142 – Unknown Object (4)

County of Rutger.

It is an influential family that has ruled the southern part of the principality for a very long time and serves as a shield to block extreme forces that have emerged from the chaotic political situation in the southern part of the continent.

Therefore, the county’s private troops are veterans who have experienced countless battles, and most of the residents are capable of being immediately deployed into battle.

Literally, the entire county can be said to be one huge army and fortress.

So the Feran resistance, who had been outnumbered and qualitatively inferior until now, first started fighting and then repeated one-sided beatings.

The problem is that the dispute goes far beyond common sense, including kidnapping, torture, rape, and massacre of civilians.

And when the Count family punishes them, they use innocent children and women as meat shields and continue to spread false rumors that the Count family is carrying out ethnic cleansing.

Of course, only the principality does not believe that, but other people who are ignorant of the situation here support the Feran resistance due to the outdated perception that the weak are good and the strong are evil.

The Empire is trying to take advantage of this and subvert the Count family by supporting the Feran resistance.

If the count falls, the duchy comes next.

It was a ploy to bring back the principality that had fallen out of imperial territory due to the War of Independence.

If the Feran resistance army pushes in from the south and the imperial army pushes in from the east, there is no way, no matter how much it is a principality.

So the Principality is providing tremendous support to the County of Rutger, and this time it has directly sent disguised Principality troops, guilds, and mercenaries.

The exit of the portal is Count Rutger Castle.

It was not a palace for nobles, but a very solid battle castle that looked like a fortress.

Renzo Montaigne was impressed when he saw the castle walls covered with all kinds of defensive magic, including crossbows and catapults.

“At that level, you’d never be able to break through without a dragon, right? It’s a Rutger after all.”

“There’s nothing you can do when dealing with crazy people.”

Other than us, we could see people pouring in through multiple portals from the other side.

Looking at their heavy-duty clothing and armament, it looks like they just captured the robbers, gave them weapons, and pushed them away, but they are all regular soldiers of the principality.

You can tell by looking at them standing in line as soon as they get off the portal.

The regular army of the principality that fights against the powerful enemy nation called the Empire is an elite force recognized even on the continent.

In particular, the cavalry was renowned, and as expected, war horses were seen coming out one after another through another dimension.

It is much larger than an ordinary horse and is fearless, so it is famous for charging without giving in even when an attack spell explodes right in front of it.

Judging by their numbers, it looks like the principality is very determined this time and will push back the Feran resistance.

And over there are guild members summoned by the principality.

It is different from the regular army in that members gather in small groups, chat and burn cigarettes.

The duchy’s regular army immediately mounted their horses and headed somewhere.

They are sent to the front line according to a plan that has already been made.

The remaining guilds and mercenaries were given missions by vassals from the count’s castle.

He was an old man with thick white hair, and regardless of the wrinkles on his face, his physique was enormous.

Moreover, it was not unusual for him to move lightly even while wearing heavy armor.

Lucene curled her mouth in admiration when she saw it.

“That old man has a really nice physique.”

“Most people in Rutger are like that.”

The vassal divided the guild by number of members to form a platoon, and appointed Lutger knights as commanders one by one.

However, our guild was not organized into platoons but was left separately, and as I expected, it seems that we are given different missions due to our composition.

“Lucas Guild?”

A vassal approached us.

“Wizard, healer, warrior, demon hunter. Right?”

“That’s right.”

From noble mtl dot com

“You will not go to the front lines but perform special missions.”

“Is this the assassination of a warlock?”

The vassal nodded to my question.

“If I just pick off that guy’s hair, it wouldn’t be a problem to drive the Ferans all the way to the desert.”

The vassal pointed to the knight standing behind him.

“Here. He will guide you.”

“Hello. My name is Croden. “I am a knight of Rutger.”

A rather young man with brown hair greeted us.

“I have heard rumors about the Lucas Guild. They have accomplished several unbelievable feats.”

“Thank you.”

“Please give us your help so that our county can drive out those crazy sand monsters this time.”

“Okay, then let’s move quickly.”

“Ah, but Healer is excluded.”

At those words, Celestine pointed to herself with a puzzled look.

“Healers, please provide rear support here at the Count’s Castle. The healers we have cannot handle treating the wounded who are being evacuated.”

“Is there a healer in the count’s castle?”

Knight Croden nodded to my question.

“There is not only a healer but also a wizard.”

“If there is a wizard, shouldn’t he be sent straight to the front lines?”

“The warlock is so strong that it would be better to take charge of evacuating the wounded and moving troops through the portal from the rear. Anyway, healer, go over there.”

Celestine waved at us.

“Then everyone, take care of yourselves!”

“Good job.”

Celestine went to the Count’s Castle with another healer to meet her, and Ornette opened a portal using the coordinates provided by Knight Credon.

The exit of the dimension gate led to the top of a mountain.

The surrounding area is a plain with some mountains.

A big battle was taking place in a small village on the plain.

On the right, a heavily armed group wearing shiny, sunlight-reflecting armor are the count’s knights and private troops, and the duchy’s reinforcements.

The rag-tag armed forces on the left are the Feran Resistance Army.

Although they are outgunned, they are not a joke as they are from the southern part of the continent.

They have a huge population because they usually have five or more children.

“It’s strange. At that level, you can just step on it and pass by.”

Lucene surveyed the battlefield and raised a question.

As Lucene said, something was a little strange.

No matter how many Feran resistance forces there are, they are a scarecrow for trained knights.

A heavily armed knight on horseback can kill a hundred scripts alone.

In addition, the principality’s regular troops have joined in, so by now the Feran resistance has already been annihilated twice.

However, the reason why the county territory is being pushed back.

“What?!”

Suddenly, a straight purple ray flew from somewhere and struck the county’s camp.

As the beam moved sideways as if sweeping the floor with a broom, a series of explosions occurred along its trajectory.

As the beam of light that swept across the camp slowly subsided, the Feran resistance fighters shouted and pushed back against the Count’s army.

“There’s something over there.”

Ornette pointed to the sky far behind the Feran resistance.

There was something like a very small dot floating there.

“Lucene. Can you see it?”

“I see. It’s a person?”

“Is it that warlock?”

“That’s right. Because of that, our county is very much on the defensive.”

Knight Croden spoke from the side.

“It hovers there motionless and shoots out beams one at a time, causing great damage.”

“Floating motionless? How much?”

“According to the observer’s report, it has never come down to the ground.”

“Hmm… I see… How often do the rays shoot out?”

“I think I use it a couple of times per battle. I’m not sure, but it probably takes some time to raise the dark magic power.”

It’s very suspicious.

There are more than one suspicious thing.

Warlocks cannot levitate.

And you can’t shoot a beam like that.

I think he’s a wizard.

But I had never heard of purple magical power.

“Ornette. Do you have purple magical power?”

“Nothing. They’re all blue.”

“Okay… Lucene, explain exactly what it looks like.”

Lucene narrowed his eyes and placed his palm over his eyebrows.

“He’s covered in a black robe, and you can’t see his face. His arms are spread out straight to the left and right.”

“Is that all?”

“Yeah. I can’t see anything else. It’s just floating without moving at all.”

He wears a black robe and floats in the air with his arms spread out to the left and right, periodically shooting out purple rays.

“Fuck you.”

Since they rarely swear, both Lucene and Ornette looked at me with surprised expressions.

“What? Is something serious?”

“That’s an object.”

“What is that?”

“A being that cannot be attacked.”

Lucene looked back at it again.

“That?”

“That’s not a person. It looks like a person.”

“Really?”

Object.

An object that users have made impossible to attack for story reasons in the game 〈 Chaotic Empire 〉.

That is one of them.

Judging by its shape, it appears to be a guardian stone statue guarding the entrance to the labyrinth Grimoire, which has not yet been unlocked.

When you get in front of it, it suddenly fires a purple laser and instantly destroys your health bar.

Why on earth is it here?

Also, why are you attacking the county?

At that moment, a strange thought occurred to me.

Has the expansion pack already been opened? ?
