Chương 88: Interlude 9:"Preparation for the Annihilation of Sacris"

[Location: Edel Royal Palace] Once again, in the Royal Palace of Edel. Having wiped Capital Dandama off the face of the earth without a trace, Tor Guief was in a truly delightful mood, laughing loudly like a madman. Only his laughter echoed repeatedly in the empty Throne Room. To finally be rid of the Capital, which had been a thorn in his side, was a supreme joy for him. After savoring the afterglow for a while, he decided to get started on the next task.

He slowly stood up from the throne and headed to a certain place. Leaving the Throne Room, he took the elevator on the side to the first basement level. He entered the [Granselnoun] boarding area. [Granselnoun] refers to a four-seater sky lift that floats with anti-gravity magic. The body, based on white with red lines, is of Royal Palace specifications. Boarding it, he moves through a transparent tube. It makes no sound at all when moving, gliding forward smoothly.

Even with no one around, the beautiful cityscape is automatically lit up at night. Tor, who had once lived here, gazed at that scenery with nostalgia. Eventually, the place he arrived at was the Weapon Hangar, the pride of Edel. It had a mechanical appearance typical of a factory, and unlike many buildings in this town, it was box-shaped. Entering and proceeding to the back, he soon arrived at the desired location. Weapons called Magic Machine Soldiers were lined up in a straight line.

Automatic maintenance has already been completed, and they are ready to activate. This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. The number is actually 3, 000. Thinking that these are all servants loyal to him, he couldn't stop laughing inside. He ran his gaze left and right happily, enjoying the orderly arrangement of them before they started moving. After that, he pressed the switch as if putting on airs, and activated them.

Unlike the Magic Soldiers that use corpses, they cannot perform flexible actions. But above all, they are faithful to simple orders, and because they are made entirely of magic metal, they have high magic resistance. Tor decides to assign about 300 of them to guard the town. He intended to deploy the remaining 2, 700 to overrun Sacris. He ordered the 300 to scatter throughout the city for guard duty, and the 2, 700 to gather and head to a certain place outside.

He also left the Weapon Hangar with the Machine Soldiers and headed to the Magical Creature Hangar right next to it. Inside were the huge boar-type herbivore Rhinos and the large tiger-type carnivore Likelger. 500 of each. They have already been powerfully controlled by Edel's authentic brainwashing magic. They had turned into servants who obediently listen only to what Tor says. He ordered the 1, 000 beasts to head to the certain place outside as well. He himself also heads there.

2, 700 Machine Soldiers and 1, 000 Beasts were already waiting at that place—on top of the huge outdoor transfer device (Teleporter). All that's left is to activate the device remotely. They are set to be sent arbitrarily to a suitable position directly below Edel. Since he has ordered them to kill all humans except him and Clam, they will probably go on a rampage as soon as they land on the ground. For now, preparations are complete, Tor floats a wicked smile.

There are many other amazing weapons and magical creatures, but he thought he would deploy them after seeing how things go. Although they can be produced later, now that it has just been revived, there are only existing weapons. It is a bit wasteful to use them just to crush one town.

"You don't need a sword to crack a Falmo nut," as the proverb says. He nodded while stroking his chin. Having finished a job, he returned to the Throne Room and decided to get some sleep. He hadn't slept for a long time either. When he wakes up next. Imagining the overwhelming military force overrunning Sacris, he gloated. That's right. Since I'm here, let's admire the beautiful night view before sleeping. There is no need to move from this place.

When he switched on the crystal monitor again, a beautiful starry sky and a blue moon were projected there. Umu. A truly beautiful moon. It will be a full moon tomorrow. After crushing Sacris, maybe I'll have a celebratory drink with the night view in the background. Thinking such things carefree, he does not realize. That the world he intends to rule is about to be destroyed by that very moon right now. Why? Because on the monitor— a moon of exactly the same size as usual was projected.
