Chapter 61.2. Mantis vs. Spider
-???’s POV-
If they drop the iron spider computer and shut down the mana drive completely, it would take 10 minutes to start up. If they’re to check the fire control and each system, it will take lightly 30 minutes.
When the battalion commander argued against that order to Duke Kanna, saying it was too much trouble when he left, rather than considering the eventuality, the Duke tapped the commander on the shoulder, returned it with a smiling smile, saying let’s go out for dinner next time, so he decided to listen to his order.
The closer he got to Duke Kanna, the quicker he could rise in the ranks. The battalion commander was, as rumor had it, one who had risen in the ranks through connections and brilliance, so he was both eager and lazy to move up the ladder.
… But why? Suddenly, he awakens his duty as a soldier. He had ordered his men to start the tanks again, in case something went wrong.
And now they were charging into the midst of the enemy.
“Why …… am I doing this ……?”
Disbelief begins to flicker in his head from doubt. He doesn’t deserve this kind of heroic action. He would have fled the scene immediately.
“Oh, you decided to become a hero. Did you forget? Didn’t you wake up to a sense of justice to help the weak as a soldier?”
A pleasant female voice whispers softly in his ear.
“Yes, I did. That’s right. I was supposed to be a hero. We have so many people behind us. We have to protect them!”
“Yeah, you guys are brave. They will praise you.”
“That’s right. That’s right. Everyone, get fired up! When the iron spider gets destroyed, it’s time to wield your power!”
The battalion commander commands, euphoric at the beautiful voice that melts his lustful brain misunderstanding. His cronies, his subordinates, nod back without refuting him.
They’re equipped with magic armor for tank soldiers. When the time comes, they intend to go out and fight.
Become a hero. Help a lot of people.
“We’ll be heroes.”
The driver who always flatters and skips training shows a strong will.
“We will be heroes.”
The man who had also become a comfortable radio operator with the same seven glows had a dignified face.
“We will be heroes.”
The artilleryman, who prefers aiming at women to shooting shells, also declares.
“Yes! We will be heroes! We will help the weak and vulnerable!”
The obese battalion commander, who is brilliant, rarely participates in training, and has a big belly isn’t suitable for a soldier, and raises his voice to everyone.
“It’s wonderful. I’m so in love with your bravery.”
A woman claps her hands with beautiful hands like a white fish, with a faint and bewitching smile.
Slightly shaking their bodies, the tankmen unite their hearts in a battle cry.
“That’s impressive. Normally, I heard these people couldn’t even move the tanks and quickly ran away, but they’re soldiers, aren’t they? Wouldn’t you guys be happier this way?”
There was another person in the cockpit of the tank. A beautiful woman with golden hair and bewitching limbs sits in the spare seat.
“It’s utterly terrible, huh? But I think this one’s bad enough. Worse than my prophecy. You know the story.”
It was Frigg who giggled and laughed. She stood up, brushed her hair, threw a kiss, and opened the hatch.
“Well, I’ll leave you here. Don’t worry. I think you guys will survive with any luck. I hope you won’t hold it against me. Because it’s your job. If you survive, wake up from your dreams.”
Frigg jumps out and quickly closes the hatch. Countless scissors mantis were already swarming around the iron spider, waving their scythes in an attempt to destroy it.
Even though it is heavily armored, the iron spider’s damaged, and its armor is peeling. Even so, it still seemed to be able to withstand the attack. Durability’s the selling point of any magic weapon. This lump of metal should be able to keep the monster mantis, and the others attracted for a while.
“It was hard work to put [Life Dominator V] on all of them. I’ll have to get an extra reward from the young lady.”
With a sigh, Frigg kicks down the approaching juvenile scissors mantis and pulls out a feather coat from her item box, covering her body softly.
[Eagle Transformation]
As she transforms herself into a hawk, she mutters a few words.
“Next will be my last order. Goodness, you’re a rough young lady.”
When she has transformed into a hawk, she flaps her wings and soars into the sky. As she flies to the ground as ordered, looking at the ground, she sees scissors mantis leaking from the iron spiders.
“They’re pretty out of it. …… Well, I can’t help it. I did as the young lady ordered.”
With these words, Frigg, now a hawk, flew away.
Below, scissors mantis and the others who had crossed the defense line clashed with adventurers and warriors, mana popping and metallic clangs echoing.
