I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game Chapter 634

634. [Side Story] Dragon Slayer (2)

An armor set cast with the magic core of Baalzebub, Lord of the Flies.

His name is [Owner of the High Tower].

One of the pseudonyms of Lord of the Flies was adopted as the equipment name.

It’s a chain armor made of small magic metal chains that are tightly connected.

If you just wear it, it feels like a coat that is connected up and down.

However, each piece of this chain is all reprocessed magic core.

In addition to the 3 SSR grade Lord of the Flies magic cores, 100 R grade normal individual magic cores were additionally hammered and processed.

It was a luxury that was possible because the mana core obtained from the previous defense war had rotted and overflowed.

As a result of this generous mana core flex, each piece of chain that makes up the armor can function as an auxiliary mana source.

They resonate with each other to help the wearer calculate their magic power.

This armor itself serves as a super-special magic orb.

‘It’s similar to what the Lord of the Flies did.’

The Lord of the Flies was a collection of countless flies. And the consciousness of the flies that make up my body was integrated and used for the main body’s magic calculation.

This equipment made from their magic cores also resembled them eerily.

‘In addition to this, [individual barrier creation artifacts] were put in.’

As expected, it was the spoils of the Lord of the Flies, and it was obtained from the mutant flies.

We acquired a little over 40, and thanks to that, we can use the small barriers they used individually.

‘The alchemist team had a hard time…’

To apply this artifact technology to our armor, the alchemist team had to squeeze their brains out for weeks.

And it was wonderfully successful. This armor [Owner of the High Tower] was the first armor to which the Barrier Artifact was fully incorporated and the technology was applied.

Not only does it create a barrier according to the will of the wearer, but another feature unique to this armor, which is an overspec, has been created.

The chains at the hit area automatically detect, react, and calculate the enemy’s attack to create a local barrier to block the enemy’s attack.

In game terms, it’s called Auto Guard.

In addition, like Evangeline’s golem armor, each metal chain plays a defensive role, and when the damage reaches a critical point, it is purged.

All the technology that can be used is included.

And all the functions of this armor are concentrated in the helmet, so if the wearer concentrates on the helmet, he can fully control the armor.

All armor parts assist the user’s magic calculation, and are not only excellent armor on their own, but also have extreme barrier performance –

armor that is truly suitable for a commander’s tower. [Owner of the High Tower].

‘It’s a strange naming in that the essence of this game is tower defense…’

Of course, the genre is character defense and the purpose is town defense, but the big genre category itself is tower defense… No, like this Gameplay thinking!

As I was immersed in various emotions while examining the armor, Kelly Bay held up the armor with her fingertips.

“The lightweight magic is on itself. It should feel like a rather heavy coat.”

“That’s really cool. Awesome and thank you again. Kelly Bay.”

As I congratulated her, Kelly Bay turned her gaze to me.

“I don’t need to explain, but this is the armor for you.”

“…”

Yes.

Not to mention magic calculation aids.

This extremely safety-oriented armor that shows the obsessive will to save the wearer by mobilizing all mankind’s skills and resources.

Needless to say, this armor was made for me from the start.

I never gave an order like this, and everyone on the production team didn’t even have a meeting about who this armor was made for, but it happened.

The decisive battle was near, and I didn’t have a single suit of armor as I rushed directly into the enemy camp as a commander.

Even if I ordered it to be made for someone else, Kelly Bay and the blacksmiths would have repurposed and crafted this armor for me.

“…I wish I could wear it.”

however.

“After all, I am the back support. Such high-performance armor is more suitable for warriors fighting in the vanguard.”

Honestly, I coveted it and thought it was an extremely useful armor for me, but… I decided to give it up.

“…”

I waved my hands impatiently as Kelly Bay narrowed her eyes and glared at me.

“Of course I will wear the armor too. No, I’ve been wearing it for a while!”

If anyone sees you, you’ll think you’re walking around naked, huh?

It’s because I haven’t said anything in a while, but I always wear armor when I’m out on the battlefield.

It was difficult to wear only leather armor because of my poor stamina, so I focused on light armor.

There will be several new armors with barrier functions this time, but I will choose the appropriate (lightest) one and wear it.

‘In short, it’s a waste to put this armor in the last place… that’s the problem.’

It is proper to give good armor to the vanguard standing in the forefront. For rear support, you can pick up some leftovers and wear them.

“Then who are you going to give it to?”

Kelly Bay twitched her beard in displeasure, but asked as if she respected my opinion as commander.

“Because there are people whose armor has been damaged in this battle.”

“You mean the dragon lady?”

“yes.”

You don’t have to say it back. It’s Dusk Bringer.

As the Black Dragon’s nemesis, she must continue to fight on the front lines.

It is right to yield the best armor to this dragon lady.

“I plan to give it to him and operate it.”

“Do as you please. Just keep in mind whoever wears it.”

Kelly Bay tapped the box with her fingertips and asked for trust.

“Lord of the Flies was not one of the 10 official Nightmare Legion commanders, but it was a monster of the same level… maybe even more. Of course, this equipment made from his magic core has the same level of darkness as the Nightmare Slayer or more.”

“…”

“Take care of the darkness inside. got it? did I say?”

I looked at Kelly Bay like that. Then Kelly Bay trembled.

“What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?”

“…no.”

Is it because he was chosen by a tribal god and became an avatar?

Or is it because he works day and night for Crossroads?

Or is it because he is burning with revenge for losing his son and losing his place?

Kelly Bay was haggard. His eyes were bloodshot, his cheeks were pale with loss of weight, and his untidy beard was sloppy.

I was worried about this old dwarf. As much as this old dwarf cares about me.

But I didn’t bother to say it out loud. Like he doesn’t have to say it out loud.

Instead, it had to be instructed.

“Kelly Bay, I’ll tell you in advance. Kelly Bay will not sortie for this battle.”

I quickly waved my hand at Kelly Bay, whose eyes widened in surprise.

“Of course, Kelly Bay is a tough fighter. In the last raid, I broke the jawbone of the evil dragon beautifully.”

“Then why are you trying to take me away?”

There was a hint of sadness in Kelly Bay’s voice.

I gave practical reasons instead of other excuses.

“There are too many dragon slayers to produce. And without Kelly Bay, the whole process would stop…”

“…”

Now, at Cross Road’s blacksmith’s, regardless of race or affiliation, all people engaged in production were mobilized and were concentrating their efforts on making the Dragon Slayer. .

And Kelly Bay is the general director of this project.

The moment it falls out, the whole manufacturing process stops.

He was an excellent warrior, but also an incomparable blacksmith. This is the battlefield that suits him and needs him.

It is also here that he can moderately extinguish the flames of resentment in his heart.

“…”

Kelly Bay glanced around the busy blacksmith’s interior. Even now, besides this [Owner of the High Tower], several high-grade equipment is being produced at the same time.

And, until right before the Black Dragon-Night Bringer raid, you have to constantly produce equipment.

It is perhaps more important than going to the battlefield. Kelly Bay herself was well aware of it, so it was not easy to refute.

“Father-in-law.”

Hannibal then reached out and patted Kelly Bay gently on the shoulder.

“…”

Kelly Bay looked at Hannibal silently.

The small assistant grew up to be the same height as Kelly Bay. And maybe in a few more years it will cover even more.

What did you see reflected in it?

Kellibey closed and opened her eyes and jerked back toward the fire.

“I get it. Instead, even if I don’t participate in the next three raids, I’ll accompany you when I leave to catch the last raid… isn’t it okay?”

“…”

I smiled bitterly and nodded.

“Yes, Kelly Bay.”

“All right then. You must be busy. Go now. Oh, take that with you when you go out.”

Kelly Bay pointed to the side with a weak voice.

“That too was completed this morning… It is a weapon made from the magic core and fangs of the evil dragon we caught this time.”

On the table next to it was a small box wrapped in black cloth.

“The person who will be the owner of that weapon is very thorough. Please complete it first…”

“…”

“You give it to me instead. then.”

Kelly Bay disappeared into the forge, and Hannibal bowed to me and followed the dwarf.

“…”

I took the box containing the armor and the box containing the dagger.

I pulled myself out of the smithy where people were sweating profusely. And he moved in search of the person who would become the owner of this weapon.

***

South of the city. South Gate.

No… I guess it’s a bit inappropriate to call it South Gate. Because a lot of restoration work has been done.

The southern wall, completely destroyed in the last battle, was being replaced with a new one from New Terra.

At the construction site, people were busily coming and going and shouting while assembling the wall.

Like the walls brought from New Terra, the imperial capital, the walls are already beautiful even though there is still a long way to go before completion.

“…”

In front of this construction site, Belldandi was squatting.

At the back of the wall restoration site, burnt black trees were piled up and waiting to be collected. What Belldandi was looking at was these old trees, not the castle walls.

during the last battle of the Lord of the Flies.

It was the miraculous remnant of the wooden wall that prevented the self-destruction.

The stem of the World Tree summoned by the fairy queen Skuld, who devoted her entire eternal life to it.

The people in the city were saved, and the trees burned to death. Skuld, who summoned this tree, did the same.

“…”

After losing Skuld, Belldandy always sat here in his free time.

She also worked all day to help the people in the production union, but sometimes, when an unbearable 1,000 dollars boiled inside, she came here to eat.

I approached her calling her name.

“Berdandi.”

“…Ash-sama.”

As if he had already noticed my presence, Belldandy lowered his head slightly while calling my name.

I sat down next to Belldandy. We were silent for a while.

“…”

Belldandy turned his head and looked down at the spot where Skuld died.

There, the roots of a black dead tree dug into the ground.

Skuld, who summoned the trunk of the World Tree, assimilated into the tree and was connected to its roots here.

Skuld’s body was separated and buried by Verdandi, but in front of the south gate here, there was still a tree stump dug into the ground.

I didn’t hand over clumsy consolation for nothing. Instead, he handed the wooden box in his hand to her.

“receive.”
