A Frontline Soldier Awakened as a Gamer In The War!

Chapter 35: (2)



He could feel the commander of the 12th position looking at him. It was a gaze that felt very burdensome.

It was okay if the old knight had always shown interest in him, but it was quite uncomfortable to catch the attention of others.

“Ahem… I will continue hunting monsters.”

Swoosh. Ping!

Phewww!

Kaiyan couldn’t give up leveling up, so he restrained himself from using skills and shot arrows with pure strength toward the monsters.

Of course, the arrows shot with that strength alone were terrifying, but since there were no shocking scenes like when he used a skill, it was somewhat acceptable.

“Kyaaaah!”

Phewww!

“Easier than I thought?”

Kaiyan thought so as he watched the monster with pierced wings fall to the ground. This was much easier than he had imagined.

He was a bit surprised by the size of the flying monsters at first, but the battle in Panielun didn’t give him the intense feeling he had in the Gami-an Great Plain.

“Hehehe, you think it’s easy, huh?”

“Huh? No… Yes. Actually, I do think it’s somewhat easy.”

He was taken aback by the old knight’s words, which seemed to read his thoughts exactly.

“Hehehe, have you forgotten about the Harpy Queen? It’s because the Harpy Queen hasn’t appeared yet that you have this leisure.”

“Why hasn’t that creature shown up yet? The Harpies, their own kind, are dying in droves.”

An hour had passed since the war began.

He had already killed over 60 of those creatures himself. However, there was no news about the Harpy Queen.

“We humans have no way of knowing the reason. It’s just a fact that there must be something special about that creature. It’s an intelligent one, so we must never let our guard down.”

It was a monster smarter than most humans.

Because of the repeated warnings from the old knight and Uncle Max, along with the reward of 1000G, his expectations for that creature grew even higher.

Fighting against a strong monster like that, it was an exhilarating experience. He would definitely kill it and reap all the benefits.

While thinking like that, he noticed something strange about the Harpies’ movements.

“Kyaaah?”

“Kiiiyah!”

“Where are those creatures going?”

The monsters that had been attacking the position on the ground started ascending to the sky one by one.

When he wondered why the creatures that had descended all the way down were suddenly behaving that way…

Whoosh! Whoosh!

“It’s the Harpy Queen! The Harpy Queen has appeared!”

“The Harpy Queen has emerged!!”

Along with the urgent shouts of soldiers coming from all directions, the war horns echoed briefly and repetitively. The short sound of the horns was meant to raise the alert level to danger.

“It’s starting. Everyone, except for some archers, get ready!”

Upon the command from the commander of the 12th position, the archers, who had been calmly dealing with the monsters, hurriedly moved with anxious expressions.

Some headed towards the direction of the supply unit, possibly to replenish their fallen arrows, while the rest of the archers started repairing broken or malfunctioning bows and fortifications.

And finally, the infantry units, except for the 7th Special Unit.

“Push! Charge!”

“Argh!”

They were in the process of pushing the corpses of monsters piled up at the entrance of the position outwards. If it were a battle against ground monsters, the corpses could serve as cover, but they were of no help when facing aerial monsters and only hindered movement.

“Kyaah!”

“Knock them down!”

Although the relentless monsters, excluding the Harpies, continued to attack, the minority of monsters that made up the majority of aerial monsters posed no significant threat.

“All members of the 7th Special Unit, gather here!”

“Gather here, everyone!”

The deputy commander of the 7th Special Unit began calling the soldiers who had been standing idly by, unlike the soldiers of the Panielun, to gather them.

“Listen up! According to the information we received, the Harpy Queen will definitely descend to the ground once. When that happens, we will go to capture the Harpy Queen together with other support units.”

“She descends to the ground once.”

It meant that there was only one chance today. And if they missed that chance, they would have to wait until tomorrow.

“Good. We are the 7th Special unit that captured the Orc Lord! Let’s all stay strong!”

“Let’s not die!”

“If you get injured, don’t hesitate to retreat immediately!”

He regained his resolve, which had wavered due to the previous battle.

Having personally experienced how dangerous the named monster Orc Lord was, to the extent of shaking the formation of the central army, he had no intention of underestimating the named monster Harpy Queen.

“We must definitely capture her. With my hands… Hm?”

As he saw an old knight next to him drawing his sword and wiping the blade, a strange thought suddenly occurred to him.

“Sir.”

“What is it?”

“Isn’t there an elite unit in Panielun?”

Just as there was an elite unit to capture the giant monsters that appeared in the Gami-an Great Plain, he thought that there might also be an elite unit in Panielun.

“Well, of course. It’s not as much as in Gami-an, but occasionally, giant monsters do appear in Panielun.”

“But why do they leave the Harpy Queen as she is?”

He knew that elite units preserved their stamina to confront giant monsters. However, this case was very different from the Orc Lord.

The Harpy Queen had a different appearance from other Harpies, so she wasn’t hard to find. Moreover, she had the tremendous disadvantage of having to descend to the ground at least once. So, why weren’t they capturing her?

If the Panielun elite unit had the power comparable to the Gami-an elite unit, capturing her wouldn’t require much stamina consumption.

“They cannot vacate their positions.”

“What?”

What did he mean by that? They couldn’t vacate their positions.

Weren’t they stationed in Panielun to confront the giant monsters?

“What do you think will happen if the giant monsters enter the Grand Canyon?”

“Well… I don’t know.”

“Think about it easily. What do you think will happen if the Basilisk causes a rampage in the abyss?”

“Ah!”

Finally, he understood the meaning behind the old knight’s words.

If the Basilisk caused a rampage in the Grand Canyon, the abyss itself could collapse. The power that came from the colossal size of the giant monsters was terrifying enough for that to happen.

What would happen if the Grand Canyon collapsed?

The Allied Forces, having lost their fortress, would likely be pushed back by the monster horde unilaterally.

“Then, they…”

“They are blocking the giant monsters in other places.”

“They are in other places?”

“Hehehe, yes. Although it’s the same Panielun, there is a considerable distance between where they are and here. If, while they are away to capture the Harpy Queen, a giant monster appears, the Allied Forces will be done for.”

He never imagined such a complicated situation.

He erased the thought of underestimating the Panielun Elite Forces for a moment. It turned out that they were not foolishly being drawn by the named monsters for no reason.

“Well then…”

Swoosh!

Kyaah!

The sharp screech is unique to the Harpies.

He heard the sound of the Harpies, who had gone upwards, coming back down towards the ground.

“They’re descending again. Let’s put off the discussion and get ready.”

“Yes.”

“Good. If the elite unit can’t go, then I will personally capture her as I did with the Orc Lord.”

Crack!

As a representation of his burning spirit, he tightly gripped the bow in his hands as his eyes turned red.
