Wolf Hour (1)
Eastern Saudi Arabia, Dammam City.
Three minutes before the awakening of Trokilgigas, the combat control room located on the outskirts of the city was busy.
“LB2, hold your line. Additional assistance will arrive soon.”
[…] … .]
“LB2?”
“Quit. it’s already broken Let’s not expect too much from the local workforce.”
“… Sorry. Even though we sent reinforcements earlier, we did not expect it to collapse.”
“It’s nothing unexpected. Deploy additional personnel from private military corporations (PMCs). Six teams, can you drop them?”
“I will try.”
“great.”
The central and right areas where the mercenaries were in charge were intact, but the left front line where the local heroes were deployed was collapsing.
The controller in charge of overseas personnel struggles to balance the front by dispatching additional personnel as directed by the general manager.
And indeed, the mercenaries of Turkish nationality performed more than expected.
[I will open the front. Turn VI.]
[Excluding recovery system, buff stopped.]
[Confirm buff stop.]
[After the attack ends, the ADs step back. Proximity occupational forces dig into the center of the left side. Until the wires are clear, don’t draw the monster’s attention.]
[Confirm command.]
Within the communication channel, a brief conversation between the mercenaries took place.
Tankers with extensive group combat experience push the big monsters to the side as if they were one team, even though they belong to different teams.
One after another, as the ranged dealers’ abilities poured into the vacant seats, a straight space was created between the monsters.
No matter how unreasonable you may be, the crisis is an instinctive emotion, so the enemy’s offensive slows down and you have a moment of relaxation.
“This is it!”
“It’s neat. Place a positioning order on time.”
“OB1, OC2, 5, 7. Reserve unmanned tanks are circling the left side. Utilize engagements to rebuild the front line… … .”
Then, suddenly, an unexpected situation strikes.
[Battle control room, target is rising into the sky. Please check the pattern.]
“F01, Unidentified Pattern. Repeat, unidentified pattern.”
[Awakening period?]
“… Phase 3 is possible. I will leave the decision to the judgment on the spot.”
“Open the main channel.”
“… Here in the combat control room, an abnormal reaction of the main target was observed. Be careful of the awakening period or the wide area period.”
However, the warning from the battle control room was delayed.
Countless hummingbirds were poking down toward the sandy bottom.
[Oops!]
“OC04 vital signs lost.”
“OB06, 03, OC05… 02… … .”
As the falling energy is added to the burning body, deaths occur everywhere even though the shield is formed.
Keek!
Fortunately, the fire did not discriminate between allies and enemies.
Because the fair calamity summoned by Trokylgis took thousands of lives, both human and monster.
In response, the combat control room took quick action.
[…] A small circle is visible in the sky. Team Fate, ready for Phase 3. Combat personnel other than the main team should keep their distance. Its firepower is one-point projection, and it mainly hits long-distance dealers. Time limit is 55 seconds. Battle control room, please count.]
“F01, confirm request. Let the count begin.”
“… Brief the power situation apart from the count. Instead of reporting each one verbally, put it on the third screen as an integrated list.”
“Yes.”
Receive the request of the gunsmith, Philip Noire, calculate the number of survivors and the number of people capable of fighting, and redistribute forces.
I’m doing my best to help as much as possible.
Nevertheless, it is not possible to fully feel the atmosphere of the scene, and soon the officers’ eyes look puzzled.
“what? Why is the screen frozen?”
“It is not a communication problem. Video transmission is proceeding normally.”
“Then why?”
“… The monsters are also stopped.”
“Then why are you stopping!”
Right after the count ended, Team Fate’s ADs all released their Awakening Skills at once.
The screen in the control room changed several times at the high voice of the person in charge, then stopped at Project L’s tanker – Rajit Shahi’s action cam.
Since it was slightly away from the target, the sky above the horizon was included, and the focus was on Trokilgigas, who had completed his awakening.
Its official name is Tróchĭlus-Gigas.
It was a word meaning hummingbird giant, but it was in the shape of a 10-year-old child, not fitting the name ‘Gigas’.
“… A monster that resembles a human.”
“Don’t be distracted, call the raid! The battle isn’t over!”
“… F01, is the battle sustainable?”
[…] Battle control room.]
“This is the combat control room. Good reception.”
[Data correction is required. That is awakening in the form of physical enhancement. Existing patterns are meaningless… … .]
Philippe Noire’s answer is cut off by a sudden movement.
The child’s shape disappeared as if teleported due to the limitations of the video frame, and sand dust rose from the place where Team Fate was standing.
“Attacked! Report the damage!”
“F02, 03 got it!”
“… It seems that the tank and melee did their job. Thank you.”
“We are still fighting. Your body temperature is rising rapidly!”
“Visibility was not secured. Solve that problem first!”
Each person must be at least level 2 or higher.
A sense of relief passes by at the thought of overcoming the crisis, but the sensor attached to the spearman – Agima Jaya quickly delivered negative news.
* * *
Even before the sandstorm had subsided, the parrot looked into it and showed a disapproving look.
＜I’m addicted.＞
“… Addicted?”
＜The snake on my right hand is a poisonous snake.＞
Have you been bitten by a snake?
Suddenly, bruises fly to the self-talk muttered in my heart.
＜Poison isn’t a weapon, it’s more like power. innate beggar. Wouldn’t it be a problem to avoid the snake’s snout? Just touching his skin will poison you.＞
“… … .”
＜Arthur. It’s not enough just to ‘take over space’. You can block it, but the odds are… Close to half and half. It’s too much of a risk to take.＞
As the new head said, after removing the sandstorm with magic, the bluish complexion caught my eyes.
The tanker Gerard was enduring with his own resilience, but the problem was the Mongols, Agima Jaya.
Well.
I don’t think it will last long.
“There is [Three-Dimensional Recovery] and [Blood Flow Control], you know. I wonder if I can partly endure it.”
＜I told you. That’s the power Witchilopochtli possesses. It’s called unique power. It’s not easy to endure with normal abilities. It would be best not to face-to-face, but if you have to fight at close range without pitch… … .＞
But anyway, I can’t get enough information, so I’m going to continue the conversation.
I don’t know why I don’t listen to the back story.
“Run away?”
＜Wrong. Even if you tell me to run away, you will fight.＞
“If you know, give me the information. Weapons, abilities, unique characteristics, anything is fine.”
＜Whichilopochtli wasn’t always a sun god. Originally as a god of war… … .＞
“Simply, to the point.”
＜… Basically, it’s a body-enhancing monster. The shield in the left hand contains the power of a hummingbird that was born in the south and moved to the west. In other words, it’s thanks to the shield that you can fly. The snake in his right hand is Ciucoatl, the devastating fire. The wriggling poison fangs are also a threat, but be careful as the flames it spews will not be extinguished easily. If you allow the attack, you’ll have to cut out the area.＞
Just in time, Ciucoatl or something spews fire.
The tanker close by, Gerard, hurriedly evaded, but allowed a blow to the shoulder area. Trouble as described.
“… damn it The lights won’t go out!”
[Magicians put tank support first. The recovery ability is fixed to Agima Jaya.]
Abnormal status cancellation and defense-type abilities were of no use at all, and the fire that spread to his chest caught on to the pile of round jewels.
Then it explodes with a roar.
Puts the top level tankers out of combat at once.
＜I told you. That’s a terrible fire that eats away miracles. To resist, you need at least an intermediate level of specialized abilities, especially magic-type abilities. Do you understand what I mean?＞
“It must be difficult to handle with [denial].”
＜Right. You have to raise it to the next level of denial, ‘distortion’.＞
Unfortunately, this is not an immediately acceptable countermeasure.
The higher level of [Negation] is only [Distortion].
Without the concept of an intermediate level, from a lower level to an upper level, how can you raise it if you take side effects… It was difficult to bring out just to block one means of attack.
“It’s tricky.”
＜To be honest, I’m not picky. It’s still too early to face one-on-one. Even with the help of allies, 8 vs 2?＞
“… Not to that extent. It’s a humanoid monster.”
＜I know you’re confident against a guy who looks like a human, but you have to think about the time constraints as well. If you go into battle, the poison will eventually spread. In your style, it must be so. So… take it.＞
“… … ?”
Then, all of a sudden, a parrot crawls into your field of vision.
The white beak had blue tail feathers, and even in broad daylight, the faint glimmer was particularly conspicuous.
＜Get it before you change your mind.＞
“What.”
＜You won’t know if you get it, you damn bastard.＞
It was.
[Achievement Achievement: The One Who Doesn’t Back down.]
[Reward: Acquisition of the ability ‘biological creation’.]
Soon the tail feathers will turn gray. Immediately after the window appeared in front of my eyes, a triumphant voice resounded in my head.
＜Did you see it? If you see it, come honor me, praise me, praise me. It’s the result of scratching the headless bitch’s outfit.＞
“… You did well.”
＜hehehe, since I have my enemy right in front of me, even the goddess of the moon has no choice but to overdo it. I’ve given you a higher ability, so I’ll have to live like a rat for a while, but that’s not what I know. Anyway, what are you doing? Not respecting this parrot.＞
The value of the goods received is not too much to scold for making a fuss.
Combining the existing ability [Three-Dimensional Recovery] and [Blood Flow Control] with the new ability [Generation of Life] gives you the highest recovery skill [Physical Recovery].
The exclusive skill possessed by some tankers would have restored my body to the extent that it was destroyed.
In addition to this, it was also great that the parrot’s face looked bad.
“… You seem overworked.”
＜If you spend money without an income, your balance will run out. The authority of the goddess is no different.＞
“… … .”
＜Don’t make a useless face, go now. I’ll be messing around a bit. I’ll check the timing for Venetus and Scorpio before sending them out. It would be a dog’s death if he joined now.＞
“okay.”
＜Ah, but watch out for the serpentine flames. Even that big human from earlier had the ‘body recovery’ skill.＞
Hesitate for a while.
The answer is replaced by the sound of footsteps moving forward.
[Physical Recovery] alone will be of great help, but it’s a technical build. In other words, from the point of view of the ‘technical system’, it is truly a huge advantage.
Being able to withstand the reaction of my specialized ability means that I can fight in a completely different way than before-
I was confident.
