Moonlight Sculptor: Dad is a Legend (91)
“Loyalty!”
“During work, monsters are not visible.”
It was late at night.
Soldiers salute Weed as he patrols the North Wall.
Although they are soldiers of the Kingdom of Rebaid, they have received little practical training, so they have been given modern education.
‘Do it right.’
‘Listen to the voice. Is this all you can say?’
‘Are there any soldiers still showing their teeth?’
‘Get ready to squat down.’
‘I don’t look at the person next to me.’
‘This assistant can turn you into a demon servant depending on your actions.’
‘Do you have a girlfriend?’
After three days of sleepless nights and military training, they were deployed to battle in the northern plains.
Not only were the soldiers trained through actual combat, but they also used splitting swords here.
“1st Battalion, 3rd Battalion is currently clearing 4 dungeons, is this all you can do?”
“The 6th Battalion has the worst combat skills.”
He made soldiers compete with each other and achieved short-term results.
In a real fight against monsters, if you show immaturity, you will be seriously injured or die, so you have no choice but to follow orders.
‘There’s a rumor that the captain eats brains.’
‘really?’
‘They say that all people who don’t listen have lost their brains.’
‘oh my god.’
Fear gripped the North Wall and the Honwood Estate as Weed took responsibility for the tentacle monsters’ actions.
It is said that reign by fear cannot last long, but it was the most effective in the short term.
Because no one wants to lose their brain by saying bad things to Weed.
Moreover… … .
“The captain ordered all these preparations because he thought monsters would come, and they really did come?”
“Could we have stopped it if we were normal?”
“I could never have done that. We would have all died.”
All funds from the Earldom of Honwood were used and workers were mobilized to repair the north wall.
All the work done to train the soldiers was evaluated as foresight in preparation for the future.
Weed’s fame and influence spread throughout the entire North Wall, and the battle experience on the second day was particularly special.
It was surprising but understandable that Weed had fallen alone beyond the north wall.
They say that truly great knights even commit crazy acts like charging into enemy lines.
But Weed was more than that.
“Captain!”
Weed’s right shoulder was injured by a magic bullet fired by the goblins, and Behid, riding a demon, seized the opportunity and attacked from all sides.
“The captain is in danger.”
“Ah, ah. You shouldn’t die in a place like that.”
As the soldiers on the north wall watched, Weed overcame the crisis with his flying sword, amazing movements, and his own swordsmanship.
The wound on the shoulder heals visibly and quickly.
Up until now, it was surprising, but it could have been a completely possible sight.
Weed had observed the savage warriors’ tendency to swarm when they showed weakness and began to take advantage of the situation.
“Eww!”
He remained indifferent even when his shoulder was pierced, but screamed when a small wound grazed his thigh.
-Now is the time!
-Kill the enemy leader!
The barbarian warriors Behids swarmed like a swarm of bees.
“Swords flurry.”
Weed hunted the approaching Behids while scattering dozens of swords. And 30 seconds later, his side was cut by a large sword swung by a lizardman.
“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
Even the barbarian warrior Behid, who was storming the walls from afar, reacted to the screams of pain so intense.
He turned around while riding the Demon Crawler.
-Now is the time!
-Starting with the enemy leader.
The Behids rushed in on crawlers, but Weed used his swordsmanship to defeat them.
The wounded side quickly healed.
“Ack! Ow! Euaaaah!”
Weed continued to scream and gather the behids to hunt them down.
-Now!
-let’s go.
-Starting with the enemy leader!
-If you kill that guy, you win this battle.
-Is it now?
Although they were the same people who were being hit in the same way over and over again, Weed’s screams and acting skills were breathtaking.
They intentionally tear off foreheads and cut off arms to force the Behids to attack.
Troll-like regenerative powers that allow them to endure pain.
“The captain of the guard served as the best bait on the continent.”
“Outside the walls, it can be really dangerous.”
“I’ve never seen such a joke, but thanks to it, we didn’t die.”
The soldiers on the north wall were both awed and amazed by Weed’s preparations, and looked up to his fighting prowess, but on the other hand, they thought he was crazy.

Weed felt regret after fighting on the second day.
‘If I had a higher level, I could have been more active.’
If you were over level 100, you would have guarded the north wall while unleashing area-of-effect skills on the monsters that were rushing in.
I’ve done a lot of hunting using swordsmanship, sword skills, and another sword, but I still feel like I need higher level and wide-area combat skills.
‘It’s good to give life to sculptures, but… … I guess I can’t ignore the penalty.’
It is better to increase the number of sculpture creatures to protect the north wall.
It’s good for increasing overall power, but it’s a shame that growth slows down.
‘There must be a limit to how many fragments of life can be increased like this.’
When full-scale self-growth began, it was necessary to seal the life-giving skill into the sculpture.
As the art stat decreases by 10, you can no longer mass-produce powerful sculptured lifeforms.
‘This time, since we’re going to fight a war, the more fragmented lifeforms the better, but from now on, I have to prioritize my own growth.’
Weed also decided to give life to the Mark 3, a combat-oriented lifeform created by artificial intelligence.
“Bringing life to sculpture.”
A spider-like monster.
The spider’s special traits include its ability to move stealthily, as well as using webs to bind enemies, slow their movements, and paralyze them.
Of course, it is not very useful in general fields, but you can make closed places like dungeons or caves your own area.
-Kiruk.
“I look forward to working with you in the future.”
-Kirruk!
A spider monster with large, gleaming eyes.
The snout was sharp and pointed, designed to be very good at eating meat.
Spiders do not speak, and can even use telepathy.
The spider wants to eat people.
The spider wants to eat a person’s head.
If a spider is alive, it will want to eat anything.
It is said that spiders find it delicious to eat living flesh.
The spider wants to catch people and eat them sparingly.
Spiders have a tendency to enjoy human flesh.
Mark 4, which has the characteristics of an aquatic monster, Mark 5, which is a flying monster with the highest utility, and Mark 6, which is a reptilian monster.
I was worried about what would happen if I gave life to the remaining battle monsters.

Sniff sniff.
Adjutant Itra searched the abandoned building near the north wall, sniffing around for the scent.
A rusty iron gate was revealed after a while.
-Kkieeeek, thump!
When Itra opened the door, there was the skinny-faced Count Hornwood.
“Who’s there? Did you bring something to eat?”
The real Earl of Hornwood, who was imprisoned by Weed.
Although we were given a little bread, we didn’t eat it sparingly and ran out early.
“Meet the Count.”
“Yeah, you… … .”
The Earl of Hornwood frowned as if he didn’t remember. But it didn’t matter anyway.
“Okay. The captain of the guard betrayed me, so I have to punish him. For now, take me to a safe place.”
Itra tilted her head.
“Why do we have to save the Count? The monsters really have invaded. If we had stayed still like the Count said, we would have all died.”
“Is that so? That is not important. In any case, I am the rightful owner of the Earldom of Hornwood. The captain of the garrison and all those who have problems must be punished.”
Count Honwood squared his shoulders and asserted his rights, but to Ithra it was laughable.
“You really don’t remember anything.”
“Huh? What are you saying… … .”
“I won’t tell you my grudge against you. Even in hell, you’ll still wonder.”
From Itra’s fur-covered hands, claws as sharp as steel protruded.
* * *
Geomchi is continuously breaking through the most extreme difficulty levels.
Weed is doing a quest with difficulty S+.
“Ugh, I should be there.”
Choi Jong-beom’s back muscles trembled as he watched Roanoke’s broadcast.
The Master and the Youngest Priest were fighting in Roanoke, and the reason he didn’t log on wasn’t because he cared about his life.
I was willing to be with them because it was my only life.
Even if we fight and die together at the last moment, I will have no regrets.
There was just some pressing reason why I couldn’t connect.
“If you log in there, it’ll be a few months at the shortest. You’ll have to lie in a capsule for that period of time, and the muscle loss will be unbearable.”
After Lee Hyun succeeded in body modification, he felt a physical wall.
Even when he trained without any strength, there were many times when it was difficult to handle, and being physically pushed was something that Choi Jong-beom had never experienced before in his life.
“How can I grow more muscle?”
Choi Jong-beom asked questions to artificial intelligence using the eagle method on the Internet and received answers.
―Yes, muscle growth is a very important question. In order to stimulate muscles, exercise, rest, and proper nutrition are necessary.
Since that day, Choi Jong-beom exercised for eight hours a day, ate according to his diet, and got plenty of rest at night.
High-intensity training alone can increase muscle mass but decrease physical ability.
I did everything I could to build my body, including strength training, agility and coordination, and endurance training.
My weight kept increasing.
100kg, 110kg, 120kg, 130kg.
Every day is a new challenge as you build strength, endurance, and flexibility to keep up with your increasing weight.
How horrible would it be to build such a perfect body only to spend months lying in a capsule?
“The day I come out of the capsule alive will be the worst day of my life. I won’t be able to squat 300kg.”
How weak is a life that cannot lift a 300kg barbell.
Choi Jong-beom felt strength overflowing from his arms, legs, and waist, perhaps because he had exercised well yesterday.
My hair is falling out, but my muscles are still growing well.
Choi Jong-beom had a dream since he was young.
“No. Just don’t touch my girlfriend.”
Fighting off thugs for his girlfriend, getting beaten up, and then getting comforted by her asking if she was okay.
I thought that was a real man.
The reality was that he didn’t have a girlfriend, and there was no way that the situation where the thugs would attack him could have happened.
Because ordinary people couldn’t look each other in the eye and have a conversation.
“Roanoke… … .”
Choi Jong-beom was not the type of person to worry for long because stress hinders muscle growth.
So, I decided to ask the person who gave me advice at a crossroads in life a question.
“I wonder how much muscle mass I’ll lose if I’m in a capsule. I hate losing muscle the most.”
The era of artificial intelligence.
The artificial intelligence answered the final offender’s question.
―You don’t want to lose muscle. Muscle is a very important part of maintaining health. If you stay in the capsule for a long time, your muscle can decrease. Recently, Unicorn has developed a cutting-edge capsule that prevents muscle decrease.
“huh?”
Artificial intelligence has informed us that Unicorn has released a cutting-edge capsule that not only supplies nutrients but also maintains and grows muscles through electrical stimulation.
Anyone with some sense of humor would have had doubts from the start.
‘Why are you making this? With the Roanoke incident, is there a demand for a capsule with cutting-edge technology?’
But the final verdict was exactly what he wanted.
“I want to buy capsules.”
I thought it would be a very expensive price, but if I could fight alongside my master and disciple.
Besides, in Roanoke, you can use your own body as is.
―This will link you to the order page. Just write your name and address, and Unicorn will install it for you today.
“How much does it cost?”
-Free for 3 generations and 800 or more.
Choi Jong-beom installed the capsule that very day and connected to Roanoke.
