Chapter 472
Aqua dissatisfied and slapped away Wiz's hand holding Igarashi. Of course, compared to jealousy about the relationship between men and women, Aqua at this moment was more of a goddess' hostility towards the undead.
During the battle, Wiz was heroic, but when facing Aqua, he was extremely weak. Just being slapped away by Aqua, Wiz trembled, with a look of fear on his face, maybe because he was once a human. As a peak adventurer, she sensed Aqua's special nature, or the lich's natural fear of divine beings.
When the group returned to the town, they saw residents leaving in a hurry with large and small bags.
"what happened?"
Aqua strangely wanted to stop the people who were fleeing, but no one paid attention to her. Even if Aqua grabbed her clothes, the civilians who usually had to worry about every Eris for a long time actually left regardless, even if the quality was poor. His clothes were torn and there was no reaction.
"Destroyer Alert! Destroyer Alert! The Mobile Fortress Destroyer is currently approaching this town! All adventurers, please be fully armed and head to the Adventurer's Guild immediately! In addition, residents of the town, please seek refuge immediately."
A voice came from the loudspeaker. Although she tried to remain calm, the announcer's voice was obviously trembling. She was afraid. This unconcealable fear caused the whole town to fall into panic. The residents only had time to get a small part of their important belongings. Running outside, there were many adventurers who also hid in the crowd and did not obey the guild's orders.
"Igarashi, who is currently approaching this town, claims that after passing by, not even a blade of grass will be left except for the Axis cultists. The most vicious bounty target, the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, if you want to fight with that thing Fighting...my explosion magic is not good, it has a powerful magic barrier, it may not be a problem to block one or two shots."
Megumin used the word Axis Cultist when describing the Mobile Fortress Destroyer to emphasize the danger. This was by no means a compliment to the Axis Cultists. In a sense, it was about how difficult the Mobile Fortress Destroyer was. Similar to Axis cultists.
"Now, why do you talk about my lovely followers like that? Wiz said similar things before, why are you so afraid of those children! They are all normal and good children!"
No one paid attention to Aqua's argument, and Darkness rushed back to the room. Most people might think that she was going to get something and prepare to escape, but Igarashi knew that this timid female knight might be excited again and rushed back to the room. They plan to resupply and prepare to attack the Mobile Fortress Destroyer in full force. No, they plan to bear its attack unilaterally.
Since the Mobile Fortress Destroyer is not on the side of the Demon King's army, Wiz also plans to help.
Aqua didn't have much affection for the Destroyer, who was feared by people, so she didn't run away at the moment.
The group took a short rest and immediately went to the Adventurer's Guild.
Although many adventurers became deserters, there were still many people gathered in the guild, and the staff kept shouting to maintain order.
"Everyone present, thank you very much for responding to today's emergency information! Next, we will hold an emergency mission to defeat the Mobile Fortress Destroyer. This mission is regardless of level or occupation. We hope that everyone can participate. If the guild determines that the mission cannot continue, , will abandon the entire town, and everyone will run away together. You are the last line of defense to protect this town, please do everything!"
A few new adventurers didn't seem to know what a Mobile Fortress Destroyer was. They raised their hands to ask questions. After hearing the staff's explanation, Aqua, who was originally indifferent, panicked.
"Hey, Igarashi, let's run. A demon destroyed a country, then ravaged the entire continent and no one could stop it. Is this something we can solve?"
Aqua's tone was not high, but several nearby adventurers heard it, and they did not show any disdain. This is the mentality that everyone has. When they come to the guild to gather, they are just trying their best. If If the situation is not good, the adventurers will not hesitate to run away. There have been too many examples of overestimating their abilities to challenge the Destroyer and being completely wiped out. In this case, running away is the wise choice.
"The huge body is shrouded in a powerful magic barrier. Magic attacks are meaningless at all. As for physical attacks, the large catapult cannot hit high-speed moving targets. Moreover, it is equipped with a self-supporting golem that can use ballistae to shoot down flying targets. The object facing the fortress is also equipped with a battle golem. Do you have any good opinions?"
The staff was still making introductions. The more she introduced, the more the adventurers present panicked. Some of the adventurers who had only learned about the mobile fortress and came with enthusiasm began to want to escape after hearing the official detailed introduction. Already...
"Aqua-sama can break the magic barrier, right?"
Wiz's whispered thoughts became the focus of the silent and desperate adventurers.
When Aqua didn't react, the adventurers started to get excited.
"The shop owner must be right. If it succeeds, you can use magic to attack... Ah, no, the whole town is full of new adventurers. With the magicians here, I don't know if the firepower is enough, even if the shop owner is added... …”
At this time, a certain adventurer said something.
"Isn't there another one with strong firepower? There's something wrong with that one's head!"
The adventurers suddenly became energetic.
"Yes, that one has a problem with his head."
"There's that girl in question..."
"Hey, wait a minute, if you are referring to me, stop calling me that. Otherwise, I will immediately prove that there is something wrong with my head!"
Megumin raised her staff as if she was about to cast explosive magic.
The adventurers shut up and looked at each other. The owner of the Wiz prop shop plus the girl in question will definitely win!
The adventurers cheered... and ran away, saying they were going to set up roadblocks, but they thought they would not participate in the battle after setting them up.
Because they have realized that they are of no use. Instead of rushing forward as cannon fodder and dying, it is better to take refuge as soon as possible.
The guild became deserted again.
"Want to be a hero? Megumin."
Igarashi looked at the middle school girl with a smile. Megumin's mood had been very low. She gradually began to doubt herself. Although she did not question the explosion magic, she was doubting whether it was really right to only learn the explosion magic and not learn other magics, because, In these few missions, she has not been put to great use.
Chapter 654 Destroyer Destruction
"hero?"
Megumin's eyes sparkled.
"Well, after Aqua unlocks the magic barrier on the Destroyer, you and Wiz use the strongest attack magic together. If you defeat the mobile fortress guardian, there is no doubt that you will prove the power of explosion magic, Megumin His name will also spread throughout this continent."
Igarashi touched Megumin's head. The girl did not avoid it as before. She was completely fascinated by the scene Igarashi described, with stars in her eyes.
"Leave it to me! I am the most powerful magician!"
A building that looks like a spider but is as big as a fortress or castle, the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, is approaching the town.
Among the adventurers, the profession called Creator set up roadblocks and created golems to try and block them, but to no avail. The Destroyer destroyed all the traps by just moving normally.
The huge body made of magic metal charged invincibly, rushing towards the town with an unstoppable attitude.
The huge strength gap caused the adventurers to give up their useless struggle and retreat far behind Igarashi and his party. They were ready to abandon the town once they saw that the situation was not going well. This is currently the only one on the mainland facing the Mobile Fortress Destroyer. solution.
"Do it, Aqua."
Seizing the opportunity, Aqua released the magic, and the task of commanding the scene was handed over to Igarashi, but Igarashi didn't look at it at all, and directly asked Aqua to release the magic barrier of the Destroyer. He didn't intend to just command, Will do it quietly.
"SacredSpellBreak!"
Although her IQ seems to be the same as before, Aqua now listens to Igarashi's words. A complex magic circle appears around her, and a white ball of light appears in Aqua's hand.
She stretched out her hand holding the ball of light and fired it towards the Destroyer.
A thin film appeared on the surface of the Destroyer's huge body to block the light ball. It was the magic barrier that made countless magicians despair. It should have been able to withstand countless powerful magics, but it was smashed by the light ball like glass. Easily smashed.
"Wiz, Megumin, aim your magic at the Destroyer."
"The opponent is too fast, and even if we both release explosive magic at the same time, it won't be enough to defeat it!"
Wiz frowned and reminded Igarashi.
"Believe in yourself, and from this day forward, the Destroyer will become history."
Wiz wanted to say something else, but Aqua glared at him and muttered.
Darkness, covered in brand new armor, raised her hands high.
