Chapter 445

Itai no wa Iya nanode Bgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri s.h.i.+tai to Omoimasu 445

Defense Specialization and Detection

Maple, take some rest.

Alright!

After sending Maple to the deepest part of the royal castle, Sally closed the door to her room and took a deep breath.

No matter how powerful the enemys attack was, itd be impossible to destroy the castle and defeat Maple.

There was still some time before the town became a battlefield.

The outer wall, the castle town, and the royal castleeach of them had a durability value.

At the final battle, the gate, and even the outer wall might be destroyed. Then, the town would be ransacked

she just hoped that itd be their side who did it.

It seems to have worked.

Oh, Payne.

Frederica had reported to Payne about the outcome of the previous surprise attack.

While we didnt get find out, Im sure they will figure out who did it

I think so. I heard that [Poison Dragon] was used. Only one player can produce that much poison.

Whats our next step?

Were in a tough place. Many players are resting. Battles that involve a large number of players dont happen often. Without a doubt, therell be many cases where you wont get results even if you launch an attack.

Even if they forcibly did it, itd only add to their fatigue. If the enemy didnt move, they didnt need to perform any flashy moves.

Therefore, if they were to launch an attack, it had to be done with a clear purpose.

I dont have any skills to detect enemies, either. Therefore, Ill be needing Frederica.

Frederica had also partic.i.p.ated in many battlefields here and there. Still, she didnt feel excessively tired and was in the same condition as usual. Nevertheless, she still needed time to rest.

If Dred is still here, wed be able to set up something for the night. As for now it has become difficult. Shadows skills are invaluable. How is [Maple Tree] doing?

To be honest, Id prefer it if we intercept them straight away, but Maple is weak in that field.

I dont want you to fall down here. I understand. Lets cut down on the whimsical battles as much as possible. Instead, we shall focus on restricting the enemys movement.

Thats a great help.

If it was the usual Maple, shed be able to rush into the battlefield with a self-destruct flight using [Machine G.o.d]. But without [Indomitable Guardian], the outcome of the battle was worrying.

and just like that, when the policy was set, a brilliant light illuminated the gla.s.s windows lining the corridor.

Lightning flashed in the distance.

In that place, the attributes of the monsters in the land of flames and wasteland were thunder and fire. As if following suit, magma erupted here and there, while lightning was rampant.

But.

Payne.

Yes, lets check it out.

Restlessness.

They somehow sensed it had nothing to do with the terrain.

Perhaps due to the timing, or the direction.

She couldnt be sure because she didnt have full grasp on the terrain. However, if it wasnt a natural occurrence, then it could only mean one thing

Just like how Maple could conjure a poisonous swamp, there were players in this game who could conjure lightning.

Ray, please.

Sally and Payne got on Rays back and flew towards the sky.

Even if its indeed the [Thunder Storm], why would they go out of their way to do something so flashy?

Yes, and they were quick, what on earth?

It might be a trap. In the worst case, Ill have Ray protect me. Safety is important.

I understand.

The full extent of Hinatas [Isolated Area] skill that confined Drag and Dred was also unknown. Since they didnt know who to lock in and how, it was risk mitigation to go with only two people who could take care of themselves in battle and had top-cla.s.s strength.

Both Payne and Sally had skills that could withstand a devastating blow. Therefore, they were allowed one or two blunders.

It was necessary to reduce risk as much as possible and see how it went. Depending on the situation, there might even be a large group approaching.

Theyd withdraw as soon as they felt in danger.

With that intention, the two moved in the sky towards the outer wall.
