This Is Not a Game - This Is Not a Game chapter 197
guerrilla warfare
A huge building in the center of the city.
A high-pitched voice erupted from the mayor’s room located on the top floor of a building where only a select few, such as noble lineages, conglomerates, and politicians, could enter.
“Are you telling me to watch this?!”
Clink!
The blue-skinned demon threw the teacup he was holding at the deputy mayor in front.
Fragments of the broken glass and the tea water inside stained his clothes, but the deputy mayor did not even budge after being hit by the glass.
It was because he knew that if he moved even a little bit, the market would go mad.
The mayor, who started with a teacup and threw everything he could get his hands on, such as papers, pens, and terminals, buried himself deep in his chair when he had nothing more to throw.
“Another power station was attacked.”
“Yes.”
“The core facility being repaired completely collapsed and most of the technicians nearby died, so they said the repairs might be finished sometime.”
“… … Yes.”
“It has already been a week since the rationing system was implemented. Emergency energy has been cut by less than half, and public opinion is getting worse. When I checked this morning, my approval rating was down to single digits.”
The mayor said, glaring at the deputy mayor with bloodshot eyes.
“What did you say when you were first attacked?”
“… … .”
“Can you hear me? Tell me what you said.”
“… … They said they could catch it in a day or two at the latest.”
“But now it’s been a week.”
“… … .”
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
The mayor beat the table at a steady pace.
The deputy mayor swallowed dryly, knowing that this is a habit that comes out when he is extremely angry.
The power of the mayor in the city is absolute.
His approval ratings were disastrous, but he was still the mayor, and it wasn’t even a matter of killing himself.
“Give me a day. It doesn’t matter whether they kill or save, so bring those humans to this place tomorrow at this time. If you fail this time, you won’t die gracefully.”
“All right!”
Fortunately, the market gave me one more chance.
The deputy mayor quickly left the room before the mayor changed his mind and immediately activated the terminal.
It’s about taking your own life.
I couldn’t entrust it to anyone else.
– Vice Mayor, as I have said several times, I am trying my best. just a little more time… … .
“I will give you an hour. Mobilize all available forces and it doesn’t matter how much money it costs, so if you have any useful mercenaries, bring them all and prepare for the march. I will direct it myself.”
* * *
Weeing! Weeing!
With a loud siren sound, the massive iron door slowly began to open.
After a while, numerous vehicles came out through the completely open doors.
Military trucks, armored vehicles, hover bikes, helicopters, multi-legged tanks and more.
And there were people who were observing it through telescopes.
“There are a lot this time. Do you think it will be twice, no, three times?”
“It is said that they mobilized all their surplus power and even recruited mercenaries. Of course, there must be many.”
Yoosung answered calmly and turned over the hologram screen.
The Pandemonium’s network environment was very similar to Earth’s Internet environment.
No, it was safe to say that it was the same.
There are portal sites, video sites, and even gambling sites.
Of course, there were sites similar to SNS, and the nature and level of consciousness of users were similar.
‘There is no such thing as a clairvoyant.’
On the hologram screen, there were numerous texts, photos, and videos related to Tigros City.
An attack on a power station supplying energy to Tigros a week ago.
Citizens’ agitation and confusion due to energy supply instability.
A series of raids, failed repairs to the facility, and deterioration in security due to the increasing loss of troops to the army.
From the mayor’s anger today to the deputy mayor’s own troops leading out of the city.
Yuseong knew everything that happened in Tigros.
“How are you?”
Yoosung, who was checking the Pandemonium’s streaming site, burst into laughter without knowing it.
[Can you see it, brothers? This time Mayor Ilgram drew his sword properly. No, not the mayor, but the deputy mayor? According to an anonymous informant, Goseong came and went in the mayor’s office, and the deputy mayor came out with a hard face… … .]
A broadcast from a demon with three eyes.
Looking at the background and surroundings, it seemed that the subjugation party that had just come out of the city was broadcasting in real time.
I only watched the video for a short time, but I was able to figure out the composition and size of the troops and the movement plan.
Can’t they think that humans will access their networks and get information?
The security consciousness of the demons was pitiful, so it was at a pitiful level.
‘Actually, it’s not something to laugh at.’
If you think about it, humans on Earth were also similar to demons.
Even though he knows that there are monsters with intelligence, he relays the hunting of monsters to the world through internet broadcasting.
There are countless videos on New Tube that thoroughly analyze the contractor’s ability and fighting style.
With a quick search, you can get information about the location of military bases or heads of state.
Until now, there has been no case of abuse of the Internet, but this could happen at any time on Earth.
“Mr. Yooseong?”
“Oh, sorry. I was thinking about something else for a while.”
Yooseong, who came to his senses at Teresa’s call, turned off the terminal and raised his head.
The demon army was approaching nearby.
Yuseong, who was waiting for the distance to get closer, sent the promised signal the moment the middle of the ranks passed in front of him.
aaang!
At the same time as the white light flashed, the helicopter floating in the sky lost balance and crashed, causing a huge explosion.
While the demons were confused and wandering around in the helicopter that crashed one after another, Meteor began to rotate the circle in the heart by moving magic.
Unlike magic like thorns that can be activated with a simple flow of magical power, the circle magic that Marcus learned requires some preparation.
Once the circle of the heart is rotated to create attraction, it absorbs the mana spread throughout the world, dyes it with its own mana, and releases it again.
‘Dye the world with my color.’
If a warrior is a being who builds his own world, a wizard is a being who communicates with the world.
Compared to an unarmed man who has formed a solid ego and is not swayed by external laws, the scope of his will is much wider, even if his will is less strong.
The faster the circle rotated, the wider the range of the magic field began.
The magic of the demon world and the magic of Marcus resisted like water and oil and tried not to mix, but in front of the evil eye of truth, which could be called soapy water, there was no choice.
“Whoa.”
Yooseong inadvertently made an ecstatic expression at the sense of omnipotence that filled his entire body.
The magic field refers to a space where one’s will can completely dominate.
Within the magic field, wizards can exert power close to omnipotence.
-How many times have I told you that only within the limits of your magic power, but you still don’t understand?
Yoosung ignored Marcus’ words and expanded the range of his magic field.
And the moment I put the entire demon army within the range of the magic field, I thought of a huge explosion.
Kwakwagwagwang!
The dream soon became a reality.
A huge explosion occurred among the demons.
The explosion didn’t stop there.
As if biting tail after tail, the explosion continued without a break.
It was because not only the magic, but also the bombs that had been buried in advance were exploding at the same time.
“Is this crazy? What is this magic field?!”
The demons who can use magic were shocked when they recognized the magic field created by the meteor.
The wizard’s fight is the magic field’s fight.
First of all, you can do anything by pushing away the opponent’s magic field and expanding your own magic field, but no matter how much you rotate the circle to absorb and release magic, the unknown magic field surrounding you shows no sign of being pushed away.
“There is a wizard!”
“You have to distract yourself! Anything is fine, so get in the way of him!”
Tadadadang!
Wheein!
Fire erupted from gunpowder and railgun muzzles, and a legion of drones began flying towards the meteor.
It was a pretty threatening attack, but Meteor didn’t even budge.
Instead, Walter, who was behind him, stepped forward and swung a sword wrapped in fiery sword energy.
Whoo!
Where the sword passed, traces of the sword were left.
Walter swung his sword right away before the traces of the sword technique left by the first blow disappeared.
Twice, four times, eight times, sixteen times, thirty-six times… … .
The afterimage began to spread more and more, and as soon as the thousand sword strikes reached, a flawless, flawless sword screen was created.
Cagaga River!
The lead bullets evaporated the moment they hit the sword screen, and the railgun bullets ricocheted in the wrong direction.
Walter is one of the best knights in the Arion Empire.
A few days ago, he was stumped by a few monsters, but now that he has regained his strength and equipped himself with proper weapons, he was able to block this kind of attack without difficulty.
“Nathan!”
Tung! Tung! Tung! Tung!
Red-blue-green-yellow.
Arrows with each attribute fly and leave four colored trails.
As if it had been erased with an eraser, nothing was left where the arrow had passed, and the bee-like drones could not reach the meteor even once.
“A lower race dares!”
“Capturing priority targets. excluded.”
While the main unit and the drone corps drew attention, the demons and combat androids who had learned martial arts succeeded in approaching.
A knight who is busy blocking bullets and a wizard who is concentrating on his consciousness.
The demons and androids all rushed towards the wizard.
You can leave the article alone.
However, the more delayed the wizard, the more damage increases exponentially.
“Die!”
The demons at the forefront launched a sword attack with all their might towards the wizard.
A sword imbued with strength.
The demon had no doubt that his sword could cut the wizard in two.
Caang!
“… … uh?”
The demon momentarily forgot the situation he was in and spat out a stupid sound.
The magician had his own sword that could split even an ogre, famous for its tough leather, with a single blow.
“If you received it, you must return it.”
Whoa!
A pink aura formed on Yoosung’s hand.
A heterogeneous aura that feels the power of destruction and holy power at the same time.
It was the result of merging the Red Blood Spirit’s Red Blood Spirit and the Holy Avenger’s power of light with Mu-Geuk Jin-Gi.
In response to the fierce warning sent by instinct, the demons immediately took steps.
The demon moved away from the meteor at such an incredible speed that it left an afterimage, and the pink aura only slightly scarred his chest.
‘I live… … .’
“Aagh!”
For a while, I felt relieved that I was alive.
The demon fell down screaming in agony as if its entire body was being torn to shreds.
It was only a scratch, but that was enough.
In terms of simple power, the Red Blood Spirit is stronger than the Heavenly Demon Spirit.
The attack with the added power of the Holy Avenger, which inflicts 100% additional damage on enemies with magic and death properties, was tantamount to a death sentence for demons.
Perseok.
The demons who were screaming turned into powder and scattered.
It happened in an instant.
The demons who remembered the fact that the demon who had just died in vain were among the five strongest in Tigros, and the demons hurriedly retreated.
But their realization came too late.
Kwajik!
The meteor that cast Shooting Star had already become a ray of light and pierced the demons.
an hour after that.
Upon hearing the news that all forces had been annihilated, the mayor of Tigross grabbed the back of his neck and collapsed.
