Chapter 137 – Episode 137. Intrusion Prevention System
I immediately used the stealth skill.
The Chinese look around as if embarrassed by my sudden disappearance.
“Get on the boat. Do you know how to drive?”
The Chinese, startled by the voice that came from the air, continued to look around and said.
“Ha, I don’t know how to-“
“If you don’t know, you should die.”
“I know how to do it!”
The Chinese immediately got on the motor boat they had been riding on, and I also got on the boat and looked at the Seunggeuk ship in the distance.
Oh, I’m nervous.
I went into hiding, but if I ever get caught on the radar…
Should just pop out
First of all, summon the cradle, hide in it, and retreat while blocking the attack with Jiyoon’s shield.
That should be enough.
On the motorboat approaching the mothership, I looked at the Seunggeukseon with tense eyes.
If it shows any sign of attack, it will jump right up.
The Chinese man driving the motorboat also seems very nervous.
If by any chance I get caught on the radar and get attacked, the Chinese won’t be safe either.
But,
Even when we got close to the Seunggeukseon, there was no such thing as an attack.
Whoa, what a great stealth skill.
No, it’s not that the stealth skill is great, ‘Yeonwoo’s stealth skill’ is great.
If it was a skill of the right level, it might have been spotted on the radar.
Anyway, it was the best luck to pick up Yeonwoo recently.
The Seunggeukseon seen up close seemed much larger than when seen from afar.
What a huge ship.
And, a pale blue film covering the ascending pole.
“What is that blue membrane?”
“That is the entry system. Not open to unregistered…”
“Hmm. You are very thorough.”
The motorboat approached the stern of the Seunggeukseon, and a long ladder was prepared there.
Said the Chinese who stopped the boat.
“Hey, you can go up here.”
“Go up first. If you go upstairs and detect any futile activity, your head will be cut right there.”
“Ah, got it.”
“How do you get through that entry system?”
“Me, I am registered in the system, so it will open without difficulty. So you just have to follow me closely.”
“Okay. Okay. Take the lead.”
“Yeah, yes.”
Hearing my voice from the empty air, he shrugged his shoulders and answered as if he was quite frightened.
He started climbing the ladder, and I followed him up.
After climbing a fairly high ladder, he was finally able to stand on the deck of the polar ship.
As expected, the hull of the Seunggeukseon covered in blue light.
As the Chinese approached, only that part slid and the blue light disappeared, and the Chinese walked into that part.
I also snuggled up behind him and went inside.
Is it an intrusion?
I feel like security is less than I thought.
There is no one guarding it.
Do you believe in things like radar and access systems?
Well, I can’t believe it.
If I hadn’t caught Yeonwoo’s stealth skill or this Chinese guy, I wouldn’t have gotten in so easily.
I tried to enter the ship following the Chinese.
At that time,
Weeeee
A loud siren started to blare.
Oh what
Did you get caught?
Why did you get caught
A Chinese man walking in front of me shouted with a contemplative face.
“My, that’s not what I did! I went through the system normally, but why…!!”
Hmm, from that reaction, I don’t think he did anything.
Originally, when an outsider enters the guild base, a message like this is sent to the guild leader [Someone who is not a guild member has entered the base.].
Because it’s one of the basic features of the guild system.
However, Yeonwoo’s stealth skill is high enough to chew up even that system.
That’s why he must have thought of infiltrating right next to the Death Knight guild leader and conducting spying activities.
So, I don’t think it was known to the guild leader through the guild system.
Then…
‘It must be that there is an additional security system.’
Well, what can I do if I get caught?
Since they came all the way to the inside, the intended purpose was achieved.
From now on…
‘It’s a forced breakthrough.’
I broke stealth.
I got it anyway, so there’s no need to use it.
My subordinates will be able to properly protect me only when I am exposed.
After disabling stealth, I immediately summoned the Cradle of Rest.
“Everybody come out!”
Armed in the cradle, my subordinates ran out.
I asked the Chinese.
“The captain of this ship… Where is the guild leader?”
“Ah, he’s probably in the captain’s office on the fifth floor.”
Hmmm, 5th floor.
I don’t know where to go
“Tell me the direction and the way to go.”
“My, if you go inside, there will be a staircase in the middle. If you use the stairs, you can go up.”
“Okay.”
After pushing him away, I summoned the Skeleton Soldiers.
Fifteen skeleton soldiers with goblin daggers.
The number of combatants on this ship is said to be about 40.
Besides, half of them are out on recon missions.
If so, there are about 20 combatants left.
My skeleton soldiers alone were enough to deal with.
However, the scary thing about this ship is not the fighting forces.
Intrusion prevention system.
I don’t know what kind of system it is, so I’ll have to be vigilant.
I said to Jiyun who was holding a huge shield.
“Jiyun-ah, take the lead.”
“Yes, brother.”
Jiyoon ran ahead, and I and the other party started to follow behind.
Nearby, I saw a door that led to the inside of the ship.
When Jiyoon opened the door,
Ta-ta-ta-ta-tata-tata-tang!!!!
“Kyaaak!”
With a loud gunshot, Jiyoon bounced back and flew away.
Gun?
Are you shooting?
Seeing that it was enough to hit Jiyoon, it was absolutely not a modern weapon.
No matter how many times I shoot Jiyoon with modern firearms, there won’t be any scratches.
That’s what…
‘That must be an intrusion prevention system. Mana fire. The power is… Quite considerable.’
Ji-yoon, who was wounded all over her body, struggled to get up, and I healed her with the ‘exploitation hand’ skill.
“Thank you, brother. “
“Thank you. Well, let’s go back in. This time, protect yourself properly with a shield.”
“Yes, brother.”
Jiyoon took her shield and went back to the door and kicked the door as hard as she could.
The door was torn inwards with a chug sound.
And
Tatatatatatatatatatang
Again, a loud gunshot is heard.
However, Jiyoon, who was already preparing, moved forward while protecting herself with a shield.
Our party also entered the ship following Jiyoon.
After entering inside, Jisoo jumped forward and cut something of his with a sword.
The gunfire stopped immediately, and only then did Jiyoon sigh and put down her shield.
What Jisoo cut was a simple protrusion that grew like a pipe on the wall.
Did the mana bullets come pouring out of this place?
What a fucking intrusion prevention system.
While I’m holding my breath,
I started to hear a crackling sound from the steps ahead.
About 20 Chinese people appeared with weapons.
They are the remaining fighting force on this ship.
To be honest, they don’t really care.
I immediately gave orders to my Skeleton Soldiers, and the Skeleton Soldiers rushed at the 20 soldiers who came up.
Soon the slaughter began.
Although their strength was weak, the 20 or so combat troops could not use much power in front of the skeleton soldiers equipped with fear passives.
However, my thoughts that it would be sorted out soon collapsed.
Something huge came out of the wall.
It has a height that seems to exceed about 2m and has a white body, and because of the round arms, legs, and torso, it doesn’t look threatening at all. (If you look closely, it’s rather cute.)
The strange creature (?) Approached my skeleton soldiers and swung their arms, and with that single attack, 10 skeleton soldiers were crushed.
Oh wow what is that
“Golem!!”
It was only after hearing Juniel’s voice that he knew that the strange creature was a golem.
It’s a golem
Is that also one of the intrusion prevention systems?
Oh, this is not so easy.
Sieun shot a fireball at the golem.
The golem bounces back with a loud explosion.
Jisoo ran after him and swung his sword to split the golem in half.
I said to Shi-eun, rubbing off the sparks that splattered around me in the aftermath of the explosion with my foot.
“Sieun. I think it would be better to use your skill by adjusting the output. If I don’t, my stomach will burn.”
“Ah… Yes, oh, brother.”
Since it’s an indoor battle, Si-eun’s skills are limited.
But I can’t help it.
Our purpose is not to destroy this ship, but to occupy it.
While clearing the golem, Juniel ran out and cleared the rest of the Chinese with the skeletons.
The guild defense effect should have increased the guild members’ stats by 20%, but they weren’t very high stats in the first place, so it was easily solved by Juniel participating in the battle for a while.
Leaving behind the situation that was quickly organized, I ordered the party to go up the stairs.
As expected, Jiyoon leads the way with a shield, and we follow after him.
Contrary to our thoughts that another anti-intrusion system would be activated, nothing stood in our way as we made our way up to the third and fourth floors.
And the reason was only found out on the 5th floor.
A wide hallway space, and across the aisle behind it, I see one of the biggest and most luxurious-looking doors.
I think that’s the captain’s room.
The problem is that getting there doesn’t seem to be easy at all.
I saw as many as ten golems I had met before, and among them, there was one golem with a bigger head than the other golems and a golden body color.
Just looking at it, the golem seems to be much stronger than the other golems.
Furthermore.
There are more than one or two pipes protruding from the surrounding walls.
They’re all shooting mana bullets over there.
I wondered why the 3rd and 4th floors were so quiet, but it seems that all the defense systems were gathered here, on the 5th floor.
The golems stood motionless, staring at us.
The moment you take even one step here, the battle will begin immediately.
Juniel told me.
“Master. As soon as the battle starts, run towards the captain’s office. Leave this place to me and my sisters. We’ll do our best to get you to the captain’s office safely.”
“Wouldn’t it be better for me to fight here too?”
Juniel shook his head at my words.
“The defense system here is quite strong. In particular, I feel tremendous power from the golden golem standing behind me. It’s going to be a pretty messy melee. In such a chaotic situation, the master could be in danger… I think it would be good for the master to catch the captain of this ship as soon as possible and stop the intrusion prevention system. If you have the skill to move such a huge ship, I think your fighting ability is not that great. So, if you are the master, he should be able to catch the captain well enough.”
I nodded.
Juniel said to Sieun, Jiyoon, and Jisoo.
“Sisters, I will lead this battle. Ji-yoon unnie protects the master as much as possible so that he can go to the captain’s office and moves while Si-eun and Ji-soo take care of the golems. I hope you remove the pipes in the wall whenever you can. The golden golem over there… I’ll take care of it. Mana bullets shoot out of the pipes on the wall, so everyone move carefully. Got it?”
Sieun, Jiyoon, and Jisoo nodded at Juniel’s words.
After summoning the new Skeleton Soldiers, I placed them in the front.
Even a rough mana bullet could hit me instead.
“Okay then…”
I looked around at my companions and shouted.
“Let’s go!!!”
Starting with my shout, the Skeleton Soldiers jumped forward.
The battle began with the sound of gunfire that followed.
