Chapter 489 – Episode 489: Academy Secret Room Murder 4
The Academy has become so over-protected that even the expression that it is a mess is an understatement. Not only vacant lots, but even unexplored areas where buildings have not been built, let alone built, are protected by magic and sorcery, so the crushed demons pour out to the shore near the island.
A messy dimensional crack opened, perhaps because it had been crushed and burst out to the side. A black-purple filth giant that feels dirty and vicious raises its body as huge as a mountain range, and in the wake of it alone, grotesque-looking demons flap their wings in the waves of magic power.
Demons that look like terrible chimeras, with bat wings and insect wings, as if they were cobbled together from human nightmares.
“Leave the giant to the magic girl and shoot down the flying ones!”
“Raise the muzzle! The direction is north-northwest! Everyone starts shooting!”
“This is not shooting practice! It’s okay if it overheats and explodes, so keep grinding!”
However, what those demons were greeted with was not the fear of the victims, but a warm welcome from women in military uniform.
The artillerymen laid out a siege towards the coastline, apparently having tipped off the Academy before the psychics and magical girls came running towards me. Including the super-massive anti-tank that Ye-ji Han was riding, weapons with no uniformity lined up and started firing shells like crazy.
There were mortars that looked like something I’d seen in the military in my past life, as well as Gatling guns with wheels that should have been in museums, laser cannons and rail guns that you’d see in science fiction movies, all thrown together in a haphazard manner.
“Constellation! Let’s sit inside here! There’s an observation window and everything inside!”
“But what are you shooting at?”
The artillerymen had already fired hundreds and even thousands of rounds in the short period of time they were gently transferred from the arms of the magical girl to the arms of Yeji and escorted inside the super tank. When I asked Yeji a question, wondering what the hell was going on, he quickly started explaining.
The academy security team usually catches people who illegally intrude into the academy, but isn’t the academy the last bastion of humanity?
Since the corrupted constellation can send something like a giant monster, there is a hidden military base in the vast grounds of the academy. Originally, it wasn’t to this extent, but the academy’s resident anti-monster unit was strengthened by Svetlana.
“I heard that Harin’s research center has been supplying the military base with the magic power of dream demons by carving them into bullets.”
“Okay? “When did you conduct such research?”
There is no need to move forward, neither to protect the vast continent, nor to expand the scope of human activity. A unit dedicated to literally ‘grinding out’ the enemies that come to occupy the small island called Academy.
That’s why the crazy artillery unit, which consists of 100% of its strength only from artillery, is supplied with anti-monger bullets and begins to run amok.
The funny thing is that the emotions of the artillerymen, who are going crazy, are filled with resentment and resentment, as well as the relief of relieving them. Although it is said to be the magic power of a contaminated dream demon, it is definitely that of a dream demon. Perhaps it is because the dream world is flowing backwards and exploding, I can feel the sense of a dreamlike feeling spreading more and more widely.
‘We are not just beggars who waste money!’
‘This is a special forces unit! We protect the academy!’
‘This is the first battlefield the Constellation is looking at!’
‘If there is only one person in Kangrim, how many people are watching?’
Now that I think about it, what happened at the academy so far was solved by burning the tyrant’s battleship or cutting the bridle with a sword.
Somehow, there was anger contained in the bombardment that was going on like crazy.
Thanks to the sensation of an extended dream that tickled my head, my doubts about the women in military uniforms that suddenly appeared were resolved. However, there was still something left to be curious about, about the super-massive tank with an interior space larger than a studio apartment and the wisdom that drives it.
“But what is this big tank?”
“It is said that the Bulsar is a decisive battle weapon that was modified by wizards, alchemists, and magic engineers, all of whom were gifted to the academy by a tyrant.”
“Why are you driving that? “You’re on the academy patrol team.”
When I asked a question with that in mind, Yeji, who was smiling, tapped my chest with her fist and straightened her shoulders. It’s the same uniform as usual for the academy security team, but the nameplate on the chest is clearly visible to show secret magical power.
The word Academy Patrol Team Han Ye-ji turns black as if covered in ink, and moves slowly to create new letters.
Anti-Monster Task Force
Tank Commander Han Ye-ji
“Tank commander?”
“Yes! In fact, I secretly became a member of the special forces.”
There was a saying that a man is a child even when he grows up, but should we change it to say a woman is a child even when she grows up? The corners of her mouth twitched at her ears, as if she was very proud of the fact that Han Ye-ji was secretly a member of the special forces, feeling like she was hiding her powers.
Although we lay together in the dorm and talked about all sorts of things, I think we held this one thing in and waited for an opportunity to show it off nicely.
Then he gave a cool salute! When uploaded, the programs inside the tank respond to this. When I wondered how to move this large tank, it seemed that A.I. Was assisting, as expected from a burning tyrant.
“Now! Just sit here and relax! “I’ve been waiting so long to try this!”
From the outside, it looked like a fat tank that had grown in size indiscriminately, but inside it was a state-of-the-art sci-fi space filled with holograms and moving A.I.S, like the cockpit of some kind of bipedal robot.
A number that I couldn’t understand flew by, and then Yeji was busy pressing the hologram button, pulling the lever, and moving around. Judging by the angle in each of his actions, I think he’s aware that I’m watching him from behind.
※
Yeji Han’s abilities as Hwashin are simple.
When a projectile, whether an arrow, bullet, or shell, is fired, it doubles in size and penetrates, ignoring resistance. During a previous experiment, the tranquilizer bullet penetrated the defenses and got stuck, so I was hired by the academy security team… But,
With such a valuable trait as a bullet that ignores her opponent’s resistance, her academy secretly scouted her for its special unit.
Of course, she didn’t secretly steal her talent from me, she just hid it from Yeji because she wanted to show off, so only I didn’t know.
“Fire!”
-Confirm firing command, main gun charge 98%, fire
When I sit down and pull the lever, holding a lot of foam, the main gun of a huge tank, which can be trusted even if it is a main beam, shines brightly.
As if to prove that the science fiction constellation Bulsar was an item given by a tyrant, it makes an ominous and eerie noise that resonates and a wave of mana that makes skin crawl. It looks like it has a ferocious output befitting its size, but it’s not a tank gun, but a laser beam similar to an orbital bombardment.
A blue light flying through the air between bombardments against small demons, clearly visible as a hologram observing the outside world. The demons in the path are erased without even leaving a trace of ashes, and at the same time, a large hole is created in the filth giant’s chest.
“Is this the meaning of flying with two feet?”
“Oh, it’s stronger than I thought. Should I make a soft continuous shooting?”
Seeing that the magical girls are having a hard time, it looks like that dripping filth is a protective layer. So, the main gun fired by Han Ye-ji penetrated the protective shield and pierced the giant’s body… It is so strong that firing two shots seems meaningless.
Moreover, after two flashes of light had passed, the hole was repaired again by the magic that flowed from the crack.
-Red! He’s turning around!
-Did you decide that was the most threatening? Green, protect!
-I’ll tie it up as much as I can!
Still, although mana was wasted due to excessive firepower, it is clear that it was the first effective hit against the filth giant. Thanks to this, the guy who was moving slowly from the coast to the academy turned his body and started glaring at the tank.
Unlike the sluggish giants of filth befitting their size, the demons quickly focus on this direction. From gargoyles with bat wings to giant insects with mosquito wings, they are flocking here, flapping their wings.
… It’s strange, it was clearly a magical girl story about fighting against giant monsters, but at some point it felt like I was becoming an American soldier dealing with monsters?
“Is there anything else besides the main gun?”
“Of course it’s a lot, just wait…” … No, if you’re bored, would you like to shoot the Constellation?”
-Check the secondary gunner’s permission, change the internal arrangement, and complete optimization
Aren’t the cannonballs fired by the Academy’s female soldiers dropping more demons than the colorful magical girls running wild? As I was thinking that, a small table appeared in front of my eyes. Is it possible to at least read Yeji’s mind without a direct command?
A square table, a new hologram screen, a cross-shaped cross-hair in the exact center, and a very familiar mouse. A guy who looks exactly like the gaming computer in my dorm becomes a colonel in front of me.
“Can I shoot with this?”
“What is it? If you just look at it, there’s everything from guided missiles to machine guns, right? “Please only shoot the little guys.”
I know it’s efficient, but it feels really weird.
