Overgeared - Chapter 556

Chapter 556

“Let’s go to Bairan first . ”

"Is Jishuka coming with us?”

Mass Teleport was a very complicated spell . A magic circle needed to be drawn every time . Depending on the number of users and coordinates, the form of the magic circle was different every time .  That’s why Sticks asked the question before drawing the magic circle . Grid replied, "No, it will just be the two of us . ”

The reason why they needed to defend Bairan was to defend Patrian . Patrian was the most important . Jishuka couldn’t be allowed to leave if the enemy’s offensive was going to continue . Jishuka knew this better than anyone .

'It’s unfortunate that I can’t move with Grid . . . ’

She couldn’t not use the power that Grid gave her . Jishuka wanted to be a useful person for Grid . She waved to Grid .

"Leave it to me . I will take care of Patrian . Let’s settle the accounts next time . ”

“Yes . ”

Grid replied with a smile . He was sincerely relieved .

'I almost drank kimchi soup again . ’

In the past, Grid was the master of drinking kimchi soup . Every time a woman looked at him or tried to talk to him, he mistakenly thought she liked him . He cared too much about the opposite sex and interpreted it the wrong way if the other person showed even a little interest in him .

But Grid realized it after the incident with Ahyoung . Reasonable grounds were needed in order to love someone .  From this point of view, Grid thought that the best beauty Jishuka couldn’t be sincere about her offer .  It was natural .  Jishuka would be courted by all type of competent, handsome, and personable men . Jishuka couldn’t like him .

‘In the first place, why would a woman like Jishuka propose to a man first?’

He almost took the joke seriously, but got goosebumps when he thought about Ahyoung .

‘I couldn’t tell it was a joke and almost misunderstood . ’

He finally grew into a man who could read the mood! Grid felt his growth as he disappeared with a flash of light . Once Jishuka was alone, she couldn’t bear it anymore and blushed .

"I was rejected . . . ”

How many women in the world experienced being rejected after proposing to a man? Jishuka’s chest hurt and she was also ashamed .   She liked a man for the first time in her life and was rejected!

"You fool . ”

The big problem was that she proposed before they were even dating . It was likely that Grid thought she was a strange woman . She blushed with mortification .

“Hing . ”

Jishuka wiped her tears and sniffed, unlike her usual self .  She was a solo person who became smaller in front of the opposite sex . On the other hand, on the battlefield below the walls . . .

“Everybody forgot about me?”

Regas barely recovered from where he was lodged in the ground . He was very sad .

*** 

Gangnam, Seoul .

The finest luxury mansion that surpassed 50 billion won in value a year ago .  Yura was sitting in the huge garden overlooking the Han River . Her dazzling white skin shone under the sun .

‘My body is heavy . ’

Over the past few days, Yura had connected to the game until the daily access limit was reached . It was in order to defend Bairan from the enemy’s offensive . She needed to minimize the amount of time she left .  As a result, fatigue pushed against her like the tide .

Her life patterns collapsed and the amount of food and exercise was insufficient .  The biggest problem was that she couldn’t imagine when the enemy’s offensive would end .  It was estimated that the Eternal Kingdom could mobilize approximately 500,000 soldiers .  As long as Eternal had a complete food distribution route, it was possible that Bairan could deal with 100,000 enemies at once .

Could she hold on? Yura shook her head .

‘I have to hold on . ’

She was working hard for Grid .  They couldn’t lose in vain .  Yura calmed her heart and confirmed the time . She could access the game in 30 minutes . She entered the living room and turned on the TV before taking off her clothes .  It was for a shower . Her white skin was truly . . . Omitted .

『 Breaking news . I just received news that the Eternal army invading Patrian have been driven away . 』

Yura was heading to the bathroom and stopped when she heard noise from the TV .  Patrian had excellent defensive features compared to Bairan . In addition, the average level of the soldiers that invaded Patrian was lower than those invading Bairan .

But it still wasn’t easy .  There were at least 20,000 Eternal soldiers attacking Patrian, with the guilds led by Bubat, Jeff, and Ralph among them . Yet Patrian drove Eternal to the brink of collapse?

‘How is it possible?’

The TV started showing the Patrian war video, answering the question of Yura and the viewers .

『 As you can see, the primary strike from Reidan’s mage unit dealt a primary blow to Eternal’s siege weapons . Since then, the offensive of the army weakened . 』

『 The members of the magic unit are made of a species that is hard to see on the West Continent . Their skin color and tattoos are unique . 』

『 According to the information provided by Satisfy researchers, they’re an ethnic minority called the Ul Clan . They are said to have natural talent in magic . 』

『 Why are the Ul Clan in Overgeared? 』

『 The Ul Clan suffered destruction due to the Saharan Empire . They lost their home and Grid seemed to have obtained them in a timely manner . 』

『 Hah . . . Grid’s ability to attract and manage NPCs is truly exceptional . 』

『 It seems he can raise the affinity of NPCs very easily . At this point, it might be fair to argue that the ability to be easily acknowledged by NPCs might be the effect of his class or titles .  』

In the video, the Ul Clan suddenly appeared due to Mass Teleport . They bombarded the siege weapons deployed at the rear of the Eternal army and disappeared with Mass Teleport .

『 Even if it’s a species specializing in magic, it’s amazing that they can use Mass Teleport . I heard that only a few players and the great magicians can use it freely at this time . 』

『 No . If you look at the video closely, it isn’t the Ul Clan who are using Mass Teleport . Look at the person starting the Mass Teleport spell while the Ul Clan are attacking the siege weapons . 』

The video zoomed in and showed Sage Sticks . The experts were surprised when they saw him .

『 An elf . . . ! Grid is also friends with an elf! 』

Satisfy’s episodes were still in the early stages . The existence of other species were very rare and it was rare for the two billion users to actually encounter other species . Yet Grid already made friends with an elf!

『 Grid’s affinity seems to be applied even to other species . Really amazing . 』

『 Truly God Grid . . . 』

『 It’s the first time an elf has appeared . But why a male instead of female? It’s disappointing . 』

Some of the experts feeling admiration talked nonsense, but there wasn’t a problem . The nonsense represented the hearts of most male viewers!

『 Hum hum, in any case, Patrian’s Overgeared members are able to breathe for a while due to the mage unit . However, a crisis will soon come . Bubat, Jeff, and Ralph were just watching the war and made their move . 』

This time, the video showed Bubat’s group .  Regas was quite exhausted but the power of Bubat’s group was overwhelming as they easily suppressed him .  Jeff and Ralph was also successful as they slaughtered the Overgeared members .  They showed the dignity of the high rankers . But it was only for a moment .

『 At this point, most viewers probably expect Patrian to be occupied soon . The Overgeared members are in a desperate situation . But then Grid appeared . 』

The dignity that Bubat, Jeff, and Ralph showed? They fell into disarray the moment Grid emerged . Grid showed his majesty to the world as he fired dozens of Magic Missiles at the same time, devastating the army .

“Cool . . . ”

Yura’s jewel-like eyes shone as she saw Grid’s appearance on the screen .  

『 Now he’s handing over a bow . 』

Yura and the viewers witnessed the incredible sight of Grid giving Jishuka a bow .  Then a firebird rose in the sky .  The battlefield instantly turned into a sea of flames . Bubat, Jeff, and Ralph were helpless before Jishuka’s arrows .

“The bow . . . What’s the rating?”

An unidentified bow that raised the user to a legendary level . It was an unusual performance compared to conventional legendary weapons . The experts guessed carefully .

『 It’s an extraordinary power, even considering the fact that the bow has good compatibility with Jishuka . In particular, the wide effect effects are overwhelming in a war . My guess is that it’s a quest only item . 』

A quest only item . It was an item indispensable for clearing a specific quests . There were causes where the item had transcendent function in order to complete the quest .

『 In other words, the Overgeared Guild has a quest to defend against Eternal’s offensive . In the course of the quest, Grid gained a powerful bow to prevent the enemy’s offensive and Jishuka became the incarnation of a fire god . 』

『 I agree . The reason why Grid didn’t show up during the war is now being explained . 』

『 Isn’t it great? Then the Overgeared Guild can prevent the Eternal invasion? 』

『 It’s difficult . How can they win a war just because of one item? Once Eternal secures a steady food supply and starts the artillery bombardment, all of Overgeared’s territories will be occupied in an instant . 』

『 But the Overgeared Guild will gain a reputation in exchange for losing their territories . The prestige of a single guild that fought fiercely against a kingdom . They will be legends in Satisfy, and that should be good enough . 』

The experts were always making guesses .  They were guesses based on speculation and were rational . The problem was that Grid’s abilities were unreasonable . The speculation of the experts were unfortunately wrong .

*** 

"Baron Duka and Earl Carrion have joined!”

"Marquis Bela and Earl Red have joined!”

As many as 100,000 people were gathered near Bairan .  It was thanks to the leadership of the nobles under the command of the king . Chief Commander Duke Lucilliv smiled with satisfaction .

"Thanks to the advance forces, the rebels are already tired . Today we will occupy Bairan, putting Patrian into our hands!”

"For Eternal!”

"For King Aslan!”

"Waaahhhhhhhh!"

The morale of the 100,000 soldiers increased .  The sight of the endless procession was spectacular . The beasts and monsters were surprised by the powerful march and ran away .

“Now the war will end and the people will be at peace . ”

The soldiers who joined from various places were making bright expressions .  Grid, the one-time hero of the kingdom, who was now a rebel not loyal to the royal family .  The soldiers were pleased that the man who caused turmoil in the kingdom was finally going to be punished and peace would return .  It was like they were going to a picnic instead of a battlefield .

Only one soldier had a dark expression . A new recruit from Partu .

“Hey Ars . Are you tense?”

“ . . . ”

"Haha, it’s natural to be nervous . This is the first time you’re in a war . But don’t worry too much . There are 100,000 of us . The rebels will be destroyed and the war will be over . ”

In fact, the senior soldiers of Partu were  somewhat uneasy .  All the young people in the land prior to the war and even beggars whose identities couldn’t be proven were conscripted into the army, turning military discipline into a mess .  It wasn’t just from Partu’s territory, but other territories .

The size of the army wasn’t always advantageous .  But what would happen? They could overwhelm the rebels with numbers .

“The rebels will never be able to endure the endlessly pushing army . ”

Ars quietly listened to the words of the senior soldiers and muttered .

"Until the command system is lost . ”

Ars’ gaze was fixed to Duke Lucilliv’s back .  The leader of the 100,000 troops, Duke Lucilliv, was unaware of the gaze .  

At the same time, in Bairan .

“100,000 troops are advancing from the direction of Partu . ”

“What? 100,000?”

It was crazy . The sweaty and bloody faces of Pon and the Overgeared members were filled with frustration and despair .

"They have already moved such a large army? Lauel’s estimate was wrong?”

Lauel said that Eternal’s army and transportation system had a blind spot . He predicted that Eternal wouldn’t be able to operate an army of 100,000 for at least two weeks . But that was wrong . Eternal’s army system was better organized than Lauel’s analysis .

"Recently, Lauel has been making too many mistakes . ”

“He’s managing the guild and the territories alone . He’s too busy to be perfect . ”

“It can’t be helped, even with geniuses . In any case, we can’t hold on any longer . We need to retreat . Let’s join Patrian . ”

The Overgeared members couldn’t help thinking .  How much better would it be if Asmophel was here? If the master of strategy led the army .

' . . . Sigh, there’s hope even when he’s playing as a soldier . ’

Somewhere in the Overgeared territories, Private Ars was playing an active role . That’s how Overgeared could withstand the enemy’s offensive until now . Pon believed this .

*** 

-It’s finally done .  The members can’t hold on any longer .  I will join the war .

Reidan .

Lauel heard a whisper and rose from the seat .

'Piaro and the water clan have arrived . ’

Over the past week .

Lauel had scattered personnel throughout Eternal . It was in order to fully understand the military trends of the Eternal Kingdom .

‘I think I’m getting hair loss . ’

It was so hard and stressful that he lost hair in reality . A handful would fall out every time he ran a hand through his hair .  But now wasn’t the time to be afraid of becoming bald . It was time for him to move . He needed to put an end to the making Grid a king project .

"Before I leave, I would like to ask this of you, Kasim . Please do this in preparation for the empire’s raid . ”

Prior to directly leading the army, Lauel summoned Kasim and gave him an order .  

Kasim felt admiration as he heard it . "This is a remarkable plan . I understand . ”
