Chapter 59-New Order (9)

Episode 59 – New Order (9)

“They are largely divided into demon beast type and demon type. And as we analyzed them, we confirmed that even monsters of the same type were divided into slightly different types.”

Before the departure of the Demon World Allied Forces. Along with his henchmen, Flauros himself explained the information he had collected about the Demon King’s Army to the leaders of the Allied Forces.

His analysis was quite accurate as he suffered and fought and suffered numerous casualties.

“They’s common feature is their hard shell. It’s hard to even scratch them with enough force.”

“In the beginning, monsters of various shapes and types were crowded. But as the battle went on, only the ones that were visible became visible. Several of them have been confirmed to be changing into grotesque and monstrous appearances.”

General Nar, who lost his ability to fight, including one arm, due to his friendship with Yuria, supplemented his explanation based on his experience.

“Among the Beast types, only those who are heavy, hard, and have a huge body are used as assault troops. After that, their basic tactic is for melee soldiers with agile bodies to infiltrate the broken line and cause a melee.”

“After all, aren’t they the monsters who go in groups?”

At that time, while listening to the explanation, a lizardman with purple scales wagging his tongue spoke as if it was not a big deal. Hearing this, Flauros only snorted.

“We thought so too, and there was a time when we actually thought we would win easily. But that’s not all of their strategy. The demon-type entities have combat power comparable to ours. They use magic that has never been heard of before.”

“Using magic is…”

“The ones that bother me the most are the high-ranking ones who handle mana. They are all demon-type individuals, and they don’t look that different from each other on the outside. But their strength is beyond imagination. Even if you don’t want to admit it, that’s the reality.”

It was shocking that he used mana more than anything else. If your enemies are a group of simple monsters, you shouldn’t spend mana. Mana was the qualification of the intelligent body and some spiritual creatures.

“From what we’ve learned, the command entities lead their soldiers to destruction and slaughter. When their hideous nests are opened, the area is devastated and desolate with no surviving creatures.”

“So what? You’re saying that even if we get land, there’s nothing?!”

“So we have to stop them before they completely eat the ground.”

He laughed at the frightened Gremory. Aiming for the ground is the same for others. It was like a sudden time attack, so it became impossible to goof around.

“But the most frightening thing is nothing else. They know how to learn and grow. So we need to end this war as soon as possible. Before they get much, much stronger.”

Flauros instinctively realized that he had to end the fight with Lucy in a skirmish. She already had fast growth and a strong lifeline, but the stronger the opponent, the stronger she learns and grows.

“So, I urge you, don’t be greedy. All of you must have come here with some sort of order…but focus on the war right now. Just like when you fought the demon lord.”

Because he knew well about the demons, he had no choice but to trust him. Of course, it was not an area he could do anything about whether the request actually worked.

“My lord wants more achievements and rewards. Should we, the children of the wind, move slowly along with the others and suffer losses?”

“No, Captain.”

“So let’s move first. I heard that their flying power is terrible!”

Right after the meeting where Flauros had requested. The blue-skinned man with a grin returned to his men and smirked.

Their arms are made of feathered wings, and they are a kind of royal guard dispatched by their king who rules the Harpies. They had no intention of collaborating with others from the beginning.

“Let’s go! If we go and take the lead with overwhelming majors, that will soon help the main unit. You won’t be able to say anything because it’s the master’s order.”

Using his lord as a strong shield, the harpy guard captain flapped his wings and soared into the sky at once.

Soon hundreds of harpies flew into the sky following them, and Flauros sighed at the sight of them.

‘I’ve done it by any chance.’

Proper cooperation and unity. Yet they lacked the urgency to achieve it.

[Enemy movement detection]

And from the moment the harpies left the garrison, Lucy, who had already worked hard on reconnaissance around them, also sensed their movements.

[This is an opportunity to strengthen flying species]

Lucy saw the harpies flying towards them confidently and took it as an opportunity. Flight power lacking compared to ground forces. Because the material to strengthen it was flying.

“Why don’t you come with the ground forces?

[If you’re not trying to fight attrition as a guerrilla, it’s probably arbitrary.]

Excluding emotions and prioritizing calculations, Lucy unexpectedly saw through the movements of the harpies at once. And in fact, if the intention was to attack the harpies alone first, there would be no reason not to fight back.

[We will collect data by using existing flying species]

Lucy put the flying species she possessed against the harpies first. It is true that even the upper ranks cannot fly freely unless they invest in wings like Yuria, so the current flight power of the Demon King’s army is declining.

But, in the end, it’s just a matter of the moment.

“These monsters are the ones I heard about!”

The captain of the Harpy Guard laughed in amusement at the many flying species that charged at them, then stretched out his thick, strong feet with sharp raptorial claws and swung them freely.

Then, the superior flight ability and strong body combined, and the flying species Demon King’s carapace, which sacrificed its defense power for flight, was smashed and cracked at once, scattering body fluids.

As calculated by Lucy, the Demon King’s flight power is still not enough to defeat the Harpies.

[Activate all available countermeasures]

Of course, this battle had a different purpose from the beginning. Collecting valuable data on air combat that has been lacking until now.

The Demon King’s Army, which had only fought with the beast-type beasts, was now in the process of increasing their power by absorbing and analyzing all the data at random.

“Kuh…what is this, you despicable bastards!”

In the midst of the fierce battle, the captain of the Harpy Guard, who was fighting directly, was shocked to find something climbing on his wings mixed with the scattered bodily fluids.

Wriggling like a black parasite, it wriggled through his body and somehow tried to infiltrate into the body, and after raising mana, he instantly strengthened the body surface and killed it.

[Brain Maw Alpha death. It doesn’t matter.]

Lucy snorted as the parasite that was about to take over his body was disconnected.

In fact, Brain Maw Alpha, which is made from the monster parasite parasitic on the monster, has no proper defense anyway. It is weak enough to explode with the slightest pressure.

Originally, it is a terrible monster that devours the brain and controls the body, but it is not able to deal damage to those who strengthen the body using mana and is caught on the contrary.

“Keep…ahhhhh!”

“Oh, how can it be!”

However, the story is different if they do not have any means of self-defense, including mana.

The captain of the Harpy Guard was astonished at the sight of several of his subordinates having seizures while bleeding from their eyes, nose and mouth. As they screamed and ran rampant and started attacking allies around them randomly, something deeply dug into their ears was wriggling and protruding.

[Ready to fire]

And while they were so confused. In order to intercept the sky from the ground, Lucy put the entire heavy body of artillery on standby, concentrating firepower.

[start bombardment]

Lucy didn’t use magic on purpose. For the data to subdue the opponent with the power of pure troops without special powers such as magic.

“Huh, retreat! Retreat!”

The large thorns fired by the artillery pierced his defense and grazed the side of his face.

However, in this brief collision they lost quite a bit of power. Lucy, on the other hand, had all the data she wanted, so even if it was a battle of attrition, it would have been beneficial.

“Did you get everything you wanted?”

“The results came out as expected, but it’s a pity that they didn’t see a bigger benefit because they won’t be so vigilant in the future.”

A gruesome battlefield full of corpses and blood. At the sound of his voice coming from across the screen, Lucy grabbed the fallen harpy by the hair and lifted it up with her hands.

Now, if you eat this corpse and combine the data to create a new type of soldier, the flight type of the Demon King’s Army will be further strengthened.

“How about a parasite-type soldier. If you make it in large quantities, it would be useful. If you go beyond parasites to bacteria or viruses.”

“The expected value is high, but the efficiency is not very high. It is because of the lack of computing power.”

In this battle, which took place in the sky, which is an unfavorable terrain for the Demon King’s army, new soldiers were also mobilized to overcome the disadvantage.

However, Lucy judged that Brain MawㆍAlpha, which was made from parasites as a base, was inefficient.

“The smaller it is, the smaller the brain volume, that is, the maximum capacity, makes it impossible to put subprograms in. In addition, due to the nature of the subminiature species, the number of operations must be large, and then the burden of computational power increases rapidly.”

“Ummm, is that a physical limit?”

“Small species such as the Brain Angler can’t be the main force, so it seems like they should be used as special weapons in localized battles like now.”

Lucy boldly gave up the project she had been working on. It is inefficient to cling to something that has already been judged to be inefficient. There’s no way Lucy would allow that.

“We will analyze the data of the harpies to strengthen the airborne species and use them to counter the allied enemies with new strategies.”

Instead, Lucy focused on something else. With a new flight power enhanced by using the results obtained from the battle with the harpies, he will now deal with opponents who move cautiously without being vigilant.

Thanks to the characteristic that the stronger the opponent, the stronger the person who learned it, the demonic allied force, which was barely united, began to lose to Lucy without even fighting properly.

“…not much time.”

Lucy hastened to war.

Enlarged colonies do not simply exist. Existence itself costs money to maintain. Unless she had a new nutrient supply system, Lucy had to fight and eat endlessly to supplement it and achieve the desired growth.
