Chapter 430

Chapter 430. Now It’s a Real Triangular Pyramid Shape. (2)

“By the way.”

“What is it?”

“The more I think about it, the more I realize what a fantastically timed opportunity this is.”

“Huh?”

If the users currently in Spiralus were from the Central Zone, my current position after deploying would’ve looked pretty weird.

Maybe reactions like, “That ranker guy is being petty, screwing over users from the same zone just to save himself?” would’ve popped up.

Who knows if I’d have ended up dealing with unnecessary nonsense from those weirdos.

But right now, with that Level 5 stronghold being controlled by a clan from another zone made up of users from another zone…

At least the users from the Central Zone wouldn’t be able to throw baseless accusations at me.

And so, with about 500 mercenary groups mindlessly charging in, I simultaneously launched a full-scale offensive using the main fleet’s Kraken and other ships.

At the same time, I planned to carry out long-range attacks with Hreðsvelgr and Ouroboros.

Of course, it seemed like the enemy wasn’t about to just give up the Level 5 stronghold they’d worked so hard to secure.

The “White Snake” clan, which had taken over Spiralus, was trying to use the stronghold itself as a shield to continue their resistance.

But no matter how hard they tried to hold on…

-“Commander, the enemy battleship is obscured by Spiralus’ external structures and can’t be detected.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve used this. Teleport Hreðsvelgr’s strategic missile using the Kraken. Nerañzara is already sending all the coordinate data anyway.”

-“Understood.”

-“Kraken, prepare for teleportation!”

-“Hehahaat♡”

In the front, there was a barrage of high-powered artillery fire led by Ouroboros and Pashtira.

From the back, the Kraken and Hreðsvelgr’s “Ultimate One-Shot Teleportation Spear” was being thrust into the fray.

As for enduring this bombardment and somehow charging forward…

-“Enemy fleet rapidly approaching!”

-“Time to work, you mercenaries!!”

-“Waaaaah!!!”

-“Uwaaah!”

My main fleet and various warships and carriers were positioned right in front, with about 300,000 mercenary ships thoroughly prepared for defense.

But did they just sit still?

-“Wipe them all out!”

-“Waaah!”

-“For the Savior, for salvation!”

-“Uooooo!”

And then, with my superhumans leading the charge, the mercenary captains and assault units started causing chaos…

About 3 hours later.

‘Grin.’

As a result of the “White Snake” clan surrendering after failing to withstand my full-scale offensive, I was able to secure my third Level 5 stronghold and my fourth overall.

And as soon as my annihilation battle ended…

As everyone expected, Icarus showed up nearby and devoured it like a beast.

Lastly…

The White Snake Clan, which had been munching away, tried to resist somehow, but with only about 300 members, when Icarus brought in a mercenary fleet of 300,000 ships, they just got steamrolled.

Comments:

– “He is the king of the center~”

– “Did they just fight among themselves and blow up all the defense facilities, so Icarus took over?”

– “Of course, duh. If the main fleet and user fleet were together, it wouldn’t have been so easy to break through.”

– “Wow, now they’re just gobbling up bases like snacks.”

—————————————–

In the gallery, a high-nick user who had been posting about Spiralus revealed that I had taken over a new level 5 base.

And when this fact came to light in the gallery…

Title: Let’s go for the 7th takeover~

No defensive troops, same as always.

Mercenaries won’t last long anyway.

Let’s go now, gogogogogo~

Comments:

– “Oh.”

– “Makes sense.”

– “LOL, as expected of the jokers, they’re already planning a physical takedown.”

—————————————–

As always, with the jokers in the gallery stirring things up, user fleets around the Spiralus Research Institute, which had its defense facilities and fleet completely wiped out, started to slowly show up.

But unlike the other users I’ve taken over before, I had a plan.

—————————————–

<Base Guard Fleet Movement Order>

<Avalon Fortress - 3 Guard Fleets, 3 Combat Fleets ⇒ Spiralus Research Institute>

<Barracuda Supply Base - 5 Guard Fleets, 2 Combat Fleets ⇒ Spiralus Research Institute>

<Tanhoizer Gate Fortress - 5 Guard Fleets, 2 Combat Fleets ⇒ Spiralus Research Institute>

<Time remaining until movement completion: 13 minutes 22 seconds>

—————————————–

Thanks to the internal gate network, I could call in fleets from three bases to defend this place at any time.

So, I first called in a total of 20 fleets from three bases, then blurred out the exact fleet numbers and posted it in the gallery as a warning.

Comments:

– “LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL”

– “Dropping a level 7 combat fleet on a level 5 base is just evil.”

– “LOL, if the owner says so, what can you do?”

– “The jokers who were planning to sneakily take Spiralus and brag about being level 5 base owners are now getting a reverse attack~”

– “LOL”

—————————————–

But at this very moment, I realized something new.

The location of the Spiralus I took over was slightly apart from the other bases, almost right above the existing Triangle Zone.

Thanks to this, if I connected my bases, it would form a small(?) triangular pyramid.

But there’s no way I was the only one who noticed this.

Title: Yo, isn’t it now the Icarus Triangular Pyramid Zone instead of the Triangle Zone?

Author: ㅇㅇ

Content: [A picture of the bases Icarus took over connected by lines.jpg]

Isn’t the space inside now a truly safe zone?

With fleets from 4 bases patrolling, and the Leviathan Fleet and Icarus Fleet stationed there all the time.

Comments:

– “Huh?”

– “Oh, true.”

– “The only safe zone in the chaotic Central Zoneㄷㄷㄷㄷ”

– “Wait, thinking about it, that’s actually true?”

– “LOL, hold up, WTF”

—————————————–

As this fact became known to the users, for some reason, the situation started spiraling out of control in an unpredictable direction.
