Magic armor exclusively for Ulan.
When everyone was surprised by the size, which was more than twice as large as the last time they saw it, the Henness team explained the whole story.
“The Magic Armor you see now is a new, specially modified aircraft.”
The reason for the remodeling was also revealed.
This was because Ulan had separately requested that it be made larger. The reason he made this request was extremely simple.
‘The bigger you are, the easier it will be to fight.’
It is especially easy when dealing with large monsters.
One more thing here.
As the magic armor becomes larger, there is no need to deal with undead soldiers one by one.
Just trample on it and that’s it.
‘It would have been impossible in my past life… … .’
Now that he has signed a contract with Perticia, Ulan can use the spirits relatively freely.
In other words, it is possible to fight with a spirit wrapped around your entire body.
‘If the size of the magic armor increases here, it will be possible to crush quite a few undead into dust simply by shocking them.’
So I asked for a bigger size.
After finishing the reminiscence.
Ulan looked around at the changed Magic Armor. Then she asked again as if she had suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.
“What happened to my additional request?”
Just before leaving the flute.
Ulan went to the Hennes team and asked for an additional two-handed axe that he was already using.
This was also a simple reason.
Because I got used to fighting with an ax in each hand rather than just one axe.
“Oh, you mean weapons?”
“I brought it as requested.”
Another two-handed ax prepared at the back of the magic armor. As Ulan nodded his head after discovering this, several engineers expressed concern.
“But are you sure you’re okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“That weapon.”
“A single two-handed ax would weigh quite a bit, but swinging both at the same time… … .”
My body won’t be able to stand it.
That’s because that two-handed ax was made assuming that one was wearing magic armor.
Ulan, on the other hand, shook his head.
“I’m fine.”
“It means we’re worried.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll show you.”
“yes? What does it show… … .”
Magical engineers with puzzled expressions.
After a while, their faces quickly turned pale blue. This is because Ulan, who approached with great strides, immediately grabbed hold of two two-handed axes.
“… … !?”
“Now, wait a minute! “It’s dangerous!”
“If you lift it without wearing magic armor, you will not be able to overcome the weight and will fall down… … .”
The engineers hastily stretched out their hands.
To dissuade Ulan. But their worries were unfounded.
“Not bad.”
An Ulan who moves with two two-handed axes each. I couldn’t swing it because the space in the room was limited, but there was no need to.
Because Ulan looked very relaxed.
“Did you really hear that?”
“If you combine the two axes, the weight will be comparable to that of magic armor… … .”
“What method did you use?”
The engineers, who had half-dazed expressions on their faces, rushed to ask questions. On the other hand, Ulan responded as if it was no big deal.
“I just heard it.”
“No, so how?!”
“Do you need a method for lifting things?”
Ulan asked back.
As if asking why you should ask something that is so obvious.
Just when the engineers were silent like mutes in response to this reaction, they heard a murmur that made them even more amazed.
“It’s just a little disappointing.”
“yes? “Are you disappointed?”
“I wish it was a little heavier here.”
“… … .”
There is no power left to be surprised anymore.
The engineers laughed as if they were empty.
As if it was only then that he realized that Ulan’s power was abnormally strong.
Several engineers who quickly acknowledged this responded to Ulan’s muttering and asked back.
“Then shall I do whatever you want?”
“Is it possible?”

“Yes, I brought extra materials in case the magic armor or weapons were damaged.”
“If we were just adding more weight, we could get the job done before the battle starts.”
“I’m willing to ask.”
Some time after that.
Upon hearing that the work was over, Ulan and his group returned to the last compartment of the train.
“Then, please give me a final confirmation!”
After the engineers spoke, Ulan, Delia, and Ibella were each equipped with magic armor.
And the result.
There was no particular problem.
Delia and Ibella were satisfied with their respective magic armor, and Ulan also had a good response.
“How do you feel about the weight of the axe?”
“It’s appropriate.”
“Ahaha, that’s a good thing.”
The engineers smiled awkwardly as they saw Ulan reacting indifferently to its weight, which was 1.5 times more than before.
“Still, please be careful.”
“The weight of the ax alone is much heavier than the weight of the magic armor currently worn.”
“I understand. “Keep that in mind.”
Probably not.
Still, Ulan silently nodded because he could sense the sincere concern in his voice.
Eventually, when all the inspections of the Magic Armor were completely completed, a familiar voice was suddenly heard.
“Delivered to all rooms!”
A voice that resonates loudly throughout the room.
That was Professor Melt’s shout. He continued talking with the train drivers.
“The train will arrive at its destination soon.”
“Please prepare for battle!”
It looks like we’ve already reached the gorge.
At the same time, Delia, who knew the current location, used magic without hesitation.
“I’ll take a look.”
8-star star cluster magic, star eyes.
This magic boasts the best performance among the observation series.
This is a magic that can create a huge eye in the sky and then find the desired being or object in any area within sight.
“Oh, really. “We’re almost there.”
With one eye closed, Delia blinked the other. In response to her words, Ulan asked a question in an expression of curiosity.
“Where is the enemy? Did you cross the canyon?”
“No, it looks like we haven’t gotten out of the canyon yet. however… … .”
“however?”
Delia hesitated to answer for a moment.
Soon her eyes narrowed.
“… … “The numbers are small.”
“What do you mean?”
“Not as many as you see in the video. “I can only see half, or at most 30%.”
During the emergency meeting, the crystal ball that Sergeant Cedric took out shows that, at a glance, an army numbering in the thousands attacked the northern border fortress.
However, currently, the enemy forces observed through the star’s eye were less than half of that number.
“Have they dispersed their troops?”
“But even so, you have to cross the canyon to get to the flute.”
Ibella and Noah also added their guesses.
However, I couldn’t just continue to speculate.
This was because Professor Melt and the engineer, who were watching the scenery beyond the tracks from the engine room at the head of the train, urgently reported the situation.
“Demon beasts and undead found ahead!”
“Come on, come up to the tracks!”
“If things continue like this, a collision is expected!”
There are currently no safety devices on the train.
Also, there are no means of defense.
This was because all removable equipment was removed to lighten the weight as much as possible.
But what if you collide with a group of undead or a large monster in this situation? It is certain that a catastrophe will occur.
“We’ll talk about the details later.”
Ulan turned his helmet over.
Soon, red eyes flashed, and Ulan immediately kicked the train and jumped out.
It was the beginning of the battle.
5.
Meanwhile, at that time.
The canyon was not the only place where the fighting took place.
Sulfern, the border city of the Kingdom of Cerne, was also in the midst of a battle against a sudden attack.
“Never back down!”
“Support will come from elsewhere soon!”
“Hold on no matter what until then!”
On the battlefield, which had turned into a fierce battle, the soldiers brandished their weapons like crazy. It was to fight against uninvited guests who came under the cover of the night.
“Ugh! help me!”
“Wow! Why are the undead… … !”
The identity of the unwelcome guest is an army of undead.
Those who suddenly appeared together with the demonic beasts across the border of the Kingdom of Endrak boasted a number of over a thousand.
The soldiers were inevitably overwhelmed by the scale they had never experienced before. But the real problem wasn’t the numbers.
“No, they are coming back to life!”
“Damn it! “The weapon doesn’t work!”
Even after smashing their heads and cutting off their limbs, they only hesitated for a moment and never fell.
Slurp! Sreuk!
This is because the black smoke rising from the ground immediately joined the body that had been broken in two.
“Shoot fiery arrows!”
“Burn the whole body!”
The archers on the castle wall lit arrowheads full of oil and fired, but unfortunately the situation did not change.
This time, the rising black smoke extinguished the flames on the undead’s bodies.
“… … !?”
The moment they realized that it was a meaningless action, like pouring water into a broken jar, the soldiers’ morale plummeted.
Increasingly invisible odds.
At that time, a soldier who was fighting tenaciously in the darkening battlefield shouted as if crying.
“shit! “Where has Sven gone at a time like this?!”
Special mercenary and demon hunter, Sven.
If he had been there, it would have given us some breathing room, but unfortunately, Sven is not currently here.
This is because he went to the eastern jungle last night for reconnaissance and has not yet returned.
At this fact, the garrison commander, Milena Armadin, who was fighting on the front lines, bit her lips tightly.
‘… … Sven.’
A battle with no chance of winning was a battle, but I was worried about Sven, who did not come back even though the situation had reached this point.
‘are you okay. Nothing much will happen.’
If something dangerous had happened, I would have fired a flare. In other words, if there is no news, it probably means that Sven is still safe.
Milena thought so.
At that time, the urgent cries of the archers on the castle wall were heard.
“Mi, Captain Milena!”
“They’re climbing up the walls!”
“Ugh! “There are too many numbers!”
The undead had already reached the castle gate and began climbing the castle wall, trampling on the demonic beasts.
I could easily get rid of a few of them, but as the number exceeded hundreds, I couldn’t even think of how to deal with them.
‘If we keep fighting like this… … !’
This side will be in danger because it will be surrounded by undead who climbed up the castle wall.
Milena quickly grasped the situation and gritted her teeth to make the final decision.
“… … “We retreat to the inner city!”
Abandon the outer fortress, which has a large defensive radius, and engage in a defensive battle in the relatively tight inner fortress.
It was literally the final operation.
If we retreat further, all that will remain is street fighting, and if we do that, there will be many casualties.
“Give up the gate and move back!”
“Move while maintaining the defensive line!”
The good news is that he explained the final strategy to his subordinates in advance. Accordingly, the soldiers maintained their ranks and headed toward Naeseong.
But a new problem arose.
“Hey, Ghent turned into undead!”
Among those who were retreating, there was someone who had been bitten by the undead. When they turned into undead, the ranks collapsed in an instant.
“This is crazy! “Push it out quickly!”
“If we keep going like this, it’s over!”
“Be careful not to get bitten by it!”
Of course, the soldiers did not go easy either.
As veterans who had fought countless battles, they kicked out the soldiers who had turned into undead and tried to rebuild their ranks.
But it was already too late.
“No, they’re coming this way!”
The undead attacked, taking advantage of the gap created by the collapse of the ranks.
The defense line was breached in a sudden surprise attack, and the army of the dead, taking advantage of this, surged towards the inner city like an angry wave.
“shit! The enemy is resistant… … .”
“no! “Aaaah!”
A defense line that collapses in an instant.
Milena and the soldiers gritted their teeth and resisted, but they were quickly surrounded by them. This happened right before the introductory ceremony.
[Grrr!]
[Woo Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The soldiers who were once her colleagues turned into undead and approached Milena. Facing them, she let out a hollow laugh.
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
It was a laugh full of despair.
The moment the battle she had endured so far became meaningless, Milena lowered her sword with a half-resigned look on her face.
At that time, this thought suddenly occurred to me.
‘If Sven had been there… … .’
Would things have been any different?
I thought about it for a while, but the answer she gave was ‘No.’ Unless you get help from a silver weapon or divine power, nothing will change even if you have Sven.
‘Yes, it’s better not to have anything.’
Then at least Sven will be safe.
With these thoughts in mind, I was staring blankly at the approaching death.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
With a sudden roar, the undead who were trying to enter the inner sanctuary flew away noisily.
“… … uh?”
A completely unexpected surprise.
Milena and the soldiers looked around in bewilderment, and soon discovered a group of troops appearing from the south.
“That… … !”
About a hundred troops.
Mounted on horses and armed with pure white armor and shields, they looked like knights.
Subsequently, additional people were seen wearing black priestly uniforms. The moment she discovered this, Milena figured out their identity.
“Eh, the Holy Knights of Eloden?”
“Why are the Holy Knights here… … .”
The soldiers clearly looked embarrassed.
However, I couldn’t remain embarrassed forever. After finishing a short prayer, the Holy Knights immediately kicked off the ground and headed to the battlefield.
And the moment I saw this.
Milena and the soldiers, who had been half-resigned, realized what they had to do right away.
“Hold your shield! “Don’t back down!”
“Don’t let anyone in!”
The appearance of unexpected reinforcements.
With the joining of the Paladins, the battlefield of Schulfern entered a new phase.
