00147 Cave of Screams (1) —————————- —————————–=
They were still watching. And we took the form of a phalanx. If the Ladolrovs rush in with determination, their rushing power cannot be ignored, so the key was to reduce their numbers as much as possible with a preemptive strike.
Of course, if it’s just me and Vivien, a highly skilled player, we can easily beat LadolRof. No, the reality is that even if only one of the three steps up, it is not even a matter of exercise after the meal. But it was impossible to do this forever. So, I wasn’t going to give much help except to those who came my way. Now, I plan to make the children aware of their own position, experience injuries, and feel the consequences of failing to carry out their duties.
“───. ───. ───.”
“───. ───. ───.”
You can hear Jeong Ha-yeon and Shin Sang-yong chanting a spell. Their number seemed to be over thirty. Among them, there are about twenty who respond quickly to external intrusions. If 20 of them raise their horns and attack at once, the area the kids are in charge of will definitely be breached. How much can Jeong Ha-yeon and Shin Sang-yong’s preemptive strike reduce the number? It was then.
“Phew! Phew! “Phew!”
“Purring! Purr! Purr!”
Most monsters in the Hole Plain are intelligent. In particular, there are quite a few people who are sensitive to the flow of mana. Therefore, when wizards increase their magical power to perform magic, they react very sensitively. Sure enough, the LadolRofs seemed to feel uneasy about the flow of mana that was gradually gathering among her companions, and the LadolRofs tilted their heads forward, making harsh snorting and breathing noises.
One or two of them might have done that, but with over twenty of them doing the same thing at once, the intention was clear enough. Soon, the screams of an unusually large guy in front signaled a signal and they started running toward us all at once.
Doo doo doo! Doo doo doo!
Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump!
The sound of footsteps pounding the earth seemed to accelerate even further, and the sound was getting shorter by the minute. It seemed as if medieval knights on horses were running at once, carrying heavy lances. I also waved my sword back and forth to estimate the defense range, and then quickly targeted the three birds running ahead. And, in a low voice, he warned his companions.
“coming. The first line of guys destroys the camp by rushing, and the second line mainly uses the tactic of trampling with strong leg strength. Not only will you not be pushed out by the first line, but if you can push back, you can easily fight.”
It was about half the distance between us. As if all orders had been completed, loud exhaling sounds were heard from behind. In the beginning, they did not form a close group, but rather spread out a certain distance, so the wizards had enough time to cast spells. Still, it was a moment where I wanted to fire a spell quickly because their speed was getting faster and faster.
“Dig In The Ground!”
As if they were in sync, Shin Sang-yong, not Jeong Ha-yeon, chanted the spell as the first hitter. It was surprising that it wasn’t a direct attack spell, but since I knew that the two of them enjoyed using linked magic, I decided to wait and see. And Dig In The Ground used against LadolRof could be seen as a very effective choice.
An invisible energy passed by in front of the ground where they were running. At that moment, “poof.” I heard the sound of the ground being broken, and at the same time, I saw a long hole being created. Since I haven’t learned how to apply magic circuits, I can’t expect to dig holes in multiple places at the same time. Instead, they dug a long trap in an exquisite location so that they could not react.
It wasn’t very deep, but it was at least deep enough for their feet to get caught. Above all, I was able to give it a high score for not firing magic at random, but for taking advantage of the opportunity to achieve maximum efficiency. And, the magical results came out right away.
“Fuhihing!” Puhihihing!”
“Pookrock! “Pukkrak!”
Among the Ladolrovs who were running furiously in the front row, four or five fell forward all at once, and the others also stumbled greatly. Because of this, those who were running at a very small distance had no choice but to slow down, and chaos broke out all at once. And immediately, Jeong Ha-yeon’s clear voice rang through the air, as if she was aiming for this confusion.
“Ice Spear! “Rapid Fire!”
Yesterday, the vagabond wizard used the flame spear, but Hayeon used the ice spear as she is good at water-type magic. I slowly counted the number of windows being created and smiled happily to myself. Perhaps due to the influence of her special ability
The Ladolrovs’ screams of pain were heard, but Jeong Ha-yeon’s magic was not over yet. The standard for applying magic circuits was originally to include one item per spell. This is because it is more difficult than basic magic, so it is very difficult to use two at once. However, there was still a secret weapon, Memorize. As a white light appeared from the Necklace of Glory around her neck, she opened her mouth again and cast her spell.
“Broken!”
Cheer up! Cheer up! Cheer up! Cheer up! Cheer up! Cheer up!
The Broken spell was activated, and the ice spears deeply embedded in their bodies were shattered at once. The ice that was on the outside soon turned into fragments, which bounced around loudly and swept away the surrounding enemies like a storm. And judging by the way some of them twisted their bodies and threw their heads down, the spears embedded inside were probably broken into small pieces, turning the inside into mud.
“… sorry. “It’s not as powerful as I expected.”
“no. “This is enough.”
I shook my head as I saw Jeong Ha-yeon apologizing in a sullen voice. The six animals, each with a spear stuck in it, perished, and those around them began to run towards us again, staggering their bodies. Although we couldn’t reduce them by half, we definitely killed their charge and inflicted numerous injuries. It’s true that it didn’t meet my expectations, but I wasn’t at the point where I felt sorry. (I didn’t have high expectations in the first place.)
At that time, a strange flow of mana began to leisurely draw symbols next to me. When I saw a magic circle being drawn with a cloud of smoke, I was able to remember the one person I had forgotten after being sold to Jeong Ha-yeon. There was still one more wizard user on our side. He is also a much better alchemist than the previous two wizards.
“come! Acacia! “Queen of Pain, who rules the 29th Legion!”
As soon as I heard Vivien’s sonorous voice, I saw black flowers blooming from the hole that Shin Sang-yong had dug. The flower, which bloomed very quickly, soon released its stems and covered the nearby LadolRof. Vivian snapped his fingers smartly after checking out the sight.
Perfect!
Fu shoot! Fu shoot! Fu shoot!
““““““Fuhihihihihihihi!””””””
The sharp thorns extending from the stem pierced the bodies of the Ladolrovs they were embracing without mercy. Those in the area of influence of the stem raised their necks and let out a pitiful scream, but were immediately buried by the thorns that attacked them again. In this way, six animals were once again sacrificed to the thorns. Those who were out of range or quickly jumped upwards to avoid them survived, but thanks to the collaboration of the three wizards, 12 of them were harpooned before they even arrived. When Vivien turned her head slightly, she drew a V and smiled. I sighed and clicked my tongue. Vivian immediately frowned and grumbled at my reaction.
The big guy who first screamed was still alive. Although he was wounded in several places, his hostility toward us seemed undiminished. It lowered its four-horned head again and started running towards us. As if enraged by the pointless death of their compatriots, the surviving ones followed the lead and raised their horns.
The wizards had had enough. Now it was the turn of the melee classes to step forward. As the number had decreased significantly, I decided to slightly change the formation and opened my mouth.
“Anhyeon! Yujeong Lee! Forward deployment!”
At my words, Anhyeon and Yujeong came out left and right. Go Yeon-ju was not given any specific action instructions. It was enough for her to protect the wizards and priests and provide occasional support from behind the scenes.
Soon, LadolRof, who was in the lead, rushed towards me, letting out a howling shout. The horn, shining sharply in the sunlight, was thrust forward, and I pulled back and raised the vertical sword upward. At the same time as the feeling of something being caught on the blade, pieces of horn cut in half were flying in the air. In the aftermath, the guy’s head lifted up, and I hit him hard on the chin with a kick.
A heavy shock hit his feet, and the monster’s neck bent flexibly like a whip and took a couple of steps back. Taking advantage of that opportunity, Ahn Hyeon and Lee Yu-jeong each shouted in unison and aimed for the flanks.
Sigh! wickedness!
An Hyun’s spear pierced his torso, and Yu Jeong sharply cut the middle part of his right leg. However, perhaps due to lack of strength, Yujeong’s katana was unable to completely cut off the leg and stopped midway. And while she was standing still, another monster that was following her rushed towards her as if it was going to attack her.
“Yah!”
However, Yujeong was not just playing around all this time. He reversed his right hand holding the studded katana and pulled his body towards me. Using the power of his tilted body weight, he cut his leg even deeper, and with his left hand, he lifted the scuttlep and swung it vigorously at the incoming attacker.
“Phewheung!”
“Kyaaa!”
As if he couldn’t avoid a complete collision, Yujeong’s body shook violently and seemed to fall. However, he was barely able to hold on using the katana he held in his right hand as support, and the one who rushed at him hit him squarely on the head, causing him to scream in pain.
At first glance, the oil well was not in good condition. His left arm was bent backwards so much that it looked brave as he was holding the skulep. But I decided not to say anything. At least it was better than avoiding it. And seeing as he didn’t mess up his posture, I could see that he had expected it.
“Cure!”
As if Ansol had been preparing in advance, he immediately chanted a sacred spell toward Yujeong’s arm. Her warm white light shined on Yujeong’s left arm, and she turned her recovered left arm once or twice before raising her body again.
Ahn Hyeon was performing better than expected. He was in charge of as many as three horses, and although he seemed to be constantly being pushed back, he did not back down and held on well. Perhaps because he had clearly mastered his martial arts skills, he was dodging their horns by twisting his body around and swinging his heavy spear like a windmill to beat them. He was sometimes hit by kicks coming from square angles, but he gritted his teeth and held on, performing his role as a tank.
“Shackles!”
“Shield!”
“Wind Cutter!”
Priests and wizards once again provided support, and the battle began to become much easier. I also opened my mouth wide and lightly hit the face of the guy who was attacking me, then focused my attack on the guy who seemed to be the leader. Yujeong’s right leg was properly tied so that he could not move freely, and thanks to this, he was able to cut off his head without any pressure.
As time passed, the number of LadolRofs lying down on the ground began to increase. After I cut off the captain’s head, their morale was dropping rapidly. Yujeong began to rampage even more with the support of Go Yeon-ju and Vivian, and An Hyun was able to kill all three who were in charge of An Sol and Jeong Ha-yeon’s backup.
thud!
On the neck of the last remaining monster, Yoo-jeong crossed the skurepp and the dagger and slashed, then turned around. The left side of her jacket and shirt were slightly torn, but there did not appear to be any major injuries. And I had no complaints about my first close-quarters battle with the kids. When I said I wasn’t dissatisfied, it meant that I followed the standards I thought of.
The kids, who were less than 6 months old, did not back down against a horde of monsters of their own level. Even though the magicians did well in the beginning and Go Yeon-ju and I served as subs, it was significant that they confidently fulfilled their role as soloists. They all looked at me quietly, probably feeling a little awkward as they felt it for the first time.
But I had no intention of giving praise here. I was still hungry, and the kids were growing up so I needed to catch them like bugs someday. So, I looked ahead with indifferent eyes.
The cubs and the guys who were protecting them were suddenly gone. The moment all the combatants were wiped out, they quickly fled. Looking at my companions hesitating, I shook my head with a calm face.
“We don’t chase those who run away. It’s hard to catch, and there’s no need to catch it. Please quickly treat the wounded with potions and then reorganize your battle lines. “We will resume the march in three minutes.”
“””yes.”””
After hearing a voice that seemed a little weak, I calmly turned around. Go Yeon-ju continued to shed a light smile, wondering what was so enjoyable.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
hello. This is Ro Yujin.
The incident has been resolved, and now all that remains is to enter the Cave of Screams. And in the middle, we checked the children’s combat power through a battle with the Radolovs. I am so touched that the children who were initially overwhelmed by a jet-black scorpion have grown so much. ㅜ.ㅠ
Well then, have a nice night tonight. I will also leave now. (__)
