Chapter 228: Mission Type, Complex (8) (1)

Bang! Bang, bang, bang!

The fleet unleashed a barrage upon the monsters in the outer area.

Hundreds of monsters were pulverized into dust simultaneously. However, as many as died, more monsters erged from sowhere, charging toward the fleet.

‘We won’t last long.’

Even if ammunition was unlimited, the durability of the cannons and ballistae had limits.

Smoke was already rising from the muzzles of several cannons.

Unable to fire. The continuous bombardnt since the beginning of the mission seed to have caused so to malfunction.

Although it would be reasonable to pause for repairs and reorganization, the fleet did not stop the bombardnt.

They were faithfully following my orders to prevent the monsters from reaching Party 1.

[Current Evolution Progress: 092 / 100]

Crack.

The outer shell of the egg began to crumble.

A huge crack spread vertically from the black pupil.

‘The final step is straightforward.’

I gripped the sword in my right hand firmly.

The blade of Bifrost was emitting a dazzling light.

It was as if it was saying it would lend its power, so deal with it yourself.

Rumble.

The entire forest was shaking.

The trees in the forest were smashed simultaneously as if swept away by an earthquake, and the ground heaved and subsided.

[Current Evolution Progress: 093 / 100]

Crack.

The egg, which had swallowed several large monsters whole, quivered.

“Listen up, chanic. From now on, the Lucette will approach the egg at maximum speed.”

The tentacles that had spread around the egg rippled all at once.

“If we can’t handle it, we’re finished. We don’t have ti for wordplay. So, can you do it or not? Answer quickly!”

Bang!

I stomped on the deck hard.

The thrusters at the back of the airship spewed fire.

High-speed navigation. The Lucette rapidly approached the egg.

Tentacles curved towards the airship.

[Airship ‘Lucette’ is heavily damaged!]

Boom!

With a montary vibration, the ship shook violently.

The long, thin tip of a tentacle scraped along the side of the airship.

“This much is fine! Ignore it.”

The Lucette evaded the approaching tentacles, twisting and turning as it gradually got closer to the egg.

The deck shook like a rollercoaster. I held on tightly to the railing. Although the ship flipped upside down and changed direction sideways, everyone maintained their balance and held on well.

“Leave it to us.”

Clang!

The tentacle that was about to strike the ship bounced off an invisible barrier.

Katio’s magical barrier.

Boom!

A large projectile burst and a steel arrow pierced through the middle of a tentacle.

Jenna, standing upside down on the flipped deck, was rapidly firing her longbow. She couldn’t eliminate the tentacles themselves, but it was enough to change their trajectory.

[Current Evolution Progress: 094 / 100]

Roar!

Suddenly, the Lucette was pushed back.

A roar that made the atmosphere tremble.

Crack, crack, crack.

The crumbling outer shell fell like rain.

Boom!

A tentacle shot up from below the forest, piercing the rear of the airship.

[Airship ‘Lucette’ is critically damaged!]

‘The magical engine…….’

A third of the Lucette was smashed.

It had to be the part with the engine.

The Lucette, having lost its propulsion, began to plumt rapidly.

“You can do it!”

Katiio waved his hand.

Light blue magic ensnared the entire airship like a spider’s web.

Buzz.

The Lucette, which was plunging, halted in mid-air.

“Go again!”

No response.

I hurried into the control room.

A girl in a chanic’s uniform was tumbled over the control panel, bleeding.

It seed she had hit her head badly when the ship shook.

‘Unconscious.’

However, there was no manpower to spare for piloting the airship.

I snapped my fingers.

[Ding!]

[Master, ‘Han(★★★★)’ requests manual control of the Lucette!]

An alert popped up in Anytng’s control window.

Anytng, who was organizing the fleet formation with tactical tools, quickly turned her focus to Lucette on the screen.

[Will you operate the airship manually?]

[Yes (Select) / No]

The Lucette slowly floated up.

Seven tentacles were rushing towards it.

Zing!

The Lucette spun five tis in a row, dodging the tentacles.

An impressive maneuver.

‘Just keep driving.’

And prepare a statue of a warhorse for .

Boom!

The Lucette surged forward at high speed.

[‘Katiio(★★★★)’ enters a state of magic overload.]

[Tips/ Magic overload is a status effect that occurs when a mage uses magic excessively.]

“Ugh!”

Blood gushed from Katiio’s mouth.

He was substituting his body for the role of the magical engine.

Even for a skilled mage, this would be too much to bear.

[Current Evolution Progress: 095 / 100]

Beyond the half-shattered egg, its form began to faintly erge.

“Jenna.”

“On it!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The tentacles pierced by steel arrows recoiled and withdrew.

“Velkist.”

“I’m ready.”

“Kishasha.”

“Let’s go!”

I nodded.

Only 30 ters to the egg now.

A scene reminiscent of a massive black cliff unfolded before my eyes.

“Good job. We’ll finish this ourselves.”

“Oppa, I too…….”

“No, protect the airship. We need a retreat path.”

Jenna, looking reluctant, nodded.

“Thank you.”

I gripped my sword firmly.

A tentacle was rushing towards .

[Unique Skill, Transformation (Transcendent) activated!]

[‘Kishasha(★★★★)’ transforms!]

One more transformation.

Kishasha, in her transcendent form, struck the tentacle with her fist.

Thwack!

A shockwave spread from the point of impact, causing the entire tentacle to ripple like a wave.

“Roar!”

Kishasha roared and jumped over the railing.

She began running directly atop the swaying tentacle.

“I’m exhausted from waiting.”

Velkist stepped to the bow of the ship.

[Unique Skill, ‘White Dragon Horn’ activated!]

A white horn began to protrude from Velkist’s head.

“I can only use this power once. But I can clear a path.”

Buzz!

Velkist’s sword slowly vibrated.

“Go ahead.”

I nodded.

Then I leaped into the sky beyond the railing.
