Insanely-Talented Player

Episode 14

It was literally a procession of caravans crossing the desert.

Camels, fully loaded luggage, and merchants walking along with them. Among them, what caught Yooseong's sight was a carriage pulled by several desert horses

.

Even at first glance, I could see that it was carrying something unusual.

I didn't realize it at dawn, but the number of armed troops accompanying them was greater than Yooseong had imagined. There were also many knights armed with armor and wearing surcoats.

‘Looking again, they are better armed than I thought. Why are they trying so desperately to protect themselves?'

What on earth were they doing when they were attacked by monsters such as desert demons in the first place?

“The drivers are with us.”

“Haha, yes. Just like the Apostle of Light. Likewise, they are brave warriors who serve the God of Light. ”

“What on earth did such brave warriors do last night? “Did you sleep well?”

“The drivers consider escorting the product more important than anything else...

‘Even in that situation, the carriage*... No, they didn't leave the area around the product?'

Hearing those words, Yoosung tilted his head and laughed again.

At the same time, the knights around the carriage looked towards the shooting star as if threatening. A blood-red cross engraved on a pure white surcoat. It's the same as the ‘golden fanaticism' that Yoosung is wearing.

The surcoat itself is a clothing style that can be said to be a symbol of a knight, so even the engraved cross style was the same, something that could not be overlooked. Even though the colors are different between blood red and gold.

Above all, Yooseong did not miss the power of portraits that lingered within their bodies.

It was Aura Heart.

“Where do these knights belong?”

“I am a member of the Order of Knights of the Blood Cross.”

Having an auror means having mana, and unlike the 5th tier top who fought the sword lord before, it means that each of them is a strong person with quite a bit of skill. And what exactly is the product that so many knights gather together to protect, and that even the so-called ‘Apostle of Light’ descends to protect it?

“Is there a golden calf hidden in that carriage?”

“Haha, well...

As he said that, one of the merchants blurted out his words. At that moment, one of the knights guarding the carriage opened his mouth politely but as if warning.

“Apostle of Light, please don’t pay attention to this carriage and focus on the work God has given you.”

“Oh, saying that makes me want to see you more...

Yoosung shrugged his shoulders and answered. However, Yoosung's expression froze at the sight he felt right after.

It was a living.

“Everyone bow your heads!”

Huh!

An arrow flew out in sync with the sound of the shooting star and pierced the uvula of the person standing right next to it.

“Kukkuk keuk!”

As it was, blood poured out. Starting with one shot, arrows started flying from all over again.

“It’s an attack by pagans!”

“How could these evil pagans enter the territory of this sacred kingdom...!”

Danghom rang out everywhere, and the knights gathered around the carriage and took a defensive stance. The powerful force of the aurors exploded from their bodies, and they began to gather in formation as if they were forming large shields.

“Never hand over your goods to infidels!”

“Stay in formation and deploy the Auror Shield!”

Leaving behind the shouts that echoed from all over, I focused my attention on the presence of Yooseong in the area. The enemy is not one in number. And it was moving very systematically and quickly. There is no doubt that it is an attack by guerrilla troops.

Sure enough, there were archers dressed in robes riding horseback horses.

Then, the archers all drove the horsemen, showered arrows, turned their backs, and pulled the bowstrings again.

It is a hit and run swarm tactic that combines bow and mobility.

In comparison, I saw the Blood Cross Order of monks guarding the carriage. They also ride on war horses and are armed with heavy armor. It would not be impossible to pursue them with a cavalry charge.

However, judging from the archer cavalry's mobility, it did not seem like they would be captured easily, and above all, there was no way they could escape from around the golden calf that they cherished so much.

‘They say they will protect their products no matter how much they sacrifice.'

That's why my curiosity was even more intense. But it wasn't something to think about right now.

After thinking, Yoosung stretched out his arms. Whatever it was, Yoosung had a duty to fight for the camp he was standing on. Because that's the Top's way.

Once again, the pagan archers scattered and gathered together, and Yooseong did not miss the opportunity.

Taang!

Just before their arrows reached the range, projectiles of cold air scattered from Yooseong's fingertips.

A desert horse was knocked down by the scattered bullets, and the archer cavalry fell from its horse. Immediately, the meteor struck the ground, creating a frost sword.

fault!

A sandstorm swept under his feet, and Yooseong's body rushed like a flash of light. The distance narrowed in an instant, and the hilt of the sword was turned back toward the archer who had fallen on the ground.

The fallen ‘heathen' was a man with bronze skin. At the same time, Yooseong’s movements stopped for a moment when he saw that scene.

The pointed ears sticking out from under the hood were evidence of a desert elf.

Huh!

At the same time as Yooseong hesitated, the pagan archers who had already disappeared fired a barrage of arrows. Yooseong did not panic and raised an ice shield using his cold magic power.

A shield is also a type of weapon.

Taang!

The arrows bounced aimlessly in front of the ice shield, but that was right after that.

.......

A single arrow flew with unparalleled destructive power and lethality. It had an absurd speed and destructive power, as if it were a sniper rifle.

The ice shield was broken through without any help. The arrow hit straight at the shooting star. no. I was about to get hit. However, there was a shadow protruding from beneath Yooseong's feet and blocking his path. It was black.

The arrow melted into the flesh and bones of the shadow beast and that was it. As if being swallowed by a black hole whose bottom is unknown.

‘Even the Auror Arrow... Still, the level of this world is a bit high.'

After seeing that blow, Yooseong held his breath.

“Die, you heretic bastard...”

At the same time, the desert elf who had fallen to the ground saw the curve of his waist and rushed towards him. It was a blow that lacked any sharpness due to the impact of falling from a horse.

Kaang

Meteor easily deflected the curved sword, snatched the desert elf, and used it as a shield. For a moment, there was commotion in the movements of the scattered archers.

“If you ask me, ‘What’s in that carriage

?’”

“How dare this evil infidel try to play a trick on us!”

“It’s so strange. Even my friends over there say they’re evil heretics. “Can’t these equally evil heretics get along better?”

“Don’t worry about me, just pull the bowstring!”

Pow!

The captured elf shouted and arrows flew. However, in the end, it was the desert elves' responsibility, not the meteor's, to become the beehive

.

It should have been so.

At the same time, the cold magic swirled again under Yooseong's feet and began to forge the frost sergeants once again.

An ice shield was placed over the shield, and the captured elf shouted in panic.

“Even if you capture me alive, you guys have nothing to gain!”

“Oh, don’t worry, just answer what’s in the carriage. “I have to listen to that to decide which side I’m on.”

“what...?”

“Do you think you’re doing this because it’s still difficult for me to wipe you out?”

Saying that, Yoosung swung his arm again. The shield of cold erected in the area exploded, and sharply forged razor blades appeared on each piece of ice.

Even though they were quite far away, ice fragments attacked the archers. No one could escape.

But that was right then.

The pieces of ice that were supposed to engulf and tear apart the desert elf archers stopped right in front of their noses. Just as a person with telekinesis fixes bullets in the air at once.

“...

《Eogomsul》

(omitted)

. Steel synergy enhancement effect: Increases the range of swords that can grant flame.

Strictly speaking, they were pieces of ice that could not be considered swords, but to Yoosung, who had steel synergy, they were ‘cold carving knives' that could be moved freely, one by one. It was just that.

He desperately concentrated his consciousness and stopped all the pieces of cold air. However, the spirit still dwelling there was waiting for Yoo Seong’s command.

With a single wave of his hand, he could annihilate all the archers here, or he could not.

An overwhelming fear, bordering on despair, engulfed the entire area.

“You get the idea now, right? “If you lift a single finger here, what will happen to all your comrades?”

“My friend...

The elf who was captured saw that and finally muttered. It was a voice full of despair, as if resigned.

“I ask again, what are the ‘goods’ on the wagon?”

“How dare you treat a Syrian princess as a prize…

“Aha.”

Only then did Yooseong understand the situation and nodded.

“The pagans over there kidnapped the princess of the pagans over here.”

At the same time, Yooseong pushed the back of the desert elf he was holding and said.

“Go back and tell it. “I will give you all special help, so please step down.”

“That can’t be possible...

“Wouldn’t it be better to stay alive and try for another opportunity rather than be left here like this?”

Thousands of carving knives made of ice were stationary in the air. Exactly in front of the elves' noses. And it wasn't difficult to bring down the blades with just a single wave of the hand.

However, the ice sculpture did not move any further, and when the escaped elf complained, the archers began to turn their noses in unison.

I just turned my head.

“Why did you let the heretics live?”

Just then, a knight guarding the carriage bellowed. Yoosung shrugged his shoulders and answered.

“Move over, I have something to look at for a moment.”

“You can’t do that, even if you are an apostle of light!”

“How dare you...!”

— Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The driver tried to shout something, but Black Man was next to Yooseong and shouted as if threatening him. There was confusion among the knights at that sight, and Yoosung crossed them without heeding anything.

They crossed between the drivers, lifted the velvet awning of the carriage, and tore off the body.

What was riding in the carriage was not a commodity, but a living creature. However, it was not a human being.

Black hair and bronze skin as black as the night sky. The fragile limbs and neck are chained.

It wasn't that difficult to realize that she was their princess, whom the desert elf had mentioned just moments before.

“Shall I save you?”

“...Do you think this body would want the sympathy of an infidel?”

asked Yooseong, and the elf princess answered venomously. Confusion began to spread among the knights around them. The goal was to

conquer the 5th tier tower . Escort of the object and transport of goods. However, the actions of the meteor were by no means those of the person attacking the tower. That

was right then.

[“Do not forget your duty. Fulfill the duty of the light!”]

[The Lord of Light is the player's leader. Warning about behavior.]

“Hmm, since you say that, I can’t help it.”

However, regardless of the monarch's warning or the tower's goal, Yooseong broke the chains that bound her.

[The hidden achievement ‘Rescue the Princess' has been achieved! Achievement score 300,000? obtained!]

[The tower's strategy goal has been updated!]

[The tower's tier has been increased from Tier 5 to Tier 5 Hard!]

At the same time, system messages are flooding in. It blocked Yooseong’s view.

[“You will pay for defying the Light!”]

[One of the Tower's forces has declared its hostility towards you.]

[The Watchers of Light are those who serve the Lord of Light and enforce his will. . They are watching you from wherever there is light, and they are never happy to see their light extinguished or fading.]

At the same time, heavenly light swirled in the sky, and golden angels began to descend.

Like the ‘Shadow Council', the tower One of the forces that exist in the world of and a force loyal to the Lord of Light.

Along with the Blood Cross Knights who are now unfolding their auras and strengthening their battle stance, an opponent suitable for Tier 5 Hard has finally appeared there. Nevertheless

, Nothing changed. It wasn't for the sake of justice or belief. As always, moving the shooting star

was the only criterion.

Whichever reward was better.
