Casino Heist(4)
When he and Sylvia escaped the casino, Bicon, who had been waiting in advance, ran out of the alley.
I raced to the dorm while riding on a guy who seemed a little more willing than usual.
In a nearby alley, the guards and napping members who summoned the Wyverns greeted us.
It was as if he had brought all the available ones, a much larger transport plane than the last time.
After getting the Summoner’s Book back from the handmaiden and reconnecting the link, Medusha and Laurier went into the book with a smirk.
There’s room in the garden… but it’s unavoidable to increase the speed even a little.
Even Letty wore a reins while transformed into a Wyvern.
“Master, you’ve been well!”
“Beep…”
“Hey, aren’t you a mandarin cake right now?”
The Wyverns, who were watching Letty with a slightly strange expression, couldn’t resist the commander’s urging and started flapping their wings.
It may seem like we’re leaving late, so it might seem at a disadvantage… Russell’s side has to pick up his teammates as well.
Moreover, most of the undead summons are weaker in many ways than when they were alive. That is, it is slow.
Instead, it has the advantage of not getting tired, but you can finish it before that.
“The pursuit begins! Where is Russell?”
“Currently moving northwest! Oh, a few are heading southeast… towards our country!”
“Are you going to divide the number of people here?”
“One of them is a bucket. Which team includes Russell?”
“It’s northwest!”
Thanks to the deployment of reconnaissance summons in advance, I was able to clearly understand their movements, but something unexpected happened.
The commander of the watchtower carefully contemplates while raising the altitude.
I followed him and fell in thought.
It is difficult to cross the sea carrying heavy cargo like jewels stolen from a casino.
In addition, if you are caught by border guards or guards along the way, you will continue to be tracked.
Russell is part of the former’s team, so of course there is a high probability that the former is real.
I wouldn’t entrust such an important thing to subordinates.
With a conclusion similar to mine, the watchman gave the Wyverns an order.
“To the northwest!”
“Easy profit!”
“Captain, if there is a jewel in the southeast…”
“The rebel hideout is in the northwest! Stealing the jewel doesn’t end there. To summon the Night King, a large-scale summoning ceremony is required. So, you can’t escape to a place where there is no foundation.”
A supervisor who enforces his own logic.
It seems that the nickname of the black dragon the rebels found is the king of the night.
Persia, who was curled up around my neck, said a word without fail.
“I’m not even the main character of some kind of energy advertisement…”
Thanks to his jokes, I regained some leeway, and I tried to keep my balance in the transport plane swaying in the wind, but I gave up before long.
Sylvia, who was behind me, tries to hold me, but the handmaiden takes her role, so she turns around and sits down with an uncomfortable expression.
The capital, which had been filled with fire and smoke and noise due to the explosion of the royal palace, quickly moved away, and Einclad’s characteristic rugged mountains appeared.
If Russell and the rebels were hiding there, it would be a real mess for Einclad.
Fortunately, we had a rough idea of the location of the hideout.
The remarkably low speed of the undead griffon transport also aided in tracking.
Hiding in the clouds and avoiding their eyes, we soon entered an unknown canyon.
The sharp peaks are lined up like a fortress wall, and the inside is quite wide.
Watching the undead griffons slowly land, the watchman hurriedly said:
“Okay, let’s go. They may try to move inside the base, so hurry up. The support team starts obstructing work from outside.”
“Letty!”
I untied the reins that connected him and the transport plane and started descending with the vassals.
The wind pierces through the clothes.
I was dizzy at the dizzying speed, but I persevered with the determination to put an end to Russell.
After landing easily by borrowing the power of the summons, immediately re-summon Medusha and Laurier.
The rebels who were standing guard at the post near the garrison were startled and attempted a counterattack.
“Uh huh! Chase…”
“It’s not Einclad! Dracorda!”
“Gaze of Petrification!”
Medusha’s attack started the battle and looked around.
The garrison, which was hidden in the fog, was quite authentic.
This may be enough for long-distance space movement.
The guards, who thought the same as me, attacked without hesitation, and from above, the support fire of the napping was pouring out.
The rebels, drunk with the joy of victory, were swept away in an instant.
“Bah, the defensive summoning circles… Kuck!”
“I’m afraid they’ll come after me overseas. How far are you going to torture us!”
“Louise, take a look. We’re a family.”
Russell, who smiled bitterly and drew his sword, walked straight toward me and shuddered.
I’m not really saying that kind of thing… it’s probably just a gimmick to excite me.
Unfortunately, his feat was very successful.
I muttered whatever came out of my mouth to cool off even a little bit of my anger.
“You know what happens when you turn your family upside down?”
“… Family?”
“Yeah, family!”
“Good luck Louise!”
Hearing the praise that makes him feel embarrassed for some reason, he activates the delayed spell.
At the same time, he pulled out the Black Dragon’s Great Bow and started firing.
Russell left it to the handmaiden, and then aimed at his comrades first.
Russell’s expression became anxious as he watched his enemies fall one by one.
“Sylvia, don’t fall away from your master.”
“yes!”
“Move!”
Chaeeng!
The two swords clash violently with an annoying cry.
In the midst of a dizzying fight, the fragments of the Auror were scattered in a dazzling light.
Neither allies nor enemies can approach them in a hurry.
Thanks to this, we were able to easily reduce the number of enemy troops.
It’s the opponent’s home ground, so it’s equipped with various defenses, but… The rebels have lost a lot of power due to several defeats.
Besides, since we used up magical power in the previous operation, there was no way it could be our opponent who attacked with determination.
‘Even the Demon Lord hasn’t come out yet, but it’s like this…’
“Isn’t it a little bit too open-minded in front of the Dimensional Watch?”
I agreed with him and followed the guard leader in a one-sided battle.
He found the summoning camp on the side of the rebel garrison and destroyed it at once.
Thanks to this, it completely blocked the possibility of the rebels retreating.
Realizing that the escape route was blocked, the men resisted with all their might, but they could not reverse the inclined charter.
Some of them took their own lives for fear of being caught.
Considering my experience in the royal dungeon, I can’t call it stupid at all.
Russell, who had become two storms with the handmaiden, took a moment to catch his breath and frowned.
Avoid the support fire of Medusha and Laurie and move to the rear.
I tried to restore magic power by stealing the link, but it was impossible because I was waiting in advance.
Since the victory has already been solidified, I plan to throw away all greed and focus on his control.
“Ugh…”
“It’s already wrong. Everyone surrender quietly!”
While the commander of the guard was shouting in a loud voice, Russell unexpectedly activated his summoning skill.
As if it had been prepared in advance like the summoned circle destroyed before, the completion of the ritual was abnormally fast.
The crew, who had missed him several times so far, quickly used the repatriation technique… Unfortunately, the target of the summoning technique wasn’t Russell himself.
He spread the ceremony over his head and recovered his smile with difficulty.
“It doesn’t get caught well!”
“Come on, self-destruct?”
“no!”
A hemispherical form of magic shot into the sky covered the rebel’s garrison.
Medusha, who expected the enemy to appear, made a snake to build a barrier, but to no avail.
It was only after I discovered that the scenery around me was rapidly changing, I guessed the true nature of the ceremony.
“This…”
“It’s a unique barrier.”
Silvia, ignoring Russell’s nonsense, clings to me.
The handmaiden also tried to come, but it was late due to the distance.
A method of summoning a whole part of another dimension like the northern ice and snow hell.
Of course, it is realistically impossible to set it up permanently like that.
However, depending on the characteristics of the summoned dimension, it can be a sufficiently threatening technology.
‘What if this dimension steals everyone’s links like the demon realm?’
While the allies panic because they don’t know what’s going to happen.
The rebels look as if they are alive now.
Reluctantly, I asked the Demon King for help.
‘Hey, I’m sorry every time…’
“Not required.”
‘yes?’
It’s been a while since I was embarrassed by the unfamiliar rejection.
The magic that covered the garrison in a hemispherical shape began to collapse quickly.
The summoning circle that covered the night sky shattered and fell like rain, and the scenery of the night sky returned to its original state.
“What, what? Why all of a sudden…”
Could it be that the operation failed?
The difficulty will be high enough that it will be difficult to find a similar opponent. So, there are plenty of possibilities, but…
It’s hard to believe that Russell made a mistake at this crucial moment.
A familiar old man fell from the skies of the garrison as we held on to our unexpected luck.
As he stroked his white beard, he jumped over the space and touched the ground, sighing.
“I don’t remember teaching you to use such unfinished technology in practice?”
“Chief? When are we here…”
“It’s a pan-guk that even mobilized your students, so there’s no way I can play taengja-taengja.”
The great teacher of the Royal Magnus Academy sighed once more as if he was sorry that he could not do it.
Apparently, Eshas stir-fried the dean and sent him here.
As of today, I was really grateful for the dictatorship of the guardian dragon of the kingdom.
The dean with a strong back is facing Russell, and the handmaiden is also holding a dagger.
A separate wing of the guard brought a glass case containing reagents.
It was a unit whose only goal was to secure it during the melee.
“Captain, here…”
“Huh? Wait a minute!”
Feeling a sense of incongruity with the contents of the case, I snatched it up with a hopeful feeling.
weird.
Contrary to how many times I’ve seen it in the casino, this time it doesn’t seem to absorb light.
It is elaborately well-crafted, but not real.
“Hey, this…”
“Suck!”
When Sylvia, who was sitting next to him, put a dagger, the case shattered and the contents rolled out.
it’s fake too
Since the real case has dozens of protective spells, it is impossible to break it with a single dagger.
Realizing the same facts as us, the watchman looks at Russell with a blank expression on his face.
“When did you change this…”
“Two heads. The real thing has already been stolen for a long time.”
Russell, who was bleeding as a side effect of the spell’s failure, muttered as if he was in a bad mood.
I remembered the moment I met him in the casino.
‘no way!’
Looking back now, Russell seems to have already figured out who I was then.
But then, why didn’t you pretend to know?
No, if you think about it, it was natural to pretend that you didn’t know.
If you attack us right away there, it will only increase the burdensome enemies.
The gnome immediately noticed Essha and our purpose and proceeded with the operation.
Originally, I was thinking of entrusting the fake to the Yangdong troops heading southeast, but…
Found me and changed plans on the fly.
As soon as they escaped from the roof of the casino, the real and fake were swapped.
At that time, we were riding a bicon and joining the main unit, so we missed the scene.
The guy who was happily appreciating my bewildered face was crazy.
But as if he didn’t like it, a cold voice cut off his laughter.
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
“You idiot. It’s too early to rejoice.”
A pure white giant appeared as he stopped talking vigorously.
The figure reflected in the faint moonlight slowly descended towards us.
In fact, if you become a dragon, you can fly using magic instead of aerodynamics…
The flapping of its wings, which seems to be reluctant because of courtesy to the sky, is slow and elegant.
“Hey, Eshasu!”
“It’s ridiculous! His name is a guardian dragon, but he came directly after leaving the capital!”
“Because of someone somewhere, I realized that prevention is important.”
Enjoying the shocking reaction of the rebels, Eshas glances at the handmaiden.
Before we could respond, Russell cried out in a convulsive voice.
“Gee, it’s already too late to pursue it now! We’re all going to die here, but my comrades have already hid in Dracor with the real thing…”
“Your companions. These things?”
Baekryong, who landed lightly using only his hind legs, lightly tossed the present he was holding on his right foreleg.
It is none other than the head of a person that rolls over the dirt floor.
Howard’s eyes widen and the faces of the rebels are filled with fear.
Although there is no blood, it was neatly stuffed because of the loss of life.
“Of course, we have secured the reagents safely. Your undeserved ambition ends here.”
Then, as she spread her left front paw, the ambient light was noticeably lowered.
That jewel is unmistakably genuine.
Looking at the heads of his teammates, Russell laughed in despair and jumped in despair.
“Hey, this bastard!!”
Quang!
In the next moment, Eshas’ long tail lightly blown away the body.
