244 – Warriors of Barathen (6)
“All-out war is too dangerous.”
Enrichten shook his head at my suggestion to lead the war quickly.
In general, all-out war is a form of total war in which all forces are fought.
Unlike local warfare or guerrilla warfare, it is a battle in which all troops are poured, and as such, if the forces between each other are not uniform, the momentum is likely to tilt to one side.
“Now they’ve become a goddamn enemy, but Calak has been known for being tough in the clan since before. The combat power is also very good, and the number of troops is overwhelming.”
To engage in an all-out war, they are pushed back in a battle of numbers.
Thirteen warriors of Barathen were seated here.
On the other hand, I heard from Enrichten that there are 22 warriors in Calak.
Among them, Duke, who led the scouting unit, died, so 21 people.
The number of awakened Lycan warriors was absolutely pushed back, and the number of unawakened Lycans and trained Jurgen was also greatly lacking.
The reason why the other warriors of Barathen were dispatched one by one to the borderline was to block such an unfavorable frontline with local warfare as much as possible.
But I didn’t give up and persuaded him.
“There is a limit to search battles and local battles. Unless you find a clever trick to cut down on your opponent, you’re bound to face an all-out war someday. In particular, the land here is especially barren, so it is difficult to get help from geographical features.”
And that’s not all.
The killing of Duke, an awakened Lycan warrior.
With this turning point, the Calak camp will come out more aggressively.
They wouldn’t be stupid enough to lose their main power source and stay still.
“hmm… .”
For some reasonable reason, Enrichten puts on a troubled face.
Many of the warriors around them nodded as if they agreed with this statement.
I hit the wedge I had prepared at this point.
“And crucially, we have the means to strengthen our warriors.”
“A means of reinforcement? What is it?”
“I will use armor.”
“Armor… ?”
Enrichten’s voice becomes questionable at the unfamiliar word.
So did the other Lycan warriors who watched our conversation with interest.
Since they had never fought with any equipment before, my suggestion to ‘use armor’ out of the blue couldn’t help but sound strange.
“Even if Enrichten and the other warriors could see it with their own eyes… It’s hard to say that our raid’s combat strength is overwhelmingly strong. Although it is certainly helpful in this war, it is not strong enough to completely reverse the unfavorable war situation.”
It’s a natural story.
Most of the awakened Lycan warriors have the power to be judged as S-class monsters, and in general, S-class monsters are monsters that can be hunted only by A-class and B-class holders in raid units.
The fact that Jinwoo Park and I were able to easily kill the Duke of Calak was…
It was because of the fact that he used a ‘silver weapon’ that showed strong power against the Lycans, that the opponent was a wizard-type Lycan, and that he fed the full power [Axel Piercing] as a preemptive attack.
In other words, it means that each of our 32 members is not at the level of awakened warriors.
“Nevertheless, the reason why we were able to defeat the Lycan warriors was the division of roles according to their abilities. And it was all thanks to the use of the right equipment for each individual.”
At the same time, I took out two items from my magic bag.
One is an item called [Sturdy Iron Gate].
The other is plain iron armor.
“This iron gate is a special item that has its own durability value. It only has a durability value of 50.”
Sometimes actions bring more understanding than explanations.
I didn’t say much and left the [hard iron gate] on one side and the [hard iron gate] on the other side as if it were armor.
Then, with strength in his right hand, he struck it down once more.
bang! bang!
Strength level of 90.
A [Martial Arts Master] rune that supports martial arts.
When the holder’s fist struck, the [hard iron gate] was distorted beyond recognition.
but.
“As you can see, this iron gate was protected much more reliably than a normal iron gate. As such, wearing protective gear exerts great power in defense during battle. Not only physical force, but especially if a magical attack is applied.”
An intuitive experiment demonstrating the defensive power of protective equipment.
I said as I looked around the warriors of Barathen who seemed quite surprised by that.
“Therefore, in this war, I would like to provide custom armor for Barathen’s warriors.”
“Custom Armor… ?”
“yes.”
I rob the magic bag I brought in advance through a special agent, and pour out the items on the table.
Kang-Kagang-
Degur-.
An enormous amount of crafting equipment, no one knows how many dozens or even hundreds of pieces.
Unusually, these devices…
It wasn’t equipment that meets the standards of ordinary holders, but rather a very wide and large equipment.
Like equipment tailored for Lycans to wear.
‘Because of this, I put all my money into it.’
In the meantime, Choi Yu-min, Lee Hyeon-ho, and many other blacksmith-type holders have made preparations for the ＜City of Excommunicated Wolves＞ dungeon.
It was not only the ‘silver weapon’, but also included the current Lycan-specific armor.
Since the number exceeded 100 units, no matter how normal the item was, the money was bound to be broken tremendously.
“This is all… Jaehyun Do. Are you really just giving us all this?”
Is that why?
To Enrichten, who was startled by the sight in front of him and asked me…
A deep smile appeared on my face.
“It can’t be. Let’s discuss how we can reasonably afford these equipment to our warriors.”
war is war.
Business is business.
Free payment was never in my dictionary.

“… … .”
Camilla Flores opened her mouth in a daze at the unconventional sight unfolding before her eyes.
Sales of armor against werewolves.
I can’t believe they do this nonsense, they’re even hitting the price right.
Almost 4-5 times the original price.
The ignorant warriors of Barathen accepted the price.
Since it was a place where werewolves lived, of course there was no currency, so they received the corresponding magic stones, by-products, and special items in the form of barter.
“Jinwoo.”
“… uh, huh?”
Camilla called her best man in the raid.
Park Jin-Woo.
Holder, whom I met for the first time after coming to Korea as an exchange student.
He was the deputy chief of engineering in this raid, and he was the closest person to Jaehyun Do, the chief of engineering.
“Captain. Something, awful.”
“… … .”
When Camilla’s poor Korean language came through, Park Jin-woo unconsciously nodded.
His friend…
It shows the business skills as much as it is really terrible.
It was ironic that all the Lycans who had purchased the armor had satisfied faces.
But it was also a reward for the investment.
The information that werewolves appear and the word ‘Baraten camp’.
With that alone, he guessed a camp battle between monsters, and prepared exclusive armor in preparation for it.
Do you have the ability to see the future?
It was an investment that was difficult to implement unless you had the usual courage to the extent that it made you think of such absurdity.
“He is a smart boy. also has the ability It doesn’t deviate from the direction of the raid, and it works without obstruction. Maybe that’s why this attack is continuing successfully.”
That’s why Park Jin-woo respected his friend.
There was not a single thing that Do Jae-hyeon lacked in leading this raid.
Ability to carry out planned operations without problems.
Leadership unshakable by any variable.
Even all the engineering crew members who were watching were stained with astonishment…
Even the overwhelming force as a holder individual.
He was showing everything he could show as an engineering chief.
A makeshift raiding party of 21-year-old academy students?
Will I be able to do it well?
The doubts of the press and holders, who had been so suspicious, were clearly proved with their skills.
Thanks to that, the raid, which had a slightly distracted atmosphere, also united around him and now boasted a strong teamwork.
“What Jinwoo praises. See you first.”
Camilla looks at Park Jin-woo curiously.

Just kidding every day, saying, “That bastard is a cheater! He was lamenting, “Where do you look at that and you’re an assassin?”
It was amazing to see such sincere recognition.
“Oh, was it? Well, I have to admit what I have to admit. Even though he looks lighthearted on the outside, he acts serious when leading people. Not to mention skills.”
I’ve seen him up close…
It was Park Jin-woo who knew how to acknowledge him more than anyone else.
And Camilla nodded slowly at that appearance.
“… Awesome.”
“huh? Ah ha ha Isn’t Jaehyun a bit cool? Skills, looks-”
Park Jin-woo, who was embarrassed and spoke a little faster.
At that, Camilla shakes her head.
“Jinwu.”
“… uh?”
“Jinwoo is cool. Knowing how to acknowledge and respect. And Jinwoo has the ability too. Jinwoo is smart too.”
“… … .”
A relay of compliments pouring in in an instant.
For Park Jin-woo, who listened to Camilla’s words with all his nerves, he was not immune to these sudden compliments.

Jinwoo is cool
From nob le mt l dot com
Jinwoo is cool… .
Those words echoed through Park Jin-woo’s head.
The small fire in my heart was burning…
It felt like an active volcano erupting.
And I thought quietly.
‘… Am I really smart?’
Park Jin-woo wanted to believe everything Camilla said.
Sorry bro, if you were really smart, you won’t gave up on the written exam
No, she just said that to make you feel good. You aren’t actually smart my guy 😭🗿
