As the sky became dark and night, reinforcements, including my seventh Special Forces, boarded the wagon and set out for the Great Canyon of Panybullun.

I thought I'd walk, but I don't think I'd be able to pay the soldiers a horse. It's not a personal payment, but you're gonna need a horse to carry this person.

“I'm surprised. I never thought I'd pay for a wagon. ”

If Panybull needs a lot of archers, it's the Great Plain of Gamia that needs a lot of horses.

It looks like you need a Central Knight Raid to shake monsters, but you need a horse to make a powerful charge. And you're just using horses to transport soldiers.

“Klael, isn't the battle of Panyvelun that urgent?" ”

“I see, Knight. ”

‘This is why I'm here. uncomfortable.’

An old knight sitting on the other side with a clear smile.

He came to our wagon. Just before we leave.

The wagon in which he rides and the wagon in which the soldier rides will be of different class. I don't understand why he rides this wagon while taking the trouble.

“Is that the bow you received from Tarien? ”

The old knight looks at the bow I was touching and tells the tale.

“Oh, yeah. I got a good one. ”

“Klael, very good bow. From what I recall... I remember it as a gift from Tarien for her 12th birthday. ”

“... I've received something too good. ”

Tarien asked me what I wanted when the 7th Special Forces came together to depart for Panybull.

That's the story of the reward he promised me when he caught Orc Lord. That's why Tarien asked you to give him a bow to use in Panibalun.

I thought about buying a bow from the player shop, but suddenly I could see that I was asking Tarien to carry it around.

Thanks to that, I got such a good bow.

‘I asked you for a bow... but you gave me a bow as a gift. ’

I heard it's a high-quality bow made of Minotaur horns. I don't know if it's good, but the strap is resilient and externally very cool.

It's not the same color as the bow used by regular soldiers. The basic foundation of the bow was black, with a thin embroidered white line above it.

“But did you think you could shoot a bow? ”

“Yes, I learned a little from my father when I was a kid. It's not a good shot, it's basic. ”

The old knight's questions, the lies.

Thinking about my deceased father, I covered my eyes with tears, but I couldn't help but tell him that I know how to use it somewhat better for later purposes than to say that I used a bow for the first time.

‘Cause I don't know my exact archery. ’

“I'm looking forward to using a bow as well as a sword. ”

“... don't get your hopes up. I'm not sure I've used a bow in a long time. ”

An old knight looking at me with a happy face.

It's very burdensome. I know I've opened my heart to an old knight since the Orc Road incident, but it's true that I'm still reluctant to see that 'I like you’.

“Hmmm…! Knight, can I ask you a question? ”

“Haha, yes, what do you want to know? ”

The old knight smiled and said, "Ask me anything."

In this regard, it is certainly advantageous to have a friendship with the knights. I know more about knighthood than a soldier.

“Why do the soldiers of the Great Plains support the Great Canyon? because I've heard that infantry isn't much help in the Great Canyon. ”

I was curious about the arrangement of support units.

Archers are what you need to catch airborne monsters.

However, the reinforcements were all made up of infantry. Why the hell does Panybelloon need infantry?

“Hmm……. That's it.”

The old knight seems to be running out of important information.

“Well, now you can tell me. That's it.”

‘What the hell was that? ’

“Harpy queens have appeared in Panybelloon. ”

“Harpy Queen...? ”

The coup d 'etang.

Even before questioning the old knight's words, Max, who was lying down, stood up and opened his mouth in surprise.

“… Yes? Harpy Queen? Is that true? ”

“Klael, I'm serious. You must know about the Harpy Queen. You don't know much about it except for the soldiers who live in Panybull. ”

“Oh, yeah. I saw him 10 years ago in the Canyon of Panybullun when I was a regular monster wave. ”

“Oh! Then I know how dangerous he is. I don't even know why he's going to Gamian for support. ”

No, I don't. Somebody explain... '

Max opened his mouth to see if my desperation had worked.

“He's... smart enough to use tactics on monsters. It reminds me of a time when I used to struggle a lot. ”

“That's right. Smarter than a man, no. He must have caused significant damage to the Panybull Alliance. ”

Monsters using tactics.

The greatest reason humans were able to conquer monsters in the Great Plain of Gamian is tactics.

Monsters that are simpler and less intelligent can't handle simple tactics. A monster named Harpy Queen, by the way, uses tactics like a human.

“Huge! Are those monsters... Harpy Queens so special? Monsters are a tactic... ”

I couldn't help but ask the old knight.

I was pretty curious about what kind of monster he was using tactics for.

“Right. Well... I guess it's more like Orc Road. He's a nameless monster, too. The only difference is that Orc Lord is not as difficult as Shaman, whereas Harpy Queen directly controls Harpies. ”

‘Obviously, it was hard to find an Orc Lord. It was just... ’

Orc Roads are ignorant people who don't know they're commanding.

All he knows how to do is charge the Orcs underneath him.

“Knight, I hear the Harpy is a small monster. But is it particularly dangerous to have a harpy queen in control? Or is it because you're as hard to find as Orc Road? ”

Shaman didn't cast a spell on me, but I didn't understand the Alliance was pushing just because small monsters use tactics.

“Haha, it's dangerous. But it's not hard to find. Harpy Queens are usually bigger than Harpies, so you can tell by the size of them. ”

“Then why…? ”

“You're forgetting something. Do you think small monsters are physically weaker than ordinary people? ”

“Ah!”

It was ignorance due to lack of experience.

Even the Goblins, considered to be the weakest of the small monsters, emit the combat power of ordinary adult males. How about Harpies who say they're stronger than Goblins?

‘If those guys use tactics in the military.... ’

There are two reasons why the Allied forces were able to dominate the monster forces. Tactics and weapons.

But the tactical advantage is gone. Against monsters with a stronger body on a one-on-one basis.

“Haha, now you understand. ”

“Yes, I understand that. But there's one thing I still don't understand. ”

“What?”

“Why the hell do you need us? ”

The old knight explained that Harpy Queens are extremely dangerous, but he still doesn't understand the need for infantry.

Why do I need infantry against airborne monsters? To simply protect the archers?

“To catch the Harpy Queen. ”

I don't think I heard the middle explanation.

How the hell are we supposed to catch a Harpy Queen with foot soldiers?

With my face full of questions, the old knight opens his mouth with a hollow smile as if he understood.

“Haha, Harpies can't stay in the air like all the other airborne monsters. They're bigger than wings, so that's what they are. ”

“... You mean they're coming down to the ground... Then the infantry will take him down. ”

“Klael, yes. If you come down to the ground, the infantry will be easier to catch than the archers. ”

Now I understand. An airborne monster that needs to come down to the ground.

‘It's hard to catch it in the air, but you can catch it on the ground. ’

As long as the Harpies are airborne monsters, their queen will be halfway to the ground in combat. Most of all, unlike the untouched sky, weapons come within range.

‘... If Harpy Queen is a Named Monster... Could you catch 1000G? ’

Thinking about the Harpy Queen, my head flashes.

The sudden increase in 1000G is about 99 percent, if not 100 percent, thanks to the Orc Road.

Orc Road, a nameless monster. And the Harpy Queen we have to catch is also a nameless monster.

"What if I got 1000G for catching a namemonster like I expected?" ’

“I will... catch it. ”

“Huh? What do you mean? ”

“… No. ”

A chance you'll never miss.

I'm not 100% sure, but there's a good chance it's a 1000G monster.

My heart is already beating. My body is overheated with anticipation.

I can't believe I'm about to get another 1000G.

"Tarian... should I say thank you?" ’

When I went to Panybullun, I cursed at him every minute, but I felt a little sorry for him.

Hee-young!

The wagon that was riding along with the sound of the horse crying stops.

‘Here we are at last. ’

Grouch.

“I've reached the canyon. Everybody off!”

“Move quickly! ”

The knights shouted loudly and woke the sleeping soldiers in the wagon while they were making a boring move.

We have finally arrived at Panybellun Canyon, one of the three Allied points.

‘I got here much faster than I expected. It must be magic.’

It only took me three days to get here.

There was a reason that Gamia and Panyvelun were right next to each other, but above all, it was helpful for the knights to provide that expensive potion on the horse.

If you hadn't fed the potion, it would have taken at least twice as much time to rest the horse than it does now.

“This place is Panybelloon... it's incredible. ”

“Kaiyan.”

Uncle Max tapped me on the shoulder, looking at Panyvelun with surprised eyes.

“Yes, Uncle Max. ”

“How did you feel when you first saw Panybull? ”

“Really……. ”

The canyon was large enough to be adequately represented as vast.

At least a few hundred meters above the canyon height. It's not strange to call this a mountain range smaller than a canyon.

“I'm just saying it's amazing. Such a huge fortress of nature. ”

What is even more surprising is that this is not just a canyon, but a fortress in Pannibelun.

That's why Panybullun is so great. I thought of using this canyon as a fortress.

‘It's a canyon. Even if it was there... Those holes must have been made by themselves, right? ’

On the inner cliff of the canyon is a hole, like a cavern in the middle, where soldiers stand guard with torches.

The number of holes is roughly hundreds or more.

I had already heard from Uncle Max, but in reality, I was amazed.

“Klael, the wizards have gone through a lot of trouble making that. ”

“Did the Wizards make this? ”

“That's what I heard. I never would have made it if it wasn't for them. ”

“Magic, indeed, is remarkable. ”

I'm not just looking for wizards everywhere other than battles.

As we speak about the fortress for a long time, a knight who appears to be from Pannibelun comes forward.

“Escort the guided soldiers to their accommodations with reinforcements. ”

Several Panybull soldiers, ordered by the knights, spread out and march on the reinforcements.

In front of our 7th Special Forces, a soldier came, who was unusually a young soldier with blue hair.

“Greetings. My name is Deryan from Panybloon. ”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Jeff Calais with Gamia. ”

Jeff replied to the greeting of the soldier who introduced himself as Deryan.

Originally, the deputy knight was right, but I couldn't see if the knights and Tarien were already inside.

“I will escort you to your accommodations, so please follow me. For your information, the fortress is very complex, so don't spread out. ”

“You don't have to worry about that. ”

“Of course.”

You follow Deryan's instructions to the entrance of the great fortress.

It's overwhelming.

“Wow, it's bigger up close. ”

Even though he had the Wizard's help, how could he have thought of building a natural fortress like this?

I laughed as Max dragged me to see if my admiration was funny.

“You're still surprised. ”

“What's more surprising here? ”

“You'll be even more surprised if you look down from up there. ”

“Up there.... ”

Obviously, if you look down from hundreds of meters up, it's going to be huge.

What does it feel like to have the whole world? Or are they as terrified as they are when they fly?

During a short walk around Panybull Fortress, Deryan, who was in charge of the guide, stops.

“Here. You can use it from here to there. ”

The place he pointed to was a fairly large cave square with ten barracks neatly installed inside.

“This is where you'll be staying for a while. ”

“But can I call this place a barracks? ”

The barracks are blocked everywhere, but why did they set up barracks?

To keep her warm? Or do air monsters raid at night?

“You can take your time resting from lunch. I'll come back later. ”

Deryan, who was in charge of the guide, returns to the end.

Fight after lunch. It's definitely not like Gamian. To solve my curiosity, I approached Uncle Max who was looking around the fortress with a shrewd look.

“Sir, it's definitely not the plains. You started fighting in the afternoon.So the battle will end later? ”

“That's not it. These guys go back when the sun goes down. Canyon battles are shorter than plains. Of course, it's more intense that way. ”

"More intense… I'm looking forward to it. ’

I'm already excited about fighting new monsters.

Already in full swing to slaughter airborne monsters.

"You used a G. You're gonna pay for that. ’

Two days ago, I invested heavily in G, half-sober, because I was angry that I had only acquired a Grade D Archery skill from a lower archery. As a result.

Tiering! [Intermediate Archery (C): Applies when lifting a bow, +20% Attack and allows you to use the bow more skillfully]

Can upgrade beginner archery skills to Intermediate stats. Plus...

String! [Endurance (C): Accuracy +20%, Attack +20%]

String! [Focus: +10% Atk, +10% Intelligence]

I learned two new skills from an archery.

Fortunately, the endurance skill is a class C skill, as expected.

If this skill were Class D, you would have run to Tarien and punched him.

‘It's a better skill than I thought. ’

Unlike being disappointed by their first name, they had no choice but to practice using them and then think differently, even if they were not necessarily bows.

This means that even with a sword, the skill is activated correctly.

This is a privilege only for players. Many benefits with less effort.

‘Last but not least... this bracelet. ’

An incredibly thin bracelet of silver was attached to the wrist, which was unbelievably high in power.
