SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 209

Carus VS Lokan (1)

“Damn it.”

It seems that Rokhan himself was also drunk with victory and became a fool for a while. He allowed a break because the resistance of the Black Dragonflight was weak.

Upon receiving the report, Lokan hurriedly opened the magic screen, and was able to check the red force of the enemies rushing in.

“You’re going to cut your back.”

This is enough to make it work.

The number itself was not many, but it seemed almost certain that all of them had been filled with more than the master level, considering the movement speed and the speed of the capture.

At this rate, it was clear that all of the middle points would be blown away and surrounded by enemies.

“Other races”

“They would have noticed by now. But how to act… … .”

Not only humans, but also half-elves, gnomes, and dwarves, if they could survive in any of the strongholds, they would move there, but no matter how much they looked at it, it was not enough.

The main forces of each race were scattered in front of them, and no matter how fast they moved, it was a group that would block them.

Anyone would know that it would be impossible to pass the time with only the troops gathered in a hurry.

‘It’s a matter of which choice you make.’

If so, what should I do?

There were a total of three options.

The first one is to push back towards the enemy.

Conversely, the fact that the enemy’s main force was gathered in the rear also means that the defense in the front has weakened. The enemy’s troops returning after cutting the waist are somehow entrusted to the follow-up support troops, and they will advance more quickly.

In this case, it’s a chicken race. Who will be scared first and stop?

Even if they ate a few more strong points, the supply of the Golden Lion camp with the cut back would be disrupted.

At least, each race should be able to unite based on the time earned, but there is no way for the enemy to stand still, so if the rear support is delayed, the advancing force alone could have to fight against the enemy’s entire army.

The second way is to retreat quickly as it is. Gather troops, and each race unites to face off against the enemy’s separate unit.

Of course, if you understand this side’s movement, the enemies will rush down their troops and try to sandwich it, but that’s the same with this side. It remains to be seen who will go down first.

The third and final method was to break through the weakly defended areas of the enemy individually.

It is said that the enemy came in after cutting off the waist, but considering the size of the troops, there is no way there will be enough troops to be stationed in the area that has already been recaptured.

Therefore, avoiding the enemy’s main force and breaking the garrison was one way to open the way.

Of course, this, too, could lead to an accidental encounter with the enemy’s main force, so a huge battle for the eyes was necessary.

“I got sick.”

Lokan pondered for a long time, but he could not readily come up with an answer.

If only considering the safety of humans, the legion he led, the third method was the best. Humans were located in the easternmost part of the four races.

As they were attacked first, the enemy’s main force had a high probability of passing them.

But on the other hand, living alone meant nothing.

If they lived and the main force of the dwarves, gnomes, and half-elves was annihilated, the defensive line of the Golden Lion camp could be split apart, contrary to what has been pushed so far.“Should we leave it to the dwarfs to choose?”

So, it is not a matter for Lokan to decide alone.

Half-elves aside, will the two races that have coveted this land with the special purpose of a race quest really want to retreat from here?

Lokan spit out a swear word and listened to the communicator. He attempted to connect with the commanders of the Golden Lion’s camp.

-Rokhan: This is Rokhan, a human marquise. You saw the Black Dragonflight appearing from behind. Please share how you will respond.

In order to cooperate with each other in emergency situations like now, it was good to establish communication in advance.

However, even though the connection was successful, their reply came a long time later.

-Etsch: … … Confirmed. fucking bastards It looks like he raked up all the real shit and hit him in the back. If only I went a little further… … . huh, no to pretend you didn’t hear it.

-Iraine: It’s dangerous for the rear to cut off. The enemy’s strength is not so strong, so the troops that come from the rear will rather be defeated individually. You must either unite and fight back, or avoid the enemy’s main force and turn around once in a while. According to the spirits, Carus moved directly.

-Hito: Damn Carus!

The dwarves and gnomes were infinitely sorry.

If I had gone a little further, I would have been able to achieve what I wanted to some extent, but the enemy attacked me at the perfect timing.

I was filled with the desire to advance further, even if I insisted, but everyone stopped thinking about the name of Carus.

Legendary troll hunter.

A living legend itself.

The strongest of the continent and the current head of the trolls.

I don’t know if it’s a mediocre combination of High Master and Master, but if he moved directly, the story would be different.

Even if it wasn’t them, but the strongest of the current Golden Lion camp, he couldn’t be sure of one-on-one with him.

The win rate itself would not exceed 30%. Although he was tied in the same category as High Master, he was a different being.

At this point, the one closest to the Grand Master was Carus.

-Rokhan: Then what are you going to do?

-Etsch: … … For once you have to leave If there really is a charus over there, the corps will end the moment it gets caught.

-Iraine: You can’t get together. There are more numbers here… … Because numbers don’t mean much to him.

-Hito: Then we’ll see you alive, friends. Damn it.

Surprisingly, the three names determined the actions of the entire army.

If you catch it, you die anyway. Whether it be 10,000, 50,000, or 100,000 troops. Those who knew him agreed that the number was meaningless.

therefore open. decided to break through each.

Each tribe is responsible for their own.

It was a moment when the union of the Golden Lions camp became discolored, but it had no choice but to do so. Because it is natural in the face of absolute power.

I don’t know if the strongest people of each race would come to salvation, but for now, they would have to risk everything to fight him.

So it was best to avoid it.

“Gather the entire army.”

After communicating, Lokan immediately gathered his forces.

Perhaps the other races divided their forces and moved some to bait, some to earn time, and some to survive, but humans felt sorry for the strong one.

Like other races, players can only use it as a discarded hand. From Rokan’s point of view, he could only plan for the future by saving as many high-level NPCs as possible, even one more.

“Our goal is… … It’s here.”

As he gathered his forces, Lokan pointed to a place on the map.

This is the point where Carus and the Black Dragonflight’s forces first appeared and started moving.

Because it was dark under the lamp, they started advancing backwards towards the place where all the main force had escaped.

‘I’m not coming this way’

Still, the magic screen continued to watch.

Carus and the main force of the Black Dragonflight were still passing through the stronghold area occupied by humans.

I didn’t know if they would move their troops to this side at all if they made a fuss.

Because of this, he did not take his eyes off the screen and began to march, carefully controlling his speed towards his destination.

I was planning to dig a path until it was time to cross over to the half-elf or gnome area so that the gnomes wouldn’t turn their riders after them.

“Oh, Marquis!”

But it didn’t take long to realize how vain it was.

“Come this way!”

Carus’s troops, who thought they had passed the human realm, abruptly turned their heads and changed direction in this direction.

“Breaking the whole army!”

Lokan clenched his teeth. It greatly increased the speed of the advance and at the same time activated the quest for the users.

[Stop the pursuit] [Quest]

Stop the pursuit of the Black Dragonflight and move the main force safely to the target point.

-Success conditions: safe movement of the main unit

-Success rewards: rare items (random), a lot of fame, a lot of merit

It was written as stopping the pursuit, but it was actually a water ghost operation.

Even if the master level was only double digits, I wasn’t sure if I could stop them, but the users were only class experts.

Some of them noticed something unusual and had already tried to run away with a move order or log out.

However, there were also quite a few people who were caught by the temptation of a large amount of fame and merit, as well as a rare item.

I didn’t mean to kill it, it was just a matter of taking time, so I thought it was worth a try.

‘You only need to enter the battle state.’

If you were in a combat state, it would be difficult to even escape after that. No, every act of escaping would have the effect of distracting attention, so that was fine.

Lokan entrusted the command of the unit to his lieutenants and led his users.

If this is the case, I have no choice but to take the time somehow.

He even modified the direction of movement of the troops to return to the shortest route. No matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to churn around the depths of the enemy camp at will.

Since the news of this situation was sent, the emperor must have sent his own rescue force.

‘Once you push these guys in… … .’

Rokhan firmly ate his heart. He was confident that even any high master could steam it, but he knew that it would be a different story if it was Charus.In previous lives, several high-master users attacked him and were wiped out. He’s not the final boss of the troll race for nothing.

‘Reduce even the number of jerks.’

So there is only one way. Even the Master and High Master who followed him will somehow be taken away.

Even now, the penalty for every single death Rokhan gets is huge, but it’s a hundred times better than losing all of his core troops.

If I could run into it a few times, take time and somehow drop Carus, I thought of pretending to be crazy and challenging him.

‘It’s a pity that my soul was wasted.’

Lokan moved slowly toward the opposing forces of the Black Dragonflight, fiddling with the power of the Soul Collector.

Not long ago, if he hadn’t used a soul corps that cost 5,000 souls, he would have been able to compete one-on-one with Transcendental Awakening.

I felt sad, but it was unavoidable.

Instead of dwelling on past actions, we have no choice but to focus on what we can do now.

“Oh, it’s coming.”

And after a while, they showed up.

They were not of any one race.

In the meantime, the undead, orcs, and goblins were all mixed together with Carus at the forefront, as if to repay the humans and the races of the Golden Lion camp, and their crazy eyes were shining.

“attack!”

“It’s a win-win!”

“You idiot, I can’t win anyway! Just take your time!”

It was the same with this one, too.

They already knew that there was an overwhelming difference in fighting power, but the superiority in numbers and the madness of the group paralyzed their reason.

A blind hope that something could be done rose.

Bubbly bubbly!

“Uh-huh!”

“… … crazy.”

Just then, a single arrow pierced the battlefield.

He accurately aimed at Lokan, who was trying to penetrate all those who stood in the way and hide himself in the gaps of users.

He wasn’t even a combination skill.

Just one ordinary arrow.

Carus proved himself with it. It broke the morale of the humans who were about to rush into madness.

Wow!

“ね.”

Lokan hurriedly twisted the battle ax to block it, but the lingering impact of the shock in his hand was not formidable. But there’s no time to worry about that.

Rokhan raised his head and looked straight at Carus, who was staring straight at him.

“I came to see you, but if you try to play hide-and-seek, it will be bitter.”

Towards such a Rokhan, Carus revealed his protruding tusks and gave a vicious smile.
