You can’t do that!”

Frightened, Damian grabbed the horse gun in his arms. After a while, the boy laughed loudly.

“Thank you, Prince. I will use it carefully.”

what am i more grateful for You cheat character guy.

I smiled and turned to the rest of the party.

Evangeline and Lucas are munching on the biscuits they brought for a snack (pigs?), and Jupiter is about to light a cigar.

I clapped.

“Did everyone get enough rest? Shall we go then?”

Everyone stood up without saying anything and prepared for battle.

I nodded my head after examining how each of them raised their torches and lanterns.

“let’s go!”

To the second section of this dungeon city.

The moment I stepped on the five-colored tiles laid out neatly on the floor and stepped into the back alley of the city.

Tring!

A system window popped up. It was information about the dungeon area.

[Area 2: Hidden Back Alley]

– Clear progress: Normal room 0/4 Boss room 0/1

– Treasure chest obtained: 0/5

There are as many as 5 treasure chests that can be obtained in Area 2 here.

‘It’s time to strengthen the party’s equipment in earnest!’

Counting the items that can be obtained here, I nodded.

I’ll eat you all!

***

On a straight road lined with old brick walls on the left and right without any buildings.

Our party is advancing cautiously.

The dark alley gives off an eerie air.

Even in Korea, where every street is lined with street lights, back alleys at night are eerie.

However, the back alleys of the Lake Kingdom are dark without even a ray of light, let alone streetlights.

It’s not even creepy. Relying on the torch in his hand, every step he took made the hairs on his body stand on end.

‘It’s actually a monster’s den.’

Not only ghosts and ghosts, but also all sorts of ferocious monsters abound in the city under the lake.

The good news is that only one type is available at a time. In this exploration, that’s a golem.

‘But even a golem is scary when it suddenly jumps out of the darkness!’

If you think of a golem the size of a house suddenly popping out from the other side of the alley… … . Just imagining it is terrifying.

however.

Kwakwang-!

As soon as I thought about it, it really jumped out!

The right flank of the alleyway we were advancing cautiously on. A huge golem popped out of the brick wall.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaagh fuck!”

Frightened, I leaped backwards and involuntarily spat out curse words.

It seems that you have already entered the first dungeon room. It’s all in a dark back alley, so you should be able to see it!

It was a steampunk-style golem with metal armor and a coffin all over its body.

The golems in Area 1 are so big that they look cute. It looks like a huge truck.

Goo oh-!

The gigantic golem stretched out its arms as it let out a fierce drive sound through its entire body and spewed misty steam like a train from its entire body.

“I will stop you!”

Shouting, Lucas ran to the right and swung his sword.

visor!

The golem’s arm, touched by the sword strike, bounced back greatly.

Tring!

Then a system window popped up in front of my eyes.

[Hidden Back Alley – Room 1]

– Annihilate the enemy!

– Lv.15 Steam Golem < Elite >: 2 level

15. steam golem. elite monster. this is not important

‘Two bodies?’

Frightened, I shouted.
