Episode 127: Deception and Domination (7)
“That much? “The opponent’s strength?”
[We are trying to find weaknesses in as many cases as possible, but it is still impossible to destroy all of the opponent’s abilities.]
Lucy, who had easily captured the opponent alive and analyzed it, sent a report that it would be a bit difficult, which was unusual. We tried every possible way, but in the end, we couldn’t handle the infection and replication power of our opponent.
[I think I need to spend more time analyzing them or deal with them in a completely different way.]
“Compared to the ability to replicate, adapt, and mutate, did you say that the infectious power can be counteracted to what extent?”
Just as Lucy has various strengths, those who seem to have taken over the world also have various strengths. One of its strengths is its infectious power, which eats other cells and turns them into its own members, but Lucy said there is a way to suppress that.
[As long as a friendly soldier is alive, he or she can resist infection. Although you lose in terms of nutrient consumption, this method allows you to wage an all-out war on equal terms with your enemies.]
“Swarm of mutant zombies and quantity war.”
I sighed and scratched my head. Can you really win? Lucy was also confident in moving a large army, but she was in no position to put all her energy into this now.
[You can shatter the arrogance of enemies who are confident in their scale.]
“If wasting time would be more damaging, it would be better to fight.”
But Lucy decided it was better to go to war. If you completely stop breathing, those tough zombies will end up just being nothing more than a bunch of organic matter.
It’s not just our enemies who can eat us. We too can eat our enemies.
[Also, if you win this war and can fully absorb the enemy’s power, the cell warfare capabilities of your allies will also increase dramatically.]
Lucy had already unleashed her characteristic greed. Strong enemies and new powers that will make you stronger. They said there was no reason to refuse.
In this situation, I couldn’t stop Lucy’s actions.
[But it seems like it has a big impact there as well.]
“I can’t help it. “This is a kind of revolution.”
However, while Lucy was busy, she also checked my situation.
I smiled bitterly and nodded, looking at the people around me. As I said, the world around me is noisy right now.
* * *
“Magic Code is a revolution. A revolution that can be a clue to the victory of our humanity, which has never had an opponent before, over its worst adversaries!”
Association president Baek Seung-cheol preached the power and necessity of magic codes in front of important figures, including the president.
A few lines of magic code that were nothing special to Lucy became a real miracle here. In particular, it has become an essential skill for those who are giving up too much of their national interests due to war.
Although some people seemed to want to make greater profits by monopolizing the great technology, it was a meaningless desire at a time when the positions of power between the powerful awakened and the nation were gradually being reversed.
[You can see how unbalanced the situation there is by just being excited about that little thing. As expected, I have to pass on.]
“that’s right. But it’s true that it’s difficult right now.”
No matter how much Lucy, it’s impossible for her to stretch her strength this far right now. Now the priority is to conquer Ravizda, an unexpected world occupied by zombies.
In fact, Lucy has already prepared for the first war.
[Some of the troops that attacked the forest were deployed as is, and a new immune system that suppresses infection was transplanted to all troops.]
“Honestly, I think we’ll win if we pour out firepower.”
Lucy even mobilized a ship-type flying bell produced for combat. Although it is smaller than the transport Island Alpha, it is a gigantic creature that emits firepower from its large body that is incomparable to that of whales.
In addition, the number of troops crossing the ground has already exceeded 10,000 units. Numbers are numbers, but they seemed much stronger than their opponents in terms of firepower.
[The number of enemies spread throughout this world is unpredictable, but the estimated number of enemies in the currently identified base is approximately 200,000 regardless of their type. There are 30,000 friendly troops, so it is calculated as a sufficient ratio.]
Lucy, as usual, acted according to the formula and was confident in the results. Even at the event where the association demonstrated the magic code to the main characters and proved its power, I sat back and just looked at my phone and watched the scene where Lucy’s demon lord’s army collided with that huge army coming out of the fog.
“Are you a little surprised? “Even though the zombies are running amok, the person leading them seems rational.”
The first clash between the Demon King’s army and the zombie horde began with the powerful energy bombardment of the Demon King’s ship-type flying bell crossing the sky.
Those zombies, who had clearly defeated the dark elves who had been the dominant species of this land with their overwhelming numbers and destructive power, courageously rushed towards the demon king’s army even though they lost numerous troops in a single bombardment.
Normally, you would feel scared by that disgusting appearance.
However, Lucy’s demon lord army will be different from those they have faced so far.
The Demon Lord’s army, which ignored the infection as if it was a big deal and pushed forward to fight, was not affected at all by the ferocity and ferocity of the zombies.
[According to calculations, it seems impossible for the Corrupted World Tree, which is assumed to control the zombies, to deploy detailed tactics.]
It looked as if an army of robots and an army of zombies were fighting.
The Demon King’s army, which had become resistant to infection, ignored the zombies’ attacks and continued to kill and massacre them, and even though they knew it could not be done, they pushed the zombies out in numbers.
‘Are we going to win like this?’
The first war in the new world against its ruler. I thought maybe Lucy could defeat those horrible monsters more easily than I thought.
* * *
“These guys seem a bit ignorant.”
[It is evident that we have continued to win in only one way. Of course, it is questionable whether they would have put up a proper fight since most creatures before that could not overcome their infection power.]
Raon, who was fighting at the front, also thought that the tactics of the zombies who attacked blindly were poor. Lucy was able to raise her expected win rate to over 90%.
The power of the zombies could certainly make them the devil’s natural enemies, but when the devil’s army began to accept their inefficiency and use force to suppress them, that power faded.
Rather, the Demon King’s Army, a cold killing army that knows neither fear nor hesitation, pounced on the zombies’ weaknesses.
Unlike the residents of this world who could not fight properly due to fear of infection and variables, they were pushed back as they were hit head on with overwhelming force.
‘If this is the case, I don’t think there’s any need to invest excessively.’
Raon thought that at this level, Lucy would be able to fight with just her own nest built here without having to invest a large amount of resources.
“?!!”
However, the opponent was not pushed back like this either.
Raon, who had relaxed for a moment, was astonished to see the enemy swinging a sharp claw covered in blue flames at him.
“Hey, do these guys know how to use magic power? No, more like this!”
[It seems that the unique learning ability is applied simultaneously to each individual as well as the entire group.]
It was then that the balance of the battlefield, which had been progressing with a one-sided outcome, began to shift again. Until now, the Demon King’s army, centered on the higher-ranking species, had just attacked in a brute force and slaughtered the enemies with the power that radiated from their hearts.
At this time, Lucy judged that magical power was as good as non-existent for enemies without reason or intelligence. In fact, the dark elves who were once strong and intelligent were now just monsters screaming and twisting their mutated bodies.
With that alone, there was no problem taking over this world.
However, what revived their forgotten potential was their resistance to infection and their fight against the overwhelming Demon Lord’s army.
They imitated the appearance of the higher-ranking species of the Demon King’s army, who shoot and cut down multiple people with a single blow, reactivating the magical power sealed within them.
“There are too many people like this. “The balance collapses.”
Raon, who was now swinging his mutated hook foot with burning magical power and cutting down the attacking enemies, looked around the battlefield and was convinced that the atmosphere had already passed.
[Fatal error occurred due to insufficient data. Discard function expressions. All troops returned.]
Even the ship-type giant flying bell, which was spraying powerful energy bombardments everywhere, was attacked by many flying beasts, and when some of them attempted to attack by imitating her magic cannons, Lucy eventually pushed the soldiers back.
“This is absurd. “It is an enemy that becomes stronger the more you fight with it.”
An unexpected defeat. It was also a defeat where Lucy was completely pushed out by her opponent in terms of growth and evolution, which were the powers she was most proud of.
[…] … .]
Lucy, who was only thinking about efficient post-processing using the results, regardless of victory or defeat, was shocked more than she expected.
If nothing else, the biggest blow was that he was pushed aside by his enemies, who were growing rapidly like him, just like the demon lords he had faced so far.
[The enemy awakens the use of magical energy that was dormant during the battle with the allies and imitates the allies’ tactics and operations. [You have to fight against them without any further strategy exposure]
“Is that possible? The Demon King’s Army also has strength in numbers, but it is now at the level of an expeditionary force. On the other hand, enemies have taken over the entire world, and we don’t even know how many they have. “Is it possible to win in a battle of strength without superior skills and tactics?”
[It is calculated as not impossible.]
Lucy decided to fight in a different way. Raon lamented, but Lucy still had a card to play.

[With overwhelming mass and power.]
Lucy changed her strategy. If you provide an opportunity to awaken your opponent the more you use magical power, you can press and hold them with force even without using magical power.
An ultra-giant behemoth with a body length of tens of meters and a weight of thousands of tons, produced in a forest nest.
In addition, the main troops were replaced with heavy beast-type soldiers or those with large bases such as trolls.
‘It’s terrible. ‘No matter what we did, we couldn’t win.’
Enemies are enemies, but Raon is also silent about the abilities of the Demon King’s army.
A fast, massive and intense war between two colonies with similar powers of adaptation and evolution.
For Raon, who still had a stronger identity as an elf, it was a type of war that he could not have dared to imagine even during the great war when he fought alongside humans and demons.
Although he didn’t know what the immediate outcome would be, he was confident that Lucy’s power was already stronger than the entire human world and the demon world combined. Because they would not be able to change and adapt so quickly and flexibly.
