Chapter 1190 – #281_All-Out War (5)
#1184
1.
In this war, there is a major premise that both sides have established in common.
The game of war changes depending on how each side utilizes its main force and major piece, the ‘Great Witch’.
However, not all great witches have the same power.
The difference between the 20th hierarchy and the 21st hierarchy is big, and the difference between the 21st hierarchy and the 22nd hierarchy is even bigger.
Therefore, both sides used ‘Daejangjeon’ as the framework in establishing basic strategies.
To put it simply, if a witch of the 21st rank is deployed from the enemy camp, place a witch of the same rank there,
If three 20-tier witches appear, the same three 20-tier witches are placed there.
In a large-scale war that is everyone’s first, it is the easiest to predict and convenient for strategizing.
There is a problem here.
Currently, the number of great witches in Gehenna is smaller than that in Hexennacht.
This is why three old witches joined the Hexennacht side while a large academic society called the Jinri Jinmyeong Academic Society was completely left out of the war.
In addition, there is the Duke of Erelim with an asymmetric power of 25th rank, so he must play a role in resolving the imbalance somewhere in this battlefield.
That is the right-wing protection unit that Leruet was in charge of.
It is a bait role that induces overinvestment of the Hexennacht side’s corps.
Unlike the engagement aspect where exchanges occur with the same number of people of her same rank, Leruet’s specialty is rare’wide-area magic’, so it was also her role that only she could play.
“Sink deeply.”
The aftereffects of deep blue ultramarine magic power are at a level that naturally causes those watching around to feel a sense of awe.
Lerué liberated her fish tank with magical power overflowing like a waterfall.
-Kooooo!!!
-Krrrr!!!
-Kyuuuuu!!!
Strange creatures that cast huge shadows over the desert with a roar that shakes the heavens and earth.
These familiars, which take the shape of sea monsters that have been feared since ancient times, are different from regular familiars in every respect, from size to durability.
This is also the reason why the familiar corps was not deployed separately in the Gehenna right-wing unit.
“Loyalists of the dynasty of Nukelabi! Destroy my enemies!”
In response to Hexennacht, the eastern corps commander, Elara, was not very shaken by the giant familiar that suddenly popped out.
Marking the enemy’s main power is the most basic.
The Deep Sea Witch, who recently joined Gehenna, is one of the powerful enemies to keep an eye on.
Wide-area magic that recklessly eats up power costs, powerful summons, and innate magical power to back it all up.
He is not the type to rely on technique or technique, and the weight class itself is a fraud, so he is not compatible.
Since the source revealed by the spy came from his own mouth his, it is unclear to what extent there was bluff mixed in …
Didn’t even the tricky enemy, the Witch of the Gold, give up her extra life four times to the Witch of the Deep?
“But the limits are clear. Hit and run while deploying troops one by one. Encourage consumption as much as possible. Anyway, without the Deep Sea Witch, the rest is trash.”
But that’s the story of the witch of the deep sea’s home ground, a naval battle, and this is a desert without a single puddle of water.
This means that even if you are a witch of the deep sea, you must consume a considerable amount of magical power to use your power, the ‘demon sea waves’.
Also, she is not a witch who can control her strength and use magic appropriately, so if you push her by controlling her pace, she can easily induce self-destruction.
There was a time when I thought:
“Hmm?”
“A corps commander. “If that happens, doesn’t that mean our plan is ruined?”
“…”
Hexennacht was taking Gehenna’s strengths lightly.
Gehenna’s only advantage over Hexennacht, which is inferior in terms of military power, is its organizational ability her.
Witches who have been in the same society for a long time can use group magic without difficulty.
The ones who moved at the same time as Lruye summoned her familiars were the ‘Emerald Tablet’ side alchemy witches.
“Prepare! “Get the alchemy reagent and gather around!”
“Everyone to the scheduled deployment!”
In their hands are reagents made of coral, blue crystal, salt, water bird feathers, and sapphire.
A reagent that Gehenna’s leading alchemy witches worked hard to refine and create using the highest quality ingredients selected from the ‘Castle’ material warehouse that was generously opened for this war.
-Clink!
Expensive reagents whose cost per bottle is unknown are scattered on the sand.
And as the multiple magic newly established for this day continued…
-Coogu coo coo coo!!!
The earth is shaking.
Wrinkles of sand spread throughout the dunes are turning into ripples.
The sound of soft sand rolling around suddenly changes into the sound of lapping waves, and the refreshing scent of the sea gently blows into my dry nose.
Alchemy is a discipline that was created to change metal into gold, but its essence ultimately lies in the transformation of matter.
This means that if this many witches gather together, it is possible to create an inland sea in the middle of the desert.
-Slap!
The moment when Lerué, whose eyes shine bright ultramarine blue, gently lands on the water that reflects the sky like a mirror.
Raging waves and rough water swells, as if a storm had struck, decorated Le Rue’s background like a folding screen.
“The place where my steps landed is Nukelabi’s territory.”
2.
The right-wing protection unit becomes a breakwater and continues a fierce confrontation.
The clash between the central forces, which was the main battle, was also intensifying.
Currently, the clash between the familiar legions without any involvement from the witches is beneficial to Gehenna.
Although the familiar corps was hastily built by each other, Gehenna, with its division and proper formation, had the upper hand.
If left alone like this, the Gehenna witches will be able to fight using more familiars as shields.
In other words, it means that Hexennacht, who can’t stand it and will do something.
Qliphoth’s western army commander.
Verda, the ‘Verdant Witch’ who takes charge of supplying and strengthening the entire army.
Lulu is not the only witch specializing in war.
Verda, who was able to mass-produce high-performance artifacts at an incredible speed, was a talent suitable for such a large-scale war.
“When dusk falls deep in the forest. The woman hidden in the moonlight. “As soft songs flow along the silver river and the stars twinkle, you embroider your dreams.”
Verda hummed her song as her bare feet stepped on the moss-covered roots of the trees.
Surrounding her is a vast forest that is not suitable for a desert without a single blade of grass.
The dense trees that make up the forest bear a variety of brightly colored fruits.
Her youthful appearance and her mysterious aura of blending into nature made her look like a fairy.
Likewise, Verda, who was observing the situation with clairvoyance, asks.
“Orcelia, when are the fireworks?”
[Hmm, I guess it’s okay now]
“As expected, I have the same thoughts. Or Celia knows how to get in her mood?”
Hehe, then will you start?]
Verda waved her finger lightly.
At the same time, the entire quiet forest began to shake with a roar.
There is a reason why Hexennacht targeted Russia first when it took over the world.
Symbolically, it was a central country in the second world, but above all, it was the country with the largest number of immediately operational nuclear weapons.
A group of meteor-like lights passes by in the sky, half covered with green leaves, and white clouds form a line behind it.
The short-range ballistic missiles that had been gathered in advance in preparation for the battlefield were fired all at once.
“Wow… Pretty…”
Ballistic missiles equipped with nuclear warheads also contain plenty of ‘black fruit’ mass-produced by Verda.
If the weapon that put the witch in danger with only the firepower of a multiple rocket cannon is combined with a nuclear weapon, its power cannot be ignored.
“As expected, it’s artillery fire from the enemy! A total of 521 enemy projectiles were captured! It is believed to be a short-range ballistic missile!”
As soon as the artillery fire, which could be seen at a glance from afar, was confirmed, the Gehenna camp was also put on alert.
“As expected, they immediately respond with artillery fire.”
This was planned to some extent.
In the last small-scale skirmish stage, the’Verdant Witch’had quite a bit of fun with an object that combined modern weapons with her own artifacts.
At the time, it was a multiple rocket launcher, but now it must have had much more firepower than that.
For example, nuclear weapons.
If you anticipate, you can also prepare.
Gehenna also did not stand on this battlefield with weak determination.
“Valetinus’ Secretariat, preparing to intercept the Librarian’s Office.”
The chief librarian, Gremory, also known as the ‘Witch of the Palace,’ commanded the librarians with a bow as tall as her.
The senior librarians and trainee librarians who were preparing for this situation pulled their bows taut and aimed at the sky.
“I’m waiting at the librarian’s desk. We intercept on signal.”
In fact, if it is a simple interception, it is rather an action closer to self-destruction.
Whether it is a strategic nuclear weapon or a tactical nuclear weapon, the principle is generally to explode in the air.
This is because the disaster created by human science has enough power to annihilate the earth even if it explodes in the air.
In addition, there is also the ‘black fruit’ that interferes with various magical events, so even if you intercept it right away, it is almost meaningless.
Therefore, prior procedures are necessary for interception.
There are prerequisite procedures to suppress nuclear missiles that fly in a wide range at high speed, are wrapped in protective techniques to prevent interference and takeover of control rights, and have waves flowing inside that interfere with the exercise of magic.
So, is there anyone who can solve the prerequisite task in less than 30 seconds under such adverse conditions?
“Cry.”
There is.
Another witch specializing in wide-area magic.
Gehenna’s best perfumer and mother of one child.
Witch of Perfume.
This is Amelia Marigold.
