Chapter 6: Invasion! Towards the Slime's Lair

Fortress of the Undead Southwest - Strategy Room

"Alice is back, Uncle Bone, and the Grandpa Five!"

As the iron door weighing hundreds of pounds was ruthlessly pushed open, the werewolf Lori Alice, with her trademark carefree and pure smile, just jumped towards the corner of the room. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Throwing the mysterious creature on her shoulder into the corner of the conference room, the werewolf Lori wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead.

With an intoxicated expression, Alice looked contentedly at the ferocious monster, which was about five times her size. Probably thinking about where it would be better to start eating, which is extremely inconsistent with her Lori identity.

After being stunned for a short time, she nodded to herself, smiling contentedly as a foodie.

After clapping her hands, Alice finally trotted neatly to her place and sat down quietly.

Two seconds later, there was an eerie silence in the room again......

Judging by the wolf-headed monster's rolled eyes, I think it probably thought it was dead or something.

"Buzz...", "Buzz Buzz...", "Buzz Buzz", "Buzz".

The fly that landed on my forehead was swatted to death by the skull claw. I also took advantage of the moment to mourn for a few seconds for its meaningless life.

"I said. Didn't anyone notice that something seemed wrong?"

After hearing my question, the six-member group looked at each other tacitly.

After confirming from the other person's eyes that their thoughts were similar, they turned to me suspiciously, and shook their heads casually.

"So... That's it, isn't this a novice village?Why hasn't anyone come to do something for so long?!Although I don't want to recall... But we've been sitting here in a daze for almost a month!!".

I slapped the table and angrily pointed at the high-tech light screen in the center of the round table.

In a picture made up of magical ores that should not appear in a different world behind the tech tree, read as a record crystal, but written as a monitor. Aside from the occasional passing rat and a ruined castle, there is nothing else.

That's right, this picture has been going on for almost a month.

And during this month, except for Alice's occasional need to go out to find rations, my daily routine with the miscellaneous five is almost just sitting here drinking the northwest wind, chattering, and leisurely eating dust?!!

Although our living conditions are almost none, these times are only a nap for the undead.

But what I didn't even expect was that after so many bizarre events, I was also assimilated into... The kind of grandfather-type talent who can be in a daze for up to a month in the same picture.

"Lord Eshuin, this is probably because of the nearby Lords of Death... Well.. Recently, they have been stepping up their efforts to clear out the adventurers in their own territory, and usually, this place (the fortress of the undead) is very lively. ”

Seeing the discontent in my words, Dark Wizard Armor said proudly.

But he didn't think about how sad it would be for the fortress of the King of the Undead to be used as a playground by adventurers....

"Ahh

I slapped the round table in the conference room in anger and scolded: "These bastards have been quiet for hundreds of years, and when I was just about to achieve great things less than a month, they actually jointly blocked all customers?!"

Properly condolences to the families of the former fortress bosses who robbed me of my precious resources and wanted to kill me completely.

Even so, this is actually just a lip service, and the anger in my heart is still difficult to quell.

Well, now I can't even go the second way, although I usually complain about the Book of the Dead, but she really doesn't have to say anything as a mentor. I've been exposed to magic for hundreds of years, and if nothing else, I can at least summon skeleton magic or something.

But magic isn't magic!

Even if this is a different world that doesn't like to reason with you, it is bizarre and real in some ways. Even if I want to lead piles of skeletons into battle and become Skeletron, I need to have at least a slightly complete skeleton!

Skeletons!Skeletons!No skeletons, summon hairy skeletons!Summons air soldiers!Die, bastards!

Within a dozen kilometers near the glorious fortress of the undead, you can't even find a complete skeleton! Can you believe it?!! those bastards can leave, and they have to turn the skeletons into skeletons and circle them into cannon fodder, is this forcing me to fight your territory?!

And Alice's ration this month has become the mount of Skeleton Soldier A and B......

"Now for an emergency meeting! The situation is dire. ”

I slapped the round table in the conference room and said it again.

I thought that having the title of 'Demon King Candidate' would sound like an epic boss. My future skeleton life will be smooth sailing, pointing to where to fight, and easily and freely walking to the peak of life.

But after actually coming to another world, I found that there was still something wrong with where I was born.

Actually, I think it's better to choose a cemetery in an unknown town. That's what the other traversers do, at least there, where I can sneak up as a necromancer instead of eating dust here.

Even one day, there is a high chance that you will face the crowd that shouts, "O Holy Light, give me strength!"

And then I didn't dare to go it alone, so I formed a group, which is the risk of the brain-dead paladin who likes to form a group and rushes up to trouble me with madness. I also think it's more affordable than waiting for the hapless adventurers to come to your door in a place where birds don't poop.

"We must take the initiative! Dark Wizard Armor, provide information on the forces around the Undead Keep!"

After calming down, I sat down in the chief's seat again.

Crossing his hands, he then covered the bottom half of my skull, and made a classic thinking pose of a certain commander surnamed Aki. This is the standard flag for trying to accomplish something strategically important, and it is said that if you do so, your success rate will increase by 20%.

"Okay, Lord Eschuin, please look here."

The Dark Wizard Armor was the number one leader before I arrived, and it had been less than half a minute before I gave the order before he stood up calmly and smiled with mysterious confidence.

As if he had been prepared, he took out the novice adventurer's map from behind him so neatly.

Then he floated to the middle of the round table and spread out the map. Just holding the baton I ordered the skeleton armor to make out of twigs, I kept drawing circles on it.

"Oh~!, very reliable, well done, Dark Wizard Armor!".

"Thank you for the compliment, Lord Esthein. Ahem, now, the area around the Undead Fortress is surrounded by the forces of several rulers of the original Undead Fortress... They are: Her Royal Highness Giseli, the Banshee King, Duke Reinhardt, Grand Duke of Spiders, and General Abraham, the leader of the Death Knights.

After a pause, the Dark Wizard Armor circled the sphere of influence of the Death Lords, and went on to add:

"At the moment, if you don't consider Lord Eshuin's combat effectiveness. With all the combat power of the entire Undead Fortress, you can barely reach the borders of these three adults' spheres of influence! If you are lucky, you should not be completely wiped out by the wandering undead."

Feelings even go out of their own territory and risk being wiped out!!

It turns out that we are not the lords of this territory at all, at best, we are just bandits entrenched near this wasteland, and what is even worse is that there are some evil forces in the vicinity who are keen on black and black, and they can't even run away......

Since it's so miserable, then don't pretend to be so dragged!

"Isn't there a place where we can attack now?! Remember, don't count me in the calculation of combat effectiveness. ”

Helplessly covering my forehead, I couldn't even speak clearly, and I felt a pain in my brain.

Hehe, it's a desperate start, and I'm still underestimating it. The situation is so desperate that even if I can't see it, I can feel that the soul fire in my eyes is probably crumbling.

In order not to let the Dark Wizard Armor misestimate my combat power and give away my head, I have to give a friendly reminder.

Otherwise, according to his impression that basically all demon king candidates can fight gods, our current combat power. Actually, it's perfect, it should be pushed over horizontally, right?

If it doesn't work, I'm thinking of finding another way. When the time comes, let the miscellaneous five stay and clean up, and let Alice take me... No, I ran away with Alice... Tactical transfer tried.

First find a chance to pass through the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and then find a random place where the human forces and the demon forces are fighting to pick up the corpses.

While witnessing the civil war of those idiots, collect intelligence by the way, and slowly accumulate strength...... Hmph, Skeletron, I'm done!!

Just when I was immersed in my own fantasies, the dark wizard scratched his head in distress and said with some uncertainty: "Actually... It seems like... It's not for nothing?"

"Is there any? Pregnant.. There it is, Lord Eshuin! ”

After a few minutes of searching the map in agony, the Dark Wizard Armor said ecstatically.

Holding the baton somewhere on the novice map, he looked at me excitedly. According to my preliminary estimates, it should be somewhere seven or eight kilometers away from the fortress of the undead.

"According to what Skeleton Soldier B saw when he got lost in Autumn Wind decades ago, this location must have been built into a lair by Queen Slime from an unknown source. If it's just a slime lair, our combat power should barely be able to eat it!!"

As a result, the prophecy actually came true, and my first battle in another world was really the lair of the invading slime?!!

Well.. But what does it mean to fight the autumn wind, do the undead also need to fight the autumn wind? Forget it, don't get tangled, it's okay, the slime is the slime, it's better to have something to do, it's better than waiting like a headless fly.

"So what's in it for us to lay it?"

I asked thoughtfully about the Dark Wizard Armor, if it is reasonable, we can be regarded as a force group in the Demon Realm, since the ultimate goal is to dominate the Demon Realm, then it is natural to start from the strategic intent.

Although I didn't go to a military academy or anything, I still played strategy games at this level.

Even if you don't reach the level of a world champion, collecting resources is a basic requirement. And the slime... This kind of thing, no matter how you look at it, there should be no corpse to speak of, well... There's no way there's a corpse.

If there is no corpse, then there is no skeleton, and if there is no skeleton, there will be no new combat strength supplement, no new combat strength supplement, so why should we still risk the regimental annihilation to forcibly demolish the hometown where others have lived for decades?

"Nothing good! Lord Ashin, it's just that he has nothing to do when he is full. ”

Well... The Dark Wizard Armor's sincere answer made me feel a little overwhelmed.

How can you be so realistic, so honest doesn't seem like it's right? Can't you make it up, like there might be the remains of other adventurers in that slime lair, or unknown treasure, or something?

I was so looking forward to doing something, but you put out your enthusiasm with a word, which made me a little embarrassed.

"Okay, decided, let's go and eat to our heart's content.. No, we're going to attack the slime's lair!Everyone, come here!Bring your guys, we're going to demolish!!"

After thirty seconds of thought, I nodded to myself.

After a month's rest (in a daze, actually), I was ready to take the six-member group to do something. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and to rule the Demon Realm, let's start by ruling the slime.

And the reason for my decision was not that I really wanted to get something out of this aggression.

Sometimes I don't need a reason to do things, it's just that I'm just bored.

Sure enough, although dull and dull seems to be a common disease of the undead. But after hearing my order, the miscellaneous five-person team was also very cooperative, without the slightest drag, and carried out the obedience and efficiency of the undead clan as always.

Skeleton soldiers A and B didn't know where to find two broken swords and a small wooden shield, and changed their equipment with ease. With just a few antique-level equipment, the two skeletons were transformed from miscellaneous guards to combatants. The dark wizard A, B, and C took out a few magic sticks from his sleeve and floated in the air with a ghostly atmosphere.

It's not bad, it's a bit of a deterrent, not too cold......

Just as I was thinking this, I saw Alice looking at the gorgeous transformation of the Miscellaneous Five in confusion, staring at me with anxiety on her face, as if she had something to say to me.

"Do you have any questions? Alice-san."

I'm a little strange, it stands to reason that she's the highest combat power here.

It's just a slime, and it should be with a relaxed attitude of abusing newcomers. But I don't know why, it seems that she has been like this since just now, and it seems that she is the most nervous.

"Uncle Esthein... I don't have any equipment, what should I do if I can't bring the guy......"

I'm just talking... Actually, it's called a mood particle, but she still takes her feelings seriously......

Alice deserves to be a well-known Lori in the Fortress of the Undead, but she looked at me with worried eyes, put her paws behind her back, and bowed her head in self-reproach, looking completely ashamed.

Seeing such a well-behaved Alice, I also wanted to take out some artifact-level equipment, and then give it to her casually to show my concern for Alice. But alas, I was so poor that I had a clean shoulder.

In desperation, looking around, it seems that there are no raw materials that can be used to make weapons.

In desperation, I had no choice but to pick up the beginner's map and use my magic to cut it into a claw. With what he thinks is very gentle, he handed it to Alice, and he couldn't give anything else, but there was still kraft paper.

"Here you go, Alice, take it as a souvenir."

"Uncle Bone... Thank you!I like you the most~!!"

I nodded, baring my white teeth and smiling slightly, enjoying the werewolf Lori's words of gratitude.

Young people are easy to be satisfied, worthy of being in a different world, and can still find such a pure little Lori. Otherwise, where would I still be able to find such a little Lori that can be bought with kraft paper.

The pale blue soul fire in my eyes burned more and more, and I said in high spirits:

"Now, my soldiers, let the living beings experience the fear of death! Invade the slime's lair!!"

“....”

“.......”

"Lord Esthein... In fact.. You tore up the map......"

The voice of the Dark Wizard Armor was a little harsh, but it still pierced my heart.
