Episode 276 – Siege Net (6)

“…Hurry up and cover it. “There is nothing good to see.”

Thran, who was in charge of the recovery, confirmed Mera’s body. As Serenian had expected, the corpse, which had become unrecognizable, was in a state that could never be pleasant to look at, regardless of one’s feelings.

“I’m glad there doesn’t seem to be any major damage.”

“I can’t believe Merah was treated like this.”

He then checked Lu Li’s condition. Ruri, who had taken refuge in the back after being rescued by Ren, muttered in disbelief even as Thran released her restraints.

The Merah that Ruri knew was very strong. Because she was not the type of person to die easily. No matter how unprepared she was, it was a moment that proved how strong the salvo from Ren’s large-diameter cannon was, which destroyed such a person in one blow.

“The same goes for the imperial airships that they developed in their own way. Would it be easy to take on that huge airship alone? We are no longer in an era where individual force can change the battlefield. It’s the same for us too. “If Mera had attacked us with the kingdom’s army instead of alone, Ren’s power would have been dispersed, so would we have been able to win?”

However, Sran assessed that it was quite possible. He judged that the era of strong men who were called heroes, having swept the battlefield with exceptional strength compared to others, was slowly coming to an end.

In that case, it is ultimately the roles of each member that increase in importance. Victory can only be achieved if the soldiers stay in their positions and fight.

‘But we are preparing for that too.’

In that respect, he was confident of victory. He decided that the power they have comes from a place where the abilities of many are displayed, not a battlefield where one or two heroes decide.

“Did you catch all the wizards?”

“We succeeded in capturing the majority. But…It looks like there are some who missed it. According to the testimony, they turned back and fled the moment Heinz, the king of the humans, stepped forward.”

After handing Ruri over to the other elves for treatment, Thran then asked about the people he had to capture. He then reported that the elf who was reporting to him was slightly embarrassed and had missed some.

The targets they wanted to catch were the wizards who developed the wave sealing technique for elves, but Regnor, the leader of the wizards, escaped before the battle was over.

“It doesn’t matter. This is a major forest. It is our land, and it is where our eyes reach. “Do you think you can escape?”

Sran laughed at Regnor. No matter how much I studied mysterious magic, I was confident that I could catch it once I got deep into the forest.

“…As expected, it is running fast to go west, so if you start chasing it now, you will be able to track it. “I didn’t get very far.”

The Grand Elder, a high elf from the central city of Deneb, who heard this news using communication magic through wizards located in the middle, had already identified the location of those currently fleeing through the World Tree that governs the Great Forest.

“Huh, huh…”

“Don’t slow down! “You never know when they might come out!”

The dense forest with tall trees became a space that gnawed at the nerves of those being chased.

Regner, who led a small army and began to run away like crazy, did his best to escape the forest.

‘We must tell this truth quickly!’

Regner escaped just before Heinz was killed by Serenian. They felt fear when they saw the elves instantly overcome the magic they had developed, firing bullets and cannons and destroying golems and soldiers.

As a wizard, the elves he saw looked as if they were performing evil magic.

“Never miss it. “I have to take it to headquarters.”

“Oh, I know.”

He encouraged his subordinates running next to him. The subordinate, who was holding something long wrapped in cloth in his arms, nodded his head with a pale face.

It escaped from the cloth, reflecting the sunlight coming through the dense leaves, making the gun barrel sparkle.

“The border line is just a short distance away. “As long as we get out of the forest, we’ll be able to do something!”

They began to run away and ran all night. I walked, saving time to eat. If it had been a rough forest road, they would probably have spread before they could get halfway, but fortunately, the wide road that was inevitably created as the 100,000-strong army advanced helped them escape.

“Oh, the elves are chasing you!”

However, contrary to their wishes, the elves caught up with them before they could escape the forest.

The elf guerrillas riding fairy ants chased them at high speed and raised their bows. If elves can use bows, there is no reason for elves to use guns.

“Damn it! Fight!”

The wizards who were fleeing also chose to fight to the death. Although they were exhausted, they were able to fight the chase team if they had the strength to do so.

“Set it on fire!”

They were holding out as a group and setting up fire shields, but they started setting fires here and there in the forest with the thought that this was the end of the world. The elves, who were angry at the sight, had no choice but to retreat and focus on putting out the fire that had begun to spread.

“Chief, should we let those bastards go like this!? “These are the people who set fires indiscriminately to survive!”

“Don’t worry. “Soon they won’t even be able to resist.”

The elves who were unable to chase them because they had to urgently put out the fire became angry, but the leader who led the elves chuckled.

As they said, what they believed was running through the forest on this highway.

“He’s coming over there. We follow.”

Soon what the leader said passed in front of them. Even those who had already heard of it were so shocked that they were speechless when they saw it in person for the first time.

“Hey, what is that?”

“It’s a monster!”

But the surprise of the elves was even greater as I had only heard of them through rumors.

Regner, who saw the pitch-black gigantic thing running at incredible speed, crushing the valley with flowing water and the rough and uneven ground with its huge wheels, was astonished and even lost the spirit to recite the spell.

‘You haven’t lost your taste, have you?’

I was a little worried when they gave me the micro drone, but when they actually disassembled the battle bot and took it to the outside world, I became a little worried.

From their perspective, those small toys that occupy a corner of a flower pot may look like huge trucks and airplanes, but toys are just toys.

I wanted them to not rely too much on them being a kind of finished product.

[But it looks like things worked out well]

“I think I’ve used almost every possible move, right? “I have released all the things I originally intended to use in a real emergency, but I must win.”

The wind spirit who was looking down at the flower pots with me said when he saw the happy residents. There was no need to expand the field of view to hear their voices.

In the end, we won the war against the Kingdom of Delos.

It was a victory created by drawing on all the strength I had accumulated through my intervention. According to Serenian’s words, there is really only one last step left.

And the end will be harder than any war we have faced so far.

“I know everyone is happy, but it’s better not to get too caught up in it. Because we have our mission.”

When I expanded my view and listened to their story in more detail, I saw that Elise was scolding the executives of Eden who were happy.

What he was saying was that although what happens in the outside world is important, what happens in the world inside the flower pot is also important.

I am talking about the fight that is taking place in the flower pot where the fortress is located. Because I continue to open a kind of hunting ground there for their growth.

[Unknown crack occurs]

“Huh?”

But then. Something appeared in a flower pot that I didn’t open.

This happened in the most recently colonized, desert-terrain flowerpot where a desert clan lives.

“This is ridiculous! It’s a crack in the demon world…!”

“Hurry up and tell us!”

I quickly turned on the lantern and looked at the flower pot that was keeping it hot. As I listened to the story, it seemed like something strange happened in a dungeon near an oasis where they were building a village with clay bricks and cloth.

‘What’s going on?’

When the residents began to quickly arm themselves, I was so surprised that I hurriedly operated the drone and sent it inside the dungeon. In a dark space, the desert clan warriors were seen catching their breath inside the dungeon that they had been using as a warehouse after clearing out the enemies inside.

“—, —.”

In the soundless screen, they were standing in their seats with nervous faces as they saw something on the wall.

It’s a gateway that looks very similar to the gateway I’ve seen where orcs come out of.

In front of the gate, several pale-skinned monsters who appeared to have just been killed were lying down and bleeding.

[This is an underground goblin, one of the demons of the demon world. Even though they lack average military strength, they are vicious and clever.]

“What?”

The wind spirit recognized them and told me the information. As expected, they were from the demon world.

“Why are they here? “Is this just a coincidence?”

[It could be a coincidence. However, even based on the information we currently know, there is a possibility that it is not a coincidence. Because it is clear that some of the demonic forces have already joined hands with our enemies]

War is a law that does not discriminate between means and methods.

I sighed at the possibilities pointed out by the wind spirit and watched the gateway slowly disappear as if the search had ended.
