Moonlight Sculptor: Dad is a Legend (79)

Guardian of the North Wall.

You must survive the oncoming monsters for 5 days.

‘The soldiers are a mess, the fort needs repairs, and the commander-in-chief is letting his guard down while giving the soldiers an unnecessary easygoing treatment. It’s a total mess.’

Weed held the title of captain of the fortress’ garrison.

The positive side was that we had a rough idea of ​​what was going to happen next.

If you know in advance, wouldn’t your winning percentage increase by about 20%?

‘Would you mind reading the history book about this place?’

(There are many records of the collapse of the North Wall in history books, but one soldier’s diary contains the most specific facts.)

‘Read it.’

(A large number of monsters began to swarm in. The plains were covered with monsters, and the end was nowhere in sight. The commanders screamed in surprise.)

(The monsters began to advance towards the north wall we were guarding. The commanders shouted, “This is the north wall that has never been conquered!”, “Shoot arrows, fire bullets! Kill them!”)

(However, the siege weapons and magic cannons did not work properly. The goblins who were hit by the magic cannons charged forward while bleeding. When I looked closely, I saw white rocks flying around. Someone must have sold the magic bullets in the middle.)

‘As expected, there was corruption.’

Weed hadn’t checked yet, but most of the magic bullets in the magic cannon had been replaced with defective ones.

(The monsters that were hit by arrows fell. However, more monsters came running. The commanders shouted, “Don’t worry. The monsters don’t have siege weapons!”, “The walls here are 15 meters high. They can’t climb them.”)

(The monsters climbed up the wall, stacking their bodies on top of each other. They were crushed to create a hill. But that didn’t matter anyway. As the wall collapsed, the monsters fell through the gap.)

(His comrades went to guard the walls and block the breach, but they had to make enormous sacrifices. Half of the soldiers were killed on the first day of the battle.)

This happened because the wall was not properly repaired.

This is how dangerous poor construction can be.

(All night long, screams of agony could be heard. Those who were broken somewhere were not seriously injured. Soldiers’ limbs were cut off, and blood flowed from their heads. The priests only looked after the nobles and knights, and did not properly treat their wounds. When morning came, there were many dead soldiers beside them. Many of the soldiers who were in good health ran away.)

(In the morning, Count Honwood spoke from the castle walls. He said that monsters were beyond the walls, so we should fight to the end to protect our kingdom and families. He said that reinforcements were coming, so we just had to hold out until evening. Our morale was quite high. We knew that if we broke through, everything would be over.)

(I haven’t seen Count Honwood since morning. I found out that he had suggested we fight and then ran away with his family. The knights and soldiers also started to run away, looking for a way to survive. I also threw down my weapon and ran away.)

(It seemed like the monsters would head towards the granary area, villages, and cities. Thanks to choosing the mountains, I was able to escape safely and write this article.)

‘I expected it to be a total mess, but it was a serious mess.’

The fortress, called the North Wall, had walls that were 15 meters high.

Because it is a terrain that is advantageous for blocking monsters, it has not been continuously managed.

The fortress walls were weakened and the soldiers were weakened.

‘You have one month now, but how much can you change in that time?’

Weed thought the situation was not easy.

The commander-in-chief, Count Hornwood, was an incompetent man, and the discipline and training of the soldiers were a mess.

This is an army that hasn’t fought for 100 years.

‘It’s not called S+ difficulty for nothing.’

Even a rough estimate wasn’t given.

* * *

In Royal Road, Weed has proven his supreme commanding ability by fighting in numerous wars.

Human Soldiers, Dark Elves, Orcs, Undead, Matallost Cult.

He fought a war with various races as his subordinates.

―Lead the battle to victory while minimizing damage to your allies.

―The wide battlefield view allows for incredible troop management.

-Hitting and running away is a ghost.

―When the enemy tries to counterattack… … Weed says. “I expected that!”

-I used a strategy that could save at least one more subordinate.

Even when large-scale battles broke out, there were no meaningless casualties among our troops.

I did my best to avoid killing even one of my subordinates, as it would be a huge loss of power.

―Perfect use of large monsters like Ice Dragon, King Hydra, and Black Imoogi. Deploy key forces in the right places.

-The speed at which you can hunt in a party is unprecedented.

―He is good at drawing out the strengths and weaknesses of his colleagues. And he motivates them by telling them that if they keep going a little longer, they will be able to rest.

– He makes good use of terrain features and is very quick to use tactics appropriate to the situation.

From small-scale battles to decisive battles that determine the fate of the continent.

It was during his time as the Great King of the Desert that Weed’s commanding ability was most clearly demonstrated.

―Every time you fight a war with desert tribe warriors, your power increases ㄷㄷㄷ

-If they resist after defeat, they will all be killed, and if they surrender, they will be accepted as allies.

―There was a peerless hero named Hestiger as a subordinate.

– Hestiger was a capable subordinate.

– Wasn’t it the commander’s ability that earned Hestiger’s loyalty?

There were many who were excited about Weed’s battle.

It is also a part of history how many times they have repelled the Hermes Guild from invading the Northern Continent.

―Weed’s personal abilities are certainly outstanding. This was proven by his ability to fight well as a sculptor.

-But Weed’s true fighting ability lies in leading his subordinates according to the situation.

Viewers watching Weed’s live broadcast went wild from the Caliphate Prison.

The scene where you escape from the prison cell, meet criminals, and find increasingly difficult quests.

– As expected, it’s Brother Weed. He doesn’t try to give up easily.

―I’ve grown quite a bit, so most quests are now easy.

-Isn’t it over when a tentacle monster slurps through your brain?

When Venus’s offer was rejected, the Guardian of the North Wall appeared.

Long-time fans who knew Weed from Royal Road were excited.

-This is it. It’s… … .

– I’ve been waiting for this. Is this finally the stage where we can see Weed’s war command ability?

―A perfect battle begins.

– Oh, isn’t this the moment that changes the history of Roanoke?

―Difficulty S+? This level of stage is enough for Weed to feel a little bit of excitement.

-It’s only natural that legends create legends, right?

And then the Guardian of the North Wall started and it was confirmed what kind of quest it was.

Longtime fans and viewers who got to know Weed from Roanoke were all left speechless.

-No, this is a bit;;;

―It’s a consistent mess from the soldier to the knight to the commander-in-chief?

―There’s a big crack in the fortress. Isn’t it dangerous?

―The soldiers’ expressions are so bright. Isn’t this a real horror movie?

-You said the monsters’ great offensive will begin in a month?

―The three conditions for defeat are present: the worst commander, soldiers who don’t know how to fight, and a poorly built fort.

* * *

Weed began to adapt on the north wall.

Thinking that I should find out more about the situation, I went to dinner with the soldiers, and there was oil floating on the boiled grass soup.

‘It’s completely rotten. You want me to eat something like this and go into battle?’

Playing with food is the worst thing you can do.

If this is what the soldiers were eating, then the rest was as good as it gets.

The artificial intelligence Versa asked.

(Haven’t you ever exploited users with porridge before?)

‘That’s different.’

(What’s different?)

‘The porridge was filled with joy and happiness.’

(This is incomprehensible logic.)

‘There exists a profound spiritual world that cannot be understood materially.’

Although his past actions were coming back to haunt him, Weed didn’t care.

For mental health, you must always live with a new mindset.

Moreover, a bowl of warm porridge was a happy occasion for users to enjoy together.

When you really have to fight for your life, it is excessive to give them gruel and tell them to fight until they die.

Weed began to eat with the soldiers, with his young adjutant, Itra, by his side.

“you.”

“yep?”

“How old are you?”

“I’m 17 years old.”

When I asked the adjutant’s age, he said he was only 17. The clothes he was wearing were training uniforms made of cloth.

Weed felt something strange.

“Come to think of it, all the soldiers standing guard on the wall are wearing training uniforms. What about armor?”

“It’s in the warehouse.”

“Aren’t you going to provide supplies to the soldiers?”

“Shouldn’t you wear your armor sparingly when you’re not fighting?”

After finishing his meal, Weed visited the warehouse with his adjutant, Itra.

Items such as swords, spears, and shields were rusty or poorly maintained, and only 3,000 pieces of leather armor were prepared.

“There’s not enough armor.”

“There are 20,000 on record.”

“Who is in charge?”

“The warehouse is directly managed by the Earl of Hornwood’s family.”

“… … .”

Military supplies left behind by the commander in charge of the North Wall.

Adjutant Itra asked as if he found it strange.

“Captain, it’s been a long time since the monsters came to the north wall. Even if they did, the fortress would be there to protect them, so wouldn’t a bow be enough?”

It might work in normal times, but in a fierce close combat, soldiers who aren’t even properly armored will get pushed back.

Weed could clearly see how the North Wall had collapsed without even putting up a proper fight.

“Shouldn’t we periodically subdue the monsters in the north?”

“Two years ago, a punitive force was dispatched from the Kingdom of Rebaid.”

“so?”

“Only a few people barely managed to return alive. Since then, we have not sent out any punitive forces due to loss of life and financial issues.”

“… … .”

If the punitive force had been annihilated, wouldn’t we have had to strengthen the fortress and train soldiers to guard against monsters?

‘This really has many problems in many ways.’

It was the first quest that made me feel like I was hitting a wall, but it wasn’t without hope.

Guardian of the North Wall.

As the captain of the North Wall, you have a budget of 1,328,000 gold available to you each year.

Funds needed to protect the North Wall.

Knowing what’s going on, you can use your entire year’s budget to repair your fort and improve the armament of your soldiers.

(Repairing the fort and supplying equipment to the soldiers won’t help much.)

‘I know. But I have to do what I can, one by one.’

Weed wanted to live according to the current trends.

A world where if you ask someone to ‘do something for you’, everything will be done automatically.

But the reality was that I had to suffer until my body broke.

The God of Adventure, Trinity, is watching over this quest.

Sarasvati, the goddess of art, is watching over this quest.

The god of battle, Rakkis, is watching over this quest.

Volkan, the god of fire and forges, is watching over this quest.

The ruler of the abyss is looking at you.

Weed was receiving the attention of the gods.

‘It all depends on how you spend the one month before the monsters invade.’
