I Became a Level -99 Vicious Lord

Chapter 20-1

A barrage of arrows turned the ogres into hedgehogs in the blink of an eye, but thats not all.

Swish!

From the huge crossbow attached to the wheeled carriage, iron chains were shot and pierced into the ogres bodies.

Uoooooh!

Kreeeeeh!

The ogres couldnt resist the surprise attack by the Lota army.

They were already exhausted from fighting each other, so they couldnt fight against the humans attacks.

Thump! Kuwoong!

That way, the ogres fell one by one.

Keep shooting.

However, Otto persisted in long-range attacks without deploying troops.

Cool-headed.

Camille was secretly surprised.

He doesnt give an attack order even in this situation.

It was a situation where it was enough to give a charge order.

Nevertheless, Otto only ordered long-range attacks.

As if soldiers were reluctant to approach ogres

And that was the truth.

Kreeeeeeh.

Uoooooh.

Even though the ogres were about to die, Otto didnt give a charge order.

Stop shooting!

Otto gave the charge order only after all the arrows had been used up.

Charge, all troops!

Attack!

The soldiers rushed and stabbed the spears mercilessly into the ogres throats, killing them.

There was no close combat.

Only slaughter against the dying ogres

Waaaaah!

The soldiers shouted for victory.

During the past few years, when Otto was in power, the Lota army was unable to hunt even the common goblins, let alone ogres.

The fact that such an army succeeded in hunting ogres was enough to make their morale soar.

Congratulations on your victory.

Camille kneeled down to one knee beside Otto.

Its too early, weve just begun.

There were roughly 40 to 50 ogres living in the area.

To dry the seeds, they would have to repeat this operation three or four more times.

But a victory is still a victory.

Thank you.

Otto smiled.

Lets go back and rest for now.

Understood.

And so, the first ogre subjugation mission was successfully completed.

***

As Camille observed, Ottos strategy, which strictly adhered to practicality and pursued extreme efficiency, was impressive.

Otto lured female ogres to where male ogres were gathered, inciting them to fight each other, and gained the advantage only through long-range attacks, avoiding collisions.

As if he would not accept the loss of even one soldier.

In reality, even though it was the fourth ogre subjugation mission, no soldiers were killed or mortally wounded.

There were some injured, but they were only minor ones, such as sprained ankles, or scratches from tree branches while riding on rough mountain paths.

If I ever meet a commander who uses such strategies and tactics on the battlefield.

Camille was deeply impressed by Ottos tactics.

Its terrifying just to think about it.

He felt the same way when he fought Condor before, but now he had a clearer understanding.

In Camilles eyes, Otto never fought a losing battle.

Otto had already set the stage for victory even before the fight began.

So, there was no need to move recklessly, and there was no risk of loss.

All he had to do was thoroughly pressure and plunder his opponent, eventually causing them to breakdown on their own.

From the perspective of the losing side, it was like being put into a centrifuge and being thoroughly shaken out.

When did you learn such strategic tactics?

Ottos change was unfamiliar and surprising to Camille.

Is today the last day? Kukuku.

Otto seemed very pleased today.

You seem to be in a good mood.

The ogre subjugation is almost over. Then this area will become a trade route for merchants, and Ill be able to collect tolls. Hehehe.

Is money really that good?

Isnt it?

Otto asked, as if questioning whether it was worth mentioning, Do you mean to say that money is what we, poor people like us, need the most? Our finances are already tight as it is.

You are absolutely right.

The timing is good too.

Really?

Well

Otto shrugged his shoulders.

By chance, a promising merchant might become our first customer on this trade route, just in time for the delivery deadline. They have great potential for growth and we can build a good relationship with them to create a win-win situation

Well that would be great, but whether that will become a reality

Camille did not take Ottos words seriously.

He only took it as Ottos wishful thinking.

Meanwhile, the final ogre subjugation operation was progressing very smoothly.

The operation had already reached its final stages.

Ooooh!

Uuuuuuuu! Uuuu!

Female ogres fought fiercely with each other, hitting and biting each other, while males ogres lay unconscious on the ground.

All that was left was for the females to tire themselves out.

Shall we give the order to attack now?

Should we? All units, charge!

As soon as Otto gave the command, the soldiers started running towards the exhausted ogres.

But

Somethings coming!

A knight shouted, pointing towards the sky in the distance.

No way?

There was a thought that flashed through Ottos mind.

Is he already?

He raised his head and looked up at the sky.

A giant winged lion was approaching them at a terrifyingly fast speed.

The problem was that the lions head was not one, but several.

Roar!

The large head in the middle belonged to a lion, but the other two did not.

Kyaaaah!

Meeeeh!

On either side of the lions head, there was a wyverns head and a goats head.

Chimera.

A terrifying monster that could be considered ogre as a meal.

Why did come now?

Otto looked bewildered at the chimera.

***

Otto knew very well that there was a chimera living in this area.

Chimera was a random event monster that usually appeared after a characters awakening.

Of course, very rarely, it could appear at the very beginning of the game, about once in 1,000 gameplay.

Gamer Kim Do-jin had experienced such a ridiculous situation.

As soon as he started the game, the chimera appeared and turned his territory into a wasteland, swallowing Otto de Scuderia whole, leaving him with a gray screen.

But that incident happened only once in thousands of games, so even Ottos memory was vague.

Sometimes, the chimera didnt appear until the end of the game, so it didnt even occur to him.

But of all times, the chimera had to appear now

Retreat, retreat!

Otto shouted sharply.

All troops, retreat quickly! Scatter!

Otto didnt try to fight the chimera.

Why? Because the chimera was not a monster that could be defeated by ordinary soldiers shooting arrows.

Scatter! Run to the forest with dense trees! We have to run as far away as possible!

Camille also gave the order to retreat, apparently agreeing with Ottos judgment.

But Chimera seemed to have no intention of letting the fleeing soldiers go.

From Chimeras perspective, humans were a tasty snack with a soft, fleshy texture.

So there was no way Chimera would stop hunting just because the soldiers were fleeing.

Shoo!

Chimera, almost vertically, swooped down on one of the running soldiers.

Crunch!

Then it started tearing the soldier apart while still alive.

Aaaaaahhhhh!

A scream erupted from the terrified soldiers mouth.

The terror of being eaten alive, not just killed, and having their head torn apart by a lion, wyvern, and goat at the same time how terrifying that must be.

-Grit!

Otto gritted his teeth, his anger surpassing his fear, as he watched the horrific sight.

Why? He was angrier than scared.

He wanted to kill that Chimera, which was eating the soldiers so disgustingly.

That b**tard.

Without realizing it, Otto took out the item Kaiross Punishment from his inventory.

The only way to kill that Chimera in this situation was to defeat it with Kaiross Punishment.

Camille, Ill leave the back to you.

Otto looked back at Camille and left those words before flying towards the Chimera.

Ssshhhh!

A chilling aura swept over as an unknown power began to build up.

The same kind of power that had destroyed Condor, who had become a terrifying being by making a contract with a devil!

[Let me ask you one thing.]

At that moment, Kairos soul spoke to Otto.
