17.決行その2
さて、昨日のうちに準備した詰め所の仕掛けが発動したところで私も行きましょう。
目指すは貴族街の中心地の領主館です。そこまで走り抜けましょう。
「っ! そこの君! 止まり――――」
「っふ! 」
こちらに静止を呼びかけようとした貴族街と下町を隔てる門の番兵へ向けてガラス片を投擲、喉を刺し貫き殺します。
その後に火薬玉Lv.4(単純に威力上げただけ)を門へ思いっきり振りかぶって投げます。
...........................ちょっと火薬の量か多すぎましたかね? 門だけでなくその周辺まで吹っ飛んじゃいました............確かアレはこういう時にするんでしたか?
「............て、テヘペロ」
..................自分でしておいてなんですが寒気しかしません、もう二度とやりません。
それよりも交通性が上がったので走り抜けましょう。
「アァ〜、まだ納得いかねぇよぉ〜」
「......ハンネスまたか? 」
ボヤく俺にラインが声を掛けてくる、その声色には呆れが多分に混じっているが仕方のないことだろう。
』ってよ! そんなふざけたパーティー名の奴らに初攻略取られたんだぜ!? 」
「確かに悔しいがもう半月ぐらい前だろ? 」
「そうだが......クソっ! あの野郎にあそこで殺られてなけりゃ......」
確かに街の北に最終的には逃げたとは聞いたが......普通未攻略エリアに初心者がソロで突っ込むか?
そのおかげで全く知らねぇ奴らに先を越されちまった、ハロルドのところのパーティーならまだ納得できるのに!!
「反省会の途中でワールドアナウンスが流れた時、あなたすごいショック受けてたものね......」
「しかもなんだよジェノサイダーちゃんって......ありゃそんな可愛いもんじゃねぇよ」
公式掲示板じゃ専用スレまで作られてるし、模倣犯は続出するし......まぁ、どれもすぐに鎮圧されるんだがな。
衛兵の見廻りの数が初日と段違いだし、なによりアイツに比べてみんなクソ弱ぇ......。
「あれから姿も見せないし、なにしてるんだろうな! 」
ケリンがそんな気楽な調子で言う......本当になにしてんだろうな? どうせ碌でもないこと企んでるんだろ? 見つけたら絶対に――――
ドオォォーーーーーン!!!
「な、なんだ?! 」
いきなりどデカい爆発音がしたと思ったら、あちこちで断続的に響きやがる。
「急げ! 複数の詰め所が襲撃を受けた! 」
「ここ以外も襲われてるのか?! 」
目の前を焦った様子のNPCの衛兵たちが掛けていく、これは............。
「......気のせいかな、私こんな光景を最近見た気がする」
「......同意」
チェリーとミラがそんな会話を交わしてからそんなに間をおかず――――
――――特大の爆破音が貴族街の方から響いてきやがる......あぁ、間違いない。こういう時の俺の勘はよく当たるんだ、おそらく貴族街が本命でそこに――――
「ハンネス、まさかこれって......」
「あぁ、間違いない......行くぞ! おめぇら! 俺たちのリベンジマッチだ!! 」
「これで終わりですかね? 」
ついさっきまで相手をしていた兵士の方の死体を蹴り転がしてどける......と言っても兵士の死体ばかりで地面が見えないほどなので、あんまり意味はないですけどね。
「例の指名手配犯だ......」
「この女が?! 」
残りの兵士さんはいち、にぃ、さん............14人程度ですか、最初の頃はそれこそゴキブリのように湧いて出てきたというのに。
残りの彼らも遠巻きにこちらを窺うばかりで何もしてきません。
「やっぱり兵隊さんだけあって鍛えてますね、筋肉の量がすごいです、繊維がビローンってなります」
こんな所までリアルなんですね? というか常々思ってますが、このゲームは所謂ゲーム的処理が少ない気がします。
戦闘中でもドロップしたわけでもないのに相手の武器を奪って使えますし、死体だって使えるし、NPCも人間と同程度で思考してる感じですしねぇ。
「お前ぇ?!! 」
おや、何もしてこないのでそこらの兵士を解体しながら人間爆弾を作っていたら突っ込んできました。なにやら怒っているようです?
まぁ丁度いいので完成したばかりの人間爆弾その1を投擲して爆破しておきましょう。
ドォーーーーンッ!!
..................ボウリングのピンのように吹っ飛んでいきましたね、少し爽快な気分です。
「さて、残りを担いで先を――――」
「《熱線》! 」
「キラーショット! 」
――――急ごうとしたら邪魔が入りましたね......麻布さんが咄嗟に《風壁》で防いでくれて助かりました。
あれ? この方たちどこかで見たような......?
「? どこかで会いました? 」
「っ! 野郎ォ......」
「ハンネス、挑発に乗るな」
新しい兵士さんか騎士の方かと思ったんですがどうやら違うようです。というより、どこかで会った気がするんですけど思い出せませんね......。
「......まぁ、戦ってるうちに思い出すでしょう」
そう結論付けて人間爆弾その2とその3を投げます。
「《聖壁》」
まぁ防がれますよね、知ってました。本命は目くらましです。
「ハッ! 」
お? 投擲したガラス片と共に突きを防がれましたよ? おそらくこの方たちはプレイヤーですね......NPCの兵士よりも楽しめそうです。
「半月前の俺たちじゃねぇぞ! 」
「......半月前? 」
「.........本当に覚えてないのか? 」
「残念ながら......」
「ぶっ殺す!! 」
知り合いのようですが覚えていません。彼が怒るのも無理ないですね、反省です。
「残酷だわ......」
「そうですね、さすがに可哀想です......」
「同意」
袈裟斬りに振るわれる斧を身体を反らして躱しながら、背後から迫る槍使いに向けて脇下からガラス片を投擲。
後ろで軽い金属音が鳴り足止めに成功したことを確認すると、すぐさま斧使いの横を通り抜け後衛を狙いますが――――剣士の振るう長剣が迫っていますのでこれを棒高跳びのように躱しながら、弓使いがたった今放った矢を火薬玉を投擲して相殺すると共に目くらまし、魔術師のお姉さんの狙いを外します。
「くっ! キャンセル! 」
上手くいったようでなによりです。視界が悪い状態で魔法を放ったら、近くにいる剣士と私の背後にいる斧使いに当たる可能性がありますからね。
すぐそこまで迫っていた槍を短刀の柄でかち上げ、懐に潜ると同時に長剣による薙ぎ払いから逃れます。
そのまま槍使いの喉か心臓を狙いますが、斜め下より斧が振るわれるのでキャンセル、槍使いの足首を引っ掛け転ばせるに留めます。
槍使いに当たるのを恐れて無理やり斧の軌道修正をして姿勢が不安定な斧使いにガラス片を投擲しますが、途中で迫ってきた剣士に邪魔され狙いがおぼつきませんでした。
斧使い自身も意地なのか無理に身をよじって、肩に刺さるだけの結果に終わりましたね。
前衛に包囲されかけていたので、起き上がろうとした槍使いを踏み台にして跳躍。そのまま剣士の頭上を飛び越えながら、後衛に牽制の火薬玉をまたプレゼントしましょう。
「《炎槍》! 」
「《小癒》! 」
魔法で相殺され斧使いと槍使いに回復が飛びましたね、やはりヒーラーから先に潰しておくべきですか......。
「おい、ハンネスのパーティーがジェノサイダーちゃんと戦ってるぞ! 」
「マジか、俺らも加勢すんぞ! 」
「祭りの時間だぁー! 」
攻防を続けているうちに他のプレイヤーが増えてきましたね............好都合です。
Chapter 17 Carry Out 2
Now then, let's start moving as the devices that I had prepared at the guard stations have just activated.
The target is the lord's manor at the center of the noble district. Let's keep running until I reach there.
Guard: "!! You there! Stop---"
Rena: "Fuh!"
I threw a piece of glass towards the gatekeeper who was guarding the gate which separates the noble district and downtown area while standing still and calling out to me. The glass pierced his throat and killed him.
Then, I threw an Explosives Ball Lv. 4 (simply raised its power) at the gate with my utmost effort.
..................Did I put a bit too much of gunpowder? Not only the gate but the surrounding area was blown off as well..... If I remember correctly, there's {That}  for such a time, yes?
Rena: "......Te...Tehepero."
.....I did it just like what I had imagined but it only gave me the shivers. I will never do that again.
In any case, more and more people are coming this way so let's run through.
Hannes: "Aaah~ I'm still not convinced~"
Ryne: "...Hannes, again with this?"
Ryne replied to my grumbling with a voice mixed with perhaps a disgusted tone, though it might be something that's inevitable.
Hannes: "But, it was {Rena and Her Servants} ! The dungeon was captured for the first time by the people who have that kind of ridiculous party name, you know!?"
Ryne: "It's really a shame, but it was half a month ago, you know?"
Hannes: "Yeah...but...shit! If we weren't killed by that bastard..."
Certainly I heard that she was last seen fleeing to the city on the north... but, can a beginner go solo the unexplored area normally?
Thanks to that, the people who are complete strangers, went ahead of us. Even though I could still be convinced if it was Harold's party and the others!!
Ryne: "Yeah, you were really shocked when you heard that world announcement in the middle of our review meeting..."
Hannes: "Moreover, what's up with that {Genocider-chan} ...!? That bastard is not cute at all."
It has even been made to be an exclusive thread as well at the Official Bulletin Board, and some copycat criminals are appearing one after another... Well, all of them will be subjugated immediately, though.
The number of palace guards is widely different than on the first day, and above all, those guys are so damn weak compared to her...
Kellin: "We haven't seen her figure since then, what do you guys think she's doing now!?"
Kellin said so in such a carefree tone... Yeah really, what is she doing right now? At any rate, she's probably scheming something that's not going to be good, right? If I find her, I will absolutely---
DOOOOOOOOON!!!
Hannes: "W-what happened?!"
When I thought that I heard a sudden loud explosion, the sound continued reverberating here and there.
Guard A: "Hurry! Several guard stations have been attacked!"
Guard C: "Are they attacking the other guard station?!"
The NPC guards looked in a hurry and didn't even try to hide it.
Cherry: "...I think I have seen this kind of spectacle recently or is it just my imagination...?"
Myra: "...Agree."
It's been a while since Cherry and Myra have such a conversation---
------A huge blast sound came from the noble district... Yeah, no doubt. My intuition has hit the mark at time like this, I dare say that the noble district is where the main target is---
Ryne: "Hannes, don't tell me, this is..."
Hannes: "Yeah, no doubt... Let's go guys!! It's time for our revenge match!!"
Rena: "With this, it's over, yes?"
I kicked and tipped over the corpse of a soldier who was my opponent until a while ago......though, even if I said so, the ground around me cannot be seen anymore as a lot of soldier corpses are lying here and there. Hence, there's no meaning for what I did.
Guard E: "She's that wanted criminal..."
Guard D: "This girl?!"
The remaining soldiers are one, two, three......... Even though they came out like cockroaches at first, it's now only 14 people, huh?
The rest of them also haven't done anything and just examining the situation from a distance.
Rena: "As expected from a trained soldier, yes? The amount of muscle and its fibers are great."
It's realistic even to such a place, I see? Though, I always feel like this game has only a few so-called game-like processing in it.
Even though they didn't drop anything while in battle, I can still steal and use my opponent's weapons. I can even use their corpses as well, and I feel like the NPCs are thinking much like human beings.
Guard F: "YOUU?!!"
Oya? They did not do anything while I was dissecting the soldiers around the vicinity, so I tried making a human bomb. However, when I was still making it, someone tried rushing at me. He seems to be angry, yes?
Well, the timing is perfect so let's throw the first human bomb which has just been completed and blow it up.
DOOOOOOONN!!
..........They were blown off like bowling pins, yes?
Rena: "Now then, let's take in the rest and go---"
Eleanor: "<<Heat Ray>> !"
Myra: "Killer Shot!"
------Some nuisances got in the way when I tried to make haste, I see... Azabu-san immediately casted <<Wind Wall>>  and saved me.
Huh? Have I seen them somewhere before...?
Rena: "? Did we meet somewhere before?"
Hannes: "!! Bastard...."
Ryne: "Hannes, don't get provoked by her."
I thought they are another soldiers or knights but it seems to be different. In fact, I feel like I have met them somewhere, but I can't seem to remember anything...
Rena: "...Well, I might remember it while we're fighting."
I reached to that conclusion and threw the second and third human bombs.
Cherry: "<<Holy Wall>> "
I already know that they will defend against those as the true purpose of those are merely a distraction.
Hannes: "Ha!!"
Oh? They could defend against my thrust alongside the glass piece that I have thrown? These people are perhaps players, yes?...... They're more fun than NPC soldiers.
Hannes: "We're not what we used to be half a month ago now!"
Rena: "...Half a month ago?"
Hannes: "...Do you really not remember?"
Rena: "Unfortunately......"
Hannes: "I will fucking kill you!!"
We seemed to be acquainted somehow, but I do not remember anything. It's natural for him to be angry, yes?
Kellin: "How cruel..."
Cherry: "Yeah, it's pitiful indeed..."
Myra: "Agree."
While dodging the axe that was swung diagonally, I threw a glass piece from the flank towards the spear-user who was approaching from behind.
When I confirmed that a light metal sound has successfully rung, I immediately went through the axe user's side and aimed at the rear guard but---While I was dodging the long sword from the swordsman that was drawing near with a jump similar to pole vaulting, I blocked the arrow that was just shot by the archer using an explosive ball which created a smoke screen and made the mage-oneesan lost sight of me.
Eleanor: "Kh!! Cancel!"
It's wonderful that she can judge well. If she casted the magic with poor visibility, she could hit the nearby swordsman and the axe-user behind me.
I dodged the approaching spear with the dagger's haft immediately and aimed for the spear-user's chest as well as evading the long sword at the same time.
I was trying to aim at his throat or heart as it is, but I cancelled it as an axe had been swung from below diagonally. Thus, I trapped the spear-user's ankle and made him fall over.
The axe-user was afraid to hit the spear-user and forced to change his axe's trajectory. I threw a piece of glass at him who was in an unstable posture, however it was obstructed by the approaching swordsman and the glass didn't kill my target.
And because of perhaps the axe-user's willpower as well, he twisted his body forcefully and as a result, the glass piece only pierced his shoulder.
Let's restrain the rear guard again with explosive balls while jumping over the swordsman's head.
Eleanor: "<<Flame Lance>> !"
Cherry: "<<Small Heal>> !"
They managed to block them all with magic and heal the spear-user and axe-user, I see?
Player A: "Oi! Hannes' party is fighting with Genocider-chan!"
Player B: "Seriously!? We will assist them too!"
Player C: "It's festival timeeee!!"
More and more players are coming while we continued exchanging offense and defense, I see....
